Chapter 86: Death of the Direct Broadcast Society

As a variety director, Yi knows what audiences like best.

All Those Years is not entirely live, although it is mainly live.

After all, a purely live variety show requires a strong sense of variety and comedy from its participants, otherwise the whole thing would be very boring.

So "Those Were the Years" is mainly a live show, followed by a weekly 50-minute tape-recorded episode, in which the guests come together for some simple interaction and exchange, such as a family picnic, a spring trip, or a visit to an amusement park or furniture market.

The kind of variety scene that Lu Jiayan has just witnessed is not to be found.

The recording time is one hour in total.

The crew did not leave until twilight had fallen and enough material had been recorded.

This trailer is also not a live preview, but a taped preview a week later, so it will be released the night after the live stream starts.

The live broadcast starts tomorrow morning, and the crew have set up cameras in several of the rooms at XiShan One that will be recorded as they leave.

In addition to a few large fixed camera positions in the bedroom and living room, there are also half a dozen cameras in the corners of the stairs, on the centre island, on the sofa, in the bathroom and in the garden.

There are also infrared cameras after the lights go out, and hand-held cameras for the guests, adding up to a total of over forty cameras.

That's why I say that the planning of All Those Years was tough enough.

Basically, guests are not given any bit of privacy.

There will be a total of seven channels during the live broadcast.

Each family will have a dedicated live channel, that is four.

Then Confluence has one large live channel, followed by the Wedding Observer with two live channels.

In order to provide fans with a smooth live stream, All Those Years has spent a lot of money on live streaming equipment.

The footage is again high definition and produces a lot of detail.

In the last episode, a male artist collapsed in a room because he was caught on a live HD camera chatting on his mobile phone.

In the background is not his wife, but a selfie of another female netizen.

After this issue the live cams of All Those Years became the internal entertainment demonoscope.

Whenever he is on the show, he is photographed.

That's why the second season of the show has never been more talked about.

Apart from Lu Jiayan and Sheng Mingzhi, who have never been seen together, the other three couples are all well-known as loving couples in the entertainment industry.

The next morning's 8am broadcast was pre-empted on Twitter and DouBan the first night, with posts all over the place and the buzz continuing.

Probably due to the poisonous nature of the 'husband and wife' pair, Sheng Mingzhi was the most talked about.

Keyword search with a wide variety of titles.

-Who understands, I'm like a helpless fucking father waiting outside a maternity ward for his baby to be born.

-I'm a little nervous, Sheng Mingzhi is not going to pull his crotch at the last minute.

-Help. Why is it that watching a romance roundup makes you curl up inside!

-No, I'm really in the mindset of worrying about my son's kindergarten.jpg

-I'm dying for a candy bar, the kids haven't had a good meal in months (puppy tears)

- Sheng Mingzhi That temper will say what ah ...... mainly do not know the character of Old Lu board ah ......

......

There are netizens who discuss, there are netizens who rebel, and there are also posts that are not positive, and anti-fans who fish in troubled waters.

- Sheng Mingzhi: I wish him luck in getting banned for recording a live variety show with such a mouthy person!

-What can be true love in a marriage between such groups?

-Don't ask, just ask Sheng Jia, the owner and the owner's wife.

-Tomorrow Mei Mei wa Sheng Mingzhi overturned

......

Regardless of the internet discussion, the next morning arrived at 8am as promised.

At eight o'clock sharp, the official microblog of "All Those Years, Together" went live, and all the fans swiped out a tweet in the midst of all the attention:

@AllThoseYearsTogether: The Early Eights Assemble! Did you ever fight to get up early in those years? No? If not, come on the air to see how four couples start their day!

@ Sheng Mingzhi, link: [Live Channel 1]

Tweets from @actor Ma Xiao @ Xu Manman, link: [Live Channel 2]

@ Lu Jin Lu@ Pei Lexuan, link: [Live Channel 3]

@ Li Meng @SweetStrawberry, link: [Live Channel 4]

......

Seven live channels opened at the same time, and despite it being Monday morning eight, the fans waiting for those years to premiere were in the hundreds of thousands, instantly flooding into the different live channels.

In direct channel two are the film stars, Mr and Mrs Ma Xiao.

In the live feed, Ma Xiao and his wife Xu Manman are already up and the camera pans over the couple as Xu Manman prepares breakfast for her husband in the kitchen and Ma Xiao is exercising in Tai Chi on the balcony.

Pop-ups.

"2333 What an old married couple picture this is!"

"Ahhhhhhhh confessing to Mamoru's new drama! Looking forward to your performance!"

"Mamoru's high ponytail look 1"

"Vegan is also too beatable, the home look is really warm and gentle, love love love!"

......

Live channel two is Lu Jin and Pei Lexuan.

