"I hereby announce that the winner of China's Voice's third place in 2016 is …"
In Zhedong Satellite TV Station's Studio 1, Tong Xinyao, Anxin, Li Keyan, and Zhang Ye stood on the stage hand in hand, waiting for the final results.
After the four segments of the mentors canvassing for votes, the students' ultimate challenge, the live audience voting, and the live media voting, the first season of China's Voice finally came to an end.
However, it was also the most exciting segment. According to the rules of China's Voice, the first two rounds of live voting needed to be added to the factual votes of the national audience, and then the total score would be calculated by the computer according to the proportion.
As well as the champion, second place, third place, and fourth place!
The person in charge of announcing the results was naturally the show's host, Cai Jie. At this moment, he had already received a card with the names and rankings of the students, a total of three cards.
The first to be announced was the third place.
The four students were extremely nervous, and the two girls were even on the verge of tears.
They stood out from the tens of thousands of contestants in the country, from the auditions all the way to the present, experiencing the cruel elimination of the team, rigorous and arduous training, and putting in unimaginable effort.
Although the top four was already dazzling enough, who would not want to reach the top?
It was no exaggeration to say that in terms of singing talent shows, China's Voice's influence had surpassed that of Shonan TV's Super Fast Girl and Super Man. The first season's champion not only meant great glory, but also represented a smooth path to the bright stars.
Not to mention the generous rewards that the champion could get!
The eyes of the 1,250 audience were fixed on Cai Jie, and three cameras were pointed at the host at the same time.
The studio was very quiet.
Until Cai Jie announced the name of the third place winner.
"Tong Xinyao!"
Tong Xinyao, it was Lu Chen's Team Tong Xinyao who won third place. She suddenly covered her face with both hands, and crystal clear tears flowed uncontrollably from between her fingers.
It was not the worst result, but of course, it was not the best either. In fact, Tong Xinyao was not surprised that she took third place, because the first two rounds of voting had more or less revealed this result.
But she still cried, with joy and bitterness.
The audience burst into thunderous applause. Anxin was the first to hug Tong Xinyao, sending her sincere blessings.
Although the two of them were competitors, they had become very good friends during the two months of competition.
Then it was Li Keyan, Zhang Ye, and finally Lu Chen.
Lu Chen walked onto the stage with a smile and opened his arms to give Tong Xinyao a hug. "Congratulations!"
Tong Xinyao was a very well-behaved girl. She was very talented in singing. She also respected and worshipped him very much. Unfortunately, her opponents were very strong. Getting third place was her best.
Tong Xinyao hugged Lu Chen tightly. Her face was pressed against his chest as she sobbed, "Thank you, Teacher Lu Chen!"
The cameraman gave a close-up shot in time, presenting this heartwarming scene to all the TV viewers.
Another cameraman "harbored ulterior motives" and aimed his camera at Chen Fei'er. Then, the director switched the camera in time, causing many viewers to smile.
It was just a program, so why would Chen Fei'er be jealous? Big smiles and applauds for them.
"Broken!"
At the same time, there was jubilation in the director's room. Many TV station staff gathered around Tian Tian and cheered in unison. "Record broken!"
It was a memorable moment, because the ratings of China's Voice had once again broken the record, reaching an unprecedented 10%, creating the highest record for a talent show.
In fact, from the last live broadcast of China's Voice until now, everyone had expected the ratings to break the record. However, witnessing the birth of this record with their own eyes was another matter, so they were naturally particularly excited.
A 10% rating was basically a myth in today's rich situation of TV programs. It was a miracle that the TV people did not even dare to think about.
Of course, Central TV's Spring Festival Gala, which had a ratings of more than 90% every year, had to be excluded.
This ratings record was enough to make Zhedong Satellite TV stand head and shoulders above all its peers, including Shonan TV. It was also enough to shake the latter's position as the dominant local satellite TV station.
On the other hand, Tian Tian was not so excited. Maybe she was too happy, but she suddenly calmed down.
Breaking the record was a good thing, but at the same time, it was also a form of pressure. This year's first season was so successful, so the second season next year could not smash this golden signboard. They had to strive for excellence in the quality of the program …
There were still four mentors who must be renewed. They were also an inseparable part of China's Voice's success.
Tian Tian's thoughts drifted to the future.
In the studio, the results of the counting of votes and scores continued to be announced.
"The runner-up is …"
"Li Keyan!"
Li Keyan was a member of Shi Fang's team. He was handsome and good at singing. He was especially good at love songs, so he was deeply loved by his fans. With his outstanding performance in China's Voice, he quickly rose to fame.
It was said that there were already many entertainment agencies eyeing this student of China's Voice and actively contacting him.
China's Voice had a bright spot that people inside and outside the industry appreciated, and that was that the producer, Star Factory Media, did not engage in binding contracts. The singers stood out based on their own abilities and would not be bound by any unspoken rules.
In many talent shows in the past, the contestants who entered the top ten or even the top twenty had to sign a contract with a certain company. Moreover, this rookie contract was often very harsh, resulting in many lawsuits.
Star Factory Media did not do this, which could be said to have opened a new trend in the industry. Even the champion and runner-up did not have to sign a contract.
Although there were also people in the industry who ridiculed Star Factory Media behind their backs, it was precisely this "foolishness" that allowed China's Voice to win praise from countless singers and audiences.
The vast number of singers needed a fair competition environment, and all the audiences did not want to see a talent show that was riddled with shady deals. The rules of China's Voice could be said to have touched the sore spot of today's variety shows, and the positive impact it brought was great.
Therefore, during the broadcast, in addition to Zhedong TV Station's vigorous promotion, various media outlets also gave it good reviews.
The success of China's Voice was not a fluke!
Now it was finally time to reveal the champion. At this time, there were still two students standing on the stage, Anxin and Zhang Ye.
Among them, Anxin was a member of Chen Fei 'er's team, while Zhang Ye was from Liao Jia's team. The popularity of the two was not much different, and each had a large number of fans. The votes in the first two rounds were also relatively close.
In the end, it all depended on the votes of the national audience!
