The most popular king in the world

Chapter 141
In the midst of intensive preparations, the time has come to the beginning of March, and all the preparations for the King of Masked Singer program group have been completed, and the preliminary preparations have also been completed.

It wasn't until this morning that Shao Yang, the chief planner of the show, finally took off the burden from his shoulders.After handing over to Chief Director Chen Chao, his work can be said to have been completed. How high the show will reach in the end depends on the strength of Director Chen, the number one variety show director in the industry.

However, even though Shao Yang has no job on hand, he still has no way to leave Hangzhou for the time being, because the recording of the first episode of the show is about to start, and before the official recording, all competing singers have to go through rehearsals Sing.

The news that Shao Yang was going to participate in King of Masked Singer was only known to him and Chao Chen in the entire program group, and the secrecy work of this program was done quite well.I have to say that Director Chen Chao is indeed a senior who has experienced the big stage of the Spring Festival Gala, and he is quite thoughtful in everything.

All the singers who participated in the competition signed a non-disclosure agreement with the program group. The agreement stipulated that the competing singers must cooperate with the program group to keep their identities strictly confidential. In fact, it was also for the fairness of the program itself.

After all, it is a show that relies purely on sound to determine the outcome. If the identity of the singer cannot be kept strictly confidential, it will inevitably affect the fairness of the competition.

Shao Yang also signed an agreement, and specifically notified Aunt Xin and the others in the studio not to tell anyone about it.

In the hotel, Shao Yang came out of the bathroom, and just after taking a comfortable bath, Shao Yang felt much lighter all over his body.For more than 20 days, he lived and ate in the studio. Except for washing his face when he was sleepy, he really didn't have such foreign time as taking a bath.

Now that I have finished my work and returned to the hotel, after taking a shower, it is really like being reborn.Pulling down the bath towel around his waist, Shao Yang changed into the clothes on the bed, and later he had to go to the hotel's catering department to have a good meal, which was considered a reward for himself.

Just after getting dressed, Shao Yang's cell phone on the bedside table rang.This phone is not the one that Shao Yang usually uses, but the King of Masked Singer program group, which is specially customized for the competing singers participating in the program. It is used for special contact work. The microphone of the phone has been specially treated .

"Hello! Hello!" After Shao Yang's voice was processed by the microphone voice changer, it sounded full of metallic texture. Not to mention letting outsiders listen to it, even Dong Li couldn't tell that it was Shao Yang who was speaking.

"Hello, teacher! I'm Zhao Shunde, a staff member of the Masked Singer King program group. You can call me Xiao Zhao. Director Chen of our program group gave me your number. During the recording of the program, I will serve as Your exclusive contact person will be responsible for your itinerary arrangements throughout the process.”

As soon as Zhao Shunde opened his mouth, Shao Yang agreed in his heart. After fighting in the program group for more than 20 days, he still had a deep impression on Xiao Zhao, a diligent young man.

"Hello, Xiao Zhao, it seems that the two of us will fight side by side as comrades-in-arms for a long time. I hope you will take care of me." Shao Yang said with a smile on the phone.

In fact, when Zhao Shunde made this phone call, he was still very nervous. He had never taken this kind of job before. He was afraid that the artist he was in charge of would not be able to communicate well. Now he is so polite when he listens to the other party , Zhao Shunde felt relieved.

"Teacher, you are too polite. I am here to serve you. You are flattering me. By the way, what should I call you? Our show is about to be recorded. I need to confirm the costume, code name and Questions about the itinerary."

Shao Yang scratched his head when he heard this, he really forgot about it before.But... what code name should I give it?When he was worrying, Shao Yang suddenly smelled the fragrance of the shampoo on his hair after taking a shower.

Got it!Just call it this, it's just a code name anyway.

"Xiao Zhao! Just call me Head & Shoulders!" Naturally, there is no Head & Shoulders brand shampoo in this world, but in the world in Shao Yang's memory, he has always used this.Now using this brand as my code name, it can be regarded as a kind of memorial service.

"Head & Shoulders? Okay, then, Mr. Head & Shoulders, what specific requirements do you have for your costumes, masks and gloves? I have to contact my colleagues in the costume and props team to help you make them as soon as possible." Xiao Zhao thought about it For a long time, I didn't figure out the purpose of the name of the teacher on the opposite side, so I just didn't guess.

After hearing Zhao Shunde's words, Shao Yang turned his head to look at a set of clothes on the sofa on the right, and then said: "Xiao Zhao, I have already prepared the clothes and masks myself, and I promise to cover them from the top of my head." You don’t need to worry about it, but you have to ask the prop master to help me prepare a head curtain with bangs.”

On the sofa is a penguin suit, the mask is a penguin helmet that surrounds it, and the eyes are one big and one small, looking ugly and cute.This was specially mailed by Dong Li to Shao Yang, and it was exactly the same as the one that scared Dong Li when Shao Yang returned to Jinghua from Yixin.Shao Yang felt that Dong Li must have ordered this suit for himself because she was tricked by him back then and her heart was unbalanced.

revenge!This is nothing short of blatant revenge.

"Ah? That's not a problem." Zhao Shunde was dumbfounded immediately. He didn't expect Teacher Head & Shoulders to be so professional. He even prepared costumes and masks in advance when he came to participate in the program. This saved him a lot of money. workload.

"Well, Mr. Head & Shoulders, since you're ready, I'm relieved. Our program group will be rehearsing tomorrow. Can you be there? If possible, please arrive at the TV station before 10:[-] am. The time slot given to me by the group is from ten to twelve o'clock."

For what Zhao Shunde said, Shao Yang was quite clear in his heart, after all, it was a matter that had been booked long ago.Before the recording starts, it is necessary for the singer to come to the scene to familiarize himself with the venue, communicate with the music director about the competing works, and arrange a few songs with the band to get in touch.

