Final 1
Eleven o'clock at night.
The renovation experts who bought houses online refreshed the Big Eyes browsing page as usual.
Two videos popped up unexpectedly, and the time they were posted was only a few seconds apart.
The first video was captioned with just the letters 'vlog', while the second video @ed the account name of his wife who had previously drawn pictures for him.
Fans of the trainees who have watched the live broadcast know that the trainees will release a vlog today.
Among the nine trainees, the only one who has not posted a vlog up to this point in time is Shen Xiu.
After waiting for such a long time, the experts finally got it out. They were so excited that they couldn’t express it in words. They clicked on the video before they had a chance to comment.
The first vlog was not long, only five minutes.
In the five-minute vlog, except for the beginning which is the view outside the window shot through the car window, the next four minutes and thirty seconds are all beautiful scenes one after another.
Shen Xiu didn't dare to take pictures of other people's homes. After the system allowed it, Shen Xiu chose to take pictures of the system's home.
Among Chen Xiu's major courses, there are two courses that require him to shoot a short video assignment every week. Chen Xiu had never shot a vlog before, so he shot it according to the landscape film.
Although no camera was used, Shen Xiu, who was familiar with shooting and editing techniques, ended up shooting and editing the film very well, making it pleasing to the eye at first glance.
——If I hadn’t watched other people’s videos and knew that the scenery in the video was the scenery of Xiu Bao’s home, I would have thought it was some kind of garden promotional video.
——Xiu Bao, are you sure that this photo was taken with a mobile phone? Why is it so stable? The pictures are so good that you can pause the video and take screenshots to use them as screen savers! Is it now popular that a guy who can’t shoot is not a good idol?
——Honestly, with this level of photography, if Xiubao is not an idol, he will definitely be a cameraman, etc...According to what Wang Ge and others said in the vlog, the scenery Xiubao posted is all in his home. With such a house, why would he be a photographer? (Playing bad)
After watching the first video, the scholars left comments and liked it, and then moved on to the second video.
If the first video was pleasing to the eyes of the practitioners, the second one was exciting.
In the video, Shen Xiu's entire body was painted wheat-colored and he wore ancient Egyptian clothing.
Around his slender neck and shoulders, he wore a golden necklace that resembled the radiant sun. On his exposed arms and bare ankles, he wore intricate and exquisite bracelets and anklets of the same color.
A huge, pitch-black snake coiled around Shen Xiuguang.
The black snake's tail wrapped around Shen Xiu's left calf, winding upwards, the snake's body wrapped around his waist, and the snake's head stretched out from the side of Shen Xiu's cheek, spitting out a black snake tongue.
Shen Xiu had golden eyes with vertical pupils and faint scales on his face. He was close to the black king snake, holding a scepter inlaid with gemstones in his hand, and his eyes were cold...
The second vlog is even shorter, only two minutes in total, and every minute and every second is the best part of the pictures and composition selected by Shen Xiu.
The practitioners were so engrossed in watching that they couldn't take their eyes off the screen.
——This is the largest black king snake I have ever seen. Ahhhh, it coiled around my king snake, its turned-up belly flashed with a beautiful colorful black luster, and its tongue was all black! Get along well with the king who looks dark and ruthless! Is this the colorful black?
——I rely on videos. We originally only wanted photos, but Xiubao, who always responds to our requests, directly upgraded them to videos for us. I don’t care, Xiubao loves us! ! !
——Who understands this kind of dangerous entanglement! The tension is at full blast! (Faints) Who can not love Sese's Great Demon King Xiu and Snake! King Xiu is the real body of the dangerous snake (hiss, hiss)
——My reason is telling me that people can’t... at least not... Ahhh, never mind, I won’t be that person today! Who made King Xiu tease me in every frame!
——The big devil Xiuhe and Sheshe have been looking at me through the camera. I suspect they want to pester me. I suggest you hurry up and send them over so I can check them (put on glasses and look serious)
——Suan Hai Ting (pointing and gesticulating), today it’s the cold and heartless King Xiu!
Tang Yiling, who was planning to check her phone before going to bed, opened her phone.
Seeing @, Tang Yiling rubbed her eyes in disbelief. After rubbing them for the third time, she finally confirmed it.
The special level demon king Xiu, whom she is a fan of, indeed @ her!
With excitement, Tang Yiling clicked on...
A minute later, Tang Yiling leaned back in her chair, clutching her heart, and screamed excitedly, "Ahhhh!!!"
