Chapter 745

Through the instant follow-up of the contestants and the non-stop interviews, today, halfway through the first episode, the audience has already got a general understanding of these girls.

Cindy Crawford showed up with two other guest hosts to kick off the contestants' first contest, announcing that one of the thirteen girls would be eliminated after the contest was over.

Amidst the apprehension and wailing on the screen, the audience in front of the TV was also a little stunned. It was only the first episode, and it was too cruel to have to activate the elimination mechanism in a hurry?

Unconsciously, many people's attention was firmly grasped by the show again.

The scene was switched. When the contestants appeared at the Arsenal on Lexington Avenue, the contestants cheered in surprise, and the audience couldn't help but widen their eyes.

The reputation of the Victoria's Secret show is at its peak. The Lexington Avenue Arsenal in Manhattan has also become a fashion holy place in people's hearts because it was the venue for the first Victoria's Secret show. Many young people who have watched the Victoria's Secret show come here. When you go to New York, you will go to the arsenal to worship.

Hello, girls, you must know what this place is, Cindy Crawford reappeared in front of the crowd.

Cindy Crawford continued: Then, your first test is about to take place here. The fashion used in this competition is entirely handmade by top designers under the ltd group. Each of you can choose a set of beautiful women's clothing, and professional designers will style you Prep time, ok, go! go! go!

As Cindy gave the order, all the girls rushed to the backstage impatiently, followed by the camera, and soon appeared in a hall, where twenty sets of exquisite women's clothes were worn on plastic models one by one. These clothes were all Brighton fashion under ltd. The latest releases coming in the fall are, of course, more sophisticated and upscale than the ready-made ones sold in stores.

The camera swipes over these exquisite women's clothing, and then turns to the contestants again.

In the picture, some girls are dazzling, wandering between several sets of clothes; some girls can't wait to choose a set of clothes, and then go to the dressing room; two girls choose a set of clothes at the same time. , and there were disputes.

All this was really recorded on the camera. Even when the two girls quarreled, no one came forward to dissuade them. In the end, both girls realized that if the quarrel continued, it would only make them all Being eliminated, this is a compromise.

This kind of realistic conflict plot greatly satisfies the voyeuristic desire of TV viewers, and involuntarily begins to criticize the girls they like or hate.

The ensuing make-up episode ends swiftly in a quick cut.

After a TV commercial, the screen went black. With the sound of clack, the strong lights on the roof of the performance hall of the arsenal gradually turned on, and a familiar scene appeared in front of everyone. Although the layout has changed a lot, many people I still clearly remember that just last year, on the runway, forty selected Victoria's Secret Angels staged a gorgeous show that attracted much attention.

However, thinking of the thirteen girls who looked very mediocre, many viewers could not help but wonder, do those girls have enough strength to walk on this runway?

Curiosity was aroused, and the audience's eyes were tightly locked on the screen.

In the picture, Cindy Crawford turned around the arch at the backstage exit and walked slowly to the runway, with a smile of memory on her face, saying: Wow, it's really nostalgic. However, today this stage will belong to us. Girls, um, well, let's get started now.

After speaking, Cindy and several other guest judges sat in the guest seat, and the photographer responsible for taking pictures set up a professional camera at the end of the runway.

The music started and the lights started to flicker.

At the exit of the runway, when the first girl appeared in the camera, almost all the audience were taken aback.

Stunning, completely amazing with a 180-degree transformation.

Some people didn't even remember which girl in the shot was from before.

Hand-made gorgeous fashions, shapes created by top designers, combined with lighting and music rendering in the scene, completely create a beautiful dream scene.

In fact, professional fashion people are very aware that even some supermodels and supermodels, in daily circumstances, look no different from ordinary people, and will not make people shocked at a glance. The reason why the effect like a goddess descending on the runway appears, in addition to its own professional skills, clothing, makeup, lighting, and music all play a very important role in rendering.

In the camera, although the steps of the players are obviously green in the eyes of ordinary viewers, they are far from being compared with those super touch dels. But after this series of professional elements, combined with the ingenious editing of the production team, it immediately gave everyone a sense of transformation like a sparrow becoming a phoenix.

At the beginning of the show, many people still doubted whether these girls had the potential to become models, but after the two-minute runway show ended, everyone's doubts were dispelled, and some people in front of the TV thought that they would never become models. The girl who was a stunner involuntarily had a sense of substitution in her heart, fantasizing about what effect she would have on that stage.

At the end of the fashion show, when many audiences are still reminiscing, the cruel elimination link has come.

As the number of photos in Cindy's hands decreased one by one, many viewers' moods were firmly grasped, and they prayed that their favorite players would not be eliminated, and many people hoped that the players they hated could leave.

When the results came out, some were happy, some regretted, and some shouted that it was unfair, but nothing could be changed, and many people had already begun to silently look forward to the broadcast of the next episode.

