Not long after Lin Zaishan finished the recording of the regular season of "Extreme World", he received an invitation to "Happy World". Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

The senior management of Haixing Channel launched a human offensive, hoping that Lin Zaishan could go to "Happy World" as a guest, and take the opportunity to promote "The Voice", which is about to take over "Extreme World".

However, the recording of "Extreme World" was too hard, and Lin Zaishan had just finished the recording here, so he really didn't have the energy to record other programs.

Besides, he still has to preside over the audition of "The Voice", there are many commercials, new songs to be filmed and recorded, and many business negotiations to be entertained, so he did not immediately agree to the invitation of "Happy World".

But he didn't completely refuse "Happy World", he wanted to take a good rest for a while, and wait for the audition of "The Voice" to be almost done, and when he had no other work at hand, he would record "Happy World".

After entering June, Lin Zaishan's focus shifted to the preparation and production of "The Voice".

On June 1, the audition for "The Voice" officially kicked off.

Haixing Channel has played a lot of advertisements through various channels since mid-to-late May, and Beyond Records has also spent nearly 3 million publicity money for the audition of "The Voice".

According to incomplete statistics, as of June 1, before the audition of "The Voice" kicked off, more than 3,000 music lovers from all over the country had signed up.

It is a huge amount of work to screen out singers with potential and worthy of entering the audition from these more than 3,000 applicants, and China Entertainment originally proposed to send their music team to assist Beyond to complete the first round of audition.

But Lin Zaishan was worried that National Entertainment was playing tricks, so he took the initiative to put this work on the program team and did not let National Entertainment interfere.

The reason why Lin Zaishan is like this is because in the previous propaganda work, Guoyu failed to do what he promised before.

Originally, Guoyu promised to use their big channels to promote the audition competition of "The Voice", but in the end, when it came to the specific work, they came to a bad place, although they also reported on the audition through big channels, but they were all reported in the less important media or the less important pages of important media, and they did not make real and powerful publicity like Haixing Channel, which made Lin Zaishan very unhappy.

Lin Zaishan naturally knows the thoughts of National Entertainment - National Entertainment just wants to put more of their singers on the stage of "The Voice", Lin Zaishan has promised to let the trainees of National Entertainment participate in the audition without limit, so National Entertainment wants to push more trainees to the show through the audition.

If there are a lot of powerful singers in the folk, it will be a big impact on the trainees of national entertainment.

Therefore, within the scope of its limited ability, Guoyu wanted to limit the promotion of the audition of "The Voice", so it did not do its best to promote.

I believe that when they really should push the "Voice" main competition program, they will definitely spare no effort to vigorously promote it, because their artists will account for almost half of the country in this show, if "The Voice" can be successful, their company will receive huge returns.

And the screening of this audition, Guoyu wants to intervene, Lin Zaishan resolutely disagrees, Beyond spent more than 3 million real money to promote the audition of "The Voice", and will spend more money to organize the audition competition in the future, if Guoyu sifts out the potential seeds of the people, then Beyond's money will be spent in vain.

Therefore, Lin Zaishan would rather have a larger workload on Beyond's side, and pay for a professional music team to screen it, and he must not let Guoyu interfere in the screening.

In the end, it was Lin Zaishan who personally went into battle and led a 30-person team with the Caidie team as the core to do the first round of screening of the 3,085 applicants.

It took nearly a week, after many reviews by the music team, and Lin Zaishan's personal decision, they finally selected 242 grassroots music lovers with characteristics and strength among the singers and entered the final audition.

On June 8th, these audition singers came to Donghai one after another, preparing to participate in the on-site audition held at Donghai Gymnasium from the 10th.

In addition to these 242 grassroots singers, Guoyu also pushed 41 groups of trainees to participate in the preliminaries of the audition.

Other music companies, including predator-level record companies such as Arrow Target, Era, and BM, have also pushed a total of 85 groups of new singers to "The Voice" through various channel relationships.

This includes the Zhang sisters.

In the end, there were a total of 368 groups of singers who participated in the preliminary audition.

They will have to fight to the death for 40 places in the main event.

According to the plan, in the blind audition stage of the first season of "The Voice", 60 singers will be selected for the main competition.

40 groups are selected by the sea, and the other 20 groups are determined by various relationships.

According to the previous agreement, in addition to promoting the selected trainees, Guoyu will also send 8 groups of singers directly to the main competition, which accounts for 8 places.

Beyond is sure to send Liu Mengmeng and Zhang Hao to participate, which are 2 places.

Caidie has confirmed that she wants to push Guan Yaling and another 20-year-old rookie male singer Zhao Mingjian on "The Voice". This is another 2 places.

Zhao Mingjian of Caidie is said to be a distant relative of Wu Yifan.

Lin Zaishan has heard this young man sing, he is relatively decent, and he does not have much characteristics.

But since Wu Yifan wants to push him on the show, Lin Zaishan can only sell Wu Yifan's face.

