Chapter 302 The new show "The King of Masked Singer"
The first season of "The Voice of China" is over. It's so popular that it's so popular that it's hard to make money. Torrent can't take it easy and is clamoring to do it again. A big show.
So he promised to come up with the planning plan for "The King of Masked Singer".
"The Masked Singer", this is a music reality show in the same vein as The Voice.
The main selling point is also a return to the essence of music, putting aside all the idol halo.
Its biggest selling point is that all star singers, whether they are kings, queens or expired singers, use masks to cover their faces on stage, so that the audience cannot identify the singer's identity from their appearance. All scoring standards are only based on the singer's singing. .
This form of performance that combines "music + suspense" allows all singers to return to the same starting line under the mask.
Idol singers have lost their halo, and powerful singers have completely exploded without any scruples. Everyone relies on their own strength and singing skills to compete, not relying on appearance or telling sensational stories.
Let music return to its essence.
"The King of Masked Singer" is also a Korean variety show. At its peak, it was able to compete with "Singer".
There were some revisions when it was introduced in China, but unfortunately the changes were not very successful.
In terms of the competition format, in the Korean version, the losing singer reveals his face, while in the domestic version, the winning singer reveals his face. This competition system can only be said to be very strange, and it can be called the biggest failure.
The unveiling of the singing king who wins every issue is a ridiculous suspense. After the unveiling, the singing king directly waits to participate in the semi-finals. This is not only a huge blow to the ratings of the program, but also At the same time, the singer's exposure has been reduced a lot.
The winner has no chance to sing, but the loser has the chance to continue singing. This setting can only be said to be full of imagination, and it is completely opposite to the original arena system.
After all, what the audience wants to see is a more exciting showdown, not novices pecking each other.
As for the mask, the Korean version is obviously more exquisitely designed. From the mask to the clothes, it is basically impossible to tell who the singer is, let alone guess who it is, and even the male and female cannot be distinguished.
The kind that even my parents can’t recognize.
The domestic version is a bit perfunctory. Some even have only half of the mask, showing half of the face, arms and legs. It is commonplace. I don’t know if I am deceiving the audience or myself.
Overall, this is a failed adaptation.
Xu Nuo took a comprehensive look and restored the original reveal mechanism. The loser can reveal his face or choose not to reveal his face. The choice is in their own hands.
Strict requirements were made on the costumes and props, with the main character being unrecognizable to anyone, keeping the suspense until the end.
As soon as the plan was presented, Hongliu immediately expressed his approval and beat his chest loudly, indicating that he wanted the plan.
“As for the planning fee, do you choose the first or the second option?”
Hongliu was suddenly in trouble. The Good Voice planning fee department took out 100 million, which is called A physical pain.
In the end, the torrent took away the plan, saying that it would take a collective decision before a decision could be made.
In the conference room of Shanghai TV Station, a group of leaders sat around Hongliu.
Everyone has a planning plan for "The King of Masked Singer".
"The Voice of China" has been over for more than half a month, and the popularity has almost disappeared, which makes the leaders in the station feel like they have nothing to do.
After eating delicacies from mountains and seas, and then eating dregs, it is inevitable that it will be hard to swallow.
You must know that "The Voice of China" has ranked first in ratings for several consecutive months. It was so glorious back then, but now it is so miserable.
The show "The Masked Singer" cheers everyone up.
This is another new model. Different from The Voice, The Voice focuses on auditions. Whether it is singing skills or live performance, it is definitely not as good as these long-famous singers.
“This program is definitely another hit. It allows singers to lose their halo and speak only from their voices. It is an upgraded version of The Voice, and it is more interesting.”
“That’s right. , if we can invite some big-name stars to reveal their faces, the traffic will be unimaginable.”
“We can let the singers intentionally imitate famous stars in the first few issues, and then the audience will guess. It’s not him.”
Everyone was very excited. Those who could sit here were not ordinary people. They quickly mastered creating suspense, touching the porcelain, and whetting their appetites.
"The Masked Singer" made the decision on the spot.
Budget? Starting from 100 million.
Schedule? Prime time.
Should we avoid other programs?
Not at all.
With "The Voice of China" at the forefront, Magic City TV Station feels that it is terrifyingly strong.
Although more than half a month has passed, everyone is a little excited.
The man is back.
The man who immediately became a god when he planned a variety show for the first time once again extended an olive branch to them.
For the final program planning plan, Magic City TV Station directly chose the second plan, but this time the cost was revised, with the basic planning fee plus revenue sharing.
The program creation team has been confirmed, with Hongliu as the chief director, Xu Nuo as the chief planner, Liu Qun as the chief producer, and Qi Tian as the host.
The original cast of The Voice, this time Xu Nuo refused to be a producer. Being a producer needs to be responsible for the content of the program, but now, he no longer has the energy to take care of this.
The next day, Magic City TV station broke the news.
“Modu TV’s new variety show.”
"A new music variety show is under preparation, and Nuo Yan will serve as the chief planner!"
