Bright Star Road [Entertainment]

The author has something to say: First, this article has cheats and abilities.Readers who don't like this kind of setting can bypass it.

Second, the so-called "plagiarism flow" is always inevitable in the themes of the entertainment industry. Readers who cannot accept such elements can stop.

Third, many of the settings in this article come from Japanese entertainment, because everyone knows that the domestic entertainment industry lacks regulations, so many selections lack authority.

Finally, if you see the prototype of some people or groups in this article, please don't say it, it's a little secret between us.

The setting sun in winter is always pale and not warm enough. Li Wei, who just came out of that unremarkable small white building, looked back at the nameplate at the entrance.No. 111, Prince East Road, Donghai City.Smart Office.It seemed a bit reluctant, but in the end Li Wei turned his head, smiled slightly, and summoned a taxi to leave here.

Smart & Associates, the third largest brokerage company in the world, is also a behemoth that monopolizes [-]% of the entire Asian male idol market.Ten years ago, Li Wei was recognized by the firm as a super trainee, and was hailed as "the ace of tomorrow's firm" by many senior groups who debuted for many years.It's a pity that just five years before his debut, due to an accident, Li Wei and his agency completely fell out.In order to terminate the contract, Li Wei accepted the harsh condition of "studying abroad for five years", and has been banned by the firm ever since.

Five years have passed, and Li Wei, who returned from studying in the United States, also immediately chose to formally terminate the contract with the firm.If it was five years ago, the news of Li Wei's contract termination might have become the entertainment headlines of the major media; but today, five years later, I am afraid that only the most loyal fans will sigh quietly, right?This is the entertainment industry, and this is the entertainment industry that loves the new and dislikes the old.Leaning against the glass of the back seat of the taxi, the air that I exhaled made the glass window gradually fog up...

Back in his room, an abrupt figure of a middle-aged man suddenly appeared.Li Wei, who was lying on the sofa, said angrily: "A guardian angel must have the consciousness of a guardian angel. You should not appear when I have not summoned you."

The middle-aged man shook his head helplessly, "I know you feel uncomfortable, but isn't your five-year silence just to make a comeback? If you give up now, how will you face the next blockade of your firm? It’s not that you don’t know the means of your firm. Why do your idols not appear on the same program as the terminated artists, and if the terminated artists appear on the first program, the firm arranges for the subordinate idols to appear on other competing programs at the same time as the first program? If you lose your fighting spirit now, won't you be looking for life again when the firm really bans you?"

"Then what can you do?" Li Wei, who was bored on the sofa, asked back, "I followed your advice five years ago and chose to study abroad. Five years ago, I strictly demanded myself according to your method. Now I Not only do I have a double doctorate degree in performance and composition from the Juilliard School of Music in the United States; I am also a senior assistant to Anna Winter, the editor-in-chief of the American version of "VOGUE"; at the same time, I have also practiced for a long time in Hollywood, Broadway and Burbank Time. But, what is the use of these? Tell me, which record company in Huaxia State can help me release records? And which TV program can let me be a guest?"

"If you hadn't met me, it might not work; but if you met me, everything would be different." The middle-aged man said confidently, "Don't forget, before I served as your guardian angel, I was a parallel A powerful entertainer on Earth. Although I got into a car accident while promoting a movie before I won the Oscar for Best Supporting Actor, I have decades of experience."

"Then what good advice do you have?" Li Wei finally came out of his depressed mood and started tidying up the room.

This room was bought by Li Wei when he was a trainee, and it was his first home.Because Li Wei is an abandoned child, he was brought up by the Salesian Bureau of Donghai City since he was a child.When Li Wei was eight years old, he was chosen by Chen Wende, the president of Smart Firm, to become a trainee of the firm because of a theatrical performance by the Salesian Bureau.

After Li Wei turned [-] years old, the agency arranged for him and four other boys to form a limited group of AKids.There are a lot of limited combinations launched by the firm every year, but it is rare for them to make it to their debut.The AKids where Li Wei works broke many rules of the firm. For example, AKids adopts the double ACE system, and there are two lead singers in one group.And another lead singer, Zhou Xiao, also has the reputation of "general" in the office, so this limited combination of "general" and "genius" is considered to be the sixth generation trump card combination of the office.

As a limited group, they usually attend the company's own program, or go to the senior group's concert as a backup dancer.However, AKids launched a limited combination and released a single called "Until There Is Only One World". .

After releasing their own single, AKids also has their own titled program, "AKids' Sunday Morning".Although it was only a talk show on Sunday morning, for a group that has not yet debuted, this treatment is obviously very extraordinary.The opening guest of the show is the current flag-carrying group of the firm, and also the APEX of the National Sky Group.

Because of so many halo blessings, even though the commission for trainees is more demanding than for newcomers, Li Wei still saved a lot of money.Compared with children from other normal families, Li Wei, who has had no family for a long time, is more sensitive.With the help of the grandmother of the Director of the Salesian Bureau, Li Wei bought this single apartment for himself to live in.

"Of course I have suggestions." Seeing that Li Wei's emotions had recovered, the middle-aged man also began to analyze with Li Wei.

