Thursday, at the TV station.
At the recording studio of "I Am a Singer."
Qin Ze sat in the middle of the crowd. Above his head, the neon lights were dazzling. It felt like when he was in junior high school, the school organized the whole school to move small benches to the field to watch anti-Japanese war movies.
Qin Ze participated in the recording of a variety show for the first time. The ticket was given to him by Qin Bao Bao. It seemed that the program team gave the singer a free live ticket. Qin Bao Bao thought of her best friend first. Wang Zijin said that she still had a script to finish and couldn't find the time. His sister reluctantly gave it to Qin Ze.
Out of novelty, Qin Ze gladly accepted it.
There were still ten minutes before the recording. The hundreds of audience members were chattering. No one was using their phones because their phones were taken away by the security. Those who had two phones couldn't use them either. There was a signal jammer in the studio.
Beside him, a few young men were whispering excitedly. "When will Xu Lu come on stage? I specially came to see Xu Lu. "
"Hey, it's still early. Look at the big screen later. The results of the singer's lot drawing will be shown."
"I didn't expect that they could even invite a big shot like Xu Lu."
"This is much more interesting than a concert."
"Xu Lu's status in the music industry isn't high. We've all heard her singing before. I like Qin Bao Bao more. Her voice is nice and she's beautiful. Most importantly, her body. Tsk tsk. "
"Hmph, no matter how beautiful Qin Bao Bao is, I'll always be the man she can't get."
"Sh * t won't be noble just because no one cares."
"Definitely. How could the big shots let go of such a beautiful woman? She has so many good songs. Why would the entertainment company promote her for no reason? "
"Bah, don't insult my goddess. Didn't she say that it was all written by her brother?"
"To hell with your brother. Please don't say it. Who would believe you? The songs she sang were of different styles. How could one person write all of them? That's just a fig leaf. I can't possibly say that I slept with my boss in exchange for resources to rise up the ranks. "
"Young man, you're too young."
Qin Ze sighed to himself. People were too prejudiced against the entertainment industry. Perhaps it was not prejudiced, but the truth. But even if they knew that a female celebrity's jade-like arms were pillowed by thousands of people, and her lips were tasted by tens of thousands of people, there were still people who chased after her like crazy. The human heart was so complicated that it was difficult to describe it with words.
A staff member went up on stage and held the microphone. "The recording of the program is about to begin. We are entering the countdown. Everyone, please remain silent."
The countdown ended and the recording began.
Yin Jia's beautiful figure appeared on the big screen behind the stage. The background was backstage. As usual, he chatted and joked with the guests. The program was very effective, and the audience laughed loudly.
Then, it was time to knock on the door. Xu Lu was wearing a light blue off-the-shoulder dress and white high heels. She was a young woman in her thirties. She had a graceful bearing and exquisite makeup on her face, making her look even more beautiful and flawless.
The moment Xu Lu appeared on the big screen, the audience cheered.
"Sister Xu, I'm your fan. Can you give me a hug?" Yin Jia was as surprised as a little girl.
"Of course." Xu Lu smiled warmly as the two hugged.
"Sister Xu, the Internet said that you brought a new song this time. Is it true?" Yin Jia pretended to be curious.
"Yes, it's Teacher Xu Gongming's new song. He spent two years composing this song. By the way, let me tell you a secret. This song is the title song of my new album. "Xu Lu winked at the camera and acted cute.
Yin Jia exclaimed and exaggerated, "Slow work produces fine work. Ten years of polishing a sword. Sister Xu, I'm really curious and looking forward to it. "
Her acting was exaggerated.
Xu Lu nodded and used this opportunity to promote her new album. "Everyone, you must support my new album."
The audience bought it. "Don't worry, we'll definitely support you."
"I'm looking forward to it."
"Is Xu Lu good at singing?"
"Of course. The news said that Xu Lu has been practicing her singing skills for years. There are pictures to prove it. Moreover, the title song of the album is the work of Teacher Xu Gongming for three years. It'll definitely be good. "
"Then I'll support you too."
Yin Jia praised Xu Lu as usual and led her to the hall to meet the other singers. The show entered the lot-drawing segment. The audience was looking forward to this segment.
Since the start of Singer, the lot-drawing segment had been very interesting. Li Rongxing had been acting cute to get a good draw. Next, Qin Bao Bao's lot-drawing result was the most interesting.
This episode's lot-drawing results:
Huang Yuteng vs. Chen Xiaotong
Liu Xuegang vs. Li Rongxing
Xu Lu vs. Qin Bao Bao
"Xu Lu vs. Qin Bao Bao? I bought a watch last year. "
"Qin Bao Bao's luck is simply unbelievable."
"Qin Bao Bao is going to fly to the sky and stand side by side with the sun."
"It's a matter of character. In the first episode, she fought with Huang Yuteng. In the second episode, Xue Mei. In the third episode, Liu Xuegang. In the fourth episode … Damn, it's the A-list star, Xu Lu."
"I'm also drunk. How can she win? Why did she get Xu Lu? "
"I'm silently sweating for the big-breasted girl."
"It's Xu Lu. I'm also drunk."
"Bao Bao, it's a tragedy again."
The audience was slightly in an uproar. With different expressions, they all expressed sympathy for Qin Bao Bao.
This segment was interesting. Some people on the Internet had already ridiculed Qin Bao Bao's luck. She had drawn big names one after another. The interesting thing was that she survived every time.
In the first episode, she lost to Huang Yuteng, but successfully returned to the stage in the revival round.
In the second episode, she defeated Xue Mei with a crushing number of votes.
In the third episode, she shocked the music industry with a song, and the King of Rock and Roll was defeated by her.
