Chapter 113 Airport

The recording of the third public performance started on January 29th and ended on February 5th. At this point, the 49-day fifth recording system was completed.

On February 6, the trainees packed their luggage and boarded the bus to leave this strange yet familiar film and television base.

Lu Yao sat by the window, and the scenery outside kept passing by: the dormitory where they lived, the studio where they filmed, the cafeteria where they ate, and the grove where they had adventures together at midnight.

It was clearly just a short experience, but it left a deep impression on everyone.

They had already driven quite far away, but Lu Yao could still see several people looking back, trying to find familiar buildings through the gaps.

"It's actually over." Cong An murmured to himself, his tone still vague, as if he couldn't believe it.

The 49 days of filming felt so painful and long, and now they are over.

They actually left and never came back.

Zhu Xiangming was also looking out the window. Outside was the unfamiliar streets of Yang City.

Similar to Beijing, winter in the north is always filled with bleak trees, bare and leafless. When the wind blows, it leaves only a desolate memory.

This took Zhu Xiangming, who was born in the south, a long time to adapt, and he still couldn't get used to the bleakness of the northern winter.

From the body to the soul, it gives people a feeling of coldness.

At this moment, sitting on the bus that symbolizes separation, even though the air-conditioning in the bus is constantly heating up, he seems to be able to feel the cold wind whistling outside the window, through the gaps in the window, along his hands, and blowing onto his arms and body.

The side of his body that was near the window was numb from the cold.

When the bus turned the corner, there was no trace of the photography base anymore. Wu Anyi turned his head and a look of loneliness appeared on his face.

These forty-nine days are like a microcosm of their training career over the past four years. Everything is so similar, yet different in every way.

The bus heading to the airport was exceptionally quiet. Today's flight was very early, so everyone got up very early. At this moment, in the slightly shaking vehicle, everyone couldn't help but feel sleepy and fell asleep.

Lu Yao took out his mobile phone, put on headphones, and started watching the sixth episode of "The Fifth Age" which was launched yesterday.

The Fifth Era program is already more than halfway through its broadcast. With the traffic generated by the first two episodes, the third and fourth generations, and the promotion of the sports meet and concerts in the last two episodes, the popularity of the Fifth Era program has continued to rise. Now, when Lu Yao opens Lvyang Film and Television, the homepage banner is a promotion for the sixth episode of the Fifth Era program.

The huge silhouettes of Lu Yao and Qiu Yuge on the poster are very clear, and behind them are pairs of the second public performance groups.

Click on it, and you will find that even on Monday morning, there are still tens of thousands of people watching online at the same time.

Lu Yao took a look at the number of views of the program. The sixth episode, which was just aired last night, still had a little less number of views, but the previous episodes had already had hundreds of millions of views. It seemed that the sixth episode would have exceeded 100 million views in the next two days.

Following the shaking of the bus, Lu Yao adjusted himself to a comfortable position and focused his attention on the show.

Based on the number of votes for personal popularity in the first public performance, the team with higher votes can choose their own order of appearance first in the second public performance.

Therefore, the group of Lu Yao and Qiu Yuge, who had the highest number of votes, chose the fifth position in this second public performance.

Lu Yao himself didn't care which order he appeared on stage, but based on his understanding of everyone during this period, everyone would prefer to appear in the middle position, so that they would not be as nervous as being the first to appear, nor would they feel pressured to appear at the end.

So after the rules came out, he asked Qiu Yuge for his opinion in fifth place, and sure enough, the other party readily agreed.

The first group to appear was Cong An and Luo Wenbo's group.

Lu Yao remembers that the songs sung by this group were very orthodox men's group songs.

The original song has singing, dancing, and rap, and is quite popular for its powerful dance.

This kind of song is not bad, but in the second public performance system, it is at a clear disadvantage.

The two-person stage format of the second public performance cannot support the style of this song. There are too few people, and the stage will appear too empty.

After all, the original song and dance were designed for a large group of thirteen people.

On the stage, the sword dance of thirteen people naturally has a shocking power.

From this perspective, Cong An and his partner's choice of this song naturally detracted points.

At the same time, although An and Luo Wenbo are suitable for this song in terms of positioning and style, they are not suitable in terms of appearance.

