Social phobia usually manifests in two ways when facing crowds: either sudden hyperactivity and mania caused by nervousness, or instant shutdown and drowsiness until fainting. Chu Yu happens to be ...
Chapter 15
[Ding Dong, congratulations to host Chu Yu for gaining 30 points of audience favorability and 10 points of Wei Shao's favorability. Currently, the total audience favorability is 50, and the total judges favorability is 10. Please keep up the good work, host!]
Chu Yu was even more confused.
Oh my god, are all the people in this world obsessed with looks?
He was so dizzy that his legs could hardly stand. After hearing the last sentence of the electronic announcement, he stared blankly at the judges' table.
Just saying that it was radio gymnastics was an insult to the humorous dance of radio gymnastics, and some judges still had a good impression of him?
Not even any vocal instructor, but the dance instructor with the always sour expression?
The system was also stunned by the sudden popularity votes and favorability, and was just as confused as Chu Yu: "How many votes can we win?"
Fully booked.
"We don't have to camp at the overpass anymore?"
It seems so.
Reality is so magical, even more magical than the plot of novels.
There were 100 people in the audience, and Chu Yu received 100 votes. All the audience members who were laughing so hard chose to cheer for him, as a way of giving him feedback after entertaining the public.
Wei Shao, whose favorability among the remaining judges had soared, could not, due to his identity as a mentor, vote for the abstract dance he had just watched, but that did not stop him from smiling happily.
Especially during the self-introduction session later, he smiled even more happily after learning that Chu Yu had chosen Class F, which he was in charge of, without looking back.
Wei Shao had no good feelings about the show in the first place, and he did not sign the contract voluntarily. Instead, the agency took the contract secretly without telling him because they were greedy for the high salary offered by the program team. He was the last one to know the news, and in the end he was forced to take the position.
He knew some of the shady dealings in the circle. Many entertainment companies had already spent money to buy debut spots for their main trainees long before the program was exposed. There were a total of eleven debut spots, and ten of them were occupied by well-known trainees. They even divided the future rankings according to the money invested. The mentors also had scripts in their hands, and they knew exactly which trainee had someone behind him.
Wei Shao really hates this kind of capitalist program that is completely unfair and only superficial, but he can't resist. He is just a dance teacher with a certain reputation in the circle, and he can't afford the sky-high penalty for breach of contract. To put it bluntly, he is just a worker full of resentment.
So he was on pins and needles sitting in the judges' seat, listening to a few old guys exchanging polite words with each other and pretending to exaggerate and praise the contestants who had already bought debut spots. He was too lazy to open his mouth to join in. Going to work was like going to a grave, and there were few workers who didn't feel uncomfortable. Not to mention that Chu Yu was always going crazy, in fact, he also wanted to go crazy.
Then Chu Yu appeared, showing off with a cheerful and open-minded attitude, and coming up with new tricks. She was so fresh and unworldly that she remained untainted by the mud. She brought him the first pure happiness in this hypocritical and cunning night, and also dispelled a lot of the haze in his heart that had been weighed down by work.
How come happiness is not worth his ten points of favorability!
Facing those contestants with high popularity but low ability, he did not vote at all, which was a resistance to the program team; facing the desperate Chu Yu, he was furious and had a good impression of him, which was a reward for the happiness he brought to him.
"I want to ask Chu Yu." Ji Fengzhu crossed his hands and rested them on his chin, thinking, "Have you ever studied vocal music before?"
Uncle Sunflower's class has begun! Now is the time for random questions!
In contrast to the exciting, abstract, and quick-talking voice, Chu Yu wore a serene expression, and slowly and steadily picked up the microphone and spoke:
“…I studied for two years.”
He is a pure-blooded amateur, how good can his strength be? Instead of talking about his training time according to his original body's resume and getting slapped in the face in the end, it is better to be honest with his actual situation.
Ji Fengzhu nodded, as if Chu Yu’s answer was within his expectations.
The only thing that was not right was the twitching of the corners of his mouth after he heard the voice on the radio.
"Yeah, I can tell... You have a great voice and a natural ability to control your technique. With practice, you'll easily achieve success in singing, don't you understand?"
Uncle Little Sunflower has highlighted the key points in class! Now it's time for Dad to give us some chicken soup!
Chu Yu was completely unaware that the instructors in front of him had heard all of his crazy, rambling voice. He picked up the microphone slowly and cautiously: "...Thank you, teacher."
Young people like Ling Wei and Wei Shao couldn't hold back their expressions and pretend that nothing had happened, their shoulders shaking more violently than each other.
Ji Fengzhu took a deep breath and told himself to calm down.
Since there are talented singers, there are naturally talented madmen as well. It is normal for these two talents to be combined in one person.
Uncle Little Sunflower...
"stop!"
Chu Yu was stunned, not knowing who he was talking to.
"Okay kid, wait a moment and we'll discuss the rating..."
Ji Fengzhu failed. He had been singing for more than 20 years and had never broken his voice in front of the camera. But this time, thanks to Chu Yu, he broke his voice in the middle of speaking.
In fact, the result had already been unilaterally decided by Chu Yu. This socially anxious but playful kid in front of him was very self-aware. He had blocked his own path to advancement when he chose his class.
