Preparation for the first performance 2
He Ting: "If we don't go now, all the good teammates will be snatched away by others."
"Select people?" Shen Xiu looked at the host dimly, with a sadness in his eyes that only he could understand.
Oh, naive.
Can this person join his team just because he wants?
To put it nicely, the captain in the C position chooses his teammates and has the right to choose. To put it bluntly, if you choose someone else, they have to be willing to be your teammate.
Only by running in both directions can the best stage effect be achieved. Otherwise, people who are incompatible will only annoy each other if they are in the same team.
How can a group that is not harmonious internally be harmonious on stage?
Although he was crazy emo in his heart, Shen Xiu said: "Well, I choose."
He chooses now!
After saying this, Shen Xiu shifted his gaze from He Ting to the trainees.
Thinking of Shen Xiu's cold gaze just now, He Ting's heart shuddered, and he wondered if there was something wrong with what he said?
Moreover, when the captain of a C-position team chooses someone, he stands on top and never goes down to grab the person! Didn’t you see that the other C positions have almost finished selecting the people from classes BCD?
After being a host for so many years, this was the first time He Ting had seen Shen Xiu in this situation.
His suggestion is:
It’s better for you to drink more hot water and mind your own business.
As a center position that no one cares about, Chen Xiu looked at the trainees who were ignored by everyone...
Huh? Qin Hua didn’t look at himself?
Didn’t he ask me to teach dancing last time? He was also there when I was teaching other trainees, and he never talked to me alone again.
Well, not bad, not bad, there is progress.
Choose him!
Qin Hua had just glanced at Shen Xiu with furtive longing when he was caught by Shen Xiu.
"!" The boss's insight is indeed terrifying!
The next second, Qin Hua saw Shen Xiu walking towards him step by step, and his heart was beating so fast that it almost jumped out of his chest.
This, this, this...is this what he meant?
Shen Xiu selected his target and walked towards Qin Hua from Class D with firm steps.
[Ahhh, Boss Xiu finally moved! 】
[Who understands? I watched helplessly as almost all the people in BC class were selected, but Master Xiu still didn't make any move. I was so anxious! 】
[Who, who, who will be the first lucky team of Xiu Boss’s group...what? ? ? Why did Brother Xiu go to Class D? ! 】
Standing in front of Qin Hua, Shen Xiu spoke, a slightly hoarse voice escaping from his thin lips.
"you....."
Oh no, it was the first time I invited someone and I was too nervous about being rejected, so my voice broke and became a little hoarse when I first asked. Shen Xiu paused.
I hope the other party doesn't mind my little mistake, Shen Xiu sighed and was about to continue speaking. Before Shen Xiu had time to choose his words again, he heard Qin Hua's excited voice.
"I do!!!"
Shen Xiu: “!”
As expected of the person he chose, she has great taste!
Shen Xiu said sincerely: "Thank you."
Being the one chosen by Shen Xiu, Qin Hua was so excited that he stuttered: "No, you're welcome." It was his honor!
Chen Xiu: Quite polite.
[Who could have imagined, sisters, that the first person that Xiu would choose would be someone from Class D? 】
I don’t understand. I’m shocked. 】
[Well, sisters, don’t forget, our boss Xiu also has another title, Demon King Xiu! For a big devil at the boss level, it doesn’t matter who he chooses, it’s the same no matter who he chooses. 】
[Fuck, I understand now. My 'learning' is too superficial. 】
In order to avoid the awkward conversation, Shen Xiu subconsciously looked away and saw Ke Zian with blushing cheeks beside Qin Hua.
Ke Zian... doesn't talk much.
The important thing is that he is obedient and his voice is very special. The key point is that when I saw him again later, he never came up to me and brought up things that embarrassed me.
Choose him!
Chen Xiu turned to Ke Zian: "You..."
Ke Zian stammered: "I, I am willing to do that too, thank you, thank you Chen Xiu, I have practiced what you taught me well, and the effect is very good, thank you very much! I will definitely work hard and not hold back!"
Ke Zian, who was chosen, didn't expect that the pie in the sky would fall on his head. He was so excited that he said in one breath the words of thanks that he had secretly thought of in his heart.
