Next, everyone enters the formal rehearsal stage. Due to Xiao Yao's prior reminder, the musicians were no longer stunned when they heard Xiao Yao's female voice, and stopped playing in their hands.

Compared with the previous song, Xiao Yao's song does not have a very casual and improvisational thing prepared for the live version, but the fact that one person sings both male and female timbres makes Xiao Yao's performance of this song attractive enough.

Xiao Yao practiced with the musicians and harmony singers for a while, and after feeling that the performance effect of the ensemble had reached a certain level, he ran back to the musicians of Cordy Scott and rearranged "Theremedy" with them. After lining up there a few times, Xiao Yao ran back again.

After running back and forth like this a few times, David Green's preparation time for Xiao Yao and BTBS has also arrived. The staff came over to inform the other stars that the rehearsals were all over, and it was time for Xiao Yao and BTBS to perform on the stage of the alternate program.

Since it is only a rehearsal for the performance program of the awards ceremony, it is not a recording of any program, and the two parties do not have to go to the backstage lounge to wait or anything. While one party performs on stage, the other party can sit in the audience under the stage and watch.

Xiao Yao had to carry musical instruments here, and in order to save time, David Green arranged for the Korean group BTBS, which sang and danced with accompaniment, without using musical instruments. The staff conveyed that David Green meant to ask Xiao Yao to come over with Cordie Scott and Nicky Thompson to watch the Korean group perform with the others, and the band would come back with the instruments.

When Xiao Yao and the three of them entered the performance hall, there were already many people in the performance hall. Seven members of the BTBS were already standing on stage to warm up their hands and feet, while below the stage, some were seated in the front rows of the audience, including David Green. The three of them saw the situation clearly and walked to David Green's location.

Seeing Xiao Yao and the three approaching, David Green stood up and greeted him.

"Jan, tell you about you and btbspk's judgment this time!" After greeting the three of them, David Green pointed to the people around him and said to Xiao Yao.

The people around David Green are all stars in the American music scene, and Xiao Yao basically knows them, but they only met in private, and it was the first time.

The stars were all performers at the ceremony, and the rehearsal was scheduled behind Nicky Thompson. During the rehearsal, I heard that Hopson was unexpectedly ill and hospitalized, and two groups of stars wanted to replace him as a guest performer, and they also had to perform PK for live stage performances, and several people expressed their willingness to stay and watch after the rehearsal. When David Green saw that they were willing to stay and watch, of course, he couldn't ask for it, and not only agreed, but also pulled them together to judge.

"Cordy, Nicky, you two are not in the lineup. After Xiao Yao finished greeting several American celebrities, David Green said to Cordy Scott and Nicky Thompson, "You two can stay here and watch together, but you don't have the right to vote, so it's better not to express your opinion." ”

"Why?" said Nicky Thompson, "we're both performers! Why can't we have an opinion?"

"Because you have already made your position clear, and you are clearly on Young's side. David Greene said, "Jan is the stage manager that Nicky brought in, you brought it, and you have a personal relationship. Although Cordy only met Jan tonight, the musicians used for Young's performance were Coardy's musicians, and Coardy definitely wanted Young to be a guest performer. Both of you will be biased towards Yang, so your opinions lack impartiality. ”

"Okay, I don't care, I agree!" Cordy smiled nonchalantly, and continued, "But I'm a little curious as to why you only mentioned Jan using my musician and not Jan using Nicky's player." Didn't your people tell you that Jan had prepared two songs, two performances?"

"What? Jan prepared two performances?" surprised David Green. He really didn't know.

"I knew that even if I were to replace Hopson, I would only have a chance to perform one song at the awards ceremony. Xiao Yao said, "I prepared two songs, just to give you one more chance to choose." Not only can you choose whether you are the guest performer or BTBS, but if you choose me, you can also choose which song I want to perform. I don't think you guys would mind spending a few more minutes listening to one more song, would you?"

"This~" David Green hesitated.

"Jan is going to perform twice, it's not fair to BTBS!" John Lee said on the side.

As BTBS's agent, John Lee certainly doesn't have the right to vote, but he can also watch the performances of both sides, and he is also in the audience next to David Green. Like Cordy Scott and Nicky Thompson, he is not in a position to speak after the show, but he can still speak for his artists before the show.

"I don't think there's anything unfair. Cordy Scott said, "The preparation time is the same for both sides..."

