Three public demo
"ah……!!!"
Yi Jingchen's speaking time ended. He sniffed slightly and turned to walk towards the fourth place.
Halfway up the stairs, he suddenly stopped and took out a square piece of paper from his pocket.
"I've forgotten all the speeches I wrote!"
[I stayed up all night to finish the manuscript!]
[Written in vain again!]
“Puff—”
Everyone started another thigh-pinching competition, trying hard not to laugh.
It's indeed a stupid silver tabby, not very smart.
"Never mind, let's save it for next time!" Yi Jingchen stuffed the speech back into his pocket and ran over to sit in the fourth seat, right next to Shu Lang who was in the fifth seat.
Shu Lang reached out and stroked his brother's fur lovingly.
"I told you you could advance."
"Brother!" Yi Jingchen happily leaned forward and whispered softly, "This position is so high."
Shu Lang pointed upwards and told Yi Jingchen seriously, "It's higher up there. If you want to continue climbing, you can't show your weakness here."
Yi Jingchen nodded seriously, moved back and sat up straight, looking very confident.
Everyone looked at him, then looked at Shu Lang next to him, and understood in a concrete way what it meant to "a cat borrowing the power of a tiger to bully others."
In the live broadcast room, Chen's sister was doting.
[Forget it, I'll just be a little stupid]
["Super Idol" doesn't stipulate that idiots can't sit in the center position]
Support diversity in talent shows! Previous C-positions have always been dominated by the big devil ACE, so it's time for the little fool to take the top spot (bushi)
Yi Jingchen is only fourth, reaching the summit in his dream. He should surpass the three in front first before reaching the summit.
[Hey~ Little Blackie also knows your father's TOP 4, I'm going to make you mad~~~]
Even though Yi Jingchen had a strong momentum and won the fourth place for the first time, it still did not change the three-way competition pattern of this year's "Super Idol".
Halfway through the draft, the Mugan family is still a mess, without a proper fan club or organization. They rely entirely on individual fans to vote and friends in the circle to canvass for votes.
Mostly due to this reason, Mu Gan's popularity continued to rise without falling behind, but the number of votes did not increase much compared to before, only 2 million more votes than Yi Jingchen.
If the second phase of the rankings were closed a few days later, and "The Seven Deadly Sins and Babel" was a big hit, Yi Jingchen might really have had a chance to challenge his position.
Mu Gan didn't care about it at all and still looked casual and relaxed.
He walked slowly to the speaking area, but did not speak immediately. Instead, he turned around to look at his roommates who had already taken their seats.
"I never ask myself if I'm a qualified idol."
Mu Gan turned around and gave a clear answer:
"Because I know I'm not."
"Ha ha ha ha!"
Everyone at the scene and in the live broadcast room burst into laughter. Thinking of Yi Jingchen who just said that he "often asks himself whether he is a qualified idol" and hopes that he "is", one can't help but sigh that there are two extreme individuals living under the same roof.
"Meow!" The main body angrily made its presence felt, emphasizing that it also lived under that roof.
Suddenly, the laughter at the scene became even more rampant.
Mu Gan waited until they had laughed enough before continuing, "When I was in the rap circle, I never asked myself if I was a qualified rapper."
"I think there is no so-called standard definition for these industries."
"I, you, and they are all arranged objects."
The "you" that Mu Gan singled out did not seem to refer to anyone in particular.
Everyone agreed that he should be talking to his roommate Yi Jingchen.
Yi Jingchen thought so too, and looked at the back of Mu Gan's head from afar.
[The back of the milk-dryer's head is so round!]
[Babies must have rolled around a lot!]
Mu Gan: ...
I'm talking to you about life, and you're talking to me about the back of your head?
Mu Gan was silent for two seconds and continued, "The industry we are in relies on market feedback. If the audience thinks you are qualified, no matter what you look like, you are qualified."
“Don’t question yourself.”
Mu Gan always sticks to his original intention, has maximum insensitivity, and will never waste time on internal consumption.
