Chapter 445 Ace Choreographer and Top Idol Group

Chapter 445 Ace Choreographer and Top Idol Group
The first episode of "The Great Master of Dance" can be described as a visual feast. Once it was broadcast, it won unanimous praise and praise from the entire Internet and major media in China and South Korea, and the ratings directly reached the top.

This is inevitable.

Since "Supergirl", there have been a lot of music variety shows at home and abroad over the years, and the audience is a little fatigued. Now a dance variety show suddenly appeared, which is naturally refreshing.

What's more, the service, choreography and post-production special effects, at least at the moment, are simply unparalleled. No one comes close.

Well, anyone can see that the budget for the production of this program is raging, and it is not surprising that such a popular program is produced.

As for the dance itself, there is no need to repeat it. The twelve dances including "Long Song Xing" and "Long Drum Dance" are all classics. The dance types cover classical dance, folk dance, modern dance, and folk dance. Ballet, hip-hop, jazz, Latin, all dances have their own characteristics, making people dizzying.

Of course, in order to better balance the weight of dance types, and also to achieve a show effect that appeals to both refined and popular tastes, "The Great Master of Dance" generally only divides dances into two categories: traditional dances and modern dances, each category has 6 dances quota.

Classical dances such as "Long Song Xing" and "Long Drum Dance" national dances belong to the category of traditional dances. In addition, ballet, jazz, Latin and other dances are classified into traditional dances according to their artistic expressions. , and some will be classified as modern dance.

In the category of modern dance, in addition to professional modern dances of various themes, there are mainly hip-hop dances and hot dances represented by modern Korean dances, among which hip-hop dances include many sub-categories of dance.

So whether it is Yangchun Baixue or Xialiba people, there are all in this program, and it meets the needs of audiences of different age groups and cultural classes.

This program also implements the basic principle of equal treatment. No matter which country's dance it is, the program team has given full support without hesitation, and it has well balanced the quantity and weight ratio of the dances of the two countries in the program. People don't feel that this program is biased at all.

Even the viewers who are always sensitive to citric acid can’t fault it after watching the show. While they are full of admiration, they are also deeply proud. They feel that Chinese dancers and dancers can be on the big stage of China, and the stage effect and momentum are not weak. On the other side of the Celestial Dynasty, it is really a very long-sighted thing.

After filling up some kind of distorted inferiority complex, Korean audiences and keyboard warriors finally became normal mentality, and began to praise the dancers and dancers in Huaguo, which even triggered a popularization of Chinese history and traditional culture. During the discussion, the 81-year-old Professor Sun Ying has also become a great dancer highly respected by Korean audiences.

Well, everyone is happy and harmonious, and just subtly accept the baptism of the Chinese culture, that's fine.

The solution to many problems does not necessarily require reasoning and arguing with people, nor does it have to be confrontational. Mingxiu plank road secretly hides Chencang, beats the east, beats the side drum, boils the frog in warm water, kills the heart first, and makes the best use of the situation to make use of the evil. The enemy... the effect may be better.

As Fang Jie's wife, Li Qing more or less had the same awareness.

But compared to Fang Jie, Li Qing has a more devout attitude towards dance art.

In her opinion, who has not only deeply understood and mastered the creative concept of Korean modern hot dance, but also professionally learned and absorbed many dance types and related cultures in the country. After the traditional dance is improved and fashioned, its development potential should be far greater than that of Korean dance.

This point of view was shared with Fang Jie on the phone eight years ago when she was about to return to China.

This is not a denial of Korean dance, nor is it a national complex, but just out of love and piety for the art of dance, it is objectively felt that many dances of Huaguo and other art forms are on the international stage. It should have its own status, and more people should understand the traditional culture of Huaguo.

Although Li Qing's idea is slightly different from Fang Jie's in terms of original intention, the purpose is basically the same - to promote and export the country's traditional culture and art, and to enhance its international influence and status.

In fact, she is not the only one who has the same idea as her.

Whether in this life or in the previous life, some idol idols who "export to domestic sales" often talk about this idea, but they may be busy making fans and making money, and they don't have the time to settle down to do specific things. On the contrary, some Internet celebrities and UP owners have made some achievements.

However, compared with Li Qing, these people still have a certain gap in professionalism.

