Chapter 708 Peng Peng and "Longing for Life"
"I understand."
"It is indeed necessary to change the background."
Li Xiaoping nodded in agreement, resting her hands on her chin, and said in a deep voice: "Otherwise, let's put it in Thailand."
"The northern part is still quite chaotic over there, or Cambodia is also OK, it is even more chaotic."
"Let's go to Thailand." Wu Yuan shook his head, "Thailand is a more well-known country, Cambodia is not well-known in China, and movie fans may not know it."
"Okay, let's just leave it at that, the director and actors are up to you, I don't have time to manage it."
It's just a movie with a box office of 1 billion, Wu Yuan doesn't plan to personally choose the director and actors, including whether the male lead is Xiao Yang or not. Although Xiao Yang's acting is indeed good in the movie, it doesn't mean that only Xiao Yang can play this role.
If nothing else, Huang Bo will definitely play better than Xiao Yang.
It is said that before Wu Yuan woke up from his dream, one of the last few movies he watched was "Wading the Wrathful Sea" played by Huang Bo. The character of the male protagonist in this movie is similar to that of "The Accidental Manslaughter", which is also a story about an honest father who rises up for revenge after his daughter's accident.
Regardless of the plot of the movie, Huang Bo played this character well, and it would be absolutely fine to find him to play in "The Accidental Manslaughter".
And even if Huang Bo was not there, Wu Yuan could easily think of several substitutes in his mind. After all, the character of the male protagonist in "The Accidental Manslaughter" is actually quite distinctive. There is really no shortage of actors who can play the revenge-type male protagonist well in China.
"Is there nothing else this time?" Wu Yuan rubbed his eyebrows and wanted to stand up and leave the office again.
However, Li Xiaoping stopped him again.
"Well, there is one more thing." Li Xiaoping smiled awkwardly and took out another document from the drawer and handed it to Wu Yuan flatteringly.
"It's like this, Director Wu, do you know about slow variety shows?"
Wu Yuan frowned. At this point, Li Xiaoping mentioned slow variety shows?
"Do you mean "Three Meals a Day"?" Wu Yuan asked uncertainly.
"Three Meals a Day" is a self-sufficient organic agricultural life reality variety show produced by tvN TV in South Korea.
The director of this show is Luo Yingxi, who is a well-known variety director in South Korea. He has produced Korean variety shows such as "Two Days and One Night", "Grandpas Over Flowers", "Sisters Over Flowers", and "Youth Over Flowers".
Originally, he was a contracted variety director of KBS, one of the three major TV stations in South Korea, and was later poached by tvN. The "Flowers" series is the variety show he produced on TvN.
Because the Korean site of Guangying Kuaibo has a strategic partnership with TvN, the variety show network broadcast of the "Flowers" series is also on Guangying Kuaibo.
At the end of last year and the beginning of this year, Luo Yingxi launched his new variety show "Three Meals a Day", which was also launched simultaneously on Guangying Kuaibo.
Then this show became popular in South Korea. Whether it is the TV ratings or the online broadcast volume, it is the first variety show in the same period.
It is amazing that this program is different from all the variety shows on the Korean market. While most Korean variety shows focus on topics such as comedy, confrontation, and celebrity love, "Three Meals a Day" takes a different approach and is a program with relatively weak variety elements.
The format of this program is to invite performers to go to the countryside to use organic ingredients to make three meals a day to solve the problem of eating.
In the program, performers not only have to use existing ingredients to make three meals a day, but also be responsible for the planting and harvesting of crops, and pickle different kimchi or brew wine in the appropriate season to fully experience the working life in the countryside.
Simply put, it is to find a group of celebrities to experience rural life in the countryside. There are no deliberate funny links, no competitions, and no variety show CP.
To be honest, just looking at the program introduction will give people a very boring feeling, but it is unexpectedly popular in Korea, and has opened up a new track-slow variety show.
When various outdoor reality shows are still doing tasks and punching in, which makes people aesthetically fatigued, slow variety shows bring new audio-visual experiences to the audience through down-to-earth scenes and healing styles, and have accumulated a large number of exclusive audiences.
Compared with fast variety shows that rely on intense body movements to make people laugh, slow variety shows rely on fresh post-production, color grading, MG animation, and chicken soup narration, focusing on digging out funny points from daily actions.
Slow variety shows are very good at capturing people's hearts. One shot may have a healing effect, and one conversation may trigger resonance with life.
"Three Meals a Day" is such a program.
"Director Wu, you have also watched this program!" Li Xiaoping was a little surprised. She thought that Wu Yuan, who was busy with work, was focused on movies and had no time and interest to watch variety shows, let alone foreign variety shows.
In fact, Wu Yuan had not watched it, but he had read the monthly general report of Guangying Kuaibo and knew the popularity of "Three Meals a Day" in South Korea. In addition, he was not unfamiliar with slow variety shows in his previous life.
So he nodded calmly: "Does the company's variety show department also want to make a slow variety show?"
"Like "Three Meals a Day"?
Before Li Xiaoping nodded, Wu Yuan said without stopping: "This idea is good."
"Young people in urban society now have a fast pace of life and high work pressure. They really need a variety show that can let them slow down and experience life."
"The name of the program can be directly called "Longing for Life"."
"Busy urban life has brought stress and impatience to people. Many urban workers should want to stay away from the hustle and bustle, avoid crowds, and yearn to move from the city to the countryside and breathe natural air."
"We can find a few regular hosts, and then invite guests from the entertainment industry in each issue to live together in the countryside for two days and one night. We can pick in the fields ourselves, build stoves, and use the only traditional daily necessities in the farmhouse to live a self-sufficient life. A self-sufficient life.”
"Let the guests return to life itself, rely on their own labor and efforts to exchange for three meals a day, and then let them cook for themselves and slow down in this fast-paced life."
"Let them feel what life is like picking chrysanthemums under the eastern fence and leisurely seeing Nanshan."
"I believe that this kind of variety show will also bring a sense of relaxation and leisure to the audience, allowing them to appreciate the charm of pastoral scenery and relieve the stress in life and work."
"By the way, if we want to do this show, it would be best to have Peng Peng as a permanent guest. This guy is silly and silly, and he is very suitable for the role of the silly son of a landlord."
"Then we will find two more experienced regular guests. Mr. He from Hunan TV is good. With him, no matter who comes to record the show, he will be able to motivate and mingle with him."
"As another permanent guest, it's best to find someone in the industry who is about the same age as Mr. He and can cook, so you don't have to worry about the guest not knowing how to cook. I believe that most artists in the industry are not afraid of cooking. "Yangchunshui."
"In this way, the two are paired with the younger, and the resident guests also have a family atmosphere. They are like a farmhouse in the countryside, receiving guests one after another."
"What about this idea?"
"." Li Xiaoping looked at Wu Yuan with a dull look on her face, her red lips slightly parted, and murmured a few times without saying anything.
She just started the show, and Director Wu went on a long spiel, going straight through the program to the appointed guests. What else could she say? (End of chapter)
