After the recording of the theme song's stage with 100 people was completed, it was their first performance.
Chen Yiming was so excited about this matter that he didn't sleep the whole night. The next day, he had two huge dark circles under his eyes, which were particularly abrupt on his handsome face. Luo Shixi was surprised when he saw it.
"What's the matter with you?" he asked.
"Excited," Chen Yiming yawned, "Aren't you excited at all?"
"It's okay." Luo Shixi sighed.
He hasn't had enough of his idle time yet, and it seems like he's about to start busy mode again.
When they arrived at the venue, they found out that the person who came today was not He Yu, but their rap instructor, Fasuo.
"Where's PD He?"
"Isn't Mr. He here today?"
"It's such a pity that I can't see my idol today."
Seeing the trainees' surprised looks, Fasuo explained, "Your PD He is unable to come due to some matters. I will announce the rules for today's first public performance."
When the trainees heard this, their attention was instantly drawn to the first public competition system, and everyone's face was filled with excitement.
A public stage!
That is a stage with audience, lights and choreography!
But at the same time, the first public stage is also a strict stage that does not allow for any mistakes, because your every move will be completely exposed to the audience. If you make a mistake, there is no chance to make up for it, and you may even be ridiculed online and nailed to the pillar of shame.
Everyone was excited and nervous.
Only Luo Shixi poked Chen Yiming's arm and said, "Tell me, where did Teacher He go?"
Chen Yiming's mind was not on this at all, and he said casually: "I don't know, but a first-line star like Mr. He must have a lot of announcements, so he must be busy with work."
"That's right." Luo Shixi nodded.
Fasuo was announcing the rules of the group battle on stage: "There are a total of nine songs this time. Each song is divided into two teams, with six people in each team. The teams that choose the same song will default to battle on the first public stage. Both teams will be voted on by Idol Creator on the spot, and the team with the higher number of votes will be deemed the winner."
"Each member of the top three groups in the winning group can receive 150,000, 100,000 and 50,000 additional votes respectively. At the same time, we will announce the ranking within each group, and the first place in the top three groups can receive 150,000, 100,000 and 50,000 additional votes respectively."
"We will now play each song and everyone can choose the song that suits them according to their ability."
As soon as the words fell, the large screen in front of the trainees began to play the video of each song. Each song has a different style and difficulty, which can meet the requirements of all trainees.
Luo Shixi looked at the big screen, and the more he looked, the more confused he became.
Can a person's voice really reach this high? Can a waist really bend to this degree?
This split...hiss, my legs hurt just looking at it.
Fasuo: "Okay, it's over. I believe everyone has their favorite song in mind. Let's start with Class A and choose the song first. Jiang Yan, you go first."
As a member of Class A and the C position, Jiang Yan was naturally considered the first. After he stood up, he didn't even hesitate and went straight to his favorite song.
It's a very exciting song, very suitable for him.
"Please select the teammates you want. The selected teammates will not have the right to refuse." Fasuo cue the process seriously.
"good."
Upon hearing this, Jiang Yan looked towards the crowd of people. When he saw Luo Shixi, his eyes stopped and the corners of his mouth slightly raised.
Luo Shixi suffered a cardiac arrest.
Don’t choose me!!
These four words were clearly written in Luo Shixi's eyes, and he was resisting with his whole body and soul.
This song is so difficult, wouldn't it be the end of him if he went on it?
Seeing that he was frightened and his face turned pale, Jiang Yan quickly looked away and stopped teasing Luo Shixi. He carefully selected five people to come up.
Luo Shixi's tense nerves suddenly relaxed, and he patted his chest to calm himself down.
After Jiang Yan had selected the people, the remaining ones were the other eight trainees from Class A. They each chose their favorite song. Liang Yulan and Bai Jingzhou formed a pair and they looked at each other.
Fasuo wanted to watch the fun and deliberately asked them, "Do you have any teammate you want to choose?"
"Yes," Liang Yulan said with a faint smile, "I want to choose Xiaoxi."
