Chapter 507 Talent Show and Charlotte's Chinese Voice(1/2)
Under Ma Dongmei's strong suppression, Xia Luo, who was so manipulated, was ultimately unable to fulfill her wish to speak on stage.
The wedding ceremony ended successfully with the applause of relatives and friends, followed by Zhang Jin and Qiu Ya opening champagne and cutting the cake.
After all this is done, the wedding banquet officially begins!
Because it is a wedding held in Bali, the banquet will naturally not be the same as in China. It will be more of a buffet style, allowing guests to freely choose their tables and chat partners.
There were no unexpected incidents during the toasting session. With Zhang Jin's current drinking capacity, no punishment would be able to daunt him.
After the round of toasts, Charlotte went directly to Zhang Jin.
Zhang Jin saw him coming and asked with a smile: "Why, you are not convinced and you still want to have a drink with me?"
Xia Luo quickly waved his hand and said: "Knowing that you have a good drinking capacity and can stay drunk after a thousand drinks, I won't humiliate myself. By the way, why don't I see Qiu Ya by your side?"
"Qiu Ya and Dong Mei went to change their clothes. Do you have anything to do with her?"
"Just asking, I'm not looking for him, I'm looking for you. But don't worry, I'm not here to argue with you. Although I am really unhappy about Qiu Ya marrying you, she will always be my first love goddess in my memory, so I
I still want to bless her and you all." Charlotte said.
Zhang Jin could hear the sincerity in the other party's pretended to be relaxed tone, and secretly thought that the knot in the other party's heart about pursuing Qiu Ya should be solved.
He asked: "Then what do you want from me?"
Charlotte took a cocktail from the tray in the hand of the waiter who passed by, took a few sips, frowned and said in disgust: "What does it taste so weird?"
He casually put the cocktail on the table next to him, and then explained the reason for his visit: "We are all old classmates, so I won't beat around the bush and tell you straight to the point. I want to discuss cooperation with you."
"Aren't we always cooperating? You are the spokesperson of Daxiang Club." Zhang Jin said with a smile.
"I'm not talking about this kind of cooperation, but a deeper cooperation."
"for example?"
"For example, let's do a variety show together. I told you that as long as you are willing to plan and produce this variety show according to my method, I guarantee that this show will be unique in the country, Asia, and even the world, and the ratings will be absolutely hot!
"
Hearing Xia Luo's words, Zhang Jin couldn't help but have an idea flash in his mind. The other party was going to create a good voice in China.
It goes without saying who the prototype of China's Good Voice created by Charlotte is. According to the plot development in the movie, he should have successfully produced this program after the 2008 Olympics.
It was only 2005 that Zhang Jin could hear about this program from him. Although Zhang Jin was a little surprised, it was not too surprising.
In 2004, Mango Channel launched Super Girl for the first time, which caused quite a stir and attention in a small area.
However, the first experience of the Super Girl draft at this time was not too successful. The contestants were immature, the TV station lacked production experience, and the audience lacked interest in watching melons. This made the draft more or less "caught off guard" in the eyes of future generations.
.
Zhang Jin estimated that Xia Luo also knew the news and came up with the idea of hosting a talent show of his own. After all, his talent was limited and he couldn't keep writing songs like this. He had to find a way out for himself.
However, even with Charlotte's current status and weight in the industry, it is not that easy to produce a variety show. After all, investors will not blindly believe in his worthless talent when the market is not yet optimistic about it.
Making experience stars.
Only after this year or next year's second and third edition of Super Girl expands and expands the market will more investors come in to share the cake, and will Charlotte have a chance to find a sponsor willing to invest in China's Good Voice.
The huge success of Super Girl is not an exaggeration to use the analogy of the whole country rejoicing. Super Girl not only promoted the terms draft, PK, and auditions to become widely known terms, but also created a draft economics, opening up the domestic
An era of creating civilian idols has laid a solid foundation for star-making.
Seeing that Zhang Jin was silent, Xia Luo thought that he was still hesitant, so he started to tell him the concept and development prospects of his variety show.
"I have been thinking about this variety show for a long time and have a relatively complete and mature structure, specifically..."
Charlotte talked about all the features of The Voice, including the fact that the judging criteria is only "singing voice", the judges' mentors conduct blind swivel chair auditions for the contestants, the contestants and the judges' mentors can choose in both directions, and the judges' mentors will perform together with the students.
"What do you think of my idea for this variety show? Isn't it very good!? Don't hesitate, believe me, this show will definitely be a hit in the ratings. When the time comes, you can also sell the program copyright to Europe and the United States and earn a lot of money from foreigners.
One stroke!”
Zhang Jin looked at the confident Xia Luo, pondered for a while, and then said: "I am really interested in this variety show you mentioned. How do you want to cooperate with me?"
Charlotte quickly said: "In this way, you contribute the money and I will step in, and we will share the benefits equally. What do you think?"
Zhang Jin nodded and said, "I think it's okay."
"So you have agreed to produce this variety show with me? That's great. After you finish your honeymoon, we will find a time to talk about the production of the show in detail as soon as possible!" Charlotte couldn't help but be happy.
Zhang Jin raised his hand and made a calm gesture: "Although I promised to invest in this program with you, I won't do it now."
"When was that?"
"Let's give it another year or two."
Charlotte suddenly raised her voice: "Why do you have to wait so long? We are so quick. We don't seize the market. What if someone else seizes it? Do you know that there is a talent show called Super Girl on Mango Channel? It must be us.
