In the video, Wang Keng said with a whisper: "...I especially appreciate the movie "Operation Mekong". Whether it is the script, the actor, the production team, or the shooting team, they are very serious and dedicated. Especially director Li Zhifan, he has done what a real director should do, which is what our entire industry should learn..."

"hehe!"

Seeing his righteous words, Zhou Ke couldn't help but smile, "This flattery is too much, right?"

"Let him take a photo!"

Li Zhifan smiled and disagreed. Someone must have handed Wang Keng this. Otherwise, with his characteristics of this cannon, he would definitely not praise a colleague. There are so many directors in China who are better than Li Zhifan. Why don’t anyone praise him?

Moreover, in Li Zhifan's impression, Wang Keng seemed to have never praised anyone, and scolded his son for entering the industry for filming TV. Now that he suddenly transformed, it was definitely not his own idea.

Perhaps before this "performance" was completed, I had already scolded Li Zhifan in my heart for many times.

After dragging the progress bar for a few minutes, Li Zhifan turned off the video, took off the headphones, put away the laptop after turning off the phone, and turned around and hugged Zhou Ke: "Go to sleep!"

"Yeah!" Zhou Ke retracted into the quilt, and as soon as he turned off the light, he suddenly whispered, "Don't catch it, squeeze it out..."

"Okay, okay!"

Li Zhifan quickly stopped, but he was worried and asked with a chuckle: "Wife, I want to..."

"Don't think about it!"

"Just want to..."

"What should I do if the child is asleep and wakes up!"

"Hold on your word and take your time!"

"don't want……"

“…”

...

In a blink of an eye, a week later.

Li Zhifan set off and returned home.

This time I came back because I had a new job.

At the launch conference of the Shi Line last year, Li Zhifan announced that he would make new talent shows in the past two years, but the radio and television industry introduced restrictions on variety shows, and it is not allowed to be over-entered. Only one of the pictures of music and singing programs will be distributed in each quarter, which will lead to the inability to produce talent shows this year.

However, I have signed a production agreement with Mango TV and Mango TV before. The talent show cannot be done, and there must be another variety show. Li Zhifan originally planned to directly do the second season of "Star Detective", but this show is not allowed to be on the stars by radio and television, so even if it is done, it is meaningless.

In desperation, Li Zhifan had to take out the treasure that was in the box - the variety show "Extreme Challenge" that he had previously snatched from the man's helper.

Although Li Zhifan has not served as the chief director or producer of a variety show, even "Star Detective" has only produced the first three episodes, and then handed over to the team to handle it. In the end, the actual chief director and general production have become two young people born in the 1990s respectively.

However, he is still very confident in producing a star-level variety show.

At least in terms of concepts and concepts, there are reference objects, and in terms of post-production, there are technical and capable.

Mango Golden Eagle Making Center.

As soon as Li Zhifan got off the plane, he came here directly.

The conference room was full of people, sometimes employees of the TV program production department, including those of Mango TV and those of Mango TV.

In addition, Huang Tianhai was also present.

The vacancy for Li Zhifan to do this program is from Huang Tianhai’s production team.

If Li Zhifan had not been broadcasted last year, the program originally scheduled to be broadcasted would be the work of Huang Tianhai's team. As for what they did, that would be another matter.

But later Li Zhifan's timeline stood up and reached an agreement with the teams of Mango TV, Mango TV, and Huang Tianhai to jointly produce a singing talent show.

With Li Zhifan's name, this talent show will definitely be popular. Even if it is not the national level, it is a shocking bullet for the reshuffle in the circle.

After the incident, Huang Tianhai's team was in an instant and the morale of the army was in chaos. They even thought about doing their own planning, just need Li Zhifan to be a name or a host guest, and there was also some people involved in the timeline.

But Li Zhifan suddenly said that he had a new program planning that could replace the original plan, which made Huang Tianhai's team feel pressured and relaxed, and he was also very curious about what this new plan looked like.

"Have you got off the plane?"

"I left the airport half an hour ago? Why haven't I come yet!"

"I don't know what kind of show this time."

"Who knows!"

"Bless, I hope this show is more reliable and not killed by radio and television!"

"Director Li is no longer the same as before. His "Mekong River" is so taken care of by the superiors. I believe that this new variety show will not cause trouble for radio and television, right?"

"I hope! It's a big deal! When I applied for a license last year, Lizhitai inserted a stick and pried away our license. If I apply for this photo now, haha, they will definitely not be our Director Li's opponent."

"The new talent show at Lizhitai is in the same period as us. I wonder if this show can be done by them!"

"Oh, it's hard to say! They and Aihe Video jointly produced it, and they were still very gimmick hip-hop rap. It is said that the production cost of the program has been 200 million yuan. They also hired the most popular young king Ye Tao as the mentor. They started production a month ago. The title of the program has not been decided yet, and the Internet has been circulating. The inside story of each of them has been exposed, attracting passers-by. When the time comes, I don't know how to hype it up."

Just as everyone was talking, the door of the conference room was pushed open, and a production director of Mango Station walked in and shouted: "Quiet! Director Li is here immediately, get ready to welcome!"

Everyone sat upright immediately and prepared to applaud.

After waiting for less than half a minute, Li Zhifan's figure appeared at the door of the conference room.

