Chen Zhe was very interested when he heard Song Mingen's proposal. After all, he has two goals now - one is to make a breakthrough in his career and be promoted from an 18th-tier artist to a fourth-tier star as soon as possible; the other is to urgently obtain popularity value, earn enough savings, and develop human evolution reagents.

Being able to participate in another variety show is crucial to Chen Zhe, so he asked with a smile: "Mingen, who is the Uncle Fan you are talking about?"

Song Mingen smiled and introduced: "Oh, Uncle Fan, he is my grandfather's disciple. He used to start the Internet business, but now he mainly runs an entertainment company."

Song Mingyuan introduced more specific things: "Uncle Fan is called Fan Kuan, and the entertainment company he runs is called Fanxing Interactive Entertainment. Since Mr. Chen is a star, he should have heard of it, right?"

When Chen Zhe heard this, he couldn't help but say inwardly: "I'm not respectful."

"This Uncle Fan turns out to be the famous Fan Kuan..."

Chen Zhe said with a smile.

Fan Kuan and his Fanxing Interactive Entertainment are a very famous entertainment company in the world. This company rose three years ago and swept most of the entertainment industry with sparks in just three years.

At first, Fan Kuan was involved in the Internet industry, and later began to focus on shooting online dramas. Speaking of Ouyang Meixi's debut work "The Soulless Taoist" is the work of Fan Kuan's Fanxing Interactive Entertainment.

Unexpectedly, Fan Kuan, who tasted the sweetness in online dramas, was ambitious and began to develop in variety shows again. As soon as he made a move, he focused on the largest large-scale music competitive variety show in China, "We Are Singers", and wanted to compete with them.

"So, Mr. Fan Kuan is currently working on creating a music competitive variety show?" Chen Zhe asked curiously.

"Yes, I remember that he said this when he met last time." Song Mingen said.

After that, Song Mingen quickly helped Chen Zhe to make a comeback: "Mr. Chen, if you are willing to cooperate with Uncle Fan, I think you can definitely spark a spark."

Song Mingyuan also agreed: "With Mr. Chen's strength and Uncle Fan's platform, you can definitely create a variety show that surpasses "We Are Singers"!"

Mr. Song next to him was happy and immediately made a decision: "Why not do this? I'll call Xiao Fan now and arrange this matter."

Chen Zhe did not refuse, and immediately said with a smile: "Then I'll trouble Mr. Song."

The old man smiled: "My old life is given by Mr. Chen, what does this mere trivial matter count?"

...

After making a move with Mr. Song, Chen Zhe received a call from Fan Kuan that night.

Just as he was sitting in the study to update today's serialization of "Fighting the Universe", his phone suddenly rang.

"Hey, hello." Chen Zhe saw that it was a strange number and guessed that it was probably Fan Kuan, so he asked politely.

A thick and polite male voice immediately came from the phone.

"Is it Mr. Chen Zhe? I am Fan Kuan, the disciple of Mr. Song..."

Chen Zhe thought to himself, "Sure enough", smiled slightly, and said, "Hello, Mr. Fan, don't be so polite, just call me Chen Zhe."

However, Fan Kuan quickly smiled and said, "That's not possible. Mr. Chen is Mr. Song's benefactor, which is equivalent to my benefactor. Mr. Chen must call him this time."

When Chen Zhe heard Fan Kuan be persistent, he did not overly entangle in his name. However, Fan Kuan is the top leader of an entertainment company. Even if he meets a top-tier superstar, he has to please and flatter. It is surprising that he is so polite to Chen Zhe, an 18th-tier artist.

At this time, Fan Kuan said again: "Mr. Chen, actually, when you participated in "The Great Survival of the Wild", I noticed your talent. "Sorrowful Sorrow" and "The Brightest Star in the Night Sky" are the best songs that have been born in the past five years. Both the melody and the lyrics have reached a peak level...

In addition, Mr. Chen, your singing skills are also very good. I realized this as early as "Survival in the Wild".

Later, you won the championship four consecutive times on the stage of "We Are Singers", which proved my judgment. But unfortunately, the shady scenes behind the stage of "We Are Singers" are too serious, and you will inevitably be affected..."

