Chapter 99 - Watching Live TV Broadcast In The Live Broadcasting Room

July 10, 07:30 in the evening.

Beijing Satellite TV, the daily 7: 00 current affairs news has just ended, and “Singing China” Qualification Competition has officially began, attracting a large number of viewers to lock in the channel.

Since 2008, there has been a blowout of domestic film and television variety shows. A large number of Reality Show competitions can be seen on the screen (TV), forming an extremely competitive market, but this also inevitably caused aesthetic fatigue of the audience. (TN: Aesthetic fatigue means loss of interest because of seeing of the same thing too much.)

Under the rule of survival of the fittest, many shoddy or fake Reality Show programs have been cut down one after another, and the ones that survive are those with high-quality production, and Beijing Satellite TV, as a veteran TV station, its first reality talent show “Singing China” has also attracted a lot of attention inside and outside the circle. (TN: Survival of the fittest or Natural selection: The good remains while the bad is eliminated.)

In the previous auditions, the ratings were as high as 3.27%, and tonight’s live qualifying contest will undoubtedly hit a new high.

Like all other satellite TV stations, Beijing Satellite TV also has a live webcast channel, synchronously broadcasting program content to hundreds of millions of Internet users, taking into account the two most important media, the TV screen and the computer screen.

And just this evening, the program broadcasted by the Beijing Satellite TV Network was linked to the Lu Fei’s live broadcasting room of [Whale TV], where there are as many as 500,000+ onlookers online.

500,000+ internet users are gathered in a live broadcasting room to watch live TV, which is a really very rare situation. It should be known, most people have TV at home, and TV viewing experience is undoubtedly far better than watching through the computer.

But the internet has an incomparable advantage over television, that is, interactive communication!

“Singing China” Logo has just appeared on the screen, and Lu Fei’s live studio is already very lively.

“Here we go, wife. Come and see the anchor!”

“Where is the anchor now? Don’t talk nonsense!”

“Who knows when Lu Fei will be on stage? I’m so looking forward to his singing!”

“Do you think the anchor can get a quarter-final pass card?”

“Isn’t that nonsense? If General Lu can’t do it, who else can? ”

“I saw the audition earlier, and the anchor was so handsome!”

“According to the most reliable information, the anchor will be on stage at 08:35. I welcome everyone to pay attention and smash fish balls!”

“Really?”

“……”

The screen was densely packed with barrages and the issue that everyone was most concerned about was when will Lu Chen be on stage.

They can’t wait to see Lu Chen’s debut on the big stage.

Lu Chen’s participation in the “Singing China” talent show was announced early in the live broadcasting room, which was supported by the regular viewers, the Lu family army group, and vast majority of fans.

Everyone is looking forward to his more exciting performance in the wider world.

Tonight’s qualifying round is very important, plus it’s Friday night, so there are a lot of people online.

And instead of Lu Chen, the host of the live broadcast was naturally Li Feiyu.

Although his schoolmate, Brother Fei, didn’t get involve in live broadcasting very early, he still has some skills. He relied on his glib tongue that he refined as a salesman, make impromptu comic gestures and remarks, and tell jokes to bring a good atmosphere in the studio.

From 7 o’clock till now, in just half an hour, he has gifted a full 3T fish balls for Lu Chen!

Many small anchors of [Whale TV], who has worked hard live broadcasting for a year or two, posted a lot of traffic charges and electricity bills, may not be able to earn so many fish balls.

“I repeat, our Lu Fei’s number is 0030!”

Li Feiyu said loudly, “He will go on stage later on. I don’t know the exact time, so don’t ask the same question any more. I will inform you immediately when I have the latest news. Let’s first watch the live competition!”

In live broadcasting, female anchors, especially beautiful female anchors, have a lot of advantages over male anchors. Even daily live broadcasting of their cooking and laundry can attract a large number of otaku’s attention.

Among male anchors, game anchors are much better than entertainment anchors. Lu Chen is now a popular entertainment anchor in [Whale TV]. But compared with popular game anchors like Xiaogu, he is still much worse, even though he has defeated the latter on the PK theme show.

As a male anchor, sitting in front of the screen, playing an instrument and singing to himself, although with the support of original songs, the audience will still be aesthetically tired, which is not as fresh and excitement as the wild adventure of life, nor is it as exciting as live games, and there are natural disadvantages.

