"SingingChina" is the first reality talent show launched by Beijing Television. It is divided into seven major singing areas: Beijing, Shengjing, Huhai, Hangzhou, Tianfu, Huacheng and Bihai, with a total prize amount of more than 30 million!
Big enough to surpass Shonan TV, which is famous for its wealth.
Although only 10 million of the 30 million is a cash reward, and the rest is a gimmick for contract training and packaging promotion, it is still a large amount of money.
The reward for the singing area champion reaches 100,000, the runner-up is 50,000, the third and third place is 20,000, and the remaining seven contestants who advance to the top 10 also have 10,000, all of which are after-tax bonuses.
After the top 10 in Beijing singing area are born, they will go to the six major singing areas in the country at the beginning of next month for a round-robin competition. The top 10 winners will have corresponding bonuses until the top 10 are decided, and then they will return to Beijing for the final election.
The bonus for the national champion is as high as 5 million, including 1 million cash rewards and 4 million new star training funds!
It is precisely because of such generous rewards that "SingingChina" has been pursued by countless professional and non-professional singers. The competition in the seven major singing areas is in full swing, and the ratings are rising steadily.
BeijingSatellite TV has made a lot of money in advertising.
As the most important Beijing singing area of the seven major singing areas, the ratings of the top 10 finals on the evening of July 31st broke through 4% and reached 4.76%, which is very close to the 5% fire standard.
At present, the ratings survey of domestic TV programs is independently completed by New Video Distance Company, a subsidiary of the State Administration of Radio, Film and Television. It belongs to a state-owned third-party authority, so there is no doubt about its authenticity.
In the past, when the efficiency of TV advertising doubled, there were as many as a dozen domestic TV program ratings survey agencies. Because there was no fixed standard, coupled with the endless emergence of black box operations and insider trading, there was a chaotic and disorderly situation.
Some organizations don't even have any qualifications, but they dare to make a ratings ranking list.
Later, because the opinions of the industry were too great, the State Administration of Radio, Film and Television personally set up New Video Distance, sweeping all the ghosts and snakes into the garbage heap of history, so that domestic TV programs have reliable ratings data.
New Video Distance's ratings data collection is not limited to TV screens, but also includes live webcasts. The competition of Beijing Television's "Singing China" Beijing singing area has never exceeded 4%.
This time, it has reached a breakthrough of 4.76%, an increase of as much as 1%, which is worth celebrating.
On the evening of August 1, Shonan TV "Super Singer" first national final broadcast, with a rating of 3.42%.
Such a result was a big surprise. It should be known that in terms of variety shows, Xiangnan Satellite TV has always been the hegemon. It has basically never lost in the showdown with other satellite TV. In the early stage, it also steadily suppressed Beijing Satellite TV.
But the situation finally changed.
Although the specific reason needs to be analyzed in detail, many people in the industry believe that the decline in the ratings of "Super Singer" has a certain relationship with the weakness of Ling Xiaoxiao, who is strongly supported by it.
In the competition that night, Ling Xiaoxiao's original work, "Kaleidoscope", had a mediocre performance. Furthermore, on the internet, discussions about his work copying the former Korean boy group KDK had not subsided.
In contrast, as Ling Xiaoxiao's competitor, Lu Chen, who was supported by "Singing China", became braver and braver.
Lu Chen's original work "Fly Higher", which he brought out in the top 10 final of Beijing Singing Area, appeared on the new song list of QQ Music the next day, ranked 9th, and the number of clicks and downloads rose amazingly.
In the Waves blog, Xiao Xiao Support Group was no longer arrogant. In the face of Lu Jiajun's provocation, they all pretended to be dead dogs.
And with the rising ratings of "Singing China", Lu Chen finally broke through his original circle and initially had his own status and reputation in the pop music world or the big entertainment industry.
Although he is still a young star, as an independent artist, it is already a small miracle that he can come to this step, and in the foreseeable future, his star will become even more brilliant.
In the two days after the end of the top 10 final of Beijing Singing Area, a number of entertainment media and brokerage companies came to the door.
They obviously inquired about Lu Chen's background and wanted to come early to pick up the leftovers.
Lu Chen pushed all these visitors to Lu Xi.
His opinion is very clear, that is, there is no need to talk about signing a contract, but there is no problem with cooperation, as long as the other party has sincerity.
And his so-called cooperation, to put it bluntly, is to sell songs!
Do you have any new idols, little fresh meat men and women groups that need good songs?
Then we, Lu Chen Studio, can tailor-make songs for customers. As for the quality of the work, please refer to "In The Spring", "Reason to be Strong", "You Who Sat Next To Me", "Fly Higher", and so on.
As for the price, a song starts at 200,000, and there is no cap!
