There is no handsome guy in the world who doesn't know it
Zhang Jun was eliminated.
After the recording that night, he went home and slept, because the show had not yet aired, and the bad news could only rot in his heart. When he got up the next day, he had to continue to wear the clothes he was eliminated, put on full makeup, and sit in the elimination room to watch others advance one by one.
This is a very sad story.
But don't forget, in the world of stand-up comedians, sadness, and even shame, can be transformed into wonderful passages.
Visitor inSight,
Zhang Jun is like such a talk show actor, the audience mentions his passages, always very impressed, but if you mention this person, you have to think about it for a while to have a shallow impression. He enjoys being noticed, but what he prefers to be remembered is his own passages. We talked to him about talk shows, his fame, and his status after the talk show was broadcast. #微信影视时刻 @WeChat Creator @WeChat Moment

A month later, when asked about the match, you can't find the slightest regret in his face, and you can even faintly detect a little excitement, after all, "it is rare to have the opportunity to play with two kings at the same time in this life", and he repeated "very happy" twice.
In his latest B-station video, he even used the former "scar" as the title "Talk show conference was eliminated by two kings".
Is there a chance of winning?
He thought for a moment and gave a very sincere answer: "Unless the two kings are suddenly dumb."

Desire to perform
"Zhang Jun is so hi today." The broker said.
Ignoring the three camera lights, two cameras and the interview synopsis, it was almost an open wheat scene.
The performances and strips appeared just right, and the staff on the scene not only completed the video shooting, but also had an extra job - trying to suppress the urge to clap their legs and laugh to ensure that their voices did not interfere with the radio.
The protagonist who makes the serious shooting atmosphere wander wildly on the edge of loss of control is naturally Zhang Jun.
Apparently, the fixed high stool and the exhortation to "try not to move" before shooting limited his performance.
This talk show actor, who is accustomed to moving the center of gravity of his left and right feet from time to time and expressing his emotions with gestures, can only mobilize his facial features, chin, neck, and even neck lines to vividly interpret the answer.
And, of course, there's the tone, "A small change in tone can express sarcasm," a conclusion he's come to after more than half a year of going over and over again about the famous comedian Bill Burr's special, You People Are All the Same.
Entering the interview, appearance became one of the topics of the chat, talking about how he realized that he was a "handsome guy". The answer is evaluation, he emphasizes, it is the evaluation of boys to boys, because girls are easy to praise each other.
When interpreting this paragraph, he uses the switching of expressions and tones to effectively distinguish between the two types of characters that appear in the answer.
The first type of role is a girl. His voice immediately became sharp and thin, "Ah! Sister, you are also too good-looking, oh yo, your eye makeup is too beautiful." He pinned his face to one side, looked down, didn't look at anyone, and an exaggerated smile appeared on his face. How to play? The last word was pressed low and exaggerated, and the expression instantly returned to normal.
The second category is boys. Switching to the "brother" state, his eyes widened and he even squeezed out four or five head wrinkles, echoing the four or five neck lines that were pressed out because of the contraction of the chin. The tone was muffled, and every word was stretched long: you want a guy to say to another guy — you're so handsome — it's hard, it's hard, it's hard.
"But a boy said it to me." It was himself. The tone is flat, the speed of speech is medium, and there are no superfluous expressions.
Performance appears naturally in the course of the conversation, and it is not appropriate to describe him as lively, cheerful, or interesting, which is the innate desire to perform.
At this time, the laughter that the crowd strives to suppress is the best nourishment for the desire to perform, and the passage also comes casually.
He used the Starbucks cup model to describe his relatives' evaluation of appearance, "only medium, large, oversized, it is not small, or poor." It's a thought, people need a little time to react, after saying that he paused for a few seconds, "No relative or friend has seen your child", he extended his index finger and pointed into the air, and then said, "Small".
The interpretation of the action made everyone understand the passage, and the crowd erupted into laughter. "Well, I'll write it down, and I can take it to talk about talk shows." An ingenious passage was born in the conversation.
The underlying professional inertia, which is more basic than funny, may be paying attention to the reactions of the people in the space all the time. If there are not so many people, such as two or three cameras, two or three journalists, two or three agents and colleagues in a room of tens of square meters, then his attention will cover everyone.
