Chapter 408 Xia Hua's Morning
The second phase of Tomorrow Culture Company is under construction, with two multimedia buildings that include studios, recording studios, practice rooms and other functions, as well as two employee apartment buildings.
Although the second phase of the project will not be completed until next year, the company's ten-story office building has already vacated three floors for this large-scale variety reality show "Star of Tomorrow", which will be converted into student dormitories, practice rooms, recording studios, broadcast studios, restaurants, rest and entertainment areas, etc.
Five hundred people were quite a large group, and they came from all over Xiahua country by train or long-distance bus. Because of the strict age restrictions, junior high school education and above, and three rounds of cruel special skills screening, these people all had more or less literary and artistic atmosphere, and each of them stood out from the crowd.
It just so happened that Longteng TV had reserved two channels for An Zhixia, so she asked the cameraman to start the live broadcast from the day of registration so as not to waste any screen resources.
Each contestant who entered the preliminary round put on his or her neatest and cleanest clothes, carried a bag of bedding in one hand and clothes, food and daily necessities in the other. They stood in front of the ten-story office building, looked up at the six big golden characters "Tomorrow Culture Company" with flying dragons and phoenixes, and felt nervousness, excitement, yearning and determination in their hearts.
They looked at their fellow travelers, smiled kindly, and strode towards the glass door.
The company's reception hall occupies a quarter of a floor, with clean glass windows on three sides, making it exceptionally spacious and bright. The floor is paved with large milky white tiles, and the rest area is furnished with rattan tables and chairs of the same color, as well as two sets of large and soft leather sofas.
Next to the three windows is a long wooden platform where people can rest.
A row of colorful long-handled umbrellas are hung in the central area, with a simple sign that reads "Umbrella Borrowing Notice". Next to it is a three-story solid wooden bookshelf, which contains many domestic and foreign fashion, entertainment, literature and art magazines for everyone to enjoy.
Behind the reception desk stood six young women in red work clothes. They were tall, well-proportioned, and wore light makeup. They were like the most dazzling scenery in the entire reception hall.
They smiled softly and greeted the people who came in in standard Kyoto dialect: "Hello, are you here to report for the 'Star of Tomorrow' selection? Please line up here to register."
Those who can still stand out from hundreds of thousands of people with their specialties at the age of sixteen or later, except for a few who are naturally gifted, are mostly those whose parents have given them enough investment since childhood. Therefore, most of them have good family conditions, at least they must be dual-income families, or their parents have some power or their families have some background.
But they were a little hesitant when they got here, after all, it was too bright and beautiful, making them look like country bumpkins who had never met before. Moreover, there were two black cameras moving around, and some people were at a loss for words.
An Zhixia was wearing black pencil pants, a white shirt with a casual vest on top, and two centipede braids. Her delicate and pretty face was covered by a beige beret, revealing only her porcelain white chin and rosy lips, revealing her owner's beauty.
She stood next to one of the cameramen, looking at these young and handsome students. She was less than eighteen years old when she came to this era, but now she is already a mother of five children and is twenty-six years old, not much different from before her rebirth.
She couldn't help but feel a little envious, and even more so, she lamented that time was too cruel. Eight years had passed in the blink of an eye!
"Teacher Xiao An," Ban Lei walked in quickly from outside, approached her and whispered with gritted teeth, "Xiahua Culture Company is also broadcasting live coverage of 'Xiahua Morning' on the new channel of Kyoto TV! It's only two hours later than us."
When this was mentioned, all the employees of Longteng TV and Mingri Culture Company were furious. The people from Kyoto TV were following them closely, and whenever there was a new move, they would immediately follow suit.
When An Zhixia submitted an application to establish Tomorrow Culture Company, Deputy Director Huang Ziqian got wind of it and immediately applied with Director Bai to start Xiahua Culture Company. They used the TV station's advertising revenue to build a 30-story office building not far from Tomorrow Culture Company.
Compared with An Zhixia in all aspects, it is really superior.
While Longteng TV was advertising and promoting "Stars of Tomorrow", Kyoto TV, together with the top ten city TV stations, was frantically promoting "Xia Hua Morning", attracting most of the talented and good-looking contestants.
That is to say, because Xiahua has a large population base, Tomorrow Culture Company still went through rigorous screening and obtained these 500 outstanding candidates.
"Everyone probably thinks we plagiarized them again," Ban Lei said with a gloomy face.
An Zhixia chuckled and said, "This is just the beginning. Since they dare to accept the live broadcast, their adaptability must keep up. Even if their students are stronger than ours at the beginning, after three months of competition and training, it is not certain who will win or lose."
