A practice room version of the video only helped the "Women's Orchestra" complete the most primitive accumulation of fame on the Internet, and if you want this women's folk orchestra to really enter the public eye, you still need a formal stage to show. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
Approaching the end of the year, the New Year's Eve parties of various TV stations are actively preparing. At this time, the popular first-line celebrities are competing for resources among various TV stations. At the same time, the New Year's Eve parties of these TV stations are also performance opportunities that those second- and third-tier stars who have not yet reached fame and newcomers who have just debuted want to strive for.
The stage on which Qi Jia Studio's ideal "Women's Music Workshop" officially debuted was at the New Year's Eve party of this kind of TV station. Of course, it's not just any TV station's New Year's Eve party, what Qijia Studio wants to fight for for the "Women's Music Workshop" is the provincial star satellite TV that ranks in the top five in the national ratings.
As a rookie band that has not yet officially debuted, it is undoubtedly very difficult to directly use the New Year's Eve party of Shangxing Satellite TV as the stage for its debut. But with the wide circulation of the practice room version of the video on the Internet, the "Women's Music Workshop" has gathered a good popularity on the Internet, and Qijia Studio at least has a qualification and opportunity to fight for the TV station.
Among the top five satellite TV channels in the country, Qi Jia Studio's first attempt to contact neither the local Yanjing Satellite TV, nor the Zhedong Satellite TV, which had just cooperated with Xiao Yao and Fan Linxuan in the second half of the year, but Xiangnan Satellite TV, which has basically not cooperated with the studio in the past year.
The reason why Shonan Satellite TV, commonly known as Mango Channel, is the first choice is also Xiao Yao's suggestion. And the reason why Xiao Yao suggested that Shonan Satellite TV should be the first choice is because of a person from Shonan Satellite TV, the host of "Everyday Upward", and now the head of the variety show department of Shonan Satellite TV - Wang Yuan.
Xiao Yao remembered that the first time he remembered the "Women's Twelve Bands" in his previous life, it was during the dinner with Wang Yuan after recording "Everyday Upward" on Xiangnan Satellite TV. At that time, Xiao Yao was only more than five years old, and the father and son were participating in the recording of "Where Are You Going, Dad", in order to cooperate with the publicity, the father and son participated in a talk show variety show hosted by Wang Yuan - "Everyday Upward". That episode of the show was about traditional national instruments and Western musical instruments, Xiao Siqi also played the pipa and banjo in the program, and Xiao Yao played the ukulele and played the ocarina.
After the recording of the day, Wang Yuan invited the guests out to dinner as usual, and during the banquet, he sighed that in today's China, the popularity of Western musical instruments greatly exceeds that of traditional Chinese national musical instruments. At that time, it was more than ten years ago, and Wang Yuan was only a fairly senior and excellent host of Xiangnan Satellite TV. Now more than ten years have passed, Wang Yuan has long since retired from the host position and transformed to do behind-the-scenes work. Wang Yuan's transformation is very successful, and now he is not only an excellent program producer, but also administratively, he has also become the general head of the variety show department of Shonan Satellite TV.
Wang Yuan is a knowledgeable and affectionate person, and he also has a strong interest in traditional Chinese culture. Although it was a sentiment more than ten years ago, Xiao Yao determined that more than ten years later, Wang Yuan must still be very interested in traditional Chinese folk music. Then the "Women's Music Workshop" will be on Shonan Satellite TV's New Year's Eve party, and the opportunity will naturally be greater.
Since he is the person in charge of the variety show department of Shonan Satellite TV, Wang Yuan must maintain enough attention and understanding of the dynamics of the entertainment industry. He had already seen the practice room version of the "Women's Music Workshop", and he also knew that this orchestra had a certain popularity on the Internet. He himself is a person who likes folk music very much, and he is also very interested in this novel form of performance, and this orchestra has met the basic conditions for the New Year's Eve party. In terms of personal preference, he is very willing to bring this orchestra to the New Year's Eve party of Shonan Satellite TV.
But as the chief director of Shonan Satellite TV's New Year's Eve party, Wang Yuan also wants to seek more benefits for his program. So in the negotiation with Qi Jia Studio about the participation of "Women's Music Fang" in the New Year's Eve party of Xiangnan Satellite TV, Wang Yuan also put forward some additional conditions, that is, he hoped that Xiao Yao and Fan Linxuan of Qijia Studio could also appear at this year's New Year's Eve party of Xiangnan Satellite TV and participate in the performance.
