This star doesn’t work overtime

The first ratings data is finally out...

Hu Xiaoshan, Peng Donghu, and Li Guang all looked at the paper quickly!

It was impossible not to be envious of many of their colleagues who had watched many of their peers cooperate with Wang Cheng and achieve miraculous ratings one after another.

Li Guang, in particular, had worked with Wang Cheng once and had a taste of the benefits. Unfortunately, a decision error later caused Wang Cheng to withdraw from the show. As a result, everything was lost and the good situation was ruined. The high ratings at the time became a joke in the industry.

Therefore, Li Guang has been holding his breath for a while, always wanting to invite Wang Cheng back again, produce a program again, and recreate the mythical ratings of Dragon TV.

pity……

After Wang Cheng left Tomorrow's Idol, he fell into a conflict with Rubik's Cube Entertainment, and was targeted by Rubik's Cube Entertainment. He would not accept a long-term contract for a full season of the show in a short period of time, and would only accept a single-issue advertising contract. This made Li Guang's previous preparations temporarily After it came to a standstill, we could only invite Wang Cheng to the previous show to build relationships.

However, after Li Guang worked hard several times, he spent 90 million to invite Wang Cheng to the last episode of the show.

so……

Li Guang was in the most excited mood at this time, but he had experienced ups and downs and was relatively calm. He held this heavy report tightly in both hands and looked at the data on it carefully, his eyes slightly condensed.

The eyes of Hu Xiaoshan and Zhao Donghu next to them were slightly surprised.

Zhao Donghu said excitedly: "The ratings were 2.1 at the beginning of the broadcast, which is more than twice our highest ratings! The appeal of Wang Cheng and Wen Yixiao is indeed worthy of trust..."

It had a ratings of 2.1 when it started airing, which is extremely rare among all TV stations in the country, especially the ratings at 11:30 midnight, which is definitely an amazing start.

There are so many popular variety shows that can only achieve such ratings for one or two episodes a year at most, but they cannot continue to rise, because no program has had a rating of three in the past few years, and it is after two o'clock. The ratings in the past few years have hit a ceiling.

Only after Wang Cheng and Wen Yixiao appeared a few years ago did ratings above three o'clock begin to appear frequently.

Hu Xiaoshan was also a little excited, and then quickly looked at the subsequent trend. His excitement cooled down instantly, and he frowned and said, "Is the trend declining?"

There was no surprise in Li Guang's eyes, and he said calmly: "It's normal, Wang Cheng hasn't appeared yet. Wen Yixiao's opening with a ratings of 2.1 is just the result of our early publicity and hype. However, Wen Yixiao is alone The ratings were not enough to support such a launch rating, so there was a slight drop after the launch, but the drop was very small, which shows that Wen Yixiao's performance was very exciting and retained most of the audience."

Hu Xiaoshan understood a little and said: "The performances of the last two contestants are too boring for ordinary audiences? So, the ratings dropped rapidly?"

They could all see that when Wen Yixiao left the stage, the ratings were still 1.9, which didn't drop much. But when Sun Haibo and Phipps competed, the ratings dropped off a cliff. One point nine dropped all the way to zero point eight...

This downward trend caused Hu Xiaoshan and Zhao Donghu's blood pressure to soar and their eyes to turn red.

Only Li Guang was a little calmer. After all, he was someone who had seen big scenes and had seen the ratings trend data of all Wang Cheng's programs. He smiled and said: "Don't worry, wait for Wang Cheng to appear."

Hu Xiaoshan and Zhao Donghu saw that Li Guang was so calm and calmed down a little. However, they still felt a little uneasy when they looked at the report on the table.

If Wang Cheng's subsequent performances fail to bring the ratings back above two points, then they know that the musician program group will soon cease to exist.

Buzz buzz...

Li Guang's phone rang. When he saw Director Huang's name, he immediately answered the call: "Director Huang..."

Huang Jianghe didn't sleep at this time. He was sitting in the living room at home watching the TV screen. Sitting with him was his son and daughter. The brother and sister were clamoring to watch Wang Cheng's program and would not hesitate to skip class tomorrow.