Shen Xiu: “…”
I didn’t have to say much to the people I chose. They agreed without me saying no. They are really a group of nice people!
When Shen Xiu's eyes fell on Class A, he saw Xiang Yueting refusing Song Chengwang and waving at him.
"Chen Xiu, I've been waiting for you for a long time. The look you gave me just now made me understand everything. Look, here I come!"
Chen Xiu: Touched!
Xiang Yueting is the one I am most familiar with and he is also a great dancer.
Number of assassinations -1!
Lu Qian mustered up his courage, grabbed Jiang Yuheng's hand and shamelessly moved closer to Chen Xiu, his expression nervous and sincere: "Chen Xiu, Jiang Yuheng and I really want to perform on the same stage with you, can we both join your team?"
Lu Qian and Jiang Yuheng, the two of them like to talk together and never talk to themselves.
I like friends like this who have a sense of boundaries. Lu Qianren is also very active and eager to learn.
Shen Xiu: “Okay.”
This kind of good thing must come more!
Seeing that more and more people were gathering around Shen Xiu, Xia Wenhao could not help but reject Song Chengwang's invitation and rushed from Class B to the marked seating area of Class D in front of Shen Xiu.
Express your thoughts directly: "I also want to join your team, just tell me if it's okay. It's okay if you want to reject me, it doesn't matter, I don't care."
Shen Xiu tilted his head and looked at Xia Wenhao, and immediately the labels of studious, hardworking and motivated flashed through his mind.
Very good, Xia Wenhao can come, Shen Xiu is very surprised.
Facing Shen Xiu's cold and indifferent gaze, Xia Wenhao said that he didn't care, but his heart couldn't help but rise to his throat.
After all, I am not likable, and I once challenged Shen Xiu without knowing my own limitations. It is normal for Shen Xiu to hold a grudge against me, and it is okay to be rejected...
Shen Xiu: “…Okay.”
Xia Wenhao: “!”
As expected of him as his target and opponent, he does not bear grudges and has courage!
Xia Wenhao said firmly: "I will work hard and will never let you regret choosing me!"
To this, Shen Xiu awkwardly replied: “Thank you.”
Forgive him, I can't think of another short sentence to respond except thank you.
This is more difficult than asking him to write a 3,000-word film analysis and review!
Xia Wenhao: “…You’re welcome.”
Chen Xiu's answer was very perfunctory. Well, Chen Xiu himself was so strong and he must have full control over his team. In Shen Xiu's eyes, his efforts might not be worth mentioning.
Seven, the eighth...
"Chen Xiu, can you add me?"
Who wouldn’t want to be closer to Chen Xiu, the king of the C position? Not only can it improve oneself, but it is also very likely to get more shots.
With Chen Xiu around, he has a feeling that the first performance of the MV straight shot will be a hit.
Zhou Tong stepped forward and tried to promote himself: "I will work hard to learn singing and dancing. I am much better now than before. Although there was a small accident during the AI evaluation, I recovered quickly and was promoted to Class C. I can also do makeup and styling. If you don't mind, I can take care of the stage makeup and styling. I will never hide anything and ensure that everyone's makeup and styling are harmonious and consistent."
"!" In response, Shen Xiu shouted in his heart: Good people, a group of good people, all of them are a group of good people!
Is this God’s compensation for his bad luck in AI evaluation? That’s great!
Shen Xiu: "Welcome!"
Myself, plus Qin Hua, Ke Zian, Xiang Yueting, Lu Qianjiang, Yu Heng, Xia Wenhao, and Zhou Tong.
There are eight in total, enough...
No, the host said that there will be four extra people, and there must be 9 people in four groups to ensure that no trainees will be eliminated.
Shen Xiu looked at the seven teammates who were surrounding him but not too close to him.
Although according to the program rules, as the team's big C and captain, he has the right to decide anything within the team, but Shen Xiu still wants to ask everyone's opinions.
"I want one more player to come in, you guys..."
As soon as Shen Xiu said it, everyone had guessed it before he finished speaking.