Tang Yiling never expected that the picture she drew would have a follow-up!
Or is it a follow-up posted by the original author himself!
No matter which company in the domestic entertainment industry this is in, it will definitely be a blockbuster.
After all, many artists nowadays are held in high esteem by their fans. Which master would please a maid?
Tang Yiling still remembers that after she finished drawing the picture, she found that her picture had become a trending topic, so she reposted it again and typed in a comment that she wanted to see the great devil Xiu personally cosplay the picture she had drawn.
Naturally, the comments below are all from netizens and fans who share the same idea as her.
But she only dared to think about it and never expected that her dream would come true!
After the excitement, Tang Yiling forwarded it passionately.
@揽月清风: Ahhhhhhhhhhh King Xiu, I love you so much! (At this moment, only screaming can express my happiness!) //@沉修: Thank you for the picture [video]
——King Xiu +1, you’re killing me!
——What should I do, sisters? The colder the eyes that Xiu Wang looks at me, the more excited I become, and the more I want to take off the beep beep......
——Sister, I understand you. Who wouldn’t want to drive the abstinent and cold-blooded King Xiu crazy? What is this? The material provided by King Xiu himself, come to @Scissorhands wives
The vlogs posted by other trainees during the day have been on many hot searches.
The two vlogs released by Chen Xiu in the evening were so popular due to the comments from Xiu scholars and Lan Yue Qing Feng fans that they were on several hot search terms before they ended at midnight.
In just one day, the production crew experienced the joy of being led by their own trainees.
The program team also took advantage of this time to promote the show vigorously.
Of course, it is inevitable that some people will make sarcastic remarks below.
The trainees have strong professional abilities, are humble and hardworking, treat their fans sincerely and are very popular. Although they haven't made their official debut yet, they already have a lot of fans and the number is still increasing.
It is obviously irrational to provoke the popular trainees. People who are picking on the weak will be the only ones who can say sour things and make sarcastic comments under the blog posts forwarded by the program team.
In the past, all the talent show teams have been criticized, and no one cares about the life or death of the program team.
However, those who have not watched "Young Man Invincible" don't understand.
Although the audience will never forget the immoral behavior of the program crew, their behavior as human beings has also touched the hearts of the audience.
Seeing someone being sarcastic towards the production team, the fans of each trainee were happy to charge forward.
——Hey, you may not know that I am not only a fan of Xiuxue, but also a fan of the program crew. Do you dare to bully it and treat me as if I don’t exist?
——Who (rushes over with a knife upon hearing the news) who dares to bully my wicked little pig... Group!
——(Pick and dig) Ah, I found it (point and groan) It turns out to be a Ming powder, tsk tsk (throws it away with disdain)
Duan Mingfei is not very happy today.
No...it can no longer be expressed with just three simple words: 'unhappy'. He feels that he is extremely unlucky!
After taking photos today, he immediately bought trending searches and arranged for fans to send private messages to VG.
Unexpectedly, the nine trainees of "Young Boys Are Invincible" appeared on the hot searches one after another from morning to night, as if they had made an appointment.
Even the popularity of the program team itself is higher than the hot searches he bought.
Duan Mingfei had no choice but to instruct his assistant to continue buying hot searches the next day.
As long as his set of photos is popular enough, there is no need to worry that Kaiser won't see it.
Chen Xiu, who knew nothing about this, returned to the training camp, handed his phone to Shi Buwen, and went back to the dormitory.
Shi Buwen put Shen Xiu's phone into the transparent bag that the staff handed to him, sealed it and handed it to the staff.
The staff member took his phone and was about to leave when he suddenly heard Shi Buwen's voice behind him.
"Xiaolu, do you feel happy doing homework?"
The staff member recalled the fear of being dominated by homework when he was a student, and a mask of pain was put on his face for a second: "Director Shi, are you kidding?"
"You have no idea how happy I was when I graduated from college and got rid of my working life!"
Shi Buwen comforted himself: "It seems that I am a normal person."
“By the way, I have a friend… He offended Shen Xiu and didn’t dare to apologize. Is that weird?”
The staff member thought of Shen Xiu's cold gaze, and answered without hesitation for a second: "Not strange!"
Shi Buwen touched his chest and waved goodbye to the staff: "It's late, put your phone away and go to rest."
Wait until he has the courage to apologize!
