Arriving in a parallel world where idols are in decline,
With no connections, no resources, and not much capital,
Want to open an entertainment company and create idol stars?
It a...
"Hello everyone, welcome to 'Flower Charm,' a new female singing variety show endorsed by Manzi, the world's top skincare brand. I'm your host, Wan Sha."
"When you think of women, what comes to mind? Maybe you think of your daughter, your wife, your mother."
"Or maybe you could think of professions like teacher, nurse, flight attendant, shopping guide, secretary, etc."
"Many people compare women to flowers, believing that women are as delicate, gentle and beautiful as flowers."
"But in reality, nature has all sorts of flowers. There are the petite and dainty peach blossoms, the magnificent peonies, the cool and proud plum blossoms, the gorgeous yet thorny roses, and even... the man-eating plants of the tropical jungle!"
Ruan Yun, a full-time housewife from a well-off family who has not gone out to work since her marriage, was sitting in front of the TV at this time. When she heard Wan Sha talk about the carnivorous plant and make gestures of eating people, she couldn't help laughing out loud.
Ruan Yun is a typical example of many stay-at-home wives: a nanny takes care of most of the housework, her children are away at school, and her husband is often away from home due to his busy business.
The hobby I use most to pass the time is to go shopping and play cards with a few friends. When I get home, I sit on the sofa alone and watch TV series to pass the time.
Ruan Yun's life was something many of her former friends envied. Although she didn't have much to worry about, she always felt she wasn't as happy as they imagined, and her life was truly dull.
However, two years ago her life began to change.
My daughter, who was studying away from home, came home for summer vacation and brought back a bunch of posters, discs, photos, and various knickknacks. She said she'd fallen in love with the hottest idol group and wanted to put their pictures and posters up in her room.
Their daughter was quite well-behaved, and her final report card showed no signs of declining grades. Her family was financially comfortable and willing to give her pocket money. Ruan Yun and her husband simply turned a blind eye to their daughter's behavior, reminding her not to let it interfere with her studies.
However, my daughter always tells me how good these members are, how outstanding, cute, charming, and handsome they are...
Ruan Yun, who had never been a fan of celebrities before, was a little confused. She didn't understand how boys could be both cute and handsome. She looked at the posters in her daughter's room and saw the characters looked good, but she didn't understand why her daughter liked them so much.
With her daughter finally home for summer vacation, Ruan Yun naturally wanted to spend all her time with her. She stopped going out shopping and playing cards, and instead prioritized watching TV dramas and variety shows to suit her daughter's preferences.
In order to have more common language with her daughter, Ruan Yun also began to learn about the group called Moonlight Boys.
Listening to their songs and watching their videos with her daughter, Ruan Yun gradually became able to clearly call out the name and personality of each member, and even recognize who sang a certain line of lyrics when listening to a song.
Thanks to their shared hobbies, Chenggong and his daughter became much closer during one summer vacation.
Ruan Yun also watched and figured out something. Chasing stars is indeed a bit addictive.
Looking at these boys, from their hoarse voices, soft movements and restrained expressions at the beginning, they have made obvious progress in strength through training and persistence bit by bit every day.
In the beginning, there were only a few or dozens of people watching their videos, and no one knew them when they performed outdoors. Later, they began to have hundreds of thousands or even millions of fans.
The variety shows they recorded made them famous and made them better known to the public. After going through a staff reduction crisis, they finally made their official debut, released their own new album, and even became the most popular idol boy group today.
Ruan Yun felt more and more fascinated the more she watched, and she felt that the sense of accomplishment was even greater than raising her own daughter. After her daughter started school, she spent most of her time at school. In middle school and high school, she lived on campus and also attended tutoring classes.
Ruan Yun often felt a little dazed. How could her daughter grow up so quickly?
This time, following her daughter's star-chasing Moonlight Youth Group opened up a new world for her. Although she was only watching the old videos from the perspective of an audience, she felt an inexplicable strong sense of participation.
During the next winter vacation, the daughter came back and found that her mother had reviewed all the "homework" before the group, and was no longer inferior to her!
Because she wanted to know more about the group, Ruan Yun also took the unprecedented step of learning how to use various social software and websites on the computer.
I also became a fan of Yuexiang Entertainment because of the Moonlight Boys group.
This company is really amazing!
What's more, tonight's show is not just for fans of Yuexiang Entertainment or Mysterious Girl who are waiting in front of their TVs and computers in advance.
Ever since the guest list was revealed, everyone who goes online or cares about the entertainment industry and singers has been shocked!
Such a lineup is really too powerful, it is completely unprecedented!
There is actually a program that invited Wen Yin, the former queen of love songs who has not appeared on TV for more than ten years, and also invited You Pingyun, the dance queen who once competed with her, to perform on the same stage.
