Entertaining Children

   Chapter 1187

  Qiqu.com is a video website of China, and an Internet giant that can compete with Haiyan Video. Qiqu.com is also a conglomerate, and it is also involved in entertainment business, and it also has self-made programs, but compared with Haiyan Video, Xiao Yao's cooperation with Qiqu.com is not much.

   Speaking of the relationship between Xiao Yao and Qiqu.com, in fact, the first contact between Xiao Yao and Qiqu.com did not make Qiqu.com very happy.

When Xiao Yao participated in Fashion Week in New York, he carried his mobile phone to do live broadcast on the live broadcast platform. As a result, Qiqu.com spent a lot of effort to obtain the right to report, and spent a lot of money to invite celebrity artists to do interviews. The reporter’s fashion week live video online viewing volume and subsequent hits were relatively bleak. In the end, Qiqu still hired Wang Yuan as an intermediary to call Xiao Yao. Xiao Yao listened to Wang Yuan’s words, and then stopped the fashion. Zhou's live broadcast, their project was not considered a tasteless one.

What happened at that time, whether Xiao Yao gave Wang Yuan face or gave face to Qiqu.com, after all, they stopped the live broadcast of Fashion Week later, so that their project was considered a success in the end, so even Qiqu.com and Xiao Yao The first contact was not very pleasant, but Qiqu.com had no opinion on Xiao Yao. On the contrary, he saw Xiao Yao's great ability from the incident and paid more attention to him.

  In general, Xiao Yao's relationship with Qiqu.com is still good. Xiao Yao participated in the performance and the film and television works produced by Young People's Film and Television Company were sold to Qiqu.com, and the copyrights for the film and television works produced by the Youth Film and Television Company were also sold to Qiqu.com, and they were also online on Qiqu.com. It's just that Xiao Yao himself appeared in Qiqu's self-produced programs much less frequently than those film and television works.

  Over the years, Qiqu.com has also sent out many invitations to Xiao Yao for self-made variety shows. It's not that Xiao Yao doesn't watch comprehensive programs online, but he rarely goes to programs purely for exposure. Either the show is very fun and can attract Xiao Yao's interest, such as "Singer" and "Sound on the Scene", or during the promotion of the work, and at least those shows will not be too boring or not Xiao Yao Haruka felt too embarrassed.

  In the past few years, Xiao Yao has also participated in some programs of Qiqu. However, due to the time and the content of the program, compared with Haiyan Video, Xiao Yao has participated in fewer of the programs of Qiqu.

  To say that Xiao Yao’s most eye-catching performance in Internet variety shows in recent years should be even his performance in Haiyan Video’s "Creation 101" the year before.

  Before this show, Qiqu.com first made an "Idol Trainee" show. The Yan Junlin that Xiao Yao met in "Wild Kitchen" before debuted from that show. These two shows are actually variety shows imported from South Korea. They both select and train idol groups. It's just that Qiqu's "Idol Trainees" is a male group, and Haiyan Video's "Creation 101" is a female group. group.

  When doing this show, Qiqu.com also wanted to invite Xiao Yao to be a mentor to the trainees. After all, in that show, the two debut girl groups in their early twenties were hired by the show team to be dance teachers. Xiao Yao, who has written songs and choreographed for major Korean girl groups, has taken a dance. Whether you are a dance teacher or a vocal music teacher, you are definitely qualified.

  In the final result, Xiao Yao refused on the grounds that there was no schedule. Of course, Qiqu.com later learned that Xiao Yao also refused the invitation of the instructor of Haiyan Video's "Creation 101" for the same reason. But what they also know is that Xiao Yao once spent a week on that show and became a stage star senior, not only made him popular on the Internet, but also made the show burst into topics during that time. .

Now Qiqu.com is mainly doing an online variety show called "The Character of an Actor". Its model is a bit similar to "Idol Trainees" and "Creation 101", both of which allow domestic entertainment companies to recommend a large group of trainees or newcomers. After passing the primary election, they will be called to the program for intensive selection and training, and then they will be eliminated through some assessments and the final winner will be selected.

However, unlike those two programs, the students of those two programs are trainees of idol groups, and they test the stage performances of singing and dancing, and the final group debut, and the students of this program are newcomers from various companies. , What is tested is performance, and the last thing left is to get the opportunity to appear in film and television dramas.

