At the venue.
The atmosphere was finally heating up!
Those brothers, who were drowsy when they first came, now looked like they had been injected with adrenaline. They were all staring with their eyes wide open in high spirits!
Wang Xiong's mouth was sore from laughing, "This Little Zhang!"
Feng Guiqin looked at Zhang Ye, who was speaking confidently on stage, and nodded slightly.
"Let's see what he has to say next." Another company's Leader was also very excited.
The other colleagues had similar reactions. Just this opening and warm-up scene alone had attracted everyone's attention!
It was even more so for the audience. It was obvious from the cheers and applause!
Zhang Ye pressed his hands down, "Alright, thank you everyone." When the applause stopped, he said seriously, "All of you should know that I have walked step by step to where I am today. I have my own fans and my own program. I can already be considered a successful person." He adjusted his tie, "For a famous person like me, a superstar like me …"
Everyone in the audience jeered!
"Yi!"
"Oh!"
"Haha!"
Zhang Ye blinked his eyes in confusion as he looked offstage, "… This isn't a laughing point?"
"Pfft!" Upon hearing this, the audience laughed even harder!
"Alright, I guess so." Zhang Ye touched his forehead and said, "Today's success often reminds me of the humiliation I suffered when I was young. In school, I would be bullied by boys in the day, and at night … rejected by girls." Upon saying this, Zhang Ye coughed and said with a sigh, "In that era where I was ostracized by others because I was too outstanding, they would never have imagined that I would have this day." Zhang Ye looked at the camera and pointed at it, saying solemnly, "So today, I want to say something to the camera. All those who watched this program and bullied me before, listen up. Your names will constantly appear in jokes!" Saying that, he fiercely pointed at the camera twice!
"Hahaha!"
Everyone laughed and clapped.
Of course, there were a few exceptions.
It was trading time at the stock exchange. There were obviously a few men looking down at their phones, as if they were looking at stocks. All of them were frowning.
Let me introduce myself. My name is Zhang Ye, Miao Honggen from Beijing. I've been in Shanghai for many days and often miss my hometown. For example, a few of my colleagues and I are not locals of Shanghai. Whenever we miss home, for example, when I miss Beijing, I will go out to eat roast duck. For example, when my two colleagues from the Northeast miss home, they will go out to eat dumplings to relieve their homesickness. I also have another colleague, who is also my university classmate. Her name is Dong Shanshan. "
Dong Shanshan: "..."
Here it comes! Here it comes again!
When the audience heard Dong Shanshan's name, they wanted to laugh.
Wang Bei, Zhang Han and the others also smiled at Dong Shanshan and nudged her with their legs.
Zhang Ye said, "Dong Shanshan is from Inner Mongolia. When she misses home, it's a little difficult …" He paused and suddenly changed the topic, "So every time she misses Inner Mongolia in Shanghai, she will go to the stock exchange." Zhang Ye waved his hands and gestured affectionately, "Take a look at the endless green!"
A few people who were lowering their heads and cursing why the stock market was dropping every day suddenly looked up when they heard this. Then, they held their stomachs and burst out laughing!
"Ahahaha!"
"Aiyah, that's too funny!"
"Do you think that's a grassland!?"
Even those who did not speculate in the stock market were amused by this!
Now that the stock market was in a state of green and was dropping every day, Zhang Ye's joke had coincidentally hooked onto the current situation. The effect of the joke was very good!
Dong Shanshan already did not know what expression she had. She looked like she was angry and amused at the same time. The camera kept pointing at her and captured her expressions.
Wang Bei teased, "Shanshan, you have to beat him up when you go down!"
Zhang Han's mouth was also tired from laughing, "Teacher Zhang Ye is too interesting! Aiyah, I can't laugh anymore! My jaws are all stiff! "
Zhang Ye's joke segments came one after another. They were connected very smoothly, without any stiff feeling, "The stock market has been dropping and prices have been rising. Only wages have not increased. Some people say that life in first-tier cities like Beijing and Shanghai is too fast. Is there such a saying?"
This was an interaction with the audience. It was also a major feature of a talk show.
"That's right."
"Yes."
"Yes."
The audience voiced their opinions.
Zhang Ye looked at them, "Do all of you agree with this saying?" Everyone did not understand what Zhang Ye was trying to say. They blinked and did not say a word. Following that, Zhang Ye said, "I don't agree. Furthermore, I find this saying very laughable and childish! Life in first-tier cities like Beijing and Shanghai is too fast? A person who says such a thing must have never lived in a first-tier city before! "With a pause, Zhang Ye suddenly said loudly with a sullen face," Fast? I want to ask! Have you ever taken a car in Beijing and Shanghai? Ah? Have you ever taken a movie in the company's office? Ah? What fast!? "
Everyone was stunned for a moment before bursting into laughter!
Zhang Ye did not stop. He did not give anyone a moment to rest or be depressed. "Speaking of cars, I was reminded of a Central TV morning news report I saw this morning. It's promoting green travel. Everyone has seen it, right?"
