Chapter 171: The Music Bank

Especially Zhou Liang Shuyi, she once jumped from wireless to Jiayi, and ambitiously wanted to lead Jiayi to the position of Xiangjiang No. 1 TV station. I didn't expect Jiayi to be a big hole, and there have always been financial problems.

Although her ability is good, she doesn't have the ability to bring Jiayi back to life, and in the end she was forced to resign because of too much expense. Although three years have passed since this incident, it has always been a pimple in her heart.

So when she received Wu Ming's invitation, she would join Star TV so quickly, just to be ashamed.

Seeing the happy looks of the two, Wu Mingwan smiled, and then asked, "How is the preparation of the "Global Chinese Rookie Singing Contest"?"

Huang Xizhao replied: "It's almost ready." ”

"Very good," Wu Ming bowed his head slightly, and said with a smile, "Now we have used "Millionaire" to prove that TVB's "Happy Tonight" is not unbreakable, as long as there is a good program, we can beat them." Therefore, while the momentum is strong, we must take advantage of the victory to pursue. The singing contest is our second attack, and you will definitely do a good job in the singing contest. ”

Zhou Liang Shuyi raised her eyebrows slightly, and said with a smile: "We have a plan prepared by the boss yourself, and we will never fail." ”

Wu Ming nodded, and said: "By the way, in order to strengthen the influence of our TV station in the music scene, and also to promote original Chinese music, you will make another program to promote and comment on songs." ”

Zhou Liang Shuyi's eyes lit up when she heard this, Wu Ming wanted to promote original Chinese music, and she knew it. However, she is not a music lover and has no interest in it. She was interested in whether the show could strengthen their TV's influence in the record industry and among singers.

"Yes, after the boss you wake up at this point. It occurred to me that if we could make a music program and make it popular among the people of Hong Kong, then those record companies and singers would have to come to our TV station if they wanted to promote their songs. We can also ban them from cooperating with wireless and crack down on wireless. Zhou Liang Shuyi said excitedly.

Zhou Liang Shuyi's words are in line with the old saying "heroes see the same". Originally, in time and space, wireless used this method to deal with ATV.

In 1981, TVB produced the program "Golden Songs", interviewed singers and played new songs from the past week, and later held the "Top Ten Golden Songs Awards Ceremony" and set up the "Golden Song List".

When the record company can't do without wireless, wireless has set up a bully clause, and all singers who are on ATV programs are not allowed to be on wireless programs. In order to maintain exposure and win awards, the record company can only curry favor with wireless and prohibit its singers from participating in ATV's programs.

However, the cycle of heavenly reason, retribution is not happy. In this life, this method will be used by Star TV to deal with wireless.

Wu Ming laughed and said: "Mrs. Zhou really understands it at one point, I do use this show to deal with the idea of wireless." ”

Huang Xizhao couldn't help but say, "This is really a good idea." ”

Through a call from Zhou Liang Shuyi, Huang Xizhao can imagine the scene of Star TV holding the lifeblood of the entire Heung Kong Record Company in the future.

Wu Ming said solemnly: "But the main purpose of this show is to promote original Chinese music." You must not overdo it, in order to deal with wireless, let this show deviate from its original track. ”

Huang Xizhao and Zhou Liang Shuyi both nodded.

"We get it. ”

With a deep groan, Wu Ming said seriously: "This program is named "Music Bank", the program is broadcast once a week, every Sunday afternoon, and this program is broadcast in the form of live broadcast. In each issue, some popular singers and groups are invited to sing popular songs in the near future, and these songs are all new songs from them, and they must be original songs. ”

Those who know about Korean entertainment should be familiar with the program "Music Bank", which is known as the three traditional singing programs in the Korean song industry along with "Popular Songs" and "Music Center". These three shows have contributed a lot to the development of K-pop music.

It can be said that K-pop music has developed to the scale that later swept Asia and entered the United States, and even made the U.S. Billboard officially open a new K-pop song chart, taking stock of the highest-grossing Korean songs in the United States and South Korea, these three programs have contributed a lot.

In his previous life, Wu Ming often regretted why there was no program in the mainland like the three traditional Korean singing programs. Since he wants to promote original Chinese music in this life, Wu Ming will naturally learn from some successful examples in his previous life.

In just over a decade, Korean pop music has developed from being ravaged by Hong Kong and Taiwan music and island country music to counterattacking island countries, Hong Kong and Taiwan, and sweeping Asia. Nature is a good place to learn. Therefore, Wu Ming introduced the singing program to the current Xiangjiang, wanting to see if he could make Chinese original music go another way.

Later, Wu Ming explained some of the systems and rules of "Music Bank" to Huang Xizhao and Zhou Liang Shuyi one by one, and made sure that the two of them understood their intentions.

After Wu Ming finished speaking, the admiration in the hearts of Huang Xizhao and Zhou Liang Shuyi spontaneously appeared. Wu Ming explained "Music Bank" in such detail that it has obviously been thought about and perfected for a long time.

Although the two of them are not musicians, they don't care much about the future of Chinese music. But I still feel very admired for Wu Ming, a non-music practitioner, who cares so much about the development of original Chinese music.

However, Zhou Liang Shuyi was a little embarrassed, and said with a wry smile: "According to your intentions, boss, the program "Music Bank" must be very fair, and we can't arbitrarily manipulate those record companies." ”

Wu Ming smiled lightly and said, "Only by maintaining a fair attitude can this show be more influential, isn't it?"

Zhou Liang Shuyi nodded and said: "Also, although you can't manipulate the record company at will, this show is more influential, so that it can have more audiences and better fight wireless." ”

Huang Xizhao also agreed: "Indeed, the main purpose of the boss is to develop original Chinese music, and the main purpose of the two of us is to crack down on wireless. Whether you can handle the record company is not the most important thing. ”

Wu Ming smiled: "It's great if you can understand, then the singing contest will be handed over to you." ”

Subsequently, Wu Ming went to Starlight Records to discuss various matters of the "Global Chinese Rookie Singing Contest" with Huang Zhan, Lu Guozhan, Li Xiaotian, and Gu Jiahui. After all, although this competition is held by Star TV, the four of them are all judges, and their importance is also very strong.
