Xiao Qi heard others say that the speed of doing things in the Hong Kong entertainment industry is very fast.
For example, many of the Hong Kong movies he watched when he was a child only took a month from script to release.
Now he has seen the speed of variety show production in Hong Kong - on Sunday, February 3, Hong Kong TVB announced that a new variety show "I Am a Singer" will be launched on Wednesday, February 6.
On January 5th, TVB reached an agreement with Xiaoniao.com to jointly produce the program "I Am a Singer", and it was launched within a month.
If Xiaoniao.com had done this itself, it would have taken at least two or three months to complete the first two or three phases.
According to Shen Wuyan's news, TVB has produced a total of 12 episodes of the program. If the ratings are good, it will be broadcast one episode every Wednesday and Sunday, and then try to broadcast one season for half a year.
Of course this is not TVB just trying to get ratings. Hong Kong actually has too many resources to choose from. Half of the songs that everyone remembers from childhood come from Hong Kong singers!
Sure enough, the first-round contestant of the first season directly made "I Am a Singer", a program jointly produced by TVB and Xiaoniao.com, appear on the front page of entertainment newspapers.
The reason is simple.
The first participating singer announced on the 3rd is Xu Guanjie.
The second singer announced on the 4th is Li Keqin.
Since there was Li Keqin, his good friend Principal Tan Yonglin naturally appeared on the list for the third day.
These three super singers alone are enough to excite everyone who loves Hong Kong music.
Younger people may not know who Xu Guanjie is, but he is the first generation of Hong Kong’s well-deserved super singer. It was also he who brought Hong Kong Cantonese songs to the big stage and spread. Many second-generation Hong Kong people, For example, the principal, Mei Gu, Guorong, Xueyou, etc. all grew up listening to his songs.
Needless to say, Principal Tan is the second generation singer after Xu Guanjie. As for who is better between him and Guorong, it is no longer important. He was one of the representative symbols of music in Hong Kong at that time, and no one can deny it. .
As for Li Keqin, he was a little less lucky. He had high hopes from Principal Tan, but he encountered the days when the Four Heavenly Kings were rampant in the world. Therefore, he was very capable of singing, and in the end he could only become a first-line singer. But this His singing skills are very good, and it can be said clearly that he ranks directly among the three kings besides snow lovers.
Of course. If these three people want "I Am a Singer" to make the headlines in the entertainment edition, they still have a little time to do it. After all, they have been around for a long time.
But the fourth singer announced at midnight on February 6th has absolute strength - Zhang Xueyou!
You read that right, it’s Xu Guanjie, the third-generation singer after Tan Yonglin, and the most influential Chinese singer in the world, Zhang Xueyou!
When Tan Yonglin dominated the music scene, there was another Guorong who was indistinguishable from him. It was hard to say who was number one. There were too few singers in Xu Guanjie's era and there was not much competition.
But the era when Zhang Xueyou appeared happened to be the most popular era in the Chinese music scene. In this era, to be chosen as a well-deserved singer, Zhang Xueyou is definitely a super singer!
Even Zhang Xueyou came to participate in "I Am a Singer", so there is no reason why "I Am a Singer" should not be highly anticipated!
You know, in the past two years, apart from starring in a few movies and holding concerts, Zhang Xueyou has basically stopped appearing frequently.
Now that they can see him on TV programs every day, not only the audiences in eastern Guangdong are full of expectations, but also other parts of the mainland and even Hong Kong are extremely excited.
"Is there any welfare? It's been a long time since I heard Zhang Xueyou singing live!"
"Haha, there is also my favorite Principal Tan, whose "Can't Say Goodbye" is my favorite!"
"And Xu Guanjie, his songs like "Genius Idiot Dream" and "Silence is Golden" are so missed!"
"No matter who else, as long as there are snow friends here, I will definitely watch every issue!"
"I can only say that it's awesome! TVB and Xiaoniao.com!! I don't know how much money this program cost! Can it continue forever if it burns so much money?"
"I'm confused. What channel is TVB in East Guangdong? Why can't we watch it? Can we only watch the live broadcast of Xiaoniao.com?"
"It's so unfair! Why can't we watch it? Why can't it be a satellite TV like Guangdong TV? Such a big program doesn't face the national audience? Can you be worthy of us fans?"
"Yes! I strongly protest! "I Am a Singer" can only be watched online. What should I do if I am in my forties and have liked Xu Guanjie, Tan Yonglin, and Zhang Xueyou? I don't like watching programs on the Internet!"
"Uncle upstairs, don't forget that there is also a TV station called Bird TV. You can buy a Bird TV, add it to the Bird Box, pay the viewing fee, and then you can watch the programs on Bird Network just like watching TV.
