Chapter 503 The Beginning of Everything
[Flowers and Boys] is a self-guided travel reality show produced and launched by Mango Channel in 2014.
The content is to invite several celebrities with large differences in age and personality to travel to a country where they are unfamiliar with the place and even do not speak the language at all, without an agent, no assistants, and limited daily living expenses. Complete an exotic backpacking journey.
The program team followed and recorded the entire process, allowing the audience to appreciate the cultural beauty along the way and at the same time see the process of getting along with several guests from strangers to familiar ones.
Especially when funds are insufficient and the team faces various problems, how to communicate and solve problems.
[Flower Flower Season 1] was relatively harmonious. The guests at that time were Zheng Peipei, Zhang Kaili, Xu Qing, Liu Tao, Li Fei'er, Zhang Han, Hua Chenyu and other seven people.
This is the first time for everyone to participate in this kind of variety show. Although we are inexperienced, we can handle it in terms of human relations and sophistication.
Teacher Zheng Peipei is the absolute eldest sister, her words have weight and she understands justice, Zhang Kaili is very funny, Liu Tao is very capable and can take care of others, and there is no fault in his conduct.
Li Fei'er has a good temper, Xu is not a bad lover, but she is easily emotional and may fall out at any time. Zhang Han is a bit arbitrary but responsible. Huahua was still a little-known little character at the time, and her brothers and sisters would do whatever they said. What.
Generally speaking, although there were various problems in the first season, everyone communicated and solved them normally, and the atmosphere of getting along was relatively good for more than ten days.
Of course, there will always be some conflicts between a few people who are complete strangers and they are traveling on a budget. Although it is not a big problem, under the editing of the program team, [Flower Flower Season 1] This laid the foundation for "tearing".
After [Flower Flower Season 1] was launched, the unique variety show format quickly attracted the love of many viewers. The ratings exceeded 2 during the same period, making it one of the most popular variety shows in 2014.
I don’t know if the audience likes to watch celebrities go on a trip, or if they like to watch them “tear each other up”.
In the second season, this "tearing" of the show has been completely carried forward.
Jing Bairan, Yang Yang, Zheng Shuang, Mao Amin, Xu Qing, Ning Jing, and Chen Yihan have contributed countless famous variety show scenes to the people across the country.
Of course, the most important thing is the undercurrent and intrigue between the several elder sisters.
At that time, as soon as the show started airing, several people already made a splash with great fanfare and earth-shattering, and the hot searches were taking turns.
Later, he became a god and was jokingly called the ceiling of domestic entertainment reality shows and variety shows by netizens.
The number of famous scenes, the embarrassing, suffocating, shocking, and out-of-the-box scenes contributed to the program are undoubtedly the best in domestic entertainment.
Even if you don’t have someone to chase after, you can easily learn a thing or two from other channels.
For example, Jing Boran said that this program gave him a new understanding of women, Yang Yang was so scared that he did not dare to accept variety shows for the next five years, Shuangzi completely broke his guard, and finally lost control of his emotions. Xu Qing's classic quote "The person from the last season Everything is normal."
After the second season aired, Shuangzi, Mao Amin, Xu Qing, Ning Jing and others were scolded by netizens, and the variety show "Hua Shao" became completely famous.
This is why everyone was surprised when Gu Wei told his friends that he was going to attend [Hua Shao].
On March 5, [Flower Flower Season 3] officially started recording.
Early in the morning, the staff of Mango Channel knocked on the door and came to Gu Wei's home to record the pilot video of this program, which was the "campaign tour guide" segment set up this season.
In fact, in the show "Hua Shao", the tour guide is not an easy job. He is responsible for planning the journey, leading the team, and providing help when the team members encounter difficulties.
Last season Shuangzi had an emotional breakdown during the recording of the show. The main reason was because the show team assigned her the task of being a tour guide, which was tiring and difficult, and no one listened to her. In the end, she simply gave up. Just pretend and reveal your true character.
There are two candidates for tour guide before departure this year, Jing Bairan and Chen Bolin.
According to the rules set by the program team, except for them, the other guests each have one vote to decide who the final tour guide is.
The one who is not selected will be exiled alone, separated from the large group in the first stage of the journey, and go on a solo trip to wild Africa.
As a result, the tour guide who was not a good job in the first place has become a sweet potato. After all, no one wants to leave the team and be exiled to Africa.
"How does the program team arrange for guests traveling alone?"
At home in the [Embassy No. 1 Courtyard] in Beijing, Gu Wei's parents went back after the New Year. He came from Tokyo In the past few days since I came back, I stayed here when I wasn't going to Naza's house.
The staff who came to record the program on Mango Channel today include Wu Mengru, the chief director of "Flower Flower 3".
The recording hasn't started yet. The staff is setting up filming equipment in the corner of the room. Gu Wei is sitting on the sofa in the living room chatting with Director Wu.
"We arranged for Xiaojing to be a tour guide and Chen Bolin went on a solo trip to Africa."
Director Wu took a sip from the water glass on the coffee table in front of him and explained to Gu Wei.
This was arranged in advance, even if Gu Wei didn't ask her for a while, he would still tell the other party.
