This celebrity is overly enthusiastic!

Chapter 204 Hunan TV: Get away, stop rubbing me!

When the song reached its second chorus, the princess and Harlem Yu pressed the red circular button in front of them one after the other.
As the chairs slowly turned, the stage lights came on fully, creating an exciting atmosphere. The actors and audience in the studio also gave enthusiastic applause to the students who were recognized by the mentors.

The close-up shots clearly show the young male singer's relief after his tense nerves relaxed and his excitement after advancing to the next round.

Watching the princess clapping and smiling at the contestants, and Harlem, with his great sense of humor, keeping time for the singers...
Feeling the joy and excitement that naturally arose within him, Ouyang Changlin knew that the show's ratings would definitely be good.

After a brief introduction and commentary on the performance, the celebrity mentors will make promises to the contestants who have been eagerly waiting to turn around, hoping to persuade them to choose them.

Someone in the office couldn't help but say, "This show is amazing! Choosing forwards and then backwards creates two completely different viewing experiences."

"I've been making shows for over ten years and I find this format very interesting. I'm sure the average viewer will like it too."

"This intense emotional pull gave me a feeling like watching a movie!"

"The carefully designed stage effects gave me a lot of psychological cues, and I believed the production team's slogan of 'quality-first variety show'."

The senior TV station staff in the office stopped chatting about other topics and instead engaged in a heated exchange of views during the second contestant's self-introduction.

Everyone agrees that this show is really amazing!

The second person to appear was a girl from Sichuan named Zhang Liangying. She was simply dressed and had a pretty face.

She sang an English song called "I Still Believe".

As soon as she opened her mouth and sang a line, the eyes of the four mentors seemed to light up instantly, and they all pressed their buttons immediately, as if they were afraid of being a step behind.

This... this person only sang one line and already won over all the mentors?!
Does that mean the four mentors will start vying for this previously unknown contestant?

An indescribable sense of exhilaration rushed to his head, and Ouyang Changlin's evaluation of "The Voice of China" reached a new level.

"Old Qin, you're a vocal expert, is this young girl really singing well? She switched four positions in one go, is she acting?"

Qin, who served as the sound director for last year's "Super Girl" program, listened carefully for a while and remarked:

"Indeed, she's incredibly talented. Her voice is clear, bright, and powerful. Her vocal range, mixed voice, breath control, and resonance are all top-notch."
If she had participated in last year's "Super Girl," she would definitely have won the championship based solely on her raw talent.

The performances of those four mentors weren't exaggerated.

"Holy crap, that's awesome???"

"The young lady has a good image, so wouldn't she be able to make a name for herself in the music industry in the future?"

Yuan Yuzhou signed Zhang Hanyun last year, and this year he's managed to launch so many new singers. It seems the entertainment industry will truly follow Yuan Yuzhou's lead from now on!

As expected, all four mentors gave Zhang Liangying extremely high praise and tried their best to show their sincerity, hoping that she would choose them.

These big stars were so eager to grab the prize that they were practically red-faced, completely abandoning their usual celebrity airs, which was hilarious.

Zhang Liangying's nervousness and hesitation when choosing a mentor were much more obvious than before her performance. In the end, she chose Wang Fei, who also had a very distinctive voice.

The princess was very excited and immediately got off the chair to hug Zhang Liangying.

Emotions, emotions—everything in this show is designed to evoke the audience's emotions.

Ouyang Changlin lit a cigarette to calm his excited emotions.

In the following episode, Ouyang Changlin witnessed the disappointment and desolation of no one turning around after the entire song was sung;
The performance was not outstanding in the early stages, and the mentors shook their heads and were not optimistic. However, the performance exploded in the climax of the chorus, which made the four mentors look at it with new eyes and completely reversed their emotions.

His singing level was close to the mentors' requirements, but the overall performance was rather mediocre, which made the mentors extremely conflicted. At the last moment, one of the mentors turned his chair around for him, and he felt a sense of relief and relief, as if he had escaped a disaster.

The audience sometimes sees themselves as students being tested, and at other times as future stars being fought over by mentors.

While demonstrating their musical expertise, the mentors also showcased many of their own personalities.

Liu Huan is calm and refined, and his comments are insightful; Harlem is funny and witty, has a strong sense of variety, and is good at enlivening the atmosphere.

Both Coco and the princess acted very genuinely and naturally, with Coco being more humorous and the princess being more sarcastic.

With ten contestants, almost every one of them offers a different viewing experience.

After watching the entire 1-hour movie with its interspersed advertisements, Ouyang Changlin lit another cigarette, placed the lighter on the table, and looked at his old friends, some excited and some deep in thought, and said:
"What do you all think of 'The Voice of China'? Dani, why don't you share your thoughts first?"

Long Danni is a veteran of Hunan TV who has worked closely with Ouyang Tai for a long time, and has produced many hit shows.
Hunan TV's current flagship program, "Super Girl," evolved from the variety show "Star Academy" that she created two years ago.

She was also deeply impressed by the quality of "The Voice of China," and stroking her chin, she said:

"It's almost a perfect show, with the mentors facing away from the contestants and using their voices as the sole criterion for judgment."

This model not only eliminates the interference of factors such as appearance, gender, and age on contestants, but also allows the audience to focus on the so-called 'music itself'. It also highlights the fairness and suspense of the competition system, with the mentors and contestants making a two-way selection process, completely different from the adversarial model of traditional talent shows where judges eliminate contestants.
This kind of equal dialogue between celebrities and ordinary people breaks down the hierarchical barriers of traditional talent shows, allowing the audience to clearly feel a sense of intimacy and equality.

