Chapter 129: Fantasy Talent Asks for Subscription
After all the contestants arrived, the media conference of "Chinese Idol" officially began.
Chief director Li Dongtian led the original "American Idol" production team to appear at the press conference, after all, it is a program that has bought the copyright, and the original production team will assist "Chinese Idol" in the production of the first three episodes.
"The contestants will undergo three days of closed training, starting from July 9th, every Friday at 9 o'clock in the evening, we will broadcast every schedule of "Chinese Idol" live around the world!"
At the press conference, in addition to the top 60 contestants in the country, the high-profile members of the judging team also appeared one by one and met with the media.
There are a total of three judges, all of whom are well-known singers, music producers, and TV producers, and will also invite front-line practitioners in the industry to join in the future.
"In addition to the professional judges, we also randomly selected 35 public judges to participate in the TV recording!"
"Of course, in order to be fully fair, our "Chinese Idol" competition will use SMS to count votes, and the audience in front of the TV only needs to use mobile, China Unicom, and PHS mobile phones to send text messages to support your favorite contestants, and you can participate in voting!"
"We will prepare 500,000 cash and several digital DVs for each episode, and draw mobile phone voting users on the spot for distribution!"
The reporters at the scene exclaimed, it is worthy of Shonan Satellite TV, it is really a big deal!
But it is worth mentioning that sending SMS is not free, such as mobile phone users send SMS for 1 yuan each, Unicom and PHS users because they are partners of the program group, each only charges 0.5 yuan, and all fees are collected by the operator.
With the current popularity of "Chinese Idol", it can be expected that this income alone will be astronomical.
The reporters sighed one after another, and sure enough, capital is unprofitable and cannot afford to be early.
These cash and prizes are not worth mentioning at all compared to the TV viewership in hundreds of millions.
Subsequently, there was a free interview session, where Zheng Qian and other contestants asked questions from the media and answered some hot questions one by one.
"Yu Wei, I heard that the movie "The Great Sage" sent you an invitation to audition, is it true?"
Everyone looked at the contestant Yu Wei.
A young girl with short hair nodded and said, "There is such a thing, but because I want to participate in the "Chinese Idol" competition, I pushed it down." ”
The expressions of the people around him were a little regretful.
"The Great Sage" is a very popular mythological movie that has been hyped recently, with an initial investment of more than 70 million, telling the story of defeating the Buddha Sun Wukong after 500 years of learning scriptures from the West for a little girl to make trouble in heaven again, and the little girl in it is the role that Yu Wei wants to audition, which can be said to be the absolute heroine.
In order to participate in "Chinese Idol", she turned down a movie that might have starred in it, so you can imagine how much sacrifice Yu Wei made.
Even Zheng Qian was a little impressed.
Zhang Guoran, who had been sitting next to him, whispered to Zheng Qian: "Yu Wei is a seed artist of Huaying Media, with excellent talent, and was poached from a small company by Huaying Media at a high price half a year ago, which was very sensational at the time...... This "Great Sage" is also a movie led by Huaying Media, you taste, you taste. ”
Zheng Qian was happy and said to Zhang Guoran: "You know a lot!"
"That's a must! I will send a nickname: Jianghu Bai Xiaosheng!" Zhang Guoran stroked his hairline and said very angrily.
Zheng Qian looked at Yu Wei who was sitting in the middle, although she was also a star player in the East China Sea Division, but in fact, the East China Sea Division was a super region, and the strong were like clouds, so the quota for recording "Happy Camp" yesterday did not give Yu Wei's share, but gave Yu Qianxi, who was the most popular in the East China Sea Division.
Yu Wei is well-rounded, it is said that she is proficient in acting and singing, and her talent is relatively balanced.
But relatively speaking, Yu Qianxi is better in singing, and during the audition, the exposure rate is very large, and the accumulated fans are also very large.
Zheng Qian only paid a little attention and stopped asking, especially after knowing that the other party was an artist under Huaying Media, he had no interest in paying attention.
But Yu Wei seemed to feel Zheng Qian's gaze, and when she looked at Zheng Qian along the way, she found that Zheng Qian was not looking at herself, and there was something strange in her heart, and her eyes flickered for a moment.
Soon, the launch ended.
The 60 contestants will be settled in the building's dormitory, where they will receive special training from the music directors for the next three days, and then begin rehearsals for the live broadcast.
Each of these players is actually a little arrogant and pretentious in their hearts, after all, they are the pride of heaven who stands out from hundreds of thousands of competitors, and it is inevitable that they will be a little arrogant to this day.
Therefore, when I settled in the dormitory, except for some people who were familiar by nature, they were basically in a state where no one liked to take care of anyone.
Zheng Qian was the same, but he was not arrogant, but used these three days to write songs well.
Wan Feng of Universal Music spoke to him on the phone in the morning, asking him to quickly compose the last five songs, and now is the time when Zheng Qian's popularity in Hong Kong is skyrocketing.
Zheng Qian also lived up to Wan Feng's expectations, and had written two songs before falling asleep yesterday, namely "Walking on the Road of Life" and "The Love of My Life", and then felt that the songs in the album were too dull, and remembered the popular "Red Sun" in Hong Kong, so I got up in the middle of the night and wrote a song "Flower Messenger", which was not good when I wrote it.
After getting up this morning, I was dazed, remembering last night's arrangement, and suddenly felt a lot more energetic, and hummed "Trouble Song" again when I washed.
It's good, the four songs are ready, and the last one is still missing.
He remembered what Wan Feng had asked him for in the morning.
Universal Music signed a rookie female singer, with a very beautiful voice and very recognizable voice, and has not yet made her official debut, hoping that Zheng Qian will be merciful to write a duet song for men and women to pull a newcomer.