Lu Chen Studio's offer scared away several guys who came with the idea of picking up cheap goods, and also made several other powerful companies feel very conflicted.
Lu Chen's talent is beyond doubt. The value of a single song "In The Spring", not to mention 200,000, even if it's one million, it's worth it. But such a classic is really rare.
Spending 200,000 to buy a song is not much pressure for them, but if the bought song is not suitable or can't create enough benefits, the person in charge will undoubtedly suffer.
In any case, Lu Chen's rise is too fast, unlike the veteran big name writers, whether it is credibility or strength, they are trustworthy. What if his inspiration dries up and he can no longer write good songs?
Not to mention that the 200,000 will be thrown into the water, he will also be laughed at by his peers!
After all, Lu Chen has created a lot of works now. As a young newcomer, his accumulation is still shallow.
In addition, there are some rumors in the circle, saying that songs such as "In The Spring", "Reason to be Strong", "I Want To Have A Home", and "Fly Higher" are not written by Lu Chen himself, and may be operated by a behind-the-scenes team.
It wasn't like something like this hadn't happened before.
Nowadays, the so-called grassroots stars, 99% of them are hyped up.
This kind of rumor is very convincing, and there is a certain truth to it. Although it is said that mediocrity is not envied, Lu Chen, who has no roots and no foundation on the surface, is so popular, and there is a reason for it!
Therefore, after talking with Lu Xi, these companies chose to wait and see for the time being.
Lu Chen didn't care about this at all. He said to Lu Xi, "Next time they come to our door, then raise the price of a song to 300,000, not a cent less!"
Lu Xi said with a smile, "Isn't that not good?"
Lu Chen is full of confidence: "At that time, they will come to us to beg, not us to beg them."
Lu Chen's greatest wealth came from the countless classic masterpieces in the dream world. It was impossible for him to sing all of these outstanding works himself. He must sell a lot of them.
But if he takes out too many good things, they won't be worth much. Lu Chen is very clear about this, so he would rather rot in his own hands than sell them cheaply in large quantities.
These entertainment media companies obviously haven't realized it yet, or they are aware of it but don't dare to bet on his strength. It's very normal to continue to wait and see.
However, that was then and this is now. When the "Singing China" competition is over, the situation is bound to be Big Different.
It will no longer be two or three kittens that come to his door.
Lu Chen is full of confidence in this.
He set up his own studio and took the road of independent artists, without thinking about how to compete with his peers in the industry.
Lu Chen Studio is entirely for Lu Chen's own service. The studio will not sign people or poach people, nor compete for resources, but create resources, which will undoubtedly be able to have friendly cooperation with most of his peers.
For example, Nirvana Studios, which is producing an album for him.
At least for now, Lu Chen has no ambition to build an entertainment media empire. What he wants is to become a superstar like Tan Hong, and even surpass his childhood idol and become a real perfect star.
He wants everyone to remember his name and bring all the classics of the dream world to this world.
And it may take a lifetime to realize such a dream!
Some people come and go, and go back empty-handed.
There were also people who came, and they wouldn't rest until they brought something back.
For such people, Lu Chen still welcomes them.
"Hello, Director Su!"
On August 3rd, the day before Lu Chen left for Shengjing, Su Qingmei, director of Light Rain Media, came to the studio.
The young lady came over with two assistants, and Lu Chen personally received them.
After all, Light Rain Media is his biggest partner at present.
Su Qingmei is dismissive of the small studio and has no interest in visiting. She said straightforwardly, "Lu Chen, we want the song 'Fly Higher'. We can sign the contract now!"
The Bionics became a hit, and "In The Spring" has been on the top of the original music charts for three weeks. As a signing company, how can Light Rain Media ignore the power of Lu Chen?
So Su Qingmei came, even though she still doesn't like Lu Chen.
Lu Chen smiled faintly and said, "This song is going to be the second main song of the album for the North Needle band, right?"
Su Qingmei was surprised, "How do you know?"
It's not difficult to guess. Originally, Light Rain Media first signed the North Needle band, and then signed The Bionics. Because the latter quickly put together a small album, they were the first to debut.
Now that The Bionics is popular, Light Rain Media wants to strike while the iron is hot, and on the other hand, they also want to promote the North Needle band to improve their position in the industry.
With The Bionics as an example, a single main song "Blue Lotus" obviously can't meet the requirements of Light Rain Media for the North Needle band. Their appetite has been whetted.
"About the copyright, you can talk to the manager of our studio!"
Lu Chen is too lazy to answer her question, and he solemnly introduced his elder sister to the other party.
"Lu Xi is also my agent."
He believes that with Lu Xi's ability, it's enough to keep this young lady.
He will not let Light Rain Media benefit.
This is the first time Su Qingmei and Lu Xi met.
When they shook hands, their eyes met, and invisible sparks flashed in the air.
