I’m Really a Superstar

noon.

There was a famous belly popping shop in the city. Zhang Ye was wearing sunglasses and Wu Mo was wearing a suit. After dinner, the two of them walked out of the shop with belly full of belly.

Wu Mo said with a smile: "We just negotiated a contract worth 100 million yuan, how about we eat 45 yuan worth of fried belly and sesame cakes for lunch together?"

"It's better to love eating than to eat delicious." Zhang Ye felt very comfortable eating.

"That's true." Wu Mo said, "I really like this bite."

Zhang Ye said: "Okay, then I will go back and ask someone to prepare the contract."

Wu Mo opened the car door and said, "Okay, let's go and I'll take you back?"

Zhang Ye waved his hand, "You go about your business. I have to do some errands. Your naming fee has put me under pressure. I also have to contact the guests of the show as soon as possible. I have to find some big names. That’s fine, otherwise I won’t be able to hold up the scene, and I’ll be sorry for your 100 million naming fee.”

Wu Mo said before leaving: "I'll leave the advertising slogans to you too, right?"

"No problem." Zhang Ye said without hesitation, "I'll think it over for you before recording the show. When the time comes, your TV commercials will also include the slogan 'Drink Brain Gold, Support The Voice'. Let's promote each other." , let’s discuss these details together when the time comes.”

Wu Mo said: "Okay."

In fact, the most intuitive assessment of the level of a new program is the amount of investment.

Invest hundreds of millions? It's just an ordinary size.

Invest 20 million? It should be considered medium-sized.

Invest 30 to 40 million? That's the big scale.

What if you invest more than 100 million? This is definitely going to be huge! On this earth, not to mention the field of singing talent shows, it is also the field of all variety shows and televisions. It is almost impossible to invest more than 100 million to produce a program. No TV station dares to play such a big game, and no team dares to take such a big risk. There is no risk. After all, the current common level of naming fees is only 10 to 20 million. It is impossible to earn back such an investment. In other words, the investment and return may not be directly proportional. All investments of 30 to 40 million to build a TV show are a waste of money. A huge production fee.

But Zhang Ye is going to play a big game this time. The production fee of "The Voice", Zhang Ye's inner estimate, is not even 80 million, which is absolutely unaffordable. Now that the naming rights are sold, Zhang Ye has even more expectations. I am going to spend a total of 120 million in real terms. I will not play any imaginary things, but spend all my real money. I will create a super large-scale singing talent show according to this standard!

equipment? Want the best top quality!

stage? Want the best design!

publicity? Ask for the most expensive time slot!

Player? Give the best treatment and room and board!

As for the guest mentors on the show...of course they also need the best and most gorgeous lineup in the industry!

As soon as Wu Mo left, Zhang Ye's phone rang. The number displayed was his own office phone number. No need to ask, the only one who dared to use his own office phone number was Chenchen. Other employees didn't have the courage.

"Hello?"

"Zhang Ye."

"Chenchen."

"When will you come back."

"I have something to do outside and have to go back in the afternoon. By the way, I almost forgot about you. You and your Aunt Qiqi go to dinner and ask her to take you to the cafeteria. Don't wait for me."

"……oh.

"

"Be obedient to the unit."

"I know." No

After comforting Chenchen, Zhang Ye rubbed his hands eagerly, and faces began to flash in his mind. He was not going to go back to the work now. Now that he had money and confidence, of course he had to work hard to get things done, and then The candidate for the guest mentor has been decided. In that case, all the arrangements before production will be almost complete, and his task will basically be completed.

Who to look for?

Who is more suitable?

Celebrities with average fame will definitely not be able to do it, and those who are not professional singers will definitely not be able to do it.

Zhang Ye was very thoughtful about this matter, and when he decided to prepare the program "The Voice", he already had some ideas in mind, but he didn't take action when he had no money. Now With such a big budget in hand, he is so wealthy. Zhang Ye can completely accomplish things that others would never dare to think of, such as inviting celebrities that others simply cannot or have no money to invite!

So, he made the first call.

Zhang Xia is a famous singing artist in the Republic. She has won the highest award of Bel Canto in China. I don’t know how many people grew up listening to Zhang Xia’s songs. She is one of the oldest singing artists in the country. It goes without saying in terms of reputation and qualifications. Although not many young people like Grandma Zhang nowadays, there is no doubt about Zhang Xia's status and strength in the music world. She has been singing songs for a lifetime, and in terms of basic skills Compared with those kings and queens, Zhang Xia is a few steps ahead of them. Grandma Zhang undoubtedly has too much experience in the use of her voice, the adjustment of her tone, and her understanding of music. The most important thing is that she does not just sing. Bel canto, such as "Female Flower" written by Zhang Ye for her and Zhang Yuanqi. Grandma Zhang Xia can also master pop music in a unique way. In addition, she and Zhang Ye have been friends for a long time, so from any perspective, Zhang Ye's " The team of "The Voice of the Republic" also needs a place for Grandma Zhang.

Toot.

Toot.

It's open over there.

"Xiao Zhang?" Zhang Xia answered the phone. She might be eating, as there was the sound of the range hood over there, "Wait while I turn off the fire and cook."

After a while.

Zhang Xia smiled and said, "Tell me, Xiao Zhang."

Zhang Ye said: "How about you eat first?"

