Chapter 33 Chapter 33 Stage
The concert schedule had already been sent to the trainees. After the first pure dance performance of "CRAZY" by all members, there were four performances for the first assessment of the "Fifth Quadrant" project.
Yin Hongxue's duet rap "FREEDOM", Zhu Xiangming's duet singing "King", Bai You's five-person singing and dancing "FIRE", and Qiu Yuge's three-person rap "Rhapsody".
The order is derived from a draw.
The VCR recorded in advance by Yin Hongxue and Wan Yuanzhou began to play on the big screen, while the two of them were racing against time to change clothes and put on makeup backstage. The people on the other three stages were a little more relaxed, as there was time for the performances on other stages ahead, which was enough for them to take a break.
In three minutes, Yin Hongxue and Wan Yuanzhou had changed their clothes, and the makeup artists were in place with makeup brushes. As soon as the two appeared, their makeup fell on their faces, and the hairstylist was also styling their hair at the same time. In just a few moments, the makeup of the two was completed.
The VCR at the front desk was coming to an end, and the two rushed towards the stage, stepping onto the lift platform as the countdown sounded.
Lu Yao changed his clothes in the lounge and walked into the dressing room.
The busy trainees did not notice Lu Yao's arrival. Only Bai You and Qiu Yuge, who knew the truth, noticed Lu Yao's arrival at the first time, and worried expressions appeared on their faces.
The TV in the dressing room started playing the stage scene, and the trainees looked over.
The song "FREEDOM" chosen by Yin Hongxue is a lyrical RAP song. It does not have strong drum beats or complex chords, but a leisurely narrative, supplemented by vocal humming, which has a slight sadness.
Yin Hongxue, with short blue hair, looked at the camera and sang the first line of the lyrics.
"I packed my bags and headed for my dream"
Yin Hongxue has large, round eyes. In the early days of the fifth generation of the development system, his deep features and round face made him very cute. As time passed, he gradually grew up, his facial features faded and his edges became more pronounced. As Yin Hongxue's childhood personality, which was hidden by his cute appearance, was revealed.
Not only is he not cute, he is actually vicious.
"I thought I could touch the sun at the end of the sky
But under my gaze, the morning light was crushed and its wings were imprisoned."
He walked forward step by step, and the shadows at the corners of his eyes were revealed under the light. The black lines outlined the shape of his eyes, which were very dark and heavy.
Yin Hongxue stretched out the corners of his mouth, looking dejected and disdainful.
“They say it’s a badge of growth.
But every midnight I hear the echo of chains
The pupils in the mirror lost their firelight."
He stopped and reached up to the sky, but caught nothing.
The lights dimmed, casting a dark shadow.
Wanyuanzhou's singing rang out.
"I closed my eyes and heard the distant tide
The heartbeat responds to the frequency of freedom"
Under the lights, Wan Yuanzhou was dressed in a white suit, looking like an elegant prince, with translucent wings on his ears like an elf. He closed his eyes and immersed himself in the singing.
"If flying is bound to get hurt
That’s better than being stuck here.”
As one of the five generations of singers, Wan Yuanzhou has a deep and mellow voice. It is not the clear voice that pierces the eardrums and penetrates the mind, but a low whisper that slowly draws people into the aftertaste of the music.
Yin Hongxue's voice rang out again, and the two of them sang in unison, overcoming the initial confusion and determining the direction of progress.
"When the luggage transforms into a cocoon of wings
Salvaging the moon from the broken pieces
Freedom is the sound of all the trophies being smashed."
“Freedom—— is the expectation of heartbeat
Freedom—— is the romance of breathing
My soul has no boundaries
As long as your heart beats, take risks."
Yin Hongxue looked directly into the camera, her eyes full of strength, as if expressing her determination to pursue freedom.
When the song ended, there was warm applause from the audience. Fans shouted Yin Hongxue's name loudly, and blue light signs were waving and making a rustling sound.
Yin Hongxue and Wan Yuanzhou bowed and expressed their gratitude before walking off the stage.
The VCR of the next song "King" began to play on the big screen.
Zhu Xiangming and Huang Xi had already stood on the lifting platform. The staff on the stage were arranging the props, and a uniform shout rang out from the scene.
"Zhu Xiangming! Zhu Xiangming! Zhu Xiangming!"
Large patches of yellow lit up on the TV in the dressing room. Looking closely, they were all red characters.
Yellow is Zhu Xiangming's support color.
Zhu Xiangming, who is also the lead singer, has a deep voice, but unlike Wan Yuanzhou's, Zhu Xiangming's voice carries a casual laziness. When he stands on the stage and looks down, that casual smile is the most memorable one.
Thick eyebrows, simple eyes, distinct angles, and conflicting facial features are just like Zhu Xiangming himself, who possesses a unique charm.
Just like his song this time - "The King".
The VCR playback was coming to an end. In the video, Zhu Xiangming was wearing a cloak that symbolized a king. He was standing on an overpass late at night with Huang Xi, who played a warrior, and he waved his hand at the sparse traffic below.
