Chapter 66: Black Clouds Crush the City, Lotus Leaves Cover the Sky (I)
According to the original idea of the program team, the finals would have had a "star gang singing" link, and each contestant would be assigned a star mentor, nominally to help sing and canvass for votes, but in essence, it was to build momentum for the show, enhance popularity, create freshness, and facilitate publicity.
The inspiration for this idea came from Zhu Huafeng and Yuan Zixia, and later encountered Yuan Zixia's national tour, and there were some problems with the budget of the program team, so the idea had to be temporarily shelved.
It is an established process for entertainment programs to invite celebrities to stand on the platform, and as for the specific operating rules, they must be flexibly adjusted according to the fame of the show itself and the popularity of the stars, such as Xiangchu Satellite TV's ace variety show Happy Camp, not every episode of the program needs to pay guest fees.
Although the first Supergirl created a popular star like Zhu Huafeng, which has also attracted a period of attention and discussion in the society, the influence of the show itself has not yet taken shape into a phenomenal social event.
Moreover, negative discussions about the show will also discourage those stars from staying on the sidelines.
Despite this, the Supergirl program team still overfulfilled the tasks assigned by the station, and the peak ratings reached 8.5 during the finals, and the viewership share broke 25 points.
Therefore, as soon as the 04 Supergirl ended, Taili immediately gave a new task to prepare for the 2005 Supergirl competition.
After the program team received the task, including the director, they did not immediately cheer, but fell into collective silence.
Although the first Supergirl had such and such problems, after all, the popular king Zhu Huafeng was launched, which sent a group of potential talents to the music circle and opened up new ideas for the talent show, and overall, the 04th Supergirl was a success.
However, it is precisely because of this success that the program team feels the pressure.
If the purpose of holding the first Supergirl is just that the station hopes to slightly increase the ratings of non-prime time, then to be the second Supergirl, there will definitely be higher demands, such as striving for the top three in the ratings in the same period, such as cultivating another topic figure like Zhu Huafeng.
The question is, is it so easy to meet a player with a special identity like Zhu Huafeng?
Because of their personal participation, they know the hardships, and for the staff of the Supergirl program group, they are lucky in their hearts for the success of this Supergirl, in other words, they don't have full confidence to do another issue of the same successful Supergirl.
At this time, Wen Bo, the director of the program group, received a call from Wei Xiaohong, the director of the White Plus Black Studio, who said that she wanted to talk to them about supergirl in 05 on behalf of Yuan Zixia.
Wen Bo couldn't ask for it, so he flew to Jianghai to see Wei Xiaohong in person.
The two chatted for more than two hours in the Tianjie Cafe, and Wei Xiaohong conveyed all Yuan Zixia's thoughts about Supergirl to Wen Bo, and generously recommended "Sing If You Want to Sing" to Wen Bo as the theme song of the show.
As a senior entertainment program director, Wen Bo listened to Wei Xiaohong's series of opinions, which can be described as an eye-opener, needless to say, the coincidence, what he cares about most is the two concepts of "national participation" and "strengthening and refining the promotion system" proposed by the other party.
"We Chinese traditional thinking, like to watch upgraded things, as if in the novel see the protagonist Tong Guò trying to make a little progress, step by step to surpass the opponent, always get a good reading experience." The competition can also refer to this idea, refine the promotion system, and eliminate it layer by layer, so that more people can participate. ”
Wei Xiaohong played on the key points listed by Zixia.
Wen Bo couldn't help nodding and said, "This point is very good, I'll let my team study it well when I go back, Yuan Zixia, is she - studying TV?" ”
"TV director."
"No wonder!" Wen Bo shook his head and sighed: "It's a pity, otherwise I would definitely be recruited into our TV station." ”
"Her original dream was to enter Xiangchu Satellite TV."
"That's even more of a pity."
Wei Xiaohong bowed, then returned to the topic and said: "I thought about Zixia's words for a while, and then I heard your introduction just now, so I have such a summary, do you think it's right." ”
Wen Bo put down his chopsticks and listened to him.
Wei Xiaohong said: "Let's do a grassroots draft, if we want to achieve the participation of the whole people, I think two points are the most important, first, the contestants come from the grassroots layer, so that everyone has the awareness and yearning of 'everyone can become a star'; second, give everyone more rights, so that they can really choose their own stars." ”
Wen Bo clapped his hands and praised after listening: "It's not simple, your studio is really a woman, and the future is immeasurable." ”
"You've won a prize."
"I've been thinking about the participation of the whole people recently, and when I talk to you today, my thoughts are gradually becoming clear, and I should be able to go back and sort it out again, it should be promising."
Wei Xiaohong smiled and nodded.
"By the way, after talking so much, it's all my business, and I want to do something to you, I don't know if there's anything you need help with?"
Wen Bo is such a sophisticated person, since the director of the family personally invited, how could he be purely Lei Feng.
"Another girl named Feng Xiaohe in our studio will sign up for the 05th Supergirl, she has made a lot of preparations, Zixia and I are worried that you won't do it again next year, so come and explore the wind, haha, Director Wen don't mind."
Wei Xiaohong's wording was appropriate and tactful.
"Haha, how can you mind, it's too late to be happy, recently my team has been worried about where to find a popular king like Zhu Huafeng next year, and you gave one here." Wen Bo smiled: "I don't have any worries here. ”
At the end of July 2004, a conversation between supergirl director Wen Bo and white and black Wei Xiaohong became a prototype of the 05 supergirl competition system.
……
"My first movie wanted to be based on a few of us, with an inspirational theme on the youth campus, and the scripts were ready-made, just put together the diaries of a few of us."
