CEE started with Nortel lecturers

Chapter 381 Feeling the three secular atmosphere of Bangkok

The schedule of "Operation Mekong" was extremely tight. Gu Zhongyu devoted himself to the training of actors as soon as he arrived. He also had to study the shooting plan with Lin Chaoxian. He was exhausted every day and was even more tired than when he participated in Running Man.

Unfortunately, Dudu's classmate was not around. Although he brought two assistants from the company to take care of his life, they were not good-looking and could only work as assistants, unable to take "all-round" care of Gu Zhongyu's physical and mental health.

It seems that I will have to recruit an assistant Sandaime next time I return to China.

Fortunately, Wang Zhi is still on the crew. When Gu Zhongyu goes back every day, he can see her preparing cold beer and Thai food waiting for him, and then... she is doing her best again!
MD is even more tired!
On this day, after walking out of the temporary office set up by the crew, Gu Zhongyu stood there and watched for a while.

It was the set decorator who was leading a group of people to set up the scene.

According to the crew's shooting schedule, they need to arrange the place into ruins before the seventh day of filming.

There are some differences between the ruins shown in the movie and the actual abandoned buildings. If you look carefully, most of the scenes in the movie are deliberately old-fashioned.

The set team had a lot of work to do besides here.

They also needed to build a small interrogation room and a well-traveled street.

Even Gu Zhongyu is just a gimmick for Running Man. In the previous life of Running Man, key members Deng Chao and Chen He left one after another, and it took more than ten seasons to film?

It’s not that it will affect the normal filming of the crew, but the key is that it will have a bad reputation if word spreads!
When brother Cheng Long was filming "Escape", his stand-in died unexpectedly, which immediately triggered protests from many human rights organizations!

Gu Zhongyu still didn't quite understand what Principal Wang wanted to say.

Gu Zhongyu took a look and saw that he was indeed very smart. Compared to some actors with dead fish eyes, Xiao Tian indeed had more talent as a professional actor!

"What happened?"

Running Man is indeed very popular. After only one episode was aired, the premiere ratings reached 3.8 percent, and it has already shown signs of becoming a phenomenal variety show.

The props team's job was easy. All they had to do was prepare the props according to the advice provided by the police. After all, the Mekong River case happened the year before last.

To give a very simple example, among the members of the brotherhood, Bai Lu, who was originally the most inconspicuous, has begun to receive more than a dozen endorsement invitations!
"Okay, I get it, what does that have to do with me? I've already quit!"

Commercial films always have explosion scenes. On the one hand, Lin Chaoxian requested to use real explosives as much as possible for the effects, but on the other hand, he also had to consider the safety of the personnel.

"Teacher Gu, have you checked Weibo?"

"Ignore them, they are just talking, how could you not read it!"

"Didn't you say at the end of the first issue that you were just here to make some fun? Many people said you left Running Man and they stopped watching!"

The entire crew was in good order, but Gu Zhongyu was most concerned about safety.

At this time, Wang Shicong, whom he hadn't contacted for a long time, called him, and he couldn't hide his excitement when he spoke!

"Running Man is on air!"

Gu Zhongyu waved his hand, not believing this at all!
The world will not function normally without anyone!

"The ratings and influence are very high, and it has already surpassed Mango Channel's Tian Tian Xiang..."

When shooting explosion scenes, minor injuries and illnesses are inevitable, but if a major safety incident occurs, it will be very troublesome.

"Blueberry Channel just asked me to contact you, saying that if you are free, you can come to as many episodes as possible. The conditions are easy to negotiate, including any new programs that Banana Entertainment will have in the future, they can cover them!"

By the way, the wolf dog named Xiaotian in the movie has already reached the crew.

"and then?"

"Okay! I promise them that I will go as long as I have time, okay?"

Too lazy to listen to Wang Shicong's ramblings, he hung up the phone after a few perfunctory words, then logged into his phone and started checking information related to the starting man.

Just overnight, several members of the Running Man team became popular!

Among the several members, the one who benefited the most was of course captain Deng Chao.

Before Deng Chao starred in Running Man, he was considered a quasi-A-list celebrity. After all, he appeared in many prime-time TV series, and his movies were not bad either, including "Partners in China" and "The Breakup Master" which he directed and starred in.

But the national popularity is still not enough, but now after being brainwashed by the running man variety show, Deng Chao's funny image is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people!
To be honest, the original first episode of Running Man was very poor, with almost no interaction between the guests.

This time, with Gu Zhongyu joining the cast and making jokes, at least the relationship between the guests does not seem as rigid as before, but it is definitely not as good as the Korean version.