Xiang Yueting: "It's really too cruel to be eliminated before having a real performance. I agree with your idea."
"I also!"
"Same."
"Choose."
The seven people agreed unanimously, and Shen Xiu felt more and more moved.
Look, what lovely teammates he met!
According to the current selection method, anyone can see that there is a high probability that four people will be left in Class F. Shen Xiu simply did not look at other classes and directly set his sights on Class F.
There are only eight people in F, and no one has been selected yet.
Shen Xiu took one look at the beautiful and eye-catching pink and white hair.
It’s Lin Jiashi.
Whether it was his hair color or his makeup, Lin Jiashi was the most outstanding person in the entire F class, even more eye-catching than the trainees in other classes. Even if it wasn't for Shen Xiu, others would notice him the first time they looked at the F class.
Chen Xiu initially remembered Lin Jiashi by his hair, but later his impression of Lin Jiashi remained on Ke Zian.
The impression changed from 'beautiful pink and white hair' to 'someone who was with Ke Zian'.
[Boss Xiu is looking at Lin Jiashi. Could it be that he wants to teach Lin Jiashi a lesson? I don't think so. Every time I ran around the live broadcast rooms of various practice rooms, I saw that Lin Jiashi's dancing was not very good. I really don't think that someone who dances with no changes every day will be easy to teach. 】
[Don't be confused. I want to see you lead the whole team to go crazy on the first performance stage. 】
[I can’t imagine being on stage with Lin Jia Shi. What if he gets unhappy and smashes the microphone on the spot? To be on the safe side, let's pass him. 】
[What did he do wrong? He's just a little stupid. Don't be too harsh on him. But he has a delicate and good-looking appearance, like a doll. His looks are pleasing to the eye and can catch the camera even when he's not busy, right? So he's not completely useless. 】
[I don’t care whether she is beautiful or not, I just don’t want anything to go wrong in Xiu Da Lao’s first performance. 】
"Chen Xiu is looking at Lin Jiashi."
"Sure enough, good relationships are not the same... No, doesn't Chen Xiu's team already have eight people? Chen Xiu wants... nine people!"
“Although it’s impossible to choose me, Shen Xiu is willing to choose one more person to be one of the four nine-man teams. I admire it.”
"Let's just worry about ourselves. Alas, the worst person among us should be Ying Ziang. His presence is too weak."
"That's right. Lin Jiashi is good-looking, not bad either, and very friendly. He's better than all of us, but Ying Ziang is a nice guy. He speaks softly and does things quietly. I've never heard him make any noise in the dormitory. I like roommates like him."
Hearing the whispers of two people in the seats behind him and feeling the gazes on him, Lin Jiashi quickly looked up.
Shen Xiu thought about it and found that apart from the change in the label, he had no special impression of Lin Jiashi.
Chen Xiu's eyes passed over Lin Jiashi and fell on Ying Ziang, who was sitting upright on the upper left behind Lin Jiashi, looking expectantly in the direction of the crowd, with no roommates sitting on either side of him.
Lin Jiashi, who had just raised his head to make eye contact with Shen Xiu, met air.
Lin Jiashi: “?”
Noticing that Shen Xiu was looking behind him, with the jib live camera in front of him, Lin Jiashi couldn't help but look back.
Shen Xiu remembered that when he was teaching everyone, Ying Ziang stood at the end of the team, he sang OK, his voice was hoarse, but he danced like a disaster.
But even though his movements looked funny to others, Ying Ziang was able to complete each movement seriously with a red face and firm belief due to his love for dance.
More importantly...Chen Xiu is very familiar with this envious look!
He was like this too, and he envied those who could quickly get along with others, and felt genuinely happy for that lively and happy atmosphere.
But when it’s really my turn, I still prefer to be alone.
Ying Ziang is good. No matter from the perspective of learning attitude or personal character, he is suitable to be his teammate at first glance!
Shen Xiu walked towards Class F and went straight to Ying Ziang.
Ying Ziang heard the sounds of people around him gasping for air, but he didn't take it seriously. He was a twisted, crawling little mushroom hiding in a dark corner. He couldn't talk and had poor abilities, so no one would notice him.
