director of the millennium

A week later, Chen Dewei got the plans for many variety shows including "The Voice of China", "Sisters Riding the Wind and Waves", "Brothers Who Make Waves", "The Voice of God", and "The Best Songs in Drama" from Wu Yuan as he wished.

Both Chen Dewei and Li Xiaoping have become accustomed to the fact that Wu Yuan can come up with some "new tricks" from time to time. They simply think that Wu Yuan has too many talents. After all, since his debut, this boss has been able to handle movies, TV series, music, and variety shows. He seems to be a natural entertainment genius.

After receiving these plans, Chen Dewei and the company's variety show department held an internal meeting and decided to produce the two programs "Sisters Riding the Wind and Waves" and "The Voice of God" first.

The former will cooperate with Mango TV, while the latter will be produced independently by Guangying Kuaibo and broadcast exclusively on the platform.

After all, "The Voice of God" only needs to invite 7-10 flying and permanent guests, and Wu Yuan also gave an invitation list, so it is still possible for Guangying Kuaibo to produce it independently.

"Sisters Who Make Waves" is different. This variety show needs to invite 30 female artists who were born at least before 1989, which means they must be at least 30 years old to meet the guest requirements, and 30 people have to be found at once.

Even in the entertainment industry where there are countless stars, it is not an easy task to find 30 female artists over 30 years old at once.

After all, not all female artists are invited to this show. Only those who have achieved success when they were young and became first- or second-tier stars, and are now out-of-date, can be invited.

What? Why not invite female artists who are no longer popular?

Which out-of-date female artist would come to this kind of talent show to try to "rise from the ashes"?

No matter how well written the plan is, it cannot change the essential fact of this program, which is to give a group of out-of-date female artists the opportunity to "debut" again.

It was unrealistic for Guangying Kuaibo to rely on its own connections to find so many female artists, so Guangying Kuaibo contacted Mango TV as soon as possible. Mango TV was also very knowledgeable and after reading the plan, they felt that it was a coincidence and quickly reached a cooperation with Guangying Kuaibo.

However, in terms of profit distribution, Guangying Kuaibo has made some concessions to a certain extent. After paying for the planning and half of the production costs, it can only get half of the profits.

There is no way. Mango TV is not stupid. They can see that only a few TV stations such as Mango TV and Blue Whale TV can undertake and produce such programs. Even if the idea comes from Guangying Kuaibo, they can only find TV stations to cooperate with. The 50% share is given by Mango TV because Guangying Kuaibo is one of the four major platforms.

You should know that Mango Channel also has its own Mango TV. They are able to connect the TV station + Internet platform channels on their own. They are the only TV station among all TV stations that does not need to rely on the Internet broadcasting platform, and they are also the most powerful one.

Even though their Mango TV only broadcasts TV series and variety shows from its own TV station, and its number of users cannot be compared with the four major platforms, it will not be strangled by the four major platforms.

The Blue Whale TV next door does not have this ability, so even though it has "Running Man", its influence has become weaker and weaker over the years, and there are signs that it is being completely suppressed by the four major platforms.

Closer to home.

After Guangying Kuaibo and Mango TV finalized their cooperation, the program team of "Sisters Riding the Wind and Waves" was formed very quickly and entered the actual preparation stage.

In today's market, if you are a step slow you will have nothing to eat. No one knows how many idol talent show variety shows will be launched next year. Even if "Sisters Riding the Wind and Waves" takes a differentiated competition route, it cannot be too slow.

After three days of meetings, Mango TV came up with a list of over 100 invited guests, all of whom were female celebrities over 30 years old. In addition, based on Wu Yuan's suggestion in the plan, they also drew up a list of 20 female artists from other Asian countries, planning to invite 120 of the 30 people to be guests on the show.

In other words, the program team believes that out of 120 guests for "Sisters Riding the Wind and Waves", only a quarter of them will agree to accept the announcement.

After all, this is the first talent show in the industry that focuses on "anti-aging struggle" for older artists, and it is a new start for mature artists who have debuted.

It takes a lot of courage for any famous female star to agree to participate in this show.

However, the "group witness" invited by the program team was easily accepted. Also according to Wu Yuan's suggestion, Huang Xiaoming was invited to serve as the witness, who was actually the host.

The reason why Teacher He was not invited is that compared to Teacher He, Huang Xiaoming, the "flower" in the circle, does know most of the domestic female artists aged 30-40, and he has a very good reputation in the circle. It is most appropriate for him to be the glue between the 30 female guests.

After all, three women make a play. When thirty women gather together, and they are thirty female artists, the scene will be so terrible that I dare not even think about it. Only Huang Xiaoming can come to control the situation.

After finalizing Huang Xiaoming as the witness of the group formation, the program crew began to prepare for the studio while also formally inviting guests.

According to the long list of 120 people, the program team began to contact them one-on-one and send out invitations through the connections of the TV station and Teacher He and others.

Coincidentally, the first invitation was sent to Guangying Kuaibo’s sister company - Guangying Times.

The person who received this invitation was Yang Mi, the former pillar of Light and Shadow Era.

The program team sent the program plan to Yang Mi through Teacher He's connections. When they contacted her over the phone, Yang Mi seriously promised Teacher He that she would read the plan carefully and would definitely participate if she had time.

But when she actually got the program plan and saw the specific content, she was still a little angry and even felt a little humiliated.

"I'm not out of fashion!" She angrily slapped the plan in front of her agent, "Isn't this show just about finding a bunch of out-of-date female artists to pull their hair in front of the camera?"

"And then they hype up the popularity through the intrigues between the various women on the show. The whole thing about whether or not they will debut is all fake!"

"But, the planner of this program is Director Wu." Yang Mi's agent interrupted, "Could it be that Director Wu suggested the program team invite you to participate?"

"After all, you are indeed in your 30s, and your popularity has declined in the past two years. You are not as good as before."

"Maybe Director Wu also hopes that you can become popular again through this show?"

"After all, this is a program planned by Director Wu, so he must have his reasons." (End of this chapter)
