Chapter 90 Playing tricks

"MusicStation" has been on the air for more than [-] years since its inception, and it can be regarded as one of the pillar programs of Dongshi. When "MusicStation" was launched, it was the time when music programs were popular. At that time, as long as there was a TV station, there must be a half-hour to one-hour music program.However, with the rise of MTV and BET, the two major professional music channels, the ratings of music programs are declining steadily. At the worst time, only "MusicStation" is the only one remaining.

But today, the five major wireless TV stations have their own music programs, but only "MusicStation" can maintain a regular program for one hour, and also launch a 2-hour special program every quarter.And "MusicStation" has been hosted by Wu Fei since its broadcast.

Wu Fei is the most experienced "king" among the top domestic variety show hosts "Three Kings and One Queen". In addition to hosting variety shows, he also released records, but the sales volume is really embarrassing.Wu Fei was born in an acting family. His older sister is a sexy idol of the generation, and has won some small and medium awards as the queen of actresses; while his younger brother is a veteran singer in China. He is still active on the stage so far. The series of small concerts held were also sold out.

Because Dongshi's studio center is in Donghai City, Su Li, who was busy buying the company because of Li Wei's brainstorming, handed over Li Wei's itinerary to Li Ke and Peng Duoli.Anyway, Li Wei will be these two assistants in the future, and it is necessary to let them go out to see and get to know some contacts as soon as possible.It is also because it is in the city, so Li Wei does not need to take the small car-style nanny car, but instead takes another company nanny car converted from an MPV.This nanny car can take four to five people. The three seats in the back row have been removed, and an oversized dressing room has been created together with the original trunk.

After arriving at Dongshi Studio Center, Li Wei and the other three entered the building through the guest passage, while Qin Bo went to the underground garage to park.Since "MusicStation" is the pillar program of Dongshi, it still maintains an average rating of 2% so far, so Dongshi has the most resources for "MusicStation".Not only are the studios the largest ones, but there are also plenty of prepared lounges.After all, singers are different from announced artists. Singers are always favored like princes and princesses in whatever record company they are in, so at least everyone or every group must have their own lounge.Of course, the size and luxurious decoration of the lounge are still related to the reputation of this person or group, that is, their seniority.Li Wei is one of the best among the newcomers, so the lounge for Li Wei is not bad.

Not long after Li Wei was seated, Li Ke went out to inquire.Before the recording of this kind of music program, the guests of each group visit each other in advance, especially the guests during the release period.Generally, the junior singers come out to say hello first, and then it is the turn of the oldest singers.Although Li Wei is not in the filming period, it is the first time he is on this show, and he has to go out to visit according to the rules.Fortunately, the program team will inform each group of guests who is the guest of this episode, so that several managers can arrange time with each other, so there will be no mistakes.

So not long after Li Wei sat there, two small groups and three newcomers came over to say hello and presented their albums or singles.Li Wei accepted the gift with a smile while encouraging everyone to work hard.But Li Wei complained from the bottom of his heart that the rookie at this time came out to be cannon fodder.

Basically, when the record company arranges the debut schedule of its newcomers, those with potential will be arranged in the summer file, and if it is a little bit worse, it will be in the spring vacation file; if it is even worse, it will be arranged in the fall school file; only those who have no hope will be placed in the winter vacation file Go and play against the queen of heaven or other big singers.But at least they can be pushed to "MusicStation" by their own company, which proves that the company still has some expectations for them. As long as they don't lose too badly, they probably have a second chance to release the film.

After this round of visits by the newcomers, naturally Li Wei went out to visit the seniors.Because this issue is obviously to promote APEX, Fan Zhi will not let other big singers come anyway, so Li Wei's last visit is APEX.As the legend says, APEX is the least "group love" group in Smart & Associates.The five people who were not on the show sat in different places, either playing with their mobile phones or just in a daze.It was only after seeing Li Wei coming that everyone became a little more enthusiastic.It is inevitable that Li Wei will also present his own album, and then APEX and others will also congratulate one or two.

After the established process was completed, Shi Liang pulled Li Wei aside, "I heard that you have submitted an article to "The Spring and Autumn Period of Literature and Art", and it is said that it will be published? That is amazing!"

"I can't be praised by the seniors. It's just that I was lucky enough to meet an enthusiastic editor-in-chief to help with the operation." Li Wei replied quite modestly.Then he couldn't help complaining in his heart, as expected, there are no secrets in the entertainment industry.

"You really don't know the mystery." Seeing Li Wei's bewildered expression, Shi Liang couldn't help shaking his head, "You may think that the old man is the real giant in the entertainment industry, right? Then you are wrong! It is true that the old man can command the wind and rain in the entertainment industry, but he absolutely does not dare to dictate to the writer. Don't look at the old man who has been recuperating recently, but every time a writer comes to visit, how often does he not come forward in person? Because you Writers hold the things that determine the life and death of the entertainment industry. If you writers did not provide works, the entertainment industry would have finished. When you were only a songwriter, the old man asked Aunt Chen and Sister Teng to touch you. If you If you can gain a firm foothold in the circle of writers, the old man will regard you as a guest of honor." Shi Liang said with a sigh, "If you write a script next time, you should consider us!"

