Chapter 150
The fact is, even in the eyes of everyone in TP, Jie Xichao has always been a gentle and harmless baby, but when Jie Xichao really started recording, the staff present and the other mentors basically treated him as an enemy.
Strictly speaking, this attitude has nothing to do with Jie Xichao's true character.
The simplest thing is, no matter how gentle he is, his fans can never be gentle. Even though Xie Xichao was bullied, he might not care. But his fans will definitely care about it.
So when Xie Xichao and his team arrived, he was greeted by a clean and bright lounge, as well as food and coffee prepared in advance according to his preferences and tastes.
He politely declined the staff's offer to buy more food, put a straw in his iced American coffee, and drank it while familiarizing himself with the script.
It's six o'clock in the evening.
If nothing goes wrong, they should record until the early morning tonight. Xie Xichao rarely stays up late, and he doesn't want to look in bad shape.
After briefly familiarizing myself with MC's script, the other mentors also arrived one after another.
The first person to knock on Jie Xichao's door was Shi Mu, the lead dancer of the popular girl group Hearty.
Hearty debuted after TP, so the two groups can be considered as senior and junior groups. However, in order to avoid suspicion, male and female groups rarely come into contact in public. The girl wasn't a particularly cheerful person, and she was obviously nervous when she came in and said hello.
Her agent actually wanted to have a chat with Jie Xichao. After just a few words, the director team came in and the other party had to give up.
The people from the director team came to bring fruit to Jie Xichao. He put down the fruit plate and left.
Jie Xichao silently took a photo of the exquisite plates arranged into flowers and sent it to the TP group.
Classmate Xiao Ai: Is this all you want to eat? The show crew abused me
Zou 1: ...felt Director Ma's panic
Classmate Xiao Ai: Ah?
Not long after, there was another knock on the door. Jie Xichao turned off the screen and continued to act as a greeting robot.
By the time the program actually started recording, Xie Xichao had some preliminary ideas about the program's prospects.
-
"Super Rookie" has been filmed to its fourth season, which is actually considered a long life as a variety show.
Even though talent shows are an evergreen subject, due to various reasons such as the declining quality of trainees and the lack of novelty, if there is no novelty and efforts to find topics, the best result will be lukewarmness.
Ma Hongping and Lu Yan were so shameless as to invite him, and Xie Xichao could vaguely guess that they were aware of this.
As expected, just looking at the lineup of mentors, basically everything has been covered.
As the main MC and main mentor, he ensures the basic ratings and popularity of the program. At the same time, his strength is the strongest among everyone. In terms of comprehensive conditions, it belongs to the t0 level.
Going further down, everyone basically has their own strengths.
The dance instructor Shi Mu is the main dancer and is also good at Chinese dance. The girl group has a high national popularity and can also bring in some traffic.
Rap instructor Ni Qinglin comes from a rap show. He is very professional at rap, but he is a bit weird. Jie Xichao summarized it as being a dull guy with a strange train of thought. If the show has funny moments, they are basically because of him.
The remaining vocal instructor Lin Ying is an acquaintance of Xie Xichao. That year, Xie Xichao participated in a music variety show and won the second place, and the champion was Lin Ying. Later, the two of them also had a very popular collaboration song. Lin Ying is a young female singer with solid vocal skills who is eligible to join the national team.
In addition, she has a straightforward personality. As a female mentor, she and Shi Mu are two of a kind, one is salty and the other is sweet. If nothing unexpected happens, one will play the good cop and the other the bad cop.
Xie Xichao had not expected this. After Lin Ying came to greet Jie Xichao, Jie Xichao fell into deep thought.
He asked Fang Qingqing seriously, "We have the roles of the good cop and the bad cop, and the funny guy. So who am I?"
Fang Qingqing: “…”
She said uncertainly, "You are responsible for...looking good?"
Xie Xichao:.
Good. It turns out that returning to where the dream began also includes his vase business.
It is a perfect 1:1 restoration.
