20 international talents tour Chengdu Eat three cannons and invite tourists to take a group photo together

"Red face!" "Blackface!" "Blue Face!" "Whiteface!" ...... In the Dragon Hall Theater, various languages were mixed together, guessing the next change of the face-changing master. 20 international talents from all over the world sat cross-legged and watched Chengdu's unique face-changing masters approaching, displaying their skills face-to-face and exclaiming from time to time.

Yesterday, the large-scale original outdoor live reality show "Chengdu Life of International Talents" came to Kuanzhai Alley to record the third program. Only 20 international talents were eliminated through two rounds of games, and in the new round of competition, they watched Sichuan opera, pinched sugar people, plucked their ears, and experienced the original taste of Chengdu folk customs.

Come to Chengdu to ride a shared bicycle

Invite enthusiastic Chengdu people into the camera

"Let's say hello and let everyone hear the enthusiasm from Chengdu." Assad from Pakistan is a live broadcast master, and when eating the "Three Cannons", he did not forget to hold up his mobile phone to introduce Chengdu snacks to fans, and also invited curious passers-by to appear on camera. Assad told reporters that in Chengdu to do live broadcasting, he does not have to worry about a person gushing endlessly, as long as the pedestrians on the road say "hello", someone will take the initiative to respond, "This friendly and warm atmosphere is very different from what I have encountered in other cities." ”

Despite having to complete the game's quests in a limited amount of time, Assad is constantly being held back by the food in the wide and narrow alleys. "I want to try that rabbit." Assad said excitedly, pointing to the roast rabbit hanging from the store. Tony, an American who accompanies him, is interested in teacups and chopsticks, "We learned a lot about Chengdu's culture in Chengdu, architecture, snacks, masked performances, everything is very new and interesting, amazing." ”

As an international student at Shanghai Jiao Tong University, Assad paid special attention to Chengdu's public transportation, and he chose to ride a shared bicycle to explore the city. "The night before, I rode with the navigation to Tianfu Square and Jinli, the weather is very comfortable, you can talk to people, you can also stop for a cup of coffee, this is my favorite experience in Chengdu."

Redefine the ancient streets

The wide and narrow alleys can be used as a cultural and creative base

Before recording the program, producer Ye Junjie had accompanied the program team to Chengdu for two months. How to show the history and traditions of Chengdu through reality shows? How to give cultural connotations to fashion variety shows? The program team has traveled all over Chengdu to find the right incision. When the wide and narrow alleys of Chengdu's cultural and creative business cards appeared in front of them, the program team found the answer.

"Using contemporary artistic vision to redefine ancient towns, ancient streets, and wide and narrow alleys has been successful throughout the country." Ye Junjie said that chengdu's wide and narrow alleys remind him of ancient towns such as Wuzhen and Xitang in Zhejiang, all of which are traditional buildings built from the perspective of cultural industries. In recent years, Wuzhen has gained new vitality by holding the World Internet Conference, and the wide and narrow alleys are also suitable for combining with variety shows to create a "small horizontal shop". He pointed out that the wide and narrow alleys are already the gathering place of Chengdu snacks, and there are also leisure tourism formats such as bars and folk performances, and the reception capacity is relatively mature, which can meet the recording of domestic and foreign variety shows. If there is a professional film and television company to do further cultural and creative integration, design a line or theme to string together all the cultural elements in the wide and narrow alleys, there will be great market potential. "What the program recording team wants is a service that can provide a very good recording reception, covering snacks, folk skills, leisure, and the new culture of Chengdu, which is both distinctive and very conducive to publicity."

Ye Junjie told reporters that the program team is from Zhejiang, but nearly half of the staff are from Taiwan. The multi-cultural integration team has a consistent impression of Chengdu, that is, "literature and art". "Chengdu has a very mass base in terms of art." Ye Junjie said that in the cafes and tea houses in Chengdu, it can be seen that each shopkeeper will integrate his love of science fiction or rock into the design of the storefront, forming a very personalized shop. "Hangzhou has the West Lake Music Festival and the International Animation Festival to integrate resources and develop the market, and I look forward to more international cultural festivals in Chengdu to play the role of starting the world."
