Chapter 887: Changing the Rules Again
Yanjing TV station.
Yan Hong was sitting behind his desk, holding a cigarette between the index and middle fingers of his left hand.
"We have to change it again." Yan Hong blew out a smoke ring.
A group of directors began to record, and the pen they had just prepared to record stayed on the paper.
"Do we still want to change the rules?"
"We used different rules for our first two performances, and many singers and musicians have begun to have opinions."
"Yes, last time I informed the musicians that I wanted to change the rules, Teacher Ren Qingsong complained about it for a long time, and I didn't dare to speak."
The director below is too young to be strong in front of musicians and singers. Although Yan Hong has high prestige and the popularity of the show is high, the guests are still guests and seniors in the director's heart.
They can only listen and endure when others complain.
Yan Hong took another puff of cigarette, this time his teeth were yellow due to years of smoking, and he waved them casually with the hand holding the cigarette.
"Don't worry about them, as I taught you before, our program is not for the guests, it is for the audience. We only need to please the audience's taste, attract more people to watch, and create more topics. The guests can
Change it."
The editors and directors did not speak anymore, but quickly remembered what Yan Hong once said to them.
Although variety shows rely on guests to make them enjoyable, the directors are the ones who really make the rules. It is they who make the rules of the game interesting and the guests cooperate to make them enjoyable.
An iron-clad camp is made up of smooth soldiers. The guests are those quick soldiers. This time the show will use this group of people, and the next time it will use that group of people.
As long as their show has high ratings, they don't care if no celebrities are willing to participate.
The audience is the eternal god.
The rules of their game are made for God.
Not those celebrities who are making money.
The directors and directors nodded in agreement, agreeing with what the chief director Yan Hong said.
Yan Hong nodded with satisfaction, took one last puff, and put out the cigarette butt in the ashtray.
"Our rule for the next issue is that there are no rules."
Everyone looked at each other.
No rules?
Although they didn't know what Yan Hong meant, they didn't dare to talk nonsense.
You can still pretend to understand if you remain silent, but if you say something wrong, you will lose your confidence.
Yan Hong seemed to be waiting for someone to understand what he meant, so he did not give a direct answer.
Everyone subconsciously looked at the assistant director who had been following Yan Hong for the longest time.
The deputy director was panicked when everyone saw him. The key was that Yan Hong also looked at him.
He quickly waved his hand, "I definitely don't understand what the boss means. If I did, I would have told you earlier and given you kids a chance to show off."
He has followed Yan Hong for the longest time and is the most confident.
Others will worry that they are not capable enough and will be kicked out of the team by Yan Hong, but only he does not have to worry about these.
Yan Hong immediately stopped looking at the assistant director and continued to scan the other directors.
However, he was a little disappointed that no one could really understand his intentions.
"Director Yan has no rules, does he mean that the guests will be randomly matched?"
The person who spoke was none other than Xiaozi.
No one else spoke, but they all began to weigh Xiaozi's answer in their hearts.
It feels like it makes sense.
Does Director Yan really mean this?
Regardless of whether he is right or not, it won’t be wrong if you don’t say anything. If you are wrong, you will definitely be criticized by strict leaders.
Director Yan dislikes smart people the most.
Random matching is very interesting.
Everyone has different ideas. Xiaozi doesn't care what others think, she cares about Yan Hong.
Although she was Yan Hong's niece, she just didn't think she was great because of her status, and she didn't try to get her uncle to help her.
At Yanjing TV Station, Xiaozi has been working at the lowest level.
Becoming Iron Man's temporary manager in "The Masked Singer" was her crowning moment.
Yan Hong knows everyone's identity. The purpose of doing this is to hope that his niece can have more opportunities to appear in the show, have enough interesting interactions with Iron Man, and be remembered by the audience, which will pave the way for her future work in the TV station.
Good foundation.
It's a pity that Iron Man dropped out of the competition halfway.
Even if Iron Man didn't retire, Xiaozi didn't get much attention because of Iron Man, mainly because Iron Man talked too little, and even if the two of them were together, they would probably remain silent.
