As the center of the boy group SYI, Song Baiyi’s part in their debut song is almost 40 seconds, the longest among all members.
Learning a 40-second song in 10 minutes and then dancing the entire song is quite easy for Cheng Zhi.
Everyone looked at Cheng Zhi in disbelief.
Bai Tong spoke up to break the somewhat awkward situation, "I also want to dance Song Baiyi's part. Isn't it fair competition? Then I'll show you what it means to deserve the title."
After saying that, Bai Tong stood up, took off his sports jacket confidently, raised his head and walked to the center of the practice room, looking like he was sure of winning.
Bai Tong was secretly happy in his heart. With Cheng Zhi as his foil, he would have a greater chance of taking the center position on the stage. Thinking of this, Bai Tong directed the others to press the accompaniment switch and moved his body to the music.
Cheng Zhi didn't say anything, just watched Bai Tong's movements calmly. There were no major problems with his rhythm and strength, and the part he was supposed to sing was also pretty good.
He estimated, after comparing it with the original video in his mind, that he could give it a passing score.
When the song ended, Bai Tong lifted her bangs proudly and looked at Cheng Zhi provocatively, "Did you see that? The difference between our levels is too big. What qualifications do you think you have to compete with me for the center position?"
Cheng Zhi hummed, zipped up his sports jacket to the highest position, took out a mask from his pocket and covered his face. The shape was exactly the same as Song Baiyi's in the video.
Bai Tong couldn't help laughing as he watched his actions, "What? Are you hiding your face because you're afraid of being embarrassed?"
The other players on the team looked at Cheng Zhi's actions as if they had discovered something and discussed in low voices.
"Are you imitating Song Baiyi's look in the video?"
"Haha, you are just imitating others."
"Does he have no self-awareness? He covers his face so that we can only see his movements. How disgusting!"
Cheng Zhi ignored their comments about him, walked up on his own, and reached out to press the button to play the music.
Although his face was covered with a mask, when Cheng Zhi stood over, the sharp aura in his eyes could not be blocked. Just standing there, he seemed like a different person. The other contestants suddenly felt as if something was different.
One by one, they were attracted by the atmosphere around Cheng Zhi and stared at him intently.
For Cheng Zhi, although he has changed the world and the body, he can still perform dance moves smoothly and gracefully. When the music starts, Cheng Zhi's arms draw beautiful arcs in the air. Although his body is a little unfamiliar, he can still step on every beat well.
Song Baiyi's dance style looks light and casual, but it is difficult to create the same feeling as him. This is because Song Baiyi has a very good basic skills, and seemingly simple movements look very beautiful when he does them.
However, for some people whose dancing skills are not so solid, such as Bai Tong, there were a few places that were awkward when he danced just now, and it didn't look good.
But Cheng Zhi is different from Bai Tong. He has been learning dancing since he was a child and has mastered all the basic skills to perfection. Even if he has a new body, he can still perform beautiful dance moves based on his memory and feeling.
For Cheng Zhi, dancing may be as simple as eating.
In addition to perfectly replicating Song Baiyi's dance moves, Cheng Zhi also unconsciously added some of his own style to the dance, and his clean and neat movements attracted everyone's attention.
Because of the large amplitude of the movement, the wrist exposed from the sleeve swayed in front of everyone, so white that it was a little dazzling. And with the ease in Cheng Zhi's eyes, he seemed to be glowing in the eyes of others.
Song Baiyi, who was standing at the door, just took a glance and felt as if his heart was gently tickled, a little itchy.
Song Baiyi has been in the entertainment industry for two years. He has seen countless people cover his debut song, but in his opinion, they are all mediocre, just following the rhythm and imitating his moves.
But now, it seems a little different.
The kid in front of him, wearing the same black sports jacket as him, was not just imitating his movements, but more importantly... becoming him.
Song Baiyi was shocked by the thought in his mind and quickly denied it.
Everyone is an independent individual, so how can we say that this child is becoming him?
He can only be himself.
Song Baiyi felt relieved as he thought about it, and couldn't help but sigh that young people are really formidable.
......
After the presentation, the other six teammates looked at each other, and no one spoke first, especially Bai Tong, whose face turned blue and red.
"It seems... quite impressive. Are we stereotyping him a bit?"
"No way, didn't he fail on his first stage? It's only been three days, how could he have improved so much?"
Bai Tong couldn't sit still after listening to other people's discussions. He quickly stood up and said to Cheng Zhi, "Impossible! SYI has been in the band for so long, you must be well prepared! You must have been learning this song a year in advance!"
