Chapter 307 Leading the Industry for Decades

In Pu Tong's opinion, Xu Lei is already a top entertainment variety show director...

Of course, this top variety show director must have an "entertainment" prefix. He is very suitable for shooting life-style outdoor reality show variety shows, but he is not suitable for talent shows and competition variety shows.

For example, he is completely unsuitable for serious variety shows like "Chinese Character Spelling Competition".

Every inch has its own strengths and weaknesses. For a variety show director like Xu Lei who has obvious strengths and weaknesses, the most suitable development route is to play to his strengths and avoid his weaknesses.

Xu Lei: [Variety show ideas? ]

When he heard that Pu Tong was going to give him a variety show idea, even Xu Lei, who was well-informed, was immediately looking forward to it. He slowly got up from his office chair and waited for Pu Tong's next words.

I have to admit that this kid is really a genius in making variety shows. He can think of such a good idea as Chinese character dictation for the first time.

It's not just that the filming is well-received and popular, but it's also very important that the copyright was bought by CCTV, which is not easy.

Although in his opinion, this episode still has some flaws, these flaws are due to lack of experience, which can be completely compensated later.

The important thing is this talent...

This guy is too weird, with all kinds of ideas coming out one after another. He still needs to listen to his ideas about variety shows.

Pu Tong's innovative ideas, plus his own directing experience, are a perfect match.

He Xu Lei has never been defeated by anyone, but the moment he bowed his head to Pu Tong, he was indeed a head shorter.

However, when he thought of the title of "master and apprentice", Xu Lei felt uncomfortable all over again and began to walk around the office. Seeing him like this, the staff who edited the program outside did not dare to work and slack off, and they were also much more energetic.

Pu Tong: [I think you are more suitable for entertainment variety shows...]

Xu Lei: [Yes, but there are too many entertainment variety shows, it is difficult to shoot highlights, and it has reached the upper limit, so I am eager to seek a breakthrough. ]

This is indeed his pain point. If he hadn't been anxious to make this variety show more successful, he wouldn't have been so eager to achieve success that he lost his mind for a while and caused the program to collapse in the middle of the show.

However, it is good that the program can be landed smoothly now, which is considered to be timely stop loss.

Xu Lei also knows that he is suitable for shooting entertainment variety shows, but entertainment variety shows are always the same routine, inviting celebrities, arranging tasks, various challenges...

It is difficult for him to improve if he always shoots these things.

I thought Pu Tong could give him some innovative suggestions, but I didn't expect that he would still let him shoot entertainment variety shows. Xu Lei immediately lost interest.

The road of entertainment variety shows has come to the end.

Xu Lei: [I'll think about your advertising. Forget about the variety show ideas. I'll go and see the editing of the program. ]

Pu Tong saw Xu Lei's implicit meaning at a glance. He didn't believe in himself. Could it be that in his eyes, he couldn't give a better entertainment variety show?

If I don't show you my skills, you don't know how many years my memory has been ahead of the industry.

He has watched quite a few entertainment variety shows, such as Running Man and Extreme Challenge, and even Where Are We Going, Dad? Which one was not a hit in the past?

But which one should he choose...

Running Man is still based on celebrities doing tasks. The only highlight is tearing name tags, but the viewing value of this fixed game type will gradually decrease, and there may be scripts and other things that affect the reputation.

Extreme Challenge does not have many scripts. A group of people have many tricks and even do not follow the arrangement of the program group... But to be honest, in Pu Tong's opinion, the success of Extreme Challenge is more about the most suitable six people. Only when they collide with each other can they break the routine.

After the previous members left, Extreme Challenge no longer had that flavor, and this is exactly the reason.

The success of Extreme Challenge is difficult to replicate. Even if he told Xu Lei, the six people he invited were not the most suitable.

After weighing the pros and cons, he chose Where Are We Going, Dad, a reality show that focuses on parent-child programs. It has laughter, tears and educational significance, which is quite suitable for Xu Lei to perform.

Pu Tong: [I know you are anxious, but don't worry, listen to my ideas first. ]

Although Xu Lei was indignant, he sat back on the chair after hearing what he said, but he was less interested than at the beginning.

