Preface
They came, they went, they came, they went again. They are the frequently changing hostesses in the CCTV variety channel "Departure to Happiness". They are beside Yang Fan, like the waves on the lake, rippling in circles, without a foundation.
Yang Fan sat there quietly, letting their replacement happen. Why is this going on? What is Yang Fan thinking? We have to go deep into the root cause of this problem.
One
In the hopeful spring, "Departure to Happiness" came into being. This program, which builds a blind date platform for urban youth, was highly anticipated at the beginning. Yang Fan at that time may also be a member of the audience.
Sitting in front of the TV, sweating for the men and women who participated in the blind date, I was also worried about whether I could find true love. He watched the host talk there, engaged and passionate, and imagined that one day he could become such a good host.
At that time, "Departure to Happiness" was at its peak, and the host and audience were very stable. The show has a good effect and a good reputation, and every single young person dreams of finding his other half here.
However, the good times did not last long, and six years later, for various reasons, "Departure to Happiness" began to face the dilemma of declining ratings. The program team began to frequently revise and replace the hosts, and explored various ways to increase the ratings, but the ratings still failed to reverse.
Once such a brilliant show, now it can only be sustained by trial and error. At this time, Yang Fan was still trying to become an excellent host. He struggled in many variety shows, hoping to become the existence that made the audience's eyes shine.
He watched the twists and turns of "Departure to Happiness", and he also wanted to do something for this show he once loved. Finally, the opportunity came. In that crisp autumn September, Yang Fan became the host of "Departure to Happiness" as he wished.
Maybe he can give the show new possibilities, or at least keep its crumbling foundation alive.
Two
That issue of "Departure to Happiness" was partnered with the crown. Yang Fan still remembered that the crown smiled a little shyly, and the two of them were a little restrained. In fact, Yang Fan was also very nervous in his heart - he had been waiting for this moment for too long, like a freshman who was a show host.
He tries to make himself look natural and calm, and to build a rapport with his new partner. The crown man is good, but the combination always lacks a spark of shortcomings. Yang Fan thought it might take some time to get used to it. However, the crown didn't give them much time to grind.
After only hosting a few episodes, she turned to a new position, and "Departure to Happiness" ushered in a new partner, Sister Moon. Sister Moon is gentle and generous, and it is easy to get close to.
Yang Fan felt very comfortable when he worked with her for the first time, and the two quickly found a rhythm. In the later dubbing intervals, they will also chat a few words, and Yang Fan found that she is very in tune with his own thinking.
Yang Fan and her cooperated well, and the two became the finishing touch of the show. Yang Fan even expects Sister Moon to partner for a long time, even if it is three or five years, a stable partner relationship will give the audience more attachment. However, this is only an extravagant fantasy.
One day after the end of the Shenyang special, Sister Moon suddenly said goodbye to Yang Fan and turned around and never came back. Yang Fan was very disappointed. He has become accustomed to getting along with Sister Moon, and the tacit understanding established between the two cannot be reproduced overnight.
Unexpectedly, she still left, leaving Yang Fan alone to face the upcoming new partners. He felt uncertain about his future, like a man in a boat in the middle of a huge wave.
Three
In my memory, the Luoyang special was recorded with Miaomiao. Miao Miao also has her own cuteness, she is lively and enthusiastic, bringing some youthful vitality to the show. But unlike Sister Moon, Miaomiao lacks experience and handles many details handily.
Yang Fan did his best to accommodate her so that she could get on the road as soon as possible. It's a pity that the cooperation between the two only lasted for a few Luoyang sessions, and Miaomiao seemed to have got a new opportunity and turned around and left "Departure to Happiness".
Later, Wang Cong and Liu Xuan came...... As netizens said, Yang Fan is "the iron-beaten Yang Fan, the partner of flowing water". The new partners are one after another, making it difficult for Yang Fan to adapt.
Every time he had just figured out the personality traits of a certain girl, explored their strengths and weaknesses, and wanted to continue to learn more, they left in a hurry. The relationship between Yang Fan and them is like a thin layer of paper, which is immediately shattered when you pinch it gently.