After all, [Hua Shao] is traveling abroad. If you are alone, you have to go directly to Africa. Visas, air tickets, and various vaccinations all need to be prepared in advance.
It’s impossible to be like what the show arranged. After everyone arrives at the airport, they vote, and if they lose, they immediately push the luggage trolley and fly to Africa.
It must have been decided in advance, and the program team had arranged everything so that everyone could go their separate ways immediately after recording a segment at the airport.
"Is Chen Bolin willing to travel alone?"
Gu Wei doesn't care who is the tour guide or who goes to Africa. He recorded [Hua Shao 3] because of Naza's request. He regards this as a relaxing trip, and it has little to do with him what other people do. "Chen Bolin is still very professional. He accepted our invitation and regarded it as his job. He didn't care what he did.
And I feel that he is still concerned about traveling alone. Rather longing for it.
As for Jing Bairan, he originally did not plan to continue taking over this season of "Flower Master". The recording of the last season also had a greater impact on him.
I persuaded him to come over, saying that the theme of this season is 'Youth Adventure', and the guests are all young people, so there won't be too many problems.
The purpose of finding him is to lead the new guests of this season as an old man. Of course, we cannot arrange for him to travel alone."
Gu Wei nodded.
The two of them met again After chatting for a while about other things about [Hua Shao], Gu Wei learned a lot about the arrangements for the recording of the program from Director Wu.
Wu Mengru knew almost everything about Gu Wei's problems and had an extremely gentle attitude.
There is no way, in Director Wu’s opinion, Gu Wei is the most important person in this season of [Hua Shao], bar none.
Let’s not talk about the effect of the program after it was broadcast. After Gu Wei announced that he would join [Hua Shao 3], various advertisers came to the door one after another.
The investment promotion has already made the program team a lot of money.
And since the program team announced this season’s participating guests online, discussions among netizens and fans have not stopped. Not to mention Gu Wei’s own fans, many CP fans of “Allure Couple” are extremely looking forward to it. Gu Wei and Nazha's performance in "Hua Shao 3".
This season's "Hua Shao 3" can be regarded as a real hit before it is broadcast.
Not long after, the recording of the pilot film began. According to the arrangement of the program team, Gu Wei got a brand new VIVO mobile phone.
Then on the TV at home, two tour guide competitors, Jing Boran and Chen Bolin, started their own live speeches, trying hard to use their words to impress others and canvass votes for themselves.
After this part is completed, the two candidates will meet offline with other people to canvass votes.
The first person who came to Gu Wei's side was Chen Bolin.
He was a little reserved when he arrived at Gu Wei's house. This was the first time the two of them met. Chen Bolin was not an outgoing person, so he didn't know what to say when he walked in.
I just said that I have watched Gu Wei's TV series and movies and I really like his role. Of course, Gu Wei responded with a smile.
"Gu Wei, I hope you can choose me when you vote. I will definitely fulfill my responsibility as a tour guide!"
"I will consider it, come on!"
Gu Wei didn't say yes or no, he just smiled and encouraged him.
The conversation between the two was considered a preliminary acquaintance. Chen Bolin felt that Gu Wei was easy to get along with as a big star, and he felt relieved.
He has naturally watched the first two seasons of [Flower Master]. Although he only regards this as a job, he also hopes that the next 20 days or so can be spent relatively smoothly.
Judging from the composition of the guests, as long as Gu Wei, a popular star, is easy to get along with, there should be no problems with the others.
After all, being a celebrity in the entertainment industry is everything. There are no older artists this season, and Gu Wei is the biggest one.
Not long after Chen Bolin left, Jing Bairan came to visit again.
"Xiaojing, long time no see!"
Gu Wei welcomed the other party in with a smile.
He and Jing Bairan were not familiar with each other. The last time they met was at Huang Xiaoming's wedding. He and Jing Bairan were both members of the groomsmen group. It was a one-time acquaintance and there was no communication at that time.
"Long time no see. I didn't expect you to come to [Hua Shao]. Please take care of me in the next month."
Jing Bairan's posture was lower.
Originally, he had some objections to Gu Wei because of Ni Ni's incident, but later he figured it out. He had a weak personality and was not suitable for the enterprising and motivated Ni Ni. Moreover, the other party had always regarded him as a friend. .
Of course, it has something to do with the fact that he recently fell in love with a model.
With the knot in his heart gone, Jing Boran can now face up to the gap between himself and Gu Wei. He will not deliberately make friends with each other again when he sees him again, but given the huge gap in status, the most basic courtesy must be Must have.
"Take care of each other. This is my first time participating in this kind of variety show. In the future, I will rely on your experience, Xiaojing."
Gu Wei didn't even know that Jing Boran had ever treated Ni Ni because of him. He had his share of dissatisfactions.
The two chatted politely for a while, without saying anything too nutritious, and finally asked Gu Wei to vote for him as usual.
Jing Bairan's face was a little complicated when he came out of Gu Wei's house. He could also tell from the other person's attitude towards him that Gu Wei regarded him as a stranger he had met once.
The most helpless thing in this world is that you treat others as enemies, and others treat you as a passerby...
We will enter Hua Shao 3 later. If you don’t like variety shows, you can skip it. Good luck!
