The world of Chinese style creates a prosperous era for girl groups

"HAYA, I know, has a unique style and is relatively niche; I am more familiar with Cao Xuanbin. He graduated from Yancheng Conservatory of Music and is now a singer-songwriter under Butterfly Records; Mr. Tang of Butterfly Records is also an old friend of ours."

"Butterfly Records' girl group "Love Song Group" has also experienced relatively bumpy development in recent years. The name is still there, but the members have changed several times." Director Ouyang also sighed and shook his head.

"It's better than our girl group. Our Blue Moon girl group has long since disappeared." President Shen said mockingly.

"But now our boy band "JY Brothers" is in full swing, Director Hong. This will greatly increase the popularity of our show." Director Ouyang once again shifted the topic to Director Hong.

"Yes, JY is now the number one boy group in the country, and its popularity is undeniable, but we have made arrangements here and it is not easy to break the contract."

"What do you think of this? We will provide five times the liquidated damages to make it easier for you to move here. Cao Xuanbin is owned by Butterfly Records, and Mr. Tang is also a friend. Let's forget it. Which company is HAYA now? I remember it seems to be Wanwan It’s a small company, not in Stone Records.” President Shen looked at his music director.

"If I remember correctly, HAYA signed a record contract with Wanwan Fengchao Music Company." Director Ouyang thought for a moment.

"Wanwan's record company, if it's Mr. Duan from Stone Records, can we still give him some face? Fengchao? That's bullshit!" Mr. Shen obviously disdained a small-scale record company like Fengchao Music.

Fengchao Music Company has a short history. It was founded in 1988 by Yang Jincong, and there were only three people at the beginning.

The company is not only small, but the music style is also relatively niche. Nowadays, Fengchao Company mainly produces Buddhist music; and the HAYA band under it is basically developed in the United States. It does not participate in many activities in the country. Ordinary fans are not interested in this band. Not familiar.

Director Hong pushed up his glasses, "This is not a matter of liquidated damages. Two bosses, our program is actually a business. We should earn a reputation for being honest and honest, so that it can last. Since we have signed a contract with the other party, in principle I still don’t want to break the contract because of money; if I don’t have credit, no one will support me in whatever show I want to do in the future. Do you think so?”

"Director Hong, we also understand the basic rules when working in the industry. Yes, you can't go too far, but sometimes you can still weigh it. There is always a difference between closeness and distance; we, Guona Records, cooperate with Xinan TV and you. Isn’t it more cooperation than Fengchao Music Company? What do you think, we will bear ten times the compensation, or let us go out and deal with Fengchao Music Company?” President Shen looked directly at Director Hong.

"Mr. Shen, you, you are making me a little embarrassed." Director Hong avoided Mr. Shen's gaze.

"Then if that's the case, if the other party gave up on their own initiative, what would you say, Director Hong?" Director Ouyang changed his approach.

"According to regulations, if the other party breaches the contract, we will start an alternative plan. Our alternative singer is actually ready and has signed a contract." Director Hong said bluntly.

Speaking of which, the two CEOs of National Records knew that it would be difficult for their boy band to appear on the "Singer" stage at least this year. It was obvious that Hong Dao was not able to make it.

Then why does Director Hong refuse to give this face? In fact, I still look down on the singing ability of "JY Group". No matter how famous the guests are on the "Singer" program, Director Hong personally checks and invites them. He will only invite them if their singing ability has been approved by Director Hong himself.

Although the singing ability of the tara group is not particularly outstanding, it is better because its songs lead the trend and have a strong sense of the times. Moreover, after appearing on the Spring Festival Gala stage this year, they can be regarded as popular idols in China, so they invited the tara girl group to participate for the first time. The program "Singer".

Comparatively speaking, they have only been popular for two or three years and have few well-known and popular songs. Director Hong doesn't think much of "JY Brothers", the number one boy band in China today.

It is precisely because of Director Hong's rigorous selection of guests that "Singer" has remained prosperous as China's number one music program for more than ten years.

. . .

This week there will be a new singer participating in the "Singer" stage, and netizens are talking and guessing who will be the celebrity guest in the finale.

The Prince of Opera was voted last by the audience for two consecutive episodes, and his inclusion in the "Singer" round also aroused dissatisfaction and criticism from netizens.

"Are all the audience deaf? What else can you do besides singing high notes? Do you know how difficult the aria "The Fickle Woman" from "Rigoletto" is performed by the Prince of Opera this time? He Do you understand how perfect the performance is, how abundant the emotions are expressed, and how precise the skills are? You’re all fucking stupid.”

Although netizens did not criticize who was promoted unreasonably, they all expressed their dissatisfaction with the elimination of Prince Opera, which even triggered hundreds of thousands of comments in support of Prince Opera on the official website of "Mango Super Media". They also expressed their dissatisfaction with the singer who was not selected in the 11th semi-finals. The Prince of Opera returned to the stage to show his support.

Netizens’ protests even triggered a sharp decline in the stock price of Xinan Satellite TV’s online platform. When the market opened on Monday, the stock price of “Mango Super Media” fell by 10% in just half an hour, leading to a trading halt. On Tuesday, it was again suspended within an hour. It was hit the limit within a day.

Then Xinan Satellite TV held an emergency meeting. Early on Wednesday morning, the "Singer" program team officially announced the list of replacement singers for the ninth issue, which immediately attracted screams and crazy likes from fans, and the stock price dropped that day. The downward trend was stopped, and the counterattack growth finally led to the daily limit. So who has such great influence?

The originator of the domestic talent show stage and the number one person in domestic talent shows, Yu Chun!

In 2005, in an era when the Internet was not very developed, Yu Chun debuted as the national champion of "2005 Super Girl"; in the same year, she appeared on the cover of the Asian edition of the American "Times" magazine; in 2006, she released her first music album The album "Queens and Dreams" sold 137 million copies at the end of the year.

Today, more than 20 years later, Yu Chun is already a queen-level singer in the Chinese music scene. No one expected that this year's "Singer" would invite Yu Chun as a guest in the ninth episode. You must know that her influence is enough to win the championship. Yes, even if you participate in "Singer", you should be the first singer to appear in the first episode.

When everyone at Fat Cat Studio learned from the news that the mysterious guest in the ninth issue was Yu Chun, they were also frightened and screamed.

Whether it is Jiali, Minzhi or Zeng Jingyi, they were all fans of Yuchun when they were students. Qinjiali even wanted to apply for Yuchun's alma mater, Shujun Conservatory of Music.

It's a pity that the beauty score was not good enough to pass the exam. Of course, this is a story for another day.
