The variety show "Happy Family" always arranges a game segment in the program. The program team may have chosen the game "Please Close Your Eyes after Dark" in order to match the setting of the movie "Detective".
"Close Your Eyes When It's Dark" is divided into two camps: the good guys and the killers. The identities of all players are randomly assigned. They don't know each other's identities and rely entirely on "listening" to judge the identities of others. The good guys use voting as a means to kill the killers to win the final victory, while the killers hide among the good guys and win by killing people at night and voting to eliminate the members of the good guys.
To put it simply, this is a game in which multiple people compete in eloquence and analytical judgment. Of course, psychological quality also plays a key role in the process.
The law firm where Chen Minhao interned in his previous life was a foreign-funded firm, and every Friday was Happy Friday.
Law firms work at a very fast pace and with a lot of intensity. On weekdays, they are usually busy until 11 or 12 o'clock in the evening. When projects are busy, they also have to work overtime on weekends.
There has always been a saying in Western countries: Friday night, date night (Friday night, date night). Therefore, in foreign companies, even the most difficult bosses will generally not leave people to work overtime on Friday nights and let employees get off work at 7 o'clock at the latest. Just before employees get off work, the boss will say to them: "Leave it to me before going to work on Monday." This will allow employees to work overtime on weekends.
Therefore, on Fridays in law firms, a few people with couples will go on dates, while singles, who account for the majority of the total number of employees, usually get together to play some board games, such as: "Please Close Your Eyes When Dark", "Werewolf" "Kill", "German Heart Attack" and so on.
After experiencing the "tempering" in his previous life, Chen Minhao played the game "Please Close Your Eyes When Dark" very well.
However, Chen Minhao still followed the script given by the "Happy Family" program team, pretending that he was a "newcomer" who had never heard of this game before, patiently listened to the host's explanation of the rules in detail, and raised some rules from time to time. doubt.
Although the game "Please Close Your Eyes when Dark" is mentioned in the script, the role each guest draws, that is, whether each guest plays a good guy or a bad guy, is not specified in the script.
This is not because the program crew's desire for control has suddenly decreased, but because the program crew is not confident enough about the guests' acting skills. If it is not "acted" well and the audience discovers that the game part of the show is also performed according to the script, it will cause a devastating blow to the reputation of "Happy Family".
To take a step back, based on the experience of the program team, it is easier for the guests to perform on their own, which will make the program more effective.
Chen Minhao drew the killer card. By pretending to be confused in the early stage, focusing on key points in the mid-term speech, and constructing his own logic in the final speech, he survived to the end as a killer. At the end of the game, many people were surprised when the result was revealed.
The female hosts Kang Qian and Chen Minhao were both in the killer camp, but Chen Minhao used the "wolf stepping on wolf" method to send them out. Kang Qian said in surprise: "Chen Minhao, is this really your first time playing this game?" I feel like you are so awesome. "
Several people on the stage suddenly recalled Chen Minhao's cute and new attitude during the game introduction just now, but the routine that Chen Minhao showed in the game just now did not look like a newcomer at all. Host Kang Qian's words made them worry that some viewers would speculate that Chen Minhao's victory was arranged by the program team.
The hosts held their breath for a moment, their minds racing rapidly, thinking about how to save the situation. Cen Yuhai, the director in the director's room, started to curse: "Damn it, I was so happy just now that the effect of this game was so good. Kang Qian, an idiot, immediately changed the subject to the possibility of a script."
The audience in the audience also widened their eyes, recalling Chen Minhao's performance just now. The female host Kang Qian also realized at this time that she really just wanted to simply praise Chen Minhao.
Chen Minhao grinned and said: "This shows that you don't understand this game yet. This game started long before you got the identity card. I just pretended to be a newbie just to make you relax your vigilance. In fact, I am a veteran."
The director in the studio also breathed a sigh of relief, took a sip of strong tea, and thought to himself: "Chen Minhao is really a smart little guy, and he handled it very well."
Teacher He nodded with satisfaction. He felt that Chen Minhao still had a sense of variety. He took the topic and asked: "So Chen Minhao, did you play the role of a killer in the movie "Detective"?"
In fact, Teacher He's question is also a question of many viewers. The movie "Detective" is a suspense drama about solving crimes. Moreover, the promotion of the show has always followed the route of two male protagonists, which has led many people to speculate: one of the two male protagonists is a detective and the other is a killer.
Chen Minhao said with a smile: "As for this issue, everyone can only go to the cinema on July 1 to find out."
Lu Yinyin, the film promotion manager in the audience, nodded with great satisfaction. Chen Minhao never forgets to promote the film. Well done!
After this episode of "Happy Family" was officially aired, the ratings were much higher than those in the past two years. Cen Yuhai, the director of "Happy Family", was so happy that he called Kang back immediately. We plan to invite Chen Minhao to participate in "Happy Family" again in the second half of this year.
In recent years, whether it is the short video industry such as Douyin, Kuaishou, or online variety shows on video software such as Kiwi, they have developed very rapidly. However, the number of people in the country is limited, and their attention can be spent on entertainment. The time available is also limited. Therefore, the TV station's variety show ratings are declining year by year. Cen Yuhai, the director of "Happy Family", is also under a lot of pressure.
What made Cen Yuhai even more stressed was that Kang Hui did not immediately agree to the invitation. Instead, he euphemistically said, "We'll see when the time comes."
Director Cen Yuhai lit a cigarette and thought to himself: "Is "Happy Family", which has been popular for more than ten years, coming to an end? Is it no longer attractive to top-tier traffic stars?"
With his limited knowledge, he would never have guessed that Chen Minhao didn't want to be a popular star.
After the broadcast of "Happy Camp", the official Weibo of "Detective" began to promote it!
"While evading police pursuits, gang pursuits, and gang sieges, in just seven days, they have to complete the "lost gold", find out the "real murderer," and "clear their names." mission. Can they do it?”
The significance of this Weibo is not only to release the final makeup of the actors, but also to mark the official launch of the promotion of "Detective".
Two days after this Weibo was posted, the official Weibo released the trailer of "Detective".