After all, they have been working together for several years, and the tacit understanding between them is far more than Gu Zhongyu can offset with a few jokes.

In addition, the success of Running Man has suppressed Mango TV’s flagship variety show.

As a result, there have been more and more voices criticizing Running Man online. Most of them are saying that it is embarrassing and not good-looking or that it is too different from the Korean version.

Of course, although the Korean version of Running Man has a large audience, there are still many people who have not watched the original version. Therefore, even if it is the all-star version of Zhiyong Dasheng, they still find it interesting.

There was a lot of noise online, but the top management of Lantai was very calm, and Gu Zhongyu thought it was okay.

Some people praise it, some people criticize it. This is the right way to open a variety show.

If you find that a certain variety show has just been aired and has been praised online, it is definitely a good public relations job!
If the ratings and influence of the first episode were unprecedentedly high because of too many gimmicks, then the fact that the ratings of the second and third episodes can still remain at around 3% is enough to prove that Running Man has been successful!
Banana Entertainment's variety show program was a great success, and Wang Sicong took advantage of the situation to sell variety shows such as "Un-Summit", "Sisters Over Flowers", and "Real Men".

Mango Channel also bought several at once, and immediately announced the "Real Man" project, and then announced that it would invite Gu Zhongyu to join the new variety show.

Of course, this is just hype. Gu Zhongyu is busy filming movies now and has not received the so-called invitation letter at all.

Mango TV was really pushed into a hurry, so it chose to use this method to promote the show. It didn’t matter that it was suppressed by The Voice before. After all, The Voice only has one season a year, and now even Running Man is on the rise. What about the Friday slot?
Is it to be handed over to others?

Even if Mango TV is really willing to do this, Wang Han won’t do it!
They announced the launch of a new variety show with great fanfare, and it was clear that it was aimed at Blueberry Channel.

Unfortunately, they miscalculated one thing. The reason why "Real Man" became popular in the Cold War is because all their people join the army. They have a compulsory military service system, but our country does not!
In addition, the selected guests are not very eye-catching. In fact, "Real Man" is not as good as Running Man in terms of topic and influence. Except for the fat artist who kneels down and licks the stick, there is no splash.

Just when Running Man occupies the C position of hot searches, a lot of dirty information about Running Man members suddenly appeared on the Internet, such as Deng Chao's cheating, Chen He's divorce, Zheng Kai's private life, Bai Lu's relationship, etc. Old material.

Of course, except for Chen He's divorce, none of these incidents are considered scandals - Deng Chao's derailment is a clear sign of suspicion.

Since Chen He became a running man, many people like his unique variety show image. Some people like it, and some people hate it. Fortunately, Gu Zhongyu reminded him and let him announce the truth about his divorce from his wife early on.

So at Yu Hangying's suggestion, Chen He once again posted an apology statement on Weibo, writing with tears in his eyes. The ratings of Running Man have fluctuated a little, but only a little. After all, not many people who really watch TV are as serious as netizens. Variety shows are still different from movies!

……

"Teacher Gu, Teacher He and Teacher Wang Han want me to join Idol!"

It seems that Mango Channel is really in a hurry this time!

Also, with the two top variety shows "Tian Tian Shang Shang" and "Happy Camp" in hand, plus "Where Are We Going, Dad" and the shocking "I Am a Singer", logically speaking, one should not be too concerned about the show Running Man.

Perhaps the impression of Good Voice is too deep, so Mango Channel has long regarded Blueberry TV as a thorn in its side.

Now, they have launched another large-scale reality show. How can Mrs. Mango not feel like there are thorns in her back?

Therefore, they concentrated the efforts of the whole Taiwan to create two variety shows to welcome the big move of Blueberry Channel.

"Real Men" is a variety show for men, and they are also going to launch a variety show with an all-female star cast called "Here Comes the Idol"!
For this purpose, we also invited Auntie Lin Qingxia, who has retired from the entertainment industry for a long time!
This move is too cruel!

Although Aunt Qingxia has not been in the world for a long time, there is always a legend about her in the world. Gu Zhongyu also likes the Eastern Cult Leader very much.

It's a pity that beauty is old and her youth is gone!
In addition to Aunt Qingxia, there are also old-school actresses such as Zhu Yin, Yang Yuying, Ning Jing, etc., all focusing on one sentiment!

By the way, they also invited many young actresses, including Zhao Xiaodao, Zhang Hanyun, and our little Nazha.

In fact, Nazha was reluctant at first. After all, even her agent said that her personality was not suitable for reality shows. Gu Zhongyu also reminded her, but she couldn't resist Mango Channel's kind invitation.

Gu Zhongyu replied directly: "Push it away, your character participating in a reality show is totally recruiting evil!"

