The dark inside story of 2009 Happy Girls

Mango Channel's Happy Girl is actually such a trick. The competition system seems to be watertight, but in fact there is a mystery hidden inside. The scoring group composed of public judges, professional judges, and expert judges seems to represent the unanimous wishes of all walks of life. However, under the careful calculation of Mango Channel, they cleverly bypassed the fetters from the public and used the so-called "fair" To achieve their ulterior motives under the guise of "fairness, fairness and openness". What the author wants to say now is to peel off the layers of hypocrisy of Mango to restore the essence of this talent show. Of course, to understand how Mango operates behind the scenes, we must first see clearly the respective roles of the three judges in the competition. utility.

1. The four major judges influence the direction of the competition

If you think that the four judges Chunxiao, Wu Qixian, Gao Xiaosong, and Wu Zhoutong (formerly Bao Xiaobai and Hei Nan) have the power to kill the contestants. Power, then you are dead wrong. Comparing Taiwan's talent show "Super Star Avenue" and "Super Idol", we will find that the rights of these people are really pitiful, especially after entering the top ten, they have collectively lost the ability to eliminate contestants. As far as the comprehensive scoring is concerned, the four major judges can only give 12 points. Even if one or two of them refuse to give points out of conscience, the score difference between the contestants will only be 3-6 points. The points scored will not have much impact on the final score.

Of course, although the four judges as judges lack the "Sword of Shang Fang", they can still roughly determine the direction of the competition, protect the players from the danger zone, or push the players to the PK stage. They can greatest contribution. Modern Sky's Shen Lihui single-handedly defended Zeng Yike, which caused an uproar. Another judge, Wu Qixian, was also puzzling and pushed Yu Kewei to the final PK. Their choice needs to take into account the player's strength, singing performance, and audience voting psychology, as well as the overall interests of Mango Channel. This also means that Chunxiao and the other four must be "obedient" judges, and such as Bao Xiaobai, Hei Nan and others insist on personal choice, which is tantamount to trampling on the rules of the game, so they no longer use it.

The role played by the four people actually goes far beyond that. Although they only control a meager 12 points of votes in the 100-point system, their "professional comments" before raising their placards in the public review are very important. It affects the player's score to a certain extent. You must know that the audience's judgment is very limited, and professional reviews will definitely deceive them very much. Between one praise and one criticism, at least 5-10 people will be affected to change their original intentions. In addition, it is also their duty to kill the players. Wu Qixian repeatedly suppressed Yu Kewei in the fourth game of the top ten games in order to let her enter the final PK battle. Of course, this was not to ask her to leave, but to use her to squeeze her out. Let's go with Pan Chen. After all, in front of the public review of most facial-conscious people, Yu Kewei has the best chance of winning on the PK stage.

Considering their own "status in the world," the four major judges still dare not make extraordinary moves most of the time. They either comply with public opinion or hand it over to the two-vote-for-two-vote-against situation. When it comes to judging by media representatives, the significance of the difference between odd numbers and even numbers is that the four major judges are "rarely confused", but media representatives can clearly give the outcome of victory or defeat. So fundamentally speaking, although the four judges determine the direction of the competition to a large extent, they are not the core of the trial in the actual sense.

2. The media’s decision-making affects the results of the competition

Using the analogy of film editing, the role of the four major judges is only "rough cutting", while 19 companies actually have the final editing rights. Representatives of media companies and Internet companies. These talents are truly Mango Channel's ace tools for manipulating the results of games and deciding whether players should stay or stay. They sit in a corner of the stage, and among them there are many leaders, big and small, with an annual salary of hundreds of thousands of dollars. They are basically taciturn after a game. It can be seen in the competition that some representatives will be worried about conscience and moral criticism. At least a few people will have a "fierce struggle" before voting. It is difficult to decide whether to abide by the rules or comply with public opinion. But no matter what the choice is, the outcome will always be the same. In this age of showing off, there are always many more unconscionable people than honest people.

Media representatives are the most important factor in determining whether a contestant will stay or leave, because their choice is very flexible, because they each have their own shields - website search volume, ringtone download volume, and whether they are suitable for the company. Signing... It is under this protective umbrella that they can unconscionably remove players who perform better, so Liu Xijun can defeat Tan Lina who performs better, Li Yuanxi can kick away Da Chunzi, who has the best singing skills, and even The most difficult "Zeng Yike Defense Battle" and "Huang Ying Defense Battle" were finally realized in this link. The media representatives sent Zeng Yike to the top ten despite going against the will of the people, and now they will send Huang Ying to the top three amid the scorn of the people.