Then, Pu Tong told him the idea of ​​"Where Are We Going, Dad?". The biggest attraction of the show to the audience is the "cute children" with different characteristics of the celebrity fathers, whether they are crying, wanting to be fed, or hitting people.

The performance of the cute children makes people laugh. The process of watching the show is also the process of participating in the growth of the children. Every child becomes more mature through these experiences...

After listening to Xu Lei, it only took a few minutes from sitting quietly to standing up excitedly, and then to looking excited.

Parent-child program + outdoor, why didn't he think of it?

There are actually celebrity parent-child program variety shows on the market, but most of them record home life. There is really no outdoor reality show like this.

Just imagine, celebrities who neglect to communicate with their children due to the nature of their work, slowly get close to their children in the process of life and open their hearts to each other. What a healing situation that would be.

He is also a father, so he can understand this feeling.

Moreover, many celebrities have such great images. What they are like in life and how they educate their children are very attractive.

Xu Lei held the table, feeling excited but also a little sad... How can this kid think of so many things? Even a professional like him can't do it.

I have to admit that he was moved. He really wanted to try to shoot this entertaining and humane program.

Pu Tong: [Director Xu, what do you think? If you are not satisfied, I can also talk about the six members doing an open outdoor challenge sports program every episode...]

He actually has another idea?

Xu Lei couldn't help but take a breath. How many ideas does this guy have in his head? It turns out that his great idea just now is just one of his countless ideas.

This is too inhuman.

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but feel fortunate that Pu Tong is more content with the status quo. If he really wants to enter the entertainment industry, what else can they do.

Xu Lei: [Forget it, this idea is good, and I have confidence. ]

Pu Tong: [What about shooting commercials...]

Xu Lei: [No problem. Recently, the staff is busy editing the last two episodes. Once the preparations are almost done and there are enough people, we can shoot your promotional video at any time. ]

Good guy, he can bend and stretch, he is a real man!

The program of "When You Are Young" has been basically completed. Now Xu Lei has nothing to do, so after chatting with Pu Tong, he went to discuss the new program with the station excitedly.

Of course, when the variety show comes out, Pu Tong's name will have to be put on it. He is not interested in greedy things.

"Ruzi is teachable!" Pu Tong sighed, and actually felt a little like teaching an apprentice.

Anyway, the promotion of his game has been negotiated, and he can officially start filming as long as Xu Lei's team is done.

He sent the news of the deal to the eight-person group, on the one hand to tell them about the progress, and on the other hand, the filming is about to start, so they should pay attention to the time.

Pu Tong vaguely remembered that Iori Yukino wanted to go home to visit during the summer vacation. If she went abroad, it would be difficult to contact her.

Xie Mu: [Even Xu Lei was taken down, worthy of being a master. ]

Gan Hengxu: [Why is your words so strange...]

The group exploded again. Although this time it was a promotional video for Pu Tong's game, both the members and the team were the same as the program team.

From this point of view, this game promotional video can be regarded as a special episode of "When You Are Young"!

They didn't expect that there would be a special episode after all twelve episodes were filmed.

Pu Tong: [It will probably be in a week. Do you have any plans by then? ]

Chen Siqing: [A week later, it seems that there is no need to move for the time being. ]

He and Tang Luocheng both plan to return to their original school, and it is only a matter of time before they leave Huailin.

They originally wanted to participate in the casting of the TV series of the Normal University Affiliated High School before talking about it, but there was no news from the side, not even a hint of it, and they all doubted whether the inside information was true.

Xie Mu's answer to this was very firm. After all, he believed in Ling Ling unconditionally. If Ling Ling said that the Normal University Affiliated High School was going to shoot a campus drama for promotion, it should not be false.

Iori Yukino: [I plan to go home, but I'm not in a hurry. The vacation is still long. ]

Pu Tong: [I haven't been to Sakura yet. I really want to see the cat-ear maid cafe, the shrine maidens and the customs girls! ]

As a 2D fan, it is a pity that I cannot witness these things with my own eyes.

Yu Wanwan: [? ]

You are asking for death. You dare to say this when you have a girlfriend?
