Chapter 1021 "I Am a Singer" Starts Broadcasting

When the "Interstellar" crew returned from Iceland, the time had entered April 2013.

At this time, the film market in the mainland is still dominated by "Emperor Capital Meets Seattle".

"Emperor Meets Seattle", which has been released for the third week, strongly killed the three new domestic films released in the first week of April, while the two Hollywood films released last week, "Jack the Giant Slayer" and "Oz and the Wizard of Oz" It's not too much of a threat either.

And in the next week, the chick movie "Break Up Contract" starring Da Meitang and Peng Yuyan, and "Kintaro's Happy Life" based on the TV series will be released.

But looking at the strength of "The Imperial Capital Meets Seattle", I am afraid that these two films will not have much influence on it.

The real test of "Empire Meets Seattle" is the Hollywood sci-fi blockbuster "Special Forces 4: Total Counterattack" released in the third week of April. With "Special Forces 3: Rise of Cobra" ahead of it, this sci-fi blockbuster is still highly anticipated of.

At the same time, in the variety show market, there is quite a storm.

After Haotian Production teamed up with Jiangsu and Zhejiang Satellite TV to create the phenomenal variety show "The Voice of China" last year, Shonan Satellite TV, which has always been the big brother of variety shows, couldn't sit still.

So Shonan Satellite TV found Hong Tao, who was producing "The Great Variety Show", and asked him to compete with Jiangsu and Zhejiang Satellite TV's "The Voice of China" since he produced a variety show.

And what Hong Tao took a fancy to was "I Am a Singer", a music competition show in South Korea, which is more advanced in production of variety shows in China!
In March 2011, after "I Am a Singer" was aired in South Korea, it was praised by the president, and the performing arts careers of many long-lost and powerful singers were reborn, and the local music scene in South Korea was almost reshuffled.

The seven songs sung by seven well-known singers in each episode dominated almost all music rankings, so much so that record companies began to jointly protest, thinking that this greatly disrupted the pop music ecology and left idol groups with nowhere to escape.

It is precisely because "I Am a Singer" caused a wave of music frenzy in South Korea that Hong Tao was selected to compete against Jiangsu and Zhejiang Satellite TV's "The Voice of China", which is also a music audition.

However, when Hong Tao led his team to South Korea to obtain the mainland copyright of "I Am a Singer", he found that someone had already taken the lead.

And this one-step company has once again become Haotian Productions of the mainland's top variety show production company with "The Voice of China"!

Because the stage gave Hong Tao a deadly order to compete with Jiangsu and Zhejiang Satellite TV, and time was tight, and there was no extra time for Hong Tao to investigate other projects.

So Hong Tao wanted MSE, the owner of the copyright of "I Am a Singer", to have one marriage and two marriages.

As a result, MSE directly told Hong Taofang that the major shareholder of the company was Haotian Entertainment North America Group.

Hong Tao was stunned at first, and didn't understand what it meant, but he finally understood when he got a reminder. Isn't this the company of Chen Hao in North America.

That is to say, "I Am a Singer" originally belonged to Haotian, and he wanted to compete with Haotian's production, isn't that whimsical.

It seems that the copyright is out of reach, but after Hong Tao thinks about it, the station just wants to have a variety show with high ratings, and the production level of Haotian production is considered the top in the industry.

If it is produced by Haotian, the quality of "I Am a Singer" should be guaranteed. At that time, it is enough to win the right to broadcast "I am a Singer" on the TV station.

So, Hong Tao hastened to go back to China to find Long Danny, the general manager of Haotian Production.

The two are old acquaintances, and they both stayed at Shonan Satellite TV before, so the chat went smoothly.

Originally, Haotian produced "I Am a Singer" because it wanted to cooperate with TV stations other than Jiangsu and Zhejiang Satellite TV. After all, Haotian has so many partners, so it must have its own way of balance.

It may not be good for Haotian to let a certain family be too strong.

Therefore, Haotian Productions was planning to cooperate with Shonan Satellite TV, and it happened that Hong Tao himself came to the door, so the cooperation between the two parties was finalized very quickly.

After 4 months of preparation, "I Am a Singer" will finally officially premiere on Shonan Satellite TV on April 4th.

Haotian and Shonan Satellite TV have jointly promoted "I Am a Singer" before, so the broadcast of "I Am a Singer" is still highly anticipated.

One is the leader of local satellite TV, and the other is a top production company that has produced "Happy Girls" and "The Voice of China". With the strong alliance, they naturally attracted countless attentions.

"I'm looking forward to it. The programs produced by Haotian are very good. I look forward to another surprise tonight!"