Coupled with the top-notch vocal stage that Metaverse spared no expense in creating, emphasizing the ultimate pursuit of musical quality, it would be an injustice if this show didn't become a hit!

Ouyang Changlin nodded repeatedly. Dani's summary was very comprehensive, and she then called out other people.

"The values ​​conveyed by this program are also excellent: fairness, professionalism, dreams, and sincerity. With the good relationship between the original universe and the official, The Voice of China will definitely be praised."

"Sigh, the metaverse always likes to do these table-flipping things."

The TV series "Seven Swords Legend" raised the bar for audience satisfaction with martial arts dramas, and any subsequent dramas made by anyone else would be scrutinized and debated.
The film "The Edge Walker" directly raised the bar for cinematic quality to the level of Hollywood excellence. After that, even big-budget films by renowned directors like Zhang Yimou and Chen Kaige were subject to scrutiny.

Now it's the variety show's turn. He's doing this, station manager, should we increase the budget for this year's "Super Girl"?

"Uh, let's discuss this later. Anyone else have something to say?"

"The Voice of China is definitely more than just a talent show for ordinary people; its promotional effect on the four mentors is also top-notch."
I'm not very familiar with those four people, but after watching one episode, I felt that they were both professional and approachable.

If "The Voice of China" continues, with this kind of promotional effect, attracting other superstars from Mainland China, Taiwan, and Hong Kong to serve as mentors would be no problem at all, and the show's longevity would be astonishing!

The person who had just gone out to answer a phone call interrupted everyone else as soon as they entered the office, clearly surprised, and said directly:

"Director, I just found out that Yuan Universe has not signed any contracts with any players, not a single one!"

Ouyang Changlin's eyes widened involuntarily. So many excellent singers, so many promising stars—what a huge profit that would be! Yuan Universe just watched them slip away?

Is it because they don't know its value?

No, absolutely not. When last year's "Super Girl" was held, even he didn't expect it to be so popular. Everything was done hastily, and the value of the contestants was overlooked.

By the time Hunan TV noticed, it was too late. Zhang Hanyun, the most promising 15-year-old girl, had been signed by Yuan Universe. Chen Yuan couldn't possibly have been unaware of her value!
I don't know what Yuan Yuzhou was thinking, but Chen Yuan's actions were definitely making things difficult for him!
This year's "Super Girl" competition, Hunan TV plans to sign all the promising talents to Tianyu Media with long-term contracts. Only those who are signed can advance; otherwise, why should the production team waste resources to promote them?

However, "The Voice of China" has set a precedent in this regard. If "Super Girl," which also promotes the theme of dreams and hard work, does the same thing, it will definitely be compared to it.

If Hunan TV wants to be the number one entertainment channel, it can't be outdone by a film and television company's self-produced program. As a result, not only will the budget for "Super Girl" increase significantly, but the value of the singers' management contracts will also seem to be greatly reduced.

Damn it! Why is it that in the metaverse, whatever profession someone works in always seems to bring them bad luck?
The princess accompanied her selected contestants to watch the premiere of "The Voice of China," and everyone was extremely excited.

The Metaverse's "The Voice" wasn't filmed in its entirety before being broadcast on television; the initial team formation phase was filmed and recorded intensively.

What followed was a genuine segment of mentor-training sessions, in which Chen Yuan incorporated elements of later idol-training variety shows into the program.

The recorded 'Mentor Selection Stage' was much more engaging than the pretentious selection process of the original.

Given the hefty appearance fees paid to the mentors, shouldn't their talents be fully utilized?
The show is currently in the intense mentor battle stage, with teams competing against each other and the trainees relying on their skills to show off.

"Congratulations, Liangying, you're about to become famous."

The princess warmly embraced the young woman, who was only 21 years old after the New Year. In her opinion, Zhang Liangying was the most outstanding among all the contestants, along with Yao Beina, whose strength was equally formidable.
However, Zhang Liangying also has an excellent appearance and the greatest potential to become famous.

"Remember, before the show finishes airing, no matter who contacts you or your team, no matter how tempting the offer, don't sign a contract, understand?"

Zhang Liangying was breathing rapidly, her face flushed red. She only felt nervous during the recording of the program; she couldn't remember anything else.

But when she watched her own performance just now, all the memories flooded back, and she was so excited that she felt dizzy.

"Sister Fei, then, after the show has fully aired, can we sign Yuan Yuzhou?"

Princess smiled and shook her head. "Yuan Universe is the referee and the platform. Although it also has music brokerage business, Chen Yuan assured me that he would never get involved to help people who came out of 'The Voice of China'."

Everyone present felt regret. They, the contestants, had already deeply experienced the terrifying power of the Metaverse. If they could enter the Metaverse, they would really not have to worry about the rest of their lives!
"But don't worry, after showcasing your talent on The Voice of China stage, Yuan Yuzhou and we mentors will help you find reliable record companies."

Everyone else, don't get excited, calm down and focus on your performance.

The challenges ahead are all tough; let's just go as far as we can.
"The Voice of China" is probably the most glorious and fair stage you've ever been on, so don't waste this precious opportunity.

What kind of future you achieve is entirely up to you.

On her phone, text messages praising the broadcast results and commending her for creating excellent programs kept pouring in. The princess felt that her hard work over the past few months had not been in vain.

Although she found the whole recording process quite interesting.

The format of "The Voice of China" has changed significantly compared to when the production team invited me to be a guest and watch it for them. The cost has also increased by nearly double.

The first episode had a viewership rating of 2.8%. With that result, it's not like we've let down that womanizer's trust, right?
