China's Voice's official Weibo account on Waves's blog had only been online for a short period of time, but the number of fans grew at a rapid pace. Especially after it was announced that Lu Chen and Chen Fei 'er would be the judges and mentors of the reality talent show, the attention on the show increased exponentially.
Countless fans of Lu Chen and Chen Fei 'er were paying attention to China's Voice. That was because for everyone, the appearance of this singing couple at the mentors' table at the same time was undoubtedly something worth watching.
Of course, the attention of China's Voice was not limited to just the two's fans. Liao Jia's participation also increased the show's popularity, especially for those who liked rock music.
Following the start of China's Weibo national auditions, the show attracted a lot of attention. However, the officials seemed to think that it was not enough, as they deliberately left the last suspense until the end of the auditions.
Every day, there would be people discussing and guessing in the comments section of China's official Weibo account and the official Tieba, guessing who the final mentor would be. The list ranged from domestic to Hong Kong and even overseas.
Now, the mystery was finally revealed!
Tian Tian's photography skills were very average, and her camera tool was a mobile phone. However, the photo she took tonight was not about technique or quality. The key was the main character in the photo.
In the luxurious private room of Shangri-La Hotel, four superstar mentors sat around the table. The first one on the left was Liao Jia, the last king of the era of national rock. With long hair and a cowboy shirt, he always had an unruly look.
Next to Liao Jia was Lu Chen. He was tall, handsome, and young. His casual attire made him look elegant, and the faint smile on his face made him look like a friendly boy-next-door.
On the left of Lu Chen was Chen Fei 'er. Her long dress with simple makeup did not change her beauty, and her smile was charming.
As for the last person, who was sitting on the far right, it was a beautiful woman wearing a burgundy dress. Her hair was tied up in a bun, and her face was slightly thin, giving off a delicate feeling.
Everyone, everyone who saw this photo, recognized her at a glance!
Shi Fang, the Heavenly Queen of Xiangjiang's music industry, Shi Fang!
In the 1990s, Shi Fang was a real superstar in the music industry that swept across both sides of the Taiwan Strait. Her records repeatedly created sales records and had countless fans in the mainland. Her works deeply influenced a generation of young people.
Someone once calculated that if Shi Fang's album included pirated copies, the total sales volume in the mainland would definitely exceed 100 million.
After entering the New Era, her influence did not decline much. Many of her films and TV works were broadcast in China, and she became the Heavenly Queen of Film, TV, and Song in the hearts of her fans. In 2003, she held a special concert at the Beijing Workers' Stadium. 70,000 tickets were sold out, and the price was even inflated by scalpers to several times the original price.
However, 10 years ago, Shi Fang temporarily retired from the entertainment industry due to health reasons. After about five or six years of silence, she lost a lot of her popularity, but the real fans were still looking forward to her comeback.
There were a lot of stars in the Xiangjiang Entertainment Circle, and there were many talented people. However, in terms of influence and popularity in the mainland, no man could compare to Chen Gangsheng, and no woman could compare to Shi Fang.
Therefore, when everyone saw Shi Fang appear in the country and chat happily with Lu Chen and the others, they were very surprised, especially those who liked Shi Fang.
"Oh my god, it's actually Shi Fang. Am I seeing things?"
"I'm still in shock. When did Shi Fang make a comeback? I didn't even know about it!"
"Shi Fang's fans were passing by. Their favorite song is Romantic Night. They will never forget it."
"Romantic Night + 1. Rose Tulip is also very good. I always sing these two songs when I go to KTV."
"China's Voice is really amazing. They actually managed to invite Shi Fang."
"Seeing Sister Fang again, I feel like crying."
"Tell me, Lu Chen, Chen Fei 'er, Liao Jia, and Shi Fang. What's the weight of these four combined?"
"Super heavyweight!"
It was indeed a super heavyweight. There were many talent shows in the country, and there was no lack of high-end productions. However, when it came to singing reality shows, there were not many that could compare to China's Voice, which had just revealed its trump card.
Lu Chen, Chen Fei 'er, Liao Jia, and Shi Fang. Any one of them was enough to hold the fort. Even if it was Lu Chen, who had debuted the shortest and youngest, in terms of popularity and strength in the Chinese pop music industry, how many could compare to him?
It would not be an exaggeration to say that such a lineup was extravagant!
Tian Tian's photo really made a killing. Within a short hour after it was posted, the number of forwards easily exceeded 100,000. Even the number of followers on the official Weibo account skyrocketed — that was because many of Shi Fang's fans had rushed over after hearing the news.
As for the comments below, it was even more lively. The fans of the four mentors were arguing like a pot of porridge.
Not only the fans, but many people in the industry also joined in the fun (to ride on the popularity). Not only did they repost the photo, but they also expressed their amazement, admiration, and other emotions.
As a result, the keywords "Shi Fang" and "China's Voice" both made it to the top trending words on the homepage of Waves's blog.
The happiest ones were undoubtedly the contestants who had passed the audition for China's Voice. The more famous and popular the program was, the more beneficial it was for them. Even if they could not win the final championship, it was worth it to be able to appear on stage in the program!
In past talent shows, there was no lack of examples of losing contestants becoming more popular than the champions.
Although it was expected, the popularity of the official Weibo account still made Tian Tian, the initiator, dumbfounded. She did not let it get to her head, and quickly made a call to the company to announce the rules of China's Voice.
This was called striking while the iron was hot. The four mentors had all been revealed, and the last trump card was revealed. There was no need to continue covering up the veil on China's Voice.
The rules of the show were also one of the highlights of China's Voice. It was mainly divided into four stages, namely the blind selection of mentors, the selection of mentors, the battle of mentors, and the annual ceremony!
Today's talent shows had long been overdone by the major television stations. There was a serious problem of homogeneity and audience fatigue. Apart from a few of the major stations' ace programs, the ratings were not optimistic.
If a new talent show wanted to win the market, it had to take the path of differentiation. Otherwise, it would be difficult for it to survive. China's Voice, which brought out the lineup of superstar mentors, was obviously not satisfied with superficial attention. They were more concerned with pursuing the essence of the show.
Other than the lineup of mentors and the rules of the show, China's Voice also revealed another trump card.
That was the winner's reward for the contestants!
