Second performance preparation 6
Zhao Mingwei, who was still hesitating and didn't dare to speak, heard Shen Xiu's cold voice, subconsciously looked up, and met Shen Xiu's cold gaze.
Shen Xiu said lightly, "Something happened," which was full of oppression, and Zhao Mingwei's hand holding the paper trembled.
"I, I..." Zhao Mingwei's throat felt like it was blocked by a ball of cotton.
Seeing that Zhao Mingwei was under great pressure, Xia Wenhao patted Zhao Mingwei on the shoulder and said, "If you have anything to say, just tell me. We are a team, there is nothing that cannot be discussed with the captain."
Chen Xiu looked at Xia Wenhao with gratitude, that was exactly the truth!
Xia Wenhao: “…”
Why did Shen Xiu suddenly look at him coldly?
Ke Zian glared at Xia Wenhao. The two childhood friends communicated silently with their eyes: You are so stupid! Bosses don't like to be questioned about their decisions!
After Xia Wenhao comforted Zhao Mingwei, Shen Xiu waited for a few seconds. Zhao Mingwei lowered his eyes and looked at the paper in his hand without saying a word. Shen Xiu was anxious.
Especially after Xia Wenhao's voice, the practice room was so quiet that only the sound of everyone's breathing remained. Shen Xiu was so nervous that he felt his heart was beating too fast.
In order to prevent everyone from noticing the embarrassing sound of his accelerated heartbeat, Shen Xiu gritted his teeth and spoke again: “Go ahead.”
Zhao Mingwei was in a state of confusion. He suddenly heard Shen Xiu's cold command. His head buzzed, his mouth flew in front, and his mind was confused at the back: "I think my part is not divided appropriately."
"When it's my turn, can you please change your position?"
After saying that, the entire practice room fell into an even more eerie silence.
The other members looked at Shen Xiu's face carefully. Shen Xiu still had a blank expression and no change in his emotions could be seen. Everyone could only turn their attention to Zhao Mingwei.
There was only one thought in my mind: Zhao Mingwei is brave, so brave!
It was the first time they saw someone dare to question Shen Xiu’s decision to his face. Shen Xiu...would be angry, right?
Zhao Mingwei, who had been frightened by Shen Xiu and blurted out all his thoughts, was now even more flustered and buried his head even deeper.
On the paper each person was given, not only was each person's part marked on it, but each person's position on the stage at that point in time was also marked with the familiar round-headed figures below.
Each person’s name was written on the round head, and Zhao Mingwei could immediately see what his stage position would look like when he had his part.
To be fair, there was no problem with his stage positioning, as the other group members were positioned similarly to him.
But...he is shorter than others! ! !
According to Chen Xiuhua's standing position, there would be absolutely no problem if other team members changed their positions, and they would indeed become the focus of the stage at that moment.
But when he stood like that, the people around him were tall, and he was short in the middle... No, at that moment, Yuan Jiafei in front of him could block him completely.
This...does he still have a presence on stage?
Zhao Mingwei was very timid in front of Shen Xiu. When he saw Shen Xiu's cold expression, he unconsciously wanted to run away, but he was more afraid that this would be his last stage.
For the sake of his own fate in this talent show, he had to give it a try even if the target was Chen Xiu.
The dance was the best posture that Chen Xiu simulated until two o'clock last night, and it was the stage effect that best represented this song. It was harmonious from beginning to end, and one move affected the whole body.
Absolutely cannot be changed.
Shen Xiu said truthfully: “No.”
Zhao Mingwei's face turned pale: "Why?"
His whole body was shaking. “I don’t understand.”
If I were to explain it, I'd have to say a lot, from the dance effects to the details of how it matches the song.
Talking too much means you run the risk of stuttering in front of everyone.
Shen Xiu was just imagining it, and his throat was resisting.
For this reason, Chen Xiu was silent for a few seconds, and then said, "It takes one hour to familiarize yourself with your parts. After one hour, everyone will put on the microphone and dance once."
After the dance, Zhao Mingwei knew why he gave this part of the dance to him.
When he assigned parts to each group member, he considered not only fairness on the stage, but also the degree of suitability of everyone's appearance with the singing scene at the time.
Based on Zhao Mingwei's appearance and his previous performances on stage, he had to play that part.
Zhao Mingwei wanted to say something, but Yuan Jiafei pulled his arm and he stopped talking.
The atmosphere was too tense, so Xia Wenhao came out to smooth things over.
"The official practice will start in an hour. Why are you still standing there like an idiot? Why don't you get familiar with your part?"
Ke Zian echoed his childhood friend: "Well, I'm going to get familiar with it!"
"Ah, I'll go too."
Zhao Mingwei was dragged away by Gao Yongshi.
Ever since Lin Jiashi left and experienced Shen Xiu's coldness and strictness, no one dared to treat Shen Xiu perfunctorily, for fear that Shen Xiu would be harsh on them.
Even Zhao Mingwei, who had to start his first training in an hour, quickly got himself together and threw himself into practice.
Looking at his friends who were practicing seriously in front of the mirror, Shen Xiu secretly breathed a sigh of relief and also practiced his own part.
