Chapter 52 The Scheme of the Program Group(1/2)
China’s Hip Hop is a rap program produced by Qiyi Video.
Shaoyang had also seen the video of this show when he was browsing Douyin before. Because it is the first rap show in China, starting from the first episode, the number of video views of each episode has reached more than 25 million.
The influence can be seen as general.
According to the competition format of the show, the semi-finals are six to four, and two out of the six contestants will be eliminated.
The program team also came up with an impromptu idea to invite eleven singer-songwriters to be judges.
First, it can attract a wave of traffic to the program.
Secondly, if the judges vote, it can also prevent the audience from saying it is a shady story.
After all, after comparing each episode, the six people who are still on the show already have a lot of fans. No fans on the show team want to offend, so they came up with this idea.
When the rap player that fans like is eliminated, the audience will not scold the program team.
The semi-finals will be taped on Saturday night and broadcast next Friday night.
Friday evening.
Yang Lan drove Shao Yang and Xue Jiajia back from the mall.
Shaoyang sat slumped in the car with a look of despair on his face.
one afternoon.
A whole afternoon.
I followed Yang Lan and Xue Jiajia to buy clothes in the famous brand clothing store in the mall.
Having tried on countless clothes, Shaoyang felt even more tired than before when he worked in an advertising agency for an entire afternoon.
But Xue Jiajia was in high spirits. Seeing Shao Yang's lifeless look, she slapped Shao Yang on the arm and cursed: "You're going to die, didn't you just buy a few clothes? Are you that tired?"
"Sister Lan, is this necessary? Miss Xue has bought me several sets of clothes before."
Yang Lan smiled while driving: "The contestants on the rap show wear very fashionable clothes. Although you are going to be a judge, you can't be compared with them. I think the clothes Jiajia chose today are quite suitable for you."
"That's right, my vision is no worse than anyone else's."
Yang Lan said: "This is also the first time you have shown your face in public since your debut. When your popularity increases in the future, we can find some luxury brands to cooperate. In that case, it will save trouble."
Shao Yang nodded and asked, "When is the flight to Beijing tomorrow?"
"It's past ten in the morning. I'll pick you up at seven-thirty. Jiajia, you drive to Shaoyang's house before eight o'clock."
Upon hearing this, Shao Yang turned to look at Xue Jiajia and said with a smile: "It's so early, can you get up?"
"Who are you looking down on?"
"If you are late, we won't wait for you."
Xue Jiajia was so angry that she reached out and pinched a piece of meat on Shaoyang's thigh, and then twisted it hard.
"Ah!" Shao Yang's scream sounded in the car: "Xue Jiajia, a gentleman talks but never touches."
"I'm not a gentleman."
"Shrew, what a shrew!"
"Say it again!" Xue Jiajia pointed at Shaoyang with an index finger and said, her tone full of threats.
Shaoyang rubbed his red thighs, closed his eyes and pretended to be dead.
…
Beijing.
In the Huating Hotel.
Lu Peng, the director of "Hip Hop in China", is discussing matters related to the recording of the next program with several deputy directors and producers of the program team.
"Have all the eleven judges been contacted?" Lu Peng asked.
"Um."
"It's the semi-finals. We must not let things slip at this critical moment. As long as we ensure the current ratings, there will be a second and third episode in the future. There is no need to worry about not getting sponsorship."
"Director Lu, how should we arrange the order of these eleven judges?"
"Just arrange it according to their reputation."
Assistant director Li Da reminded: "But in the semi-finals, if the first ten judges have the same number of votes, then the last judge will offend people no matter how they vote."
Lu Peng came to his senses. He asked his assistant to bring over the list of eleven judges. He frowned at the list for a while, and finally raised his head and said, "Let Shao Yang vote last. He is a newcomer."
The implication seems to be: "He is a newcomer anyway, we can afford to offend him."
The assistant director and producer beside him nodded, and the matter was confirmed.
…
Noon the next day.
After Shao Yang got off the plane, he went directly to the recording site and met with the assistant director Li Da. After knowing the recording process in advance, he took Yang Lan and Xue Jiajia to the hotel.
On the road.
Yang Lan said angrily: "It's too much, it's simply too much."
Shao Yang didn't react. Seeing Yang Lan so excited, he asked doubtfully: "Sister Lan, what's wrong?"
"It is very risky for you, a newcomer, to be a judge. They actually let you be the final judge. If the first ten judges vote in a tie, then no matter how you vote, you will offend people. Their arrangement must be
on purpose."
When Yang Lan got angry, he naturally spoke faster: "These rap contestants have a lot of fans. No matter who is eliminated, their fans will definitely..."
Yang Lan didn't finish her words. She sighed, feeling a little helpless.
She had seen many newcomers being bullied when they entered the industry, but she didn't expect that it would be Shaoyang's turn so soon.
Originally, Yang Lan thought that Shaoyang would be able to expand Shaoyang's popularity by relying on the popularity of "Brilliant Son" and appearing on a recently popular show, but now looking at it, it would be great if he didn't get scolded after appearing on the show.
Upon hearing this, Shao Yang smiled and said: "It's okay, maybe there won't be a tie vote."
is it possible?
Not too possible.
For the sake of program effectiveness, this kind of variety show cannot give up this opportunity to create suspense and public opinion.
Yang Lan, who had been there before, sighed and said nothing more.
Back at the hotel, Shao Yang began to prepare for the evening show. Yang Lan was resting next door, while Xue Jiajia had been sitting next to Shao Yang, watching Shao Yang use his notebook as accompaniment.
"You haven't finished it yet?" Xue Jiajia couldn't help but ask when she saw that Shao Yang hadn't finished it for a long time.
Shao Yang explained: "I have prepared two songs, one is softer and one is explosive. Which one I sing tonight depends on the situation."
"What's the difference?"
Shao Yang smiled and said: "One is pure singing, the other is..."
Shao Yang deliberately put it off and said with a smile: "You'll find out tonight."
Xue Jiajia sighed and lay down directly on the bed in the room. Shao Yang said helplessly: "That's my bed."
"I don't care." Xue Jiajia waved her hand feebly and said, "Remember to call me when you are leaving."
How could this aunt think of herself as an assistant? She was clearly just a follower.
Eat and drink for free.
The kind that doesn't work yet.
Shao Yang finished the accompaniment of one of the songs, took a look at the time, walked into the room, raised the air conditioning temperature by one degree, and threw the air conditioning blanket on the bed to cover Xue Jiajia.
Then he continued to sit back in front of his laptop.
Time passed minute by minute.
In the blink of an eye.
It's evening.
"Xue Jiajia, Xue Jiajia." Shao Yang put on the clothes they selected for him and walked to the bedroom. He saw Xue Jiajia lying on the bed in a large font. He shouted twice without waking her up. Shao Yang reached out and pinched Xue Jiajia's nose.
.
This trick really worked.
"Hmm~~~" Xue Jiajia, who was breathless, raised her little hand and patted Shaoyang's arm. She opened her eyes drowsily and said in a coquettish tone: "What are you doing?"
"Wake up quickly, I'm going to record the show right away."
Xue Jiajia sat up from the bed very reluctantly and stayed there for a long time before taking off the blanket and putting on makeup.
Xue Jiajia didn't react until she got in the car and went to the recording site.
Um?
It seems that I didn't cover myself with a quilt when I slept.
