Chapter 146 Big Brother Heating Premiere

In order to welcome the brand-new reality show to take over the prime time on Friday, Fox Broadcasting Company even took out a two-hour program time slot on the day of the premiere.According to the commercial time of general American programs, Fox Broadcasting Company specially prepared a half-hour commercial period for "Big Brother".However, to the embarrassment of the Fox Broadcasting Company, the half-hour advertising period was only sold for less than 1 minutes, and it was still sold to regular customers at a preferential price.Fortunately, Fox Broadcasting Company only tried to sign the first episode of the program, mainly because the advertisers were not at ease about the ratings of this program.

From the first episode of the first season, "Big Brother" instilled in all viewers the fact that the privacy of all contestants is under the surveillance of the camera lens.In a star-rated apartment built in a large studio, there are cameras and radio microphones in every corner, even toilets and bathrooms.It’s just that due to the scale of the show, the angles of the cameras in bathrooms and toilets will be arranged ingeniously, which basically won’t make the contestants happy.In the bedrooms of men and women, there are even more cameras.Even after the lights are turned off, an infrared camera will continue to shoot.

The facilities on the first floor are relatively ordinary, probably just the comfort of an ordinary apartment.The owner's single room on the second floor is completely designed according to the Las Vegas presidential suite, not only has a spacious kingsize bed, but also a computer-controlled jacuzzi.The champion who participates in the weekly challenge and wins will have the exclusive use of this host room for up to a week, and the host can nominate two people to participate in the elimination round every weekend.

At this time, the host showed everyone the two most unique rooms in this magical apartment, that is, the "voting room" and the "telephone booth".After homeowners announce their eliminations for the week, everyone, including homeowners and candidates, will vote 24 hours later.Everyone will vote with their real names in the voting room and explain why they voted.

The phone booth is the only way for the contestants to communicate with the outside world during the program. You must know that all contestants are only allowed to bring clothes into the challenge apartment.In the challenge apartment, there is no TV, no newspapers and magazines, let alone the Internet.There is only one hour of call time per week before voting, and the order of the calls is determined by the homeowner.The producer of the program does not limit the time that each person can spend on the phone, so the players who are ahead of the competition have a better chance of getting a weekly call with their family members.

Any player who is eliminated will know who voted for his elimination after the elimination, and these eliminated players will vote on who among the final two players will receive a $5 prize.Various settings made it take 10 minutes for the "Big Brother" program to finish explaining.At this time, the director said that the ratings of all franchised stations across the country are increasing.

After the 10-minute introduction of the rules, sixteen contestants, eight men and eight women who did not know each other, appeared on the stage.There are beautiful American sweet girls and strong and sexy fitness instructors; there are top students from MIT and restaurant waiters who have not graduated from high school; there are decent female white-collar workers from Fortune 16 companies and once A libertine who can't eat enough... In short, these [-] people have almost all the occupations and backgrounds imaginable.

Before entering the challenge apartment, they were asked to hand over their mobile phones and computers, and were also asked to check their suitcases to ensure that no prohibited items were brought into the apartment except clothing.In fact, in addition to the fixed cameras in the apartment, there are at least three staff behind each contestant, the cameraman, the director and the screenwriter.If it comes to the competition stage, there will be more cameramen, and there will even be several cranes as the audience monitoring.It is precisely because there are so many cameras that the edited images are very exciting.

After the sixteen contestants got to know each other, they immediately began to intrigue.A farmer in his 40s from Florida has begun to tandem with the older boys in the contestants, determined to ensure that his group will not be eliminated before the finals, and at the same time try to send dangerous players out of the game as much as possible.And the one who was set as a dangerous target by these old men was a female white-collar worker from a multinational company. Because of her project management experience, the old men worried that she would connect with more people to eliminate them, and the charm of this girl was enough to conquer Any man in this room.

And when these old men were messing around, the female white-collar workers also noticed.She said privately to the camera: "I don't want to take the initiative to deal with anyone, but if anyone dares to come to deal with me, I can only say that he found the wrong person. I must say, they underestimated me, I will send them Kicked out one by one."

When the female white-collar worker changed her image of a temperamental beauty in front of her, the ratings of the Fox TV network in various cities rose again.The drama of a gentle beauty turning into a domineering queen is still very popular. Sure enough, everyone soon saw the action of the female white-collar worker, and she quickly gathered a group of people around her. What was even more unexpected was that she secretly wooed A relatively neutral fitness instructor and top science student.

But luckily, in the following competition, the team of the female white-collar workers lost to the old men's team, and the firefighter John in the old men's team became the first roommate since the broadcast of "Big Brother". Lord, now he can not only live in the most luxurious owner's room in the apartment, but also has the power to arrange calls and nominate and eliminate candidates.

