Chapter 290 288. These ninety million dollars are worth it! Use all the strength of the entire academy to win over Wang Cheng.
There is a rumor among people in the industry that Wang Cheng’s ratings and popularity are almost equal to half of the other people in the entertainment industry combined...
For a program, the ratings data of all the programs that Wang Cheng has appeared on before can prove one thing, that is, whether Wang Cheng is on the stage or not, the ratings data of the program are completely different.
Even!
The musicians invested a lot of hype resources in the early stage, and Wen Yixiao's performance in the opening was also extremely exciting, and the opening ratings were as high as 2.1.
but……
Everyone on the program team did not take the ratings created by Wen Yixiao to heart. They were all looking forward to the moment when Wang Cheng appeared on the stage, when the real results would be achieved.
At this time, Li Guang finally took the preliminary test report card into his hands. Li Guang, the person who shouldered the greatest responsibility and paid the most, was afraid to look at it!
Hu Xiaoshan and Zhao Donghu both stretched their necks and took a quick look. They couldn't help but stared at each other for a while...
Li Guang saw the two people's reactions and immediately looked at the numbers on the data report.
This statistics started when Wang Cheng appeared on the stage, so the shape of the report at the beginning was almost a vertical straight line. From the lowest ratings of 0.8 before Wang Cheng appeared, it soared to 2.7.
Then when Wang Cheng performed, the ratings increased rapidly, reaching a peak of 3.7, only 0.3 away from breaking 4.
The faces of the three people were full of surprise.
This is already their highest expectation. If the ratings can exceed 3, the task will be considered completed. If the ratings can exceed 3.5, it will be considered a success.
But for Wang Cheng's first performance, the peak ratings reached 3.7.
There are still three performances to come, so you can definitely continue to improve, right?
The hope of having a ratings of over 4 instantly became infinite...
"Ha ha ha ha……"
As the director of the program, Zhao Donghu laughed excitedly, venting the huge pressure that he had been suppressing in his heart, and said with a blushing face: "As expected of Wang Cheng, as expected of Wang Cheng. These 90 million
, it’s really not in vain, it’s a great value! If possible, we can give him 90 million for each issue, and it will be no problem to directly sign for one season..."
If you sign a contract for one season, at least ten periods, with each period worth 90 million, then Wang Cheng will be given a notice fee of 900 million.
If such a contract is really signed, it is estimated that the entire Chinese entertainment industry will be shaken.
but……
Looking at the ratings curve, the always cautious producer Hu Xiaoshan said with approval: "If Wang Cheng can raise the ratings to above four points in each issue, then even if he spends one billion, he will definitely be able to do it."
Earn it back. Tomorrow’s Idol’s income this year is more than one billion, and the long-term income in the future is immeasurable.”
How could Li Guang not know?
If Rubik's Cube Entertainment and Wang Cheng are willing to accept it, it is not impossible for him to really dare to give Wang Cheng a contract worth one billion for a full season and invite Wang Cheng to create a brand new variety show to catch up with the idols of tomorrow.
pity……
Li Guang shook his head regretfully and said: "It is unlikely in a short time. Rubik's Cube Entertainment will not let go easily, and Wang Cheng himself has no interest in these. I heard that Wang Cheng only waits for the Rubik's Cube Entertainment contract to end.
He will retire, I don’t know if it’s true or not. But looking at his current living situation, it’s really possible..."
When Li Guang thought of Wang Cheng's veteran cadre style, wasn't it just like his retirement lifestyle?
Hu Xiaoshan took a deep breath and said: "That's a pity. To be honest, it's a pity to have Wang Cheng come to our show. If we let him appear on a more entertaining prime time show, the ratings may break through as soon as he appears.
Four.”
Hu Xiaoshan looked at the curve trend behind him and felt helpless.
After Wang Cheng left the stage, the ratings plummeted again, from the peak of 3.7 to 1.1, and by the time the second group of contestants performed, they slowly dropped to around 0.7!
obviously……
Not many audiences really like to watch serious classical music performances.
As for who loses and who wins, naturally fewer people care, because they don't know these contestants, and they almost don't even know about the famous classical music schools in the world.
Therefore, Hu Xiaoshan knew that the ratings of tonight's musician program were almost entirely supported by Wang Cheng alone. If the entertainment program was changed to a prime time period, the ratings would not fluctuate so much, and the upper limit would not be as high.
It will be much higher.
Li Guang shook his head and said: "This is what Rubik's Cube Entertainment requires, there is nothing we can do!"
