Premiere 4
Time goes back to one hour ago.
When the fourth group went on stage, Shen Xiu and the staff member who came to call him quietly left the room where the trainees were staying for a break.
God knows, Shen Xiu is most afraid of being called out alone.
Whether he was called by a teacher at school or by a staff member now, he would involuntarily tense up, lowering his eyes to the point of staring at his toes, and his words were stiff and unnatural: "What's the matter?"
Liang Yu, the staff member responsible for notifying Chen Xiu, looked at the man in front of him who still exuded coldness from the bones after changing his vampire look and returning to black hair. Especially when he heard his cold voice, he couldn't help but get nervous.
He answered quietly, "The assistant director wants to see you. Please follow me."
Shen Xiu: “Yeah.”
Chen Xiu followed the staff member, and the two walked in the corridor one after the other. The atmosphere was so awkward that Chen Xiu wanted to hold the ground.
He wanted to say something, but he was not good at chatting and was afraid that saying something wrong would only make the atmosphere more awkward, so he simply shut up and followed the staff obediently.
The cool air behind him was more effective than air conditioning. Liang Yu could not help but quicken his pace, worthy of being called a walking iceberg.
Forgive her. Although she secretly picked Shen Xiu, she only dared to go crazy online. In reality, she couldn't help but feel nervous when facing the iceberg devil Xiu with a strong aura.
"Assistant Director, Shen Xiu is here." Liang Yu knocked a few times before pushing the door open and reporting inside.
"Yes." The assistant director smiled and said to Shen Xiu: "Congratulations, Shen Xiu, for winning the 'King of Popularity' in the first performance. The reward is that in the first performance, you will have one more stage to show yourself than other trainees. After the sixth group is over, you will go on stage."
Having one more stage than others in the first performance is a great thing for every trainee, and it is an opportunity to better show themselves in front of the audience.
Assistant Director: "Now, think carefully about the songs you are going to sing later."
When the program team first set up the 'Popularity King' award for each episode, they never thought that there would be a multi-faceted warrior like Chen Xiu who would directly win both the initial evaluation and initial stage 'Popularity King' awards.
The assistant director was very confused. He felt that if he didn't do something, as long as Chen Xiu was there, the rest of the trainees would have no chance of becoming the 'King of Popularity' until the end of the talent show.
Chen Xiu was afraid of crowds and nervous about the stage, but at this moment, he thought of the countless light signs that were lit for him in the sea of people, and his heart was surging. Compared with those who liked and supported him, the fear and discomfort in his heart became insignificant.
Chen Xiu wanted to express his love for him from the bottom of his heart. Thinking that the audience liked his singing and dancing on the stage, Chen Xiu decided to cherish this opportunity.
Shen Xiu looked at the assistant director: "Director, please tell me, are there any songs for the fans?"
The assistant director didn't understand this at all. He looked at Liang Yu standing beside him and said, "Xiao Yu, you are a fan, don't you know that?"
Liang Yu seemed to have guessed something, and tried to suppress her inner excitement, and said the name of a song: "'Stars', this song is sung by the idol to the fans."
Stars...Chen Xiu searched his mind for the songs he had listened to during the time he was practicing, but this one was not on the list.
"Thank you, I see. I have to go to the practice room. Could you please call me there later?"
Liang Yu nodded with sparkling eyes: "No problem!"
Ahhh, is Brother Xiu going to sing this for their fans? So excited, but unfortunately she is at work right now and can’t share it yet!
Assistant Director: "By the way, I have one more thing I want to ask you about..."
After talking to the assistant director, Shen Xiu didn't dare to delay any longer and quickly went to the practice room to practice.
[Huh?] ! Boss Xiu, why is he here! 】
[Ahhh, he went into the practice room. When will the damn production crew open the live broadcast rooms in each group room? I can't even see what Boss Xiu is doing in there, I'm so anxious! 】
Occasionally, viewers who were wandering around in the various live broadcast rooms accidentally discovered Shen Xiu's figure, and soon saw Shen Xiu enter the practice room and express his dissatisfaction in the live broadcast room in the corridor.
After an hour of practice, Shen Xiu now stood on the stage.