When it comes to the understanding and mastery of Korean dance, Li Qing, who has been abroad for two years and entered the Korean Wave system for in-depth study and learning, is more professional.

After returning to China, she entered a professional college and studied domestic dance for eight years.

Although due to work reasons during this period, he was unable to be proficient and diligent, and was unable to complete the difficult dance moves of some top professional dancers, but his understanding and comprehension of dance art and the accumulation and precipitation of relevant cultural theoretical knowledge have reached the level of a high standard.

During this period, she served as the chairman of JYP Entertainment and the executive president of Boiling Entertainment. She has a clear understanding of various routines and artist training systems in the entertainment circles of the two countries, and she is also very clear about what kind of performances are popular among ordinary people.

Moreover, she is in charge of the two major entertainment companies in the two countries, and all resources related to funds, personnel, service, and behind-the-scenes production can be said to be at her disposal, and she has no worries at all.

Of course, what's more important is that beside her is a husband who is well versed in various routines...

In short, these comprehensive backgrounds are the advantages that idols at home and abroad, or professional dancers, or even professional educational institutions do not have.

So even though Li Qing was not as thick and dark as Fang Jie thought, the dance works she produced completed the goal of cultural strategic output beyond expectations.

The second episode of "The Great Master of Dance" still premiered on the weekend prime time, but with the strong support of the first episode, more viewers watched this variety show, and many passers-by who were not interested in dancing at all, also Join in the fun and sit in front of the TV or computer.

This program is no longer a performance show, but an official competition with a competitive nature.

However, compared to other competitive reality shows, the show "The Master of Dance" is a little less competitive.

There are [-] dances in each episode, and the judges, audience, media, and entertainment companies will score. The top three choreographers with comprehensive scores will automatically have the qualification to lead the performance of the next episode.

The remaining 9 places will be determined by the program group based on multiple considerations among the many dances submitted for application, such as the overall quality of the dance, the progress of the preparation, the weight quota of the dance, and so on.

That is to say, the higher the comprehensive score, the more chances the choreographer will have to show his face, and the easier it is to become famous, and he will naturally become a well-known dance master.

You must know that in order to expand the influence of the program "Dancing Master", in addition to Boiling Video and Ark Video's first broadcast on the entire network, provincial satellite TV and Korean TV stations also premiered at the same time, and the copyright fee was only a symbolic fee of 1 yuan. .

That is to say, the program is given to the TV station for free.

The free mode has always been a very rogue routine.

All TV stations have obtained the free premiere rights, and this premiere rights are worthless, but most TV stations have to kill their own programs during the precious weekend prime time, and instead broadcast the boiling entertainment "The Great Master of Dancing Forest".

Because if you don’t broadcast such a trump card or even phenomenal variety show, others will broadcast it, and then your own ratings will be at the bottom, so a "prisoner effect" will be formed, and you will have to scramble to swallow this free "candy" , uniformly expand the influence of "The Greatest Dancer".

Although Boiling Entertainment lost the copyright fee, Fang Jie didn't care about this money at all, and he could earn it back through other means, or even earn more.

The routine here is simply that the business model is different. In the past, I made money by selling intellectual property rights, such as copyright and technology fees. Now I share intellectual property rights to the public for free. After attracting a large number of popularity and users, I rely on other value-added services. Making money is the so-called traffic economy.

As for how to operate it, it is more complicated, so let's not mention it for the time being.

It’s just that the whole network and all platforms are exposing the variety show "The Great Master of Dancing Forest", and the publicity effect it brings is even more powerful than the Spring Festival Gala. Let alone getting a ranking in the show, even if you are lucky enough to be on stage to make a face, Even if he is not famous all over the country, he can become a moderate celebrity in his hometown.

No matter how bad it is to hold a dance training class in my hometown with the qualifications of "Dancing Master", I don't have to worry about the source of students, and I will definitely earn a lot of money.

This is also the fundamental reason why the "national teams" such as major professional colleges, dance theaters, and famous dancers are willing to put down their personalities and participate in variety shows. It is foreseeable that the enrollment of Beijing Dance will be extremely hot next year. This is the school's political achievements what!
In addition to gaining huge fame and status, excellent choreographers can also get high bonuses and rewards. There are rewards in every issue. As long as they have the ability to get the top three results, counting money can be counted until hand cramps, which can be described as fame and fortune. .