At least... we have to wait until the day Kaiser officially announces Chen Xiu as the spokesperson for the summer series. If Chen Xiu is happy, maybe he won't mind his exposure of his privacy?
"good."
Xiaolu walked a few steps and suddenly realized something and muttered to himself: "The friend that Director Shi mentioned must be himself!"
dormitory.
The moment he opened the door, Shen Xiu saw that the other eight people were all in the dormitory. His hand fell on the door handle and he froze at the door.
Seeing Chen Xiu, Xiang Yueting, who was lying on the chair, sat up straight in a second, looking at Chen Xiu with bright eyes: "Ah! You are finally back!"
"where have you been?"
"Didn't you say you were in the practice room today? After I came back, I looked for you in the practice room. I searched every practice room, but I couldn't find you."
"You're not lying to me, are you?"
"in the end......"
Song Chengwang interrupted Xiang Yueting's non-stop questioning and said, "Xiang Yueting, talk less. You're giving me a headache."
Shang Yu added: “You have to give Shen Xiu a chance to speak.”
“Ah~”
Xiang Yueting let out a howl, and when he looked at Chen Xiu, he made a zipper motion on his mouth with his hand. He blinked and looked at Chen Xiu speechlessly, signaling himself to shut up. It was Chen Xiu's turn to speak.
The quiet dormitory was bustling again. Shen Xiu did not feel it was noisy, but just felt lively. The hidden annoyance in his heart disappeared in an instant.
"It doesn't matter." He liked to hear it and was happy in his heart.
After Shen Xiu finished speaking, he found that his voice was hoarse due to sobbing, and he stopped talking in embarrassment.
After a few seconds of pause, Shen Xiu secretly moved his Adam's apple, and only when he felt that he had returned to normal did he dare to continue speaking.
Xiang Yueting put his hand down from his mouth: "I understand, my voice is nice, you like it!"
Shen Xiu: "...as long as you are happy."
After the awkward conversation, Shen Xiu began to answer questions.
"I'm not lying to you. I was planning to stay in the training camp, but Director Shi took me to the teacher's house."
"Teacher?" Song Chengwang asked puzzledly.
Xia Wenhao was curious: "Director Shi?"
Ning Sinian exclaimed: "It turns out that the chief director of our program group is named Shi!"
When the remaining few people heard someone raise the question in their hearts, they simply kept silent and just pricked up their ears to eat the melon.
After returning to the dormitory, they handed in their phones. At that time, Chen Xiu hadn't come back yet, so they naturally didn't see the Weibo post that Chen Xiu had sent.
Of course, I don’t know where Shen Xiu went.
Shen Xiu found that he had unknowingly gotten used to everyone's way of speaking, and he waited for everyone to finish speaking before continuing to answer them one by one.
"Professor Jiang Jinya Jiang, Teacher Jiang was my university teacher."
"Director Shi's surname is Shi. It seems that Director Shi is also the teacher's student. The teacher and I have invited us to be the guests."
When he heard that he was going to the house of a teacher, who was a professor-level teacher, the poor student Xiang Yueting shuddered.
“How terrible!”
Anyone who dares to go to the teacher's house is a warrior!
Song Chengwang, who was also a poor student, was timid but curious: "Can I ask you what you do at the teacher's house?"
When eating at the same table with the teacher, I was always in danger of being questioned by the teacher. If I wasn't careful, I would make eye contact with the teacher, and I would feel awkward sitting in the teacher's house...
Just imagining it made Song Chengwang feel suffocated.
Shen Xiu answered honestly: "I was watching the movie and writing an analysis to hand in to the teacher. What Director Shi said... I didn't pay attention."
In his memory today, Shi Buwen went in and out of his teacher's house with him, but other than that, he had no special impression of him.
After saying this, Shen Xiu seemed to remember something and took his hand from the door handle to his eyes.
Seeing the black ring on her index finger, she muttered to herself, "Oops, I forgot to return the ring to Director Shi."
Wait...why did Director Shi ask him to wear the ring today?
Shen Xiu couldn't figure it out and frowned slightly in confusion.
Hearing Shen Xiu's words, Jiang Yanxi gasped: "Director Shi gave Shen Xiu a ring!!!"
Mu Zhenchu was shocked: "What kind of magic is this?"
Song Chengwang: "Your circle is so good, so chaotic!"
Hearing everyone's voices, Shen Xiu looked at his friends: "Hmm?"
