Chapter 93 Chapter 93 Thinking Too Much
Facing three pairs of sincere eyes, Lu Yao quickly gave his answer.
"From An."
Cong An clenched his fist and cheered: "Yeah!"
Then he sat down happily.
Then Qiu Yuge, Bai You, and Yin Hongxue also chose their teammates respectively, thus completing the first round of teammate selection.
Du Tang introduced the rules of the second round.
"The selection will be made in descending order based on the theme song rankings. The selected person cannot refuse."
Hearing this, Qiu Yuge and Bai You's expressions became a little worried.
With such rules, it is easy for the teammate you want to choose to be chosen by others.
But soon, Qiu Yuge's expression relaxed.
Although the teammates you want may not be selected, everyone’s abilities are actually pretty good, and no matter who is selected, they can put on an excellent performance.
Thinking of this, Qiu Yuge was no longer worried.
Lu Yao began to choose again.
He spoke very straightforwardly: "Lü Jianian."
When he heard his own name, Lu Jianian was startled. He pointed at himself and looked back at Lu Yao, but got no response. However, he turned around with joy.
Lu Yao really chose him.
Wow.
Sure enough, we still have to fight for it.
The next Bai You starts to choose.
Just now, Bai You chose Wanyuanzhou. In order not to disappoint the trust of Qiao Sinian who voted for him, he chose Qiao Sinian this time.
Qiu Yuge and Yin Hongxue behind them also chose the remaining person who voted for them.
The third round of selection.
Qiu Yuge, Bai You and Yin Hongxue all looked at Lu Yao.
Who will Lu Yao choose this time?
Lu Yao still spoke very straightforwardly: "Wang Mingzhi."
"Oh my god."
This time, Lu Jianian couldn't hold it back.
No, what did he hear?
Lu Yao chose Wang Mingzhi?
In other words, Lu Yao, Wang Mingzhi, Cong'an and him, the four of them will form a team to fight together?
Are you kidding me? Is it too late for him to quit now?
He wants to take first place!
No, even if they didn’t win first place, Lu Yao and Wang Mingzhi were in the same team. Wouldn’t they really fight in front of the camera?
That’s not right. With Lu Yao’s kung fu skills, if he wanted to fight, he would have done it long ago.
It seems that there is no way to fight.
But wait, even if it’s a quarrel, that’s not okay.
This is a debut variety show. If they had a quarrel right there, it wouldn't be considered a quarrel on Lu Yao's part. But even if it was Lu Jianian who started the quarrel unilaterally, that wouldn't be okay.
Lu Jianian couldn't even imagine how lively the trending searches were.
How bad will their reputation be in the fifth generation by then?
He still wants to continue staying in the entertainment industry.
No, what is Lu Yao thinking about?
Lu Jianian couldn't understand.
Wang Mingzhi was also confused.
He spun around so much that the chair beneath him spun half a circle. "You chose me?!"
Are you serious?
"I choose you." Lu Yao looked at Wang Mingzhi: "I hope you remember what you just said."
amazing.
Qiu Yuge silently closed his chin with his hand.
The development of events was completely beyond everyone's expectations.
Lu Yao and Wang Mingzhi are in the same team.
The scene was so beautiful that they dared not look at it.
Du Tang keenly noticed the change in the atmosphere among the trainees. Lu Yao chose Wang Mingzhi, so there must be a big problem.
He didn't know, but he could ask.
He took out his cell phone and immediately recorded it.
During the interview preparation stage, no one can escape the fate of being asked questions.
Despite the surprise, the recording continued and the subsequent divisions went smoothly. The final four teams were:
Lu Yao team, team members are Cong An, Wang Mingzhi, and Lu Jianian.
Team Bai You, Wan Yuanzhou, Qiao Sinian, Cang Zizhen.
Qiu Yuge, Luo Wenbo, Huang Xi, Wu Anyi.
Team Yin Hongxue, Wu Hai, Jiang Mu, and Zhu Xiangming.
The configuration is unexpectedly reasonable.
Each team has singing, dancing and rapping.
Now there won’t be too much trouble in the subsequent song selection process.
