Second Duke
Yi Jingchen looked left and right and found that the trainees around him were not paying much attention to the stage. Instead, their eyes were on him.
Those pairs of eyes were hot and eager, as if they wanted to see something from me.
Yi Jingchen felt strange and looked down at his outfit today.
[Aside from holding the main body in my arms, there's nothing special about me?]
[Is it because the main body is too cute?]
Yi Jingchen covered the original cat's head with both hands, pressed it down gently, and hid it in his arms, causing the kitten to protest loudly.
“Meow meow meow!”
Who closed my eyes!
The trainees around cooperated and looked away, pretending to be busy with other things.
--joke!
They didn't care if he found out that they had been eavesdropping on Yi Jingchen's thoughts.
If we can’t eat fresh melons from now on, won’t the reputation of “Super Melon” be ruined?
How boring will my future draft career be!
Therefore, the people around quickly reached a consensus: they must not be discovered by the Melon God!
With a common goal in mind, everyone tacitly pretended to enjoy the stage, but in fact, they kept an ear to Yi Jingchen's side.
Yi Jingchen saw them all turn around, nodded, and thought seriously:
[As expected, everyone is looking at the main body!]
[Very normal, very normal~ My main body is as mine, and the cuteness is off the charts~]
He released his main body, rubbed the silver-colored ears, and continued to look towards the waiting area, observing Zhuo Wenjie and——
Ying Xiao.
"Super Idol" was recorded for more than a month, and Yi Jingchen and Ying Xiao had very few contacts.
Even though I stayed in Class A during the theme song phase, the words I said could be counted on one hand.
Before today, his only impression of Ying Xiao was that he acted like a playboy and only knew how to take shortcuts.
During the theme song re-evaluation, he attempted to gain more votes by "bribing low-ranking trainees" in order to get the initial C position, but was unfortunately exposed by Yi Jingchen.
Ying Xiao is as his name suggests, he has no special skills and can only do marketing.
He comes from the largest idol company in the industry. Although he has average qualifications, he often gets resources that ordinary trainees dare not even think about.
There have been rumors in the company that Ying Xiao has some leverage over the top management.
Now it seems that what Ying Xiao holds may not be any evidence...
[He holds the company's inheritance rights, right?]
Yi Jingchen complained casually.
Last night, he speculated about Zhuo Wenjie's possible boyfriend and listed several suspects, including Ying Xiao.
However, his suspicion level was not high.
Yi Jingchen focused on the arrogant and arrogant second-generation rich man Ling Qiu, and even sneaked over to test him. He found that Ling Qiu was snoring in the dormitory last night and had not gone out at all.
There were several suspected targets left, but Yi Jingchen didn't know much about them and couldn't find the correct target.
However, Zhuo Wenjie's behavior was too obvious, and he basically confessed himself.
Combined with Du Xingwei’s previous statement, Zhuo Wenjie is the type who is good at taking advantage of others. How could he give up developing Ying Xiao’s network of contacts?
He was in a foreign boy band, dealing with those harsh media people, and was able to get along with everyone, but rumors of his "bad relationship" with Ying Xiao spread.
[Oh, when things are out of the ordinary, there must be something fishy going on!]
Yi Jingchen observed Ying Xiao carefully, comparing his figures and voices with the wild mandarin ducks he had bumped into several times before, and he could basically confirm it with 100% certainty:
[Ying Xiao is the boyfriend who had an affair with Zhuo Wenjie in the bathroom!]
Hearing his decisive conclusion, Ying Xiao did not react at all. Instead, Zhuo Wenjie, who was chatting and laughing with his teammates, changed his expression instantly, moved to the side, and tried to draw a clear line between himself and Ying Xiao.
Seeing him hide further away, Ying Xiao's eyes flashed with a hint of violence.
Yi Jingchen carried his main body to the entrance next to the waiting area, and his interest in eating melons reached its peak.
[Tsk tsk tsk, so Ying Xiao was so upset because he thought he and Zhuo Wenjie were truly in love~!]
[Did you know that Zhuo Wenjie confessed his feelings to Du Xingwei's senior brother?]
