Chapter 31: Fang Jing is a relative of the investor
"The most beautiful scene in my life is meeting you,"
"Looking at you quietly in the vast sea of people, strange and familiar at the same time."
"Ahh!!"
"Even though I breathe the same sky, I can't hug you."
"If the identity and name of time and space are converted,"
"I wish I could recognize your eyes."
"Where will you be in a thousand years?"
“What kind of scenery is there around me?”
Yu Mengxuan's song is called Mythology, starring Hu Ge, the first brother of the Tang Dynasty. It is the most popular theme song of a costume drama in the past few years.
This song was originally written and sung by Jin Sha, who was also the heroine in the early stage of this drama. Unfortunately, she died in the eighth episode, which made countless viewers cry.
So many years later, when this drama was mentioned again, people said that it only had eight episodes. It was a pity that Jin Sha did not have any more film and television works.
She bounced around the music scene, but was always tepid, and slowly faded out of the public eye, until she became a third-tier star, relying on small commercial performances to make a living. It has to be said that it is a big regret.
The studio was eerily quiet, and none of the three instructors made a sound. Han Hong folded her hands on her chest and listened with her eyes closed, while Li Wen looked at Yu Meng carefully.
Huang Xiaoming is a layman and doesn't know much about music, but he can tell that Yu Meng sings beautifully. If his face wasn't different, he almost thought it was the original singer.
"Ahh!!"
"Even though I breathe the same sky, I can't hug you."
"If the identity and name of time and space are converted,"
"I wish I could recognize your eyes."
"Where will you be in a thousand years?"
“What kind of scenery is there around me?”
"Our story is not beautiful, but it is so unforgettable."
"If we had been brave enough to be together, would the ending have been different?"
"Do you also have a thousand words?"
"Buried in a silent dream."
…
Humans are visual and auditory animals. For many men, a girl who can sing and dance is a plus in terms of charm.
Yu Meng's voice is slightly sad, desolate and tough, which makes people feel the protective desire to hold her in their arms and care about her.
With his eyes closed, Fang Jing seemed to see Lu Susu again, who violated his father's words, risked the world's disapproval, and pursued love throughout his life without any regrets.
"Bah bang bang!"
After the song was over, Han Hong took the lead in applauding, "You sang well, and you were very involved. I didn't expect that we got off to a good start. We encountered such a beautiful voice on the first day."
Li Wen nodded, "Your image is very good, which is a plus, but there are a few flaws when you sing. Did you pay attention to them? If they were handled better, it would be perfect."
A trace of worry flashed in Yu Meng's eyes. This song was specially chosen by her. It was widely sung, so many people had heard it, so she had certain advantages when singing it.
Just imagine, if two contestants sing, one sings an unpopular song and the other sings a classic song, with the same singing skills, the judges will definitely favor the one who sings the classic song in the end.
Although the advantages are obvious, the disadvantages are also obvious. Sometimes the original singer sings too well and the audience only recognizes that voice. If you continue to follow the lead, you will be humiliating yourself.
If the emotion and sound are just a little different, people will compare you with the original singer and hold on to preconceived notions, and the final result will be a slap in the face.
Yu Meng chose this song because, firstly, her voice was suitable for this style of singing, and secondly, she had specially practiced to perform on stage for the school's orientation party some time ago.
After practicing hundreds of times, she imitated it perfectly. The mistake just now was just because she was too nervous to stand on such a stage for the first time.
Crossing his fingers and leaning on the table in front of him, Huang Xiaoming said: "I am not a musician. In terms of professional level, Teacher Han Hong and Teacher Li Wen know better than me."
"But what I want to say is that your voice really moved me. Each of our three mentors has one vote, and you must have at least two of the three votes to advance."
"So, my choice is...live!"
"call!"
"Thank you teacher!"
Yu Meng breathed a sigh of relief, her little heart was pounding. She had never been so nervous before. She looked at the remaining two people. Where her fate would go next was entirely in the hands of these two people.
"Don't look at me so pitifully. I, Old Han, don't care about the situation but the person. No matter how pitiful I am, I will treat you like a pity."
"yes!"
Yu Meng was so excited that she got two out of three votes. She didn't expect to be promoted. This time, her best friend encouraged her to come and said she sang well, so why not sign up and give it a try?
It happened that several members of the club were coming, so she simply came with them.
"Like Teacher Han Hong, I have told you that I wish you good luck in the next competition, come on!"
Both of them have given it to Li Wen before. There is no need for Li Wen to be the bad guy, and her vote is no longer important, so she might as well give Shun Shui a favor.
"Thank you, thank you three teachers!"
Yu Meng bowed and walked back to the waiting hall with brisk steps. Fang Jing saw her passing by him and smiled: "Congratulations!"
The spring breeze was so proud that the horse's hooves were so fast that Yu Meng did not hide the joy on his face and said politely: "Come on, you can do it too, I'll wait for you behind."
"I accept your good words!"
…
As the morning passed, there were fewer and fewer people in the hall. It was full at first but now it is half empty. The remaining people would be lying if they said they were not in a hurry.
Not everyone is as lucky as Yu Meng. Among the more than 100 people who left, only seven or eight were promoted. Some were not good at singing, and some were not good at appearance. In Li Wen's words, they just had no packaging and could not become popular.
Although the music industry relies on sound to make a living, it still attaches great importance to appearance. I think about how much hardship Han Hong endured to get where she is today, but not everyone is Han Hong.
After all, this is still an era based on appearance, "Can you be a good person if you are handsome?" In the past, this was just to exclude people, but now, I'm sorry, if you are handsome, you can be a good person.
At 12 o'clock at noon, the instructors went back to their rooms, and the remaining people were arranged to have a meal in the TV station cafeteria, with three dishes and one soup, free of charge.
This can be regarded as a little compensation for them. After all, they spent hundreds of yuan in registration fees. If they go out to eat, they have to go through security when they come back, which wastes time and is too troublesome.
It's a pity that these people have no intention of eating. They all feel the same and wandering around. There is nothing they can do. Elimination is too cruel.
The tutors have to face so many of them in a day, and it takes seven or eight hours to complete the screening. You can imagine how fast it must be, and it only takes two or three minutes for each person on average.
At four o'clock in the afternoon, after going to the toilet countless times, I finally arrived at Fang Jing. White shirt, white shoes, jeans, energetic, clean and tidy. This was Han Hong's first impression of Fang Jing.
Looking at the information in his hand strangely, Huang Xiaoming smiled and lowered his head without saying anything. Li Wen was not very interested. The producer found the three of them before and gave them a list.
The meaning is very simple. Let the people on the list pass. They have been in the entertainment industry for so many years and they are not surprised. Otherwise, do you think the millions are given to you for nothing?
But it's just that it's a bit arrogant to do this on the first day? Moreover, Fang Jing's treatment is not ordinary, so they need to be given more opportunities to perform by their instructors.
If it weren't for the fact that the information said he was from a rural area, Huang Xiaoming would have doubted whether Fang Jing was a relative of the investor.
