Three public demo
"ah……!!!"
Yi Jingchen's speaking time was over. 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 have forgotten all the speeches I wrote!"
[I stayed up late to finish the manuscript!]
[It was written in vain again! ]
“Puff——”
Everyone started the thigh pinching contest again, trying hard not to laugh.
It is 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 that you can advance."
"Brother!" Yi Jingchen happily leaned over and whispered, "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 up, 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 "the cat borrows the power of the tiger" meant.
In the live broadcast room, Chen's sister was doting on him.
[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! In the past, the C position was always the big devil ACE, and it’s time for the little fool to take the top spot (bushi)
[Yi Jingchen is only fourth, the summit in the dream, let’s surpass the first three first and then reach the summit]
[Hey~ Little Blackie also knows that your father is TOP4, I will definitely make you angry~~~]
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 in this year's "Super Idol".
Halfway through the draft, the Mugan family is still a mess, without a decent fan club or organization. It all depends on individual fans to vote alone, 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 had ended a few days later, and "The Seven Deadly Sins and Babel" had become a big hit, Yi Jingchen might have really 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 and looked at his roommates who had already taken their seats.
"I never ask myself whether I am a qualified idol."
Mu Gan turned around and gave a clear answer:
"Because I know I'm not."
"Ha ha ha ha!"
The whole place and the live broadcast room burst into laughter. Thinking of Yi Jingchen who just said "I often ask myself whether I am a qualified idol" and hopes that he "is", I can't help but sigh that there are two extreme individuals living under the same roof.
"Meow!" The main body angrily showed its presence and emphasized 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 them 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 Mu Gan’s...back of the head from afar.
[The back of the head of the milkman is so round!]
[You must have rolled around a lot when you were a baby!]
Mu Gan: ...
I talk to you about life, and you talk 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.
The other trainees couldn't help but envy his condition and thought:
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 bit as big as a sesame seed.
Even if it was just a little bit, it shocked Mugan’s fans.
I knew it earlier that Mu Gan liked to battle and had never lost, purely because he was 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 "competition" state.
On the contrary, 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 locations 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 his debut position leisurely, and high-fived a few familiar trainees.
The ranking pyramid of "Super Idol" has the C position that everyone aspires to at the top, and the second row is 2nd from the left and 3rd from the right.
Mu Gan got third place, 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.
"Ah?" The stupid Silver Gradient asked in a daze, "Do I need to draw a 38-degree line in the room? Can I send my real body to your side to secretly detect the enemy situation?"
Mu Gan's serious expression returned to normal in an instant.
"Can't."
"…What should we do? It's hard for the main body not to cross the line."
Mu Gan corrected, "I mean, you can't draw the 38th parallel."
【Ahhhhh (meaningless scream)】
[I always thought that Gan’s family was disorganized and undisciplined, so their vote power would definitely not be high. I didn’t expect that Gan’s fans had already started to set up a fan club and voting group just as Nai Gan decided to join the war. This efficiency is like a special forces soldier per capita.]
[I really like the roommate line! Becoming rivals does not 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 good~ There is no intrigue and hatred like in previous years, and the tension of fans fighting each other]
[Yes!!! I really like this year's debut circle. The cute little Star Rabbit has been very stable and calm, so the fans of the two TOPs can't quarrel. 34 is a roommate line, 45 is a brother, and the following ones have a good relationship. The little JB who is blocking the seat nearby 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 game, and his fan club was formed in a second and called for the C position. They are indeed fans of Ha Ren, so bloody]
[I didn’t argue before because Nai Gan didn’t express his stance. Now the main character has said that he wants to debut. Do you think those crazy people in the entertainment circle are easy to deal with? ? ? ]
[Wonderful, wonderful, the two TOPs are so entangled that I am tired of watching them. In the third stage, cat fans and fans of Haquan will enter in large numbers, and the competition on the main list will definitely be fierce]
Veteran fans had already foreseen the bloody storm in the third stage. When they saw Du Xingwei and Tian Xitu dragging each other to the promotion zone, a sentence popped up in their minds:
The last calm before the storm.
Du Xingwei happily came to the promotion area and turned to ask He Yidong, "Teacher He, will there be a tough talk segment 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 strips as salary, so he let out a ferocious 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 cancel your threats." He Yidong took out a cat strip from his pocket, tore it open and fed it to the 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 stage is very small, only 200,000."
When they heard 'the ticket difference is very small', everyone became nervous.
'200,000' is a big difference in the ranking circle.
However, for 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 that the difference is not that big.]
Sister Chen 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 are even more excited, rubbing their hands in anticipation for the pick list to open, so as to escort their own leader to ascend the throne on the spot.
He Yidong released a bunch of smoke bombs before slowly revealing the final suspense.
"Congratulations, Du Xingwei!"
"Wow!"
"Senior is number one!"
