Second performance preparation 7
The greasy performance put the entire team in jeopardy, the verbal explanation was too pale, and the key point was that he still needed to say a lot.
Shen Xiu intends to use a more intuitive method to make everyone aware of the seriousness of the problem.
Glancing at his friends, Chen Xiu spent a few seconds organizing his words in his mind, and spoke solemnly: "Pairs of people, don't look in the mirror, imagine each other as the audience under the stage, listen to the accompaniment and when it's your part, dance accordingly, and when it's my part, automatically skip it."
"Don't forget the song. Remember, when the other person is taking a part, you must think of yourself as an audience member."
Only by putting yourself in the shoes of the audience can you understand how unbearable such a stage would be.
It’s like when you watch a bad movie, the leading actor always wants to save his own reputation, but as an audience, you just want to call it rubbish.
After the jump, everyone... should understand where the problem lies, right?
Team members: Hmm... well, I just don’t quite understand what Captain Xiu means.
But Captain Xiu’s expression was so serious and scary.
Everyone was puzzled, but they thought that Shen Xiu must have a reason for asking them to do so, so they didn't ask any more questions. The eight people automatically divided into four teams and found their positions in front of the mirror.
After standing up, everyone made an OK gesture, looked at their teammates opposite them, and took a deep breath.
The team members tacitly sent a representative, and Xia Wenhao shouted, "We are ready, set up the team, and play music."
"Yeah." Shen Xiu stood in front of the multimedia device and clicked play while responding.
As the music sounded, the group members began their performances in the order of the timeline and with the accompaniment...
The first person to open his voice was Ke Zian. Ke Zian's voice was ethereal and clear, making him unique among many trainees.
Ke Zian's part ended and no one noticed anything unusual until it was Gao Yongshi's turn.
Gao Yongshi and Yuan Jiafei were face to face. Yuan Jiafei heard Gao Yongshi's singing and saw Gao Yongshi stand up from the ground with a dance move in an instant, while looking up at him with a confused look.
When Gao Yongshi completed the action later, his eyes never left himself, and his limbs were twisted not like the tender shoots climbing through the thorns as described in the lyrics, but like twisting a doughnut.
At this moment...Yuan Jiafei, who was in the audience's perspective, felt that his eyes were so hot.
But... Gao Yongshi doesn't seem to think so. He seems to think that his movements are very handsome and his singing is very deep and charming?
Yuan Jiafei admitted that the dance moves they choreographed were indeed very cool, but... why were they so unbearable to dance to!
Is it Gao Yongshi’s problem? It must be!
The dance moves are really cool, there must be no problem! He will sneak a peek at Song Joon-young's performance later to confirm that what he thought must be right!
Ko Young-seo is finished, it's Song Joon-young's turn...
Eight seconds later, Song Joon-young finished.
Yuan Jiafei: “…”
Why does Song Joon-young’s singing and dancing make him so... sick?
Zhou Tong and Yuan Jiafei, who were standing opposite Song Junying, had the same question.
What should have been a short three and a half minutes became so long and torturous in everyone's eyes.
All members of Team Chen Xiu: Let’s finish this soon, my eyes are almost being burned!
After the outro ended, without Chen Xiu saying anything, the groups couldn't help but complain to each other.
After being together in the training camp for so long, everyone has already become familiar with each other. Now they are in the same team. For the common interests of the team, they can complain without hesitation.
"yue..."
"Ahhh Xia Wenhao, what are you doing? Your expression gives me goose bumps!"
"I was just about to ask you, why didn't I notice that the way you look at people is so disgusting before!"
"Work injury, definitely a work injury!"
"I want to gouge my own eyes out! What have I done wrong? It depends on where you are twisting your body!"
"Help me, how can you do such a handsome move so ugly?"
"It's so funny, how dare you say that to me? Do you think you're handsome? It's your movements that are handsome, not you. You're so young, but you're so stupid. It really makes me laugh."
Shen Xiu stared quietly at the action analysis on the multimedia device screen, intending to give everyone five minutes to argue with each other.
Pointing out each other's faults would also help everyone better understand where the problem lies, so Chen Xiu never intended to stop it.
