Debuting After Eight Years of Time Travel: 445. The craziest player in history, the highest prize money in history! (Please subscribe)
lnmao.org, the fastest update to the latest chapter that took eight years to debut!
The Voice program group has been called one of the most successful program groups in the history of television production!
If we only talk about making money, then one of them can be removed. It can be said to be the most profitable TV program group in history.
Of course
The cooperating TV stations have also gained huge benefits as a result, causing the market value of its parent company to surge by nearly 40% in the past month. It has temporarily become the largest media group in North America, surpassing the six largest media groups in Hollywood in a short period of time. The parent company behind it has suppressed it.
The domestic parent companies of several major copyright holders have also seen significant increases in value.
The interest groups represented behind this are huge throughout the world.
But.
Many professional media and commentators have analyzed the reason behind this success and there is one word - luck! And, contingency, and non-replicability.
Most professionals believe that the success of the program team is luck and cannot be replicated.
Because.
The format of the program is really not innovative. It is an old model and old program that audiences from all over the world have watched for nearly ten years.
Ten judges?
Although they were once important names in the music circles of various countries.
However, nowadays they are basically of the cool old school, and their appeal is far inferior to that of the big-name singers and celebrities who are currently popular in various countries.
So, the conclusions of most analyzes are similar.
That is, the highlight of success lies in the players.
In other words, it is concentrated on a few players, mainly Wang Qian, followed by Sophie, and then Adam, Elizabeth and Miyuki Nakamori.
The players who were eliminated in the first round also had merit, but very little. Their role was to prove the true strength of Wang Qian and other players.
Most professional media and industry insiders believe that Wang Qian is responsible for more than half of the current success of The Voice World Championship.
If other contestants are replaced, the program may be affected, but the number of viewers will drop by about 10% at most.
However, if Wang Qian is gone, the number of viewers of the show will drop by at least 70%, and the appeal of the entire show will drop by more than 80%.
This point
The program team itself knows best, because the program team has the most authentic and detailed background data.
Wang Qian supported most of the ratings data, which they all knew very well, so they gave Wang Qian preferential treatment if they could. They even set up a high championship bonus and promised to give Wang Qian entertainment. A few minutes of playing time alone is something that has never happened in any talent show.
This morning.
The program team convened a meeting and it lasted two hours.
After the meeting, Zhou Qinghua called Wang Qian immediately.
Dududu
The phone rang a few times before being answered.
Zhou Qinghua immediately smiled and said: "Professor Wang, congratulations, congratulations, you broke the record again."
Wang Qian was lying on the sofa, basking in the warm winter sunshine comfortably, leaning on Qin Xuerong's legs, and said casually: "Same joy, same joy. Director Zhou, you are a busy man, just tell me if you have anything to do. Well, what instructions does the program team have?”
Zhou Qinghua smiled and said: "Nothing. Just, we had a meeting today to discuss the arrangements for the end of the show. I want to confirm it with you and a few contestants."
Wang Qian: "Well, Director Zhou, tell me, I'm listening."
Zhou Qinghua: "As for the weekend finals performance, we won't make any more arrangements. The stage will be given to you and Sophie. There are only six performances to determine the outcome!"
Wang Qian: "Yes, yes."
Wang Qian has no objection to this. Being more relaxed and simple can also make the finals more pure.
Some talent shows make some messy things in the finals, trying to steal the limelight as much as possible, without respecting the two finalists at all.
Zhou Qinghua continued: "One more thing! After the finals, next weekend, we will arrange an encore performance, the farewell performance of the annual Good Voice World Championship. The ten contestants will appear together, just like the opening performance. Same thing, give an explanation to all players and audiences from all over the world.”
Wang Qian listened and said calmly: "Director Zhou, I have never rested since I came to Los Angeles. I am very tired and want to take a rest. Therefore, I will not go to this farewell performance. I want to go early. Go home and take a rest.”
Uh!
There was silence on the phone.
Zhou Qinghua then carefully considered his tone and said softly: "Professor Wang, the program team wants the World Championship to have a successful ending, which is also responsible for your players and the fans who support you. Of course, considering that Professor Wang It is indeed one of the two contestants with the most performances. We can give you some performance compensation."
Wang Qian: "The championship bonus has been increased by two points."
Don’t talk about Zhou Qinghua on the other end of the phone.
Even Qin Xuerong, who was stroking Wang Qian's hair, was stunned and his movements became stiff.
The previous winner's prize for The Voice was already high enough, accounting for 5% of the total box office revenue. It was estimated to be more than 300 million U.S. dollars and may reach 400 million U.S. dollars
This is a number that will make everyone crazy when they see it. Whether they are homeless people on the streets of Los Angeles or wealthy major shareholders of Seattle high-tech companies, they will think this program team is crazy when they see this number.
This is just a variety show.
It's just a singing competition.
Why can you get so much at once?
Many big-name singers in the European and American music circles have never earned so much in their entire lives.
And now
Wang Qian would like to mention two more points, that is seven percent of the total box office revenue?
A championship prize of up to 5.6 billion US dollars?