There is a rule in the rating system: the class grade chosen by oneself is the upper limit of the first rating. Even if the judges give him an evaluation other than F, Chu Yu can only stay in Class F in the end.
But unlike the mentors, Chu Yu’s way of thinking is different. Rather than saying that he is forced to F, it is better to say that he enjoys F.
When the class division results were finally announced, Wei Shao even winked at him. Perhaps because his face had changed from working for so long, he looked a bit malicious.
"Welcome to my class. I will teach you how to dance well."
Chu Yu pursed her lips.
[Little Sunflower's class is about to start, I want to skip it.]
Wei Shao: “…”
This old guy really doesn't give people face.
After returning to his seat, the director's camera cut in specially and gave him a super close-up of his face, which scared Chu Yu so much that he froze like a human stone, afraid that the slightest movement would make a cracking sound.
But that very resistant face still does not affect its photogenic effect because of nervousness. This ultra-clear, close-up and multi-angle lens actually highlights Chu Yu's advantages in appearance: superior bone structure, high eyebrows and deep eyes, and the degree of facial folding is outstanding in the entire circle, so that it looks beautiful in 360 degrees without dead angles when photographed.
At this moment, Chu Yu's deep doubts complement the beauty that was being broadcast live to the audience in front of the camera.
He was still immersed in the euphoria of having become rich overnight, but after that, he felt something was wrong:
[How on earth do I deserve these 100 votes? Are they really just attracted by my face?]
After finishing the task, he still couldn't figure it out, so he simply gave up thinking about it and touched the handsome face of the man who thought he was a hero.
[Forget it, forget it. I'll buy insurance for it some other day.]
The audience in the distance burst into laughter. He didn't understand what was happening and glanced towards the stage. It would have been better if he hadn't looked up. When he looked up, he found that it seemed that all the trainees in the contestant seats were looking at him.
A complex, hesitant, mixed, and unblinking gaze.
The singing and dancing show was still going on in front of the stage, but judging by the content revealed by those unanimous and focused gazes, Chu Yu felt that in their eyes, she was more beautiful than the stage.
But he couldn't think of the reason, because too much attention was focused on him and he almost couldn't breathe.
The system sensed the strangeness in his body's reaction and immediately, like a parent waiting for a baby at the finish line while teaching him to walk, loudly cheered Chu Yu on: "Host, don't be nervous, they are all cabbages and carrots!"
Chu Yu felt that he was about to be shot into a sieve by the gazes of these terrifying cabbages and ferocious carrots. He wondered if the noise he made while alive was too loud, and he wanted to die for a while to hide away. However, he searched for a way in vain, and in the end he could only lower his head, close his eyes, and silently recite the Great Compassion Mantra, striving to achieve the selfless state of unity between man and Buddha.
There were so many eyes focused on him that it affected his breathing.
"Hey, buddy." A hand patted his stiff arm. He opened his eyes stiffly and found that the person calling him was his neighbor from Class A who sat in front of him. He had handsome eyebrows and dyed brown hair, and his smile was even more energetic than Jing Yan's.
Chu Yu suffers from mild face blindness due to his social anxiety and tendency to daydream. He cannot recognize people unless they are too ugly.
But he recognized that smile that was so bright that it seemed to want to cause chaos in the world. It belonged to the guy who took advantage of the chaos in the practice room to brag about himself, "My heart started pounding when I saw you. You are the eighth man I have fallen in love with this year."
Bang, brother.
He didn't dare to speak or move, and could only nod slightly under the dense gazes of the people around him. Because the loudspeaker above his head was temporarily out of service, the illusion of aloofness appeared on his face. Bang! Brother, who has never been stingy with his praise, sighed:
"Dude, your face is so handsome no matter how you look at it!"
The system looked defensive: "Be careful, I feel like he wants to pick you up."
However, before Chu Yu could react, a cold snort suddenly came from the silent left side, revealing three parts of coldness, four parts of ridicule, and five parts of indifference: "Heh."
...I forgot there was an exiled guy with sunglasses next to me.
The system raised an eyebrow: "He offends you! He is mocking you!"
Chu Yu blinked, feeling that he had been crushed by the heavy hammer of life today, becoming very soft, elastic and tender. He was spineless and only felt cowardly. So he turned around and glanced at Fu Hansong as soft as cotton and ignored him.
Just after they looked at each other for two seconds, Chu Yu heard a ding-dong sound in his head.
[Ding Dong, character Fu Hansong's favorability towards you has increased by +5. The total favorability of all trainees is currently 25. Please keep up the good work, host!]
…
Brother, I won’t call anyone else brother anymore. You are my only source of energy.
I have never seen such a useless favorability that requires it to drop from the sky on its own initiative.
Chu Yu added new earthy and exciting songs to the nighttime EMO playlist in her mind, and sighed, "Brother Sunglasses is really quite unique."
In just one night, "Top Producer" became the most popular trending search since its release.
#初喻绝美精神態#
#Chu Yu, are they all attracted to my face?#
Soon, the edited recording of the first episode was launched on major platforms. Not long after the broadcast, hot search terms related to "Chu Yu" exploded again, rising at a rocket speed, successfully squeezing out Wei Ziyu to become the most discussed contestant in the entire Dinglian.
There is only one secret: go crazy and kill yourself, then entertain everyone by being bad.