The run-in period didn't need to be too long at all, and by the time Yang Fan finally found the rhythm to work with his new partner, they had already disappeared.
Yang Fan couldn't help but sigh, he was like a veteran instructor who always taught the recruits, the students changed batch after batch, and only he always stood in place.
Four
Frequent host changes seem to be common on CCTV variety channels. It's not that Yang Fan is unlucky, but the entire host group is facing the problem of upgrading. Yang Fan remembered the brilliant Zhang Lei, Li Sisi, and Venina.
They have led more female hosts into everyone's field of vision and pushed CCTV variety shows to a peak. But now they have long since turned the door, and the CCTV hosting circle can no longer feel their demeanor.
The new female hosts have talents and hard work, and they also want to enter people's field of vision and become the benchmark of the new generation. But after all, they can't bear the aura of their predecessors, they come in a hurry, and they go in a hurry.
Yang Fan watched them pass in front of him in a blink of an eye, and couldn't help but sigh at how fast time passed. In this way, the host group is constantly losing and updating, and repeatedly jumping sideways. It is also difficult for the program to form a sense of character and dependence.
Not only "Departure to Happiness", but another program "Golden 100 Seconds" hosted by Yang Fan is also facing the same dilemma. The hostesses there are like temporary workers, coming and going, and Yang Fan can't even remember their names.
They hurried past and disappeared in front of Yang Fan. Such a combination is destined to be difficult to go long. So the question is: Is the program producer arranging too hastily, or does the host himself not have the strength and determination? Yang Fan also does not know.
He was just trapped in this strange circle, watching the "partners" take turns to leave him. In fact, Yang Fan was also very anxious. He feared that one day he would be ruthlessly abandoned and lose his qualification to gain a foothold in this circle.
Five
Frequent changes of hosts are detrimental to the development of the program. This can affect the attachment of viewers, which ultimately leads to a drop in ratings. Yang Fan knows this truth very well. He imagined several times in the middle of the night that it would be nice if Sister Moon could come back.
After all, they have established a certain interaction mode and tacit understanding between them, and they can cooperate naturally and smoothly in the show. Even if Wang Cong and Miaomiao come back again. They all tried their best, but the time was too short for them to really be established.
However, they are all gone, and the hostess of "Departure to Happiness" will never look back. The new partner frequently entered Yang Fan's world and left in a hurry. This made Yang Fan feel very powerless.
He has been trying to adapt to their style, connect with them, and hope that they will also adapt to the atmosphere of the show as soon as possible. But this process is like spinning in place, he and his new partner are running-in, but time has not given them too many opportunities to run-in.
They left in a hurry, and Yang Fan needed to re-run into a new partner. It doesn't help with audience retention either. Maybe "Departure to Happiness" will be like this until it is shut down, Yang Fan began to think desperately.
The hostess is always changing, he may always be repeating the run-in process, occasionally flashing a little valuable spark, but in the end it is difficult to last. He and his partners are like a small boat paddling across the water, although they meet, they can't go too far side by side.
However, Yang Fan faintly holds hope: maybe my show "The More You War" can survive. I was the only one there. At least there, I don't have to worry about changing new partners so often. It's going to be where I really stand on my feet.
epilogue
In fact, Yang Fan is not completely desperate for this matter. He is still young and still self-motivated. Sister Moon is gone, but spring will come again. There are many newcomers, and there may be a partner who is more compatible with him.
A new host will come, probably even better than Sister Moon. If she can be by Yang Fan's side for a long time, no matter how many issues or years, the audience may gradually accept her. Who can really soak in the big dye vat of "Departure to Happiness" for too long?
Everyone comes and goes, that's the rule of the TV world. Yang Fan did not give up his vision for the future. The shift is in the next second. He's still young and strong enough to welcome new partners. He believes in his luck and strength.
In the future, he will definitely stand here with a perfect partner for a long time, and "Departure to Happiness" will surely regain its glory and win the hearts of the audience again! That day is not too far away.
