Chapter 197: Changed to Nie Jingjing

Han Baoping's eyebrows frowned again.

He had seen too many routines of bowing to the high and trampling on the low in the entertainment industry, and he was too lazy to care, but the attitude of these people today was indeed a bit too much.

Especially since it was still being broadcast live, he was a person who paid great attention to reputation and didn't want the entire musical team to have any negative news.

And at this time, Murong Xue had already walked to the stage after being reminded.

Before she even started singing, there was a wave of "boos" in the bullet screens of the live broadcast room, brushing the screen so much that Murong Xue's face could almost not be seen.

Facing judges like Han Baoping, Murong Xue was still a bit nervous.

But as long as she opened her mouth, she would throw those interfering factors behind her.

Standing on the stage at this time, she had forgotten her nervousness, forgotten her bet with Qin Zhitong, and even forgotten that she was still auditioning.

There was only one thought in her heart, and that was to express the artistic conception she wanted to express in the lyrics.

Magically, as soon as Murong Xue opened her mouth, the bullet screens that were originally brushing the screen actually decreased by half instantly.

Except for those die-hard fans of Qin Zhitong who were still persistently brushing the screen, the passerby's bullet screens all disappeared.

In terms of singing skills, Murong Xue was not worse than Qin Zhitong. Coupled with the reminder from Xu Tian before, she paid attention to the emotions to be expressed in the lyrics. As soon as she opened her mouth, she conquered everyone's ears.

A trace of surprise appeared in Han Baoping's originally serious expression. His body leaned forward slightly, but his eyes were slightly closed, as if he was not a judge at this time, but just an ordinary audience member enjoying music.

The sense of substitution in Murong Xue's singing was simply too strong!

It made those judges who didn't look favorably on her also shocked.

After the song ended, the judge's seat didn't make a sound for a long time, until Murong Xue bowed deeply to the judge's seat, and everyone reacted.

"I've finished singing, please give me your advice, judges."

After Murong Xue finished singing a song, she withdrew from the world of music and became that little girl who was a bit shy but had stubbornness hidden in her eyes.

"Good, good! Very good!"

Han Baoping applauded excitedly and said "good" three times in a row.

He looked at Murong Xue with glowing eyes as if he had found some treasure: "You sang the feeling I wanted."

Qin Zhitong, standing off-stage, looked at Murong Xue with a livid face, looking unbelievable.

If it were before this, she would still be full of confidence, but after Murong Xue finished singing, she suddenly felt that the subsequent situation was already out of her control.

【My God, is this really a newcomer with no experience?】

【Her singing is too good!】

【I think compared to Qin Zhitong, she is more suitable to be the female lead...】

【Just now when Murong Xue was singing, I seemed to see Heavenly Xiao Tianhou when she was young. Her singing captured the charm, but it wasn't just a clumsy imitation; instead, she added her own understanding.】

Qin Zhitong's singing skills were impeccable, but she paid too much attention to singing skills and deliberately articulated, which was somewhat artificial.

Comparing like this, it further highlighted the soul in Murong Xue's singing.

"Murong Xue, when I saw the song you covered before, I felt that you had potential. Today, you really didn't disappoint me."

While other judges were still in shock, Han Baoping said calmly.

This sentence of his was equivalent to recognizing that Murong Xue's performance made him more satisfied.

Xu Tian breathed a sigh of relief. Murong Xue did it.

【Murong Xue actually defeated Qin Zhitong!】

【This is simply a shocking reversal!】

【Impossible, how could that nobody sing so well? She must have cheated!】

【Brain-dead fans, stop it. This is a public live audition. Everyone in the live broadcast room can testify.】

【I felt before that although Qin Zhitong's singing skills were good, the songs she sang simply couldn't move me, as if she was completing a task, very rigid. Now hearing Murong Xue's singing, it further confirms that my previous feeling was right!】

【Don't say Murong Xue sang ten minutes later than Qin Zhitong. Even if Qin Zhitong was given a year to practice, she couldn't surpass Murong Xue.】

Murong Xue proved herself with strength. Now in the live broadcast room, except for individual stubborn fans of Qin Zhitong, public opinion had completely reversed.

Qin Zhitong's agent, standing off-stage, held her mobile phone, looking at the bullet screen comments in the live broadcast room, trembling with anger.

This time she wanted to use Han Zhizuo's musical to hype Qin Zhitong.

And she had already prepared the news draft in advance to congratulate Qin Zhitong on successfully being selected as the female lead of Han Baoping's musical, but she didn't expect Murong Xue to be so strong. Not only did she not become a foil, but she also made her Qin Zhitong a stepping stone for others.

