Chapter 190 Opening Ceremony Live Broadcast
After the performance ended and the lights dimmed, Xie Qingyu and the members had to leave the stage as quickly as possible to make room for NEONEX who was about to take the stage.
After all, the venue is so small and there is only one central point, but compared to performances that require stage design, the progress is still much faster.
As soon as Xie Qingyu and his group reached the entrance, they bumped into the NEONEX group who were already waiting there to go on stage.
The host's voice came from the speakers, and both sides just nodded hurriedly in greeting.
The passage was narrow, and Xie Qingyu was about to pass sideways when Fang Weilan from NEONEX suddenly called him softly.
"Wait a moment."
This soft call made the members of both groups focus their attention on Fang Weilan.
The game is about to begin, is there anything you must say now?
Fang Weilan curved his eyes, handed over a small pack of tissues, and said, "Wipe them all~"
After he finished speaking, his gaze first swept across the red corners of Xie Qingyu's eyes, and then swept across the faces of the other members of MYST7.
Especially Leo, who still had tears in his eyes, handed the tissue forward again.
This sudden kindness made the air at the entrance subtly freeze for a second.
Xie Qingyu was the first to react. He took the tissue and smiled politely, saying, "Thank you. I wish you a successful performance."
After MYST7 completely disappeared at the end of the corridor, NEONEX's main dancer Cui Xin shuddered.
"Brother Fang, what you did just now was... so creepy. It didn't feel like you at all. So weird!"
He rubbed his arms exaggeratedly, "I have goose bumps."
Fang Weilan ignored him. Although there was a faint smile on the corner of his mouth, his eyes were calm. But to be honest, Cui Xin was more used to him like this. The look just now was as if he was possessed by a ghost.
Captain Liao Xian asked cautiously, "Do you... know each other?"
This question is asked in a tactful way, but what it actually means is that you should not flirt with people you don’t know, and be careful in what you say and do!
The other members of the team who were equally curious also looked over.
Although everyone joked about their group being offline, Xie Qingyu still heard about it. They've been so popular lately that it seems like you can find news about them everywhere.
But everyone is unfamiliar with each other, so Liao Xian feels that to be on the safe side, it would be better not to participate in this kind of program with the intention of making friends.
As long as the program can be recorded smoothly and successfully, it’s done!
He can ignore Cui Xin, but he still has to give some face to the steady captain Fang Weilan.
He suddenly chuckled, the tail sound echoing in the corridor: "I like him~"
"hiss--"
The team members took a deep breath and looked around guiltily, brother, what kind of vicious words are these? Who do you like?
You're going to die!
If you want to be caught stepping on a sewing machine, don't pull them up, they didn't hear a thing!!!
Liao Xian was even more focused on the camera that hadn't been scanned yet. He finally breathed a sigh of relief, but when he turned around and saw the cameraman holding up such a large camera with an innocent look on his face, he was almost dead.
Not only that, the eldest brother also took two steps back, as if he was afraid that he would grab the machine.
At this moment, Liao Xian just wanted to smack himself to death from a minute ago. Didn't he already know that this ancestor did whatever he wanted? Why did he still have to ask questions! Why?!
Seeing his teammates panicking, the captain seemed to be able to stay put. Fang Weilan then slowly finished the second half of the sentence:
"His... stage performance, is this not okay?"
God knows how much this sentence redeems Liao Xian and others.
But at this moment they had no time to care about Fang Weilan's bad taste, because the host's introduction was about to end and they had to get into the performance state immediately.
As the Ace of the team, Fang Weilan is responsible for the opening part.
When the camera panned over, he finally dropped all his disguises the moment he raised his eyes, revealing the aggressive edge in his bones. He raised the corners of his lips towards the camera, smiling meaningfully.
Does it matter whether you recognize me or not? We have a long way to go~
On the other side, the MYST7 lounge was bustling with activity.
The makeup artists are racing against time to touch up the members' makeup in preparation for the upcoming theme song performance.
Wei Liangchen took advantage of the opportunity and his gossip spirit began to burn again, but he still took into consideration that he was not in his own territory, so he spoke more tactfully.
He deliberately pinched his throat and asked in a pretentious tone:
"Benefactor~ Who is that kind-hearted brother just now? Why have I never heard you mention him before?"
The words were full of inquiries: Who is that guy? I don't have any impression of him. What is your secret relationship?
"Puff—cough cough!"
You Jinzhao, who was drinking water, was choked by the sudden and unnatural remarks and started coughing.
Fortunately, he reacted quickly, otherwise Leo on the opposite side would not just have his eyes wide open in fear.
Gu Qi immediately stepped forward, grabbed Wei Liangchen's neck with one hand, and warned him in a low voice: "Speak human language."
Now the three makeup teachers' hands are shaking with laughter. They are interrupting their work and are asking him about it!
Wei Liangchen pouted in grievance.
When he spoke bluntly, he was called rash. When he racked his brains to act polite, he was disliked for being pretentious.
This group of teammates is so difficult to serve!
Xie Qingyu shook his head helplessly and chuckled. Out of the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of the cameraman diligently filming VIP footage in the lounge. He knew that any remarks involving the relationship between the two groups must be made with extreme caution.
He said carefully, "The theme song is a collaboration with Part."
This answer avoided explaining the specific relationship while providing irrefutable facts. After all, he himself was not quite sure about the situation.
As for how the audience outside the camera will interpret it, that is not something he needs to worry about.
You can't just say "I and that guy from that group are just complete strangers who have never even said hello to each other", otherwise the fans of both sides will probably start another bloody storm.
Xie Qingyu still cares about his fans. If he can avoid causing trouble, he will try his best not to let them rush into battle for his "internet son" in their busy schedule.
Just that?
