Chapter 29
Meng Jiayu looked at the light boards with his name engraved on them and listened to the cheers of the fans, and he couldn't help but cry.
This is the stage he has longed for for a long time.
He finally waited for a group of people to come just for him.
Before the program team announced the rankings, they interviewed Meng Jiayu and asked him if he had anything he was afraid of.
He said that he was afraid that no fans would like him and that he would disappoint his agent's expectations.
Like Meng Jiayu and Han Yanci, they both feel insecure.
When the rankings were first made public, Meng Jiayu had no idea that he would be ranked first.
The talent show artists undergo closed training. Meng Jiayu often stays in the dance studio and recording studio and basically does not go online.
He had no idea that his Weibo followers had grown to over 2.8 million, and he had no idea that his personal search results had reached 610 million views.
He has the best statistics among the contestants of "GO! Chasing Dreams Stage".
"Okay, the one-minute voting time is up!" You Dian calculated the time.
Following the program flow, You Dian asked Hao Ziran: "Teacher Hao, this time Jia Yu combined rap with his own original songs. What do you think of his performance?"
Meng Jiayu had already started conceiving the song "Phoenix Nirvana" before joining "GO! Dream Stage", but he always felt that it lacked some meaning.
He never thought about adding rap into it.
It was rap instructor Hao Ziran who suggested to him to try adding rap elements.
As an idol and a candidate for the C position, Meng Jia is very likely to represent the overall strength of a group in the future.
Hao Ziran wasn't worried about Meng Jiayu's singing or dancing at all. Meng Jiayu might not be as good a dancer as Ao Lian and Han Yanci, but overall, she looked passable and didn't drag down the team's performance.
What Hao was more worried about was Meng Jiayu's rap.
Hao Ziran is also an outstanding graduate of the top music conservatory in the country. In fact, Meng Jiayu is his junior.
He previously asked Meng Jiayu why he didn't try rap, and Meng Jiayu said he was afraid he wouldn't sing well.
Hao Ziran asked Meng Jiayu to challenge himself more and try more to know whether he could do it well.
With Hao Ziran's encouragement, Meng Jiayu decided to add rap into his original songs.
During the practice of "Phoenix Nirvana", Hao Ziran gave Meng Jiayu a lot of help.
Hao Ziran raised the microphone and began his commentary: "I still remember when Jiayu sang the rap lyrics for the first time, he nervously asked me if I sang it badly. I told him, yes, because he didn't bring out the momentum he had when singing rap."
Hao Ziran paused, a pleased smile on his face. "But today, Jiayu's performance gave me a big surprise. She performed very well. I really like this stage. Keep working hard."
Meng Jiayu's heart almost jumped into his throat when Hao Ziran said the first half of his words, and he only breathed a sigh of relief when he heard the second half.
He bowed and apologized: "Thank you, teacher!"
Meng Jiayu's "Phoenix Nirvana" was the last program. The program team did not single out his votes, but directly put it in the ranking of all program votes.
"The show is almost over, and the final vote counts for all the shows have come out."
You Dian held the statistical results in his hand. He glanced at the top three rankings and smiled, "Please look at the big screen."
The live camera shifted from Youdian to the large screen on the stage. Watching the rising data on it, netizens became excited:
I've completely forgotten the previous voting results, but Meng Jia and this show should be in the top three.
Han Yanci's cover of "Records of the Old Times" is currently ranked first in votes. Is it possible for Meng Jiayu to surpass him?
[So excited! I bet Meng Jiayu will be first!]
I think Han Yanci's cover of "Records of the Old Times" and Meng Jiayu's cover of "Phoenix Nirvana" are both great! They both really stepped out of their comfort zones!
[Wow! Meng Jiayu's live audience votes have surpassed Han Yanci's! The online votes are almost there!]
[Wow! It's over! Meng Jiayu's online votes have surpassed Han Yanci's! He's in first place!]
[Holy crap, Meng Jiayu's online vote count is still rising! It's already 29 million votes!]
Except for Meng Jiayu's "Phoenix Nirvana", the votes for other programs have stopped increasing.
At the same time, Jiang Yi heard a "beep" in his mind, and Panda reported in real time that Meng Jiayu's popularity value had reached 38961015. In other words, Jiang Yi could live to be a hundred years old.
It’s settled.
Panda was completely relieved that his host's life span was settled.
As long as the host's artists are alive, she will not die.
Does that mean its KPI has been achieved?
What Panda didn't actually tell Jiang Yi was that it also had a mission, which was to keep its host alive and well, and to live to be over a hundred years old.
"hiss--"
When she saw the final result of the votes, Guan Qianxue finally understood what it meant to be in the C position with a huge gap.
First place: "Phoenix Nirvana": 7,323,386 (Note: 36,607,150 online votes; 2,445 live audience votes.)
Second place: "Records of the Past": 1,781,600 (Note: 8,900,000 online votes; 2,000 live audience votes.)
