Chapter 124 Song Ge is questioned
While everyone was admiring Song Ge's ability.
In the singers' waiting room, the photographer focused the camera on the first place performer, national team contestant "Wang Jiawei".
The impression she gave was that she didn't seem to care about anything, not even how her opponents sang. She just sat in her seat very honestly with an indifferent look on her face.
Coming here feels like going to work. You sit here until you come on stage to sing a song and then go home.
She never takes the initiative to chat with other contestants, and she is not very good at communicating when others approach her. She often confides in them until the topic dies down. As time goes by, no contestant is willing to chat with her.
The same goes for the program team. He just answered the questions when they were asked, but did not follow the program team's requirement to serve as a supporting actor for other singers at the appropriate time to increase the program effect.
Netizens saw that she sat there in silence, isolated in herself, and didn't even look up at the real-time game on the screen. This attitude caused dissatisfaction among some netizens.
Some netizens said that she was too arrogant, saying that she thought other singers were not good enough and did not take other singers seriously.
But in the face of these rumors, she never explained, and it is still the same in this issue.
But after she finished singing "Our Love", the camera captured her facial expression. Wang Jiawei actually slowly raised her head and looked at the screen with an interested look.
It was just this tiny little action, which clearly said nothing, yet seemed to say everything.
The effect was so effective that it can be said that it exceeded Zhao Weiwei's verbal praise.
Netizens in the live broadcast room analyzed this little action, and barrages of comments filled the screen.
"Xiao Song is amazing. Her high notes attracted the attention of the big devil!"
"Does the Great Demon King regard her as his opponent?"
"Yo, there's someone on the show that the Big Devil is interested in. I'm kind of looking forward to this showdown."
…
…
On the gorgeous stage.
The applause from the audience was deafening and lasted for a long time. The audience fully affirmed the song and the singer with their applause.
Compared with the previous show, the lyricist and composer judge Huang Xiao did not press the button to add votes in this show.
He felt that although this song was good, it was not as good as the previous one, and it did not excite him enough to press the button immediately.
He decided to wait and see today, until he had listened to all the songs, and then he would have time to use the right to add votes.
Although the other two special judges were impressed by Song Ge's high notes after listening to the song, they did not immediately use their right to add votes. After all, there were still contestants from the national team who had not sung on this stage.
"Okay, thank you Fengqi Wutong for your wonderful performance. I believe everyone is as unsatisfied as I am..."
As the host Lin Zhixing, I praised myself for not blushing or getting nervous, which made many audiences laugh. Amid applause, Song Ge bowed deeply and left the stage.
It was a bit messy for two people to host the show together, and the announcement session after the opening was monopolized by Lin Zhixing alone.
"Now, please invite the surprise singer to come on stage to sing. Who will this surprise singer be? Everyone, please watch the VCR on the screen!"
The screen in the center of the stage lights up.
The audience was surprised when the bunny-masked singer took off her mask.
The one who is about to perform is Zhou Zhou, a folk singer who became very popular half a year ago. Her folk song is a very popular hit song on the short video platform and is often used as a background music. It is so exaggerated that you can hear the song after watching 30 videos.
Many viewers were surprised that the King of Singers program team invited her.
Complaints have already been heard in the live broadcast room. Some people think that inviting an internet celebrity singer to this stage is a bit of a lowering of the level, but in fact, the program team is just focusing on the popularity of the short video.
While everyone was focusing on the video VCR, Lin Zhixing's eyes fell on the stage floor.
At the location where Song Ge had just sung, a golden spherical light appeared on the floor, flashing and eye-catching.
A new pigeon egg!
Lin Zhixing wanted to reach out and touch it, but he had no chance at all. The place was far away from where he was standing, and he couldn't go around to pick it up during the live broadcast.
I can only give up temporarily and leave the stage.
It was heartbreaking to see the fragments on the stage at the entrance of the passage. I wonder if there is a time limit for the dropped attribute fragments. It would be really heartbreaking if they disappeared within a few minutes.
Folk singer Zhou Zhou took to the stage with a guitar on her back and sang one of her popular songs in a short video.
However, the effect was not satisfactory. It was definitely a dull audience. There was a big difference between her singing voice and the edited song. The breathing sound was particularly obvious, which disappointed the audience.