Although due to Gu Zhongyu's protection, there has been a lot less negative information about Nazha in this life, but I can't stand it. This young lady usually speaks loudly and always manages to make people half-dead. Her popularity within the company is not that good, but her emotional intelligence has improved. The show just attracts black fans!
"But Teacher He and Brother Han are the hosts, and they said they would take care of me! And Mango Channel is very sincere this time and directly offered six million!"

After working on it for a long time, I lost my money!
Six million is also called sincerity?

When Deng Chao joined a runner, he was paid more than 15 million, even if it was a small transparent white dew, it would be 3 million!
"If you really want to take it, I won't stop you. Be polite to other people after you get on the show. Don't show off, don't make noises, and don't mention my things when nothing happens. Do you understand?"

"Yeah! Then I'll go! Uh-huh~"

Nazha was very happy to get Gu Zhongyu's approval. Could it be that she would be recognized for making a decision? She wanted to prove to Teacher Gu that she also had a brain and could make a lot of money for the company!
"Who called you, Teacher Gu? Why did I hear the sound of kissing?"

The environment in the bar was so noisy, I didn't expect that Wang Zhi could hear him talking on the phone!

No matter how hard the filming is, you still need to relax. No, in the evening, the main creators of the crew came to a bar in Bangkok, ready to experience the Thai atmosphere.

Thailand is known as a "men's paradise". Great health care and other things are not on the table. It is becoming more and more popular to find beautiful Thai girls here to be "escorts" or to develop long-term relationships with lovers. Under the cover of the night economy Nowadays, more and more foreigners come to Thailand to travel or settle.

But they didn't dare to go to a place that was too "vulgar". This bar was already relatively clean, although as long as they looked down, they could see hot girls posing and pole dancing...

"You have a radar on your ear?"

Gu Zhongyu laughed and scolded, and then told them about Mango Channel's outdoor variety show.

"'Real Man'? I know, you sent me an invitation."

"Well, Brother Hanyu fits the character of a man very well. How much did they pay you?"

"Say fifteen million!"

"So generous! Did you accept it?"

Mango Channel is really willing to do it. This is much higher than Zhang Hanyu's salary for a movie. It's no wonder that many artists with excellent acting skills can't bear to accept variety shows to seduce their wives.

Zhang Hanyu shook his head, "No, I don't fall in love with any variety shows. It's boring. I just have to film movies on a regular basis!"

Then why did Mao later take on "Let's Time Travel"?
However, Zhang Hanyu’s sense of variety shows is indeed not strong, and sometimes it makes people feel very embarrassed. In the program "Let's Time Travel", Zhang Hanyu's performance in this show did not have many laughs, and it also caused many netizens to complain. , saying that he was too serious and had no sense of humor.

"Forget about being a man, what is "The Idol is Coming"?"

"It's all a show for women, including Barbecued Pork Fen, Zhu Yin, Brigitte Lin..."

"What? Lin Qingxia?"

The atmosphere finally became warm again. LSP is always nostalgic. Compared with today's young actresses, they are more fond of the goddesses of the last century.

Several old men started chatting about Aunt Qingxia, the Great God Manyu, and female stars such as Wang Zuxian and Gong Li in their memories.

"... Anyway, in my opinion, the one with the best acting skills is Manyu!"

"But Lin Qingxia's Dongfang Invincible is really deeply rooted in the hearts of the people!"

“I was also deeply impressed by Wang Zuxian in A Dream in the Garden!”

"Gong Li is the dream of all men my age!"

The topic unconsciously turned into a showdown between goddesses!
Even Zhang Hanyu, who is close to 50, is also interested. His favorite must be Gong Li, an old man in the Beijing circle. The first generation goddess is Gong Li, and then Xu Jinglei!

"Teacher Gu, which one do you like best?"

"I?"

Gu Zhongyu thought for a while: "In terms of international status, Gong Li is definitely the most powerful, followed by Manyu. After all, Gong Huangmanshen, this is no joke."

"In terms of acting skills and awards, Lin Qingxia is definitely not as good as Gong Li and Maggie Cheung. The only award that Lin Qingxia can offer is a Golden Horse Award. Gong Li and Maggie Cheung don't have too many international awards, but in terms of facts, Lin Qingxia In Chinese-language movies, her emotional index should be the highest!”

"It's a pity that this is not my ambition, so I will die early!"

At the end, Gu Zhongyu added.

It's a pity that Aunt Qingxia once said when she was filming The White-Haired Witch, "I don't know what acting is for!"

Many female celebrities are like this. They don't regard acting as a career, it's just a job to make money.
