On July 20, the national music variety show “The Voice of China 2023” held a press conference in Wuxing District, Huzhou City. Joker Xue, Liu Xianhua, Wilber Pan, and Emil Chow formed a new lineup of mentors, and the new competition system was officially announced. The new season will break the “blind selection” mode in the past 11 seasons, and add a “bright selection track”. Students can choose whether to face-to-face selection with the instructor.
It is reported that “The Voice of China 2023” will be broadcast on Zhejiang Satellite TV at 20:20 every Friday from July 28, and will be launched on Z Video Client at 20:50.
“Mingxuan Track” is exciting and cruel
The “Mingxuan Track” opened up more opportunities for students to show their stage performance. Singing and dancing, bands, visual music and other forms can be directly seen by the instructor. In the newly added “Mingxuan Track”, the trainees will face-to-face with the instructor as soon as they come out. During the performance, if the instructor thinks that the student is not suitable for joining his team, he can choose to switch back by pressing the button; if one of the instructors does not press the button to switch back following the performance, the student will enter the mentor’s team;
When they heard that in the “Mingxuan Track”, the instructors might turn around to show their refusal, the four instructors were all surprised. Wilber Pan commented on the new competition system as “exciting and cruel”, and urged the students in advance to muster up their courage and prepare a big heart. Xue Zhiqian bluntly said, “It’s actually a bit sad to turn around.” Liu Xianhua put himself in the position of a student, saying that if he faced this situation, he wondered if he might continue to perform. As someone who has experienced it, Zhou Huajian gave a message to young students to “be indifferent to winning or losing, and choose bravely”.
“Singer’s voice” is still the core criterion for mentor selection. Zhou Huajian described singers as “actors of voice”, and his selection criteria is “whether they can express their true feelings”. Xue Zhiqian said that if he meets an original singer with good writing and can convince him, he will definitely try his best to fight for it. Wilber Pan said: “The world of music is so big and wide, I think the distinction between so-called music types is just for the convenience of giving it a name, but music is music.”
The program group adjusted the height, drop, length and audience position of the stage this year, so that the audience can better integrate into the stage design. In addition, this year, the extra-long ground screen and sky screen were adopted to create a stage effect similar to that of a runway, making the stage depth more obvious. In addition, different track choices correspond to different colors, and the audience can predict the performance of the students in advance from the main visual color.
Chief director Jin Lei believes that the new competition system “The Voice of China 2023” will be a new stage for young students to pursue themselves and show their personal charm. It may surpass the previous eleven seasons and become a music carnival that showcases the vigor of youthful China.
The scene of the press conference continued to burst into flames
The key word frequently mentioned at the press conference is “young”. The four instructors of this season are not only the youngest combination in the history of the program, but also the pioneering addition of the “Mingxuan Track” makes the program competition system more able to show the diverse music styles of contemporary young people and embrace the music attitude of young people. Chief director Jin Lei revealed, “This year’s students will be full of youthful blood.” Xue Zhiqian also said that the fundamental reason why “The Voice of China” has been able to work for 12 years is that it has been attracting young people, so he is willing to be the “funny” role among the mentors, take on the important task of “adjusting the atmosphere”, and help “children” relieve tension, so as to better display their true strengths.
The other three instructors also did their homework. Wilber Pan said that he has successfully lost 16 catties. He joked that the main reason was “worried that the chair turns slower than other instructors”. Lau Hsien-Hua revealed that every subsequent stage will bring something new to everyone. Zhou Huajian said that he had made some mental adjustments before coming, and he also encouraged young people to use this opportunity to experience and practice facing pressure and difficulties.
It is not yet known exactly what the “Good Voice for Singing and Dancing” will be staged on “Mingxuan Track”, but the audience at the press conference first relived the “ancient morning” singing and dancing scene of the four instructors on the big screen, and people mightn’t help shouting “Ye Qinghui”. Encouraged by the enthusiasm of the audience, the four instructors reproduced classic movements and performances one following another.
Facing the effortless young version of Zhou Huajian who sang and danced “BLUE SUEDE SHOES”, Xue Zhiqian called him so handsome, and also said that he wanted his autumn clothes of the same style.
Wilber Pan, who has lost 16 pounds, reproduced the vacating action on the stage of “My Microphone” 20 years ago with the joint help of the other three mentors.
Liu Xianhua shyly covered his eyes when he saw the stage of “Young Blood”. But shyness is shyness, but the re-enactment is unambiguous, and the high-pitched voice comes as soon as it opens its mouth.
Xue Zhiqian, who appeared at the end, showed a little “disgust” for his “ancient” song “My Athena” on the surface, but he was still very professional in teaching on the spot.
