The next day.
On the day of recording.
Morning. Beijing TV.
"Eh, where's Director Zhang?"
"I don't know."
"He was here just now."
"Brother Hu, Director Zhang has fallen asleep backstage."
"Director Zhang didn't sleep at all last night."
"Aiya, the audience is here. Let him hold on a little longer and work overtime."
"Alright, I understand. I'll go get Director Zhang then."
The audience entered the venue.
The singers took their places.
The only thing missing was that the director wasn't around.
When Zhang Ye was woken up, he forced himself to wash his face with cold water. When he came out, he saw Xiaodong and Amy in the hallway. The two of them immediately came up to him.
Xiaodong asked, "Can you save the situation?"
Zhang Ye nodded. "It's good enough."
Amy looked at him. "Director Zhang, you're so evil. I saw your Weibo post yesterday. Hahahaha, Central TV Department 1 is probably going to hate you like crazy!"
Zhang Ye laughed and said, "Someone hacked my account."
"Yi!" Amy jeered.
On the other side, Zhang Xia also came to the bathroom and saw them.
Zhang Xia immediately asked, "Little Zhang, is the replacement singer here yet?"
Zhang Ye answered, "I guess so."
"Who is it?" Amy immediately asked.
Zhang Xia also asked curiously, "Do I know him?"
Zhang Ye smiled and said, "I guess so."
Xiaodong: "What about me?"
"You know him too," Zhang Ye said.
He didn't reveal anything else. He turned around and hurried to the front to busy himself.
Half an hour later …
There were no empty seats in the recording studio, and the audience was in heated discussion.
"Did you see Weibo yesterday?"
"I saw it, hahaha, it's so funny!"
"Zhang Ye is really too much. He's too ruthless!"
"He's just a piece of dogskin plaster."
"But it's really a relief. Who asked Central TV to stab them in the back first."
"That's right. I still don't know how I Am a Singer will salvage the situation. The singer will definitely not be able to host the show, right? Then who's going up? Dong Shanshan? Zhang Ye? "
"Who knows? If that's the case, we'll have to change the rules."
"I still prefer singers and hosts."
"Yeah, changing the rules now will definitely affect the ratings."
"The key is that everyone is already used to the rule of having a substitute host. It's already deeply ingrained in them."
On the stage.
The orchestra was in place.
The staff were in position.
Countdown:
Three.
Two.
One.
Recording began!
The audience's eyes were already wide open, waiting to see how they would respond. Then, many of them saw a person holding a microphone walking up the stage. At that moment, there were cries of surprise. Some of them were stunned, while others were laughing out loud. In an instant, everyone stood up and applauded thunderously!
It was him!
It really was him!
The singers backstage were also amused.
Zhang Xia smiled and said, "In the end, Little Zhang still has to host it."
Chen Guang said, "I already guessed it. It's either him or Dong Shanshan."
Xiaodong said happily, "You're the executive director and host, Teacher Zhang. It's been hard on you."
Zhang Ye was already standing onstage. He smiled and said, "Hello, everyone. Welcome to I Am a Singer, an exclusive title sponsor of Brain Gold. I'm your host today, a legitimate and professional host with a 'license' and a 'business permit.' I've also won the highest award for hosting. Oh, some of you are wondering where Sister Dong has gone to? Sister Dong is illegal, so someone reported her. She's busy taking the host certification exam now. "
"Pu!"
"Hahaha!"
Laughter could be heard from below.
This fellow, he did not forget to mock them even though he was here!
Zhang Ye spoke with fervor and assurance, "So when Sister Dong found out that I would be the substitute host today, she specifically looked for me and repeatedly instructed me to convey these words to the audience. These words are especially important, so if you have a pen, please take note of them carefully."
Everyone was taken aback.
What words?
What important words?
A lot of people pricked up their ears.
Zhang Ye cleared his throat and his expression changed. Suddenly, he said quickly, "Thank you to the leading health supplement brand, Brain Gold Corporation, for being the exclusive title sponsor of this show. Thank you to Hubei Pharmaceutical Corporation for their strong sponsorship. If you're going to use a tablet, then use the 8-inch Polaroid tablet with multi-core technology. Sweet Sweet fruit juice. It's so sweet you can feel it in your heart!"
The audience burst into laughter!
That's it?
Important, your sister!
Isn't this just a fucking commercial!
The singers backstage were also laughing for a long time, especially Xiaodong. She didn't know whether to laugh or cry, but at the same time, she was quite convinced. She suddenly felt that the SARFT's decree was not without reason. Looking at Zhang Ye's hosting and then looking at her own hosting, the difference was indeed very big. This was the difference between a professional host who had won the Golden Microphone Award and a guest host. Be it rhythm, humor, adaptability, eloquence, or aura, the difference was too great.
With just a few words from Zhang Ye, he had warmed up the venue.
Zhang Ye said calmly, "Then, let's begin today's competition. The first singer who will be appearing today will be the replacement singer for this episode, so we'll hand the stage over to him."
Applause rang out.
The singers backstage were all straining their necks as they waited. Who could it be? Was it an old friend? They did not wish for a strong one to appear, because the person on stage right now was already strong enough.
The audience also looked towards the moon gate.
Who could it be?
Where was he?
However, some of the audience were not paying attention.
"They've changed the rules after all."
"Yeah, what else could they have done?"
"Hai, Central TV Department 1 is too wicked."
"We'll just have to make do with it."
"Yeah, Zhang Ye's hosting skills are pretty good. If it's not a singer hosting, then so be it."
"But it's still a pity."