The interpretation of this song by An's passionate style and Luo Wenbo's cool style gives completely different feelings.

When they each perform the song, they each give it a good performance.

But many times, the result of 1+1 is not equal to 2, it may be greater than or less than 2.

The combination of the two of them in their interpretation of this song is less than 2.

So after An and Luo Wenbo finished selecting their songs, Lu Yao knew that these two people would not perform well this time.

After watching their performance backstage during the second public performance, Lu Yao was even more certain of his judgment.

The audience in the barrage does not know the final result of the second public performance yet, but apart from the meaningless comments from fans that flashed across the screen and the occasional sporadic comments, it can be seen that the presentation of this stage was not as good as everyone expected.

Inconsistency in style will only lead to division on the stage.

The first group's performance ended, and then the second group, Zhu Xiangming and Qiao Sinian's group, began.

The combination of the two of them can be said to be very compatible. In terms of appearance, they have the same tall figure, which can give people a comfortable visual feeling. At the same time, the combination of Zhu Xiangming's singing and Qiao Sinian's dancing is also a very classic model in stage presentation.

If there is excellent design, it can present a very stunning stage.

But this time, the two of them still fell short on stage.

Good design is hard to come by, and the audience has seen too many ordinary collaborations.

Not only did the audience not feel surprised, but even they themselves, after years of cooperation, unknowingly developed many habits with each other.

These habits are beneficial and can greatly reduce their communication costs and make them more comfortable when practicing.

But these habits also have disadvantages. Excessive tacit understanding and habits make them stay in their comfort zone and lack tension. However, this tension is an important factor in ensuring excitement in competition programs.

So even though there were no mistakes or omissions in the two people's performance this time, because of this, everything was bland and a bit boring.

In the video, after Zhu Xiangming and Qiao Sinian finished their performance and received comments from the mentors invited by the program team, they bowed and left the stage.

The screen showed the reactions of the trainees backstage. Amid the applause and cheers from others, Lu Yao, with a calm face, seemed a little out of place.

Someone in the barrage noticed this.

"Who is Lu Yao showing his sour face to?"

But then, more barrages of comments came out.

"You're not smiling, but you have a sour face."

"There's no law that says you have to smile while watching the stage."

"What's there to applaud for such a lame performance?"

The show was still playing, and soon new comments emerged, changing to a new topic.

The third group to appear is Wanyuanzhou and Wuhai.

As soon as the two figures appeared, the barrage of comments was filled with the words "Zhou Hai".

Lu Yao's eyes quickly caught every comment.

Starting from the practice clip, the style of the barrage is already very different from the previous two groups.

Unlike the previous barrage that focused more on the video screen and stage discussion, the barrage of the Wanyuanzhou group at this moment focused more on themselves.

The existence of a CP can bring great blessings to the trainees themselves. Although Cong'an and Luo Wenbo also have a CP, their familiarity and tacit understanding in front of the camera are far less than Wanyuanzhou and Wu Hai. Therefore, in terms of the number of CP fans, Luo Cong is far behind Zhou Hai.

The blessing of this CP can bring charm to boring people, add color to a boring stage, and make ordinary songs moving.

It has nothing to do with the performer's level, but rather the listeners and the audience have invested their emotions in it in advance.

They are not watching the stage, nor listening to the songs, but using the stage and the songs to write stories for the performers on the stage.

At this moment, the audience is no longer a bystander, but a member of the creators. Emotions surge in their hearts, stirring their thoughts through their imagination.

A work that can touch people's hearts is a good work.

On the stage of Wanyuanzhou and Wuhai, the performance is not the stage itself, but themselves.

They themselves are the works in the minds of the audience.

Moreover, those who can become popular CPs already have a certain degree of compatibility in terms of appearance. Therefore, even if some viewers do not know this CP or do not understand this CP, their appearance alone can make them "fall in love with it."

This is also the reason why matchmaking is so popular.

Wanyuanzhou and Wuhai, apart from other things, are indeed compatible in appearance.

So when they work in pairs, they are naturally guaranteed a certain number of votes.

Their choice to cooperate was a very rational decision.

