Chapter 553: Go to the Laughing Theater to Challenge!
In variety shows, all kinds of popularity are needed.
In this regard, Yao Zhi is more shameless than other variety show directors.
When he used to do "Country Concert", the guests on the show had to mention the names of other stars when chatting with each other.
Nowadays, "Tang Bohu Spots Autumn Fragrance" is so popular, as a comedy variety show, it must be mentioned.
Yang Baoyin is also a director of comedy films, and Yao Zhi arranged such a problem during the preparation process.
As expected by Yao Zhi, "Tang Bohu Spots Autumn Fragrance" is now experiencing strong box office growth and is also well received online. It will undoubtedly give this year's comedy movies a boost.
The market needs the guidance of excellent works. After watching "Tang Bohu Spots Autumn Fragrance", the audience will also want to watch other comedy movies, which is good for everyone.
As a comedy director, Yang Baoyin would logically be happy to see such a scene.
If Yang Baoyin praised "Tang Bohu Spots Autumn Fragrance", he would be equivalent to helping Xu Ye advertise the movie.
As a result, Yao Zhi never expected that Yang Baoyin would actually complain on the show.
This old thing is very bad!
But Yao Zhi is not panic at all. He is the chief director of "Laughing Theater". Even if the most awesome people come to his show, he can control everything.
After all, this program is not live but recorded. As long as it is recorded, everything is under control.
Yao Zhi likes to create program effects. When he watched this pre-production video, he knew that once this video was released, it would bring at least two or three hot searches to the program.
A well-known comedy director gave a critical review of "Tang Bohu Spots Autumn Fragrance", which immediately became a hot topic.
If it were another variety show, this content would definitely be cut into the main film. Not only would it be edited in, but it would probably also be deliberately created to create a variety show effect in the show to attract hot searches.
But this is Yao Zhi's variety show.
"Well, Yang Baoyin, thank you for coming to my variety show. If you want to say bad things about Xu Ye, you have to get through me first."
Without thinking, Yao Zhi decided to send this video to Xu Ye first.
Based on his understanding of Xu Ye, Xu Ye must have bad intentions in his heart.
It is estimated that Xu Ye can also perform other operations besides cutting or not cutting.
Xu Ye also started thinking after watching this video.
He and Yang Baoyin had no grievances, and he didn't know where this man came from with such great resentment.
But this kind of words was also expected by him.
On Earth, after Stephen Chow's nonsensical comedies appeared, weren't they also criticized by some directors in the industry?
Xu Ye was still wondering these days, why no big director came out to say a few words. It turned out that he was waiting for him here.
As for whether this video should be cut, of course it won’t be cut.
Xu Ye called Yao Zhi directly.
After the call was connected, Xu Ye asked: "Director Yao, is it convenient for you to talk there?"
Yao Zhi tried to hear something from Xu Ye's tone, but unfortunately he couldn't hear anything.
"It's convenient, you can say whatever you want."
Xu Ye smiled and said: "You don't need to cut this section. Not only don't cut it, you'd better keep it intact."
Yao Zhi heard something from Xu Ye's tone this time.
It seems to be an emotion called excitement.
No, bro, do you have masochistic tendencies?
This is Yang Baoyin, who is famous in the comedy film industry. Do you know how much impact these few words of his will have if they are released?
Many netizens today are easily affected.
Yang Baoyin said that this movie is not good, but some people really think that "Tang Bohu Spots Autumn Fragrance" is not good, and then they will not watch it.
In the end, those who think good things and those who think bad things will quarrel online.
Yao Zhi reminded: "You have to think clearly."
"I actually don't think very clearly." Xu Ye said.
"Then you still say that?"
"When you said that, I thought clearly."
"How come you've figured it out?"
"I also have to go to your variety show."
Yao Zhi was stunned when he heard this.
He did not invite Xu Ye during the early preparations for this variety show.
Xu Ye was too busy at that time. He was filming and releasing a movie. When the movie was released, there was even a small Easter egg. It was obvious that the second movie had already started.
Yao Zhi estimated that Xu Ye might not have any schedule.
"Are you really going to come?" Yao Zhi asked.
"Yeah, keep it real."
Xu Ye's tone didn't sound like he was joking.
He had also seen news about the variety show "Laughter Theater" on the Internet, so he probably knew what was going on.
This show has a bit of a comedy contest feel.
Isn't it better than comedy? No one can compare with it.
Moreover, this kind of variety show is also a place where people can be praised.
His former manager and assistant Zheng Yu really needed such a stage.
Zheng Yu only made a few guest appearances in "Unexpectedly" last year.
His sense of humor is adequate, but his acting experience is not enough.
After filming "Unexpectedly", Zheng Yu signed up for an acting class to further his studies.
It's been more than half a year now, and it's time to come out and show off.
To be honest, Xu Ye didn't expect that Zheng Yu's appearance was becoming more and more Shen Teng.