  In addition, in response to the audience's complaints in the previous year’s show, and the differences between the actors and idol groups, the instructors in this show have also undergone some changes. These instructors are not necessarily stars in the circle, but they are either in-service teachers from well-known film and television academies, or leaders in the industry that have won international or domestic awards or achievements. There is no doubt about their professionalism.

  Teachers are not necessarily celebrities. Even celebrities are old actors. The traffic is relatively limited. Those students are all new actors and their popularity is also limited. In consideration of the ratings and traffic of the show, the recruiter role of the promoter and producer in this show is similar to that of the puppet show. A well-known host and two well-known actors are also responsible for the communication with the students during the show , Performance reviews and control of the program flow. It is worth mentioning that the two star actors in the recruiters are not too old, and they are not teachers in the show, but are called seniors.

  The recording period of this program is also three months. Let’s not talk about whether a famous star like Xiao Yao is suitable and qualified to become an instructor with the teachers of those film and television academies. Even if he is very suitable to serve as a star senior among recruiters, Xiao Yao cannot spend three The time of the month is on this program, even if these three months do not need to be with the students every day, they have to be recorded every day.

Therefore, the program team had a little contact with Xiao Yao’s studio, and knew that Xiao Yao could not be a resident guest of this show, but considering Xiao Yao’s performance in "Creation 101" the year before, even if he only appeared in one Period, the promotion effect on the viewing and topicality of the program group is also huge.

  Xiao Yao participated in the recording of many shows this month, basically to promote the movie. However, these programs are either life or music. Xiao Yao either participated in the program as a star or as a singer or music creator. Since it is to promote a movie, Xiao Yao also wants to participate in a program as a director or actor to promote it.

  There are not many performance-related programs broadcast during this period. Considering the topicality of the program, the recording time and broadcast time, the content of the program, and the publicity effect, "The Character of an Actor" is the only suitable one.

  The program group wanted to invite Xiao Yao, and Xiao Yao wanted to participate in the program. The two sides naturally hit it off.

  Xiao Yao only participated in the recording of one episode, but it was not the first episode.

  This show has been recorded since years ago.

  A total of sixty new actors and students entered the show. The first is the debut of the initial rankings, and the recruitment team will be assessed and classified into classes. After studying for a period of time, the program group conducted the first stage of assessment, reclassified, and then the second assessment. The second assessment not only reclassified the students according to their scores, but also eliminated a group of students.

  Now the program has reached the third stage of assessment period. In the previous second assessment, 24 people were eliminated. The original team of 60 students was only 36 people left. This is the same number as Xiao Yao when he participated in "Creation 101" the year before.

  Each stage of the assessment consists of three parts: the big test, the small test and the additional test. Small assessments and additional exams are generally made by the teachers of the program group and scored, while the large assessments generally involve ordinary audiences. The final ranking and elimination list of each stage are calculated according to the total score of the students in the program.

  The subject of the third stage of the big assessment is stage play performance. Thirty-six people need to be divided into six groups to complete six stage play performances. During the stage performance, there are live audiences. The live audience and three recruiters with special scores watched and voted on the spot, and finally ranked according to the overall results. According to the different rankings, the six groups of students will also receive different points of extra points, which will be included in their total scores at this stage.

  Now the show is in the third stage. Xiao Yao is now participating in the show. What he has to do in the show is related to the big assessment at this stage. Among the six stage plays for the students to choose from, one of the scripts was provided by Xiao Yao, and Xiao Yao will personally act as the stage director and instructor of the group of students who selected the script he provided.

  This part of providing the script, Xiao Yao has already completed. A stage play is only about ten minutes in total, and the script is not very long. Xiao Yao has already written it and sent it to the program team, and the program team has also approved it. He only needs to wait for the stage play to begin and go to the shooting location to participate in the recording of the show.

  The third stage of the program has more than one week, but this more than one week is not all used to prepare the stage play. The students usually have basic courses and other tasks.

  This third stage of the big assessment, the students got the script during the day before and will perform on stage the next night. The preparation time in the middle is less than 48 hours. This also means that Xiao Yao’s participation in the recording of this program will not exceed 48 hours, which is much easier than the previous week when he participated in "Creation 101".

  Qiqu.com’s site for the recording of this online comprehensive program is in Shencheng. Although it is a photography base on the outskirts of Shencheng, it is still in Shencheng after all. Xiao Yao used to be very convenient.