Not only the trainees in the backstage room were surprised, but the audience was also shocked.
[Ah, what's going on?] Didn’t Xiu Xiu’s performance end a long time ago? 】
[Is this a surprise?] I like hehe! 】
Backstage.
After the trainees were surprised, some expressed their dissatisfaction directly, while others were sarcastic and profound.
Shen Xiu’s ability is stronger than theirs, and now he has more stages than them, which makes everyone feel uncomfortable.
"Why should Shen Xiu get an extra solo stage? This is not fair."
"GG's solo performance last time was definitely a shady deal. We can't give Shen Xiu a backdoor just because he has a strong background."
"That's right. At the beginning, the program didn't allow us trainees to talk about our companies with each other, and didn't display the company names on the show. They said it was for fairness. But it seems that this fairness is only aimed at people like us who have no power. Look at Chen Xiu, he is different because he has a background."
“Hey, stop talking. Don’t you see how fiercely the leg hairs here are looking at you, and how they can’t wait to punish you for Chen Xiu?”
"Heh." Shang Yu chuckled.
When talking about background in this show, who can be better than him? The program crew is really shady, and he is the one behind it.
Thinking of Shi Buwen's temper, Shang Yu looked at the trainee who said the program was shady: "It's unclear whether it was shady or a reward from the program team. You said it so confidently, so you must be an internal staff of the program team. I'm sorry."
Song Chengwang raised his hand and waved, saying sarcastically, "You are so jealous. You must have drunk a lot of vinegar. GG was clearly the reward for the popularity king last time. It's been so long and you are still jealous. You have a good memory. How can you still make mistakes when remembering the lyrics?"
"Ah, I understand. You really care about Chen Xiu, more than the lyrics. I'm crying."
Xia Wenhao snorted coldly: "The live broadcast room is open, and the audience can see your faces."
After hearing this, the dissatisfied trainees remembered that they were so angry that they forgot that there was a live broadcast room in the background. They looked embarrassed and did not speak again.
The atmosphere backstage was quiet and depressing.
[This combat power is not at the same level at all.] 】
[After all, he has no ability and is jealous. This is untenable. 】
[I don't believe this is a shady deal, it must be some kind of reward. 】
[Sure enough, the vision of the powerful bosses is different.] 】
On the stage, Shen Xiu had already opened his voice, and his gentle voice, as soft as the moonlight, filled the entire venue.
"...its light tears through the darkness...stars, bring infinite courage and hope..."
This is a pure lyrical song, without any extra dance moves, and the tone is melodious, like a warm stream slowly flowing into the heart...
[I heard it right, "Stars"!] ! ! Ahhh, I said that we and Boss Xiu are heading in two directions! Woohoo, what’s wrong with my eye sockets? They’re a little hot and I’m sweating. Woohoo.]
[The voice is obviously cold, but I can hear tenderness in it! 】
[Hahaha sister, you are so funny. It would be believable if sweat flowed from the corners of the eyes and tears flowed from the corners of the mouth, okay? 】
[Ahem (adjusts bow tie) (walks onto the stage with elegant steps) (straightens microphone) (holds head high and chest out proudly) Let me introduce this to you all (announces very loudly) This is the song that Brother Xiu sang for us! ! ! 】
At the end of the short three-minute song, applause broke out and countless people shouted Shen Xiu's name.
"Chen Xiu, Chen Xiu!"
"Go ahead!"
"I will always support you, you are my first priority!"
"I'm just playing around with others, but I'm really playing with you, Xiu Xiu!"
Chen Xiu looked at the audience below the stage who were excitedly supporting him, and his heart settled down.
Everyone likes the songs he sings, and that's enough.
Shen Xiu bowed to the audience and once again thanked them solemnly: "Thank you!"
Shen Xiu raised his hand and waved it stiffly, not quite used to it.
His red eyes reflected the audience's unbridled laughter, and his nose felt slightly sore. For the first time since his parents passed away, he felt an unprecedented sense of joy and happiness that filled his entire heart.
Finally, Shen Xiu followed the procedure and walked behind the scenes, and the host He Ting came out from behind the scenes.
Shen Xiu, who returned to the backstage, went straight into the bathroom.