[Do you know how many seniors and bigwigs he hooked up with when he was abroad in order to debut?]
[Do you know how many people he offered olive branches to in order to return to China after the incident, and you were the only one who accepted it?]
The more Yi Jingchen thought about it, the more he felt sorry for Ying Xiao. Seeing him standing there like a wooden chicken, isolated from Zhuo Wenjie's world, he shook his head with pity.
[you do not know. ]
[You're like the love-brained male protagonist in those melodramatic idol dramas. It's clearly a transaction of money and sex, but it ends up looking like love.]
[Just because you're the illegitimate son of an entertainment company tycoon, you think no one in the world loves you. So you've been living on poverty since you were little?]
[Haha, so pretentious!]
Ying Xiao, who was labeled as "pretentious", wanted to say something back, but he couldn't open his mouth at all.
When he turned around, Yi Jingchen had already walked away with his main body in his arms, still mumbling:
"My true self, you can't be like him and let other little wild cats trick you into running away with just a few words~"
"Even though you're my adopted baby, I opened a can of cat climbing frame for you because I love you, understand?"
"Meow~" The original body rubbed against Yi Jingchen obediently, and at the same time glanced at Ying Xiao as if showing off.
Cat, I have fatherly love~
Are you envious?
Ying Xiao: ...
This man and this cat are really irritating.
Zhuo Wenjie noticed that Ying Xiao's face looked strange, and fearing that he might waver, he took the risk of being suspected and moved closer, ready to whisper a few words of comfort.
"Ying Xiao, you..."
Ying Xiao didn't wait for him to finish and turned in another direction, putting distance between him and Zhuo Wenjie again.
Zhuo Wenjie bit his lower lip and leaned forward again to comfort his "boyfriend".
He admitted that he did take advantage of Ying Xiao's feelings.
Zhuo Wenjie originally planned that as long as he made his debut successfully and debuted as a group like his predecessors and earned the termination fee, he would be able to awaken the second spring of his career.
As for Ying Xiao?
The eldest son of a wealthy family changes his lovers faster than he changes his clothes, and gets tired of them after a while.
Who knew Ying Xiao would get carried away so easily.
Not only did she want to confirm her relationship with him, she even followed him to "Super Idol", which made Zhuo Wenjie very uneasy.
As a rising idol who made his second debut, how could he expose his secret relationship at this critical juncture?
Zhuo Wenjie whispered to comfort Ying Xiao, but the audience in the live broadcast room felt something was wrong.
[Do you think Zhuo Wenjie and Ying Xiao are a bit... gay? ]
If it were anyone else, I'd call you a fujoshi for looking at someone gay, but this couple has the stamp of approval from the melon gods, so go ahead, you gay people!
[Go for it! Remember what the melon god said, we hope the CP is real, we don’t want to really see a real couple]
[+1, it's unfair to fans for a talent show trainee to fall in love, regardless of whether the partner is a man or a woman]
Who is Zhuo Wenjie dating? Has it been confirmed? Don't talk nonsense without evidence.
[Let's talk about something with evidence! Everyone knows who Du Xingwei's senior is, right? Is it true that Zhuo Wenjie harassed him, both openly and covertly?]
[Although it's not nice to mention the deceased, anyone who sees that footage will think it's workplace sexual harassment. It's really pitiful for my senior brother.]
[Why is it workplace sexual harassment? Don’t you have any close colleagues or friends?]
[Zhuo fans, how dare you bring this up! When my senior was being cyberbullied, what was this close friend doing? Oh yeah, they were busy deleting photos and comments overnight.]
"Did you really think that by publishing a few whitewashing articles, no one would remember the shit you did? Our master's body is still cold, and we don't want to tear it apart and make him restless in his afterlife. Do you really think we dare not confront you?"
[Zhuo Wenjie, don't be so mean, silly fans. We are old rivals, who doesn't have some information? ]
Zhuo Wenjie's fans were originally planning to clarify things for their idol, but unexpectedly, they even called over fans of his former teammates, and they were so scared that they dared not act rashly.