Huang Jianghe was still worried about the ratings, so he called Li Guang and asked, "Has the data come out?"

Li Guang said truthfully: "When it came out, it started at 2:1, the first round contestants' performance ended, and it dropped to 0:9! Wang Cheng hasn't appeared yet."

Hearing the decline, Huang Jianghe became worried and said softly: "You have used so many resources this time. If the data does not look good by then, your position may have to move..."

Originally, Huang Jianghe's suggestion was not to invest too much publicity resources in the later period. The 90 million announcement fee was just a ticket to ask questions, laying the foundation for the next cooperation with Wang Cheng. He was not optimistic about the ratings of musicians at all. Even if Wang Cheng joins, it will be the same!

The reason is still the same - dogs don't watch classical music programs.

This is not...

After starting at 2:1, it dropped all the way to 0:9!

Even such a wonderful performance by Wen Yixiao failed to increase the ratings.

If Wang Cheng fails to increase the ratings later, then so much resource investment will be wasted, and someone will be held responsible for this!

Obviously, the only person who can take responsibility is Li Guang.

Li Guang is betting on his future at Dragon TV.

Taking a deep breath, Li Guang said confidently: "Director Huang, believe in my vision and believe in Wang Cheng's charm! I will definitely get up later."

Zhao Donghu and Hu Xiaoshan, who were standing next to him, also had worried faces. At the same time, they looked at Li Guang with admiration and admired Li Guang's courage to risk his future. If it were them, they would not dare to do this. Why bother when you are just hanging around waiting for retirement?

Huang Jianghe nodded and looked at his son and daughter not far away who were watching the TV screen intently. They all said that Wang Cheng would appear soon. He felt relieved and said, "Okay, I believe you. Now that the matter is over, I also I can only believe you. Unfortunately, Wang Cheng did not write on the show this time, otherwise, the ratings would definitely be guaranteed..."

Huang Jianghe was jealous when he thought of the inscriptions on humble houses written by Wang Cheng on Hunan Satellite TV's rural life and the chivalrous travels written by Yuan Zhongwen. Those two works have become a legend on many online platforms, and they have also become a legend for Xiangnan. Satellite TV and its program Rural Life, as well as China Satellite TV and its program Culture Zhongyuan, have established long-term popularity. As long as they do not seek death, this popularity will be enough to survive for three to five years.

For a variety show, it is very successful if it can survive for three to five years.

If Wang Cheng can also write an excellent work on the spot of Dragon TV's musician program, then Dragon TV can also take advantage of the trend to hype...

In fact, Huang Jianghe had been prepared for a long time. If Wang Cheng really wrote a work on the musician's program, he would rush to the scene quickly and keep the work in his own hands at any cost, or leave it on the stage. It can continuously bring hot spots and attention to Dragon TV.

After all, China’s own excellent cultural works are definitely more accepted than classical music.

Just like the song "Xia Ke Xing", which amazed hundreds of millions of people across the country, it is still a hot topic of discussion on major social platforms and still ranks among the top popular words.

The same is true in reality. If you don’t know how to kill a person in ten steps and leave no trace in a thousand miles, you will be left behind!

Anyway, Huang Jianghe's own son has been holding a long plastic sword in his hand these days and shouting: Zhao Keman Hu Ying, Hu Gou Shuang Xue Ming... Kill one person in ten steps, leave no trace in a thousand miles...

This poem is destined to be passed down, and it may not necessarily become an eternal masterpiece.

Unfortunately……

Wang Cheng did not write any literary works on the spot of the musician's program.

Li Guang also said regretfully: "Yeah, Wang Cheng didn't write any written works. Maybe, he already spent a lot of artistic inspiration by playing the few original classical music, so he didn't have any literary inspiration. .”

When Huang Jianghe heard this, it seemed that this made sense: "Oh, that's a pity! If I had known better, Wang Cheng wouldn't have been allowed to participate in this classical music and art program. How could we discuss the last program that has nothing to do with art? Can traditional cultural programs inspire Wang Cheng’s desire to create texts?”

Li Guang was a little helpless and said: "Director Huang, even if Wang Cheng writes the work, it is actually impossible for us to keep it."