One day in August, Deng You, who was brainstorming a new movie script, asked for everyone's opinions in the white and black group.
"It's really interesting, especially Zixia and Sister Feng are now popular." Feng Xiaohe said.
"We don't have to do it ourselves, do we?" Zixia asked.
"Except for Sister Feng, the other three girls are all looking for others to act." Deng Youdao.
"The idea is very good, but I think we still need a main story, this big movie is different from "Cat Friends"." Wei Xiaohong said.
"Well, I'll write the script and then discuss it with everyone."
"Okay, I'm waiting for your good news. Then I will report one thing to you, Mr. Juxing Hehe has asked me to meet. ”
There was silence.
Deng You asked: "They want to buy white and black?" ”
"I can't get rid of this. So I want to confirm your opinion again, because it seems that whether it is Juxing or Wanshi, it is beneficial and harmless to get cooperation. ”
Feng Xiaohe said: "But didn't we say before that we would run independently? I don't understand why they always want to buy us, can't they work together normally? ”
"The last thing vested interests want is the emergence of uncontrollable variables in the current situation, and every time there is such a sudden foreign army, they will either suppress it or recruit and co-opt, and this has always been the case." Deng You's family history naturally allows him to quickly sort out the relationship inside.
"Deng You is right, their pie has been divided, in their opinion, our appearance will either rob their bread, or help others grab their bread, so they will not sit back and watch us grow up like this." Wei Xiaohong analyzed.
"What if we don't bird them?" Feng Xiaohe said.
"If the inducement fails, it is coercion, and if the coercion does not work, it will be cleaned up." Deng Youdao.
"We didn't have to come this far." Zhu Huafeng continued.
"Yes, I'll talk to her and try to find a balance."
"In short, I don't agree to be acquired, this is not in line with our original intention, and once acquired, the rest of the matter will no longer be controlled by us at all, they will slowly eat away at us, assimilation, and at that time, white and black may only be an empty shell." Feng Xiaohe said.
Everyone fell silent, and now the two people with the most right to speak in the group are Yuan Zixia and Zhu Huafeng, they are both in the popular period, if they hinder the development of their careers because they offend the giant crocodile in the industry, it will be unfair to them.
"I think it's good now, we can do what we want freely, and it won't get in the way of them, if it's really like what Sister He said, then what's the point? (smiling)" Yuan Zixia replied.
"Hmm." Zhu Huafeng also replied with a word.
"I'll talk to Mr. Hehe first." Wei Xiaohong said.
……
Unexpectedly, Hehe found Wei Xiaohong, and the first thing he talked about was not to merge with Bai Jiahei, but to invite Zhu Huafeng to star in a costume TV series invested by Juxing, playing the second female lead.
"You should have seen my name on the roster." He He made a gesture to Wei Xiaohong and said, "Help each other." ”
Wei Xiaohong replied with the same gesture, but she always felt that Senior Sister Hehe's move this time was not simply out of mutual assistance within the Qilin Society, especially when she mentioned Yuan Zixia next.
"A movie co-produced with Nangang, I want to give the theme song to Zixia Xuemei." Hehe said naturally.
Wei Xiaohong vaguely guessed something, but still agreed to go back to discuss.
After separating from Hehe, Wei Xiaohong immediately told the two news in the group.
"Break each one?" Deng You reacted quickly.
Yuan Zixia replied directly: "Sister Hong, you can help me reject them." ”
"Not necessarily." Wei Xiaohong hurriedly stopped: "If it is normal cooperation, there is no need for us to treat it differently." ”
"But Sister Hong, I want to rest for a while now."
After the concert, Zixia no longer even had the freedom to go shopping with Bai Yu, and she was really physically and mentally exhausted.
Wei Xiaohong reacted suddenly, and hurriedly replied: "Okay, you rest first, I'll help you refuse." Hua Feng is okay, right? ”
Zhu Huafeng: "I have no problem Sister Hong, thank you Sister Hong!" ”
"Be polite to me."
Three hours after Zhu Huafeng received Wei Xiaohong's notice, someone from Juxing's side made an appointment with Zhu Huafeng alone, saying that he had communicated with Wei Xiaohong and confirmed the details in person.
After meeting, the other party first drew a big cake for Zhu Huafeng, saying that he would train her to become the next jade girl head Yunyun, how to accumulate popularity from TV series, how to jump from a small screen to a big screen, etc.
If this was said by someone else, Zhu Huafeng would definitely think that he was a liar, but the person in front of him was from Juxing, and it was possible.
"These may need to be discussed with Sister Hong, who is our agent." It is impossible for Zhu Huafeng not to be moved, but it is impossible for her to rashly agree behind her back.
The man smiled disappreciably and said, "You are a student of Jiang Opera, and you must also know about the entertainment industry, no company is willing to spend so many resources to cultivate artists for other families."
I'll be honest, the plans I just told you, including the role of the second female lead in the TV series, require you to jump out of the so-called white-and-black studio. ”
"It can't be!" Zhu Huafeng said undoubtedly.
"There is nothing impossible, especially in the entertainment industry, you have to go back and think about it."
Zhu Huafeng got up, looked at the man sincerely and said, "I don't have to think about it, if you really want to cooperate with us, please talk to Sister Hong, in addition, we are not the so-called white and black, we are the white and black studio." Thank you. ”
After Zhu Huafeng finished speaking, he turned around and left, and the person didn't look at Zhu Huafeng, took a sip of the coffee in front of him, with an unknown smile on his face, and said to himself: "Are you simple and good, or are you stupid?" ”
At the same time, another person walked out of the twenty-five o'clock supermarket of the Yuan family, muttering: "Then let's see, there will be a time when you will come to beg me." ”