The other trainees couldn't help but envy his state and assumed:
Mu Gan will always remain like this, not fighting or competing, just going with the flow.
Unexpectedly, Mu Gan changed the subject and continued, "However, if you ask me now whether I want to form a group, my balance will tilt a little bit towards 'yes'."
Mu Gan pinched his index finger and thumb to make a tiny thing the size of a sesame seed.
Even if it was just a little bit, it shocked Mugan’s fans.
I knew it earlier, Mu Gan likes to battle and has never lost, purely because he is relaxed and strong.
From the past to the present, Mu Gan himself does not have much desire to win or lose, and will not pursue the so-called "victory".
Even when participating in the draft, he was not in the state of being "in competition".
Instead, in the battlefield where everyone is the king, they have become a peaceful and clean stream.
At this moment, Mu Gan said that he wanted to form a group.
Even if it was just a thought, it meant that he had decided to join the battle and pursue victory.
The undefeated miracle Ziweixing in the Ha circle has officially joined the battle!
Everyone's eyes fell on Mu Gan, curious about why he had such a change.
Mu Gan just turned around and looked at several places on the top of the pyramid.
"It's quite interesting."
After saying that, he smiled at the camera.
"Thank you to those who voted for me~"
Then, he put down the microphone, walked back to the debut position leisurely, and high-fived a few familiar trainees.
In the ranking pyramid of "Super Idol", the top level is the C position that everyone aspires to, and the second row is 2nd from the left and 3rd from the right.
Mu Gan finished third, several steps higher than Yi Jingchen.
He walked all the way to the third row, then suddenly stopped and looked down at Yi Jingchen who was sitting on the next level.
"We will be rivals from now on." Mu Gan said to Yi Jingchen in an ambiguous tone.
"Huh?" the idiot Silver Gradient asked, bewildered. "Do I need to draw a 38th parallel inside the room? Can I send my real body over there to secretly monitor the enemy?"
Mu Gan's serious expression returned to normal in an instant.
"Can't."
"...Then what should we do? It's hard for the main body to avoid crossing the line."
Mu Gan corrected him, "I mean, you can't draw the 38th parallel."
Ahhhhh (meaningless scream)
I've always thought the Gan family was disorganized and undisciplined, so their vote count wouldn't be high. I didn't expect that as soon as Nai Gan decided to join the war, Gan fans were already setting up fan clubs and voting groups. With that kind of efficiency, they're like special forces soldiers per capita.
I love the roommate line! Even being rivals doesn't affect our friendship.
[The sister above is so good at talking!!! I was just wondering what the conversation between Nai Gan and the stupid Xiao Chen meant.]
[u1s1, the atmosphere between the TOPs this year is so wonderful~ There is no intrigue and hatred among the fans in previous years, leading to the tension and hostility between fans]
[Yes!!! I really like this year's debut scene. The cute Star Rabbit has been so stable and composed, which has prevented the fans of the two top members from fighting. 34 is a roommate line, 45 is brothers, and the others have good relationships too. The little JB who is blocking the spot is an old pervert.]
[Zhuo Wenjie kicked out, the debut circle can debut in the same place]
[I agree with the above, but their current ranking... probably needs a major reshuffle]
[+1, Nai Gan just announced his participation in the competition, and his fan club was immediately formed and immediately called for the C position. As expected of a Ha Ren fan, they are really brave.]
[I didn't argue before because Nagan didn't express his stance. Now the main character has said he wants to debut. Do you think those crazy people in the entertainment industry are easy to deal with? ? ?]
[Exciting, exciting, the two TOP entangled plot is getting tired. In the third stage, cat fans and fans of Ha circle enter in large numbers, and the main ranking will definitely be very fierce.]
Veteran fans had already foreseen the bloody storm in the third stage. Seeing Du Xingwei and Tian Xitu tugging and tugging at each other as they walked to the promotion zone, a sentence popped into their minds:
The last calm before the storm.
