Starting with Super Girl, he began to train the Chinese entertainment industry.

Chapter 86: The 2006 Draft All-Star Battle

2006 October.

The afterglow of the Spring Festival Gala has not yet faded.

Zhang Liangying once again completely erased all the slander and attacks from 2005 with "Wanjiang", declaring who is the only true goddess of "Super Girl"!
Previously, Li Yuchun had hoped to face off against Zhang Liangying again with her first album, but after watching the Spring Festival Gala live broadcast, she didn't have a comfortable New Year.

They've already been on the Spring Festival Gala, what are we comparing them to?

"That's hilarious, Li Yuchun, say something!"

Is it really that hard to acknowledge Liang Ying as the top female contestant of "Super Girl"?

"Liang Ying hasn't shown her face for four months after the competition. Do you really think she's run out of ideas? Shen Qing is taking Liang Ying to the Central Conservatory of Music three times a week to study. She's been focusing on improving her singing skills! What are you, Li Yuchun, doing? Going around to commercial performances and endorsements. Are you trying to improve your singing?"

"Brother Chun, let's talk about your first album surpassing Jane Zhang's compilation album released in November first, haha. Do you know how terrifying Shen Qing's first album, which took half a year to produce, is?"

"Please elaborate, upstairs, how amazing is it?"

"..."

During this period, Shen Qing indeed did not take Liang Ying out.

He only accepted three interviews from CCTV, Tianjin TV, and Sina, and wrote a song called "Peerless Under Heaven" for "The Return of the Condor Heroes". He spent most of his time practicing his basic skills at the Central Conservatory of Music.

They didn't even attend some music award ceremonies held in China; they had Zhang Lu from Taihe Wheatfield accept the awards on their behalf.

These awards are of very low value.

Shen Qing only focuses on major awards such as the Golden Melody Awards, Golden Bell Awards, and Top Music Awards...

But winning these awards is quite difficult.

After all, this is an era of fierce competition in the Chinese music scene. If you want to stand out, having original songs is not enough; you must hone your singing skills to perfection.

If the foundation is not strong, the earth will shake.

Now is not the time to be wandering around~
Although Zhang Liangying is currently very strong, she is still some distance from being at the top level. Shen Qing just wants her to practice singing properly.

The pretty girl was very obedient.

She did whatever Shen Qing said without ever uttering a word in reply.

Just like she often says: "I trust you, and I will do whatever you ask me to do without hesitation!"

This girl is hopelessly infatuated with love.

……

The last day of February.

Taihe Wheatfield, in collaboration with Shen Qing's studio, released a statement announcing that the demo tape for Zhang Liangying's debut album has been completed and recording will begin soon.

"Waaaaah, after much anticipation, she's finally here."

"At this rate, it feels like it won't be released until at least summer, that's a long time!"

"Pretty much, we still need to shoot a music video."

"Sigh, if I could get nominated for the Golden Melody Awards, I feel like Shen Qing could finish an album in a month, but that damn Golden Melody Awards is so cruel to mainland singers..."

Is this due to the Golden Melody Awards themselves? Or is someone manipulating things behind the scenes?

"Now we can't even perform there, let alone win the Golden Melody Awards..."

"..."

at the same time.

Unable to contain itself, Dragon TV announced the launch of "Go! Good Men!" on this day.

Last year's "My Show" was completely crushed by "Super Girl" and didn't even make a ripple. This year is the revenge battle.

Otherwise, where would Shanghai's reputation be?!

The entire internet was in an uproar.

Countless young people with dreams began to take action, and even their parents supported their sons in signing up.

This is the impact of Zhang Liangying's victory!

Her positive image has been fully recognized by the public, and no one takes singing talent shows lightly anymore; it's a real stage that can create stars.

the other side.

Hunan TV, not wanting to be outdone, announced the launch of its 2006 singer talent show the very next day.

Some time ago, when Hunan TV submitted its "Super Boy" project to the State Administration of Radio and Television, it was ordered to change the name because the name was too flamboyant.

Therefore, Hunan TV changed "Super Boy" to "Happy Boy".

Regardless of the name change, the registration for "Super Boy" was extremely popular, with more applicants than for "Go! Good Boys!"

His position as the top variety show host on Hunan TV is currently unshakeable.

Jiangsu Satellite TV announced the launch of "Absolute Singing" at almost the same time as Hunan TV, and began accepting applications that same day.

Since Jiangsu Satellite TV had never hosted a similar program before, it didn't generate as much buzz as the other two channels, and the truly talented young people all went to the other two.

Regardless, this is a competition organized by Jiangsu Satellite TV, and the province's strong economic influence still has some appeal.

Throughout March, young people across the country were captivated by the three competitions, dreaming of winning the championship.

[Three major talent shows launched simultaneously, will you be the next Zhang Liangying?] [The 2006 talent show battle will surely go down in history]

[Experts predict: This year may be the first year of China's entertainment industry take-off, and surpassing South Korea is only a matter of time]

【…】

There are all sorts of news stories every day.