Therefore, this program has a competitive nature, but the competitive process is usually completed in the stage of the audition stage. The process is very intense and even cruel. It is the most difficult thing to get the qualification to go on stage.

As for the ranking after being on stage, it is secondary. For many choreographers or dance organizations, being on stage is a victory, because under the careful packaging and production of the program group, the stage effect will be full. What is the ranking? one's man meat is another man's poison.

Regardless of whether the competition is strong or weak, there is still a ranking in the clan.

Therefore, compared with the first episode of the second episode of "Dancing Master", the biggest difference is that the main venue is full of judges and audiences.

In the central area below the stage is a professional judging panel, with as many as 80 people. Apart from a dozen of industry leaders such as Sun Ying and Zheng Zaiwan, these professional judges are all choreographers who are about to participate and are preparing for the competition. .

The scores they scored represent the professionalism of the choreographer and his dance, as well as the reputation in the circle.

But this is not the only criterion for scoring.

In Fang Jie's view, paying too much attention to professionalism can easily lead to a dead end and become a work that is too high-brow to be understood by the public. This is not conducive to cultural output and does not meet the needs of cultural strategies.

This is not to say that works of art with high style and even philosophical heights are not important. On the contrary, they are very important and can be used to embody cultural heritage in the international arena. They don’t need to be understood by ordinary people. Not being aware of the severity is the correct posture.

For example, foreign classical opera, classical ballet, and domestic Peking opera exist in this way. Although most people can’t understand it, they can accept it occasionally. They just eat this set.

It's just that, as a variety show, the public's intention is to have fun, not to receive the influence of elegant art, otherwise it's better to let the audience watch the official dance competition.

Therefore, in addition to the professional jury, this show also has an audience jury. They sit in the west stand and the first three rows of the venue, with as many as 600 people.

Most of them are young college students, and most of them are handsome and beautiful, and they come from countless colleges and universities in Jiangcheng.

Another small group of people are bloggers, anchors, Internet celebrities, UP hosts, etc. on the Internet. They know the preferences of netizens best, and their perception of dance represents the tastes and preferences of the public to a certain extent.

Of course, the audience present is only a very small part of the audience judging panel. The real public judging is the audience of the whole network. During the broadcast of each program, they can vote for their favorite dance programs through the Internet.

Therefore, the audience jury at the scene is more of an audience support, and its main function is to increase the average appearance of the scene, bring rhythm, and enhance the atmosphere of the scene, rather than scoring the dance.

The on-site media jury and commercial jury were concentrated on the east side of the stand.

The judging criteria of the media jury is difficult to say. The mainstream media may pay more attention to metaphysical things, such as cultural thought, spiritual civilization construction, etc. Internet media must pay more attention to entertainment value and communication value. The programs with more traffic are more their favorites.

The commercial jury is composed of high-level representatives of major entertainment companies, brokerage companies, entertainment video websites, film and television drama directors or production companies, advertising companies, commercial performance companies and other commercial organizations.

What they value is economic value and talent value, rather than artistic value. Works that cannot be cashed out in the short term, choreographers or dancers who cannot help them make money, no matter how good they are, no matter how awesome they are, they can boast a few words, anyway. It doesn't require money, but after the stage, it will only be respected and kept at a distance.

As in the program preview, Fang Jie, the chief planner of the program, did not attend the live program recording. He was neither a guest of the program nor a member of any jury. Liao Shunbin was the representative of the business jury of Boiling Entertainment.

This is a great pity, especially for Fang Jie's countless fans, it is like a bolt from the blue.

Fortunately, the quality of the program itself was good enough. Even without Fang Jie, the sneer, the audience was still satisfied, and the resentment in their hearts disappeared.

The opening of the second issue of "The Great Master of Dance" is still a dance show of performance nature, which means that there are actually thirteen dances in this program.

The opening dance show of this issue is a large-scale live dance poem "Along the River During the Qingming Festival" jointly selected by Nanjing Song and Dance Troupe and Xiangjiang Song and Dance Troupe.