Wei Liangchen touched his chin suspiciously, disbelief written all over his face.
Judging from his own experience, he didn't think he would notice whether the members of the rival group were crying on the collaborative stage, let alone take the initiative to hand them tissues.
Could it be...
That Fang what's that guy also wants to be friends with my benefactor?!
This thought instantly made Wei Liangchen's alarm bells ring.
The competition within the team is already fierce enough, and we must not allow "foreign forces" to interfere!
As Xie Qingyu's number one guard (self-proclaimed), Wei Liangchen was the first one to disagree!
Xie Qingyu, who still had no idea what strange things Wei Liangchen had imagined, took out his cell phone and looked at the unread messages.
The more important one is Hu Xuan's. She will come in person tonight to discuss the arrangements for watching the Velléa luxury fashion show with him.
The show in Beijing is scheduled for 19:00 on September 23, which saves people from having to travel long distances.
Hu Xuan specifically confirmed: [The day after tomorrow, there will only be one high jump preliminary event in the morning?]
After receiving a positive answer, he just replied "keep in touch" and then there was no more movement, obviously he was busy.
Xie Qingyu followed the makeup teacher's instructions and closed her eyes to let him touch up her eye makeup, while her thoughts were still turning.
After Hu Xuan comes to meet him tonight, she will probably follow him until the end of the "TOP IDOL" schedule.
As mentioned before, he has several personal business schedules that need to be completed during the program, so the "normal" schedule should be to record the program during the day and catch up on business at night.
There is no way around it, this is a balance that has to be struck. If these business matters are not completed during the program, the pressure of the subsequent new schedules will be even more terrifying.
In particular, the Lake City show of another high-end luxury brand Ruenne was scheduled for 2:00 p.m. in the daytime, so he had to fly there the night before and return immediately after watching the show.
Fortunately, there were no competitions that day, so at least it wouldn’t affect the recording of the program.
At this moment, You Jinzhao suddenly said, "By the way, everyone, I might have to leave first after the opening ceremony."
He gestured to indicate that he had a personal schedule to catch.
Seeing his teammates nod in understanding, he added with a smile, "I only have one suitcase in the dormitory. Could someone please help me take it to the car?"
Today is the day to move to the new dormitory, so he can only go directly to the new dormitory early tomorrow morning to meet up with the members for recording.
In fact, You Jinzhao mentioned this trip before going to bed last night, but at that time he was not sure whether it could be realized.
Now it seems that the trip is set in stone.
Small things like helping to move a box are no problem.
After all, it's not just Xie Qingyu. During the recording of the program, all members have to squeeze in personal announcements whenever they can.
If you are lucky, you can still make it back to the dormitory and have a good sleep. If you really can't make it in time, you can only get up early the next day like You Jinzhao.
This kind of schedule rhythm will probably become the norm before the new album is released. As for whether it can continue to stay this busy in the future, it depends on the performance of the first album.
"Teachers, how are the preparations going here? It's time to go to the waiting area." The staff knocked on the door gently to remind them.
As the opening performance group, they can enjoy the privilege of returning to the lounge to adjust themselves, but the groups that perform later probably don't even have such time.
Ten groups, ten pieces of music, the performances were fleeting.
Gu Yan replied, "I'll be right there," and walked out with the members who had finished putting on makeup.
Xie Qingyu quickly replied to the last message and handed the phone to his accompanying assistant.
He thought his teammates had already left, but when he looked up, he found that everyone was waiting for him at the door tacitly.
When his eyes accidentally met Bai Lang, Xie Qingyu suddenly realized that he seemed to have not communicated much with this taciturn teammate in the past two days, and now he looked a little worried.
The other person is a man of few words, and if he doesn't speak first, the silence between the two will be particularly obvious.
"Let's go, don't keep the staff waiting anxiously." Xie Qingyu said with a smile as he walked among his teammates.
When he passed by Bai Tang, he stopped and patted his arm gently. He blinked and lowered his voice: "Want to go together?"
This sudden little action made Bai Lang visibly stunned, but soon, a faint smile appeared in those always calm eyes.
The theme song performance requires all groups to complete it together. The program team cleverly adopted the method of group entry to make rational use of each channel.
When Xie Qingyu and his group followed the staff to the new waiting area, members of the girl group LUMAé were already waiting there. They seemed to have just finished their individual performances and were busy with their final touches of makeup.
Both parties nodded politely and showed no interest in talking further.
Xie Qingyu glanced at the cameramen who were following closely on both sides. She didn't know whether the program crew did it on purpose or not to pair up the male and female groups who would perform the theme song, or even divide them according to the Parts?
This familiar operation and familiar formula are indeed Grape TV's usual style, and its intention to create topics is obvious.
Unfortunately, since they were not familiar with each other and had to focus on preparing for the performance, the probability of the lively scene that the program team expected to occur was basically zero.
It’s good enough if you don’t think about it in your mind and don’t get involved!
While waiting, Xie Qingyu's attention was attracted by the Eclipse performance on the stage.
As a big senior group that has released many albums, they are not like them, who only have one pitiful debut song to perform.
At this moment, the five of them are performing the title song of their new album, "Enlightenment", a masterpiece that combines new Chinese style. Even from Xie Qingyu's discerning eyes, the arrangement and performance are top-notch.
The audience's reaction also confirmed this.
Amidst the constant cheers, Eclipse's effortless stage performance was fully displayed.
Before the last note faded away, the entire stadium suddenly went dark.
In an instant, the giant circular screen on the dome exploded into countless fragments of light, which reorganized into the shocking three-dimensional words "TOP IDOL" in the void.
This sudden visual impact made the scene boil instantly, without the need for a host to transition.
Everyone, including the audience and fans watching the online live broadcast, knows that the most anticipated joint theme song performance of each group is about to begin!
