Would a variety show without popular stars have an audience?
In previous years, the answer was most likely no.
However, since the launch of Operation Qinglang, major variety shows have begun to "de-trafficize", and the variety show market has quietly changed accordingly.
As a result, this summer's most popular variety show "Happy Start Again" does not have a single popular star. Instead, it is recorded by 6 "has-been artists" from the top 2007 Fast Boys