Just at this time, the number of votes for the original V/R group trainees was announced on the stage.
There are several poor contestants in the original V/R group, and the overall number of votes is not high.
However, Lu Ju won 498 votes, and with each mentor having four votes, the total number of votes increased by two, breaking the 500-vote mark, causing exclamations from the audience.
500 votes, almost reaching the highest number of votes in a public.
You know, in the second public performance, the audience's fan status is more obvious and the voting criteria are more stringent.
Luchu received 500 votes and is likely to secure the title of the top vote-getter in advance.
Lu Ju never dreamed that his work would be recognized by so many people. He was so moved that he almost burst into tears.
"Jiujiu, don't cry!"
"You are the best original singer, this stage is really perfect~"
"Yes, I'm not your fan, but I'm willing to subscribe to your music software VIP and play your songs on repeat!"
"Thank you, thank you everyone for supporting my music." Lu Jue held back tears and said shyly, "If possible, I hope everyone can support me as well."
"I...I hope to be seen by more people. I want to make my debut."
After saying that she "wanted to make her debut", iAttribute啾啾 felt extremely embarrassed and ran back to the backstage.
The audience thought the socially anxious wife was cute and chased after him, loudly confessing their love to him.
Even after Lujiu sat down at her seat, she could still hear someone shouting, "Lujiu, marry me!"
"Chirp." Yi Jingchen came over, holding his original body, and reminded sternly, "Bigamy is illegal."
"Ah?" Luchu's face was full of confusion, not understanding what he meant.
"I mean, you have too many female husbands." Yi Jingchen pointed to the barrage display screen. Those who wanted to marry Lu Ju as their wife in the live broadcast room had lined up to outer space and were receiving number plates in an orderly manner.
"I, I won't marry!" Luchu hugged herself tightly in fear. "Don't ask for numbers anymore. I really won't marry you!"
The audience in the live broadcast room seemed not to hear anything, and threw out a few sentences such as "If my wife says no, I must accept it", "My wife is shy and wants to accept you but refuses you, do you understand?", "There is no wife that cannot be married, only dogs who don't work hard", and then continued to collect number plates in an orderly manner.
“Woo…”
Lu Jiu covered his face and buried it deeply.
Yi Jingchen was not afraid to watch the fun and even squatted beside him to make trouble, "When you get married, can you let my real body be your flower girl?"
"Meow~" the main body called out in cooperation.
The second group was the real husband-husband group of Zhuo Wenjie and Ying Xiao. The two were obviously affected and flipped over on the stage.
After the performance, when everyone was canvassing for votes and accepting interviews, their teammates accidentally brought the two of them together.
Zhuo Wenjie tried hard to avoid suspicion, but every time he met Ying Xiao's eyes, there would be teasing from the audience.
There was even a brave man who asked loudly:
"Ying Xiao, is Zhuo Wenjie your boyfriend?"
Any artist with a little experience knows that such extreme shouting will definitely be cut from the main film.
The best way to respond is the common one in the entertainment industry: play dead.
Who knew that Ying Xiao's brain might have been squeezed by the door.
Or maybe Yi Jingchen just pointed out that Zhuo Wenjie was just using him, which made Ying Xiao very unhappy.
He looked down at the audience and shouted, "So what? It's none of your business!"
For a moment, the whole audience was silent.
There are so many talent shows that people participate in, some have secret affairs, some have hookups, and some even force their girlfriends to have abortions.
The only thing he didn’t do was come out on the spot and shout it out so loudly.
Ying Xiao stood there, looking like a dead pig that was not afraid of boiling water.
Yi Jingchen was right. Although he was an illegitimate child and could not be seen in public, his father, who ran an entertainment company, had never owed Ying Xiao anything in terms of material wealth since he was a child.
If he doesn't work in the entertainment industry, he still has many ways to make a living.
Zhuo Wenjie's expression suddenly turned ugly.
Unlike Ying Xiao, his contract is still in the hands of the company.
His career is ruined and his fate will be worse than Kwon Eun-woo's.