Just look at the name, dare to call it a dance poem, use "A Picture of Shanghe on the Qingming Festival" as the base line dance, and win in many dance shows at the national team level, and become the opening show to perform dances, you can imagine how awesome this show is force.

Among other things, "Surfing the River During the Qingming Festival" was filmed on location in the film city, and it was also shot in one shot to the end. There were hundreds of dancers participating in the performance, and the number of dancers in charge of the main dance was There are hundreds of people.

The entire project is 15 minutes long and costs 400 million yuan!
In short, this is actually a miniature dance drama movie. If the program group did not promise to reimburse all expenses, the two song and dance troupes would not dare to do this.

The whole dance almost completely simulated the scenes in the painting "A Picture of Shanghe on the Qingming Festival". The dancers acted as all kinds of common people in the painting. Next, he dances various styles of dances that fit his identity as a commoner.

This form of live dance performance is very similar to the "City of Philharmonic" that won the Academy Award in the previous life. The difference is that "Surfing the River During the Qingming Festival" is a shrunken Chinese version of "City of Philharmonic" that embodies the folk culture of the Song Dynasty. ".

In the final climax of the dance, all the main dancers appeared on the big stage. Under the dreamy lighting and dance beauty effect, they showed a wave of powerful dance together, which attracted the audience and judges couldn't help but cheer. At the same time, they also stood up and gave thunderous applause.

Interestingly, in the behind-the-scenes footage and stage interviews after the dance, the name Fang Jie was mentioned many times by the choreographers and dancers, because he provided the idea for the live-action shooting.

In fact, this kind of creativity is not unexpected by others, but they dare not think about it, because it costs too much money, and thanking Fang Jie is actually thanking him for his MONEY. If he is not willing to be taken advantage of, the program "Surfing the River at Qingming Festival" will definitely be very popular. Big discounts.

Fang Jie didn't want to be taken advantage of, no matter how rich he was, he would burn 400 million for one dance, and it would be a lie to say that he didn't feel sorry for him.

It’s nothing more than perfectionism, and he suffered from obsessive-compulsive disorder. When judging and selecting programs, he saw a dance program like "Along the River at Qingming Festival", and felt that his life would not be complete enough if he didn't make it a movie and turn it into a large-scale live transition dance.

When such an opening show was taken out, everyone was shocked, and they directly compared the first episode of the show.

Originally, the first episode of the program was shocking enough. A week later, the entire network is still watching the videos of the previous episode over and over again, especially the short dance video of "Long Song Xing", which has more than 12 billion views Second-rate.

As a result, as soon as the second episode of the program opened, there was another Wang Zhan of "A Picture of Shanghe during the Qingming Festival".

Fortunately, these are all performances, and they don't participate in the competition, otherwise no one else will have anything to do.

After the opening show, the official competition began.

It is impossible for the formal dance to be as large as "Along the River During the Qingming Festival". After all, "Along the River During the Qingming Festival" is a special product of someone's obsessive-compulsive disorder.

All the dances are basically carried out in the way of "Long Song Xing", that is, first, the behind-the-scenes footage is played, explaining the background and culture of the dance formation, the selection of soundtracks, the preparation of service and the interview environment of the choreographer, and the creation of his own works. idea.

The big screen on the stage will simultaneously play the behind-the-scenes footage, and then play the pre-produced dance video with shooting special effects.

During the dance transition, the dancers join the transition video, step onto the live stage, and perform the final dance performance in front of the on-site judges.

After the performance, the choreographer will take his own dance troupe or lead dancer to accept a simple interview with the host, and the on-site judges will evaluate and score.

The purpose of doing this is to improve the efficiency of program recording, improve the quality and effect of the program, and it is also the most fair and reasonable way of review.

After all, "The Great Master of Dance" assesses the choreographer, not the dancer. Any flaws in the dance caused by the dancer are the responsibility of the dancer and have nothing to do with the choreographer.

The judges only consider the professionalism, popularity, entertainment value, and commercial value of the dance, rather than how the dancers perform on the spot. That does not represent the level of the choreographer. Only by reviewing dance video works can we see the real background and artistic aesthetic gap between choreographers.

The competition system of the show is divided into two parts: the first half is the stage of 6 traditional dances in turn, and the second half is the stage of modern dance.

