Chapter [058] Semi-finals, sonic boom king
The Chinese Strange Arts Competition has been held for 11 days, and through the publicity of the first two rounds of the competition, this show has become a hot topic on the streets and alleys. The TV station's ratings have also climbed, from the initial 5% to 12%. Sponsors and advertisers flocked to the show, all looking to amplify the reach of their products with the show.
The popularity of the show made the TV station overjoyed, and they struck while the iron was hot and launched tickets for the competition
The third round of the competition, which was not held on television, has been moved to the JAC Stadium. In less than three days, crazy fans snapped up 20,000 door competitions, although each ticket was sold for 100 yuan, but compared with watching movies, tickets for the Chinese Strange Arts Competition are not expensive at all, a movie is generally about 90 minutes to watch, and the Chinese Strange Arts Competition can be watched for hours. In addition, each strange person's stunt is unique and super attractive.
Through the placement of advertisements, the authorization to broadcast the competition, and the income from text messages, plus the sale of tickets, the production team of the China Strange Arts Competition has earned more than 100 million yuan, far exceeding the cost income of 60 million, not to mention the follow-up income.
In order to expand the influence of the program, the TV station also invested heavily in building a luxurious stage in the gymnasium.
It's already seven o'clock on Wednesday night, and in half an hour, the third round of the Chinese Strange Arts Competition will begin.
Originally, the station planned to hold the semi-finals after the semi-finals, but due to the sale of tickets, the TV station decided to change the competition to the semi-finals. Because if it is a top 4 match, eight players will compete on stage at the same time, and the competition of 4 groups of players may end in an hour, the time is too short, and the game is too thin, which is not conducive to the continuous bombardment of the program. In order to enrich the viewing of the program and cause a continuous sensation, the TV station decided to increase the excitement, and 6 of the 8 players will be eliminated, and the semi-finals will be held directly after the top 4.
At the back of the stage, Rory only wears a white shirt and a pair of jeans, looking full of energy.
Gao Tingting broke in with a ghostly smile: "Luo Rui, I have good news for you, my dad bought a thousand tickets for the company's employees to support you, and later, you don't want to disappoint everyone." ”
Luo Rui smiled and pinched Gao Tingting's little face: "So, there are already a thousand fans cheering for me at the scene." ”
"So, you can only succeed, you can't fail."
"Don't worry, I'm prepared! Just watch the show. Luo Rui and Gao Tingting chatted for a while. On the huge stage, the loud voice of the host Tang Xiao began to sound: "China Strange Art Competition, the finals begin, ladies and gentlemen, tonight will be a night to witness miracles, and we invite our eight contestants to the stage." ”
Luo Rui brushed his hair, snapped his fingers at Tingting, and accompanied the other seven players to the front desk.
The huge stage, the lights were bright, the 20,000 spectators around them sat high on the seats, and as soon as the eight contestants came out, the audience burst into warm applause, and the thunderous applause was full of shock.
Luo Rui looked at the heads surging like ants, and a sense of pride surged in Luo Rui's heart, the momentum of the general star concert is similar to the scene, this kind of quasi-star treatment, so that Luo Rui has a feeling of getting ahead, until now, who dares to say that he is just a boiled fish and sells baked cakes.
In the audience, a thousand spectators in white T-shirts, with Rory's name on their backs and light sticks in their hands, shook them together, and thousands of people shouted Rory's name feverishly, while the other seven players did not have this treatment, and Rory suddenly stood out from the crowd.
In the crowd, Gao Zhiyuan and Gao Cheng, father and son, sat at the front with a smile and waved hello to Luo Rui.
Luo Rui smiled and waved his hand to say hello, and the support of the Gao family's father and son made Luo Rui grateful.
"Ladies and gentlemen, dear viewers and friends, since the start of the Chinese Strange Arts Competition, many miracles have been born, attracting many audiences, and our ratings have been increasing, but our program has also been questioned by many people. The so-called real gold is not afraid of fire, and we welcome anyone's doubts. Here are our newly added judges, the first judge is our famous anti-counterfeiting fighter Fang Dashen, please Fang Dashen. ”
In the scream of Tang Xiao, a middle-aged man in a white shirt with half-bald hair walked out from the back of the stage with a smile.