Those voices definitely had nothing to do with him.
Ying Ziang continued to watch the lively scene in the Class B area. He saw two big guys from Class A battling over a trainee from Class B, and he felt envious.
Soon, Ying Ziang realized that something was wrong.
First, the trainees in the busiest Class B logo area looked at him one by one, with expressions of surprise and confusion.
Then, Ying Ziang felt that the surroundings had become strangely quiet, and the sound of talking had stopped.
Finally, a shadow fell over him.
"Chen Xiu has gone to Class F. What is this operation?"
“I don’t understand, but I’m shocked.”
"Besides being shocked, I also admire him. I can only say that you can't guess the thinking process of a strong person. It's impossible to guess it at all!"
What happened to the sisters? Aren't people selected based on their good academic performance? Why is it that in Boss Xiu's team, there is only one person from Class B, Xiang Yueting, and one from Class C? Now they are directly skipping classes and selecting people from Class F! 】
[Don’t ask, the truth is the boss’s heart is like a needle in the sea.] 】
[You can’t do this, you don’t understand this? Boss Xiu is so strong, so it doesn’t matter which class of trainees he chooses, right? Anyway, the boss can lead the team alone. 】
[Game sister, I, as a jungler, have to work hard to carry five people at one time, and Brother Xiu wants to carry seven people at one time (by the way, Xiang Yueting does not need to carry), I, the king of the jungle, am in awe of you. 】
[Sister, I am different. I am not the jungle king. I am the northwest killing king. Are we duo-queuing? Let’s learn from the big guy and show off to the enemy. 】
F area.
Wait, what happened? !
Ying Ziang realized it later, and turned his head back with a stiff neck, trembling and looking up, he met Shen Xiu's cold expression: "!"
Demon King Xiu’s expression is so, so scary!
"Shen, Shen..."
Hearing the familiar stuttering voice, Shen Xiu felt more and more sympathetic. Look, isn't this the same person he was before his parents died in a car accident!
Before Ying Ziang finished speaking, as a Shen Xiu who felt that he had evolved, he spoke caringly as if taking care of his juniors: "Would you like to join us?"
The man had a grim face, stern eyes, and his tone of voice was also cold, without any emotional ups and downs, like a mechanical electronic sound.
But the words he said made Ying Ziang feel so warm that he felt like he was dreaming?
Is this a dream!
must......
Although the people in Class F were shocked that Chen Xiu did not choose Lin Jiashi but Ying Ziang, they were genuinely happy for him because Ying Ziang was a good roommate in the dormitory and often took out the trash and tidied up things.
"Hurry up and agree to it, this is Shen Xiu!"
"Opportunity is fleeting, hurry up!"
Hearing his roommate's excited voice and the force of his gentle pat on the shoulder, Ying Ziang stood up and stood in front of Shen Xiu, very reserved. When he met Shen Xiu's cold gaze, he was finally sure that he was not dreaming.
Someone really chose him, and the person who chose him was the default top 1 among their hundred trainees!
"I, I, I, I join in!"
Shen Xiu didn't understand. He just came here to find a teammate, so why were so many eyes on him?
Shen Xiu was no less nervous than Ying Ziang, and said stiffly: "Let's go."
Hearing Shen Xiu's cold voice, Ying Ziang nodded quickly: "Okay!"
After reading Shen Xiulian's selection criteria one after another, the system could no longer bear it: [...If you don't dare to choose Sheniu, just say so! You put in so much psychological preparation that I almost believed it! 】
Chen Xiu: [System, you are being superficial. My choice of them, how can it not be considered a two-way journey in another sense! Not only do we run in both directions, we also heal each other! 】
System: [I would like to call them a group of cowards, or a group of emo monsters. 】
Chen Xiu: Tsk, the system is superficial!
Until Chen Xiu brought Ying Ziang away from Area F, Chen Xiu's eyes never fell on Lin Jiashi again.
Lin Jiashi was puzzled. They clearly looked at him, so why did they choose someone else in the end?
Was it...deliberately to embarrass him?
