Chapter 185: Cheer up before the performance
Because the Fifth Quadrant group is too small in status, their red carpet appearance was ranked second.
The performance is first in line.
As soon as they walked down the red carpet, the staff who had been waiting in advance led the fifth group to rush backstage.
"This is your lounge." After taking the people to the place, the staff prepared to leave.
"Thank you, sister." Qiu Yuge smiled sweetly and thanked, which surprised the staff.
It’s not like I haven’t seen artists who are gentle towards staff before, but isn’t this fifth group a little too gentle?
She glanced at Wei Gu and Xin Yi who were following the other members, then glanced at Ding Ling who was pushing the door open and entered the room, secretly shocked.
Are the members too young? I feel like these assistants are even more arrogant than the artists themselves.
After all, they are a group with quite a lot of traffic. I heard that they have a lot of crazy fans. How come there are only three staff members following them?
They have six members.
Those unknown celebrities can lead three, four, five or six people by themselves.
Various thoughts flashed through his mind, but the staff member's expression did not change at all, except that his smile deepened.
"You're welcome. Change your clothes first and contact me if you have any questions."
After that, the staff left and everyone entered the lounge.
Unlike the glamorous red carpet that was being broadcast live, the backstage was noisy and busy.
Just when they were talking in the corridor for a short while, countless staff members hurried past at lightning speed.
Although the staff member who brought them here just now said that if they had any questions, they could contact her, Qiu Yuge didn't think they could find each other in the vast crowd.
Once the lounge door is closed, the noise outside is isolated.
Everyone's faces suddenly became more natural with polite smiles, and they talked enthusiastically about Lu Yao's final today.
"So you are the world champion now?" Zhu Xiangming's eyes lit up.
Lu Yao: “Yes.”
"Wow, that's amazing." Zhu Xiangming circled around Lu Yao.
World champion.
This is a really impressive title.
And the protagonist of such a resounding name is now in front of him.
"You actually managed to finish the match so many hours early," Bai You asked curiously. "So you've been able to win matches early before, right?"
When they discussed this grand ceremony performance at a meeting two weeks ago, they also had a discussion about the time conflict of Lu Yao's competition.
At that time, none of them thought that Lu Yao might not make it to the finals, so they were all worried that he would not be able to participate in today's performance.
As a result, Lu Yao told them not to worry.
And let Ding Ling respond in the form of a six-member group.
Everyone's heart was beating fast.
But Lu Yao never said anything he wasn't sure of, so everyone suppressed their worries and gathered at the company every night after school and the competition to practice the program.
However, although everyone had confidence in Lu Yao, it was not until they saw Lu Yao in the company today that everyone finally felt relieved.
But then again, they knew that Lu Yao was smart and capable, but they didn't expect Lu Yao to be so smart and capable.
In such a difficult international competition, Lu Yao was able to finish the game early.
What does this mean? It means that Lu Yao's chess skills are not just stronger than his opponents, but overwhelmingly stronger.
The opponent is so strong that he has no room to struggle or resist, so he will admit defeat so easily.
After almost a year of study, Bai You believed that he had gained some understanding of the art of Go.
When I watched the live broadcast these days, he was explaining it to the people around him.
But even though he already had a deep understanding of Lu Yao's chess skills, after watching today's game, Bai You realized that his understanding was still too shallow.
The makeup artist and stylist had already rushed to the lounge with the clothes. Lu Yao sat down and waited for her makeup to be done. She answered Bai You's question, "Yes."
Although he still had questions to ask, Bai You suppressed his desire to speak, sat down quietly, and let the makeup artist paint on his face.
For a moment, the entire lounge fell silent.
The only sound was the rustling of stylists adjusting clothes.
Ding Ling looked up.
Wei Gu and Xin Yi were like two door gods, sitting on the left and right of the room.
They seemed to be playing with their phones, but Ding Ling knew they were definitely not playing.
Look at the members again.
They all sat in their chairs as quiet as chickens.
Those without makeup are playing with their phones in a relaxed manner, while those with makeup are sitting upright on chairs playing with their phones.
Suddenly I remembered the last time I watched them putting on makeup in the dressing room.
During the concert.
It was just as quiet.
It was so quiet that the anger hidden in everyone's heart was clearly visible.
Ding Ling didn't know why the members were angry, she was just worried about the performance of the concert.
As a result, the concert held in anger was far beyond her expectations.
Very good.
It was so good that she received a sympathy call from the directors after the performance.
The words were all words of encouragement.
Let her do a good job, they have great prospects for the future development of the Fifth Regiment.
Development...
Ding Ling lowered her eyes. The mailbox page on the computer screen was filled with jobs waiting to be confirmed one after another, and invitations pouring in like a tide, making it difficult to keep up.
She opened and closed them one by one. There were many invitations that would have made her heart beat wildly and cheer loudly in the past, but at this moment, they could not stir up any waves in her.
The similar environment suddenly reminded her of the scene when she recorded her debut variety show last year.
At that time, everyone gathered together to put on makeup.
But even when we had to get up early every day, shoot a lot of movies and were under a lot of pressure, the lounge was still noisy every time.
Chen Jing, a fifth-generation makeup artist, also said that the most difficult thing about doing makeup for fifth-generation people is not doing the makeup, but maintaining the order of the makeup.
He was saying troubled words, but with a smile on his face.
Ding Ling also laughed.
