Announced! How did The Voice of China, accused by Li Min, rise and fall?

On August 25, after a week of heated discussion, like ants on a hot pot, Lantai finally announced that "The Voice of China" was off the air.

1. A loud noise: Why did the recording of Li Min's accusation against The Voice of China cause heated discussions on the Internet?

On August 17, an audio before Li Min's death was suddenly exposed on the Internet, with a total audio duration of more than nine minutes and composed of three audio segments.

Li Min is emotional, angry and sad in the audio, and all three audio recordings tell about his experience during the recording of The Voice of China.

After this audio was exposed, it quickly gained the attention of the whole network, and the entries were at the top of the hot search lists of various platforms all night, even in the middle of the morning, many people couldn't sleep with excitement about this matter and expressed their opinions.

Before discussing why this audio has caused heated discussions on the Internet, let's briefly summarize the content of Li Min in the audio.

Li Min said in the recording that before he participated in the recording of "The Voice of China", breast cancer was already very serious, but Li Min liked the show "The Voice of China" (before the recording) and wanted to help children who love music grow, so he still participated in the recording.

When recording the "The Voice of China" promotion competition, Li Min thought that there was a problem with the competition format because the students were treated unfairly, and asked to modify the format, but the director team did not agree, so Li Min had a dispute with the director team, and the program team asked Li Min to leave and make a move on Li Min.

After Li Min questioned the unfairness of the format, the relevant clips were supported by netizens, which led to the modification of the format of "The Voice of China". After that, the program group of "The Voice of China" asked Li Min to write a Weibo of reconciliation with the program group, and asked to complete the subsequent program recording, otherwise Li Min's students would be blackened out, Li Min forced to write a reconciliation Weibo for the sake of his students, and decided to complete the recording of all programs.

In the rehearsal before the final recording, Li Min's leg disease was already unbearable, but in order to present the effect on the stage, she decided to give up taking crutches and sitting in a wheelchair during the formal recording, and only asked the cooperative trainees to be around, after she communicated with the trainees, in order to prove the leg disease, Li Min gave the X-ray to the director and communicated the matter to the director, and the director also agreed.

As a result, when the recording began, the co-trainee was suddenly called away. Li Min couldn't bear the pain of leg disease and breast cancer, and fell down after singing his own part, and then endured the pain and continued to sing harmony, forcibly finishing the show.

On the day of Li Min's memoir, she felt very helpless on the stage, which she said was the biggest insult she had received since her debut 28 years ago.

In addition, Li Min's foot injury recurred during the recording of the show, and the pain suffered by strong support recording and falling on stage caused her hip displacement nerve line to be suppressed at that time, and she thought she could no longer dance, almost desperate.

As a result, the final program was edited and broadcast, and Li Min's footage was greatly cut.

As a result, Li Min suffered major trauma both physically and mentally.

Ok, the above is the core content of Li Min's recording, let's talk about why such a recording will cause heated discussions on the Internet.

The first is time.

This audio was exposed on Thursday afternoon, and it rushed to the hot search that night, and this time was very good.

According to the normal two-day system, people on Thursday afternoons have begun to look forward to the coming of the weekend, emotions are more excited, thinking is more active, so the degree of attention and attention to such social hot events will be very high, and although there is work on Friday, but the weekend can be rested, so the idea of restraining themselves from going to bed early on Thursday will be weaker, which will contribute to the heated discussion throughout the night.

Moreover, such a major social hot event must be the talk of communication between people, plus most people are disgusted and resistant to work, and being able to communicate with people about this kind of explosive news will make Friday easier and better, which forces the public to understand the event.

The second is the recording itself, which touches everyone's hearts very strongly both in terms of content and the speaker.

In terms of content, all kinds of "shady scenes", "injustice", and even "capital operation" and "suppression of ordinary people" are topics that ordinary citizens are very concerned about. Since there are too many "injustices" in life, we are also more sensitive to these two words and can have a strong resonance. At the same time, most people are genuinely dissatisfied with the privileged holders, and such social public events open a huge outlet for the general public to vent their emotions.

In terms of speakers, Li Min is a well-known public figure, and everyone generally has a high favorable impression of Li Min. The accident that happened last month also made the public very regretful, and many people are considering the real cause of Li Min's depression, this recording seems to be telling the public an "answer", more than a month of puzzles, seems to finally get the answer, superimposed on Li Min's extreme regret, so emotions will produce more powerful fluctuations, thereby promoting the fermentation and spread of events.

Again, the response of all parties after the incident.

On the night that Li Min's recording was hotly searched, the official Weibo of The Voice of China posted a response, but the attitude was extremely arrogant, and it even said an explanation that completely fooled people as fools, saying that it was "some recordings scattered on the online platform after malicious editing by self-media accounts."

