After two periods of the male player game and the large-scale "outdoor escape", " Escape Room 4" (hereinafter referred to as "Secret Escape 4") shows that Yang Mi will be welcomed in the trailer The return. At the same time, Reuters, who recorded "Secret Escape 4" by Wang Hedi, the boy group of and 0713, also appeared on social platforms, causing heated discussions.
There is no doubt that this "peach" has become a hot search regular. First, at the beginning of the show, the famous scenes of "kneeling when you start" and "kneeling when you are scared" and "kneeling when you are scared" in William Chan's 's "very frank" behavior of catching NPCs with bare hands. The two's "contrast cute" hilarious Afterwards, Xu Kai arrived and formed the "Brother Dan Brother" with Peng Yuchang. The timid personality made the show constantly create laughs for variety shows. Then, Liu Haoran , Zhang Ruoyun , Zhang Ruoyun's "Milk" is also very interesting...
In addition to the guest effect, the improvement in the setting of secret rooms, the balance between storyline and puzzle solving in content, coupled with the pioneering of innovative secret rooms, driven by multiple effects, "Secret Escape 4" has ushered in a new peak in multiple dimensions.
First, in terms of playback data, according to Yunhe data, in August, "Secret Escape 4" won the second place, second only to "Running Man 6" by Youi and Tencent, and in The just-concluded week (8.29-9.4) variety shows dominate the weekly list. "Secret Escape 4" lags behind "Secret Escape 2" and "Extreme Challenge 8", ranking third. In addition, "Secret Escape 4" has also been many times. It won the top spot on the update day and the second day.
surprise score also occurs in terms of reputation, and the Douban score of 7.9 has become the highest score in the "Secret Escape" series.
, which has always been well received, has also passed on its "strength" to the celebrity version this time.
time is back before the broadcast, "Secret Escape 4" holds the unfavorable opening card of fixed guests being destined to change and the main creative team changes. In addition, the continuous "Accidents" during the recording period, "Secret Escape" originally did not have so many expectations. "Secret Escape" 4》 achieved "changing life" at this turning point. Judging from the multi-dimensional data, has also successfully taken over the banner of "the N generation of comprehensives can still hit new highs."
Why can this "peach" successfully "change life against the trend"? What new ideas are needed behind its new outbreak that are worthy of recognition and learning by each N generation?
"just happens to" the key to the success of "changing one's fate"
"secret escape" series is not the top player of Mango TV in a sense. Its platform investment, market attention, and number of investment promotions are far less than "Riding the Wind and Waves", "Breaking the Thorns" "The Detective" is absolutely S+ level.
, but it is also difficult to replace. On the one hand, this show is in an absolute favorable position in the minds of young audiences of Generation Z. On the other hand, it is also the only variety show that "top" Yang Mi has been resident for four consecutive years. programme.
Season 1 6.6 points, season 2 7 points, season 3 6.6 points. Behind the lack of Douban's rating, it is also the shackles that the "Mi Tao" series cannot usher in louder voices and positive reviews.
is in the fourth season, and it is even more tragic. First, the "founding team" fell apart, and the Xiaobo team went out to establish a new company, which made Yan Ji's team, who had just taken over "Detective 7", take away the "hot potato" of "Secret Escape 4". Then, the core of the "Peach Family" Deng Lun, one of the characters, suddenly experienced tax evasion before the recording of the program, and the fate of this year's "Peach" increased further.
"Secret Escape" fans' hearts remained until the show officially started.
The main film of "Secret Escape 4" begins with "Cowardly Peng Peng".
, Peng Yuchang, who was scared several times in the first episode and knelt to ensure safety by kneeling, not only contributed many famous scenes, but quickly became an important source of short videos, social platform emoticons, and funny clips. At the same time, he was so brave that he grabbed it with bare hands. William Chan, who lives in NPC, forms a sharp contrast, and produces a superimposed variety show effect.Under the effect of
, after the first episode of the film ended, the concerns about the guest configuration and chemical reactions caused by Deng Lun's inability to gather together to a certain extent.
