Chapter 87 The lyricist who shocked the whole audience
the night before the recording of the eighth episode of "The Birth of a Group".
In the first class dormitory.
Zhang Long and Li Zhenzhen were practicing songs for tomorrow's competition when suddenly the cell phone on the coffee table rang. It was Guo Jiahe calling.
Zhang Long answered the call and pressed the hands-free button.
"Hey, Brother Guo."
"I played the song you're going to perform for the competition to the company, and the company thinks it's pretty good. You two can post a Weibo post to build momentum for tomorrow's competition and draw attention to this song. The company will release it for you."
"Okay, got it, thank you Brother Guo!"
After hanging up the phone, Zhang Long and Li Zhenzhen hugged each other excitedly.
"Great! This song has been recognized by the company!"
"Baby, are we going to become famous because of this song?"
"I'll be content if I can become a little famous because of this song. I'll post it on Weibo now!"
"good."
Zhang Long picked up his phone, thought about it for a while, and then posted a humble Weibo post.
[The song I will be singing tomorrow night is a collaboration between me and a famous lyricist. I believe the song will give everyone a good audio-visual experience.]
After he acted too arrogantly last time and was severely slapped in the face by "Mountain and River Map", he changed his bad habits and stopped being overly ostentatious before he accomplishes something.
Li Zhenzhen also posted a Weibo at the same time.
[Will you be the brightest star on the stage tomorrow night? ]
The combined number of fans of the two accounts exceeds 500,000, and the Weibo post attracted the attention of fans.
"Working with a famous lyricist? Which lyricist would it be?"
"They are still contestants. They are probably second-tier lyricists. No first-tier lyricist would write lyrics for a fledgling newcomer."
"I agree. Ming Ming was just praising the lyricist he collaborated with. You can't just say that I collaborated with a second- or third-tier lyricist, hahaha."
"They never promoted it before the game, so they must be very confident this time. I am really looking forward to it!"
…
On the other side, in the first class dormitory.
"Brother Lin, Pigeon, we have brought you some goodies!"
Dong Chen and Ji Yu pushed the door open and walked in, holding a bag in their hands.
Lin Zhixing and Song Ge were sitting on the sofa watching TV. They had almost finished practicing the song, so they just needed to relax before the game and have a good sleep at night.
I was not surprised at their sudden visit. They have been hanging out together every day recently. Anyone who pushes the door open without knocking must be them.
"Hey, what good stuff did you bring?"
Song Ge smiled and stood up to take it. He took the bag and took a look. Inside was a bag of large white pears. "You guys sit down. I'll go wash them now."
"Please, pigeon."
Dong Chen and Ji Yu sat next to Lin Zhixing with a smile.
Lin Zhixing saw that Song Ge took out fruit from the bag, turned his head and asked curiously: "Why did you suddenly think of giving me fruit?"
Dong Chen's lips trembled, and he said, "Well, we may have to leave this stage tomorrow. I'm sending you two some pears and saying goodbye to you two!"
Lin Zhixing curled his lips after hearing this and said, "I don't dare to eat this pear. I'm afraid that after I eat it, I will leave this stage."
"Don't listen to his nonsense!"
Ji Yu glared at Dong Chen and explained, "It was not easy for us to buy these pears. Pears can clear the lungs and remove phlegm, and are also good for the throat. Eat some tonight and tomorrow."
"Okay, thank you for your concern."
Lin Zhixing smiled and nodded.
Dong Chen pointed at the bag and said, "Brother Lin, don't underestimate it. A famous Peking Opera artist wrote in his autobiography that he often put pear slices in his mouth when he went to sleep at night. When he woke up the next day, the pear slices were black. They were caused by lung fire. Why don't you try it tonight?"
Lin Zhixing raised his eyes, thought for a moment, and nodded, "Okay, but you have to do me a favor. I'm grinding my teeth while I sleep, so you have to keep the pear slices by my side."
"Forget it, I'm afraid this bag of pears won't be enough, and I'll need two more pounds of cakes."
"I'll screw you!"
Lin Zhixing smiled and raised his hand to punch Dong Chen. After spending these days together, their relationship became more and more familiar. They would never joke like this with each other before.
"Stop making trouble, stop making trouble."
Dong Chen smiled and waved his hand, took out his cell phone from his pocket, opened Weibo and showed it to Lin Zhixing.
[Handsome Combination: We had bad luck last time, please support us this time, we will definitely make it to the top four.]
"Brother Lin, please post a Weibo to drum up votes. Seven out of the eight groups of contestants have already started to build momentum for tomorrow's competition. Please post one too."