Everyone in the industry knows very well how popular Wang Cheng's works are. Legend has it that Qin Yuhai, the owner of Rubik's Cube Entertainment, offered RMB 100 million to buy Wang Cheng's Xia Ke Xing, but all of them were rejected.

Huang Jianghe: "I know, I'm just not willing to give in. Well, I won't tell you anymore. Wang Cheng is about to appear. I also want to listen to what the magical classical music performance played by Hu Xiaoshan is like..."

Li Guang: "Okay, goodbye Mr. Huang!"

hang up the phone.

Li Guang, Hu Xiaoshan, and Zhao Donghu also looked closely at the TV screen.

After several judges finished reviewing the two contestants, it was finally Wang Cheng's turn to appear.

Hu Xiaoshan heard what Huang Jianghe said just now and said to Li Guang: "Director Huang called me last night and asked about Wang Cheng's performance in the program. I said that my evaluation is that domestic classical music is number one, and light theory His strength and talent are comparable to those of the great music masters in the history of world music, but what is lacking is the foundation of his works..."

Li Guang nodded: "No wonder Director Huang said your blowing is amazing!"

Hu Xiaoshan shook his head and smiled bitterly: "Director Li, you really don't understand classical music. If you understand classical music, you would know that Wang Cheng's performance yesterday was incredible!"

Zhao Donghu said: "But the audience doesn't understand either..."

Hu Xiaoshan was speechless and a little helpless.

He knows this is true.

This is also the fundamental reason why it is difficult for musicians to become popular!

The vast majority of ordinary audiences do not understand classical music and are not interested in it!

Li Guang: "I hope Wang Cheng can bring some changes..."

The three of them stopped talking. They looked at Wang Cheng walking out on the TV screen with great anticipation.

…

In a hotel not far from Dragon TV.

Professor Haixi, Curtis College player Phipps who was eliminated by Sun Haibo, and a middle-aged man sat in the same room with a girl and watched Wang Cheng coming out on the TV screen.

The middle-aged man was none other than Charles, who was specially called by Professor Haixi. He is currently one of the vice presidents of Curtis College and is in charge of the piano department. He is also one of the most famous pianists still active in the world. He said It is no exaggeration to say that he is the Taishan Beidou in the field of European and American piano performance.

That girl was Charles's student, Heidi, the most talented student in the piano department at Curtis College. Her strength and talent were all above Phipps's.

After watching the competition performance between Sun Haibo and Phipps, Charles said to Phipps: "Phipps, when you go back this time, don't leave the academy within a year, and practice with peace of mind!"

Phipps nodded: "Okay, Mr. Charles!"

At this time, Phipps also wanted to go back to retreat and practice for a period of time to digest some of his insights after watching Wang Cheng's performance on the stage yesterday. He had a hunch that after going back to practice and digest this time, his level of strength would be directly improved. one level.

This is a goal he previously expected to achieve in ten years...

If so, he is confident that it will be achieved within a year.

Both Charles and Heidi looked at Phipps who was calm and accepting with some surprise. This was not the Phipps they knew.

In the past, Phipps was very self-assertive and found it hard to listen to opinions.

At this time, Phipps was much more restrained and calm, and he vaguely had the temperament of a mature musician.

Heidi asked curiously: "Phipps, did this failure give you any insights?"

Faced with the question of failure, Phipps answered calmly: "I do have some insights, but not because of failure, but because of him."

Phipps stared at Wang Cheng who came out on the screen.

Heidi immediately asked: "Oh? You can gain insights and improve after watching his performance?"

Phipps nodded affirmatively and said: "Yes, if you had the opportunity to see him play live, you will understand. He is a true musical artist and the most incredible musical artist I have ever seen." I don’t know what those great men in history are like, but I think no matter how great they are, that’s what they are!”

oh?

Both Charles and Heidi were again surprised.

Phipps is not a casual person. When he wants to show off his confidence, he doesn't take it seriously. Even Heidi is not taken seriously by him. But now, a nineteen-year-old boy is placed in history. Music giant's position?

