Rules
In the early auditions, hopeful contestants are screened by preliminary panels to be selected for singing talent. The audition process is long and highly competitive, with hundreds of candidates eliminated. Once they make it to the show, the contestants face different tasks every week that involve singing; the worst-performing individual is eliminated. The six finalists no longer face elimination, but are graded on their performance each week. The one who excels wins the grand prize: one million NT dollars and a studio recording contract.

Famous quotes containing the word rules:
“Children can’t make their own rules and no child is happy without them. The great need of the young is for authority that protects them against the consequences of their own primitive passions and their lack of experience, that provides with guides for everyday behavior and that builds some solid ground they can stand on for the future.”
—Leontine Young (20th century)
“The only rules comedy can tolerate are those of taste, and the only limitations those of libel.”
—James Thurber (1894–1961)
“Unfortunately, we cannot rely solely on employers seeing that it is in their self-interest to change the workplace. Since the benefits of family-friendly policies are long-term, they may not be immediately visible or quantifiable; companies tend to look for success in the bottom line. On a deeper level, we are asking those in power to change the rules by which they themselves succeeded and with which they identify.”
—Anne C. Weisberg (20th century)
