As a country with great food, China can even be said to be the richest, most diverse and most complete country with food in the world.

In fact, there are not so many domestic food programs to count.

The reasons will not be analyzed here. This post is mainly about analyzing food programs.

Part 1: Chen Xiaoqing's "A Bite of China" series If you want to talk about Chinese food programs, then "A Bite of China" is a program that must be mentioned.

But this is not called a program, it is actually a documentary, and it is already too well-known in China. The food and regional food covered in each episode will not be repeated here.

As for the birth of this documentary, it is rumored that CCTV initially decided to make a food program, but the budget was actually limited.

Finally, I found director Chen Xiaoqing, who was not well-known at the time. Chen Xiaoqing himself was a food lover, so he made this documentary with enthusiasm. Unexpectedly, "A Bite of China" became an instant hit and became popular all over the country.

When Chen Xiaoqing was filming the second season of "A Bite of China", he suffered a lot of administrative and capital interference, inserting a lot of advertising and "positive energy" parts, but because of Chen Xiaoqing's control, the final quality was good.

.

In "A Bite of China 3", Chen Xiaoqing is not involved, and the administration and capital are more involved. Everyone knows the final result.

Part 2: "Flavour World" by Chen Xiaoqing Chen Xiaoqing left "A Bite of China" and joined forces with Tencent Video after leaving CCTV, and finally created the latest documentary "Flavour World". Combined with the first two films, "Flavour World" is more like

It's "A Bite of China 3" because the first two films filmed a lot of domestic regional delicacies.

"The World of Flavor" extends the region and culture, connecting China and the West from food, to the processing methods of the world, and the presentation of food from all over the world.

For example, the Chinese ham and Spanish ham in the first episode are the same, as well as all kinds of delicacies, including some odor-eating delicacies.

Part 3: Bilibili's "A String of Life" Bo Guang remembers that after the failure of "A Bite of China 3", South Korea aired a food program "Street Food Fighter", which was hailed as beating "A Bite of China 3"

, Koreans photographed Chinese food very movingly, when Chinese film and television programs and movies were all trash.

It just so happened that Bilibili's first documentary, the low-cost "A String of Life", was aired, which can be said to have given Chinese food programs a boost.

The documentary "A String of Life" is also very simple. As the name suggests, it is about filming the most common barbecue on the streets of China.

From all over the world, you can find everything from seafood to vegetables.

There is another special thing about this excerpt. Unlike those high-end documentaries, the shooting method of this documentary is very down-to-earth.

When watching "A String of Life", I felt like it was happening right next to the Chinese people. It made people drool easily and move their index fingers.

Part 4: Nicholas Tse's "Twelve Flavors" series was originally intended to recommend food programs, but there are really very few domestic food programs, especially variety shows, that are excellent.

Like "Chinese Restaurant" and "Longing for Life", even if we don't talk about the issue of imitating and plagiarizing Korean programs, the food and acting elements in them are also very low in realism.

Other variety shows such as "Please Help the Refrigerator", "Familiar Taste", "Wild Kitchen", "Wonderful Eating Light", "Perfect Restaurant" and other variety shows also face creative imitation and plagiarism, and lack of expression in food.

Disadvantages, not enough to recommend and watch seriously.

Finally, after careful consideration, there is only Nicholas Tse's "Twelve Flavors of Flavors", which can be regarded as a star program that is doing food in a down-to-earth manner, but its reputation quality is not very good. Domestic food variety shows really need to work hard.

Food film and television works, such as "Late Night Diner", need to be grounded even more.
