Entertainment: My Girlfriend is Actually an Idol Singer is just an ordinary science popularization variety show on HuaShi Channel, and the theme of this episode is "Chivalrous Spirit".
The focus of this episode is to help everyone correctly understand traditional martial arts, and also to promote "The Condor Heroes".
In order to increase the show's exposure, the production team announced on Weibo that super popular producer Ting Yu would be a guest on the show.
Wuxia and traditional martial arts have always been labels of China.
In the past, before Xuanhuan and Xianxia became popular, wuxia was the most popular genre, whether in film and television or online literature.
At that time, the wuxia category was very prosperous in the entertainment industry, producing many high-quality works.
However, after being impacted by Xuanhuan and Xianxia genres, traditional wuxia had long declined, and with some people using traditional martial arts to deceive and make money, it was criticized by many.
Like traditional Chinese medicine, traditional martial arts were labeled as scams.
In this situation, the wuxia genre in entertainment directly entered a niche.
Many wuxia fans defended traditional martial arts while saying, "Wuxia is dead!"
The turning point for traditional martial arts was the collaboration between Ting Yu and Jiang Nan on "Fearless".
This movie told the story of what wuxia and traditional martial arts are through a heroic character.
With the popularity, the Martial Arts Association quickly acted to quell the previous public opinion and allow Chinese netizens to correctly understand traditional martial arts.
Of course, this was just a warm-up.
What truly made wuxia popular again was Jiang Nan's "The Legend of the Condor Heroes".
Eastern Heretic, Western Venom, Southern Emperor, Northern Beggar.
These settings made people feel that this was the true chivalrous spirit.
The character of Guo Jing also made people understand what a great hero should possess.
The greatest hero is for the country and the people.
These eight words perfectly interpret the chivalrous spirit that has been passed down in China for thousands of years.
Programs like "Appreciation of Traditional Culture" have always been favored by the older generation, but this episode attracted many young viewers.
"I remember watching wuxia TV with my dad when I was little, which gave me the dream of becoming a great hero since childhood."
"I've watched Jiang Nan's 'The Legend of the Condor Heroes' several times, and now the new TV series is finally here!"
"Ting Yu is really good to Jiang Nan, coming to the show as a guest himself to help promote his TV series!"
"Jiang Nan and Ting Yu are the lights of the Chinese entertainment industry. I don't know if Jiang Nan is a man or a woman. If she's a woman, I'm going to start shipping them!"
"Lin Yanyu: Gong Juren already made me redundant, and now there's Jiang Nan?"
"As a fan of both Jiang Nan and Ting Yu, I think this ship is great!"
The show began.
First was the segment introducing traditional martial arts.
The production team invited internal members of the Martial Arts Association, President Huo Xian and other senior figures from the association, and the most popular producer in the entire Blue Star, Ting Yu.
This time, Xing Hui wanted to promote the TV series, and Ting Yu was the biggest draw. Therefore, the show would feature Ting Yu's latest ancient-style song. According to Xing Hui, the song tells Ting Yu's views on the word "xia" (chivalry).
The previous song "Bright Moon Horizon" described the chivalrous spirit of young heroes roaming the world with swords, which many people had on repeat. This time, Ting Yu chose Gong Juren to sing the new song, making many fans look forward to its release.
At the beginning of the show, it discussed the origin of wuxia culture, and then the guests from the Martial Arts Association performed traditional martial arts.
At the same time, Huo Xian, the president of the Martial Arts Association, also responded publicly for the first time to the issue of "traditional martial arts being vulnerable".
In China, Taekwondo has always been the most popular discipline, with Taekwondo training classes opening outside every school, but traditional martial arts have gradually declined in recent years.
Even worse, because some people used the name of traditional martial arts to deceive and scam online, the reputation of traditional martial arts was further damaged.
Fortunately, the movie "Fearless", a collaboration between Jiang Nan and Ting Yu, told a story of a hero defending his home and country, which helped restore the reputation of traditional martial arts.
The discussion segment was a bit boring.
But because Ting Yu was on the show and there would be a new song later, the audience was still watching with great interest.
Host's Q&A session.
He looked at the guest area and listened attentively to Su Yu, who was discussing with the seniors from the Martial Arts Association.
"Teacher Ting Yu, please answer this question next." The host was very polite to Su Yu. Although Su Yu was young, he was indeed worthy of respect from many media professionals, because no one in the entire Chinese entertainment industry had achieved as much as Su Yu.
"Please go ahead." Su Yu hadn't expected to be asked questions when he was just there to support.
"If you could go back to ancient times, what kind of great hero would you be?" the host asked, glancing at his script.
Although the script wasn't reviewed in advance, such questions were generally simple and had many official answers.
However, to the host's surprise, Su Yu did not give a very official answer.
He smiled and said, "Everyone has a dream of being a great hero, but I don't. Compared to being a great hero, I prefer to be a free-spirited maverick."
Su Yu's personality was like this. Compared to Guo Jing, who was worried about the country and its people and full of national righteousness, he preferred to be a maverick like Yang Guo, who was unrestrained by worldly affairs and bold and unrestrained.
"Maverick?" Huo Xian, who was beside him, raised his eyebrows at the words and exclaimed, "Well said, maverick!"
Martial artists were open-minded and felt a good impression towards Su Yu's direct answer.
Because if it were others, they would surely answer that they wanted to be a great hero who upholds justice and serves the country and the people.
But Su Yu was different; he wanted to be a free-spirited maverick.
What impressed Huo Xian and the others even more was that despite Su Yu's mindset, he had been doing heroic deeds in reality, bringing the Chinese music scene onto the right track, and achieving such great results on the world stage representing the Chinese music scene.
"As expected of Teacher Ting Yu, this idea is very unique!"
"We admire Teacher Ting Yu's state of mind!"
"As expected of Teacher Ting Yu, he's really individualistic!"
Other members of the Martial Arts Association also cupped their fists towards Su Yu.
The cascade of praise made Su Yu a little embarrassed.
This answer, in addition to his inner thoughts, was mainly to align with the upcoming song and Yang Guo's personality in "The Condor Heroes".
If it were for the promotion of "The Legend of the Condor Heroes", he would definitely say that he wanted to be a great hero for the country and the people.
After all, it had to fit the character.
It was just that Su Yu never expected that his casual remark would receive so much flattery.
"Indeed, even the farts of famous people make sense..."
He complained in his heart.
The words of a successful person could be taken as truth by many.
This was the same in any world.