Du Xingwei happily arrived at the promotion area and turned to ask He Yidong, "Teacher He, are there any tough talk segments this time?"
"Of course." He Yidong touched the assistant teacher beside him, "The premise is that you have to be as fierce as the original teacher."
"Meow!" The assistant teacher had been recording for several hours but had not yet received the cat footage as salary, so he let out a fierce roar like a beast.
When Du Xingwei and Tian Xitu saw the cat's fangs, the two little cuties shook their heads in unison.
[Lose, lose.]
"Then stop making threats." He Yidong took out a cat strip from his pocket, tore it open and fed it to his main body, while picking up the envelope containing the last two ranking cards.
"The difference in votes between the first and second place trainees in this round was very small, only 200,000."
When they heard 'the difference in votes is very small', everyone became nervous.
'200,000' is a difference of several places in the card circle.
However, for the top, the gap can only be made up in half an hour.
Everyone looked at He Yidong, waiting for him to announce the results.
"The trainee who won first place will receive a total of 37.5 million..."
"hiss--"
"Xingtu is indeed the top one. He cut off the milk of the third place and made a full 10 million."
"The difference between them is only 200,000, which is 37 million each. Is this a fight between gods?"
"37 million, that's a lot of votes." Yi Jingchen muttered quietly, secretly calculating his own number of votes.
[Huh…?]
[It seems the difference isn't that big.]
Chen's sister gave him a very high score, which made Yi Jingchen a little arrogant and he even thought he could do it too.
In this regard, Chen's sister and cat chef expressed their satisfaction.
Kittens should be proud!
Why can't we stupid silver shaded ones do this!
The cat fans were even more excited, rubbing their hands in anticipation for the pick list to open, so as to escort their own leader to the throne.
He Yidong released a bunch of smoke bombs before slowly revealing the final suspense.
"Congratulations, Du Xingwei!"
"Wow!"
"Senior is first!"
Yi Jingchen jumped up and said, "Congratulations to Senior Mushroom and Bunny~"
Tian Xitu dropped to second place, but did not show any jealousy or anger. Instead, he smiled and congratulated Du Xingwei, and the two hugged each other.
He Yidong waited until they finished hugging before continuing to announce, "Also, congratulations to Tian Xitu for receiving 37,324,675 votes and placing second in the second stage pick list. Please share your thoughts."
Tian Xitu walked to the speaking area and was about to speak.
Over at the waiting table, the 48 series members, who had been relying on their old reputation, had not attracted any new fans, and had just lost the big blood bag Tian Xitu, deliberately annoyed him, covering their mouths and shouting "Always the runner-up".
The voice was not loud, but everyone was waiting for Tian Xitu to speak, so they could hear it clearly.
Yi Jingchen looked in the direction of the sound and couldn't help feeling a little angry.
[Who is it?]
[Mocking Bunny for always being number two, you're not even number two!]
The rabbit moms worked hard to vote, but still ended up losing slightly.
Although they all say they respect the results, their emotions are inevitably negative.
Hearing the taunt of "eternal runner-up" again, Rabbit Mom recalled her previous defeats and almost lost her mind.
Fortunately, Yi Jingchen said a few words, and they followed this line of thought and felt relieved.
right!
They worked so hard to get to second place, but those trash couldn't even touch the qualifying line!
There's already a pathetically thick barrier between them, there's no need to give them the eye!
Tian Xitu also heard the voice of "eternally second best", but he did not get angry and did not respond.
He has terminated his contract with the 48 series and has nothing to do with his former company since then. He is even too lazy to get involved with his former group members.
"Hello everyone, I'm Tian Xitu, a trainee from Nyanya Entertainment."
Tian Xitu introduced himself in a new way, and the meaning is self-evident.
Danmu Chi felt relieved, and the faces of the "seniors" who had just mocked him for always being the runner-up instantly turned dark.
Yi Jingchen let out an inappropriate "ah".