Charles said calmly: "Phipps, be careful what you say. Musical greatness cannot be achieved in just a few performances."

Phipps just shrugged slightly, without arguing, and said: "You will know after watching it. Of course, I suggest you find a chance to watch his solo concert, which will be even more shocking. As you all know, the video broadcast There’s no way to completely create the musical atmosphere of the venue.”

Charles said softly: "Let's take a look at his performance this time."

Heidi's eyes were also fixed on Wang Cheng.

Looking at Wang Cheng's casual and casual dress, from this aspect alone, he doesn't have any artist's temperament. Only his appearance is really handsome, which makes Heidi stunned. She just feels that he is the most beautiful person in the world. .

only……

The temperament is too cold.

Then, they watched Wang Cheng slowly sit down. His temperament quickly changed, from casual to elegant. The rich artistic atmosphere almost seeped out from the screen, making both Charles and Heidi breathless. He was a little heavier, and there was some disbelief in his eyes.

They could clearly feel such a strong artistic atmosphere through the screen, and they could not imagine what it would be like to sit there.

They have never seen such a rich and powerful musical and artistic aura in the whole world!

but……

When Wang Cheng started playing with his hands jumping like elves.

Charles and Heidi stood up almost at the same time, with disbelief on their faces, and then tilted their ears slightly to deliberately hear the sound from the TV speakers more clearly.

Standing at the height of Charles and Heidi's world-class talent, listening to Wang Cheng's performance of "To Alice" is extremely enjoyable, as if this is the art of music itself!

especially……

This piano piece is indeed original and excellent beyond their imagination!

Simple, nice to listen to, complete in structure, clear in artistic conception...

this……

This is simply an example of a world-famous song.

Professor Haixi and Phipps did not speak. They sat quietly and watched Wang Cheng's performance on the TV screen. They could understand the reactions of Charles and Heidi at this time, because they were on the program yesterday. The performance on set was even more exaggerated than this.

Because they can experience more shock at the scene!

…

Far away in the capital.

Yangyin's office also became extremely quiet at this time.

More than a dozen school leaders all looked at Wang Cheng playing the piano on the TV screen in silence.

Although they are all leaders, most of them have a background in studying music and art. They are all representatives of those who excel in their studies and become officials. They are all good musical performers themselves, so they can all clearly see the representative performance of Wang Cheng at this time. What they are talking about represents the strength and realm that they have been dreaming of all their lives.

A middle-aged man couldn't help but said suspiciously: "Is this post-production?"

Everyone looked at Zhou Zhe.

In fact, Wang Cheng's performance on the TV screen at this time was so amazing that they couldn't believe it for a while.

Although, Zhou Zhe had told them repeatedly before.

But they are still imprisoned in common sense!

Such a counter-intuitive existence...

They will instinctively be suspicious.

Zhou Zhe shook his head affirmatively: "No! I'm at the scene, and the atmosphere and listening enjoyment are better. After all, TV signals can't perfectly transmit the scene! Does anyone still doubt what I said?"

There was silence in the conference room again.

Many people who didn't believe Zhou Zhe just now looked away.

Zhou Zhe looked at Principal Yu and Secretary Wei and said, "Have you seen the strength of Principal Yu, Secretary Wei, and Wang Cheng? This piano piece is his original work. For this reason alone, he is ahead of all other pianists among us in the country." A big step."

Principal Yu nodded in agreement, his eyes full of thinking.

Secretary Wei frowned and said, "But, he is still only nineteen years old. And this is just a piece of music..."

Secretary Wei has never been so trusting of young people...

How can I assume a high position if I have no qualifications or experience?

Zhou Zhe didn't argue, just said: "Secretary Wei, please continue to look at the back, there are still three performances."

Secretary Wei stopped talking. Although he was a secretary and did not study classical music, he was also from a cultural troupe. He had an extremely good understanding and interest in classical music. Otherwise, he would not be able to be in this position. So at this time, he was also concerned about the TV screen. Wang Cheng's performance was extremely shocking and incredible.

He has met all the piano masters in the country, and when he was young, he also had contact with the top piano masters of the older generation in the country.

