Tu Zhu froze in place.
He didn't dare to have any expectations at all, but hope stood before him.
Then, he looked at the judging teachers sitting on both sides of Sheng Quan.
They turned out to be Zi Tian and He Rizhao, who are well-known in the industry. It was just a preliminary audition, but there were already teachers of such a high status.
Opportunity... This is an unimaginable opportunity...
Tu Zhu's mind was in a mess, and he only heard the staff next to him reminding him: "Tu Zhu, you can start now."
When the music started, the sounds that seemed to come from all directions seemed to fade away in an instant. At this moment, all the chaotic thoughts just now disappeared. Tu Zhu took a deep breath and bowed forward.
Before this, his eyes always seemed to be downcast, but at this moment, he raised his eyes, and those beautiful peach blossom eyes, which seemed to be slightly upturned and slightly drooping, looked over.
As the song started, he slowly raised his hand, and in just a moment, he attracted the attention of everyone in the room.
Sheng Quan's eyes lit up slightly. Looking at Tu Zhu, whose temperament was completely different from his previous quiet and silent appearance, he felt anticipation in his heart.
Just a raise of the hand could make a complete difference.
Of course, some people had different ideas. For example, among the teachers who were originally responsible for judging this room, two of them frowned slightly with regret after a brief moment of amazement.
Tu Zhu was such a pleasant surprise, but his song selection was really incongruous.
The name of the song is [Stop the War], and it was arranged by the famous teacher Mao Hai. There are various versions of the lyrics. The song is majestic and sad, and the deep sadness can overflow from just the melody.
[Stop the War] itself is a top-notch work, and it is indeed amazing when used on stage, but the problem is that [Stop the War] tells the story of family and country feelings, and the sadness of war, and Tu Zhu is too handsome and too young.
This overly outstanding appearance can bring goodwill to the camera and the audience, but when placed under this extremely heavy work, it is easy to make people feel abrupt and out of tune.
Of course, the judges would not give their comments while others were still performing. They just sat next to Sheng Quan and shook their heads unconsciously.
What a pity! It’s really been too long since I last performed on stage.
Sheng Quan doesn't think so. Tu Zhu may have felt inferior or tried to give up, but on the stage, she believes that he will not make the wrong choice.
Sure enough, following the rhythm, his seemingly frail body danced powerfully and full of murderous intent. His rosy peach blossom eyes, which were always described as charming, suddenly became filled with a sharp and sad look like someone on a battlefield.
——[The general's bloodstained clothes, but asked the little boy where to look when he turned around]
Tu Zhu is no longer the dull and taciturn artist.
The sharp edge is exposed——the hatred is overwhelming——the sadness and disappointment——the repression is surging——the empty look back——
Every movement is like a strike of a sharp sword, yet with the softness of dance. Standing up and spinning, although these are not very sophisticated moves, the rhythm is just right. No, it can even be called excellent.
Sheng Quan didn't really watch dance performances before. She appreciated singing more than dancing, but at this moment, she changed her mind.
In Tu Zhu's performance, it was as if one saw with one's own eyes the fierce fighting, the broken city walls, and the people crying and helplessly searching for their loved ones under the collapsed houses.
It turns out that an excellent performance can draw people into the emotions involved.
Behind every melody and every dance is the life of each soldier.
--clank!
When the last clanging sound fell, Tu Zhu finished the dance, half-knelt on the ground, his breathing slightly disordered, and beads of sweat slowly fell from his hair.
When he raised his eyes, Sheng Quan even felt that he was not looking at Tu Zhu, but at a young general who had fought in the battlefield at a young age and was full of sharpness and experience.
Sharp, dangerous, suppressed in the sadness deep in the heart, but striving hard towards the light.
A visual feast!
An absolute visual feast! Watching the video is really different from watching the scene. At least she is now deeply amazed. This is a thousand times better than the video.
Although it is not appropriate to use the metaphor of a dance that can captivate the whole city, Sheng Quan really feels happy that this dance can captivate the whole city.
It turns out that fans who follow their idols are so happy.
——"Overall it's pretty good."
——"But the turning movement just now could be faster. It's obvious that you still need practice. The turn was a bit stiff."
——"The emotional rendering is very good, but the movements still need practice, and the proficiency is obviously not enough."
The judging teachers’ whispered comments could be heard, and several people were communicating with each other while giving scores in the evaluation books in their hands.
Sheng Quan: “???
? "
Director Sheng suddenly came back to his senses and took a big sip of milk tea to calm himself.
Such an explosive and exciting performance that was almost explosive, but these judging teachers just said it was okay?
Sheng Quan has long known that no matter how decadent the Chinese entertainment industry is, the artists are still working hard to achieve success, and the same is true for the idol industry, but she didn't expect it to be to this extent.
It is no exaggeration to say that if this performance was put on in the world where she lived in her previous life, even if the idol industry was in a slump, Tu Zhu would definitely become an overnight sensation and beat contestants from all over the world.
In this world, he only received a faint affirmation from the judges. Most of the time, they pointed out that some of Tu Zhu's movements were lacking.
The key point is that Tu Zhu himself also looked educated and obviously agreed.
Sheng Quan took another big sip of milk tea and felt deeply envious of the fans in this world who were chasing their idols. How happy they must be.
Oh, that’s not right. Now she can also pursue him.
Mr. Sheng quickly adjusted his mentality and became happy again.
Tu Zhu was indeed feeling very nervous.
Ever since he signed the contract with Sun Wah, he has been under great pressure to keep up with his schedule. Not to mention dancing practice, he even has very little sleep time.
Later, I terminated my contract with Sun Wah. I was exhausted by this matter and had to squeeze out most of my sleep time to find time to practice dancing.
