The host has been in the industry for 16 years, and she ruined her career because she called the wrong person, is she wronged?

Zhu Dan recently appeared on a variety show, and broke down and cried many times because of the host's slip of the tongue incident that called the wrong name 5 years ago.

She said that this incident is still a demon in her heart, and she never thought that her career would one day end because of the wrong name.

In the show, she hosted a local small party, and praised her from all aspects such as hosting status and rhythm for the first time in the Monday Wai, just to "whitewash" her hosting ability.

It's a pity that the public doesn't buy it.

In fact, not only Zhu Dan, but also the once smash hit Zhejiang and Jiangsu hosts, such as Hua Shao, Meng Fei, Le Jia, etc., have been "late in the past" in recent years. Zuo Yan, Li Hao, Li Xiang, and Peng Yu, who are less famous, don't even have this person.

Is it just a coincidence that Zhejiang and Jiangsu presided over the overturn? In Piao's view, this is completely a closed microphone that will eventually come.

In addition to Hunan TV, the other three seats of the four domestic Davids TV happened to be surrounded by Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Shanghai, and each of the latter regarded the former as their only rival.

In 1997, "Happy Camp" was launched and became a landmark entertainment program of Hunan TV.

After 2000, local stations entered a savage growth period of competition for ratings. Other satellite TV benchmarks Hunan Satellite TV, aiming at "entertainment", and is also sharpening their heads to develop popular programs at the same time.

Focusing on games, Zhejiang Satellite TV has launched programs such as "Cool Food in the World", "Rushing to the Best", "The More You Jump, the More Beautiful I Become", "I Am the Grand Judge" and other programs from different dimensions of food, dance, and competition, focusing on a focus that surrounds the audience's attention from all aspects of the audience's eating, drinking, and playing.

In terms of hosting, he also successively "introduced" good seedlings from Hunan Taiwan. Like Li Hao, Li Xiang, and Peng Yu, they were all the new generation hosts of Hunan Satellite TV, and were later dug up to Zhejiang and Jiangsu Satellite TV.

In addition to being a professional host, he also recruited some entertaining people to join the show, such as Yang Di, who debuted not long ago.

Yang Di hosted "Cool Food in the World" in his early years, and he was often taken by Hua Shao, a brother in Zhejiang, and he can be regarded as his host enlightenment teacher.

The first masterpiece certified by Yang Di Weibo is still "Cool Food in the World"

In addition to poaching people and foreign aid, cultivating their own hosts is also one of the channels.

And Shen Tao, who has been familiar to everyone through "Ace vs. Ace" in recent years, was the chubby boy who hosted "Chongguan My Best".

Among them, Taili is the most optimistic about game variety shows based on guessing songs.

Two music variety shows were arranged during the golden period on Friday and Sunday this week, "I Love to Remember Lyrics" and "Love to Sing to Win".

At that time, it was very common to compete to clone popular foreign programs, but it had not yet borrowed from the super-explosive localized programs.

On September 30, 2007, "I Love to Remember Lyrics" was officially launched.

At this time, it has been 11 years since the first national variety show "Kuaiben" was launched, and no one expected that "I Love to Remember Lyrics", a song guessing variety show cloned from the American FOX program "Singing Little Bee", would become a new generation of popular variety shows, and became popular Zhu Dan and Hua Shao.

The atmosphere of the variety show that year emphasized "national participation", and "I Love to Remember Lyrics", as a music competition with the lowest threshold in the country, happened to step on the audience's pain points.

To what extent?

It has set a record of 1.103% average viewership, which is equivalent to one in every 100 viewers in the country watching this show.

In addition to watching in front of the TV, everyone was also taken by the show to sing K offline, similar to the trend of "Star Detective" driving the offline national secret room and script killing trend in previous years.

is also like later, various stations also competed to produce a lot of puzzle-solving variety shows, and other TV stations also competed to produce a lot of music variety shows back then.

For example, Hunan TV's "Challenge the Microphone", Jiangsu TV's "King of K Song", Shandong Satellite TV's "First Voice", etc.