Because they had to sing while dancing, in order not to disturb others or be disturbed by others, everyone spontaneously put on headphones to block out external influences.
As for how well they sing, everyone has gone through training and has a good idea of their own level.
With no sound and the screen full of cat heads, the audience was confused.
[Can anyone tell me what the tense atmosphere just now was about? 】
[Familiar recipe, familiar taste, the program crew is still asking for trouble as always. 】
[After watching so many talent shows, this is the first time that I can’t wait to fast forward to the end of the second performance to decipher what happened during the second public training! 】
An hour passed quickly.
The team members saw Shen Xiu taking off his headphones in the large mirror in front of them, and they also took off their headphones.
During the one-hour practice, everyone was too embarrassed to stop because they saw that Chen Xiu had never stopped to rest.
At this moment, they were sweating all over after training, and looking at Shen Xiu's calm appearance without even shortness of breath, they felt envious and admired.
When will they be able to have the same physical strength as Shen Xiu!
Seeing the sweat on everyone's forehead and how hot they looked, Shen Xiu said, "Take a break for ten minutes and go wash your faces."
After Shen Xiu finished speaking, the team members went into the bathroom that came with the practice room in twos and threes to wash their faces.
In the bathroom.
Zhao Mingwei stared at himself in the mirror, his face covered with water droplets. He looked unhappy and obviously not very happy.
Zhao Mingwei already had a gloomy look to begin with, and he was in a bad mood at the moment, looking like there was a dark cloud floating over his head.
Xia Wenhao patted Zhao Mingwei on the shoulder from behind: “Don’t think too much, believe Shen Xiu, he must have his own reasons.”
Gao Yongshi also said: "Let's see the results of the practice first. If the effect is really not good, I will speak for you."
Zhou Tong finished washing his face and squinted into his eyes. He rubbed his eyes and said, "The overall harmony of the stage is good for each of us, so it's the same for me."
Ke Zian clasped his palms and murmured, "If the effect is not good, it will affect the entire stage. I will also ask Team Xiu to reconsider it. Of course, if the stage effect is good, Team Xiu's decision is correct."
There were too many people in the restroom, and Chen Xiu was afraid of the crowds, plus he wasn't sweating, so he simply didn't go in, and walked towards the black bag that had been placed on the table by the wall.
Shen Xiu searched in the bag for a few seconds, found a black shopping bag, and took it out.
Ten minutes later, everyone came out of the bathroom one after another.
Seeing Zhao Mingwei coming out last, Shen Xiu handed over the bag: "Change it."
Looking at the black shopping bag in front of him, Zhao Mingwei's eyes were full of confusion: "Ah?"
In the practice room, except for Shen Xiu, everyone's expression was exactly the same as Zhao Mingwei's, and their curious eyes fell on the shopping bag.
The shopping bag was pure black, without any markings, and it was impossible to tell what was inside.
Although Zhao Mingwei was confused, he took the shopping bag obediently, reached into the bag with doubt, and took out a box.
Under everyone's curious gaze, the box was opened, revealing a pair of cool-looking Martin boots.
What’s important is that the soles of Martin boots are clearly of a certain height.
Chen Xiu was afraid that everyone would misunderstand that he disliked Zhao Mingwei's shortness, so he hurriedly explained: "Wearing this will have a better stage effect."
In that way, when Zhao Mingwei is with his little C, he will not be buried by the people around him and can be clearly noticed by the audience.
Zhao Mingwei: “!”
He never expected that when Shen Xiu gave him the part that belonged to him, he had already taken his height into consideration.
No...Thinking back carefully, this bag was brought into the practice room together with the noise-canceling headphones by Chen Xiu!
Because these were things brought by Chen Xiu, everyone was afraid that they might be Chen Xiu's personal belongings, so they didn't dare to rummage through them. They only saw the black shopping bag through the open opening.
Shen Xiu actually thought about today from that time...
At this moment, the look in Zhao Mingwei's eyes when he looked at Shen Xiu was not only touching, but also full of admiration.
Shen Xiu... is so awesome!
No wonder she decisively rejected his idea of changing parts at the beginning. It turned out that she had already solved all his worries.
"Captain Xiu, thank you!" Zhao Mingwei tightened his grip on the shoe box. His voice was trembling with excitement due to the surging emotions in his heart.
Shen Xiu's heart was relieved: "It should be."
As the captain, you naturally have to take into account the situation of each member and make the most reasonable overall arrangement.
Fortunately, Zhao Mingwei was not angry.
Zhao Mingwei is actually not very short, but in a team where the average height of team members is over 182cm, the shoes that everyone will wear on stage in the future will be a little higher.
In this situation, when Zhao Mingwei stands together with everyone else, he appears to be concave, and it is easy for him to suffer a loss when they stand in the small C position on the stage.
So when he went to the program crew to get things, he also helped Zhao Mingwei get a few pairs of height-increasing shoes. The height-increasing shoes are the same height at the front and back, so the feet won't hurt when wearing them.
