Recently, iQiyi, which has continuously created several high-commercial value variety shows, has actually launched a variety show that belongs to "drama people".
The start of the broadcast is from 9 minutes, I really can't help but talk about -

Liu Tianqi, actor, screenwriter and director, his work "Chicken and Rabbit in the Cage" won the 7th Wuzhen Drama Festival Youth Competition Award.
Xiu Rui, graduated from the Performance Department of Beijing Contemporary Music Academy;
Although it is almost a post-90s generation, it is often regarded as a boss... Xiu Rui Qiao Shan's combination gave the audience the deepest impression of "comedian".
With such a "heavenly troupe" of old, middle-aged and young people in the theater industry, what major events will the program team engage in?
They want this group of brothers to show the charm and difficulty of the drama in the form of a reality show.
The brothers came to Wuzhen, the hometown of Chinese drama, and the program team gave them a "down mawei" on the first day.
Live in the auditorium, sleep in a folding bed, eat a box lunch, and the funds are tight to the point of rounding equal to no funds...
In this environment, Huang Lei, the "director of the Theater Development Committee", gave them a question: Can drama make money?
This group of "drama people" has deeply experienced what is called "poverty", and when asked this question, the heart index is 1000%.
The brothers simply argued, although everyone felt that drama was not profitable, but it seemed that everyone could still eat a mouthful of food without starving, so they came to a unified conclusion:
Drama can't make a lot of money, but it can survive.
This conclusion, like the funding of the show, is rounded to equal: make money!
With a unified answer, the brothers also ushered in their first challenge, and they spent three days rehearsing a play for all ages in a "chicken farm".
If they act well, they can reap the funds, and if they don't act well, then the subsequent shows will continue to be stretched.
This group of brothers deserves to be a theater troupe, and the first time they discussed, they got the synopsis of the story:
The story of The Chicken Carmela.
A picture book for children, with the efforts of this group of talented brothers, has become a story that directly pokes at the softest place in people's hearts!
Every chicken in a chicken farm knows that the chicken's vocation is to lay eggs, and chickens that can't lay eggs can only become spicy chicken shreds.
But Xiaolan is different, it has a good friend seagull, who tells it a lot of stories about the sea.
Xiaolan wanted to see the sea, and whether it was the owner of the chicken farm, his parents, or his ancestors, he was advised to give up this unrealistic idea.
Xiao Lan decided to go to see the sea no matter what.
It escaped from the chicken coop, waded through the mountains, and met Columbus, a navigator who was already starving to death, in the vast desert.
Before Columbus was about to eat Orchid, he asked Orchid how a chicken could be in the desert.
Little Lan said to Columbus: My friend told me that there is everything in the sea, Mr. Columbus, please tell me if this is true?
Columbus was in pain, he had seen the sea, but got lost while landing looking for food, and lost the direction of the sea.
Xiao Lan suddenly felt the call of the sea, it sensed the direction of the sea, broke away from Columbus and ran to the sea.
When Columbus and his party chased Xiaolan, they were also taken back to the sea by Xiaolan.
The sea is the ideal, the goal, the unrealistic poetry and the distance, and the noblest direction in the heart.
When all the brothers on the stage called for the sea, the tear glands of the audience under the stage and across the screen burst.
At a time when most audiences are making television and movies a daily routine, there are many who have yet to try to perform theatrical performances
Although the theatrical performances on the stage interpret the same stories in movies and television, the feelings brought by them are unmatched shocks that movies and television cannot match.
Real actors, vivid performances, sincere emotional interaction, the drama stage allows the characters in the story to poke into the audience's senses like needles, and the emotional impact reaches people's hearts.
Unlike movies, which can be played in copies around the world, theater performances can only be performed one by one due to stage restrictions, and tickets can be sold one by one.
The funds required to make a film and rehearse a play are basically the same, but the film can quickly become profitable after it is released, and the drama has to go through a long performance, and even the profitability cannot be guaranteed.
Cinemas play copies, only need to provide venue equipment, this convenience to ensure that the movie tickets are close to the people.
The performance of the drama, but due to the limitation of live-action interpretation, the ticket price is much more expensive than the movie ticket.
In addition, in the cognition of many friends, they regard drama as a yangchun white snow with high composition and widowhood, and the circle of watching drama is getting smaller and smaller.
The living space of drama has always been difficult in the environment of capital pursuit of profits, and it is precisely because there are so many theater people who are willing to endure poverty for the stage.
The brothers who participate in the variety show are only the epitome of the drama crowd.
Unlike film and television actors with low thresholds, theater actors need to undergo rigorous training to truly assume the ability to stand on stage and perform.
Compared with traffic stars, they pay real sweat, they love real performances, but they have been trapped in poverty.
They are willing to participate in variety shows, hoping to take advantage of the popular reality show and "go out of the circle" with drama, so that more audiences can feel the charm of drama.
Judging from the ratings, the brothers endured the "bitterness" of the camera following the camera all day and enduring the tight time of financial difficulties.
This national variety show, in the absence of the blessing of traffic stars, rushed to the second place in the variety show list.
Drama, never separated from life, drama people use their talent and acting skills, breaking the wall between the drama and the vast audience, so that more people feel the "light" of drama.
If you like drama, don't miss this variety show, see what the theater masters look like under the stage, and peek into the secrets behind the theater stage.
If you have not seen a drama, then come after this variety show and embark on the road of the drama you love, you will find that life is drama, and drama is life.