Everyone Caidie has pushed the first sister Guan Yaling over to help "The Voice" increase popularity, now let alone take a Zhao Mingjian, it is to take a person who can't sing on the stage of "The Voice", and Beyond will accept it all.

In addition to National Entertainment, Beyond and Caidie, the era also got 2 internal quotas from Beyond, and wanted to push two newcomers to the show. -- This is a condition attached to "The Voice" to invite Zhou Qinghua to be a mentor.

Luo Benxiong relied on the friendship he established with Lin Zaishan in "Singer-Songwriter", and wanted to push two singers from his own music company to the show, but Lin Zaishan politely refused one and only gave Luo Benxiong a place, and the other one he and Luo Benxiong said was to be determined.

A gold medal producer on the other side of the arrow target found Park Dacheng, and through Park Dacheng's relationship, he also got a reserved place from Beyond.

There are also several groups of rookie singers in the archery target, and they need to compete in the main competition through auditions.

All these record companies sent the internal singers, including the two from Beyond, have accounted for 17 and a half of the 20 internal quotas, and that half is the half of Robenxiong's company.

At present, Lin Zaishan doesn't really want another singer from Luo Benxiong's company to be on the show, he is also infiltrating, or fishing Luo Benxiong.

If you can't invite Cantonese singer Chen Deyou as a mentor in the end, then Lin Zaishan is very inclined to ask Luo Benxiong to be a mentor, and if Luo Benxiong is invited, Luo Benxiong will definitely have to bring two singers to the show.

As for the last two and a half quotas, they are empty now, and in the future, there will be more powerful singers in the circle to be determined, and they will use these two quotas.

And the remaining 40 will be determined from the 368 groups of singers who entered the audition.

The audition was conducted in two phases.

The first stage is the rough selection stage, where 368 groups of singers perform live in turn to test their real singing strength.

And see if their characteristics and typhoons are suitable for the main competition of "The Voice".

At this stage, there will be four chief judges on site.

These four chief judges were all personally decided by Lin Zaishan.

Among them, the first chief judge, and the most important music chief judge, is Zhou Dongliao, the gold medal producer of Caidie (two of which Wu Yifan will come to serve as the first chief judge for Zhou Dongliao. ）

Originally, Lin Zaishan wanted to invite Wu Yifan to check the audition, and let Wu Yifan be the first chief judge. But because Wu Yifan's work is relatively busy, it is impossible to spend several days on the scene, so Wu Yifan only set it to be on the first day of the audition on June 10, and sat on the scene in the morning and afternoon to help support the audition and help the program check.

In the next few days of competition, Wu Yifan recommended his right-hand man, Zhou Dongliao, the most qualified producer of Caidie, to serve as the main music judge.

The second judge of the first round of the audition, who is also a musician who mainly examines the singer's singing talent and strength, is Zhao Fang, an independent musician recommended by Diao Yuehan who is not from the four major record companies.

Lin Zaishan has dealt with this Zhao Fang a few times, this guy is a personality musician who is full of music and doesn't care much about other things, and his stomach is very good.

Let him help with the review of the audition, which will be more fair and absolutely professional.

In terms of music, Lin Zaishan will definitely arrange two chief judges, after all, Caidie is a subsidiary of Guoyu and is inextricably linked with Guoyu. Guoyu has spent a lot of effort this time to find ways to send more of their children to the show. With Zhou Dongliao alone as the chief music judge, Lin Zaishan must not be at ease. Who knows if Guoyu has done Zhou Dongliao's work?

And the third judge of the audition, Lin Jae-shan asked Park Dae-sung to personally go into battle to select the singer who is most suitable for "The Voice" and can bring good ratings to "The Voice" from the perspective of TV director.

Park Dacheng often does music variety shows, and he also has a certain music appreciation, he knows better than those pure musicians what kind of singer will have a better effect when singing on the variety show stage.

His vote is also very important.

The fourth review was a bit controversial, and Lin Zaishan called Lu Chen to be a judge.

Lu Chen, this guy, urged Lin Zaishan every day, saying that he wanted to return to the music circle and didn't want to be the boss of Qilixiang, which made Lin Zaishan very helpless.

So he took the opportunity of this audition, Lin Zaishan asked Lu Chen to return to the music circle in earnest, and sit on an equal footing with Boss Wu and Park Dacheng, as the judge of the audition, and help the audition of "The Voice".

Park Dacheng and the others didn't understand why Lin Zaishan let Lu Chen be a judge at first, and musician Zhao Fang even felt that Lin Zaishan was messing around!

In Zhao Fang's opinion, Lu Chen is one of the bosses of Beyond, and letting an outsider interfere in the affairs of the circle like this will definitely mess things up!

However, when Lu Chen was at the audition site and adapted to the venue in advance, after happily playing a god-level drum kit, Zhao Fang stopped talking.

Later, when I asked Zhao Fang, I found out that when Mr. Fat Lu and Lin Zaishan opened a national tour that year, he Zhao Fang was still in middle school!

Talking about music qualifications and strength in front of Lu Chen, he Zhao Fang is really not a person.