[It’s over! ]
[I forgot to tell you the company name!]
Everyone: ...You are a bit stupid, so you can be forgiven.
Tian Xitu raised the corners of his lips and showed a relaxed smile. "I am really happy that I can stand in this position thanks to my own efforts and those of my supporters."
"We are not afraid of losing, as long as the result is fair and square."
Tian Xitu put away his smile, his eyes firm and sharp, "Besides, I didn't lose at all."
"We are getting closer to the stage of our dreams. Thank you everyone!"
[Aaaaah! Rabbit Mommy burst into tears! My Rabbit has really grown rapidly since coming to "Super Idol" and now dares to speak out my thoughts.]
【We! Didn’t lose!】
[Those idiots in the 48th division are clueless. Bunny is a loser if he's second, so what are they worth if they're 35th or higher?]
[Stop! The remnants of the 48 series have been completely eliminated. From now on, Rabbit has cut ties with that lousy place forever!]
[Tu Ma congratulates Du Xingwei for winning first place, and will compete again in the third stage pick list]
[Xing Ma said that the Rabbit sister is really strong. We are afraid of being surpassed even in our dreams. Three-straight battle, let's all cheer for each other.]
[Wow~ Two TOP fans are praising each other commercially, just passing by and taking a bite]
@Yi Jingchen fans, I've told you eight hundred times that the Star Rabbit and Rabbit families are rivals, don't buy into everything!!!
Tian Xitu took a few steps back to make room for the speech.
In the second stage, the pink circle was successfully abused, and Du Xingwei, who won the first place in an unstoppable manner, walked to the front of the host position.
"Super Idol" is Du Xingwei's first time recording a variety show. He is young and inexperienced, so he can't say too many polite words.
Although the program team reminded that he could prepare a speech in advance, Du Xingwei did not do so.
He can’t say anything profound, and his fans know that he has a simple nature and speaks bluntly.
It is difficult to incorporate your own emotions if you write a speech in advance and read it aloud.
Du Xingwei first thanked his mentors and fans, and then went on to report on his own growth.
I learned a lot at the recording base, made a lot of friends, and grew a few tenths of a centimeter taller.
After mumbling a lot, he paused for a few seconds before continuing.
"Actually, I feel a lot of pressure standing in this position."
"But I know that the mothers love me. So I will work hard to be more mature and steady so that I can take on this position."
"Thank you!"
[Ahhh! I'm so touched. Du Xingxing is such a mom-fan favorite.]
[No no no! Stars, don’t be mature. We like you to be children.]
[Being in the center position means facing more cameras and having to speak more. I feel the pressure from Mushroom Sunbae. However, the child didn't say "I don't want to be the center" this time. I think he felt the fans' efforts and didn't want to spoil your fun.]
[I don’t want to put too much pressure on Mushroom, but I also want the best for him. Xing’s mom is really conflicted.]
[Don't be so contradictory! Stage C is definitely the best spot! As for daily speeches and dealing with the camera, you can find a spokesperson within the team and we'll just go for it.]
[Official spokesperson, Yi Jingchen is actually quite good. Those gossip media and unscrupulous marketing accounts wouldn't dare to say a word when they meet the melon god.]
[It's too early to discuss the official spokesperson now. And how can you be so sure that Yi Jingchen can't legitimately become the official spokesperson?]
[9494, it's not too late to discuss after the three-shun is over]
Du Xingwei and Tian Xitu walked up the pyramid together, and Du Xingwei happily interacted with everyone.
When he got to Yi Jingchen, he rushed over and hugged him.
Du Xingwei: "Hey, I can play with big wings!"
Yi Jingchen: "What big wings?"
"Wait, let me show you~" Du Xingwei jumped to his seat and just sat down when festive BGM sounded immediately.
Then, a pair of large wings spread out on both sides of the seat like a peacock spreading its tail.
Every time the rankings of the S-series draft are announced, some strange special effects are added to the C position, and this year it is particularly exaggerated.