Pei Lexuan is in the kitchen preparing breakfast and Lu Jin is in the bathroom washing up, with cameras on both sides, and the director's team switching between them to take in both of their views. Lu Jin comes out of the shower, wearing only a scarf, revealing his lean upper body, and walks into the kitchen.

Pop-ups.

"Help is this something you can watch without paying for it!"

" Brother Lu the figure!!! Give me a lick!"

Pei Lexuan laughed, "Just a few more minutes and then we can have breakfast."

Lu Jin gave him a look and laughed, "No good morning kiss?"

Pei Lexuan blushes and leaves a kiss on Lu Jin's lips.

The scene was instantly filled with pink bubbles.

Pop-ups.

"It's so sweet, it's knocking me out!"

"Oooooooh, Brother Lu is some breed of bully, so sexually charged!"

"Little Pei is so good, getting up early to prepare breakfast for Brother Lu~"

......

Host Li Meng and his new wife, Strawberry, have a similar live studio.

After all, when you come to participate in the show "All Those Years", you know in your heart that your every move is living in the sight of hundreds of thousands of fans, so you can't really let the cameras capture your daily appearance at eight o'clock, so you are basically preparing breakfast at this hour.

Not to mention the fact that Strawberry is a big netizen with a lot of baggage. She woke up at 6am and had a stylist do a delicate mommy-born heartfelt vegan makeup, which was perfect when she and Li Meng appeared in the live footage.

It doesn't hurt to be a little careful, after all, these are the show's talking points.

And Li Meng has also taken the initiative to call out the show's sponsors.

The live broadcast advertised a milk brand and mobilised the atmosphere in the room.

Pop-ups.

"How did Strawberry tie this ball head today, a tutorial?"

"Wow, Mon your breakfast looks so good ......"

"Hahahaha, this dedication is worthy of a professional host!"

"Put the toast on the public screen!"

......

Until Li Meng, the atmosphere in the live room was one of laughter.

The average fan of the show, including passersby, certainly doesn't watch only three live streams, so they followed the others and finally came to Sheng Mingzhi's live stream.

Unlike the other three live rooms where its fun to make breakfast.

Sheng Mingzhi's live stream - it's a black screen.

Yes, it's a black screen.

But on closer inspection, it's not exactly a black screen; I should say that a room with no lights on was filmed.

At once, passers-by posted pop-ups.

"???"

"What's going on? Did I leave the lights on in the live room?"

"...... I don't have night mode on."

"My computer is on a black screen, is anyone like me?"

"All the other live streams are normal, why is it so strange here?"

Then, only then, were the deep cabinet fans who had been squatting in the live room from the start.

Even the pop-ups are different from the soft and cute style of the other live streams, they are different and full of all kinds of weirdness.

"Light a cigarette.jpg"

"How do I tell passers-by that Sheng Mingzhi was asleep when I arrived half an hour ago?"

"Yes, half an hour has passed and the little wanker is still asleep and has no intention of waking up."

"I testify that I watched the black screen for half an hour (lit cigarette.jpg)"

"@TheProgrammer, did you guys not inform him to record the show today?"

"How can I put it, no surprise, Sheng Mingzhi, how true you are (grimace)"

"I see, is this the extravagant life of the boss's wife?"

"Fuck, I can't take it anymore! Does the camera come with voice mode, someone get the fuck up and wake him up!"

"The dogs are awake (and angry) at this hour."

"Can I report it, want to report the live feed (dog head)"

......

It was only after reading the pop-ups that passers-by understood.

It turned out that it wasn't the computer that was blacked out, it was the guest in that live room who was still asleep.

Oh.

So it's not awake yet.

......

......

Grass?

What's going on? Why is this live stream so strange?

You shouldn't? Is this the attitude of recording a big hit like this?

Passers-by were full of questions when they saw this.

But strangely enough, the more the picture was painted, the more passers-by wanted to see what was going on with this guest instead.

The number of passersby who came to hear about it surprisingly increased by 30,000 to 40,000, and Sheng Mingzhi's live stream became the second hottest live stream - the first one was Lu Jin's, which attracted a lot of sugar-kissed cp fans because of the sweet interaction.

At last, the man in the bed stirred.

Sheng Mingzhi rolls over and finally reveals a veiled face.

Under the HD camera, Sheng Mingzhi's face is not to be underestimated, even without make-up.

The face that no one in the entertainment industry can beat is not to be blown away, even with a messy chicken's nest head, you can still see a hint of sweetness and simplicity.

It's nothing like the usual sharp-tongued, hair-to-toe delicacy of the little work than.

The sleeping face makes him look even more boyish, like a student who hasn't graduated from high school.

Still asleep and dead.

There is absolutely no intention of waking up.

But after he revealed his face, inexplicably, the pop-ups in the live stream suddenly boiled over.

"I'm grass I'm grass showing my face!"