Lu Chen knew this very well, so he regards [Whale TV] as a springboard in his life. With the plan of not sticking to the broadcasting career for a long time, he will only stick to it until the end of the stipulated time in the contract at most.

On the other hand, he is also seeking new ideas and change. For example, the last live broadcast of Light Blue Music Carnival Night is a good form, and this “Singing China” talent show can also stimulate the fans, bringing more attention.

Lu Chen even thought about whether he could live broadcast in the backstage of Beijing Satellite TV. However, they were not allowed to do this. They were not even allowed to take pictures, let alone taking videos.

So, he changed it to broadcast the program and asked Li Feiyu to act as the host.

The fans’ response was very warm and enthusiastic, especially when the first judge appeared.

“Tan Hong!”

“it’s unexpectedly Tan Hong, my male god!”

“Beijing Satellite TV is really awesome. They unexpectedly invited Tan Hong to be the judge.”

“I remember the anchor had sung several songs of Tan Hong. Do you think he will sing one of his songs in the evening?”

“It would be the best if he sing one of them, because Tan Hong is a judge!”

“Come on, General Lu will definitely sing an original, and still be able to conquer Heavenly King Tan!”

“Sorry for asking but who is Tan Hong?”

In addition to the excitement and cheers, there are also silly people who ask silly questions.

As a result, he was sprayed to pieces on the spot: “You don’t know Tan Hong? It’s the exposure age, take jujube pills!”

Tan Hong has been singing for more than 20 years. His influence is mainly concentrated in the post-70s and post-80s generation, and in post-90s, a lot of people still knows him, but in has gotten worse in the post-00s.

The latter two pay more attention to the popular male and female group idols!

Following Tan Hong’s appearance, Chen Fei’er also set off a wave of joy and praise in the live broadcasting room.

“Goddess!”

“Tan Hong + Chen Fei’er, dream judge group ah!”

“Among other things, just for these two people. I’m going to finish watching the live broadcast tonight, too.”

“Finish watching + 1!”

“Do you think Chen Fei’er will like our anchor?”

“Yes, she will certainly like him!”

“Hehe…”

As for the third judge, Zhen Zhen, the editor-in-chief of Pop Music magazine, and the fourth judge, Lin Zhijie, the music director of Flying Stone Records, they were magnificently ignored.

Some people even asked, “Are these two people here to make up the number?”

Luckily, Zhen Zhen and Lin Zhijie do not watch live webcast, otherwise they will definitely vomit blood –We are really not passers-by!

Ever since contestant No. 0001 appeared on stage, the qualifying round of “Singing China” has been going on.

The atmosphere in Lu Fei’s live broadcasting room tends to be peaceful, with far fewer barrages, mostly commenting on the contestants.

And compared with the comments of the judges on the spot, the comments contain in the barrages were much more venomous!

Until contestant No. 0029, Gao Feng, came on stage.

His song “in Spring” instantly rekindled the hot atmosphere in the live broadcasting room.

“In Spring? Isn’t that the song that Lu Fei wrote?”

“Yes, our anchor wrote it for the Wandering band. There are three songs in total, all of which are original work.”

“Lu Fei is very powerful!”

“It’s a good song. It’s a very good song written by our General Lu!”

“Hahaha, that’s so interesting. The one coming up next on stage is Lu Fei, and he actually sang his song in front of him!”

“This wasn’t specially arranged by the program, was it?”

“It’s possible, otherwise it would be a bit of a coincidence. Interesting.”

“Excited…”

Some time ago, the Wandering band’s mini-album hit the charts. Lu Chen had also advertised them in the live broadcasting room, calling for support, so many people know the three songs “In Spring”, “I Want To Have A Home” and “Reason to be Strong”.

It was all written by Lu Chen!

Among them, “In Spring”, was sang by Lu Chen in person in the live broadcast!

So, everyone was overjoyed to see that the contestants in before him had chosen this song to compete in the competition.

However, this is not the point. The point is that after Gao Feng finished singing, Lu Chen appeared on the stage.

Although the song “Life on The String” didn’t satisfy the fan’s highest request, it is also worthy of the wait.

But the real surprise is yet to come.

Lu Chen, unexpectedly got Lin Zhijie’s golden buzzer and was directly promoted! (TN: Raw says “direct promotion to golden eggs”. Not sure what this mean, so I made some changes.)
