"Tomorrow will you remember the diary you wrote yesterday? Tomorrow will you still remember that you once..."
"stop!"
Lu Chen had just finished singing the first few lines of an original song "My Deskmate You" when he was interrupted by the female judge.
The judge, who is still charming in his thirties and forties, said with a smile: "Not bad, I'll give it to you."
She turned to look at the other two judges: "What are your opinions?"
The two judges nodded: "Pass!"
The female judge smiled at Lu Chen and said, "Congratulations, you can participate in the official audition. Come on!"
Lu Chen was stunned for a moment, then quickly reacted, bowed and said, "Thank you three teachers."
It took less than half a minute for him to take the stage, and he passed like this?
This is too fast!
In fact, Lu Chen underestimated his own strength. His strength is not only his original creation and singing and playing skills, but also includes his external conditions. Simply put, his appearance.
With a height of 1.80+, a handsome appearance and a good and healthy body, he will not be easily eliminated in the preliminary audition of any mass talent show - the privilege of handsome men.
So as long as Lu Chen can play and sing, the three judges won't care about his originality and will give him a pass directly.
This is an era where faces are valued, and Lu Chen belongs to this era!
After he left the stage, a staff member presented him with a piece of plastic-sealed color-printed cardboard, with the logo of "The Strongest Singer-Songwriter" and his new audition number - 0580 - printed on the front.
As for the reverse side of the cardboard, there are two large gold characters "promotion" printed on it against the background of the blue starry sky.
It's a very beautiful card. Even if you don't make it to the next round, you can still collect it as a souvenir.
Lu Chen did not rush to leave the big tent, but waited for the little girl behind him to come on.
The little girl numbered 17691 performed very well and played the guitar to a certain standard, so she quickly got the promotion card. When she came down and saw Lu Chen, she raised her round chin proudly.
Lu Chen laughed dumbly and walked out of the pilot test with her.
The little girl's family had been waiting outside for a long time. When they saw her triumphantly waving the promotion card in her hand, they all screamed with excitement, eager to announce it to the world immediately.
Lu Chen found it quite interesting, silently blessed him, and then left the gym.
That night, he received a call from Chen Jianhao.
The other party briefly asked Lu Chen about his experience in participating in the preliminary audition during the day and his promotion number, but said nothing more.
Lu Chen felt that his former boss seemed to be hiding something or planning something.
It's just that everyone has his own privacy, and he doesn't need to explore it carefully.
Five days is neither short nor long, and it passes quickly in the busy work.
On June 25, Qing, officially auditioned for "The Strongest Singer-Songwriter".
The official audition location is still at the Capital Stadium, but it has been moved from an open-air football field to an indoor basketball court. The scale has been reduced a lot, but the specifications have been improved a lot.
After being eliminated in the preliminary audition, although only one out of ten singers advanced to the formal audition, it was not possible to select them all in just one or two days. Lu Chen's luck was still there, and he was still assigned to the first day.
The basketball court was divided into two by the organizer, forming two audition live broadcast stages in the north and south. Many staff members wearing Shonan Satellite TV uniforms were busy, and there were more than ten camera seats inside and outside.
It is said to be a live broadcast, but it is actually a recorded broadcast. The audition process will be broadcast on the Internet and TV after post-editing. There is also live broadcast content, but it is all on-site interviews and the like.
Therefore, most of the audition contestants will not appear on the screen unless they advance to the first round of the official competition.
The contestants were seated in the auditorium of the basketball court according to their promotion numbers. They still entered by calling their numbers. Lu Chen made a visual inspection and found that there were about three to four hundred competitors on the first day.
Then comes the long wait.
Many players are very experienced. They gather together in twos and threes, chatting about music, encouraging each other to relax, and some practice playing and singing repeatedly on the spot, but most of them only have fragments.
At noon, the staff delivered a lunch box.
Although it is just fast food, it is still quite rich in content. Beef, shrimp, eggs and seasonal vegetables are by no means cheap items that cost more than ten or twenty yuan. The taste is quite good.
Lu Chen stopped eating when he was half full. It was not that he was wasting food, but being full was not conducive to singing.
At around 1 p.m., Lu Chen finally heard the staff calling his number.
"No. 0580!"
Under the guidance of the staff, he quickly arrived at the preparation stage, and after another 2 minutes, he officially made his debut!
The number of judges for the official auditions increased to four, two men and two women, both of whom were unknowns. Lu Chen recognized at least two of them, and the names of the other two were vaguely familiar, but he was not familiar with them.
The layout of the venue was very luxurious, with four cameras arranged in the front, back, left and right. In addition to the four judges, there were seven or eight on-site staff. Even if there was no audience, the atmosphere was completely different from the primary election.
Facing the gazes of four cameras and four judges, Lu Chen did not have any stage fright and said calmly: "Hello, judges and teachers, I am contestant No. 0580 Lu Chen, from East Zhejiang."
He had never eaten pork and had seen pigs run away. Lu Chen had watched a lot of audition videos online in the past few days and already knew a lot about the audition process, so he introduced himself in a formal manner after he came on stage.
"The song I brought to you today is called You at the Same Desk. Please give me some guidance from four teachers."
A female judge smiled and said: "Let's start. You have 2 minutes to sing well."
Lu Chen knew this judge. She was Lu Ya, a well-known domestic female singer who was good at singing love songs. She should be in her thirties or almost forties this year, but she looked more like someone in her twenties, full of mature and beautiful charm.
Lu Chen nodded, hugged the guitar and started playing and singing.
"Will you remember tomorrow the diary you wrote yesterday..."
drop!
After playing the simple prelude, he had just opened his mouth to sing a few lines when a harsh chirping sound suddenly sounded.
A bright red light lit up in front of one of the judges' desks!
According to the rules of the audition, this means that the judge does not approve of Lu Chen's singing and will not be promoted.
Lu Ya looked at the other party in surprise.
This judge is Zhang Xiaoan, the variety show host of Xiangnan Satellite TV, who is very famous in the industry. It is somewhat unusual for him to reject Lu Chen so quickly.
Lu Chen has no problem with fingerstyle, he is even quite proficient and excellent, and the melody of his work is also quite good. Why did he get a red flag after singing just two lines?
Zhang Xiaoan's face was expressionless, as if he didn't notice Lu Ya's gaze at all.
Lu Chen raised his eyebrows. It would be a lie to say that he was not affected by the sudden red light.
However, he was not a newbie after all, so he continued to play and sing smoothly.
"...will you still miss me tomorrow? You used to cry the most."
drop!
The second red light comes on!
The person who lights up this time is another female judge, Jenny Chen. She is a female singer and musician who has returned to China from overseas in recent years to develop her career. She is currently very popular in the pop music world.
She didn't seem to like Lu Chen's style of work, and she frowned and looked impatient.
According to the rules, if the four judges light up three red lights, they will be eliminated directly!
Lu Chen, who had already been shown two red lights, was completely calm and continued to play and sing half of "My Deskmate" by himself.
"Thanks!"
He held his guitar and bowed to the judges' table to thank him.
Even though there were two red lights in front of him, Lu Chen's performance of the song was still perfect, without any shortcomings.
Zhang Xiaoan said calmly: "The style is too old and the melody is average. We have to keep working hard."
Jenny Chen commented: "You play the guitar well, but we selected the best singer and songwriter, so I can only say sorry and hope you work hard next time."
The implication is that Lu Chen's songs are still not good enough.
Lu Ya smiled and said: "Lu Chen, I think your work is excellent..."
drop!
Before she finished speaking, the fourth judge sitting on the far left pressed the red light.
Three red lights, out!