If you don't have a particular preference and can sing every song, it doesn't matter which one you choose.
So the song selection session ended harmoniously.
The song chosen by Lu Yao's team is "Night", a powerful boy group song with a hint of sexiness.
The song chosen by the Baiyou team is "Fall", which was originally a lyrical song. In the DEMO just played, it was adapted into a more intense style. The interweaving of vocals and RAP is very impressive. Coupled with Qiao Sinian's dance, it will be a very special stage.
The song chosen by the Qiu Yu Chorus is "Laila", which is a hit song of the first generation group and a very nice song.
The song chosen by Yin Hongxue's team is "Spark", a girl group song.
After the division into teams and song selection were completed, everyone moved to their respective team's practice rooms and began to prepare for class practice.
The other teams were bustling with activity, but Lu Yao's team was very silent.
Wang Mingzhi walked in front, Cong An and Lu Jianian walked in the middle, and Lu Yao followed at the end.
The four people who were filming all crowded in front of Wang Mingzhi, backing away while taking pictures of everyone.
Wonderful, everyone's expression is wonderful——
Oh, except Lu Yao.
Wang Mingzhi's expression was visibly nervous, Cong An's face was stiff, and Lu Jianian looked ready to die.
It's amazing.
The reason for all this is Lu Yao, whose expression is as calm as ever, and no special emotions can be seen from him, as if this is just an ordinary day like any other.
Soon, the four of them arrived at the practice room, and the cameramen got behind the wall to shoot panoramic, individual, and separate shots.
The practice room for four people was crammed with five cameramen and three screenwriters, plus assistants who came and went at irregular intervals.
The room looks empty, but it is actually full of people.
It’s not time for class yet. According to what the director just said, everyone should first talk about their ideas about the song in front of the camera, then divide the song into parts, and also choose the C position.
Cong An, Lu Jianian and Wang Mingzhi sat on the ground with the lyrics in their hands, forming a circle. Without saying a word, they all looked towards the corner of the practice room.
As soon as he came in, Lu Yao stopped. After they sat down, he chose a place at a certain distance from them and sat down. He didn't seem to have any intention of joining their discussion.
Seeing this, Cong An couldn't help but think of the fourth quadrant assessment.
At that time, he was in the same team with Lu Yao. Every time they discussed songwriting or practicing in the practice room, Lu Yao would be like this. He would not join their conversation, but just sit beside them. Only when they were completely unable to continue the discussion would he suddenly speak up, express his opinions, and then be quiet again.
Very low presence.
Just like he usually does in life.
If you don't pay attention, you might not even notice his existence.
Cong An suddenly felt like he was back in the company.
But...he voted for Lu Yao this time not for the same reason as before.
He looked at Lu Jianian, and Lu Jianian happened to look at him. The two did not speak, but inexplicably, they both understood each other's thoughts.
Just as Cong An was about to speak, Wang Mingzhi's voice rang out first.
"Lu Yao, can you help us?"
Cong An's eyes moved and he met Lu Jianian's gaze again.
It seems that Wang Mingzhi has the same idea as them?
Yes, if you didn’t have the same idea, why would you invest in Lu Yao?
Lu Yao looked over.
"I want to take first place." Wang Mingzhi looked at Cong'an and Lu Jianian, "You guys want to take first place too, right?"
Cong An and Lu Jianian nodded.
Wang Mingzhi looked at Lu Yao again: "So, can you lead us to first place?"
*
That night, the trainees prepared for interviews again.
Liu Shu was getting ready in the preparation room, full of confidence.
This time the preparation will be done in groups.
According to the strong request of a number of directors and screenwriters, Lu Yao's team received the first group of preparations for interviews.
The first person to come to the procurement room was Cong An.
Liu Shu asked the first question: "Why did you vote for Lu Yao?"
Cong An: "Because he is very strong."
"Then why not vote for Bai You?"
"Uh..." Cong An scratched his head, "Bai You is certainly strong too, but they are strong in different ways."
"Why is it different?"
"Well..." Cong An sorted out his words, "It's hard to say."
What should he say?
“It’s just very strong.”
Liu Shu: ...
