Lin Long transmigrated into the only surviving dragon cub on Dragon Island, spoiled to the heavens by a line of dragon dads one through six, developing a habit of loving gold even more than beautie...
It's not just like that, it really is the face of his dragon cub.
If Andre still had some doubts at the moment of the confrontation, then now, when he saw the other five dragons all extremely excited and smiling foolishly at Lin Long on the field in unison, Andre suddenly understood something.
After all, Andre was not really stupid, he just never thought about it in this way. The moment he saw Lin Long, all the details emerged in his mind.
For example, He Long, Will, and Ed, the three dragons who usually don't like to hang out together, suddenly got together.
For example, all three dragons expressed their affection for a certain human being and gave him full marks without hesitation.
For example, Zhao Yan and Norton both noticed drastic changes in their attitudes towards scoring a certain player, especially Norton, who gave full marks right from the start.
If all this wasn't because of that number two contestant, the dragon cub they so carefully protected under their wings, what else could it be?
Silver Dragon Andre felt like he was going crazy, and he wished he could go back a few days and slap himself hard!
The reason wasn't just because he only recognized his own dragon cub at the last moment, but also because out of a whole bunch of six dragons, this 'obstinate' fool was the only one who got a low score. And it was only one low score!!
What would his dragon cubs think of him? Would they abandon him as their dragon father?! He even felt like none of the cubs on the field were looking at him anymore, only at the other five dragons! Damn it!
When had Andre, the Silver Dragon, ever been at such a disadvantage in a cub fight? Back on Dragon Island, the cubs would always come to him to coax him, but now that things were like this, would they ignore him anymore?
When Andre thought of this possibility, he felt like he was going crazy.
But the host David didn't understand the hint from his boss Andre. He thought that he had been introducing Lin Long for too long and had annoyed his boss. Frightened, he hurriedly ended Lin Long's introduction and asked Lin Long and others to go to the back and bring up other contestants for introduction.
Andre, who wanted to hint to David below to extend Lin Long's introduction time and bring the topic to him, almost wanted to spit blood.
He'd been focusing on his low scores in the first two elimination rounds, so why did he suddenly stop asking during this crucial round? Wasn't he waiting for the next question to come to him so he could immediately correct his attitude and get his kid's attention back?!
Andrei's urge to vomit blood wasn't just a matter of vomiting blood. He even had the urge to fire the host and take on the show himself!
It's a pity that the segment of taking off the masks after the third round of eliminations is not expected to be very long, and it mainly involves the top ten who have the chance to enter the finals. The other fifty contestants will mostly be briefly mentioned in groups of ten.
This time design is also intentional. The simple and incomplete introduction can allow the audience to pay more attention to the last three rounds of eliminations.
As mentioned at the beginning, the first three rounds of eliminations are a warm-up to eliminate some contestants with poor adaptability and bad mentality. The last three rounds of eliminations are the real fierce competition for all-round artists.
Therefore, Andre did not have the chance to watch his cub for long. After a while, all the contestants left the stage. The next time they appeared would be the fourth round of eliminations tomorrow, which would be a more exciting elimination round.
However, what no one knew was that on the night when the masks were removed after the third round of eliminations, a loud noise that lasted for a long time occurred in some kind of British castle, sounding no less than an earthquake.
The pattern of the loud noise was somewhat similar to the one that occurred in Xiayuan for an hour before, but the difference was that the loud noise here continued until late at night.
Fortunately, the castle is located halfway up the mountain. Except for the servants in the castle, no one noticed anything unusual. But even so, what happened that night was enough to make the servants talk about it. Some even said that they thought the mountain was going to collapse, so they hurriedly got up and tried to escape.
But after that night, no servant mentioned the matter again. It was obvious that they had all received a lot of hush money.
All I know is that at the All-Round Artist Competition, the six big bosses of the conglomerates who were not originally required to appear all showed up.
Still, each of them looked a little bruised and swollen. Although the scars were shallow, they could not hide the traces of the fight. It looked as if these six bosses of the world's top conglomerates had a group fight last night!
Of course, host David wouldn't dare say such a thing. Who would dare ask the SD Group's boss if he'd gotten into a fight with someone yesterday? And the targets of that fight were none other than the five big bosses of BD, GD, TD, ED, and RD?
David bet that if he dared to ask this question, he would not only have to pack up and go home, but he might not even see the sun tomorrow.
Therefore, the host David tried hard to keep his eyes away from the slightly bruised faces of the many big bosses in front of him, and instead brought his gaze back to the current issue, and said tactfully:
"Boss, according to the rules, the judges for the first three elimination rounds cannot overlap with the judges for the last three rounds. Boss, you see, what you mean is..."