Who doesn’t want to fully explore Wang Cheng’s popularity potential?
However, there is nothing anyone can do.
Now, almost everyone knows about the conflict between Rubik's Cube Entertainment and Wang Cheng.
The major TV stations are trying to take advantage of the situation, while other entertainment group companies are sitting back and watching the fight, thinking that when Wang Cheng and Rubik's Cube Entertainment completely break up, they will come out to clean up the mess and easily take Wang Cheng under their banner!
Hu Xiaoshan picked up his cell phone and looked at the public opinion situation, and saw that almost all of them praised Wang Cheng, and one of the messages was even more popular. The person who posted it was Fan Yu, a master piano player in Shanghai.
Seeing this name, Hu Xiaoshan's expression became a little solemn, because this was the professor he had attended when he was young at Moyin. Fan Yu had already retired at that time, and is now eighty years old. He is one of the most famous professors in China.
He is one of the earliest generation of piano masters, and his parents were both music pioneers during the Republic of China. He has a rich family tradition, and it is no exaggeration to say that he is now one of the leading figures in the field of piano in China.
Fan Yu commented on Wang Cheng's performance in one minute: "This is one of the most wonderful live piano performances I have ever seen in my life. If I were forty years younger, I might learn piano from Wang Cheng, maybe
It’s because this piece of music was composed by him himself, and he played all the details and artistic conception of this piece of music clearly and vividly.”
"And this piece of music also amazed me. I want to say that China has also produced a world-famous piano piece that can be passed down from generation to generation!"
Obviously, Fan Yu's evaluation of Wang Cheng's performance is very high and cannot be higher.
And given Fan Yu's identity and status, being able to say such things is absolutely beyond the imagination of anyone in the classical music circle.
Hu Xiaoshan, a student who graduated from Moyin, never expected that Fan Yu would rate Wang Cheng so highly.
This speech also quickly became a hot topic, with more than 200,000 likes and retweets, and more than 30,000 people leaving comments. Such a thing is even more unusual.
This is because Fan Yu only registered the account when he was bored. He could not say a few words in a year and had only a few thousand followers, all of whom were his relatives, friends and students.
With the popularity and popularity of Fan Yu's account, no matter what he says, it is impossible for him to become popular so quickly.
unless……
Someone is behind the hype.
Buzz buzz...
Hu Xiaoshan's cell phone vibrated, and a group message popped up, which surprised him slightly. He quickly opened it and saw that a professor in the school group he had established before actually sent a message saying: "Everyone please forward and like Professor Fan Yu as soon as possible.
If it is convenient, please also ask students to post a comment praising Wang Cheng, preferably with a certified account."
Seeing this news, Hu Xiaoshan smiled bitterly.
Li Guang and Zhao Donghu obviously noticed the public opinion situation at this time and looked at Hu Xiaoshan at the same time.
Li Guang asked directly: "Lao Hu, has your school taken any action?"
Hu Xiaoshan nodded without concealment and said: "Well, the professor just sent a message in the group, calling on all of us students and alumni to like Professor Fan. It is best to use a certified account to post some words of praise for Wang Cheng. I think this should not be
The solo action of one professor in our class may be an action initiated by the entire Magic Sound..."
Li Guang was slightly startled, and after thinking for a moment, he suddenly said: "Moyin wants to win over Wang Cheng in public opinion?"
Zhao Donghu also widened his eyes and said: "Your college has spent a lot of money this time. It has devoted all its efforts to win over Wang Cheng and recruit Wang Cheng to the college. It is so courageous."
Hu Xiaoshan's eyes flashed with excitement, and he quickly opened his social account. This was his verified account. It can be clearly seen on it that he is a producer of Dragon TV, and it also shows that he is a student of Moyin. Directly on
The above quickly spoke and said: "Wang Cheng's piano playing is actually more exciting than what everyone experienced in front of the TV. I watched four of his performances on the show, and every one of them was shocking and wonderful. I
I am not qualified to comment on Wang Cheng, because his four performances have surpassed almost all classical music masters in the world..."
After writing something from his heart, Hu Xiaoshan clicked to send it.
Then, he saw many familiar acquaintances he knew who came from Moyin. Most of them were well-known people in the industry. People with no achievements also responded to Moyin's call, and almost all of them published more or less.
Almost all comments on Wang Cheng's performance are extremely positive.
