Chapter 133 The third release 5.0
With Weiran taking his seat in the pyramid, only the seven positions at the top and the one at the end remained to be revealed.
Qu Qinghuan stood on the stage, his eyes slowly sweeping over the different expressions of the contestants below.
Some people have lost hope and feel that they have no chance at all, with a bitter smile on their lips.
Some people still hold on to a last glimmer of hope, with a faint light glimmering in their eyes, obviously thinking that they can fight for the last admission spot.
On the contrary, most of the contestants who have the hope of competing for the debut spot have calm expressions, as if at this moment, their emotions have already been exhausted by rounds of waiting.
Xie Qingyu continued to stare quietly at the podium. The moment his eyes met Qu Qinghuan's, he smiled softly and asked a question:
"Contestant Qingyu, who do you think will be ranked 7th in the third round of ranking announcements?"
This position belongs to Xie Qingyu in the first order, Sun Lele in the second order, and as for the third order...
Xie Qingyu is also unclear, so let the production team do whatever they want.
But he has never been an emotional person. Even if he thought so in his heart, he would not show it on his face.
Venting your emotions on the innocent Qu Qinghuan?
That's not true nature, that's stupidity.
His thoughts raced for only a moment. After Qu Qinghuan asked the question, Xie Qingyu's eyebrows curved slightly, revealing a perfect smile: "I don't know either~ Teacher Qu should know~"
Looking at his flawless appearance, Qu Qinghuan understood that this slippery contestant was not planning to cooperate with the program team's introduction of the topic at the moment.
She calmly flipped through the densely packed script on her cue card and continued with the next step.
After cleverly introducing several backup topics to fill the recording gaps, Qu Qinghuan finally began to officially announce the rankings.
Since Rio fell from the debut position, naturally there must be a contestant to fill the vacancy.
So when Qu Qinghuan announced that the 7th place was You Jinzhao, there was not much commotion at the scene and no one was surprised.
After all, You Jinchao is not a latecomer. He had already reached the debut position when he was in the first round, but unfortunately he slipped due to his poor performance in the second round.
It is normal to return to this position now.
The moment he heard his name, the tense string in You Jinzhao's heart finally relaxed.
He secretly breathed a sigh of relief, as this ranking meant there was still hope.
As long as you work harder and keep steady, the dawn of your debut will be right in front of you. Success or failure depends on this one move. You must not fail at the last moment!
Especially after today, the rankings are still being announced in full swing.
When Sun Lele's name was read out by Qu Qinghuan, there was a burst of good-natured laughter at the scene.
This player, who had been making steady progress since the start, now had his mouth corners raised uncontrollably.
"6th place... 6th place!" Sun Lele blurted out these words into the microphone after he stood on the stage. Then he realized his gaffe and quickly covered his mouth, but he couldn't hide the joy in the corners of his eyes and eyebrows.
The contestants in the audience were amused by his appearance. Some of them cheered and applauded, while others laughed and shook their heads.
Indeed, from 10th in the first round, to 7th in the second round, and now to 6th in the third round, Sun Lele is like a tireless climber, taking every step steadily and firmly.
Although the progress is not large, this continued upward momentum is more reassuring.
"Thank you everyone, I will keep working hard!" He bowed deeply to the camera, and when he stood up, his eyes were shining with tiny lights, as if they were filled with lights from the entire stage.
As he turned and walked towards the pyramid, he couldn't help but look back at the podium, as if he wanted to engrave this moment firmly in his memory.
The future is promising - this thought kept swirling in his mind.
Yes, as long as we keep up this pace, debuting will no longer seem like an unattainable dream.
Thinking of this, his steps became lighter, and his whole body seemed to be glowing.
When Qu Qinghuan announced that Qian Song was ranked fifth, the reaction at the scene was quite calm.
Actually, this player can be considered as someone who fell from the upper rank of the second pick to the lower rank.
But after Leo's sudden loss of the 'Special Prize', this level of ranking fluctuation was unlikely to cause any waves.
After all, they are people who have seen the 'big world'!
When you open your eyes and see that you are still in the debut candidate circle, then the problem is not that big.
This strange calmness made the whole scene seem both absurd and reasonable.
Even Qian Song himself couldn't help but smile as if he had survived a disaster.
If Leo hadn't fallen in the same way before, even if I had expected to drop in ranking, I would still inevitably feel disappointed.
But now, although my ranking has clearly dropped, I inexplicably feel a sense of relief that "fortunately, it didn't drop too badly."
Even he himself found this abnormal mentality incredible and really strange.
If Xie Qingyu knew what he was thinking, he would definitely point out bluntly: This is an obedience test carefully designed by the program team.
First use extreme cases to break through the psychological defenses, and then let the contestants be grateful for normal setbacks.
When the killer move is used to make a big move on the night of the group formation, the contestants who have already been tamed will not even have the thought of resisting.
Looking at Qian Song's slightly staggering back as he walked towards the pyramid seats after finishing his speech, Xie Qingyu's fingertips tapped unconsciously on his knees.