The meaning of David's words was very clear. According to the rules, Andre and the other six people should not appear on the field now. After all, the last three rounds of eliminations are no longer their home ground. The ten judges of the last three rounds of eliminations have already come here one after another.
Of course Andre knew this. After all, he set the rules and had always followed this model. He also knew that this judging model was difficult to change, and that different judges would ensure greater fairness.
Moreover, the last three elimination matches are the real beginning of the competition. In addition to the fact that the contestants can take off their masks, it is also because of the selection of judges. Almost 70% of the judges in the last three rounds are top professionals in the industry. They will test the contestants from the most professional and demanding perspectives.
Of course, Andre was not worried about his own cubs. Dragon fathers were full of confidence in their cubs.
But there was one thing: Andre had the opportunity to interact with his cub after the match. The low scores in the previous three rounds had completely fueled Andre's desire to survive as a dragon father. He planned to reinforce him in the last three elimination rounds and restore his cub's impression of him!
In other words, although Andre and his team will be present as reinforcements, they will not participate in the judges' scoring.
Of course, such a request can be met. After all, it is the request of their big boss. Moreover, the appearance of their big boss with such a face in front of the camera is also a great tool to increase the ratings.
As for the other five dragons, they would certainly not miss any opportunity to let other dragons get ahead, so this time, it was not just Andre who came back, but a series of six dragons came together.
The competition quickly added another six reinforcement seats behind the ten judges' seats on the field to provide a place for Andre and others to perform.
At the same time, the K Group's car also arrived at the competition venue. Due to the limited number of judges present, although Lin Long's mother Jiang Yi wanted to come to the scene, she was ultimately unable to come and could only stay at home at the headquarters to continue watching the live broadcast.
Therefore, the only two people who came to the stadium were Lin Linji and Brand.
Brand had just arrived at the scene and said he needed to go to the bathroom because he had not yet fully adapted to the dizziness of modern transportation. Lin Linji understood and told Brand the location of the meeting place later and told him to come directly over later.
Brand nodded in understanding.
During the time he had been in Country S, Brand, who had basically recovered completely, was madly absorbing all the information around him at an extremely fast speed and getting used to the survival mode of the human world, especially as an adult.
Work processing, extremely rapid changes in finance and economics, various interpersonal networks, etc.
Thanks to the dragon's photographic memory and learning ability, Brand was able to digest this huge amount of information in a short period of time. As for interpersonal relationships, it was the easiest for Brand.
After all, no matter what, Brand is the king of dragons. He has extraordinary aura and pressure, and he knows how to exchange interests. The dragon's ability to make money allows Brand to thrive in the business world.
This feeling has filled the business tycoons who have come into contact with Brand recently with nothing but fear. Most of them have had contact with the bosses of the world's seven top financial groups.
The boss of K Group is the most normal and easiest to approach among them, but the other six people outside K Group are more difficult and harder to approach than each other, but their ability to create wealth makes them amazed.
But the Brand in front of him seemed to be a combination of all of them. Not only was his ability to create wealth amazing, but he was also extremely smooth in handling interpersonal relationships. He seemed to be able to clearly grasp their preferences and remember everything they had said before.
In a fleeting moment, they'd forgotten they were rivals and were locked in a lively, detailed conversation. Only after the conversation ended did they suddenly snap back to reality. They'd barely known Brand for three days, and yet he'd already revealed nearly everything about them? And they'd even discovered they were unusually trusting and inclined towards Brand.
This fact has made many business leaders feel frightened after realizing it belatedly.
It can be said that during the time when Lin Long was participating in the first three rounds of eliminations, the name Brand had unknowingly spread in the business community.
From the very beginning, he was the biggest investor of K Group, but now he is only remembered by the name "Brand". His background is no longer the focus of many bigwigs. What they care about is the extremely terrifying ability that Brand himself possesses!
This change in cognition took only about a week. They even vaguely felt that the world's seven top financial groups might undergo major structural changes due to the emergence of Brand.
Of course, these are just speculations from many bigwigs, who hope to get a piece of the pie.
But in fact, they knew nothing about the relationship between the world's seven major financial groups, and even less about what role Brand would play in it.
Of course, it was a long time before they found out.
At this moment, in the eyes of many people outside, Brand is just an ordinary person with good looks. Usually, people with good looks will subconsciously attribute them to models, celebrities, etc.
At this moment, Brand, who had just walked out of the bathroom, was faced with such a situation. It seemed that the staff of the competition mistook Brand for someone else and stopped him immediately, saying hurriedly:
"Are you one of those actors here to assist the contestants with their acting? Why are you still here? I was just wondering why we're not even here. It looks like we don't have enough people. Why don't you come over here quickly? The fourth elimination round is about to begin."
"I think you've got the wrong person. I'm not an actor. I'm..."