Everyone argued for five minutes, and suddenly realized that Shen Xiu had not said a word from beginning to end. Thinking of what Shen Xiu had said before, everyone couldn't help but look at Shen Xiu.
Chen Xiu lowered his eyes, leaned forward without looking up, and they couldn't see the expression on Chen Xiu's face, but since the dance ended, Chen Xiu hadn't spoken a word, so they tacitly assumed that Chen Xiu must be angry.
What’s more, they argued for several minutes, and Shen Xiu didn’t say a word, so he must have been very angry.
The members looked at each other, with guilt written all over their eyes.
At this moment, they also understood that Chen Xiu had asked them to put themselves into the audience's perspective and watch the other party dance together, which must have been to make them recognize their ugly faces.
All I can say is that Chen Xiu is worthy of being Chen Xiu. When it comes to important matters concerning their fate on stage, he is always so serious and cold.
No matter whether it is towards Lin Jiashi or towards them, whoever affects the stage will be ruthlessly killed by him, and he insists on fairness and justice.
Zhao Mingwei also deeply understood why Shen Xiu fell silent after he asked the question about how everyone danced.
Perhaps, that moment of silence was the greatest kindness to them.
After they finished dancing, they were actually quite smug about it. Thinking back on it now, everyone felt embarrassed and ashamed, and they wanted to find a hole in the ground to squeeze themselves into.
"Team Xiu..."
Hearing Zhou Tong's voice, Shen Xiu pulled his thoughts back and looked up at the team members.
Seeing that everyone was looking at him, Shen Xiu glanced at the time and was slightly surprised.
In less than five minutes, everyone had finished speaking!
During the few seconds of silence when Shen Xiu raised his head, stood up and looked at them, everyone felt even more uneasy.
Sure enough, they all guessed right. Shen Xiu looked at them with a chilly look in his eyes, and pursed his lips without saying a word. It was obvious that he was angry.
Shen Xiu withdrew his gaze from the wall clock behind the team members and said, "Now, you all understand where the problem lies."
Although it was embarrassing, everyone nodded seriously and admitted: "I understand."
Shen Xiu breathed a sigh of relief, he knew that practice makes perfect!
Look, he doesn't even have to say a lot and risk getting socially embarrassed by stuttering. Everyone can find the key to the problem by just going through it once.
Shen Xiu nodded appreciatively: "Very good."
Team members: Are you...making fun of them?
Woo woo woo, they really know they are wrong!
Chen Xiu told his friends about his observations: "I'm sure you've noticed that although Ke Zian and Zhou Tong don't have the best moves, they dance the least weird and make people feel the most comfortable."
Ke Zian had never thought that even though he was so bad at dancing, there would be a day when he would be praised for his dancing skills. He couldn't help but smiled shyly, as if he was embarrassed to be praised.
Zhou Tong, who was also suddenly called out by Chen Xiu, was stunned for a moment, but he quickly figured out the reason and silently glanced at Ke Zian.
After spending a long time together, Zhou Tong realized that the facial lines of him and Ke Zian were not very tough, but rather soft, which made them more refreshing than other trainees.
More importantly, he and Ke Zian had personality problems. He was a crybaby, while Ke Zian was soft-hearted and afraid of being criticized. He never felt comfortable rejecting others and always believed what others said.
To put it bluntly, both of them have some inferiority complex and are not very confident.
In this case, their lack of confidence will be revealed in their singing and dancing.
No matter what words I sing or what movements I make, I will unconsciously be cautious and serious, for fear of making mistakes. I don't even think about whether my movements are cool or whether my eyes are cool.
As the saying goes, being handsome without knowing it is pleasing to the eye. Being handsome and aware of it, and trying hard to show what you think is a cool look or action, will only look awkward and greasy in the eyes of others.
In a situation where everyone is "shining with confidence" and "thinking they are the most handsome", their inferiority and caution stand in stark contrast to everyone else.
That’s why Captain Xiu praised them, not because they danced really well, but because they gave people a refreshing feeling.
Zhou Tong wanted to whisper to Ke Zian not to be proud, but when he turned his head to see Ke Zian's shy smile, the words did not come out.
Just because of Ke Zian's timid look of joy, pride? Impossible, absolutely impossible!