Liu Shu didn't hesitate and directly asked the most crucial question: "Is there a conflict between Lu Yao and Wang Mingzhi?"
"Ah, this..." Cong An was fidgeting, "Is there any?"
Liu Shu:?
Who are you asking? Are you asking me?
How would she know?
"Didn't Wang Mingzhi say that when we were splitting up this morning?"
"Ah..." Cong An suddenly realized, "Well, um... uh... oh, I can't really explain it."
Liu Shu: ...
It’s so hard to ask, it’s really so hard to ask.
Rather than asking one Cong'an like this, she would rather ask a hundred Lu Yaos.
At least Lu Yao can give an answer.
Instead of being like Cong'an, who was confused for a long time and couldn't say a word.
"What's the relationship between Lu Yao and Wang Mingzhi?"
This time, An finally managed to utter a complete sentence: "It's okay."
? ?
good?
Wang Mingzhi said in front of the camera that they had a conflict, but Cong An actually said that their relationship was okay?
Does Cong'an have any misunderstandings about relationships between people?
"But didn't Wang Mingzhi say he had a conflict with Lu Yao?"
"Oh." Cong An looked helpless. "Then this has nothing to do with Lu Yao. At that time, Wang Ming knew that he... Uh, well, Lu Yao is fine anyway. He just has his own world."
Liu Shu: ...
Liu Shu understood.
Cong'an is trying to make up for Lu Yao.
So there was indeed something wrong between Lu Yao and Wang Mingzhi.
After An's interview, it was Lu Jianian's turn.
Liu Shu took action again.
"Why did you vote for Lu Yao?"
Lu Jianian answered simply: "Because I want to win."
"Can we win by being on the same team with him?"
Lu Jianian: "That's not true. Every team has a chance to win."
"Then why did you vote for Lu Yao?"
Lu Jianian: "Well... because he's more powerful."
"Bai You is also very strong?"
Lu Jianian: "You can't compare them like that. They have different strengths."
"What's so strong about it?"
Lu Jianian: "Hmm...how should I put this? I'm not sure."
Liu Shu: ? ?
So what is the strength?
"Then what's the conflict between Lu Yao and Wang Mingzhi?"
Lu Jianian was troubled: "Do they have conflicts? Count...? But it's still okay... right?"
Is a one-sided contradiction also considered a contradiction?
Besides the fact that Wang Mingzhi dislikes Lu Yao, hasn't Lu Yao always treated Wang Mingzhi as air?
Liu Shu changed the question: "Don't they have any conflicts?"
Lu Jianian was stumped: "Is there no contradiction?"
He didn't seem quite sure either.
Liu Shu: ...
Who will save her?
After Lu Jianian's interview ended, Liu Shu sighed deeply in the preparation room.
Why is it that when Lu Yao is asked, these people's answers are so incoherent and they can't say anything?
Yes is yes, no is no, is it so difficult to answer?
Is there a contradiction? Is this something difficult to judge?
Liu Shu adjusted his mood and greeted the next interviewee again.
The person involved.
Wang Mingzhi.
It's still the same old problem.
"Why did you vote for Lu Yao?"
Wang Mingzhi had long since gotten over his hesitation and answered the question readily, "Because he's very strong."
"Then why don't you vote for Bai You?"
"Bai You is also very strong, but Lu Yao is even stronger than him."
Wang Mingzhi was so happy that Liu Shu was almost unable to react.
Just that simple?
She immediately asked: "Do you have any conflicts with Lu Yao?"
Wang Mingzhi still said simply: "No."
Liu Shu: ? ?
No?
Wang Mingzhi clearly said it was available during the recording in the morning, so why is it gone now?
"Didn't you say yes this morning?"
Wang Mingzhi explained, "We just don't get along. It's a personality issue, not a conflict. After all, there are so many people in the world, and everyone has different personalities. You can't expect everyone to get along the same way, right? Some personalities just don't naturally get along, but that doesn't mean there will be conflicts."
What a good answer.
Finished explaining it to myself.
The statement is completely different from that of Cong'an and Lu Jianian.
So is there any conflict between Lu Yao and Wang Mingzhi?
With doubts in mind, Liu Shu welcomed the second party, Lu Yao.
