came to the café as promised, Shao Xiaomin was already waiting there, I haven't seen her for a few days, Shao Xiaomin seems to be more beautiful again?

The wound on his forehead seemed to have healed, and with the light foundation, he couldn't see it at all.

Seeing Zhang Liang's arrival, Shao Xiaomin also got up and smiled at Zhang Liang.

Copyright or something is simple, Shao Xiaomin directly took out a document and asked Zhang Liang to sign a name or something, it seems to be an application form or something, the content is about the copyright application of "The Masked Singer", this seems to need to be submitted to the relevant departments for review, once passed, it can be regarded as a successful copyright registration.

Then there is naturally a contract about copyright authorization, since the copyright is registered by Zhang Liang, then Xihang Satellite TV naturally needs Zhang Liang's authorization to make this program, and all this is because of the existence of Liu Xinlan.

It's just that Shao Xiaomin originally wanted to use this concession to get Liu Xinlan's concession, but unfortunately in the end, Liu Xinlan still didn't agree to her request, and Shao Xiaomin didn't rush for a while, at least she now knows where Liu Xinlan is, not to mention the existence of an intermediary like Zhang Liang, so there will be opportunities to contact in the future.

After these things were done, Shao Xiaomin asked in detail about some details of "The Masked Singer", such as the setting of the stage, the requirements of the sound equipment, the effect of the stage lighting, and the competition system, the guests, etc., all need to be asked clearly, if there is anything wrong, the two will discuss it carefully, and finally let the stage leaders review it.

And Zhang Liang's "The Masked Singer" is not a Chinese version of the parallel world, nor is it a stick version, Zhang Liang deleted the two versions, as the so-called remove the chaff and take its essence, he wants to make a "The Masked Singer" that is more suitable for this world.

These things can actually be easily solved, and Shao Xiaomin's biggest headache at the moment are two problems: funds and players.

For such a star talent show, the appearance fees of the guests and contestants alone are a very exaggerated number, plus it is a singing program, even if the stage lighting is a little worse, but the sound must not be the second.

The current variety shows are becoming more and more in the direction of a big production, like "The Voice", which claims hundreds of millions of production costs, so the naming fee is naturally outrageously high, but because it is very successful, "The Voice" is no longer a problem in terms of funding, after all, it has already responded.

But "The Masked Singer" is still just a newborn baby, and no one knows what its future holds. It is unknown whether the huge capital investment can get the due return, not to mention that such a show is not a well-known planner who came up with it, and as a star talent show, it even has to compete in a masked manner, which undoubtedly greatly reduces the effect of celebrities.

So when Shao Xiaomin said this idea, although it made people's eyes shine, they were not very optimistic about it, and they always felt that the investment would be wasted.

Who would be interested in watching a masked star sing? and not know who he is?

But what they don't know is that this is the essence of this show.

is also because of incomprehension and disoptimism, even if it is the wealthy Western Airlines Satellite TV, the funds approved in the end are only 30 million, not even a fraction of the good voice, how can this not make Shao Xiaomin embarrassed.

Not to mention the stage sound effects to buy equipment or something, whether the 30 million is enough is a problem, not to mention that there are so many guests, 8 per issue!

For such an unpromising variety show, it is naturally more difficult to advertise investment, and the highest naming fee found so far is only 45 million.

As for the players, that's a bigger headache than money. A problem that can be solved with money is not a problem, but this is a problem that cannot be solved even with money!

The reason is simple, because the rules of the game are: the one who loses, must be uncovered!

This made some people who were originally eager to try it back in an instant, because they didn't want to lose this person.

Eight per issue, except for the first issue, there will be a singer king who will be left as the defending king to meet the challenge of the next singer, and the next issue is to eliminate eight, facing the results that may be unspared, especially to uncover the identity of everyone, which is undoubtedly a shame for artists.

It's a shame that you're not as skilled! This is not a problem that money can solve!

Not to mention those artists, even Shao Xiaomin also thinks that this rule is a bit exaggerated, this is definitely a humiliation for the contestants, even if the appearance fee is more, how much can it be? Even if you are given millions, you have to exchange it for a lifelong shame, which everyone knows is not cost-effective.

In such a situation, even if you are willing to come, it is estimated that you are just a person who doesn't care about face or shame, and just wants to cheat some money and leave, it is obvious how much singing skill such a person can have, and this show will obviously not accept such a contestant!

So originally Shao Xiaomin wanted to discuss with Zhang Liang whether the contestants could choose to change the unveiling link to the contestants, and they could choose to unveil or not.

In this regard, Zhang Liang obviously disagrees, what is the highlight of this show? It is the unveiling link, and there is not even this final expectation, what else is there to look forward to in this show? Isn't the singing talent show enough? What is the meaning of just singing and not revealing your face?

I don't know who wins, I don't know who loses, I don't know if I lose, Zhang Liang would never watch such a show.

Therefore, in the face of such a problem, it is natural that there is a bit of a difficult rhythm.

However, Zhang Liang is still very confident in this show, he believes that as long as the first episode is broadcast, this show will definitely be popular, and at that time, whether it is advertising investment or contestants, it will no longer be a problem, and how to make the first issue is the most headache at present.

Therefore, Zhang Liang's advice to Shao Xiaomin is: first, tell the station that all the advertising revenue will be used for program production, so that it can be run; second, the contestants must show enough sincerity, and also show that the show will be popular, and their participation in the show will definitely be very beneficial to them; third, the choice of the contestants is naturally to find the kind of singing well, the key is to make people shine, preferably cross-border or have retired, so that it is easier to create topics and more gimmicks; fourth, if you really don't move, use a tailor-made classic song as a gimmick, he is willing to write a song for the championship or something。

Although he Zhang Liang is still just a small singer, his ability to write songs is still recognized by many people.

Anyway, that's all Zhang Liang can do, and Shao Xiaomin agrees with Zhang Liang's idea, this competition system is definitely good, especially the interface link, if it is changed, it will indeed be a lot less interesting.

In the end, Shao Xiaomin could only say that he tried as much as possible, and if it really didn't work, he would use all the funds, including naming fees, to make the first issue.

And after Shao Xiaomin left, it was a little surprising that Li Juhe actually called Zhang Liang, and this call was undoubtedly like a charcoal in the snow!
