The day I got married with a big star

Chapter 508 New Program Ideas
Lu Hong stared intently at the young man beside him. Seeing the young man in deep thought, he knew that his proposal had already moved him.

In order to stimulate the other party's enthusiasm for work, he also showed enough sincerity this time. You must know that star variety shows have always been the key projects of various TV stations. They are not only the key to attracting viewers, but also a major source of income. It goes without saying that not everyone can be the chief director.

Fortunately, he is now the deputy editor-in-chief of Beijing TV Station, so he can personally decide this matter, not to mention that the young people around him are now the deputy director of the art program center, and have participated in the planning of star variety shows and New Year's Gala. Experienced, I believe no one will object.

"Don't rush to answer, go back and think about it carefully. I also know that you still have two programs in your hands, but you should be very clear about which one is more important." Lu Hong patted Xu Jie on the shoulder.

The second season of "Crossover Actor" will start after the Lantern Festival. In order to maintain the high standard of the first season, the production team will still use the original crew, so he is not in a hurry for Xu Jie's answer.

"Xiao Xu, you're lucky. Do you know how long it took me to become the director of a variety show? It's been 15 years!" Jiang Hai sighed.

He is hinting to the other party that when the opportunity comes, one must seize it, otherwise the next time will have to wait for many years.

As the old saying goes, you have to be famous as early as possible.

The better the reputation, the more opportunities there will be, and these opportunities will eventually be written into the resume and become the capital for the evaluation of the advanced and the excellent, as well as promotion and salary increase.

Xu Jie understood what Director Jiang meant.

In fact, if Director Jiang and Deputy Editor-in-Chief Lu hadn't given him a chance, and he had seized the opportunity, would it have been his turn to be the deputy director?

You should know that among the three candidates, he is the youngest and the one who has spent the shortest time in the art program center.

And this is his first year as a new official, so he really should come up with something to enhance his prestige in the center of cultural and artistic programs, as well as his influence in the TV and entertainment circles.

Everything that has been done before has become a thing of the past. A person cannot live on his laurels all the time. Now he needs to hand over a new report card.

"Give me some time, I'll go back and think about the new variety show." Xu Jie looked at Deputy Editor-in-Chief Lu and Director Jiang and said.

The year has passed, and it is time to reinvest in the work. The deputy director is not his end, but a starting point. There is still a long way to go. How can he slow down because of a little achievement? What about footsteps?
Lu Hong and Jiang Hai were overjoyed when they heard it. The other party's words were equivalent to agreeing to take over the task of the new variety show. With Xiao Xu's joining, they could relax a bit.

"Okay, go back and think about it. The new variety show is expected to be launched in the second half of the year. Don't worry, just think about it slowly." Lu Hong said with a smile.

Today's trip to the Art Center was not in vain. Not only did someone take over the new variety show, but even the production problem of the second season of "Crossover Actors" was resolved.

perfect!

Xu Jie got up and left the director's office.

"Do you think Xiao Xu can handle the new variety show?" Jiang Hai asked, turning his head to look at Lu Hong beside him, feeling guilty as well as happy.

Launching a new variety show should have been a matter of brainstorming and discussion, but it turned out to be Xu Jie's work alone.

The other party has contributed many high-rated programs to the TV station, and now he has to add burdens to the other party, isn't it a bit of a bully?
Jiang Hai began to regret it a bit. The burden can't be put on only one person, just like you can't squeeze wool on a sheep. If you put people down, who can take Xiao Xu's place?nobody!

"I don't know if it will work or not, but with Xiao Xu, it can be regarded as an extra layer of insurance. We can't stop discussing the new variety show here, and we will use two prongs." Lu Hong said after hearing this.

For such an uncertain matter, he would not bet all his treasures on one person. The reason why he brought Xiao Xu in was to make himself more at ease, after all, the other party was his lucky general.

"Oh!"

Jiang Hai nodded, and he felt relieved after hearing what Lao Lu said.

"By the way, let him be the chief director, do you really want to do it, or is it just to motivate him?" Jiang Hai asked again, but the other party had never mentioned this matter to him.

"Why, do you think I'm joking? I'm very serious." Lu Hong took a sip of tea, and then said, "Actually, I had such an idea last year, but I was a little worried about whether he would be competent, but after the New Year's party After this incident, the worry disappeared."

Jiang Hai was taken aback when he heard it, and then nodded in agreement.

Although Xiao Xu is nominally the planner of the New Year's party, in fact he has been exercising the power of director, whether it is planning, rehearsal, or finding actors, all are handled by the other party.

In the end, he even temporarily rescued the scene to act as the leading actor of the party. Everything showed that the other party did have the ability to direct large-scale programs.