It still starts with the same old question.
"So many people voted for you to be the captain. What do you think?"
Lu Yao: “I don’t have any ideas.”
"Everyone says they voted for you because you're strong. What do you think?"
Lu Yao: "I am indeed very strong."
Wow.
So confident.
Liu Shu perked up.
It has to be Lu Yao.
Interviewing him is much more interesting than interviewing others.
"This morning, Wang Mingzhi said he had a conflict with you. What kind of conflict is it?" Liu Shu quietly changed his words.
Lu Yao's answer was beyond Liu Shu's expectations, "Wang Mingzhi and I have no conflicts."
? ?
Liu Shu was puzzled.
No, what happened?
"Wang Ming knew that what he said contradicted you, so why is there no contradiction now?"
Lu Yao: "That's what he said. It has nothing to do with me."
?
Aren’t relationships mutual?
Is it a one-sided conflict?
After the interview, Liu Shu felt even more confused.
After interviewing all the trainees and handing the interview results to Du Tang, the doubts shifted from Liu Shu to Du Tang.
The relationship between the fifth-generation trainees seems to be even more confusing?
So, is there any conflict between Lu Yao and Wang Mingzhi?
The staff of the program team have not yet got the answer to this question, but they will soon get the answer to another question.
That is why Cong An and others voted for Lu Yao.
After the first day of classes, the trainees have basically learned the dances and songs of their respective teams. The next thing they have to do is to practice continuously and present the songs in the most perfect state on the first public stage.
Starting from the second day of practice, all the staff members saw Lu Yao's strength thoroughly.
"You're late."
As soon as Fan Mincai and the cameraman set up the camera, they heard Lu Yao's voice coming from the headset.
He took out his cell phone and looked at it. It was 05:01. Only one minute had passed. Was this considered late?
Well, for Lu Yao, it might really be considered late.
Cong'an in the camera was still panting. He ran so fast that he felt his heart was about to jump out. But when he heard Lu Yao's words, he immediately stood up straight and said, "I'm sorry, this is the first time I get up so early. I won't do it again!"
Arriving at the practice room for training at five o'clock meant that he had to get up at four fifty at the latest. God knows he had never gotten up so early in his life.
Lu Yao looked at Lu Jianian.
Lu Jianian was also running so hard that his heart, liver, spleen, lungs and kidneys ached. When he saw Lu Yao's gaze, he shuddered and immediately explained: "I didn't hear the alarm clock."
If Cong An hadn't called him, he might have overslept.
How scary.
The only survivor, Wang Mingzhi, consciously stayed away and did not get close.
Even though they were on the same team, Lu Yao still cared about the distance, which was even farther than before.
He was still hoping to practice well, so it was better not to touch upon Lu Yao's bottom line.
After the breathing became smooth, the practice officially began.
The music started and everyone started from the beginning. After it was finished once, Lu Yao stopped.
Without any prelude, he immediately made a request: "Big moves, pay attention to the rhythm."
Then the music plays again and dances again.
Lu Yao made another request: "Pay attention to the intensity."
Dance again.
Fan Mincai was still yawning when he saw the four people in the practice room had already danced three times very efficiently.
Then Lu Yao began to work on the details.
Start with the first action.
"Use your shoulders to push forward, and stop when you click."
Fan Mincai signaled the cameraman to point the camera at Lu Yao.
In the camera, Lu Yao, who lowered his eyes to emphasize his movements, looked focused and serious, with a mature charm beyond his age.
The program has been recorded for more than a week. Even if we don’t count what Lu Yao did on the first day, all the staff of the program team were impressed by Lu Yao in the following days.
It's not because of his outstanding strength, nor because of his outstanding appearance, but because of something that gradually reveals itself over time.
On the first day of recording, Lu Yao unilaterally ended the preparations.
On the second day of recording, Lu Yao took the microphone and asked to change the camera in the studio.
On the third day of filming, faced with the outfits given by the stylist, he questioned them on the spot: "Minghui Entertainment should have given us some clothing guidelines, why didn't the production team follow them?" The stylist went back and spent most of the day looking through the notes, finally finding the one about Lu Yao's clothing among the thick documents: no short-sleeved shirts or shorts.
