This morning.

Wang Xiaoqin came to the "Voice" column group on behalf of Violet Home Textiles to sign a sponsorship contract, and the money was 500,000 US dollars returned by the company to Wang Qiang, about more than 4 million RMB, and 3 million was used to sign the contract.

After the 10 million contract, Wang Xiaoqin repeatedly said that the sponsorship fee was too expensive, and finally learned from Lao Zhu's mouth that this advertising fee was the lowest in "The Voice", so she left satisfied.

Seeing that Wang Qiang was empty, Ding Lin, one of the assistant directors, stepped forward and said, "Vice President Wang, there is an audition in the capital later, do you want to go and see it?"

Wang Qiang said: "You go first, I'll come over and take a look at it later." ”

Ding Lin belched, "Then I'll take someone over first." ”

Wang Qiang nodded, "Okay." ”

Back to the office.

Picking up the landline on the table, he dialed the number of Guoxing Trade.

Doodle.

The two voices were connected, and the voice of Lin Jun, the head of the global purchasing department, came from the opposite side, "Hello, this is Guoxing Global Purchasing Manager's Office, I'm Lin Jun, is there anything wrong?"

"I'm Wang Qiang. He said.

"Ouch, Vice President Wang, you can be regarded as a letter. ”

"For the time being, I can't run away in the capital, how are the preparations for the global shopping stores?"

"All of them are ready, a total of 32 more stores have been opened, including three more franchisees, and it will probably start official business the day after tomorrow. ”

"Okay, let me know as soon as there is any situation. ”

Hang up.

Wang Qiang is very satisfied with the company's efficiency, now that the global shopping business is on the right track, Violet Home Textiles has also signed a sponsorship advertisement with "The Voice", he is a little idle and panicked, and decided to go to the "Voice" Beijing audition site to see.

After all, if you want to make the global shopping business a big hit, as well as attract top foreign luxury goods merchants, you also need to use "The Voice".

Scene.

Maybe it was because of the news of "The Voice" that was released, when he arrived, Wang Qiang saw that there were already crowds, all kinds of people, men and women, old and young.

Arrive at the judges' table.

Ding Lin stood up and said, "Vice President Wang, you're here." ”

"Well, come and take a look. Wang Qiang took advantage of the situation and sat down next to a middle-aged mustache at the end.

Ding Lin took the initiative to introduce two musicians invited by CCTV, who are not well-known, but I heard that the strength is good.

Mr. Huang in his thirties.

Teacher Yu in his forties with sharp-beaked monkey gills.

Anyway, they are part of Ding Lin's director team.

Wang Qiang nodded with them, and they knew each other, "A few teachers, I have a lot of work for you." ”

Teacher Yu has a higher status and said with a smile: "Vice President Wang, you are polite, we will strictly control every player, and we will never let the quality of the players be inferior." They all know that Wang Qiang is the first decision-maker of the "Voice" column, plus he is the financier, who is welcome.

Another mustachioed musician said: "Vice President Wang, we don't cooperate with any brokerage company, we can only rely on the audition, and the quality may not be much better, after all, most of the people who come to participate in the audition are non-professionals." ”

Of course, Wang Qiang knows that this is the truth.

Generally speaking, every talent show will more or less cooperate with entertainment companies, so as to ensure that a group of high-quality contestants can take the stage, but "The Voice" is more special, the promoter Wang Qiang is doing trade, and CCTV cannot pull down his face and take the initiative to find entertainment companies to cooperate, so they have no predetermined seed players, and they have to rely on auditions to pick.

But Wang Qiang is not worried.

A music program with such a big production as "The Voice" is definitely a dream debut opportunity for many singers, and besides, the entertainment company is not stupid, if it cooperates with a talent show on the right track, what if you have to pay for it, now you don't need to let its artists participate in "The Voice", as long as the singer is strong, there is a chance to save a lot of publicity opportunities, how can you not send someone to participate?

The player information was thick, and Wang Qiang didn't bother to flip through them one by one, so he said, "Let's start." ”

Ding Lin immediately said to the young staff: "Xiao Liu, call the fifth to come up." ”

Obviously, they had already started before, but Wang Qiang's arrival interrupted the entry into the city.

The youth staff member shouted into the crowd with a megaphone, "Five." ”

A seventeen or eighteen-year-old girl wearing glasses immediately rushed up from the audience, and she was a little nervous after she took the stage and said: "Hello judges and teachers, my name is Deng Jialing, I ......"

Teacher Yu was a little impatient and said, "Sing a cappella." ”

Wang Qiang didn't think there was anything, there were a lot of auditions, how could he have time to let people introduce them one by one, it would be too much time to waste like that.

Deng Jialing hurriedly closed her mouth, took a few deep breaths, and began to sing "The Way You Look" released by Luo Dayou a few years ago.

"I heard someone's voice coming in. ”

"Like the river whimpering in a dream. ”

Wang Qiang felt that her singing was very ordinary and had no characteristics.

Sure enough, Teacher Huang interrupted her singing and said directly, "Okay, you can go back first." ”

Deng Jialing let out a disappointed sigh, knowing that she didn't pass, she turned around and went down.

Number Six is a young man.

sang Zhang Yusheng's "The Sea", unfortunately, he didn't pass it, but he sang it okay, and Mr. Yu was more sorry for his talent, and he also pointed out two sentences.

This makes Wang Qiang more interested, how can the later audition judges have time to guide people, I have to say that the quality of musicians is still relatively high now, like Mr. Yu and Mr. Huang, they are really immersed in music.

The seventh.

The tenth.

Soon fifteen people passed.

None of the contestants passed the hands of several judges who were strictly controlled.

Wang Qiang looked at it and frowned a little, not that he felt that Mr. Huang and Mr. Yu were too demanding, but if it goes on like this, when will the fifty people needed for the blind audition of "The Voice" be gathered?

Taking advantage of the time to call the next player, Wang Qiang asked: "Teacher Huang, Teacher Yu, what kind of player can meet your requirements?"

Teacher Yu smiled and said: "Since the essence of the "The Voice" program is to return to music, our first requirement must be that the voice is distinctive, and it doesn't matter if the singing skills are almost there, it can be cultivated later, but the characteristics are unattainable." ”

Teacher Huang nodded in agreement: "Yes, Lao Yu and I are not bragging, and our singing skills are definitely not worse than many second-tier singers, but why can't it be popular? ”

Wang Qiang said, "You two just haven't come yet, maybe you will seize the opportunity and become popular." In my heart, I agree with the words of the two musicians, why did "The Voice" become so popular later?

Think about it.

The dozen or so contestants just now don't seem to have too many characteristics when singing, and they don't have the feeling that people can remember "what the voice is like" after listening to it.

What a voice.

Where the hell are you?

Wang Qiang was a little anxious about the progress of the audition, and he couldn't wait for a distinctive voice to appear immediately.
