The preliminary rounds were scored by four professional-level mentors, and there was no online popularity vote.
These four mentors are all mentors who have trained top groups. Two are from H country and two are from R country. They are highly respected in the industry and will score each contestant based on their overall strength.
The score ranges from one to ten, which includes singing skills, composition, expression management, and dancing skills. Finally, the comprehensive scores of each teacher are added together, for a total of 40.
Of the four domestic mentors, only Tang Ze and Xi Nancheng have been with the group.
Tang Ze comforted the six members in the country and told them not to be nervous.
On the stage not far away, the first contestant has already appeared, and the audience seats are still filled with overwhelming cheers.
This is an international stage, a world-class competition. Even with the comfort of the mentors and the on-site psychological counselors from the program team, the group of female group members were still a little uneasy.
After all, the opponents they encountered were god-level opponents, and the pressure faced by these girl group members was unprecedented.
Not to mention them, even the directors sitting in the audience had their hearts beating faster than ever before.
On the stage, the host has already started explaining, "Our second contestant, Hua Huibin, is the first strong contestant from Country H to come out of the circle, and is also one of the candidates who has the hope of competing for the global C position this time!"
...
...
"There are many fans of Hua Huibin at the scene. Hua Huibin is a natural born singer. She won the first place in the National Youth Singing Competition at the age of 13. She is also a creative genius. What kind of performance will she bring to the four mentors this time..."
As the host was speaking, Hua Huibin had already entered the venue.
As soon as she came on stage, the people at the scene went completely crazy and waves of cheers rang out one after another.
For each performance, the instructor will give a score on the spot after discussion.
She also became famous at a young age, has excellent singing skills, and is also decent in dancing and composition. Her final overall score was 35.89 points!
The scoring criteria are the same for each session.
The champion of the last World Championship only scored 36 points!
35.89 I wouldn’t dare say I got first place, but I’m definitely qualified for the finals!
Backstage, the director and planner were analyzing Hua Huibin. Director Mu rolled his eyes. After hearing the score, everyone took a deep breath and had to admit that these members of the domestic girl groups were indeed different from Hua Huibin.
"Ye Shuning is very dangerous," Director Mu took a deep breath, "Hua Huibin, Yin Zhen and these four people will definitely enter the finals. There are 36 people competing for the last two spots."
The person in charge also stared at the stage closely: "The competition in China this year is too fierce, and the international arena is even more fierce. Chunri Xiazi is a mentor-level figure in China. With Hua Huibin's score, only Chunri Xiazi can surpass her. But Chunri Xiazi is the second to last in the mall, so she will definitely suffer..."
Several people were chatting while watching the game intently.
Eun-jeong is the eleventh one, and she is also one of the candidates who may get the first place in this global competition. Her singing skills are slightly worse than Hwa Hye-bin, and her final score is 33.96.
After her performance, it was the turn of their seeded player, Ye Shuning.
Ye Shuning has been in special training for the past seven days. Lu Haichao helped her arrange the music, and her live performance was even more perfect than the last time.
After her performance, the four international mentors discussed the scores with each other.
Behind the stage, Director Mu and his group also held their breath, as Ye Shuning was their last hope this time.
The host had already received the score card. He took a look at it and seemed a little shocked. Then he smiled and said to the camera, "This contestant from Xia country is very surprising, a dark horse. 30.12 points, let us congratulate her!"
30.12 points.
In previous years, China has always been at the bottom of the international competitions, with the highest score being only 22 points, while the average score is 24.28 points. 30 points is the only high score for China in the past five years!
According to previous competitions, as long as you score more than 30 points, you will definitely enter the finals.
The assistant director's wildly beating heart calmed down a little. He took a deep breath and said, "Based on past experience, Ye Shuning should be able to enter the finals this time."
Director Mu finally sat down on the chair. "As long as there are no more than three people who score over 30 points in the future, Ye Shuning will be safe. But this year it may not be the case..."
In previous competitions, there were only one or two people who could compete for the C position, but this year there are four. The international Internet is touting this year as a battle of gods.
The competition is not even halfway through and there are already two contestants ahead of Ye Shuning who are taller than him. It is still uncertain what will happen next.
But no matter what, Ye Shuning's score of 30.12 has been posted online. Now, within a few minutes, domestic media have received this notice.
"Global Idol" has been held for five years. Due to its fairness and professionalism, except for the domestic competitions, the popularity of other competitions is extremely high every year.
As soon as the news came out, it completely exploded on Weibo in China.
[Ye Shuning scored 30.12 points in the international competition! 】
[Domestic dark horse player Ye Shuning! 】
[The first domestic girl group member who has the potential to enter international competitions! 】
[Domestic girl groups really need to stand up!] 】
【……】
Weibo, browsers, and major video apps all released this press release at the same time!
One stone can cause a thousand ripples!
This incident that exploded on the domestic Internet attracted the attention of major media outlets. In fact, there were also one or two domestic media outlets in the international arena, but as soon as they arrived, they occupied the seats for interviewing Hua Huibin and Kasuga Natsuko.
Now the global network is accessible worldwide thanks to the Tianhe app, and people in China basically pay attention to foreign competitions.
Although they don't want to admit it, Kasuga Natsuko and Hua Huibin are much more popular than people like Ye Shuning.