Yi Jingchen stared at the large, glittering wings behind Du Xingwei and couldn't help but grumble, "Wow, a mushroom taking off! A flying mushroom!"
“Puff…”
An uncontrollable voice sounded nearby.
"That's enough, stop making me laugh!"
Du Xingwei's big wings flashed for three minutes before ending this extravagant ceremony.
The trainees in the waiting area, seeing the already full pyramid, sighed and grimaced, ready to pack their bags and bury their dreams.
He Yidong did not leave. He put down the script card in his hand and patiently fed all the cat strips in his pocket to the original body.
The main body was so full of food that it became like a harlequin cat, with its belly turned out in satisfaction, allowing He Yidong to rub it, without any moral integrity at all.
He Yidong picked up the main body, strode towards the pyramid with his long legs, and placed the dazed main body in seat '36' next to it.
He Yidong stretched out his index finger and tapped the tip of the original body's ear.
"Now, it's up to you to decide who owns this position." Having said this, he looked up and called out the name of the original master, "Yi Jingchen."
"Here." Yi Jingchen stood up slowly. Everyone then remembered that there was a position numbered '36' that led directly to the third round, and they hurriedly seized the opportunity to establish a relationship with Yi Jingchen.
"Yi Jingchen, choose me, choose me!"
"My, my, my, we are from the same hometown!"
"Choose me. I also believe in your cult...hiss! Who's pulling me?"
"Just shut up! Pretending to be a believer is a big no-no! You can't talk about that publicly, or else you'll be torn to pieces by his followers after you're eliminated."
The other trainees who had evil thoughts gave up the idea and begged Yi Jingchen honestly for mercy.
Yi Jingchen had just sat in the waiting area and had been thinking about this question for a long time.
He Yidong is right. He is not a savior and cannot make fair and objective judgments from God's perspective.
The next choice you make is based on your own will.
He can only make this choice the most reasonable within the scope of his will.
Try your best not to let the stage down, not to let the audience down, and not to let down the position you have won.
"Please be quiet for a moment."
Yi Jingchen calmed them down and said:
"I'm going to ask you three questions. Think about your answers in your head. If your answers are all yes, raise your hands. I'll make a choice among those who raised their hands."
When the trainees in the waiting area heard him say this, they thought Yi Jingchen was going to ask about the old-fashioned things like "hard work", "sweat", and "dreams", and they all prepared to raise their hands.
However, they overlooked the fact that Yi Jingchen was a journalist and had his own logic for asking questions.
A few seconds later, the first question he asked eliminated more than half of the people.
"Many of you think you didn't advance because you were 'unappreciated'."
"In the past two months, with the entire Super Idol live broadcast, with everyone able to see it, does anyone think that their lack of exposure led to their failure to advance?"
After the words were spoken, the whole place was silent.
Indeed, in previous years, after many trainees were eliminated, the most common thing they said was "no footage".
They blame all the problems on the lack of camera, and believe that as long as the exposure is high enough, they can get the C position.
This year, "Super Idol" will use 'full live broadcast' to awaken the dreams of those 'hidden pearls in the ocean'.
For the same panoramic shots, the audience would rather pay to recharge VIP and move the camera away than stay on them for too long.
The cruel reality tells them the truth:
Even if they are given enough screen time, trainees who complain about everything, blame their failure on the environment, and refuse to improve themselves are not attractive to the audience.
Facing silence, Yi Jingchen asked a second question:
"Is there anyone who worked harder than 90% of the trainees who advanced in the first two performances and thinks they can advance based on their hard work?"
Yi Jingchen raised the question, and the program team quickly pulled out a table, which was the official statistics of the "trainee training time table."
During the first public performance, Yi Jingchen was caught up in a scandal involving wealthy families and missed two days, but his training time still ranked in the top ten.
In the second public performance, his training time has already ranked first.
Looking from top to bottom, the contestants at the front are all those who are considered to have "a fan base" and "can win easily".