"Fuck, does Sheng Mingzhi really look like this in person? I fucking thought he had plastic surgery."

"That is to say how can someone veg out like a ps refinement, tired and destroyed."

"In my next life let me try to look like this."

"Looking less obnoxious than usual when you're asleep."

"Indeed, it's quite a bit smoother."

"Is this him sleeping? This is a coma, right family members?"

" Did Lu Jiayan give you a masking drug last night?"

"In? I paid thirty bucks for a live membership just to come see you sleep?"

A passer-by also spoke.

"I feel like a psycho for not looking at Brother Lu's abs next door while he sleeps (lit cigarette.jpg)"

"It feels like everyone's pop-ups in the live stream are so funny, are you guys fans of his?"

And then the pop-ups were in unison.

"It's not powder, don't insult people."

Passerby continues.

"Who are these little brothers, curious?"

And then the anti-fans popped up in unison.

"Vegetarians among the stars."

"The Netflix of vegetarians."

Passerby: "......"

How dare you guys say you're not fans of his with this level of silence?

Military training can't even do what you guys do so uniformly, can it? Isn't that a lot of love?

Just as the pop-ups from "anti-fans" and passers-by were swiping thickly, there was finally movement in the bedroom.

The doorway opens a crack and Lu Jiayan appears.

The room was dimly lit, but that didn't stop the fact that Lu Jiayan is a handsome man, as you can see from his silhouette.

As the door opens and some light shines in from outside, Lu Jiayan's face gradually appears on the live camera.

He had obviously been up for a long time.

Netizens are used to seeing him dressed up in a suit, but this is the first time they see him in a loungewear.

The casual black shirt is buttoned up to the top button of the collar.

Despite the tight cover, Lu Jiayan's sultry male vixen face gives him an inexplicably ascetic feel.

Unlike the last few times I saw a blurred face on Weibo, Lu Jiayan's face in HD is completely flawless.

Even in the entertainment industry, it's still a great deal to crush the crowd.

Instantly, the pop-ups exploded even more than they had earlier: the

"Help, help, help! I've seen the magazine picture but I'm actually more handsome in person than in the magazine picture!!!"

"The scene I've been waiting for the most has come up!!!"

"We should all be grateful to Sheng Mingzhi for seeing such a living bully in our lifetime and say: thank you Sheng Mingzhi."

"Indeed. How could the boss be on Variety if he wasn't used to this as a comparison."

"Speechless, knocked me out again (lit cigarette.jpg)"

"There really is such a bully in this world who is both good-looking and strong (cries)"

"I said why did I go black for two seconds before my eyes turned out to be dazzled by the handsomeness ......"

"I became jealous of Sheng Mingzhi ."

"Holy shit I'm such a bitch, Lu Jin live over there topless for me I'm not interested, I just want to see the boss undress (horny)"

......

Lu Jiayan is not able to see the pop-ups.

The room was very quiet, and what was different from the usual was the extra cameras.

As always, he sat on the edge of the bed and tried to wake Sheng Mingzhi a second time.

Last night was so rowdy that his little flower peacock didn't drift off to sleep until 2.30am and usually doesn't get up until 11pm.

Although Lu Jiayan doesn't quite understand this abnormal schedule for young people.

But he couldn't do anything about Sheng Mingzhi, and nine times out of ten, he let him sleep in until noon.

Only today, during the live recording, Lu Jiayan, in the spirit of professionalism, softly shouted, " Mingzhi, wake up eh?"

As soon as they opened their mouths, the pop-ups began to explode.

"I'm dead."

"Thanks, it's been recorded for the morning bell."

"All men come to me to learn that bubbly sounds are not the only thing in the world that is soo, normal speech is also soo!"

"Substitute for the fact that I'm already waking up a little Stepford wife from an eighty square meter bed.jpg"

......

Sheng Mingzhi is in a daze and seems to hear Lu Jiayan's voice.

As a special needs student, getting up was the thing he hated most in his life.

So grunted a little to show that he heard.

But the body is not going to move at all.

Lu Jiayan had to say, "We're recording a show today, remember?"

Oh.

Come to think of it.

Mr. Sheng Jr. was even more distressed.

For a moment, a million thoughts flashed through his mind about putting off the offer to record the show.

The voice spoke a little clammy, "Can I stop attending ......"

The camera is complete with all the sounds.

Even Sheng Mingzhi's slimy, soft breath when he's not up is clearly recorded.

Pop-ups.

"?"

"Fuck, I'm a woman who's weak in the knees from hearing that."

"Shit, you usually talk to us with this attitude?"

"Good, double standard is it, knock it hard."

"Who understands. Sheng Mingzhi is exactly the same as myself when I get up in the morning and try to find a way to take time off."

......

Eye can't push off the show.

Sheng Mingzhi struggled a little and finally got up from under the covers with difficulty.