Lu Yao lowered his eyes slightly. After the performances of Wanyuanzhou and Wuhai ended, the picture froze on their ending pose where they smiled at each other, and he took a screenshot.

The show continued, and the fourth group to appear was Yin Hongxue and Cang Zizhen.

A pure RAP song.

Lu Yao raised his eyes and glanced at Yin Hongxue's back in the front row. He still remembered the experience of watching a movie with her on the rooftop, and Yin Hongxue's sudden smile one day.

During that time, Yin Hongxue was obviously in trouble. He walked into a maze, wandered around and around, but couldn't find the exit.

However, Yin Hongxue in the show looked extremely free and easy. She and Cang Zizhen laughed loudly in the practice room, cheered for each other's lyrics, and praised each other for their wonderful performances.

Then, when practicing dancing, they tacitly turned on the power saving mode, and after an accidental eye contact, they suddenly danced with big movements at the same time.

Yin Hongxue, who is cold on the outside but warm on the inside, and Cang Zizhen, who is warm on the outside but cold on the inside, clearly have completely different personalities, but they are surprisingly compatible.

Just like their stage, Yin Hongxue poured all his passion into it, and Cang Zizhen watched coldly from the sidelines. The collision of cold and heat, the back and forth of lyrics, were questions and answers, arguments, and whispers.

Why didn’t they have CP fans before?

A question arose in Lu Yao's mind.

But before Lu Yao could think more, the shaking bus suddenly stopped, and through the headphones, he could hear faint shouting from outside.

Lu Yao paused the program and looked outside.

Arrived at the airport.

Li Qiang and Xu Bin shouted loudly in the carriage, waking the trainees from their sleep, and urged everyone to pack their things and prepare to get off the bus.

Before we could pack our things, the bus was already packed with people.

When they saw the unfamiliar bus, some fans ran over immediately. After seeing the familiar figures through the window, they screamed loudly, attracting more fans.

Suddenly, countless fans rushed over here.

Li Qiang took a look and felt that something was wrong.

With so many people, can they still get off the bus?

Instead of urging the trainees to pack up, Li Qiang told everyone to draw the curtains, wear masks, and wait in the car, and then he got out of the car to contact the airport staff.

As soon as Li Qiang showed up, the fans outside cheered and became more convinced that the trainees were in the car. They took out their phones to contact other fans.

After a while, through the gap in the window, Lu Yao saw a dense crowd of people running towards him not far away.

The popularity of the program means a rapid expansion in the number of fans, and also means an increase in the number of offline fans.

They were wearing colorful clothes, carrying headlamps, holding cameras or mobile phones, and rushing towards the small bus.

At this moment, this bus is the only visible island on the sea.

The waves hit the rocks, splashing water.

Lu Yao frowned.

The cheers outside were so loud that they reached his ears clearly through the car and headphones.

Xu Bin, who stayed in the car, was stunned by the scene.

No, where do so many people come from?

Qiu Yuge's mind was still confused when he woke up from his sleep, but he became completely awake after seeing this scene.

After exchanging a look with Zhu Xiangming, who was standing next to them with a look of shock on his face, they both put on their masks silently.

No, their fifth generation has become famous?

There weren’t so many people at the airport last time!

Xu Bin stood at the car door, looking through the glass at the girls outside who were desperately trying to squeeze against the door, and couldn't help shivering.

If this gets out, a layer of skin will be peeled off, right?

After waiting for a long time, Li Qiang finally arrived with the airport security guards.

The scene of many fans seeing off the fifth generation, which is unfamiliar to the fifth generation, has long been commonplace to the airport staff.

After all, the number of "top stars" passing through the airport every month is too many to be counted on one hand.

This kind of scene in the fifth generation is child's play now.

The airport security guards skillfully squeezed through the excited fans and arrived at the bus door, clearing a path for the trainees. Although the fans behind them kept holding out their phones and squeezing in through the gap between the security guards, their heavy bodies remained motionless, giving people a full sense of security.

The trainees were fully armed with masks and got off the bus one by one under the leadership of Xu Bin. The fans outside were even more excited when they saw the trainees appear. The security guards were not prepared in time and the passage was shaken. Lu Jianian and others who were walking in front were squeezed together.