But fans are more concerned about whether Shen Qing participated in the competition.

So far, there has been no information released. When Zhang Liangying was asked by reporters at the event whether Shen Qing had signed up, she did not give a clear answer.

"Why doesn't Shen Qing debut?!"

"He's so strong and handsome, he would definitely beat everyone else if he went on the show."

"Ten thousand people have petitioned, begging Shen Qing to participate in the competition!"

"Why bother participating? Being a judge is the right path! Shen Qing's songwriting is so amazing, do you know how many singers in the industry want to curry favor with him?"

"..."

The recent frenzy of talent shows has hurt not those in the music industry, but rather those in the crossover television drama industry.

Zhang Jizhong's "The Return of the Condor Heroes," which he had meticulously prepared for over a year, was about to premiere, but it failed to make headlines.

failure!

Distressed!

We're the king of hype!

It's unacceptable that it's fallen to the point of having no buzz at all!

The bearded man puffed on his cigarette, deep in thought, the song "Peerless Under Heaven" playing repeatedly in his ears. "I've got it! Ask Liangying for help!"

……

Xidan, a coffee shop.

Shen Qing: "Producer Zhang, you mean you want me to help you promote 'The Return of the Condor Heroes'?"

Zhang Jizhong: "Yes! Shen Qing, my show is about to premiere. Despite Huang Xiaoming and Liu Yifei's constant promotion, it hasn't generated much buzz. It's mostly their fans cheering..."

This is indeed a big problem.

No movie, TV series, or music album can be just for fans to enjoy themselves; it must break out of its niche.

Otherwise, it is destined to have little influence.

Take "The Return of the Condor Heroes" for example. Why was Zhang Jizhong in such a hurry that he even went to Zhang's door to ask for help?
The price of second-run broadcasting rights is determined by viewership ratings.

If the premiere of "The Return of the Condor Heroes" on Qilu TV is a flop and the ratings fall short of expectations, then the eager clients will hold off on making money or drastically lower the price.

The bearded man felt uneasy at the thought of being harassed by the acquisition directors of various TV stations; those old women were no good people at all!
now.

The bearded man said, "Qing, I've been invited by Jiangsu TV's 'Absolute Singing' to record a few episodes. If you sign up for 'Absolute Singing,' I can make sure you win the championship!"

Shen Qing thought to himself: This old man is really shrewd!
You think you can get me to work my life for you with just an empty promise?!

Besides, "Absolute Singing" isn't a very prestigious show.

In Shen Qing's memory, "Absolute Singing" was held for several sessions, but it didn't produce any stars at all; it was all just little Karami.

It's nowhere near as good as "Go! Good Boys!" and "Super Boy".

The main reason is that Jiangsu Satellite TV only focuses on organizing the competition and does not provide any follow-up support.

If Jiangsu TV were to establish a talent agency to train them, it might be able to cultivate a few singers like Su Xing and Chen Chusheng.

Shen Qing: "Producer Zhang, I am interested in participating in the talent show, but not very much. The contestants don't seem to be very strong..."

Zhang Jizhong was about to say that young people are just ignorant and arrogant, but he shut up in the blink of an eye. "Damn it, there's no way to refute this kid."

Big Beard also bought Zhang Liangying's compilation album, and he's been listening to it a lot these past few months, finding it excellent.

All of this was actually handled by Shen Qing alone!!!
Isn't that outrageous?
Even Jay Chou isn't that awesome, is he?
He also needs the assistance of Vincent Fang, Michael Lin, and others...

The key point is that the theme song of The Return of the Condor Heroes, "Peerless Under Heaven," was also created by this kid in 20 minutes. Zhang Jizhong had never seen such incredible talent.

Half an hour later~
Shen Qing and the bearded man said goodbye at the door.

The bearded man said, "Shen Qing, I'll have Liu Yifei reveal your participation in 'Go! Good Boys!' first, and then have Huang Xiaoming go to Shanghai to accompany you to register... As for the matter of being a judge, I'll do my best to help you... But whether you're a judge or a contestant, let's first spread the word that you're participating in 'Go! Good Boys!' It will benefit both you and me..."

Shen Qing: "Okay!"

Just as Shen Qing and Zhang Liangying arrived near the parking lot, they suddenly bumped into a young man carrying a guitar. This man was none other than Zhao Lei.

a few days later.

Shen Qing and Zhang Liangying flew to Shanghai.

Zhao Lei flew to Chengdu.

……

PS: The transition chapters haven't been fully developed... The protagonist will later participate in the production of "Go! Boys" as a judge and consultant. It would be too beneath him not to be a contestant.

In addition, Jane Zhang's first album is also being developed simultaneously and is expected to be released around April or May, around the same time as albums by artists such as Cai Yilin.