"No, look at the clothes they're wearing, and look at the clothes Jan is wearing," Cordy Scott paused abruptly and gestured to the seven people on stage, "I even suspect you've been preparing longer than Jan." ”

At this time, the clothes worn by the seven people on the stage were different from those seen by Cordy Scott after the rehearsal, and they were obviously all dressed in different costumes. They are also coming to see the rehearsal, so how can they have special performance clothes to change? It is likely that they have been prepared for this for a long time, so they have actually prepared for a longer time.

"We only heard from Robertson about Mr. Hopson's admission before you did. John Lee said anxiously.

"So you have been preparing for a longer time than Jan. "I'm talking about being mentally prepared, not just rehearsing time. ”

"Well, I'll agree with Jan to put on two shows. David Green said, "Since Jan has put his mind to it, we always have to listen to it." Like Young said, we can have one more choice, and we don't care about spending a few more minutes listening to him sing one more song. ”

"Mr. Lee," David Green said, turning to John Lee, "if you don't need extra time to rehearse, you can do another one as soon as you finish it, and you can do two performances in a row without us having to wait for you to rehearse." ”

"Performing without rehearsal is disrespectful to the stage!" said John Lee.

"So be it, you put on one show, and Jan put on two. David Green turned to several celebrities and said, "Guys, the substitute performer we selected only has the opportunity to perform one song at the awards ceremony, so let's see which of these three performances is more suitable for the awards ceremony, and we can't superimpose the two performances of Young, because he has performed two performances and is more biased towards him!"

"OK, no problem!" said several celebrities.

They had all heard of Jan Shaw's name and some of his deeds, and they were also curious about the Chinese star. can watch one more of his performances, and they naturally have no opinion.

John Lee saw that David Green said so, and the stars agreed, so they didn't say anything more.

Everyone has no opinion, and the next thing is the performance of BTBS in the stands. As everyone sat down in the audience, David Green waved to the sound engineer.

When the seven Korean idols on the stage saw that all the people in the audience were seated, and the staff next to the stage also gave them gestures, they stopped warming up, took their respective positions on the stage, set up the starting posture of the dance, and prepared to perform.

The sound of music sounded in the stereo of the scene, and the seven people on the stage moved. There is no band on stage, and their performance is singing and dancing.

The seven people did not wear a microphone, and all of them sang and danced with microphones in hand. Xiao Yao could hear that only a small number of treble parts in the accompaniment had some vocals, and the vocals on the stage were larger than those in the accompaniment, which was basically equivalent to a full-open microphone performance. I have to say that this combination can achieve certain success in Europe and the United States, and its own strength is still very strong. The full open microphone sang and danced at the same time, and actually sang very steadily.

They sang an English song, but the music and dance style were clearly typical of Korean electronic dance music. From the perspective of curiosity, this foreign style and performance style has a certain freshness for European and American audiences, so this group can also be said to be popular in Europe and the United States in recent years. However, Europe and the United States are different from China, and Europe and the United States have not blown a large-scale Hallyu style like Asian countries such as Huaxia, nor have they followed South Korea's example to launch various singing and dancing idol groups, so the popularity and popularity of this style of things in Europe and the United States are limited.

Therefore, even if this stage performance of this group is quite good in Xiao Yao's opinion, Xiao Yao does not feel much pressure. Fundamentally speaking, Xiao Yao's live show of performing a live band and playing and singing live is what most music fans in Europe and the United States really like.

After the btbs finished their performance, they all bowed to the audience under the stage. After a brief thank you for their performance, David Green asked them to step down and instructed the staff to set up the stage and put their instruments up.

Xiao Yao saw that the musicians of the band were on stage, and he didn't sit idly below, but ran to the stage to help get instruments and equipment together.

David Green didn't take this time to ask others what others thought of the Korean group's performance, and no one stood up to speak publicly, but just watched the people on the stage busy, at most, they tilted their heads and whispered a few words to the people around them while watching.

It didn't take long for the stage to be ready. Xiao Yao put on an acoustic guitar on his back and stood in front of a standing microphone at the front.

"This song is called "The Remedy"!" Xiao Yao briefly introduced, and nodded back to several musicians.

The drummer of the drum kit taps the hi-hat, the keyboardist and the electric guitarist get up and the show begins.

As soon as the melody composed of these three instruments came out, several people sitting in the audience below unconsciously adjusted their sitting postures. It seems that purely from the melody and style, Xiao Yao's song is even more attractive to them.

In the first ten seconds of the song's prelude, Xiao Yao's acoustic guitar was not involved. In this short period of ten seconds, Xiao Yao did not stand like this with the guitar on his back, but turned sideways, bent slightly, stretched out his palms together, and bent the upper arms and forearms of the two arms at right angles, swinging in turn before and after the guitar, strangely imitating the movements of the robot.