At least Quan Enyou has a chance to continue. He can just drink with her for a few years and if he's lucky enough, he can redeem himself by meeting a rich woman?
What about him?
He still has 16 years left on his contract. How many 16 years are there in a lifetime?
Seeing that the situation was not right, the stage manager quickly drove away this melodramatic couple who loved to perform in every public toilet and were always bumped into by Yi Jingchen, and notified the third group to go on stage quickly.
Fortunately, the unlucky third group was the most important stage of the V/D group, "Also Zhaozhao".
This song has attracted much attention since the day it was selected.
As the first reproduction of the show in the world, it has already become a hot topic before the performance even started, and it is truly attracting everyone's attention.
Then--
They pulled a big one in the spotlight.
How to say it.
The failure of "Always Love" was so terrible that people even forgot about the two people who had just come out publicly and only cared about scolding him.
The "Super Idol" production team was very moved.
This batch of trainees are really good. In order to help the program team out of trouble, they are willing to commit suicide attacks.
[No, no, no, they didn't have a suicide attack.]
Yi Jingchen defended the "Also Zhaozhao" crew:
[You may not believe this, but they tried their best.]
Trainee from the "Also Zhaozhao" group: Well said. Don't say it next time.
...makes us seem even more miserable.
The theme of "Also Zeng Zhao Zhao" is to describe the cultural relics that have been lost. There are six people in the group, and each person represents an artifact.
In order to replicate this stage, they used the same makeup as last year, and the stage was also highly replicated at 1:1.
The problem is that everyone only copied the external appearance, not the core.
Even though the appearances were well done, there was no emotion incorporated into the performance, leaving the audience feeling like they were only watching a clumsy imitation farce.
Halfway through, the trainees from the V/D group kept shaking their heads.
Tian Xitu: "I guessed this effect would occur, so I didn't dare touch that song."
"Me too," Du Xingwei agreed. "I've analyzed that stage. No matter how hard we try, it won't be as good as the original."
After listening to their analysis, Yi Jingchen felt more sympathetic towards the "Ye Zeng Zhao Zhao" crew.
[What makes a classic a classic is not only the excellence of the work, but also the right timing and the right performers.]
[Standing on the shoulders of giants does not necessarily make you a giant.]
[It's also possible to fall.]
The production of "Also Seen Zhao Zhao" ended regretfully amidst sympathy, and gained a hot search for "a car crash".
When they were choosing the songs, they were excited and thought that both black and red were popular and they could earn traffic anyway.
Now, after so much effort, the trainees are more or less feeling disappointed as they got such a terrible result.
Just as a few people returned to the backstage, a nimble little kitten ran over and circled around each trainee.
"Meow~" It raised its paws, patted their ankles, and then returned to Yi Jingchen's arms.
"Yi Jingchen," the leading trainee came over to thank Yi Jingchen, "Thank you for your cat comforting us."
"Huh? It's not trying to comfort you." Yi Jingchen pinched the original body's face. "It's just checking to see if you're prepared for him to secretly hide dried fish."
"Well……"
"Well, we were just being sentimental."
After they finished speaking, they became even more dejected.
Yi Jingchen smiled and said casually, "For Kitty, there's nothing that dried fish can't solve. If there is, just have another one."
Yi Jingchen took out some dried fish and fed it to the original body. He scratched its chin and seemed to say to himself, "There will be new dried fish tomorrow."
"……Um."
For some reason, although Yi Jingchen didn't say anything to comfort them, everyone's mood inexplicably improved a lot.
[Yes~ There will be new dried fish tomorrow! ]
[Who hasn't had a few bad performances as a trainee? Look at that guy sitting in the middle of the mentors' seats; he also has a dark history with Princess Yidong.]
[Princess Yidong doesn't have a dark history! She has a cyber criminal record!]
[Teacher He: Are you polite?]
[Hahahaha! Stop cueing Princess Yidong, Teacher He is going to kill people.]
The third stage ended and one-third of the second public performance had passed.
Next, positions 4 and 5, which all groups wanted, were drawn by Mu Gan and Li Jibai respectively.