There are also the big sister singers in the music scene today, professional singers of TV drama songs, pop divas... and the most popular idol girl group Mysterious Girls.
There are two people who are not very familiar to the public, but one is a musical singer and the other is a singer who won the gold medal in a national singing competition.
With such a lineup, anyone interested in music definitely can't miss it. Even many viewers who don't usually watch variety shows or music programs are eager to go and see the world.
As a result, this program has attracted widespread attention even before it officially started airing.
When many people learned that the program would be jointly broadcast on Kangle TV, Guangming Video, and Strawberry Video, and that there were more advertisers than ever before and they were powerful, they couldn't help but wonder how much exorbitant fees and connections they had to pay to invite these people to participate in the same variety show.
However, some people are worried that Yuexiang Entertainment has never produced this kind of professional music variety show, and they don’t know whether the result will be too entertaining and prevent the guests from giving their best performances.
Many people are also worried about the mysterious girls. The lineup is really too strong. As an idol girl group that debuted for less than a year, they are really "different" among them.
Many people, even some who think they like this group, think that although Mysterious Girl is indeed the best among idol groups, it is not good to watch it among these singers. Yuexiang Entertainment is likely to fail this time.
The day for the show to be broadcast finally arrived. Ruan Yun, like many other viewers, had been waiting for the show to officially begin.
Host Wan Sha continued the program's opening remarks: "Similarly, in addition to the most common female occupations, they can also be soldiers, engineers, bus drivers, chefs, scientists... They are more than just daughters, wives, and mothers. They are themselves, not just an identity, but simply themselves."
Ruan Yun, who was originally just looking forward to seeing several female singers she liked and hadn't seen for a long time perform on stage, was stunned when she heard what the host Wan Sha said.
She sat up straighter on the sofa. Even though the singers hadn't come on stage yet, Ruan Yun inexplicably felt a greater interest and anticipation for the show.
This program invites all female singers to perform on the same stage. Is it not only to let them show good songs, but also to convey some values or messages related to women?
At this moment, many female audiences who had never seen a variety show focusing on female identity and self naturally developed some liking for this variety show and the production team before the guests officially performed on stage.
It is indeed interesting. It is just an ordinary singing music variety show, but it is quite meaningful to talk about it.
"Starting today, we hope to present eight stages featuring female singers of different ages, experiences, and personalities, showcasing the diverse charm of women."
"Do any of these eight key words, namely, innocence, loveliness, elegance, gentleness, sexiness, bravery, tenacity, and courage, appear simultaneously in any woman? And how will they bring these charms to the world through their performances?"
"Let us first welcome the first singer to perform the song that she thinks best reflects her personal charm." Wan Sha stood on the stage and spoke gracefully.
She was also deeply touched by the script given to her by the program team.
I didn't expect that Yuexiang Entertainment would produce such a variety show, bringing together representative female singers of all ages to explore and show the charm of women.
It is my honor to be able to participate in such a variety show and become the host.
After finishing this opening remark, Wan Sha, who was wearing a beige long dress, suddenly remembered that the program team suggested that her clothing and styling should be completely changed in the next episode. She was a little nervous at first, but after saying this, she felt more at ease. She could show the audience a different Wan Sha.
On this stage, not only can these guests show their feminine charm to the audience, but they themselves also have a charm that no one knows about.
At this time, the camera switched to the young singer Yu Yuan who was already preparing to go on stage in the studio. She heard the host introducing the guest and the director's prompt: You can go.
She took a deep breath, held her head high and walked confidently towards the stage. Suddenly, all the lights in the venue dimmed and a beam of light shone on her.
Just when the audience was looking forward to her singing, the camera cut back to the scene where all the guests had just entered the special waiting room.
The audience breathed a sigh of relief and then immediately relaxed, but they were also curious to see what happened behind the scenes.
First up to join the program was Yu Yuan, a rising star familiar to many young people today. Just 20 years old, she was spotted by a record company a little over a year ago after posting her own songs online. She signed a contract and debuted with her first album, "I Am Yu Yuan." Her whimsical style, playful voice, and singing style quickly catapulted her to fame.
Many people are impressed by the girl with two playful pigtails in the title song of Yuan’s first MV, who would pout in anger and laugh out loud without caring about her image.
Afterwards, she released the single "I Don't Want to Talk to You Anymore" and became popular again, becoming a new female singer whose songs became well-known shortly after her debut.
Although she appeared very bold and lively in the songs and MVs, Yu Yuan, who had never participated in any variety show recording before, inevitably panicked when she entered the studio and faced a row of cameras and photographers.
She walked stiffly to the sofa in the middle, sat down and didn't move.