You must know that the New Year's party lasted more than four hours, and it was broadcast live. The other party can even direct such a large-scale event, let alone a variety show.

A celebrity variety show lasted only one and a half hours, and it was recorded and broadcast. In comparison, it was not too easy.

"That's good." Jiang Hai said.

He was worried that Lao Lu was drawing big cakes for Xiao Xu. If he didn't fulfill it in the future, wouldn't Xiao Xu be very disappointed?
As Xiao Xu's immediate superior, he resolutely does not allow such a thing to happen.

There is work to be done, but the interests of his subordinates must also be safeguarded, otherwise who will work for him in the future?
"Lao Jiang, don't talk about Xiao Xu, let's talk about you. Since you have done the research, tell me what kind of variety show you prefer." Lu Hong looked at Jiang Hai and said, he came to the art program center today, just In order to discuss this matter, being able to persuade Xu Jie was just a windfall.

Jiang Hai thought for a while, then pointed to the laptop screen and said, "Last year, audiences were more inclined towards life documentary programs. Finding a few celebrities to go to the countryside to feed chickens, raise ducks, and chat will make them popular, so I personally prefer these types of programs, but I didn’t think about the specific content.”

Lu Hong asked: "Life documentary? The direction is good. We already have competition variety shows like "Crossover Actors". We really need a life documentary program to relax the audience's spirit..."

……

Xu Jie was on his way to the post-editing room, thinking about the new variety show while walking.

In fact, when the variety show "Crossover Actors" was first proposed, it was a complete accident. It was just a casual remark. I didn't expect Deputy Editor-in-Chief Lu and Director Jiang to take it seriously.

Inspiration is usually just an unintentional thought, but now let him concentrate on thinking about it, but he has no clue.

It seems that I have to watch more star variety shows recently, maybe I can find some inspiration from them.

In the editing room, Xu Jie told everyone the ratings of "The Temptation of Going Home" broadcast last night. After hearing this, everyone shouted excitedly, just like a primate courtship scene.

Xu Jie checked the production progress of the program, and everything was proceeding as expected.

He found that since returning from group shooting, the abilities of the team members seemed to have been greatly improved, and they relied less and less on him.

It seems that after the filming of "The Temptation of Going Home", everyone can be alone.

This is a good thing for him, and he can be more leisurely at ordinary times.

Xu Jie found a chair and sat down, then took out his mobile phone to check several variety shows launched by other TV stations last year.

"Director Xu, what are you watching?" Song Huanhuan suddenly appeared from behind, saw the program playing on Director Xu's phone, and asked curiously, "I never thought you would like to watch "Longing for Life."

"Just look at it, it was very popular last year." Xu Jie said.

"Hehe, in the name of life documentary, there are scripts that escape reality. I still don't understand why this kind of program is popular." Song Huanhuan said after hearing it.

Xiao Wei, who is in the post-production stage, turned her head and said: "That's because the current urban life is too stressful, and everyone is looking forward to a leisurely and carefree country life. I really like watching this show."

"It seems that the pressure of rural life is not great." Zhang Jiao said at this time: "Have you ever been to our village? There are mountains and rivers, no worse than the scenes in the show. How did the results go? Go up the mountain to pick fruits, go down to the fields to sell, You have to look at the sky and the earth, and you have to look at people's faces, and you'll lose a layer of skin all year round, and you won't see how much money you can make. Unless you are already financially free, don't think that living in the countryside will be better."

"That's right." Zhang Hua nodded and said, "Those who feel the pressure of life in the city mostly have high material requirements for life. Even if they go to the countryside, they will not be able to calm down because most of them The conditions in the countryside can’t satisfy their pursuit of material life, what’s shown on the TV programs is not called country life, that’s called country vacation life, how many villages do they live like that?”

"Watching this kind of program can't cure people, but it will make people more anxious when facing reality, and encourage escapism." Liu Jinbao said: "In my opinion, the best way to cure is to let this kind of people accept society. Let them know that the current happy life is hard-won, many people are more tired than them, and they do not earn as much as them, this is the positive energy of society."

Huh?
When Xu Jie heard this, his whole body shook suddenly, and his eyes lit up.

Right!

Most of the life documentary programs nowadays are either about healing or making chicken soup, but is such content really useful?Is it really useful for those who live a stressful life?

Perhaps when the audience sees the well-designed plot of the show, they will feel a little relaxed in their hearts. However, when they get up from bed the next day and continue their previous life, what they think of is to face it optimistically, or to find a country escape?

Seeing a group of celebrities go on vacation in the country, ordinary people will only envy and hate.

If these stars are allowed to accept the beatings of the society...

Xu Jie has an idea!

You all shoot the leisurely life, then I will do the opposite!
