This man knows how to hype

Chapter 407 I can’t tell the difference, I really can’t tell the difference!
What is true immersion?
It's a play within a play within a play, making it difficult for you to tell the difference.

You know that you are an extra, but the problem is that when you are an extra, the role you play is also an “extra.”

The director who assigns you tasks is a director in real life, and he is also a "director" in the play.

Even if there are players who are out of control, it can still be considered "reasonable content."

This is really easy to make people dazed.

Just like the guy reading the newspaper, he is a little dazed now.

He and Zheng Yuanxian were in the same group, and the director assigned them four tasks.

The first one was to go with Zheng Yuanxian to find ink and printing presses, to fabricate fake news and make fake newspapers, and to change the picture of "Truman's father" being taken away into a picture of "other homeless people" being taken away.

This one can be seen as doing a mission.

But the second thing is, when Truman passed by the newsstand today, he was placed next to the TV series poster of "New Paradise·Wangxian", which successfully created an advertisement.

For this task, the newspaper reader was a little confused as to whether it was required by the plot or was really an advertisement for "New Paradise·Wangxian".

They are not the only ones who have the task of advertising. People in other groups also have similar tasks.

However, anyone who has watched the original version of "The Truman Show" knows that Truman's wife is the king of advertising.

As the plot continues to advance, Truman's mother and his wife accompany him to look through the photos, hoping to dispel his idea of ​​escaping through family and affection.

In the original version, while looking through the photos, Truman discovered that his wife had crossed her index and middle fingers to make a cross when taking wedding photos.

This was a plea to God for forgiveness, for her lie, that is, the marriage was a fake.

However, although there are many people in China who believe in this religion, few people know the meaning of this action. Therefore, Xu Xiyu changed it directly.

The way to change it is also very simple.

When Truman was looking through the photos, he accidentally saw the words "Li x Chu" on the back.

So, the next day, Truman wanted to talk to his wife Amei.

But A-Mei didn't want to talk to him and hurried out using the excuse of having surgery.

At this time, before Ah Mei went out, he suddenly said, "Then be careful on the road, Li Fangyuan."

Truman called out vaguely, but Li Fangyuan was obviously tense, and then she pretended to be puzzled and asked with a stiff face: "Who is Li Fangyuan?"

Seeing that he called out the three words "Li Fangyuan" so vaguely, his wife was able to ask back clearly.

Truman's expression changed, he shook his head and said: "Nothing, I might be too tired."

"I knew you must be too tired." Li Fangyuan said as he took a step back from the door. "You are lacking energy, and your waist and legs ache. It is very likely that you are lacking kidney energy."

After saying that, she took out a bottle of "Hui Ren Shen Bao Tablets" from her bag.

Turning around, he showed a very professional smile to the camera, holding the Shenbao tablets in both hands, and recited a classic advertising slogan: "Huiren Shenbao, he is good, I am good too!"

With a "bang", Truman furiously slapped the Huiren Shenbao tablets from Li Fangyuan's hand: "Why, why do you always talk to the air? What on earth are you doing?!"

Li Fangyuan did not answer Truman's question, but quickly picked up the Huiren Shenbao tablets and placed them on the table.

He continued to say to Truman: "You are tired, take some kidney tablets and have a rest, I am going to work."

After saying that, she turned and walked out.

Leaving Truman standing there angry and helpless.

The next second, Li Fangyuan came back again.

When she came back, she didn't talk to Truman, but turned the bottle of Shenbao tablets. Because the bottle was not placed straight enough, she wanted to adjust the angle so that the product label would face the camera.

This action made the audience watching at the moment feel extremely absurd.

"Oh my God! Is Li Fangyuan still a human being? Meng Chengming is in such a state, but she is still thinking about her crappy advertisement?" Cheng Yunqing couldn't help but complain when he saw this.

Obviously, her emotions have been aroused.

Hu Ningtian looked at Xu Xiyu in surprise and said, "Did Huiren Shenbao pay?"

"Yes, they did. In fact, I was the one who came up with the slogan 'Hui Ren Shen Bao, it's good for him, and it's good for me too'." Xu Xiyu couldn't help laughing as he spoke.

"Pfft~ Hehehehe..." As soon as he finished speaking, Hu Ningwei couldn't hold it anymore.

"What are you laughing at? Little brat, is this a topic you should participate in?" Hu Ningtian couldn't help but complain.

"I've reached adulthood a long time ago." Hu Ningwei wrinkled her nose and snorted.

Her words almost made Hu Ningtian drunk.

Because his first reaction was, could it be that his sister and his grandson Xu Xiyu had done something that adults could do?

I really can't accept this.

Perhaps realizing that he was thinking in the wrong direction, Xu Xiyu smiled and brought the subject back to the topic, saying, "Not only Huiren Shenbao, but all the advertisements that appear here have paid me."

"In other words, you have already recovered the cost of this performance?" Cheng Yunqing asked with interest.

"Yes, I should say, I made a lot of money." Xu Xiyu raised the corner of his mouth.

Without waiting for a reply, he continued: "More importantly, it is reasonable to put advertisements here, and it is even a necessary setting to promote emotions and plot.

With Lao Meng's performance and real-time reaction, the more advertisements are played, the more indignant the audience will be, just like you just now.

In this case, Lao Meng, who had fully reacted, could persuade tourists to defect in batches and ask them to help him escape.

The game then entered the second stage, and each group of tourists felt that they were the only team in the venue that was helping Lao Meng.

