CH 30.2

The first couple to appear is Lin Xinxiang and Liu Zhongming. They are both in the vocal groups. One is good at lyrical songs and the other is R&B.

Finally, because Liu Zhongming was too young and he was not as proficient in singing lyrical songs as Lin Xinxiang, the two sang a song ‘Sweet Love’ that was more R&B style.

The tune is melodious and flexible, with a touch of laziness. The humming of Lin Xinxiang in the prelude adds some interest to this song.

“I want to talk to you in a high voice…

(I want to tell you)

You will be my sweetheart forever…

(You will always be my sweetheart)

(You will always be my sweetheart)”

“Oh…” The duet of the two of them in the treble part is perfect.

Until the end came, the audience applauded thunderously.

Zhang Ning came to the two of them and chatted with each other, and then 500 public judges scored.

Finally, a delightful number of 423 points appeared on the big screen. Lin Xinxiang and Liu Zhongming were ecstatic with excitement on their faces. They never expected that they would get such a high score when they first appeared. They thanked all the on-site public judges.

The two took the lead for the time being and ascended to the ‘Black Gold Throne’. When Liu Zhongming sat on it, he reached out his hand childishly to check for dust on the seat.

At this moment the camera cuts over, Lin Xinxiang did not see the dark camera staring at their faces. She saw that Liu Zhongming had ADHD, so she quickly persuaded Liu Zhongming to sit quietly, enjoy this moment and have a good time, lest you have to go down later. After hearing this, Liu Zhongming nodded seriously.

The funny conversation between the two was captured by the camera and put on the show, which made the fans and the audience watching the show burst into laughter. They are two foolish people.

The perfect opening performance of the two can be regarded as a good start for the ensuing melee.

But then there were five dance songs in a row, which made the 500 public judges at the scene and the audience in front of the screen bewildered.

Chen Yi and Hong Shiyu are the second to appear. Especially Chen Yi, who is highly anticipated. Last week, the stage ‘Trouble Maker’, which he collaborated on with Jiang Ting, exploded. In just two weeks, his Weibo followers rose from about 200,000 to 3.08 million, envying the other trainee fans.

Of course, Jiang Ting’s popularity increased even higher. In two weeks, the number of fans on Weibo increased from 2 million to more than 7 million. It can be seen that the advantages brought by a hit song are terrible. Even so, the follow-up bonus of the song is still in the process of fermenting.

Even if you are not a fan of Chen Yi, the audience, who watched the performance of ‘Trouble Maker’ in the last episode, paid more attention to Chen Yi’s performance in this episode.

They waited quietly, only to see a song announcement on the video.

Song: ‘Goodbye’

Vocal: Chen Yi, Hong Shiyu

Dance group: EX Dance Company

…

Slightly similar to the beginning of the ‘Trouble Maker’ stage, the white fog is looming. Immediately afterward, the luxurious and exquisite set booths built by the program team with huge sums of money for each group of couples appeared in front of everyone.

On a cool dark red stage, Hong Shiyu appeared on the stage wearing a red bust-wrapped sexy top and hot shorts. A group of female backup dancers in black stage costumes surrounded her and performed a wonderful sexy dance solo.

Then, the door behind her opened. Chen Yi wore a red jacket and black trousers, appeared with a male backup dancer, and also danced a wonderful solo dance.

The audience nodded as they watched, thinking that he was indeed the dark horse who went from the last to the second.

But what happened next was a big disappointment.

The two performed vigorous songs and dances on the stage. The songs were sung by one person and then sung in chorus. There was no mistake, the dance movements were even more uniform, and the stage was performed to the extreme. But somehow it made people feel dull.

Especially the climax of the song. The two people’s cooperative dance is not like the dance in that Chen Yi and Jiang Ting cooperated before. But each dance separately, which seems to have no passion and no spark. As if the two are unrelated individuals, making people feel bored.

There was nothing wrong with this stage, but it was less brilliant. Many audiences were looking forward to it, wanting to see a fairy stage similar to Chen Yi and Jiang Ting last time, where you come and go, are hot, and both sides are full of hormones. As a result, the effect of the performance was mediocre and had no sense of CP, which made the on-site public judges feel disappointed and abstained from voting directly.

Three minutes later, the song came to an end, and there was sparse applause from the scene.

Zhang Ning looked at the two of them sweating profusely and panting. She could not bear it, so she asked them to canvass for votes.

A few minutes later, the red number ‘398’ on the big screen not only blinded the eyes of Chen Yi and Hong Shiyu but also blinded the eyes of the fans of the two in front of the screen.