Except for Ke Zian and Zhou Tong, everyone else looked down at the floor in shame. During the first practice, they were all busy showing off, focusing only on themselves and not others. They were only thinking about which angle would make them look the most handsome when facing the stage, and what postures and movements would be the most eye-catching.
Look at others? It didn't exist at all. At that time, they only had themselves in their eyes.
Shen Xiu must be speechless.
[Today is another day where I can’t understand how the various practice rooms are operating. 】
[Looking at everyone's humble attitude, is Master Xiu teaching them some secret? 】
[Heh, can I say that my mind is now filled with the weird image of a cat with its arms outstretched jumping around mechanically? The program team is really good at it! 】
[Not only that, there are also those devilish happyhappy sounds...]
Judging from everyone's expressions, Shen Xiu thought they all understood the crux of the matter, and if they jumped again, there shouldn't be any major problems.
Then he said, "Well, let's start the third practice."
After the silent rectification, everyone was obviously not as impatient as before, and nodded with serious expressions on their faces.
"good!"
Five minutes later, the third practice session was over.
Chen Xiu was standing at the very front. When he heard the ending of the song, he slowed down his movements, stood up straight and stared at the floor, his slightly lowered eyes full of confusion.
Is there something wrong with your practice method? Or...the effect of looking at and jumping between each other is not direct enough?
Sure enough, it still depends on words! He shouldn't have been lazy and afraid to speak in the first place!
Meditation and self-reflection.
After it was over, Chen Xiu didn't speak for a full minute. The team members looked at the silent Chen Xiu with cautious eyes through the large floor-length dance mirror in front of them.
Obviously, without Chen Xiu saying anything, they could feel that the third round of training was still very bad.
Although Chen Xiu didn't say anything, everyone could feel this fact more directly from the low pressure emanating from Chen Xiu at this moment.
They are just too bad!
They also didn't expect that they, who had no problems in songwriting, composing and choreography, would fail here.
They still held Shen Xiu back after all.
Feeling guilty, everyone remained silent.
After reflecting and figuring things out, Chen Xiu raised his eyes and met the panicked gazes of his teammates behind him in the mirror.
Shen Xiu: “…”
Oops, I was so busy thinking after I finished dancing that I didn't have time to change my movements. It really looks weird standing in front of the mirror with my body stiff.
Look, his teammates are looking at him with weird eyes.
But his teammates were pretty nice people. They were afraid that he would be embarrassed, so when they saw him come to his senses, they looked away and pretended not to see it.
"Ahem..." Chen Xiu turned around to face everyone, no longer looking at the mirror, clenched his fist and placed it beside his mouth, clearing his throat to ease the embarrassment: "The fourth time, I'll watch you dance."
He just couldn't believe that he couldn't correct them one by one!
The team members were already feeling guilty, and when they saw Chen Xiu facing them and staring at them while they were dancing, they suddenly felt a lot of pressure.
But he didn't dare to say anything, and could only timidly respond: "...Yeah."
Wow, it must be because their performance was so rubbish that Shen Xiu kept giving him the cold shoulder. Now the big devil Xiu is about to come online!
In an instant, everyone recalled the fear they had once felt when they were collectively guided by the Great Demon Lord Xiu, and shuddered unconsciously.
Chen Xiu noticed that his friends suddenly shivered, frowned and looked at everyone with squinted eyes in confusion, and asked with concern: "Are you cold?"
Everyone saw Shen Xiu's eyes suddenly narrowed, and then heard the word "cold" with a full threat, and shook their heads in unison: "No, no, no, not cold!"
Shen Xiu suggested: "Should we turn up the temperature of the air conditioner?"
The air conditioning temperature in the practice room is controlled by the program team, and is usually around 25 degrees. Chen Xiu doesn't feel cold. If everyone feels cold, you can turn it up a little bit.
"No, no!" Everyone still refused.
Shen Xiu's words may seem ordinary, but if you think about it carefully, he must be extremely disappointed with them, but he is restraining himself from getting angry with them, and is being sarcastic to them!
"In that case, let's get started."
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief: "Well, let's start!"
No matter what Chen Xiu does, he hopes to do his best.
