After Xiao Lu announced the draw results, Xu Yanyu also remembered the information about the "Thorn Rose" contestant.
Thorny Rose was the runner-up in the previous season's singing competition, and she has been showcasing bel canto singing since joining the show.
Her singing skills are excellent, but young people nowadays prefer pop music and may not appreciate bel canto.
So even if the mentors give a lot of votes, the audience doesn't buy it!
If the audience doesn't buy it, then winning the title of "King of Singers" will be even more difficult.
Because the scoring rules for "Masked Singer" involve five mentors and three hundred audience members voting for their favorite singers.
In the two-person competition, the singer who receives the most votes will advance to the second round of the singing competition.
Therefore, if the audience vote accounts for a large percentage, even if The Rose with Thorns has great singing skills, it will be a waste if the audience doesn't buy it.
Xu Yanyu had figured out the information about her competitors, so she wasn't too nervous.
She adjusted herself into a comfortable position and focused her gaze on the screen in front of her.
The competition had already begun, and the host, dressed in a gorgeous dress, went on stage to give her presentation.
"Good afternoon, viewers. The new episode of 'Masked Singer' is about to begin."
This episode welcomes two new contestants. What amazing performances will they bring us?
Alright, enough chit-chat, let's welcome our first contestant from group one, our new teammate, Li Zishu!
After a burst of colored smoke resembling an explosion, a figure dressed like a tree appeared on the stage.
"I did not wait for dawn, nor should I expect dusk."
"In a world with you, life is like bubbles."
...
A soothing male voice, like a clear spring flowing, rang out; it was Li Zishu Le on stage, showcasing her beautiful singing.
The five mentors on the podium all turned their attention to the stage.
Kong Liang, sitting in the first seat, said, "A new contestant has arrived, and he's performing quite well. I wonder who he is in the industry."
Kong Liang is a professional teacher at one of the top music academies in China, and the program team hopes that he can use his professional music knowledge to score the contestants.
Of course, although he is a music teacher, he has also released some records that are more artistic and aesthetically pleasing, so he can be considered a person in the music industry.
In addition, in order to cultivate students, he also pays attention to the development of the music industry, and he is very familiar with the music industry.
Wei Li, sitting next to Kong Liang, rested his chin on his right hand. After listening to the prelude, he sat up straight and looked at his female mentor, Lan Shuifang, next to him.
"I know who he is!"
Lan Shuifang comes from a variety show hosting background and has a relatively weak sensitivity to music.
The production team invited her mainly to liven up the atmosphere; otherwise, the show would lose much of its appeal with just professional commentary.
Lan Shuifang listened for a while but still couldn't determine the singer's identity.
Upon hearing Wei Li's words, she replied curiously, "Is it Qian Hao?"
Qian Hao sings ballads very well, and his voice is very similar to that of the singer on stage.
Before Wei Li could speak, Fu Zishan, sitting next to Lan Shuifang, confidently declared, "It's Min Zishang! If the person on stage isn't Min Zishang, I'll quit the show."
“It’s either Min Zishang or Qian Hao! This singing style and the way the last note is handled are exactly the same as Qian Hao’s habits.” Zhang Yinghao, who was sitting in the fourth chairperson’s seat, said hurriedly. He and Min Zishang were close friends, and he was covering for Min Zishang.
Zhang Yinghao's words convinced Lan Shuifang, who was standing next to him.
Although Zhang Yinghao is a young singer in the music industry, he is very talented.
For five consecutive years, his record sales have ranked first in the industry.
Lan Shuifang slapped the table and laughed, "I knew it was Qian Hao! He spoke like that when he appeared on my show before."
"It's Min Zishang, isn't it? Only Min Zishang likes to hold the microphone with all five fingers pointing in one direction, and then use his palm to press against the microphone." As an actress, Fu Zishan has a keen eye for human behavior, and she still sticks to her opinion.
Kong Liang, who was sitting at the very front, suddenly spoke up: "This is a new song. I haven't heard it before. The composition style is very obvious. He shouldn't be showcasing a new song on this stage."
The mentors on stage were having a heated discussion, each expressing their own opinions and validating their viewpoints.
The audience was also drawn to the singer.
Upon hearing the chorus, one audience member couldn't help but say to their companion, "This song is so good! How come I've never heard it before? Is it an old song?"
"It's not an old song. I searched the song title, and there wasn't a single one that matched. It must be a newly composed song. Let's give him all the tickets later."
The person's companion opened his phone and showed his friend the search results.
"That's strange, how come I've never heard such a nice song before?" the audience member muttered, then turned to look at the stage.
In the lounge, Xu Yanyu tapped her hand rhythmically to the music while swiping on her phone with the other.
She was also searching for information about the singers on stage.
"No results..." she said regretfully, looking at her phone.
She didn't know if others had guessed the singer's identity, but she certainly couldn't.
The original owner had never been involved in the music industry, so the original owner's memories are unreliable.
Four minutes later, Li Zishu, also known as Min Zishang, finished singing the entire song.
Thunderous applause erupted from the audience.
He couldn't help but laugh as he watched the audience's reaction.
He is a typical example of someone whose songs are more famous than he is. His songs are played everywhere, but the name Min Zishang is not that well-known.
When the assistant director of the show invited him to participate in "Masked Singer", his agent preferred to ask for a lower appearance fee, as long as the director agreed to a few conditions.
