Friday night, seven o'clock.

The finals of "Chinese Idol" will begin soon, with more than 2,000 spectators starting to enter the venue.

As the championship game gets closer and closer, the atmosphere among the fans is becoming more and more tense.

Today, the popularity of the top eight players can be said to be rising rapidly. Not only Zheng Qian, but the fans of the other seven players are also growing by leaps and bounds. They are Su Jing, Yu Qianlian, Zhang Qiusheng, Jiang Ruolin, Wei Yifan, Yu Wei, and Song Zixun.

.

The popularity of each contestant is now comparable to that of top-tier singers.

You know, the topics in the music industry in the past two months have basically revolved around them. For college, middle and primary school students across the country, "Chinese Idol" can be said to have occupied their entire summer vacation in 2004.

This is the first nationwide talent show, with over 100 million viewers. It is not only popular in China, but also has many overseas media following and reporting on this show. "Chinese Idol" programs often appear in TV news in Japan, South Korea and other places.

Backstage, lounge.

The top eight players gathered together with a contract in front of them.

Just now, Li Dongtian, general manager of Tianhao Shengshi and director of "Chinese Idol", distributed these eight intended contracts to everyone.

Everyone took a quick look and found that the content of the contract basically required the players to sign into Tianhao Shengshi after the event.

There are two years, five years and ten years written in the contract, and each period represents a different allocation of resources.

The longer it takes to sign, the more resources will be skewed.

For example, popular programs such as "Happy Camp" and "The More You Test, the Happier You Are" are guaranteed to be recorded once a month.

For example, some TV drama roles, as well as the most basic record contracts, etc., Tianhao Shengshi will do its best to support them.

At this moment, all the players looked at Zheng Qian, as if Zheng Qian suddenly became the backbone.

"Brother Qian, do you want to sign?" Yu Qianqian couldn't help but ask.

Zheng Qian frowned.

He expected this scene, but he didn't expect it to happen so quickly. Before it even reached the real arena, Li Dongtian couldn't hold it in any longer.

Among the top eight, Zheng Qian, Yu Wei, and Zhang Qiusheng have their own companies. If they sign this contract, the liquidated damages will be a huge amount. However, Li Dongtian said that this part of the liquidated damages will be fully paid by Tianhao Shengshi.

bear.

When he came on stage, everyone was a little confused when he came out like this.

Suddenly, Zhang Qiusheng bit off the cap of his pen, picked up the pen and signed his name on the contract of intent. While signing, he sneered: "There is nothing wrong with signing into Tianhao Shengshi. With the support of Xiangnan TV Station, there will be a shortage of you."

Resources? If you don’t sign, just wait until you are eliminated!”

Another contestant Song Zixun also signed his name with a smile: "Actually, you don't have to think so much. Ever since I started participating in this show, I knew that there would be such a day sooner or later. We have no choice, and the most important thing is that you

Maybe we haven’t figured it out yet, even if we sign this intention contract, it’s not certain whether we can sign a formal contract!”

"Zixun is right. This is just a contract of intention, which does not restrict us much. What Li Dongtian wants is our attitude."

Jiang Ruolin also signed her name.

When Wei Yifan saw this, although he felt a little uncomfortable, his awareness of the law was weak, so he still signed the intention contract.

In fact, deep down in their hearts, they feel that the Shonan TV station is a big business and has so many resources. Even though it is a start-up company, it has broad prospects and will not rip off young singers like themselves.

In the end, only Zheng Qian, Yu Qianqian, Su Jing and Yu Wei were left without signing.

Yu Wei looked a little nervous: "I don't really want to sign."

Everyone expressed their understanding that Huaying Media, the company behind Yu Wei, is one of the largest companies in the industry. Although Tianhao Shengshi is backed by Hunan Satellite TV, it is a start-up company after all. At this stage, Huaying Media is obviously stronger, and with its reputation

Yu Wei has gained a lot of popularity in "Chinese Idol". After the competition, she will be highly praised when she returns to her original company and leaves. There is no need to take this risk.

Su Jing tilted her head and thought for a while, then said hesitantly: "I don't know whether signing or not will have a decisive impact on the game..."

Zheng Qian looked at her: "Do you want to win?"

"think!"

"Then sign it!"

Su Jing was stunned and suddenly signed her name quickly.

Then he turned over this simple intention contract and pressed it lightly with a pen.