When choosing songs for the second public performance, Mu Gan chose a rap song with a clear and beautiful style from the D/R group, which caused the audience to question it.
You know, Mu Gan used to be a professional rapper, so it's normal for him to choose the rap group.
However, the D/R track contains not only rap, but also dance.
Moreover, dance is ranked first, which means that the program team will have higher requirements for dance.
Other pure singers or rappers, fearing that dancing is too difficult, have chosen the V/R track.
Only Mu Gan made the choice first and resolutely went to the D/R group to compete with those male group dancers.
What was even more unexpected was that Mu Gan did not choose the original group.
In terms of age, Mu Gan has just turned 22, but he has been in the industry for five or six years, making him considered a senior in the rapper world.
Even though Mu Gan has a very different style, no one has dared to question his status in the Kazakh circle in recent years.
The reason is simple. In terms of talent, Mu Gan is definitely at the Purple Star level.
He is particularly good at composition, and it takes him no more than an hour to write a song on average.
Whenever inspiration strikes, it only takes thirty minutes from writing to recording.
If Mu Gan were to write an original rap, there would be no need to hold a meeting within the group.
In the time it takes for everyone to drink a glass of water, Mu Gan can come up with several pieces of work.
However, he did not create his own music, but chose a group that did not require arranging or writing lyrics.
Everyone racked their brains but couldn't figure out what was going on in Mu Gan's brain.
Could it be that after living with Yi Jingchen for a long time, he infected her and started practicing the little rooster selection method?
——Not really.
Mu Gan responded to everyone through the stage, and his choice was quite meaningful.
In the three and a half minutes of the stage, Mu Gan proved that he can not only perform original works, but also turn other people's works into his own style.
In addition to rap, as long as Mu Gan is given enough time, he can also dance without lagging behind.
Even if she is among a group of male dancers, she will not look out of place.
On the contrary, his outstanding rap skills made Mu Gan stand out too much on the group stage.
[Wow! Mu Gan is such a rap scoundrel. Once he opens his mouth, I can't hear anyone else.]
[I didn't expect that Nai Gan's boy group makeup is also suitable, awesome]
[The original singer of this song should be crying. It is conceivable that in the future, someone will definitely use the Nai Gan version to show off his presence.]
[I used to have a prejudice against Mu Gan, thinking that his personality wasn't suitable for a boy band, and that he couldn't seriously perform on stage...]
[It's normal to be prejudiced against Nai Gan. A few years ago, the entire Harry Potter community was prejudiced against him.]
[Naigan doesn't care, he said genius is always not understood by the world]
[That is to say, although Nai Gan has a casual personality, he is unexpectedly crazy. After all, he is a rapper.]
[So, are the fans here? Are you planning to debut Mu Gan?]
[My family didn't say anything. We don't even have a decent fan club. Just vote blindly.]
[Hahahaha! Milk powder and dry powder are going in both directions!]
When the rap sounded, no one could beat him in Mugan’s comfort zone.
When the on-site vote count was announced, Mu Gan directly surpassed the voting record held by Lu Ju and got just the right 520 votes.
The audience started to cheer and shouted "I love you" to Mu Gan.
"Do you really love me?" Mu Gan looked in the direction of the shout, "Then are you willing to abandon Yi Jingchen and throw yourself into my arms?"
"This... I'll think about it..." The elder sister of the Chen family, who had been talking big just now, was suddenly speechless.
"Ha ha ha ha!"
The audience nearby laughed like crazy.
"Yi Jingchen, come out and take care of your fan, she's about to go rogue!"
"ah?"
The camera cuts to Yi Jingchen at the right moment.
He hugged his original body with a very aggrieved expression.
"So, love disappears, right?"
The boastful Chen family sister got anxious and quickly shouted, "No climbing the wall, no climbing the wall! Chenchen, I love you the most~"
"Here, you see, don't you?" Mu Gan reasoned, "Don't trust someone who keeps saying 'love'. Who knows how precious you are to him?"
As soon as he finished speaking, a big brother came towards Mu Gan and shouted with full energy, "Mu Gan, I love you!"
