Chapter 54 Second Public Selection 2.0
Seeing that the atmosphere in the field was no longer so strange and depressing, Qu Qinghuan began to continue with the process.
"Now, let me introduce the rules of the second performance to everyone."
“This performance is a position assessment. Everyone needs to choose one of the four groups: vocal, rap, dance, and composition based on their own positioning.
Each group prepared three performance pieces.
The song selection phase will begin after the songs are announced, and songs will be selected in the order of the first overall ranking.
The number of performers per team is fixed at 5. Once the number of performers for a piece of music is full, it will not be available for selection.
"After the song selection is completed, the four mentors will form different teams from the four groups with different positioning, follow the training progress of each team and provide corresponding guidance. Finally, there will be a full-scale competition between the teams at the performance site.
Of course, the bonus will also be increased accordingly."
At this point, Qu Qinghuan deliberately paused for a moment to give the contestants some time to digest the information, and then continued: "The contestant who ranks first in the on-site voting in each evaluation group will each receive a bonus of 60,000 votes.
Among the four evaluation groups, the team that ranks first in the on-site voting will receive a bonus of 45,000 votes for each member.
Among all 60 contestants, the person who ranks first in the on-site voting will receive an additional 80,000 votes.
It should be noted that, like the first performance, bonus tickets can be accumulated.
If a player not only helps his team win first place in the group but also wins first place in the overall vote, he will personally receive a cumulative bonus of 185,000 votes.
I hope everyone will go all out and achieve great results!"
After Qu Qinghuan announced the performance format and bonus rules for the second performance, the venue was initially silent. It was obvious that everyone was still digesting this information.
But soon, the voices of discussion began to rise one after another.
"What what what!!! Did I hear correctly? How many tickets?"
"No? Is the second bonus so exaggerated?"
"What's the bonus for the first performance?"
"This means the online voting pool has grown. I guess the bonus for the three public performances will be even greater!!!"
“Exciting! So exciting!!!”
"Hey, I have a question! Aren't we five instructors? Why did Teacher Qu say there are only four instructors?"
Xie Qingyu found that most contestants were more interested in the strength of the bonus, and did not pay too much attention to their own positioning and song selection.
The four leading mentors should be vocal mentor Li Zhiqiu, creative mentor Lu Chuan, dance mentor Su Jin and rap mentor MCray.
As for Wei Qianze, Xie Qingyu had also held concert tours before, so they naturally knew how busy the early preparations would be.
While preparing for the show, he also has to lead a group in training. Running between the two, he might be exhausted to death on "Road to Star Dreams".
I ran to the dormitory building this morning to take over the initiator's work. The first reason might be that Qu Qinghuan was not convenient, and the other was probably that I exchanged time with the program crew for the second public performance and shot the materials in advance.
At least such a person must be present when the main program is broadcast, so that Wei Qianze's fans will come to watch the program with their noses pinched, thus achieving the purpose of attracting traffic.
"Brother! Which group will you join? Creative?"
Leo was so happy to hear that the rules were finally no longer random. What he hated most was randomness.
After Qu Qinghuan gave everyone time to discuss, he immediately started to poke his head around and ask which group Xie Qingyu would join.
Anyway, wherever Xie Qingyu goes, Leo will go there, and this time they must be in the same team.
Xie Qingyu was not really sure which group to join.
It is not "Versailles" at all. He has developed comprehensively in all four directions.
Xie Qingyu spent the longest time practicing at the company, learning a wide range of subjects, including vocal techniques, singing, choreography and performance, character development, posture training, etiquette training, language expression, line recitation, artistic cultivation, and creative training...
It can be said that the initial investment made by the company in the other world in the NOVA-X group is an astronomical figure.
Of course, the company did make a lot of money after NOVA-X debuted.
So Xie Qingyu really doesn't have any shortcomings. When he chose the original track for the auditions and the initial stage, he had weighed the pros and cons.
The main reason is that the threshold for creation is relatively high compared to other tracks, and the routes are not likely to overlap.
Given his amateur status at the time and the lack of a company, this was the fastest way to increase his fame, and it was not easy for him to overlap in positioning with players who had companies.
In this circle, there is still a huge difference between having a company and not having a company.
Even if Xie Qingyu had all the skills, it would be impossible for him to train in the base while promoting himself on the Internet and finally coordinate with the program team.
Even if he could, would he just use the few beans in his wallet to contact marketing accounts to help with publicity and promotion?
The marketing accounts will all think that they are humiliated by Xie Qingyu and turn around to publish a negative press release. Who can they turn to for justice?
So, this time when Xie Qingyu suddenly had a choice, he didn't know how to choose.
To be honest, he doesn't have much preference among the four different tracks.
Then we can only... "Let's wait and see after the repertoire is announced!" Xie Qingyu felt that he should first look at the quality of each group's repertoire before making a definite choice.
After all, it all comes down to the quality of the stage performance.
"Huh?" Leo lowered his head in frustration.
Qu Qinghuan originally wanted to give the contestants some more time to discuss on their own.
But his legs went numb as he watched MCray squatting in the waiting area of the stage, grimacing and gesturing at her to hurry up.
Uh... never mind, we are all colleagues, let’s keep each other company today so we can meet again someday.
Qu Qinghuan raised the microphone and coughed twice, signaling everyone to be quiet.
After the contestants calmed down, she said, "Next, let us welcome our vocal instructor, Li Zhiqiu, with the warmest applause..."
