I sang a duet with Kit Chen in mbs 2011

China singing contest criteria is different.. They go for those 飆高音 boring song..Not surprise if they don't rate Kit highly//

[Ender]

This one if I'm not wrong depend on audience votes .. so the "wow" factor places a heavy weight on the ranking.

 

 

I caught a glimpse on one of those show (I don't know if it's the same one as Kit's joining) , they overplayed on the singer's background, make it like some sob story who deserve to win. Probably to win the sympathy votes..

This one is so spot on when it comes to China singing contest, wonder post before or not.

She is recording a new song "大圣归来" in the coming 3D animation "Monkey King: Hero is back" aka "西游记之大圣归来" (scheduled premiere in China, 6th Feb 2015)

I have nothing negative to say about Kit and hope she keeps her cool and finds the suitable songs/ arrangements to showcase her talent in the comeback match (and hopefully the grand final).

Be the best that she can be and the loyal, starry-eyed fans in the little red dot will be rooting for her, regardless.....

 

 

 

so the whole show was to create noise for the new album?

[Galantspeedz]

Whatever touches the hearts of the audience.

 

 

Recently a former participant for a major singing contest passed away, for real. So I suppose many of the sob stories can be true.

I think this statement is very unfair to Kit.

Or you may have overlooked the influence of "I am a Singer" series.

If we assume the following article to offer some correct numbers.

http://www.ce.cn/culture/gd/201501/07/t20150107_4282778.shtml

 

去年全市总票房首次突破3亿元，达3.37亿元；..

观众总人次首次突破1000万

 

-> 10mio movie goers (in a year) can contribute RMB$337mio

http://www.jfdaily.com/wenyu/new/201501/t20150121_1166672.html

 

第三季《我是歌手》开播后连续三期收视率破5%，全国观众规模近6500万

 

-> "I am Singer" viewership (in 3 weeks) = 65mio

I am Singer is much more influential than to promote for a relatively unknown movie.

Also, I don't think she was singing that song until she became a hit in the online world after 2 episodes.

And it is not an album, just a song in the movie.

[Jman888]

the whole show is for entertainment, if nothing controversial then nobody will talk about and watch.

 

try to out the weakest link and see if anyone bother? they can try to out the other two chinese guys or Han Hong to get more effect, but that will be a disaster

[Jman888]

but this season is not worth watching compared to the last season.

 

Also the two guy had appeared in another singing program last year so a bit over-exposed for them. The only person worth watching is Han Hong, i really cannot visualized her real person with her voice

[Toothiewabbit]

She is one classy lady and has a unique, melodic, jazzy voice that cannot be pigeon-holed by 1or 2 genres.

 

One of few local singers who could sing live and hit the right notes.

 

I do not understand why she joined this competition...

Staging a come back maybe.

...ya, or maybe China too big a market to ignore or the moolah is good

 

Next up, Olivia Ong....Corrinne May!??

[Freestylers09]

100% china singer win one la....

 

But for other singers..is open a path for them in china to earn big $$

 

Of all season,i think Lin Zhi Xuan the best..end up also won by Yu Quan

 

And their audiences can act even better than our local actor/actress lol

Yes, I do agree it is a show.

Especially interesting is the section on "录制潜规则"

As such, there is such a comment this days:

这几年来不管台上歌手表现怎么起伏，发挥最稳定的还是台下的观众

This following is a funny one

but back to kit chan. I do think she is one of the best singers In Singapore ever.

She can be our local Cai Qin.
