I’m Really a Superstar

midnight.

Yao Jiancai glared and said, "Brother, you are awesome."

Zhang Ye smiled, "Haha, just so-so."

"How did you do it?" Yao Jiancai looked at his phone and said, "Did the rankings be written wrong? Why did all twenty-eight of us fall, but you rose instead of falling?"

Zhang Ye explained: "There was a cross talk actor named Tang Dazhang who kept picking fights with me and annoyed me, so I posted a few poems, one a day, and my popularity increased a little bit for some reason."

Yao Jiancai was startled and said: "Tang Dazhang? I used to know him when we were talking about cross talk. We have met several times. How come you are competing with him?"

Zhang Ye said innocently: "You should ask him, I didn't recruit him or provoke him."

"Then you posted a few poems?" Yao Jiancai asked.

"Yes." Zhang Ye said.

Yao Jiancai said: "It's so evil. You and I should take a look."

Zhang Ye said: "Haha, let's see."

Yao Jiancai still couldn't believe it, so he immediately went to Weibo to confirm. After taking a look at everything, he was completely convinced. He gave Zhang Ye a thumbs up and laughed and said: "Okay, you still have it." My brother has the ability, so if he comes, he must be with one."

"Let's go." Zhang Ye clinked glasses with him from the beer machine.

Yao Jiancai said in admiration: "You are the only one who can use this trick. Other people in the entertainment industry don't have your incredible literary talent."

Zhang Ye waved his hand and said: "This is a temporary measure at best. It won't last long. I can't write a poem and post it every day from now on. Even if I can write it, the common people won't like to read it. It’s just a matter of the right time, place and people. At this juncture, my three poems have only given me some popularity. After this incident is over, it will be meaningless for me to write ten poems every day. Netizens We must have been tired of watching it, and no means or methods can be used every day. So, tomorrow and the day after tomorrow, my popularity should be gone, but I will die a few days later than you."

Others saw Zhang Ye bucking the trend and enjoying the glory. He cursed and slapped people in the face and ignored the ban order to continue to grow in popularity. However, only Zhang Ye himself understood that this was temporary. Two days or even one day later, the situation would definitely still be the same. As before, he couldn't escape this trend.

Yao Jiancai took a few sips of instant noodles and said, "Yes, this ban has blocked all our roads.

"

"So we have to think of a way." Zhang Ye had no intention of eating the remaining noodles. He drank beer and said immediately: "We can't just wait to die."

Yao Jiancai shook his head, "I can't write movies, TV series, variety shows or even novels. What else can I do? Even if we invest in making something ourselves, it won't be broadcast on TV, and online videos won't be approved."

Zhang Ye also fell silent.

"Drink."

"Come."

"Today we two brothers will never stop getting drunk."

"Okay, brother, I will stay with you until the end."

One listen.

Five listening.

Ten listens.

I drank a can of beer.

After drinking too much, they naturally started to speak freely. Zhang Ye and Yao Jiancai immediately began to curse, sometimes at the TV station, sometimes at God. The resentment that had been accumulated for several days exploded at this moment.

The next day.

Eight o'clock in the morning.

The room was in a state of chaos. There was a bowl of instant noodles on the table, chopsticks fell to the floor, and beer cans were all over the floor. Zhang Ye was lying on the bed and fast asleep, while Yao Jiancai was leaning on the small sofa and talking loudly. They were snoring loudly. They were both drunk yesterday.

The TV is also off.

A promotional video for this year's much-anticipated cross talk sketch competition was played above.

Zhang Ye was woken up by the sound of TV. He kicked off the quilt and opened his eyes. He rubbed his sore neck and yawned frequently, "Old Yao, are you still sleeping?"

Yao Jiancai closed his eyes and groaned.

Zhang Ye sat up from the bed and glanced at the TV.

"This year's competition is the same as in previous years. It is divided into two competition areas, the cross talk competition area and the sketch competition area. The deadline for registration in the cross talk competition area is before 11 noon today. After the registration is stopped, the trials for the cross talk competition area will officially begin tomorrow. , divided into three stages: preliminaries, knockout rounds and finals. Preliminary round - applicants perform cross talk works live, broadcast through online broadcast, and the winners will be determined by judges and off-site voting to enter the knockout stage. Knockout round - CCTV The whole process will be broadcast live on TV, with the contestants competing in pairs..."

Um?

Zhang Ye was watching TV, suddenly blinked, and shouted loudly to the sofa: "Old Yao"

Yao Jiancai was still sleeping soundly.

"Old Yao, don't sleep, don't sleep," Zhang Ye called him.

Yao Jiancai turned around depressedly, "What?"

Zhang Ye got out of bed and said, "Get up quickly and watch TV."

"TV?" Yao Jiancai sat up, smacking his lips and rubbing his forehead, and glanced at the TV casually, "Hey, what did I think it was? Isn't it just this year's cross talk sketch contest? What's all the fuss about? It's all publicity. How long has it been, doesn’t it happen every year?”

