Danwei TV 4: Super Girl FrenzyPosted by Jeremy Goldkorn, April 7, 2006 2:49 PM
 Attacked by frenzied Super Girls fans Danwei TV 4 is about the Super Girls TV show. Chao Nu, the abbreviation of Chao Ji Nu Sheng (超级女声) or Super Voice Girls, is the name of a televised singing competition similar to American Idol, produced and broadcast by Hunan Province Satellite Television Station. In 2005, the second year of the program, Super Girls became a runaway TV hit, captivating young women across the nation, making stars of the finalists and reaping windfall profits for Hunan TV. This video summarizes last year's show and includes interviews with frenzied fans of runner up Zhou Bichang. You can watch the video in different formats on Revver.com, Archive.org, or Youtube.com. Otherwise click through below the jump to watch it right here. Additional notes: This year Sougou Super Girls will join the competition for Chinese viewers alongside Hunan TV's Super Girl, CCTV's China Dream (梦想中国), and Shanghai Oriental Satellite TV's My Shape, My Show (我型我秀). All of these highly similar shows are starting this spring. More on Supergirls: Sexy Beijing is now on its own website: check the latest episodes at www.sexybeijing.tv |

Jeremy, what about a spotlight on the helmet?
Good idea, when we film in the dark!
Just thought you might like to know that this episode of Danwei TV is being used in my final oral presentation tomorrow for Chinese, which I've decided to do all about the super girls. The links in the other posts were very helpful.