"Are all internet celebrity singers masters of tuning? Why are their live versions so rubbish!"
"That's all you can do to surprise a singer? How dare you?"
The live broadcast room was filled with negative comments, and the number of online users dropped drastically, which made Hong Bo's blood pressure rise.
Zhao Weiwei feels very happy. Now Fengqi Wutong has secured half of her place. If she is not at the bottom in the final ranking, she will be able to stay on this stage.
Lin Zhixing has been observing secretly.
This golden glowing object is indeed only visible to oneself, and from the current point of view, it has existed for quite a long time.
The song is over.
Lin Zhixing took to the stage again to announce the show.
While announcing the show, he walked deliberately to the side of the golden light and gently touched it with his shoe.
At the moment when it was about to touch, the golden light turned into a golden stream of light and penetrated into his body from the tip of his toes.
【bite!】
[Singing skills (high notes) proficiency +5 points. ]
[Current: High B (13/50). ]
The system prompt sounded in my mind.
Lin Zhixing nodded slightly, from this it can be confirmed that the attribute fragments do not need to be touched with hands, but can be touched by any part of the body.
…
On the stage, you finish your song and I take the stage.
After the lyrical singer Sun Haoan finished singing, a "green triangle" luminous object dropped.
【bite!】
[Singing skills (emotion) proficiency +3 points. ]
【Current: Emotion C (8/10). 】
After Lin Zhixing picked it up, his emotional use in singing was improved.
His love songs are indeed very infectious, and his strength is to convey emotional appeal through singing.
…
【bite!】
[Singing skills (breathing) proficiency +2 points. ]
【Current: Breathing Control B (0/50). 】
After finishing his performance, Taicheng rapper Pan Shuai dropped a "red square" luminous object.
After Lin Zhixing picked it up, his breathing control when singing songs improved.
Although Pan Shuai raps very fast, you can hardly hear his breathing during the performance, which is very impressive.
…
After that, only the high-pitched fragments of the big devil "Wang Jiawei" were picked up.
[Singing skills (high notes) proficiency +3 points. ]
[Current: High B (16/50). ]
Lin Zhixing gained a lot from this stage today, and he felt great in that he improved himself secretly.
The last singer to appear in this competition was a surprise singer, and his surprise target was the oldest singer, Su Xin. However, Su Xin did not fail today. After diligent practice, his voice recovered and brought a good audio-visual experience to the audience.
After the surprise singer finished singing, all the singing in the first episode (Part 2) of "I Am the King of Singers" came to an end, and it was time for the exciting voting session.
As the five hundred judges voted, the stage scene shifted to the singer's lounge.
"Xiao Lin and Xiao Song, you guys performed so well today, it really surprised me!"
Zhao Weiwei did not hesitate to praise them both and assured them that they would definitely stay on this stage.
Most of the other singers were also chatting. Compared to the newbies who were extremely nervous while waiting on the audition stage, these experienced singers did not show any nervousness at all. They were chatting and laughing and were very confident in themselves.
About five minutes passed.
“Thank you for your hard work in singing!”
The program director Hong Bo came to the singer's waiting room with an envelope.
The singers stopped talking and waited for the director to announce the rankings, and the barrage in the live broadcast room also started to make predictions.
As usual, after some advertising words, Hong Bo mysteriously opened the envelope and announced: "Let me first tell you the vote counts for the competing singers and surprise singers!"
Compared to the previous episode where he was extremely nervous, Lin Zhixing was very calm this time. If he lost based on his performance just now, there would definitely be some shady dealings going on.
"There were two duels. I'll talk about Su Xin and Zhang Ye first. We collected 500 votes in total, of which Su Xin received 350 votes and Zhang Ye received 150 votes. Zhang Ye's surprise attack failed."
"In the duel between Zhou Zhou and Feng Qi Wu Tong, there were 500 votes from the judges. Feng Qi Wu Tong received 400 votes and Zhou Zhou received 100 votes. Judge Huang Xiao used the right to increase the vote for Feng Qi Wu Tong. After adding up, their total votes were 410. Zhou Zhou's surprise attack failed!"
The two surprise singers were defeated at the same time, and they could not hide the disappointment on their faces.
