Chapter 29
When the exclamation sounded, Jing Jin was in a daze.
She didn't have dinner tonight and was starving. But when they entered the venue, she and the sisters from the fan club were lucky and squeezed to the front row, and no one was willing to leave.
Fortunately, there were some leftover support meal packs in the bag, and the program team also distributed water.
The result of being half-hungry was that her enthusiasm only lasted for about three stages before it was basically exhausted. Even Guan Heng’s performance just now only woke him up slightly.
She began to think about why she came offline.
A performance is not like a concert.
The concert had seats, a finished stage and fans could interact with it. To be honest, the experience was much better than talent shows where people could only stand and the stage quality was not guaranteed.
If not...
Before she could finish thinking about what it was, the little sister next to her suddenly pulled her sleeve: "They're out, they're out! Xiao Jin! Xiao Ai and the others are out!"
Her heart skipped a beat and she looked up at the stage.
Sure enough, a row of people on the stage had already stood still.
Her brother stood in the captain's position, and next to him was the group's C position Ai Qingyuan.
She clenched her palms unconsciously and felt her heartbeat speed up immediately.
Her first reaction was:
The rumor that her brother and Xiao Ai were in the same group turned out to be true.
The second reaction is:
It’s actually true!
Help! What on earth should she do!
The third reaction is...
My god, her brother is so handsome.
This was the consensus reached by almost everyone present the moment they saw the person on the stage.
For the sake of harmony, usually the entire set of a song will be in the same color scheme.
"Stand By" is a fresh and clean male group song, so Guan Heng's group and Ai Qingyuan's group both chose light colors. The previous group is a mix of light blue, light yellow and light pink, while this group is unified in blue.
This is a very picky color.
Light colors can easily make one look darker, and one of the five people in this group unfortunately suffered this fate.
The rest of them have done nothing wrong, but...
The cruel reality is that as an industry active on stage and screen, appearance is also one of the factors considered in evaluating idols’ professional abilities.
Strictly speaking, in this group, only Jie Xichao and Ai Qingyuan can be considered "outstanding".
The latter, as the center, should wear more exquisite and complicated clothes.
A denim jacket and a white inner wear. According to personal characteristics, the inner wear is a T-shirt printed with black English letters. The whole body is also matched with more personalized accessories, such as earrings and a silver chain on the pants.
The former still wears loose shorts above the knee and white sneakers.
But this time, his upper body was changed directly into a loose sky blue cotton jacket, and his inner wear was also changed to pure white. The T-shirt is oversized and reveals a little bit of the collarbone.
It’s a plain blue and white color, but the boy’s skin color is even whiter. The neck and collarbone almost seemed to glow.
Of course, the most eye-catching thing is the boy's face.
Since the fan meeting, many people have been discussing Jie Xichao's appearance online.
They describe it as:
"A very good-looking player with great plasticity."
It turns out that many people's impression of Jie Xichao is that she is elegant and graceful with a light complexion.
This kind of appearance can easily put one at a disadvantage in the idol world.
The meeting showed his youthfulness.
His current makeup style not only fully demonstrates his advantages, but also makes some changes to the end of his eyes and lip color, making him look more vivid and lively.
In a nutshell:
The condition is so good that it drives people crazy.
*
Jing Jin was going crazy.
She knew her brother was good-looking but she never thought he would be so good-looking after being packaged.
She was so dizzy at the moment that she didn't even hear what Dou Yu was saying. There were screams in her head all the time. It wasn't until the lights dimmed again that she finally came to her senses.
In the darkness, she saw her brother sitting down at the edge of the stage.
It’s a starting posture.
At this moment, the atmosphere in the venue, which had been unprecedentedly heated in the past few minutes, finally quieted down.
When consciousness returns, rationality returns to the mind.
Everyone finally realized one thing, that is, this should be the most interesting stage of this performance.
Big hits, hot contestants.
A showdown between fellow disciples.
And... the rematch between the two candidates for primary C.
The third question can be put aside for now. The first question this group will face is -
On this stage, Group A has already set a great example.
Jing Jin held onto the railing.
The little sister next to her lowered her voice, anxiously about to cry: "Ahhh, why put Guan Heng and Xiao Ai in the opponent group? I'm dizzy... How can people choose... And Brother Heng's group is really good."
She is a half-family fan of Shenghong.
Guan Heng's performance on the stage just now was full of youthfulness. From singing to dancing, there was basically no flaw in his performance.
It was a very exciting performance that restored the essence of the original song.
The only shortcoming was that the trainee who sang the intro had a hoarse voice, which was a little lacking at the beginning, but the trainee's voice was a very cool boyish voice, which made up for the shortcomings in singing skills with his voice.
This is also the result of Guan Heng's deployment.
She couldn't think of any way to surpass it.
She was both worried and expectant.
Jing Jin was also anxious.
She raised her head and looked hard at Jie Xichao, trying to glimpse his face in the darkness. She didn't know why she was looking for Jie Xichao, she just looked up subconsciously.
