This Star Doesn’t Work Overtime

Chapter 404 402. The madness caused by the knight’s true deeds! Draw lots to decide the role!

  Role-playing variety shows are not uncommon.

However, they are basically all kinds of game-based entertainment variety shows.

This is definitely the first time that a serious cultural variety show like CCTV also engages in role-playing.

 The people on the program team and the contestants from both teams are a bit fresh.

Similarly, many people in the entertainment industry at the scene also felt that it was very new, but at the same time, some people were not very optimistic about it.

  After all, new attempts naturally involve risks.

 However, there are risks, which will be accompanied by high profits. If this program format is accepted by the audience, the ratings may exceed imagination.

 Of course, this is not new to Wang Cheng.

 Because, he had seen a similar program on the CCTV stage in his previous life, and it was popular for a while.

For example, National Treasure is one of the representatives. Every national treasure will have a stage play about the birth of the national treasure. Naturally, role play is a must. It was very popular at the time and increased the audience's in-depth understanding of the national treasure. It made the national treasure no longer so mysterious and knew what it was. This is how national treasures are born.

 And today…

CCTV’s role-playing cultural program is the first of its kind in the world.

Moreover, Wang Cheng looked at the detailed information that Xia Xi brought over. It was completely different from the national treasure stage play in his memory.

 The stage play of National Treasure is a re-enactment of what happened in history, plus some artistic processing, that's all, and it won't be too different from the information in the history books.

but…

The role-playing in today’s program is to do something that has never happened in history.

for example.

The core dynasty of today's program is the Song Dynasty, so some famous people from the history of the Song Dynasty are selected for role play, and according to the requirements of the judges and the program team, some creations are based on this character background, and then based on this The works created will be graded.

 In Wang Cheng’s view, this is an extremely strict propositional composition.

Xia Xi saw that Wang Cheng seemed to be looking at the information he had brought more seriously, so he hurriedly and excitedly explained it to Wang Cheng in detail.

 This was the only opportunity for her to have a face-to-face communication with Wang Cheng in the past two days, so she naturally had to seize the opportunity quickly.

However, after just hearing a few words from her, Wang Cheng said calmly: "Okay, I understand, you go and do your work."

Xia Xi was a little depressed, but then she kept smiling and said: "Following you is my current job. The program team has selected some celebrities from the two Song Dynasties. When the time comes, you and the other two groups of contestants will draw lots to decide who will be selected. , just play whoever you want to play. So far, no one knows who they want to play!"

 Wang Cheng: “Yes, I understand.”

 After saying that, Wang Cheng ignored Xia Xi and continued to pick up a book and read it.

He has read a lot of history books about the Song Dynasty recently. Many of the famous people there are similar to what he remembers, but their life circumstances are completely different!

There are Sansu whom he is very familiar with, including Yue Fei, Fan Zhongyan, Wang Anshi, Sima Guang, etc...

 It's just that what these people did was different from what he remembered.

Xia Xi sighed in her heart, and immediately sat down next to Wang Cheng, without caring about the surprised looks of many program staff around her and many people in the Beijing circle who knew her in the audience.

Because in the eyes of many CCTV employees, Xia Xi is an absolutely superior goddess. No matter in terms of appearance, temperament, knowledge, talent, or family background, she is far superior to ordinary people. She is someone that ordinary people will never be able to contact or see in their lifetime. The goddess who arrived.

 However, at this time, Xia Xi was like a suitor trying his best to please the goddess next to Wang Cheng...

Wang Cheng ignored her.

 “Wang Cheng’s charm, even Xia Xi can’t stop it!”

"No, when Wang Cheng came in just now, I was stunned as a man and ignored Xia Xi. Her appearance and temperament are really amazing. Usually when Xia Xi comes, I can't help but look at Xia Xi Yes, but next to Wang Cheng, she seems very ordinary."

“I heard that Taili asked Xia Xi to serve as Wang Cheng’s assistant tour guide for a few days, specifically to serve Wang Cheng.”

"Don't use the word "serve", it would be more accurate to say "please". Now that Wang Cheng is so popular, even CCTV wants to please him. It is said that this time we invited Wang Cheng to come over and paid him a horrifyingly high advertising fee, which broke the entertainment industry. Notice fee records.”

“How much is it? I heard it’s very high, but there’s no specific number.”

“I don’t know how much it is, but it is definitely the highest single-issue notice fee in history.”

“So much money and resources have been spent on this new program. If it doesn’t achieve ratings, we will all be in trouble in the future..."