The competition is fierce! So we must get ahead of the other side and attract the attention of the national audience to our program!"
Zhang Jin shook his head: "I think Super Girl is not our strong competitor, but a pioneer who explores our paths and expands our territory."
"When it expands its territory and takes over all the territory, what will we do? It will just eat the rest?" Charlotte said.
"Have you ever read The Romance of the Three Kingdoms? There is a sentence at the beginning that says, 'The world's general trend will be divided for a long time.' Perhaps the emergence of Super Girl is indeed like the Qin Dynasty's unification of the world, but who can guarantee that Super Girl's dynasty will continue forever? Wan
One day the authorities take action, or the audience gets tired of watching the Super Girl draft, won't this huge market be taken out of its hands?" Zhang Jin said.
Hearing this, Charlotte thought for a moment and nodded in agreement: "It seems to make sense. Super Girl is indeed short-lived. She will not be able to do it in 2009..."
At this point, he suddenly stopped and looked at Zhang Jin cautiously. After making sure that nothing was wrong with his words, he breathed a sigh of relief and asked, "Then when do you plan to invest in the production of this variety show?"
Zhang Jin followed his words and replied: "I plan to wait for the Super Girl program to open up and cultivate the economic market of this talent show. We will harvest mature fans at the entrance. And if a program wants to be popular, the right time, right place and the right people are indispensable.
.I think it would be better to prepare in 2008 and launch in 2009."
Charlotte thought for a while and agreed: "Okay, no problem, I think it's okay. But you have to sign an agreement with me, promising not to plagiarize my creative ideas about this variety show just now."
"..." Zhang Jin couldn't help but feel speechless when he heard this request, "Are you so worried about me, an old classmate?"
"Blood brothers are still settling accounts. Old classmates are friendship, cooperation is business, friendship is friendship, and business is business." Charlotte waved his hand and explained, "This is not a matter of being at ease or not, but it is the only way to do it in case something goes wrong in the future.
Only by solving the problem can we avoid hurting our feelings."
If something really goes wrong, there will be no feelings, and it will hurt the hell! Zhang Jin muttered in his heart, but still agreed to his request.
After talking about co-producing a variety show, the two casually chatted for a few words, and the topic turned to love and marriage.
Charlotte, who had drunk too much, grabbed Zhang Jin and pointed at his nose, and said in an unconvinced tone: "If I hadn't been busy rehearsing on stage with that sister, and often not accompanying Qiu Ya at school, you wouldn't have taken advantage of me.
opportunity. If I wasn’t so obsessed with becoming famous, I wouldn’t have lost Qiu Ya. Do you think I did something wrong?”
"I think you are right."
"Oh, is it so!?"
"Everyone's choice is a reflection of their inner thoughts. You think becoming famous is more important than Qiu Ya, so you choose to become famous first and then pursue Qiu Ya."
"Then why do I regret it now?" Charlotte asked.
"You can't have your cake and eat it too. To judge whether a person really regrets it or not, it depends on whether you are willing to give up everything you have now in exchange for what you have lost. Are you willing to give up your current money and status in exchange for Qiu Ya?"
Zhang Jin said.
Charlotte stretched out a finger decisively: "I... don't know!"
Zhang Jin looked at him flatly: "You hesitated. I'll give you another chance. Are you willing to give up your current financial status in exchange for Qiu Ya?"
Charlotte drunkenly waved her hand, avoided his gaze, pointed to the stars in the sky and said: "Why can't you have your cake and eat it too? I work so hard to become the brightest star in the sky just to live a better life."
Most people are nice, I want the fish too, I want the bear’s paw too! I want them all!”
Zhang Jin suddenly asked: "If you were asked to use your current money and status to get Ma Dongmei back, would you be willing?"
Xia Luo was stunned when he heard this. The sea breeze made his head sober up a little. He turned to look at Zhang Jin and couldn't help but laugh: "What do you mean, are you kidding me? Use my current money and status in exchange for Ma Dongmei."
, is she worthy? Hahaha!"
"Maybe she is not worthy now, but who guarantees that she will not be worthy in the future." Zhang Jin said lightly.
"Hahaha! This is the funniest joke I've ever heard! Ma Dongmei, with her appearance, who cares?" Charlotte kept slapping her thighs, laughing so hard that she burst into tears.
.
Zhang Jin looked at Xia Luo quietly, and waited until he was almost smiling before he said, "If we have a chance, let's try Ma Dongmei's cooking skills together. I heard that she is very good at cooking noodles."
Charlotte wiped the corners of her eyes and laughed with tears, and said disapprovingly: "The only way she cooks noodles is the braised noodles with fennel, and there is nothing delicious. I guarantee that after eating it once, you won't think about it a second time. Instead of trying hers,
For craftsmanship, it’s better to just go to a street noodle shop.”
"It costs money to go to a noodle shop on the street, but it doesn't cost anything to eat Dongmei's noodles."
"You are such a rich man, why do you still care about this small amount of noodles? If you really can't, I'll treat you to as many bowls as you want."
"I'm just asking you, are you going?"
Seeing that he had been talking about this, Xia Luo was a little surprised and said: "Are you serious, do you really want to eat Ma Dongmei's noodles?"
Zhang Jin nodded seriously: "Of course, just say whether you want to go or not?"
"No!" Charlotte refused flatly.
Just kidding, in my previous life I ate it for most of my life, and the smell of fennel almost leaked out from my sweat. I will never eat fennel braised noodles again in this life, absolutely not!