[I realized later that who said to choose Lin Jiashi? It seemed that Boss Xiu just glanced at Lin Jiashi and his eyes stopped on Ying Ziang. 】
[Ying Ziang?] Is this person on this show? ! Damn, I just discovered this today! 】
[Yes, but his presence is really weak. If it weren't for the fact that during the last one-on-many teaching by Brother Xiu, Ying Ziang danced like his four limbs were separated and each of them was dancing on its own, and he still finished the dance stubbornly with a red face, I wouldn't have known about this person. 】
Although the other C-position captains were shocked by Chen Xiu's selection behavior, they thought that Chen Xiu was different from them. The strong always like challenges. He probably felt that it was not difficult to lead people with higher levels, so he simply chose people with lower evaluation levels.
In addition, there are only twelve teams in total, and eight of them are destined to have people from Class F.
Overall, Shen Xiu's behavior is reasonable.
As if they noticed that Lin Jiashi was in a bad mood, the people in Class F stopped talking.
Chen Xiu brought Ying Ziang back to where he had been standing before, and as he walked toward the stage, Chen Xiu felt the host looking at him.
Could it be that I didn't report it so I was seen?
Thinking of this, Shen Xiu took the initiative to say to He Ting: “I’ve chosen it.”
He Ting: "...Well, congratulations."
He knew it. He had never seen a C-position captain choose players so hastily and carelessly!
It can be done in no time. Don’t you want to go to BC class and try your best?
He Ting sighed.
Okay, it seems that if he asked Chen Xiu to snatch teammates, it would be fine for others, but for Chen Xiu, it would be too superfluous.
Mr. Shen Xiu is not picky in selecting people and is very fast.
He saw it clearly from above. Shen Xiu did not reject any of the people who asked to join. Those who Shen Xiu chose on his own initiative were not of high level.
The main point is to do whatever one wants, and not forget to bring along the people in Class F who may face elimination.
He Ting admired the confidence and softness in his heart beneath the cold appearance.
We are all dream chasers. The rules of the program team are not only cruel, but also make the trainees feel very frustrated and empathetic as they are eliminated without having to compete on the same stage and truly show their abilities to the audience.
Moreover, according to the rules of the program team, after the first performance, there will be a ranking elimination process, and only 72 people will remain.
Regardless of whether the four people who were not chosen are eliminated now, only the originally stipulated 72 trainees will remain on the field after the first performance.
Although keeping the four of them means that the four teams will get fewer parts individually, they are willing to compete.
After all, only those who are truly capable and work hard are worthy of staying on this stage.
They believe in themselves.
So, after half an hour of selecting people, the four extra people who were supposed to be there were finally absorbed into the group.
No one is in danger of being eliminated.
[I was so scared. I thought someone was going to be eliminated. 】
[Fortunately, everyone stayed. Even if they have to be eliminated, they hope to go through the normal elimination process, rather than being eliminated because no one chose them. 】
[Although the production crew is not very humane, the trainees are. We are satisfied! I also hope that the trainees can be ruthless when fighting on the stage! 】
He Ting picked up the microphone and said, "Not bad, not bad. Everyone is very good."
“Then let’s move directly to the next process.”
The staff member next to He Ting was holding a black box, and He Ting introduced it to the trainees.
"The 12 songs in the box use the depth of the card color to divide the difficulty of the song. The difficulty of the song ranges from simple to difficult, and the color corresponds to a gradual transition from light to dark."
Xiang Yueting spoke actively: "I understand. Pure white is the easiest, and pure black is the hardest."
He Ting smiled and nodded: "That's right."
"Now, please have one person from each of the twelve groups come up and draw one of the tickets. The song you draw will be the song for your first performance in five days."
The rest of the groups go up to the C position to draw.
When it came to Chen Xiu's group, Chen Xiu said, "You draw."
It's not that he is modest, but he is afraid that he has bad luck. His luck has been used up when he chose his teammates just now.
According to the law of conservation of luck, he is very likely to have bad luck next.
The eight team members agreed.
"No, no, no, you cough, cough, you smoke!"
"You're the captain, you smoke."
"You are the center, you draw."
"It doesn't matter to us. We can win whatever we get."
