Chapter 384 The ability user of "Run"——Liu Feiren
The variety show "Run" is quite popular, and it is more or less popular before it is aired.

It’s not the original Korean variety show. To be honest, Korean variety shows are not popular enough to leave the industry, but are more popular in small circles.

In China, the most popular variety shows are still "Happy Camp", "Tiantian Shang Shang", "Kangxi Is Coming", etc., mainly from the mainland and Taiwan Province, that is, when the Korean Wave hits, Korean variety shows follow suit.

The latter really made a big splash through domestic variety shows such as "Where Are We Going, Dad", "Run", "Extreme Challenge", "I Am a Singer" and "The Longing for Life", which attracted many viewers to watch the original version. Then it became more and more popular.

This is also a major reason why Han Zong actively exports. To a certain extent, this can be regarded as a kind of export, and it has a lot of help and feedback.

As for "Run", in fact, the main market and audience are not fans of the original Korean variety show.

People all have preconceptions. If they like Korean TV shows, they will always find faults unconsciously when watching the domestic version. In extreme cases, they will make all kinds of complaints or even slander.

The Deng Dynasty would not be able to control the field without Yoo Jae-seok!
Chen Chichi is unlucky without Lee Kwang Soo!
Song Ji Hyo is no longer a manly girl!
How can seven different people be exactly the same? Just applying a template does not mean it must fit perfectly. The Korean seven-member group has its own advantages, and the domestic seven-member group also has its own highlights. It must be looked at comprehensively.

Of course, there are many K-pop fans who are not so picky, but comparison is inevitable.

Therefore, in the minds of the program team and even Wei Yang, the best audiences are those who have never seen the original version. These people are more numerous and have "preconceived notions."

From the beginning, the so-called Korean imported ace variety show has not been the focus of Blue Whale’s promotion, and it has not paid attention to the noise and wait-and-see of those Korean variety fans.

With "China's first reality show variety show" as the selling point, supplemented by the popularity and influence of the seven permanent guests, the Blue Whale's signature is also used.

Many people always like to use "Imported is the best" as a packaging to attract people.

But in fact, most people only care about whether the goods are good or not, and don't care about the place of origin and source. The key is to find the market and grasp the quality.

Blue Whale has been on the battlefield for a long time and is naturally a good publicity player. Magic City TV and Penguin Video, which cooperated with the first season of "Run", are also good at it.

With the combined efforts of the three parties, "Run" has surpassed "Where Are We Going, Dad" in popularity.

This also has something to do with the subject matter and the celebrity position!

The former has seven stars, including a few A-listers, and the outdoor adventure game also revealed a lot of exciting gameplay, which looks good.

The latter involves celebrities traveling with their children. The gimmick is less attractive and the celebrity status is also lower.

At least many people have never heard of Wang Yuelun and Zhang Liang. Lin Zhiying, who is the most talented, cannot match the popularity and popularity of popular artists such as Deng Chao and Wang Baoqiang.

It would be unlucky for me to say that the advantage lies with me, but it is true that "Run" has a first-mover advantage at the moment.

Boss Wei is looking forward to the collision between the two major variety shows to see who is the real king of phenomenal variety shows.

Others are not as complicated as he thought. Including Wang Baoqiang, the person involved, they still want to watch the variety show itself.

In the first episode of the first season, the first thing to start is to introduce the seven permanent guests.

Led by captain Deng Chao, seven people appeared one after another.

The lineup of "Run" is not a secret. Although the official has only acknowledged a few and not all of them have been exposed, it has basically been revealed by the outside world.

But even so, when they saw Deng Chao, Wang Baoqiang, Xue Zhiqian, Sha Yi, and Chen Chichi coming out, many people still took a breath of air.

Needless to say, Deng and Wang are the most popular in Tie Tie's line. The former is a representative of the Mesozoic generation and has an even more popular daughter-in-law. The latter is also a rising star in the film industry and is well-known as a grassroots inspirational representative.

After Sha Yi, although he is not a front-line player, his national reputation is not a joke. Many front-line players are not as familiar as him in front of the public.

The same is true for Chen Chichi. His masterpiece "Love Apartment" made him extremely popular among the younger generation.

The one with the least reputation is Xue Zhiqian, who has faded out in the past two years. Although he was a popular singer before, there are some singers who are not popular.

In terms of familiarity and nationality, he was the worst among the five, or even among the seven.

When Rouba appeared, the atmosphere in the hotel movie theater reached a climax.

Since the first issue was set as an agent, Rouba wore a tight-fitting leather jacket. He had a graceful figure and fair skin. He looked cute and sassy, ​​making wolves howl.

Gao Yuanyuan couldn't help but look at it several times, and asked Wei Yang curiously: "I remember, this is from your company, right?"

"Ah."

Wei Yang took a sip of soda and soothed his dry throat.