Since he stopped being an agent, Zheng Yu has gradually gained weight and started to let himself go.
Xu Ye felt that he could cultivate Zheng Yu, and his works would be indispensable.
Comedy styles are diverse. This is a big studio, and it is impossible to do only one type of comedy.
The entire studio cannot be supported by him alone.
If comedy only has one style, it will be less fun for the audience.
After Zheng Yu is polished with the help of this program, Xihong City Universe can also come out.
As for Yang Baoyin, since you say that nonsense is low-level, let's meet on stage.
It's not terrible to wear the same clothes, but whoever is ugly will be embarrassed.
On the other hand, Yao Zhi was a little surprised.
This is traffic delivered to the door.
Yao Zhi asked: "Do you want to compete with Yang Baoyin on the stage?"
"Yes, why say so much nonsense." Xu Ye said.
"Are you sure?" Yao Zhi asked again.
"If I'm not sure, I won't go."
Yao Zhi laughed immediately.
If someone else said this, he would only think it was arrogant.
Yang Baoyin has a very high status in the comedy world.
And Xu Ye is just a newcomer to the comedy world.
He wanted to challenge Yang Baoyin right away. Most newcomers wouldn't dare to say such things.
But when Xu Ye said such things, he felt that Xu Ye could do it.
After all, Xu Ye had never lost.
When this guy first debuted in the music industry, he was the king of pop.
"Okay, I'll send you the information later, and we can communicate about the specifics at any time."
Not long after the phone call was hung up, Xu Ye received the information sent by Yao Zhi.
At present, the first episode of "Laughing Theater" has been recorded, and each episode will be divided into two episodes.
After all, the highlights of the Laughing Theater are not only the performances on the stage, but also the interactions between the mentors and the contestants.
These offline daily routines are also part of the program.
Rather than saying that "Laughing Theater" is a comedy competition, it is better to say that it is a competitive reality show.
When the performance begins, there will be some celebrity guests on the scene to watch. These celebrity guests are obviously reserved for some celebrities with good relationships.
Everyone sits here to watch the show, and can also show their faces in front of the camera, or promote their new works. This is also the standard configuration of this type of program at present.
What is more interesting is that Yao Zhi also added a challenge segment to the program.
The challenge mentor has the right to freely choose a contestant from the pool of contestants. After the selection, the contestant will join his team.
This is also a privilege for the challenge mentor.
The contestants in the program are also selected from national auditions, and they are all talents who love comedy.
"This is good, maybe we can find a few good actors."
As for how Zheng Yu entered this variety show, Xu Ye can use his challenge privilege to bring a contestant in.
The identities of the mentors in the program are also very interesting. They are either actors or directors.
There are old actors, out-of-date actors, and various directors.
Yao Zhi has a habit of doing variety shows. When he chooses guests, he does not necessarily choose the most popular ones. He only chooses the ones with the most barrage after they are released.
It can only be said that Yao Zhi understands variety shows.
After Xu Ye read the information, Yao Zhi's reply to him also came.
Xu Ye will come to record the program as a challenge mentor in the next episode, and Xu Ye still has a lot of preparation time.
Xu Ye put down his phone and prepared to tell Zheng Yu the good news.
Zheng Yu happened to be at Shengguang Entertainment these days.
Since bringing Xu Ye out, Zheng Yu's status and position in Shengguang Entertainment has long been different.
After Xu Ye prepared, he came to the office of Shengguang Entertainment.
The office employees also greeted him one after another.
Xu Ye asked, "Where is Brother Yu?"
A female employee pointed to the conference room and said, "Brother Yu is in the conference room for a meeting with the agent."
The female employee wanted to say something, but heard Xu Ye say, "You didn't bring me with you to the meeting with the agent!"
The female employee immediately shut up and muttered in her heart, "Sure enough, Xu Ye is the most abnormal."
Xu Ye walked quickly to the door of the conference room and heard Zheng Yu's voice from inside.
"I tell you, the profession of agent is getting more and more evil as you get older. Am I proud that I brought Xu Ye out when I was in my thirties?"
Xu Ye knocked on the door, and Zheng Yu's voice came from inside.
"Come in."
At this time, in the conference room, four agents were sitting on chairs and looking at each other.
Everyone did come to listen to Zheng Yu share his experience as a manager, but they always felt that there was something wrong with the experience.
After all, Xu Ye had been relying on himself most of the time, and the manager didn't play much of a role.
Everyone just thought of it as Zheng Yu telling a story.
But it got a bit annoying at the end, after all, there wasn't much of a story.
After hearing the knock on the door, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
"Finally someone is here, let's call Zheng Yu away."
The door to the conference room opened and Xu Ye walked in.
When these managers saw Xu Ye, their hearts were completely dead.
This is not as good as Zheng Yu!
When Zheng Yu saw Xu Ye coming, he smiled and said, "Xu Ye, you're here just in time, tell us a few words."
Xu Ye nodded and smiled, "Okay, then I'll just say a few words."