"I heard that the program group has invited Yu Quan, Huang Qishan, Sha Baoliang, Chen Ming, Huang Guanzhong, and even Qi Qin. These are all talented singers!"

"It is estimated that Shonan Satellite TV came to a tit-for-tat confrontation because of the popularity of "The Voice of China" of the other channel Jiangsu and Zhejiang Satellite TV, but I don't know if "The Voice of China" is amazing!"

……

In anticipation, "I Am a Singer" officially premiered on Shonan Satellite TV on Friday night, April 2013, 4.

"I Am a Singer" is completely imported from the program format, singer settings, host agent mode, and even the room settings where the singer is located, almost without any modification.

Even so, it also created a new genre in the history of Chinese TV variety shows - panoramic variety shows.

Every detail and every subtle reaction of the participating singers in the whole process of participating in the recording of the show, from arriving, waiting, watching other people singing, etc., is conveyed to the audience through the camera.

The show has no story, no sensationalism, only pure music, no backup dancers on stage, and no VCR before singing to show how good this singer was.

It is simply to give singers a stage, a stage equipped with a top orchestra, to let singers perform live and let the audience appreciate the purity of music.

This is why "I Am a Singer" is positioned as a "reality show".

And the seven singers selected in the first episode of the program are also capable singers, especially in the first episode, they all sang their own songs, so the stage singing effect is directly full, showing the strong strength of a true professional singer.

This is the most direct difference from "The Voice of China". The grassroots singers of "The Voice of China" brought surprises. It turns out that the masters are among the people.

And "I'm a Singer" tells everyone what is the real professional singer's strength. The long-term expectation of the audience for good voice and real performance.

It also brought some shock and amazement to the audience who have watched too many amateur singer talent shows!

The setting of the role of the agent in the show is also quite interesting, and the various torturous performances of the director when he announced the ranking made the audience want to go up and join him.

The first episode of "I Am a Singer" has real power, is funny, and is also depressing. It has a lot of new ideas, and many viewers are still unsatisfied after watching it.

""I Am a Singer" started broadcasting yesterday. The ratings of the first episode of CSM45 City.com were 1.434%. It became the champion of the ratings of the same period, with a ratings share of 6.38%. "

""I Am a Singer" takes the line of star-professional musicians, combining old, middle-aged and young people, and mixing various genres mainly pop music, and the main form is still an audition-style singing competition.

The value of the program lies in making the audience on the spot and in front of the TV believe that the essence of a singer lies in singing good songs, not in miscellaneous hype and packaging.Let the sentimental singing continue to be loud and clear, and let the singer return to his true colors. "

""I Am a Singer" gathers veteran singers, mainstays and new generation leaders in the music industry, presenting a feast of music to the audience. The cultural connotation revealed by the program, the marketing model, and the innovation of the program itself are worthy of every media People think and learn from it.”

""I Am a Singer" is quite innovative. From the selection of guests to the selection of songs, it has created an atmosphere for everyone to watch. During the show, the suspense is left to the guests, and the viewers enjoy the power to see everything.

TV people use multi-line narration, go hand in hand, cross editing, especially interspersed with the opponent's picture when others are singing, this is no longer an entertainment program, but a psychological warfare.

The singer is reduced to an ordinary person by this program. The interaction of the program is no longer the interaction between the guests and the audience in the traditional sense, but the interaction between the guests.

TV viewers enjoyed God-like omniscience for most of the time, until the final vote was announced, and the position reversal was tortured by a WeChat message on the director's mobile phone. "

……

"I Am a Singer" had a ratings of 1.434%, which was almost the same as "The Voice of China" at 1.477%.

And "I Am a Singer" was even more fortunate that it won the first place in the ratings at the same time when it started broadcasting, which is undoubtedly better than "The Voice of China" which was second at the same time.

Of course, this is related to the increasingly rich content of TV programs and the increasing popularity of the Internet and smart phones. The current 1.4% audience rating is more difficult to obtain than last year's 1.4% audience rating.

But because of this, it is more difficult for "I Am a Singer" to replicate the ratings miracle of "The Voice of China" last year.

But Haotian Production and Shonan Satellite TV are undoubtedly very happy. Of course, the title sponsors, sponsors, and those who paid for the advertisements are all very happy about this.

In particular, the evaluation and word-of-mouth of the program are very good, which makes the ratings of "I Am a Singer" have the possibility of rising continuously.

Of course, there are positive reviews and negative reviews!

""I Am a Singer" has flaws. The first is the procrastination in rhythm, which is mainly reflected in the "too noisy" part of the famous mouth acting as the manager. The existence of the famous mouth is of little significance to the singer.

