Baozou Big News Events

Baozou Big News Events (Chinese: 暴走大事件) is a Chinese Internet talk-variety show program produced by Baozou.[1] It covers the topics of news, literature, history, psychology, geography, politics, chemistry, biology and more. The Host wears a headgear with a comic face during the show, and uses humorous words to report ridiculous news events. The show became popular among Chinese Internet users, and has a young audience.[2][3][4][5] It imitates the program style and title sequence of Russell Howard's Good News, a BBC comedy and topical news show.

Baozou Big News Events reviews the news satirically, allowing the audience to reflect upon the said news events after having a laugh. It was also the first to organize the Red Nose Day in China, which has helped a lot of poor Chinese children.

This show has created many Internet buzzwords, which are widely used by Chinese Internet users.[6] It has also derived a series of Internet shows, such as Baozou Kan Sha Pian (暴走看啥儿片)， Baozou Lu A Lu (暴走撸啊撸) and so on.
