There are more than 30 major TV stations and video platforms participating in the competition for "Gu Jian Qi Tan".
But in the end it was won by the wealthy Penguin Video.
In the past, Mu Ju often purchased movies and TV series at a premium in order to seize the market.
Unfortunately, most of them are loss-making transactions.
Now that there is Xingdong Entertainment, which is making steady profits without losing money, of course he wants to spend a lot of money to buy it, and at the same time maintain a good cooperative relationship between the two parties.
Penguin Video won the online broadcast rights.
The first broadcast rights were won by Jianghai TV.
Originally DaXia Satellite TV wanted to buy it, but it is quite special after all.
Many things are budgeted.
This time Jianghai TV's bid far exceeded the budget for purchasing "The Legend of Ancient Swords".
In addition, there was no starring role of Song Yu, so Daxia Satellite TV decisively chose to give up.
After the sale of "Gu Jian Qi Tan", the three parties began to promote it.
Mainly Penguin Video and Jianghai TV contributed, and Xingdong Entertainment symbolically waved the flag.
It's not that Song Yu doesn't care, it's because these two people are really too enthusiastic.
In publicity, there is a waste of excess resources.
Not surprisingly, it immediately became a hot search topic.
"It's pretty well hidden. We won't know the news until it's broadcast."
"Xingdong Entertainment has made so many big moves behind our backs. Are there any movies and TV series that haven't been announced yet?"
"It's a pity that it's not starring Brother Yu."
"Pang Xu and Sang Yingying are not bad, a combination of handsome boys and beautiful girls."
"Brother Yu is back in an idol drama, great! I was attracted to "My Love from the Star" at the beginning. Although "The Legend of the Withered Hero" is good, I am a country dog and prefer to watch idol dramas."
"looking forward to!"
The most confused ones are Longteng Entertainment and Summit Entertainment.
what's the situation?
Is Xingdong Entertainment already capable of producing so many movies and TV series at the same time?
When they first heard the news, they were a little panicked.
But after seeing the two leading actors, I felt relieved.
Relatively speaking, among the TV series produced by Xingdong Entertainment so far, the one with the worst performance is "The Rumored Chen Qianqian".
And this is the only TV series that Song Yu did not participate in.
Of course, as far as online dramas are concerned, the results of "The Rumored Chen Qianqian" are actually very good.
Not to mention a hit, it is also a hit.
It's just that this level, in the eyes of Longteng Entertainment and Summit Entertainment, is not something to be afraid of, or in other words, the chance of winning is relatively high.
"The King of Martial Arts" has a big IP, a popular starring role, and marketing from two major companies.
It is not very difficult to achieve the results of "The Rumored Chen Qianqian".
At least it's not as desperate as "The Legend of the Withered Heroes".
Today's "Gu Jian Qi Tan" is another TV series without Song Yu starring.
After a meeting and analysis by Longteng Entertainment and Summit Entertainment, they felt that its performance would be at the level of "The Rumored Chen Qianqian" at best.
It is unlikely to become a big hit.
In other words, we can fight.
The two major companies have never won against Song Yu, this is their chance.
So much so that after learning about "Gu Jian Qi Tan", instead of backing down, they continued to increase publicity.
In terms of momentum, it is even better than Penguin Video and Jianghai TV.
After all, "King of Martial Arts" naturally has advantages over "Gu Jian Qi Tan".
Under such vigorous circumstances, the first episode of the second season of "The Masked Singer" was officially launched.
Because of the glory of the first season, it has accumulated a lot of fans, so it also attracts a lot of attention.
Song Yu organized the company's singers to watch.
Star Dream Era, Bai Xiang, Zhu Chen, Wen Rensi, Liang Anping, Zhou Jie and Qiao Ling.
This is all the singers of Xingdong Entertainment.
Overall, the lineup is considered strong.
After all, most entertainment companies do not have kings or queens.
"Speaking of which, tonight is a bit strange."
Zhou Jie tilted his head and asked, "Sister Bai, do you know what Brother Yu asked us to do?"
"Didn't you mean to watch "The King of Masked Singer"?" Bai Xiang asked.
"I don't think so. We have never been asked to watch a show together because of 'The Masked Singer' or 'The Voice' in the past."
After Zhou Jie finished his analysis, he looked at Zhu Chen and asked, "What do you think?"
"Brother Zhou, what you said does make sense."
Zhu Chen nodded and said, "I think something is fishy."
In fact, he had the same doubts as Zhou Jie.
Even the first season of "The King of Masked Singer" in which Song Yu personally participated did not do this.
What's more, it's late at night and everyone is gathered together just to watch a show?
Song Yu shouldn't be so boring.
"Why don't you ask Zhao Yan?" Qiao Ling said suddenly.
"You're right." Zhou Jie's eyes lit up and he said, "Let's go to the conference room and have a look."
Star Dream Era did not go with them.
The reason is that they have schedules during the day and are no longer in Binjiang City.
Multimedia conference room.
