Chapter 417 417. Challenge Gathering (Happy New Year!)
The girl's eyes were full of surprise. She had been looking in the direction of Nie Wei subconsciously, and it could even be called instinct. But she had never expected to receive such a surprising 'gift'.
The girl couldn't help but smile, and her smile was particularly brilliant.
This smile not only touched Nie Wei's heart, but also instantly fascinated the people who noticed it.
Huang Xiaoming's eyes were a little straight as he looked at Lin Yifei's smiling face at this time.
The uncle holding the clapperboard beside him didn't realize that the props he relied on for survival had fallen to the ground.
Even the makeup artist who was about to go forward to touch up the actor's makeup forgot his job at this moment.
The girl's heartfelt smile infected everyone at the scene, regardless of gender, age or young, and they were all killed by her charm at this time.
However, when everyone came to their senses, what they saw was the girl running towards the director with a smug expression on her face. The look on her face that was asking for praise was just like a puppy that had just done a good deed. If a tail was inserted, it would probably be shaken into a propeller.
The contrast is too strong. Is this still the goddess in my mind who is full of fairy spirit and can only be admired from afar?
Sure enough, some girls are not cold. They have a passionate partner, but this person is not you. Lin Yifei didn't know how many men's hearts were hurt at this moment. She trotted to Nie Wei and asked with a smile: "Did I act well?"
"Didn't you see that I gave a thumbs up?" Nie Wei raised his thumb again and gestured to Lin Yifei. The girl smiled and laughed non-stop.
Because she could see how sincere Nie Wei's praise was, and the girl was also a little proud of her performance.
While Lin Yifei was enjoying Nie Wei's praise, a group of people gathered in the lounge of a company in Kyoto.
Cheng Kun was one of them.
He came here naturally because of Nie Wei's recommendation. At this moment, his identity was a quasi-regular guest of a variety show called "Infinite Challenge".
The reason why there is a word "quasi" is because he has not yet gone through the final interview, but Cheng Kun is not worried about this, because Nie Wei has already promised him, so he basically knows the purpose of coming here, which is just to go through the motions.
Of course, even if he is a relative, Cheng Kun has made full preparations. After all, Nie Wei also said that this variety show is a good opportunity to whitewash himself, and he has learned about it in advance. He really thinks this variety show is very fresh and interesting. He has also studied in depth the "role setting" that Nie Wei told him, so among the five people present, he may be the most confident.
And a curly-haired boy sitting not far to Cheng Kun's left seems not as calm as Cheng Kun.
Speaking of which, he is not simple either. He participated in the "Challenge Host" held by Huaxia TV last year and won the annual championship in one fell swoop. After the program was revised, he was re-elected as the champion for nine consecutive issues. He can be called the super devil in this program.
He is very good at talk shows, his style is relaxed and humorous, and his reaction is very fast. The most important thing is that this guy is also very good at being a person, with high emotional intelligence. He can make jokes that are both humorous and know how to hold the right degree, and his hosting rhythm is also very good.
His name is Yuchi Linjia.
However, these advantages cannot be his confidence. After all, this is a program that is very different from the existing Chinese variety shows. There have been reality shows before, but they have never been played like this. Thinking about the content that Ma Dong talked about with him, he was surprised and confused when listening, because he was afraid that he would not do well.
But Ma Dong didn't think so. In his eyes, Yuchi Linjia is particularly suitable for the role setting of a small character who is cunning. He is an indispensable atmosphere regulator for the team. His position is not even less important than that of Ma Dong, the main controller. If Ma Dong is compared to a red flower, then Yuchi Linjia is the best supporting role he is optimistic about.
Sitting on the other side of Yuchi Linjia is a girl, Xie Na, who Nie Wei had talked about before when he went to Xiangnan TV.
She is now idle at home, her book has been published, and she has no job. When Nie Wei called, she came here immediately after hearing that the treatment was good.
In Nie Wei's opinion, Xie Na always felt that she couldn't show her strength in "Happy Camp", because she would unconsciously become serious when playing games, which would always make the audience feel that it was too much in this half-interview and half-game program.
