Speaking of "Youth With You 2", what kind of scenes come to your mind?
From the "little artist" Yu Shuxin's wow~, to Bingqing Yujie's group membership and being found guilty of cheating and withdrawing from the competition, to Qin Niu Zhengwei's poem recital, to Li Xining 's "light yellow long skirt" successfully broke out of the circle.
"Youth With You 2", which has been airing for almost 2 months, is frequently searched and ranks first among variety shows.
However, the audience complained about it from the moment it aired. As it went on, the show became more and more self-defeating, using its flaws as a selling point, and a girl group member selection competition was abruptly transformed into an annual melon-eating drama.
After that, news was released that Li Xining not only appeared on "Happy Camp", but also was praised for her magazine shoots. This overtaking in a corner caused many netizens to discuss:
From "Produce 101" to "Youth with You 2", about the girl group The discussion of "strength is not important, positioning is the most important" in the draft has aroused heated discussion.
Are all Chinese drafts like this?
Don’t rush to conclusions, we might as well review the 36-year history of China’s live talent show .
The following are mainly divided into about 10 years, represented by the most influential and well-known talent show variety shows in each period.
The first stage: 1984-2000
CCTV Young Singer Television Grand Prix
Founded in 1984, the CCTV Young Singer Television Grand Prix, referred to as " Youth Singing Competition ", is the first authoritative national-level television vocal competition.
In the second session, three singing styles, Bel Canto, National and Popular, were set up for competition and live broadcast. Later, various competition system reforms were carried out.
Many people must have heard of the "Young Song Competition", and the contestants are even more awesome than the last one.
national first-class actor Wei Wei , singer Mao Amin .
There are also Fu Disheng who sang "Intimate Lover", Mao Ning who sang "The Sound of the Waves Are Still", and Man Wenjun who sang "Understanding You".
Until now, Cai Guoqing, Tan Jing, Sa Dingding , Yao Beina , Wang Xi ...
are all capable, and the players can be called leaders in the music industry.
However, due to the strong professionalism of the program and the relatively simple format, it fell silent due to the competition from talent shows in the future.
Until now, many people are still looking forward to the return of the "national team."
Before the 21st century, it was the initial stage of domestic variety shows. There were few types of talent show and variety shows, and one company dominated.
2. The second stage: 2001-2010
" Super Girl " & " Happy Boy "
Speaking of the post-millennium talent show, the program "Super Girl" will immediately pop up in many people's minds.
In fact, this program was launched by Hunan Satellite TV . It is known as a "large-scale music talent show without barriers". The first one in 2003 was actually " Super Boy ". "Super Boy" held two sessions but did not create much splash. Instead, it was "Super Boy" in 2004. "Female Voice" is even more popular.
The champion that year was An Youqi , the runner-up was Wang Ti, and the third runner-up was Zhang Hanyun who sang "Sour and Sweet is Me"
I would say that the first two years were the gestation period. , then the second "Super Girl" held in 2005 was a sensational success.
The appearance of the shaggy boyish Li Yuchun was like a thunder on the ground. She even won the championship in the United States. "Times Magazine" cover.
And the first runner-up Zhou Bichang, the second runner-up Zhang Liangying, "Corn", "Biqin" and "Jiangfen" formed the first generation of fans. They are called by many people:
The most classic, most memorable and most representative one. .
However, after its popularity, the "neutral style" dominated the screen in 2006, with the champion Shang Wenjie , the runner-up Tan Weiwei , and the third runner-up Liu Liyang .
Although the top two players are both active now, at that time, the overall attention of the competition was not as good as every session.
It is worth mentioning that the renamed "Happy Girls" has been held for two more years. In 2009, there were Zeng Yike, Yu Kewei, Liu Xijun, Li Xiaoyun and other contestants, which can be regarded as the "second spring" of the competition.
But the good times did not last long. The top three Duan Lin Xi, Hong Chen, Liu Xin and others in the 2011 session can be regarded as players who have not made it out of the circle.
On the other side, the renamed "Happy Boys" has been reborn, Chen Chusheng , Su Xing, Wei Chen , Zhang Jie ... The top ten in 2007 have basically gained greater popularity.
However, the "Fast Man" who came a step later did not escape the fate of "one session is worse than the other" in the end. From then on, perhaps only the 2013 champion Hua Chenyu became the biggest surprise.