Ji Yu also advised, "Yes, Brother Lin, you should post one too. You have so many fans, it would be a shame if you don't use them."
What they said is true. The style of the songs in tomorrow's competition has changed and will not attract older fans, so the votes may drop significantly.
"Listen to people's advice and eat a full meal, then I'll send one too."
Lin Zhixing opened the Weibo, thought for a while, and typed a line of words.
[My partner and I will try a song with a different style than before in tomorrow night’s competition. We are not confident enough and are afraid of being ranked last. We hope you will support us and cast your precious votes! ]
The Weibo post also sparked heated discussions among netizens.
"Oh, it's a song with a different style from the previous ones. I'm looking forward to it."
"Oh yeah, I'm scared now. I'm here to beg for votes, hahaha!"
"From the tone of voice, it seems like he's not very good at the song. It's a bit bold to change the style in the semi-finals!"
"Look at the handsome men and pretty women in the same class, they are so confident! Look at you, you have no confidence at all, how can you still win?"
…
…
On the day of recording the eighth episode of "The Birth of a Group", ten minutes before the start of the show.
The contestants have all taken their seats in the contestant seats, and each of them has a serious look on their face because tonight's game is particularly important.
Eight groups of contestants will compete tonight to determine the top four, which come with many benefits.
In addition to the benefits of being signed by three major record companies, the program team also rented the Hong Kong Coliseum. After the show ends, the top four contestants will hold a debut concert together at the Hong Kong Coliseum.
Every singer has dreamed of holding a concert, but this dream is unattainable for 95% of singers, unless they are extremely talented and have extremely supportive fans, otherwise they simply cannot afford it.
Even though he spent a lot of money to open the concert himself, the singer himself felt embarrassed looking at the sparse audience below the stage.
After participating in this program and making it to the top four, the program team directly helped many singers realize their dreams that have never been realized in their entire lives. The temptation is quite great.
…
…
Eight o'clock in the evening.
After a start gesture from the on-site director, the live recording of the eighth episode of "The Birth of a Group" officially began.
The five mentors appeared one by one amid the enthusiastic applause and screams of the audience, and the screen was filled with comments in the live broadcast room.
"First, the sofa!"
"Sunshine Youth Group, you are the best!"
"Everyone, shout slogans!"
"The birth of a group cannot be without Oh Ye-ge, just like pancakes cannot be without green onions!"
…
"Good evening, audience friends, welcome to watch the music talent show "The Birth of a Group" sponsored by Penguin Live and Penguin Video..."
After a passionate introduction by the host, the camera turned to the remaining eight groups of contestants.
Except for the Sunshine Boys and the talented couple who had smiles on their faces, the rest of the contestants all had their own thoughts.
"Okay, I declare that the eighth round of competition will begin now. Which group will be the first to perform tonight? Everyone, please look at the stage screen!"
Following the host's shout, the camera turned to the stage screen.
three.
two.
one.
The countdown ended and the information of the contestants who were about to appear appeared on the screen.
[Handsome combination]
Amidst warm applause, three handsome young men in suits waved and walked onto the stage.
However……
This group had high hopes and was expected to make it to Class 1 in the last episode, but the songs they sang were mediocre. Although they fit the theme of regret, they did not move the audience.
The three returned to the contestant seat in disappointment.
"The group that almost stole our spot last time performed pretty badly this time."
Zhang Long shrugged his shoulders and spoke to his girlfriend beside him in a mocking tone.
Li Zhenzhen snorted coldly, "Yesterday, I posted a Weibo to assure my fans that I almost made it to Class 1 last time, and I will definitely make it this time. They thought that the two of us who didn't perform well last time would be eliminated. They also made a mistake in choosing us."
Zhang Long chuckled, and said with a smile on his face, "They will be able to see the difference in a while."
The contestants left the stage and the competition continued, the host pointed to the big screen.
"Thank you for the wonderful performance by the Handsome Band. Which band will perform next? Please look at the big screen!"
three.
two.
one.
As the countdown ended, information about the upcoming contestants appeared on the screen.
[Unreachable]
【A handsome man and a beautiful woman】
【Lyrics: Xiao Shiyi Niang】
【Composer: Zhang Long】
【Arranger: Zhang Long】
"???"
See the players' appearance information on the screen.
The audience, contestants, and mentors, everyone was stunned.
I got stuck on this lyric. I couldn't think of any other words to compare it with. I searched Tik Tok for a long time and didn't finish writing it... I'm really ashamed