Not to mention, as this little girl has grown older in the past two years, coupled with her deliberate exercise, her figure has indeed become more and more attractive, especially the waist-to-hip ratio, tsk tsk...

Gao Yuanyuan's eyes flashed with gossip: "What's the matter, have you got it?"

"Cough cough."

Wei Yang almost choked on the water and glared at her angrily: "You underestimate me too much. The rabbit doesn't even eat the grass beside its nest."

"I believe what others say, but you say...hehe."

One is Blue Whale and the other is Coral Entertainment. They are the most popular and favored actresses. The outside world almost regards them as Boss Wei's back garden.

Wei Yang thought about it for a while, but he really didn't have the confidence to refute it. From a certain perspective, the outside world's speculation was correct.

However, Wei Yang felt that there was a misunderstanding here, that is, it was not that he liked to eat the grass around his nest, but that he liked to plant the grass next to his nest.

Xiao Zhao, Tang Yan, and Da Mi Mi were all eaten by him first or basically acquired, and then brought to his company. He had never touched the weeds like Xinjiang Ermei who really watched them grow.

However, Boss Wei didn't speak harshly. His family knew his own affairs. If he couldn't hold back one day, he would easily slap himself in the face.

"Rabbits don't eat grass beside their nests!"

Gao Yuanyuan repeated this sentence again, which was full of sarcasm. Boss Wei pretended not to hear it and watched the last permanent guest appear.

"Fuck!"

Gao Yuanyuan couldn't help shouting, and there were not a few people who were as surprised as she was. Many people were so frightened that they stood up directly. Only Wei Yang and Wang Baoqiang had expected it and watched with smiles.

"Didn't you say Zhu Yawen? Why did it change to him?"

"If this person takes action, how will they play?"

"My dear, you're so awesome. I've invited the Buddha here."

"I read the news online before and thought it was a lie, but I didn't expect it to be true."

"..."

There was constant discussion at the scene, and you can imagine the shock of other viewers watching "Run" to see this person appear.

Previously, the official program team only recognized the three most popular guests, Deng, Wang, and Rouba, as the focus of publicity, leaving others to guess.

However, based on various information channels, the outside world has basically figured out all the candidates, including the guest who has the ability to compete with Kim Jong Kook.The first person who was rumored was Wu Jing, but later it was said that he had found a sports star/Olympic champion, Sun Yang and Lin Dan, and was later identified as Zhu Yawen.

This guy has a background as a tough guy soldier, and he also collaborated with Mr. Zhou in "Red Sorghum". Through the exposed stills, he also has a tough look on his face, so it fits everyone's impression of him as a "tough guy".

More importantly, Zhu Yawen has a good relationship with Yang Tianzhen, the head of Coral Entertainment, and it is said that he may join Coral Entertainment.

As we all know, most of the guests on "Run" are the "own people" of Wei Yang and Blue Whale.

Deng Chao is the son-in-law of the Shanghainese family. The new movie "The Breakup Master" has a collaboration with Blue Whale. Wang Baoqiang is also deeply involved with Wei Yang. Chen Chichi is an alumnus of Shanghai Theater Academy and is also friends with Boss Wei. He has a strong Shanghainese label.

Xue, Sha and Rouba are simply the artists of Coral and Blue Whale.

Therefore, everyone's guess about the seventh person is that they also give priority to the Shanghai connection or have good relations with Wei Yang, which is the case for Wu Jing.

It is rumored that Zhu Yawen is expected to join Coral and become a member of the Blue Whale team, so he has a high chance of being shortlisted. When he was interviewed by the media, his attitude was ambiguous at one time, which confirmed this speculation.

As a result, the confirmed candidate, during the actual recording of the program, became Liu Feiren, who performed a track and field miracle in 2004.

"You must be shocked. We were also shocked at the time. Mr. Wei is so awesome. He can really invite people here."

Wang Baoqiang opened his mouth cheerfully. He had been holding back just now, just to see everyone's reaction. As expected, he was very happy.

"Didn't he say he was preparing for the Rio Olympics?"

Gao Yuanyuan is still a little confused. This is one of the two biggest stars in Chinese sports. Their status is very high, and it cannot be achieved by just spending money.

"He's thinking about retiring."

After failing to come back from the 2012 London Olympics, Liu Feiren suffered a waist injury. He has been resting for most of this year and is basically in a semi-retirement state.

Preparing for the Rio Olympics is just some people's speculation. Liu Feiren is already over [-] years old, has suffered serious injuries many times, and his body and condition have declined seriously.

The most important thing is not the body, but the mental illness. Two Olympic competitions and two withdrawals have brought a lot of negative public opinion and psychological pressure to Liu Feiren.

This year of recuperating from injuries was actually a retreat from the world. When he realized that it would be difficult for him to return to his peak, he really considered retiring.

"It's really, really hard to ask him."