Brand refused, and just here, two male actors were rushing over beside him, and they couldn't help chatting with each other while they were on their way.
"Hey, who do you want to be paired with later? There are so many high-quality female artists participating this year. If we choose a good one, maybe our popularity will rise as well. Maybe we can even form a couple?"
"I want to work with the diva Yaya. She's the most popular, which would be good for me. Or actress Vina would be fine. I think we could have a good scene with her. What about you?"
"I want to choose all your choices, but this time I prefer contestant number two, Lin Long. She's so beautiful, she's practically stunning. I want to get in touch with her. It would be great if I could get her contact information after the competition..."
The two male actors chatted in a low voice and spoke quickly, so it was generally impossible to pay attention to what they were talking about.
However, the dragons have very good five senses, and Brand, as the king, is the most outstanding among them.
It can be said that Brand heard the entire conversation between the two people clearly, especially the last sentence containing the name "Lin Long".
So… Brand stopped in his tracks, turned around, and smiled brilliantly at the competition staff.
"Excuse me? I was just joking with you. I'm indeed an actor here to co-star with you, but I didn't mean to be late. I really don't know the way. Can you take me there?"
Most people can guess what the content of the fourth round of eliminations will be. So far, after assessing modeling, singing, and cooking skills, the next thing to be assessed should be the actors' expertise and acting skills.
The reality is indeed the same as many contestants speculated. The assessment content of the fourth elimination round is indeed acting skills, and it is a very challenging item for acting skills: on-the-spot acting.
"Hello everyone, we meet again. I'm the host, David. I don't know how well you all rested yesterday, but from now on, you all need to cheer up."
"As you can see, 'Extemporaneous Acting' is the content of our fourth round of assessment. We currently have sixty contestants. We will use the same roulette drawing format as the first round. Each group of ten people will compete, for a total of six groups. All the assessment questions are unknown. You will know the answer the moment you take the stage."
"Now, please spin our turntable. I'll call out the names of the ten contestants whose numbers are due. Please proceed directly to the stage. The rest of the contestants, please wait in the waiting area."
The competition format for this round is similar to the previous ones. The only difference is that because it is a live performance, in order to prevent the later contestants from having a reference, the contestants in the waiting area cannot see the performances of the contestants on the stage. They don’t even know who the judges are. Everything will be announced after the last group of performances.
The elimination format for the last three rounds is obviously much stricter than the first three rounds. At a glance, the judges are almost all professionals. Only three of the judges score from the perspective of market partners and give scores based on market value.
Among these three judges, one is actually the representative of K Group, one of the top seven financial groups in the world!
This "Global All-Round Artist Competition" has attracted the participation of all seven major financial groups in the world. Such a grand event is expected to put the All-Round Artist Competition on the headlines again tomorrow.
Of course, the appearance of the K Group was not surprising to the six dragons sitting in the reinforcement seats at the back. If there was anyone who was a little curious, it was only Andre, Norton and Zhao Yan.
Although the six dragons had a fierce fight yesterday, they still exchanged basic information.
For example, their dragon king, Brand still exists; for example, there is news that the earth dragon clan, the culprit that caused the collapse of Dragon Island, may still exist; for example, the head of the Lin family of the K Group is the real family of their dragon cub's current body, and Lin Linji is the real father of their dragon cub's human body, including the K Group, which can barely be regarded as property under the protection of their king, etc.
Therefore, before the contestants came on stage, Andre, Norton and Zhao Yan squinted their eyes and took a good look at Lin Linji in the front row.
Of course Lin Linji noticed such a naked and unconcealed look, but he didn't know that the three were actually potential enemies. He was surprised and subconsciously nodded to the side, saying hello politely.
He Long, Will, and Ed, who knew everything, just watched intently, pretending to know nothing. You know, the competition for the cub is brutal, and any advantage gained is an advantage. They wouldn't be so stupid as to leak the information to the other side!
But why is Lin Linji the only one here? Where's their king? Normally, would he also be here, sitting on the judging panel?
Thinking of this, Tree Dragon Ed, who was sitting behind Lin Linji, lowered his voice and asked about Brand's actions.
When asked this question, Lin Linji said he was not sure. He did come to the scene with their king, Brand.
But Brand disappeared after going to the bathroom. He originally thought that their king was lost or had something to worry about. When he was about to look for him, he received a message from Brand, telling him not to worry about him because he had other things to do.
There was no other way. Lin Linji sat on the judges' seat alone. It was not that Lin Linji was worried about Brand. With Brand's strength, it was not his turn to worry. He was just a little curious about where Brand had gone.
However, it didn't take long for Lin Linji and the six dragon fathers to find out where their king, Brand, had gone.