Looking at the group of people following Li Zhiqiu, Qu Qinghuan's mouth twitched slightly, but he reacted quickly and changed his words immediately.
"Dance instructor Su Jin... Composition instructor Lu Chuan... Rap instructor MCray make their grand appearance!"
It was finally resolved, and Qu Qinghuan was speechless.
That's not what we said when we were discussing the script! You're teaming up with her and she's the only one left to play with? I'm so angry!
The contestants hadn't seen the mentors for several days since the end of the first public performance, so the atmosphere at the scene was still very warm for the mentors' arrival.
"Teacher Li has such a powerful aura, is he here to crush the stage?!"
"Oh my! MC-sensei is rocking the place today dressed so handsomely!"
"Teacher Su is full of ethereal energy today! She truly is the 'elf on stage'!"
"Teacher Lu's style is truly authentic! Otherwise, they would call him a genius producer!!"
Uh..., even though they know that the contestants are used to being the supporting actors, and even though they have experienced this so many times, the mentors are still not used to this kind of praise.
I'm a bit shy and even have the urge to dig into the castle with my toes.
But then the contestants in the audience saw the outfits of the four mentors, and some of them were really dissatisfied.
"It's not fair! It's not fair!! I won't mention that Teacher Li and Teacher Su have the goddess treatment, but why don't Teacher Lu Chuan and Teacher MCray change into pajamas for the 'One Day Pajamas' theme?"
"That's right! Teacher Wei Qianze who came this morning didn't wear any either. It's not fair, not fair. Come and see~~ The 'Road to Stars' production team treated me differently~~~~"
After hearing the contestant's question, the contestants next to him also reacted.
The other contestants also started to make noises after hearing this. MCray was frightened by their noises and took a small step back.
Although he still maintained a calm expression, the hand next to Lu Chuan was already poking his back wildly, forcing the smart guy to think of a solution.
Lu Chuan raised his eyebrows and said nonchalantly, "I'm just wearing pajamas. It's just too cold at night so I put on more clothes. Is that not okay?"
"Teacher Lu, the excuse you mentioned has already been used by our most dishonest candidate, Xie Qingyu. Don't even think about trying to save him!" A contestant immediately retorted.
"It's too cold to sleep. Wear too much. The most dishonest candidate." Contestant Xie Qingyu coughed dryly.
Facing Lu Chuan's puzzled gaze, he only said three words: "It's useless", and left the rest to him to figure out.
Lu Chuan did understand, but who told him to be thick-skinned?
Anyway, he wears casual clothes and insists on wearing this to sleep. He won’t accept any rebuttal!
Unable to do anything about him, the contestants moved on to another person.
"What about Mr. MC? Your clothes are covered in nails. Do you sleep in them?"
"Ah! So what? I have a lot of dampness, so can't I do a back massage?"
MCray decided to follow Lu Chuan's example, no matter whether his reasons were convincing or not, as long as he was thick-skinned.
Seeing that the contestants were still refusing to give up, the leader Li Zhiqiu spoke up.
"Well, let's do this. Tonight, Xiao Lu and MC will post a photo of themselves sleeping in their pajamas. Ahem, the other mentors will supervise."
Are you sure you don't want to watch the fun?
Lu Chuan and MCray looked straight at Li Zhiqiu with gloomy eyes. They didn't expect you to be such a big sister!!!
Li Zhiqiu pretended not to see it, turned around and winked at Qu Qinghuan who was watching the fun next to him, asking her to cue the process quickly.
Qu Qinghuan stepped forward with a smile, raised the microphone and said, "We all know that what will follow is a free-for-all battle between the four evaluation groups. The stronger the players in the group, the greater the competitive advantage they will have.
Would you four mentors like to set an example for everyone and recruit members for your own groups?"
Of course!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Regarding this, the four of them had already tested and tugged at each other for several rounds, only to find that none of them was a good person, and their desire to win was stronger than the other.
Then we have to compete for good seedlings in advance. Now that we have been divided into groups, we will definitely aim for the first place.
I didn’t expect there would be a segment of recruiting people. Modo Modo, the contestants were immediately excited.
While the other mentors were considering whether they should be reserved to leave a good impression on the contestants, someone acted unsportsmanlike and took the initiative.
Not the big sister Li Zhiqiu!
It's not Lu Chuan who looks so cunning! !
It's not even the outspoken MCray!!!
But it was this dance instructor who usually showed the most gentleness and seemed never to get angry——Su Jin!!!
She only curled her lips and smiled, but when she spoke, her tone was full of hostility: "Hello everyone, I am Su Jin, the leader of the dance evaluation team.
As we all know, the number and proportion of performance stages that go viral are far ahead of other groups.
As for how the live performance compares to other groups, everyone has a scale in their hearts and should know which group to choose! "
After saying that, Su Jin shook his index finger at the other three instructors, indicating that they were all no match!
Everyone is ready to snatch the person. Anyone who follows the rules is a fool. She will definitely take first place in the second public performance!!!
It's exciting. They start to pull each other down right away.
Seeing this scene, not only did the other three mentors not expect that the real identity of 'Little White Flower' Su Jin was actually 'Black Heart Lotus', the contestants were all shocked by the sudden change.
Xie Qingyu smiled, but was not too surprised. After all, it was not without signs. There were usually clues to follow. Anyone who believed that Teacher Su was really a "little white flower" was a fool!
