Chapter 162: Actually at the bottom? Questioning the ranking!
"I Am a Singer" live scene.
In this competition, the debut singers all chose to play it safe. Their song selection had no major innovations, and everyone chose their comfort zone without making major breakthroughs.
By comparison, the replacement singer's song selection was much bolder.
She chose a song with a magnificent background, and the entire string and wind orchestra was used to accompany her. As soon as her voice came out, it was like listening to a song in the National Opera House.
Atmospheric!
Solemn!
Grave!
And this song had many high notes. As long as one wanted to show off skills, one could show off enough. It was a song with great difficulty.
Through this song, netizens all understood the strength of the substitute singer.
She came to kick the hall, and it was well-deserved!
The perfect performance of the replacement singer brought great pressure to some veteran singers who hadn't appeared yet.
Luo Yingying was preparing backstage and heard the trump card played by this singer, and she was a bit tearful.
She also wanted to be shattered.
The assistant came over to interview, and Luo Yingying took a tissue to wipe her forehead: "A bit nervous, so nervous. Why am I behind her? Is it too late to apply for an emergency position change now?"
The assistant shook her head: "No, it's your turn next. Do you have confidence?"
Luo Yingying pulled out a far-fetched smile and cheered herself on: "I have confidence!"
【So fake...】
【Must relax. She will sing the wrong lyrics if she gets nervous.】
【Did anyone secretly record the rehearsal version? I want to hear fairy music~】
Perhaps it was the strong pressure brought by the replacement singer, or perhaps this song selection was too mediocre, or perhaps Luo Yingying's mentality wasn't good.
So much so that her stage appearance had many mistakes!
After listening to her performance, the singers waiting in the lounge had somewhat solemn expressions.
This was a live broadcast. The music they heard could also be heard by the audience.
In this situation.
They couldn't say it sounded good against their conscience.
After Luo Yingying finished performing, it was Wang Jie's turn to go on stage.
Wang Jie withstood the pressure, and his performance had no mistakes, but it was too programmed. He at most just moved his mouth to sing, but didn't put in any emotion.
From a technical point of view, Wang Jie could get a high score this time.
But from the perspective of the live audience, Wang Jie's performance might not necessarily be able to move them more than Luo Yingying's.
The next one to go on stage was Xiao Su, who was used to singing pop music.
Mentioning Xiao Su, he was also quite bumpy.
He entered as a kick-hall singer in the third round and joined the ranking battle after a successful kick-hall.
Being able to stay until now, his results should be quite good, but in reality, it's not.
Xiao Su's ranking every time was like walking a tightrope.
Falling to the last place means leaving, and Xiao Su, unfortunately, was second to last every time.
So he just stayed like this all the way.
In the previous few seasons, he would still be a bit nervous and complain.
"Sigh, I don't know what to say either. It would be better if... I just left."
"Sigh, I know I sing badly. I will try to correct it."
"Sigh, I'm shattered."
Walking all the way stumbling until now, Xiao Su instead opened up in this scene, becoming more relaxed than ever, and started to enjoy this stage.
Although he sang his comfort zone—pop love songs, netizens heard sincerity in it.
There are many singers in the music scene.
Every singer has different characteristics and charms. Not all singers must learn the singing method of the high-pitched area.
Even if it's just singing an ordinary little love song.
But as long as you sing it sincerely and movingly, it is enough to touch people's hearts.
Netizens were satisfied with his opening up and lying flat in this song selection.
【My Su Bao finally found his comfort zone!】
【There's nothing wrong with staying in the comfort zone. Other singers want to sing your style, but they can't!】
【Just sing what you are good at, don't always think about breakthroughs. You are not suitable for breakthroughs!】
Even Xiao Su himself had not expected that his act of lying flat and giving up, simply enjoying the stage, would unexpectedly win the support of the audience.
And the one who appeared after Xiao Su was Xi Sister Meng Ze.
She liked listening to Xiao Su's little love songs, humming along while chewing gum, adjusting her state.
The scene was bustling with noise and excitement. Facing the singer's live performance, one could feel more details. Once the song ended, the audience's cheers were endless, and the applause was like thunder.
Netizens might not be able to tell how steady Xiao Su's performance was this time.
But Xi Sister Meng Ze, standing behind, heard it clearly.
Few mistakes, steady singing skills.
The assistant came over to interview her and asked how she viewed Xiao Su's stage performance.
Xi Sister Meng Ze smiled and said: "It sounds very good. I've heard many of his songs; they have a youthful flavor."
Assistant asked: "Then what about you? Do you feel nervous? Do you have the confidence to bring a better stage?"
Xi Sister Meng Ze shook her head: "I don't have confidence. Singing inspirational songs is not my track. I can only say I will do my best."
Many netizens were stationed in Xi Sister Meng Ze's live stream room. Hearing this sentence, they all became suspicious.