Fasuo: "Xiaoxi?"
Who is Xiaoxi?
Everyone looked puzzled, but those who knew that Liang Yulan and Luo Shixi had a good relationship looked over immediately.
Facing everyone's burning gazes, Luo Shixi laughed awkwardly twice.
Liang Yulan looked into Luo Shixi's eyes and smiled at him reassuringly: "Xiaoxi's appearance is very suitable for this song. I think he will like it."
This is true. The song Liang Yulan chose seemed to be tailor-made for Luo Shixi. The appearance was suitable and the choreography was not difficult. The song was mainly about the vocal part, and Liang Yulan was best at vocal music. He could teach Luo Shixi step by step.
Fasuo agreed: "That's true. What about Bai Jingzhou?"
Bai Jingzhou's phoenix eyes looked at Luo Shixi tenderly: "I also want to choose Xiaoxi."
The smile on Liang Yulan's lips froze. He glanced at Bai Jingzhou unnoticeably and met his chuckling eyes.
Liang Yulan kept smiling and looked away first, only twirling the index finger and thumb of his left hand slightly.
This time everyone knows who "Xiao Xi" is. He turned his head away and then turned back again soon.
But this time there was a hint of envy in his eyes.
What's going on now? Two students from Class A have their eyes on the same person?
Still two pairs!
The atmosphere at the scene was tense and Fasuo became even more excited. He had not expected to see such a good show. "Then Luo Shixi, who do you want to choose?"
Everyone's eyes were fixed on him, as if they wanted to burn a hole through his body; even his friends around him had teasing looks in their eyes.
Luo Shixi was almost helpless: "Teacher Fasuo, it's not up to me to decide who I want to choose, right?"
Fasuo looked at Luo Shixi's face full of "Please don't torture me anymore", and finally mercifully let him go: "Okay, I won't embarrass you. But you are right, this is not decided by you, nor by them. We will draw lots, and the students in Class A who are drawn will have the right of priority."
A pink box was put up, containing the list of all the students in Class A.
The smile on Liang Yulan's lips finally disappeared. He frowned slightly and stared at the box.
Luo Shixi knew why he was like this, because Liang Yulan was a lucky unlucky guy. He had never won a prize since he was a child, and anything that had to do with luck was not possible for him.
Luo Shixi sighed. He could only place his hopes on Bai Jingzhou because that song really suited him and he didn't want to challenge other difficult songs.
Sure enough, the name written on the drawn note was not Liang Yulan’s, but it was not Bai Jingzhou’s either.
"Jun Yan."
Jun Yan is a cool guy with long arms and legs, and he is also one of the four people who were not eliminated in the first reshuffle of Class A. He stood calmly on the stage, looking at everyone with a calm gaze, and finally fixed on Luo Shixi's face.
Luo Shixi's heart skipped a beat.
"Luo Shixi."
As soon as he uttered the word "Jun Yan", he received six scorching gazes from behind that were almost scalding him, as well as Luo Shixi's incredulous look.
Jun Yan chose Luo Shixi simply because he thought that since two top students in Class A wanted to marry him at the same time, and he was the only one, Luo Shixi must have something unique about him.
But unfortunately, Junyan got it wrong.
"Luo Shixi is too popular, isn't he? Why do so many people want him?"
"I want to be Luo Shixi's soul right now and experience the feeling of being chosen by everyone!"
"As a person like Luo Shixi, what else do you have to worry about?"
some.
Listening to the envious words of the trainees around him and looking at the difficult song names behind Jun Yan, Luo Shixi's eyes went dark.
He wants to withdraw from the competition!
===
The result cannot be changed. Luo Shixi joined Jun Yan's Group B. The one battling with them was Zhou Huaishu's Group A. The song they chose was "We Can't Stop". The tempo was not fast, but the choreography was difficult and included many difficult moves. This was also a song by Leng Yufeng.
This time it was a team dance, and Luo Shixi couldn't sacrifice his teammates just because he wanted to be a lazy guy, so he could only practice hard every day.
