Chapter 399, the third mentor is confirmed!
Magic City, Sky Media.
This is the third time Tang Jiuxin has come here.
The purpose of his visit was to meet He Shan, the vice president of Sky Media and the agent of the diva Le Daiqi.
After the first two meetings with He Shan, Tang Jiuxin had already said all the conditions for inviting Le Daiqi as a mentor, and this time he was waiting for He Shan to nod.
"Mr. Tang, when will your show start recording?"
He Shan sipped tea with a smile, and there was a gaze behind his glasses that made people unable to see through his thoughts.
"Mr. He!" Tang Jiuxin said with a smile, "According to the current progress, the studio will be renovated in mid-April, and as for the official recording time, it may be in May." ”
"May?"
He Shan frowned, "That can't be done? From May to August, Qiqi is going to tour the world, and you know, she is married now, so she has to take care of her family, right? ”
"What do you mean?" Tang Jiuxin asked tentatively.
"It's better to start recording in April if you can do it quickly. He Shan said, "I haven't participated in the draft competition! I haven't been able to participate in it, don't look at the whole dozen issues, it seems to be a long time to choose, in fact, it's like an exam, it can be determined in a few days, isn't it?"
"But ......"
Tang Jiuxin smiled and said, "The studio can only be done in mid-April, and all aspects of this show must be considered, and the other mentors have negotiated it, and the recording will start in May, if this is temporarily changed, it is not appropriate, right?"
"What's inappropriate?"
He Shan frowned, but his eyes rolled, and he asked again, "Who are the mentors you have signed?"
"There is ......"
Tang Jiuxin subconsciously prepared to speak, but this was a matter of program confidentiality, and as long as He Shan did not sign the contract, he would not be able to know who the specific four mentors were.
laughed at the moment, "Hehe, Mr. He, aren't you embarrassing me? But I can tell you that one is the godfather of the Chinese music scene, and the other is also a diva." ”
"Yo he!" He Shanle said, "You Jiangsu and Zhejiang Satellite TV are rich enough?"
Tang Jiuxin waved his hand: "Hey, this is a joint production with Tengfei Video, and they also have a part." ”
"Then I know!" He Shan put down the teacup, "I also looked at the conditions, although they are good, but ...... Our treatment can't be worse than the other three mentors, including the appearance fee!"
"This ......" Tang Jiuxin also listened to it, although Le Daiqi is a diva, can she compare with Hong Na? In terms of qualifications, can she compare with Lu Zongjian? This still requires the highest salary? What kind of thing?
"Mr. Tang!"
He Shan pressed step by step, "If you haven't thought about it, then let's talk about it next time! I'm busy!"
"Mr. He......" Tang Jiuxin's eyes narrowed, "Are you driving me away?"
"Oh, I really have a meeting!"
He Shan looked at his watch with a fake look, "Oh, don't talk about it, it's really too late to say it! Otherwise, you can rest for a while? You can leave whenever you want, of course, it's best not to go, I'll invite you to dinner in the evening!"
"Hehe, since Mr. He is busy, then we will leave first!"
Tang Jiuxin stood up, "No need to send it." ”
After that, Tang Jiuxin turned around and left.
He Shan watched him leave the office, and shouted from behind, "Go slowly! Secretary Li, send Mr. Tang for me!"
Coming out of Sky Media, Tang Jiuxin's face was gloomy.
"What the hell!"
He cursed, "Don't be ashamed, look down on the new show? Look down on Jiangsu and Zhejiang Satellite TV? Hmph! We'll see!"
Something similar happened to the other three mentor candidates.
In recent years, Jiangsu and Zhejiang Satellite TV have ranked fourth and fifth in the national satellite TV in terms of ratings, influence, and annual income.
A few years ago, they relied on their own variety show "Extreme Run" to reach the top of the ratings every Friday night.
But now it's not good, other stations have rushed up with new programs, outdoor reality shows, celebrity travel programs, etc. occupy half of the sky, and Jiangsu and Zhejiang Satellite TV is very passive.
In addition, "The Voice of China" is a new show, and it is a talent show that has long been rotten on the street, and those big-name stars are scratching their noses, while the slightly lower ones are in the wait-and-see stage and refuse to join easily.
A week later.
Jiang Lun finished filming all the scenes of "Captain Earth", and successfully completed it, returning to the capital from Los Angeles.
Before him, expensive audio equipment was also registered in Huaxia, but it was shipped directly to Hangzhou.
The busy stage work has also become a part of Jiang Lun's life, and he is also stationed in Hangzhou to supervise and direct all the work of the studio.