Mu Gan looked at him, his expression showing a bit of disgust, "You are not a little sister, why do you love me?"
Male fans: "...Naigan, don't be so shameless!"
"Look." Mu Gan, the master of relationships, pointed at him and analyzed again, "Don't trust a man who keeps saying he loves you. He changes his mind faster than turning the pages of a book."
“Hahahahahaha!”
Backstage, Yi Jingchen laughed so hard that he curled up in his arms and almost fell off the stool.
[I’ve wasted my time studying. I’ve wasted my time studying.]
[I declare that from now on, Nai Gan will be my life mentor!]
Mu Gan left the stage amid wild laughter and angry insults from Gan's male fans, and was replaced by Li Jibai, who drew the fifth position.
He also chose the D/R track original group and participated in the creation throughout the process.
As soon as the props team started setting up the scene, the audience's expectations were already at full blast.
The audience who watched the live broadcast before all knew that Li Jibai brought a very excellent...
Missionary Divine Comedy.
The whole song is filled with a lot of two-dimensional elements and is very dense with memes.
Although the rap and dance are not difficult, each line of the lyrics has several memes. If you enter the field at a younger age, you will miss some of the key points.
It can be said that Li Jibai's rap is a must-read for all otakus and housegirls.
In the chorus, he also spent a lot of space describing the cat's fantasy hometown, and his efforts to convert the whole world into believers.
In the audience, there were many followers of the Cat Cult. Seeing that the Right Protector was working so hard to participate in the talent show, they couldn't help but shed tears for him.
[Little JB didn't forget to preach even though he was locked up. He's really... I cried my heart out.]
[Sisters! Calm down for a moment. Do you think it's okay to let little JB into the entertainment industry?]
[Preaching is not illegal, so what's the problem?]
Imagine other idols introducing themselves as "so-and-so, who loves singing and dancing." But Li Jibai introduces himself as "little JB, who loves to preach. I love to force people to follow my lead. I've already surrounded the entire entertainment industry. Please give up resistance and join the cult. I, the Right Protector, will protect you."
[Help! So demonic and so beastly, I want to see it]
[I want to see +1, the entertainment industry is always exporting it, it's time to let it feel the fear of being dominated by otaku culture]
[Am I the only one who thinks JB's rap is pretty good? It has so much content, but it doesn't sound cluttered, and the transitions are natural.]
[Right, right, right! The original D/R group is all dance leaders. I thought it would be doomed without Mu Gan, but I didn’t expect little JB to hold it up all by himself.]
[A top student is awesome and can do anything he wants]
[I'm thinking about following Little JB. Is there any sister who can recommend him to me? ]
Although Li Jibai participated in the creation and made a lot of contributions to the entire group, he attracted countless goodwill.
But the performance is only better than the stage performance.
His singing and dancing skills are slightly weaker than others, so he has a relatively low number of votes.
In the end, he didn't win the MVP of the group, let alone break the record for the most votes.
Li Jibai did not feel any regret. He seized the opportunity to canvass for votes and make speeches, and tried his best to preach to everyone.
Hearing him persist in preaching until the end, the audience couldn't help but sigh:
"Fortunately, little JB is a complete otaku."
"Yeah, if he accidentally gets involved in a pyramid scheme, with his abilities, he'll definitely be able to develop a lot of followers, right?"
"It's terrible to accidentally fall into a fraud ring, right?"
"Yeah, luckily he's a otaku!"
One sister raised her voice and shouted, "Little JB, accept your fate. Being a otaku is your best fate!"
When Li Jibai heard this, he pushed his glasses down silently and spoke seriously:
"Excuse me, are you interested in joining the church?"
audience:……
That's enough!
Seeing that Li Jibai was about to turn the performance into a preaching scene, the production crew quickly dragged him to the back.
Yi Jingchen held the cat in his arms, his eyes drifting away, pretending not to recognize his right protector.
Li Jibai seemed not to notice his escape, and walked straight towards Yi Jingchen with his long legs.
"Senior, you..."
Yi Jingchen quickly became alert and said, "I don't accept the missionary work, thank you."