But……

The current and older generation of piano masters in his memory seemed to be inferior in front of the young man on the TV screen.

This was the feeling through the TV signal. If it were experienced live, he knew it might be stronger.

Taking a deep breath, Secretary Wei calmed down his emotions. Although he was also amazed by the strength and talent of Wang Cheng's performance at this time, he still disliked people who were too young!

…………

And at this time.

Discussions about musicians on the Internet suddenly exploded.

"Wen Yixiao's guzheng playing really impressed me. She is truly a talented woman. She can dance, play, and sing. Who else in the entertainment industry can compare with her except Wang Cheng?"

"Classical music is pretty good. Maybe it's because of Wen Yixiao's good looks? Anyway, I kept watching."

"This is my first time watching this show, and it's okay."

"Are the two players at the back good at playing? I can't see anything."

"Are you still watching? I've changed the channel and will watch again when Wang Cheng appears!"

"Wang Cheng finally came out. This casual outfit is really out of place!"

"Wow, Wang Cheng's performance is so nice, isn't it? This is the first time I have felt that the piano sounds so nice."

"It sounds so good. Watching Wang Cheng's performance is a pleasure, a visual and auditory enjoyment!"

"There is a touch of sadness when listening to it, and it reminds me of my first love."

"Listening to Wang Cheng's performance, it feels like watching a tragic love movie, with a sense of imagery!"

"I really didn't expect that Wang Cheng's piano playing could be so good?"

"It is said that this piece of music was written by Wang Cheng himself, and it's called Piano Etudes No. 1!"

"Etude No. 1? The name is Willful."

"sounds so good……"

…

After some comments, the popularity of the musician program increased again, but the comments about Wang Cheng also skyrocketed again, leaving Wen Yixiao, who had just gained popularity, behind again.

Many insiders who paid attention to the musician's program were shocked at this time.

A classical music program!

It seems that he was also taken off by Wang Cheng?

Calls came to the musician program team one after another, and they all wanted to know what the ratings of the program were now!

Even Hu Xiaoshan, Zhao Donghu, and Li Guang received calls from acquaintances.

And with their positions, the only people who can call them are the big guys in the industry.

Li Guang received a call from Zhang Huizhong. Facing Zhang Huizhong's inquiry, Li Guang truthfully told the launch data and said with a wry smile: "The ratings may not be as high as you think. It depends on the ratings of Wang Cheng's appearance. This This time I may break what you said."

Zhang Huizhong: "What are you talking about?"

Li Guang: "That's right, there is a law that Wang Cheng can achieve a minimum rating of four if the ratings are guaranteed!"

Zhang Huizhong smiled and said: "I said it casually, don't take it seriously. There are no rules in this industry. Then I will call you after the show is over."

Li Guang: "Okay, Director Zhang."

Zhang Huizhong asked again: "By the way, I heard that Wang Cheng is going to hold a solo concert. Is it true?"

Li Guang answered affirmatively: "It's true. We're making preparations, maybe tomorrow and the day after tomorrow! Rubik's Cube Entertainment is moving very quickly."

Zhang Huizhong: "Then I can't miss it. To be honest, I really didn't expect that Wang Cheng is also a big boss in classical music."

Li Guang also smiled and said, "Who would have thought?"

The two hung up the phone.

After Wang Cheng's performance, there was another competition performance between the two contestants.

Li Guang, Hu Xiaoshan, and Zhao Donghu are all paying attention to the discussion about the musician program and Wang Cheng on the Internet. It can be seen that when Wang Cheng left and the two contestants came to compete, the popularity of the program dropped rapidly. Everyone was obviously concerned about it. The two players had little interest.

When the two contestants finished their performance, the discussion among the musicians immediately increased a lot, because everyone knew that Wang Cheng was about to appear.

Li Guang, Hu Xiaoshan, and Zhao Donghu also nervously received the second report card tonight!

The first ratings data after Wang Cheng's appearance came out.

Li Guang took the data sheet and was afraid to look at it for a while.

Hu Xiaoshan and Zhao Donghu hurriedly stretched their necks and looked over. When they saw the first number, they both trembled.