The most fatal thing was that the audition just now was all broadcast simultaneously, and now they didn't even have a chance to save face.

It was she who underestimated Murong Xue, but this couldn't be blamed entirely on her!

How could she have thought that someone with such strength and appearance had only one commercial song in three years since her debut and never received any announcements again?

Just based on Murong Xue's appearance, even if she was tone-deaf, she could be packaged as a traffic female idol, not to mention she still had a naturally good voice?

How could such a person still be a nobody until now?

And just at this time, Han Baoping stood up from the judge's seat and came to Murong Xue.

"I look forward to your performance next. You are the female lead in my mind."

Murong Xue was slightly startled, and then she showed a surprised expression.

"Thank you, Han Zhizuo, I will definitely work hard!"

Up to now, all the important roles of the musical "Dreamlike Rendezvous" had been determined.

And except for Qin Zhitong's fans, whether it was Heavenly Xiao Tianhou's fans or musical lovers, they were all very satisfied with this result.

Qin Zhitong had always been conceited, feeling that she was both talented and beautiful, and had high popularity, making her the best candidate for the female lead of "Dreamlike Rendezvous."

At this time, she lost to an 18th-tier nobody in front of ten million viewers in the live broadcast room, which could be said to have lost all face.

"Hmph, let's wait and see!"

Qin Zhitong walked out of the audition studio with a dark face, stepping on seven-centimeter high heels.

"Tongtong, wait for me!"

Continuing to stay here was just bringing humiliation upon herself. Qin Zhitong's agent hurriedly chased after her.

However, when she passed by Murong Xue and Xu Tian, Murong Xue suddenly stood out and blocked her way.

"Agent Zhang, did you forget our previous agreement?"

Xu Tian looked at Murong Xue with a smile that was not a smile. This girl actually became tough for the first time, which was really gratifying.

Qin Zhitong's agent's expression stagnated, and finally she gritted her teeth and said unwillingly:

"It was my fault just now. I apologize to you, but if you want to mix in the entertainment industry, it's better not to make too many enemies!"

She stiffened her neck, looking unconvinced and not recognizing Murong Xue: "Like you people who only know how to step on others to get ahead, even if you get a big production, you won't be able to get popular!"

After speaking, she gave Murong Xue a big eye-roll, then held her head high and hurried to chase Qin Zhitong.

On the other side, Xu Tian confirmed some specific cooperation processes with the production side, and then greeted Han Zhizuo before taking Murong Xue back to the company.

After returning to the company, Xu Tian first let Murong Xue go to the cafeteria to eat, while he set about preparing to sign a contract with the musical production side.

At the same time, he also had to determine Murong Xue's styling team and public relations team as soon as possible.

These should have been completed before Murong Xue's second round, but because he went to the Lighthouse Country with Tang Bingyan some time ago, the progress of selecting the team had been delayed until now.

Not long after, Murong Xue returned from the cafeteria, carrying fried rice packed for Xu Tian.

"Xu Ge, you should eat first."

Murong Xue put the lunch box on Xu Tian's desk: "Busy all day, it's almost five o'clock now, and you haven't even eaten lunch."

"Thanks, I'll eat in a while."

Xu Tian finished replying to an email and signaled Murong Xue to sit down.

"This is your first time performing in a musical, and you are the female lead. As the musical starts, many eyes will focus on you. You must withstand the pressure and perform rehearsals and performances in the best posture. As for publicity, public relations, and other aspects, you don't need to worry..."

Just as Xu Tian was instructing Murong Xue on some precautions, the newly recruited assistant An Ran rushed in. She was very flustered, so she only knocked on the door twice in a hurry and broke into the office without waiting for Xu Tian's response.

"Xu Ge, Xu Ge, it's not good!"

"What's wrong?" Xu Tian saw An Ran's anxious face and didn't blame her for breaking into the office without his permission.

"The musical production side just contacted us, saying that there is another candidate for the female lead, and they don't need Xiao Xue anymore..."

Xu Tian's expression stagnated.

"Are you saying it's true?"

Murong Xue stood up from the sofa with a pale face.

Why would they suddenly change people?

Xu Tian was worried about this situation, so he used a radical method to make Qin Zhitong agree to a public audition, the purpose of which was to prevent Qin Zhitong's agent from playing small tricks in secret.

Now Murong Xue's audition video was still on the homepage of the hot search, how could the production side easily replace Murong Xue?

"Then who was the female lead replaced with?" After a moment of surprise, Xu Tian calmed down.

"Replaced with Nie Jingjing..."

An Ran handed over a list, which was the final confirmed lineup list for the musical.

Xu Tian saw Nie Jingjing's name written where the female lead was. ===== CHAPTER 198 =====