Xiao Yao and Fan Linxuan are not first-line big-name stars at present, but with their performance in this season of "The Voice of China" on Zhedong Satellite TV, both of them can be regarded as popular figures in the Chinese entertainment industry in the second half of this year. These two champions and runners-up not only joined the same company, but also released their first solo albums after the show. Not to mention Xiao Yao's popularity and the results of his all-original album, Fan Linxuan's current popularity and album results are also eye-catching.
In particular, the song "One Like Summer and One Like Autumn" written by Xiao Yao for Fan Linxuan is not only the cooperation of the champion and runner-up, but also the girl song written by Xiao Yao to meet the requirements of fans. This song alone not only made countless fans who like Xiao Yao also become fans of Fan Linxuan, but also made Fan Linxuan almost the spokesperson of the girl's girlfriend. Her current popularity is not lost to Xiao Yao, who became popular because of the song "The New Lady is Drunk".
Regarding the proviso proposed by Wang Yuan, the representative in charge of negotiation on the side of Qi Jia Studio made it difficult. Fan Linxuan also said that the new album has only been out for less than a month, and she is still in the promotion period, so she should be unbelievable to have such a performance opportunity. Although Xiao Yao said that he was a contracted artist of the studio, even his parents, who were the owners of the studio, did not dare to take over the job for him without his consent, not to mention the staff below? In desperation, the person in charge of the business department in charge of the negotiation could only feedback Wang Yuan's condition to the boss Xiao Siqi.
When the person in charge of the business department of Qijia Studio thought about it, after the boss Xiao Siqi received his feedback, he should have contacted Wang Yuan privately. After all, the two worked together on the show more than ten years ago and maintained a very good personal relationship.
However, this time, Xiao Siqi did not go to Wang Yuan privately, but directly replied to the person in charge of the business department on the phone: "Gu Meng, you wait for a day in Xiangnan, and ask someone from Xiangnan Satellite TV to talk about it the day after tomorrow." ”
"The day after tomorrow? The day after tomorrow is a weekend? Not only the production team, but also the administrative staff, under normal circumstances, people have to take a holiday off on the weekend. The person in charge of the business department called Gu Meng said.
"In special cases, ask them to work overtime. You don't have to worry about the rest, Xiao Yao will come and talk to them directly the day after tomorrow. They all know that Xiao Yao is going to school, and it should be understandable that he only has time to pass on weekends. Xiao Siqi said on the phone.
"Xiao Yao came over to talk to them?" Gu Meng said with some surprise.
"Yes," Xiao Siqi said on the phone, "I told him that Wang Yuan asked him to go to the New Year's Eve party of Xiangnan Satellite TV as an additional condition for the "Women's Music Workshop" to go to the party, and he said that he would go over to talk to his Uncle Wang. When the time comes, let him come to the idea, and you will do a good job of cooperating. ”
"It was Xiao Yao's idea to find Shonan Satellite TV, and he should be able to handle it. If I need to come forward, Xiao Yao will contact me again. But I don't think so. Xiao Siqi finally added.
"It's... All right. Gu Meng said helplessly.
After Wang Yuan heard Gu Meng's words, he was also a little taken aback, but since Xiao Siqi decided to let Xiao Yao be the negotiation representative, Wang Yuan could only accept it. As for the trivial matter of working overtime on weekends, considering Xiao Yao's status as a senior in high school, Wang Yuan said that there is no problem in this regard.
Although he was very impressed by Xiao Yao and had been paying attention to the development of this little demon, since the wedding of Xiao Siqi and Ye Jiaying, Wang Yuan had not seen this little guy for almost ten years. Although Xiao Yao has officially debuted in the past ten years, he has acted and released singles and albums, but he is notoriously not fond of publicity, except for one "Endless Waves", he has never appeared on any variety show for publicity. Xiao Yao hadn't been to Xiangnan for more than ten years, and Wang Yuan was really looking forward to seeing what this little demon had become now.
The two days passed quickly, and on Saturday afternoon, Xiao Yao appeared in front of Wang Yuan on time with Gu Meng and other business department personnel of Qijia Studio.
Wang Yuan has not changed much in the past ten years, and Xiao Yao has been a popular figure who has appeared frequently on TV and the Internet recently. So although the two haven't seen each other for ten years, after meeting, they are also very familiar with each other.