"Ha!" Seeing Xiao Yao's funny movements, the people in the audience below chuckled.

"At this point, he still has to improvise?" Kordy Scott and Nicky Thompson looked at each other, and Kordy Scott shook his head and smiled.

Both of them had seen Xiao Yaopai's song just now. When rehearsing just now, Xiao Yao didn't have this funny action in this place.

Although there was no TV station program team to shoot this rehearsal, there were cameras on the scene for the rehearsal effect. Seeing Xiao Yao's performance, a rocker camera on the side of the stage immediately pushed towards Xiao Yao, and then a close-up of Xiao Yao's facial expression was displayed on the background wall of the electronic screen at the back of the stage.

"Looking at his state, I think he must be better than the Korean group at least mentally!" Nicky Thompson said as he looked at Xiao Yao's expression on the big screen.

"Of course!" laughed Cordie Scott, "and even if we couldn't vote, I didn't think he'd lose." ”

The performance of the latter judges also seems to confirm Cordy Scott's statement. After the start of the second verse of the main song, which is accelerated by the variation, several celebrities who are judges seem to be infected by the song, and they start to move while sitting in their seats. When Xiao Yao's tongue at the end of the first sentence of the second main song came out, some of the stars even let out laughter and exclamations.

After that, Xiao Yao's state and speed of speech when singing, the meaningless humming in the chorus of the chorus, and the sudden acceleration of the third main song of the song, which is faster than the second main song, almost comparable to the singing speed of rap, all made the stars in the audience below more and more excited the more they listened.

When Xiao Yao's performance of this song ended, there was a round of applause in the audience.

Although several stars feel that they can already decide how to choose, there is a song behind Xiao Yao, and David Green did not speak, so several stars did not speak, just applauded, waiting for Xiao Yao's next performance.

David Green and several celebrities have just heard Cordy Scott say that Xiao Yao's two songs are performed by two different sets of musicians, and they are not surprised by the change of musicians and instruments on the stage after Xiao Yao's singing, and they are not impatient, quietly waiting for them to be ready.

"The title of this song is called "lucky"!" Xiao Yao briefly introduced the title of the song as usual, turned around and nodded to the musicians, and began to perform.

The intro part of this song is very short, and Xiao Yao is responsible for the acoustic guitar he holds. Xiao Yao played the prelude for two bars and then began to sing.

When Xiao Yao sang this song, his movements and demeanor were different from the previous song. The rocker camera at the scene pushed over again to give a close-up, and the people below saw Xiao Yao's expression when he sang. The time interval between Xiao Yao's singing of the two songs at this time was much shorter than during the previous rehearsal. Just now, Cordy Scott and Nicky Thompson were shocked by the speed and complete change of Xiao Yao's performance, and now these people in the audience are naturally equally surprised.

Of course, the most surprising part of Xiao Yao's performance is that he shows two different genders. When he sang the second half of the first verse of the song, a female voice came out of the live speakers, and the audience unsurprisingly burst into exclamations.

"Oh my God! is this the sound that Yang sings?" the eyes of the crowd in the audience widened in disbelief.

The song was played and sung live, and no pre-recorded background music was played. They sat in the front row of the audience, relatively close to the stage, and they could clearly see that when the female voice appeared, several harmony singers on the stage did not speak, but Xiao Yao's mouth was moving. This scene really subverted their cognition.

The musicians and harmony singers on the stage had rehearsed with Xiao Yao and had already experienced this shock, so the performance on the stage was not affected by the exclamations from the audience, and continued smoothly.

In the second half of the third verse, the female voice reappeared, and the audience once again resounded with exclamations. But this time, there was less doubt and more exclamation in the eyes of several celebrities. Because of the two appearances in a row, they have basically determined that the woman's voice is really from Xiao Yao.

"Okay, let's vote first!" After Xiao Yao's second song performance, David Green stood up and said to several of the judging stars, "I guess you have something to say to Yang, and you have questions to ask Yang, but first, I need a result." So everyone only talks about the results, not about feelings, not about the reasons, and don't affect others!"

"I choose Young!" said one of the celebrities.

"Which one?" asked David Green.

"Personally, I prefer the later song "Lucky", but as a performance program for the awards ceremony, I think "The Remedy" would be more suitable!" the star thought for a moment and said, "I choose 'The Remedy'!"

"OK," David Green nodded and continued, "Next!"

"I chose Young's 'The Remedy!'" another star said.

"I chose Young's 'Lucky!'" said the third star.

"I chose Young's 'The Remedy!'" said the fourth.

"No suspense!" said Cordy Scott, smiling at Nicky Thompson.