Tang Xiao smiled and shook hands with him: "Hello Fang Dashen, welcome to our show, you are welcome to question or judge any of our contestants on the spot." ”
Fang Dashen just nodded and smiled, walked to the judges' bench and sat down.
"We have asked for a second judge, Miss Sally, a notary public at the Guinness headquarters."
At the back of the stage, a tall blonde chick walked out with her hips twisted.
"Hello everyone! It's a pleasure to meet you all. Sally greeted the audience in stilted Chinese.
Tang Xiao smiled and beckoned Sally to sit down on the judges' bench, and said passionately: "Dear audience friends, Miss Lisa has the most comprehensive record in the world, our contestants are not unique, Miss Lisa will be the best witness." ”
"I would like to invite our third judge, Mr. Wang Jianhao, a notary public from the National Justice Department."
At the back of the stage, a middle-aged fat man in uniform walked out with a smile.
"I would like to invite our fourth judge, Mr. Shen Guolin, Vice Minister of Culture."
A chubby old man in his sixties wearing glasses walked out with a smile, and under Tang Xiao's greeting, he walked to the judges' bench and sat down.
These four judges, one from the Guinness headquarters, one from the Ministry of Culture, one is a fighter against counterfeiting, one is a notary public of the National Notary Office, and the four new judges will correct the names of the contestants of the Chinese Strange Arts Competition. The contestants participating in the competition, whether their abilities are unique, whether they are cheating, the four new judges will give the most direct explanation.
Once again, the original six judges were invited, and the top ten judges were seated, and Tang Xiao announced loudly: "The Chinese Strange Art Competition starts now." ”
"I invited the notary Mr. Wang and Minister Shen to come to the stage to draw lots for the 8 players and select the two groups of players."
The audience applauded thunderously, and the two judges came to the forefront.
"6 and 8."
"Very good, I invite our No. 6 player Mr. Wang Feng and No. 8 player Luo Rui to the center of the stage."
Rory didn't expect to be the first to appear, so he was stunned for a moment and walked out.
"Ladies and gentlemen, our No. 8 player, Luo Rui, is the brightest star of the Chinese Qiyi Competition, and in the second round, Luo Rui defeated the strongest player, Master Xie, and his popularity is high. So what kind of wonderful show will he bring us today? Please wait and see, and please applaud our Mr. Lowry. Although Tang Xiao was unhappy with Luo Rui, but the show came to this juncture, and he didn't dare to use his personal feelings on the show anymore, and cheered for Luo Rui loudly for the first time.
"Rory, come on." Gao Zhiyuan took the lead in applauding, and thousands of employees under him shouted in unison, and the scene was very spectacular.
"Ladies and gentlemen, our No. 6 player, Mr. Wang Feng is from Shencheng, he is a laid-off worker, Mr. Wang Feng has been a fan of martial arts since he was a child, he has been learning qigong since he was 10 years old, he has a soft spot for the 'lion's roar' in the novel, 35 years, Mr. Wang Feng through hard practice and pondering, and finally created the legendary 'lion's roar', Mr. Wang Feng is known as the 'sonic boom king', his voice is full of shock, full of penetration, please Mr. Wang Feng."
Amid warm applause, a 45-year-old uncle walked to the center of the stage.
Tang Xiao smiled professionally: "Both, which of you will perform first." ”
"Mr. Rory, I know your qigong is very powerful, I have seen the first two rounds of the competition, you are very incredible, but today, you will never win me, my sonic boom stunt, there is no second one in the country, I will perform first." Uncle Wang Feng was full of confidence and took the lead in walking out.
Luo Rui smiled: "Uncle, don't talk so badly, who can be on this stage, which one's stunt is not unique." It seems that everyone else has used the ability to repeat except me, and today I am the same, I will not use the ability I used before, and I will make you lose convincingly. ”
"Rory, it's easy to convince me to lose, unless you also use a sonic boom stunt to beat me."
"Uncle, I will do what you want."