Just like when she was waiting for Jie Xichao to pick her up after school, she would feel at ease when she saw her brother’s bicycle from afar.
But now, she could only see a vague outline.
Just when her palms were sweating from nervousness, a voice finally came to her ears.
only……
But this sound was not the beginning of the familiar accompaniment.
She was stunned.
After a moment, she hurried to identify it carefully.
The sound next to my ear seems to be... a bicycle bell?
-
In the tutor's seat, Qiu Xuerui and Li Lin sat together.
The two were also talking in low voices.
"Is this Xiaojie's idea?" Li Lin asked.
Qiu Xuerui said, "Yes. He talked to me and Teacher Lan before and said he wanted to add a paragraph at the beginning."
The so-called fragments are scenes created through sound.
The sound clips playing now include the sound of bicycle bells, the laughter of people walking on the university campus, and the singing of birds in the early morning. All these fragments are mixed together -
Together they form a picture of a university campus.
The sounds are mixed, but the darkness will amplify any subtle sound.
Coupled with the stereo surround effect of the live sound, almost everyone was immediately brought into the scene.
On a bright summer day, the campus is bustling with people.
Young boys and girls walked towards the cafeteria laughing and joking, and...
"Huang Junzhuo, do you want to come over here?"
besides--
After class, the girl smiled brightly and called her childhood friend across the street to go home together.
This is the scene from the original MV.
It is a MV, but it is not a MV.
This is an obviously edited audio clip. The original dialogue between the boy and girl in the MV is presented in fragments, which not only roughly presents the story context but also has a fast pace.
The background of the conversation is always clear and bright ambient sound.
And at some point, all the sounds suddenly stopped.
In the MV, the girl's inner monologue suddenly sounded: "Huang Junzhuo."
"I like you."
The sound of chalk rustles, and behind the secret hidden in the corner of the message wall is a quirky smiling face.
The moment this scene appeared in everyone's mind, the stage lights suddenly lit up.
The boy in the sky blue jacket jumped down from the prop desk with one hand, walked to the center of the stage facing the camera, smiled and raised his eyes to sing the first line: "I think of you every moment, why don't you mention it when I miss you."
The sound is clear and warm, like a big bowl of soft smoothie on the street in summer.
Almost at the moment when these words came out of his mouth, Jing Jin loosened his grip on the railing.
She raised her eyes in a trance and met her brother's warm smiling eyes.
It seemed like a long time ago, before the tragic car accident happened, every summer evening, they felt the warmth of the wind as they walked along the street together.
*
This is an undoubted stage of success.
The unexpected MV cut at the beginning constructed an atmosphere scene. Later, Jie Xichao's introduction perfectly continued the picture that had not yet disappeared in the audience's mind. His singing skills were so steady that Lan Yezhou on the side couldn't help but look up.
The ballpoint pen in his hand unconsciously scratched on the notebook, and he didn't know how many marks it had made.
After Xie Xichao, Ai Qingyuan took over.
The two lines he sang were:
[Recalling the ice cream we ate together when we were kids;
There are also wind chimes on the street corners. ]
The boy's face is as cool as ever, but his skills are still online.
Then, another big boy who looked sunny and cheerful nearby started talking: [Mom always says that we have to grow up quickly, but when we become adults we start to act stupid], with a playful ending and a crisp tone.
His singing skills are a little weak, but this sentence is almost a monologue, so he performed it perfectly.
Three paragraphs of words, everyone is in the right range.
The more detailed dance in the original version was broken down into simple movements and actions, so that when the two weaker trainees sang and danced at the same time, their voices hardly shook.
Soon, the song entered the chorus.
The chorus, as the killing part, is naturally the responsibility of the C position.
Ai Qingyuan is also worthy of this C position.
However, just when everyone thought that this song had been adapted into a cheerful and refreshing little sweet song, the accompaniment suddenly changed its tune.
The lighting is slightly dimmed, but the warm undertone remains unchanged.
However, the originally lively and loose stage suddenly shrank, and all the trainees gathered in the middle of the stage under the flickering lights and performed a short dance break during the interlude of the song.
Everyone's movements were clean and neat.
The cameraman was overjoyed and it can be expected that when the scene is broadcast, a long shot will be cut here to show the group dance.
The interlude ended, and there was a brief pause, during which Jie Xichao's gentle voice continued.
…
The four-minute song has almost no wasted parts.
When the song ended, the whole audience fell into silence.
Half a second later, the whole audience erupted in cheers, and the mentors in the mentor seats all stood up and applauded.
Amid the colorful fluff flying in the sky, Jie Xichao was breathing softly.
In the final ending action, five people gathered in the center and he sat sideways.
The camera moves in front of him to shoot the final personal ending.
He raised his head and looked into the dark camera.
He was stunned for a few seconds.
Then he smiled and winked gently at the camera.
It was like making an agreement with the person behind the camera about a secret that only the two of us knew, hidden in the summer evening breeze.
