Chapter 36 Then you three vote!

"I just happened to have some medicine ready."

Shen Xingzhi's voice was still light, but his hands moved decisively. He generously distributed the brown paper bags on the side to the other four guests.

Shen Xingzhi's unprecedented initiative immediately attracted the attention of the entire audience. Even Yan Baiwei, after taking the paper bag handed over by Shen Xingzhi, showed a smile like the heroine in an idol drama on her face, and curiously lowered her head to look through the contents of the paper bag.

"Thank you, Captain! Brother Xingzhi, you are such a thoughtful captain! I have to give you a thumbs up!"

Looking at Shen Xingzhi's unexpectedly friendly gesture, Ren Limeng reacted quickly and started to praise him directly. No matter what Shen Xingzhi gave them, it was always an improvement. Apart from music, any subtle enthusiasm of Shen Xingzhi was quite rare. In front of the camera, as a team member, she naturally would not be stingy with her praise for him.

In particular, because everyone was too surprised by Shen Xingzhi's gift-giving behavior, and they all silently lowered their heads to look through the paper bag, as a professional host, she could not let the scene cool down.

"Yes, Brother Xingzhi, you've made such thorough preparations! Li Meng and I are so lucky to be on your team!"

"Brother Xingzhi, this anti-itch gel is really effective! Bai Wei and I regretted forgetting to bring it yesterday. This imported one is hard to find. Thank you so much!"

Xu Chichi and Li Qingzi couldn't help but praise Shen Xingzhi, and even Yan Baiwei quietly took out the anti-itch gel from the bag, tore open the package and started applying it.

Shen Xingzhi, are you giving me sweet dates?

For some reason, Ren Limeng stared at Shen Xingzhi. She felt that Shen Xingzhi's behavior was still a little abnormal. Apart from giving him a slap in the face and a sweet date, Ren Limeng couldn't think of a more possible reason.

"As I should. I put some extra plasters. This plaster is very effective in relieving muscle soreness. You can apply a few more if you are tired from training."

Chen Xingzhi looked at Ren Limeng who was looking down at the paper bag, and noticed that her arms were still smooth and nothing was stuck on them.

After hearing Chen Xingzhi's explanation, Ren Limeng paused with her right hand that had picked up the anti-itch gel. She peeled off the top layer of the paper bag, which contained anti-mosquito, anti-itch, heat-relieving, throat-soothing and other medicines. The bottom of the paper bag was covered with layers of plasters. No wonder she felt the paper bag was quite heavy when she just took it. Shen Xingzhi's cowhide bag looked inconspicuous, but it was full of practical goods.

This time she really wanted to give him a thumbs up. When she woke up today, she found that her waist and legs were a little sore, and her wrists were also sore. She was about to buy some ointment at noon!

Last night she thought she was just not used to the high-intensity training, but when she woke up today, Ren Limeng faced the reality. She had to "accept her age". Her body no longer had the youthful vigor of her teens, and unlimited energy was no longer a word that could describe her.

Now, after a day of serious and hard training, fatigue and soreness are inevitable. This travel variety show is a long-term battle that tests perseverance.

However, she has experienced all kinds of storms over the years, and minor discomforts are completely within her tolerance range. After sighing in her heart, Ren Limeng will not reduce the training she should do.

Ren Limeng had planned to go to the drugstore to buy some ointment in the morning, but Xu Chizhi's breakfast recording was not going smoothly amid the crowds of people in the store. After several retakes and supplementary shoots, they were afraid of being late and went straight to the training room.

Regardless of whether it was a sweet date or not, Shen Xingzhi finally did a good thing by showing goodwill to everyone this time!

Ren Limeng happily tore open the plaster package and directly applied the brown rectangular plasters to both wrists. The instant comfortable feeling made her feel like she could play the drums for another ten hours!

Xu Chichi standing by also chose to apply a plaster first. The physical fatigue brought by banggu training was no joke. She had been a beauty blogger for many years, and the biggest amount of exercise she did every day was going downstairs to pick up express deliveries with a cart. The last time she had such a sweaty training session yesterday afternoon was before the physical examination for graduation from college. She really couldn't bear it.

Shen Xingzhi's "sweet date strategy" seems to be very effective. The word segmentation of "Song of Heaven and Earth" is smoother than expected, of course there are some minor twists and turns.

Everyone first sang "Song of Heaven and Earth" separately. Based on the live singing effect and timbre characteristics, Shen Xingzhi and vocal assistant teacher Hu assigned the first few opening sentences to Ren Limeng, followed by Li Qingzi and Xu Chichi who sang the rest of the main song. Yan Baiwei sang the transition part and the first part of the chorus, followed by a fusion banggu performance. The part after the climax was sung by Shen Xingzhi.

"Brother Xingzhi, isn't there a drumming segment in Li Meng's middle scene? Why don't you let her take over after Chi Chi? It will be easier to film."

Yan Baiwei lowered her voice to put forward her suggestion, and her objection to the participle did not seem so blunt, but everyone present could hear that Yan Baiwei had a different idea about participle from Shen Xingzhi.

The division of sections in "Chen Xing" is mainly based on highlighting strengths and avoiding weaknesses. The parts sung by everyone seem to be similar, which seems fair, but the first singer is obviously more eye-catching than the singers in the middle. Yan Baiwei thought about her own positioning when she saw the lyrics.