"Say first, I'm not in a hurry." Zhang Xia said kindly.

Zhang Ye was satisfied and said, "Grandma Zhang, CCTV and I recently created a program called "The Voice of the Republic"."

"I heard about it and read the news." Zhang Xia said: "I even said that I would give you a call during the past few days to ask. Do you really want to do a talent show that only listens to sounds?"

"Yes, what do you think?" Zhang Ye asked.

Zhang Xia smiled and said, "I think it's pretty good. It doesn't matter whether it's niche or not, and it doesn't matter what the ratings are. At least I think this program is meaningful. Compared with other singing talent shows, It has a lot of positive energy and is relatively healthy. Just do it, I support you, don’t listen to what others say about this and that.”

Zhang Ye was happy, "What I want is your words, Grandma Zhang. Then you can't just support me with your words."

Zhang Xia was stunned for a moment. She just said it casually and didn't expect Zhang Ye to actually answer it. "Haha, how can I support it? Repost it to you on Weibo? Or help you promote it to the circle? Or maybe you like me? Which apprentice is there? Do you want my students to be on your show?"

Zhang Ye said: "No, I would like to invite you to join "The Voice of the Republic" as one of the four guest mentors. Is your schedule available?"

Zhang Xia's tone was surprising, "Oh? Why did you invite me? I have a bit of fame, but my popularity is not as great as that of young singers today. Their fans easily reach tens of millions. Talent shows like yours are just for young people." People watch it, right? Most of the contestants are pop musicians, right?"

Zhang Ye said: "Your popularity is still low? How many people of our generation don't know you? How many parents and relatives of our generation didn't grow up listening to your songs? If your brand is still young, There is no one in the country with a bigger brand name. As for music, our place is not necessarily all about pop music. Our stage welcomes all contestants and all music forms. And as I said, we only focus on the sound. program, naturally in the aspect of voice, our column needs a tutor who has in-depth research and experience in voice, voice and singing skills. You have been dealing with voice your whole life, and there is no one more suitable than you!"

Zhang Xia smiled bitterly and said: "I am already in my seventies or eighty, and the children have been calling me to retire. Now, I just can't let go of singing. I have stopped answering other announcements for a long time. To tell you the truth, I am here." In fact, two singing talent shows approached me last month and at the end of last year and wanted to invite me to participate, but I declined them both. I have a certain resistance to these TV variety shows and talent shows."

Zhang Yeye said: "Hey, Grandma Zhang, you are not particular about it. Just now you said that my new program is meaningful and that you support me. How come you are contradicting it again in the blink of an eye? You said that you can't give up singing. Our new program This program is a pure singing program. It wants singers to return to their roots. This does not conflict with your attitude. You are here to support new people and help discover and cultivate those good singers and good voices who have been ignored. This is a great event of immeasurable merit, and it is a great plan to cultivate good talents for the singing career."

Zhang Xia: "..."

Zhang Ye put on his hat and said: "Without you, we young people would really not be able to do our job. In the music world, your experience is the most valuable asset. Without you to protect these juniors and contestants, it would be very easy for them." Going the wrong way and going in the wrong direction.”

Zhang Xia also laughed out loud as she listened, "You kid, you're talking too much."

Zhang Ye said: "Grandma Zhang, as the general director of the "Voice of the Republic" column group, I once again formally invite you to join the alliance."

After pondering for a few seconds, Zhang Xia said, "You have already put your hat on my head so high. I can't refuse even if I want to. Okay, I agree."

Zhang Ye smiled happily and said, "That's great."

Zhang Xia said: "But let me tell you first, what kind of fraud is there? I will not participate in the matter of deciding the champion. I only listen to the voice and say whatever is said."

"To tell you the truth, Grandma Zhang, what I want is for you to tell the truth. I promise you that as long as I am in the column group for one day, there will never be any secret operations in my new show! If I find out, I Deal with each discovery one by one! There is no room for negotiation!" Zhang Ye assured.

Zhang Xia was very satisfied and said: "Okay."

Zhang Ye suddenly thought, "By the way, we haven't discussed the membership fee yet..."

"Just give it to me." Zhang Xia seemed indifferent to this.

But even though people said that, Zhang Ye couldn't be indifferent, "Last time those two columns invited you, how much did they pay you?"

Zhang Xia said: "A few million, I can't remember exactly."

Zhang Ye was very happy, "They want to invite you even if they have millions? They are too insincere. So Grandma Zhang, let's settle for 10 million plus the alliance fee. Do you think it's okay?"

Zhang Xia yelled: "What do you think I am, Xiao Zhang? Why do I use so much?"

Zhang Ye smiled and said: "You are too humble."

"It's not necessary, it's useless." Because of the friendship with the song "Female Flower", Zhang Xia never regarded Zhang Ye as an outsider. "A few million is enough. Talent shows in the industry generally have this kind of fee, and there is no alliance fee. What else can you do?" Ten million? You CCTV are notoriously stingy, why are you so rich this time?"

Zhang Ye said: "They are them, and I am me. I pulled the budget this time, and I am responsible for the column. I decide everything. Ten million, and I will let someone make the contract later. Grandma Zhang, we are personal friends." It’s a personal relationship, business matters are business matters, let’s just settle it.” (To be continued) [ ] If you like this work, you are welcome to come to Chuangshi to vote for recommendations and monthly votes.
