Chapter 028 Second Performance Selection 2.0

After thinking clearly, Lu Wei cleared his mind and listened to the remaining three competition songs without any pressure or burden.

The eighth song is [your], and the dance and the song are full of the word "pure desire". The song is nice, but for her, managing her facial expressions is a difficult hurdle to overcome.

Take biting the lower lip for example. Others do it to seduce others, but she does it as if she has to lick the residue on her lips after eating fatty meat. Even detergent can't wash off the greasiness on her body.

The ninth song [Dream] has the feel of an interlude from a hot-blooded manga, and it’s really hard for a middle school-aged person to resist. Unfortunately, the dance is more like Audition.

Lu Wei wasn't sure if his teammates would choose it, but if it performed well, it would definitely be good. A man who doesn't indulge in immaturity is a waste of youth. Ultimately, the world will be saved by a magic apprentice who believes in light.

The tenth song is [Queen's Crown]. As the title suggests, this is a song that embodies women's consciousness.

Unfortunately, there are too many high notes, and many parts are beyond Lu Wei's vocal range. Even if you like it, you can only watch it.

After listening to the songs one after another, she could only say that the program team was very good at selecting songs. There was not a single bad song, and the original singers had all proved their excellence with their performances.

The music director can rest assured that he has played his due role and will not be labeled as a waste.

In addition to Lu Wei, the contestants who listened to all the competition songs also set several plans for themselves, including plan A, plan B, and plan C, based on rational analysis results.

Just wait for the order to convince teammates, or be persuaded by teammates.

Seeing the thoughtful expressions of the contestants, Lee Jae-hyun returned to the center of the stage with a smile. "All ten songs for this performance have been released. Have you found any songs you like?"

"have!!"

“Found it!!”

Everyone responded in a timely manner.

"Okay, we'll give you five minutes of discussion. Please finalize the repertoire for this round's team competition before the time is up." Lee Jae-hyun said, then walked off the stage according to procedure and waited quietly in a corner where the camera couldn't capture him.

Seeing this, the contestants gathered together quickly, not wasting a single moment of discussion time, for fear of making mistakes in communication with their teammates and not being able to choose the song they liked.

Lu Wei stood silently in the corner where he could hear the discussion, glancing at the other teams with bored eyes. His main goal was to be a spectator, unable to participate at all.

"Does anyone have any ideas or suggestions?" After saying this, Jin Nayan glanced at Lu Wei implicitly, hoping that she could offer some opinions so that she could have some say when dividing the parts.

Fortunately, Lu Wei didn’t get it at all, otherwise the emoticon “I’m so tired of laughing” would have reappeared on her face.

"I think [lovely] is very suitable. The song and dance are not very difficult. It will definitely take a lot of time to practice the two competition songs. If we choose difficult songs, the risk will be too great." Li Huimin seemed to be considering her teammates, but in fact she was expressing her selfish motives.

Han Xuanzhen silently rolled her eyes, wondering who couldn't hear it. For the sake of team harmony, she suppressed the urge to complain and said, "Since we're choosing the team competition piece first, we must consider the team's perspective first. Regardless of the difficulty level, [synthesis] will be more eye-catching."

"Indeed, the futuristic technological style of [synthesis] is very impactful, and the performance effect may be even better." Zhang Haixi came online to support Han Xuanzhen.

"Yeah, I also think [synthesis] is better." Jiang Shanxiao voted in favor, and the three troublemakers began to act in unison.

The team members who noticed the trend of forming a group curled their lips and expressed different opinions. Some preferred the girl crush style, while others preferred the pure style.

None of the songs that Lu Wei liked were in their plan, which almost made her doubt her own understanding. Don’t be too smart again.

The teammates' overly distinct characteristics make it particularly difficult to seek common ground while reserving differences.

When facing elimination, the second public performance becomes particularly important. If the song you choose suits you, you will naturally stand out from the team, even if you have to step on your teammates to get to the top.

Seeing that the discussion was almost over, Jin Nayan had to intervene: "Everyone has their reasons, but how can we win in the team competition? We must play to everyone's strengths..."

Jin Nayan left a meaningful remark and glanced at Lu Wei secretly, almost telling the team members to consider Lu Wei's ideas and maximize her advantages.

Their first performance wasn't so much about luck as it was about the support of their idols. The priority given to them in song selection was largely due to Lu Wei, who remained silent and content to play a supporting role.

Han Xuanzhen curled her lips in disdain after hearing this. What qualifications did they have to order Lu Wei around? His personal ranking was so high that he didn't need these minions to worry about him.

Others had similar thoughts, thinking that Kim Nayeon was meddling in other people's business. If Lu Wei had any ideas, he would naturally say them out loud. Why did he remain silent for such a long time? It seemed that he didn't care about the members or the results of the team's competition.

