"The third and fourth places in the first round of competition tonight have been announced, and the next is the first and second place ......"

Liu Silei glanced at the hand card and continued to announce: "This also means that the remaining singers who have not announced their results will lose the opportunity to participate in the second round of competition if they fail to break into the top two."

"Tonight's competition system is quite cruel, but isn't this the charm of competitive music variety shows?

Next, the audience voting of the two singers who will announce their results is very interesting.

In fact, many viewers in front of the screen usually just watch the show silently, and rarely participate in interaction and voting.

However, tonight, the singer made many viewers who had never voted before pick up their mobile phones and vote for him.

And the singer also relied on these awakened audiences to win the first place in the first round of competition tonight.

"Who is this singer?

"Let's congratulate ......"

When Liu Silei said this, she raised her eyes and looked around, and the tail note was very long, and finally shouted out two names: "Congratulations to Fang Xing, Huang Anhua, congratulations to "I Really Love You", and won the lead in the first round of competition.

This song not only won the enthusiastic votes of audiences across the country, but also broke a number of records by the votes of Cantonese-speaking audiences.

"However, Fang Xing can't relax his vigilance yet, because there is still a second round of competition, and whether he can maintain his advantage depends on the performance of the second round of competition."

The results are announced.

The role model singers and assistant singers on the guest seat all had different expressions.

Zhang Huiying's face showed an expression that was really like this.

In fact, before the results were announced, she was not sure who would have the more votes, Tan Zhiguan or Fang Xing.

Because the song "I Really Love You" is indeed very good, but Cantonese songs actually have a slight disadvantage in terms of audience base.

Therefore, the most critical point for "Really Love You" to win is to see whether it can impress audiences in Cantonese-speaking areas.

After listening to "I Really Love You", Zhang Huiying felt touched in her heart.

When she heard the result, she knew that the song had been sung into the hearts of Cantonese-speaking audiences.

The HK Phil also had a glorious era, but most of the fans of that generation have already started families.

The audience of this divided family, even if they usually watch TV, rarely makes comments, barrages and votes, and most of them just watch it silently.

However, the reason why this is so is because it is difficult to impress them with the songs of today's music variety shows.

And the appearance of "I Really Love You" and Huang Anhua awakened their youthful memories.

These audiences who have a certain amount of life experience, if they don't vote, forget it, once they start voting, the power is very terrifying.

Therefore, it is not surprising that "I Really Love You" was able to rank first in the first round.

……

After the results of the first round of competition were announced, the live barrage began to swipe the screen:

[Yes, I actually took the first place. 】

[The combination of Huang Anhua and Fang Xing, I would like to call it Wang Fang. 】

[I only gave Weibo ten minutes of time, and immediately let "I Really Love You" appear on the hot search, otherwise uninstall it directly. 】

["I Really Love You" should take the first place, not to mention anything else, and then 100,000 votes to help the fun. 】

[The trench is inhumane! 】

【Trench Inhumanity +1】

After the live broadcast of the first round of competition, Feifan Entertainment and Penguin Video released a pure version of the first round of eight songs at the same time.

As the audience expected, "I Really Love You" quickly rushed to the hot search on Weibo.

Although it is temporarily at the bottom of the hot search list, the growth rate of the hot search index is very terrifying.

Many viewers who watched the live broadcast felt that listening to "I Really Love You" once was not enjoyable.

After all, some lyrics need to be carefully experienced to understand the meaning.

Therefore, countless viewers poured into major online platforms, clicked on the pure version of the video of "I Really Love You", and played the song repeatedly.

The more the audience listens to this song, the better it feels.

There are also many viewers who have begun to learn this song, and said that this song is easier to sing than "The Difficult Sutra".

Subsequently, major online platforms began to set off a cover relay.

[Can't learn "The Difficult Scripture", can't I still learn "I Really Love You"? 】

……

Some people rejoice, and some people are sad.

At the headquarters of Merlin Records, the senior management of the two major record companies and Pengcheng Capital got together, originally wanting to control the trend of tonight's finals and push Tan Zhiguan to win the championship.

In order to win the first round steadily, Chen Lipeng even released one-third of the ticket warehouse.

Originally, in his vision, Tan Zhiguan and Qi Xiuna sang "Tenderness at the Fingertips", even if they couldn't win the first round, the difference in votes would not be too big.