The bathroom was empty. Shen Xiu was embarrassed to look at his red eyes in the mirror, so he lowered his head, turned on the faucet, scooped up a handful of cold water and poured it on his face.
He was just on the stage... and almost cried. How embarrassing!
on stage.
“I guess our audiences at the scene and in the live broadcast room are very curious about why Shen Xiu can have a solo stage in our first performance, right?”
There was a fierce response from the audience: “Yes!!!”
"Please look at the big screen!" He Ting pointed at the big screen and looked over: "The 'Popularity King' of our first public stage is still Chen Xiu! The final solo stage is the reward for this 'Popularity King'."
Hearing what the host said, Xiang Yueting said carelessly: "Does anyone still think that it was a shady deal for Shen Xiu to get a solo stage? If you have the guts, let the audience give you a thumbs up for the shady deal once."
The backstage was quiet and no one responded.
"Ahem..." He Ting felt guilty when he thought about what he was going to announce, but since he was the host, he had to say it.
"Due to force majeure and to give other trainees a chance, our program team has discussed with Shen Xiu himself and decided that from now on, Shen Xiu will no longer participate in the competition for 'King of Popularity'."
[Ah this... I can only say that you are worthy of being called Master Xiu, 66666]
[Brother Xiu: I used to be a champion, but later, the production team directly bought me a room in the ban position]
[Is this the confidence of a strong person? He is so strong that he doesn't care about the reward of the 'King of Popularity'. 】
[From other trainees’ perspective, Xiu Xiu is a pretty nice person. 】
The barrage was full of 666s, and Chen Xiu himself agreed. Fans respected Chen Xiu's decision and were not too angry.
The trainees who had previously mocked Chen Xiu's shady dealings, now had distorted expressions or blushed with shame when they heard Chen Xiu give the opportunity to other trainees.
"There is another piece of news. After the ranking is announced tomorrow, the live broadcast content of each group's practice room during the first performance will be announced. Please look forward to it!"
[Ahhh, the production team really knows how to comfort us, and finally they are willing to release the live broadcast during the first public performance! 】
[I really want to know what Boss Kang Kang Xiu did in the practice room, rubbing his hands together! 】
Chen Xiu, who was in the bathroom, heard the "bad news" and thought of the shameful way he and his teammates practiced in the practice room. The temperature of the cold water that had just dropped after taking a shower rose again, and his ears and cheeks turned red.
I am too embarrassed to see anyone!
Just when Shen Xiu was seriously thinking about whether he should wear a mask in the next few days, he remembered that there were eight people who were embarrassed with him.
Shen Xiu: “…”
It seems like I can accept it a little bit.
【BaBa Forum】
Title: Has anyone watched the first public performance of a certain popular boy group audition?
Landlord
"Blood Romance" is a killer move! ! ! Is this the level that a public performance should have? By the way, I’ve never seen the original MV of “Blood Romance” before. Is it really as eye-catching as the comments say? But I think the stage effects of Team Shen Xiu are so great that the only word in the author's mind is "opera".
1L
Don’t listen to their nonsense, the original version of “Blood Romance” is super good, so good that it’s hard to stop stomping your feet. Go and see it. If it’s not good, I’ll give you LJS (Lin Jia Shi)’s head!
2L
+11111
3L
Big brother is right, go to Kang!
4L
OK, I received your recommendation, I’ll go get it right away!
5L
Merit upstairs-111111
6L
The merit is counted as 5L, go and get it!
7L
What does it mean to take my little white-haired brother away without any agreement and to step on him?
8L
It's just, disgusting, bah, my brother is really going to overcome his tribulation, this rubbish program crew and rubbish trainees only know how to bully my brother!
9L
Wait...could the white-haired brother be LJS (Lin Jia Shi)? ? ? What the hell, a noob like this can have fans? I feel sorry for ZY (Zhuang Yi).
10L
RC (Rong Cheng) and ZY (Zhuang Yi) are simply two enemies. When they meet two weird members LJS (Lin Jia Shi) and HKD (Huang Kangdi), I say, these two guys are doomed to fail.
11L
Sisters, don’t be angry. The rankings for the first public performance have been announced. These two weirdos will definitely be eliminated. Just wait and see.