She has already achieved excellent personal results. Even if she is regarded as a beautiful waste by the audience in the future, there will still be a large number of people following her.

Instead of asking Lu Wei for his opinions and discovering his strengths, they should look for their own shining points.

The already shaky relationship between teammates became even more shattered after the individual votes were released.

Feeling the resentment and unfriendly gazes emanating from his teammates, Lu Wei raised his eyelids unhappily and scanned them forcefully from left to right.

Sometimes, living in this world... encountering so many abstract human beings... can be quite helpless. Lu Wei knew she had a difficult relationship with them, and keeping silent and letting them make the decision was the greatest respect she could offer.

So what other concessions are needed?

Where can we retreat to?

Han Xuanzhen and others were startled by Lu Wei and accidentally looked into her eyes. They were almost burned by the black flames in her pupils and their eyes began to dodge involuntarily.

I almost forgot that this person is the one who can turn around and leave in front of all the team members if he is not happy and does not listen to any explanation. He is not a softie who will endure humiliation just to fit in.

Although they did do something wrong during the rehearsal, Lu Wei didn't care about the overall situation at all, and the words "I don't want to care" were almost written on his face.

I was so blinded by my own desires that I failed to hide my rejection of her. Fortunately, the camera was a little far away, otherwise I would have been judged by the audience who did not know the truth.

The originally lively atmosphere suddenly became tense. Jin Nayan looked at Lu Wei apologetically. She thought the team members would change their minds because of the individual votes, but she didn't expect that a forced melon would never be sweet.

Lu Wei turned away her eyes helplessly, feeling as if she was the only one sober while everyone else was drunk.

The out-of-place situation is not hilarious at all.

"Let's vote, the minority must obey the majority." Kim Na-yeon was really helpless. After participating in the recording of the program, the team became more and more difficult to manage. The team members who used to be well-behaved and sensible seemed to have been possessed by another spirit.

"Okay." The other teams were almost done with their discussions. They had wasted too much time and could only make a decision this way.

"Raise your hands if you support [synthesis]."

"Raise your hands if you support [lovely]."

"Raise your hands if you support MIDI."

After several rounds of voting, Han Xuanzhen's trio, who were the first to successfully join a group, finally won and effortlessly set themselves the futuristic technological style [synthesis].

As long as the first five teams do not choose it, everyone will have a bright future.

The five-minute discussion time passed quickly, and Lee Jae-hyun returned to the stage with the microphone. "I think everyone has decided on their favorite songs. Now, please select the songs for this round of competition in order of group ranking from 1 to 10."

Kim Yoo-ri took the microphone from the staff and said without hesitation, "The song we want to choose for the team competition is: [Synthesis]."

As soon as these words were spoken, many contestants' expressions changed. Even if they couldn't choose their favorite songs in the team competition, they still wanted to fulfill their wishes in the personal song selection session.

Kim Yu-ri's group, CE, took first place in the first round of performances and was arguably the strongest competitor at this stage. They chose "Synthesis" for their second public performance, which naturally made the others hesitate.

Lu Wei glanced at his teammates who were discouraged again, and for the first time he began to explore their amazing train of thought.

Why do I feel like no one picked "synthesis"? Is it because they drank too much fake alcohol? It's not the alcohol that makes you drunk, it's you who makes you drunk?

Tsk...

A mortal like her really couldn't understand it.

Kim Nayeon breathed a sigh of relief. She had actually thought about the order of song selection, but the team members were too excited and completely immersed in it and became obsessed.

Fortunately, plan A was selected in advance, otherwise I would have prayed in my heart every time someone else chose it, and thinking about it over and over again had a great impact on my mentality.

After the first-place team had chosen, it was the turn of the second-place team, SPDE. Although Shen Baola was not the team leader, her teammates nominated her to represent the team because of her high ranking. "The song we would like to choose for the competition is: [Queen's Crown]."

You have good vision...

At this moment of exporting hot spots and selling traffic, SPDE has some considerations for being able to accurately select positive concept songs.

Qiao Zhizhi didn't comment on this. She did try to suggest singing a spirited song, but her teammates were too clear-headed, pointing out that the team needed sustained performance. Only when one plus one is greater than two can everyone benefit.

Fortunately, her personal ranking is not too far behind, so she still has a chance to fight for it.

When it came to selecting the songs for the competition, the director team didn't deliberately create a sense of tension. This kind of thing was easy to create by splicing together the materials collected earlier.

The microphone was passed around very quickly, and soon it reached the third member, Han Shuying, the center of the WINS group. She looked back at her teammates as if to confirm something, and after receiving their feedback, she said, "The song we want to choose is: 'Cat'."

Although this song is consistent with the public's perception of WINS, Lu Wei sensed something special from Han Shuying's brief hesitation.

Wonderful micro-expressions.

Perfect team mateship.
