  The sixth season of the popular variety show "Longing for Life" came to Shayutang Village in Haiwei Town, Changjiang Li Autonomous County, Hainan Province, opening a documentary of seaside life.

Sunshine beaches, coconut trees shadows, even across the screen, the audience seems to feel the gusts of sea breeze blowing towards them.

  In addition to the Cape Fishing Village, there are several recent popular variety shows such as "Camp Together" and "The Star Chaser". There are many pastoral fields, starry sky, bonfires and tents. "It has become a high-frequency word in the comments of related netizens.

  Under the influence of the epidemic, people's audio-visual entertainment is shifting to the home scene.

In addition to "cloud fitness" for everyone to move, audio-visual entertainment is also essential to calm down. Recent variety shows have provided everyone with a good way to decompress and relax at home.

From pleasing to the ears and the eyes, to pleasing the heart, the variety show of "Healing Wind" brings the audience's heart closer, the value of communication is higher, and the meaning to society and reality is deeper.

Delivering a sense of healing with life

  In the sixth season of "Longing for Life", the artists lived a fishing village life by the sea.

Wang Zhengyu, the founder of Hexin Media and the chief producer of "Longing for Life", said: "Every season of "Longing for Life", we must look for all kinds of new countryside and feel the happy life of the people. Happy life is passed on to the audience."

  Feeling beautiful in healing and relaxation has always been the highlight of "Slow Variety Shows".

Guan Ling, director of the Film and Television Art Professional Committee of the China Television Art Exchange Association and dean of the School of Drama, Film and Television, Communication University of China, believes: "This kind of program naturally embeds rules and scenes into the flow of life, and its dramatic power is not deliberately or hypocritically expressed. What comes out, but grows naturally in the entire narrative flow, is an organic combination of real life, sincere attitude and natural expression.”

  The recently aired variety shows "Let's Camp Together" and "The Star Chaser" all show similarities in their positioning, that is, three or five friends go out together, slow down, feel nature, and heal their mood.

  In addition to these typical "slow variety shows", there are many types of variety shows in the near future that have also highlighted the warm and healing style characteristics.

For example, the comprehensive N-generation program "Let's Run" has also added a lot of healing elements to the content innovation to boost the audience's confidence in life and expectations for the future.

Soothing people with diverse audio-visual content

  Since the outbreak of the new crown pneumonia epidemic, people's lives and travel methods have been affected, and negative emotions such as tension, anxiety, and loss have inevitably grown.

For the majority of the audience, the sense of happiness and healing obtained on the screen is even more valuable.

  The sense of healing comes not only from the viewing experience, but also from the participating experience.

For example, in the variety show "Friends, Listen Well", the audience can directly participate in the program in the form of letters from the radio station, listening to several guests sitting around reading the letters and giving warm understanding and suggestions.

Although they have never met, the relationship between the audience and the guests has been greatly brought closer, like "talking heart to the cloud" with several old friends.

What is important may not be the answer to the question in the letter, but the sense of companionship that the entire scene and process of the show releases to the audience.

  The creators behind these variety shows have been working hard to soothe people's hearts with audio-visual content and find an outlet for negative emotions.

The "Healing Style" variety show adheres closely to social emotions and mainstream values, and avoids rigid and blunt value output. Instead, it replaces it with a firework and human touch full of intimacy, constantly bringing the audience a sense of companionship, healing power, and arousing empathy.

According to Liu Liming, an associate researcher at the School of Communication and Design of Sun Yat-sen University, such programs have a higher-level guiding force on the basis of entertainment, artistic expression and sincere attitude, and become more philosophical, valuable and meaningful. .

Replenish your spirit with high-quality content

  The audience experienced the emotional healing brought by the variety show, and also enjoyed the immersive entertainment and relaxation during the viewing process.

But that's not the whole point the show brings.

According to Gao Guiwu, director of the Department of Audio-Visual Communication, School of Journalism, Renmin University of China, "healing style" variety shows have built a spiritual home for everyone to relax and heal, but they are by no means "anesthetic" for people.

"The real value of the show is to become a 'gas station' in people's real life. After making a little adjustment here, we resupply ourselves with spiritual nourishment, and then better face the problems encountered in reality. This not only gives The audience's heart has a holiday, and it also fuels the audience's real life and the development of the country and society."

  For example, "Longing for Life" has broadcast live broadcasts in the past few seasons to help rural revitalization and integration of culture and tourism with the homestay industry.

The sixth season is no exception. The romantic fishing village life incorporates elements such as ecological protection and marine knowledge popularization. While healing the mood, it also improves the audience's environmental awareness and creates more development opportunities for the local area.

In the latest episode of "Let's Run", a well-designed "anonymous user" investigation event brought joy to everyone, and also popularized relevant laws and regulations on virtual property.

The program's idea of ​​calling on the whole people to raise their awareness of virtual property safety protection and guard against online fraud has been well received by all sectors of society.

  In the opinion of Yang Chenghu, deputy dean of the School of Art and Media of Beijing Normal University: "From a series of slow variety shows, we have seen the guests help ordinary people bring goods and help rural revitalization in various places, and feel the real life under the water and soil. Livelihood and life, let 'living elsewhere' become 'living in China'."