As soon as he saw his face, applause burst out from the conference room.

Li Zhifan walked into the door, came to the center, shook hands with Huang Tianhai and several senior executives of Mango TV, and then turned around and said to everyone below: "Stop, listen to me!"

The conference room suddenly became quiet, everyone pricked up their ears and carefully posed for listening to the class.

"Before I come up with this idea, I would like to ask everyone, the current popular variety shows have all the disadvantages!"

Li Zhifan's tone was stable, but he said without doubt.

The people below looked at each other and said that if you want to talk about the disadvantages, you don’t have to think about it. Just ask netizens for negative comments online, and you can talk a lot.

But they don’t understand Li Zhifan’s intention, they really just say that the disadvantages are as simple as this?

After they talked about the ills, Li Zhifan asked the new program to completely eliminate these ills!

Many of them are veterans who are variety shows. They know some unspoken rules that must exist in the variety show industry. Even if netizens scold them to death, they must do this.

There are also some bloody plots that must exist, otherwise how can we hype and promote it?

"No need to be restrained!"

Li Zhifan smiled faintly, "Just say it! Including our Mango TV variety show, I believe this is what everyone knows best? I believe many people have watched the negative reviews of my TV show online, and they must have a lot of experience."

Seeing that no one stood up and spoke below, Huang Tianhai was the first to speak: "Let's do this, I'll set an example, let me say a few points first. The first point I want to say is the shady problem. When we do variety shows, in fact, sometimes we really can't offend some people. Their energy may cause the entire program team to be freed! So there is no way. Sometimes we can only pinch our noses and eat shit and do something that is sorry for our conscience!"

All the staff below nodded and agreed with what Huang Tianhai said. For them, if such things are caused, they will face three grievances, face the grievances of being threatened, face the grievances of those artists who have been damaged by the shady scenes, and more importantly, face the grievances of the audience's accusations.

"good!"

Li Zhifan applauded, "What Director Huang said is very important, let's write him down."

As he said that, Li Zhifan picked up the pen, turned around and wrote down the two big words "shady" on the whiteboard behind him.

"Director Huang, please continue to say the second one!" Li Zhifan turned around and said after writing.

"Well!" Huang Tianhai said, "The second thing I want to talk about is the bloody plot. When we conceived a program, we involuntarily brought the bloody plot that is most likely to touch the audience in the drama. Although some viewers will criticize it, we know that with these plots, our program can have publicity highlights, hype gimmicks, and even some sensational bloody plots, which can capture the tears of many viewers."

"A bloody plot!" Li Zhifan said, writing these four words on the whiteboard.

This time, Huang Tianhai continued to say, "The third and most important point is humility! Many times the dark side is not because of the big names of guests, but because our program team is too humble. From directors, producers, and even to every fixed mc, in order to make the guests happy and to establish a good relationship with these people, we can invite them to make some compromises and humble plays. We could have won easily, but it was difficult to act on purpose, or even lose. I empathized with this. I saw the satisfied departure several times, but I felt more flawed in my heart."

This time, Li Zhifan did not write the word "humility", but wrote the word "losing the spirit of the competition".

Humility is not a bad thing, especially in reality shows, some humility is indeed from the hearts of the guests.

However, once this humility spreads, it becomes a bad thing. It loses the spirit of the game, does not play the game seriously, and the desire to win is gone. I think I have gained a good reputation, but in fact I lose the original intention of every game.

"Okay, I'll just talk about these three! Everyone will continue to speak enthusiastically."

After Huang Tianhai finished speaking, he looked back at the whiteboard. When he saw the six words "losing the spirit of the game", he was obviously stunned and felt that Li Zhifan's writing this was more appropriate than his "humility".

With Huang Tianhai taking the lead, his speeches later became much bolder.

"I think the most unbearable thing is that the show's lines are dramatic. Some shows are even equipped with screenwriters to write every sentence for the actors in front of the camera. If you say it well, those who are not good can't be fake anymore."

"I don't like the show being too straightforward. It should be like a brain-burning suspense drama, which makes people unable to see clearly, understand and guess the final ending, which is interesting."

"Haha, you are still immersed in the production of "Star Detective" and haven't come back to your senses?"

"Yes, yes, yes, the editor is actually the most hateful. What kind of screenwriter do you want in a reality show?"

"Look at what you said, we have messed with you. Can we call the director? We don't write lines, we just write the story outline and the rules of the game!"

"But sometimes you do ask the guests to say some of the lines you wrote!"

"Then, that's the director's problem and the producer's problem. Can we blame us? I don't want to work easily? I just want to give those artists a joke that they want to be funny every day?"

“…”

The conference room suddenly became a debate venue, because every line had shady curtains, lights, props, and stage teams were not prepared enough to be scolded, and even if they were too luxurious (injected advertisements or something). When someone pointed out some of their problems, he immediately called back and fought back.

But no one of them can scold the director team, and the small lines are all in a row, which makes me angry when I say them.

Li Zhifan stood on the stage and looked at the people below with a smile. No matter how quarrels were, he heard a derogatory word and wrote one on the whiteboard.

What kind of game content is empty and false, the plot is awkward, and the stars who don’t have a sense of variety show are invited to come here just for fame. In order to create topics, they have to hype up CPs, especially male and female CPs, etc.