He was tortured by the dance moves every moment and hadn't even learned the movements. However, his teammates next to him were already able to perform the entire dance. In order not to fall behind, he practiced until very late every day and was always the first to arrive and the last to leave.
Unfortunately, the effect is still not ideal.
Jun Yan also went from being expectant at the beginning to being confused, and then to being numb.
Luo Shixi felt that his future was bleak, but fortunately Sang Zi, who was in the same group, came to comfort him.
That’s right, Sang Zi from the five-member group also came to Jun Yan’s group. Like Luo Shixi, he is a member of Class B. After Luo Shixi moved into the dormitory, he lived with him, right near Bai Jingzhou’s dormitory.
For this reason, Luo Shixi could see Bai Jingzhou every few days.
The program team opened the voting channel just after the first episode was aired. Popular contestants with higher rankings will get more exposure opportunities, and the data will be updated regularly.
The most popular guest this time is Bai Jingzhou, who got advertising and vlog shooting opportunities from the program sponsors.
The commercial was shot, but the vlog was more difficult to shoot, as it required a lot of material to be edited. So, when Bai Jingzhou had nothing to do these days, he just wandered around with a handheld camera.
Just like today, because the two dormitories were too close to each other, Bai Jingzhou came to visit Luo Shixi and his roommates in their dormitory for no reason.
Originally, after Bai Jingzhou came in, he could only record Sang Zi who was sleeping in, but he didn't expect to find Luo Shixi still in bed.
"Xiao Xi? Get up. Aren't you going to practice dancing today?" Bai Jingzhou pulled Luo Shixi's quilt.
Luo Shixi's face was revealed, her eyelashes were long and curled, but they were blinking nervously, her cheeks were flushed, there were fine beads of sweat on the tip of her nose, her rosy lips were slightly open, opening and closing with her breathing.
Bai Jingzhou's hand, which was grabbing the corner of the quilt, froze there, and a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes.
Then, he immediately noticed something was wrong and put his hand on Luo Shixi's forehead. The hot temperature made him frown.
"Xiao Zi? Stop sleeping and wake up!" Bai Jingzhou quickly called out to Sang Zi who was lying on the opposite bed, "Get up! Xiao Xi has a fever, go find the production team and send Xiao Xi to the hospital!"
"You have a fever?" Upon hearing that, Sang Zi jumped up and rushed out to find the program crew without even having time to put on his shoes.
Luo Shixi was shaken awake, his eyes seemed to be glued shut, and he had to work hard to open them. As soon as he opened them, he saw Bai Jingzhou's anxious face.
"...What's wrong with me?" As soon as he said this, he felt his voice was hoarse and weak.
Bai Jingzhou stretched out his hand, and placed his slender, warm fingers over Luo Shixi's eyes, and said gently, "Xiaoxi, we'll be at the hospital soon, you should get some sleep first."
Luo Shixi uttered a "hmm", clenched Bai Jingzhou's fingertips, and fell asleep again in a daze.
When he woke up again, he was lying on a hospital bed, receiving an IV drip.
"Awake?" Bai Jingzhou sat at the head of his bed. Seeing Luo Shixi wake up, he helped raise the head of the bed. "Are you hungry? I bought some porridge. It's still hot. Have some."
Luo Shixi was too weak to get up. He looked around: "...I have a fever?"
"You're still talking about it. You're not in good health but you're still trying so hard," Bai Jingzhou sighed, scooped a spoonful of porridge, cooled it, and passed it to Luo Shixi's mouth, "Open your mouth."
Luo Shixi said hurriedly: "Brother, I can do it myself."
"No, you're too weak. Besides, what's wrong with feeding you some porridge? Drink it quickly, or it will get cold soon." Bai Jingzhou didn't let him. He put the spoon against the corner of Luo Shixi's mouth and asked him to open his mouth.
Luo Shixi opened his mouth obediently.