Until I heard girls' voices coming from outside the door, and there was more than one.
Upon opening the door and spotting the cameras facing them, the five girls from Mysterious Girl immediately greeted them. Being on their home turf, and having already filmed a full season of variety shows, they were naturally less nervous. They quickly walked into the center of the waiting room and took the initiative to greet Yu Yuan.
Yu Yuan stood up nervously, unsure whether to greet them one by one or simply call out their group's name. All five members enthusiastically introduced themselves and shook hands.
Faced with Yu Yuan, who was of similar age and looked a little restrained, the five members quickly started a conversation with her, chatting about each other's songs and preparations, as well as their expectations for the seniors who would come after them.
The scene suddenly became lively.
After that, the Mesozoic singer Tian Jin walked in, followed by the TV drama song queen Xuan Xiaqing, Yin Li who had dealt with the mysterious girl before and even contributed to the birth of this program, and Guan Mengtao, the absolute powerful big sister in the circle, all arrived one after another.
As the people who arrived became more experienced and higher in status than the last, except for Yu Yuan who was already a little embarrassed, the singers who came on stage later also sat up straight.
The pressure on the mysterious girls was naturally huge. Aside from Yu Yuan, everyone else present was their seniors, all of whom were both capable and prestigious.
Many of them were idols they had grown up with, idols of their parents' generation, and when they thought about sharing the stage with them, the members could only try their best to control their state and emotions. They performed as generously and appropriately as ever, modestly yet confidently.
Especially when the last two queens of love songs Wen Yin and dance music queen You Pingyun walked in together, all the guests at the scene immediately stood up and applauded to welcome them.
There is no other reason, it is just that their achievements are too dazzling, and they debuted at the time that they are the seniors among the seniors. They are the symbols of an era in the music industry that everyone should respect.
All the artists for the show have assembled, and the directors have begun announcing the rules. The show will feature nine stages. The first will feature each guest performing solo, selecting a song they believe best represents their individuality. For the next eight stages, they will collaborate in pairs, focusing on eight key phrases: innocence, cuteness, elegance, gentleness, sexiness, boldness, tenacity, and courage, to select songs for their final performances.
The more Ruan Yun watched, the more interesting she found it. Several of the female singers could name their own masterpieces and clearly describe them with adjectives. However, they were inevitably constrained by stereotypes, and it was hard to imagine what they would be like when they revealed their charms beyond the public perception.
Ruan Yun likes all of these eight keywords. Women are diverse, multifaceted, and ever-changing.
Before Ruan Yun could think any more, the camera finally cut back to Yu Yuan who was already standing on the stage, and she was about to start singing.
The song Yu Yuan sang today was indeed the song that the public is most familiar with, "I Am Yu Yuan". The live performance was very good and the atmosphere of the whole scene was boosted. She was very cute and her singing skills were very good.
The next group to perform was the Mysterious Girls group. Many people expected them to expose their flaws and shortcomings, expecting them to be completely crushed by the singers. However, many also expected them to steadily display their full strength and amaze everyone.
Not only all the audience, but other guests were also looking forward to their performance.
She is young, beautiful, and can perform high-intensity dances. Facing these singers who are born to sing, can she compete with them?
As for the two oldest members, I haven't heard their songs in person yet. I'm also curious about what effect five young girls can achieve together.
But don't let them be too disappointed with this stage.
As the prelude music of their debut song "Rose Coming Through Thorns" sounded, the lights came on, and the five girls' makeup and looks were cool and cool, which surprised the seniors who were not familiar with them.
She originally thought that girls of this age would also sing cheerful and girlish songs like the first singer.
To better suit the competitive nature of variety shows, the company re-arranged the song, removing the upbeat prelude and the transitions, and instead directly capturing the audience's attention with a somewhat gloomy, low-pitched rhythm.
The five girls looked up together, and their eyes, filled with powerful aura, instantly captured the hearts of the audience.
As the captain Qi Zhi spoke in a hoarse and somewhat charming voice, the expressions of the other guests and professional music critics began to become serious.
The first sentence is steady. The voice is very distinctive, and although the emotions are a little off, there are no major flaws.
Many older audience members also had the first reaction that this little girl has a really special voice and sings well.
From the initial low humming and the desolate narration to the struggle, fear, and confusion against darkness, difficulty, and malice, to the subsequent melody and live accompaniment that push the song upwards layer by layer, anger! resistance! overthrow!
The five members' makeup, clothing, expressions, dancing, emotions, and singing styles all complemented each other closely with the emotional changes and content reflected in the song, bringing a strong infection and impact to all the audience!
In the middle and late stages, the members' powerful, extremely neat, beautiful and visually impactful group dance, as well as the extreme high notes of members Lin Leyi and Yan Yun, pushed the atmosphere to a climax.