"The original cast of "The Voice of China" is once again in charge."
"Top production!"< br>
The news was released one by one. Even before the program was broadcast, or even just after the plan was made, it had already created a lot of popularity.
The sponsor's phone call came directly. Sponsoring Good Voice gave them a taste of the sweetness. This time they saw that it was the original team. They didn't even know what the program was, so they expressed their willingness to sponsor and advertise. .
Especially for the naming rights, sponsors are almost vying for them.
It’s a bustle on the Internet.
“What kind of program is it? It’s so mysterious without even naming it.”
“It’s mysterious, appetizing, bad review!”
“No matter what He has so many promises and plans, I am determined to follow this show!”
Half a month has passed and there is no particularly good variety show! Netizens are also bored. Musical variety shows come and go like auditions, PK, or imitation shows.
That’s it, “The Voice of China” has some fun.
“I hope there is something new.”
“As long as it is planned with promises, this show will be a hit!”
The show became popular even before it was aired. Just by releasing some news, it has attracted the attention of countless netizens.
Modu TV Station started to release news like squeezing out toothpaste.
"The new variety show is named "The King of Masked Singer"!"
""The King of Masked Singer" will be conducted in a live broadcast format!"
The live broadcast format has been It has become a new trend in domestic variety shows.
Many people are tired of the show crew's repetitive editing method, where black is cut into white and white is cut into black. What happens on the recording scene is completely different from what is broadcast on the show.
And the pronunciation is serious.
If it were another variety show, it would be fine to just practice singing. After all, the theme is not singing.
But for music programs, sound editing has become an unforgivable thing. Some people even describe these programs as a competition for sound engineers, and the broadcast version and the live version are completely different.
These severely modified sounds make fans think that these singers are very powerful and have strong singing skills.
As a result, when I opened my voice at the scene, oh, everything was revealed.
One by one, they went from being invincible in singing to being at the scene of a car accident, causing their illusions to collapse.
These days, singing is fake, it all depends on tuning, looks are fake, it all depends on beauty, and the face is also fake, let’s experience AI face changing.
The pursuit of authenticity has become a new trend.
Everything in the live audio variety show is real and cannot be modified. There is no on-site audio editing.
The on-site effect depends entirely on switching camera positions to switch stages.
All the singers are real singers and cannot be modified, and there is no post-production beauty treatment.
This is not perfect, there will be flaws, and unexpected accidents may occur.
This live broadcast method also filters out many people who are pretending to be fake.
As soon as the news of the live broadcast came out, it aroused everyone's interest. Everyone loves to watch real things.
As for accidents and flaws in singing, this is normal and there is nothing unacceptable.
Modu TV continues to strike while the iron is hot.
""The King of Masked Singer" - a voice that surpasses China!"
"With all the stars gathered, who is the real king of singers!"
Everything about the program No, the heat comes in waves.
The torrent started shaking people.
"Hello, I am Hongliu, are you interested in participating in "The King of Masked Singer"?"
"You don't have to worry about this. Unmasking is based on personal wishes. If you lose, you can choose Without revealing your face, the program team will not reveal any information.”
“Yes, yes, you need to choose a nickname and create a look. From masks to costumes, you provide a plan and we will design it for you. "
"By the way, we usually prepare a voice changer to hide our identity, but it cannot be used when singing."
However, some of the invitees chose to decline the invitation when they heard that it was a live broadcast mode.
After all, some people sang very well when they were young, but now their voices are not very good, and their singing skills have declined a lot. If they take a direct shot, it will be a big blow to them, which is equivalent to taking off the The last fig leaf.
After several calls were rejected, Hongliu was also scratching his head. This matter is not easy to talk about.
It’s hard to hire kings and queens who have enough celebrity status to care about their feathers. It’s okay to hire them as mentors, either for singing or live streaming. People are not willing to take this risk.
The program team called separately to invite people. Some people were invited to be guests, and some people were invited to be on the jury.
Hong Liu flipped through the list in his hand and suddenly became playful. He coughed twice and said, "Liu Qun, please contact us on these pages. Remember, you must be polite!"
Liu Qun nodded, took it and started. I was on the phone, and while I was on the phone, I suddenly saw another number without a name.
"Director Hong, who is this person?"
"It doesn't matter who he is, just beat him." Hong Liu said seriously.
"Oh." Liu Qun cleared his throat and called.
The phone beeped a few times and was quickly connected.
"Hello, teacher, I am the program team of "The King of Masked Singer" and I invite you to participate in our program. Are you interested?"
Xu Nuo pinched his throat and said: "Yes. Interested."
"What is your name?"
"Secret."
Liu Qun almost died. How could something be kept a secret?
"How old are you this year?"
"Less than eighty."
"..."
"What is your occupation?"< br>
"Self-employed."
Liu Qun doesn't want to ask anymore, just do whatever you want, anyway, everyone on this list can be invited.
"...Are you sure you want to participate in "The King of Masked Singer"?"
"Sure."
