Chapter 102 Meng Hetang's Low-Level Mistake
Six people were listening to the voice and typing. Qi Long, who used the computer frequently, was fine, but Sha Yi and Yue Yunpeng both used one-finger Zen to type on the computer, using two fingers to find the letters and type, and their speed was extremely slow.
At this time, Qi Long thought of a question. WeChat can convert voice into text, so why can't computers do the same?
And it seems that the editing software can also automatically recognize subtitles, right?
Sharpening the knife does not delay the chopping of wood. He used his mobile phone to search and learn on the Internet, and he actually learned it.
Let AI recognize the subtitles and then correct the typos. This is much easier than typing one word at a time. You still have to use your brain!
On the other side, Sa Beining also had an idea. He logged into WeChat on his computer directly, then used voice input on his mobile phone to send it, and then he just had to copy and paste it on the computer.
These two are relatively smart. They each finished entering subtitles for their own 15-minute video, while the others are still far behind.
The first two people to finish will receive a reward and go to the coffee shop downstairs of the TV station to learn how to make coffee. After they are done, they will make a cup for each of the directors, photographers, and assistants in their program group and the filming team, and then they can clock out.
The third and fourth ones to finish have to go to the TV station cafeteria to help in the kitchen, wash vegetables, etc., and they can go home after their team members have finished eating.
The fifth and sixth places had the most trouble, as they had to wait until the TV station got off work, clean a large area and buy lunch boxes for the employees from the program crew who accompanied them to work overtime.
After learning about their mission, Qi Long and Sa Beining laughed out loud, Great, great!
Qi Long also gave them four tips seriously: "Don't say I don't help my friends. Press Alt + F4 and you can do it quickly."
Yue Yunpeng turned his head immediately. When there was no camera, he would believe what Qi Long said. With the camera on and Qi Long acting so seriously, it must be funny: "Only a fool would press that button!"
"Ah? Why is my video gone?" Sha Yi was suddenly shocked.
“Hahahahahaha!” Yue Yunpeng laughed: “You actually believed what my uncle-master said? Was Deyun just calling me a bad uncle?”
Hearing this, Nicometti, who also pressed the button, silently pressed "Cancel" on the option box that asked whether to save the document before exiting, without saying a word.
Yes, Qi Long was just planning a little trick. The video editing software was closed, but the video was still there when he opened it, and the document couldn't be closed because it wasn't saved, so it was just a little joke.
Qi Long and Sa Beining left and quickly finished making the coffee.
"Qi Long and Sa Beining have finished recording 'Adventures on Television'. Clap!" The director clapped his hands, and the recording of the two of them ended.
After finishing the recording, the two brothers did not leave work immediately, but went upstairs to watch Nicometti and Ruan Jingtian peeling potatoes.
"Run, run, the bandit has a knife!" Seeing Ruan Jingtian holding a paring knife, Sa Beining immediately pulled Qi Long to do something funny.
Qi Long waved his hand: "Don't be afraid, just look at me!"
He pulled his arm out of the sleeve of his suit, leaving an empty sleeve. Like Yang Guo, he came to Ruan Jingtian’s side, twisted his body, and slapped Ruan Jingtian with his sleeve like a whip: “Cut it well!”
This is a clip from Ruan Jingtian's movie. He went to a brainwashing bad organization to confess his crimes, and the villain whipped him and made him say "I am guilty" or something like that.
Ruan Jingtian also knew that it was a variety show effect, so he suppressed his laughter and repeated, "I'll cut it well!"
"Be quicker!" Qi Long swung his sleeves again.
"I'll be more agile."
"No dawdling!"
"I won't dawdle!"
According to the crosstalk, the groundwork has been laid, and it's time to reveal the punchline. Aren't you imitating how people talk? Learn it well!
Qi Long swung his sleeves again and gently dropped them on Ruan Jingtian's shoulders:
[If you can stew my stewed frozen tofu, just stew my stewed frozen tofu]
"What a stew!" Ruan Jingtian couldn't hold back his laughter: "Hahahahahaha!"
Since we are going to make tongue twisters for "Eighteen Worries" recently, Qi Long's mind is full of tongue twisters, and he also uses them for the jokes.
While Qi Long was teasing Ruan Jingtian, Sa Beining went to find Nicometti.
They had just finished their work, and over there, Nicometti listened to Sa Beining's advice and looked at a basket of potatoes with a serious face, with a peeled potato in his left hand and a paring knife in his right hand.
He said to a basket of potatoes: "I'll give you one minute. If you don't leave this basket, you will end up like him!"
This is also a clip from Ruan Jingtian’s movie. Seeing Nicometti’s exaggerated acting towards Potato, the three brothers laughed and applauded together.
After the fun, Qi Long helped them peel a potato. He did this when he was a part-time worker. At that time, he found that peeling potatoes with an iron spoon was faster than using a knife, and less potato pulp was scraped off. This method was immediately adopted by Nicomati and Ruan Jingtian.
After playing a prank on these two, he went upstairs to play a prank on Yue Yunpeng and Sha Yi, and then the two of them left the recording site and clocked out.
As soon as Qi Long got off work, he used his mobile phone to search for pandas in the Imperial Capital Zoo. When he watched the interview clip of Sha Yi today, the background was a panda named Menglan performing splits on a tree, with her hands making a big heart above her head.
At that time, Qi Long and Sa Beining were both so touched by it that they exclaimed, "Could this be a person wearing a panda suit?"
If you are curious, just take a look and relax. If you go on a date with your girlfriend in the future, you can also go there to see the pandas and tell her stories about pandas.