Whether the audience was present or in front of the screen, they felt that the song they performed had been gripping their hearts from beginning to end, attracting them and making them fully devote themselves to their performance.
Until the song was finished, the audience applauded in the studio, and many people were still reluctant to leave.
I never thought that these five young girls could put on such a wonderful performance!
The five members maintained their expressions and movements at the end, controlled their breathing, then stood up, looked at each other, and then looked at Su Yin in the audience, their eyes full of excitement and enjoyment!
No matter what, they didn't make any mistakes in today's performance, and everyone did their part to the best of their ability!
They did not let down their own four or five years of extremely high-intensity daily training and extreme competition; they did not let down the members' common persistence and sharing of each other. Through long-term training and teamwork, they were able to sing every paragraph steadily despite the high physical exertion of dancing; they also did not let down the company and Sister Yin's careful preparation for this program, inviting the best teachers to carefully design the lyrics sentence by sentence, and focus on the specific changes and pronunciation of each word, and adapted their debut song into the current version.
Backstage, other female singers were also applauding them. Being able to maintain such a dance while also having a stable vocal output and good pitch control is indeed not an easy task.
Moreover, they have already successfully conquered the audience.
Well-known music critic Cui Ji, who was watching the variety show, also commented on their performance: "The song design was incredibly thoughtful, or even incredibly catchy, a performance meticulously crafted for live performance and stage competition." It's hard to fathom their singing; it can't be compared to true masters. Their breathing, articulation, and emotion were all too immature.
At this point, he paused, then continued: "However, they did bring out the best in their dancing, demeanor, and appearance, adding points to their limited singing skills and vocal quotient. For those audiences who are not particularly discerning about hearing, the visual experience made up for the lack of auditory enjoyment."
The intense dancing inevitably sacrificed the singing itself, and this was their choice. Although I could find many faults with them, I also cannot deny that this performance will definitely bring unprecedented shock to many audiences and will become a long-lasting and profound memory for many people.
I will end with this: All other idol groups or those who call themselves singers must at least reach this level before they can say that their performances are worth presenting to the audience, rather than being garbage.
The mysterious girl walked off the stage amidst the warm applause and cheers of the audience, and as soon as she came off the stage, she saw Su Yin who had been waiting for them there.
The five girls immediately rushed forward and hugged Su Yin together, chattering wildly about their feelings: "Sister Yin! We did it!"
"It was so cool, I almost couldn't control myself on stage."
"Wow, I want to cry."
Seeing Su Yin being held tightly by several hands, with several heads pressed against her body, unable to move, the members couldn't help but laugh again and surrounded her to a place backstage where they couldn't see the audience.
Su Yin had nothing to complain about their performance tonight. Joy, relief, pride, emotion and pride were all lingering in her heart.
"You are my pride!" Faced with Su Yin's sudden words, the five members were stunned. Qi Zhi, Fu Ning, and Yan Yun's eyes even turned red on the spot, and they quickly pretended to be giggling and flirting with Su Yin.
It’s great that all the previous suffering, difficulties, confusion, pain and torment have disappeared tonight.
They won everything they wanted through their own efforts. Is there anything more exciting than this?
At the same time, all the fans of Mysterious Girl were also caught in a sea of crazy emotions tonight.
They are really amazing! So dazzling!
Even though every senior female singer who came on stage later gave an extremely good performance, some of them even sang classics with such high quality that many of their fans couldn't sleep tonight.
No one can ignore the performance of the mysterious girls tonight, and no one can ignore the wave of style brought about by them.
In the first episode, all the female singers presented a wonderful feast of songs for everyone.
This also made this variety show gain extremely high reputation and evaluation in the first episode!
This is a show that everyone gives their all and treats with great care.
It is a program that truly respects singers, audiences and the stage.
It is a program that aims to delve into the different qualities and beauty of women.
Yuexiang Entertainment's new variety show has once again become the focus of the nation, topping all the ratings and clicks, becoming the most discussed topic of the moment.
The audience is also looking forward to the guest performances. Will there be a clash of playful and sweet songs? A competition between dance music and lyrical music? A collaboration between those in their twenties and those in their fifties? How will they interpret the keywords that have subverted their previous images?
After receiving various feedback data and congratulations from various platforms and brands, Su Yin, who returned home in the middle of the night, was in a good mood. She will pay close attention to all the subsequent programs to ensure their quality.
This will be another milestone program for enjoyable entertainment.
After breathing a sigh of relief, Su Yin suddenly remembered the neighbor next door while washing up.
I'm not sure whether the other party has any relationship with the creator. I'll try to find out when I have some free time.
The most important thing right now is to do the show well.