But none of them can catch up with the originator "I Love to Remember Lyrics", and it has also been commended by the State Administration of Radio, Film and Television, and was rated as a national innovation and excellence typical program in 2008.

In September 2009, "I Love to Remember Lyrics" struck while the iron was hot and launched the "National Leading Singing Super Competition", which was broadcast live to enhance the sense of interaction, and the studio often had singing and laughing in the early morning.

The amateur singers even have a fan effect, and the station has even held a concert for them.

Seeing that the singing variety show couldn't do Zhejiang TV, Jiangsu TV aimed its anchor at another track: blind date.

They focused on more than a dozen different forms of dating programs at home and abroad, mainly drawing on the blind date variety "Take Me Out", which exploded in the UK's 2009 trial broadcast.

On January 15, 2010, Jiangsu TV launched "If You Are Honest, Do Not Disturb", and no one could have predicted that this program became popular with Meng Fei and Le Jia.

Compared with traditional TV programs, although the new variety shows in the 2000s era are "wild", they have fully entered the era of "gradual entertainment".

Therefore, you will find that the hosts of this period have gradually transitioned from the pure functionality of simple curtain calls in traditional programs to more entertaining personalization.

The hosts who exploded during this period all have clear entertainment labels:

For example, when you mention Hua Shao, you will think that Zhu Dan is not handsome but talented, and when you mention Zhu Dan, intellectual and funny + chocolate beauty.

Meng Fei = crooked mouth + bald head; Le Jia = another bald head + poisonous tongue...

The TV station is also committed to building the star image of its own host, which further amplifies the entertainment label of the host.

For example, spending huge sums of money to package its image, acting, and singing for it, and letting it take over all the radio programs to increase exposure, all in order to plant the host's entertainment label to the audience's mind.

Therefore, they were popular back then, not because of how professional and outstanding they were.

They are a group of people who were selected by the TV variety show "Gradually Entertainment Era".

The times pay more attention to their personal labels, and there is a great tolerance for their lack of professionalism.

The fame of this group of hosts almost all came in pairs:

Hua Shao, Zhu Dan;

Meng Fei, Le Jia.

And they are all deeply bound to a certain program.

Because they are popular, they don't stand out by absolute popularity.

It is a chemical reaction that collides after constantly arranging and combining new elements in the savage growth period when TV stations compete for ratings, making explosive models for the sake of so-called innovation.

In a sense, the luck of coincidence is more than the host's own subjective initiative and hard core strength.

When Zhu Dan pronounced the wrong person's name, in addition to the mistake itself, he was also complained by many people, why did a good mainland host speak in a Hong Kong and Taiwan accent.

Although Hua Shao was later called "China's good tongue" because of his quick mouth reading advertisement in "The Voice", he, like Zhu Dan, was criticized for his serious Hong Kong and Taiwan accents.

Some words are flat-tongued and tongue-indistinguishable, such as the "cheng" for "complete" is pronounced as "ceng". It can be seen that although both of them are from related majors, they have problems with their basic hosting skills.

And one of the reasons why these two people have overturned in recent years is caused by their high and low emotional intelligence.

For hosts who need to control the scene, the sensitivity of reading the air should be higher than that of ordinary people, but their performance in this area is erratic.

For example, the reason why Zhu Dan and Zhou Yiwei's marriage is not optimistic is that Zhu Dan has a lot of responsibility. She always inadvertently releases too many details of Zhou Zhouwei's life that are not very pleasing.

For example, the staircase theory, the scene where her husband with children has never been seen in her family, etc...

So netizens said that Zhu Dan was the senior black of Zhou Yiwei. But the essence is that Zhu Dan, as the host, can't control the emotions of the public and is incompetent in understanding social psychology.

She once wrote a small essay in response to her marital controversy, and between the choice of words and sentences, emotions > rationality + skills, and it is hard to imagine that she is a linguist.