As for the extra votes from the other two special judges, Lu Liangshan still gave it to Wang Jiawei, and Wei Donglin gave it to Guo Jiahe just like last time.
Wang Jiawei's strength is unquestionable, and Guo Jiahe's two consecutive votes made Lin Zhixing feel very strange.
"Now I will announce this issue's ranking!"
Hong Bo cleared his throat and said, "Nan Fangkai ranked eighth, Su Xin ranked seventh, Pan Shuai ranked sixth, Feng Qi Wutong ranked fifth, Sun Haoan ranked fourth, Ku Miao ranked third, Guo Jiahe ranked second, and Wang Jiawei ranked first!"
Fifth place? Lin Zhixing and Song Ge looked at each other and were both very surprised. They expected their score to be higher than Su Xin, but they didn't expect it to be one place higher than expected.
"Congratulations on staying on this stage!"
Zhao Weiwei gave a thumbs up and offered her congratulations with a smile.
I still lost! Nan Fangkai sighed. Although he was reluctant to leave this stage, he had to face the reality.
"Oh!"
Guo Jiahe pursed his lips, looked at the singers around him, and thought to himself: "Too weak, too weak, it's really shameful that a newcomer who just debuted can get fifth place!"
After hearing the results, the live broadcast room was filled with comments.
"As expected of the Great Devil, he has won the first place for two consecutive periods. That's awesome!"
"Great, I'll see Brother Oh Ye again in the next episode!"
"I want to laugh. Oh Yeah and Xiao Song singing together = lose. Oh Yeah, just slacking off and Xiao Song performing alone = advance."
"I've actually found a pattern. I'll rely on this to judge the next issue!"
…
After the rankings were announced and Hong Bo gave his closing remarks, the recording of the first episode (Part 2) of "I Am the King of Singers" officially ended.
Out of the singer's waiting room, into the corridor.
"Pigeon, I didn't realize you were hiding something from me! You weren't this tall when we were practicing!"
Lin Zhixing nudged Song Ge beside him with his shoulder and asked quietly.
Song Ge glanced at him and said, "It's really exhausting to sing like that during practice!"
That's true. Even very professional concerts will not hold more than five shows in the same place.
Even if you use your voice scientifically, excessive intensity will affect your throat, so it is better to protect it more in daily life.
"But I did take it a little more seriously today."
Song Ge frowned and snorted, "Those surprise singers are too bullying. They picked on the two of us. We must let them know that we are not easy to mess with!"
Lin Zhixing was very pleased with these words and smiled.
She is no longer a little white dove that is easy to bully. I believe that today's stage performance will have a certain deterrent effect, and the singers in the next episode will think twice before making surprise attacks.
"By the way, when you sang the high notes today, did you use the secret technique I told you about before?"
Lin Zhixing asked curiously.
"No! I'm not used to it!"
Song Ge rolled his eyes and quickened his pace.
"So when are you going to use this trick?"
“When you meet a singer you can’t beat, you can talk about it when you need to fight!”
"All right."
【bite!】
[The system task has been completed at the simple difficulty level. Congratulations to the host for obtaining the song "Torment"! ]
The system prompt sounded in my mind as my memory was retrieved.
"Heart-beat!"
The melody echoed in his ears, Lin Zhixing frowned, and his heart began to beat wildly.
Oh my god!
This song is too difficult.
The singer of the song is Li Jiawei, who was nicknamed "Iron Lung" by netizens. She once performed as a guest singer in "I Am a Singer" and her live version was extremely shocking.
Lin Zhixing really liked this female singer, but later he heard that she had returned to her old job as a real estate agent...
I was shocked when I found out about it, and at the same time I understood a truth.
Music is really expensive. It is difficult to become popular without support, and it is almost impossible to defeat capital with talent.
The most famous thing about this song "Torment" is that it made JJ Lin, who is known as the walking CD, get so upset when he was singing it with Li Jiawei that he almost had to go back to inherit the family property.
The contrast between the look of contempt when he first appeared, the slight panic after he realized he was taller, and the look at the end that hinted at Li Jiawei to ask for help, made netizens laugh so hard.
For Song Ge, this song can once again showcase her high-pitched advantage and shock everyone a little more.