Therefore, Chen Lipeng thought about releasing one-third of the tickets in the ticket warehouse, which should be stable first, without any suspense.

However, when the results were announced, it was beyond everyone's expectations.

Chen Lipeng suspected that there was a problem with the ticket warehouse, and frowned and looked at the secretary on the side.

The secretary has been following Chen Lipeng for many years and immediately knows what the boss means.

She hurried out to make a phone call to confirm the situation.

didn't wait long, the secretary came back and whispered in Chen Lipeng's ear: "Boss, there is no problem at the ticket warehouse, and a third of the tickets have indeed been released." ”

Xu Liren on the side put forward a guess: "Is it possible that when the votes were counted, the tickets in the ticket warehouse were filtered out?" ”

The secretary replied with an affirmative expression: "No, the tickets in the ticket warehouse are bought with real money, although it is a channel recharge, there is a high discount, but every ticket is costed."

"It's impossible for the producer to filter out these tickets, otherwise the company can file a complaint and refund after the show is over.

"Neither the producers nor Penguin Video can filter these tickets.

"Moreover, I inquired with a friend of Feifan Entertainment, and there is no problem with the number of votes.

"According to the news revealed by a friend, the vote in the Cantonese-speaking area of "I Really Love You" is very high, and it seems that some viewers are watching Huang Anhua's concert and are voting according to the ticket price."

The producer of Merlin Records was more calm, and said in a deep voice: "Actually, when I heard "I Really Love You", I felt that the first round was not very stable.

"However, I still didn't win when I released one-third of the ticket warehouse, which I didn't expect the gap to be so big.

"Although the first round did not stabilize the first place, it is not a big problem, and the second round is the key.

"Winning the second in the first round of competition, winning the second round of competition, and then coming back to win the championship, this script is actually not bad."

Chen Lipeng's expression was very serious, and he asked in a deep voice: "Are you sure about the second round?" ”

Tonight's final, on the surface, is just the final of a music variety show.

However, behind it is the wrestling between the music forces.

Therefore, if Pengcheng Capital wants to continue to expand its influence in the music scene, it must press down Songshi Records.

Otherwise, in another two years of development, Songshi Records is likely to become the new big three, and it will break the Chen family's control over the music scene at that time.

Xu Shangyan tapped his fingers lightly on the table a few times, and replied: "We are very sure of the songs in the second round, in fact, the songs in the first round, because they must be in line with the theme, are limited in the selection of songs.

"The second round was different, there were no thematic restrictions, and there was a lot of room to play.

"The quality of this song that our two companies collaborated on is absolutely fine, as long as there is no problem with the live performance, the second round should be stable."

It is not the first day that Chen Lipeng has met Xu Shangyan.

In his impression, Xu Shangyan is the kind of person who speaks very cautiously, and if he is not sure, he will never use an affirmative tone.

Since Xu Shangyan is confident in the second round of songs, the quality of the second round of songs must be very high.

In fact.

When Mailin Records and Puxiang Records collaborated to prepare songs, Chen Lipeng did not interfere.

He is the chairman of Pengcheng Capital, and his job is to control the operation of the capital, and will not interfere in the music production of the record company.

Therefore, what songs Tan Zhiguan is going to sing in the second round tonight, he has not heard beforehand.

However, since Xu Shangyan has confidence, then he chooses to believe it.

Moreover, there are still two-thirds of the votes left in the ticket warehouse prepared by Pengcheng Capital.

As long as these tickets are released at the last minute, they will definitely be able to change the final outcome.

To be on the safe side, though.

Chen Lipeng still decided to ask the data clearly: "Xu Liren, don't you know the senior management of Penguin Video?" Call and ask to see how bad the votes for the first round of the competition really were. ”

On the stage, Liu Silei only announced the ranking of the first round of competition, and did not announce the specific number of votes.

Therefore, Chen Lipeng wants to know the exact data, so that he can have a bottom in his heart.

Xu Liren nodded, took out his mobile phone and went out to make a call.

There is a relationship with Pengcheng Capital, and the senior management of Penguin Video is very good to speak.

Besides, just asking for a little data, and not asking him to cheat, this requirement is very simple.

This penguin video executive was naturally happy to receive this favor, so he checked the data and told Xu Liren.

Didn't wait long.