Especially the fans of Chen Yi, who almost went crazy with anger, frantically swiping the screen on the barrage.

“Shady, this is absolutely shady.”

“The program team is biased tonight, what about f*cking explosion-proof.”

“Such a good performance, are the people who voted blind? Or is it a certain fan who is making trouble?”

But soon, Chen Yi fans woke up. Because they found that not only their family was given such a low score, but also the five consecutive groups of couples who performed dance music-style, all received extremely low scores.

The third appearance, Xin Jiu and Ji Aijun, mixed dance music with hip-hop, which was simply unsightly. The public judges directly gave the lowest votes so far, 348 votes.

Lei Yunyun and Sheng Kai, who followed closely behind, performed a powerful song and dance without the slightest mistake. Especially Lei Yunyun, her performance simply impressed her fans. She really made great progress.

On the barrage, her company’s navy rhythm flew up and it was well received. Many passers-by almost believed the ‘Swing’ performed by Lei Yunyun and Sheng Kai this time, was comparable to the god-level stage ‘Trouble Maker’ performed by Jiang Ting and Chen Yi in the third episode. But when the scores of the public judges appeared, the faces of the navy and the two fans were swollen.

Zhang Ning was surprised when she saw the voting scores behind her. But then she adjusted her expression and smiled.

“Congratulations, you received 359 votes from the public judges.”

The people who performed after them were Xu Ya and Xu Zhengxuan.

Xu Ya has a strong personality and chose the dance music stage from the beginning. But Xu Zhengxuan is hot-tempered and he does not like to listen to criticism. The two have constant friction in getting along and there are so many conflicts in the pre-match video that they can overflow.

Now Xu Zhengxuan’s fans, who scolded Lin Xinxiang for sucking blood before, began to miss Lin Xinxiang who did not cause trouble and scolded Xu Ya for being aggressive.

Unfortunately, Xu Ya’s fans are not as easy to bully as Lin Xinxiang. After being “taught” by Xu Jiayin’s fans before, their tearing ability has risen decisively. Xu Zhengxuan’s fans jumped in front of them and Xu Ya’s fans picked out all the black spots of Xu Zhengxuan in the show.

Turn around to watch the show again, after the pre-match video, the effect of the two people’s performance on the stage is beyond words.

Xu Zhengxuan is not suitable for dancing at all. Even after seven days of practice, it is not easy for him to complete a dance. Maybe finishing a dance is not the same as being able to dance well.

For example, when Chen Yi made a very sexy wave movement full of male hormones, Xu Zhengxuan made it very stiff. Even if it was stiff, it gave people a feeling of a lady, so that the eyes of the public judges were almost blinded by Xu Zhengxuan.

The two followed in the footsteps of Xin Jiu and Ji Aijun and won the last place in the audience with a ‘good score’ of 326 points.

After the two came to the ‘normal zone’ where the contestants were seated, their expressions were extremely bad and gloomy.

After that, it was the turn of the sixth group of couples, Meng Yu and Luo Tianning.

After the pre-match video of the two of them ended, the stage began to play. It was still a dance music style, but compared to Xu Ya’s group, they improved a lot.

Meng Yu’s strength has always been good and she has drawn back the attention of some audiences. Even during the performance, she said a quick rap and forced herself to add drama. Coupled with Luo Tianning’s flawless performance, in general, the two of them did not hold back.

But the score is still very low, 367 points. With such a low score, Meng Yu’s group is currently in third place among all couples who have performed.

All the fans on the bullet screen were annoyed. They could not figure out how the public judges give scores in this episode.

For example, Chen Yi fans dissed them directly.

“Chen Yi and Hong Shiyu performed so well but they only gave 398 points. Are the public judges blind?”

Another example is Xu Ya’s fans, who do the opposite and connote others.

“Lin Xinxiang and Liu Zhongming are just light-hearted R&B songs and they can get 423 points. Is there really nothing tricky about it?”

Even Lei Yunyun fans are a little dissatisfied.

“How much progress has our family Yunyun made this time, and only got 348 points. This is definitely aimed at.”

Fans did not believe that the number of votes from the public judges was correct and there are even people who diss Lin Xinxiang and Liu Zhongming for fake votes on the barrage. The two fans were so angry that they wanted to jump on their feet and could only scold a group of red-eyed diseases1, who were not good to see people.

But soon, the barrage calmed down again.

Because the long-awaited collaboration stage between Jiang Ting and Xu Jiayin is coming.
