Chapter 25
Lin Qingyi held her breath. The members beside her were quietly celebrating for her, while Ning Cong'an in front of her just kept staring at the screen without moving.
Following closely in second place is Ning Cong'an.
The top six are all the same as last time, only the rankings have been changing, the people have not changed.
The seventh place is the debut position, which is also the position that everyone pays more attention to.
The name clearly written on it was He Minju.
He Minju beside him seemed to have stopped breathing, but Lin Qingyi didn't think there was anything surprising.
He Minju's strength deserves such a high ranking.
She turned around with a smile, happily celebrating her.
He Minju also knew that if it weren't for Lin Qingyi's help, she would definitely not have reached such a high place, so she whispered a thank you to Lin Qingyi with gratitude.
Lin Qingyi felt that there was nothing to thank him for. If it weren't for He Mingju's own efforts, he would not have come here.
The top seven have been announced, and everyone's concern now has shifted from the top seven to the bottom 24.
The rankings flashed by one by one, and the top 24 were soon announced.
The members whose names were not announced already had an idea in their minds.
Finally, the names of the last 24 contestants who will be eliminated will be projected onto the big screen.
The names were announced, but the eliminated members were not embarrassed at all.
It's already pretty good to be able to make it to the second performance, especially when people are being eliminated on a large scale.
Many members of Lin Qingyi's group were eliminated.
After this second performance, everyone has more or less developed some feelings for each other. Lin Qingyi said goodbye to the eliminated members one by one. The members are all very strong, and even if they leave this audition, they will definitely have a better future.
Lin Qingyi lowered her eyes and thought back. For her, this audition was no longer just a place to improve her abilities. The things she was exposed to here might be something she could never get exposed to in other industries.
When she was interning in college and working with her supervising lawyer on lawsuits, she also received some breach of contract cases in the entertainment industry. However, she did not know much about the entertainment industry and only went so far as to investigate this kind of industry. Now, after experiencing it firsthand, she feels that the entertainment industry is much more cruel than she had imagined.
But when I thought about the few small fans I had gained from browsing Weibo, I felt very happy. This kind of happiness was a different kind of happiness that was difficult for me to experience as a lawyer before.
The eliminated members left one after another, and soon, only 24 members were left on the field.
This time, it was really empty.
As soon as the eliminated members left, no one continued chatting, and the scene was suddenly filled with a heavy atmosphere.
Tao Ruiyun said at the right time: "Don't be sad, everyone. There is less than half a month left. Try your best."
"Besides, maybe if they are eliminated they will go home to inherit their property, and maybe even live better than you!"
As soon as Tao Ruiyun finished speaking, everyone started laughing, and the sad atmosphere that had just lingered was swept away.
"Next, it's the third performance."
"Some members who have watched talent shows before have felt that we are progressing too fast. I feel the same way. When I watched other talent shows before, it seemed that they were on the island for a long time, but when I came here, it felt like I had only been here for a few days."
"The third performance will be going on soon, there will be no time to breathe, and after the third performance, the debut ranking will be announced."
After Tao Ruiyun said this, everyone felt that time passed really quickly. Lin Qingyi was still a little dazed. He was still struggling with whether to sign up more than a month ago, but in the blink of an eye, he had already walked to the third performance in a daze.
After the pleasantries were over, Tao Ruiyun cleared his throat and said seriously, "Okay, next, I'll talk about the repertoire and rules for the third performance."
When the members heard this, they put away their other expressions and thoughts and looked at Tao Ruiyun seriously.
"The third performance was performed by the members and the instructors, and the repertoire was also original."
"This time, the members will choose the mentors. Of course, you all know what our respective responsibilities are, so think carefully before making your choice."
"There are six groups this time, each with four members. Together with our six instructors, there are five people in each group. The practice time, including the creative time, is 12 days in total."
"Of course, the mentors don't participate in the competition for the final debut spot. For this performance, the mentors are more responsible for songwriting and choreography. We will have very few appearances."
"And after the third performance, the final ranking will be the debut ranking."
"Now, everyone can go directly to the voting room and vote. If there are too many members who want to choose a mentor, the mentor will decide who will leave and who will stay."
"In order of ranking, six by six will go."
Since there are six of them, it means that Lin Qingyi will now separate from He Minju who is beside him.
But Lin Qingyi didn't think they would separate. He Minju's dance style was obviously similar to hers, and she felt that they would choose the same instructor in the end.
Lin Qingyi glanced at He Minju with a smile, and He Minju understood and said, "Looking forward to our next cooperation."
