Chapter 572 Making the Audience Happy Is the Most Important Thing
As a famous actor in the comedy world, Mo Xincheng is naturally very concerned about various comedy works on the market.
His main job is an actor, but he is also a screenwriter and director. Although some of the TV series he starred in have the names of other people in the director and screenwriter columns, these people have said in offline interviews that the filming process The Central Capital was led by Mo Xincheng.
Unlike directors like Yang Baoyin, Mo Xincheng acted.
Yang Baoyin can only direct, but not act.
Yang Baoyin can only be a comedy director, while Mo Xincheng is an artist.
He has seen films such as "Never Expected" and "Tang Bohu Spots Autumn Fragrance".
He is also very familiar with some memes on the Internet, and they seem to have no difficulty.
Xu Ye smiled and said, "You praise me too much."
Mo Xincheng's face was filled with laughter. How could he be so proud of this?
"You two chat, I'm going out first." Yao Zhidao.
He stood up and left, closing the door to the room.
The atmosphere in the room was a little anxious for a while.
Xu Ye looked at Mo Xincheng and said, "Teacher, how about I dance for you?"
Mo Xincheng really didn't hold back now.
Why don't you dance when you have nothing to do?
What's so good about a grown man like you dancing?
He's also a comedian, but he's not what he looks like on screen.
Shock!
It turns out that Xu Ye's acting skills are not good, he just acted in his true colors.
Mo Xincheng finally understood why Xu Ye played Wu LiTou so well.
Your kid is really sick!
"There's no need to dance. I want to discuss the creation of nonsensical comedy with you."
After reading Xu Ye's works, Mo Xincheng became interested in the nonsensical expression technique.
He also looked back at his previous works, and there was some baggage in them that was actually nonsensical.
It's just that he didn't delve deeply into the content at that time, and still took the path of creating baggage from the story structure and character identity.
However, Xu Ye systematically used nonsensical techniques and gave this form of comedy a name.
This is not just about making some comedy works, but creating a new comedy genre in Chinese literary and artistic works.
Mo Xincheng said so, and Xu Ye also understood Mo Xincheng's attitude. It was obvious that Mo Xincheng's and Yang Baoyin's attitudes were different.
Old artists see things differently.
In this brief exchange, the two had a great time talking.
At the end, Mo Xincheng asked: "Brother Xu, do you think that for a comedy, is the way of expression more important, or the intention?"
Xu Ye smiled and said: "Both of these are not important. Making the audience happy is the most important, and everything else is secondary."
Mo Xincheng nodded and laughed, "That's right!"
The two of them stood up and left Yao Zhi's office without saying anything more.
Mo Xincheng did not come here to be a director this time, but was invited to be a celebrity guest.
If Mo Xincheng is really pulled out to participate in the competition, then all other mentors will stop playing.
The players naturally wanted to cooperate with Mo Xincheng more.
When the two of them walked towards the studio together, Yang Baoyin happened to come out of the room.
When he saw the figures of Xu Ye and Mo Xincheng, his pupils shrank slightly.
"How did they get together?"
Mo Xincheng's status in the circle was much higher than him. He tried to cooperate with Mo Xincheng several times but failed. People looked down on his talent and declined him.
"It's okay, it's okay. Teacher Mo doesn't even like my notebook, and he definitely doesn't like Xu Ye's notebook. It's probably just Teacher Mo who gave Xu Ye some pointers. The two of them won't have a chance to cooperate!"
Yang Baoyin comforted himself in his heart.
If Mo Xincheng was willing to cooperate with Xu Ye but not with him, it would be a sharp stab in his heart.
More importantly, working with Xu Ye is still a matter of attitude.
Yang Baoyin stepped forward and said hello to Mo Xincheng before taking the first step.
By the time he sat down at the instructor's seat, Hu Jinping was already sitting here.
Hu Jinping has always been very enthusiastic. When he saw Yang Baoyin coming, he said hello and asked, "How are Director Yang's preparations for this show?"
"It's not bad." Yang Baoyin said.
He suddenly thought of something and asked: "Is there no mentor who will appear in person this time?"
Hu Jinping knew what Yang Baoyin meant as soon as he heard it.
Isn't this just asking about Xu Ye's situation?
But there is nothing to hide.
"It's gone this time." Hu Jinping said.
"Really? Then it's finally fair this time." Yang Baoyin said in a strange tone.
Hu Jinping looked down upon people like Yang Baoyin.
What's your ability to say bad things about people behind their backs? If you have the guts to say it in front of Xu Ye, you don't know that you can't speak ill of Xu Ye.
Hu Jinping smiled and said: "Yes, if I lose to Xu Ye this time, I won't have room to show off my old face."
Yang Baoyin's expression suddenly froze.
The last time he lost, he felt that a large part of the reason was that Xu Ye played in person.
Xu Ye's acting skills and popularity can be said to be the best in this show.
You have already finished the game yourself, so it is normal for you to win.