There are not many trainees outside the qualifying circle on the list, and only one person stands out.
He practiced for two stages and finished in the top three in both. However, due to the popularity of the "job hunting" meme, everyone thought he wasn't interested in this, and his efforts were ignored.
Facing the silent waiting area, Yi Jingchen asked the last question:
“Who thinks they deserve the promotion more than anyone else?”
"In other words, who thinks the production team really owes you a spot in the finals?"
As the voice fell, the whole audience fell into silence.
The boy who was clamoring for connections just now seemed to finally realize that his elimination was justified.
Yi Jingchen waited patiently for two minutes before looking away. He looked at He Yidong and said, "Teacher He, I have decided..."
Before he could finish his words, a hand was raised on the other side.
Yan Zhichen thought for a long time before slowly raising his hand.
"I."
When Yi Jingchen saw him raise his hand, he immediately changed his tone and said, "I have decided to give that position to Yan Zhichen."
"Okay, t." He Yidong picked up the rolling main body and moved to the side. "No. 36 will not have the opportunity to make a speech. Please sit down in your seat directly."
"Okay." Yan Zhichen had no objection and quickly walked to that seat and sat down.
When others saw that the position was given to Yan Zhichen, they were envious, but also felt that they could not envy enough.
After all, the length of time they practice is there.
He Yidong once again congratulated all the trainees who advanced. The ranking announcement has ended here, and the mentors should have finished their work.
He still didn't leave. He asked the program crew for a note and handed it to Yan Zhichen.
"Every trainee who advances has their own ranking card. This one is yours." He Yidong told him, "Your original ranking was—"
"36."
Yan Zhichen saw the number and vote count on the card and was stunned for a moment, confirming that he was indeed just one step away from advancing.
He took it and said thank you solemnly.
"You're wrong. I'm not the one you should thank."
He Yidian curled his eyes.
"It's Yi Jingchen, and you who raised your hand just now."
[Woo woo woo! I've been poked by Teacher He again, this sinful man!]
He used his actions to tell Teacher Xiaoyan: Your advancement didn’t mean you stole someone else’s opportunity.
[Speaking of whose opportunity was stolen, @Zihan's mom, can your Zihan sit still? ]
[Right!!! His Zihan doesn't need to spend money to advance to the next level, so Teacher Xiaoyan can advance openly.]
Xiaoyan and You Lingyu's double C performance was absolutely stunning! The entire entertainment industry was clamoring for him! It's a shame the rankings were closed the day after the performance, otherwise Xiaoyan would definitely have made it into the top 35.
Fortunately, the Melon God rescued Teacher Xiaoyan, otherwise there would be another person who had their dream stolen this year.
[Basic Exercise~ My cat only loves to protect dreams]
He Yidong left the auditorium, marking the official end of the second ranking announcement. The rest of the time was left for the trainees to say goodbye to each other.
Yi Jingchen was lucky, as none of his friends from the original V/D group left.
Among the friends made at the recording base and the trainees who collaborated with me in the first public performance, only Fu Zheng and Yuan Yazhou left.
Fu Zheng is a typical example of someone who played a good hand badly. He had the potential to get an A in both the initial stage and the theme song, but because he competed with Yi Jingchen, he lost three games and missed the opportunity.
Later, he wanted to seize the initiative in the weaker group, which resulted in him being out of place in the "Yangmao" group and his ranking falling all the way.
During the second public performance, he was exposed by his former colleagues, which was almost like a collapse of his reputation.
Fu Zheng knew that there was no hope of advancing, so he completely gave up in the second stage, dragging down the entire group.
Now that he's been eliminated, none of his friends who performed in the two previous performances came to see him off.
However, several friends from the "Yangmao" group gathered around Yuan Yazhou.
The eliminated contestants around were crying, and Yuan Yazhou was surrounded by them, smiling and saying that he was fine.
"I've confirmed that I'm not cut out to be an idol. I'm going back to learn rap from my brother."