When he realized that his answer might be slightly inappropriate, Zhang Jun subconsciously looked at the agent's reaction. Unfortunately, there was a one-man-wide white pillar in the middle, and it was impossible to see. "I felt your gaze rush through this pillar toward me." The agent laughed, the crisis lifted, and the "show" continued.
In a shooting, the people in the lens should have deliberately ignored the existence of the lens and the camera - it is said that in order to present the picture as naturally as possible, some people will even deliberately not look in the direction of the camera when being filmed, naturally, the presence of the camera brother will be very low.
But on Zhang Jun's shooting scene, there will even be dialogue between the protagonist and the camera. The topic talked about men's neglect of dressing, "Mainly because many men don't dress up their own, which makes it better for me to occasionally dress up men like me." After saying that, he paused for a second, and immediately jumped out of the state of the interview to apologize to the camera brother, "I'm sorry, I forgot, I didn't say what you meant."
Being noticed by the people in the camera is obviously unexpected by the camera brother, he waved his hand at Zhang Jun, indicating that it was okay, and the shooting continued.
Two
talk show
If you've read a lot of stories about talk shows, you'll find a rule that for stand-up comedians, there's often something deeper behind the humor that inspires their expression.
The answer is often some kind of pain. In an interview with People, Liang Haiyuan said, "The great thing about talk shows is that it gives countless unsatisfactory people an outlet for emotions." This phrase applies to many stand-up comedians. Some people use funny to fight appearance anxiety, and some people rely on expression to accept their sensitivities, introversions and negative emotions.
When the question fell on Zhang Jun, the answer was very simple: "I like to pay attention, I like everyone's attention" - the goal is very clear, and there are many ways to try. It is just the other side of the road leading to Rome, but it is the confusion that hovers in front of the choice.
Zhang Jun wanted to be an actor, "but I am not from a science class, and my acting skills are not good", this road does not work. When he was an undergraduate, he also worked as a model for a period of time, and there were many objective obstacles, "their facial features are very distinctive", "my face looks like I count seven heads", plus the model is a real youth meal, anxiety and pressure will gradually emerge with age, or inappropriate.
The advantages in appearance are not so prominent. To say other advantages, "I think I'm funny", when chatting with friends, Zhang Jun often teases them "forward and backward" and "gagale". But it was hard for him to figure out what kind of end humor could help him get to, and at the time, even talk shows were a very niche presence.
The person who completely helped him break through the fog and pointed out the direction was Zhou Qimo. More precisely, it is a performance by Zhou Qimo.
Zhang Jun retweeted the talk show actor Tong Monan's praise for Zhou Qimo's Weibo
Zhang Jun lowered his voice, imitating the most impressive performance of Zhou Qimo, "He said that his father learned to go to Tmall, and he put the glasses down, forehead... That one...... Don't talk." At that time, he "didn't know what a talk show was", let alone the technique and the structure of the paragraph, but "he was very funny, imitating it very much".
After watching the second week, Zhang Jun reported an open wheat and went on stage to say, "I don't know what I'm talking about, I also doubt life, and the audience also doubts life." After three or four months, he tried again, but it still couldn't work, and "there was no effect after the lecture."
The story about talk shows is basically suspended here. Because he started school. At that time, he was still a college student studying communication engineering, and classes, exams, grades, and papers were the worries that ordinary college students should be anxious about.
As for talk shows, of course, they were shelved first. The only implication is that he often writes down the inspiration of the passage in the memo on his mobile phone, such as on the way back to the dormitory in college, there are many couples who are greasy and crooked, and he describes himself as "like a rain of bullets" and "their voices are on the door of my head".
For two years, he never stopped recording inspiration, "Because Boss Zhou acted so well, you see him act like this, and you think, wow, I want to be like this." 」
When Zhang Jun was talking about talk shows in Guangzhou, he used his own name to tell a paragraph
The turning point of fate came in 2019, the application for studying abroad failed, and Zhang Jun began his own gap year.
During that time, he rented a house in Guangzhou with the financial support of his parents, and while doing scientific research, he finally had the opportunity to secretly talk about talk shows.