"Professor Fan confirmed it. I personally think what Professor Fan said is correct. Wang Cheng's performance was beyond imagination. This piece was composed by himself. The style is beautiful and the performance is simple. It will definitely become popular.
, I hope Wang Cheng can come to Moyin to communicate with me when he has time."
"As a well-known screenwriter who graduated from the Magic Piano Department, I have almost forgotten my professional abilities, but my appreciation level is still there. Wang Cheng's piano performance is definitely the best I have ever heard or seen in my life. I am young
At that time, I heard several domestic piano masters perform, and they were all inferior to Wang Cheng."
"It is said that Wang Cheng has four performances, each one is more exciting than the last. I look forward to more exciting performances in the future."
"As an unknown professor in the Magic Piano Department, I am not qualified to evaluate Wang Cheng's piano performance. I dare say that Wang Cheng's performances tonight will definitely amaze the entire world of classical music."
"I really want to fast forward and go directly to Wang Cheng's performance..."
"It would be nice if the title of the piece was better. I feel that this Piano Etude No. 1 is too casual. Maybe this is the spontaneity of the artist."
…
Many well-known professors and well-known performance masters of Moyin have died one after another. When they gather together, they are naturally a huge force, and it is natural that they can bring the hot spot together.
For a while.
Many fans of Wang Cheng, as well as passers-by, were very surprised and curious.
because!
Most ordinary people really don't understand classical music. They just think Wang Cheng's playing is better and sounds extremely comfortable. Their mood is affected, and they don't know anything else.
At this time, seeing many professors and masters of Magic Music stand up and speak so highly of Wang Cheng, everyone began to understand the meaning of Wang Cheng's performance and the gold content behind it.
For a time, the popularity of the musician and Wang Cheng's piano playing soared again.
"So Wang Cheng's piano playing is so good?"
"I have something to say, I have heard this piece of music and I can't forget it in my mind. It sounds great, the melody is catchy, and it's easy to remember."
"My sister graduated from Yangyin University and is now a piano teacher. She said that Wang Cheng's piano is very good."
"Wow, is it true? Wang Cheng is so good at piano? He is only nineteen years old."
"I love you. Who can refuse this Wang Cheng?"
"By the way, can Wang Cheng come out and say a word? I haven't seen him for a long time. Summon the missing Wang Cheng..."
"Can you change the name of this piece? Isn't Etude No. 1 too casual?"
"Can this song be downloaded?"
"Don't think about downloading. I'm still waiting for Farewell and Descendants of the Dragon. There are no download resources yet. It is said that Penguin Music is contacting Wang Cheng..."
"Having said that, I'm also looking forward to Wang Cheng's future performances."
"Hurry up and start. Can't the program team just broadcast Wang Cheng's four performances together?"
…
Li Guang, Zhao Donghu, and Hu Xiaoshan saw that driven by the hype of Moyin, the show became more popular, and many people were looking forward to Wang Cheng's follow-up performances.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! They are also looking forward to the ratings of Wang Cheng's second appearance.
…………
In the hotel room.
After a while of discussion, Professor Haixi, Professor Charles, Phipps, and Heidi have already written down the score of the piano music Wang Cheng just played on a piece of white paper!
For piano masters and piano geniuses like them, it is not too outrageous to pick up the score after listening to it once.
Moreover, the piece "Due to Alice" played by Wang Cheng is indeed relatively simple and easy to remember.
In addition, Wang Cheng's performance also left a deep impression on each of them. Even if they wanted to forget, they might not be able to forget it within a short time.
Looking at the score on the white paper, the four of them had some surprise and shock in their eyes.
The sheet music is very simple!
They can now sit in front of the piano and play it with almost no difficulty, and even beginners can play it.
But……
It's because it's so simple that they feel shocked.
Simple, catchy melody, complete structure, and clear artistic conception!
This has all the foundations of a world famous song.
Today, when classical music has withered for nearly a hundred years, this piece of music will definitely be popular and will continue to be popular in the future.
Professor Charles whispered: "Today we witnessed the birth of a world-famous song. Heidi, Phipps, you must practice this song. After I return to the college, I will also assign it as homework in the college."
Professor Charles decided to take the first step and promote this piece of music in Curtis Institute. Then he wanted to spread it in North America and be the first to try it.
Today, when classical music is in decline and silence, perhaps it can be a blockbuster and gain some attention and fame for Curtis Institute.
Artists also need to eat, and art schools also need to eat.
