1165 Different from the Past

"Hence, as long as such a publicity method came out again, the audience will subconsciously think of it this way. Even if the guest this time was very famous, his status will at least be on par with Sun Yiwu and Ji Cheng to warrant the same kind of publicity from the production team," Lu Man explained.

Lu Dongliu thought about it and felt that this was true.

Looking at it from another perspective, if he were an audience member and saw such a publicity method, he would surely recall the publicity from before immediately.

"Should we make it even grander? This is Wang Juhuai we're talking about!" Lu Dongliu hated that he could not just pump in all the publicity funds of the production team into this teaser and apply for a bit more funds from the station afterward.

This was Wang Juhuai they were talking about!

For their publicity, they must definitely wave the red flags and sound the gongs and drums!

"It's just publicity, how grand does it need to be? If we can reveal the identity of the mystery guest right from the start, the publicity can naturally be as grand as it can get. However, the format of our show is set. The mystery guest cannot be revealed before the show, or else there would be no surprise element or highlight to it. So, no matter how grand the publicity is, it won't really matter," Lu Man reminded him.

Lu Dongliu smacked his head. He was really so overwhelmed with joy that he even forgot about how his own show works.

Since they could not reveal the identity of the mystery guest, it would be futile no matter how grand the publicity was.

"Hence, it will be good to continue using the publicity method from the third episode. If you feel like something is still missing, you can work on the hints for the identity of the mystery guest. For example, we described Director Sun and Director Ji as making their debut on variety shows the previous time around. This time, we can add the word 'international' in front of it!" Lu Man said as she smiled.

Lu Dongliu was elated when he heard that.

This was way too crafty and naughty.

Saying that it was an international variety show debut sounded really impressive.

If Wang Juhuai was introduced right from the start, that naming would be justified and make sense.

However, the point was that netizens did not know.

The phrase "international debut on variety shows" had too wide of a scope.

After all, there were only a bunch of artistes who had achieved international acclaim. There were a few who were well-known in South Korea and participated in some of the variety shows there.

However, when speaking of international fame, the first thing most people would think of was still Hollywood.

Currently, only two people had been to the talk shows there before.

Furthermore, most of the artistes within the country, including the A-listers, had not made a name for themselves beyond the country, much less made an international debut on a variety show.

There were a few famous artistes who had indeed been so focused on their acting careers that they had not even attended any of the variety shows within the country.

In that sense, the scope of the international variety debut was so broad that one would find it hard to make a guess.

"Okay, I will ask someone to prepare it right now!" Lu Dongliu ended the call and could not help but keep rubbing his hands together as his mind was overwhelmed with ecstasy.

Lu Dongliu walked out of his office and clapped his hands to gather the attention of his subordinates. "Come, everyone, please put aside your work for a while and listen closely!"

Everyone stopped what they were doing and turned their attention to Lu Dongliu.

"We are about to record the finale episode of Classic X Files. Everyone has the guest list on hand with you. As for the names of the mystery guests, the artistes we invited have already sent them over," Lu Dongliu said.

Team Leader Huang from the publicity team asked, "Lu Man sent hers in as well?"

"Yes, Lu Man sent hers in too," Lu Dongliu said. "Also, the mystery guest that Lu Man invited this time is an extremely huge big-shot. He is renowned internationally. It's different from the past!"
