SHINA evetel oh"
Russian YouTube star Yuri Dud, looking like an average hipster, felt at ease and relaxed when visiting Ivan Urgant. Urgant himself, on the contrary, seemed unusually tense. The meeting was almost historic. On the air, two realities came face to face - the Internet and television. Previous clashes, if they happened, were exclusively in the grotesque genre with freaks and other Diana Shurygins. And now viewers see a young, lively man who, in the eight months of his video blog’s existence, has gained a hundred million views. And this despite the fact that Dud is engaged in the most television business - talking with all sorts of different people. The “Dudya effect” is a funny thing. It seems that success is now rewarded not by presence, but by absence on TV. His programs are traditional, that is, Posner-like. He carefully prepares for the broadcast and conducts classic in-depth interviews. The only deviation from the canon is generous swearing, sometimes motivated by the plot, sometimes not so much. Dudya has a lot of professional problems with dramaturgy, and with the severity of reaction, and with editing. But he has drive, multiplied by the freedom of themes, characters, angles - that is, everything that is not, and soon will not be at all, in the box. His task is to tell the “boys” about important adults who are vying for their attention. When the guys are seasoned, like Zhirinovsky, Rodnyansky, Martirosyan, Navalny, it turns out boring and predictable. Those who are shrouded in a cloud of cliches are difficult to call to revelation. But he has no equal in interviews with people of his generation. Neuromonk Feofan, who crossed bast shoes with electronic music; good actor Alexander Pal, whose bottomless eyes resemble Sergei Bodrov; rapper tired of fame, purulent and suffering rapper Guf (an interesting gentleman who served time for hard drugs) - such a TV portrait gallery could not have been dreamed of. Urgant crowned the pairing of two realities with a video about what the “vDud” project would look like on Channel One. Here the program would be called “Wicket of the Soul.” Quiet piano room
music, a melting candle, touching intonation, tears and sobs brought great joy to the minimalist Dudu. Life is the best screenwriter. No sooner had the gate of the soul slammed shut on one channel than it immediately swung open on another. All that falsehood of the “little man”, which was so bitingly parodied on the First, turned into the truth of life on “Russia” under the name “The Fate of a Man”. Author and presenter: Boris Korchevnikov. He, who fell victim to the sudden transfer of Andrei Malakhov, finally received his compensation. They decided to start the project with a genuine titan, that is, with Vladimir Solovyov. From meeting with
the beautiful Korchevnikov was actually shaking. The eyes are moistened with delight, the voice trembles with happiness. Dostoevsky’s character with the telling surname Lebezyatnikov seems to be copied from him, capable of turning into a caricature everything he sincerely serves. While the presenter was in a swoon of respect, Soloviev himself
began to open the gates of his multifaceted soul. Without naming who cannot be named on TV, he answers Navalny’s questions about wealth and real estate. And everything turns out so smoothly for him. Why rich? I work a lot. Why a villa on Lake Como? Because I have a big family (!!!).
Yes, I love my country, but patriotism is not a written undertaking not to leave. Yes, I help a lot of people, but it’s immodest to talk about it. Yes, he is talented, but my main gift is to see the talent of others, so I launched Satanovsky, Mikheev, Kulikov into orbit (for these three heroes of detective analytics - special thanks from the grateful viewers). The Renaissance power of Solovyov needed physical confirmation, and it was not long in coming. An 80-kilogram tire was brought into the studio, which was placed on the shoulders of Vladimir Rudolfovich. So he and the tire did push-ups on the floor until they stopped him. Solovyov's physical power is inseparable from his spiritual power. He writes books, conducts master classes, sings. And in the studio he sang: “Only a loved one can have such extraordinary eyes.” Korchevnikov’s work is endless. The life and fate of Kiselev and Mamontov have not yet been immortalized, but others will follow. For example, Ernest Matskevichus has already caught up and started making documentaries. There was such a movie about Soros, it’s called “Quantum of Destruction” - it makes your blood run cold. The adept of mobilization journalism found, found in the thick of modern history the culprit of all our, and not our, troubles, and hit the bull's eye. And don’t forget to tell Korchevnikov about the founder Dobrodeev - there is a fate of Shakespearean proportions. Yuri Dudu should definitely watch the premiere of the Rossiya channel. At least in order to understand who he will turn into, moving from one reality to another. It seems that he has a lot of proposals, there is something to think about. I would just for one moment move Dudya from the Internet to TV. The key scene of “The Fate of Man” is full of deep symbolism. Solovyov takes Korchevnikov in his arms (after the splint) and freezes for a moment. How nice it would be if at that very moment Dud asked them the final question of all his interviews: what will you say to Putin when you find yourself in front of him? What will they all say to Putin when they find themselves in front of him? Will they have time to open the gates of their souls in the allotted time?
