The historical position and social significance of talk shows in American TV programs are irreplaceable, and in November last year, in order to promote the women/audience market of the alliance, Lu Ke participated in the recording of the "Tonight Show" and completed his talk show debut; And this time, he will participate in the live broadcast of another top popular talk show.

Yes, live.

"Saturday-Night-Live", the name of the program is simple and straightforward - the talk show broadcast live in the middle of the night on Saturday night, spliced together is the current name of the program, this program produced and broadcast by NBC TV, since its inception in 1975, has been watched Changhong and the topic has continued, becoming one of the longest-lived programs in the history of American television, and it is still very popular and enduring.

The biggest feature of this talk show is that it combines the hottest topics of the moment and uses spoof sketches to pinpoint current affairs, and at the same time, it can also be seen as a mirror of pop culture, mocking fast food culture, entertainment to death and other phenomena. Of course, because the broadcast time of the show is already late at night, the scale will be relatively large, and the spoof jokes are never lacking in topics and heat.

Each episode of Saturday Night Live will feature a guest performer and a musical guest, and the two will work together.

The performers are often the top popular superstars of the moment, after all, there are only 24 to 26 episodes of a season of the show, and the quality of the guests needs to be well checked, and there is even a "five-time hosting club" in Hollywood, which specifically refers to being able to be the host of "Saturday Night Live" five times, which is an important affirmation, and Justin Timberlake is a member of the club.

The performers will participate in the performance of the sketch, and the audience can let people see the different sides of the guest, and the most important thing is to learn to laugh at themselves and blacken themselves, which is based on the basic ability of talk show; The music guests are usually popular singers who are in the promotion period and will perform at the scene.

The most important thing is that the whole show will be broadcast live.

Of course, not 100% live. A small number of sitcoms need to take into account special circumstances, such as the speed of the actors' costume changes, and for example, the large-scale modification and replacement of the scene, these sitcoms need to be recorded in advance, but generally speaking, only one or two sitcoms are like this, and most of the shows always insist on live broadcasting.

So, during the live broadcast, the actors have no intention of laughing, which is also a very interesting thing.

It's because of the live broadcast that "Saturday Night Live" is very busy during the season, with live broadcasts every Saturday, Sunday, Monday and Tuesday being the time for writers to write their scripts - most of the regular actors signed by the show team are talented comedians, many of the scripts are written by themselves, and the roles are often swapped between the writers and actors.

Wednesday and Thursday are rehearsals, and Friday is the final exercise. At the same time, during the rehearsal process, if there is a new hot topic, they also need to adjust the content of the script at any time.

It's really a high-speed operation without the slightest break.

As guest performers, in order to ensure the smooth progress of the live broadcast, they need to arrive in New York at least two days in advance to rehearse with the entire program team; There are only a very, very few special circumstances where the performers can only rehearse one day in advance, so the program team needs to adjust the live broadcast, arrange the supporting roles of the performers without lines as much as possible, and put the main performance responsibility on their regular actors.

Today is Wednesday, and Lu Ke made a special trip to New York for a rehearsal.

As the top talk show in the United States, the biggest difference between "Saturday Night Live" and "Tonight Show", "Oprah Talk Show" and so on is that those talk shows are mainly interviews and conversations, while "Saturday Night Live" is mainly based on performances and jokes, which also means that for many sports players, this is a great opportunity to show themselves.

Many of the biggest stars in baseball, basketball and ice hockey have appeared on Saturday Night Live, and football is no exception, with Peyton Manning, Eli Manning, Tom Brady and others all invited to appear as guest performers on Saturday Night Live after winning the Super Bowl.

This time it was Lu Ke's turn.

"Relax, relax, you're definitely going to be doing very, very good! Bambi, you should believe in yourself, and if you can show your usual two-time success, I'm pretty sure that all the audience will go crazy for you, like on the Super Bowl stage. Do you know? In the past time, I have heard your name everywhere I go, and I mean it, literally, in any city! Now you just have to be yourself! It's true! ”

As soon as he landed at LaGuardia Airport and was waiting for his carry-on luggage, Lu Ke received a call from Curry.

Judging from the words, Curry is comforting Lu Ke and cheering for Lu Ke; But judging by the tone, Curry is clearly gloating and preparing to watch the show: After all, such opportunities are rare.