【Sounds a bit unwilling?】
【According to rumors, Xi Sister Meng Ze didn't want to give the "unlimited" to the replacement singer (shh).】
【Appearing last, I hope she can treat this stage seriously.】
The lights suddenly dimmed, and the applause on the stage gradually extinguished.
Xi Sister Meng Ze took the elevator to the center of the stage. Suddenly, a brilliant and dazzling scorching light hit, illuminating the entire stage exceptionally brightly.
Since it's an inspirational song, then be inspirational to the end.
Xi Sister Meng Ze didn't put effort into the lighting effects this time.
In the past, when singing love songs, lighting effects were also part of the music play.
But inspirational songs are generally upward and high-spirited, so from the beginning, she wanted to make her stage shine.
Xi Sister Meng Ze's clothes were also shining and brilliant.
A beam of light hit her, shining on her clothes full of broken diamonds, blingbling like a queen, just missing a crown on her head.
The queen returns, still domineering.
Xi Sister Meng Ze lifted her eyes, the first string sound rang out, and she took over and started singing.
"Nowhere to escape, no branch to rely on, walking against the wind and smiling~"
It was another performance close to a cappella, magnifying the characteristics of her singing voice.
Seeing Jin Li was filming a night scene today.
After filming, she didn't even have time to rush to the hotel and hurriedly took out her phone to watch the live stream.
Because she wanted to listen to the song, she turned the volume to the maximum, which allowed some actors and staff who hadn't left yet to also hear Xi Sister Meng Ze's singing.
Xu Wenwen couldn't help but pause her steps and leaned over.
"Seeing Jin Li, are you watching 'I Am a Singer'?"
Other staff members also looked over curiously and said one after another:
"This voice is very special!"
"Xi Sister Meng Ze's singing strength is still very strong!"
"I've heard this song she's singing; it sounds much better than the original."
Seeing Jin Li couldn't spare her mind to chat with them, tilted her head slightly, brought her ear close to the sound hole, and listened carefully.
"Unyielding, forgetting youth~
Never feared loneliness becoming a line, tears and regrets becoming a pair, heart already scalding (live harmony: scalding~)
Past wind and frost becoming a carving knife, breaking wings, still wanting to fly..."
At this time, the musical instrument sounds appeared densely, and the electric guitar played twice suddenly, leading the atmosphere to a higher climax.
"Following the direction of the light, forgetting you
Memories depreciating into the look of my stubbornness~
I want to rely on the light in this dark night
To return it to look at each other with a long song
Stepping on the river of life, not in vain, infatuated!"
Drum beats, strings, guitars... the sounds of musical instruments intertwined, like a brilliant and magnificent prologue.
And Xi Sister Meng Ze's singing voice bloomed completely in this prologue, letting everyone recognize her singing voice and ability again.
Seeing Jin Li heard the high-pitched singing at the climax, and her heart settled: Steady, steady!
At this time, she finally had the mood to look at the barrage.
【Why is she so relaxed singing everything?】
【Radiant, I want to become my own light!!】
【Feels even more at ease. Clearly, the mid-low range is her comfort zone, but she hits high notes so easily. Her vocal condition is truly good.】
【I've fallen in love with her, woo woo woo.】
Director Zhong Wentai packed up his things and was about to leave when he suddenly heard the music Seeing Jin Li was playing.
He turned his head and found that many people on the crew were gathered around Seeing Jin Li, commenting on this song.
"Really good to listen to, her timbre is quite special."
"Didn't expect that besides singing love songs, she also has a good grasp of other songs."
"'Direction of Light' isn't considered an inspirational song, right?"
Xu Wenwen said: "But looking at the lyrics, it doesn't have anything to do with love songs either. The lyrics are quite modern. I think it's quite inspirational. Once you hear this song, you have a feeling of a big heroine."
Director Zhong walked over at this time and asked: "Seeing Jin Li, who sang this song?"
Seeing Jin Li said: "Xi Sister Meng Ze, who was in the same girl group as me before."
Zhong Wentai was a bit surprised: "Your girl group had quite a lot of talent."
Seeing Jin Li smiled very happily.
Praising her sisters for being outstanding was the same as praising her for being outstanding.
"That's right, Director Zhong. Although we didn't come out through a talent show, we were also selected through many layers, and everyone has strength."
Seeing Jin Li added silently in her heart.
Hmm, except for her.
The other few people really relied on ability, but she was different; she relied on her face!
But in the entertainment industry, being beautiful is the most basic requirement for mixing in the circle.
Director Zhong smiled upon hearing this and pondered: "Your friend sings well. Push a contact method to me later, and I'll have her sing the movie promotional song."
Seeing Jin Li's eyes lit up: "Okay!"
After listening to the song Xi Sister Meng Ze sang, Seeing Jin Li took a car back to the hotel.