Yi Jingchen jumped up and said, "Congratulations to Senior Mushroom and also to 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 for them to finish hugging before continuing to announce, "At the same time, congratulations to Tian Xitu for receiving 37,324,675 votes and ranking second in the second stage pick list. Please give your remarks."
Tian Xitu walked to the speaking area and was about to speak.
Over at the pending seats, the 48th 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 the Bunny for always being the second best, you are not even the second best!]
The rabbit moms worked hard to vote, but in the end they still lost by a slight margin.
Although they say they respect the results, their emotions are inevitably negative.
Hearing the taunt of "eternal runner-up" again, Mom Rabbit recalled her previous defeats and her mentality almost collapsed.
Fortunately, Yi Jingchen said a few words, and they followed this line of thought and felt relieved.
right!
They worked so hard to get 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 contact!
Tian Xitu also heard the voice of "eternally second", but he didn't get angry and didn't respond.
He has terminated his contract with the 48 series and has nothing to do with his former company since then, and he is too lazy to get involved with his former group members.
"Hello everyone, I am a trainee from Nyanya Entertainment, Tian Xitu."
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 in a sarcastic way 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 stupid, so it 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 just."
Tian Xitu put away his smile, his eyes were firm and sharp, "Besides, I didn't lose at all."
"We are getting closer to the stage of our dreams. Thank you everyone!"
[Aaaah! Rabbit mom 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 have no brains. If Rabbit is second, it means they lose. What are they in the 35th division? ]
[Stop! The remnants of the 48 series have been eliminated. From now on, Tutu will never again be associated with that broken place!]
[Tu Ma congratulates Du Xingwei for winning first place, and will continue to fight in the third stage pick list]
[Xing Ma said that the elder sister of the Rabbit family is really strong. We are afraid of being surpassed even in our dreams. Three-shun big melee, let’s 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 the Rabbit are old enemies, don’t buy into everything!!!]
Tian Xitu took a few steps back to give up the speaking area.
In the second stage, the fan circle was successfully abused, and Du Xingwei, who won the first place unstoppably, 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 his 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 then read it.
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 try to make myself more mature and stable so that I can take on this position."
"Thank you!"
[Ahhh! I am so touched. Du Xingxing is a must-have for moms.]
[no no no! Xingxing, don’t be mature. We like you to be a child.]
[Standing in the C position means facing more cameras and speaking more. I feel the pressure from Mushroom Senior. But this time, the kid didn’t say “I don’t want to be C”. He probably felt the efforts of the fans and didn’t want to spoil your fun.]
[I don’t want to put too much pressure on Mushroom, but I also want to give him the best. Xingma is really conflicted]
[Don't be contradictory! Stage C is definitely the best position! As for daily speeches and dealing with the camera, you can find a spokesperson in the team, and we'll just go for it]
[Official spokesperson, Yi Jingchen is actually quite good. Those gossip media and unscrupulous marketing accounts would not 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 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 now!"
Yi Jingchen: "What big wings?"
"Wait, let me show you~" Du Xingwei jumped to his seat and just sat down, festive BGM immediately sounded on the scene.
Then, on both sides of the seat, a pair of large wings spread out 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 is particularly exaggerated.
Yi Jingchen stared at the glittering wings behind Du Xingwei and couldn't help but complain, "Wow, a mushroom taking off! 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 sighed and frowned when they saw the pyramid was already full. They were 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 contentedly, 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's ear.
"Now, it's up to you to decide who owns this position." At this point, he looked up and called out the name of the main body's owner, "Yi Jingchen."
"Here." Yi Jingchen stood up slowly. Everyone then remembered that there was a position No. 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 religion...hiss! Who's pulling me?"
"You better shut up. Pretending to be a believer is a taboo! 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 to show 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 to be made 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 will ask three questions and you will think about your answers in your mind. If the answers are all yes, raise your hands and I will 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 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 that you didn't advance because you were 'unappreciated'."
"In the past two months, with the entire Super Idol broadcast live, and with everyone able to see it, does anyone think that they didn't advance because of their lack of exposure?"
After the words were spoken, there was silence throughout.
Indeed, in previous years, after many trainees were eliminated, the most common thing they said was 'no screen time'.
They attributed all the problems to the lack of camera, and believed that as long as the exposure was big enough, they would be able to get the C position.
This year, "Super Idol" uses "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, those 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 to the next round during the first two performances and felt that he could advance based on his 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 stage, Yi Jingchen was caught up in a scandal with a wealthy family 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 players at the front are all those who are considered to have "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 was in the top three in both practice sessions. However, because the joke of "coming to the talent show to apply for a job" was so popular, everyone thought that he was not 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 next round?"
When the voice fell, the whole audience fell silent.
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 he looked away and turned to look 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 words and said, "I 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 position 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 his or her own ranking card. This one is yours." He Yidong told him, "Your original ranking was--"
“36.”
When Yan Zhichen saw the number and the number of votes on the card, he was stunned for a moment and confirmed that he was indeed one step away from the promotion position.
He took it and said thank you solemnly.
"You're wrong. It's not me you should thank."