"First of all, each TV station's flagship program and ace drama cannot be intervened by the firm, because this is the brand of other TV stations, and it will definitely not be held hostage by your agency. But with your reputation, these programs and dramas are also Not for you.

Secondly, the programs of super big hosts will not be easily influenced by the brokerage company, but to reach this level, you must be a BIG4 host like 'Three Kings and One Queen'.But, I guess they won't notice you, so it's none of your business.

In the end, there is the possibility that a TV station or production company that has a bad relationship with the agency may turn a blind eye and let you participate.At present, China has five major TV networks. We don't consider the public TV network located in Yanjing. After all, they are public TV stations, and there are not many variety shows.

Similarly, we don’t consider the Southern Television Network located in Nanhua City. Most of their programs are mainly sports programs, and they have basically given up on variety show production. It is better not to participate in the remaining variety shows.

So there are only three television networks headquartered in Donghai City: United Television Network, Oriental Television Network and Asian Television Network.Among them, Oriental TV Network has the best relationship with the firm. You can see that not only four of the five programs produced by your firm are broadcast here, but also the two titled programs of the most popular Storm under your firm are also named by Oriental TV Network. of.Therefore, this TV network will definitely not cooperate with you, but instead is a pioneer in blocking you.

The relationship between the United Television Network and the firm is acceptable. They have a program of the firm and a program named after APEX.So ANN certainly won't be on your side.So, in the end, the only thing you can choose is Asian Television Network.

Asia Television Network is famous for its excellent drama series. In recent years, it has begun to deploy variety shows in the market, but it has been suppressed by Oriental Television Network, and it cannot get the support of Smart.So, Asia Television Network is definitely the one that doesn't like the firm.Therefore, your breakthrough point is here. "

"After listening to your analysis, I think it makes sense. However, I don't know any producers, so, Your Excellency Angel Chen Wendi, your words are actually useless."

Li Wei is also a person who has experienced ups and downs in the entertainment industry.He knows very well that the key to the entertainment industry is connections, without connections, it will be difficult for you to move forward in the entertainment industry.But Li Wei used to follow people from the firm on the show, and his connections were firmly in the hands of the firm.In addition, when Li Wei was still a teenager, no producer would send him a business card, so Li Wei felt that Chen Wendi's analysis was useless.

"It's impossible to say that!" Chen Wendi pointed to the half-page advertisement on the entertainment page of the "South China Times", "Asian Television Network broke the boat this time and launched this talent show called "Asian Avenue of Stars". I watched it The introduction and selection system of this program is very similar to a popular program in my world, "Super Idol".

In the audition stage, the final list of the live broadcast competition is determined by the votes of three judges, and in the live broadcast competition, the promotion places are determined based on the votes of the judges and the audience.Do you know why I want you to participate in such a talent show?

First of all, the format of this show is the first time you have appeared here, and it is fresh enough to maintain a higher popularity; second, this show is actually about fans growing up with idols, believe me, the fans you have accumulated in the show will become your fans. The last diehard fans; finally, this show is basically a show where singing skills determine everything, and since you plan to achieve something in the record industry, draft singers may be considered a good background. "

After listening to Chen Wendi's analysis, Li Wei began to study the advertisement of this program.The first "Asian Avenue of Stars" will set up six local divisions in Yanjing, Donghai, Nanhua, Beidao, Xingcheng, and Jinguan, and three overseas divisions in Cape Town, Toronto and Wellington, as well as the Nanyang city of Mingzhu. special area.

Each competition area will have auditions, preliminary rounds, semi-finals and finals, and the top ten in the finals of the competition area will enter the national finals.The national finals will be divided into "one hundred to fifty", "fifty to thirty", "thirty to twenty", "twenty to ten", "ten to five" and the final "five strong competition". .

The entire event spanned three months, and the publicity period lasted for half a year.The championship reward includes the endorsement contract of the overall title sponsor Sprite, a bonus of 100 million, and the production and promotion expenses of a regular album; the runner-up reward includes a 50 bonus and the production and promotion expenses of a mini album; Production and publicity expenses for the single.

All the national top ten contestants except the top three will each receive a bonus of 5 yuan, and all the national top [-] players will release commemorative compilations.It has to be said that in order to break through the blockade imposed by the Oriental TV Network, the Asian Television Network has paid a heavy price.

Li Wei then looked at the sponsor, because the level of the sponsor determines the level of the variety show.The overall title sponsor is Sprite, a beverage brand launched by Coca-Cola, the world's largest beverage company, for young people who like music and sports; other primary sponsors include clothing brand Jeanswest, skin care brand Mentholatum, automobile brand Buick, and computer brand Dell And MP3 brand Avery and.It has to be said that the appeal of these brands themselves is still very high.

The reason why Li Wei pays attention to the sponsors is that to some extent, this kind of talent show will also be used by sponsors as an occasion to select spokespersons or advertising models.

"However, Donghai City is the main venue, so the competition here must be very fierce. Do you think we will compete here, or change to a safer competition area?" Li Wei asked.
