Bright Star Road [Entertainment]

Most of the programs of Smart & Partners are broadcast on East TV, but apart from APEX’s own team variety shows on East TV, most of the team’s individual programs are broadcast on United TV, and of course there are a few programs on South TV. .Although many people are secretive about the formation of this situation, Li Wei, who debuted as a trainee in the firm, still knows a thing or two.

When APEX debuted that year, it was indeed regarded as the successor of the previous generation of ace groups, but as soon as APEX debuted, it hit the "golden age of rock and roll", and idol groups were almost doomed.Therefore, APEX did not make any reputation in the music circle in the first three years. Not only did the records fail to win the top position in the charts, but even the concerts would fail to sell [-]/[-] of the tickets.Because of this, the firm gave up on continuing to cultivate APEX, and planned to disband APEX in a low-key manner.

But at this time, APEX met Fan Zhi. Under Fan Zhi's operation, APEX started again as a variety show, put down the burden of being an idol, played ugly, dressed up as a woman, and rushed to be the first in any game with a professional attitude and gained a firm position on the TV station .At this time, Fan Zhi asked APEX members to make a choice, who would continue to work hard in the variety show industry, and who would break new ground in the film and drama industry.As a result, the team captain Shi Liang and the last son Shen Wu decided to stay in the variety show, while the remaining three were arranged by Fan Zhi to go to the film and television industry.

The strategy of splitting up this time has directly created APEX's double ace status. First, Kuang Wei overwhelmed the protagonist with a supporting role in the idol drama, and was immediately praised by the TV station as the number one actor in the idol drama.Some people say that the peak era of Kuang Wei is the golden age of idol dramas. As long as Kuang Wei is the leading actor, then this idol drama must be the top ten in the ratings of the year.According to recent statistics from the China Television Arts Association, in the fashion drama category, the five TV dramas with the highest average ratings in Chinese history are all starring Kuang Wei; half of the top 52.5 dramas are starring Kuang Wei.At the same time, "Beautiful Life" starring Kuang Wei set the highest ratings for a single episode of TV series, [-]%.It means that when that episode was broadcast, more than half of the Chinese people were watching Kuang Wei's acting, so why some people say that Kuang Wei is the number one idol in China.

And Shi Liang also went from a regular team to an assistant host, and finally became an official host.He not only hosts the show himself, but is also the most popular guest on various variety shows.When Shi Liang was at his busiest, he could be seen on almost any channel on the TV.The super high amount of exposure made Shi Liang immediately become a leader among the new generation of hosts, and he was also hailed as the best successor of the "Three Kings and One Queen".

Driven by Kuang Wei and Shi Liang, APEX immediately turned around, and the single finally guaranteed the honor of Zhang Zhang's champion single.Now Kuang Wei is still the number one actor in idol dramas, while Cao Jiangang and Lang Daoyuan, who followed him to set foot in the film and drama circle, have become urban drama male gods and costume drama princes respectively; Also considered to be the leader of the Second Legion in the hosting industry.It is precisely because all five of them shine in different fields, which also created the status of the APEX National Team.

Although Shi Liang's "Ghost Talk Library" was broadcast on United TV, it adopted the method of separating production and broadcasting, so the production place of the program was Smart Dream Production Co., Ltd.That is to say, it is a company jointly invested and established by Smart Partners, the five members of APEX and Fan Zhi. APEX's brokerage contract and most of the program production are in this company.Because the customized nanny car has not arrived so soon, Su Li's SUV continues to serve as Li Wei's car.

In addition to the brokerage contract with APEX, Smart Dream Production Co., Ltd. also has the brokerage contracts of 5ive and SmileMinors, and the brokerage contracts of most of the trainees are also temporarily hung here.Because of this, the income of Smart Dream Production Co., Ltd. is quite high, so the location of the office building they bought is better than that of the headquarters of Smart Firm, which also made Teng Jingli quite dissatisfied for a long time.

When Li Wei and others arrived, the receptionist said that Shi Liang was resting in his exclusive lounge, so Li Wei just went up to find him.As the "mother's family" of APEX, all five of them have their own ultra-luxury lounges, which are comparable to luxury suites in five-star luxury hotels.When Li Wei arrived at Shi Liang's lounge, Shi Liang was reading a notebook.Like TV dramas, variety shows actually have scripts, relying solely on the performance of the host and guests is very tormenting post-production.

After seeing Li Wei coming, Shi Liang got up and said, "Hey, I won't be polite to you. After all, you are also my direct descendant, so I don't care so much. How did the program "Ghost Story Library" be recorded? I miss you I’ve seen it too. I’ll take you to the scene and watch and talk.”

As a talk show, "Ghost Talk Library" actually doesn't need a big studio.It's just that because APEX's programs pay attention to letting fans and audiences come in to assist in the shooting, the audience seats account for more than half of the shooting area.The recording area is about one-third of the battle studio. The background is what a library looks like. Two bookshelves were made out of cardboard, and between the bookshelves is the passageway for the guests to appear on stage.