《Come on! "Good Man"
If the above examples are all music talent shows, then the 2006 "Come on!" "Good Man" pays more attention to the all-round quality of the players. The purpose of the
program is to select charming men with both ability and political integrity to create a new generation of youth images, and conduct assessments and competitions in terms of singing, acting, wit, and popularity. The
program was mainly broadcast for two seasons, and the contestants of these two seasons gained considerable popularity.
The 2006 champion Pubajia , the third runner-up Wu Jianfei were the most popular at that time, so do you still remember who ranked sixth this time?
He is the Ma Tianyu who is good at acting and singing and is still active on the silver screen!
His popularity was relatively average at the time, but 14 years later, he has become the most vital person in the same session.
Then the 2007 class became even more powerful. Four popular kings were selected that year, and they were known as the "Four Young Masters of ".
They are Jing Boran, Qiao Renliang, Fu Xinbo , and Li Yifeng .
Is the BOBO group composed of Jing Boran and Fu Xinbo the idols of many girls in their youth?
After releasing two albums, the BOBO group, which had been established for five years, disbanded in 2012, and Jing Boran turned his focus to film and television.
He has starred in well-known movies such as "Monster Hunt", "The Next Us" and "A Cloud Made of Rain in the Wind", and his acting skills have been constantly honed.
And Li Yifeng, whether in the TV series "Gu Jian Qi Tan", " Sparrow ", "Qing Yun Zhi", or in the movies " Psychological Crime " and "Animal World", has been dubbed the "national school boy" by netizens, and his popularity is quite high.
Finally, I once again mourn Qiao Renliang who left us too early. I can only sigh with so much regret.
The first ten years of the millennium belong to the development and pioneering period of domestic talent shows. In addition to the above two representative variety shows, the singing "My Style My Show" and " China's Talent Show " are also Launched in 2010.
The third stage: 2011-2020
" Good Voice of China "
"The Voice of China" which bought the copyright of "Voice of the Netherlands" in 2012 was born, Yang Kun , Na Ying , Liu Huan Four veteran singers, and Yu Chengqing, are in charge, starting the "swivel chair" selection mode.
Everyone is curious about this draft method. The ratings have repeatedly exceeded 4% for more than two months of broadcasting, and even reached 6.1% in the finals. It can be said to be one of the strongest variety shows in 2012.
This year's top four, Liang Bo, Wu Mochou, Jike Junyi, and Jin Zhiwen, were everywhere with their singing and presence.
"Wu Mochou's poster made children cry" was in the news, "32 nationwide concert tours" were enough to brainwash people, "What are your dreams" became a buzzword, and the "China's good story" about the competition for selling misery became a joke.
In addition, Hua Shao 's quick talk even set off a wave of host competitions. The degree of brainwashing by the sponsor's father's oral broadcast is unparalleled.
However, after that, no matter whether the mentors were changed to Wang Feng, Jay Chou, Li Jian, or Li Ronghao , Wang Leehom , they still could not save the show's bleak ratings from one season to the next.
Take the latest 2019 program as an example. The highest ratings of CSM59 City Network were 2.4% in the second episode, and the majority of the ratings were around 1%.
Speaking of "The Voice of China" now, apart from the first edition, can you think of any singers who impressed you deeply?
Many people may have never heard of the top four Xing Hanming , Stein Manchu, Li Zhiting , and Chen Qinan in 2019, and the most popular one may only be the 2014 champion Zhang Bichen .
"Produce 101"
"Produce 101", which bought the copyright of the Korean idol group's talent show variety show "Produce 101", has dominated the screen for several months since its launch in 2018.
In fact, it is not the first idol group talent show in China. Previously, there were "King of Pop" and " Burning Boy " in 2015, "Come on Pretty Girl", " Summer Sweetheart " and "Born to Be Excellent" in 2016. Idol group development programs such as "Me" have begun to take shape, and 2018's "Produce 101" is undoubtedly the first peak of girl group talent shows.
program has Huang Zitao as the founder of the girl group, Zhang Jie and Chen Jiahua as vocal instructors, Hu Yanbin as singing instructor, and Luo Zhixiang and Wang Yibo as dance instructors.
gathered 101 contestants, and through tasks, training, and assessments, they allowed the contestants to grow under the training of star mentors, and finally selected 11 contestants to form a new idol group to debut.
For a country where idol groups are scarce, this program once again refreshed the audience.
uses a cycle of popularity voting and temporary elimination processes while showing the natural interactions and daily life of the contestants. Watching the idol grow step by step, the audience can also pick the idol to contribute to her promotion.
For example, "Koi" Yang Chaoyue , every promotion brings huge controversy, and the focus of the controversy is that her professional ability and ranking are not matched enough.