Then, she looked at Zheng Qian silently.

Zheng Qian smiled, turned the cap of his pen, and glanced at Yu Qianqian.

Yu Qianqian was quiet for a long time, and finally gritted his teeth and signed his name.

But he turned to Zheng Qian and said: "Brother Qian, we have no choice but to sign. But brother Qian, you should be cautious. With your current popularity, no matter where you go, you will be sought after. Many big companies want you."

…”

Zheng Qian didn't speak. He just closed the pen cap and put it on the table. He raised his watch and took a look at it. He said, "The live broadcast will start soon. Everyone, please get ready! I'm going to the bathroom!"

After Zheng Qian left the lounge and looked at the contract of intent lying quietly on the table, the other seven players all had complicated expressions.

Brother Qian didn’t sign!

At this moment, even Zhang Qiusheng admired Zheng Qian. Is he going to openly confront Li Dongtian?

In addition, Yu Wei was almost crying.

She didn't sign it either!

At this time, she already had an ominous premonition in her heart.

This time eight into six, she will definitely occupy one of the spots.

As for Brother Qian, Yu Wei is not sure whether he will also be eliminated.

Because Zheng Qian's current strength and popularity are definitely among the top three in the standard, it is not an exaggeration to even win the championship directly. If he is eliminated in this game, the impact and consequences will definitely be explosive, and the angry people will

The number of complaints from Xiangnan Satellite TV was overwhelming.

There has been precedent for this before.

At this moment, the seven players have their own thoughts in their hearts.

Soon, it was attracting the attention of audiences across the country.

The program officially launched.

This time, the rules of the competition are based on a lottery system, divided into four groups, with two teams competing against each other. The losing players are divided into two groups again, and PK continues. Players who lose again will be eliminated directly.

Simple, brutal, fair and transparent.

In addition, thirty-five public judges also arrived in time.

Everyone's face is full of excitement. These people are the lucky ones selected by Xiangnan Satellite TV through various channels. They have various occupations, including nurses, professors, hawkers, college students...

Although the three professional judges are all consistently strong, their status in the circle is at the top.

Among them is Liu Huan, a professor at Beijing Music University, a famous original musician and music educator.

There is also Wei Yehong, a popular and powerful singer who is affiliated with the Kongzheng Art Troupe.

And Han Lei, a powerful singer in the music industry who has participated in the CCTV Spring Festival Gala six times in a row.

Han Lei himself was also a civilian cadre in the Second Artillery Art Troupe at the deputy division level, two levels higher than Wei Yehong.

Two big figures from the art troupe and a highly respected senior in the industry suddenly came, which raised the level of the entire program a lot.

Among them, Wei Yehong and Zheng Qian were old acquaintances. The two had just collaborated on the theme song "As Long as I Have You" for "Young Bao Zheng". They came to be judges this time and did not mention it to Zheng Qian. When they met backstage, Zheng Qian

They were all shocked.

Then, under the introduction of Wei Yehong, Zheng Qian got to know Mr. Liu Huan and Mr. Han Lei briefly, and they all expressed praise and appreciation for Zheng Qian.

Suddenly getting to know the two big guys, Zheng Qian straightened his back instantly. When he returned to the lounge, he looked at the contract of intent and didn't care at all.

He crossed his arms nonchalantly for a moment.

In the audience, Li Dongtian flipped through the eight intention contracts in his hand and fell into deep thought.

Almost everyone signed it.

Only Zheng Qian and Yu Wei did not sign.

In fact, Li Dongtian doesn't really care whether Yu Wei signs or not.

The first is that the agency behind Yu Wei is very powerful, and Li Dongtian had no intention of signing her.

Huaying Media's amount of liquidated damages is no joke, it is absolutely an astronomical sum. What's more, she is also at the bottom among the eight contestants. To get to where she is today, three points depend on strength and seven points depend on luck.

Zheng Qian didn't sign, which was actually what Li Dongtian expected.

But now that my guess has been confirmed, I suddenly feel quite troubled.

It can be said that the contracts of these seven people combined are not worth the value of Zheng Qian alone.

The industry's valuation of the small company Yuexiang Entertainment ranged from over 10 million at the beginning to 30 million later.

Now, it has doubled again, approaching 70 million.

If Zheng Qian wins the "Chinese Idol" championship in one fell swoop, it is not impossible for Yuexiang Entertainment to be valued at over 100 million.