The host sits on the left hand side of a reading table, the guests sit in rows behind the reading table, and the vice-host sits on the right hand side of the reading table.There is a long LED screen and a scorer on the reading table, while guests and hosts have voting devices.During the program, the long LED screen will scroll the questions raised by the host, and the scorer will be the final votes.Behind the host, there is also an assistant host seat.

The assistant host stands in front of a large LED screen, which is used to call out all kinds of anecdotes happening around the world, and the assistant host will briefly introduce the background of these news. The program format of "Ghost Talk Library" is that the assistant host broadcasts a piece of weird news, and then the host and guests discuss these news.Of course, the host will also burn the topic on the guests, especially when the guests are in the middle of the topic.In addition to discussions, the host will also open up a voting session according to the atmosphere of the scene. The host will ask questions, and the vice-host and guests will vote.

""Ghost Talk Library" has one episode per week, and about five episodes a month. If you have a regular guest, it is usually enough to record two or three times a month. As for the specific remuneration, the producer will discuss it with your agent. Question?" Shi Liang asked, "Actually, besides talking about "Ghost Story Library", I invited you here this time, and I was entrusted by the old man to tell you one thing clearly. You have kept your promise, I have studied overseas for five years. Therefore, there is no reason for the firm to continue to block you, but you also know that the old man is not in charge of things now, and some people like to play tricks behind the old man's back. There is no way. But a few days ago During the meeting, the old man has already made it clear that the firm will not continue to block you. And the old man also hopes that you can remember the good of the firm, and let the things of that year go away. "

Li Wei just shrugged his shoulders, and then said: "Senior, is it the 25th anniversary of your APEX group?"

"Actually, it should mean the 28th anniversary of our formation and the 25th anniversary of our debut. Just like your AKids back then, they first debuted in a limited group as Shine's backup dancer." Shi Liang explained, "According to the firm's regulations, it should be sun25 anniversary."

"I remember that the seniors will release their 100th single and 25th anniversary collection this year, right?" Li Wei asked.

"Yeah, it's a pity that the 100th single still hasn't found a suitable song." Having said that, Shi Liang sighed.

Although the team members have already focused their work on the film and television industry, as an idol group, the album still needs to be released.Especially this year is really important for APEX, not only the 100th single, but also the 25th anniversary commemorative collection, and the 25th anniversary Asian tour.In a word, the celebrations are one round after another, and the agency obviously wants to take this opportunity to draw attention to the male idol group again, so as not to be robbed of the glory by DNH36.

"As for the best album, the firm's official website has opened fan voting, and fans will decide on the final track of the album and our concert track."

"Senior, I have a song here that is very suitable for you, do you want to try it?" Li Wei decided to take this song out.

This song also belongs to an idol group that has been established for 25 years, and in their country, this song almost has the reputation of the second national anthem.The melody of this song is simple, suitable for everyone to sing along; but the lyrics are beautiful and meaningful, warming everyone's heart.The important thing is that there is an official Chinese version of this song, and the Chinese version has also been recognized by everyone.

Because of the firm's stocking attitude towards APEX back then, APEX didn't have a good impression of the firm's senior management.Kuang Wei was openly confronting the higher-ups, and Shi Liang was secretly stabbing the higher-ups. Therefore, although APEX is the pride of the firm now, trainees rarely see them in the firm.

Every year, when APEX released PTV's "Longfeng Chengxiang New Year's Song Concert" and other firm combinations and training gave birth to "Smart Family New Year's Eve Concert", APEX, as a senior, will have dinner together Give out red envelopes to junior groups and trainees.At that time, AKids was the direct descendant of APEX after MAD, so AKids could receive different red envelopes, and Shi Liang would greet them one or two times.

And when Li Wei was hospitalized for tonsil surgery, APEX came to visit him, so Li Wei is still very grateful.He hoped to make APEX's [-]th single a classic, so he came up with this song.Li Wei handed the score and lyrics to Shi Liang.Although Shi Liang often blames himself for being a music idiot, how many of the idols trained by the agency really can't read music and can't sing?

After Shi Liang hummed softly, he realized that this song was very interesting. "I took the song away, and I have to discuss it with the team members before deciding. If the negotiation is settled, I will come to you to ask for authorization?"

"Uh, the copyright of the lyrics and music of this song has been sold to Gaia Music Publishing Company." Li Wei said with some embarrassment, "That is my private sole proprietorship company. Then, senior, I hope to be the producer of this song and arranger."

"Okay, let's discuss and answer you. And you are smart, you know how to find an agency company to represent your copyright of lyrics and music." Shi Liang said with a smile.

In fact, APEX did not realize the importance of the copyright of lyrics and music until later, so it formed APEX Victory Music Publishing Company to represent the copyright of lyrics and music for its singles and albums.

After chatting with Shi Liang, Li Wei left Smart Dream.After returning to the studio, Su Li smiled and called Li Wei to her office, and then took out two emails for Li Wei to read.
