Chapter 442 Addictive Game
Zhou Sheng, the director of "Happy Camp", started thinking about upgrading Kuaiben a long time ago.
At present, the variety shows of various David TV stations are similar. In contrast, there is no essential difference between "Happy Camp". The only difference is that the ratings of Shonan TV are much higher than those of other stations, which is also beneficial. The historical accumulation in the era of "Huanzhugege", if it weren't for the high ratings, "Happy Camp" would not have attracted stars from all walks of life. After having the first-line star resources, "Happy Camp" has won the ratings again. Further improvement is also the root of the real success of "Happy Camp".
If you put aside the halo of Shonan Satellite TV and those stars, what advantages does "Happy Camp" have? Zhou Sheng couldn't tell.
Although the host lineup of "Happy Camp" is relatively strong, and the new star Chen Wan is about to join, but to tell the truth, the original hosts are actually popular on Hunan Satellite TV, and they are joining this show. Before, they themselves did not have much market influence.
To sum it up, everything comes from the strong viewing resources of Shonan Satellite TV, so "Happy Camp" can go smoothly all the way, but just in terms of the content of the program, Zhou Sheng has always felt that it is bland and boring, and the interestingness of the program mode. , it is not even as good as "Super Winner" in Hui Province. If the viewing resources of Hunan Satellite TV are equal to that of Hui Province, then "Happy Camp" will definitely not reach the height of "Super Winner".
Zhou Sheng has always wanted to change this embarrassing situation. Shonan Satellite TV is the No. 1 TV in China. He also wants to be the No. 1 variety show in China. It’s just that the core content of a variety show is so easy to replace or upgrade. Accidentally may spoil the show.
Now the overall model of "Happy Camp" has been solidified. Usually, it cooperates with stars, crew, and brokerage companies. For example, when a new drama is about to be broadcast, the producer coordinates the Kuaiben program team and arranges the leading actors to do it. For a program, if it is a movie star, it is usually to promote a new movie; if it is a singer, then 80% of it is to come over to promote a new album or a concert. Occasionally watch one or two episodes and feel good, but if you watch too much, you will find it boring. .
Zhou Sheng feels that the current "Happy Camp" urgently needs a new and eye-catching mode. This mode does not necessarily have to replace the entire program flow, even if only one of them is replaced, it can be have an unexpected effect.
In fact, Zhou Sheng's considerations are very professional. Whether it is now or in the future, the core highlights of variety shows are a crucial part. The reason why running men can become popular is the most critical part of tearing up famous brands. In this session, the effect of the entire program will be greatly reduced; the key point of the good voice is the setting of the blind selection swivel chair. It is this extraordinary talent show that makes it stand out from all kinds of talent shows.
It's just that a good model is easy to say, but it is really difficult to explore. During this time, Zhou Sheng and the program team thought about at least a dozen new models.
But in the end, without exception, they were all shot.
After a dozen or so miscarriages of the new plan, Zhou Sheng began to look for breakthroughs in other areas. This is the fundamental reason why he took the initiative to find Chen Wan, a pure newcomer in the hosting field. The old model has been maintained mechanically. When there is no way to change the mode, you can only find a completely different new face to break the game.
Just when Zhou Sheng was struggling to find a new model, Chen Wan suddenly found him during his lunch break that day and said to him, "Director Zhou, a friend of mine told me about a party game model, I think It is very suitable to be placed in our program as a new part of the program, I would like to ask if you are interested in learning about it."
"Okay," Zhou Sheng put down his chopsticks and said seriously, "Go ahead, I'll listen to it."
Chen Wan said: "This game is quite interactive. Let me talk about the gameplay. If you think it's not bad, we can find some colleagues to try it out."
Zhou Sheng nodded and put his fingers on the table, as if he was listening carefully.
Chen Wan explained the process of "Who's Undercover" to him in detail. After Li Mu told Chen Wan the specific game process on the phone last night, he was afraid that she would not understand it, and wrote a very detailed description for her. The game description was sent to her mailbox. In the morning, Chen Wan carefully read the description sent by Li Mu several times, and only communicated with Zhou Sheng after she had thoroughly researched it. Therefore, although she has not experienced the game in person, she has Familiarize yourself with the rules of the game.
Zhou Sheng has been doing variety shows for many years, and he has an innate keen sense of smell in this area, just like a senior antique appraisal expert. , you can know whether something is good or not.
The game rules of "Who's Undercover" are not difficult, it is nothing more than two camps, two different but very similar words, and then defeat their opponents through intense and exciting reasoning, brain burning and psychological warfare.
Zhou Sheng probably listened to it, and his eyes lit up. With his years of experience, his first feeling was: there is something wrong!
Really messed up!
Those who have never played a killing game will find this thing so boring, a bunch of people sitting there with nothing, just relying on their mouths to say, absurd and boring, but after really touching and playing, they will understand the significance of this. The playability is very powerful, and its test of IQ, eloquence and psychological quality is very comprehensive and thrilling.
"Who's Undercover" is a similar game to it, so Zhou Sheng was very interested after listening to it.
In order to allow himself to more deeply outline the rules and effects of this game in his mind, Zhou Sheng closed his eyes and thought for a moment, and couldn't help but said to Chen Wan: "Xiao Wan, say it again, I closed my eyes and thought about it. ponder."
Chen Wan nodded and told the rules of the game again from the beginning.
