Chapter 3: First Stage Debut, Becoming a Lone Warrior in the Music Scene
"No way, he couldn't have just written it randomly, could he..."
"How could that be? He's not a professionally trained actor; he must be deliberately creating a sensation."
"If they had that capability, they would have shown it already. Why wait until now?"
"If contestant number 32 can sing a complete original song, I'll eat my phone live on stream!"
A barrage of skeptical comments flew across the live stream chat.
To maintain a certain sense of mystery, Wang Yueheng did not compose music on the whiteboard.
Several mentors also wanted to see Wang Yueheng's score, but unfortunately the cameraman did not give it a close-up shot.
We can only wait for Wang Yueheng's next live performance.
All players then drew lots to determine their order of appearance.
soon.
The female singer who drew the first performance order began her performance.
Perhaps it was because I was a little nervous about being the first one drawn.
This young female singer even sang in the wrong key while playing the guitar.
"Sizzle—"
"Sizzle—"
"Sizzle—"
Three conspicuous red X's lit up in sequence above the stage.
After listening to a short segment, Zhou Tianwang, Yu Huanqing, and Yuan Jixiang pressed the red button almost simultaneously.
The "Singer of China" program adopts a mentor-jury system.
Each mentor has a red light button next to their hand.
If you don't approve of a player's performance, you can press the red light.
A conspicuous red cross will appear above the stage.
If you do not press the light, the pass will be granted by default.
As the piercing elimination sound rang out, the female contestant became even more nervous and made a series of mistakes.
After listening for a while, mentor Nami shook her head.
The last red light was pressed.
Four red crosses lit up, indicating that the first singer failed to advance.
…
Watching the first contestant get eliminated and leave.
Wang Yueheng, who was the twentieth person to go on stage, also felt a little nervous.
After all, it's a career change, so it's understandable to feel a bit anxious.
…
"Next up, please welcome contestant number 1, Ren Yiwen!"
Ren Yiwen, who drew the fifth spot, walked onto the stage, picked up the microphone, and began to sing her song.
I am a little bird
Through trials and tribulations, one can soar high.
Yearning for the free sky
One day I will spread my wings and fly.
Oh oh~
His melancholic gaze and controlled tone instantly drew cheers from the female fans in the audience.
"Brother Yiwen, I love you!"
"Go Ren Yiwen! You're the best!"
As popular idol Ren Yiwen began to sing, the atmosphere at the competition reached a climax.
"That's right, this is what a singer's stage should look like!"
"Professionalism is true to professionalism; their stage presence and singing skills are spot on!"
"Just kidding, our Yiwen is a contender for the title of King of Singers!"
Relying on the appeal of popular idol Ren Yiwen, the popularity of the live broadcast room is gradually increasing.
"Ren Yiwen, well done!"
I saw the live stream's popularity increase.
Backstage producer Ni Yongying couldn't help but applaud this idol singer.
After Ren Yiwen finished her performance, all four mentors voted for her to advance.
…
As the program progressed.
More and more singers are advancing or being eliminated.
finally.
It was Wang Yueheng's turn to play.
He took the microphone from the staff member.
Wang Yueheng took a deep breath and stood in the center of the stage.
A bright spotlight shone on him, enveloping the slender figure of the young man.
Fortunately, I was already a member of the entertainment industry, so I wasn't so nervous that my legs were shaking.
"I'm outta here, I need to hurry and go to the bathroom."
"Are there any other well-known contestants coming up? If not, I'm changing the channel..."
"Let's start a game first."
Seeing Wang Yueheng, who had no reputation whatsoever, standing on the stage.
The audience at the scene or viewers in the live stream began to shift their attention.
Some audience members who were tired from the recording even started to leave early.
No one had any hope for Wang Yueheng's performance.
I quickly recalled the lyrics in my mind.
Wang Yueheng made an "OK" gesture to the accompanying band teacher.
As the lights in the entire venue gradually dimmed.
An electronic music melody that resonated throughout the venue began to play.
Then, a rapid, rhythmic drumbeat begins.
The intro, with its incredibly surround sound effect, begins.
People who were about to leave stopped and turned to look at the stage in confusion.
With this level of soundtrack, which big name is coming to do it?
Viewers in the live stream also glanced at the screen out of curiosity.
Upon closer inspection...
My eyes were glued to it.
The boy on the screen was surrounded by darkness.
As if shrouded in mystery, it slowly begins to sing.