12L
Sisters upstairs, don't think too much. I'm afraid you won't be able to accept the ranking results. I'm not trying to pour cold water on you. There are precedents. So-and-so worked hard throughout the entire show, but he still made it to the debut position.
13L
It doesn’t matter. Anyway, the one who will debut at the top position will definitely be my boss Xiu.
14L
There is no need to pretend until the last minute, it is not impossible for the group to be an upset.
15L
Damn, is LJS (Lin Jiashi)’s family really following in the footsteps of so-and-so? You want to imitate so-and-so who got the unexpected C position, but you don’t even consider whether you are as handsome as him/her. Your imitation is so weird that it’s hilarious.
16L
If it's an upset, I won't be able to watch it anymore. It's a waste of emotions. I hate people who don't work hard but only try to create a persona and play tricks. It's annoying just watching them!
17L
I'm back, you guys are so cruel! I'm going to the rehabilitation team to clean my eyes... huh? Why did you start arguing? Could LJS (Lim Ja Si) be the same LJS who had two stage accidents? Bad luck, bad luck, block, block, don’t come to my X team, get out of here!
The next day.
At nine o'clock in the morning, the ranking of the first performances will be announced.
One hundred trainees were divided into groups for the first performance. The two groups standing side by side, waiting for the decision of their fate on the road to the audition.
When the trainees saw the mentor group leader He Youna holding the list in her hand, they became nervous and even their breathing became nervous, their eyes fixed on the ranking list in He Youna's hand.
He Youna stood at the front of the stage, with a hundred trainees on her left and the rearranged pyramid seats on her right.
From the top of the pyramid to the bottom of the pyramid, until the entire pyramid is full, the first public ranking press conference is over. The trainees who are not sitting in one of the seats in the pyramid will pack up and leave the program team.
"Before the ranking list is released, I would like to ask everyone to read a sentence. Please look at the big screen."
Trainees: “?”
In the trainees' confused vision, a line of huge words appeared on the big screen behind He Youna, ensuring that every trainee could see it clearly.
[Is the person you want to vote for really hardworking enough to deserve your precious vote? Still paddling? Please press your choice! 】
The moment they saw this line of words, some trainees had no expression on their faces, some raised their eyebrows slightly, and some changed their expressions.
Shen Xiu raised his eyes to take a look, then quickly looked away.
He cares more about whether he and his teammates can continue to stay on the stage than the words on the screen.
Chen Xiu was very nervous. During the first public practice, his team members worked very hard. He was afraid that he, as the captain, would not lead them well and cause them to leave.
[Sure enough, people who have really worked hard will not care about this line of words. Boss Xiu just glanced at it and looked away. It is obvious that he has a clear conscience. 】
[I think this line is targeting Lin Jiashi. I have evidence. Click on the link to see Lin Jiashi’s two stage accidents.]
[You're crazy! Don't you allow people to make mistakes? Have you been perfect all your life? Why are you so harsh on your brother? 】
[If you dislike harshness, then don't participate in the talent show. If you want to be an idol but don't have the ability, is it reasonable to just slack off? 】
Looking at the words on the big screen, Lin Jiashi's face turned pale.
Lin Jiashi would never have thought that the program team would pop up such a reminder before the audience voted. Isn't this obviously meant to remind everyone to stay rational!
Chen Xiu... the production team... the trainees who were all so excited...
His rhythm and his counterattack plan were all disrupted at this moment.
If this isn't directed at him, then what is?
Lin Jiashi's heart collapsed and his breathing began to become rapid.
He Youna's voice sounded like a death warrant: "Have you finished reading it? Then, the ranking list will be announced. Now the list of 49-72 will be announced."
"Please ask the trainees whose names have been called to stand up from their respective teams and go to the pyramid seats and sit down according to their order of priority."
"Team Chen Xiu, Team Zhuang Yi, please listen carefully!"
It's like this, I'm jumping up and down like a badger, from Big Eyes to Subtitle Station and then to Little Sweet Potato. None of the melons are ripe recently, they are all raw, even the melons with pesticides are raw! ! ! hateful! ! ! Some babies said they couldn’t understand the abbreviation, so I added their names at the end, muah!