In any case, she has participated in many variety shows and many film and television productions, and has become the most out-of-the-box contestant in this show.
On the other hand, " Rocket Girls 101", which is composed of Meng Meiqi , Wu Xuanyi , Yang Chaoyue, Duan Aojuan , etc., has been established for nearly two years. Except for the song " Calories ", there are only a few representative works. Basically in a solo state.
After "Produce 101", idol group talent shows have experienced a blowout, such as "The Best of Us", "Next Stop Legend", " Youth with You Season 1 ", " Produce Camp 2019", etc., and whether the boy group is Neither UNINE nor R1SE could reproduce the glory of 101.
It is worth mentioning the men's team NINE PERCENT. The team's development is similar to that of "Rocket Girls 101", and the captain and C-position Cai Xukun is also like the "male version" Yang Chaoyue in some respects. Both personal development is far greater than that of the group.
Let’s talk about “Youth with You 2”, which was launched in March 2020. From “Yu Shuxin” to “Bingqing Yujie competing for the c position” to “Light yellow dress”, a series of negative news has attracted attention. The idol group talent show ushered in its second climax.
But it’s not over yet. " Creation Camp 2020" will be broadcast again in May. Due to its strong professionalism, the first episode of the program was called by netizens:
This is to turn the next door "Youth With You 2" into seconds. Scumbag?
Through the above five representative reality talent shows, we can see that the form and characteristics of programs have undergone tremendous changes in the past 36 years.
In the first period, selection by judges and promotion at different levels were the main focus. judges play an important role in deciding whether players should stay or stay, and the audience affects the ranking of players to a certain extent.
In the second period, the team will mentor the team and lead the PK model. players choose their own mentors and compete according to the mentor's formation. The mentor's business ability and decision-making affect the outcome of the contestants.Many times, the instructor is more eye-catching than the players. In the third period of
, the form of mentor rating and national producer was adopted. The instructor only trains and rates the players during the competition and does not decide whether the players should stay or leave. The real choice is left in the hands of the audience.
In general, through the development of these three periods, the players have changed, gradually turning from amateurs to professionals such as trainees, while the judges have become mentors, the decision-making power has gradually weakened, and the power of the audience has strengthened step by step.
In fact, from the above summary, we can also find that the rise and fall patterns of a variety show are similar. From the perspective of the overall environment, on the one hand, talent shows are not allowed to be broadcast on TV and are instead broadcast online, which reduces the audience.
Take " The Voice of China 2019" as an example. Although the ratings hit a new low, judging from the variety show ratings of the same period on CSM59 City Network, each of the 15 episodes ranked first. The decline in the program's influence is mainly due to watching TV. The total number of people in variety shows has decreased.
On the other hand, various variety shows emerge in endlessly, and the situation of one company no longer disappears. The audience is stratified and further refined vertically.
Let's take music programs as an example. There are "China Has Hip Hop" which focuses on rap, "Summer of the Band" which showcases bands, and "China's Good Songs" which focuses on original songs...
From an internal reason , Audience tastes are also constantly changing, and a program always changes from novelty to aesthetic fatigue. Therefore, the operation of "Youth With You 2" to promote negative news is easy to understand -
If it followed the old form, would you still be interested in watching it?
The most representative one is Yu Shuxin. From the beginning of her work, public opinion has changed. Many people have said that she is "really fragrant" and they want to attract attention first and then get to know her better.
Of course, eyeballs have been attracted, and the quality of the program is the key to retaining the audience. Whether "Youth With You 2", which is regarded as a drama, can go far depends on the strength of the contestants.
However, due to the intervention of capital, the commercial value brought by the popularity and traffic of the program when it is broadcast is the goal of capital. Many idol groups have become tools for many companies to make quick money and cannot achieve long-term development.
Coupled with the imperfect training mechanism of domestic idol groups, many groups have become "half-way artists" who "reach their peak after their debut."
Faced with the second half of "Youth With You 2", the high-profile opening of "Creation Camp 2020", and the upcoming men's team audition "The Name of the Boy"...
The intensive audition has made the audience want to change channels. , fans here have not yet been cultivated, but fans there have already moved on, and all major companies want a piece of the pie.
Behind the seemingly lively talent show, there is actually a crisis.
But then again, only with competition can we make progress.
Japan’s mature idol group training mechanism and South Korea’s devil training and extremely high elimination rate model are at the forefront. China’s road to building a domestic mature idol group -
is still on its way.
