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

Xinan TV studio conference room.

"At present, the main sponsor of the program has been confirmed, and the naming fee is 100 million. Several mentors have also been contacted and can participate in the recording of the program at any time. The members of the audition will be provided by some major record companies. Then I have also linked up with several music colleges and universities, and will arrange some excellent and interested students to participate in the program. The list is currently being compiled, but the preliminary candidates are already higher than the 100 people needed for the program. I am considering whether to conduct a simple audition or directly select people to participate in our program based on the recommendations of the music college teachers. Of course, this depends on the specific number of applicants counted."

Tian Danni reported on the implementation of her variety show "Competition 100" in the conference room.

"Okay, Xiaotian's work has always been meticulous and organized, I am very relieved." Director Wen of Xinan TV gave Director Tian full trust. "Today, everyone knows the news that the provincial TV station Jilin Chemical TV has stopped broadcasting. After 38 years, Jilin Chemical TV has come to an end, and I came from Jilin Chemical TV."

Everyone in the conference room looked at each other in bewilderment. In fact, everyone already knew about the news, as someone had posted the news in their work group.

Before that, more than 700 TV stations in China had stopped broadcasting and more than 2000 had gone bankrupt. The wave of TV station closures has long swept through everyone's lives.

"I'm not very familiar with Jilin Chemical Television, but I believe that Star TV, China Entertainment and Phoenix TV are the memories of many people here." Director Liu, who is now middle-aged, began to reminisce.

Star TV was once a regular TV show for those born in the 80s and 90s. This TV station is famous for its unique animation programs and interesting variety shows.

It attracts people of different ages, from children as young as a few years old to uncles, aunts, grandparents.

For example, the popular anime "Oyasha" that was being broadcast at the time: Inuyasha who was wavering between Kagome and Kikyo, the handsome but unfaithful Seshomaru, and Naraku who was determined to obtain the Shikon Jewel and become an invincible monster.

As a masterpiece of the post-90s generation and the ceiling of the animation industry, both the characters and the plot have touched the hearts of countless fans. However, the beautiful love eventually ended, which became an eternal regret in the hearts of the audience.

Variety shows including "Model Lollipop" and "I Love Black Society" were once popular on Star TV and were the number one favorites of many young viewers, especially the thrilling horror shows that were shown at 10 o'clock in the evening, which made people love and hate them, but eventually faded from the audience's sight.

However, China Entertainment TV, which mainly focuses on TV drama programs, is a very influential overseas TV station.

"The Shining", "The Knot", "Magical Girls", there are countless animation programs, such as "Itazura na Kiss", "Douyu", "My Love from the Star", not only the idol dramas that young people like to watch, but also "Kangxi Comes Here" and "Temptation of Wife" allow middle-aged and elderly people to have a glimpse.

Similarly, A Nightmare on Elm Street, which aired on schedule at 11pm, made China Entertainment TV all the rage.

and Phoenix TV’s information station “Phoenix Morning Express”.

It is widely known for its opinionated and in-depth news reporting.

It brought a lot of valuable news to the audience and also made well-known hosts such as Dou Wentao and Chen Luyu popular.

However, despite the ideals of major TV stations and satellite TV programs, the volume became smaller and smaller, until they closed down, stopped broadcasting, and disappeared from the screen again.

"According to statistics from the State Administration of Radio, Film and Television, as of the beginning of 2024, there are 388 radio and television stations at or above the prefectural level, 2099 county-level radio stations, and 33 educational columns across the country. Faced with so many channels, viewers simply cannot keep up, and are prone to a serious sense of oversupply in terms of choice, especially when a program becomes popular, and related peers will compete to shoot similar works. There are only so many things over and over again, but the number of production teams has increased, resulting in serious content homogeneity and a lack of original innovation and characteristics. Old TV shows are repeatedly broadcast, and new dramas fall into the old-fashioned mode, causing the audience to lose interest in TV programs. What else can a TV station do if it keeps broadcasting and goes bankrupt?"

Different from Director Liu's reminiscence, Tian Danni started from the essence of the phenomenon and explained the reasons why these TV stations were shut down.

"More than a decade ago, variety shows such as our "Where Are We Going, Dad?" and "Singer" had sponsorship fees of 2016 million or 7 million yuan. In 4, the sponsorship fee for "Big Camp" was as high as 5 million yuan. It seemed that any variety show could get 5-2013 million yuan in sponsorship fees. At that time, our station had no less than 1119 programs with sponsorship fees of over 583 million yuan. Although there are now ace programs like "Sisters Who Make Waves" that can get sponsorship fees of million yuan, how many programs on the station have sponsorship fees of over million yuan? It would be a blessing to have million yuan. In , the television broadcasting revenue of provincial satellite TV stations and CCTV was billion yuan. Now it has plummeted to billion yuan. The entire environment is shrinking." Director Chen of the Xinan Satellite TV Investment Department said.

"Don't even mention 100 million. I'm already grateful that my variety show "Competition " can get million in sponsorship fees." Director Tian Danni smiled self-deprecatingly.

"Director Tian, ​​there is no need to feel wronged. This is the first season of your variety show. Didn't the first season of "Sisters Who Make Waves" only have a sponsorship fee of 40 million? The terms were hastily negotiated just before the show started. The second season barely earned over 100 million, and it wasn't until the fourth season that it got 500 million in sponsorship fees. After that, it fell again and has never been higher than this number. As long as Director Tian does a good job with the variety show at hand, I believe it will become another trump card of the station in the second and third seasons." Director Chen comforted.

"Director Chen is right. I also have confidence in Director Tian's new variety show." Director Liu also took the opportunity to express his support.

"Yes, yes." Others in the meeting room agreed.

"I hope so. The operation of a TV station is difficult nowadays. Only if we work together as one and pursue innovation and change can we gain a chance of survival in the current environment." Director Tian has a strong sense of crisis.

"Yes, only hard work and innovation can give us a chance to survive. Otherwise, our Xinan TV may become history and disappear into thin air." Director Wen agrees with Director Tian's words.

While others are still envious of Xinan TV Station being the No. 1 provincial satellite TV station in the country, in fact, the middle and senior management within the station are all feeling insecure. Perhaps this is why they can become the strongest.

"Report."

"Come in."

"I just received a fax saying that Xia Haoyang's studio has issued a written notice that its artist Ms. Zeng Jingyi will withdraw from the recording of our variety show "Competition 100"."