After all, "Happy Camp" is a mode of interviewing guests. In each episode, some stars will come to promote movies, TV series, etc., and this is destined to make some viewers come for these stars, but Xie Na did not give in to these stars in the game, which is destined to give the audience who came for these stars a bad impression.
After all, in the eyes of the public, the host is often a foil, and the guest is the focus, and the host should give in to the guest.
This is also the reason why Xie Na's reputation is always mixed. Those who like her really like her, and those who don't like her really find it difficult to have a good impression of her.
But this style is perfect for reality shows.
Nie Wei had seen Xie Na guest-star in several competitive reality shows, some of which really left a deep impression on Nie Wei. For example, in a show called "Running Man", Xie Na actually hid under a stone bridge in order to win in the end. As there was no suitable foothold, she even needed to hold on to the edge of the stone bridge with her fingers to prevent herself from falling into the water.
Her hands were scratched for this, but the show's highlights also came out. Such a hard-fought victory naturally made the audience excited, and this scene also became one of the classic shots of this variety show.
Nie Wei wanted her desire to win. Reality shows are afraid that you will act too much. Only Xie Na, who dares to play and knows how to play, is the host the show needs.
Cheng Kun, Yuchi Linjia and Xie Na sat on one side, and opposite Xie Na was a man with long hair and dark skin.
His name is Ou Di.
This person was found from Taiwan. He once won the championship of the imitation competition and was also in an idol group. Although his appearance is not related to idols at all, he can't be an idol, but he is a very good comedian. After retiring from the army, he started hosting in Taiwan and became a little famous for his imitation ability.
This time, he was suddenly approached by a mainland variety show company. To be honest, Ou Di was really shocked, and of course he was a little complacent. He didn't expect that even mainland entertainment companies already knew my reputation.
Of course, these are purely his overthinking. If Nie Wei hadn't mentioned this person's name, Ma Dong would not have known that there was such a live treasure in Taiwan. However, after watching his video tape, Ma Dong really became interested in the person recommended by Nie Wei. This person is eloquent, knows how to admit defeat at critical moments, and is born with a dog-legged look. This is very suitable for his hosting team. He can form a partner with Yuchi Linjia.
The image of the person sitting next to Ou Di is much better. Although he is as dark as Ou Di, he is at least tall enough. Sitting there, he is a head taller than Ou Di next to him. His small eyes are shrewd and he looks pretty good. The most important thing is his sturdy body. He looks very powerful.
This person is also from Taiwan. His name is Chen Jianzhou, also known as Blackie. He used to be a basketball player, so his body is naturally tall and mighty.
These five are the regular guests that Ma Dong has invited. Some of them are here for the opportunity, some for the treatment, and some are fooled into coming here without knowing it. In short, they all have their own reasons, but the same thing is that they all want to be in this show.
The people present here can be said to be carefully selected by Ma Dong and the program team after discussion, but they don’t know it themselves. They think they are all competitors, so the atmosphere between them is obviously not harmonious. It seems that there is a transparent wall between them. They are obviously close to each other, but there is no interaction at all.
Such an atmosphere seems very dull. Fortunately, a staff member came to break the atmosphere soon. The first person to be called out was Cheng Kun.
After Cheng Kun left the room, Yuchi Linjia immediately whispered to Xie Na on the side: "Isn't he an actor? Why did he come to do a variety show?"
"I don't know." Xie Na answered straightforwardly, almost making Yuchi Linjia roll her eyes on the spot. Is this the answer I want? I just want to talk to you, sister, you blocked it with just one sentence.
Xie Na didn't notice anything at all, but she felt that the person next to her looked at her with a strange look. She didn't think much about it. Seeing that Yuchi Linjia didn't speak, she took the initiative to introduce herself: "My name is Xie Na, hello."
"Hello, hello, my name is Yuchi Linjia." Xie Na's words gave Yuchi Linjia the platform to continue. Taking this opportunity, he also introduced himself to the two compatriots from Taiwan opposite.
"My name is Ou Di, this is a black man."