After saying hello, the two sides quickly got to the point. Wang Yuan reiterated the request on behalf of Shonan Satellite TV, that is, there is no problem with the New Year's Eve party of Shonan Satellite TV on the "Women's Music Workshop", but after all, it is a newcomer and has limited popularity, so I hope that Xiao Yao and Fan Linxuan of Qijia Studio, the two recently popular stars, can also participate in this year's New Year's Eve party of Shonan Satellite TV.
"There's no problem with Fan Linxuan's side, she doesn't have a New Year's performance plan yet, it's mainly up to you. After Wang Yuan finished speaking, Gu Meng whispered in Xiao Yao's ear.
"I know, I knew before I came. Xiao Yao nodded.
"Uncle Wang... Oh no, Mr. Wang," Xiao Yao said quite formally, "I have considered this request of yours, but I don't want to talk about this, I have some other ideas, I don't know if you would like to listen to it first." When the two met and greeted each other just now, they called each other Bayi and Uncle Wang, and now since it is a business negotiation, Xiao Yao has put his personal relationship aside for the time being.
"Oh, what do you have in mind? Wang Yuan said with interest. He watched Xiao Yao's performance in "The Voice of China" throughout the whole process, and later learned a lot about the behind-the-scenes production of the show, and knew that many of Xiao Yao's stage performances in the show were designed by himself, and he didn't know what moth he came up with.
"Don't you want me, Fan Linxuan, and the three groups of artists from our studio to participate in your New Year's Eve party together?
"You mean that Chen Chen, who just released a single not long ago?" Wang Yuan frowned and said, "With his current popularity, it is actually not enough to participate in our New Year's Eve party." To be honest, with the ratings of our New Year's Eve party, many celebrities take the initiative to participate. I actually really want to let the "Women's Music Workshop" on our New Year's Eve party unconditionally, but I can't make a word in the stage. I came to you and Fan Linxuan to let you bring this "women's music workshop" to balance the popularity of the stars participating in the party, so that I can be justified in all aspects. But if Chen Chen is also involved, I'm afraid you will have to find one of your parents to balance. ”
"I don't need to look for them, I promise that just the four of us will definitely be the highlight of the party. Xiao Yao said, "You said that the original plan was to arrange for our three groups of people to perform at the party, how long was it? Or is this time, put these times together, the total length of time remains the same, we four groups of people will perform, I will design the program, and I will review it for you when it is over." It is guaranteed that the ratings at that time will not be affected because of Chen Chen's appearance. ”
"What do you mean by designing the program yourself?" Wang Yuan said strangely, "Isn't it just singing and playing musical instruments, you want to design the stage effects yourself?"
"No, I mean I'm going to connect the performances of the four of us. So you either want all four of us or you don't want any of them, and without one of them, the performance will look incomplete. Xiao Yao smiled.
"So you're going to package and sell these four groups of you?" Wang Yuan said with a smile.
"So to speak. Xiao Yao nodded with a smile.
"Okay, then give it a try," Wang Yuan nodded, and then continued, "Originally, the three of you were allotted time for five songs, of which you and Fan Linxuan each had two songs, and one song for "Women's Music Workshop", so the total duration should be about twenty minutes. You just arrange the show according to this time, and we wait to see the effect when we rehearse. If Chen Chen's part doesn't work well, I'm going to take down his show, and you guys will honestly perform according to the four songs and one tune we arranged. Also, no matter how you arrange your show, your song "The New Concubine Drunk" must appear. ”
"Yes, but I won't appear as half male and half male as I did in the finals of "The Voice of China". Your New Year's Eve party is live, and I don't just perform one song, and I don't have time to remove makeup and change clothes in between. Xiao Yao emphasized.
"Okay. Wang Yuan thought about it for a while, and finally nodded in agreement. In fact, according to his original plan, he really wanted Xiao Yao to reproduce the stunning half-ancient costume Tsing Yi and semi-modern boy's appearance at the New Year's Eve party of Xiangnan Satellite TV. As for the issue of removing makeup and changing clothes? Separating Xiao Yao's two songs would give them enough time to remove makeup and change clothes, and even if Xiao Yao only performed one song, it would be acceptable for them to give up the time for the other song to the "Women's Music Workshop" and let them play one more song.