Zhou Jie opened the door and found that Song Yu had arrived.
Although Xingmeng Era was here, he didn't dare to ask again.
Just because he is carefree doesn't mean he doesn't understand the workplace.
Song Yu is the big boss.
He is still quite scared.
Instead, Bai Xiang asked directly: "Are you just watching "The Masked Singer" tonight? Is it because there are singers from our company participating?"
"The Masked Singer" has a strict confidentiality agreement.
Song Yu didn't tell them either, so no one knew Wen Rensi was participating.
In fact, except for Wen Rensi, no one among them would think of her.
After all, for a newcomer to participate in "The Masked Singer", no matter how you think about it, it feels dreamy.
"There is one more thing, let you choose a song."
Song Yu waved his hand and said, "Sit down, you will know what I am talking about later."
Of course he was talking about "The King of Love Songs".
He has just released a new album with a total of thirty-two songs. It will take him several years to complete it all by himself.
Just leave it to the company's singers.
Moreover, he wrote ten songs for Wen Rensi, which is unfair to Zhu Chen and others.
In terms of both emotion and reason, I should give you a few more songs.
"Choose a song?"
Bai Xiang and others couldn't quite understand.
If Song Yu directly gave them a lot of songs to choose from, there would be nothing wrong with him.
But what is it like to choose songs for "The Masked Singer"?
Aren’t all the songs in this variety show already famous and already owned?
Even if it is a new song, the moment it is sung, it is difficult to give it to another person to sing it.
Song Yu put various fruit plates and snacks in front of them and said with a smile: "Let's just treat it as a team-building activity for the company's singers."
The rest of the people could only suppress their doubts.
"I'll play it."
Zhou Jie rushed to the stage and turned on Daxia TV.
Zhao Yan sat next to Song Yu and asked, "What does choosing a song mean?"
The relationship between the two of them has been tacitly understood by Xingdong Entertainment, so their current behavior is normal.
"That's the literal meaning." Song Yu said with a smile, "It would be more interesting if the answer to the mystery is revealed at the end, so you can continue reading."
"I want to see what kind of medicine you sell in your gourd." Zhao Yan rolled her eyes at him.
"Here, have a sugar tangerine." Song Yu handed it to her casually.
The projection cloth quickly lights up.
After a few minutes of commercials, we got to the point.
The host is still Dong Bing.
The judges are no longer Gui Shu, Lin Lan, Jin Shubo and others from last season.
But most of them are still acquaintances of Song Yu.
As his status increased, his acquaintances were almost all over the entertainment industry.
Of course, all acquaintances in the entertainment industry will understand.
It's all plastic sisterhood or brotherhood.
Except for a few, never take it seriously.
After all, many celebrities even fake or hide their marriages in order to stay popular.
They were already divorced, but in the end they were still showing off their affection.
Among the ten judges, the most famous ones are Zhang Zongyan and Guo Huizhen.
Both of them were also Season 1 finalists.
Tang Ziya invited them over, naturally because they were familiar faces and had good popularity, which could be used to attract the audience of the first season.
The two music critics have not changed, He Zong and Xia Lie.
There is another judge who has some grudges with Song Yu.
Song Mo is the star of "The King of Martial Arts".
Naturally, he came here to promote the TV series.
Speaking of which, his being on "The King of Masked Singer" is related to Song Yu.
Previously, Song Mo applied to Daxia Satellite TV, but Tang Ziya wanted to refuse.
Later, he said that the appearance fee could be reduced.
In line with the principle of taking advantage, Tang Ziya asked Song Yu and then agreed to Song Mo as a judge.
But they are only flying guests, not residents.
After introducing the guests, the camera shifted from the stage to the singer's room.
Tang Ziya, like Liao Jian, appeared in person.
After reading a series of advertising slogans for three minutes, we got to the point.
The first link is to introduce the code names of the eight players.
"Is this person called 'The Hero of Shooting' an artist from our company?" Zhou Jie asked.
"No." Song Yu shook his head and said, "Probably a fan of Shebao."
To be honest, he didn't expect anyone to take this code name.
"Who is that?" Zhou Jie scratched his head, looked around, and said, "Just tell me honestly."
"Guess for yourself." Song Yu said with a smile, "If she says it, it will be a breach of contract."
Because Xingdong Entertainment only has these few singers, the range is relatively narrow and easy to guess.
Zhou Jie personally feels that Zhu Chen and Zhao Yan are the most suspicious.
First of all, Song Yu and Bai Xiang have already participated and should not participate again.
Secondly, Wen Rensi and Liang Anping are newcomers and have not debuted yet.
In the end, only Xingmeng Times and Zhu Chen were left.
The second part of "The Masked Singer" is the drawing of lots.
Wen Rensi’s ‘White Rose’ drew ‘Apple’.
Song Yu had heard her say before that Apple was at the bottom.
In fact, this is indeed the case.
Wenrensi and Apple are the third team.
Apple sings first.