These different teams have their own different covert missions and will receive different souvenirs. In this way, when Lao Meng successfully escapes in the end, they will have a huge sense of accomplishment and positive feedback. "

Hearing his arrangement, Hu Ningtian couldn't help but say, "Xiyu, I can't help but sigh recently. I think you are really born to do this job."

"That's true." Cheng Yunqing nodded in approval.

Hu Ningwei didn't say anything, because there were already stars in her eyes.

Just when he was daydreaming, Hu Ningtian remembered another thing.

He just said: "Well, if the more ads are shown, the more indignant the audience will be. Then is it possible that the audience will vent their indignation in the drama on the real brand?"

"Yes, it is possible. Take me for example. I might get angry when I see Huiren Shenbao in the future." Cheng Yunqing added with a smile.

After hearing what they said, Xu Xiyu smiled even more: "You're right to be angry. In the setting, the audience of The Truman Show is all-round. Can the audience here be considered all-round now?"

"What do you mean, you have a backup plan?" Hu Ningtian asked curiously.

"Of course, otherwise how could I have the nerve to charge them so much money just for advertising in this theater?" Xu Xiyu laughed. "Don't keep me in suspense, what's the back-up plan?"

"It's hard to explain in a few words. You will understand it later." Xu Xiyu said and looked at his watch.

Time passed slowly as several people chatted.

The performance in the theater continued to advance, and as night fell, the plot had come to an end.

With the help of the "tourists", Truman successfully deceived the director team. He boarded a boat and went out to sea.

The lights and sound effects on the scene were on full blast, with lightning, thunder, and rumbling sounds incessantly.

Whether it was the audience outside or the audience inside, all eyes were focused on the screen.

Watch as Truman overcame his fear of the sea, successfully reached the edge of the studio, and found the way out.

Even Zheng Yuanxian became a little excited.

More than 4 hours of immersive experience were enough to make his emotions completely follow the plot.

Even when he occasionally remembered the purpose of his visit, he would comfort himself by saying, "If I don't immerse myself in the experience, how can I collect the most authentic information?"

With this idea in mind, he worked the hardest on his tasks.

Don’t ask. The answer is that I am just collecting materials. I am not here to play, but to work. How can I not be serious about my work?

He was serious, and Meng Chengming was even more serious. After more than four hours of high-intensity performance, he was a little tired.

But he really enjoyed the performance.

Now, it’s almost time to bow out, and I have to give a perfect performance.

"In case I never see you again, I wish you a good morning, good afternoon, and good evening!"

After saying this line, Truman on the screen stood in front of the door and bowed to the camera as a farewell.

Along with this action, there was a "boom" sound, and the tourists in the venue, the audience outside the venue, and the crew members all applauded without exception.

Some of the more sentimental female extras even felt their noses sore and cried with their hands covering their faces.

This is not an exaggeration, many people are moved by the content of movies when they watch them normally, not to mention personally participating in a performance this time, the emotional feedback it brings is quite huge.

But they didn't know that the show wasn't over yet.

Truman on the screen pushed open the door and walked in without any hesitation.

At the same moment, a door was pushed open on the lower left side of the large screen in the square, and Truman walked out of the door and stood in front of all the audience outside the square.

Indescribable.

It is really hard for the audience to describe the feeling at this moment.

Seeing Meng Chengming coming out, everyone felt goosebumps.

Cheers, applause, and even whistles continued to be heard.

But Meng Chengming turned a deaf ear to it. He turned his head in disbelief and looked at the screen, where he was being played synchronously.

He was filled with emotions as he approached, touched, looked up, and looked at himself on the screen.

Then he slowly turned around and looked at the audience who were cheering for him, his expression at a loss and his body tense.

At this moment, he really was like Truman who had stepped out of Utopia Island.

For the first time, I looked directly at the real world;
Meeting a real-world audience for the first time.

The audience at the scene quickly realized that the performance was not over yet.

As a result, everyone fell silent quickly and tacitly.

The scene became quiet for a moment.

Suddenly, a voice called out: "Cheng Ming!"

Everyone looked in the direction of the voice and saw a beautiful figure rushing out from the audience. It turned out to be Li Shangling, the true love. She ran over quickly and hugged Meng Chengming.

"Shi Ya!" There was some surprise on Meng Chengming's face.

At this moment, thunderous applause broke out again at the scene, because everyone felt that this was really the curtain call.

Truman came to the real world and found true love.

It was a beautiful ending.

Driven by this idea, various voices of praise rang out one after another.

"Teacher Meng, awesome!!!"

“It was a great performance!”

"Best Actor!! Best Actor!! Best Actor!!!"

Amid the cheers of the crowd, Li Shangling broke free from Meng Chengming's arms and pulled him to bow to the audience.

After expressing her gratitude, she waved towards the distance, and a BYD's latest high-end electric car drove over.

Then, amid the cheers of the audience, Li Shangling, who was wearing a microphone, suddenly introduced: "Cheng Ming, this is the latest product developed by BiaDi..."

Quiet.

The audience gradually became quiet as Li Shangling continued to introduce.

"Let's go, let's get in this latest model of BYD and start a new life." As she said that, she pulled Meng Chengming, who looked incredulous, into the car.

Looking at the car going away, the audience came to their senses.

So, this is where "The Truman Show" truly ends?
Satire.

It's full of sarcasm.

But the aftertaste is long.

What happy ending?

How can you find true love after escaping?

Outside, it’s just a bigger paradise island!
The audience who reacted were really excited.

As mentioned before, there was someone live streaming the event on the screen, so the internet soon became abuzz with excitement.