The vase mentor Jie Xichao finished reviewing the script attentively, did her hair and makeup attentively, and went on stage attentively.
The moment he stepped onto the stage, the thunderous cheers from the audience brought him back to his senses from his dream of becoming a beautiful waste. He felt a little regretful, but still picked up the script card professionally.
"Hello, everyone." He said with a smile, "Welcome to the recording site of the fourth season of Super Rookie. I am the main mentor and host of this season's program, Xie Xichao."
*
Xie Xichao is really popular.
This was the first feeling of everyone present thirty minutes after the recording began.
After his transformation, even though he still returns regularly with the group, in the eyes of the public he has become more of an actor than an idol. It is precisely because of this that many people have an illusion that he has become "outdated" in the idol world and that the world is now dominated by a new batch of idols.
The fact is, the moment he appeared on the stage, almost all the trainees stood up, their expressions unable to hide their excitement.
During the recording, Lin Ying was chatting with the director team backstage. She jokingly said, "This is Bai Yueguang returning to China."
Ma Hongping, who was standing by, choked on a mouthful of coffee and almost suffocated himself.
But this sentence is indeed accurate.
Two groups of trainees came on stage at the beginning, and the idol column was filled with Jie Xichao and TP. Not only that, the trainees communicated smoothly with other mentors, but they began to stutter when talking to Jie Xichao, as if they had intermittently lost their language function.
The director team obviously would not let go of this topic. The headset prompted Lin Ying to cue it. The latter understood and smiled: "See Teacher Jie, you are all so nervous?"
The trainee's ears turned red.
Xie Xichao was looking at the contestant's information. Hearing this, his lips curled up slightly, but there was no smile in his eyes. He raised his head and asked gently, "Were you nervous during the performance just now?"
As soon as the words fell, the recording scene, which was originally full of whispers, suddenly became quiet.
-
Jie Xichao said this very gently.
In fact, from the moment Jie Xichao stepped onto the stage and started hosting, both the staff and trainees present felt his good temper.
His hosting style is very calm, but he will occasionally make a joke or two. He didn't seem angry when the audience dared to boo him. He just smiled helplessly and continued with the process.
During the breaks in the recording, he would also chat with the mentors and trainees, without any of the so-called top-star airs.
This sentence was also gentle and tactful, but everyone could understand his implication.
Suddenly, the trainees' ears on the stage turned red.
Perhaps seeing his embarrassment, Xie Xichao didn't say anything more. Several instructors began to discuss and finally gave him a grade of C.
However, this is just the beginning.
During the next two hours of recording, everyone felt the clearest pressure from their Bai Yueguang.
From beginning to end, he never lost his temper, but he also didn't praise anyone very often. The gentle tone almost sounded like the devil's whisper to the trainees in the end. When the first half ended, the whole audience was silent. Jie Xichao sat in his seat and rubbed his temples.
Lin Ying, who was standing beside him, lowered her voice and said, "Xi Chao, you are stealing my job."
Xie Xichao was silent for a moment: "I'm sorry."
Lin Ying said: "It's okay, this is not an easy job."
"I know you can't help it." She said knowingly.

In fact, although the conversation between Jie Xichao and Fang Qingqing before going on stage was just a joke, he really didn't want to show off too much.
It’s not because of anything else, it’s just that Jie Xichao himself also went through the trainee period, he meant when he first came into contact with the entertainment industry. He was forced, but he had also seen many trainees entering the circle with their dreams in mind.
To be honest, it's difficult.
The entertainment industry in his world is well developed, and the number of trainees is approaching saturation. Even more people do not see any hope after practicing day after day. In the beginning, in the company's training system, they received more criticism than praise.
It’s not that we can’t be strict, but Xie Xichao feels that we don’t need to be too strict in the evaluation.
At least, we cannot use the standards of accomplished idols to measure trainees who have just stepped onto their first stage.
However, no matter how tolerant you are, there is a limit.
At the beginning of the second half, after two groups of trainees sang out of tune one after another, Xie Xichao finally couldn't help but sighed softly.
