The birth of this music variety show is to simply give singers a stage, a stage equipped with a top orchestra, allowing singers to perform live and allowing the audience to appreciate the purity of music.
The program process follows the route of stars and professional musicians, a combination of old, middle-aged and young people, and various genres, mainly pop music, are mixed with each other. The main form is still a talent show-style singing PK.
Its value lies in convincing the audience at the scene and in front of the TV that the essence of a singer lies in singing good songs, not in complicated hype and packaging.
The purpose of this is to allow the sentimental singing voice to continue to be loud and to allow the singer to return to his true nature.
At the same time, it gathered senior singers, mainstays and new generation leaders in the music industry, presenting a music feast to the audience.
The revealed cultural connotation, marketing model, and innovation of the program itself are worthy of consideration and reference by every media person.
From the selection of guests to the selection of songs, it creates an atmosphere for everyone to watch. The suspense during the program is left to the guests, and the viewers enjoy the power to see everything.
The film crew used multi-line narration, simultaneous techniques, and cross-editing, especially the timely interrogation of the opponent's scenes when others were singing. This was no longer an entertainment program, but a psychological warfare.
The singer is reduced to an ordinary person by this program. The interaction on the program is no longer the interaction between the guests and the audience in the traditional sense, but the interaction between the guests.
The TV audience will enjoy God-like omniscience and omnipotence for most of the time, until the final vote is announced, and the position reversal is tortured by a text message on the director's mobile phone.
Its emergence is not a breakthrough in the music industry, but it is a breakthrough in TV variety shows.
This breakthrough first came from an unprecedented respect for music.
In addition to the state-of-the-art music equipment and various types of music masters on site, the subtitles in the lower left corner of the screen when each singer sings in the show, in addition to the original singer, songwriter, and arranger of the song, there are also live accompanists. The name of the hand, this small detail shakes many Yin Zong’s inherent perceptions.
The breakthrough also lies in changing the singer. Through this program, such a life experience, the singer's inner love for music and the passion and resilience to fight for the music dream are completely "excavated" and infinitely amplified.
The on-site sound, lighting and production demonstrated the high standards and refinement of current TV program production, and also incorporated a variety of program formats, including studio singing, full-length reality shows, outdoor filming, etc.
On the surface, the successful use of this panoramic reality show is just a means and external manifestation of the innovative concept of this program. The real excellence lies in respecting the purity of the core of music and its ultimate expression.
Therefore, it will be difficult to copy and follow in the future, and because these innovations have applied for management copyright, unless they purchase the recording rights, they will be the only ones in the world.
Of course, the first session of recording only included the on-site part. The scenes of the previous singers receiving invitations and appearing on stage had been filmed long before Liu Qingshan arrived.
Therefore, the way the singers appear is to open the show with their famous songs.
"Heart Like a Tide" by Yu Quan Brothers, "Broad Sky" by Huang Zhizhong, "Gone with the Wind" by Sha Yongliang, "Waiting" by Huang Qi, "Final Faith" by Shang Wenjie, "The First Snow in 2002" by Dao Lang, Liu Huan's "The Crooked Moon" will appear one after another.
Almost every performance evoked memories from the entire audience. Even many staff members watched the entire performance with tears in their eyes.
These shots were faithfully recorded by cameras, and people knew that as long as this nostalgia existed, the show was bound to become a big hit.
This was mixed with the poor and unfamiliar hosting style of the Yu Quan brothers. The increasingly obvious laughter from the audience once again verified the necessity of such a setting.
Then comes the selection of songs after the singers are in place. Of course, the process design used for live broadcasts is still adopted.
Liu Qingshan has just appeared for the first time at this time. His "hosting style" is both elegant, calm and selfless. He tortures the people in the audience to death and is full of laughter. I believe that he will be officially broadcast in the future.
The audience also felt the same way, but they were reluctant to fast forward a second.
Such a hosting style that makes people both love and hate is both surprising and surprising, because he artificially uses a low and magnetic announcer's voice, and his face matches the composure and rationality of a media person. , and is filled with a sense of youthfulness in her dress.
Thus, Liu Qingshan, who could wear a pair of plain glasses, transformed into a chief director who spoke slowly and was good at making people's appetites when making announcements.
Moreover, the image of a director who is restrained, elegant, but secretly serious and domineering, who is hands-on in every detail, and strict to the point of fussing over all the details, will definitely be the highlight of this music variety show besides the singing part. point.
There were even frequent jokes about his excessive performance, which caused the singer and "manager" to laugh out loud. However, the entire filming process was not interrupted, even though many viewers and staff almost burst out laughing.