Xu Liren returned and said: "The difference in the number of votes is not big, the difference is 300,000 votes. ”

This gap is really not big.

However, the real difference in the number of votes is the real gap by subtracting one-third of the votes in Pengcheng Capital's ticket warehouse.

When Chen Lipeng heard this data, his expression calmed down, and he said: "If there is only 300,000 votes, the problem is not big. ”

He also felt that it was a pity that if he had chosen to release half of the tickets in the box before, he would have won the first round.

However, the second round of the final is the key.

It is also a good choice to keep the ticket and wait until the second round of key time to release it in one fell swoop.

Chen Lipeng thought for a moment and instructed the secretary: "In order to ensure that nothing goes wrong, call and ask them to fill up the ticket slot." ”

The secretary reminded: "Boss, if you want to increase the number of votes now, you can't use the channel discount, you can only buy it at the original price." ”

Chen Lipeng nodded: "It's okay, fill it up." ”

"Okay, I'll do it." The secretary said yes and went out to do something.

……

The other side.

The top management of Turquoise Records is also staring at the data of the finals.

Because of his good relationship with Feifan Entertainment, Liang Yusong can directly get the data in the background.

If you inquire from insiders, it is not difficult to know what Merlin Records, Puxiang Records and Pengcheng Capital are doing behind the scenes.

Qiao Yinghong put down her mobile phone and said: "Mr. Liang, Pengcheng Capital has made up the ticket, depending on what they mean, they are determined to win the championship." Are we going to call? ”

In fact, Liang Yusong also sees the current situation in the music scene very clearly.

If it was before, Liang Yusong would not have fought with Puxiang and Mailin at all.

Because you can't fight.

When he came out to co-stock with Shi Zhenhong to open Songshi Records, he was over fifty years old.

For him, the creation of Songshi Records belongs to a semi-retired state, and he wants to rely on Songshi Records to continue making music.

Before Fang Xing appeared, Songshi Records basically maintained this state, arranging a singer to release an album every year.

Turquoise Records can barely be called in many record companies, but it has never been a competitor to big companies like Puxiang and Mailin.

The music industry also respects Liang Yusong's status in the music world, so he will not deliberately embarrass Songshi Records.

Songshi Records occupies a place in the record industry in this way, not fighting or grabbing, making some money, playing music, and looks like a pension company.

This is also the reason why many singers, after the end of their contracts with Songshi Records, most of them choose to switch to other record companies.

The previous Turquoise Records was in the Buddha of the Buddha.

However, since Fang Xing appeared and joined Songshi Records.

Turquoise Records is like a lion that has woken up and started to rampage through the music industry.

In fact.

Liang Yusong originally didn't plan to make such a big move in the music world.

He signed Fang Xing into the company, although he looked at Fang Xing's ability, but at the beginning, he just wanted to cultivate a first-line male singer to supplement the gap of Songshi Records in terms of male singers.

When he just signed and woke up, Liang Yusong's idea was still the same as before, making music in Buddhism, basically guaranteeing that he would not starve to death, but he also did not consider competing with other large companies.

However, the development of things is contrary to Liang Yusong's ideas.

After Fang Xing joined Songshi Records, he didn't need Songshi Records to compete at all, just posting a song to quickly slaughter the charts.

If you post a song, you will dominate the charts, leaving no breathing room for other record companies.

Turquoise Records was passively pushed to the cusp.

At the beginning, Liang Yusong just felt that it was good to go with the flow.

However, when Puxiang Records, Merlin Records, and the capital behind them took the initiative to come to the door.

Liang Yusong also has a temper, although when he gets older, he doesn't lose his temper anymore, but the opponents are all hitting the door, if he doesn't do something at this time, it's not a Buddha, but too easy to bully.

In any case, he is also a person who has been in the music industry for most of his life, and Liang Yusong also has connections.

It is learned that Merlin, Puxiang and the capital behind it have teamed up to manipulate the voting for the finals.

Liang Yusong made a call to Shi Zhenhong: "Old Shi, you can't just sit and do nothing." Turquoise may be going to the top, what do you think? ”

Shi Zhenhong went from playing music to starting a company, but his temper was actually bigger than Liang Yusong: "Needless to say, I'm ready." You can smash the operating expenses casually, since you are about to hit the top, what is there to be afraid of? Just fight them. ”
