Hall explains the decoding process as that audience is on the basis on understanding of television texts to take a dominant, or negotiated, or oppositional position. That is to say, after understanding the coding intent of coders, audience is based on their own needs, by using different decoding positions to decode. Hall points out, decoding model includes dominant-hegemonic position, negotiating position, oppositional position (Hall, 1973; 2011).
In terms of the survey results, the majority of the respondents held the encoding mode of a negotiating position, which means that television audience on the one hand recognized the authority of dominance ideology, on the other hand, they also stressed their specific situation.
On the one hand, most of the interviewees indicated that they liked the program “I am a singer”, showing that they identified with the form of the program produced, on the other hand, most of the respondents said that they preferred Hong Kong singers, followed by Taiwan singers, because their singing style were more in line with their aesthetic needs, and the last were the mainland singers, which indicated that the decoding process of the respondents was affected by their culture and identification.
4.0 Discussion 讨论
4.1 Introduction of GEM
The reason why the respondents enjoyed this show is due to the selected songs in the show are less quiet, lyrical type. In addition, the audience would resonate and enjoy those singers who selected to sing with treble, who made the atmosphere livelier songs that can often get a higher number of votes. The audience will be inclined to those singers who can affect the atmosphere and produce excitement, and therefore vote to singers who sing this type of song. Some singers who sing with quiet genre, music arrangement is relatively simple. Although it is able to move the audience, the poll results vastly low because there are no treble characteristics. Such as warm, unpretentious singer Victor Wong, Taiwan singer, was welcome to the show, but the audience still reject such singer.
Hong Kong singer, GEM Tang, battled those senior singers, including Taiwan singer Phil Chang, Malaysia singer Gary Chaw, Chinese singers Han Lei, Wei Wei, Lo qi and Zhou Bichang. 90s GEM Tang sings "bubble" in this competition. She is very unfamiliar for China viewers, but her performance impressed the audience. Those China fans left messages which praising her pretty and sing very well. Thus she instantly becomes a sensation overnight.
Hong Kong music circles and many of senior Hong Kong celebrities, including Alan Tam, Na Ying, Alfred Hui, Chrissie Chau, etc., all appreciate GEM. Alan words, “I saw you in I am a singer was very touching, proud of you!” Na Ying said, “The first super like is GEM Tang!!” Chrissie also said, “Shocked by GEM’s performances and very pleased to see the new generation of Hong Kong have chance of competing against the mainland singers. Support G.E.M.” People feel for GEM only appreciation because of her performances have delighted and moved Hong Kong people. And Hong Kong people think that this is part of the pride of Hong Kong people. Brown (1990) claimed, “The experience of reading about women as audiences is reminiscent of reading anthropology. ‘Women’ are objectifiable, somehow a unified whole, a group. The qualities that divide women, like class, ethnicity, age, education, are always of less significance than the unifying qualities attributed to women.” Most of the women and the women interviewees (with different class, age, education) would think that Hong Kong singer or any women singer is better in the same show by their subjective thinking.
The first season of “I am a singer” won by Yu Quan, indicating that the result was predetermined. There was a word spread of the winner will be the mainlanders, the hot pick singer Han Lei also has the home field advantage. Home is defined as “a place where people or animals live and are cared for by people who are not their relations or owners”; Field is defined as “a place where you are working or studying in real situations, rather than from an office, laboratory, etc.” Both can be found in Cambridge Dictionary. But for the meaning of home field advantage, it always uses to describe a sporting event. Urban Dictionary indicated, “To have an advantage in a sporting event with your home fans, city, state, etc. Visiting teams have a higher chance of losing because the home team has more support of winning.” Thus, the term “Home field advantage” at here is meaning as the singer Han Lei is competing in this show on his home field which perceived advantage. It is because the competitor would feel more confident at the place that is familiar to them mentally. Competitor would rather choose familiar place than other unfamiliar place. This is an advantage for competitor spiritually. There was a word spread of champion of second season would be the mainland singer. Under the shadow of this suspicion, GEM still goes on.
GEM Tang’s career moves well since participating in the show “I'm a singer 2”. But many reports claimed that she is pretentious and being spoiled. And most people think that she doesn’t feel grateful of what she is possessing now. Nevertheless, her manager Dan kept a poor attitude, bad news keep followed. Despite her amazing vocals, people will think that she just wanted to earn the RMB, which make people hate her more. |