Wei Yang couldn't help but sigh. Although he thought sports stars would destroy the balance of the game, after considering many factors, he still hoped to find a heavyweight [ability user].

Since you are looking for someone, you must look for someone who is famous. Sun Yang and Lin Dan are at their peak. It is not easy to hire them. The key is to hire them. If it affects the preparation for the game and the performance declines, "Run" will be scolded.

So from the beginning, their targets were semi-retired or retired sports stars.

In terms of popularity and status, the top two in the sports world are none other than Dayao and Liu Fei.

Da Yao can't do it, it's too disruptive to the balance. Liu Fei is letting people go too far, and if the program team makes trouble again, it's still within the tolerance range.

Therefore, the main focus of the program team at that time was Liu Feiren, but it was not easy to invite him and he declined politely many times.

At that time, the "Run" program team had given up and had begun to contact candidates. Wu Jing, Zhu Yawen and several Olympic champions were not just rumors.

Especially Zhu Yawen, who was very close to the program team for a time and has already formed a certain tacit understanding.

But the director of "Run" was still unwilling to accept Liu Feiren's big gimmick, and contacted Liu Feiren again, and even asked Boss Wei to find connections as a lobbyist.

After the program team spent so long working on it, Boss Wei personally visited the thatched cottage three times.

We arranged two meals outside and went to her house once, and finally convinced Liu Feiren.

"How did you convince him?"

Gao Yuanyuan was very curious. It's okay to say that Olympic champions have accumulated a lot in China over the years, but Liu Feiren is really not an ordinary Olympic champion. He is someone who can be recorded in the history of sports. He can entertain the public. How difficult is it? Ridiculously high.

"Let's just talk. In addition to the generous material treatment, we also give him earnest persuasion to make him feel sincerity, and then help him analyze the pros and cons and understand the benefits of participating in the show..."

With 80 million yuan and a script, Boss Wei was able to trick Fan Xiaopang into joining the movie, and he raised tens of millions more funds, and finally produced "My Love from the Star," a hit in Asia.

His eloquence, consideration of human nature, resource replacement and related packaging are all very high, and he is good at win-win situations.

Liu Feiren was not interested in "Run", so Wei Yang gave him the benefits and tried his best to grasp the pain points and make him interested.

The first is professionalism. As of now, although Liu Feiren is considering retiring, he is still thinking about it and is afraid of delaying his business.

Wei Yang told him that each episode would only be recorded for two or three days, which would last for two months a year, and would not delay training. Moreover, the program team needed him to be more relaxed and avoid injuries as much as possible.

Liu Feiren's current age and physical condition make it impossible for him to compete every day like before. In this way, this schedule is not difficult to adjust.

In addition, Wei Yang also discussed the income issue with him.

Even if you don't retire now, you won't be able to survive for a few more years. After retirement, athletes' commercial income will drop significantly.

Even now, after a long period of retirement and two unfavorable competitions, Liu Feiren's income has plummeted.Far from what it was at its peak,

Of course, Liu is not short of money. The money he has earned over the years can be spent for a lifetime, but no matter how rich he is, he cannot just sit back and rest.

Entering variety shows, and working with Blue Whale to help manage popularity and package publicity, can allow Liu Feiren to retire and still be a star, making money every day.

There is another most crucial thing that finally moved Liu Feiren. Wei Yang promised to change the negative public opinion of him through "Run", which not only allowed him to regain the love of the public, but also rectified his reputation at a critical moment.

For Liu Feiren, the possibility of returning to the top is too low, and he is not short of money. What he desires most is to be recognized by the public and the so-called "forgiveness".

It was for this reason, coupled with the various benefits that Wei Yang promised, that Liu Feiren was finally moved by Liu Feiren, who was at a low point in his life, and was willing to come out.

"Okay. After listening to it, I think Liu Feiren should participate in "Run". With your eloquence, it would be a pity not to do MLM."

“MLM makes too little money.”

Gao Yuanyuan rolled her eyes at him, but actually her heart turned upside down. She was a smart person and could see some of Boss Wei's tricks.

Now it sounds simple, and it seems that I can do it, but in fact, another person does not have Wei Yang's vision, eloquence, and guaranteed capital.

In the past, Gao Yuanyuan paid more attention to Boss Wei's appearance and film and television production capabilities, but today he learned about Boss Wei's other skills. No wonder he was able to build such a family business from scratch.

Gao Yuanyuan unconsciously compared her boyfriend with him.

Her appearance is okay, but she doesn't think much of it. Her film and television production ability and her boyfriend's professional acting skills are acceptable, but she has no shame in trying to smooth things over with her ability and methods. She is not of the same level or rank at all.

At a certain moment, Gao Yuanyuan was so moved and dazed, and then couldn't help but patted his face.

"Don't mess around, this is a scumbag, you can't control yourself..."
