The day when Jean-Luc Reichmann, the emblematic presenter of 12 noon shots, offered a job to one of its candidates…. If there is indeed a television program which has unleashed passions for many years, it is good The twelve noon shots, who is followed daily by millions of viewers for over 10 years.
If these last weeks have been interspersed with many events that have marked fans of the game, the candidates have been just as much, because we must take into account the impact of the notoriety that the big winners of the Twelve noon shots acquire after their passage alongside Jean-Luc Reichmann.
A few days ago ended The Masters Fight, an extraordinary competition that brought together the greatest champions in the history of 12 noon shots during a crazy week which saw the return of the most emblematic figures of the game that hits the headlines on TF1. If the fans were very happy to see Mathieu, Timothée, Xavier and all the other historic candidates, there are two faces that the viewers were particularly waiting. The first is obviously Eric, the Breton native who, a few days before, had managed to become the greatest champion of champions by winning 199 victories and gains of around € 900,000.
A record that had been praised by all viewers, and by Jean-Luc Reichmann who had been completely blown away by the father’s journey, and by his extraordinary culture. But during this return of the great Masters of Midi, it is perhaps another famous figure of the game who was going to return to participate in the show that made him a real star. We obviously want to talk about “wiki Paul”, who had almost become the great champion, but had failed a few steps from the, very envied title, but making an impression forever.
Paul, this 20 year old young man from Grenoble, suffering from Asperger syndrome quickly became the darling of the public, and literally bewitched Jean-Luc Reichmann. During his stay on the show, the game host had given him a promise which Paul will probably remember for a very long time. While on Thursday July 2, 2020, Paul made his comeback in the Twelve noon shots for The Masters Fight, all the fans of the show remembered that April 2019 day when this young student passionate about history had marked the memories with his exceptional abilities and his extraordinary sweetness. Eliminated the following October 10, Jean-Luc Reichmann had taken a real liking for the candidate and even invited him to attend the filming of the series Léo Mattéï, Juvenile Brigade in Marseille to make him spend an extraordinary day. Proof of the animator’s attachment to the young candidate, he had made a proposal that had surprised more than one.
Indeed, Paul admitted that despite his many applications sent, he found it extremely difficult to find a job, when his dream was to work in a bookstore, and that passionate of history, he wanted to be surrounded by books and continue to share his passion. The famous host of Twelve noon shots he then simply offered him a golden job. He suggested that Paul join the question writing team. Twelve noon shots for having been one of the most emblematic candidates of the game, to become a real centerpiece of the successful show at noon at TF1.
A gift and an offer that Paul will probably remember for a long time, but to which he obviously did not wish to follow up, probably preferring to choose another career and another path. If not first once a former candidate joins the production team of Twelve noon shots especially to participate in the development of the questions that are asked daily by Jean-Luc Reichmann in the game, Paul would probably have been a very extraordinary collaborator, given his immense general knowledge and his ability to remember everything.
A collaboration that will ultimately not see the light of day. But Paul seems to have a lot of projects in mind and desires that he wants to achieve. During his visit to The Masters Fight he had even revealed that he was working on a project that would be released as soon as school started. The little prodigy of Twelve noon shots will indeed publish an autobiography which he revealed to Jean-Luc Reichmann during his last participation.
« In September my work will be released, which I did jointly with a pen-lender. For the first, I accepted because I did not necessarily have experience in the subject, for a first, it was better “, But when Paul thought of making a surprise to his new friend Jean-Luc Reichmann, he told him a secret ” I don’t know if you know, but I’m going to make a big announcement in front of France, your editor called me. » Well, I think it will please Paul “, And asked me to write the preface to the book. I agreed to write the preface to your book, Paul. “ Visibly moved by this gesture, the young man explained what had motivated him to accept to participate in this adventure : “I was able to approach many facets of my existence, alternate the game with my everyday life”.
A book that should So go out at the start of the new school year and fans and viewers of the show will probably be curious to discover in order to better understand the character of Paul, who will have truly marked the spirits and left an indelible mark in the history of 12 noon shots and in the heart of Jean-Luc Reichmann. If he had offered him a work that Paul obviously did not accept, the famous presenter and host of TF1 had nevertheless wished to continue helping his protégé by participating in the writing of his work which seems so important to Paul.
A way for the young man to explain how he feels about his illness and this incredible experience he will have lived in becoming in a few months a real star, thanks to this game The twelve noon shots, and his extraordinary success as a candidate. A young man so endearing that Jean-Luc Reichmann cannot bring itself to present a special evening or an extraordinary event of Twelve noon shots without calling on him, and paying homage to him each time. A nice story of friendship born on the television sets of Plaine Saint-Denis during the recordings of Twelve noon shots which has fascinated viewers daily for more than 10 years today.
