Chapter 902: "SUCCESSOR/Successor" (2)

Phil knows that if he follows the path of ordinary people, the chance of failure is too great.
Although he has a lot of funds to use, it is not necessarily an advantage in the path of ordinary people, but may have a counterproductive effect.
In the past, a rich man participated in a superhero talent show. By stuffing money into the show group, he added shots to himself, asked his tutor to give a higher evaluation, and asked some contestants to cooperate with his performance.
However, such behavior aroused the audience's disgust and resistance. Although the talents gained some popularity by burning money when the talent show was broadcast, they failed to reach the second stage and lost their voice.
It has to be said that to become a superhero requires not only money and popularity, but also strength, at least to make people like it-no matter what type of like.
After thinking about it, Phil felt that if he also participated in the superhero selection program like everyone else, then he would just follow this old path. Will the audience like themselves? Dislike should be a high probability event.
Because the rich participate in the selection of superheroes, they are naturally deducted points.
The audience prefers superheroes who come from the civilian class, have tragic backgrounds, and show a strong sense of social responsibility.
Although Phil has fans, in the minds of the vast majority of the public, he is an unreliable playboy, naturally giving people a "unreliable" feeling.
What's more, the motives of the rich to participate in the superhero draft are obvious.
Therefore, Phil decided to go another way: to personally fund a superhero talent show.
At present, several popular superhero talent show, the exclusive naming cost has almost exceeded 100 million dollars.
Of course, the production cost of these talent shows is also extremely high.
Because the draft of superheroes is different from the general talent show, in addition to the regular venues, these superheroes also have to run a lot of location scenes, as well as some arranged special events.
In addition, if the talent show is to have sufficient influence, it is necessary to invite superheroes with sufficient popularity and influence as mentors. The appearance fees of these people are sky-high.
Therefore, Phil has to spend at least 200 million dollars before his plan can be successful.
The risk of doing so is very huge, this price can get the exclusive naming fee of many superhero talent shows, and the exclusive naming fee can play a very good advertising effect on the real estate business of the Simmons family.
In other words, if you use the money to buy exclusive titles for other talent shows, you will not lose too much.
But Phil cannot be named, at least not exclusively. On the one hand, this attitude is still obvious, which can easily arouse audience's suspicion and affect the overall plan; on the other hand, it is because, without sufficient interests, other large consortia will never participate in it.
Therefore, Phil's plan is to unite the consortium behind the two hottest superhero talent show variety shows, and organize the "Successor" variety show in the name of these two consortia.
On the surface, the Simmons family will completely separate the relationship with the variety show "The Successor" without naming it, so even if someone thinks that there is a transfer of interests behind this, it will not feel too much.
The two big consortiums have been fighting for the first time in the field of superheroes, and letting them jointly name the variety show "The Successor" will enable this show to gain extremely high popularity and attention before it is broadcast. degree.
For these two large consortia, they can get the naming rights of a hugely invested superhero talent show without any investment, with a value of at least tens of millions of dollars. Why should you refuse this kind of good thing that comes to your door?
The only thing Phil Simmons wants is that the production team of this variety show uses his own people to ensure that the show develops in accordance with the script he designed.
Phil will serve as a mentor in the variety show "The Successor".
There are a total of four mentors in the show. In addition to Phil, there is also a superhero, a superhero’s gold agent, and a superhero’s director of marketing.
The other three mentors are all big names in the field of superheroes, and the whole point of their existence is to act on Phil and create an illusion that "Phil and these people are of the same level" to all audiences. .
In fact, with Phil's ability and knowledge reserves, it is absolutely impossible to show exactly the same level of performance with the other three instructors on this occasion.
But it doesn't matter, he has the script in his hand.
As long as he plays according to the script, Phil will be all right.
Phil has no experience in making superhero talent show variety shows, but under the reward, there must be a brave man. As long as you are willing to spend enough money, as long as you hire the right people, then all these problems can be solved.
Not every top superhero is interested in being a mentor on such a variety show, because it's a bit like a child's house, but as long as you give enough money, you can always find a suitable candidate.
After Phil gave a lot of money, "Successor" was entrusted to a very capable TV station in Hope City for production, and the audition and filming work was quickly put on the agenda.
The production of "Successor" is similar to other superhero talent shows. The audition is going on as normal, and potential newcomers who hope to become superheroes are tapped from across the country. Through a series of exercises and competitions, the final winner is determined.
It's just an innovation in the rules of the program: the rules of robbing people between tutors and teaming up are adopted.
Four mentors formed a team by grabbing people, and the four teams formed a group competition to determine the final winner.
On the basis of this rule, Phil got the "second place" script.
The reason why I got the second place script is because the first place is too scornful. According to the arrangement of the script, Phil's team will be a team that "seems not strong, but is actually very strong".
In other words, this group of people will deliberately not behave so well during the audition, and at this time Phil will see the shining points on them and attract them to his subordinates. In the formal team competition, these people will behave completely new, but there is still a certain gap in hard power, so unfortunately they lost and finally won the second place.
In this way, the audience will feel that these people are a group of mediocre people, and under the guidance of Phil, they all have a very good performance~EbookFREE.me~ finally got the second place. The name is not the problem of Phil, the mentor, but the team members are too savvy to lead.
In this way, most viewers will think that Phil is a on the surface, but in fact a very capable person, at the same level as the other three bigwigs.
And this will lay a solid foundation for Phil's next plan.
Soon, after "Successor" just released the list of mentors, it has not been broadcast first!
In these lists, there are long-standing superheroes, gold brokers, and marketing directors. All of them are insiders in the field of superheroes, and all of them have high reputations. But besides these three people, there is actually Phil Simmons, a famous and rich second-generation who has many fans on Twitter?
There was a voice of doubt on the Internet: Phil Simmons may have a good degree and he is also the CEO of a company, but is he really qualified to be a mentor for this kind of show?
But soon, this voice of doubt was overshadowed, because the program group of "The Successor" immediately announced the program's competition system: four instructors will compete among the contestants and start a team competition.
As a result, those viewers who questioned Phil Simmons before began to gloat and want to wait to see Phil Simmons embarrassed on the show.
Although the four tutors have the same "enrollment quota", the best and most potential group of people will definitely be snatched away by the other three tutors. Phil can only pick up some crooked melons that are one grade inferior in strength. Split dates.
When the time comes, the team battle will be one-sided, and Phil's team will undoubtedly become a point-sending baby. I am afraid it will be difficult to win a small game.
So under this huge topical heat, the first episode of "The Successor" officially started.