"Okay." Shu Lang hugged him, "Looking forward to your rap."
Yuan Yazhou complained, "It's definitely better than your Northeastern rap!"
"Haha, I'm the best rapper in Northeast China!"
After seeing Yuan Yazhou off, everyone turned and walked into the auditorium.
Yan Zhichen deliberately slowed down a few steps, fell behind the crowd, and looked for an opportunity to thank Yi Jingchen.
"You're welcome, that position should have been yours~" Yi Jingchen was happier than Yan Zhichen himself when he knew that Yan Zhichen was originally ranked 36th.
Before he made his choice, he quietly listed some qualified candidates, with Yan Zhichen ranking first.
The reason why I didn't make a direct choice was mainly because Yan Zhichen is a kindergarten teacher and his comfort zone is not here.
Yi Jingchen was curious and asked next to him, "Teacher Xiaoyan, do you want to stay?"
"Yeah. It's winter now, and the school year hasn't ended yet, so it's hard to find a job as a teacher." Yan Zhichen nodded and told Yi Jingchen with reason and evidence, "Besides, we are quite similar in some ways."
"Which level?"
Yan Zhichen said, "Even though I came here not because of my own intention, I still want to work hard to be a good idol."
Yi Jingchen suddenly understood.
[Yes!]
We could have been applying for civil service positions hand in hand, but now we're here participating in a talent show!
Yan Zhichen said softly, "I'm not sure how far I can go. But if I give up halfway, how can I set an example for my students in the future?"
"Well! Keep going, Teacher Xiaoyan!" Yi Jingchen said whimsically, "If you eventually debut as a group, I can tell my little one about 'the years I was in a boy band' during class."
Yan Zhichen didn't have much confidence, "It's still too far away to form a group..."
"You just said we're very similar! I dare to dream of being the center, why don't you dare to dream of being in a group?" Yi Jingchen frowned and asked a soul-searching question, "Can being in a group be as difficult as taking the exam for a program?"
Yan Zhichen calculated quickly in his mind.
Last year, the passing rate for the civil service exam was only 1.5%, but with 9 members selected from 105, the probability of debuting is as high as 8.5%!
——Nearly six times higher!
Yan Zhichen concluded, "It's still more difficult to get a civil service exam."
"Right, we're all brave enough to challenge the exam, so let's try to warm up by having a higher probability of forming a group."
"good!"
Behind them, the "Super Idol" crew who left with them all had complicated expressions on their faces.
It turns out that the debut rate of our "Super Idol" is still too high.
.
After the second ranking announcement, Yi Jingchen and Mu Gan’s dormitory remained unchanged.
He took the sleeping body from the staff, returned to the dormitory and put on the red training uniform.
When he walked out of the dormitory building again, he saw all the trainees gathered around a car, saying goodbye with tears in their eyes.
[Who is in the car crying so hard?]
Yi Jingchen was curious and went over to take a look. He found that He Yidong was packing up his things and preparing to leave in the car.
The trainees were clapping at the car windows, howling like ghosts and wolves:
"Teacher He, are you really leaving?"
"We are in the third stage and there are no more flight instructors."
"My contract has expired, and I have other announcements coming up," He Yidong explained helplessly. "As for the flight instructor for the third phase, I heard they've already hired him."
"Here you are?" Everyone was immediately alert. "Who is so fearless?"
"The production team hasn't officially announced it yet, so I don't know the specific cast." Seeing their desperate attempts to persuade him to stay, He Yidong had no choice but to reveal in advance, "I will return as a guest on the night of the finals."
"Really? Teacher He, will you come back?"
He Yidong: "Besides me, the seniors who debuted last year will also join the final night."
The trainees didn’t seem that excited when they heard that their seniors were joining them.
Yi Jingchen felt strange and asked Cen Hao beside him, "Don't you all welcome the seniors? They were so eager to grab their songs."