The "Voice" program group has been established, and it is also a team that seeks innovation and change, and many ideas have been put forward in the decoration process.
Jiang Lun naturally accepts good ideas, after all, it is the "Voice" of this world, some distinctive logos, or new ideas that keep pace with the times, can be absorbed in the show.
At noon, the renovation workers sat in the studio and ate a boxed lunch.
Jiang Lun didn't open a small stove either, and ate with the people in the program team backstage.
Halfway through, Tang Jiuxin came in with a few staff members.
They also looked tired and tired, took a boxed lunch and mineral water, sat down at the table, and began to sigh for a long time.
Tang Jiuxin picked up the lunch box and sighed, "What kind of world is this, I am also the director of the program production center of Jiangsu and Zhejiang Satellite TV, these stinky agents, relying on a few big names in their hands, don't give me any face." ”
"Didn't negotiate it again?"
Jiang Lun took a sip of water and asked slowly.
Tang Jiuxin glanced at him, "Jiang Lun, why don't you come!"
"I'll help you talk?" Jiang Lun glanced at him, "You can also say it, what are so many people in your superstar culture doing?"
"No, I'm asking you to be a mentor!"
Tang Jiuxin said, "I want to think about it, among the most suitable candidates to be the mentor, you must be there!"
"I'll forget it!"
Jiang Lun waved his hand, "I'm almost the same as being a director, being a mentor? I have to participate in this show before and after, including the landing audition, and I have to follow up, let me be a mentor?
"Yes!"
Tang Jiuxin nodded, very much in agreement with Jiang Lun's words.
However, he really couldn't figure out who to choose.
At this time, Jiang Lun leaned over and said, "Mr. Tang, let me recommend someone to you!"
"Okay, okay!"
Tang Jiuxin nodded again and again when he heard this, "You say, you say!"
Hong Na, who was recommended by Jiang Lun before, readily agreed, and Lu Zongjian, although it was not recommended by Jiang Lun personally, but it was also based on Jiang Lun's face.
Jiang Lun smiled and said, "I recommend, Teacher Cai Qingguo!"
"Cai Qingguo?"
Tang Jiuxin was stunned, "This ...... Can he do it?"
Jiang Lun said: "What can't be done?"
Tang Jiuxin thought about it, but was still a little worried: "He is a singer in the system...... Uh, a singer, and a member of the Army's Art Troupe, and now an associate professor in the Department of Military Arts and Music, can you come?"
"Hum hap hum!"
Jiang Lun stretched out a finger and shook it, "Mr. Tang, you have to be conscious! You have to move closer to the organization! With his participation, it will be convenient for us to speak in many departments above this program." Besides, how many talent shows has Mr. Cai Qingguo served as a judge? Over the years, he has basically relied on this to increase his performance in the army's art troupe, and he has relied on this to eat, and people don't just sing military songs, but also sing a lot of popular songs? Since we are "The Voice of China", we must tolerate and accept more and more voices, right?"
"Yes, yes!"
Tang Jiuxin suddenly opened his mouth and nodded again and again.
In the eyes of young people, Cai Qingguo may be a physical singer, but in the eyes of the common people, he is a frequent visitor to CCTV's Spring Festival Gala every year, and like Liu Nan, he has become the spokesperson of CCTV songs and New Year blessing songs.
He also represents a voice in the Chinese music scene, and in terms of qualifications and connections, if Cai Qingguo can come, it will definitely be like a tiger.
However, Tang Jiuxin also had concerns, "Can he come?"
"Why not?"
Jiang Lun said, "Move with affection, know with reason, I believe that Mr. Cai will definitely agree." ”
"That'...... I'll give it a try!"
Tang Jiuxin is really afraid of rejection, he has never encountered so much embarrassment since he became the director, of course, he didn't need to go out in person in the past, and the people he personally went out were all first-line stars, and there was still a big gap between them and the ones he invited this time.
Thinking about it, Tang Jiuxin picked up his mobile phone, booked a plane ticket, and then ate a boxed lunch in three or two bites, got up and said, "Let's go, I'll fly to the capital and invite Teacher Cai in person." ”
……
……
Capital.
General Political Art Troupe.
Five o'clock in the afternoon.
After Tang Jiuxin got off the plane, he went straight here.
Cai Qingguo, a star in the system, is different from those who are generally stars.
In them, there is always an aura of mystery shrouded in them.