"Look! This is the kingdom I built for you!"
The warrior looked at me in awe and raised the long sword in his hand which was emitting a dazzling light.
"The king yawned on his throne with his legs crossed"
As the music started, Zhu Xiangming sat on a gorgeous golden chair, crossed his legs, propped up his chin with his index finger, and looked at the camera with squinting eyes, like an arrogant king.
"Your Majesty! The dragon has stolen our food again!"
Huang Xi rushed in, his armor clanking.
Zhu Xiangming scratched his ears and sang nonchalantly, "Then why don't you chop it twice?"
With humorous lyrics and exaggerated interpretation, this doesn't sound like a song, but more like a stage play.
—but happy enough.
The prolonged applause after the end showed the fans' love for this stage.
Zhu Xiangming and Huang Xi left the field. Bai You led his four teammates onto the lift platform. The VCR was playing and Ding Ling followed behind.
She couldn't help but worry.
Bai You took a step back and stood beside Lu Yao, "Are you okay?"
"I'm fine." Lu Yao shook his head and said this answer for the fifth time today.
The lights flickered and fell on Lu Yao's face, making Bai You unable to see his expression. Only the metal earrings on his ears reflected the stage lights.
Qiao Sinian and Cong'an looked back curiously. Bai You swallowed back what he wanted to say. Now was not the time to speak.
"Come on." Bai You said.
The stage is about to begin and they have no room to retreat.
He took a deep breath, walked to the front, and stood in formation.
Soon, the VCR ended, the lights dimmed, and the lights moved upwards. Lu Yao's eyes lit up, and the gorgeous stage appeared again.
There is music ringing in my ears, a wave of passion in front of me, and waves of pain behind me.
Lu Yao curled up the corners of his mouth. The pain made his senses more acute. Everything seemed to be magnified countless times. His hair hung from his ears, his clothes rubbed against his body, and the cheers of his fans were like flames, lighting up the stage.
“Let’s go!”
Bai You waved forward, and accompanied by the music, the five people began to dance to the rhythm of the drums.
Powerful movements, neat steps, accompanied by Bai You's penetrating voice, filled the entire venue under the colorful lights.
"Oh oh oh oh~ The flames are spreading
Oh oh oh oh~ heartbeats are overlapping
Oh oh oh oh~ No one can stop
This is my time——”
The five people on the stage were no longer individuals in the neatly arranged sword dance, but were like one whole.
"The smell of gunpowder is spreading, my steps are like lightning
Haters open their mouths like old cassette records"
Cang Zizhen jumped out and a long RAP came out quickly. His smoky voice did not need any deliberate effects. Just a simple FLOW was enough to have the charm to blow up the whole audience.
In the dance break segment, Qiao Sinian and Bai You stood in the center position, demonstrating their absolute strength in dancing.
Finally, Lu Yao stepped forward and sang the high notes effortlessly in front of everyone's gaze.
——Thunderous applause.
Bai You was breathing rapidly, with a happy smile on his face. Beads of sweat flowed down his forehead, which he casually wiped away with his hand.
Fatigue is the most insignificant thing at this moment.
Everyone left the stage, and Lu Yao, led by Ding Ling, went to the lounge to change clothes. The VCR of the last set of "Rhapsody" was playing on the stage.
From the moment Qiu Yuge's face appeared on the screen, screams began to resound and never stopped. Lu Yao could see the red reflection on the wall without even looking back.
That is Qiu Yuge's support color.
For this concert, Qiu Yuge dyed her hair red.
His bright facial features and strong colors complement each other perfectly. From the moment he stepped onto the stage, he became the absolute focus of attention and no one could look away.
The photographer was also impressed by this gorgeousness and projected a close-up of Qiu Yuge on the big screen. The facial features were magnified hundreds of times, which brought a hundred times the shock, which came from people's natural yearning for beauty.
The music started, Qiu Yuge looked up under the light, raised his hand and sang his first line.
"Ei, standing in the center of this stage
Sweat is a medal of honor
The spotlight is on me
Every step is strong"
The confident lyrics are just like Qiu Yuge's absolute momentum on the stage. At this moment, he is undoubtedly the king.
“No one needs to grade or stamp
Strength is the best award
Those questioning eyes
Will eventually become admiration
Now please listen carefully
This is my time
He walked down the stairs, with darkness falling behind him and dazzling lights in front of him.
Behind him, Luo Wenbo appeared.
“This is my crazy idea
Soaring in the notes
Luo Wenbo, wearing black sunglasses, put his hands together, and a kind of "beeping" temperament was naturally revealed. There was no need to pretend, he was the B-King on the stage.
A series of lyrics ended, followed by Wu Hai.
Unlike Wanyuanzhou and Huang Xi, who are the singing leaders, Wu Hai also has certain RAP skills. At this moment, on the stage of "Rhapsody", he once again demonstrated this.
"When the applause
Dreams are never fantasies
Just dare to think, that’s enough.”
When the song ended, the names of Qiu Yuge and the other two resounded throughout the venue.
