The next day, when the director team came to work, they played the video footage shot last night.
As a result, several people saw at a glance that the fifteen boys in Lin Yanran's group were not sleeping late at night, but were sitting in a row facing each other, taking a bath with a look of enjoyment on their faces.
Several assistant directors looked at each other with question marks on their faces.
Did they take the wrong medicine?
The director burst into laughter after watching it.
He pointed at the foot soaking bucket and said proudly, "I told you at the time that this foot soaking bucket was good, but you didn't believe me. No, no, no, young people are starting to use it."
After saying that, he rubbed his hands together with anticipation, "The same model I ordered the other day just arrived today. I'll try it when I get home."
The assistant director quietly rolled his eyes, too lazy to talk about the foot bath bucket with the director, who had recently become fascinated with health preservation after watching Lin Yanran explain the Chinese medicine foot bath bag, so he changed the subject directly.
The director didn't respond. He just smiled and held the thermos cup, watching the replay of last night slowly.
Then he told the staff, "In tonight's trailer, please edit the clips of Yan Ran's group into it."
The assistant director lowered his head and casually asked, "The foot soaking scene?"
The director shook his head and paused the video.
"No, cut this part and remember to mosaic it for me."
So at eight o'clock that evening, the official Weibo account and video website of "Super Idol" directly launched the trailer for the latest episode.
"Super Idol" is the first domestic trainee audition program. After the first three episodes were aired, the popularity of the program soared from not even in the top ten of the variety show rankings in the beginning to the third most popular one because of its novel format and high quality.
After accumulating a whole week's worth of material, the editor still put a lot of effort into editing.
In order to highlight the efforts of the trainees and some of the highlights without revealing any spoilers, the editing of the shots was extremely tricky.
For example, when Pei Luo was choosing Qiao Ye, he deliberately left the final result in suspense.
When the trainees were dancing, only their backs were photographed, as we were afraid that everyone would know who were the specific members of each team.
These little tricks may be deceptive to passers-by, but to fans, they are not secrets at all.
With so many fans squatting on the front lines every day, fans in the fan circle have already known the grouping situation clearly.
[Editor, your little tricks can't be hidden from me]
[Qiao Ye, Xuan Yihan and others are in Pei Luo's group, Zhang Yang and Li Jin are in Han Zhe's group, Ji Shuai and Lu Xiaomeng are in Yan Ran's group... (The comment was folded because it was too long)]
The barrage directly revealed the names of each group of people, giving non-star-chasing passers-by an advance spoiler.
However, although the grouping situation that the editor tried hard to conceal was decoded by fans, there were still two shots in the trailer that defended the dignity of the program team, and because they were difficult to decode, they directly captured the hearts of all the audience.
One is the picture of the super mentor who appeared on the stage at the end.
In the trailer, which was originally very short, the editor spent a full six seconds to emphasize this super mentor, which shows how high the status of this super mentor is and how big his status is.
The audience watched the trainees' incredulous expressions in the video and the host's extremely mysterious introduction. Although the super mentor was covered with mosaics and his voice was muted, it still couldn't stop the audience from wanting to uncover the identity.
[When I saw the preview before, I thought you were joking, but I didn’t expect there would be a super mentor]
[The production crew is amazing, they kept it a secret, there were so many people on the front line every day but no one filmed it!!]
[Although the sisters are mosaiced and can't be seen clearly, why do I feel that the super mentor looks a bit like Gu Siye? ]
[Gu Siye? ? No way! Isn't he abroad? ]
【Just came back last week】
【Wow~】
[With your good words, if the program team really invites my idol, I will immediately kneel down and call him daddy]
[Although I feel that this exaggeration is quite in line with Gu Siye’s status, but... it’s not easy for him to invite]
[A believer is willing to be a vegetarian for three days and prays online that the super mentor is Gu Siye]
Although many people tend to believe that this super mentor is Gu Siye, because the program editor has first-class mosaic skills, and no one has found out Gu Siye’s specific schedule, they put this aside for the time being.
However, although the audience gave up on digging into the super mentor, their enthusiasm remained and their attention was directly attracted by another shot in the trailer.
This shot is different from the simple and rough horse-beating shot of Super Mentor. The editor did not beat the person involved, but gave a partial close-up.
In the blurry shot, a young man in white appeared in the picture.