The phone was on as usual, listening to the host mobilizing the atmosphere, reading advertising copy, or singers scoring each other to choose the first place in their minds.
In the singer scoring session.
That replacement singer won the most votes and was chosen as first place.
The reason was nothing else; she occupied the advantage of the song. The song she sang was too correct; it was a red song that would appear in major CCTV evening parties.
In this competition, the two foreign singers performed very ordinarily, not much different from the domestic singers.
When Seeing Jin Li returned to the hotel, she finally waited until the host announced the final ranking.
Chen Qin was with her, listening curiously, and asked: "Sister Seeing Jin Li, what place will Sister Sister Meng Ze rank? Can you guess?"
Seeing Jin Li pondered for a while and guessed: "I didn't hear the performances of the previous singers, so it's hard to say, but according to Xi Sister Meng Ze's performance this time, I estimate that getting into the top three is no problem."
Although she didn't sing love songs, that feel was still there, singing out her own characteristics.
Compared to previous competitions, every singer performed very well, and Xi Sister Meng Ze could still take first place.
Her passerby popularity base is very large.
This performance was no worse than when singing love songs, so the ranking shouldn't deviate much.
"Ding-dong!" The hotel elevator door opened.
Seeing Jin Li and Chen Qin got into the elevator together.
The phone transmitted a sound at this time, and the host said in a loud voice: "Xi Sister Meng Ze, seventh place!"
Seeing Jin Li was stunned for a moment, almost thinking she heard wrong.
She turned to look at the assistant, and the assistant also looked at her with her jaw dropped.
Chen Qin asked first: "Sister Seeing Jin Li, did I hear wrong just now, or was the signal in the elevator bad, causing it to get stuck and hear wrong? Is Sister Sister Meng Ze seventh place?"
Seeing Jin Li's expression changed, but she didn't answer, instead continuing to listen to the sound from the phone.
The host announced the rankings of the others down the line, until the first place was announced, and Xi Sister Meng Ze didn't appear again.
"Ding-dong!" The elevator door reached the destination and opened.
Seeing Jin Li walked out, her expression very indifferent: "You didn't hear wrong. Meng Meng got last place."
Chen Qin couldn't help but look at Seeing Jin Li a few times.
She always felt that the boss said this, a bit wanting to hit someone.
Entering the room, after Seeing Jin Li closed the door, she immediately opened her phone and found that the big group had already chatted a lot.
This ranking also shocked them.
Seeing Jin Li didn't have time to look and directly dialed a video call.
All the friends who were chatting joined the call.
Ji Qinglian asked with some worry: "Carp, did you contact Meng Meng?"
Seeing Jin Li looked at the records: "No, she didn't send me a message. Do you want me to send her a message?"
Ji Qinglian thought for a while: "Forget it, don't send a message to disturb her, lest it add to her trouble. Her mood should be very bad right now."
Yan Xingdong had just finished his announcement. He got into the nanny car first and waited for other members to come over one after another.
Although they participated in the same announcement, the media they accepted interviews from were different, so the time they returned was also different.
He had been checking the big group more diligently than Chen Lin recently.
Before Seeing Jin Li dialed the phone, she first browsed the group messages and understood what was going on.
Yan Xingdong frowned and asked straightforwardly: "Did the production team manipulate the votes secretly?"
As soon as these words came out, the others couldn't help but be quiet for a while.
After a while, Seeing Jin Li broke the silence and said: "I personally feel it was manipulated. With her performance, it's impossible to be only seventh place."
At that time, when she heard the ranking, her first reaction was that she heard wrong.
The second reaction was: It's over, Meng Meng is definitely going to explode!
Now looking at it, no one could contact Xi Sister Meng Ze, which verified the second point.
Seeing Jin Li thought of something and said: "I'll exit the video call first and contact Sister Fang. Meng Meng should be staying with her."
"Hello, Seeing Jin Li, how was your filming today?"
Sui Lingfang answered the phone and exchanged pleasantries with her first.
Seeing Jin Li said: "It's okay, everything is going smoothly. By the way, Sister Fang, Meng Meng is with you, right?"
Sui Lingfang looked at the tightly locked door and sighed helplessly: "Yes, we are staying at a hotel near the program team. Meng Meng locked herself in the room. I called her several times, but she didn't respond."
Seeing Jin Li frowned slightly, also feeling it was tricky.
This state of Xi Sister Meng Ze is not common.
But it wasn't that it hadn't happened before in Pink Girl; it was usually when she was very sad and pessimistic that she would lock herself up.
At this time, it's useless for anyone to persuade her; she can only figure it out herself.
Sui Lingfang said: "What I'm worried about now is not this matter, but another matter. She is very skeptical about the live voting results and demands to check the vote count and verification." ===== CHAPTER 163 =====