When he came into contact with Shen Xiu's chilly gaze and low, cold voice, the slightly raised tone of the word "hmm" clearly carried a threatening meaning.
Several people spoke up.
"I know nothing!"
"Don't worry, I will keep my mouth shut!"
"Xiu, I have a secret to tell you. I am actually deaf."
"Help, what do you know and why are you keeping it a secret? Do you want to drive me crazy?" Xiang Yueting said angrily.
Shang Yu raised his hands to cover his face: "Have you had enough fun?"
The ring didn't look like it had any design style, and Shi Buwen specifically asked Shen Xiu to wear it. Shang Yu quickly guessed the whole story.
But Shen Xiu didn't say anything, so he pretended to know nothing.
Shen Xiu, who couldn’t understand what his friends were doing but was happy because of their familiar actions, said, “I’ll go wash up.”
Shen Xiu took off the ring, put it in the drawer, took his pajamas, and walked towards the bathroom while thinking to himself.
It’s too late. Let’s give the ring to Director Shi next time.
When Shen Xiu's back disappeared from his sight, Xia Wenhao said, "With Shen Xiu's outfit and the ring on his index finger, today is definitely not just a simple visit to the teacher's house."
Zhuang Yi nodded in agreement: “Chen Xiu’s outfit is not simple, and it is even more complicated when he goes with Director Shi.”
When Shang Yu took the initiative to bring everyone to his home, he had already planned to try to have a heart-to-heart talk with everyone.
So he didn’t hide it from everyone: “It should be an endorsement.”
After he finished speaking, Shang Yu added: “If Chen Xiu doesn’t tell us, we will just pretend we don’t know.”
Hearing the word "endorsement", several people were surprised.
After a few seconds of pause, Song Chengwang understood and said, "Given Shen Xiu's personality, if the endorsement was important, Shen Xiu would definitely tell us. Shen Xiu didn't mention it after he came back. It must be because in Shen Xiu's heart, the endorsement was not something that Shen Xiu took to heart at all. Watching a movie and writing an analysis to hand in to Professor Jiang was the important thing in Shen Xiu's heart."
Jiang Yanxi: "It's well-founded and cannot be refuted."
Ning Sinian nodded: "That must be the case!"
Zhuang Yi: "I can only say that you are worthy of being called Shen Xiu, and you will never let me down."
"It's terrible that the King of Rolls wants to do everything to the best of his ability!"
After Shen Xiu finished washing up and walked out of the bathroom, he found everyone's hot gazes on him, and his scalp tingled.
What's going on, my friends? !
The next day.
At seven o'clock in the morning, the nine people got up tacitly, and at half past seven, after breakfast, they gathered in the practice room.
On the day when the second stage repertoire was announced, the nine people had already sung "Eternal Starlight" and divided the parts.
Therefore, in the next three days, they only need to repeat the practice and run in.
There was still no live broadcast of the following three days of practice. In the practice room, the trainees kept repeating boring exercises.
Unable to see the training situation inside, the fans in the live broadcast room who were in the corridor could only wait and watch but did not leave and were still building a team in the barrage.
[Have you guys seen the promotional photos released by a certain studio? 】
[If it's the character played by DMF...I can only say, eat something good. 】
[+11111, I don't understand. That character talks back to the teacher in class, bullies the transfer student, fights in school, makes dirty jokes to the female classmates passing by while standing on the teaching building, and always puts his tongue in his mouth and cheeks. Who on earth likes such a street urchin? Respect and laugh at him.]
When the trainees were practicing "Eternal Starlight", Duan Mingfei's fans, led by the big fans raised by Duan Mingfei's studio, kept sending photos to VG mailbox to recommend Duan Mingfei.
Too many emails were sent. Kaiser's assistant had added Duan Mingfei's assistant before and knew that this was a fake operation by Duan Mingfei, so he told Kaiser about it.
After looking at Duan Mingfei's photo, Kaiser frowned: "Tell them not to send private messages anymore."
He had already asked his assistant to inform the other party that a suitable candidate already existed, so why did no one believe it?
Three days later, the practice of "Eternal Starlight" was completed.
On the fourth day, the finals began.
Six o'clock in the evening, in the familiar construction venue.
The finals had not officially started yet, so naturally not all the audience had arrived yet. The venue was sparsely populated with those who had eaten and arrived early.
As time passed, the venue gradually filled up.
But no matter how many spectators came, those who arrived early were surprised to find that the first two rows of seats were always empty and no one was sitting there.