In the last three episodes, Qin Bao Bao quickly rose from an unknown newcomer to the status of a new female singer. Her popularity now was not inferior to Xue Mei's.
In this episode, she would face the A-list star, Xu Lu.
The audience whispered. The director threw the camera backstage and asked the staff to go on stage and shout, "Everyone, please be quiet. Be quiet."
The audience's discussion stopped for a while. Qin Ze listened attentively. Everything could happen once, but not twice, but twice, but not thrice. Was Qin Bao Bao's luck really that bad? The first time was a coincidence, the second time was not justifiable, and the third time was still the same luck. It could only mean one thing: human factors.
The program team was messing with her.
Qin Ze guessed.
But the program team would not do anything to Qin Bao Bao for no reason. The answer was obvious. Star Art or Xu Lu was using their connections to secretly mess with Qin Bao Bao. Although "I Am a Singer" was known for its fair and just reputation, fairness was relative and not absolute. Qin Ze had reason to suspect that the program team did something behind the scenes during the drawing of lots. As for how they did it, he could not figure it out for the time being.
The task of 500 points was indeed not simple.
Not long after, Yin Jia came out. She was dressed up and walked out of the backstage in high heels. The camera was aimed at her. Yin Jia gestured to the director and the camera opened. Yin Jia smiled sweetly. "Hello, everyone. Welcome to" I Am a Singer "broadcast by" Sheng Ji "cosmetics. I am the host, Yin Jia."
The audience applauded very cooperatively. Camera 2 pointed the camera at the audience.
Yin Jia said, "Everyone has seen the result of the drawing of lots. Huang Yuteng is a popular singer in the music industry. Today, what kind of beautiful music will he bring to us? Let's welcome — Huang Yuteng! "
Loud applause.
Huang Yuteng walked along the long trapezoidal stage to the center. The lights above his head scattered into countless light beams. They danced in the air and then gathered again to hit him. His outfit today was a bit strange. He wore bell-bottoms from the 70s, an old-fashioned floral shirt, and his hairstyle was also split.
This outfit was a bit interesting …
The music started. The audience consciously shut up and kept quiet.
"My hometown is getting younger and younger."
"Only my father's face is old."
"I look at this unfamiliar hometown seriously."
"It's not how I remember it."
"The passing years have been washed away, and everything has changed."
"I'm like a guest from afar, passing by here."
It was a folk song from the 70s. It told the story of a prodigal son and his hometown. The prodigal son, who was working hard outside when he was young, returned to his hometown after many years. His father was old, and his hometown changed with each passing day. The shadow of the past could no longer be found. The song was filled with deep sadness and melancholy. Huang Yuteng added pop elements and corrected a few mistakes in the original song.
"The brand-new buildings stand proudly under the sun."
"The old walls that have collapsed under my feet."
"The colorful ones are easy to get tired of chewing."
"The black and white memories stay in my youth."
"Like those outdated but classic old feature films."
"I see the clock again."
"I know I'm almost home."
"The wind blows away the leaves and throws the soul to spring."
"This is the hometown I'll eventually return to."
Not many young people had heard this song. They only felt that the song was sad and melancholy. It made them feel inexplicably sad. They couldn't help but immerse themselves in the anxiety and longing of a prodigal son returning to his hometown. However, some older people's eyes turned red. This was a song from their era. It was the feelings of their era. How many people left their hometown and struggled for decades? Some were submerged in the tide of the times, while others stood at the head of the tide.
Whether they failed or succeeded, when they returned to their hometown with sadness and sadness or the joy of success, things had changed. Their hometown was no longer the same as before.
Children didn't know each other when they met.
Huang Yuteng's adaptation was undoubtedly successful.
He had touched the hearts of many people.
The music stopped, and applause rang out.
Huang Yuteng bowed slightly and left the stage.
According to the rules of the program, singers couldn't canvass for votes before or after the performance. They were all well-known singers. It was very likely that their words would affect the audience's choice.
Many audience members had never heard this song before. At this time, they were discussing excitedly.
"What song is this? I've never heard it before."
"It's a very old song. I heard it when I was young, but the original song wasn't so good."
"That's right. Who is Cult Leader Huang? He's a big shot in the music industry."
"When the online resources are released, I must download it."
"It's good. After the adaptation, the quality is close to that of a masterpiece … No, it's a masterpiece."
"Damn, I feel like I'm stuck. I miss home."
"I didn't go home for the Spring Festival last year. I suddenly want to go home. My hometown has changed a lot over the years. It's a little unfamiliar. "
On the stage, Yin Jia said loudly, "Let's welcome the next singer — Chen Xiaotong."
The surrounding lights suddenly turned dark. A round lamp shone on the center of the stage. There stood the middle-aged Chen Xiaotong, the former queen. When Chen Xiaotong was young, she was also a well-known beauty. As time passed, fine crow's feet appeared at the corners of her eyes, and her figure was plump. However, her charm was still very strong. It was a fatal temptation to mature women.
Reality proved that there were many mature women who were mature women.
Chen Xiaotong sang a Cantonese song. Her voice was beautiful, and her breath was deep. However, Huang Yuteng was in front of her. Her song couldn't surpass her competitor's.
Soon, the votes were out. Huang Yuteng defeated Chen Xiaotong with a score of 60 votes.
Chen Xiaotong entered the revival round.
The second group of singers, in terms of song selection and performance, were not as amazing as the first group.
Li Rongxing couldn't counterattack Liu Xuegang, who was good at singing rock, and entered the revival round.
The third group, Xu Lu versus Qin Bao Bao.
The highlight of this week's episode came on stage with a new song.
Xu Lu's fans were excited. On the other hand, Qin Bao Bao's fans were worried.
Qin Bao Bao had almost no chance of winning.