In Tianjin, Guo Degang’s special performance to visit his relatives, Qi Long and Dong Qiang were also supporting actors in this performance.
It has been mentioned before that crosstalk is not easy to perform in Tianjin, because the audience knows more about it than you do and it is hard to make them laugh. People come here just to listen to the crosstalk.
Unexpectedly, Meng Hetang's opening crosstalk was a mess.
The most critical problem was that Xiao Meng was nervous and made a wrong start.
Everyone knows that Tianjin audiences like old jokes, and he also took on a kung fu trick: "The Bodyguard"!
There is a saying in the crosstalk industry: The literary ones are afraid of "Wen Zhang Hui" and the martial arts ones are afraid of "The Big Bodyguard".
It can be seen that this is a job that requires skills. The funny man has to play the role of a martial arts family. As a result, perhaps because of nervousness, Meng Hetang introduced himself as soon as he came on stage and used his own name and Jiuliang's name to make jokes. Many young audiences in the audience were still laughing, but some uncles frowned directly.
As a result, after Meng Hetang played the name joke with Zhou Jiuliang, he realized that something was wrong and went back to the old ways, saying that crosstalk was his side job and his main job was a martial artist.
In this way, the story is complete, but the rhythm of the crosstalk is ruined.
An old man in the audience simply shouted, "Get off!"
Faced with the emergency, Zhou Jiuliang wanted to make a joke: "Did you hear that? They told you to get off!"
The old man yelled, "You go down too!"
"what"
The audience who don’t often listen to crosstalk and only pay attention to the crosstalk performers are still laughing and listening for fun.
Meng Hetang and Zhou Jiuliang knew clearly that the other person was indeed annoyed. If it had happened in the past, tea bowls would have flown up. Let's be thankful for the new era!
The two brothers quickly sped up the pace.
Old Guo, who was listening in the backstage, also drooped his face: "It's really nothing. How could you make such a low-level mistake?"
He thought the crosstalk performed by Meng Hetang and Qi Long was pretty good and could amuse the audience, so he brought him this time. What kind of crosstalk did they perform?
Wrong start?
In the crosstalk world, if the apprentice is not good, it is a disgrace to the master.
Why were people not allowed to go on stage before they became masters? If you made a mistake on stage, your fellow disciples would laugh at you, not you, but your master. The audience would also scold the master. If you didn't teach well, would you let him go? Are you trying to cheat them out of money?
Nowadays, the audience is much more tolerant and crosstalk masters are graduating quickly. No matter it is Deyun Society, other classes or mainstream folk art troupes, they just learn one or two sections and then go on stage without caring about anything else.
This is a common problem in the entire crosstalk circle and even the entire entertainment industry. There is no way to solve it.
With the fast pace and entertainment sweeping across the world, who can study hard for so long? There are more and more people who are just filling in the gaps among crosstalk performers, singers, and actors.
Meng Hetang was a diligent learner and Guo Degang had high hopes for him. However, such a low-level problem occurred today and he was a little embarrassed.
When Guo Degang got angry, his disciples backstage became silent and didn't dare to speak at all. There was total silence backstage.
At this moment, a voice came from the corner.
"I fell, I fell, please pull me up, Qi Long, Dong Qiang, are you two behaved? You left me and drove away!" Hou Zhen yelled.
Qi Long and Dong Qiang said together: "It's impossible to save him, the poison circle is coming!"
Hou Zhen insisted on dragging the two brothers to play PUBG, but the sound of the three of them playing games eased the atmosphere backstage.
Hou Zhen put down his phone and turned around to see that everyone in the room was looking at the three of them. He asked in confusion, "Why are you looking at us?"
"The field is muddy!"
"Ah? There was an accident? Tell me quickly, I want to listen, hehehe!" The Marquis, who was not afraid of big things, sat over to listen to the fun.
Guo Degang had no idea what to do with him and could only smile helplessly.
Forget it, the performance is still going on, I’ll train you later!
The next show was by Lao Guo and Yu Qian, which was an opera performance. Qi Long and Dong Qiang also stopped playing with their phones because it was their turn next.
"The venue is not right?" Qi Long wondered on the side stage.
"Something went wrong just now. Xiao Meng's tempo was too fast, the jokes were not delivered clearly, and the show was not lively. Mr. Guo's traditional opera was not funny either. The only time there was applause was when he adjusted the pitch!" Hou Zhen explained.
Oh, the opening was not good, and the second show was not noisy. There were many audiences who were not interested in opera, so it was not passionate enough.
"Is that so? Then it seems I can't force my way into this world!" Qi Long thought.
Originally, thinking that the performance would be in Tianjin and the audience would like to watch old crosstalk skits, Qi Long planned to just force his way into the performance and start by reciting tongue twisters.
But if the atmosphere is not hot, it is better to pick up the conversation and make a few remarks.
"You talk and I'll continue!" Dong Qiang echoed.
"Well, let me think about what to say. Let's talk about some jokes from Tianjin, get closer to the audience, and lead them into a debate of flattery and humor. Let's compete in tongue twisters, how do you think?"
"it is good!"
Guo Degang and Yu Qian left the stage. The two of them have a large audience base for their crosstalk and they gave him quite a warm round of applause.
Hou Zhen took the microphone and went on stage: "Next, please enjoy the crosstalk "Eighteen Sad Tongue Twisters", performed by Qi Long and Gao Dongqiang!"
In the front row, including the old man who had just chased Meng Hetang off the stage, many older people all frowned, and their applause was perfunctory or they didn't applaud at all.
You can tell from their expressions that they are dissatisfied.
I just listened to a crosstalk and now two young people are here? Are they okay?