"Hey, why are the first two rows empty?"
"The front row... should be reserved for people in the industry, or for the trainees' families. The trainees should have tickets to give to their families."
"That should be it."
The nine people who were preparing nervously backstage were afraid that the production team would do something outrageous during the finals, so they stayed in the rooms arranged for them, taking the time to check whether everything they had prepared for their first stage performance was complete.
They had no time or energy to watch what was happening at the venue.
Inside the venue, when almost all seats were filled by ticketed audiences, a group of familiar people entered the venue.
When they saw them, the audience who were gossiping and chatting widened their eyes, and some even covered their mouths in disbelief.
"Ahhh it's them!"
"The production team actually invited all the previously eliminated trainees to come!"
“I don’t know why, but I was suddenly so moved when I saw everyone gathered together on the final night!”
"That's Lin Jiashi, right? Why is he wearing a mask?"
"Definitely. No matter what Lin Jiashi is like, I have to say that his pink and white hair is really eye-catching among the black hair. By the way, Lin Jiashi is so obviously lazy, why did the program team invite Lin Jiashi?"
"After all, they are all people who have participated in the show. As a program team, we should treat them equally, otherwise we will be called stingy. I thought Lin Jiashi would not come. Tsk tsk...his mentality is amazing."
Amid the audience's gossiping, 91 people walked towards the first two rows of seats reserved for them by the program production team.
As the most popular trainee among the eliminated trainees, Lin Jiashi naturally walked straight to the middle of the first row.
But when he had only walked one-third of the way, someone rushed up from behind and sat down in the seat he originally wanted to sit.
"An An, let's sit here!"
Zhou Tong excitedly pulled Ke Zian to sit down: "We can see them better from here!"
"Okay." Ke Zian sat down, and Lu Qian and Jiang Yuheng also sat down close to him.
All in all, several people took up all the seats in the middle.
Ke Zian had looked for Lin Jiashi, but Lin Jiashi never responded. When they met again today, Ke Zian didn't dare to get close to Lin Jiashi.
In the end, Lin Jiashi could only sit down on the side with indignation.
At 7:30, the final officially began.
He Ting came on stage: "Let's welcome the nine trainees with warm applause!"
Nine trainees lined up on the stage amid the applause and enthusiastic cheers of the audience.
Seeing the familiar people in the first two rows, the nine people on the stage were either surprised or shocked.
When Shen Xiu saw the familiar trainees, he was also surprised. He knew everyone's name, but when facing a group of people, his eyes would always habitually look for the person he was most familiar with in the group.
Therefore, the moment Shen Xiu saw everyone, he subconsciously searched one by one, looking for the friends who had fought side by side with him.
Since familiar friends were scattered everywhere, Shen Xiu swept through both rows.
Noticing Shen Xiu's gaze, Lin Jiashi didn't have time to take off his mask before Shen Xiu's gaze passed over him and fell on Ke Zian.
Lin Jiashi: “…”
"Although Boss Xiu looked at us without any fluctuations and his expression was cold, I know that Boss Xiu has us in his heart, otherwise why would he look at us from beginning to end!"
"As a new cultivator, you are right!"
"Wow, I didn't expect that even though I've never worked with Boss Xiu before, he would still look at me. I'm touched!"
on stage.
Seeing the staff holding the black box approaching the nine people, He Ting said: "We have already reached the finals. I believe that all dear audience members already know the process of our program. Then, I will not say any more nonsense. Now, please start drawing lots and perform on stage according to the order of the numbers on the slips."
Hearing the word 'draw lots', based on past experience, Shen Xiu couldn't help but pray in his heart.
Please, let me be the last one to pray, so that I can pray longer!
This way, he is more likely to rely on his bad luck.
Shen Xiu finished thinking in his mind one second ago, and the next second he saw the staff walking towards him with a box.
Chen Xiu: ...I am autistic.
The staff member walked up to Shen Xiu, who was standing on the far left, and said, “Please draw a lot.”
Shen Xiu: “…Okay, thank you.”
The number 1 means the first to perform, and the first round of voting will not begin until the ninth trainee has finished performing.
This means that the performances of the trainees who were drawn earlier will most likely be forgotten by the audience, which will be detrimental to the first round of voting.
After analyzing the pros and cons, Shen Xiu reached into the box and prayed in his heart—
At least don't let him draw number 1!
good evening!