Ning Cong'an in front had already walked to the door, followed closely by Lin Qingyi. The six of them lined up like six soldiers and walked out.
Logically, they should have walked there in a line, but unexpectedly, Ning Cong'an in front walked slower and slower, and Lin Qingyi inexplicably walked with her again.
Lin Qingyi felt a little guilty and a little strange. Looking back, he saw that the six of them were inexplicably grouped in the same way as last time, walking side by side in pairs.
She turned around and felt that she was not so strange anymore, but suddenly she felt that all six of them were strange.
After entering the voting room, Lin Qingyi cast his vote without hesitation, just like last time.
She wrote down Ke Jiyao's name and put it directly into the ballot box.
After casting his vote, Lin Qingyi returned to the lounge where he had been before. For some reason, he let out a sigh of relief.
This time, Ning Cong'an will not squeeze her to sit.
After returning to the original position, Ning Cong'an quickly followed in.
As for voting, everyone has now reached the stage of public discussion. Everyone has more or less formed some insights into the areas they are good at and the mentors who have helped them, so everyone completed the voting quickly.
After all members finished, the instructors left.
Everyone followed the instructions on the radio and went to find the dance studio where their instructor was.
When Lin Qingyi walked in, besides Ke Jiyao, there was another contestant sitting inside. She smiled.
The person sitting there is He Minju.
When Ke Jiyao saw the two of them, she said, "I remember you were in the same group last time."
After listening to her, Lin Qingyi and He Minju both nodded.
"It seems like your dancing styles are similar."
Soon, the members came in one after another. In this group of four people, three were from the same group in the second performance, and the remaining one was the member who was transferred to the first group last time.
Seeing that the four of them basically knew each other, Ke Jiyao smiled and said, "That's good. We still need to get to know each other."
Ke Jiyao turned around, and the five of them formed a circle.
"Let me briefly explain. This time, the song is an original piece. We are the dance group, so our group has already written the lyrics. We just need to distribute them, and then I will choreograph the dance."
"Of course, if you have any good suggestions during this period, please feel free to bring them up. This is your last stage here, and your last chance to show yourselves on this stage, so you must be careful with your movements. I hope this is a stage we create together."
"Okay, now let's listen to the music."
Music came from the familiar screen.
Lin Qingyi guessed correctly, this time Ke Jiyao was still in charge of modern dance.
The music was very loud and the drum beats were very chaotic. It was obvious that Ke Jiyao had never heard it before. When she heard such a chaotic rhythm, she immediately frowned.
For this kind of music with very little white space, the timing is more important. The timing in dance means that the movements will be more fragmented, so it is still a bit difficult to choreograph them in a short time.
Fortunately, this song has very few lyrics. After everyone finished singing, the instructor still had to sing a few lines, so Lin Qingyi's pressure in singing was much less.
After listening to it several times, Ke Jiyao seemed to have some ideas. She led everyone to stand up and start forming a formation.
With five people, it would definitely not look good if they kept dancing in a fixed formation. The stage was very large, and if they kept dancing together, it would not look good either. Ke Jiyao briefly explained her ideas. In fact, everyone's movements were quite complicated and they were in a hurry.
Moreover, Ke Jiyao did not plan to choreograph a group dance like many others did before.
What she wanted was to show everyone's characteristics as much as possible.
For example, for Lin Qingyi, she could sing fewer lines and then teach her the more difficult moves. A difficult dance move combined with Lin Qingyi's face actually creates a strong contrast, especially for this kind of metal-style song. With her performance on the last stage, Ke Jiyao's ideas gradually became clearer.
Soon, a framework began to take shape in her mind.
Ke Jiyao first arranged the place where everyone stood in the center, ensuring that everyone's time was basically the same, and then started from the center position and choreographed the dance movements for everyone standing in the center.
Because of the injury on his knee, Lin Qingyi cannot kneel for the time being, and even squatting is a little difficult.
However, Ke Jiyao didn't think it was a big deal. When she saw the injury on Lin Qingyi's leg, she asked her not to squat, and Ke Jiyao demonstrated it to her personally.
It was not until the evening that Ke Jiyao had only choreographed half of the movements for the center position.
Ke Jiyao herself thinks the sooner the better, but in the eyes of the members, Ke Jiyao is already like a god.
I have never seen anyone choreograph so quickly and so beautifully.
At the end, Ke Jiyao said, "I just made this up simply to give you some ideas. Let's follow the song and get the feeling."
After it was over, Lin Qingyi originally wanted to go back to the dormitory directly, but he was startled by Ning Cong'an standing at the door.