After coming out of the APEX lounge, Li Wei thought about Shi Liang's words.Even if Su Li successfully acquired the advertising company, it would be impossible to produce a TV series in the first place.The most appropriate way is to co-produce a TV series with an existing production company, and how to persuade the production company is a very good script.Li Wei thought about the current popular drama series, and he found that domestic TV stations did not have the category of "workplace drama".

Of course, there are workplace dramas in a broad sense, because legal dramas, crime dramas, and medical dramas are actually popular categories of workplace dramas, and they are listed separately because they are too popular.But there are no workplace dramas in a narrow sense like Japanese dramas. Japanese dramas like to start with some popular or unpopular occupations, and then use career inspiration as the main plot line, supplemented by emotional lines such as family, friendship, and love, and then concoct a series of mellow chicken soup. workplace drama.However, this kind of workplace drama is still very popular in the Asian market, especially for young people and those who need this kind of drama to play chicken blood.

But the recording was about to start, so Li Wei temporarily put his thoughts aside.The on-site director gathered everyone on the background board before entering the venue. According to the usual practice, the assistant host will interview everyone here.As for the standing position, it must be the big singers on both sides of the host, the smaller the card, the further back.

Li Wei was standing behind APEX, which was what APEX required, after all, I came here this time to stand for them.This recording didn't take too long, and then everyone went in and sat in rows.

Of course, the location has been arranged a long time ago. The main guest of this episode, APEX, is naturally sitting next to Wu Fei.Li Wei sits behind the APEX, which is also a position that the camera can often capture.

The first part of "MusicStation" is the theme list or theme survey, and then the singers chat about the theme content.

The second part is the singing session, and "MusicStation" designed a stage for each group of guests that fits the theme of their singing.Because of this, the recording time of "MusicStation" is quite long.

For example, for APEX "The Only Flower in the World", all the LED screens at the bottom of the stage were replaced with green fields covered with flowers; at the same time, the stage background was a tree with various flowers made by the props group; Some production staff were waiting on both sides with air fireworks, and it seemed that they wanted to make the flower rain scene at the climax.

The biggest gimmick of this program is that the national group APEX will announce their 25th single released on the 100th anniversary of their establishment, so the entire stage design is also striving for perfection.In addition, Dongshi and Wu Fei himself have a good relationship with Smart & Associates, so at least half of this program is talking about APEX.

After APEX sang this single live, Wu Fei showed a surprised expression on his face, he knew that this song would definitely be popular.It is estimated that this is the first ten-million-dollar single in the new year. Wu Fei couldn't help but look at Li Wei, who is a songwriter and arranger.When the stage was taken down and everyone was chatting, Wu Fei suddenly mentioned the reason for Li Wei's creation.

Li Wei said: "Music creation is actually a very mysterious thing. Sometimes it is very complicated, and sometimes it is very simple. I know that some people suspect that my age and experience are not enough to write so many excellent repertoires. Why don't we play a game on the spot. Let me ask Senior Shen Wu to blindfold the mascot Nightingale of "MusicStation" to someone in the auditorium, and ask him to set a theme, and I will create it on the spot .Of course, in order to increase the difficulty, you don’t need to choose love. At the same time, in order to avoid the suspicion of cheating, we only choose people who are not in the entertainment industry, how about it?”

Of course Wu Fei didn't think it was a big deal, but APEX showed a little worry.Writing a song is not a matter of every minute, but seeing Li Wei's insistence, Shen Wu still blindfolded and threw Nightingale out as required.Then the person who picked up this mascot was a boy with a youthful face.The boy's slightly terrified face appeared on the big screen, and then sparked a burst of laughter at the scene.

Wu Fei took the microphone and said with a smile: "Don't be too nervous, little brother. What's your name? What do you do?"

At this time, someone had already given the microphone to the boy, and he said rather awkwardly: "Uh, my name is Xiaoqiang, uh, I'm a student in No. [-] Middle School. That, can you make a mosaic for me? I skipped class."

The boy's words made the audience laugh again, and even Wu Fei couldn't help laughing, and said with a smile: "It's okay. Everyone has seen it. This kid is not from the entertainment industry. So, what kind of song do you want to listen to?" ? Love songs are not allowed! Children of your age should not fall in love with each other!"

The boy's nervous face turned even redder. He thought for a while and said, "I'm graduating soon, and I want a graduation song for my buddies. But I don't want that kind of sad song. Graduation song, I want that kind of cheerful graduation song."

"Haha, Li Wei, now I'm asking for it." Wu Fei said, "Graduation song about friendship for the boys, and it shouldn't be too sad, but happy! Now we invite Li Wei to the backstage to prepare, 15 minutes Please enjoy his songs later!"