Bai Jingzhou smiled with his eyes bent, his eyebrows and eyes became softer: "Be good, Xiaoxi."
After feeding the porridge, Luo Shixi looked at the handheld camera placed on the bedside: "Why is this here?"
Bai Jingzhou followed Luo Shixi's gaze and said, "I was in such a hurry when I came out that I forgot to put it down. Xiaoxi, do you mind being recorded?"
Luo Shixi shook his head, looking hesitant: "I don't mind...but I'm afraid I can't practice dancing today."
Seeing that he looked tired, Bai Jingzhou tucked the quilt for him and said, "Sleep a little longer. Don't think about dancing practice yet. Get some rest first."
Seeing Luo Shixi closed his eyes and fell asleep again, Bai Jingzhou lowered his eyes to hide the anger that flashed across his eyes.
Jun Yan.
If he hadn't been so nosy, Xiaoxi wouldn't have been so tired.
Bai Jingzhou, who refused to admit that he was taking his anger out on others, stood up and turned up the air conditioner temperature.
===
Soon, the news that Luo Shixi had a fever and was hospitalized spread on the Internet.
"What's wrong with the production team? Are they just taking care of people like this? They've taken people to the hospital!"
"Baby, why are you sick? Don't practice dancing too hard. Make sure to rest more."
"It's so funny. Luo Shixi is practicing dancing with such uncoordinated limbs? He's lucky not to be a burden to his teammates."
"Don't say that. After all, he can play the suona and he's quite famous."
"I want to know who Yigong is on the same team with. The person he is with is so unlucky."
When the milkshakes saw these remarks, they couldn't hold back their anger.
Luo Shixi was so tired that he fell ill and was hospitalized, and there are still people making sarcastic remarks online?
When Jiang Luoluo became a fan of Luo Shixi, she joined his super topic and group. She has been very active and can be considered a big fan. Upon hearing the news, she quickly asked her friend who worked there, and after being told that there was nothing serious, she quickly posted on Weibo.
【Pineapple Milkshake V: Don't panic, Xiaoxi is fine. We should just focus on collecting data for Xiaoxi and not give our energy to the wrong people.】
Luo Shixi is just starting out now. He became an overnight sensation relying on his popularity among passers-by. Fans must not start a fight at this time and cause his popularity among passers-by to collapse.
Jiang Luoluo is considered a big fan, and her words carry weight, so everyone immediately calmed down, ignored her remarks, and focused on collecting data for Luo Shixi.
===
In the evening, Bai Jingzhou’s vlog was released, and his fans quickly came to like and repost it.
"Congee, here I come!"
"Honey, I can finally see the new you~"
Fans quickly finished watching the vlog, as did netizens who followed “Idol Produce” and fans who hoped to see their own brothers in the show.
"I finished watching it and found that Luo Shixi appeared quite frequently in Bai Jingzhou's vlog."
"Wow, I feel so sorry for you, because you know your foundation is so poor, you practice so hard that you even exhausted yourself and got a high fever."
"I noticed it too! Especially the scene where Bai Jingzhou fed Luo Shixi porridge while he was in the hospital! Isn't that exciting?"
"It can be seen that Bai Jingzhou was really panicked at the time. He must be very concerned about Luo Shixi. Otherwise, such a gentle person would have become hoarse when he shouted "Sang Zi, brother, get up"."
"Are you guys into Bai Jingzhou x Luo Shixi? But I think Luo Shixi and Jiang Yan are better. When did you see Jiang Yan smiling at someone? That was when Luo Shixi showed up."
"Reese, you are worthy of being called a microscope girl! You can actually find Jiang Yan and Luo Shixi's candy from every nook and cranny!"
Everyone was discussing Luo Shixi's high fever and Bai Jingzhou feeding him porridge, and everyone expressed that they felt both distressed and happy.
At this time, a strange post on the pod group attracted everyone's attention.
"It's Luo Shixi again. Is there anyone who still doesn't know that he's putting on a show? Does the Internet have no memory? Is there anyone who doesn't know about his past?"
