The new hilarious moment of "Five Ha" cracked

Life may be, and there is a surprise attack hidden somewhere.

One morning, when most people were still in deep sleep, the second season of "Hahahaha" suddenly moved. In the next few hours, they sent out a long list of real-time multiple choice questions on Weibo, without telling the specific situation, about what the members of the "Wuha Tour Group" wore today, what they ate, where to go, and how to go through the game levels, all handed over to strange netizens who happened to pass by to blindly choose.

After a late-night party, the unquenchable puzzle is what happened to the members of the group at the unknown location at the end of the night.

On December 18 and 19, the mystery was revealed, and in the latest fifth episode, it was like a Sims game, the members encountered many levels and tried to break through the desert island, but under the command of the blindfolded "God", they were forced to accept the dice thrown by "fate", marching involuntarily, full of randomness and new surprises.

Just like when Peng Yuchang was just woken up, he was quite excited in the face of a plate full of rice dumplings, buns, and snacks, and after eating his own portions, he still had no end to it, and ate the rice dumplings that Lu Han did not want to eat. Soon after, when the netizens of the important level chose the wrong one and they had to go back to the starting point to start again, they had to eat the same amount of full food again to continue, and Peng Yuchang felt for the first time what was so painful. But the bitterness of this breakfast, another squad composed of Deng Chao Chen He Liu Haoran may feel that they have more say, after all, the Western food they were designated was actually a sandwich made of "infamous" Swedish herring canned; what was even more shocking was that when they happened to meet Lu Han Peng Yuchang, who had eaten Western food for the Nth time in the breakfast link, they found that the herring sandwich they had eaten before was almost a gap between XL code and XS code compared with what the other party was getting now, and their mentality collapsed instantly.

In such randomness and excitement, trying to rush through the barrier and return to the original point over and over again, "Wuha" is like wandering and measuring the desert island with his footsteps, walking through the long sand road and the routine of the program group. In the last pass at the end of this period, the dawn is in sight, but the two squads simultaneously trigger a task to "trip" the other, and the process of "killing" both of them in an instant - under the control of the ruthless iron hand in the distance, the two sides once again pulled each other, so close to hope but the Nth time failed to escape, the ending is still unknown.

The members of the group are loveless and have a cracked mentality, and the audience is thick and laughs until it splits. As a result, this time the stage may be the most "useless" moment in the history of "Wuha", but it has also ushered in a new round of hilarious peaks this season.

Content humanistic innovation, attentive

A seemingly meaningless toss, in addition to making the audience laugh five times, some small thoughts have also settled.

The lonely desert island is like a dilemma in life, in such a vacuum environment of the desert island, under such a series of logic, rules, and levels, a small life experiment with quite a lot of intention is also revealing its true body.

I don't know what will happen in the next moment, maybe I will draw a bad hand and suffer a lot.

It seems that the road is going well, but they do not know that there are setbacks and lows ahead, and they may be beaten back to the starting point of the struggle.

Coming to an important crossroads, not knowing which choice will lead to where, nor how a choice will thrillingly determine your life.

When the members of the "Five Ha" were put into such a limited experiment, and such an exaggerated effect and a rapid effect were imposed, the impermanence of this life fate was magnified and intuitively held in front of people's eyes, leaving people with deep memory points in laughter.

And what is important is that when the show allows the members to return to the original point again and again to re-pass the level, in fact, it is also passing on a value and mentality: you need to pluck up the courage to start again, because there are always some unknown possibilities waiting for you; you can only pluck up the courage to start again, because you always have to break through this dilemma, and hope not to find yourself.

It is worth mentioning that the linkage between this experiment inside and outside the program is also like a transformation of perspective and position: netizens who participate remotely make their own choices that are appropriate in the case of fragmented information without knowing the whole picture, and determine the bittersweet and bittersweet of the members of the "Five Ha", so we are not only responsible for our own life choices, but also more cautious about the choices related to others, even if they are small?

This creative vision and content status is not only this issue, but also an overall appearance of the second season of "Hahahaha". Compared with the road trip of the first season of the program "open blind box", focusing on the relatively casual exploration and discovery in the journey, this season's program is more focused on the pre-thinking of the theme value, focusing on the attention to humanistic topics and social hot spots, and more deeply integrating the theme and entertainment, so that the audience can re-taste after laughing.