But……
The original key of this song sung by Walking CD has been messed up. Can I sing this song? …
…
Lin Zhixing, who had just returned to his room after finishing his meal in the hotel restaurant, received a call from Zhang Sihui.
"Hello, Sister Hui."
"Congratulations, Xiaolin, you won the fifth place in the first round. Brother Cong watched the whole live broadcast and is very satisfied with you!"
“I’ll try to keep it going!”
"Okay, Brother Cong said that if you want to relax, you can play in Shanghai for two days, but don't forget Weibo Night in five days. There are plans there, so come back at least two days in advance!"
"Yeah, okay."
Things keep happening one after another!
After hanging up the phone, Lin Zhixing lay on the bed and opened Weibo.
With the blessing of super popularity, topics about "I Am the King of Singers" are still among the top searches.
As he was scrolling through the search results, he saw a trending search about himself, which made him very angry.
[The showmanship is too much and the flavor of the song is lost. 】
The person who posted on Weibo was not someone else, but the rapper "Zhao Fan" who had disgusted him many times, from disgusting "Above the Moon" to "The Most Dazzling National Style", and he started to praise "Mountain and River Map" as soon as it was released.
He gave me the nickname "Emperor of Rap on Earth" and even called me to say he wanted to discuss cooperation. After being rejected, he changed his face and deleted the previous Weibo post praising me. It was disgusting.
I thought the show "The Birth of a Group" was over and I wouldn't be disgusted by it anymore, but I didn't expect them to come and take advantage of the popularity of the new show "I Am the King of Singers".
He really has no shame at all!
When I opened the comment section, I saw other rappers agreeing with me. They really joined forces to make me feel disgusted. They really deserve to be punished.
However, there were a few popular comments, which made Lin Zhixing feel relieved.
"She may indeed be more technically outstanding, but she is not all about technique as some people say. I was touched when I listened to her songs."
"Isn't it her extraordinary skills that make a singer stand out? I really don't understand the mentality of those who criticize her for showing off her skills. It makes me laugh."
"Why show off? First, my skills are mature and I can show off. Many other singers are lucky enough to be able to complete the song live, and some even have to lower the pitch."
"Second, people cherish every stage they get. Many people just lack a stage. You are not her, and you don't know what she paid for this stage. If it were you, wouldn't you go all out and use everything? If you don't use it, you just don't have it. If you have it, why can't you use it?"
…
Just after getting a good result, annoying things happened and Lin Zhixing wanted to curse.
Many singers have been questioned about their skills being more important than their emotions. In recent years, the singer who has been questioned the most on the Internet is "Sister Xiaoyun".
He sang the song "Never Left" and competed with Lin Zhixuan. His powerful singing skills were astonishing, but he was still questioned.
Including Lin Zhixuan, who was competing against her, was also questioned on the short video platform for having singing skills but no emotions, and he even talked about this in a variety show.
Then a passage leaked on the Internet.
——As we all know, high notes = no emotion.
How should I respond? Lin Zhixing was just thinking about it when the phone rang again. It was an unfamiliar number.
"Hello."
"Xiao Lin, I'm Ji Lei. Please come to Room 503 now. I have something to discuss with you."
"Okay, Director Ji, I'll be there right away!"
It was already past nine in the evening. What was the hurry? Lin Zhixing put on his shoes, left the room, and took the elevator to Room 503.
"Come in!"
When I pushed the door open, I saw that Ji Lei was not alone in the room. Director Hong Bo was also there. The two of them were chatting while drinking tea.
"Hello Director Ji, Hello Director Hong!"
"Okay, okay, Xiaolin, come and sit down!"
Lin Zhixing greeted them and was called to sit next to them.
"Xiao Lin, you're awesome! I have to thank you because Director Hong owes me a big meal!" Ji Lei smiled and gave a thumbs up.
"Thank you for the compliment. I'm lucky." Lin Zhixing smiled and waved his hand.
After a few pleasantries, Hong Bo said bluntly: "It's so late, and recording is tiring, so I won't keep you in suspense. I'm here to discuss cooperation. One of our surprise singers has withdrawn due to some reasons, and we need a new surprise singer."
"We would like to invite your studio's artist Feiyue Miracle to be a surprise singer in this episode!"