, and roles like Deng Lun who have had variety shows due to timidity in previous years were quickly solved.
Now it seems that the guest configuration of "Secret Escape 4" is exactly the right one, which is an important point that the program has been praised by many viewers. The permanent guests composed of
Yang Mi, Da Zhang Wei , Huang Minghao , and Zhang Guowei are all members of the classic "Peach Family" that the audience expects, and are also members of the acquaintance bureau that is prone to produce program effects. The configuration of and the acquaintance bureau is also Let the "secret escape" spirit continue. The group spirit is also one of the reasons why the audience likes the "Secret Escape" series.
At the same time, Yang Mi and Huang Minghao's brainpower are responsible, and they encounter high-level agencies looking for Zhang Guowei. The memes that Da Zhangwei has appeared from time to time continue this season. After Deng Lun's absence, the participation of flying guests such as Peng Yuchang, Xu Kai, and Zhang Ruoyun also filled the roles of "timid" players in previous programs. Judging from the results, the effect is quite satisfactory.
Whether it is the "toxic milk" and "tank" in the secret room, or the mental, physical, and variety show performances presented in the program, the guests of have clear division of labor, and they all have interlaced highlights , and the eighth episode has passed. The candidates for "Secret Escape 4" are still online.
Guests are players, but whether the show is good or not is the other core lies in whether the secret room is online.
, four secret rooms in the eighth issue, "Secret Escape 4" contributes four secret rooms with different styles.
"Theater Shadow" pulls players to the castle theater. "The Ancient House Shock" plays Chinese-style horror, "Angel Academy" takes on "campus style", while the first half of "The Town Strange Talk" tends to be Mechanical puzzle solving.
is equipped with various styles of secret rooms, and is a secret room setting with various mechanisms and puzzles that are constantly increasing.
In "Theater Shadow", there is a lock that needs to be interrupted by heat focused with all the lights; in "The Ancient House Shock", moving the stone wall made Yang Mi say: "It's been recorded and I haven't seen it for three seasons, it's quite exciting. "The Angel Academy also has passwords that need to be found in the order of appearing in two words according to the order of one letter... or brain-burning, or testing physical strength and courage, all with great density. Similar reviews such as "There are many elements in the level, they are illogical but they are quite creative" also prove the positive feedback the program has received.
In "The Ancient House Shock", the tomb passage, the tomb chamber, the main tomb chamber and other scenes were unlocked one after another. After presenting the tomb chambers with numerous mechanisms in front of the audience, the audience truly felt the program team's intention in further improving the secret room. It's hard to , and then "Town Strange Talk" directly pulled players outdoors, trying to upgrade the outdoor scenes that appeared in the previous seasons, expanding the space and duration. By the fourth season, the space and imagination of the secret room are further expanded. For example, "Chasing War" such as "Small Town Talking" and more "playing methods" based on venue changes also surprise the audience.
But guests, puzzles and escape are not the only highlights of "Secret Escape". passes through many levels, what kind of story should each secret room tell? It is also the curious thing about "Secret Escape". In "Secret Escape", it is also the "Secret Escape". In 4", the storyline was also well displayed.
"Theater Shadow" starts with finding Xiaowei in the defeated castle. After exploring a love story, it is about reflection on war and appeal for peace; "The Ancient House Shock" opens with "Ghost Marriage". Trying to find the secret of Taoist house disappearing overnight, but eventually moves towards a story of enduring humiliation and protecting national treasures... With the unlocking of levels and the unraveling of puzzles, the story reverses layer by layer and eventually falls into a discussion of social issues. The puzzle and storyline of "Secret Escape 4" has reached a certain level of balance.
eight episodes were updated. Most of the links and most of the situations made "Secret Escape 4" gain a reputation and popularity beyond previous seasons.
How to survive "secret escape"? What should I learn in the N generation of
?
Compared with the first three seasons, "Secret Escape 4" has undoubtedly achieved the "counter-trend change of fate" of the N generation.
In addition to the reasons for its continuous upgrade and iteration, the new high of "Secret Escape 4" may also be related to the Douban score that is easily surpassed in previous seasons and the poor performance of most "fanci" this year.
