Chapter 156
Xie Xichao knew from the beginning that Sangong was a tutor's collaborator.
Asking is the sixth sense. If you ask further, there is no businessman without fraud. I spent a lot of money to hire him, so I have to get my money's worth.
The truth is not far from the truth.
He didn't think it was a big deal, just a stage thing. But at one point he thought that he probably wouldn’t be able to recruit anyone with his recent style—the second public performance ended recently, and the little bastards started to get carried away again. Jie Xichao felt like he was pulling on balloon strings every day. Still a lot. So it became a bit fierce.
As a result, a fight broke out.
No physical attacks. Just swearing at each other. In order to join his group, the recording process was like a war without the smoke of gunpowder. At this moment, Xie Xichao felt that he was not a balloon releaser, but a ball tosser...
Uh, that's a bit strange. What he meant was:
"You really don't consider C?"
he asked incredulously.
In the practice room, there is a gathering of elites in the physical sense.
Currently, this group accounts for six of the top ten.
There are six people in a group.
Yin Li muttered quietly: "At worst, I can participate in the fifth season of Super New."
Xie Xichao: “…”
Student Yin Li, you seem to be in a very good mood right now.
In addition to Yin Li, another familiar person in this group is Liang Yi.
Xie Xichao really didn't intend to stir up any conflict at first. But the fact is that the kid was cheated by his B. He has been ranked first in the past few episodes, but he always complains to his fans about Jie Xichao's evaluation of his performance on the first stage.
Later he found out that Liang Yi had actually only been in the industry for two years. It's already a natural talent to be able to dance like that.
Xie Xichao likes Liang Yi very much.
Liang Yi and Ai Qingyuan do look a bit alike, but Liang Yi is much more obedient than Ai Qingyuan. He is a kid who looks fierce but is actually a very good student.
This character is pretty good. Fans can even dance to create contrast if they are interested. However, when a person's character becomes his true personality, it can sometimes become a disadvantage.
Like when on stage.
-
There was a time difference between the official announcement and the actual shooting. When the outside world knew the news, Jie Xichao and his group had already been practicing for several days.
The song is a self-composed song by Jie Xichao that has not been made public, called "Rose Rain". The original version is lyrical and talks about a broken heart. It was Xie Xichao who got the inspiration for the filming of "Tao Xia" after reading several literary and artistic works. This is one of the few songs in his collection that simply interprets love.
The concepts of TP's recent comebacks have all focused on inner exploration, so this song wouldn't be suitable even if it were included in the collection, so Jie Xichao put it on hold.
But the draft does not need to revolve around the concept of the group, and appropriate hormones are also a good plus buff for trainees at this stage. So he took out this song and changed it from its original lyrical and sad style to a more sexy style.
They are all high-level players and there is no problem with their basics. What Xie Xichao corrected the most was the excessive facial expression management. But when it came to Liang Yi, the situation was reversed.
He was the last C voted for. C should stand in the center of the stage, or in layman's terms, set the tone.
Not only that, he also had an interactive part with his mentor.
Not to mention the interactive part, after several days of rehearsal, Xie Xichao didn't say a single word to comment.
After the rehearsal that day, he kept Liang Yi.
"The others can go back first." He said, "Liang Yi, wait a moment."
The door opened and closed, and the boy stood in the middle of the practice room, pursing his lips nervously.
Xie Xichao had been practicing for a long time and was now a little out of breath. He stood aside and drank water in small sips. When he screwed the cap on the bottle and turned around, he saw the child standing in the middle of the practice room with a determined look on his face, being punished.
Xie Xichao: “…”
He said, "Liang Yi."
Liang Yi immediately came back to his senses and looked at him: "Teacher Jie?"
Fortunately, there was no conditioned reflex to say "here" to him.
Xie Xichao sighed, patted the floor beside him, and said, "Come, sit down."
*
Liang Yi’s problem is very clear.
Tighten, or hold tight. It was a love song but he danced like an emotionless killer.
"It's not too cold to be a human killer." Xie Xichao said, "Student Liang Yi, are you an AI spirit?"
Liang Yi laughed for no apparent reason at his joke.