And Hua Shao repeatedly asked Tang Yan about her income, flaunting her wealth during the interview to anger Zhang Jiahui, and introducing Zhu Dan to her single father, all of which caused controversy because of exposing her emotional intelligence depression.

Meng Fei and Le Jia are even wilder, neither of them is from the host class, and they are also controversial.

Meng Fei worked as a cameraman in his early years, and then gradually turned to a reporter and director. Le Jia majored in foreign trade and later became a sales training instructor at Avon.

Meng Fei is good at dissecting social problems coldly, but he is not entertaining enough. And Lejia is only eloquent, his character is suspicious, and his star journey is destined to not be long-term.

But at that time, whether it was Hua Shao Zhu Dan or Meng Fei Lejia, although they were not professional, they were lucky to have an indispensable chemical reaction with their partners and their shows in the combination arrangement.

Hua Shao and Zhu Dan are both fast-talking people, so the overall hosting rhythm is brisk and attracts young people, and they also quarreled until the recording was stopped during the show, but they love to quarrel in the show, which adds a sense of fun and intimacy.

These two points are just in line with the temperament of the low-threshold national singing variety show.

And their personal traits or experiences are also very consistent with the attributes of the show.

Zhu Dan's skin is dark and tall, and his appearance is special in the aesthetics of the time.

Coupled with the public impression and signature smile of the intellectual host in the early years, Zhu Dan's presence shocked the audience, making the singing variety show with a very light body less impetuous, and more calm.

And Hua Shao worked as a DJ in his early years, as a small Chinese song library, it is not too suitable to host such a show. Many times, his genuine sense of participation is very contagious to the audience.

Look at Meng Fei Lejia again.

Meng Fei endured hardships in his early years, worked as a porter, water delivery worker, security guard, and printer, and had insight into society. So it developed a unique, critical cold humor.

As a blind date show with all cows, ghosts, snakes and gods, Meng Fei is in it and has a sense of miracle of independence in the world.

Partner Le Jia's "catching horses" amplifies Meng Fei's valuable qualities.

For example, Le Jia loves to open his yellow tongue and often has a narcissistic posture.

The female guest parted with a polite hug. Le Jia insisted on forcing him to say the difference between hugging himself and Meng Fei, with a hint of sexuality, which embarrassed the female guests, so she could only play sloppy "You know" and hurriedly end the game.

Meng Fei stood on the stage coldly, his head twisted to reveal his signature deflated mouth.

The contrast between movement and stillness, unreasonableness and powerlessness makes the show both dramatic and balanced.

But the fit is a coincidence, not a copy.

They exploded back then, and they became famous in the wild era.

Now, wild roads have become its fatal flaw.

Their ability to compound is weak.

Some can't match their psychological tolerance and fame, such as Zhu Dan.

In addition to Zhu Dan's hard power as mentioned above, Zhu Dan also lacks psychological quality as the host's soft power.

Zhu Dan lost his father at the age of 7, his family was miserable, and he lived to make his mother happy since he was a child, including being a host, so he did not have such a profound spontaneous pursuit of the profession of hosting from the source, and he had no love for hosting at all in his early years.

But Zhejiang Satellite TV was making every effort to build the Chinese blue brand at that time, and it also joined hands with Huayi, which was in full swing. As a TV station, Zhu Dan was pushed onto the stage and became popular with the trend.

Produced by Huayi, Zhu Dan as the heroine's "Falling in Love with a Female Anchor"

Not only has his career progressed by leaps and bounds, but he also has more choices emotionally.

After the divorce, she had an affair with Tao Zhe, and then fell in love with Song Ke, the owner of the wheat field.

Until 2019:

It was rumored on the Internet that there were many disputes in Taichung that year, and Zhu Dan's car parked in the unit would be scratched for no reason, and he was squeezed out by the smash hit Shanghai Qingkou Zhou Libo.

In the end, newcomer Yi Yi replaced Zhu Dan's position in "I Love to Remember Lyrics", and the following year, Song Ke broke up with her, turned around and got married and had a daughter.

She confessed that there was a psychological problem at that time.

