melon field
Before Yi Jingchen could figure out how to debut as the center, the first stage officially began.
The on-site staff held up the loud speakers and urged the trainees to sit on their respective frozen thrones as soon as possible and prepare to welcome the mentors.
The seats are arranged in the shape of a pyramid steps.
The higher you go, the thicker the benches get frozen, and it's truly cold at heights.
Yi Jingchen chose a seat in the lower row with a heater. He looked over and saw the players who chose the upper row to occupy the top position. They put their buttocks on the ice stiffly and slowly, and a torrent of curse words burst out in his heart.
[Tsk tsk tsk, aren’t they cold?]
[I remember the first stage recording took a total of 30 hours. By then, it’s hard to say whether they will be famous or not, but their butts will definitely be extremely popular.]
[Is this the legendary story of a purple butt turning red?]
"Host." Guagua complained speechlessly, "Punch marks will be deducted."
All 107 trainees took their seats and the staff arranged the mentor seats.
Dry ice was sprayed on both sides of the stage to create an atmosphere, and the mentors invited by the program team made their debut one after another.
The mentor system of "Super Idol" is slightly different from other talent shows, adopting a 3+1 format.
'3' represents three fixed mentors, responsible for vocal, dance and rap respectively.
'1' represents the flight instructor.
At each stage of the program, the production team will spend a huge amount of money to invite the most popular, most popular and most traffic-driving superstar in the circle to attract traffic for "Super Idol".
Today we are recording the first stage, which is the most important part of the early stage of the audition.
It is said that the flight instructors invited by the program team are particularly influential.
Previously, in order to maintain the sense of mystery, even the trainees who participated in the program did not know who the flying instructor was.
The dry ice dissipated, and the first person to appear on stage was the vocal instructor, the young queen of the Chinese music scene, Wei Mi.
As soon as she showed up, Yi Jingchen heard the evil system excitedly say "there is a melon".
The system's capabilities are limited, and it can only read Yi Jingchen's mind to get all kinds of shocking news.
However, it has its own "melon-eating radar" and will react violently when it encounters an artist with gossip.
Although Yi Jingchen was a reporter, he had previously been in charge of the social section and knew little about celebrities in the entertainment industry. He had no idea what Wei Mi's status was.
Hearing the system's warning of eating melons, he took out a coil notebook from his pocket, ready to collect materials at any time.
Wei Mi pretended to be enthusiastic, singing and waving to greet the trainees.
Yi Jingchen is an outstanding student in the Department of Journalism, and he has seen countless people. He can make a preliminary assessment of the interviewee in just 30 seconds.
[Teacher Wei Mi's greeting was really heartless, just like my own unwillingness to get up and having to get up at 8:00.]
[It's confirmed that I'm forced to operate. I'm just a poor worker.]
When Wei Mi heard his comments, her hand holding the microphone trembled slightly, and she even forgot to open her mouth.
However, the live 'performance' continued and the singing did not stop at all.
Wei Mi panicked and opened her mouth quickly, but sang the next verse.
The singing and the accompaniment form two completely different sound tracks.
scene……
one time……
Very embarrassing.
Yi Jingchen noticed this detail and quickly wrote it down.
[Instructor Wei Mi's lip-syncing wasn't synced to the original. Was that intentional?]
People around: What do you mean?
I'm obviously angry at you!
Wei Mi's face flushed with anger. She simply gave up pretending and argued irritably, "What's wrong with lip-syncing? Do you think I want to lip-sync?!"
"Every time I lip-sync, isn't it the organizers' request? They said it was a makeshift stage with poor sound quality, and they were afraid the audience would criticize me for being unprofessional."
After a good scolding, Wei Mi finally realized what was happening and covered his mouth, looking at the live camera in horror.
It’s over!!!
Her agent repeatedly warned her not to admit to lip-syncing.
Wei Mi's eyes darkened, and he thought that he would be scolded by netizens again.
Unexpectedly, the style of the barrage in the live broadcast room was quite different from what Wei Mi had imagined.
[Mi Mi: Let's be frank, I was just lip-syncing, right?]
[Hahahaha! Sister Mi's lip syncing is so careless every time. Mi fans have been wanting to complain for a long time~]
[u1s1, this PR tactic is quite clever, taking advantage of the focus on the talent show to reveal negative information]
[Yes! She must have arranged it.]