Park Dacheng and the others have long known that Lu Chen is not only one of the bosses of Beyond, but also a musician.

Lin Zaishan's previous performance in the finals of "Singer-Songwriter" was all played by Lu Chen.

Lu Chen's drum kit is definitely a must in the Chinese music scene.

But they have dealt with Lu Chen, and they all know that in addition to playing drums, this fat Mr. Lu does not seem to have a very strong appreciation of music, and he is not the type who can say why.

Let such a person be a music judge, Park Dae-sung always feels that Lin Jae-shan is playing with fire.

But Lin Zaishan chose Lu Chen as a judge for his own reasons.

First of all, he must know that Lu Chen is not the material for being a music judge, but the problem is that there are already two music judges in the audition, and it doesn't make much sense to add another one.

This time, it is not so much that Lu Chen is a music judge, but that he is a live audience.

Lin Jae-shan arranged Park Dae-sung to be a judge because he considered selecting students from the perspective of TV choreographers.

And he arranged Lu Chen, the purpose is to choose the most convincing voice from the audience's point of view.

In the end, this show was not made for professional musicians, but for hundreds of millions of ordinary audiences.

There is a difference between the ears of the average audience and the ears of professional musicians.

Professional musicians will pay more attention to the singer's singing methods and skills, and they will also pay attention to the feelings conveyed by the singer's singing voice, and pay attention to the singer's singing appeal.

They will still judge a singer with a professional eye, rather than listening to the song purely by feeling like the audience.

Sometimes the singing voice that the professional judges think is very powerful is not very infectious in the ears of the audience.

This will make the audience have a misunderstanding of appreciation, thinking that these judges are eating? How could such a person be chosen to be on the show?

In order to reduce the existence of this kind of error, Lin Zaishan had to arrange an audience like Lu Chen to hold an important vote in the primary election.

Because there are too many singers participating in the audition, there are 368 groups, and it is impossible for the program team to arrange a long-term large-scale competition to finally determine the winner.

In the end, the rules set by the program group are two rounds of screening system - the first **** audition, to screen out the best singers, as well as weak singers. That is, the two ends of the sieve.

After the first round of the competition, the best singers can directly enter the main competition of "The Voice" without the need for the first round of competition.

And for those singers who are relatively weak, after the first round of screening, they can only say goodbye to the first season of "The Voice" with regret.

The remaining singers who don't slip through will be left for the second round and another round of screening.

Lin Zaishan will personally sit in the second round of screening to select the pearls from this to enter the main competition.

The reason why Lin Zaishan didn't choose the first round was that he didn't want to hear the good voices that could make him excited right away.

He wants to keep the suspense and emotion until the main game.

In fact, the most important of such a two-round screening system is in the first round.

In the first round of screening, only 4 judges all have the green light, proving that the singer can impress the professional music judges, TV directors, and audiences, and they can directly advance to the final competition.

As long as one of the judges does not turn on the lights, the audition singers cannot directly enter the main competition.

This shows how important the selection of the first round of judging is.

Regardless of the major, the first thing to ensure in these four evaluations is fairness.

They are the ones who have the right of veto, and if they are unjust, the singer will not be good for the show.

And Lin Zaishan arranged Lu Chen to be a judge, in addition to choosing a good voice from the audience's point of view, there is a more important reason, that is, he can fully trust Lu Chen.

Except for Lu Chen, the other judges, including Park Dacheng, Lin Zaishan couldn't completely trust them.

You must know that Park Dae-sung also had the move of sending arrows to the main competition before.

In case during the audition stage, Park Dae-sung is also bought, and if he wants to send some related students to the show in the form of auditions, then Lin Zaishan will not supervise on the spot, and it will be easy to have problems.

Now arranging a fat Mr. Lu to sit in charge is a deterrent to other judges.

No matter what Lu Chen says, he is also the big boss of Beyond, and under the eyes of the boss, I believe that the other judges will not do too blatant things.

And Lu Chen is not short of money, love, firewood, rice, oil and salt, who wants to conquer him, it is not so easy.

Only a really good voice can impress Lu Chen.

With Lu Chen taking this pass, Lin Zaishan is absolutely at ease.

The first round of the audition starts on June 10 and ends on June 16, totaling a week.

During this week, the four judges listened to songs and watched plays every day, and their ears were about to hear the calloon.

With the joint efforts of everyone, 32 groups of contestants in 368 groups of contestants won the results of four lights and directly entered the main competition.

The remaining 56 groups of candidates will have to play the second round of the final round on June 17 to make a final fight for the remaining 8 main competition places.

The remaining 280 groups of singers, after receiving Beyond's souvenirs for the characteristics of "The Voice", regretfully left the audition stage of the first season of "The Voice".

On the evening of June 16, Lin Zaishan got the list of 32 groups of students who had been promoted.

He didn't look at the list, but asked Sun Yuzhen to make a statistic for him, counting how many of these students were really grassroots, not pushed by the record company.

You must know that one of his original intentions for "The Voice" was to choose a truly grassroots voice from the people.