Yes, it’s synchronized!”
"Yeah, if that doesn't work, I'll have to install a Little Bird TV. But it depends on how "I Am a Singer" is going to be. If it's really good, I won't be stingy!"
"I heard that there were 18 singers in the first round of "I Am a Singer". If the singer is too bad, he may not be worthy of one of these three singers! I really look forward to seeing who they are!"
"It's strange, why are there no female singers? Since even snow friends are here, I wonder if Zuer will come?"
"Don't say much, just beg Wang Fei to attend!"
"..."
Comments on "I Am a Singer" are aroused on the Internet.
According to special survey data, as of the launch day on February 6, the viewing intention in eastern Guangdong and Hong Kong has exceeded 62%, and the number of people on the Internet who are eager to watch exceeds 120 million.
At this time, only very, very few people will doubt whether "I Am a Singer" will become a hit!
Can a show that has three generations of singers participate in it still be a bad show?
Stop joking!
Although these viewing expectations are a bit watered down, the number of viewers for the first episode, including those on TV and online, will definitely not be less than 100 million!
Even two hours before the broadcast, Xiaoniao.com specially announced that Xiaoniao TV had sold 173,000 more units than usual in the past two days. Of course, all of them chose to install Xiaoniao Box and activate Xiaoniao TV.
tv annual fee package.
Such is the appeal of superstardom!
But this is just the beginning. Whether it can keep the audience and make "I Am a Singer" popular depends on the production level of the entire program.
At 10 p.m., "I Am a Singer" officially starts.
The prime time after news programs and TV series are broadcast.
Although this time is already 10 o'clock, compared with the average time for modern people to rest at 23:30, it can still be regarded as a prime time, especially for young people, as nightlife has just begun.
The host of ceremonies who just came out made everyone's eyes light up.
"Wow! Chen Baixiang? This is a treasure for dispatching to suppress Taiwan!"
"Hey hey hey, the female host is actually Xiao Bingbing? I kneel down to Xiaoniao.com and TVB!"
Everyone knows Chen Baixiang. Zhu Zhishan in "Tang Bohu Spots Autumn Fragrance" is his most well-known character, but his other identity is a gold medal host, and he can definitely be compared with Zeng Ziwei.
And another thing is that his voice is better than Zeng Ziwei.
Not to mention Xiao Bingbing, she is definitely a super star from the Mainland and ranks among the top three among the younger generation of actresses.
Just looking at the hosting of these two people, it is worth the price of admission.
At this moment, the instant ratings in Hong Kong and Eastern Guangdong exceeded 22%.
With the initial surprise, the stars who appeared one after another did not disappoint everyone.
In addition to the four previous super stars, there are also well-known singers such as Chen Huilin, Zheng Xiuwen, Xu Zhian, Cai Qing, Xin Xiaoqi, Huang Guanzong, Ling Zhixuan, Zhao Chuan, Guang Liang, etc. Although they are always a little older, they are now 25
-The youthful memories of people aged 40 years old.
18 singers made an appearance at the beginning, but only 7 appeared in the first round. This is in line with the original rules of "I Am a Singer".
Even though we didn't see 18 singers performing together on the same stage, everyone was already very satisfied.
Listening to them singing the songs that everyone was familiar with when they were young, I don’t know how many people sang along softly, and I don’t know how many people burst into tears while singing.
It can be said that the ratings have never dropped since the beginning, and as the arena competition started, each singer's wonderful performance, the thrilling selection and elimination process made everyone reluctant to blink.
As a result, the ratings continued to rise.
25%,27%,30%……
Until the final showdown in the first round, between Huang Guanzong and Zheng Xiuwen, to decide who would temporarily withdraw from the stage, the ratings suddenly exceeded 40%. Although it finally fell back to 36%, the average ratings also stabilized at 32%.
The viewership exceeded 20 million, which is already a very remarkable achievement!
Because Guangdong TVB TV station is not facing the national audience. It has only 120 million residents in Guangdong and Hong Kong. One-sixth of the people watched this program. Isn’t it unsatisfactory?
Besides, the number of people watching the program through Xiaoniao.com and Xiaoniao TV peaked at 118.23 million people, and the average viewership was about 70 million, setting a record for the highest number of viewers of variety shows on Xiaoniao.com!
This is still the case when the two generation singers Zhang Xueyuan and Tan Yonglin have not appeared. Especially Zhang Xueyuan, as long as he appears in the episode, he will definitely reach a new high. There is no doubt about it!
With this expectation, it is not surprising that the production teams of TVB and Xiaoniao.com immediately held a celebration party after the show ended! (To be continued, please search Piaotian Literature for better updates of the novel.
