MTL - You Don’t Understand The Pain Of Being Popular-Chapter 105 The first and fifth days of being popular
Yu Yiqing chuckled: "This variety show has spread in our circles. The new variety show launched by Yuehui Entertainment is the same as the fourth season of AXA Entertainment's "Actors PK Tournament". It plans to gain the highest traffic this summer."
Yuehui Entertainment, this company, like Ansheng Entertainment, is an industry under the Lu Group.
However, the field of Yuehui Entertainment is more inclined to the direction of music, which is not the same as that of Ansheng Entertainment.
Also as one of the largest entertainment companies in China, Yuehui Entertainment has a very strong public relations team, marketing team, and a very luxurious lineup of agents.
They are going to launch a new variety show this time, so they naturally plan to make a big splash.
Yu Yiqing said: "I heard that they want to find outstanding talents, so they went to the major music theaters and stage drama teams to find talents, and they really found a lot of good seedlings. Sister Liang, you can also refer to their Road number!"
Only then did Yao Bianliang understand what Yu Yiqing meant.
She sighed and shook her head slightly: "There are indeed many talents in the theater, but none of them are what I want."
Yuehui Entertainment really wants excellent talents, and of course they will go to music theaters and other places. But all she wanted was an unreliable composer.
If this method is really followed, then how can she rush to the street?
Yu Yiqing fell into deep thought: "If you don't look for musical actors, then you can only consider folk masters."
Indeed, this matter is not easy to handle.
The two chatted casually, Yao Bianliang took out his mobile phone and searched the variety show "Best Music Producer" on the Internet.
Everyone is digging for music producers, maybe she can learn a thing or two from the way this show looks for talents?
What came into view was a lot of related articles, and various marketing promotions were overwhelming, making it dizzying.
Yao Bianliang quickly found the information he wanted.
"Excavating Lost Talents, Bringing Hope to the Chinese Music World - The Selection of the Best Music Producer Begins!" "
[This variety show will break the traditional model, discard side details, and return to the essence of music! All selection criteria are based on the quality of the works.
No matter you are a singer, composer or arranger, you can sign up for the competition.
After passing the written test, you can participate in the audition. As long as you sign up, the organizer will give you a rating of S~F and give you exclusive suggestions.
Qualified candidates will successfully enter the primary election, stand under the spotlight on the stage, and start your gorgeous performance!
"Best Music Producer" was jointly organized by Yuehui Entertainment, Lu Group, Kashi Company, and Yixing Studio. 30 authoritative judges and 100 senior professional judges scored in an all-round way.
We are committed to giving every underappreciated music producer a chance to showcase their talent. As long as you have talent, you will get flowers and applause in this variety show.
The audition time is from 11th to 31st, and the quota will be closed when the quota is full.
The best stage is waiting for you! 】
The content of the advertisement is not long, but Yao Bianliang's eyes lit up after reading the whole process.
"This "Best Music Producer" sounds very interesting."
Yu Yiqing was also playing with his mobile phone beside him, and raised his eyes curiously when he heard this: "What's wrong?"
Pointing to the requirements on the advertisement, Yao Bianliang said, "This program actually invites 30 authoritative judges and 100 senior professional judges to rate each contestant."
Music appreciation is indeed highly subjective.
But if each judge is very professional and there are enough numbers, can it represent that such a score is infinitely close to the true level of the work?
Yu Yiqing took a closer look and nodded slightly: "Indeed, this variety show is under the banner of returning to the essence of music, and the momentum is very strong."
"Moreover, the main songs and musical stage plays of their works this time are similar to our song and dance movies."
Speaking of this, Yu Yiqing recalled what Yao Bianliang complained to him before, and seemed to realize something, his eyes widened slightly.
"You don't plan to invite so many professionals to help you screen and screen the songs?" She was stunned.
People's variety shows do this for the sake of gimmicks and traffic.
If Yao Bianliang really wanted to get an excellent song, he might as well ask a top arranger to compose it for her.
Going around such a big bend to pan for gold in the sand? Only a fool would do that!
The corners of Yao Bianliang's lips curved slightly, feeling a little helpless: "Don't worry, I certainly can't ask so many professionals to help."
Such fanfare is too costly and time-consuming, and it is completely unnecessary.