"What are you doing!!!" Li Qiang immediately spoke loudly to maintain order, and pushed those who squeezed forward to the back without hesitation.

Chaos, quite a chaos.

The crowd, curses and collisions were squeezed into this small space. The people inside couldn't get out, and the people outside... the people outside didn't want to come in either.

In short, after more than half an hour of trouble, the trainees finally passed the security check safely.

After passing security check, there are still people following me, but the number has been greatly reduced compared to outside, and it has become a level that everyone is accustomed to.

After arriving at the terminal safely, Li Qiang and Xu Bin still had fear on their faces.

There are too many people.

What is going on?

——It became popular.

Although they had already vaguely realized this from the ever-increasing number of fans and likes on comments on Weibo, the trainees still felt very dazed when they actually saw so many people at the airport.

They shoot in the studio step by step every day, and have only a vague idea of ​​their growing popularity. It is hard not to be shocked when they face these crazy fans.

But unlike Li Qiang and Xu Bin who were scared, most of the trainees looked excited. They wore masks with only their eyes wide open. They did not dare to look around, for fear of meeting the eyes of fans who were taking pictures. They only dared to send messages frantically on their phones to express their excitement.

Of course, this is only limited to a few people who have put on anti-peep film.

Just like Cang Zizhen, who is now holding his mobile phone and happily sending messages to Luo Wenbo.

As for those who didn't put up anti-peeping films, even careless people like Zhu Xiangming and Cong'an dared not take out their mobile phones for fear that something they shouldn't be photographed would be captured.

With lowered brows and eyes, they sat on the chairs, no longer relaxed as before. Facing the groups of fans surrounding them with cameras in hand, they looked less like idols and more like suspects on trial in a courtroom.

The only one who seemed relatively relaxed was probably Lu Yao.

Maybe it’s not that easy, but rather that he doesn’t take the fans’ cameras seriously.

There is neither the nervousness of being photographed nor the burden of maintaining an image.

The low pressure he exuded as he sat there was enough to make fans who tried to get close to him retreat in unison, leaving a vacuum zone around him.

Finally, after a long wait, the boarding gate opened and the trainees were rescued from the fans' cameras and entered a more relaxing cabin.

This is what Li Qiang thought before he saw a group of fans also checking their tickets.

But why were there so many fans on the plane this time? So many that Li Qiang suspected that most of the tickets for this flight were bought by fans.

Is this a bit too scary?

The only thing to blame is that the fifth generation has been operating for many years and has no experience in dealing with the "red". Usually, there are only 20 to 30 people picking up and dropping off at the airport, and there are even fewer people following the plane. This time when I bought the plane ticket, I wanted to pay more attention after years of habit, but I really had no experience and didn't notice many things.

Now I can only hold my nose and bear it, and pray in my heart that no accidents will happen.

Fortunately, the cabin is a public area after all. Even if those who are on the plane want to stand in the aisle to take pictures, the flight attendants and other passengers will take the initiative to calm them down.

After the plane took off, the chaotic scene finally improved and everyone was able to calm down.

Bai You turned around and was about to ask Lu Yao how he felt, but found that the other person's face was covered with a mask and his eyes were closed, making him look like he was asleep.

But the eyeballs under the eyelids kept shaking, as if he was not sleeping very well.

Bai You immediately breathed softly.

It was the first time he saw Lu Yao sleeping on a plane. It seemed that the recording of the three public performances during this period had made Lu Yao very tired.

If you can rest more now, then rest more.

The trainees on the plane were isolated from the world, and the pictures and videos taken by the fans and their followers were uploaded to the Internet as soon as possible.

That's all old news from eight hundred years ago... And those are not black material at all. It's the fans of the cultivation system who have no taste and can't appreciate Lu Yao's type, so they think it's black material. But that little bit of stuff is nothing in the entire entertainment industry, and many fans of the show buy into his tricks, which attracted a large number of fans.

I think it started with the sports meet and concert. I didn't pay attention to the training system before, but I saw the photos and videos of the sports meet on the homepage. It was really a big deal and very annoying, but that trainee was very handsome.

Then there was the concert stage. This time, not to mention Weibo, I even saw it on my Moments. It was really popular.