For example, similar to the extreme setting of the fifth period of "life choice", the brain hole of the fourth program is also very large and "absurd", and the program takes the problem of "net red attraction deception" that has caused great social repercussions earlier as the thinking point, extracts many thunder points in the reality of the black heart tourism phenomenon, and designs a series of content links of the entire program in an exaggerated way, and the members of the "Five Ha" have experienced the "blackest heart" instead of the public. Among them, such as "throw away the suitcase", "dig your own pit and jump", "artificial shower head" and other links have typical irony, full of realistic familiar taste, and under the action of the funny souls and strange tricks of the members, they are full of laughter, which is impressive after the fun.

And look further ahead: in the context of the current society to regain its confidence and love for traditional culture, "Wuha" created the theme content around ancient poetry, taking people to re-feel the meaning of poetry and the feelings of ancient literati; in the context of this year's national aerospace year, "Wuha" is also in the Long March 2F Yao 12 carrier rocket to transport Shenzhou 12 manned spacecraft to the space station at the time node, planning in advance, offering a "brief history of mankind", In various imaginations, it takes the audience from the primitive era to the space age.

As we all know, the first season of "Hahahaha" came into being in the context of the social restart after the long-term closure and suspension in 2020, hoping to take people outdoors, approach the revived society, and rekindle the enthusiasm for life with optimism. Then when it comes to the second season, it is also further looking for its own long-term positioning and the innovative vitality that supports the continuous output of content. Taking social hotspots as the traction and humanistic care as the shining point, on this basis, the full integration of urban style, folk life, game vitality, comedy, drama and other elements is the exploration path being practiced this season.

"Wuha" insists on walking, and existence is meaning

As mentioned earlier, always maintain the courage to start again, which is the topic that the fifth program wants to talk about; in fact, the existence of this season of "Wuha" is itself a kind of self-transformation.

The success of the first season has the vigor and special significance carried by the program team, as well as the addition of special world and social emotions. The second season of the show does not repeat their own stories, to start again, to find their own renewal value, to find their own existence in the society that continues to restore normalization, so they made the current content vision choice, trying to open up a larger pattern for travel life content.

On the other hand, this year's environment, for a program that wants to travel in all directions, the difficulty and challenges are always there, and it is still full of uncertainty. In this context, the "five ha" is still doing, still providing laughter and encouragement, still insisting on practical walking, and facing difficulties, which is also a rare courage.

Especially in the past two years, when "virtual", "cloud" and "meta" are more deeply immersed in social life, the actual footsteps are measured and the solid walking feeling is highlighted.

In the actual walk of the second season, "Wuha" helped people continue to open up new horizons, such as walking into Hanzhong to talk about the origin of Han culture, and also put countless people from childhood to adulthood "Tangerine Huainan is orange, tangerine Huaibei is orange", falling into the real local landscape, excavating the cultural charm and huge citrus industry strength hidden in the local city of Han; for example, the program went to Jinchang, Gansu, so that more people discovered the strange "Mars" appearance in western China, and once again felt the surprise possibility to be discovered in the vast territory.

Through walking, "Wuha" is still going deep into life and contacting the most ordinary people everywhere, and what is harvested in play and hearing is the corner and spiritual outlook of ordinary people's lives this year. For example, they went to Xi'an, followed several groups of craftsmen who made noodles in small street shops, learned their crafts, watched their dedication and dedication and the spirit of craftsmen who worked hard in small businesses, and also felt their five tastes and miscellaneous things about inheritance and perseverance. Through these small shops, they further contact more small diners, office workers, delivery workers, students, taxi drivers, convenience store clerks, and the elderly who collect waste, and feel their not too big but very moving life stories.

Although in the drastic changes in one or two years, all ordinary people have encountered inconsistency difficulties, but what can be connected is the tenacity of the Chinese people, is the spiritual outlook of encouraging each other to continue to move forward, so in walking and contact, the "five ha" taken from the people and output to the people is a steady stream of powerful life power, is this not the original meaning of the existence of the "five ha"?

In the external uncertainty, "Wuha" exists in a very strained creative state, flexibly adjusting the content design according to changes; and, in the case that the single period of the current variety show has generally reached 1 and a half to 2 hours, instead of promoting the "medium variety show" mode in this season, the length of the single film is basically controlled at 50 minutes to 1 small time, with this moderate length of time, to maintain the controllability and integrity of the narrative in an uncontrollable environment.

All these courage and attempts are actually in line with the goal of this season's "Five Ha" - "five tastes of life, haha to right", sweet and sour, bitter and spicy are worth it, and any challenge is calmly dealt with.