So the stylist made modifications overnight, and finally got Lu Yao to wear the uniform for the theme song recording the next day.
On the fourth day of recording, a director was in the monitoring room late at night to check on the trainees in the dormitory, but he didn't see Lu Yao. He was so scared that he adjusted the video up and down for a long time, but found that Lu Yao had not returned to the dormitory at all. He then hurriedly called Ding Ling, but got the reply "don't worry".
No, a fourteen-year-old trainee went missing in the middle of the night, and we weren't worried?
When the director checked the video again, he found that Lu Yao got up very early not only at night, but also in the morning before dawn, so early that it was ridiculous.
On the fifth day of recording, Lu Yao proposed his own desired menu for the food in the cafeteria, and then did not eat anything. This frightened Du Tang so much that he quickly found a new chef that night and made a midnight snack for everyone according to Lu Yao's recipe.
Day 6 of recording...
Whenever Fan Mincai recalls the past, every little detail is filled with blood and tears.
In addition, during practice, Lu Yao would wander off without a trace; during filming, others would actively respond, but Lu Yao would remain silent, like a dummy; during breaks, Lu Yao would play chess on the sidelines; when the director approached the trainees to discuss details, Lu Yao would directly refute and say it was unreasonable, and he would refuse to accept it; when the teacher wanted to give instructions on movements during class, Lu Yao would refuse physical contact...
Fan Mincai’s mind was filled with images of Lu Yao’s various non-cooperations.
But none of that matters.
In the entertainment industry, the artists you work with can be difficult to deal with, can be picky, can act like big shots, and can make unreasonable demands... The staff of the program crew are all experienced and not afraid to deal with these, but Lu Yao is not.
He made these 'unreasonable' demands, not targeting the demands themselves, but the people who made them.
Those who harbored 'malice' towards him.
After spending the past few days together, Fan Mincai discovered that Lu Yao's perception of other people's emotions was shockingly keen.
After Lu Yao discovered several staff members who were trying to leak the information, they suddenly realized that the reason why Lu Yao was able to discover the pedophile was not because of what the pedophile said or did, but because of the man's eyes.
The pedophile looked at Lu Yao, and then Lu Yao discovered him.
How terrible.
It's so easy to see through other people's disguises.
The work is hard and tiring, revising plans is annoying, and overtime is painful, but none of them are as terrifying as Lu Yao's eyes.
The moment you look into his eyes, you will feel like you are being seen through and nothing can escape your gaze.
But no one dared to really ask Lu Yao, "Do you see what I'm thinking?"
They just speculated over and over again from the clues. Lu Yao discovered a pedophile, Lu Yao discovered someone who wanted to expose the news, and Lu Yao discovered...
So what exactly could Lu Yao discover?
Fan Mincai looked at Lu Yao in the camera. The other party had already started a new round of dance practice. Fine beads of sweat appeared on the foreheads of An and others, but Lu Yao's face was still smooth, and even his expression did not change at all.
Calm, focused, beautiful.
Non-aggressive.
Just like the carnivorous plant in the jungle that exudes a sweet scent, it attracts enemies with its harmless appearance.
Lu Yao raised his eyes and met Fan Mincai's gaze through the camera.
Fan Min was suddenly brought back to his senses by Lu Yao's cold gaze.
Hahahaha, what was he thinking about a fourteen-year-old kid?
Fear? Piranha Plant?
enemy?
They are just recording a variety show, where do all this mess come from?
There are many highly sensitive people. Being sensitive to other people's emotions can indeed cause pain to the person involved. However, some people swallow the pain themselves, while Lu Yao directly externalizes the pain, choosing to consume others and let himself go.
Do you have ill will towards me? That's your fault. Go back and reflect on it. It has nothing to do with Lu Yao.
It’s good. Fan Min finally felt that this was really good.
It just makes them feel bad.
After all, anyone would feel embarrassed if their inner thoughts were pointed out directly.
Wait a minute? Isn't Wang Mingzhi the same?
Fan Min's eyes lit up and he felt that he might have discovered the truth.