"Yes."
"Right."
"This news piece has been repeated for days."
The audience echoed.
Zhang Ye said helplessly, "The news keeps saying that when foreigners buy cars, they don't drive them. Their cars are always left at home. When foreigners go to work, they take the bus or subway!" As he said that, he threw up his hands, "Alright, I believe it, alright?"
"Pfft!"
"Yi!"
"Hahaha!"
Zhang Ye's "I believe it, yet I don't" hit the funny spot of many people!
The sarcasm was too strong. Are you sure it's okay for you to say that?
Zhang Ye said innocently, "I scrimped and lived frugally to finally buy a car. The television immediately made me respond to the call for green travel. Alright, I won't drive it. But the next day... the parking fees increased! I thought that it was too expensive to park there and I really couldn't afford it, so I started driving again. But on the third day... the gas prices increased! In the end, with my meager mathematical abilities, I really couldn't figure out if it was cheaper to park there or drive there! "
The audience laughed incessantly. These words resonated with everyone and they immediately applauded!
Zhang Ye sighed and said, "Do you all know about the Workers' Stadium in Beijing?"
"Yes!"
"I've heard of it!"
The audience responded.
Zhang Ye said with a pained expression, "It's a stadium. It often hosts football matches. I'm a football fan, but ever since the gas prices have risen to such a level, I've never gone to the Workers' Stadium to watch a match again. Well, it's not because the parking fees are too expensive or there's no place to park. It's mainly because when I drive there, the tens of thousands of people in the stadium will be shouting 'Come on, come on, come on'. Aiyah, you don't know how I feel! "He clutched his chest as though he was suffocating. This joke segment had once again linked to current events. And it was news from the past two days!
Wang Xiong applauded!
Even the host, Feng Guiqin, could not help but cover her mouth and laugh.
Zhang Ye straightened his suit and took a deep breath before saying, "It's not easy to live. There are sad things every day. Speaking of watching football, speaking of football, I thought of a piece of news about football betting that I saw yesterday. I heard that the football world is already investigating. Everyone knows about this, right?"
"Yea!"
"I heard about it!"
The audience nodded.
Zhang Ye said, "In recent years, football betting has been banned. It's becoming more and more widespread. Not only do rich people bet on football, even players have begun betting on football." Saying that, he whispered mysteriously, "I have some insider information here that cannot be told to others. Well, of course, I can't do anything about it when it's aired on television."
Everyone laughed!
They heard Zhang Ye say, "It's said that there's a team in the domestic league. How ridiculous is that? There are eleven people playing football on the field, and four of them are betting. Even if it's a team, almost half of the players are betting on their own team to lose. Heh, think about it, is there any suspense left? They will definitely lose. Four of their own players bet on their own team to lose, but in the end... they did not lose! "
"Ha?"
"Ah?"
Everyone looked at Zhang Ye in confusion.
Zhang Ye smacked his lips and said, "Because the opposing team... had eight players who bet on their own team to lose!"
When everyone heard this, they roared with laughter, "Hahahaha!"
A few female audience members wiped their eyes with napkins. They laughed so hard that they were in tears!
This was a joke segment from Zhou Libo's "The Zhou Libo Show", but Zhang Ye had made some changes. Zhang Ye concluded, "So the current situation of China's football can be described as follows: The football association dupes the clubs — this is called management. The clubs dupes the players — this is called operations. The players dupes football — this is called personality. The football association, the clubs, and the players dupe the fans — this is called China football!"
This passage had a lot of meaning.
Some people thought about it for a while before they understood. They immediately clapped and applauded, "Well said!"
The applause lasted for a long time!
Feng Guiqin's eyes lit up!
Wang Xiong and the other leader beside him were the same!
They had thought that Zhang Ye was just making a joke segment with a twist. They never expected that after careful consideration, there would be something so interesting! Zhang Ye estimated the number of words in this chapter... and estimated that it was about time.
He said, "After talking about the recent news, let's talk about the weather. The weather is getting colder and colder. Seeing that it's almost the end of the year, the annual Spring Festival Travel is about to arrive. I believe comrades who have experienced the test of the Spring Festival Travel will have a deep understanding of it. Last year, around the time around the new year, there was a major murder case in a province. The suspect was on the run. When the local police chief was interviewed by a reporter, he firmly said, 'Our investigation department predicted that the suspect would not be able to escape from our province'. Indeed, a few days later, the suspect was arrested. A reporter asked him why he had not escaped after so many days. The suspect could not help but curse, 'Do you think I don't want to run? I f * * king queued at the train station for three days without being able to buy a ticket '. I'll use this joke to commemorate those heroes who managed to snatch a train ticket during the Spring Festival Travel... Of course, I don't need to snatch a ticket. A person of my status will always take a plane! "
"Yi!"
"Yi!"
"Keep bragging!"
Everyone laughed loudly!
Zhang Ye bowed slightly, "Alright, today's' Zhang Ye's Talk Show 'will end here. I am your host, Zhang Ye. I wish everyone a happy weekend!"