"The work and the creator are two different things," Cen Hao explained subtly. "Last year's senior group... had more personality."
Li Xingzhou, who was standing nearby, took over the conversation, "More than just personality? They've been named the top male group in the country, and everyone on the team is a villain."
"Everyone is evil!"
Yi Jingchen suddenly became interested.
“I want to interview them!”
"Yi Jingchen, behave yourself." Shu Lang came over and held Yi Jingchen down. "Curiosity kills the cat. The seniors will really beat you up."
"...The senior students are so violent?" Yi Jingchen instantly became a coward.
Poor, weak, and asking for a beating.
"Hey, you guys."
He Yidong raised his voice and called them, waving to a few people, "See you in the finals."
Everyone immediately responded, "Hey, mentor, see you in the finals!"
After seeing off their hard-working mentor He Yidong, the younger brothers, who didn't have to send their teammates off or move dormitories, were left with nothing to do and felt extremely bored.
Just at this moment, someone shouted and informed everyone that the list of songs for the third public performance of "Super Idol" had been released.
The trainees had already heard that the song selection for this year's third public performance would be done by audience voting to choose the best demo.
Everyone couldn't help but wonder what amazing demo the audience had chosen?
Yi Jingchen's appreciation for boy band music is really limited.
Since I like to join in the fun, I went over to find the staff to see what was going on.
"Super Idol" has been recorded for more than two months, and several staff members in the data department have become familiar with the trainees.
Seeing them rushing in in such large numbers, I knew what they were up to without even asking.
"You're quite well-informed. We just closed the rankings and you came here to get information."
The data department staff is clearing the list.
The part he is responsible for is only the demo number, which does not involve the trainees and specific rankings, so there is nothing to hide.
The intern, like a secret agent, stretched his neck intentionally or unintentionally, glanced at the computer screen in front of him, and quickly memorized the first six numbers.
"41, 74, 25, 60, 9, 83."
The person at the front secretly passed information to the trainees at the back.
The trainees behind him were stunned and grumbled quietly, "What's the point of just telling me the number?"
The trainee leading the charge was a little impatient. "All I can see here are the numbers and votes. Song 41 is way ahead of the rest, and the others are pretty close."
"41 is so strong? It must be a god-like demo."
"What's the point of a magical demo? We only know the number 41, but we can't hear the song."
"41?" Yi Jingchen poked his head out and pointed at himself. "It's my birthday."
"Okay, okay, don't make trouble for now."
"I'm busy, who cares about your birthday?"
"...Okay." Yi Jingchen shrank back aggrievedly.
At this moment, although he had not heard the demo of song 41, he developed a lot of good feelings about it because of the number.
——After all, it’s my birthday!
The music department staff had a day off today, so everyone had to beg the guy from the data department to play the demo secretly.
More and more trainees gathered in the data department, and the staff was annoyed by them and had no choice but to open the demo audition page.
"The program team has a rule that we can't let you listen to the songs before they're selected." The staff member turned the screen around. "I only have a 15-second demo, so just listen to it."
After that, he played the selected demo number '9' first.
According to the rules set by the program team, the first 15 tracks are purely vocal, and tracks 16-30 are purely rap.
The third public performance must include a vocal and a rap. Trainees who were not in these two tracks quickly skimmed over it and urged the staff to play the song with the highest number of votes, 41, as it was far ahead of the rest.
Staff, move your mouse and click to play the legendary 41.
Even though the demo is only 15 seconds long, everyone can guess who this song is for the moment the accompaniment starts.
"I have fallen in the depths of the abyss."
“I also used to hate my tiny self.”
"Deprived of personality, irrefutable, unwilling to live in disgrace."
"I broke into the country you built in a trance."
"I will lead you to me and worship you as a god, regardless of right or wrong."
After the 15-second demo ended, everyone's attention immediately turned to Yi Jingchen, who was still struggling with the number.
Until Li Jibai broke the silence and expressed his thoughts:
"Can I vote for this song for senior?"