Chen Zhe smiled lightly, and did not show any regret or indignation.

He asked calmly: "It seems that Mr. Song has told you what's behind the scenes?"

"No, you misunderstood. Mr. Song didn't say anything." Fan Kuan clarified, "Mr. Song just asked me to contact you, but he didn't explain the reason behind it. As for your withdrawal from the competition, I found out myself. I have some friends in the team of "We Are Singers", so I know more about it."

After hearing this, Chen Zhe couldn't help but secretly admire Fan Kuan's wrist.

The "We Are Singers" team is currently the most professional team in the industry, but even so Fan Kuan can actually install eyeliners in it. It is not an exaggeration to call this method "hands and eyes open to the sky".

Sure enough, Fan Kuan planned to compete with "We Are Singers" and did his preliminary work very well.

After amazement, Chen Zhe did not reveal it, but said lightly: "Mr. Fan is a good method."

"Thank you for the praise." Fan Kuan smiled and said, "Actually, Mr. Chen, even if he didn't have the recommendation of Mr. Song, I intend to contact you. Not only you, but also Shu Qian, who also withdrew from the "We Are Singers" program...

Because you and Shu Qian are both among the few powerful singers in the Chinese music scene at present, they can win over you two, which is a very powerful help for the programs we have not recorded yet."

Chen Zhe said: "At present, I can only guarantee you that I will participate in this show, but Shu Qian can try to contact me."

"That would be great." Fan Kuan said, "I wonder if Mr. Chen has time tomorrow? If you have time, I will visit me in person tomorrow and we will meet and talk. I don't know if it's okay?"

"No problem." Chen Zhe smiled, "Then we will see you tomorrow."

...

At ten o'clock the next morning, Fan Kuan appeared at the door of Chen Zhe's house as promised.

Because I have seen Fan Kuan on news and reports many times, Chen Zhe is already very familiar with the face of the boss of Fanxing Interactive Entertainment.

Fan Kuan has also met Chen Zhe many times on the stages of "Survival in the Wild" and "We Are Singers", so neither of them was particularly strange after meeting.

"Mr. Chen looks more energetic than on TV..." Fan Kuan praised as soon as he met.

"So too, Mr. Fan, looks much younger." Chen Zhe responded politely.

Yan'er quickly brought a cup of tea to Fan Kuan. When Fan Kuan saw that Chen Zhe was still "hiding" a beautiful woman at home, he was stunned at first, and then immediately recognized her and said with a smile: "Isn't this Yan'er?"

Yan'er was a little surprised and said shyly: "Mr. Fan still knows me?"

"Of course, Chen Zhe's partner in "The Great Survival of the Wild", how could he not know you?" Fan Kuan said with a smile.

However, seeing Chen Zhe and Yan'er living together, Fan Kuan immediately smiled and asked, "You two are now..."

Yan'er's face turned red and she gently pushed Chen Zhe, meaning that she wanted Chen Zhe to explain.

Chen Zhe quickly said, "Oh, that's right. We were neighbors before. Later, I bought a house and Yan'er, a girl, received a large bonus. I was worried that it would be dangerous for her to live alone, so I asked her to move in with me."

"So that's the case... I misunderstood, sorry." Fan Kuan said with a smile.

Chen Zhe smiled, and Yan'er also smiled and shook her head and said, "It's okay."

After sitting in the living room, Chen Zhe asked straight to the point: "I heard that Mr. Fan is planning to create a variety show that is comparable to "We Are Singers", right?"

"It's true." Fan Kuan nodded and said, "You also know that our Fanxing Interactive Entertainment started out as an animation and online drama. Now I want our group to be more diversified and have stronger competitiveness, so I plan to start making variety shows...

Among the many variety shows, the simplest form and the most popular one is the music competition variety show. I saw that the variety show "We Are Singers" has been popular for three consecutive seasons, so I plan to follow the example and make a variety show that matches it."

After hearing this, Chen Zhe nodded and asked, "But "We Are Singers" has a foundation for three seasons. Although there are dark scenes, it has a good reputation among the audience at present.

