"Luo Shixi, it's your turn."
Luo Shixi stood up and responded: "Coming right up!"
There was a round of interview today and he waited outside for a while before it was his turn.
Bai Jingzhou came out and made a cheering gesture to Luo Shixi who was walking towards him: "Don't be nervous. I'll just ask you some normal questions."
Luo Shixi nodded in response.
Pushing the door open, it was a small white room with several people from the director team inside. Luo Shixi bowed and said hello before sitting on the chair in the middle. There was a small table next to him with the sponsor's products on it.
His eyes fell on the mineral water, but quickly retracted their gazes, staring at the director in front of him. His hands were placed neatly on his knees, and he clenched them nervously, causing some wrinkles on his clothes.
"Xiao Xi, is this your second interview?" Seeing him like this, the director smiled and tried to ease the atmosphere.
"Yes." Luo Shixi's voice was a little tense, and the tone was a little lower than usual.
He quickly asked to clear his throat.
It stands to reason that at this point, every student has been interviewed at least three times, but Luo Shixi is an exception. He only participated in a personal interview when he first joined the program team. At that time, the program team interviewed everyone as a souvenir.
Because Luo Shixi was considered to be on the elimination list, the program crew did not spend any more time on him in subsequent interviews.
But now it's different.
The director comforted him: "Don't be nervous, I'm just asking a few questions."
Luo Shixi nodded obediently.
The director couldn't help but laugh at his pair of watery and panicked eyes, and lowered his voice: "Xiao Xi, do you know that the video of you describing other contestants on the first stage has gone viral?"
Luo Shixi nodded: "I know."
Director: "How did you come up with the idea of using food to describe it?"
"Because I usually like to eat. Different foods bring different feelings, just like eating sweets makes people feel happy. I felt happy when watching their performance, so I subconsciously used chocolate and sugar-roasted chestnuts to describe it."
This really fits Luo Shixi's image.
The director asked some random questions, such as "Is the practice difficult?" and "How is the food?" Luo Shixi answered them one by one and gradually relaxed.
It seems that the collection is really simple.
Just as I was thinking about it, the director asked another question: "Are you, Jiang Yan, Bai Jingzhou, and Liang Yulan living in the same dormitory now?"
When Luo Shixi mentioned his three roommates, the smile on his face got a little bigger, and he said happily: "Yes, the three of us have a super good relationship." With nothing to do these days, he was either in the dormitory or hanging out with his three brothers.
The director let out a long “Oh” and said, “Then who do you have the best relationship with?”
As soon as this question came up, everyone else in the director's group laughed secretly.
Now everyone knows that these three people have respective partners with Luo Shixi, so the director is just trying to stir up trouble by asking about them.
Luo Shixi didn't know what they were laughing at and looked confused.
The director coughed lightly and said, "This is not a question I wanted to ask. It was asked by a netizen on the Internet."
"Is that so?" Luo Shixi scratched his head in confusion, not knowing what the difference was between the two, but still answered the director's question, "I can choose not to. The four of us have a good relationship and we all get along well."
A male staff member who often sent notifications to Luo Shixi's dormitory twitched his lips when he heard this.
What do you care about the relationship between Jiang Yan and Liang Yulan?
Say it in front of them and see if they agree with you.
The director was not satisfied with Luo Shixi's answer. There was no fun in playing catch-up. So he asked, "What if you have to choose the one with whom you have the best relationship?"
Luo Shixi hesitated again and again, and said: "Do I have to choose from three people?"
Are there any other students you have a good relationship with?
Director: “Then tell me.”
Luo Shixi: "He Yuhe, mentor. He has helped me a lot and taught me a lot in the past half month since I joined the program. I am especially grateful to him. If I have the chance, I would like to give him a gift as a thank you."
Although Luo Shixi was trying to avoid the three-choice question, what he said was true. However, the production team did not take it seriously and thought it was an excuse.
It's a very official excuse.
The director had no choice but to let Luo Shixi go.
The interview didn't last long, and ended after two or three more questions. As Luo Shixi turned to leave, the director called him.
"Xiao Xi, have you ever thought about what position to choose for the second public this time?"
Luo Shixi has been troubled by this problem for a whole day. Tonight is the second public position evaluation and he must make a choice.
"I don't know. I haven't thought about it yet."
But it is most likely vocal, because this is the easiest, and he has never been exposed to dance or rap. Especially rap, Luo Shixi is completely clueless.
The director asked him to look at a Weibo poll: "I didn't want to tell you this, but since you haven't made your choice yet, I'll show it to you as a reference."
The content of the Weibo vote is very simple, which is to count what type of stage fans hope Luo Shixi will perform next.
Normally, fans of a show would not initiate this kind of voting, as it would seem like they were kidnapping their idol. The person who initiated the voting was a big V, so many people participated in it.
Among the options, dance was the most popular choice, about twice as many as the other two options.
The comment section below is also clearly divided. One part is the show fans who have watched his first public performance, and they are all clamoring to see the little brother kill people online. The other part is those who have not watched the performance and simply want to see Luo Shixi dance.
Obviously, the former part accounts for the majority.
The director put his phone away and said, "The third episode hasn't been released yet. If it were, the vote would probably not be what it is now."