"The actors in Xu Ye's team are all leftovers from our selection. Except for the Liu Bo he brought, the level of others is average." Yang Baoyin thought to himself.
At this time, Xu Ye also sat on the instructor's seat and started chatting with Hu Jinping.
After the other two instructors were seated, the recording of the program officially began.
After the host introduced the mentor, he introduced the celebrity guests this time.
Mo Xincheng's arrival drew cheers from the audience.
Then, the performance officially started.
Backstage, each team had drawn their performance order.
The first one to play was Feng Yan’s team.
The keyword Feng Yan drew at that time was sports, and her story told what happened when a couple watched a football match together.
The plot of the entire sketch is quite satisfactory, and many ridiculous things happened in the process.
Xu Ye also laughed out loud several times.
After Feng Yan's program ended, it was Hu Jinping's sketch.
The key word Hu Jinping drew last time was "dumplings".
This time, Hu Jinping went all out.
The name of his skit is "Dumplings Dumplings Dumplings".
When creating this sketch, Hu Jinping was also inspired by Xu Ye.
There are some plots in idol dramas that the audience doesn't like to watch, but in Xu Ye's hands they turn into laughing spots.
The same is true in "The Master and Me".
Since the audience is disgusted with dumplings, he will go all out and do the opposite.
I play with myself!
The overall effect of this program was quite good, and the audience burst into laughter from time to time.
After performing these two sketches, Yang Baoyin's face was very gloomy.
Because some nonsensical content was used in these two sketches, it was obvious that they were learned from Xu Ye.
In fact, since "Unexpectedly" was aired, the trend of nonsensical comedies has been picked up.
Some creators are also incorporating this technique into their own works.
The most prominent thing is not the film and television series, but the short video.
Many funny video bloggers in short videos have regarded Xu Ye as their idol and their ancestor.
However, among the many works, the best ones are those of Xu Ye.
The short video is okay, none of us are professional actors, just watch the pictures and have fun.
Some of the works that make it to the screen are a little less interesting.
Many netizens are still urging Xu Ye to speed up, otherwise there will be no more watching.
The more popular the nonsense becomes, the more embarrassed Yang Baoyin becomes.
You say it's nonsensical and low-level. Now it's not just the private sector that's playing it, but some practitioners are also playing it.
Is it low-level or not? Can everyone be clear about it?
When it was Yang Baoyin's turn to comment, he only said one sentence.
"It's quite funny, but it's not artistic."
After hearing his words, Mo Xincheng at the celebrity guest table frowned slightly.
Many viewers at the scene also knew Yang Baoyin's attitude, but as time passed, some people who originally thought Yang Baoyin's words made sense also had a question in their hearts.
Isn't it funny enough?
Hu Jinping smiled and said: "Then I'll look forward to Director Yang's work."
The third player to appear was Yang Baoyin’s team.
The keyword he drew last time was "young master", and his sketch told the story of a young master from a wealthy family who left home to go shopping for the first time.
Yang Baoyin here uses the contrast between the identity of the young master and the identity of ordinary people on the street to create burdens.
The young master, who knew nothing about ordinary people's lives, caused some funny things.
It's just that Xu Ye couldn't laugh after watching this skit.
Some places are just too awkward.
The atmosphere at the scene was obviously worse than when Hu Jinping was there.
After the skit performance ended, Yang Baoyin immediately began to speak.
"Before voting, I have a few words to say. I incorporated a lot of small details into this sketch, but because this is a stage, some things cannot be perfectly displayed, such as..."
Yang Baoyin started talking nonstop.
Backstage, Yao Zhi was a little nervous.
He really thought that Yang Baoyin turned on Yang Baoyin's microphone just by saying a few words, but it turned out that Yang Baoyin had already been talking for five minutes.
He kept explaining how exquisite the design was and what the story wanted to express.
It doesn’t matter if you don’t understand, I’ll explain it to you again.
In the end, Yao Zhi really had no choice but to say to Hu Jinping: "Teacher Hu, please stop him."
Hu Jinping had long been tired of hearing this.
What your intentions are should be left to the audience to understand and figure out what the meaning of your persistent talk is.
Just tell me whether the audience laughed or not.
While Yang Baoyin was talking non-stop, Hu Jinping said with a smile: "Director Yang, I see you have been talking for a long time, it's time to drink a bottle of our juice, this is freshly squeezed juice, there are no additives at all. "
Hu Jinping handed a bottle of juice on the table to Yang Baoyin and placed an advertisement along the way.
Taking this opportunity, the host immediately said: "The voting begins!"
When the final voting results came out, Yang Baoyin's total number of votes was 172, which was the same as Hu Jinping's.
After seeing the results, Yang Baoyin breathed a sigh of relief.
He almost thought he couldn't even fight Hu Jinping.
A tie vote would be within his acceptable range.
The penultimate performer was Xu Ye's team.
The host announced: "Brother, why don't you laugh? The sketch "My Girlfriend Is Here" is for us!"