To make matters worse, the old men's group not only successfully lobbied all the male compatriots to vote for the female white-collar workers, but even the women's team lost a few votes, and the remaining few votes were also in a state of uncertainty.

Many viewers lamented that it seems that the female white-collar workers must be out this time.

But unexpectedly, in the early hours of the morning, a female white-collar worker knocked on the owner's room and asked, "Can I try your jacuzzi?"

Suddenly the whole program became extremely meandering.At this time, the firefighters were only wearing a pair of tight-fitting boxer underwear. Not only did their eight-pack abs drive the housewives in front of the TV crazy, but the inexplicably bulging bag on the underwear made many mature women spit out nosebleeds.

The firefighter is obviously not a vegetarian man, he also smiled and said: "The bathtub is very big, and there are good scented candles and massage oils. My wife is very satisfied with my massage skills, you need my services Is it?"

At this time, all the housewives and mature women suddenly remembered, didn't the man flirting with the sexy white-collar woman on TV declare how he loves his family and wife at the beginning of the program?Also showed everyone his happy family.

Many women began to yell in front of the TV, "Liar! Heartbreaker! Think about your wife and your three daughters!"

However, the roar of the audience could not be transmitted to the TV, and the female white-collar workers and firefighters had already signed for the owner's exclusive bathroom.Because of the limitation of the scale of the program, but also to leave a gimmick, the picture ends here.However, when the nomination list was announced the next day, what surprised the old man group was that the firefighters who had vowed to eliminate female white-collar workers turned their guns on the two least threatening contestants.

This made the farmer Jack very dissatisfied. He ran to the owner's single room and asked in private, "Did you reach an agreement with her? What did she give you?"

Firefighter John also assured me sternly, "She didn't give me any guarantees, I just think that eliminating her so quickly will make people aware of our own alliance. Jack, you don't want our alliance to be discovered so quickly, do you? "

Perhaps it was John's explanation that satisfied Jack. He nodded and said, "I hope you can inform me and Charlie before you make a decision next time. After all, the three of us are allies, and our goal is to share the final top three prize money!"

The big reversal plot at the time of nomination caused the ratings to soar to 3 million viewers, basically catching up with the average ratings of the gold medal series on the US TV network.Faced with this data, Fox Broadcasting Company immediately decided to continue to maintain a two-hour live broadcast next week, but the advertising fee per minute will double the normal standard. Thinking about it, there are still countless people waiting in line to buy it.Interesting viewers at this point are whether it's American Sweetie Lily or College Prep Jackie who is about to be eliminated.

At this time, the natural affinity of girls played a great role. At the critical moment, Lily made almost all the girls become sisters with her, and even the boys decided to keep Lily with their delicate and innocent eyes.Sure enough, in the final voting, almost all the elimination votes went to Xiaojie.The reason for girls is that they can’t let their good sisters out, while the reason for boys is that they can’t bear to see beautiful women cry... When the host announced that the final candidate for elimination was Xiaojie, Xiaojie took himself to pack up The luggage left the challenge apartment.

Outside the apartment, the host specially interviewed Xiaojie, told him all the people who eliminated him, and asked him what he thought.Xiaojie smiled bitterly: "Who told me not to be a cute girl?"

With the decision of the first eliminated personnel, the first issue of "Big Brother" also ended successfully.However, in the last 1-minute preview, the audience saw more content.Sister-in-law Lily had a falling out with the other girls in the first issue, and the American Sweetie was smoking cigarettes in the little garden with impunity.At the same time, shocking news broke out in the boys group. The freelance worker Andrew is actually gay, so the boys decided to unite and get rid of him...

After leaving a lot of gimmicks, the first episode of "Big Brother" was completely broadcast.A few minutes later, both Fox Broadcasting Company and Dongfeng TV Company obtained the ratings data given by Nielsen. The average ratings of "Big Brother" ranked No.1 in the same period, and even won the top five results in the same period throughout the week.

However, B1og.com, a blog site under Jade's just launched, suddenly appeared several comment blogs about "Big Brother", and most people expressed their interest in this novel reality show.But there are also people who worry about whether such a program of prying into privacy is really ethical and moral?

Seeing these discussions, Jia Fei and Mai Ruibo's faces were crooked. This is what they wanted."Big Brother" produced by Dongfeng TV is to a certain extent to stir up topics to warm up for "The Truman Show".Seeing that there were already such topics on the Internet at this time, they immediately contacted familiar commentators and analysts to write articles to discuss "Big Brother" and the crisis of personal privacy in today's society.As long as this topic becomes hot, the official promotional video of "The Truman Show" will be released.

But at this time, Jed is still squatting in the editing room to check the newly edited "Peerless Catastrophe". The big scene shot by Imax is really shocking. Jed thinks it is perfect as a commercial film, but he has to win word of mouth. But it's a bit difficult.