"With a singer hosting, the interactions backstage are also nice to watch."
"It'll definitely affect the quality of the show."
The instruments went on stage.
The microphones were set up.
More than 20 men and women came out one after another. The men were dressed in black gowns, while the women were dressed in white. It looked like they were the backup singers? Or were they singing a duet?
Everyone was even more confused now.
Amy wondered, "What's going on?"
Zhang Xia said in anticipation, "Just who's coming?"
Xiaodong smiled and said, "This is quite a big lineup. What are they going to sing? Could it be a bel canto singer? A friend of Grandma Zhang's? "
Everything was ready.
The lights dimmed.
A lot of the people in the venue were so excited that they could no longer sit still.
"Where's the singer?"
"Come on out!"
"There's no one at the moon gate?"
"Eh, Zhang Ye is still onstage?"
"Haha, this idiot!"
"Teacher Zhang, it's time for you to go down."
"Why is this idiot still standing there like a fool?"
Everyone started teasing him.
The next moment, the orchestral music started playing!
At this moment, everyone was dumbfounded. What was going on? What was going on? The music was playing? But where was the singer? The replacement singer hadn't come out yet?
Onstage, Zhang Ye slowly turned around to face the audience. He picked up the microphone and had a helpless and tired look on his face. It was as though he had not woken up yet.
It was the sound effects of crows.
"Ga, ga."
Zhang Ye actually started singing.
"Night has enveloped Chaoyang Park.
"The plaza dance, Danse, is ready.
"I look out the window at the shadows of the trees.
"Could this be my youth?"
The male chorus sang, "When the petals leave the flower."
At this moment, the audience was so shocked that they all stood up!
Oh my god!
Zhang Ye!
The replacement singer is Zhang Ye!
Oh my god! Why didn't I think of this earlier!
So the rules hadn't changed!
So it was still the singer hosting!
Zhang Ye had come to save the day!
Holy shit! This is going to get really interesting!
Amy was dumbfounded. "NO!!!"
Xiaodong nearly fainted. "It's over!"
Zhang Xia facepalmed. "Oh! Surely not, right? "
Chen Guang was also starting to get a headache. He gave a wry smile and said, "A tough character has appeared. Before coming to I Am a Singer, I was thinking that it didn't matter who I met, as long as I didn't meet Zhang Ye."
Zhao Wuliu didn't know whether to laugh or cry. "Why is it Director Zhang? If he were to sing seriously, it would be enough to give everyone a hard time. He's a tough character. "
The singers all had similar reactions!
But the audience was very happy to see this and were getting very excited!
Zhang Ye shyly sang, "There's a boss called Hu Fei."
The male voice said, "He's called Hu Fei."
Zhang Ye said, "He appears at 6 PM. His eyes look just like a Schnauzer."
The female voice said, "Just like a Schnauzer."
The sound effects said, "Woof woof!"
Zhang Ye rolled his eyes and sang, "Holding a pot of steaming hot coffee in his hands."
The male and female voices said, "Hehehe."
Zhang Ye said, "Should we hold a meeting?"
This was also the first time Hu Fei, who was in the audience, had heard this song. He nearly vomited blood!
Hou Ge, Xiao Lu, and the other staff also burst out laughing. Hahahahaha! They could hear Zhang Ye's emotions from his singing! This fellow was still angry even now! He did not want to fill in at all! He was forced to do so by Hu Fei and his group of people!
…
The next day.
The show was broadcast.
On TV at Zhang Ye's house.
"I say, this isn't a good idea.
"I'm going to the airport to pick up my elderly father.
"We haven't seen each other in over 30 years.
"He's from faraway Siberia.
His parents were dumbfounded!
Haven't seen each other in over 30 years?
You rascal, how old are you!
…
Central TV Department 1.
"I clearly have nothing to do during the day.
"I also saw that you were streaming."
"Don't you have a home?
"Please don't say that!"
"— Baby.
"Add! Shift! Up! "
When everyone saw the latest episode, they nearly fainted!
…
All over the country.
Zhang Ye's bel canto singing was playing in every household!
Some people were excited!
Some people were dumbfounded!
"I feel like I've been hollowed out.
"I'm as tired as a dog.
"For 18 days, I didn't remove my makeup.
"I've been tossing and turning for two and a half years.
"My schedule is messed up, but I'm getting fatter.
…
The Internet was quickly turned upside down by this song!
Countless netizens were kneeling to Zhang Ye!
"It's Zhang Ye!"
"When I saw that he was the replacement singer, I felt my hair stand on end!"
"This is so awesome, this song resonates so well!"
"Is it nice? Pfft! Why is it so funny! "
"Hahahaha, my whole family laughed so hard when they heard this song!"
"It's sung so well! I don't want to work overtime either! "
"Zhang Ye has really been forced into a corner!"
"I'm kneeling to this song!"
"It's a divine tune!"
"I'll fucking give full marks for this rescue!"
"I like Zhang Ye so much!"
"This bel canto is really well sung!"
"Haha, this fellow even scolded his producer, Hu Fei!"
"Pfft, the key is that those were Zhang Ye's thoughts. He definitely didn't want to be the replacement singer, but he was forced to do so. That's how 'I Feel Hollowed Out' came about!"
The executive director!
The vote counter!
The host!
And the contestant?
Pfft!
Anyone would have been fucking hollowed out if they were in his shoes!
This was going to exhaust Zhang Ye to death!
There had never been anyone in history who had taken on so many roles in a show at the same time. If he wasn't hollowed out, then who would be!?
