Early in the morning, a red carpet was laid out in front of the hotel, and the exterior walls were plastered with slogans for "Chinese Idol." Starting today, the show will officially hold producer auditions in six competition areas across the country.
All contestants who have passed the preliminary test in the first stage can register for the six competition areas and participate in the audition. The so-called preliminary test means submitting video materials to the program team, who will screen them remotely. Basically, all singing skills
Some capable contestants have passed the preliminary examination. According to the official website of "China Idol", the number of applicants nationwide is as high as 320,000, but only 180,000 have passed the preliminary examination.
In just the first test, nearly half of the contestants were screened out.
From here we can see that there are too many people fishing in troubled waters, all dreaming of becoming famous overnight.
Among these 180,000 people, 60 contestants need to be screened out after auditions by producers and judges, and then go to Hunan Satellite TV to record the national top 50 knockout competition.
Anyone under the age of thirty, regardless of gender, has the opportunity to participate in this grand talent show.
After layers of screening and elimination, the top ten contestants in the country were finally selected. The competition was very fierce and cruel. Many well-known singers who had already debuted and released albums participated, which also caused "Chinese Idol" to set off a wave of discussion across the country.
You know, the original version of this program "American Idol" became popular in Europe and the United States as soon as it was released. The star contestants who emerged from it are now all international first-line singers. After purchasing the copyright, "Chinese Idol" also
A wave has set off throughout Southeast Asia, attracting the attention of Asian countries. Everyone is speculating whether "Chinese Idol" can replicate the ratings miracle of "American Idol"?
When Zheng Qian came here, he found that the front of the hotel was already crowded. In addition to the contestants, there were more people watching the excitement.
Looking around, the entire audition site was packed with people. It was airtight. It was like a job fair in the talent market. There was a flow of people everywhere. People were rubbing shoulders. There were hundreds of security guards on site going back and forth to maintain order and provide guidance.
human beings.
When a security guard passed by Zheng Qian, he kept complaining: "Why is this like the Spring Festival travel rush, there are so many people? My voice is hoarse, it's so exhausting!"
In fact, Zheng Qian also felt a little shocked. The one who came with him was Wang Gang, the assistant that the company had just recruited. He was tall and tall with thick eyebrows and big eyes. His loose T-shirt should be filled with muscles all over his body. At this time, he
Looking at Zheng Qian: "Brother Qian, what do you say?"
Zheng Qian tightened his backpack, raised the brim of his baseball cap, took a quick look, and then walked forward: "Let's get in line!"
Wang Gang nodded, and then dissuaded him and said: "Brother Qian, you go to the cold drink shop next to you and do it first. I'll queue up. When it's my turn, I'll call you."
"That's fine."
Zheng Qian did not refuse, and went to a cold drink shop not far away to buy two cups of iced coffee, and asked the clerk to help deliver one of them to Wang Gang. Then he sat in the cold drink shop alone to recuperate.
He is quite confident in this producer audition. This is of course due to his understanding of his own strength. Furthermore, he is not isolated from the world. In the past two days, he has seen many netizens commenting on him online.
Before the official recording of the discussion started, the title of the top ten devils in the Beijing competition area was placed on his head.
Zheng Qian also learned about other contestants, including not only well-known singers, but also second-generation stars, and even more students. Most of them have the title of champion and runner-up in a certain campus singer competition, etc. There were too many people, and Zheng Qian didn't
The method is all about knowing yourself and the enemy, so I only know a few of the strongest people.
In addition, Zhang Guoran, a returned singer who previously competed with the "Singer" program group, was also at the scene. He contacted Zheng Qian in advance and wanted to work together to audition and control the scene. After all, the two brothers are both art troupes. People who have just fought together.
But I didn't expect that everyone here is a mortal, and the program team treats them equally. Contestants must line up to enter, otherwise they will have to wait until tomorrow or the day after tomorrow, when all contestants have auditioned before it can be your turn.
Zhang Guoran didn't have an assistant, so he had to do it himself. He kept complaining on the phone with Zheng Qian. Zheng Qian couldn't stand it any longer, so he asked the clerk to bring a cold drink to Zhang Guoran who was queuing up. The happy guy kept saying hello to Zheng Qian on the phone. elder brother.
Moreover, Zheng Qian also found that there were many fans of his at the scene. They were all wearing uniform yellow T-shirts with the word "Qian" printed on their chests, which moved Zheng Qian a lot in his heart.
In the crowd, he also discovered Shen Tian, a college student who he had worked with at Lanke House before. He felt a little strange. What happened to this girl that she also came to compete?
The queue in front of the hotel was slowly crawling like a long queue.
More than an hour later, Zheng Qian received a call from Wang Gang, so he picked up his backpack and walked towards the hotel door. At this time, the entire hotel lobby was still full of people. Zheng Qian lowered his hat brim and squeezed in. Soon he came to Wang Gang's door. By his side, replace Wang Gang.
"Brother Qian, come on!" Wang Gang encouraged.
As soon as these words came out, the players who were queuing up and down, as well as some fans nearby, all turned their heads to look at Zheng Qian, and the crowd suddenly became commotion.
"Zheng Qian! You are Zheng Qian!" someone shouted excitedly.
Zheng Qian glared at Wang Gang, his eyes complaining.
But actually he was a little excited in his heart.
He raised his chest slightly, showing a straight posture, and was ready to take photos with fans and sign autographs.
But the strange thing is that the people around him just look here, discuss or smile, but no one comes forward to disturb Zheng Qian.
Well, the quality of fans this year is a bit too good...
Zheng Qian's face felt a little hot, and he was instantly discouraged. He stuffed the half-taken signature pen back into his trouser pocket and continued queuing as if nothing had happened.
Soon, it was Zheng Qian's turn.
Zheng Qian took out the invitation letter and handed it to the reviewer for a look.
The other party took one look at it and asked Zheng Qian to sign a roster, then took out a number plate and stuck it under Zheng Qian's ribs.
Immediately afterwards, he was led by a staff member to the audition interview hall.
At this moment, someone suddenly shouted from behind:
"Come on Zheng Qian!"
"come on!"
The sound of cheering came from scattered, Zheng Qian turned around, smiled and waved to everyone, and then continued to follow the staff, took the elevator to the audition hall.
There are three audition halls in total. At the end of the seventh floor of the hotel, this is a temporary reconstruction. It is specially decorated with soundproof panels and soundproof carpets to give the contestants the best performance venue. When Zheng Qian came here, he saw that there was still a lot of noise in front of him. There were still a few people waiting in line, so we also entered waiting mode.
At this moment, the entire corridor was quiet, no one spoke, and all the players seemed very nervous.
There are three audition halls. Every time a contestant walks out, another contestant walks in.
Players who walk in may hold their heads high and are confident, or they may shrink back and be trembling with fear.
The players who came out had nothing but joy and sadness on their faces.
After all, there are only two outcomes, promotion and elimination.
Soon it was Zheng Qian's turn. When a female contestant pushed open the audition hall No. 3 and walked out with a frustrated look on her face, Zheng Qian's heart still skipped a beat.
Because according to his observation just now, the probability of players coming out of Hall 3 to be eliminated is obviously much higher than that of other halls.
However, it was his turn now, and the players in the other two halls had not come out yet, so Zheng Qian had to bite the bullet and walk up.