There is really nothing to shoot, so the editing can't always play back what looks like still images.
This kind of scene appears occasionally, which can add humor. If it appears too much, it will be boring.
In addition, Iron Man later retired from the competition.
Xiaozi immediately stopped appearing in front of the camera.
But she actually studied directing, and whether she appears in front of the camera or not does not affect her work.
Yan Hong continued to let Xiaozi work as a director in his team.
There is no preferential treatment in the program team.
This is where you must have real skills if you want to learn real skills.
Yan Hong's team has always been a team that doesn't care for idlers. No matter who they are, as long as they don't have the ability, they must get out.
Therefore, those who follow him are elites regardless of age and gender.
Yan Hong always has a lot of wild ideas, and you have to keep up with his rhythm.
Although the people in the team are all elites among the elites, they are not roundworms in his stomach after all, and there will occasionally be times when they cannot keep up with his rhythm.
For example, now.
After Xiaozi answered, everyone else had their own thoughts.
She looked at her uncle seriously, waiting for a yes or no reply.
Yan Hong looked at Xiao Zi solemnly, with a half-smile on his lips.
"Tell me your reasons."
Xiaozi didn't just make random guesses, she did have her own reasons.
"In the past few issues, the most outstanding person in "Music Partners" is Lin Yu from Guoguo Culture Media. I have carefully read the comments from netizens, and what everyone wants to see most now is what Lin Yu will have in the next issue.
Who will you collaborate with on your work?”
Yan Hong nodded noncommittally.
Xiaozi continued, "Actually, Lin Yu's previous collaborators were either singers from our company, or singers he had collaborated with before, or even singers who admired and loved him. The songs were good, and they happened to be given to the right person, so I guess
There were different sparks and chemical reactions, which made the show particularly exciting."
"But if this continues, each musician will work with singers he is familiar with and people he gets along with, and the chemical reaction will gradually become less obvious. Too monotonous rules will make the program fall into an endless loop, and it will also
It loses its appeal and doesn’t look good.”
"If we want to break out now, we have to prevent musicians from collaborating with singers they are familiar with. The audience's evaluation of the mutual selection session before our second performance was good, but it still did not completely allow musicians and singers to jump out of their comfort zones, because
Entries can be communicated with each other in advance, so you can still see that many singers happen to team up with musicians from the same company."
"So I think it's best to draw lots for the next episode and completely disrupt their rhythm. Maybe the musicians have already thought of a few songs for their favorite singers to participate in our show, so we make it impossible for them to give what they want.
In this way, they will either give up the previous songs or change the songs for the newly assigned singer, which will not make them comfortable anyway."
"Although we may make musicians and singers feel uncomfortable, we have already signed a contract and the show is very popular. They will not withdraw from the competition because of this kind of thing. The most they can do is complain and complain a few words, so we will tolerate it.
one time."
"The audience likes to see the program crew trick the guests the most. The above is my reason."
After Xiaozi finished speaking, everyone except Yan Hong was stunned.
They didn't expect that not only was Xiaozi not just talking nonsense, but she could also give so many reasons with sound evidence.
She is no longer a little intern living under her uncle's wing.
No one even knows when she grew up like this.
Shocked, fearful, and terrified, people immediately gathered in the conference room.
Except for Yan Hong, everyone here is in a competitive relationship, including the deputy director who has been with Yan Hong for many years.
Suddenly someone became so good that they were all a little scared.
Only Yan Hong showed a happy smile.
Clap your hands together vigorously and applaud Xiaozi.
"Your thoughts are exactly what I'm thinking, and the reasons are exactly what I want to say. Okay, now I don't need to add anything more. You all heard what Xiaozi said. Now go and talk to your respective responsible persons.
The musician will contact the singer, and I will personally contact Ou Xiaojuan. After the meeting, everyone goes to work."
Xiaozi didn't care about other people's eyes. She was a "connected person" and didn't need to care about what others thought.
Before leaving the conference room, Xiaozi nodded to her uncle.
Chapter completed!