Qin Xuerong's breathing became a little heavier. She didn't think this number was artificially large. After all, Wang Qian's income recently exceeded this number and his income will be even more in the future.
However, compared to a singing competition, this prize number is indeed crazy enough.
The most important thing is
This is the third time Wang Qian has made conditions to the program team.
Which talent show contestant is so bold?
Forget about imposing conditions, if you dare not follow the script of the show team, we will eliminate you and hide you in minutes.
Wang Qian has already mentioned the bonus twice, and the program team agreed to both.
First you want the championship bonus!
Okay!
Give 100 million US dollars!
I feel like the bonus is too low again!
Okay!
Another 5% of the total box office
I still feel low now
Which program group in the world can endure this?
Zhou Qinghua on the other end of the phone obviously took a deep breath, and then said in a slightly low voice: "Professor Wang, the bonus set by the program team is already very high. Moreover, the final farewell performance is also a good one for you and all other contestants. Opportunity. This World Championship was very successful, beyond all our imaginations. The attention and ratings are the highest in the past thirty years. The final farewell performance will definitely attract a large number of fans to watch and pay attention. Exposure for all”
"If you miss the stage of the World Championships, you may never find a stage of this level again in your lifetime."
Obviously, even though Zhou Qinghua is the most supportive of Wang Qian, he still feels that Wang Qian is a bit too much, and the program team cannot agree to it.
The current bonus is a cut off for many copyright holders of the program team.
Each copyright owner has lost tens of millions of dollars!
My heart aches just thinking about it
No more.
After hearing Zhou Qinghua's words, Wang Qian turned over, put his face on Qin Xuerong's legs, found a comfortable position and rubbed it, and said nonchalantly to the phone: "Forget it, I still want to Take a rest early. Give this stage opportunity to others. If nothing happens, then I will die."
Zhou Qinghua was silent for a few seconds, and then said: "Okay, I will convey your words to the program team, and I will discuss it with you when there is a result."
Wang Qian said directly: "Director Zhou, if you refuse, then don't discuss it with me. When the finals are over, we will part ways."
Zhou Qinghua said hurriedly: "Professor Wang, I am just a messenger, and I will definitely support you."
Zhou Qinghua did not dare to have a conflict with Wang Qian.
At present, he still needs to rely on Wang Qian to win the championship. This is absolutely unacceptable. This is related to billions of dollars in revenue. The company's big boss and several other rich second-generation shareholders call every day to inquire. They all told Wang Qian to take good care of him. If he lost the championship, Zhou Qinghua might have to swim back to China.
Moreover, Wang Qian is now at the height of his popularity in the domestic entertainment industry.
As long as Zhou Qinghua still wants to join the entertainment industry in the future, he will never dare to offend Wang Qian
Wang Qian also smiled and said: "Don't think too much, Director Zhou. We are fellow villagers. I know you will definitely support me. Thank you, Director Zhou. Actually, it would be better if the program team refused. To be honest, I I really don’t want to attend any more reunion performances. It’s not interesting. Why don’t you go home and rest early?”
Zhou Qinghua could tell that Wang Qian was speaking from his heart.
It is a stage that many big-name star singers in other European and American entertainment circles want to get on, but for Wang Qian, it is not indispensable. If it is gone, it will be gone!
He's done enough here.
There are too many things waiting for him to deal with in the country
If he could go back early, then of course he would be willing to go back early.
But
If the program team is willing to spend money, let him perform one more show.
As long as the price is in place, he is willing to cooperate.
Anyway, they are all making money in the circle. As long as it is legal and can earn money standing up, Wang Qian doesn't mind.
Zhou Qinghua smiled and said: "Professor Wang is very generous, so I won't disturb Professor Wang and you can rest. Goodbye, Professor Wang."
Wang Qian: "Goodbye, Director Zhou"
Hung up the phone.
Wang Qian casually threw the phone on the sofa, turned around and hugged Qin Xuerong's waist, then closed his eyes and wanted to sleep. He smelled the smell of Qin Xuerong's body and felt very comfortable.
Qin Xuerong also rubbed Wang Qian's hair quietly, his eyes full of inextricable tenderness, and he showed an extremely satisfied smile.
——It would be great if I could continue to live like this for the rest of my life.
Qin Xuerong thought extravagantly.
The other side.
Zhou Qinghua quickly passed the news to the World Championship program team.
As it should be
After hearing the news, several major copyright holders and persons in charge of the program were furious.
"Shet, who does he think he is? Why should he open his mouth to us lions?"
"God, does he think we are the Federal Reserve? Print as much as we want?"
"He's too greedy."
"If you reject him, we will terminate our cooperation with him the moment the finals are over, and we will not let him appear on any page of our program again."
"Zhou, are all you Chinese people so pushy?"
"Wang Qian, he takes himself too seriously. I really want to ban him right now."
"How about we make a move and let Sophie win the championship, let Wang Qian become the loser, and let him know the consequences of fighting our program team."
"Sophie is Wang Qian's fan!"
"Don't lose your mind, guys! We can't let our program lose reputation because of Wang Qian, it will be bad for our future development!"