Why stealth? "Because if you don't have money, don't do all the other messy things, but then you started to try it." 」 He usually gets up at eight o'clock in the morning, stays in the laboratory until seven or eight o'clock in the evening, and then rushes to talk about open wheat, and usually comes home at 11 o'clock at night.
When preparation time is limited, he will "mutter" on the road, "it is strange for you to talk when there is no one around", in order to disguise, he often wears Bluetooth headphones. After the steady opening of wheat, outside of scientific research, it will be used to write paragraphs, and write every day, "writing well is also practice, and writing badly is also practice."
Waking up early and returning late is painful. But the good news is that talking about talk shows "I don't know why I opened up, suddenly I was a lot more funny, and the audience reacted a lot better." He could clearly sense the audience laughing at the stem he designed, and "the response was very fitting."

Little famous
After the program was broadcast, Zhang Jun's life changed a little. He was recognized more often on the street, but few people could call out his name, and more often he was stopped, looked at each other, and then both fell into embarrassment - "Are you the one... That one...... Right?" He will respond politely, but I am afraid that even the person concerned does not know what code is right.
He was also asked to sign, but he often refused, "because the words are so ugly."
Some relatives watched the show and said, "The first round was really good, the second round was a bit of a pity." But this is almost all the evaluation from the loved ones, without further exploration. My mother did mention that "their classmates exploded", and did not say more, "I don't know who blew it up".
My parents have not seen Zhang Jun's talk show scene until now. Before his father came to Guangzhou to play, zhang Jun just started talking about talk shows, asked him if he wanted to come and see, and got the reply that "I don't dare", "forget it" and "no need". Zhang Jun joked that he was not going to carry out a terrorist attack, "it felt like I was forcing him to watch."
Zhang Jun thought about it, and this description seemed to be not very good for the image of his father, and added, "It's not that we don't have a good relationship, we are still very familiar, because he is my father." If there is open wheat in his hometown on National Day, he will still invite his parents to come to the scene to see.
The reaction of friends was the most violent. Old classmates who have not been in contact for many years, with a thin impression, turned out Zhang Jun from the friend list, clicked on the circle of friends, and have not been updated for a long time. It's not that he was blocked, it's just that he closed the circle of friends two years ago.
I didn't expect to see him again in the variety show, "Wow, you're on this?" "You're on Talk Show?" "Is this you?" Chats often start like this, followed by the most common greeting, "How did you end up like this?" "The light has gone away in the past two years, hasn't it?"
Zhang Jun feels that this paragraph is very similar to shen Teng's experience in "Shy Iron Fist", and he appears in the vision of his friends with a "light luxury version of Xu Zhisheng" hairstyle, which has a resonation with Shen Teng, a martial arts master who fell from the sky and finally knelt on the ground in the movie. "I rarely get back into their sights." He laughed at himself.
He carried out the spirit of "reflective and bright" very thoroughly, and even corrected his "star" title. "We're just a little bit of a celebrity, and that fame will soon fade away, and after the show is over, people won't remember you anymore."
As for what the audience cares about? Only the works, like the benefits of fame, are difficult to cover to the open wheat scene. "No matter how big you are, if you don't speak well, it will be cold." The audience doesn't force themselves to laugh." But that's also the charm of talk shows.
He talked about an open wheat a few days ago.
At that time, the program had already been broadcast, and the topic #Zhang Jun There was no handsome guy who didn't know it#, and it was also on the Weibo warm-up list. The audience was very much looking forward to hearing the name, "Yay! Zhang Jun!" Zhang Jun lengthened his tone to describe the audience's enthusiasm for him. It is almost conceivable that, accompanied by applause and cheers from the audience, his gorgeous debut.
As a result, a paragraph was thrown, and the audience did not react. Another one, still no response.
Unfortunately, the humor channel connection failed, and Zhang Jun was cold.
Although when he mentioned this paragraph, he looked annoyed and sighed "Oh my God", and did not want to recall the scene at that time. But when imitating, he still learned the audience's dazed expressions very well, and even made up their inner activities: "What is he doing?" What is he doing? After talking a bunch, (I don't know) what is he doing?"
Truth be told, "cold scenes are normal" and embarrassment will soon pass. The unexpected rollover is in line with what is often said in talk shows about "expected violations". Maybe before long, this is another wonderful new paragraph.