It was too difficult for Shen Xiu to push and pull back and forth. He looked at the team members he had chosen, but they all turned their eyes away and didn't look at him.
Shen Xiu: “?”
Team members: The cold look from Chen Xiu is too oppressive. Don’t force them to go ahead. What if they get the hardest one and Chen Xiu regrets letting them join the team?
Noticing the gazes from the host and other groups: “…Okay.”
He smokes.
What is the law of conservation of luck? Fake, all fake, he is a staunch materialist!
Shen Xiu walked forward, reached into the black box, and fumbled around inside for a few seconds.
Take a deep breath and pray: Please don’t draw the hardest black, please!
After praying, Shen Xiu picked up a card and took it out of the box.
Pure black color, the most difficult song.
Shen Xiu was sluggish.
The law of conservation of luck never deceives him!
Song Chengwang was the first to laugh: "Hahaha, the hardest part is with him, let's not be nervous, hahaha..."
Jiang Yanxi: "Well, stop laughing. Do you think Chen Xiu cares about whether it's difficult or not?"
Song Chengwang saw Shen Xiu's indifferent expression when he looked at the card, and gritted his teeth: "Then why did you ask me not to laugh?"
Shang Yu: "Forget it, Xiang Yueting and Shen Xiu are in the same team, Jiang Yanxi is afraid that you will be beaten by Xiang Yueting."
"Haha, what a fool. Am I afraid of him?"
Shang Yu: "Yeah, you two are the same."
[Xiang Yueting: Why does this sound a bit weird? 】
[Shang Yu, stop talking. You’ve taken all the bamboo shoots from the giant panda’s mouth. Hahaha]
[If you continue talking, it will become a mixed doubles match between Song Chengwang and Xiang Yueting against you! 】
Under tremendous pressure, Shen Xiu numbly held the pure black card, not even bothering to see what song was on the back of the card, and walked in front of his group.
Meeting the gazes of the team members, Shen Xiu was so ashamed that he didn't know what to say.
Xiang Yueting: "It's okay, it's all the same." Looking at Shen Xiu's calm expression, this must not be difficult.
Others also said so.
"That's right. It's okay."
"It looks like a piece of cake."
"There's nothing to be afraid of."
Chen Xiu didn't care at all and didn't even look at Qu's name, which was enough to show how confident he was. As someone chosen by Boss Xiu, they must not embarrass Chen Xiu!
[Members of Team Chen Xiu...you are drifting. 】
[Is this the confidence that comes from having a big boss in charge? I feel it. 】
[The more difficult the song, the easier it is to make mistakes on stage, but if you perform well, it will be a great stage. Xiu must have thought of this, so he was not sad or flustered when he drew the song, just calm. I think Xiu must be happy in his heart that he has good luck and drew what may be the best and most explosive stage song! 】
[That must be the case!] 】
After the songs were drawn, He Ting said: "Next is free time. Everyone can find a practice room to get familiar with each other, or get familiar with the songs drawn by the group. The C position of each group, that is, the captain, follow me."
There is a C-position interview to be done before the first performance.
Twenty minutes later, Shen Xiu finished his individual interview and left the interview room.
As the last person to be interviewed, Shen Xiu was the only one in the corridor.
This was a corridor, not a dormitory, and no one was resting here. Chen Xiu wasn't afraid of disturbing others, so he didn't deliberately lighten his footsteps and walked at a normal pace.
When Chen Xiu turned the corner, Lin Jiashi, who was hiding in the corner, suddenly stood out, staring at Chen Xiu with red eyes.
"!" Seeing Lin Jiashi suddenly rushing out, Shen Xiu braked in time and his heart almost stopped out of fright.
Since coming to this show, Shen Xiu felt that his heart had endured too much for him. He frowned slightly and looked at the person in front of him: "What's the matter?"
Facing Chen Xiu's cold gaze and frowning expression, Lin Jiashi gritted his teeth and said, "Chen Xiu, can I ask you something? We are both in Class F, and our abilities are similar, so why did it end up being Ying Ziang instead of me?"
Good night, babies! See you tomorrow!