The traditional dances of this program still maintain a very high standard, including the classical dance "Beauty Walk" from the Chongqing Song and Dance Troupe, the folk dance "Fire Dance" from the Yang Liping Modern Dance Troupe, and the folk dance "Donglai Crane Dance" from the Seoul Song and Dance Troupe Wait.

Domestic traditional dances are not explained, the key is that they can't be explained clearly in a few words.

The Korean folk dance "Dongnae Crane Dance" is relatively easy to explain. It is one of the masquerade dances in Busan, South Korea. The actors wear black gauze caps and white robes with extremely long cuffs and dance like cranes. Characterized by posture, it expresses the temperament and belief of Confucian scholars.

The reason why the Seoul Song and Dance Troupe took part in the competition was because they watched the first episode of the show, and then found that the show could be a hit. Of course, the official reason was to promote Korean traditional culture, which could not be compared to Huaguo, so they took the green channel temporarily .

Moreover, "Donglai Crane Dance" is actually a relatively mature folk dance of theirs. It is not innovative, or it has nothing to do with the choreographer. Otherwise, it would be impossible to come up with such a work in such a short period of time. suspected of cheating.

In this regard, the attitude of the program group is to turn a blind eye, otherwise, in the traditional dance category, there are almost no innovative dances that South Korea can produce. So helpless.

However, in the modern dance session in the second half, the Korean side was obviously much stronger, and all the big names in the industry appeared on stage.

Of course, this so-called industry leader only refers to Korean modern dance.

First of all, for the dance troupe tool people, the Korean entertainment company sent the ace girl group "Girls' Generation" and the popular boy groups "SHINee" and "BIGBANG".

Girls' Generation, a girl group, everyone on earth knows it without explaining it.

It is worth mentioning that the members of Girls' Generation in this life are not exactly the same as those in the previous life, because they are the girl group of JYP Entertainment in this life, not SM Entertainment, so the niece of SM Entertainment boss Li Xiuman is not among them.

This is of course Fang Jie’s coquettish operation. Li Qing started planning when she was still in Korea. In 07, JYP Entertainment’s Girls’ Generation debuted at the peak. She made a lot of money for JYP Entertainment. Now she is a top girl in Southeast Asia. group.

Such a top-notch girl group actually came to the "Dancing Master" program, and they danced their own song "oh! ", for Korean fans, it is definitely a great surprise.

As for the boy group "SHINee" under SM Entertainment, they were not very famous in China in their previous lives, but they are quite popular in Korea.

His debut work "Replay" is "Sister is so beautiful", which can be said to have become famous in the first battle. In many Korean variety shows in later generations, whenever beautiful women appear on the stage, they often regard it as the BGM, and the dance of this song is even more popular than the song. Countless people scrambled to imitate.

The two idol groups just stood on the stage, and the eardrum-piercing screams sounded from the audience jury.

But it's a pity that no matter how awesome they are, they are just tool people in the show "The Great Master of Dance", and they don't even have the chance to speak on stage.

Because the real protagonist is the choreographer behind them.

One is Lia Kim, chief choreographer of JYP Entertainment, most of Girls' Generation's magical dances are from her hands.

The other is a Japanese-born choreographer, Rino Nakasone, who was famous as a back-up dancer for "Guan Renee Stephen", "Britney Spears", and "Janena Jackson", and is currently a member of SM Entertainment. The chief choreographer, the dance of "My Sister Is So Beautiful" came from her.

In addition to these two, YG Entertainment is not to be outdone, and sent its own chief choreographer Parris Goebel. Out of My Life", the representative work of boy group "BIGBANG" "BANG! BANG! BANG!", which she choreographed.

All in all, the three major entertainment companies in South Korea have brought out their ace choreographers and ace idol groups in order to support the stage when traditional dance is obviously weak, and then come out on top.

Well, although two of the choreographers are not Korean, it seems unfair to Huaguo, but this is just like in reality or in the game world, foreigners have always liked to bully others in groups, and Huaguo has always been It is a normal operation to pick more and not to be weaker than the downwind.

Besides, Li Qing is also one of the participating choreographers of this episode. Fang Jie, who is in charge of everything behind the scenes, can't sit idly by and let these people bully his wife.

You are awesome, then I will come up with even more awesome things to scare you to death!
