At the beginning of 2008, Shanghai TV was not outstanding in the field of variety shows.
The most impressive ones are the talent shows. "My Style My Show" and "Go Man" are still quite influential in China.
In addition, there is also the celebrity dance competition "Dancing with the Stars" which is pretty good.
The champion, runner-up and third place winners of the first season in 2006 were Jie Xiaodong, Ai Dai and Hu Jing, who was very popular at the time with the drama "The Harems of Qing Dynasty".
But not many people can remember these people. Instead, the later judge Jin Xing became famous because of this and successfully entered the television industry.
The reason why Wei Yang wanted to be on Hunan Satellite TV was not only because of the audience, but also because the supporting variety show was popular enough.
Especially "Happy Camp", no matter how many people criticize it in the future, but in this era, it is indeed the king of domestic variety shows, and its ratings and influence have always topped the list.
Being able to appear on "Happy Camp" will bring great benefits to both the TV series and the artists themselves.
Of course, Wei Yang was not picky at this time. He would just go on whatever was available and it was good enough if he could show his face. Even if the variety show strength of Shanghai Satellite TV was not very good, it was still a first-tier TV station and it would still be of some use.
"New Entertainment in Magic City" is the variety show in which the crew of "The Best of Us" participated.
This program focuses on entertainment information and has two sub-columns: "Entertainment Star World" and "New Entertainment Online".
The former mainly reports on entertainment news and conducts short interviews, while the latter, in addition to the first two items, also randomly conducts some program interviews or interviews with special persons.
Frankly speaking, "New Entertainment in Shanghai" can be regarded as the daily ace variety show of Shanghai Satellite TV.
They were able to invite Wei Yang and several other main creators to the station for interviews and asked for a lot of footage. I heard they also sent people to do road interviews and were preparing to do a special report on "The Best of Us". It can be seen that Shanghai Satellite TV attaches great importance to "The Best of Us".
New Entertainment Online, Studio
Yang Rong and Cui Peng have participated in variety shows before, but Wei Yang has received many interviews, but this is the first time in his life that he has participated in a variety show.
There's no way, no one will ask a screenwriter to appear on a variety show, so it's good enough to have a few interviews.
Although he is a rookie, Wei Yang has seen many ups and downs. Although he occasionally looks at the layout of the recording studio out of curiosity, he remains calm overall.
This made Yang Rong, who was standing by, a little disappointed. She was used to seeing Wei Yang being calm and composed, so she really wanted to see Wei Yang being a little embarrassed.
She didn't mean any harm, she was just curious about whether the mature Wei Yang had ever been afraid. She was even prepared to smooth things over and comfort Wei Yang, and let Wei Yang know that she didn't call her "sister" for nothing.
Unexpectedly, Wei Yang was still in that unhurried attitude. Seeing that she kept looking at him, he comforted Yang Rong instead.
"Are you nervous? It's okay. If you really can't help it, I can help you hold it up."
Yang Rong: “…”
She really couldn't understand why Wei Yang wasn't panicking at all when it was her first time participating in a variety show and her palms were sweating from nervousness.
"Aren't you afraid?"
"What are you afraid of?"
Wei Yang was puzzled. There were only a few people in the studio, the host was not a cannibal, and the procedures were already set. What was there to be afraid of?
Yang Rong was silent. That being said, when one really sits in front of the camera, one always has a lot of concerns. Most people don't have as good an attitude as Wei Yang.
"You are born to be an artist!"
"Perhaps."
Wei Yang did not take Yang Rong's words seriously. He had lived two lifetimes as a human being, and if his mentality was still that of a young man, then he would have lived in vain.
The two chatted idly. Now the host and the program crew were recording entertainment information. It was unknown how long it would take for their interview to be recorded.
Since the production team arranged for them to wait on the spot, they didn't dare to walk around and they were not given any chairs, so they could only stand and wait.
Now is the most powerful time for TV stations, and many big-name stars dare not put on airs on TV easily.
Wei Yang and the others were fine, but Yang Rong couldn't help but feel sore legs and feet after wearing high heels for a long time.
"It's not our turn yet."
Yang Rong raised her foot and complained. Cui Peng advised: "Be patient, it should be over soon."
Wei Yang didn't say anything. He turned around and saw a few staff members slacking off in the corner of the scene. He secretly approached the crowd. Facing everyone's vigilance, he smiled and passed a circle of cigarettes.
"Teachers, I want to know what time we have dinner."
"Hungry?"
"Hey, I didn't have time to eat this morning."
"I have a piece of bread here, you can eat it."
"Oh, thank you so much. Hey, brother, judging from your accent... you are from Shandong Province, right?"
"I'm from Quancheng."

"It's fate, brother. We are from the same hometown."
“…”
When Yang Rong and Cui Peng discovered that Wei Yang was missing and looked for him everywhere, they saw Wei Yang chatting animatedly with several staff members. After a while, he even left the scene while talking and laughing with one of them.
After about five or six minutes, Wei Yang came back and took Yang Rong and Cui Peng directly to a lounge.
"Take a break first. Here is tea and coffee. Someone will call us when we start recording the show."
Yang Rong was stunned and asked blankly: "How did you do it?"
"Hey, there's a fellow from Shandong province working as an assistant director here. He's a very kind person. As soon as I told him about it, he immediately helped me arrange a lounge."
Wei Yangfeng was calm and composed, and Yang Rong and Cui Peng were immediately convinced.
When they were still filming, they knew that Wei Yang was popular in the crew, but at that time they thought it was more because of his identity as a screenwriter and producer.
But now it seems that, regardless of his identity, Wei Yang's communication skills are also top-notch.
At least the two of them could never do this. Even though Cui Peng himself was from Quancheng, Shandong Province, he couldn't guarantee that he could recognize this fellow villager.
"With your ability, if I throw you abroad one day, without being able to speak the language, I doubt you can find any relatives back."
Yang Rong praised Wei Yang's communication skills. Wei Yang half-lay on the sofa comfortably and pouted at the water dispenser next to him.
"If you have the time to be so rude, why don't you just pour me a cup of coffee with sugar and milk?"
"You are so capable, you are ordering me around."
Yang Rong was so angry that she slapped him, but she still stood up honestly and made him a cup of coffee.
"There's no milk, only sugar. You can drink it with whatever you have."
Wei Yang was not picky and slowly drank a few sips of coffee. It was the most common instant coffee and the taste was nothing special.
However, he and Xiao Zhao worked too late last night, so they were inevitably a little sleepy at noon. Drinking some coffee could help them wake up.
Yang Rong also poured himself a cup. Cui Peng thought he could drink the ready-made drink like Wei Yang, but when he saw Yang Rong poured himself a cup and sat down, he could only get up and make it himself.
Seeing this, Wei Yang smiled at Yang Rong, who rolled his eyes at him and pretended to taste the tasteless instant coffee...