His expression became more lively when he smiled, and then he looked at a loss.
Children this age tend to go to extremes. The entertainment industry has a bad atmosphere, and there are many people who have chaotic private lives at a young age. People like Liang Yi and his senior brother who are so immature that only think about success and victory are rare animals.
This is a good thing. No one had ever said that there was anything wrong with Liang Yi's performance on stage. Until now he was sitting in front of Jie Xichao.
Xie Xichao told him very bluntly: "Whether it's dancing or singing, you need to be emotional."
This is the reason why he did not give Liang Yi a high score on the first stage.
Liang Yi is talented, has good skills and details, and you can see that he works very hard. From A to B, half of the points are deducted because the basic skills are a little behind others, and the other half are deducted because of the emotions.
Basic skills are easy to improve, but empathy is something that requires some talent. Xie Xichao didn't want him to become a romantic immediately. He said, "You should at least learn to let go."
Liang Yi didn't understand.
Xie Xichao made it clearer: "Your facial expression management should be based on the song, not on the belief that 'I want to be cool'. If you only think about being cool on every stage, then the stage you create will be soulless."
Liang Yi was a little hesitant.
"Are you afraid of becoming greasy?" Jie Xichao smiled.
He said, "I'm telling you clearly now, you're not ready for that yet. Even if you really overdo it, I'm still here and I won't let you go on stage with oil all over your body."
Liang Yi seemed to be relieved.
This is a problem.
Another person, Xie Xichao, sighed: "This about feelings..."
Liang Yi said honestly and stubbornly: "I don't understand why people would want to die after a breakup."
Xie Xichao:.
He calmly asked, "How did you feel when I beat you up on your first stage?"
-
——As the saying goes, there is no problem in this world that Teacher Jie cannot solve.
If any. That means Teacher Jie gave you face.
Liang Yi went back with a red face, and he felt much better after practicing again the next day. When looking at Jie Xichao, the look in his eyes always contained three parts of forbearance, three parts of reluctance, and four parts of condemnation of the unfaithful and scumbag. A good young man turned into a resentful husband. Xie Xichao had no intention of reflecting on himself and was very satisfied with his condition.
So, the problem remains the stage itself.
The stage of "Rose Rain" was designed by Jie Xichao, and his own studio was responsible for everything from makeup to costumes.
But in fact, he himself doesn't have much weight.
He basically gave all the highlights to the trainees in the group. He only left himself some fragmentary parts with higher difficulty. The other part was the dance break interaction with the C position that the dance teacher invited by the program team advised him to keep.
Although one person has enough weight, he is a little thin.
Xie Xichao took Liang Yi to record it twice, and finally decided to keep the duet.
On the day of the performance, the studio team arrived early.
Everyone was busy making preparations such as changing clothes and putting on makeup, and at this moment, the forum was also discussing the upcoming San Gong ceremony.
*
[The recording will start soon, I'm sure you'll know which group is the most confusing and which group is the most amazing when working with the mentors this time]
This is the last performance, I still feel reluctant
1L
The most confusing one has no idea, the most amazing one has a standard answer
2L
Xie Xichao is really responsible... He is the most serious mentor I have ever seen. I accept that it is a character created by the team. I have never seen anyone more dedicated than him. He even moved his own studio team here. People who don’t know would think he is going to make his debut.
3L
He is like this, fans are used to it
4L
He is indeed a pure good person, with a beautiful heart and a kind heart. He really came to the right show. The fans gained by all the trainees in the whole show are not as much as his. This small and obscure variety show has few fans and he was sucked away by them. But he deserves it.
5L
The stage is still attractive, wait and see. Now it feels as if he relies on his personality to attract fans. It was obvious that he killed his way to the top stage by stage.
6L
No, sometimes I really feel it’s magical.
So, is there really such a person, who has good business skills, good looks, and stable emotions? Do such idols really exist?
7L
Usually when I see such comments from fans, I think it is a flag, but only when Xie Xichao does it, I feel a sense of relief as if I am exempt from inspection.
8L
I was so emotional. I recently watched him as a mentor on a show and kept thinking about how I just met him.