The camera moved from bottom to top, first capturing a snapshot of his dance movements below his jaw, and then immediately switched the camera to a quick close-up of his beautiful eyes.
I saw him slightly sideways, his eyes were arrogant and cold under his thick and long eyelashes, like deep cold waves.
But the corners of these cold and beautiful eyes are turned up like a small hook, which makes people feel itchy.
The total length of this shot is less than one second, it is just a small piece of footage that flashes by, and it is also very blurry!
But it was this blurry and inconspicuous shot that caught everyone's attention and became an instant hit.
【Ahhhhh, I can handle this little brother in white!!】
[This atmosphere is amazing! ! ]
[My brother killed me! I want to marry him! ]
[Oh my god, this look, how can it be so pure and lustful? I love it so much]
[I call you husband directly]
[I need to know the name of this trainee in one minute! ]
This close-up was so beautiful that someone quickly took a screenshot of it.
Everyone was discussing it on Weibo and forums, but because the scheming editor did not show the real face, passers-by began to tag the fans of each trainee to claim the person, trying to dig him out.
Seeing that this shot was so popular, many fans came to blindly claim it at first. Among them, the fans of Xuan Yihan, who thought she was the most beautiful trainee, were the most high-profile.
However, when everyone compared them carefully, they found that there was no connection at all.
Xuan Yihan's eyes were not that lively at all, and the shape of her eyes was far different from others, so she was directly eliminated.
Later, everyone expanded the scope and even checked all the trainees, but no one dared to say with certainty that it was their brother.
The trainees were unable to pull themselves together, so someone thought of the mentors.
But after comparing, there was still no suitable candidate, and someone finally thought of someone they had always forgotten.
[Sisters, I have a bold idea... Could this person... be Yan Ran? ]
[We searched through everyone and only he was left. And to be honest, he is quite handsome.]
As soon as this idea came out, it was immediately rejected.
[What bullshit are you talking about? Didn't you see the little brother in white dancing? To do that move so well, it takes at least three years of training to achieve the level of a trainee. Yan Ran is a waste, a rubbish singer who can't even dance. I hope you know that.]
[Can Yanran fans stop flattering themselves? Does your giegie have this level of professionalism? ]
[If Yanran could dance, even a sow could climb a tree]
[I don’t want to hear the name Yan Ran, let him get out of my sight, okay, don’t defile Brother Baiyi]
Someone had just proposed it when he was attacked by the disgusted black fans online and he shut down his microphone and dared not to mention it again.
No one was willing to believe that this person would be Lin Yanran. After all, in everyone's eyes, he could be kicked out of the candidate list just based on his dancing ability.
Later, when everyone realized they couldn't figure out who this person was, the anxious audience went straight to the program team's Weibo account.
[In? One minute, the name of the little brother in white! ]
[Believe it or not, if you don’t tell me who it is right away, Dad won’t watch the show tomorrow]
[Editor, I advise you to be smart and quickly edit the complete clip for me, otherwise you will lose your chicken leg]
However, no matter how people asked, the official Weibo account kept pretending to be stupid and cute, and replied with all kinds of QWQ, QAQ, TAT.
Seeing that the hard approach didn't work, everyone started trying the soft approach.
[Wow, official blogger, I'll give you a kiss, a hug, and a lift up high, please give me a happy ball QWQ]
[It’s ok to not give a name, just give me a frontal shot, I like this handsome guy so much, I can’t sleep tonight QAQ]
[I advise you to tell me who the guy in white is right away, otherwise I might kneel down and beg you TAT]
However, the official Weibo’s reply is still the three-piece set of QWQ, QAQ, and TAT.
The audience was almost driven crazy by the program crew.
The official blog's announcement immediately boosted the popularity of the first performance. Early the next morning, with a full twelve hours left before the performance, the number of reservations in the official live broadcast room had reached seven figures.
On the day of the performance, Lin Yanran arrived at the program crew very early.
Although the program team said before that they would provide makeup and choreography for the trainees, it was just an assistance.
Therefore, the trainees’ costumes, props, and even makeup and hairstyles that they wear on the stage actually require the instructors to take care of them.
The other three mentors are all fine. They just need to express their ideas and their teams can help them take care of these small things.
But Lin Yanran is different. He currently only has Yingying as his assistant, and he can’t bear to let her work so hard.