"With Wang Cheng here, even if the show fails, Wang Cheng can make the ratings no less than four points. For a new show, a four-point rating is already very successful!"

“That was in the past, and a ratings of four points was a miracle. But now if Wang Cheng is here, if the ratings are less than five points, it is a failure.”

“Stop talking, let’s do it quickly. I don’t care what Lao Yang and Director Li are busy with.”

 …

 The people in the program team are all busy.

 Many spectators in the audience were chatting and watching the fun.

 Zhang Huizhong, Li Guang, and Wu Tong sat together. They had understood the core of the program and the truth behind it, and they were all a little worried.

Worry…

Wang Cheng will be targeted by two prestigious schools and forces in Beijing.

If Wang Cheng really gave it to them for free, it would have a big blow to Wang Cheng's popularity and popularity.

Then, when they cooperate with Wang Cheng in the future, it will be almost impossible to create higher ratings.

 Zhang Huizhong said in a helpless tone: "Hey, Rubik's Cube Entertainment has really tried its best to suppress Wang Cheng. Two famous schools, Mizuki and Beijing University, have joined forces to snipe Wang Cheng. It's really a long time since we last."

Li Guang said objectively: "This is not the ability of Rubik's Cube Entertainment. Lao Qin and Shen Shenghui do not have the ability to mobilize these two prestigious schools to cooperate with CCTV. It's just that Wang Cheng happened to be targeted by them. Role-playing, and he is still a Even if Wang Cheng loses in a human-defended competition against two prestigious schools, he will be honored even if he loses."

Wu Tong frowned slightly. Recently, Jiangsu and Zhejiang Satellite TV had encountered a public opinion crisis. They wanted to invite Wang Cheng to produce a program to restore the decline and divert public opinion's attention. Therefore, he regretted not spending a lot of money to **** Wang Cheng from CCTV. He should have mentioned it again yesterday. Price increase.

A few people looked around and felt that CCTV's background was, after all, different from their local stations.

 Usually when they go to other TV stations to participate in program recordings, they are all absolutely big names, and they will be accompanied by the TV station and program team leaders when they are there.

 But here today, no one paid any attention to them.

The scene was almost full of big names in culture and entertainment. No one had a lower status than them. Most of them had a much higher status than them. Naturally, no one paid attention to them. but…

As a newcomer who just debuted this year, Wen Yixiao is rarely surrounded by several big guys here.

because…

 She has what they want in her hands.

“Girl from the Wen family, can you lend me the painting of a knight’s travels that you have?”

 An old man asked Wen Yixiao.

This old man was a cultural professor of the same generation as Grandpa Wen Yixiao, and he knew her grandfather. Naturally, Wen Yixiao did not dare to refuse directly, and responded: "I'm sorry, Grandpa Li, I didn't bring it! Such a precious thing, I It’s impossible to carry it with you, I’ll show it to you next time I have a chance!”

Grandpa Li shook his head and turned away. Although he could see that Wen Yixiao was dealing with him, he couldn't force Wen Yixiao to do anything.

　　Several big names in the cultural circle came to borrow the painting "The Knight's Journey" from Wen Yixiao, but Wen Yixiao rejected them all. After finally breaking free from the interception of the cultural circle, Wen Yixiao quickly walked backstage, hoping to meet Wang Cheng.

However, after taking two steps, Qin Shangran said to Wen Yixiao: "Yixiao, I heard Director Li say, do you want to perform on stage?"

Wen Yixiao naturally knew Qin Shangran and said quickly: "Yes, Director Qin, is there any chance for me to perform? I don't need the notification fee!"

Qin Shangran said in a low voice: "The format of this program is role-playing, so you have a lot of opportunities to perform. I can help you arrange it!"

Wen Yixiao stared at Qin Shangran and asked directly: "Director Qin, what do you want?"

Qin Shangran smiled and said: "Don't be so serious. Don't worry, I'm not a bad person. I have the same purpose as the others just now. Lend me Wang Cheng's cursive calligraphy for a month, and I will arrange for you to become Wang Cheng As a full-time backup dancer, whenever Wang Cheng needs him on stage, you will go up and appear next to him, how about it?"

When Wen Yixiao heard Qin Shangran's purpose, she originally wanted to reject it outright, but when she heard the benefits Qin Shangran offered, she hesitated.

 Being able to perform next to Wang Cheng on stage is her dream opportunity.

only…

Wang Cheng’s works are also a restricted area that she cannot compromise.

After hesitating for a few seconds, Wen Yixiao said seriously: "Director Qin, one month is too long. One minute, and you are looking at me in front of me for one minute. You can't leave my sight. I will take you away after one minute!" "

One minute?