He is very young, but his eyes show ambition. I was attracted to him because of his undisguised ambition. I really like idols who are ambitious.
9L
+1, he was really very conspicuous at that time
When he first entered the show, his makeup and styling were actually very simple, and his aura as a big devil wasn't very obvious, but even through the screen you could feel that he needed you.
10L
What a strange description. I'm a little curious.
11L
Ah, I think he felt fragile at that time.
Wasn't he in poor health? He was often sick. I remember that he almost fainted from hypoglycemia when the behind-the-scenes footage of "The Infinite Sea" was broadcast.
The desire for success in his eyes is even more touching. In fact, he is so lively. There are not many lively people in the domestic entertainment industry now. There are really few people like him who have high emotional intelligence and are very real.
12L
Speaking of which, I'm quite curious about why he wanted to enter the entertainment industry. I remember that he became famous because of a medical miracle, but he didn't have to make his debut?
13L
Yes, I heard that one of them wanted to be famous. After all, who would want to avoid money? But I don't think he is that kind of person given his personality.
14L

"Openly looking at your phone during a performance?"
Hearing the voice next to his ear, Yin Li shivered with fear and almost dropped his phone on the ground.
He first turned off the phone in a hurry, then looked up at Jie Xichao with a nervous expression.
Jie Xichao didn't care about it. He couldn't find many people who didn't bring their cell phones in the entire program. He thought Yin Li was nervous, so he washed his hands before saying, "Don't be nervous, you practiced very well."
Yin Li murmured "hmm" softly, looked up, but was stunned for a moment.
Jie Xichao has already put on her makeup.
They went for a sexy style this time, but the clothes were more like college uniforms. White shirt with a black slim tie. This tie looks a little mature on Yin Li, but it looks just right on Jie Xichao.
He was wearing a pair of gold-rimmed glasses today, and he looked more and more like a young professor on a university campus. Yin Li swallowed and walked beside him.
As he walked, he thought of the post he had just seen. He hesitated for a moment and called out to Xie Xichao, "Teacher Xie."
"Um?"
"Can I ask you something?" he asked, "Why did you choose to be an idol?"
He was really curious.
Because his original intention in entering the industry was to help Xie Xichao. But when he thought about it carefully, it seemed that it was true that few people asked Jie Xichao why he entered the industry in the first place.
He is a successful person. His success is enough to prove that he is suitable for this line of work, so it seems that it doesn't matter why.
This was a very routine question, and Yin Li didn't think too much about it when he asked it. It was just rare that Xie Xichao didn't answer him within two seconds after he asked.
He belatedly realized something from the two seconds of silence: "Ah."
"I'm just asking casually," he whispered, "I don't mean to force you to answer."
Xie Xichao seemed to have finally come to his senses.
He smiled and said, "Nothing that cannot be answered."
"I like it very much." He paused, "And then, it's also quite suitable."
A very standard answer.
Yin Li nodded suddenly. Jie Xichao originally wanted to rub his head, but when he saw the gorgeous golden curls he had done, he finally chose to pat his shoulder.
He said, "Let's go to rehearsal."
Rehearsal, followed by a brief adjustment period. The performance started on time at seven o'clock.
Because Xie Xichao did the styling, Zou Yi was invited to be the special MC for this episode. He just left the stage when Jie Xichao came on stage. The two of them passed each other. Zou Yi patted his back without changing his expression, and Jie Xichao's mouth curled up.
The TP fans in the audience were so happy that they almost fainted, and soon, they spent an even happier three minutes.
This is an extremely luxurious stage.
The scenery and lighting on the stage are similar to a corner of a street on a rainy day, with warm yellow lights interweaving with the night. On the big screen in the background was a dessert shop sign with LED lights on, and in front of the store was a street lamp. Amid the sound of drizzling rain, the prelude sounded, and the trainees came on stage one by one and began to sing the introduction before the chorus.
The singing is very stable.
Among them, Liang Yi and Yin Li are the most eye-catching.
The boy who looked so cold during his first performance on stage was now wearing a dark shirt, his hair dyed cold blue, his eyes drooped, and his voice was hoarse, as if he really was a young man who couldn't get over his emotional pain and was wandering around the street corners.