This attitude immediately stimulated the public, and the public's expected response was an official apology with a sincere attitude and a humble attitude, but the actual thing was completely opposite, and this reality was completely contrary to the expectation and had a very large impact on the public, so the public would further denounce and vent after being stimulated.

And that night, there were also students and some artists of The Voice of China who spoke out, among which a very long small essay by student Li Jiajie was even more informative to the shady news of The Voice of China, which added firewood to the shady and unbearable scene of The Voice of China.

The other vocal artists, here are KOL opinion leaders, who have a higher voice and driving force, so that more public can see that people with status are on their "side", so they have more courage to speak out on the incident.

Then it hit the most favorable time period for the fermentation of the three-day event on Friday, Saturday and Sunday.

Netizens who are idle at home have spoken out when they have enough time, more artists have expressed their views, more students have broken the news, the stock price of The Voice of China's parent company has plummeted, the identity of the director of The Voice of China who scolded Li Min has been exposed, Na Xin has led to Na Ying's continuation of the heated discussion in Rakshasa Hai City, Changchun A radio station has stated that it will never cooperate with "The Voice of China", the host Hua Shao's comment area has fallen, the sponsor of The Voice of China has been boycotted, and the media has also come in to discuss, all of which make netizens think that their voice is meaningful.

And everyone's ultimate goal is to apologize for the suspension of "The Voice of China", so in order to achieve this goal, netizens will try to continue to denounce.

Finally, on August 25, the day of the update of "The Voice of China", Lantai official blog posted that "in view of the problems reported by the audience and netizens that the "The Voice of China" program is under investigation, the program is suspended from broadcasting.

Although this Weibo looks informal, the statement of this move does meet some of the public's expectations to a certain extent, and this week's voice can be regarded as a substantive response.

Next, how Lantai or "The Voice of China" should face the problems mentioned by Li Min Audio head-on, how to face the subsequent explosion of a bunch of shady scenes, or cold treatment and rectification and permanent removal or re-listing, depends on the subsequent development.

Second, the rise and fall: from the attention to the suspension of bad reviews, how did The Voice of China get to where it is today?

Before becoming a rat crossing the street, the original good voice of China can be described as a lot of attention.

In 2012, The Voice of China was born, this show was introduced after acquiring the copyright of "The Voice of Holland", and successfully reproduced the success of the original version that year.

The choice of the four mentor swivel chairs in this format is eye-catching; Many of the contestants who participated in the competition did actively or passively tell eye-catching "good Chinese stories", focusing on people from songs, and then listening to his songs from people; In addition, the novel model of star mentors and trainees working together became one of the important reasons for the success of The Voice of China at that time.

However, as the show aired, more and more insiders were exposed.

From the very beginning of the relatively less harmful "contestants make up stories", the show deliberately created scripts to create contradictory topics.

Then to the later injustice and shady scenes, 500,000 swivel chairs, black box elimination, unfair rules, and problematic formats, all of which made the show more and more controversial, but because the contestants and mentors who could get ahead signed confidentiality agreements, although there were many controversies, no credible person could really sit on these issues.

But in fact, before Li Min's audio was exposed, many mentors had spoken out in some programs to reveal the problem of China's good voice.

For example, Liu Huan, the mentor of the first and sixth seasons of "The Voice of China", broke the news that "The Voice of China" records more than ten hours a day, "from two o'clock in the afternoon to three or four in the morning the next day", but many people have no chance to show their faces at all, and he hopes that the show can broadcast more professional comments from mentors on the contestants, rather than something that is easy to generate public opinion controversy.

But this is also a more tactful statement, and Eason Chen is more blunt, naming the existence of shady scenes and scripts in The Voice of China. Eason Chan, who participated in the sixth season, exposed that the director forced him to shoot the trainees he didn't want, so as to produce the footage of "robbing the trainees" with Na Ying.

And Liao Changyong even quit halfway, although the reason given by the program group was "to withdraw from the program recording of "The Voice of China 2022" due to the teaching task arrangement of the Shanghai Conservatory of Music". But obviously the reason for quitting halfway will not be so simple.

But none of this really dealt a fatal blow to The Voice of China, until the advent of Li Min's recording.

The whole network was scolded, sponsors were boycotted, everyone was denounced, and the stock price of the parent company plummeted. Li Min's fatal blow made more and more people who originally did not dare to speak out also come forward to tell the truth, and this blow was bought by Li Min with his life.

To some extent, perhaps because Li Min has passed away, she will not be retaliated against for exposing the shady scene of China's good voice, so this recording will be circulated, and we can learn such a truth.

However, the of a thousand miles collapsed in the anthill, if it were not rotten inside, there would not be today's total rout. I hope that other programs can take this as a warning, give participants the most basic fairness and justice, protect participants, let variety shows return to their original meaning, and bring real joy and pleasure to the audience.