He Yidong curved his eyes.
"It's Yi Jingchen, and you who raised your hand just now."
[Woo woo woo! I was poked by Teacher He again, this sinful man! ]
[He used his actions to tell Teacher Xiaoyan: Your advancement did not steal anyone’s opportunity]
[Speaking of whose opportunity was stolen, @子涵妈妈, can your Zihan sit still? ]
[Yes!!! His Zi Han didn't spend money to advance to the next level, so Teacher Xiao Yan can advance openly]
[Teacher Xiaoyan and You Lingyu's double C stage was super amazing! The whole show industry was looking for him at the time! It's a pity that the ranking was cut off the day after the performance, otherwise Teacher Xiaoyan would definitely be in the TOP35]
[Luckily, Melon God rescued Teacher Xiaoyan, otherwise there would be another person whose dream was stolen this year.]
[Basic operation~ 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 in the original V/D group left.
Among the friends I made at the recording base and the trainees who worked 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 first stage and the theme song, but because he was competing 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 from the company, which was almost like a house collapse.
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 public 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. He smiled and said that everything 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 and said, "I look 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 around and walked towards 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, and Yan Zhichen ranked first.
The reason why there was no direct choice was mainly because Yan Zhichen's main job was a kindergarten teacher and his comfort zone was not here.
Yi Jingchen was curious and asked, "Teacher Xiaoyan, do you want to stay?"
"Yeah. It's winter now, and the school year hasn't ended yet. It's hard to find a job as a teacher." Yan Zhichen nodded and told Yi Jingchen with reason, "Besides, the two of us 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 realized.
[Yes!]
[We could have gone hand in hand to take the civil service exam together, but now we are here participating in a talent show!]
Yan Zhichen said softly, "I'm not sure where I can go. But if I give up halfway, how can I set an example for my students in the future?"
"Well! Come on, Teacher Xiaoyan!" Yi Jingchen said whimsically, "If you eventually debut as a group, you can still tell the little baby about 'the years I was in a boy band' during class in the future."
Yan Zhichen didn't have much confidence, "It's still too far to form a group..."
"You just said that we are very similar people! I dare to dream of being the center, why don't you dare to think of forming a group?" Yi Jingchen frowned and asked a soul-searching question, "Can forming a group be as difficult as taking the exam for editing?"
Yan Zhichen calculated rapidly 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 chances of debuting are as high as 8.5%!
——Nearly six times higher!
Yan Zhichen concluded, "It's still more difficult to pass the exam."
"Right, we all dare to challenge the exam, let's try to warm up by having a higher chance of forming a group."
"good!"
Behind them, the "Super Idol" production team followed them out, all with 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 pulled at the car windows, howling like ghosts:
"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 that he has already been hired."
"Here you are?" Everyone was immediately alert, "Who is so fearless?"
"The production team hasn't made an official announcement yet, so I don't know the specific candidates." Seeing that they were trying hard to keep him, He Yidong had to reveal in advance, "On the night of the finals, I will return as a guest."
"Really? Teacher He, will you come back?"
He Yidong: "In addition to me, the senior group that 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 guys welcome the seniors? They are so eager to grab their songs."
"The work and the creator are two different things." Cen Hao explained implicitly, "Last year's senior group... had more personality."
Li Xingzhou next to him took over the conversation, "More than just personality? They were rated as the top male group in the country, and all the members in the team are villains."
"Everyone is evil!"
Yi Jingchen suddenly became interested.
“I want to interview them!”
"Yi Jingchen, be quiet." 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, "Teacher He, 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 to new dormitories, were left with nothing to do and became bored.
Just at this moment, someone shouted and informed everyone that the third public song selection of "Super Idol" had been cut off.
The trainees had heard a long time ago that this year’s third public performance would be selected by audience voting for the best demo.
Everyone couldn't help but wonder, what amazing demo did the audience choose?
Yi Jingchen's appreciation for boy band music is really limited.
Since I like to join in the fun, I followed him 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 a large crowd, I knew what they were up to without even asking.
"You are well-informed. We just closed the list and you came here to get information."
The data department staff is clearing up the list.
The part he is responsible for only involves the demo number and does not involve the trainees and specific rankings, so there is nothing to hide.
The trainee, like a secret agent, craned 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 trainee at the back was stunned and complained quietly, "What's the point of just telling me the number?"
The trainee in charge of the charge in the front was a little anxious, "I can only see the number and the number of votes here. The song 41 is far ahead, and the others are not far behind."
"41 is so strong? It must be a godly demo."
"What's the use 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."
"Who cares about your birthday when they are busy?"
"...Okay." Yi Jingchen shrank back aggrievedly.

More and more trainees gathered in the data department. 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 are selected." The staff 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 song and a rap song. Trainees who were not in these two tracks quickly skimmed through the song and urged the staff to play the song 41, which had the highest number of votes.
staffMove the 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 daze."
"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 after listening:
"Can I vote for this song for senior?"