In addition, "We Are Singers" is backed by S City TV, and it still has certain brand benefits. If Mr. Fan wants to compete with them, he must have some advantages? What are the advantages of Mr. Fan's benchmark with "We Are Singers"?"

Fan Kuan immediately said: "This is actually the question I have been thinking about before. What are our advantages? To be honest, our Fanxing Interactive Entertainment and S City TV station are definitely unmatched. After all, we are just rising stars.

I have been struggling with this question before. Why do we compare with the gold medal variety show "We Are Singers"? How can we defeat it? Because we have not gotten the answer for a long time, our variety show has not been implemented yet.

However, after Mr. Chen and Shu Qian, you two heavyweight singers, left "We Are Singers" one after another, I realized that my opportunity had come.

Mr. Chen, you are my capital, you are the key to my defeat of "We Are Singers". As long as we win over singers who are better than the singers in "We Are Singers", will our music competitive variety shows surpass them? After all, excellent singers are the core of music competitive singers, right?"

After hearing Fan Kuan's words, Chen Zhe smiled and nodded.

"Thank you Mr. Fan for your affirmation."

But immediately he negated:

"But please be honest, it is not easy to support a variety show with just one or two excellent singers.

Mr. Fan, what you want to create must be an evergreen, which can become a brand, or even surpass the phenomenon-level variety show of "We Are Singers", rather than pursuing a flash in the pan, right?"

"Yes." Fan Kuan nodded, "Of course we have to pursue a evergreen variety show, which is my real goal."

Chen Zhe nodded and said, "Then this variety show must have more highlights than "We Are Singers", and it must have advantages that "We Are Singers" has not achieved.

Indeed, I agree to join your variety show now. With my persuasion, Shu Qian will probably join this variety show. But we can only participate in this variety show for one season, and we can't participate in every season, right?

In other words, we can only ensure that the quality of this variety show is higher than that of "We Are Singers" in a short period of time, but we cannot guarantee it for too long."

After listening to Chen Zhe's words, Fan Kuan admitted with a serious expression: "It's true."

"So Mr. Fan, if you want to completely surpass "We Are Singers", you must make greater innovations. Do you have any good ideas in this regard?" Chen Zhe asked.

"This... I really don't have it." Fan Kuan smiled bitterly, "To be honest, Mr. Chen, I have thought of all the suggestions you made. This is actually a requirement I made to my team. I ask them to surpass and innovate in this variety show.

Beyond means surpassing what "We Are Singers" currently has. The advantages they have in this column are, and we need to do better.

Innovation means adding something that "We Are Singers" does not have, and we must do the advantages that they cannot do."

Chen Zhe said: "Your way of thinking is right."

Fan Kuan smiled bitterly and said, "But what if the idea is right? This requirement is very simple, but it is difficult to do it. Just like the final exam, I always ask our children to do better this time than the last time.

Making a request is just to move your mouth, but it is harder to achieve this request than to climb the sky.”

But when she said this, when Fan Kuan saw Chen Zhe’s confident look, he suddenly asked thoughtfully: “Mr. Chen, do you have any ideas?”

Chen Zhe smiled softly and nodded, "I'm going to tell you, I really have a way of thinking."

As a time traveler, Chen Zhe has seen music variety shows in another world. If you choose one of these music variety shows, you can compete with "We Are Singers".

Fan Kuan hurriedly asked for advice humbly: "Mr. Chen, tell me your thoughts."

Chen Zhe nodded and said in an orderly manner: "If you want to surpass "We Are Singers", you must understand the advantages of this variety show, and how should we play to our strengths and avoid our weaknesses.

As a traditional music competition variety show, "We Are Singers" has basically achieved the ultimate in music competition - please invite the most powerful singers in the music industry to participate in the program and use the best stage design and sound effects to bring an auditory feast.

In addition, "We Are Singers" has been in three seasons, and their audience has developed loyalty, so if we want to do another variety show to compete with them, we don't have much chance of winning..."

(It's a new month, please give me a monthly ticket~)
