This program is considered the most authoritative singing competition over the years. Its selection process differs from the ordinary ones, where singers have to rely solely on their own charm to attract the audience and earn their popularity rank.
Several companies will select suitable newcomers to sign contracts at the grand finals. The first-place winner of the Starlight Cup will even be invited to the Jiangbei TV station's New Year's Eve concert, which guarantees a high level of exposure.
The current popular diva Xie Yurou, was the champion of the Starlight Cup a few years ago. After receiving much attention from Jiangbei TV station, she transitioned to film and television, and her popularity soared.
Due to the peculiar nature of this program, not everyone who wants to enter the training can do so; it usually requires connections. Most people are unable to participate in the training and can only register to attend the talent show.