At this moment, a group of temporary acting partners appeared on the field. They were all handsome young male actors. There were ten of them in total. Not long after they appeared on the stage, they attracted the exclamations of many young women on the field. They almost guessed what the "on-the-spot acting" would be about.
Moreover, among these ten, it seems that there are two or three well-known male actors. Not long after they appeared on the stage, many audiences recognized them and called out their names.
But it didn't take long before most of the audience's attention turned to the extra actor at the very edge, position number 10, and they were all stunned at the same time.
I saw a man with a very good physique and very decent dress standing at the number ten position on the side.
His slightly long black hair was gently draped, and his pair of golden eyes were slightly closed, with a cold boyish air, but at the same time, a mature and wise masculine charm, making him full of mysterious and powerful charm, but because of his cold breath, he also brought out a bit of abstinence.
Such an outstanding man is beyond words. Not to mention women, even men can't help but marvel at him, and even stare at him in amazement. Especially with such a unique and mysterious temperament, his face is also very good, so good that it seems as if God himself created him, and it is almost impossible to find fault with him!
Who else could this man be but their king, Brand? Even Lin Linji and the six dragons hadn't expected their king to sneak onto the field and become a temporary partner for a contestant. They were stunned for a long time before they could react.
At this moment, a whistle sounded on the field, and the ten players drawn by the first round of the roulette wheel came on the field.
On the big screen at the top of the arena, there are ten small screens playing simultaneously, showing the ten contestants, the numbers of the temporary male actors to be paired with them, and the topics of the on-the-spot performances.
But when the ten contestants presented the topics they drew to the live camera, everyone suddenly realized that the topic of the impromptu performances for all the contestants was the same, there was only one topic, all of them were - love at first sight.
This is really exciting. When all the contestants perform the same topic, you can tell at a glance who is better and who has a better partner. It's like a public execution.
But the contestants don't know this. Although ten contestants perform at the same time in a round, they are separated by "small houses" and cannot see each other.
Previously, the competition host had guided the contestants to different impromptu performance topics, causing the contestants to have no idea that they were all performing on the same topic.
Just a dozen seconds into the show, the gap between the contestants was immediately apparent. The difference between actors and non-actors is really huge.
The contestant who was an actor quickly started acting with the male actors on the stage.
As for the contestants who were not actors, some had no idea how to react, while others did react but it was indeed overly exaggerated and looked fake and unbearable to watch, even with a male actor leading the way.
Only a small part of them are worthy of attention and worth looking at.
However, the most eye-catching position is obviously the one on Brand's side. The contestant assigned to number 10 is also an actor, and a skilled actor who has performed in many plays.
As soon as he saw Brandyan in the room, he seemed stunned for a moment, but he quickly reacted and started to perform on the spot.
The actress performed very well, showing the expressions, actions and performances that girls should have when they meet someone they like.
Brand also performed very well. Although he didn't make any special reaction, he was very gentlemanly to the girls and could talk to them with a smile. It seemed that the atmosphere was very good. He was handsome and pleasing to the eye, and everyone's attention was immediately drawn to him.
This was the case in the following rounds. The contestants assigned to Brand's side all performed well, and even the non-acting contestants were able to give some outstanding performances.
As they watched, the audience seemed to understand something.
The contestants assigned to Brand's side are extremely lucky. Just for Brand's looks, who wouldn't be moved? Even if they don't have any acting skills, Brand can bring out this "love at first sight"!
The model in the fifth round just now, before Brand could say anything, her face turned red the moment she saw Brand, and she directly performed the real version of "love at first sight"!
Until the last ten contestants came out, I don’t know if the turntable was particularly fond of Lin Long, but every time the turntable drew lots, Lin Long would be the last one to appear.
She had no idea what was going to happen next. She and the other contestants took a letter from the staff, opened it, and saw a sign for Room 10 and a topic for an impromptu performance.
Are we going to perform 'love at first sight'? This really made Lin Long a little worried.
Her weakest point is the performance of love. After all, she has not experienced love much, so her acting is a bit fake, and it is a challenging love theme like "love at first sight".
Thinking of this, Lin Long became even more worried, but since it had come to this point, no matter how worried he was, he had to continue to act as expected.
However, when Lin Long prepared herself mentally and was pushed into the room, she was completely stunned. Looking at the strange yet familiar face in front of her, her mind exploded with a "boom" and her face turned red.
It wasn't because the extra actor in Room 10 was so handsome, but because, at this moment, the other person's face that looked exactly like 'Little Dede when he grew up' suddenly made Lin Long's mind ring with the words that Little Dede had said seriously while kissing her some time ago:
"Next time we meet, when you grow up, Little Dede will kiss you like this. You are already my Little Dede's dragon, you can't run away, understand?"
