Chapter 18 Finalist Preliminary Round
About ten minutes later, a young man in a black suit and tie walked towards You Wei with a brown bag.
"Mr. You, this is 200,000 cash."
You Wei took the bag, didn't even look at it, and directly stuffed it to the leading boss: "After ordering, get out of here!" ”
Although You Wei's tone was a little impulsive, the leader didn't care, as long as he got the money, looking at this posture, he knew that You Wei was a rich man and couldn't afford to offend.
The leader carefully counted the stacks of cash in the bag, a total of twenty stacks, and at a glance he knew that he had just taken them out of the bank.
The leader glanced at Chen Yixu, then took out a note from his pocket and threw it to him: "Okay, Chen Yixu, this is your wife's IOU, the two are clear, brothers, go!" ”
Looking at the departing crowd, and then at Chen Yixu, who was staying in place, You Wei picked up the note from the ground.
"This is a loan shark that your ex-wife borrowed when she left?" You Wei asked Chen Yixu.
Chen Yixu nodded and replied: "Yes, she said that I should compensate her all these years, thank you You Wei, you have helped me too much." ”
You Wei put one hand on Chen Yixu's shoulder and said, "Cheer up, just think of it as my goddaughter who helped me." ”
Chen Yixu used to see a down-and-out person on TV who got rid of his down-and-out life after meeting a nobleman, to be honest, for Chen Yixu, You Wei is his nobleman.
"Teach my goddaughter well, maybe the next Asian diva will be her."
Chen Yixu looked at You Wei in surprise and asked, "Have you heard her sing?" ”
"That's right, the song "Hello Tomorrow." You Wei nodded and said, "The first song you taught her." ”
Pushing the door into the ward, Peng Xiuya and Liu Kite's faces were full of worried looks.
"What just happened? It sounds like it's noisy outside. Peng Xiuya hurriedly asked.
"Dad, are you alright?" Liu Kite saw that there was something wrong with his father's face, so he also asked.
Chen Yixu smiled lightly and said: "It's nothing, it's not too early, since the formalities have been completed, Xiuya, you help Xiao Kite clean up, and You Wei and I will wait for you outside." ”
You Wei nodded and said, "Okay, I'll send you over in a while, Xiuya, you've worked hard too, pack up in a while and go back to rest early." ”
Peng Xiuya was indeed a little tired, after all, she slept on her stomach in the ward all night last night, and her sleep effect was not very good: "That's okay, little kite, you have to come on." ”
……
Kyoto City No. 2 Gymnasium, the audition site of "The Voice of China".
There are as many people here every day as ever, and at a glance, there are crowds of people, and in the crowd, a woman wearing work clothes, melon seed face, and a work card on her chest passed through the crowd, came to a remote place outside the gymnasium, and then took out her mobile phone and started calling.
"Hey, Brother Chen, are you here?"
"Arrived? Where? Okay, I'm out there. ”
Before she could hang up the phone, Guan Fang turned her head and saw a black A6 (parallel world luxury car) parked on the side of the road not far away.
The first person to get out of the car was Chen Yixu, followed by Liu Kite.
Seeing Chen Yixu, Guan Fang immediately walked over.
"Brother Chen, this luxury car." Guan Fang looked at this car worth more than 1.7 million yuan, and was envious.
"This is my classmate's, he sent us here, the same one who told you yesterday to help me get through this." Chen Yixu explained to Guan Fang.
At this time, You Wei also got out of the car and walked over.
"This is my classmate, You Wei." Chen Yixu introduced Guan Fang to Wei Yi.
"This is my friend, Guan Fang, who is a staff member here." Chen Yixu also introduced Guan Fang to You Wei.
"Hello."
"Hello."
Although the two did not know each other, they both symbolically greeted each other.
"Sister Guan Fang." Liu Kite suddenly felt that she didn't seem to have any sense of existence, so she hurriedly called out Sister Guan Fang.
"Little girl, how is it, it's not bad." Seeing the willow kite, Guan Fang's face was suddenly filled with a smile.
