Chapter 190 What is a Talk Show (please subscribe!)
"Talk show?"

"What is a talk show?"

The next day, in Liu Fan's studio, Luo Yunling, Gong Xialan and Su Lixia looked at each other, completely unaware of what Liu Fan was talking about.

Yesterday Su Lixia communicated with Gong Xialan, saying that Liu Fan is also preparing to plan a variety show. Although he is optimistic about Liu Fan's musical talent, but Liu Fan wants to produce a variety show, but Gong Xialan puts a question mark.

But unable to bear Luo Yunling's curiosity, Gong Xialan was still pulled over by her.

After arriving, I saw the plan that Liu Fan handed over.

"Liu Fan Talk Show"

Looking at the three words "talk show" individually, all three of them know each other, but why they suddenly don't understand the meaning when they are combined together.

"Xiaofan, what is this talk show? Why haven't I heard of it?"

Luo Yunling frowned, and curiously asked her own question.

Regarding this question, Liu Fan was prepared for a long time, and talked about it with eloquence:

"Talk-Show is also called Talk-Show, I named it at will." Liu Fan said boldly.

"The general form of a talk show, and the most important highlight, is to firmly grasp current social events and current trends, integrate them into jokes, make enough attractive jokes, and put them on the show."

"Similar to the recent popular songs, or movies, or some popular news in the society, we can use them to make jokes to make the audience laugh. This is a simple form of talk show."

"In the information society, all kinds of news happen every day, so you don't need to worry about the choice of subject matter. What we need to do is to continuously convert these news hotspots into various jokes, So that the audience will not be tired of this show."

Listening to Liu Fan explaining the connotation of the talk show, Luo Yunling thought it was very interesting, but Gong Xialan and Su Lixia frowned tightly, with some disappointed expressions on their faces, they looked at Liu Fan seriously Su Lixia couldn't help asking, "Isn't this still a news program? It just combines news and entertainment, but after all, it's just entertainment news. What's the point of this?"

When Su Lixia was talking, Liu Fan started shaking his head, obviously the three of them didn't understand what he meant:
"Talk shows are not news. In fact, the main purpose of talk shows is to be funny. When watching the show, everyone can let go of their bodies and minds, have a good laugh, throw away the troubles in life, and enjoy it easily. For a while, that was the main purpose of talk shows.”

"As for the entertainment news you mentioned just now, Sister Xia, this is also one of the materials for our talk show, but in addition to entertainment news, the movies, songs, TV series, and even football games I just mentioned can be used to talk about it. .

After all, we are not real news, but a funny show, so the authenticity of the jokes is not important on talk shows. If possible, we can even use gossip from the Internet, as long as it can be funny. "

Liu Fan kept emphasizing "funny", Gong Xialan somewhat understood what he meant, but still had some doubts about the form:

"Is that program similar to Happy Family, where you find a few hosts, and then invite some guests in each episode to make complaints about each other?"

Liu Fan smiled and said, "No, I'm the host. It just so happens that we don't have enough funds, so we can save money and hire more screenwriters to write jokes.

The talk show is different from the traditional variety show we understand. You can know it from the name of the show. Liu Fan talk show, I can do it by myself. I don’t need anyone’s help. As long as there are enough audiences in the audience, I can Just calm down and listen to me, and leave the rest to me. "

Liu Fan directly took over the hosting role.

But there is no way. Currently, I am the person who understands talk shows best. Other than myself, other people may make it into a traditional variety show, so the advantages of talk shows will not be fully utilized, nor will they be able to compete in the fierce competition. Stand out in variety shows.

"Are you hosting alone? Don't need any cooperation?"

"Yes."

"Then the audience listened to your jokes in the audience?"

"Yes."

"No, wait for me to understand, isn't this just stand-up comedy?"

Gong Xialan said that her thoughts are a little messy and she needs to sort it out first.

According to what Liu Fan said, telling jokes to the audience by herself made her instantly think of stand-up comedy, but after so many years of development, some people have tried stand-up comedy, but after a short period of glory, they completely disappeared in variety shows.