But after "Secret Escape 4", can the subsequent "Secret Peach" series really continue to "escape" successfully?
First of all, it is still a guest configuration issue.
Although the resident guests of the fourth season and the flight guests in several episodes have received most praises, in Yang Mi's absence, there is no other "brain-powered responsibility" that appears, which makes many viewers appear Huang Minghao. The impression of "one to five" affects the viewing ability of solving puzzles in secret rooms. What kind of permanent guests are the most effective to match what kind of flying guests are still a problem that has always existed and needs to be solved.
Secondly, how to control terror elements is also one of the problems.
If you read the comments related to "Secret Escape", questions about whether it is terrifying, whether so many horror elements are needed, settings, etc. can often be seen. Whether it is the sudden black light, the terrifying environment created by dim lights, the NPC's close-up shot, or the pursuit in an empty environment, etc. can indeed increase the stimulation and atmosphere, deepen the audience's immersion. It is easier for the guests to have variety show effects, but the number of horror elements and the form of creating a sense of horror is also one of the problems, not to mention that it is difficult to adjust the audience.
"The disadvantage is that I really feel it's a bit too terrifying. I feel that if I'm immersed, it will be too stressful and not very good for the heart. The thriller element is less difficult than designing the topic, but the focus is increasingly on thriller. It's really not good. " "This kind of escape from the secret room is of course a terrifying element." Different opinions like this also illustrate the different needs of the audience.
Of course, another is the problem that the N generation will always face - innovation. is a puzzle-solving program like "Secret Escape 4", the settings of levels and puzzles can continue to give new highlights and difficulties to the guests and audiences trained in several seasons; props and secret rooms can be set in several seasons of the program. On the basis of high standards, continue to upgrade; while the puzzle solving and storyline are balanced, it is possible to constantly tell good or even reverse stories... The maintenance of the above elements is not easy.
However, fortunately, after a year, after experiencing the inability to return from the resident guests and the changes in the main creative team, the "Secret Escape" series has completed the transformation from Douban 6.6 to 7.9. The Douban score of "Secret Escape God Version" continues to be relatively high. The high level all illustrates the competitiveness of the content of "Secret Escape".
Whether it is the highlight of topics, playback volume and other data, or whether Douban scores hit a new high in the same series, it still makes the N generation of this comprehensive recovery more meaningful. After all, the N generation of the comprehensive comprehensive can maintain good playback volume and It is not uncommon to maintain reputation and even raise reputation, which also drives viewing volume and popularity to reach new highs.
"leader" of love and romance " Heart-wrenching Signal " has rebounded from the third season, but there is still a gap compared to the first season 7.0 and the second season 7.4; "This! The rating of "street dance" has also declined since the second season; Mango TV Another long-lived "comprehensive" " Star Detective " also received the lowest score in the series after being renamed "The Detective"... because of the guest Due to the configuration, the freshness of the initial program mode, the continuous growth of the audience and the aesthetic iteration, the reputation of the longevity variety show is not easy to "live longevity".
Of course, looking at it vertically, especially compared with some other longevity variety shows, the 7.9 score of "Secret Escape 4" is not such a stunning score. After all, there are many people who have achieved too high scores and can maintain high scores for several seasons. exist. The rebound in reputation of "Secret Escape 4" may be more of an effective attempt to comprehensively use N generations of self-iteration.
This attempt also sent a signal to all N generations. Instead of relying on the points that the audience likes every year to dilute the attraction, it is better to think about the reason why "the audience loves you" in advance. They are your longboards. , But don’t rely too much on those choices that do not depend on your “longboard”, but through repeated practices, how to make the “longboard” you can hold firmly in your hands become stronger and wider and longer , the audience will see your efforts as long as you work sincerely.
From the initial small-scale series to the current high-profile playback data and rising reputation, the "revolution of life against the trend" of "Secret Escape 4" is worthy of the envy of every N-generation, and the "Secret Escape" series can look forward to the next four seasons. .