In 2012, she joined Mango and was known as the second sister of Mango (the first sister is Xie Na). However, in "China's Strongest Voice", the phone number of Mango Station was pronounced as the old club, and it was suspected that he was "dismissed" by Mango because of this.

But what is extremely scary is that it is rumored on the Internet that the show is recorded and broadcast. If it is true, Zhu Dan not only lost on his own slip of the tongue, but also lost in the sinister conflict of interests in the rivers and lakes.

After that, she got married and had children and retired to the rivers and lakes, pinning her heart on Zhou Zhouwei, and did not ask about the affairs of the rivers and lakes at all.

does not have the psychological state to face the controversy, so she chose to hide.

This evasive idleness also made her not even hear the names of several popular artists many years later, which led to mispronunciation, and made mistakes again and again on multiple stages and programs in a short period of time.

Just like she is still crying for her slip of the tongue 5 years ago, there is a significant gap between Zhu Dan's psychological endurance and the title hosted by the star.

And what about Hua Shao? Indeed, as he first saw it, he has brains, and his ability to control the field is his most conspicuous advantage. But he is a businessman whose interests are paramount.

He said in his early years that he didn't have any journalistic ideals, and he cared more about whether his program could be sold and what price it would sell.

Many years later, with the fermentation of the Gao Yixiang incident and the injustice suffered by Coco Li in "The Voice", everyone noticed that Hua Shaochang, who was good at controlling the scene but often stood on the side of Taiwan's interests, chose to remain silent, which completely chilled the audience's hearts.

And Let's not discuss Le Jia, a crazy and excessive narcissist, and finally talk about Meng Fei.

Meng Fei has great limitations, and can only serve a single scene to be brilliant.

In 2022, Meng Fei replaced He Jiong as the host of the third season of "Heartwarming Offer", but he was sprayed by netizens as inferior to He Jiong, and even as good as the singer and guest Zhou Shen in the show.

So much so that Meng Fei withdrew from the show after only hosting four episodes.

Meng Fei's cold feeling in control of the field is a much-needed cooling agent in a blind date show like a vegetable market, but in another scene, he seems alienated and cold, and has no role in gluing the theme of the show.

That season was a medical student theme, and he crossed his waist and made auxiliary gestures while observing and commenting on medical students. If you don't read the subtitles, it looks like a leader speaking in a large meeting.

For people who have different channels and life experiences that do not intersect with him, Meng Fei is not very able to perceive their life pain points.

There is an excellent medical student in the show who has strong academic attainments, and has become a poor student who knows nothing in clinical practice.

Meng Fei didn't understand the anxiety of this intern who was almost breaking down at that time, and even asked:

Is she in a daze?

Meng Fei's cross-industry perception is poor and his acuity is low, and the advantages of "If You Are Honest, Do Not Disturb" go to other fields, and under the comparison of He Jiong, the shortcomings are exposed 360°.

In line with the positive example of strong professional ability, you can compare Sa Beining, who has been praised many times, and his compound ability is very strong.

In addition to professional skills, orthodox or funny can come to any scene, has news ideals, and has a stable core, which constitutes his image of a professional host who is not easy to overturn.

On variety shows and the Spring Festival Gala, the state is completely different

But in the wild era when the host transitioned from professional to entertaining, they were a smash hit before, and there is no doubt that they can't do it.

Today's so-called overturn is just a lack of professional ability that was covered by the dividends of the times, and now it is exposed.

Looking at the lack of success of the former rival Hunan TV, the decline of the neighbor Dongfang TV after the "birthday banquet" turmoil, and the degradation of the hosts of the four major stations, it reflects the crisis of the domestic TV ecology.

In the final analysis, hosting is not only a skill, but also one of the most human and soul-testing jobs in the entertainment industry. Over the years, almost all of the hosts who can stay and gain respect are people whose conduct is recognized. On the contrary, most people are not eliminated because of ability problems at all, but lose because of human weakness.

Again:

The key on the stage is not only "hosting", but also "people".