Although she didn't know what the future of the members would be like at that time, there was no doubt that her heart was full of expectations for the future.
When these scenes appear in my mind again at this moment, it feels like a lifetime ago.
Suddenly, there was a crisp knock on the door.
Wei Gu, one of the door gods, went to open the door.
"Hello." A familiar face appeared through the crack in the door. It was the staff member who had brought them in. "I heard you were here, so Teacher Cheng Tianyang asked me to bring him to see you."
She turned slightly to the side, and Cheng Tianyang's figure appeared behind her.
"hello!"
Cheng Tianyang came in from the open door.
The staff outside and Wei Gu nodded slightly and left the practice room again.
Cheng Tianyang's lively voice broke the silence in the room.
Everyone turned their heads and stood up to greet Cheng Tianyang.
"Brother Tianyang!"
"Brother Cheng!"
"haven't seen you for a long time!"
"Oh!" Cheng Tianyang walked past each of their chairs one by one, and when Qiu Yuge and Cang Zizhen, who were putting on makeup, wanted to stand up and say hello, he stopped them, "Don't move, just put on your makeup, I just came to see you."
"I haven't seen you for more than half a year. You've grown a lot taller."
He glanced at Zhu Xiangming in front of him and came to a conclusion.
"How tall are you now?"
Zhu Xiangming smiled shyly: "1.83 meters tall."
"Wow." Cheng Tianyang stretched out his hand to gesture, "When we met before, you were only this tall."
He measured here and there, and finally stopped at the end of the eyebrow.
Zhu Xiangming smiled even more happily.
Cang Zizhen withdrew his gaze from the mirror.
The last time they met Cheng Tianyang was when they were recording "Unfinished Graduation", which was almost exactly half a year ago.
Zhu Xiangming only grew three centimeters taller in the past six months.
The height difference between the position Cheng Tianyang pointed to and Zhu Xiangming's current height is at least ten centimeters.
Which eighteen-year-old teenager can grow ten centimeters in half a year?
Are you crazy?
Cang Zizhen closed his eyes, which not only made it easier for the makeup artist to move, but also blocked the expression in his eyes.
Cheng Tianyang used to be enthusiastic towards them, but Cangzi could really feel that it was an outward enthusiasm for work, positive but not serious.
And now…
Listening to Cheng Tianyang's enthusiastic greeting, Cang Zizhen began to guess the other party's intentions.
"Wow, Lu Yao, you have changed so much." Cheng Tianyang walked around and came to the innermost side next to Lu Yao.
"Yes."
"Haha, I'm here to cheer you on." Cheng Tianyang greeted everyone, took a step back, and stood in the middle of the room: "You're about to perform, don't be nervous."
“Although there are many seniors sitting in the audience, performing here is actually no different from performing with you at a concert.”
"Relax, I believe in you."
"Thank you, Brother Tianyang." Yin Hongxue looked grateful.
Before performing at such a music festival, having seniors cheering them on is undoubtedly a great support.
Otherwise, for any group that has just debuted for half a year and has never performed in such an occasion, just thinking about the countless seniors and big names sitting in the audience would probably make them so nervous that their voices become taut, let alone performing in front of them.
Cheng Tianyang patted Zhu Xiangming's shoulder and asked with concern, "Are you nervous?"
Zhu Xiangming closed his eyes and felt his mood, then opened his eyes and shook his head: "I'm not nervous."
"Not nervous? That's great too. Just keep this attitude, the show will be over soon!"
Zhu Xiangming nodded: "Yeah."
"Then I'll leave first and not disturb you from putting on makeup."
"Goodbye, Brother Tianyang!"
"Bye-Bye!"
Accompanied by waving hands, the door of the lounge was closed again.
When there was no movement outside, Bai You couldn't help but turn around and look at Zhu Xiangming: "Brother Tianyang, are you here to say hello to us?"
Zhu Xiangming: "Didn't he just say to cheer us up and tell us not to be nervous?"
"??? We're not nervous? Are you nervous?"
Zhu Xiangming shook his head.
Bai You asked Yin Hongxue again: "Are you nervous?"
Yin Hongxue shook his head.
Cang Zizhen opened his eyes helplessly.
"Normally, I'd be nervous, right?" He looked at Zhu Xiangming. "Isn't your favorite singer, Ms. Tang Li, in the audience today? If I told you last year that you'd have to sing in front of Ms. Tang Li one day, would you be nervous?"
Zhu Xiangming thought about what Cang Zizhen said and shuddered: "I'm so nervous."
After the shock, he felt something was wrong. He covered his chest with his hands, looking surprised: "Is Teacher Tang Li in the audience today?"
Cangzi really wanted to sigh.
"Today, we have not only Teacher Tang Li in the audience, but also Teacher Yan Er, Teacher Ruan Yingwei, Teacher Qu Yinhua..." Cang Zizhen uttered a series of names. Each one of them is a singer with countless fans, and they are also the singers whose songs they grew up listening to.
Zhu Xiangming and Bai You looked at each other, and only then did they realize what the performance meant.
Cangzi really sighed: "What on earth have you been thinking about these days? Even if you didn't want to, you knew these people would come, right?"
Yin Hongxue approached Cang Zizhen and comforted him in a half-hearted manner: "It doesn't make any difference whether you know or not."
He laughed: "It's all the same anyway."
For them, this kind of scene no longer makes them nervous.
It’s a pity that Cheng Tianyang’s intentions were wasted.