Zhang Ye hurriedly asked, "How are the ratings of this show?"

Yao Jiancai said: "Are you asking whether it's on the Internet or on TV?"

"Tell me everything." Zhang Ye seemed to be very excited.

Yao Jiancai glanced at him, rubbed the gum in the corner of his eyes, and said: "You shouldn't, you don't even know about this competition? You don't usually watch TV? The annual cross talk sketch competition is CCTV's signature column, and it is a new construction The ll channel is broadcasted by the ll channel. Like the l channel and the 2 channel, the ll channel is also a nationwide satellite TV channel. The signal can basically cover most of the republic. As for the ratings, except for the one the year before last, which was the second in the country during the same period, The year before last and the year before last, we were basically No. 1 in the country, with hundreds of millions of clicks on the Internet."

Zhang Ye took a breath, "So fierce?"

Yao Jiancai said strangely: "You don't even know what kind of entertainment industry you are involved in, and you are also a TV host? This competition is CCTV's signature program, how can it not be fierce?

Zhang Ye quickly asked: "How come the ratings are so high? Can ordinary cross talk sketches attract so many viewers? Are there so many good programs?"

He is actually unfamiliar with this world. Even if he later supplements his knowledge of this new world, it is still impossible to understand many places too deeply. Zhang Ye has heard about the cross talk sketch contest on this earth a long time ago, and he also knows this place. The competition was different from similar competitions on his Earth, but having never seen it with his own eyes, Zhang Ye had never had a big idea of ​​these. Now that he heard that this program was the number one in the country in terms of ratings during that period, he couldn't help but He was also stunned.

Yao Jiancai said: "Of course there are good programs. Many good works emerge every year. Some works even have a better reputation than the cross talk sketches on the Spring Festival Gala. They are very interesting. And the reason why the ratings are so high is that there are some Other factors, such as this kind of competition does not limit the number of people. No matter you are professional in cross talk, or you are buying vegetables and farming, as long as you sign up, you can participate. Naturally, there will be some weird and funny ones, or some special ones. It's bad. There are even people who stutter and sign up to talk about cross talk. It's strange. Many viewers like to watch this. I remember the online live broadcast of the preliminaries last year. Several people became popular. This show is very star-making. Well, of course. Those who are funny will definitely not last long. Those who really want to become famous on this stage are the guys with real talents."

Zhang Ye was not sure and said: "The preliminaries will also be broadcast live?"

"Yeah." Yao Jiancai knew this very well and should have watched it every year. He said: "The preliminaries are live broadcast online. They are probably divided into several groups. Group A, Group B, Group C, etc. It feels similar to a football match. Then each group has a page on the CCTV video website, with the names of the contestants and entries on it. The audience can click on it to watch it. Of course, it is not a real live broadcast, it is just about uploading the resources immediately after recording, because There are no restrictions on registration, so it is inevitable that there will be people who make trouble, and it happens every year. So if they are really making trouble or saying something bad, their works will basically not be uploaded. Well, this kind of situation does happen. , but not many. By the way, if the contestant speaks well and the work is outstanding, the judges of the group will also make publicity recommendations for the contestant and the work depending on the situation, because there are too many people participating. Without CCTV’s promotion, it would be more difficult to come up with the idea, so many people who are really striving to advance will also attach great importance to the preliminaries.”

"How many people are participating?" Zhang Ye asked.

Yao Jiancai said: "I don't know about the sketch competition area. As for the cross talk competition area, there were probably four to five thousand people last year."

Zhang Ye was startled, "Damn, four or five thousand people? Is there that many? CCTV blew it out, right?"

Yao Jiancai said: "This is really not a boast, there are indeed so many. Everyone knows that this show is popular, so naturally more people have signed up, and there is no limit to sign up. Everyone can participate. There are also people who come with a fun mentality, or Many newcomers who have just entered the circle of cross talk sketches, or disciples of master cross talk sketch artists, will also come to try their abilities. Although this competition is an entertainment program, it is also very professional. You can see this year's competition The young couple in the Spring Festival Gala were the runners-up in the cross talk competition that came out of this stage four years ago. Therefore, this competition is also the largest and most professional talent show platform for cross talk sketches in the country. I really want to say it well. If the ranking is high, there will be people from related companies among the judges, and they will sign contracts with them directly. For example, Tang Dazhang is now opening a cross talk club. He will be a judge this year, so he will definitely have to pick good talents from among them. "

He talked for a long time and explained for a long time.

Zhang Ye finally fully understood this competition.

At the end, Yao Jiancai's eyelids twitched again, "You can check it online yourself. I'm still sleeping. You just woke me up for this." He lay down again.

Zhang Ye pulled him up and said, "Why are you still sleeping?"

Yao Jiancai said speechlessly: "Why don't you go to sleep?"

Zhang Ye was always on TV in the promotional video for the Crosstalk Sketch Contest, "Let's go sign up, brothers."