In previous years, the performances of domestic girl groups were too bad. Reporting on domestic people is not as popular as reporting on foreign members who can compete for the C position.
But now, due to Ye Shuning's sudden appearance, a few domestic media have opened up channels and started live streaming.
The reporter from the Pigeon Newspaper faced the camera and live-broadcasted the situation on the field outside the competition venue while the program was trending.
Working in this industry, the reporter from the Pigeon Newspaper was obviously very excited to finally have the opportunity to report on the contestants from her own country. She held the microphone and excitedly said to the live camera: "Then everyone can see the big screen of the H Country Center Building behind me. The third place on it is Ye Shuning's score. Except for the instructor, we can't see the live content of their performance. However, after five years, our girl group members finally have the opportunity to enter the finals. This is the closest time we have entered the finals..."
Everyone is excited and thrilled.
The members on the field are still coming on stage one by one.
Just behind Ye Shuning in the third place, fifteenth place, there is a player from country R, who scored 31.56 points and surpassed Ye Shuning. Ye Shuning's ranking became fourth. This is not good news. Behind him are Kasuga Natsuko and Marian, who will definitely be in the top six. In other words, in addition to these two people, there is another person who surpassed Ye Shuning. Ye Shuning can only miss the finals this time.
The seventeenth was Chu Yue. Her singing skills couldn’t keep up and she only got 23 points in the end, which was expected.
Marian was 27th with a score of 34.29.
Ranked third, Ye Shuning ranked fifth.
The director team stared at the people on the stage, almost out of breath. Except for Kasuga Natsuko, as long as no one else could exceed 30 points, Ye Shuning would be safe this time.
The assistant director picked up a cup of tea, his hands shaking a little.
However, ideals are beautiful. In the 33rd place, the appearance of a player from country H shattered everyone's hopes.
The contestant scored a high score of 32.79.
Ye Shuning moved from fifth to sixth.
This change made the reporter from Pigeon TV who was broadcasting live feel uncomfortable.
For five years, she has been following this program every time. Every year, she has witnessed the birth of an international group. This is the first time she has seen a domestic contestant approach this stage. She was still explaining, "Ye Shuning was squeezed to sixth place, so we will miss the finals again this time, because we all know that Chun Ri Xia Zi will appear at 35th place, and her score must be the same as Hua Huibin and others, unless Chun Ri Xia Zi makes a mistake this time. Of course, we all know that this possibility is very small..."
Her live news feed was still flooded with comments.
Director Mu's heart suddenly sank to the bottom.
He squatted in front of the live camera until he saw the 35th place, Kasuga Natsuko, appear with 36.43 points!
"Bang--"
He sat down on the ground.
The person in charge knew that this was not only their failure, but also meant that next year, the country would no longer be eligible to enter international competitions. They took the risk of betting against the investors and lost.
"The game isn't over yet," the person in charge paused, patted Director Mu on the shoulder, then turned to the screen and pursed his lips: "We still have one last contestant, Meng Fu."
"There is no chance." Director Mu seemed to have aged a lot. He stood up with the help of a chair, put on his glasses again, and spoke slowly: "Let Xi Nancheng come to me. I will discuss the next steps with the investors."
As he spoke, he slowly walked out of the lounge, passed the track and got into the business car.
On the competition stage, Meng Fu had already entered the scoring scene of the four mentors.
After Kasuga Natsuko left the stage, the number of people at the scene was reduced by half, as these spectators left the stage early to block the way of several popular contestants.
Even the several newspapers that were broadcasting live commentary from outside the venue for domestic members gave up paying attention to the last contestant and went to interview the other contestants.
Among these domestic reporters, only the female reporter from Pigeon App is still insisting on reporting on domestic members.
She turned her back to the big screen. "Ye Shuning didn't make it to the finals. We are all very sad. She was the closest contestant to the finals. Last year, the lowest score in the finals qualifiers was 29 points! But even if we failed, this year's domestic girl group is still worthy of our pride. I hope that one day, we can have a real super group in our country. Everyone knows that we have never really participated in an international competition. We have not had any external guidance for five years. We have been exploring little by little to get to where we are today. Next year, we will definitely be able to enter the international finals!"
As she was speaking, the Pigeon Headquarters was already urging her through the headset, "Go and try to interview Ye Shuning. All netizens want to see Ye Shuning now."
The female reporter was stunned for a moment, "There is another person from the domestic women's group who appeared in 36 appearances."
"Don't worry about it, stop the live broadcast and go find Ye Shuning," the boss' voice on the other end of the headset was already dissatisfied, "Other newspapers have already arrived early, hurry up!"
"Remember, Ye Shuning is the only person who has reached 30 points in all these years. Interview carefully. There are also Chun Ri Xia Zi and Hua Huibin..."
The female reporter had no choice but to temporarily cut off the live broadcast and asked the staff to pack up and go interview Ye Shuning, Kasuga Natsuko and others.
She turned around and wrote down the words when she saw a person's name slowly appearing in the second position on the huge color screen logo of the sports center.
Great Xia Empire, Meng Fu, 35.99 points.
The boss was still explaining the details in the headset. The female reporter from the Pigeon Newspaper stared blankly in that direction. She looked at the country name marked in front of her and stammered, "Boss, we, we...some of us have made it to the finals!"