After an angry curse, everyone gradually calmed down.
The person in charge, Oni, looked serious and analyzed carefully: "Everyone, for two more bonus points, we estimate that we will pay about 160 million US dollars more! But if Wang Qian does not participate in the final performance, then For our entire program, it is incomplete and will affect our subsequent word-of-mouth publicity, which is a long-term loss."
"The short-term issue is tickets! Without Wang Qian's participation, our ticket revenue will be reduced by 70%, and on-site sponsorship revenue will also be reduced by more than 50%, with a loss of at least one billion US dollars. Above."
Everyone calmed down. Listening to these numbers, a hint of emotion appeared on their faces again!
Although you give some away, you can get back more.
In terms of trading, this is a hugely profitable deal!
If you pay one to two hundred million US dollars, you can earn back one billion US dollars!
And it can be cashed out in a short time.
Is there any more profitable business in the world than this?
I’m afraid those Wall Street vampires will rush over like crazy after hearing this, trying to get involved
But
When they thought that they were being manipulated by a player in this way, they kept raising conditions
They still had to agree.
Many copyright holders who are at the top of the food chain in their respective countries’ entertainment circles still feel uncomfortable.
Oni continued: "This is just the number on the ticket. And with Wang Qian, our ratings may exceed 30%. Without Wang Qian, we can reach up to 10%. By around 20, the profit gap can reach over one billion dollars!”
Another billion dollar gap!
Excluding the half of the champion, the remaining nine copyright owners will each receive more than 50 million US dollars
This is all money!
The conference room gradually became quiet.
Everyone looked at each other.
They all saw the compromise in other people's eyes.
However, there was still a stubborn expression on his face.
The thought of them losing to Wang Qian again.
They felt uncomfortable.
Only Zhou Qinghua was relieved and could go and claim credit from Wang Qian again.
Oni finally said: "So, how do you decide? Do you agree or reject? We vote by a show of hands, and each copyright owner has one vote. If you agree, show your hands."
The words just fell.
There was no movement in the office, everyone still looked around, and no one seemed to want to raise their hands.
Zhou Qinghua wanted to raise his hand, but seeing that everyone seemed to be paying attention to him, he hesitated and waited for others to raise their hands before he immediately followed.
But
More than ten seconds passed.
No one raised their hands.
The thought of admitting defeat to a player again.
The copyright owner’s representatives were still uncomfortable and were waiting for others to take the lead in raising their hands, so they walked down the **** and raised their hands together, but no one wanted to be the first to take the lead.
Oni said calmly: "Is that rejection? We will lose one billion to two billion US dollars in profits! Just for a little personal emotion, we have to lose so much? Moreover, the most we can do is cooperate with him again It’s just two performances, and we may never see them again.”
Now!
No one can remain calm anymore.
With so many interests, no one can ignore them.
Zhou Qinghua didn’t care anymore and raised his hand directly: "I think we should not care about personal feelings and focus on the overall situation. What is the purpose of our cooperation? It is for the US dollar. Don’t be at odds with the US dollar."
Zhou Qinghua’s words gave everyone a step down.
Everyone else followed suit and raised their hands.
Even the North American copyright representative, who had always disliked Wang Qian, and the French copyright representative from Sophie’s region, raised their hands in agreement.
They said again——
They did not choose to support Wang Qian.
Instead, USD was chosen.
They are not the copyright holder, just a representative. If they lose such a large amount of profits due to their personal emotions at this time, they may not dare to return to the country.
The program team immediately asked Zhou Qinghua to continue to keep in contact with Wang Qian and tell Wang Qian the news.
At the same time, the program team also began to publicize the news to the outside world, using this news to promote the finals and the final farewell performance!
Raise the bonus again!
And the final farewell performance.
As soon as the two pieces of news were released, they shocked the world again.
Of course, most people are not surprised by the final farewell performance.
What they wonder is, why should the bonus be increased again?
The Los Angeles Times directly asked this question: Does the program team of The Voice World Championship dislike themselves for making too much money, so do they want to give some to the contestants? Why do you keep increasing the bonus?
The Hollywood Times even said directly: The program team just sent money to Wang Qian again, and the amount of money was increased time and time again. This is simply crazy.
Many media, commentators, and celebrities in the European and American entertainment circles were shocked when they heard the news and saw the rough data calculated by some media.
There was no bonus, but a championship bonus of US$100 million was directly added.
If the total box office is raised to 5%, it will already be about 300 to 400 million U.S. dollars.
Isn’t this enough?
How about increasing the box office revenue to 7%?
Many entertainment media, as well as big names in the European and American entertainment circles, were immediately upset!
The prize money was directly increased to almost five to six billion US dollars.
Look again at Wang Qian’s sales figures on the list
All the media, as well as commentators and big-name celebrities in the entertainment industry, can no longer calm down.
"Why do we have to keep sending money to Wang Qian? Why do the program crew have to be so humble? When will our contestants stand up in front of a Chinese singer?"
"Angry!"
"Shake!"
"Cold"