Of course Jin Xishan will not appear in the picture. She is a replacement singer who will only appear in the third episode, so her appearance cannot be revealed too early.
In the director's room at this time, she was listening to the complaints from deputy director Hou Taizhang: "When Mr. Liu proposed such forms as one shot to the end, movie-level quality, and complete singing, in fact, our mainland colleagues had never been exposed to it. When he proposed this plot design, our internal meeting committee was almost driven crazy by this novel design.”
Jin Xishan covered his mouth and said with a smile: "He is just like this. He thinks out loud. No wonder your station has been afraid to fully host this program!"
In fact, Liu Qingshan and Xueyu Entertainment are counting on maximizing their profits by "separating recording and broadcasting".
But after all, this kind of thing is an emerging production method, and this TV station has always maintained a good state of cooperation with Liu Qingshan. Only if the TV station itself proposes it can it get a larger share of the share.
"But judging from the results of the current process, he succeeded again!"
"Yes, this effect is beyond my expectation! In fact, I insisted on following him today, and I was just as nervous as you are. Fortunately, so far, everything has been in line with the effect he expected in advance."
"So I just received a call from our director Qi, and I wanted to ask about continued cooperation in the second episode!"
"No, we've only filmed half of the first episode. Do you already have an idea for a second season?"
Jin Xishan's surprise was not a pretense, but a real disbelief. After all, the long march has not even taken the first step, and Shanghai TV has decided on the second season so quickly.
But after thinking about it, she understood that the expected effect of this program must not be bad. They chose this time to propose continued cooperation, obviously regretting their previous conservative attitude.
Because of the method of purchasing copyright, the proportion of people participating in direct recording is far lower, and the right to speak in the recording process is extremely low.
"I can't make the decision on this matter. You should wait until the recording is completed and talk to Shanzi directly!"
Having said that, Jin Xishan still knows a lot. Liu Qingshan has revealed to him before that Snowland Entertainment can only produce the first two seasons of any program at most, and then stop it when it is good, and then collect profits through patent rights. It is the best way to make money.
One person cannot be a big fat man. Effectively dividing the interests is the most rational business practice. Otherwise, no matter how good the cooperative relationship is, serious differences will arise due to uneven interests. This is not what he wants.
Furthermore, it also frees up time for him to do other things. After all, his main business is film and television dramas, not variety shows.
Hou Taizhang didn't expect to get an answer from her, it was just a small test, and the final broadcast effect had not yet been truly reflected.
So he quickly changed the topic: "I heard that Mr. Liu's initial selection was not smooth? It's understandable. This kind of live PK is rare. After all, they are all old singers who have been famous for a long time!"
Jin Xishan nodded: "He personally went to interview twenty or thirty people. Almost every one of them was a very popular artist. Some of them liked it very much but didn't have the courage to come. So the first artist who can participate in the show is 'kind&am'
p;quot;The second is to have strength. We also adhere to this principle. "
"Yes, after all, this way of competing among famous singers is not acceptable to everyone. During the preparation period of the show, every interested singer was interviewed by our station and had to answer their questions. It was not easy to resolve all their concerns and finally sign the contract.”
"I have heard about this, and I would like to thank Shanghai TV for its full support to Xueyu Entertainment and Shanzi. Without your prior commitment, at least half of the singers found would not have been confirmed yet."
His words were either true or false. Those who were truly capable and had personal contacts with Liu Qingshan readily agreed, because they knew that this man would not lie to them just to increase the number of people.
For example, Daolang, Liu Huan, and some famous singers who will appear later.
Of course, more people are uneasy. The reason for their uneasiness is not only the competition system, but also the lack of understanding of the novel form of live broadcast separation. However, the recording is completed in full swing, and no platform is willing to accept the order.
So it is very important to get confirmation from the broadcast platform without seeing the finished product. After all, it involves a large investment.
"Shan Zi actually knows it well. Based on my understanding of him, I should value your attitude in the next step of cooperation."
With this in mind, Jin Xishan also appropriately gave the other party some expectations.
Sure enough, Hou Taizhang's expression changed significantly: "One more thing, Mr. Liu, please rest assured that we will never do such stupid things as killing the chicken to obtain the eggs, let alone the short-sighted behavior of eating what is eaten by one person. The attitude of the station is to improve our Shencheng Satellite TV The right to speak. Xishan, I won’t hide it from you. The first episode of this program has just been produced. We have received a lot of wills from all walks of life on the stage. Some of them even our station director feels It’s very difficult to deal with!”
