After 18 young people from both sides of the Taiwan Strait swung the bat, - The Great Us 2 - ended

From the first time he stepped on the court to being able to cooperate with his teammates to complete offense and defense, - The Great Us 2 - filmed the training and competition of 18 young people from both sides of the Taiwan Strait into a season program.This baseball reality show has recently come to an end, and the youth team led by Li Fei'er and Jiang Luxia have also completed this stage of living and competing together.

The program will be launched at the end of July 2026 and will be simulcast through Southeast TV, Straits TV, Mango TV and other channels.The closing introduction revealed that in the second season, the number of views of the feature film on the Mango site has exceeded 1 billion, and the total exposure on the entire network has exceeded 1.5 billion.The results of the first season include over 700 million views of the feature film and over 300 million topic views. It was once ranked the second most popular Mango variety show at the same time, with 75 hot searches on the entire network.

The second season added competition systems such as team confrontation, training experience, honor proof battle and team integration trial.Individual players need to make up for their shortcomings, and a team needs to solve the problems of unfamiliarity with each other and poor coordination.The camera follows the daily training and official duels, recording the mistakes made when they were new to the game, repeated trials, and also leaving moments of comebacks and regretful stops.

When shooting amateur athletes, you will first encounter a very practical problem: the audience may not understand the game.There are a whole set of rules involved with strike zones, outs, and base advancement, and terms like triples, home runs, stolen bases, etc. also need explanation.The first season has already introduced some viewers to these concepts, but we are still figuring out how to balance professional content and variety show rhythm, and how to make outsiders continue to watch.In the second season, rules are incorporated into training, competitive games and game commentary, and try to let knowledge appear with the actions on the field.Conflicts and reconciliation between teammates, tears after failure, and recovery from injuries and setbacks have also become part of the narrative of the group portrait.Some people have become brave from timidity, and some have learned to change from fighting alone to teamwork. Students from both sides of the Taiwan Strait compete and live together, which provides specific scenarios for daily communication.

There are still difficulties with this shooting method.Baseball’s audience base in mainland China is limited, and it is difficult to directly copy the path of popular star variety shows in terms of topic dissemination and commercial popularity; the program is too professional, and beginners are easily blocked, and excessive entertainment will weaken the competition itself.The growth process of amateurs relies on real materials. The editing must not only clearly explain the changes in the characters, but also explain what exactly happened in a game.

The baseball industry in which the show is set is also being nurtured.The final report took the development of professional baseball in the United States as a reference and mentioned that MLB can create an economic output of approximately US$12 billion a year; Japan, South Korea and Taiwan have formed a system that supports each other in professional leagues, youth training, fan culture and business development.Mainland China still needs to continue to build in terms of popularity, site resources and industrial supporting facilities.

The General Office of the State Council - Opinions on Developing Sports Events to Stimulate Consumption Vitality - and other documents proposed the development of a professional baseball league.The CPB China Baseball City League, guided by the China Baseball Association, is exploring market-oriented and professional paths. National youth competitions, campus baseball promotions, public welfare science popularization of national players and cross-strait exchange events also provide different entrances to the sport.The program hopes to use mass entertainment communication methods to make training and competitions visible to more ordinary audiences.

Focusing on subsequent operations, Kuan Xiang Entertainment, the IP copyright owner of "Awesome Us", and Haixi Sports have reached strategic coordination to promote the integration of the baseball industry and pan-entertainment resources.The program stated that it will continue to create around youth sports culture and explore niche sports themes.