At that time, the dance option would definitely be far ahead and crush the other two options.
Sing? Rap?
Where is the scent of dancing!
Luo Shixi frowned. Are we going to dance again?
Seeing Luo Shixi's embarrassment, the director said, "I'll show you this. This part is not recorded either. The final decision is still yours. But I personally suggest that you choose dance, because your last performance was so shocking. You will definitely become popular again after the third episode. But I know you can't dance, so the risk is huge. The specific choice depends on your wishes."
Luo Shixi was brought in by the director and decided to stay. To put it bluntly, the director's action that day almost changed Luo Shixi's life.
The director selfishly hopes that Luo Shixi can go further, at least no longer be a child who only has two vegetarian dishes and steamed buns after a day's work in the hot summer.
Several people from the director team were also talking about it.
"Xiao Xi, I want to see you choose a dance, too! You danced so well last time that I immediately became your fan."
"Our 'Naixi' will also have a day to rise up."
"I used the photo of you dancing last time as my screen saver. It was so pretty!"
"Me too! I even recorded the sound as my ringtone!"
Luo Shixi obviously also remembered the last dance and his face immediately turned red.
He lowered his head, too shy to look at them, and the corners of his mouth curled up into a small arc, revealing a little dimple: "Thank you all for your likes, I will consider it carefully."
===
That night, He Yu came with the second master's mission.
Now there are only 60 people. Originally, everyone stood in the room during every gathering, and even stood on the steps at the side. But now it is a bit empty.
They were no longer divided into classes, so they automatically took the next stand according to their ranking.
Luo Shixi stood at the top and had a great view.
The only trouble is that the two people around me are so annoying.
On his left and right were Bai Jingzhou and Jiang Yan. Relying on the fact that they were taller than Luo Shixi, the two of them put their elbows on his shoulders very easily and leaned against him to talk lazily.
Luo Shixi's shoulders were pressed down, as if he was being punished. He stood in the middle with his arms folded, with five big words written on his face: "Stay strong and live."
Luo Shixi curled his lips: "That's enough, both of you. Take your hands away quickly." What if he can't grow taller because of the pressure!
Jiang Yan turned his head to look at him: "I don't."
The tone was drawn out and the voice was lazy, and the row of earrings on the left were particularly dazzling under the light.
Bai Jingzhou smiled and said, "Xiao Xi, do you want me to take it alone, or do you want me to take it all? Hmm?" After saying the last word, he looked at Luo Shixi and smiled without saying anything.
“…”
Luo Shixi was speechless: "Go ahead, go ahead, I'll let you guys go!"
Liang Yulan borrowed a staff member's cell phone to call home, so she arrived late and saw this scene as soon as she arrived.
"Xiao Xi." He stood behind Luo Shixi.
Luo Shixi turned around and looked at him: "Why are you so late?"
Liang Yulan shook his head.
Luo Shixi didn't know what he was doing, he just felt that Liang Yulan seemed much quieter than usual.
He Yu announced the position evaluation for the second public performance on the stage, which was divided into three categories: dance, rap and singing, with four songs in each category and a limit of five people for each song.
The production team played all the songs and let the trainees choose by themselves, and then go up in order of ranking. However, this time was different from the last time, and all the trainees who made their choices were blocked behind the door.
In other words, the trainees who had not made a choice had no idea what the people in front of them had chosen, which made many people nervous.
What if someone with similar or even higher ability than you chooses the same song?
Will the C position still be mine?
Everyone kept looking at the door behind them.
Luo Shixi ranked sixth, so naturally he made the sixth choice. He walked to the table where the song cards were placed and looked down at the three categories of cards.
He originally wanted to pick up a soothing song, but when his hand touched the card, he changed direction.
The staff looked at the card he picked up, with surprise in their eyes, and confirmed again and again: "Luo Shixi, do you really want to take this?"
Luo Shixi smiled bitterly: "If you ask me again, I will regret it."
He didn't know what he was thinking. He felt an inexplicable impulse after listening to the song, and the director asked him to give it a challenge.
So in the end, he gave up his comfort zone and chose it.
The staff member said: "Then please go to the corresponding position."
After Luo Shixi responded "OK", he walked behind the door and was a little surprised when he saw the positions of the five people in front of him.
There were two people, the third one was called Lu Jiaci, and the fifth one was called Shen Nanchen. He was not familiar with them and did not understand them.
Jiang Yan chose a dance, a powerful and extroverted dance music. Bai Jingzhou did not choose a dance that he was good at, but a very niche foreign song. However, they were both all-around aces, so Luo Shixi was not too surprised.
What really surprised him was that Liang Yulan chose a rap song that was very different from his style.
Luo Shixi asked: "Brother, what stimulated you?"
Liang Yulan looked like this wasn't the first time he had been asked this question. He said calmly, "Just think of me as being irritated. What did Xiaoxi choose?"
Luo Shixi showed his card: "This one."
The one called Ana Shen immediately said “Damn”: “Why did you choose this?”
"You really are good at..." He looked at Luo Shixi, unable to find an adjective for a moment, "You really know how to stimulate yourself."
He patted Luo Shixi on the shoulder with a strange expression on his face.
Not only was Ana Shen shocked, but everyone fell silent when they saw the card in Luo Shixi's hand.
