There are no stars under Shengtang Company now, and those big-name stars will not sign contracts with them for the time being, so Ye Jinsheng is ready to cultivate stars by himself, Charles Sibella is the first singer signed by Shengtang Company, and Liu Lang also wrote a song for her, the name of the song is "God Is A Girl", which is also a popular song all over the world in his previous life, and has won numerous awards.

The lack of stars is a problem, Liu Lang has a large number of pop songs in his head, and these songs need people with different characteristics to sing, so he discussed with Ye Jinsheng and planned to copy the entertainment program "I want to be a star" on Hong Kong Island and name it "The Voice of America" , is to start a singer audition in the United States, and then advance layer by layer, if you can become a state champion, you can get the guidance of a mentor, and then come to Los Angeles to participate in the finals, at that time, famous stars will be invited to serve as judges, and finally select the overall champion, runner-up and third runner-up, these people can become the signed singers of Shengtang Company.

This idea is similar to the current "America's Got Talent", but this show focuses on being funny, everyone has it, and it is a model of national participation, but it lacks brilliance, "The Voice of America" is positioned to select singers, whether it is amateur or professional, people can participate, as long as they can get the approval of the judges, they can advance to the next stage.

This kind of talent show only became popular in the United States in the mid-to-late nineties, and now it is seven or eight years ahead of schedule, plus Shengtang Company is in the limelight, so the fire is inevitable.

Ye Jinsheng had already negotiated a project with Los Angeles Today Entertainment Company a month ago, and the other party was also very interested in this idea, so they hit it off, and Shengtang Company took out five million US dollars to be responsible for the planning, organization and draft of the project, and the other party was responsible for live broadcast and publicity, and the budget for the first episode of the program was as high as 7 million yuan, which was the most expensive draft in the United States so far.

Of course, this plan has not yet been announced to the public, and all actions are being carried out secretly, for which Ye Jinsheng also dug up a large number of subordinates of the original Jingsheng culture, many of these people wanted to develop in the United States with Ye Jinsheng, but at that time, Ye Jinsheng couldn't even see his own future, how could it affect them? So he refused, now it's different, the two songs are very popular, they have sold millions of Hong Kong dollars on Hong Kong Island, Ye Jinsheng crossed the river with a dragon, his career is bigger than the original, his original old team has all run over, Shengtang Music is expanding rapidly, and there is no problem in terms of manpower.

Another month passed in a blink of an eye, and Liu Lang stopped a lot this month, staying in classes at Stanford University every day, and calling him if there was anything in Shengtang Company, but there was nothing to do, that is, the "Voice of America" draft began, and it was advertised on Los Angeles Today Entertainment TV every day, this show invited famous Hollywood songwriters, of course, it costs money to hire these people.

Shengtang Company sent ten draft teams, stationed in ten states, these ten draft teams basically include fifty states in the United States, anyone who wants to participate in the draft can sign up nearby, and after passing the primary selection, they can become official players.

Each squad will have ten official players, a total of 100 people, they will be under the leadership of their respective squad leaders for intensive training, the training time is one month, in this month, different teams will also compete with each other, so that they know each other and improve together.

In a month, ten squads will have a brutal knockout round, and in another month, a hundred players will become thirty, and the draft experience of another seventy will be over.

These 30 people will also have a round of elimination, and finally select 15 singers, all of whom will become signed artists of Saint Tang Music, and these 15 people will also have a grand finals in the Kodak Theater in Los Angeles, and the reward for the overall champion is that Saint Tang Company will immediately customize a song for their students.

The entire draft will take about three months, from July to October, and the whole process will be broadcast throughout the process, so that the audience can see the efforts and improvement of these players with their own eyes, so that they will have a sense of substitution, and even empathy.

Liu Lang also put forward a new idea, that is, the audience can pull popularity tickets for their favorite stars by calling, and the person with the most popularity votes in each round can have some privileges, if this person is eliminated, then the popularity ticket can bring him back to life and become a contestant again, if he is not eliminated, then he will get a mysterious gift, as for what gift is kept secret for the time being.

And the popular ticket king of the finals will also get a contract from Shengtang Company and have a tailor-made single.

Even in a country like the United States, where the entertainment industry is very developed, there was no such a large-scale draft eight or seven years ago, so this is a brand new show, and the people who participate in the draft are ordinary people, which is very close to the public's aesthetics.

The American people, like the Chinese people twenty or thirty years later, have a desire for the profession of star, a chic life and a good income, who doesn't want to have such a life?

But celebrities are high in the eyes of ordinary people, and it is almost impossible to enter this circle without access and connections, even if you have the ability, you have to climb step by step, as good as Michael Jackson, didn't he start as a child star and it took more than ten years to be known by Americans?

And this kind of draft is a shortcut, everyone has the same opportunity, as long as you really have the ability, you have the possibility of getting ahead, once you enter the final finals, you will become a signed singer, and you will be a star in the future.

It's no wonder that the show that can give everyone hope is not popular.

So the show caught the attention of all Americans as soon as it was launched, and Entertainment Today in Los Angeles aired two episodes every Saturday and Sunday, each lasting nearly two hours.

It only took three weeks to become the highest-yielding entertainment program in the United States, with a terrifying 12 percent yield at the peak, and such high ratings naturally made those businesses flock to it, and advertising costs also rose, and most of the costs were recovered in less than a month.

Liu Lang's parents are also obsessed with this show, not only planned by their son, the key is that this show is really good-looking! It's not that the rap songs are good, the most attractive part is the moments in the show that let the contestants reveal their true feelings, and these contents are the guarantee of ratings.

The television was showing the group of ten students in Kansas this week, men and women, black and white, with an average age of about twenty-one, and the group was very popular right now because of a girl named Jessica.