Lu Ke said with a serious expression, "I swear, I will definitely lay the groundwork for you on the show, so that people can feel how funny and humorous the famous Stephen Curry is, what a lively and cheerful guy, one day in the future, talk shows must invite you to appear on the show and witness your style." ”

“…… No way? Curry immediately panicked, "Brother, don't do this, you know I'm not suitable." ”

"Where, where." Lu Ke interrupted Curry's words again and again, "You only need to show your usual two successes, and the whole world will go crazy for you, I'm serious." ”

"......" Curry opened his mouth and was dumbfounded, and finally he could only cry and beg for mercy, "Bambi, I didn't mean to do it just now, really, really, I'm worried about you now, really, very, very worried." ”

Lu Ke was amused by Curry's voice and laughed heartily, but now he didn't have time to continue chatting, he could faintly hear the bustling noise coming from outside the arrival hall, if he continued to talk, Lu Ke was about to start pulling his throat, "You better prepare for the next game." I'll wait until I get back to San Francisco. I'm so noisy here. ”

Then hung up the phone, Lu Ke waited for his luggage, and then pushed his luggage to prepare for travel.

Coming to New York from Washington, Lu Ke refused to be accompanied by Vincent Kemp, and the reason why he arrived early was to rehearse for the show, hoping to take a sneak peek around the city, because this is New York, and because this is where Candace has lived for several years.

At this time, at the end of the four major fashion weeks – London, Milan, Paris and New York – Candace was still busy with her work in Europe, unable to fulfill her duties as a landowner; But Lu Ke is still ready to explore the city on his own feet, just as he did when he first arrived in Los Angeles and San Francisco.

Walking out of the arrival hall, Lu Ke raised his head, looked for the sign of a taxi or subway above, and prepared to leave the airport by transportation. At this moment, a piercing and shrill cry came from his ears, "Bambi! The excited and excited voice was trembling slightly, clearly expressing the joy of the master.

Reflexively, Lu Ke followed the source of the sound and cast his gaze, and then saw a black and overwhelming sea of people spreading out all the way in his field of vision, blocking the entire pick-up hall, just an estimate that more than three hundred people or even more surging groups could be seen, like a large black cloud, completely blocking the field of vision.

What the hell is going on?

Lu Ke raised his head again and looked at the sign above the ceiling, this was indeed New York, not San Francisco. So, where did the scene in front of you come from?

The championship craze has not completely dissipated, if Lu Ke appears on the streets of San Francisco, the city residents do cheer and shout with heroic treatment, and the super popularity has always remained high, and even Jiang Youning and Lu Zhengze have repeatedly become the objects of people's warm greetings, and all aspects make people feel the close connection between the team and the city.

But San Francisco and New York are two very different things, and Lu Ke doesn't pretend to think that a Super Bowl winner can make his supporters all over the world.

Now is not the best time to think about it.

Even if Lu Ke wears sunglasses, he can still feel the stinging and burning sensation brought by the ubiquitous flash, the turbulent wave of shock is burning on the surface of the skin, and every pore can feel the enthusiasm of the scene.

Immediately afterwards, the screams and cheers completed the final containment of the encirclement one after another, completely blocking all Lu Ke's escape paths, and the roar of the huge waves hitting the stone continued to hit the eardrums, as if his eardrums had become a drum kit, and then the drum beat sprinkled down wildly, so that the muscles of his body trembled uncontrollably.

In an instant, Lu Ke fell into the predicament of tinnitus and dazzle, and it was really difficult to move an inch.

"Ahhh

"Bambi! I love you! ”

"Lu Ke, you are the best!"

"Bambi, look here, look here!"

"Roar, roar, roar! Whoa! ”

All kinds of screams were mixed with messy shouts, constantly invading, when the tinnitus subsided slightly, those fragmented shouts revealed a general outline, Lu Ke gradually realized the abnormality, the scene is completely mixed with Chinese and English.

At the beginning, Lu Ke thought that he had a delusion.

But after careful distinction, Lu Ke finally confirmed that the Chinese pronunciation of "Lu Ke" does exist, which ...... Could it be that the Asian community and even the Chinese community made a special trip to pick up the airport?

But is this really possible? The scale of the pick-up in front of you is definitely a superstar even if it is placed in Hollywood, which really makes people can't believe their eyes!