ABC headquarters, although Anne Sweeney told her to go back and wait for the result, Cindy still stayed in Anne Sweeney's office. The fashion week has ended. This year's Victoria's Secret show is in the early stages of preparation and fitting. Both Cindy and Linda are temporarily free, and Linda also comes over to join in the fun.

The three girls chatted nervously over coffee, and glanced at the TV in the office from time to time. Unlike ABC, Lietime TV can get special treatment from Nielsen's instant report on the ratings. They can only get it after the broadcast of the program is completed. The approximate statistical results and detailed data will even have to wait until tomorrow morning.

After the first episode aired, a full half an hour later, there was a knock on the office door, and Anne Sweeney got up and walked out.

Knowing the results were coming, Cindy took a deep breath, feeling her heart beating a lot faster. Glancing at Linda, who was drinking coffee leisurely and casually flipping the pages of the magazine in front of her, she pouted and said dissatisfiedly, Do you seem relaxed?

It's not my show, why should I be nervous? Linda said without looking up.

Then what are you doing here today?

Linda shrugged, with a faint smirk at the corner of her mouth: It's nothing, I just want to see your restless appearance.

Cindy's heart suddenly burst into flames: Believe it or not, I'll strangle you!

Don't scare me, I'm timid, Linda shrank her neck timidly, but the signs of pretense were too obvious, and Cindy reached out and twisted her waist fiercely: Ah, you vicious Woman, really pinch.

Hmph, do you think I've been joking with you?

Linda pulled off the leather jacket on her body, lifted up her close-fitting purple sweater and looked at her waist. After all, Cindy didn't do anything ruthless. The pinched area was only a little red, but not bruised. After rubbing lightly, Linda muttered, I will definitely complain to Eric, just wait, I will say that you have a tendency to abuse children.

Ha, don't think that if you have a baby voice, you can pretend to be Lolita, and abuse children, hmph, don't look at how old you are.

Of course I'm not Lolita... Linda snorted a few times and said half a word if she meant something.

Of course Cindy knew the deep meaning of Linda's words. Just as she was about to say something, Anne Sweeney pushed open the office door and walked in. She got up quickly and looked at Anne Sweeney's expression. Relax.

At least, judging by Anne Sweeney's expression, the ratings were good.

Anne Sweeney was in a really good mood. She shook the form in her hand and smiled, Guess what's the ratings?

Linda blurted out: 700,000?

I'll hit you, Cindy glared at Linda and said to Anne Sweeney, Okay, Anne, I'm dying of anxiety.

With a smile on her face, Annie Sweeney handed the form in her hand to Cindy, and said, From the preliminary statistics, the ratings are definitely going to break records. The highest number of viewers is 2.75 million, and the average number of viewers is 00,000. The average rating of 1.3 is well above last year's peak. I'm already thinking, next week, we can use this stunt to promote it.

Cindy looked over the data table and relaxed.

The average number of viewers was 00,000, which exceeded the expected pass line of 1.5 million by a full 800,000 people. It was more than three times the average viewership of Lietime TV in the same period last year. This number is absolutely amazing. Although it is far from being compared with the four major TV stations, Lietime TV station only has a viewing base of more than 30 million. This figure is equivalent to robbing one-fifteenth of the audience within this base. For a public station with universal coverage, the equivalent viewership should be around 18 million.

Linda looked at the form in Cindy's hand and said, I think this should be the effect of all the propaganda added together some time ago, right?

Cindy was stunned after hearing this.

Although the production cost is 20 million US dollars, during this period, the publicity resources invested by various channels, if converted into cash, are probably close to 10 million US dollars. This cost is completely equivalent to the proportion of the film promotion fee, which is definitely very high in the TV industry. high.

It is almost a matter of course that the 10 million publicity expenses can be exchanged for the highest viewership of 2.9 million for the first broadcast.

The real results of America's Next Top Model also need to see the next trend in ratings.

Anne Sweeney is in a more optimistic mood. Even if the ratings will start to decline in the future, but there are 00,000 people at the bottom, then after one season is broadcast, the average score will remain above the passing line of 1.5 million. There is absolutely no problem. As long as the reputation is not too bad, this show can continue to be produced.

After all, it is an inconspicuous basic cable station. After the completion of the first season of America's Next Top Model, the response in the media was not too great, and it was even more incomparable with the strong TV dramas that were gradually launched on public channels. .

Another reality show that satisfies people's voyeuristic desires and curiosity. The plot setting is slightly scattered, but it can firmly grasp the audience's emotions. Although the audience is small, it is worth watching.

A reality show that imitates the Survivor model, but the perspective is on the modeling industry that young people are very concerned about. Cindy Crawford is still so radiant. In the first episode, the players have transformed from mediocre to gorgeous, But it is eye-catching.”

I like the part where the mediocre girls turn sparrows into phoenixes, but I dislike the inexplicable elimination mechanism. I can't see any reason for the player named Lena to be eliminated. Maybe it's just to attract the audience's attention. .