Qin Shangran immediately shook his head: "This is impossible, one minute is too short, one week is my bottom line. I promise to return it to you intact."

 Give it back to me intact?

Wen Yixiao was skeptical about this and said in a serious tone: "Director Qin, my bottom line is half an hour. It will be impossible for more than half an hour. Because I don't allow this work to leave my sight. If you don't Agreed, forget it! There will be opportunities to collaborate with Wang Cheng in the future, but if I lose this work, I will regret it for the rest of my life."

Qin Shangran was silent for a moment and saw that Wen Yixiao really didn't want to discuss it.

However, half an hour was too short. It was not enough for him to take it home and study it carefully, nor was it enough for him to invite friends from the Beijing circle to come up and watch it and show it off.

He believes that if he can own this piece of chivalry, he will definitely become the most dazzling one in the Beijing circle in a short time. Whether it is the superior leaders or the big shots in the cultural circle, they will definitely find a way to come to him to watch and learn. , even borrowing!

He can use this to make a lot of connections and accumulate network capital for future promotions!

 However, half an hour is not enough for him to operate.

Seeing that Qin Shangran was still hesitating in silence, Wen Yixiao glanced at the backstage and saw Xia Xi sitting directly next to Wang Cheng. A trace of anxiety flashed in her eyes and she whispered: "Director Qin, if you don't want to Never mind."

 After saying that, Wen Yixiao walked backstage, trying to get a seat in advance and sit next to Wang Cheng.

Qin Shangran suddenly said at this time: "Okay, okay! I'll ask Director Li to arrange a scene for you later!"

Wen Yixiao was stunned for a moment, and then agreed: "Okay, wait until today's show is over! I can stay here for half an hour, and I will leave in half an hour!"

Qin Shangran smiled bitterly and felt that Wen Yixiao and Wang Cheng were somewhat similar. Both had straightforward personalities and styles that did not allow for negotiation.

 Such a young man, if he were in the past, he would definitely sneer at him.

 But now, he has to endure it again and again.

 Because, he really wants something from others.

Wen Yixiao left Qin Shangran, quickly came to the backstage, sat next to Wang Cheng, and said with a smile: "Wang Cheng, we can work together again."

Wang Cheng knew who it was by smelling it without even looking. Without taking his eyes off the book, he said calmly: "Yes!"

He just hummed without even looking at Wen Yixiao. Wen Yixiao didn't take it seriously and just sat next to him: "I have been working on new songs in Beijing these days. They will be officially released tomorrow. The first official album has a total of six songs." A new song, released together. Do you have any plans to produce a new song recently? I think many fans are waiting for your new song, and I am one of them."

 Wang Cheng: “No!”

 After saying that, Wang Cheng ignored Wen Yixiao. Wen Yixiao said oh, stopped talking and kept quiet, knowing that Wang Cheng didn't like talking and making noise at this time, which would disturb his reading.

Xia Xi, who had been keeping quiet next to her, looked at Wen Yixiao, who was as humble as herself, and felt a little better. She knew that Wen Yixiao had been wronged more than herself, but she kept insisting and looked at it curiously. Wen Yixiao, Xia Xi was a little surprised when she saw her appearance and temperament, which was like a fairy descending from heaven, and then she felt that she was not much worse.

 However, Xia Xi looked at Wang Cheng again and found that Wang Cheng really didn't look at Wen Yixiao the whole time.

 This point made Xia Xi helpless and admired, but also a little doubtful!

 Is Wang Cheng not interested in women?

 Have problems with your sexual orientation?

 Otherwise, she and Wen Yixiao were sitting on both sides of Wang Cheng, and Wang Cheng didn't even look at her. Is this something a normal man can do?

 After a while…

An Keru, Zhu Ziqi, Han Xiao, and media person Lin Mi all came and sat next to them, in the same row as Wang Cheng.

Only then did Xia Xi know that the rumors in these circles were all true!

 “Wang Cheng, come here, we’ve drawn lots!”

Not far away, Li Cheng waved to Wang Cheng and shouted!

Beside Li Cheng, there were more than a dozen players from the two teams including Liang Xiaoliang and Chen Yuqi!

Wang Cheng put down his book, stood up and walked over.

 All eyes on and off the stage were once again focused on Wang Cheng.

More than a dozen players from the two teams also stared at Wang Cheng...

Li Cheng's words interrupted the gazes of more than a dozen contestants: "Each of you will draw three characters, perform three performances, and play one of the characters in each performance. Now let's draw lots...who comes first!"