Cheng Zhi was sweating a little because of dancing, so he lifted up his bangs and mask, revealing his beautiful and delicate eyebrows, and gave Bai Tong a kind smile.
He licked his lips and repeated what he had just said to Bai Tong in a sarcastic tone.
"There's a huge gap between our levels. I don't want to communicate with you. Let's just talk with our strength."
After saying that, Cheng Zhi sat back in his original seat without even looking at Bai Tong.
In the subsequent lyrics part, Cheng Zhi directly sang a passage that originally belonged to Song Baiyi.
Bai Tong threw the lyrics book in his hand and walked away without looking back.
When the others saw Bai Tong's movement, they looked at each other and followed him out without saying a word, leaving Cheng Zhi alone in the practice room to study the dance moves.
......
A group of people went out in a mighty procession. As soon as they turned the corner, they met Song Baiyi who was checking information on his mobile phone.
Bai Tong was stunned for a moment. He didn't expect to meet his mentor here. He nodded and called respectfully, "Hello, Teacher Song." Others also followed suit to greet Song Baiyi.
Hearing the noise, Song Baiyi hummed, looked up at the people in front of him, and recognized them as the group of people who had just been in the practice room.
Song Baiyi glanced at them and didn't see the child named Cheng Zhi.
Bai Tong had just been shown off by Cheng Zhishang and was feeling embarrassed. He turned around and was about to leave when he heard Song Baiyi ask.
"You guys finished practicing?"
"Ah? Teacher Song, you just saw us?" Bai Tong looked at Song Baiyi in surprise. He didn't expect Song Baiyi to notice him. He felt a little surprised.
Song Baiyi hummed softly, "I just passed by and saw you guys dancing to "Never". It felt pretty good. I'm looking forward to your performance on stage."
Hearing this, the oppressive feeling that Bai Tong had just felt due to Cheng Zhi disappeared, and he began to lift his tail in secret.
No matter how good you, Cheng Zhi, are at dancing, can you ever have the opportunity to communicate face to face with Song Baiyi like I do?
Thinking of this, Bai Tong felt a little elated.
When the others heard the top mentors say that they were optimistic about their performance, they also became excited and asked the mentors for their opinions on songs and dances.
Song Baiyi carefully analyzed the things that need to be paid attention to when dancing to this song and the breathing points when singing. The six people, including Bai Tong, listened very carefully and almost took out a notebook to take notes.
At the end, Bai Tong suddenly plucked up the courage to ask, "Teacher Song should have seen my performance just now, do you have any good suggestions?"
When the others heard this, they all echoed, "Brother Tong, you have to have confidence! I think you have performed very well!"
"That's right! After a few more days of training, I will definitely get the center position!"
The original small class suddenly turned into a flattery meeting of Bai Tong. Song Baiyi did not interrupt them, but listened quietly on the side. When everyone had finished speaking, he spoke.
"You danced pretty well. You kept the beat and your movements were smooth."
Bai Tong's eyes lit up when Song Baiyi admitted it, and he couldn't hide his excitement in his tone, "Really? Thank you, Teacher Song, I will continue to work hard!"
Before Bai Tong could finish being happy, Song Baiyi pointed out Bai Tong's shortcomings in a tactful tone.
"But your basic skills are not very solid, your lower body is a little unstable, and your frame is too small when dancing. There is still a lot of room for improvement. I hope you can make intentional improvements in our subsequent training."
Song Baiyi thought for a moment and continued, "Well, you are still a little far from the center position. Keep working hard. I look forward to seeing your progress in the future."
After hearing this, Bai Tong finally understood what Song Baiyi meant: You dance well, but you are still a little bit behind Cheng Zhi.
When the other people around heard this, no one dared to speak.
Bai Tong felt a little embarrassed when she heard what Song Baiyi said. She felt like she was being whipped repeatedly by Cheng Zhi after being stabbed in the sun. She wanted to find a hole to bury herself.
Although Bai Tong was embarrassed, he was now facing his senior, SYI's center and the current mentor of the show, Song Baiyi. He used all his strength to manage his expression to prevent himself from losing his composure in front of his mentor. "Okay, I understand. Thank you, Mr. Song, for your advice."
Song Baiyi nodded, turned and left.
Just as he walked a short distance, his cell phone vibrated and a message popped up. It was a reply from his assistant.
"Teacher Song, you just asked me to go and see Cheng Zhichu's stage performance and his rating was F. There was nothing wrong with that."
"Okay, thank you for your hard work."