He really didn’t do well enough… The boy’s expression lost all its sharpness, and he became more and more nervous as the judging teachers commented on him.
——He was worried that he would be screened out.
Even dancing like this is worrying about being eliminated, how competitive are the idols in this world? ? Director Sheng felt that he could reconsider the saying "Chinese idols are in a slump".
Tu Zhu, feeling uneasy that he might be eliminated due to lack of practice, didn't even dare to look up at the expressions of the judging teachers. But in the end, he forced himself and slowly raised his head.
——Then, his eyes met with Sheng Quan’s, who had an admiring expression on his face.
Tu Zhu: ...Is that...admiration?
He could hardly believe it and thought it was just his imagination, but when he blinked and looked again, he saw that it was undoubtedly a look of praise.
Mr. Sheng, who has always been good at judging talent...do you think he dances well?
Sheng Quan: Be more confident, it’s amazing, okay?
She could clearly feel from the original text and Tu Zhu's past news materials that Tu Zhu was a person with a bit of inferiority complex.
In this regard, Director Sheng also expressed her understanding. Isn't Jinjiu in a similar situation? She is very experienced.
But after watching this performance...you dance so well yet you feel inferior to others.
Director Sheng, who has been learning to dance recently, thought off topic that if she danced like this, she could float up to the sky.
Although the judges who were discussing the performance nearby also pointed out some flaws, one could tell from their expressions and the way they kept nodding their heads that they also thought Tu Zhu's performance was wonderful.
Discussions aside, no teacher asked whether he should be eliminated. Instead, they focused on writing down what areas Tu Zhu could work harder on in the future. This is enough to explain everything.
Tu Zhu naturally had no idea what Sheng Quan was mumbling in his mind.
From his perspective, he saw that after his performance, only Sheng Quan expressed his love for the performance without reservation.
Tu Zhu was dazed, and then, the pair of eyes that had just been dimmed again, gradually brightened up again.
[Ding! Tu Zhu's favorability score has exceeded 80! ]
After the announcement, 006 himself was surprised: [So soon? This is only the first face-to-face meeting between the host and the sponsored person. ]
Sheng Quan didn't seem surprised. She had noticed it the moment Tu Zhu entered the room: "He definitely paid attention to me before."
[These good feelings were accumulated in the past. ]
From the moment he entered the room, Tu Zhu's eyes were fixed on Sheng Quan, and he didn't look away until the performance began.
In addition, he had not terminated the contract with the company earlier or later, but after the appearance of the Xingmang holographic stage, Tu Zhu finally terminated the contract with almost no chance. The first thing he did after the termination of the contract was to come to participate in the audition.
He is basically blocking the rest of his career life on this holographic stage.
[The domestic stage environment is complicated. If there is any mistake, for example, he has a bad reputation, the program team does not let him participate for safety reasons, or he participates but is replaced by someone else with a backstage, if there is any mistake, Tu Zhu, who lost everything because of the termination of the contract, will be doomed immediately. ]
Sheng Quan guessed that Tu Zhu would definitely attend, but she, who always had the upper hand, never thought that Tu Zhu would give up everything to terminate the contract.
This doesn't leave any way out for yourself.
Tu Zhu is indeed young, but Sheng Quan doesn't think he is so young that he would do things without considering the consequences, unless he is certain... that there will be no problems with the holographic stage.
It will be just as advertised, fair and equitable from start to finish.
Sheng Quan was wondering why Tu Zhu was so confident.
And after listening to 006's reminder, she understood everything.
Looking at the young man with light pink peach blossom eyes who was looking at her carefully, Sheng Quan suddenly remembered that when she first came here, she had set "change" as her goal, whether it was artists, directors, the overall entertainment environment in China, or... the ending where everyone lost.
And at this moment, she truly realized for the first time that she had done it.
In the original novel, Tu Zhu fought alone until his death, but he chose to believe in her promise and the fairness and justice she created before he even met her.
——This world has been changed.
Moreover, things will get better under her influence in the future.
At this moment, Sheng Quan couldn't tell what she felt in her heart, she only knew that she was very happy.
——Tu Zhu couldn't suppress his joy and excitement while holding the sign that represented his approval, and he almost walked out of the room with his feet floating.
Lawyer Ma came over immediately and asked, "How's it going?"
Tu Zhu's perfect face showed a rare hint of youthfulness that one would expect at this age: "I... I got it."
"Very good!"
Lawyer Ma almost howled with surprise. He saw that Tu Zhu was almost skinned alive just to terminate the contract. If he didn't seize this opportunity, Tu Zhu would have no choice but to follow him and work as a cleaner in a law firm.
"Let's go! I'll treat you to dinner! Let's celebrate today!"
Tu Zhu listened to his friend's words, but Director Sheng's eyes of pure appreciation flashed through his mind. For the first time in two years, a spark was rekindled in his heart.
Director Sheng…she saw him.
This is Mr. Sheng, who is famous for his ability to judge people.
She actually expressed her appreciation for his performance.
Tu Zhu lowered his eyes, suppressed the excitement in his heart, forced himself to calm down, and the determination in his eyes gradually gathered.
——He won’t let Mr. Sheng down.
Mr. Sheng, who was being thought of, was very happy. Of course he wanted to celebrate.
As for Mr. Sheng's way of celebrating...
Mr. Sheng, who had discovered a new world, smiled happily and said to the secretary beside him, "Cancel all your plans today. I want to watch the auditions here. Which floor is the girl group audition on? I'm going to watch it now."
Sheng Quan could fully understand the stunning performances that were rolling up to the sky and competing with each other for beauty.
Hahahahaha, the fans’ happiness, right?! The enjoyment of facing the idol’s explosive performance on stage, right?! Now is her time to *discover a new world*.