Wei Mi: 'I am not what I don't have.'
Wei Mi was extremely embarrassed. He cleared his throat, signaled the stage control to turn off the original accompaniment, and picked up the microphone to sing the second half.
She became famous at a young age and is one of the few female singer-songwriters in the music industry, so her singing skills are naturally outstanding.
But every time there is a live broadcast, the organizer requires lip-syncing.
Over time, netizens dubbed her the "Lip-syncing Queen," and they almost forgot that she initially relied on her strength and talent to gain a foothold.
After Wei Mi sang the second half of the song, she bowed to the camera and spoke to her agent across the air.
"Did you hear me? It's not like I can't sing. Don't ask me to lip-sync in the future."
After saying that, she ran back to her seat dejectedly and looked at the trainees in confusion.
When she was singing just now, she clearly heard someone publicly diss her for lip-syncing.
After searching for several times, I couldn't find out who had spoken.
Is it an auditory hallucination?
Yi Jingchen avoided his gaze calmly.
[It has nothing to do with me.jpg]
The next person to appear after Wei Mi was rap instructor Mobb Z.
Mobb Z fits all the public's stereotypes about rappers. He is cool and keeps real, and exudes the arrogant temperament of "I am the best in the world and no one will submit to me."
As soon as he walked into the first stage, he burst into a shocking curse.
"Damn! It's freezing! I'm going to freeze into an ice sculpture!"
Hearing his passionate insults, half the people in the room tried hard to suppress their laughter.
The other half were pinching their thighs in pain because they had failed to hold back their laughter.
The system became excited again, emitting a sharp explosion, "Wow! There's a melon!"
"Another melon?" Yi Jingchen finished taking notes and looked up at Mobb Z, trying to analyze something from him.
Mobb Z was obviously stunned by the cold. He had no interaction with the trainees during the performance. He passionately revised a freestyle segment, dissed the recording environment for being too bad, and then quickly shrank back to his own position.
Yi Jingchen had no contact with him, and was unable to read Mobb Z's thoughts, so he had no choice but to put his melon aside for the time being.
The next dance instructor, Gu Sijun, was to appear. He learned in advance that the scene of the first stage would be extremely cold.
Therefore, after he came on stage, he started his mentor show without any nonsense to prevent his body from cooling down.
He is a professional dancer and has been practicing dance since he was young, so he has very solid basic skills.
In just two minutes, the performance included some difficult moves without looking deliberately showy, making it extremely entertaining.
This caused the dancers on the scene to stare with their eyes wide open, shouting that it was unsurpassable.
[Teacher Gu seems quite decent, he probably doesn't...]
Before I could finish my thought, I heard the system let out an exaggerated "Wow".
[Huh? Does he have melons too?]
Gu Sijun took a big leap and almost lost his balance when he landed.
The onlookers, who were already used to hearing Yi Jingchen's inner thoughts, pricked up their ears, waiting for him to reveal the gossip about Gu Sijun.
[Even Gu Sijun has gossip. Are there any celebrities in the entertainment industry who don’t have gossip?]
The gossipy system shared, "He himself doesn't have any gossip, but the people around him do!"
"Ah?" Yi Jingchen casually complained, "You're quite impressive. You can even foresee the consequences?"
"Ordinary melons can't sense it, but there's a special kind of melon that I can sense!"
Yi Jingchen asked casually, "What?"
"Green melon! Fresh green melon!" the system said excitedly, "There's a lustrous green light shrouding his head. It's even greener than your fund!"
[Can the grassland above Mr. Gu's head be compared with my fund?]
Yi Jingchen thought about his fund which was continuing to plummet.
[That's green enough.]
He looked at Gu Sijun again, deep sympathy and pity in his eyes.
[Poor Teacher Gu, if you knew someone was cheating on you while you were dancing, would you still dance so enthusiastically?]
Gu Sijun's performance was not yet complete. He tried hard to clear his mind, ignore Yi Jingchen's thoughts, and dance the second half.
Returning to his seat, he took out his camera and sent a message to his girlfriend, ignoring the fact that it was still filming.