Secondly, there may be situations where the audience judges look at fame votes! "

""I Am a Singer" is quite innovative because it sends stars to the PK stage. However, the contestants are well versed in the media and the camera, and they maintain their decency, kindness and thoughtfulness in the camera and in the competition almost effortlessly.

So it's hard to see mean, out-of-control contestants from "I'm a Singer," and there's no "unexpected" show that's fatally flawed.

Compared with the many outstanding singers living outside the program, the outcome of "I Am a Singer" is a bit reluctant.

In addition, the final result was voted by 500 "friends" screened according to age, era, knowledge background, music literacy and other rules, which also made this "Huashan On Sword" a little funny.

Singing, selection, and reality show are the three major selling points of "I Am a Singer".

But the contestants are not popular top-notch singers. The singers deliberately looked down on the results of the competition, as well as the unexpected reactions of singers and managers, which made this originally quite innovative show look more like a variety show than a reality show. "

……

Although there are negative voices, "I Am a Singer" is undoubtedly a success, and it is still mostly praised. This also makes Haotian Production, Shonan Satellite TV and the audience look forward to the second issue of "I Am a Singer"!
……

At the same time, after the "Interstellar" crew quietly returned to China, they continued their filming.

The scenes shot in Huaxia are mainly indoor and in the cabin of the spacecraft, especially the parts of weightlessness and space, which can be completed with the help of the 10*10*10-meter super light box in "Gravity".

For the next time, "Interstellar" will be filmed in the rented super-large studio until it is completely completed.

Chen Hao did not use green screens for all the indoor scenes and the scenes in the spacecraft cabin. When shooting the black hole scenes on the set, the crew used the 1:1 spacecraft model built before, and then used LED lights in the light box to simulate the black hole. .

When the actors perform in the spaceship, outside the window is also the cosmic scene simulated by the super-large light box.

At this time, the simulated image was also repeatedly analyzed, simulated and calculated by many physicists, astronomers and hundreds of special effects personnel.

As for the cube in the film, it was not shot on a green screen. The crew built a hypercube in a studio of more than 1000 square meters, surrounded by four sides, and then expanded to infinite number through post-production.

The hero walks through the hypercube "time tunnel" and browses all the moments on the timeline. The tunnel background is undoubtedly made by CG.

However, the green screen was not used, but Matthew McConaughey was hung in front of the Led lights on the set, and the Led light box simulated a cube for shooting.

Of course, this background also needs a more detailed CG image, which naturally requires a lot of keying and wire erasing.

"Interstellar" basically achieved the limit of real shooting. The physical special effects that cannot be shot in real shooting are physical + digital special effects, and there are almost no pure digital special effects.

Just one word: True!

""Interstellar" Scene 132, Scene 1, Shot 1, pop!"

After Zhou Runfa attacked Matthew McConaughey, he snatched their spaceship and wanted to return to the Eternity to escape, but Matthew McConaughey was rescued by the International Chapter and finally escaped from death.

They are now chasing Zhou Runfa to prevent him from reaching the Eternity first.

At this time, Zhou Runfa was driving the rover close to the Eternal and was preparing for docking.

Zhou Runfa in the camera looked up at the screen, manually controlled the joystick of the rover, and successfully completed the connection.

It's just that I heard the siren, "The docking cannot be completed."

The Wanderer and Eternity failed to dock successfully, Zhou Runfa immediately said, "Ignore!"

At the same time, the door valve was pulled, but the door did not open!

The alarm sounded again.

"Unable to start!"

Zhou Runfa heard the words and could only float to the distant computer to manually unlock the hatch.

"The door lock is released!"

Zhou Runfa heard the words and immediately came to the doorman again.

At this time Matthew McConaughey was trying to contact Zhou Runfa, "Dr. Zhou, don't open the hatch, never! Repeat, don't open the hatch.

Open the hatch, and the airlock will lose pressure, causing an explosion! "

But Zhou Runfa couldn't hear this at this time, and was about to forcibly open the hatch.

The international chapter immediately said, "Contact Dr. Zhou by radio, don't open the hatch!"

Zhou Runfa received the message, but because of the interference, he couldn't hear clearly at all. Instead, he said, "Brand, I don't know what you heard him say, but I'm going to open the hatch soon, and then I'm with you to complete the task.

from now on……"

"Okay, it's over!" Chen Hao shouted.

After Zhou Runfa finished saying "from now on", the hatch opened, which meant that Zhou Runfa was finished!

　Thanks to "Qinglian Earth" for the 100 reward!