What she sang was a medley of three love songs.
how to say.
Just above the passing mark.
Judging from his voice, he is relatively young.
Song Yu guessed that he was a top idol or a crossover singer.
For example, the fame gained through movies and TV series.
Wenrensi performed slightly better.
In the end, she won and entered the second round.
Taking advantage of the commercial break, several people chatted.
"Red Rose is the weakest and feels like she will be eliminated." Bai Xiang said.
"I think so," Zhu Chen commented, "She should be a young singer, and she still has a bit of stage fright. There were a few places in the last song where she seemed to lack breath."
He competed in the Youth Singing Competition, and after another year of training at Xingdong Entertainment, his fame and ability have allowed him to firmly enter the ranks of first-tier singers.
Naturally, it is a question that can be heard and heard.
"I'm optimistic about the hero She Withered, and I think he might be the king in the propaganda." Zhao Yan said.
"Me too." Suni chimed in, "My singing skills are indeed significantly better."
But when the righteous master hears people's thoughts, he dare not speak for fear of being exposed.
Fortunately, Bai Xiang and others haven't heard her sing much, so even if they thought she was like her, they wouldn't make any assumptions about her.
The commercial will end soon.
In the second round, four people had a big melee.
Wen Rensi got the last place.
And the first place is none other than the hero Shooting Wither.
What he sang this time was a mashup of two songs.
It's not a love song, it's rock and roll.
"It feels a bit like Xu Jian."
Qiao Ling guessed, "He is too good at rock music and his strength is scary."
"Probably not."
Song Yu is quite confident about his ears. After all, he is a man with perfect vocals.
"Who could that be?"
Qiao Ling asked while peeling an apple.
She believed in Song Yu unconditionally.
In addition, he has a good relationship with Xu Jian, so the chance of admitting the wrong person is relatively small.
"I can't hear it yet."
When Song Yu came to this world, he didn't know many singers.
Especially the group of kings and queens have even fewer interactions.
After the hero She Withered, there was a female singer named Orchid Singer.
Her voice was quite melodious, and she sang a medley of two folk songs.
"It sounds pretty good," Zhao Yan said, "and it's very powerful."
"Yeah." Song Yu nodded.
"Tsk, there are too many masters."
Zhou Jie smiled and said, "To be honest with you, Tang Ziya once invited me, but I knew myself, so I refused directly."
"You still have the nerve to say that."
Qiao Ling glanced at him and said, "Since you know, you should improve your singing skills."
The two of them have been working together for so long and have long been bad friends.
Zhou Jie wouldn't mind if that was the case.
He complained: "Is singing so easy? I have worked very hard."
The third male singer to take the stage is codenamed Si Da Ji Kong.
The strength is also top-notch.
Moreover, he was well versed in the rules of music competition and variety shows, so he directly performed a high-pitched song, which heated up the atmosphere at the scene.
"I'm afraid red roses are not good." Suni said.
The atmosphere was too hot, which was not conducive to the singers who came on stage later.
If it's a rock-like tune, that's fine.
If it's a sad emotional song, just leave it alone.
Unless you are extremely powerful and can bring the audience back.
Wen Rensi appeared wearing a rose mask.
The large screen behind displays song information.
Song title: King of Love Songs
Lyricist: Unknown.
Composer: Unknown.
Arranger: Unknown.
"It's actually a new song?" Bai Xiang was a little surprised.
Is there something wrong with creating new songs through song medleys?
"So bold." Zhou Jie agreed.
"Perhaps he knows that he is weak and has to come up with some new tricks." Zhu Chen guessed.
At this time, the professional judging panel was also explaining to the audience.
The reason why it is said to be a new song.
It lies in these three unknowns.
According to the regulations of "The King of Masked Singer", if it is a new song, in order to avoid exposing the singer, the songwriter will not sign his name for the time being.
After a while, the singing started.
"I love you not just because of your beauty. I love you more and more, and every look touches my heart."
The lyrics also appeared on the big screen.
But underneath the lyrics, there are four more words.
The first song.
"I am the one who loves you the most. Otherwise, why would you be sad? Otherwise, how could I go through fire and water and do whatever you say?"
Also below, there are four words.
The second song.
Immediately, the audience understood what it meant.
"One song for every two verses?"
"Such a skewer? Isn't it too outrageous?"
"What's even more outrageous is that I haven't heard it yet? Are you using new songs to mix it up? Isn't this too extravagant?"
"She is singing a very new song."
"But don't tell me, this new song is pretty good."
In fact, the professional judges, that is, singers and music critics, have now changed their faces.
This is not a nice question.
I feel like every lyric is very well written and all are classics.
But they found themselves shocked too soon.
When Wen Rensi sang for twelve minutes, everyone was dumbfounded.
There are thirty-two songs in total.
The only old songs are "Fairy Tale", "What I Miss" and "Our Love".
The singers of Xingdong Entertainment have all turned their attention to Song Yu.
Now they all understand what song selection means.
