This star just wants to learn

"Why?"

Pu Tong asked this question for Chen Siqing.

It was not that he had any objection to the result, he was just curious about why he was not selected for performing such a successful sketch.

His question touched everyone's heart. Not only Pu Tong and others, everyone present wanted to know why.

Why was the sketch that made all the judges laugh out loud not selected? Why is there no chance to continue watching such a good program?

Everyone is watching the show "Trafficking". They haven't seen such a funny sketch in how many years, one year, or two years?

Others present are also performers of the show, and they also know that excellent works should not be buried.

They only knew that this skit was funny and made everyone laugh and regain their energy after a tiring day at the audition.

The staff at the backstage were frightened by Pu Tong's serious questioning and hurriedly said that they were just reporting results...

Pu Tong rubbed his brows. Of course he knew that the one who made the final decision was the jury sitting in the audience who were amused by this skit.

That's why he wanted to know why, why did they reject a program that brought them laughter.

The atmosphere backstage was eerily quiet. The original scenes of joy and sorrow among several people did not appear after the preliminary program was announced. Everyone forgot about the status of their own programs and focused on this sketch.

Many people who were selected felt that their program could not compare to "Selling Abduction", and many people who were not selected felt that their program was not as good as "Selling Abduction".

Yes, is there any program more pity than this sketch?

Other programs failed because they were not exciting, or because the competition was too strong, but "Selling Kidnapping" was obviously the most exciting among several sketch programs, and the results were announced and it was eliminated. Isn't it a pity?

"Why?"

I don't know who whispered something in a low voice. This question was like a pebble falling into the lake, causing ripples in an instant.

One by one bystanders asked why, and the questions gathered together and gradually turned into a loud question.

But they didn't intend to question it. The reason why they did this was just out of the respect of content creators for high-quality works.

They just wonder if their work wins a lot of applause, will someone ask "why" for them?

Seeing that the scene backstage was a bit chaotic, the staff did not dare to neglect and immediately reported the situation to the superiors. To be honest, they also wanted to know why, if this sketch was so funny, it was eliminated without even a chance to observe.

But they were just thinking about it, and they didn’t count what they said specifically...

"Stop everyone."

Pu Tong found a space with the lowest voice and interrupted everyone's questioning behavior.

He just wanted to ask about the reason for being eliminated from this show. He had no other intention. If everyone rashly followed them to express questions, it could easily be misinterpreted. This is not good for anyone...

If it's a matter of details in the script and the stage performance is so good, maybe we can still fight for it. If it's some other issue, then there's nothing to say about their inferior skills.

He asked to better solve the problem, not to cause conflicts.

Pu Tong's words seemed to have a unique magic power. The people who were still asking questions instantly fell silent, as if they were not the ones who had just raised the question.

The staff looked at Pu Tong gratefully. If he hadn't interrupted these people in time, I really don't know how this matter would have ended today.

Not long after the backstage became quiet, several people hurriedly walked towards the corner leading to the stage, including Wei Mingfeng.

They met everyone's gaze and slowly came to Pu Tong and the others.

Wei Mingfeng actually heard what happened just now. What he didn't expect was that these people would listen to Pu Tong's words so much.

With one stunning work after another, this kid has silently impressed many people in the circle. In the chaotic situation just now, he was the only one who could make everyone calm down at the same time.

While feeling impressed by Pu Tong's intelligence and general knowledge, he also vaguely felt that this boy had shown some potential to become the "first person"...

"Uncle Wei, is there anything wrong with the show "Trafficking"?"

He wasn't very familiar with the other two people, but Wei Mingfeng was Pu Tong's old friend. He looked at Wei Mingfeng, wanting to get an answer from him.

"The program is very good. "Selling Kidnappers" is an excellent sketch." Wei Mingfeng sighed, as if he didn't know how to explain it, "It's just that it's not suitable for the Spring Festival Gala stage..."

As soon as this statement came out, the originally quiet backstage exploded again, and everyone began to whisper about what was a suitable stage for the Spring Festival Gala.

Chen Siqing and Tang Luocheng's breaths froze when they heard this. Is it because of this?

But they had obviously practiced very hard, and they didn't act like the little old man. Chen Siqing searched a lot of videos of the little old man and watched them while learning. As if it was not easy to praise, Tang Luocheng took a lot of notes to find his own rhythm...

It turns out that it’s not that they are not good enough, but just because they are inappropriate? The two of them gave a stiff smile and seemed to feel a lot better.

"But isn't it important to be happy during the Chinese New Year? Such a funny sketch is inappropriate!"

Iori Yukino muttered, and Wei Mingfeng and others glanced at her, making Sakura Girl shrink back behind Lin Yuxi in fright.

Yes, when the art form of sketch was born, wasn't it just to bring joy to everyone? Didn't "Selling Abduction" do that? Obviously the judges all laughed!

"The Spring Festival Gala is a national stage. Although it is an entertainment program, it must also be educational and thought-provoking."

One of the judges paused and explained: "The story of the sketch should also fit the people's living conditions and backgrounds, such as breakups and divorces, returning home for the New Year, workers who stick to their jobs..."

Pu Tong frowned. He had heard these words more than once.

He has also watched sketch shows like this many times.

However, are these works that forcibly elevate their themes and concepts really funny?

In the past, the sketches only wanted to make the audience happy, but now the sketches always want to educate you. A ten-minute program must reflect the new era, promote positive energy, and elevate the theme. Is it really enough time?

But after three hundred and sixty-four days of busy work, everyone just wants to spend the last day happily watching a party with their families.

Even on New Year's Eve, can't everyone just sit in front of the TV and have a good laugh?

Pu Tong suddenly remembered the only party held by his high school class 10 years ago. They tried their best to be funny. He and his friends adapted the cross talk and practiced it for a long time. Everyone laughed. Finally, the dean made a speech and said, "There is more than enough joy but not enough thinking."

Thinking about it today, I still remember it vividly.

"I designed public service announcements, which contain many thought-provoking truths; I wrote opera songs and classical dances to make traditional culture shine; I asked three foreign singers to sing Chinese songs to express cultural confidence..."

"I can make many programs profound, elegant and educational, but I just want the sketches to simply bring happiness to everyone."

Pu Tong just stood there and talked.

He did everything he said.

If you want to enlighten people and gain access to the palace, there are obviously many other channels, so why do you have to stuff it into a sketch? Why should everyone be deprived of their heartless laughter?

Pu Tong likes to watch sketches very much, whether it is on the Spring Festival evening or when he picks them out alone. Even though he has seen these sketches countless times, he still stops and smiles knowingly every time he sees them.

So he spent a lot of time restoring this skit, which was more time than all the songs combined...

He checked a lot of information, learned the requirements for creating sketch scripts, and learned how to let many baggage unfold in sequence. This is the rhythm of the sketch stage.

Even though he remembered the sketch, as a complete layman, he still put in the effort to learn it and try his best to restore the story to its best.

Just because he loves skits.

But today, sketches have gradually become the most criticized program. Because of the lack of high-quality scripts, the accumulation of online jokes, over-exertion of performances, and the deliberately heightened sensationalism, sketches have become more and more boring.

But the biggest theme of the Spring Festival Gala sketch is happiness, happiness is the only theme, there is nothing else, and there is no need for anything else.

If even laughing out loud becomes a luxury, then this year will be too boring...

"let's go."

He waved to his friends.