“…” Li Jibai felt aggrieved.
[I don’t intend to preach to you.]
"Ahem." Yi Jingchen realized that his reaction was too abrupt, cleared his throat and asked, "What are you going to say?"
"Senior, you're going to the waiting room soon. Do you need me to hold your body for you?"
"Meow!" The main body raised its tail and looked straight at Yi Jingchen with its beautiful amber eyes.
Help me, shit scooper!
I don’t want to be preached to!
Unfortunately, Yi Jingchen couldn't understand the cat's language.
It just so happened that he had been acting as a cat stand for most of the day and was already tired, so he simply put his real body into Li Jibai's arms.
Li Jibai held the cat in his arms, sitting upright in the main body's exclusive reaction opportunity.
Three minutes later, he lowered his eyes to look back at his main body and asked a soul-searching question:
"Main body, do you know there's a cat cult in the world?"
"Meow!" The original body let out a miserable cry, missing its original cat stand terribly.
'Cat Stand' Yi Jingchen was not deliberately avoiding.
Li Jibai's performance was over, and there were only two and a half stages left before it was their turn.
Before going on stage, everyone needs to focus on the final things, make adjustments and communicate.
The next stage had the highest number of votes hovering around 400, which did not exceed Mu Gan's record.
In the second half of the performance, the audience began to lose interest and their enthusiasm for voting declined. It is estimated that the number of votes would be unlikely to exceed 520.
Yi Jingchen thought so and came to the waiting area, where he found the seventh group of trainees from the V/R track performing on the stage.
Except for the original group, the other groups in the V/R track only have six trainees, and they adopt a 'double C' standing position, with two people in the middle during the group dance.
The C position on the left is You Lingyu, who is also responsible for revising and writing lyrics, and relies on his strength to stand in the C position.
The C position on the right is a bit confusing, it turns out to be Yan Zhichen who came to "Super Idol" to apply for a job.
After Yan Zhichen made his announcement, that explosive declaration became a hot topic and several kindergartens did indeed make offers.
However, after Yan Zhichen came into contact with those people, he found that they did not want to hire him as a kindergarten teacher, but wanted to use his image and influence to recruit more new students.
Yan Zhichen, who just wanted to be a teacher quietly, rejected those offers and continued to prepare for the performance resignedly.
Although he is not a professional trainee, he was sent by the company to take a few idol classes before participating in the show.
Furthermore, Yan Zhichen himself is very resilient, the more difficult the situation, the more he can persevere. Furthermore, his experience as a teacher has given him a strong sense of mission, and he must do his part well.
Yan Zhichen relied on his momentum to get another C and stood in the same prominent position as You Lingyu.
He entered the circle in the second public performance, but his ranking is not high at this stage and there are few fans at the scene.
After the performance, several people shouted Yan Zhichen's name and cast their only vote for him.
When the final vote count was announced, You Lingyu and Yan Zhichen had almost the same number of votes, both with more than 300 votes, which was seriously inconsistent with their current rankings.
Someone at the scene got anxious and shouted to the camera, "Everyone, please save Teacher Xiaoyan! If Teacher Xiaoyan is eliminated, we won't be able to hear his speech for advancing!"
"That's right!" The person next to him echoed, "Save Teacher Xiaoyan. Promotion is secondary. I want to hear his job application speech."
Dust of Smoke: ...?
Yi Jingchen stretched his neck and couldn't help but sigh.
[On "Super Idol," everyone has their own unique way of breaking out.]
There was another team in front of Yi Jingchen.
While waiting, Yi Jingchen saw a familiar figure and ran over to poke him on the back.
"elder brother!"
Shu Lang turned around and saw that it was his silly silver-colored brother. He took off his earphones and asked him if he was ready.
Yi Jingchen replied cutely, "Okay~"
Shu Lang was a little worried. He looked down at his radio equipment, then at his shoelaces and in-ear monitor, and asked Yi Jingchen to check it twice more.
Before I could finish my instructions, I was stopped by the staff next to me and told to get ready to go on stage.
