Poverty alleviation variety show goes to the countryside, my talent can no longer be hidden

Chapter 445: Auditions Turned into Variety Shows
The champion of the audition will directly receive a prize of 300,000!

And it’s after-tax, a one-time payment!
Compared to these 300,000, what will make everyone even crazier is yet to come - the champion of the audition will have the qualification to sing the theme song of the online movie!
This one alone made many people's eyes turn red.

Zhou Hao’s songs are 100% hits, whoever sings them will become popular!

Zhou Hao’s film and television works are 100% hits, whoever gets involved will become famous!
Although he has not yet proven himself in the field of online movies...but his historical resume is there, and any work he is involved in has never been a failure!

What does it mean when these two BUFFs are superimposed on each other?
It means soaring into the sky!

And it's not over yet.

The audition champion will have the opportunity to sign a contract with Jinghong Studio and become fellow students with Xu Lingyue, Cao Xing and others!

Crazy, completely crazy!
On the day the news was released, the number of registrations exceeded 100,000!
This is a number that almost no talent show at this stage can match.

terrible!

However, this is just the beginning. As online news and self-media marketing accounts followed suit, this wave of popularity began to snowball, and the increase in the number of registrations made Jinghong Studio sweat profusely.

The number of applicants has far exceeded the boldest estimates at the beginning, and is far beyond what the studio can handle.

I can’t hold it anymore!

While Zhou Hao was planning how to deal with the situation, people from Youying came again.

But this time, the people who came were not from the film team, but... from the variety show department.

"Take advantage of the opportunity to organize a talent show?" Zhou Hao was shocked by Youying's idea.

"Yes." The person who came to lobby for negotiations was a female executive in her forties named Fang Jing.

"The number of applicants at this stage should have exceeded what you can handle." Fang Jing said with a smile: "But if you cancel the registration scope of the audition at this time, it is likely to cause negative effects."

"So the most ideal solution now is to take advantage of the situation and come up with a talent show that can not only perfectly absorb this wave of popularity, but also select the most suitable singer for you."

Zhou Hao was a little dumbfounded. This was too much.

For the theme song of a movie, they actually organized a talent show... How exaggerated.

This is going to come true. In the future, the memories that "Those Years" will leave for the film industry may include not only the extremely high return on investment, but also this interesting story...

Although it sounds a bit absurd, it does seem feasible if you think about it carefully.

Anyway, the financial costs for producing the variety show are provided by Youying, so he doesn't need to spend a penny.

With Youying’s current channels and scale, producing an entire talent show is basically as easy as drinking water.

The ability to use money comes in handy in many places!
Most of the traffic and popularity of this variety show will be transferred to the movie "Those Years" which has not yet been born...

Under the current conditions, is there any marketing more awesome than this?
As long as the variety show becomes popular, all audiences on the Internet will have no choice but to watch "Those Years"!
Moreover, through the opportunity of this talent show, we can also take a look at whether we can dig out some good seedlings and train them, thereby expanding the depth of the artist lineup.

On the other hand, maybe I can also use this stage to sell a few more songs...

Perfect, absolutely perfect!
After thinking it over for a long time, he said, "Mr. Fang, I agree with your idea in principle, but I have conditions."

Fang Jing's face lit up with joy and she agreed immediately.

As long as I can take advantage of this huge traffic, not to mention one condition, even ten will not be a problem!

However, the next second, the smile on her face froze. "Mr. Fang, the format planning of this talent show must be done by me."

Not only Fang Jing, but all other employees of Jinghong Studio were stunned.

Boss, isn’t your business scope a bit too awesome?

Write books, scripts, songs, and make TV shows...as if that's not enough, you also want to plan variety shows?

It's really a decathlon, right?

Fang Jing also looked embarrassed. She hesitated for several times but couldn't utter a single word, as if she was constipated.

At critical moments, it still has to be Zhang Hong.

"Mr. Fang, if you think Zhou Hao is overstepping his authority... I think I need to remind you of something." Zhang Hong said slowly, "A large part of the creative planning for the previous Penguin Video show "Colorful Cloud Wind" came from Zhou Hao."

"If you don't believe it, you can go ask someone. It's not a secret."

Fang Jing was stunned for a moment, then suddenly remembered.

This person in front of us is not only a musician, writer, screenwriter and director, but has also been on variety shows!
Although it was only a short-lived appearance, his performance in that variety show was really good.

He almost single-handedly supported that somewhat boring live variety show, and was once called "The Innate Variety Show Saint" by netizens.

This guy’s sense of variety shows is really good!
"How about this." Fang Jing thought for a moment and said, "I will stay here for three days. Teacher Zhou, can you give me a basic blueprint within three days so that I can take it back for discussion and report?"

Zhou Hao nodded without hesitation, "Okay."

Seeing how confident he was, Fang Jing couldn't help but feel a little bit expectant.

Could it be that... he really has a good idea?

If that’s true, that would be great!
There are thousands of online talent shows, and all the routines have been played out, and each company can no longer come up with anything new.

Every year’s talent show variety shows have basically become the same old stuff, with nothing new to speak of.

The ratings and popularity are getting lower and lower every year. In the first few years, there were still a few stars, but the talents selected in the past two years have basically fallen into obscurity and there has been no news.

If Zhou Hao can really come up with a new idea... the online movie business should really be laid off earlier, and it would be right for such talents to come to our variety show department as soon as possible!

After seeing off Youying's people, Zhou Hao immediately began to work on the plan in seclusion.

Since it is being expanded into a talent show, it is no longer possible to limit gender, otherwise it will easily cause controversy.

Anyway, this kind of open-ended talent show is watched by many management companies, so if there are really talented people, there will be no shortage of people wanting them.

The talent show mechanism he wanted to tinker with was directly copied from the one next door in the world - "The Voice of China".

Although this program's reputation was completely ruined later on, the first three seasons were indeed quite popular and produced a large number of new singers who later became famous in the music industry.

A big part of the reason for its initial popularity came from its audition mechanism - it doesn't look at the face, it looks at the voice!
No matter whether there is any shady element involved, the concept itself is very fresh!

In this distorted Chinese entertainment industry where everything depends on looks, such a variety show that goes against the trend will definitely be a breath of fresh air!
He has no control over whether it will rot later.

But this first session, it must be a hit!