As soon as he woke up, he fell on top of Lu Jiayan and hung his arms around his neck, then leaned against him with his eyes closed and went back to sleep without any burden.

With his mouth full, he justifiably ordered, "You carry me."

Pop-ups.

"...... Let's just say there's a reason we don't have a date."

"So good at spooning ......"

"Is this something I can watch without paying for it."

"Shock my mum. Sheng Mingzhi is so clingy in private."

"Nothing like his toothy self on Twitter ......"

"To be honest I was compelled by his comment, I'm Lu Jiayan I can't hold it in a bit either."

"Holy shit is this acting, does Sheng Mingzhi know that it's live right now??"

......

Lu Jiayan paused inexplicably, then said thoughtfully, "Are you sure?"

Sheng Mingzhi nodded breathlessly and seemed a little impatient, "Hurry up and hug me!"

Thinking what else is there to be sure of that not being sure of.

Usually, he is a scoundrel and allows Lu Jiayan to carry him to the bathroom.

Lu Jiayan laughs, "But we're recording today."

Again, it was emphasized.

Sheng Mingzhi muttered, breaking the ice: "Just record it, just have them cut it out when the time comes anyway, and you tell them not to broadcast it."

The work is clear and unambiguous.

It seems to have been completely forgotten that the variety show All Those Years was a live format.

Apparently, Sheng Mingzhi was not at all awake.

The brain is not sufficient to provide him with the ability to think.

Lu Jiayan had to remind him again, somewhat derisively, " Mingzhi, but this time the show was recorded live."

The word "live" is slightly aggravated.

Sheng Mingzhi seems to have understood a little.

It just hadn't reacted and the expression was a little bewildered.

He explained slowly, "In other words, there's no way to cut it off."

As if Sheng Mingzhi didn't understand what the broadcast meant, Lu Jiayan continued, "What you just said was probably heard by more than 200,000 people."

And then, deliberately, he asked again, without a hint of cover-up: "So little Mr... will you still want to hold?"

......

......

The room was so quiet that you could hear a pin drop on the floor.

Sheng Mingzhi is still hanging on to Lu Jiayan's body, but it is clear that the body has stiffened into a stone, visible to the eye.

My mind went blank and all that remained was "Holy shit?" The word.

The room was quiet.

But the pop-ups are going crazy.

"HUG!!! Give me a hard hug!!!"

"Hilarious, after all that he didn't even know it was live!"

"Grass, is the chilli oil boss so bad in private, I love it so much."

"Help, help, help this is more horrible than he is acting ah, he is actually so spiteful in private!!!"

"I got a real bully and a masterpiece, I love this bite so much, I'm totally fine with more sugar!!!"

"Knocked me dead, the family was saying who knocked me dead and it turned out to be me."

"Knocked out a bit.jpg"

"Oh my God, my embarrassment for people is back and I'm clawing at the ground with my toes!"

"Families let's just say a whole lot of socially deadly action!"

......

And so, in the presence of hundreds of thousands of fans.

Sheng Mingzhi slowly slides down towards the comforter with an immovable but determined speed.

Then gradually the whole person is covered with the quilt.

An attempt to create the illusion that my society does not exist as long as it cannot be seen to die.

Total self-deception!

Lu Jiayan stifled a laugh and tugged down on his blanket, "Little Mr. Sheng?"

Sheng Mingzhi, embarrassed, had goosebumps starting from his toes and was now on the verge of embarrassing himself. Hearing Lu Jiayan's unsuspecting voice, he immediately thought he was doing it on purpose and muffled under the covers, "Little Mr. Sheng is not here!"

Shit!

The first day of the live broadcast went badly!!!

How could he have forgotten something as important as the recording format of All Those Years being live!!!

Until Lu Jiayan reminded him of this, Sheng Mingzhi took it for granted that it was a recording and had just said he wanted to cut it ......

Help.

Not even makeup or styling!

His iconic baggage!!! It's broken into pieces!!!

The more he thought about it, the angrier Sheng Mingzhi became, the more he lifted the blanket and glared at Lu Jiayan: "You did that on purpose!"

Lu Jiayan said languidly, "Deliberately what?"

What else?

Sheng Mingzhi thought, "You're still playing dumb," and said, "If you hadn't insisted last night-"

--Have to drag him around until two o'clock, little Mr. Sheng... As for being so tired that he falls asleep and then sleeps until he's delirious and forgets to broadcast!

Just halfway through the conversation, I remembered that the live broadcast was still in progress.

Sheng Mingzhi An emergency brake was applied and the words just got stuck.

Lu Jiayan smiled and said ambiguously, "What do you have to be?"

Sheng Mingzhi A little red in the ears: "......"

The pop-ups picked up almost instantly.

Swiped in general, it exploded straight away and neatly: the

-- "What does it have to be? We're all on the same side, don't be a stranger, expand on that!!!"