Chen Xiu hopes that Zhao Mingwei can always wear shoes of this height during practice, so that he can reduce the probability of making mistakes on stage after he gets used to it.
Zhao Mingwei, feeling excited, sat on a chair in the corner and changed his shoes.
The shoes fit well and Zhao Mingwei had no discomfort wearing them.
The scene before him lasted no more than five minutes, and Yuan Jiafei pushed his chin back.
It’s amazing, that’s all he could say.
Shen Xiu is worthy of being a big shot, he can’t guess it, he can’t guess it at all!
Yuan Jiafei secretly looked at the expressions of his friends and was satisfied when he saw that everyone had the same expression as him.
It seems that he is not the only one who is not very smart, everyone is the same.
The moment Zhao Mingwei took the shoes out of the shoe box, Shen Xiu felt the gazes from his friends.
As expected...giving people height-increasing shoes is an act that is very strange no matter where it is placed. You wouldn't think he is weird, right?
No matter what, everything is for the stage, so let him be regarded as a weirdo. Chen Xiu walked onto the stage in self-abandonment and set the accompaniment playback time on the multimedia equipment.
After the setup, Chen Xiu walked to his position. Chen Xiu was the big C. Everyone quickly found their positions on the stage based on the position of the big C and got into position...
After three and a half minutes, the first stage performance in the practice room ended.
Facts have proved that Shen Xiu's persistence was not wrong. The moment Zhao Mingwei got the shoes, he realized that he had wronged Shen Xiu. He was indeed assigned the stage that best suited him.
During the first training session, the spirits were high and the training was very serious.
After the first training session, everyone stared at Zhao Mingwei, who was full of fighting spirit and looked like a completely different person. They had only one thought in their minds: It seemed that they didn't know Chen Xiu well enough.
How could a truly strong person get angry and furious just because of a few words of doubt?
While Shen Xiu does not show his emotions on his face, he is also absolutely confident in his own arrangements. No matter what doubts he faces, he will confidently reject them and give perfect answers with reason and evidence.
Shen Xiu is a truly powerful man!
And...whose captain went straight to the production crew to get a pair of height-increasing shoes when the songs weren't even out yet! ! !
It turns out that before the songs came out, Boss Xiu had already thought about the stage positions.
This is the legendary masterful planning and careful consideration!
After it was over, Zhao Mingwei was like a child who had bought new shoes, excitedly looking at his feet all the time.
As he watched, Zhao Mingwei recalled his previous performance on stage, and the more he thought about it, the more excited he became.
If he hadn't been afraid that Chen Xiu would think he was crying, Zhao Mingwei would have almost lost control of his tears. He looked at Chen Xiu with even more passion and said gratefully again, "Captain Xiu, thank you!"
Others: “…” So sour! I really want to catch this peacock with its tail spread out!
Hasn’t this been said before? Why are you saying it now? Chen Xiu: “…No need.”
Whether it was Zhao Mingwei or the looks everyone was giving him, Shen Xiu didn’t really understand.
Although Shen Xiu didn't want to admit it, today was also a day when he failed to see eye to eye with everyone...

[If there is an exam where you have to guess the story by looking at the picture, I will definitely guess the place name from the last one. I can’t guess it, absolutely not at all! 】
[Ha (sneers) (takes out a cigar and lights it) (takes a puff and blows out round smoke rings) I have matured and have learned to draw circles to curse the production team]
[Heh (sneers and draws the sword) I have matured and am already practicing throwing knives]
【(Frowning worriedly) Are you all... in good spirits? (Looking through boxes and cabinets for a sniper rifle) Ah, I found it! (Bullets loaded) Sisters, wait a minute, I am the direct disciple of the killer Xiu (Never miss a shot, the boss of the program team is hit) Ahhh, I hit it, sisters, the new boss of the program team promised to turn on the sound for us later! 】
Zhao Mingwei, who was in a good mood, talked a lot and became bolder. He happily asked Shen Xiu: "Captain Xiu, how was our first training just now?"
How about it?
At this moment, Shen Xiu recalled the stage he saw in the mirror, and the only word left in his mind was "oil".
No one knows better than Chen Xiu how many cool moves there are in the dance product of the song "Crazy". From the choreography videos submitted by everyone, Chen Xiu can also see that everyone is really working hard to be "cool".
In order to harmoniously incorporate these actions that everyone likes into "Crazy", Shen Xiu spent a lot of effort and tried to revise it countless times.
Therefore, Chen Xiu knew very well that "Crazy" was a dance that would look very greasy if it was not performed well or if the stage performance was not strong enough.
But Shen Xiu never expected that after watching everyone's first performance, he would be speechless by the strange and wonderful actions of his teammates.
What he wanted was the struggle that breaks out at the moment of death, the soundless clarity and silence after the clouds have cleared to reveal the sun, the long blank space left when a young bird grows new wings and soars into the sky, not the ostentatious performance of a group of peacocks competing to spread their tails!
Not only will everyone's performance just now be ridiculed by the crowd and nailed to the pillar of shame, but we will also lose the competition in the second public group match!
Finish! (Proudly akimbo)