Zhou Sheng hadn't finished listening this time, but a look of surprise appeared on his face. When Chen Wan finished speaking, he opened his eyes and said excitedly, "This game is so creative, the person who came up with this game is simply amazing. It's a genius! The game process is tense and interesting, and it has a strong topicality, especially in the selection of words. We can completely customize it. If we want to do a martial arts-related show, then we can use the drop The terms Dragon Eighteen Palms and Nine Yin White Bone Claws; if we want to make a film and television show, we can use the name of the film and television drama as a game, or even the names of two of the leading actors, the scope of operation is very large!"
After speaking, Zhou Sheng stood up impatiently and said to Chen Wan, "Xiao Wan, you eat first, I'll organize people, and then coordinate a large conference room. Let's try this game in the conference room in the afternoon. If there is no problem with this game, you have really done a great job to our "Happy Camp"!"
Chen Wan didn't expect Zhou Sheng's reaction to be so strong, she was about to leave before finishing her meal, she nodded, and before she could speak, Zhou Sheng couldn't hold back and left first.
Chen Wan had just finished her own meal when Zhou Sheng's phone called: "Xiao Wan, come to the No. 3 conference room, I organized my colleagues from the crew to come and study together, you will host!"
"Okay Director Zhou, I'll be right here." Chen Wan had to get up and hurried to the large conference room No. 3. As soon as they got to the conference room, the twenty-odd people in the program group were all here, and Zhou Sheng was directing the meeting. The table was moved to the edge, leaving only eight seats, and then named by name: "Liu Ming, Chen Yihui, Gao Hanhan, Su Xiaoxiao... You guys are more flexible, let Xiaowan lead you later. Try the new game, and others will be in the front with me as spectators to get a feel for how the game will look."
Chen Wan didn't expect him to make such a big battle. Although she has never really played the game, she can only temporarily carry it at this moment.
Zhou Sheng named six people just now, plus Chen Wan, which is exactly seven. According to the rules of the game, you need to draw cards to select an undercover agent. Chen Wan asked Zhou Sheng to ask for the playing cards he prepared, and choose from A to 6 For these six cards, another K was chosen, and then I told everyone the general rules. Whoever draws K among the seven people is an undercover agent.
Later, Chen Wan said to Zhou Sheng: "Director Zhou, you have to come up with two similar but different words later, and then assign the different words to different characters, and wait until the game participants know their own words. After that, we started to use language to describe the words we just got. Everyone should try their best to not let the undercover find out, but also give some hints to their teammates. If they are undercover, try to confuse others. , don't be seen through by others. After the seven of us have described each one, everyone will start voting quickly, pointing out who is undercover and whoever gets the most votes will be out of the round. If the out is an undercover, the undercover will fail; if the out is For others, the game continues until the undercover is found, or the undercover stays on until the final round."
After the rules were said, everyone was eager to try, and those who were arranged to be spectators were all sitting across from the seven people, waiting for the start of the game.
After everyone figured out the rules, Zhou Sheng thought of two words: steamed buns and dumplings.
Then, the game officially started. The first person to be drawn undercover was a boy. As soon as everyone started the first round, he was discovered by others because of nervousness, and was immediately identified.
Then in the second round, the person who was drawn undercover still failed to maintain a good psychological quality, but was pointed out in the second round. However, when everyone pointed the wrong person in the first round, the audience began to realize this. The fun of the game.
Then, everyone was getting better and better, and even some undercover agents actually carried it to the end and won. In that game, everyone identified mistakes round by round, which put a lot of psychological pressure on other players, and also made the audience really feel To the exciting excitement of this game.
Although Zhou Sheng has been a referee, he has always been very attentive to experience every little detail of the game. At this moment, he happened to observe the seven people playing the game from the director's point of view. I have to say that from the director's point of view, the atmosphere of the scene was great. They are very fascinated. You must know that they are not ordinary audiences. They are all practitioners of variety shows. It stands to reason that their eyes on variety shows are much higher than ordinary people! If even they can play this hi, then the effect of the show will be bursting.
The game went on for about an hour, and Zhou Sheng said to an assistant next to him, "Liu, go and bring a DV and bring a tripod."
The assistant understood and immediately ran to get a portable DV, which was placed in the corner on a tripod to shoot the scene of the live game.
The screams and laughter in the conference room attracted the attention of many colleagues from other departments. Zhou Sheng ordered an assistant to lock the door. If a colleague or leader wanted to come in, he would say that the program team was testing a new game and it was inconvenient to disturb him. , He didn't want onlookers or leaders to interfere with the atmosphere of everyone's investment at this time. When the test is over, just show the video to the station leaders directly.
The named assistant said with a very hurt expression, "Director Zhou, I want to watch it for a while..."
Zhou Sheng laughed and scolded: "You go to guard first, I'll find someone to replace your head office later!"
The assistant had to nod helplessly, stood guard at the door of the conference room, and explained one by one to the leading colleagues who passed by and wanted to come in to see what happened.
When the game progressed to a certain level, the seven people, including Chen Wan, had become veterans of the game. When playing the game, all kinds of thoughts were very slippery. An excellent point of difference, to release information to the companions, and the wonderful links continue one after another.
Seeing that the seven people were having such a good time, the "spectators" who understood the rules also wanted to try it out, so the participants began to change with their colleagues who were viewers. played all afternoon.
Zhou Sheng was so excited that he felt that the interactive mode and atmosphere of the game "I Am Undercover" were surprisingly good. If the host and guests played together on stage, the effect would be very good, and the rules of the game would be very good. It's simple, easy to get started, and addicting as soon as you play it. Before the show is recorded, you can teach the guests how to play in half an hour, and you don't have to worry that the guests don't understand, don't know how to play, or don't want to play. If you come up with some comparisons Interesting and interesting phrases, the program will be even better.
