Chapter Seventy-Six: Youth Singing and Dancing 2
This is the unique and exciting content that makes "Dancing with the Stars" unique and its ratings speak for themselves, with the dance competition reality show reaching more than 20 million viewers since its fourth week, peaking at 22 million.
It became the second largest TV show in the ratings after "American Idol".
In the summer of 2000, "American Idol" and "Dancing with the Stars" jointly dominated the top two TV ratings in North America!
This not only made the faces of many North American TV networks ugly, but also made the Fire Lion TV station after "Who Can Be a Millionaire" and "Noble Son Jon" create its own new trump card program again.
In the North American television market, continue to kill all sides.

When Fire Lion TV expanded its territory on summer TV, Fire Lion Pictures also ushered in the most important movie of this year's summer file - "Youth Musical" 2!
Following the release of last year's "Youth Musical", the production of its sequel has been in a state of great anticipation.
Whether it is the close attention of Hollywood companies or the enthusiastic expectations of ordinary movie fans, the production pressure of the sequel is huge.
And when Sid announced that he would retire as a director and only serve as a producer (in fact, it was just a name), it caused a wave of regret. And when the sequel director used the little-known rookie director Jason Moore, it attracted a lot of doubts and rumors for a while.
Although Jason Moore is inexperienced, the film is still of sufficient quality under the control of the chief producer Nancy Meyers and her team.
The biggest problem with the follow-up movies of "Youth Singing and Dancing Youth" in history is that the focus of the movie has shifted from being close to the feelings and thoughts of young people to a more grand and exquisite singing and dancing scene. With the increased production investment, the pictures and singing and dancing effects of the next two films are obviously much taller.
However, the thinness of the plot and the shrinkage of the story have made the film quality of "Youth Musical" 2 and 3 continue to decline. So after Sid and Nancy discussed, it was decided that the writing of a new script must focus on the creation of villains, not just the protagonists.
In "Youth Musical" 1, it is not only Xia Pei and Ryan who play the role of villains. The narrow-mindedness and established behavior of the school and the society behind it as a whole are the real resistance to the two protagonists' participation in the revue.
In this context, whether it is the members of the basketball team, the members of the science club, or even the father of the protagonist Troy, they have all become "villains" who hinder the protagonist's dreams and love at the right time.
And when such a powerful and all-round villain force appears in front of the protagonist, it will of course resonate with young audiences. Whether it is the misunderstanding and estrangement caused by the protagonists, or their tenacious breaking of secular prejudices, or even the dramatic turn that leads to the transformation of the students themselves.
All of them allowed the young audience to enjoy unprecedented ups and downs, emotional tension and joy, until with the help of transformed friends, they overcame difficulties one by one and finally realized their seemingly impossible dreams and ideas.
Under the seemingly simple plot of "Youth Singing and Dancing Youth", it contains rich content and balances the elements of all parties, coupled with vivid and active singing and dancing elements, and finally achieves the unprecedented success of the film!
But now the question is, what is the next story?
At the end of the first part, the basketball teammates of the protagonist Troy, the science club members of the heroine Gabriel, and even the entire school change their opinions and agree with the ideas and dreams of the two protagonists.
This made the "hostile forces" in the sequel seriously insufficient, and in the original version, Disney's solution was to pull the two siblings of Sharpeth and Ryan out again and play the opposite role. At the same time, elements that are biased towards reality are added, such as college scholarships, Xia Pei's status as a rich girl, and so on.
This has changed the tone of the whole movie, from the direction of dreams, friendship, self-liberation and romance, to the direction of jealousy and realistic pressure. On this basis, there was even a plot to whitewash Ryan and turn Troy into a scumbag, which made the heroine Gabriel almost run away with Ryan.
Of course, Sid would never allow such a directional mistake. With Nancy's help, Sid finally came up with a solution - to make the revue competition the main axis of the film, instead of a summer part-time job. Then, on the "hostile forces" side, Sid and Nancy chose the pre-selected faculty of study at the university as one of the most important hostile forces.
The so-called college pre-selection means that American universities will give priority to those students with special talents, sometimes sports specialties, sometimes academic geniuses, and go to the target high school to inspect the target students, which is the so-called examination of teachers.
Under this line of thinking, the plot of the original version of "Youth Musical" was completely overturned by Sid, and he and Nancy redesigned a new plot - the story is this, during the summer vacation of the sophomore year of high school, Troy and Cred's Wildcat basketball team was invited to Los Angeles to play.
Scouts from the elite schools of the American College Basketball League will also be on hand to watch his performance. It's not just about the Wildcats' performance, it's also about Troy's college admissions and scholarships.
At the same time, Gabriel and Taylor's science club will also go to San Francisco for a national high school science club exchange summer camp.
At the same time, the school revue led by Shapey and Ryan also came to California to participate in the national high school revue competition, and they were full of confidence to win the championship in high schools across North America.
On the one hand, Troy and Gabriel performed well in their respective competitions and summer camps, with Troy leading the Wildcats to victory in the preliminary round. Gabriel, on the other hand, won the attention of a university professor during the exchange.
But on the other hand, ChapΓ©'s arrogance and arrogance made the members of the cabaret troupe, led by Kelsey and Ryan, miserable. Although they won the preliminaries, they met another region, the cool and cool Wang Dog team from the East Coast.
The Wang Dog team defeated their opponents one after another with a cool hip-hop singing performance, and their attitude was extremely arrogant, and how could Xia Pei watch the other party wreak havoc in his own field.
After the match, the two seeded teams had a verbal altercation, which led to a private singing and dancing duel between Shape and the Wanghou team in the streets.
In the duel, Xia Pei and Ryan and others originally performed well, but because of Xia Pei's impatience, they made serious mistakes, and finally failed in their performance and lost to each other. At the same time, the referee of the organizer of the game accidentally discovered this private duel, and the Wang Dog team successfully escaped, but Xia Pei and others were arrested.