She has been preparing for this reality show for two years, and has made extremely detailed plans from the organizational form, training model, training content, selection method, etc.
And all these things are kept in her supermarket, and no one can see them. If anyone wants to plagiarize them, or want to be better than Tomorrow Culture Company, it is unlikely to be possible with the abilities of the core staff of Kyoto TV Station who have only received two months of training from her and stayed there.
They have long since spent all their capital and are accustomed to plagiarizing others for free, so most of them have become ordinary people.
Ban Lei was stunned for a moment, and then he slammed his fist on his palm. "Yes, they are just imitating our live broadcast content. For example, today's recording of the report content is not outstanding and it is easy to do it. But in the future, when our content becomes more difficult, it will be easy to leave them far behind!"
Thinking of this, he smiled and said, "We have to vent our anger this time."
The rumbling sound of a motorcycle came from far away and then suddenly braked in the parking lot in front of the company. A woman in a black leather jacket and leather pants took off her helmet, and her flaxen wavy hair fell down. The woman had beautiful eyebrows and eyes, and the bright lips made her skin like jade.
"It's the host Fang Hongye!" The reporting student turned around and talked in a low voice with excitement.
"She is so beautiful and she dresses fashionably like a celebrity in Hong Kong. She is from a completely different world from us!"
"I don't ask for much. I'd be fine if I could stay and work as a waiter at Tomorrow Culture Company. My colleagues are celebrities that I see on TV every day. I'd be so proud of myself if I could talk about it to others!"
"We have to be ambitious. We have to stand out from all the people and enter the preliminary round. Then we can go to the headquarters of Tomorrow Culture Company for training and participate in the selection. Then we may become the second Fang Hongye!"
Fang Hongye had a faint smile on her lips, and her eyes looked at someone very tenderly. She smiled, nodded, and waved at everyone along the way, and walked very quickly with her long legs to An Zhixia, slightly panting.
"The little one is too noisy," she complained helplessly and happily, "This is not a little cotton-padded jacket at all, it's even harder to take care of than her three brothers. I think it's a cotton-padded jacket with air leaking out."
In four years, she became pregnant twice. Three years ago, she gave birth to a pair of boys. A year ago, she finally gave birth to the little baby that An Zhiqiu had been longing for.
Fang Hongye was also restless. As soon as her child stopped breastfeeding, she returned to the TV station to host a show with An Zhiqiu. She was An Zhixia's first student in this alien world. She was good-looking, and the couple's partnership was natural. The screen was full of pink bubbles, and she quickly attracted a wave of fans and became one of the most popular hosts in Xiahua Country.
An Zhixia smiled and said, "Children are all very smart. She is the youngest in the family, so doesn't she have to be a little spoiled?"
She handed over the microphone in her hand, "Xia Huazhichen is also on the live broadcast, sister-in-law, use your full aura to crush her back!"
Fang Hongye nodded vigorously, took a deep breath, and calmed down for two minutes. Then she nodded to the cameraman beside her and said softly, "Master Liu, I'm ready."
She chose an angle that could capture the five long lines behind her, coughed lightly, and when the camera turned around, she smiled, revealing her white teeth, "Good morning, everyone. I am Fang Hongye, the host of Tomorrow Culture Company. I am very happy to witness the birth of our 'Star of Tomorrow' with the audience.
'Star of Tomorrow' is sponsored and broadcasted by Xiayuan Transport Group, Jinxiu Real Estate Company, Huida Supermarket, Lvyuan Breeding Base, and Jiang's Electrical Appliance Company!
It has been two months since our "Tomorrow's Star" was launched and auditioned. Congratulations to the 500 outstanding contestants behind me for standing out. They will become the mainstay of our Xiahua entertainment circle and bring many excellent and wonderful works to everyone. "
Fang Hongye has been through a lot of things, and she memorized a lot of words for this variety show. After the initial excitement and novelty of a simple live broadcast, a host is needed to lead everyone to unveil the three-month show step by step.
They had to arouse the audience's interest and briefly explain the novelty of the program, while also striking a balance so as not to leak key information to Xiahua Culture Company.
She talked for an hour or two. As the organizer, she naturally had a lot to say.
In comparison, Xia Hua's Morning column, which lacked much preparation and simply followed other programs, seemed dry and did not attract enough attention from the audience.
Whether they were waiting to register or had already registered and were waiting, they all quietly found a place to sit down. Four staff members pushed carts between them in pairs, providing free tea service.
All contestants who bring the report notice will receive a green canvas backpack with "Star of Tomorrow" and their names printed on it. The items inside include a glass thermos cup, leather notebook, hero gold pen, embroidered handkerchief, commemorative badge and key chain printed with the column name, sponsor and corresponding contestant's name!