Afraid that everyone would be angry later, Shen Xiu gave a precautionary shot in advance: "From now on, be mentally prepared."
Team members: “!”
Shen Xiu’s serious expression and cold eyes, is this a threat? It must be!
"......OK."
Obedient and cooperative teammates, satisfied!
With a happy mood, Chen Xiu walked towards the multimedia equipment table, because during the fourth training, in order to pause the music and correct everyone's movements and expressions one by one, he had to stand in front of the multimedia equipment table so that he could click to play music at any time.
At the beginning of the fourth time, the familiar melody sounded in the practice room...
At the seventh second, Shen Xiu pressed the music pause button.
The moment the music paused, no one dared to breathe, and looked at Shen Xiu nervously.
Then, everyone heard Shen Xiu's cold voice ringing in the quiet classroom.
"Ke Zian, what are you looking at?"
He arranged Ke Zian to sing the first part of the main song because Ke Zian has a clean and unique voice and a timid and innocent appearance, making him look like a pitiful little boy.
With a little training, Ke Zian can not only bring the audience into a state of timid sorrow with just one voice, but also use his pitiful appearance to make the audience empathize with the emotions conveyed in the song.
But...the guilty wandering eyes do not represent the unspeakable pain in the song!
When his name was called, Ke Zian straightened his back and stood as obediently as a primary school student: "Yes..."
Shen Xiu: "Is that sadness?"
Before Ke Zian could finish his words, he heard the cold voice of Shen Xiu giving orders. He was not good at rejecting others, so he immediately widened his eyes and stared at Shen Xiu.
Facing Shen Xiu's cold and indifferent eyes, Ke Zian swallowed nervously, not daring to look away. He was so nervous that he could hear the sound of his own heart pounding.
Chen Xiu: “…” This look… makes me a little scared.
Chen Xiu's brain froze for two seconds after being stared at by Ke Zian, before he gradually recovered.
After recovering from the shock, Chen Xiu organized his words in his mind: "Raise your eyes slowly while singing, your eyes should be filled with sorrow, but you cannot shed tears. You should keep the tears in your eyes without them falling. Can you do it?"
Am I...filming a movie? Ke Zian was in a trance.
But this was already his second time working with Shen Xiu, and he knew that Shen Xiu was so demanding of perfection, and every movement and every look had to be done to perfection.
Although Ke Zian was flustered, he was very serious and nodded: "I will try my best."
The second time, at the seventh second, although Ke Zian's eyes still had some problems, Shen Xiu thought about it and decided to talk about it next time and continue to correct other friends...
"Ye Cheng, why did you wink suddenly?"
When he turned his head and blinked deliberately, Shen Xiu put himself into the audience's perspective. It looked weird, as if he had seen a boy shooting out of thin air in high school. There was clearly no basket, and this action could even be seen in the classroom after class.
Why do we need to do the pitching action? Shen Xiu still couldn't figure it out.
Ye Cheng: ...Because when I added this dance move, the other person winked, and the effect seemed very good, so he learned it...
"Song Junying, why did you suddenly smile when you turned around to look at the stage?"
Song Joon-young: Because he looks very handsome with a devilish smile...
"No, Xia Wenhao, why have you become so timid? Don't move at all. Your movements can be like your lyrics. If the song blows you away but you don't, that won't work."
"The eyes should be fiery, not hooky."
"Gao Yongshi, don't twist like that. It's scary. You're as soft as noodles. I have more power in rowing than you."
With Shen Xiu explaining earnestly again and again, the fourth time did not end until half an hour later.
Every time before speaking for too long, Chen Xiu had to stop and organize his words in his mind for a few seconds. Therefore, after finishing the fourth round of Chen Xiu, he was not only mentally tired, but also nervous.
Anyone who faces the friends who have been talked to one-sidedly for half an hour will be so embarrassed that they dare not even look into each other's eyes.
Chen Xiu didn't even know what to say. He glanced at the water dispenser and instantly found a way to save himself.
He wants to drink water to relieve this embarrassment! After all…when you are nervous, drink more cold water.
"Rest." After saying these two words hurriedly, Shen Xiu went straight to the water dispenser on the table in the corner.