Although Qian Song's injuries on the Sangong stage were treated by the base's medical staff, the injuries were serious and he did not receive medical treatment, so his recovery progress was naturally slow.
What's more, after the recording was made, he finally confessed under everyone's questioning that he had a back injury before. The new injury covered the old one, and he was unwilling to go to the hospital. It became impossible for him to avoid sequelae.
The songs for the group's formation night are coming up soon, and the training intensity is definitely not small. Judging from the conclusion Xie Qingyu has drawn from his observations now, he should be prepared to endure it and wait until the finals are over.
Xie Qingyu was willing to share his few good fortunes with him, hoping that this stubborn but not so lucky man would finally get the best reward that belonged to him!
As a key node connecting the past and the future, the 4th place to be announced next has always been a battleground for strategists - it can advance to challenge the top three, and retreat to maintain the middle position, which can be called a strategic point.
However, this position seems to be cursed: Rio, who was at the top of this list in the first round, has slipped to 9th place, and Gu Qiong fell directly from the top of the list to this position in the second round.
Many contestants who believe in Feng Shui have already secretly labeled this seat as "unlucky". Otherwise, how to explain this strange series of falls?
And this time, the person sitting in this position will be...
"The fourth-placed contestant is Bai Lang, with a total of 16,587,714 votes. Congratulations!"
At this moment, all the contestants in the audience had the same thought: Are those in the debut position performing a "three-in-one elimination"?
If you fall, I fall too. Now we are competing to see who falls harder?
When the initiator Qu Qinghuan read out his name, Bai Lang was not too worried in his heart.
However, he still deliberately lowered his eyes, and even slightly turned his angle to adjust his posture - this kind of behavior was certainly not for the program crew to see.
After all, the contestants have already reached a consensus: the production team has no heart!!!
As for who this performance was for... when he caught a glimpse of the familiar corner of clothes from the corner of his eye, a genuine smile finally appeared in his eyes. Isn't it coming?
Wei Liangchen was originally standing between Xie Qingyu and Bai Lang, but when he turned around, he caught a glimpse of the rare loneliness between Bai Lang's brows.
This person who usually wears a mask that says "keep away from strangers" can actually show such an expression.
It's really hell...
Xie Qingyu looked at his friends who kept falling down the rankings, and he was almost infected by the emo mood.
Remembering Wei Liangchen's teasing when he gave him the 'Poison Queen' mug, he even began to doubt whether he really had a cursed physique.
Otherwise, why would the closer one gets to him, the more unlucky one would be?
Xie Qingyu pursed her lips slightly, stood up and walked towards Bai Yan.
Whether it is encouragement or comfort, such behavior is not considered out of line even in front of the camera.
However, he had just taken two steps when he was intercepted by the expected person.
Wei Liangchen stepped in between the two of them, put his arm familiarly on Bai Lang's shoulder, patted him hard, his eyes filled with exaggerated encouragement.
Gu Yan in the front row raised his eyebrows, and walked around to the other side of Bai Yan, and put his arm around his other shoulder as if they were good brothers from the same company. His action was so natural that there was nothing wrong with it.
Bai Lang caught a glimpse of Xie Qingyu's intention to retreat, and his ears were filled with the noisy voices of the two "enthusiastic people", which was very irritating.
He used his years of dancing experience to deftly spin out of the two men's arms, but he deliberately stumbled as he broke through, falling forward.
Gu Yan stretched his legs against the ground and almost laughed out loud.
This fake fall was really perfunctory. The leaps he made during normal dance practice were ten times larger than this.
But the person he wanted to hook finally took the bait.
After all, Xie Qingyu was standing in the opposite corner, so it was impossible for him to just watch the other person fall.
He quickly stepped forward and held Bai Lang's elbow. When he touched the other's slightly cold fingertips, he realized belatedly that this was a poor acting.
Of course, Bai Lang is not so weak in normal times, but who made him a poor man who was "hit by the ranking" now?
It's reasonable to be vulnerable.
After getting the expected response, Bai Lang quickly withdrew.
The two of them have the double-edged sword of CP fans hanging over their heads. It's okay for them to interact normally in front of the camera, but going overboard will not benefit anyone.
As Bai Lang's ranking was finalized, the eyes and cameras of the entire studio all focused on Xie Qingyu, Gu Yan and Wei Liangchen - the top three candidates were no longer a surprise.
The ranking announcement at this moment is more like the performance of a pre-set script, unless the program team dares to let Xie Qingyu fall out of the top three.
But everyone knows that this is tantamount to playing with fire.
Today's Xie Qingyu fan club is no longer what it used to be. If they really dare to do this, I'm afraid that the angry fans will turn the training base upside down before the show is over.
It was to the point where they could sneak into the base, secretly kidnap Xie Qingyu, and then blow up the base (especially the building where the director team responsible for program decision-making was located) with a "bang".
This statement may be an exaggeration, but its combat effectiveness is no joke.
After all, the popularity the program crew wants is one thing, but getting burned is another.
At this moment, everyone is looking forward to the show, and it depends on whether the production team dares to accept this popular program...