Gu Sijun: Yaoyao, what were you doing just now?
Yaoyao: Of course I’m thinking about kissing my husband~ Didn’t you sneeze?
Before Gu Sijun went on stage, he did sneeze in the snow.
His love brain was activated and he chose to believe what his girlfriend said.
[Yi Jingchen must have made a mistake. How could Yaoyao cheat on me?]
Yi Jingchen: “…”
Respect and blessings.
After the three professional instructors appeared, it was the turn of today's highlight, the mysterious flying instructor was about to appear.
The trainees who were almost frozen on the bench stretched their necks to look around, trying to guess which big shot the program crew had invited.
Two more streams of dry ice spray faded away, and a man dressed in luxury brands and expensive jewelry appeared at the entrance, causing collective screams at the scene and in the live broadcast room.
[Oh my god! My husband Kwon Eun-woo!!!]
[The mixed-blooded, handsome Kwon Eun-woo! The perfect idol Kwon Eun-woo! The second-highest star Kwon Eun-woo!]
[Eunwoo Oppa~ In this circle where houses are collapsing everywhere, only you can bring me the last bit of warmth]
"If you ask me, forget about the talent shows. Wouldn't it be better to just quietly pursue our Eunwoo? Eunwoo is a naturally handsome, mixed-race man of eight nationalities, highly educated, highly intelligent, talented, and a fan favorite. He even promised us he wouldn't date before 30. He's a perfect match for any fangirl."
[Our Enyou is so innocent that he has to disinfect his hands more than ten times after touching a girl. He may not be able to fall in love even when he is 40, let alone 30.]
Yi Jingchen read the barrage of comments at a glance, and the complaints in his heart never stopped.
[Hahahahaha! There's actually a term called 'second-tier top stream' in the entertainment industry.]
[As we all know, there are two top universities in China, and a bunch of top 2 universities. So how many are there in the next top 2?]
[Also, is the mixed blood of eight countries definitely not... what?]
Even though he used "that thing" to refer to it, the word "bastard" popped up in everyone's mind.
Everyone lowered their heads in tacit understanding, pinching their thighs to stifle laughter.
Kwon Eun-woo walked out triumphantly, but the imagined applause and exclamations did not appear. Everyone had an unbearable expression.
Kwon Eun-woo:?
[What? Did the cold wind make you runny?]
The moment Quan Enyou appeared on the scene, the system emitted a sharp explosion that had never been heard before, accompanied by various exaggerated exclamations.
“Wow!”
“Wow!”
“Wow!”
"This is the first time I've seen a star collapse so evenly. I'd like to call him the pentagonal warrior of collapsed houses!" The system was no longer sleepy, and urged Yi Jingchen with great energy to quickly find a way to contact Quan Enyou and dig out the shocking secrets on him.
However, as a guest who was there to attract traffic, Kwon Eun-woo did not put on any show as a mentor. He just said hello and sat down in his seat directly.
Even if Yi Jingchen had no good eyesight, it was impossible for him to rush in front of him and force a contact opportunity.
His mind reading ability is limited and he can only read current thoughts.
If he rushed over, Quan Enyou would probably be thinking: What a lunatic.
I was laughing so hard that I couldn't eat any melon.
"Don't worry, be quiet." Yi Jingchen said slowly and soothingly, "The first stage recording will take two days in total, there will always be a chance."
Although he has no experience in the entertainment industry, as a reporter, digging deep into people's minds is an initial skill.
Yi Jingchen withdrew his gaze from Quan Eun-woo and looked at the screen, and found that the first group of performers on the initial stage and the performance repertoire had already appeared on the main screen.
Among the three trainees who took the stage first, there was a name that looked very familiar.
"Breaking Dimension" (ACG Comic Exhibition Promotional Song)
Original Singer: Cat
C position & rap: Zhong Zihan, dance: He Yin, vocal: Yi Jingchen.
Yi Jingchen lowered his eyes, and his gaze first fell on his own name.
Then slowly move upwards and horizontally to look at the piece you will perform on your first stage.
Then, his gaze froze——
Yi Jingchen, whose nickname happens to be "Cat": [Pupil earthquake.jpg]
What’s going on?!
The song I picked to perform on the first stage turned out to be my own song!!!