She had no objection to Chen Xingzhi singing the climax. There was no professional singer in the team except Chen Xingzhi, and there was indeed no one else who could perform the eight-degree rise in pitch from the bass in the chorus to the climax. Yan Baiwei just wanted to stand out, not to make a fool of herself. She smiled, and her face was full of goodwill.

Don't hit a smiling person. Last night's advice from her agency and agent finally forced Yan Baiwei to change her attitude.

Shen Xingzhi didn't say anything. His eyes glanced at Ren Limeng on the far left, and happened to meet Ren Limeng's gaze.

Ren Limeng turned her head to look at Yan Baiwei, "If... we play the drums right after singing, wouldn't the rhythm be too tight? Baiwei, you and Qingzi will have very few shots in the climax."

As Ren Limeng spoke, she lowered her head to look at the lyrics paper in her hand. Her dark eyes were thoughtful under her slightly furrowed brows, and she was analyzing the pros and cons of various possibilities as if she had no emotion at all.

"...The climax is the banggu's home turf, so we just need to cooperate with you!"

Yan Baiwei laughed with gritted teeth, but her face remained harmonious. She had not expected that Chen Xingzhi would directly arrange the banggu performance at the climax, allowing Xu Chichi and Ren Limeng to take advantage of it for nothing.

Yan Baiwei was very dissatisfied yesterday, but her agent stopped her and told her to sober up sternly. It was her fault for giving up the opportunity to learn the special banggu. Even if she regretted giving it to someone else, Yan Baiwei had to grit her teeth and swallow her dissatisfaction.

She is just one of the young actresses that the company is promoting, but Chen Xingzhi is the pillar of Hanxing. Everyone knows the tricks of the entertainment industry of praising the powerful and trampling on the weak.

"How about you sing it separately and we see how it goes?"

Just as Shen Xingzhi was about to speak, Li Qingzi took the initiative to make a suggestion, and the emotion in her eyes was similar to but different from Ren Limeng's.

"Alright, then you three can vote!"

Yan Baiwei readily agreed. As if remembering something, she continued naturally, "We'll have a secret ballot later. It's just a small matter, so don't let it upset everyone!"

It's just a small matter? Why make such a fuss about it?

The more you try to cover up, the more obvious it becomes.

Ren Limeng complained inwardly for a moment, but in front of the camera, her smile remained friendly. She turned her eyes to the professional whose presence was minimal. Vocal assistant teacher Hu had tried hard to become a background board in the corner. "Don't bother with that..."

"Bai Wei's point makes sense. We've just formed a team, so our rhythms might not be exactly the same. That's normal. Brother Xingzhi, do you think this is okay?"

Li Qingzi has been observing Chen Xingzhi. As an artist from the same company, she knows better than anyone else that their agent Xu Jiao specifically called Chen Xingzhi for a long time yesterday, using both soft and hard tactics to remind him to be careful in everything.

Even if it was Chen Xingzhi, he was still Hanxing's Chen Xingzhi, it was impossible for him to completely ignore it.

Chen Xingzhi raised his eyebrows slightly, and he looked at Ren Limeng as if inadvertently, as if expecting Ren Limeng's reaction at this moment. Ren Limeng lowered her eyes and avoided Chen Xingzhi's sight.

She couldn’t understand Shen Xingzhi, what did his eyes mean at this moment?

Many thoughts flashed through Ren Limeng's mind, but she rejected them one by one. After a few seconds of thinking, she decided to wait and see.

Even Yan Baiwei deliberately kept smiling today. She didn't want to attract too much attention at this time.

If we vote, Li Qingzi obviously made this suggestion for Yan Baiwei, so she should vote for Yan Baiwei. Xu Chichi spends every day with her, so she will most likely choose her. Why did Li Qingzi and Yan Baiwei agree with each other?

Could it be that... they persuaded Shen Xingzhi?

Ren Limeng didn't particularly care which part she sang. The segmentation made by Chen Xingzhi and the vocal assistant had taken everyone into consideration. Except for the climax that no one could sing, the rest of the parts were not that different and the distribution was fair.

However, a personality that is too humble and easy-going is not only unpopular in reality shows, but also makes it easier for others to take advantage of it.

"Then put it this way!"

Shen Xingzhi didn't say anything. He nodded slightly, as if he just turned his head inadvertently, and seemed to express his agreement silently. Yan Baiwei took over Li Qingzi's words with a smile and directly finalized the vote.

Ren Limeng observed her surroundings calmly, and she couldn't help but wonder: it was just a short sleep, but everyone seemed to have changed.

Yesterday’s unpleasantness was like a dream, which was turned over in an instant. But in front of the screen today, everyone’s performance is eye-catching, hiding their own dark and difficult-to-conceal thoughts. Is this the magic of the camera in the entertainment industry?

Ren Limeng and Yan Baiwei sang two excerpts respectively. Even though the result was not so important, Ren Limeng still tried her best at this moment. Compared with the segmentation, she was more curious about the direction of the next voting.

If both she and Yan Baiwei showed a tendency to strive for the first paragraph, then what?

What is Yan Baiwei planning? What is Shen Xingzhi's attitude?

Sometimes, the problems reflected in secret ballots can be even more damaging to the harmony. Yan Baiwei has set up the stage, but what is she trying to cover up?

Ren Limeng felt an undercurrent surging.

Everyone dutifully prepared three identical voting papers, and Shen Xingzhi, Xu Chichi, and Li Qingzi ticked their votes and put them into the tissue box that served as the ballot box.