Nothing else, it's too difficult, the creation of one or two episodes is okay, if it is to create original stand-up comedy for several months, the pressure is too great, and the quality cannot be guaranteed.

Many viewers found something wrong after listening to it halfway, and stopped watching it, which formed a vicious circle.

The poor quality of cross talk and the lack of interest from the audience caused the pressure on the actors to increase again, and the quality of the cross talk created became worse and worse. In the end, stand-up comedy disappeared in variety shows.

Liu Fan also participated in the cross talk rookie contest and has a foundation in cross talk. After simply comparing the talk show and stand-up comedy in his mind, Liu Fan explained: "Actually, the two are not the same. Stand-up comedy, a program They all have a theme, and must be told around the theme. The requirements for creation are very high. It must not only be funny, but also not deviate from the basics of cross talk, and it must be coherent and have a theme.

But talk shows basically don't have much theme. If they have to be, they are at most a directional theme, and they don't clearly point out specific points. And talk shows are not like cross talks, they must have a beginning and an end , A talk show can have no beginning and no end. To put it bluntly, it is just a splicing of jokes one after another, which is quite different from stand-up comedy. "

On Earth, the first talk show in China to have crabs is the post-80s talk show tonight. When Wang Zijian first started doing talk shows, his cross talk career did not fail. He went back and forth between Shanghai and Shanghai every week. Between the capitals, but when I returned to the capital to talk about cross talk, because I was familiar with the talk show, the cross talk suddenly became a mess. After continuous adjustments, I found the trick, and the talk show and cross talk no longer conflicted with each other. , but this reflects that cross talk and talk show are two separate systems.

"Is this a performance created by you, Xiaofan?"

Luo Yunling asked weakly.

When she is not working, she also likes to watch variety shows, not only watching domestic ones, but also following foreign variety shows, but after so many years, she has not seen one similar to what Liu Fan said. program.

"Yes, my own original show!"

The corners of Liu Fan's mouth rose slightly, his face was full of pride and complacency.

"Okay, let's not talk about other things. There is one problem. If it is not solved, this show will basically not be able to be done."

Su Lixia put down the plan in her hands, stared at Liu Fan sharply and said:
"The core of your show, according to what you just said, is to be funny, to make current affairs and hot topics in society into eye-catching jokes, and put them in the show."

"If it's a hot topic of entertainment, it's relatively easy to make jokes, but how do you make news into interesting jokes? It's too difficult!"

"This is too much for postgraduate planning and screenwriting skills. Is there anyone among us who can do it?"

After such a long period of analysis, Su Lixia has found the key problem of this show.

This show, in the final analysis, is still a language variety show. It needs to transform the news into interesting jokes. This test is the screenwriter's skills, to see if the screenwriter is capable of presenting the news in a humorous way.

If the screenwriter can't do it, then no matter how good Liu Fan's speech is, no matter how interesting it is, this program will not be able to truly succeed!

Everything is ultimately based on the pen of the screenwriter.

This is also the reason why screenwriters Li Dan, Wang Jianguo and others were able to stand out in the post-80s talk show in the previous life tonight, and successfully created the talk show conference and the Tucao conference. They have this writing ability themselves!

Hearing Su Lixia's question, Liu Fan knew the key point was coming.

Fortunately, he had already prepared for it. After redeeming this plan, Liu Fan also watched a lot of talk show programs provided by the system, and now he is basically able to change the news into jokes.

Just talk but don't practice fake moves!
No matter how much you talk to Luo Yunling, Su Lixia and Gong Xialan, if you don't demonstrate it to them personally and let them see the specific effect, they may be worried all the time, which is also normal.

However, I was well-prepared today and expected this situation, so I smiled lightly and said: "I also made a simple prototype of the show last night, let me show it to you, if you don't show it to you, you may never dare believe."