"I'll go upstairs first. See you backstage later." Shu Lang waved at him hurriedly.
"Go ahead and don't worry about me!" Yi Jingchen pushed his back and rushed Shu Lang onto the stage.
Originally, he just came over to say hello.
After being checked from head to toe by Shu Lang, Yi Jingchen couldn't help but feel nervous.
He was afraid that Shu Lang had just been wasting his time on him, which would affect his own performance.
As it turned out, Yi Jingchen's premonition was indeed wrong.
Shu Lang participated in "Super Idol" with the goal of making his debut, and he always made full preparations.
If you have 100 points of strength, you will exert 120% of your strength.
The song they chose, "Four Seasons Morning and Dusk", is also a classic. Fortunately, the threshold for cover is not as high as "Ye Zeng Zhao Zhao", and it is a boy group song that is very in line with local characteristics.
Shu Lang and his teammates re-arranged the stage to make it more suitable for the performance environment, and they have been training hard over the past few days, striving for everyone to achieve perfection.
Even at the last moment, the audience was still infected by Shu Lang's enthusiasm and explosive momentum.
The final results were announced. Only a dozen people in the "Four Seasons Morning and Evening" group abstained from voting, and Shu Lang received a high vote of 521, once again breaking the record for the highest number of votes.
[Shulang is awesome! Sisters, please look at the children!]
[Respect, well-deserved, Shu Lang is a bit too hard]
[Stupid Xiaochen was happily interacting with his brother just now, but now he's dumbfounded, right? You two are rivals!]
Can the original V/D group surpass "Four Seasons Morning and Evening"?
[It's difficult. The original song of "Four Seasons Morning and Dusk" is top-notch and cannot be compared with the level of the trainees' creations. And Shu Lang is the big C, used to support the stage, so the votes will definitely be concentrated on him.]
[Speaking of the point, Shu Lang is worthy of being a C. The original V/D already has two big TOPs, Xingtu, and has a built-in death ticket debuff. Add in Yi Jingchen, emmm... this little loser really can't be a big C.]
[Think positively. Original V/D has a high initial popularity, so even if you make a mistake, your ranking won't drop too much.]
Fans of the original V/D group comforted each other and waited anxiously for the lights to come on.
After waiting for a long time, the lights in the venue did not come on.
Instead, through the dim backlight from the white screen at the back of the stage, six silhouettes were dancing to an out-of-beat rhythm.
The live accompaniment has begun.
At first, everyone thought that the original V/D group had a bad opening and danced to the wrong beat.
After seeing the two beat-keeping machines of Du Xingwei and Tian Xitu, they were sure that this dance had not been able to keep a unified beat from the very beginning.
After two beats of the prelude, a beam of light finally appeared on the scene, shining on Yi Jingchen in front of the screen.
He was wearing a red dress with no discernible design.
From a distance, it looks like a blurry mass of flesh and blood.
He brought the microphone closer and slowly uttered a syllable from his pale lips.
"Hey."
"Dear Mom and Dad."
"Did you expect me?"
As the last note faded, the huge curtain behind him fell one by one along with Yi Jingchen's singing.
“I hope every child can receive great love.”
"No matter if you are rich or poor, or the color of your skin."
"Even if we come from different countries, even if we believe in different religions, even if there are many obstacles."
Yi Jingchen looked towards the camera, his eyes were clear, but hidden in them was the reality he had witnessed before.
He sang softly:
"Even if she's a girl."
He paused for a moment.
The accompaniment was filled with the desperate cries of the baby girl, and the six teammates piled their bodies into a rotten tower.
“We need love.”
“Always need love.”
[…Yi Jingchen, don’t be so bold]
[Who understands? I cried after listening to the first paragraph]
The saddest thing is that this part was sung by an unexpected child.
[Don't use the knife, people will die if they are stabbed! ]
[Uh, is everyone crying? I'd like to discuss the lyrics. Yi Jingchen's lyrics cover the conflicts between the rich and the poor, race, class, politics, culture, faith, and gender. All the evil in the world often stems from these conflicts.]
【We all live in the same world, why do we have to oppose each other? 】