Zheng Qian couldn't help but complain in his heart, am I not a newcomer?
So for the sake of the publisher's face, the last song "Break Up with Good Intentions" also appeared.
However, "Trouble Song" and "Good Breakup" only have drafts, and the specific lyrics and songs have not yet been written.
Therefore, after settling in the dormitory of the building, after placing the clothes in the suitcase, Zheng Qian began to lie on the desk, humming and writing at the same time, and directly entered the realm of selflessness.
Yu Qianxi, a player who was assigned to the same dormitory, was a little stunned when he saw Zheng Qian working so hard.
is also a singer-songwriter, Yu Qianxi feels a little ashamed of herself at the moment.
Alas, it's no wonder that people are so popular......
Damn, people who are better than you work harder than you, what qualifications do you have not to struggle!!
So Yu Qianxi also struggled to take out a pen and paper, sat at another desk, and began to follow Zheng Qian's example to write and draw.
It's just that the inspiration is too lacking, and the chords written are like a bunch of ghost drawings......
When he looked up, Zheng Qian was still writing like a god, so he felt even more inferior in his heart.
"Brother, Brother Qian!"
He couldn't help but cautiously ask, "Do you have any creative experience?"
Zheng Qian responded, still immersed in the lyrics, and only reacted after a while, raised his head and smiled: "What do you think?
This is the jack-of-all-trades answer.
But it's also the most practical answer.
Yu Qianxi is nineteen years old this year, looking at Zheng Qian's eyes and gradually worshipping.
That's what his teacher said!
His teacher is a professor at the Tokai Conservatory of Music!
Sure enough, the simplest is the most profound.
So in the next three days, in addition to the dog-legged Zhang Guoran, Zheng Qian followed another Yu Qianxi by his side, and the servants ate and studied and went to the toilet almost like a shadow, and other people who watched it talked about it.
"Is this an alliance?"
"Zhang Guoran is just that, he and Zheng Qian are friends originally, Yu Qianxi is the hottest player in the East China Sea Division, and he has also fallen?"
"Zheng Qian is too strong, he has a lot of fans, and his popularity is almost the highest in the training camp, I feel like the protagonist of those networks, I was shocked, and the spirit of the king escaped, and Yu Qianxi surrender......ed in an instant."
"To be honest, I also want to share a dormitory with Zheng Qian......"
"I want to too, my skin is white and my legs are thin ......"
"Gross!"
The more Yu Qianxi came into contact with Zheng Qian, the more he felt that this big brother was strong.
Especially when I was just in class, no matter how high the music director's piano tone was, Zheng Qian's treble was as high as it was, and when I started the test again, from the lowest note to the highest note, Zheng Qian suddenly rose sixteen keys!
The audience was shocked!
This is also because Zheng Qian's own bass is average, and he can't detect the lowest sound, otherwise, it will rise more fiercely!
But even so, Zheng Qian's treble in the entire training camp is also gorgeous, which can be called a glance at the mountains, and those players who claimed to be invincible in the treble before, but almost all of them who wanted to challenge were broken.
The music directors also had a deep impression of Zheng Qian, and every time they used Zheng Qian as a template to teach, warning everyone to look up to Zheng Qian: "Look at Zheng Qian's ......"
In addition, Zheng Qian's lung capacity and professional trills and falsetto are proficient in making the directors feel trembling.
"This TM is a living king-level singer!"
"It's so mature, it's really a pot meat that has debuted for many years!"
"It turns out that the back pot meat is also very fragrant!"
"On the real-time popularity list of Cool Burn Music Network, Zheng Qian has not fallen first since he was on the list, which is terrible!"
"I searched the Internet for news in Hong Kong, and Brother Qian's "Humble Son" album has been sold out in Hong Kong, and it has been liked by many fans!"
"I also found the link on the Internet last night, I like "I Really Love You" the most, it's so good!"
""Red Sun" is now at the top of RTHK's song list, it's amazing!"
"This is an idol!"
Yu Wei listened to the whispered discussions of the other contestants, and her heart was a little complicated.
During the class, she frequently looked at the many players around Zheng Qian and Yu Qianxi who were kicking in the practice room, her lips were clenched, and she didn't know what she was thinking.
It wasn't until the end of class that Yu Wei finally mustered up the courage and walked in front of Zheng Qian: "Brother Qian, get to know me, my name is Yu Wei." ”
Zheng Qian looked up at Yu Wei and smiled: "Hello." ”
Then he continued to bow his head and discuss the issue of singing and vocalization with Yu Qianxi and others.
The others around them felt that something was wrong, and the discussion gradually became quieter.
Yu Wei instantly felt left out, and she was a little anxious in her heart, and blurted out: "Brother Qian, I know that you have a gap with our company, but although I am an artist of Huaying Media, the decision-making of the company's top management has nothing to do with me, and I will not listen to them and go against you, so you shouldn't look at me with colored glasses......"
The air was quiet for a moment.
Everyone looked at it.
There was surprise and strangeness on people's faces, and even Zhang Guoran was a little puzzled, this TM is suffering from persecution paranoia, right?
Zheng Qian looked left and right for a moment, and then smiled at Yu Wei and said, "Isn't it okay for you to say such things publicly?
Yu Wei clenched her silver teeth, and her eyes quickly turned red: "Then you, just now, why, ignore me......"
Zheng Qian looked strange.
At this time, Yu Qianxi quietly said to Zheng Qian: "Brother, don't pay attention to her, she has been treating me as an opponent YY when she was in the East China Sea Division, and she has said several times that I look down on her, and one day I will regret it or something, you say that this person, who usually likes to watch the messy YY, just forget it, but if you have to bring it into reality, you don't know what to do in YY all day long......"