It's not that the three of them don't believe in Liu Fan, but people's imagination is sometimes restricted when it comes to new things. At this time, what people really believe is only their own eyes. They believe that what they see is true. Now Liu Fan All it takes is to show them what a stand-up show is.

Hearing that Liu Fan said that he was going to perform, the three of them immediately became interested, and moved their chairs back one after another, freeing a large space for Liu Fan to facilitate Liu Fan's performance.

Although he was working in the company today, Liu Fan had expected to perform a long time ago. He wore a white suit that he had treasured for a long time in advance and paired it with a red tie, which looked quite funny.

In fact, as early as when the four of them were discussing, the three of them noticed Liu Fan's attire.

When Liu Fan is not active, he always wears casual clothes, no matter how comfortable he is, today he even wore a suit, Su Lixia felt that the sun was rising from the west, but now seeing Liu Fan's performance style, Su Lixia suddenly understood , it turned out that Liu Fan was laying the groundwork for this place!
Wearing a white suit, Liu Fan stood in front of the three of them. He straightened his shoulders and hem slightly, coughed lightly, and held his head high, like a professional host. landscape.

Liu Fan organized the language in his mind, and then said to the three seriously: "Everyone knows that You Ruyun and I are roommates in college. During college, every time You Ruyun's computer broke down, he would come to me. Help him fix it, and over time, I have developed a good skill in repairing computers."

"Two days ago, You Ruyun's computer broke down again, and he asked me to go to his home to repair his computer. After I went there, I found out that it's not a big deal. I just redid the system for him and it's done."

"But in his hard drive, I dug out a folder, and it was full of shit."

While Liu Fan was talking, he was gesturing with his hands how big the cloth was, which made the three women in the audience furious, especially Luo Yunling, who gave Liu Fan a blank stare and let him experience it for himself.

"Then I told You Ruyun, okay, you boy, why haven't you shared with us so many private collections?"

"You Ruyun knelt down for me on the spot, and happily said: Brother Fan, thank you, I have been looking for it for days!"

Speaking of this, Liu Fan stopped on purpose, with an unpredictable smile on his face, which made the three women in the audience think about it, and similar smiles hung on their cheeks.

"When it comes to cybersecurity, it's actually a very private topic."

Immediately afterwards, around computer privacy, Liu Fan talked a lot more, one burden after another, as if he didn't want money, he just threw it out, and some of them were related to the recent hot news on the Internet.

Whenever they heard these related topics, Luo Yunling, Gong Xialan, and Su Lixia's minds would immediately come up with related topics, and they would burst into laughter instantly, the burden ringing!
Liu Fan's continuous dozens of jokes made the laughter in the office never stop.

It may be because the three laughed so happily that the laughter spread outside the house, attracting many employees in the company, but everyone was timid and did not dare to listen at the door of the office until You Ruyun appeared.

You Ruyun is a character who is not afraid of anything, but he is also worried about interrupting Liu Fan's performance, so he can only lie on the door of the room, listening to Liu Fan's talk show with his ears sideways, and he can vaguely hear some of it. When they got to the burden place, You Ruyun would also laugh along with him.

This time, with You Ruyun taking the lead, the others let go of their courage, and followed You Ruyun's example, lying on the desk in Liu Fan's office to listen to him, and the whole studio felt beaming.

After finishing the last sentence, Liu Fan couldn't help but wiped the sweat from his forehead, he was really tired.

The main reason is that there were only three people present, and although they also gave some reactions, some of them were relatively small, which made him unable to continue the speech, so he could only choose to change the next burden. However, if there are more audiences, the effect will really rise. .

This is the same as cross talk, the most authentic reaction given by the audience in the audience will affect the performance of the contestants on the stage.

Lifting it up, Liu Fan found a group of people lying on their stomachs at the door.

Seeing Liu Fan's gaze sweeping over, everyone, including You Ruyun, swarmed away and went back to their respective positions to work. However, during their free time at work, they could occasionally hear some employees discussing Liu Fan's problems. talk show!