Therefore, he personally made the costumes and styling of their group.
The design of the costumes was not difficult, as he had communicated with the program crew two days ago and had prepared them in advance.
However, as for makeup, since the makeup artists only came today, he could only communicate with them on the spot and tell them his ideas and positioning of each contestant on the stage.
It took him a lot of time to do all this one by one, and his throat became a little sore from talking.
In addition, he had hardly had a good night's sleep in the past few days. After finishing styling the contestants, he was very tired, so he went to take a nap on the sofa in his lounge.
This was the scene that Gu Siye saw when he came to find Lin Yanran.
When his eyes swept across the faint dark circles under Lin Yanran's eyes, Gu Siye felt a little reluctant.
He had always shown his energetic and positive side to his team of trainees and encouraged them, but now he was hiding his hard work and fatigue secretly without letting anyone know.
Yingying saw Gu Siye and was about to say hello, but she saw him raise his index finger and make a gesture to silence her.
Gu Siye walked lightly to Lin Yanran's side, glanced around, and didn't find any blanket that could be used to cover him, so he took off his coat and covered him with it.
The man's movements were gentle and delicate. The moment he bent down and lowered his head, from Yingying's misaligned perspective, it was as if he had kissed Lin Yanran's face.
Ahhhhhhhhh.
Yingying resisted the urge to ship the couple and said thank you to Gu Siye using lip language.
She was so busy just now that she even forgot to cover Brother Yanran with a small blanket...
One hour before the performance started, all the trainees were called backstage.
The advantage of the time and energy Lin Yanran had previously spent on their makeup was now fully demonstrated.
Everyone in their group is several levels more attractive than usual, and their costumes are much better looking than those of other groups.
When many trainees saw them again, they couldn't help but look at their group a few more times.
Especially the trainees from Pei Luo’s group, they were so envious of Lin Yanran’s group’s makeup today.
"We are all people who stay up late to train, but how come everyone in your group looks so good? And their skin is in great condition too."
The person who was speaking was Li Feiye from Pei Luo's group. They had recently eaten the snacks sent by their mentor Pei Luo, and as a result, they got irritated before the performance, and many of them had acne on their faces.
My skin condition is already bad enough from staying up late, and now I have a pimple on my face that even concealer can’t cover. It’s really terrible.
Xia Xingxing glanced at the pimples on the other person's face and said proudly, "Because everyone in our group soaks their feet."
Hearing Xia Xingxing's nonsensical answer, Li Fei looked as if he had seen a ghost and was full of disbelief.
When Lin Yanran woke up, she found that she had an extra piece of clothing on her body.
After asking, Yingying found out that Gu Siye had been there.
He looked at the time and found that the show was about to start, so he hurriedly held the clothes in his hands and wanted to return them to Gu Siye.
However, he had just walked a few steps when he was called back to their group by the staff, asking him, as a mentor, to cheer for the trainees in his group.
Lin Yanran stood in front of the fifteen people and asked them directly, "Are you nervous?"
Many people nodded, and many even showed their nervousness on their faces.
After all, people will be eliminated on the spot in today's performance, and the trainees in their group will most likely be packed up and sent home as soon as the performance is over.
When thinking about this result, the trainees who do not have much stage experience will inevitably feel concerned.
Lu Xiaomeng spoke her mind directly, "Actually, I think this might be our last stage."
His tone was not depressed, and he seemed to have already accepted this fact calmly.
But when looking at the stage, his eyes couldn't help but tremble slightly.
It is the reluctance and attachment to the stage, and the compromise and unwillingness to accept fate.
Others in the group could relate.
But there is no way, today's competition system requires live audience voting.
Although they were very confident about their performance, their group's popularity was relatively low, and they were competing against the extremely popular Pei Luo group, so they were naturally at a disadvantage in terms of votes.
Lin Yanran patted Lu Xiaomeng on the shoulder, and then gave each trainee a hug.
He did not encourage them as he did before, but simply stated a fact to them.
"Then treat it as our last performance."
“When we can’t change others, we must insist on ourselves.”
"We have worked hard for three days. Tonight, let's put everything aside and enjoy the stage."
As soon as Lin Yanran finished speaking, the 500 audience members took their seats.
As the stage manager counted down on the clapboard, the first performance of "Super Idol" officially began.