What's more, in front of Yao Bianliang, there is clearly a more direct shortcut——
The variety show "Best Music Producer" will give a rating to everyone who signs up for the competition.
Then why did she bother to investigate and screen?
Just use the ready-made answer directly!
The ratings of the audition range from S to F, and the basic information of each contestant can be retrieved on the official website.
And those contestants who were rated F grade by 30 authoritative judges and 100 senior public judges are not the talents she needs for Yao Bianliang?
In short, she only picks up people she doesn't like on this show.
Yao Bianliang couldn't believe it. After so many professionals screened and screened, how much more capable was the bottom music producer who was finally identified!
"Yiqing, thank you so much," Yao Bianliang said sincerely, "Thank you for telling me such important news. I will cover all our vacation expenses for you these days!"
Yu Yiqing: "...Huh?"
Yu Yiqing blinked in confusion, did she do something worthy of Yao Bianliang's gratitude?
Under Yu Yiqing's incomprehensible eyes, Yao Bianliang looked down at the advertisement interface of this variety show, and silently planned in his heart.
If all goes well, this time, she will not only be able to find a suitable composer, but also a qualified song and dance film actor!
———
"Best Music Producer" audition scene.
Although there is no threshold for registration for this variety show, a certain registration fee is still required, and contestants have to go to the official website to fill out a simple written test questionnaire.
So, to a certain extent, this screens out those who want to try their luck and just sign up.
"Hey, have you finished your marks yet?"
At noon, one of the judges yawned and looked at his companion.
They have to listen to more than 500 songs a day and score hundreds of contestants. Now, the judges feel that they are going to suffer from prosopagnosia.
As for the ability to distinguish good or bad songs, it also began to decline with the passage of time.
"Oh, my ears are getting callused." Another judge sighed and couldn't help complaining.
The average time they allocate to a song is only 1 to 2 minutes.
Later, listening to music has become a programmed thing.
Listen to the beginning, listen to the climax, listen to the ending, and judge the song based on how you feel in just one minute.
No one can continue to remain calm after such a long period of high-intensity work.
"I really don't know what the organizers think," some judges couldn't help complaining, "Let us rate so many contestants in such a short period of time... Do they think that tasting a song doesn't take time?"
If it wasn't for the enough money given by the program group, he really didn't want to continue working.
"Tsk, you don't really think that the organizer hopes to screen out outstanding talents through this method?" An older senior judge shook his head.
"These are just gimmicks. In fact, more than half of the people who can really enter the primary election have already been determined by default."
As for the remaining lucky ones who passed the audition and entered the primary election, there must be those with outstanding abilities and talents.
However, even if these people enter the primary election, they can only become stepping stones for the unspecified players.
They have no background, no marketing team, and the program crew can edit whatever they want.
The image of the contestants seen by the audience is just the image created by the program group through editing.
These people don't have good looks, and they don't have good personality. Even if they enter the primaries and semi-finals, they are destined not to go too far.
The judge who spoke before sighed: "Oh, that's true."
Moreover, the scores given by these judges only account for part of the total score.
The program team will also make a comprehensive judgment on the commercial value of the contestants based on whether they are topical, storytelling, and selling points.
And this score of commercial value occupies a huge proportion of the total score, which directly affects the player's rating.
After all, this is a variety show. Although it uses the slogan of "focus on music and return to the essence of art", it still needs traffic and popularity.
They need to recruit topical players to maintain their popularity.
This is also a common rule in the circle, there is nothing worth talking about.
Several judges chatted for a while, took a short rest, and immediately continued to work.
The stereo continued to play new songs, and the judges wrote down the scores on paper based on their first impressions.
The tracks carefully prepared by the composers were rated in just over a minute.
The scores are handed over to the sponsor's staff.
The staff looked at the "D" rating written on it, then glanced at the contestant's profile, and shook his head expressionlessly.
"Chen Shen, 26 years old, ordinary family, ordinary appearance, no bright spots in past experience, lack of recognition."
There are too many players like this, and they can't be found even if they are thrown into the crowd. They belong to the worst batch.
The staff and their companions looked at each other, silently scored a score on it, and then turned their attention to the next players.
The system quickly calculated the player's final rating—
F, the lowest grade.