Just like Cai Qingguo himself, he has been the lead singer in the choir of the Beijing Children's Palace since he was a child, he was admitted to the Chinese Opera Performance Department at the age of 14, and participated in the CCTV Youth Song Contest at the age of 18 and entered the General Political Art Troupe.
He doesn't have an agent, if you want to find him to participate in the show, you have to communicate with the art troupe, generally speaking, the probability of him agreeing is very high, but the possibility of the art troupe agreeing to put it in is not high.
Tang Jiuxin also dragged on several layers of relationships, and looked for a lot of people before he met the head of the art troupe.
The head of the troupe is also a sketch actor, in the nineties, he and Kuai Dahe's sketches accounted for half of the CCTV Spring Festival Gala stage, but since he was raised, he rarely appeared on the stage, but occasionally made cameo appearances in some movies and TV series.
After all, the current art troupe is not like the past, since the transformation, self-sufficiency has accounted for a large component.
"Captain Kim!"
As soon as they met, Tang Jiuxin stretched out his hand with a smile on his face, "Hello, hello! I have always seen you on TV, but today I finally got my wish in reality." ”
"Hehehe! You are Director Tang of Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Taiwan!"
Jin Yibing asked with a smile, "I heard Lao Yao say, do you want to find Cai Qingguo to be the judge of the new show?"
"It's a mentor!" Tang Jiuxin said with a smile, "Head Jin, let me tell you more about our show?"
"Okay!" Jin Yibing stretched out his hand to make way, "Let's go, let's talk." ”
"You please!"
The two walked into the regimental office, and the layout inside showed the demeanor of the soldiers everywhere.
After taking a seat, Tang Jiuxin took out the information of "The Voice of China" and chatted with Jin Yibing in detail.
Jin Yibing is also an entertainer, and unlike those regiment commanders who play with pens in the army, he still has a certain keen awareness of the TV market.
Just like this talent show, they have always been very supportive and willing to cooperate, but there must be negotiations in this, many new members have been excavated from major TV auditions in the past two years, and the actors needed by the army art troupe are completely different from the actors needed in the entertainment industry.
In general, the army still needs that kind of party-type and atmosphere-type actors, who pay more attention to singing strength and on-site interaction, and do not pay much attention to the appearance of actors, let alone idol actors who do not have the strength to rely on popularity.
After listening to Tang Jiuxin's introduction to the program "The Voice of China", Jin Yibing was a little excited.
"Just listen to the song and don't look at the face? Can this kind of draft be successful?"
"Of course you can!" Tang Jiuxin said, "The current competition in the performing arts market is very fierce, but many powerful singers are always fighting for popularity in the market, and they can't compare to some popular idol singers, which is sad, as a member of the entertainment industry, of course, we hope to do our best to dig up machines and cultivate real singers, and establish a good order for the younger generations in the entertainment industry." ”
"Well said!"
Jin Yibing was very happy, and even couldn't help but applaud, "Over the years, I have been thinking, why do many people only look at the surface, but not the inside? Those singers who fake sing on the stage, are they really qualified to eat this bowl of rice? No, they are not enough, but those who really have the strength and singing skills are covered with brilliance, and they need the stage to prove themselves." ”
"Head Jin, I think the same as you, this time, in addition to asking Mr. Cai to be a mentor, I also want to pick a few singers in our group who have the strength to sing pop music, let them show their faces on stage and increase their popularity, what do you think?"
"This ......"
Jin Yibing understands very well that if there is a popular singer in the group, how much business will it bring, and if a few more like Cai Qingguo can be cultivated, it will add more honor to the group.
However, he also had doubts, "Director Tang, is this a suspicion of going through the back door? Now that the Internet is convenient, it extends in all directions, and netizens are very good at picking up their skins, you said that Cai Qingguo is from our group, if there are contestants in the show who are also from our group, will this be gossiped?"
"Captain, if you have such doubts, you can also pick people from outside, or after our competition, we can pick people from among the outstanding players, but then it depends on the wishes of others, don't you say?"
Tang Jiuxin smiled lightly, he wished that there would be no people in the group, so that he could free up some more places for those relevant people who still needed his attention.
Jin Yibing is in a dilemma, performance and justice are like two ends of the balance in his heart.
After thinking about it for a long time, he said, "In this way, I agree with Cai Qingguo to serve as the judge of your show...... Oh no, it's a mentor, but your other proposal will be put aside for a few days. ”
"Okay, Head Kim, I wish us a happy cooperation!"
Tang Jiuxin breathed a sigh of relief, the candidate for the third mentor was finally determined. (To be continued.) )