The elite music and art schools in North America almost entirely rely on social donations and state subsidies to survive, so reputation is very important. Only with fame and status can you get more social donations and subsidies.
Heidi immediately replied: "I like this piece of music very much, and I will definitely learn it. Moreover, this piece of music is very simple, and you can master it after playing it once."
Phipps also said: "In fact, I have already learned it. After the recording of the show yesterday, I and other contestants discussed the score together. I have learned it and I can play it now."
Professor Haixi nodded and said: "Yes, I also participated yesterday! Wang Cheng played two piano pieces and one violin piece. We summarized the score of this piano etude No. 1, and only wrote one piece for the violin piece.
Diandian, I’ve written less than half of the last piano piece.”
"That guzheng piece, according to Chinese musicians, is also on the level of a historical masterpiece. However, we don't understand it very well, so we didn't participate in the research."
Professor Charles had previously heard Professor Haixi say that the four pieces of music played by Wang Cheng were not inferior to the world-famous pieces that have been passed down to this day. He must have been skeptical before because this was too exaggerated.
but……
Just after listening to the first song, he believed Professor Haixi's words.
Charles immediately said: "Then we will concentrate on writing the complete score first."
Haixi also said: "Okay!"
Phipps whispered: "I think the other participating colleges may be similar to us."
Heidi: "Then let's do our best and don't lose to them!"
They all know that people from the music academies represented by other contestants are here today, and many of them know world-renowned classical music masters who are not inferior to Charles. They have also settled in the same hotel. At this time, they must have their own
If you gather together to study Wang Cheng's performances and works, you will definitely learn to read the music scores, so as to gain a deeper understanding of Wang Cheng's works.
Curtis College is one of the top three prestigious schools in the world, so it must strive to be the best and not lose to other colleges.
And at this time.
The TV screen began to broadcast Wang Cheng's second appearance.
The broadcast footage started editing with Wang Cheng in the background.
I saw Wang Cheng scanning left and right, as if looking for an instrument. Hu Xiaoshan and Li Guang on the side were still suggesting that Wang Cheng continue playing on the piano he had just played.
Charles and others could see what was happening from the translated letters.
This was the first time for Charles and Heidi to see it, so they both frowned slightly in surprise. Under their gaze, Wang Cheng casually chose a violin and walked out!
Heidi immediately couldn't help but asked: "Is this specially arranged by the program team? I think he shouldn't be so casual, right?"
As a music artist who has been trained since childhood, Heidi is extremely serious and serious about the art of music, especially the instruments she plays, and she treats them as partners and relatives. It is absolutely impossible to be so casual.
In her opinion, it is absolutely impossible for someone who is so casual about his own instrument to have such profound attainments in playing the instrument.
But Haixi and Phipps were at the scene at the time, and they immediately shook their heads at the same time: "It was not arranged in advance!"
Phipps spent more time backstage, so he knew more about Wang Cheng. He said in a complicated tone: "You may not believe me if I tell you. In fact, he doesn't seem to like a certain instrument in particular. Do you think he
The piano performance just now was so good, do you think he was focused on the piano? In fact, he was not!"
"The reason why he played the piano was just because the piano was on the stage at that time! He chose the violin this time because it was too troublesome to move the piano up. The violin was at the door, and he could play with it. If there had been another one at the door,
instrument, he might choose other instruments..."
"He was in the background, reading a book all the time. If he didn't play an instrument, I would never have imagined that he had such amazing classical music attainments. He didn't communicate with the rest of us, or even look at us. He seemed to be living in another world.
A world where the existence of all the rest of us is invisible. Each of us has tried to communicate with him, but he has completely ignored us!"
"I think if you want to contact Professor Charles later, you must be mentally prepared in advance!"
Phipps spoke out his thoughts and experiences in one breath.
After hearing this, both Charles and Heidi were a little stunned, feeling that Phipps was talking nonsense.
How could there be such a person in the world?
but……
There is no time for them to think.
because.
Wang Cheng in the TV screen was already playing on the violin.
The sudden burst of sadness from the violin struck them instantly...
It also hit all the viewers in front of the TV.
Everyone couldn't help but feel inexplicable sadness in their hearts for a moment!
Charles and Heidi also immediately put down Phipps' words just now, and looked closely at Wang Cheng on the TV screen, their eyes full of surprise, a bit of shock, and a bit of disbelief.
Such a high level of violin playing...
They have never heard of it in their lives.
This is still the feeling through the TV signal.
If you listen to it live, are you afraid that you will cry on the spot?