We must see clearly that these media people are not restricted by Internet search volume, ringtone rankings, or the company’s criteria for selecting artists. They all have the basic right to make their own decisions. When the on-site rules required them to "comply with public opinion", they all dropped the mask of online numbers and assumed a posture of safeguarding justice. They also replaced words such as "ranked according to..." with "I represent a certain person". Someone voted for...". It is precisely because these media people have such double-dealing skills that they eventually became the most important part in determining the competition. Almost all the dramatic climaxes were staged on this jury seat. The historical moment when Lian Huang Yong Yong won the electronic cover was also Thanks to the number of downloads of their ringtones.

Considering that most of the members of this jury are behind-the-scenes staff, editors, reporters, etc., the chaos in voting does not affect their status in the entertainment industry, so the bad behavior of boldly cheating and false accusations is not allowed by this group. became possible. Of course I don’t believe that everyone is so evil. At least a few of them will still stick to their choices. However, at the moment when “everyone is drunk and I am alone”, a few dry votes cannot reverse the tide.

3. Popular voting is just a formality

Obviously, after the previous two layers of screening, the remaining things are completely useless. This is Mango’s clever trick, borrowed from the scene The audience’s hands are used to perform the last step of the operation. Of course, the public reviewers are not controlled by Mango, at least most of them are. Otherwise, they will bear the serious consequences of the leakage of fraud, which is something Mango cannot even think about. So the only thing they can do is to make this popular PK battle as meaningless as possible. In order to achieve this goal, they deliberately spend three hours concocting the entire process. What they want is to push the players they want to the ultimate PK is either a confrontation between strong and weak, or two characters who give up, and the ending is already doomed.

After hosting Super Girl and Fast Boy for many times, Mango has a clear understanding of the audience’s voting. They know who wins and who loses on the PK stage. Using Pan Chen to P away Zeng Yike, using Yu Kewei to P away Pan Chen continuously, and using Jiang Yingrong to P away Lina are all carefully calculated human operations. The purpose of using these people to PK is very obvious, that is to ensure a steady victory. If Huang Ying enters the final PK, she might die miserably. Last week, Yu Kewei faced a choice between Li Xiaoyun and Liu Xijun. It was actually a semi-suicidal multiple-choice question thrown to her by Mango. Either P Li Xiaoyun left on her own, or she and Liu Xijun fought to the death. Both Yu and Liu were contestants who had given up. It doesn't matter if you win or lose.

Since Mango has already cornered the contestants who should be pushed, they can go to sleep the moment the public votes, and the face-conscious audience will generously throw their votes to the beautiful girl Pan Chen, and will not leave it to Pan Hongyue, who has better singing skills; Yu Kewei, who has good looks and obviously better singing skills, will definitely get more votes in the PK with Pan Chen; Jiang Yingrong P walks to talk about Lina This is due to the public's recognition of the former's dual advantages in singing and dancing. Therefore, the public vote is actually meaningless in the choice of players to stay or leave. It is just to verify a result of the Mango Project. But is the public's score meaningful? If there is, it only plays a mainstream role in the "cover competition", that is, the competition for the weekly championship. This means that to win the first promotion spot, the fast girl player needs more than 40 votes from the public.

Tan Lina became dissatisfied with the organizer's behind-the-scenes operations after promotion, and finally packed up and left a week later; Liu Xijun was also kicked out last week immediately after breaking the news about the insider in "I Love to Remember Lyrics". The fact is such a coincidence , the causes and consequences behind it are more or less suspect. In fact, every fast girl cannot choose to fight against the organizer. It is very difficult to make a person popular, but it is easy to discredit a person. Even if you don't discredit someone, it is a trivial matter to let you go in your small shoes.

As for the kind-hearted people across the country, they will most likely be deceived by Mango’s tricks. They will cry for every fast girl who goes away, and at the same time they will vote for Mango Channel’s competition system. Vote yes. But the despicable Mango Platform secretly played with the IQ of the people across the country, played its own tricks, achieved its own goals, and then threw a piece of meatless chicken ribs to the public to taste, while shouting loudly: : "Look how generous I am."

This is Mango Channel, this is Happy Girls, this is the highest ratings in the country, this is the most despicable stage in the country; here are innocent fast girls, kind-hearted audiences, and judges who adapt to the wind , the law that refers to a deer as a horse, maybe the first two and the latter two are not compatible at all, but mango can magically twist them together and put a gorgeous coat on it, covering up its original ugliness. And this high-sounding and hypocritical column finally became its unshakable gold-painted signature thanks to Mango's careful operation.