  According to the original script procedure given to Xiao Yao by the program group, Xiao Yao needed to come to the shooting location to meet with his group of students on the 25th, the afternoon when the students chose the script. However, since Li Shiyu's song had been recorded the day before, there was nothing wrong with him. In addition, the filming location was originally in Shencheng, so Xiao Yao drove to the filming base early that morning by himself.

   "Hey, Teacher Ke, I am Xiao Yao!" When he arrived at the door of the shooting base, Xiao Yao dialed Ke Jun's phone, "I am at the door of the shooting base now!"

  The most famous in this show are the three recruiters. The well-known host is Ke Jun of Xiangnan Satellite TV, and the other two are well-known young actors. Although Xiao Yao is an actor and singer, not a host, among the three recruits, Xiao Yao is the most familiar with Ke Jun.

   "What? Are you here now?" Ke Jun was a little surprised. "I remember the director group told me that you would come here this afternoon!"

"Yes, the program team notified me to arrive in the afternoon." Xiao Yao smiled, "but I live far away from here, and there are always traffic jams in Shanghai. I am afraid that there will be traffic jams when I come out in the afternoon, so I drove out ahead of time. Up."

  "Afraid of traffic jams? Then there is no need to advance so much, right?" Ke Jun smiled bitterly, "It's only morning!"

"Main Duoer is back to Yanjing, I have nothing to do in the morning, I am free!" Xiao Yao smiled, "Yes, I'm here early, I'm afraid that just going in this way will affect your normal shooting process, so I want to trouble you. Discuss with the program team first to see if I can arrange for me to record in advance. It doesn’t matter if I don’t arrange it well. I drove around by myself, and it’s easy to find a place to pass the time."

   "If you want to enter the filming in advance, you should call the director of the program group and discuss with the program group, why are you still looking for me?" Ke Jun smiled, "Is my power more powerful than the director?"

"No," Xiao Yao said with a smile, "I'm afraid that if I call the director, the director will be under pressure. If it doesn't work, he will let me come in early, which will affect your shooting. Isn't this familiar with you? Contact you, please tell the director clearly, no, no force, I will find a place nearby to play, and come back this afternoon!"

   "Okay, then I will discuss with the director, and I'll talk to you later!" Ke Jun agreed.

   "Hmm!" Xiao Yao promised. He hung up the phone and didn't get out of the car. He sat in the car and waited for Ke Jun's reply.

  After a while, Xiao Yao's cell phone rang. Xiao Yao picked it up and saw that it was indeed Ke Jun calling.

   "Mr. Ke!" Xiao Yao smiled and answered the phone.

"Xiao Yao, I told the director." Ke Jun said directly, "In the morning, I, the Wenbo and Qiuyue, announced the test questions of the big exam to the students. Recorded in the studio, it is not convenient for you to show up. If you are Come in, maybe there are not many shots left to tell, and we can’t accompany you. But in the afternoon, the students auditioned for the actors themselves. You can watch them in the observation room with us, or you can comment together. I think this is okay, yes. The footage has material, and it’s a lot earlier than you originally scheduled, so you don’t need to wait too long outside. How about you find a place to play in the morning, and then come in after lunch? The audition starts at two o’clock, before we I can also talk to you for a while."

  According to the original script, Xiao Yao should be around 5:30 in the afternoon. The students selected the script and selected their own team members through the audition. After the teams were divided, Xiao Yao appeared to meet with the actors of his team. Now that he has moved forward his recording time from 5:30 in the afternoon to after lunch, it should be that the program team has taken care of Xiao Yao, who has arrived as early as possible.

"Observation room?" Xiao Yao did not immediately accept such an arrangement. He tentatively asked, "Can you see the situation in the studio in the observation room? Then when you announced the assessment questions in the studio in the morning, I Can I go and watch it in the observation room? I don't need someone to accompany me. I just sit there and take this opportunity to observe the students in advance. It should be quite interesting."

  "Would you like to sit alone in the observation room?" Ke Jun asked in confirmation.

   "Yes!" Xiao Yao said, "And I am willing if the program team doesn't film me, or broadcast this scene of me!"

  He paused for a while, and I don’t know if the director is next to Ke Jun. Ke Jun asked the director for his opinion. After a few seconds, I heard Ke Jun's voice coming out of the phone receiver again: "Then you come in! Studio 5, I will pick you up at the door now!"