"Brother, you two are dark enough, but this black brother, what did you do before, so strong."
"He is a basketball player, so tall, I don't want to sit next to him."
"I didn't ask you to do it."
Just when the four variety show people suddenly started chatting, Cheng Kun had already entered the interview room. In addition to the two staff members, there was only one interviewer, that is Ma Dong.
He also wanted to pull Nie Wei over, but Nie Wei directly pushed him away on the pretext of being busy with filming. Ma Dong had no choice but to give up because Nie Wei was the boss.
Although Nie Wei was not there, Ma Dong was well prepared and could handle these five guys.
"Hello, Cheng Kun, I'm Ma Dong." After Cheng Kun entered the room, Ma Dong took the lead in introducing himself. He knew that the handsome guy in front of him was just a passer-by on the show, and Nie Wei had already greeted him.
"Hello." Cheng Kun was very humble and polite.
After Cheng Kun sat down, Ma Dong began to ask: "If I give you a very unpalatable drink, would you be willing to drink it?"
"It depends on what it is, but as long as it doesn't harm your health, I think I'm willing to try it." Cheng Kun answered seriously, but he didn't expect that when he finished speaking, Ma Dong clapped his hands directly.
At first, Cheng Kun thought it was a compliment to himself, but when Ma Dong spoke, he knew he had misunderstood, and he didn't feel very good.
"Okay then, bring the juice up." Ma Dong's move came too suddenly and caught Cheng Kun off guard, but this was exactly the effect Ma Dong wanted. After studying reality shows for more than half a year, he almost thoroughly understood everything Nie Wei taught him, and he studied it even more deeply on his own.
The biggest feature of reality shows is the unexpectedness, because it is filmed outdoors, and there will always be various unexpected things. It is not like all the processes in the studio are designed and just follow the process. Although reality shows also have scripts, that is just an idea. The specific presentation still depends on the hosts. In this process, there will definitely be many uncertain human factors.
Now Ma Dong is testing Cheng Kun's adaptability to this new variety show. If he can't even drink a glass of juice that looks unpalatable, then Ma Dong really has to go to Nie Wei to talk about whether Cheng Kun should join the program group.
However, what surprised Ma Dong was that the disgust on Cheng Kun's face only flashed, and then his face calmed down, and then he saw him pick up the juice and drink it up without hesitation.
"I haven't said anything yet, and you drank it?"
"You still have time to say it now." Chen Kun replied calmly.
"I don't think it needs an introduction, but why didn't you react after drinking it? Don't you think this juice tastes bad?" Ma Dong was very surprised, and even picked up the cup that Cheng Kun had just drunk from and smelled it to confirm that the staff didn't take it by mistake, which made him even more surprised.
Although he knew that the cup of juice was not only harmless but also beneficial to the human body, he really couldn't praise the taste, because he had tasted it himself, otherwise he wouldn't take it out to disgust people, but Cheng Kun's performance made him, who had tried it personally, feel lost, and this reaction was very boring.
"I am an actor with an idol burden, and I can't show that it tastes bad under the camera." Cheng Kun pointed to the camera next to him and replied, but this made Ma Dong's eyes light up, and he immediately waved to the photographer and said, "Don't shoot it yet."
When the red indicator light of the camera went out, Cheng Kun's face suddenly became distorted, and then he exaggeratedly retched, and then kept asking for water from the staff next to him. This scene made Ma Dong laugh.
This guy seems to be very talented in variety shows. He said he was an idol and seemed to be indifferent, but behind the scenes he acted exaggeratedly. This contrast really made Ma Dong feel bright.
He was afraid that Cheng Kun had a burden in his heart and couldn't let it go and couldn't have fun. Now it seems to be good.
Cheng Kun had a good start, which made Ma Dong more interested in the next interview. Maybe Nie Wei really gave him a hidden variety show genius.
But what he didn't know was that Cheng Kun also breathed a sigh of relief at this moment. The skills taught by Nie Wei really came in handy.
Thanks to 0773 for the generous reward. Today is New Year's Eve and tomorrow is New Year's Day. I wish you all a happy new year in advance.