"That's no problem. I'll rush over tomorrow morning. I'll contact you when I get there. I'll have to trouble Xiao Zhao to pick me up then."

"Mr. Head & Shoulders, you are very kind. You have saved me a lot of work. Then I will wait for your call tomorrow. If there is nothing else, I won't bother you."

"Okay, let's contact each other tomorrow." After finishing speaking, Shao Yang hung up the phone.

At the same time, the Masked Singer King official certification Weibo announced a list.

List of cast members and guests of "The King of Masked Singer":

Chief planner: Shao Yang
Chief Director; Chao Chen
Music Director: Xie Tianxia
Accompaniment Orchestra: Philharmonic Orchestra

Moderator: Zhang Yinghua

Guessing team members: Jian Ni, Wu Jun, He Yang, Wang Yanan, Lu Qi.

After the announcement of this list, there was an uproar on the entire Internet.All the melon eaters were shocked by the generosity of the program "The King of Masked Singer".

Although the promotional video had already aroused widespread heated discussions among the masses when it was released, people never expected that the "King of Masked Singer" program group would spend such a large amount of money to attract this group of god-level Characters participate in the show.

"I'm going! This "The King of Masked Singer" is going against the sky! It actually got Director Chen out of the mountain! This is a great director at the level of the Spring Festival Gala."

"Expectations are beyond the charts! I like Director Chen the most, and Director Chen will direct this "King of Masked Singer" himself. You have to watch it."

"Director Chen still has a lot of face. Even Boss Xie's Philharmonic participated in this show. Philharmonic was still on WYN tour a few days ago, right?"

"How could Jane, the first sister of the times, be a guest on the guessing panel? She should be participating!"

"Don't make trouble upstairs, how can a big sister like Sister Jian in the music industry go to the competition in person? It's the most suitable guest for the guessing group, okay?"

"That's right, if Sister Jian is gone, who can compete with her for the song king?"

"I don't care about other things, I just know that my sister Yanan is here, the first sister of rock and roll signs in and checks in here for a visit, 666!"

"With Mr. Wu and Professor He sitting in the town, the comments of the guessing group are definitely stable."

"I just want to ask, why did Lu Qi go to "The King of Masked Singer" just talking about cross talk? Is it a hot scene? His mouth is so poisonous, he won't make the singers vomit blood on the spot, right?"

"Hey~~~ You don't understand this? Lu Qi obviously wants to cross-border rhythm! There is no separation between folk music and art, and it's normal for an artist to change his career to sing music. Isn't it popular to cross-border now?"

"What you said is so reasonable, I am speechless."

"Oh my God, it turns out that Shao Yang is the chief planner of this show! I really don't know how he came up with such a great idea, it's too amazing!"

"Shao Yang is too dishonest! If you don't have time to code "Legend of Sword", what are you doing with "The King of Masked Singer"? Are you worthy of the reward from the young master?"

"+1, and the "Sword of Immortal Sword" that Hudan is writing now is probably a tragedy. Anyway, I have cleared the game, and the ending is sad. I strongly request Shao Yang to change the ending in the novel version!"

"Shao Yang, your mother told you to go home and code words, and asked "Sword" to have a happy ending, otherwise you will lose your fans!"

"Shao Yang, your mother told you to go home and code, and demanded that "Sword" have a happy ending, otherwise you will lose your fans!" +1
……

"Shao Yang, your mother told you to go home and code, and demanded that "Sword" have a happy ending, otherwise you will lose your fans!" +999
As soon as this message was posted, the message on the official WeChat account of "The King of Masked Singer" was taken out of rhythm in an instant. All the netizens who participated in the reply were in a neat formation. Powder off.

In addition to the people who eat melons on the Internet, colleagues in the industry have also become extraordinarily sensational after receiving the news.

The news about the Jiangsu-Zhejiang TV program's bidding before could not be concealed. Regarding Yixin spending huge sums of money to win the [-]-week time slot, these people have everything to say.But most people are not optimistic about this.

Then, when the rest of the relevant details of this "King of Masked Singer" surfaced little by little, after rough calculations, everyone has roughly calculated that Yixin invested in the production of this program - at least one [-] million!

In this way, the limelight of this "King of Masked Singer" will win even more.

The investment of more than [-] million yuan is just to produce a [-]-episode program, which is obviously going to be a blood loss!Even if Yixin recruited a variety show master like Chen Chao, even if the guests of the guessing group who have been exposed for the show are all prominent, but no matter how good you are, it's just a variety show, why do you want to have the ratings of the Spring Festival Gala?

Everyone couldn't figure out how a shrewd person like Yixin's Yu Tingting would make such a bad move.As for the ratings reward clause offered by Jiangsu and Zhejiang TV, it is a joke in the eyes of all knowledgeable people.

If the audience rating exceeds 3, you will be given 50% of the advertising revenue. Isn't this fooling people like fools? Is 3% ever that good?Furthermore, even if you get over 5 ratings and get 100% of the advertising revenue, how much is it?
So far, the highest naming fee for a variety show in the industry is Mango TV last year's "China's Good Man" season three, right?How much is that? 7000 million only!Even including other advertising revenue, the total amount is less than [-] million. Yixin invested more than [-] million all at once, how can she get back her capital?

Therefore, almost everyone in the industry is waiting to see Yixin's joke, because in their opinion, no matter whether this "King of Masked Singer" will be successful or not, Yixin will suffer a lot in the end flow.

In this way, under the heated discussion among the whole people and the generally negative view in the industry, "The King of Masked Singer" finally ushered in the first rehearsal of the second day!