Opposite him is Yin Li, whose voice is clearer than Liang Yi's and whose melancholy is lighter. But since he has always been the image of a sunny and cute boy, it makes people even more moved when he occasionally reveals this rare vulnerability.
The dance to the chorus was very coordinated.
It was Qi who was later evaluated on the forum as "any screenshot is good-looking, I suggest Jie Xichao to start classes for all male groups in the domestic entertainment industry."
The most rare thing is that when the camera is focused on everyone's face, the expression between sexiness and fragility is just right, revealing almost everyone's personality and characteristics.
There was a lot of screaming at the scene.
Amid the suppressed screams, the rest of the people moved to nearby locations. The lights gathered in the center, and the scattered rose petals were crushed. The next moment, the handsome young man who suddenly appeared loosened his collar and found the camera facing him within half a second.
Then, look up.
Twelve seconds of duet.
Under the light and shadow surrounded by darkness, the two figures, one dark and one light, looked like twins. There were deep gasps between their intersections, and the thin ties were pulled and tugged, then subtly intertwined.
As they passed each other, the young man leaned back in a textbook-level arc. The corners of his eyes were dotted with diamonds, and his chin to Adam's apple formed a smooth arc.
As if he noticed the camera slowly moving towards him, he glanced at it lightly.
It was a blank, emotional look.
If Liang Yi saw this look, he would know what kind of "state" Jie Xichao had always wanted him to enter.
But at this moment, he obviously had no time for this.
According to the plan, he should have a rose at this moment.
But the action just now was too intense and the rose slipped out of his pocket.
Liang Yi: “…”
Sweat broke out on his forehead. The next moment, Xie Xichao did not walk to him as planned.
After bending down, he added two free dance moves and silently picked up the rose that had rolled to the ground within a second.
The beautiful rose was inserted into Liang Yi's chest pocket, smoothly as if it was supposed to be so.
Liang Yi met the other person's eyes. He took a deep breath and completed the last action with this rose——
Back to back.
The screams from the audience were deafening. On the stage, after a brief second, the two people quickly dispersed and then began to dance together.
*
This was the stage with the best response that night.
Moving melody, clean and neat group dance, and interaction without any shyness but with sexual tension.
The applause lasted for a long time at the end, and almost as soon as the performance ended, the Internet was filled with repos.
"Xie Xichao is my eternal God. Really, people who didn't see the scene must have missed it."
"I'm really impressed. I finally understand why the members of TP were so grateful to Jie Xichao when they debuted. He is really the type of person who is not only excellent himself but can also teach others. There are a few members that I usually have no feelings for, but today I like them so much."
"I felt like there was a slight mistake in the middle, but it was saved hhh the action of saving the situation was really smooth"
"It should be ahhh, I'm so excited now, I feel like I've got back the feeling when I was watching the third season woooo, it's worth standing all night, waiting for it to be broadcast! Also, Xichao ahhh mommy loves you! Thank you for appearing in my world woooo!"
Meanwhile, in the lounge, Fang Qingqing asked again in disbelief:
"What did you say?"
Xie Xichao didn't say anything.
After a while, he said, "I just want to take a break. I'm not really retiring, don't worry."
How could Fang Qingqing not be anxious? She looked at Jie Xichao, trying to find a hint of joking in his eyes.
But, no.
She came with congratulations from the whole studio.
The performance received rave reviews and became popular again after it was broadcast. Not only that, "Supernova" 4 also means something special to Jie Xichao. He is now the most popular male star in the domestic entertainment industry, with high commercial value and good reputation. Offers for acting, variety shows, endorsements, all kinds of resources imaginable and unexpected came to him like a tide.
He has gone through countless dark moments and is now at the peak of his career.
At this moment, Xie Xichao temporarily put aside the film contract he was working on and told her that he wanted to take a break.
Fang Qingqing felt extremely dizzy. She looked at Jie Xichao, desperately wanting an answer.
For the first time in his life, Jie Xichao turned his eyes away, avoiding her concerned gaze.