After speaking harshly to everyone for half an hour, he was too embarrassed to face everyone!
I guess no one wants to see this face of his, right?
For his own good and that of his friends, he should drink a few more glasses of water with his back to everyone.
Shen Xiu spoke for half an hour on the three-and-a-half-minute stage. In the end, he coldly dropped two words and went to drink water with a cold air all over his body. The team members had to think more.
Shen Xiu must have been severely pissed off by them this time.
Woohoo, damn them, why can't they control their impetuous hearts? When they sing and dance, they subconsciously think that their movements must be so handsome and cool, and all these nonsense...
Could it be... that the lyrics are too explosive and the dance moves are too cool?
Everyone was thinking about it, but facing Shen Xiu's serious expression, especially when Shen Xiu would pause for a second or two with a sullen face before correcting them, everyone was panicked and secretly glanced at Shen Xiu's back, but dared not say anything.
After all, it was Shen Xiu who was so angry with them that he drank five glasses of ice water in one breath, which showed that he was really angry.
Of course, before the training, the team members thought that Shen Xiu's request that they finish all matters concerning the music repertoire in one day was an act of the devil.
But after the fourth round of training just now, they finally understood what a real Great Demon King Xiu was.
When Chen Xiu scolded people with a cold face, he was really strict and venomous!
[This production crew is really cool. They can even move the code after blurring it. This time the code is all below the trainees' necks. They are willing to show us the expressions above the neck. I really don't know whether to laugh or cry. 】
[Maybe...crying with laughter?] 】
[Looking at the expressions of the team members... the cold-blooded and ruthless demon, the Demon King Xiu has arrived? 】
[Shh, don't talk, he will find out...]
[I can feel the fear of the team members through the screen hahahaha seeing them like this makes me want to laugh, I'm so bad but I'm so happy hahaha]
At the same time, the program team responsible for editing is backstage.
Shi Buwen pushed open the door of the editing room. The assistant director saw him and hurried forward: "Director Shi."
Shi Buwen got straight to the point: "Have you edited everything according to my requirements?"
The assistant director nodded: "It has been edited, but......"
"Director Shi, are you really not going to reconsider this? If we release it like this, what if the audience is persuaded to quit after watching the advance training video for the second public performance?"
This time, the assistant director really didn't understand what Director Shi was thinking.
When editing, the staff all made the classic expression of "old man on the subway looking at his phone" while editing.
If I release this, I’ll lose followers, right?
Are there any audiences willing to watch the second public performance? On the other hand, is it certain that this won’t become black material once it is released?
"Tsk." Shi Buwen said, "It seems you don't know us young people well enough."
Young people like him are rebellious and will not submit to anyone. They are so rebellious that when they see the ghost pictures are blocked, even if someone reminds them not to look at them, they just don't believe it and just want to search for it and take a look for themselves.
Although... after watching it, you will regret it and curse yourself for being so naughty.
But it doesn’t matter, they will dare to do it again next time!
"Now that you've finished editing it, release it now, and remember to buy a trending search."
After saying that, Shi Buwen turned and left. After walking a few steps, he seemed to remember something and turned back to advise, "Don't spend too much money. I'm very poor, and our production team is also poor. Just buy the cheapest trending spot."
He is confident that all hot topics about the program group will jump up on their own.
Assistant Director:......6.
He is ignorant and has never seen anyone buying "black hot searches" for himself.
Besides...which production team is so poor that they would spend millions to hold a banquet for the trainees? It's totally off the mark!
Although the assistant director complained, he acted quickly and released the videos edited by each group, and bought the cheapest hot search position at the same time.
There are so many famous scenes in "Young Man Is Invincible" that once the video was released, the hot searches rose even faster.
A large number of comments about hot searches soon appeared in the live broadcast room.
[I can guarantee that anyone who hasn’t seen it will regret it for the rest of their life----Video link]
[Click to watch the stunning second public performance ---- video link]
[I love the program crew!] Heart (Eh? Why is what you pulled out a knife?)]
[Judgment is back, and I can only describe it in two words: absolutely beautiful! My eyes seemed to be cleansed by the soul! (dog head dog head dog head)]
I swear that I will never eat fried rice cakes again in the next two months! ! !