Third place: "One day before I die": 557,508 (Note: 2,780,460 online votes; 1,770 live audience votes.)
"One day before I die" is a singing and dancing song performed by Meng Jiayu, Ao Lian, Wu Yuanhang, Zhao Hanrun and Ying Wenshan.
Except for Ying Wenshan who ranked 27th, the other four were ranked 1234th in the first public ranking.
But the number of votes for this song is not at the same level as the first and second place.
Meng Jiayu never expected the number of votes to be so high, he felt it was unreal.
Another person who felt the same sense of unreality was Han Yanci. He never expected that he would be ranked second.
You Dian organized all the artists to stand in front of the stage and bow to the audience.
All the artists stood in a row, holding hands and bowing to the audience in the audience and the audience online.
The big screen on the stage displayed the four big words "Thank you!"
Immediately afterwards, a sky full of golden ribbons fell from above the stage, floating in all directions, floating on the heads, shoulders, and hearts of those dream chasers.
Meng Jiayu looked up at the sky full of golden ribbons, and couldn't help but reach out to take the golden ribbon, holding it tightly in his hand, with tears flashing in his eyes.
This scene was captured by netizens:
[Oh my god, Meng Jiayu's eyes are about to break! ]
[This is the opportunity he's been waiting for for years. This time, he finally stands on the stage!]
[God damn it! Wuwuwu my Meng Jiayu! Those who slander Meng Jiayu have no shame!]
[Damn it! When I think about this, I remember a video I saw before. Damn you, Pan Hongfang from Qufeng Entertainment!]
An interview video of Meng Jiayu when she was fifteen years old was dug up. Meng Jiayu was very innocent at that time. The more so, the more fans felt sorry for Meng Jiayu's experience.
Fans found out that the person in charge of Qufeng Entertainment is Pan Hongfang, and they spontaneously organized themselves to go to the official account of Qufeng Entertainment to curse him.
[You damn gay! Ahh ...
[He was so young at the time, how could you have the heart to do that to him? You pervert!]
[You even blocked him??? You have no shame, you're a fucking bitch, you'd better not let me see you! Otherwise I'll definitely throw a brick at him! Ahhhhh the more I think about it, the angrier I get, I really want to kill him!]
[If it weren't for you, he would have been famous a long time ago! It's all your fault, you old, ugly man!]
As soon as the first performance of "GO! Chasing Dreams on Stage" ended, Pan Hongfang was scolded by netizens and became a hot topic.
The incident of a male boss harassing an underage artist was dug up by netizens.
The Yaoxing Entertainment Mu Yangbo incident has not been resolved yet, and Yaoxing Chairman’s son Pan Hongfang has been involved in a sexual harassment scandal again.
Yaoxing Entertainment's reputation has continued to plummet.
Pan Hongyi has been in the circle for decades, and he certainly knows that these two incidents are aimed at Yaoxing.
There is no doubt that the Mu Yangbo incident was done by that old fox Liu Xiang!
Pan Hongyi has fired Mu Yangbo's agent Huang Da.
As for this harassment incident...
Pan Hongyi gritted his teeth and had some guesses in his mind.
Who else could it be?!
Apart from Jiang Yi, no one dares to go against Yao Xing so blatantly!
Pan Hongyi asked his secretary for a number so he could call Jiang Yi and talk to her.
No one in this world doesn't care about interests.
Jiang Yi answered the phone: "Hello, who is this?"
Pan Hongyi said in a deep voice: "It's me, I am Pan Hongyi."
Jiang Yi said "Oh" lightly and was not very surprised.
It was exactly what she expected.
Pan Hongyi suppressed his anger and said, "As the saying goes, when you're away from home, you rely on your friends. Mr. Jiang, how about we be friends?"
How could Jiang Yi not understand his subtext?
It's nothing more than wanting to make a big thing small and a small thing nothing.
Jiang Yi chuckled, "How could that be possible? You're Mr. Pan, a well-known figure in the entertainment industry. I'm afraid being friends with you will shorten my lifespan!"
Listening to the other party's playful words, Pan Hongyi understood that Jiang Yi was implicitly mocking him.
"Jiang Yi, what on earth do you want to do?" Pan Hongyi said fiercely, "We don't seem to have had any conflicts before, do you have to make it so embarrassing?"
Jiang Yi nodded: "Indeed, there is no conflict between you and me. But your son harassed my artist. This account must be remembered."
"Is it worth it to become an enemy of Yaoxing for an artist?" He didn't understand at all.
"I don't know if it's worth it, but I know your son is doomed."
Jiang Yi smiled cunningly, as if the whole situation was under her control.
Pan Hongyi's heart trembled with fear, and a sense of foreboding rose in his heart, "What do you mean? What do you mean it's over?!"
Jiang Yi curled his lips slightly, "Your son is not in the company now, right?"
Exposing the negative information is just the beginning.
What she wanted was that Pan Hongfang would never have a chance to turn things around.