After a few simple chats, Guan Fang took them to the studio in the gymnasium.
Guan Fang originally worked in the Kyoto Music Association, but because of the cooperation between the official "The Voice of China" and the Kyoto Music Association, Guan Fang was transferred to serve as the person in charge of logistics. So it's very simple for Guan Fang to help Chen Yixu skip the queue and wait for the audition.
"Brother Qiao, I'll bring two friends over in a while, yes, the two I told you yesterday, that's good."
On the way, Guan Fang made a phone call to the people on the other side of the studio.
You Wei couldn't help but joke: "It's really good to have acquaintances, you can go through the back door." ”
"Actually, I'm worried about the body of the little kite, after all, if you line up, you will have to wait for a long time, and there are too many people this year." Guan Fang turned around and said, "Brother Chen, just yesterday and this morning, more than 2,000 more players signed up for the audition. ”
More than 2,000 people, this number Chen Yixu is indeed quite surprised.
In less than two days, the number of applicants has increased by 2,000, and the audition registration is still ongoing, and it should not end until the end of the month, and the end of the month is also when the results of the preliminary round come out, when the number of applicants for the audition is at least more than 10,000.
If you want to pick out a hundred outstanding players out of 10,000 people, this time it is really one in a hundred.
The audition rules of "The Voice of China" are very simple, that is, go to the studio for a cappella singing, there are three judges in the studio, after the contestants start singing, the jury will score according to all aspects, and finally the top 100 of all the auditioners will enter the preliminary round.
The rules of the preliminary round are to randomly divide the 100 shortlisted players into 10 groups according to the serial number, and eliminate the two lowest scores in each group, leaving 80 players to enter the semi-finals.
The rules of the semi-finals are to randomly match 80 players, and the one with the highest score will be directly shortlisted for the top 50 after the two are matched, and the 40 players who have been brushed down will be ranked according to the score, and the top 10 will enter the top 50.
After the top 50 are selected, the regional qualifiers will be broadcast live on major TV stations and online platforms.
According to the rules of the competition, if you want to enter the promotion round, it actually has a lot to do with the score during the audition, so the audition is a very important link for every player participating in "The Voice of China".
Because the process of the preliminary round and the semi-final is officially carried out publicly, the black-box operation is avoided on the maximum stage, as long as you get a high enough score during the audition, then your hope of entering the promotion round is big enough!
Outside the studio, Guan Fang exchanged a few words with a short and fat staff member, and then came over and said to Chen Yixu: "Brother Chen, who is No. 896 between you and Xiao Kite?" ”
Looking at his registration card, Chen Yixu replied: "I am No. 896, and the little kite is No. 897." ”
"That's okay, Brother Chen, you go first, play well, come on." Guan Fang took Chen Yixu to the studio.
This is Studio 9, which is actually a lounge with an open door, and the inside of the gymnasium is outside the door, but a large promotional poster is placed at the door to block the situation inside the studio.
Chen Yixu walked into the studio with a guitar, and there were three judges in front of him who were dressed in fashion, two men and one woman, about thirty or forty years old, although Chen Yixu didn't know them, he still greeted them.
"Good morning, judges."
Chen Yixu came to the microphone and was about to announce the name of the song he sang, but one of the judges spoke.
"You're Chen Yixu, right?" The female judge in her forties asked.
Chen Yixu nodded and replied, "Yes, I'm No. 896 player Chen Yixu." ”
The three judges whispered, and then another male judge said, "Let's start singing." ”
Chen Yixu took a few seconds to adjust his state, adjusted the position of the microphone close to the guitar again, and Chen Yixu naturally began to find his rhythm.
"Nothing can stop you~"
At the end of the first sentence, Chen Yixu began to pluck the strings.
"Your yearning for freedom~"
"Wild Career~"
"Your heart has no worries~"
……
"Blue Lotus~"
After singing the whole "Blue Lotus", Chen Yixu put away his guitar and quietly waited for the judges' comments or scores.
The three judges seem to be still immersed in the gentle rhythm and singing of "Blue Lotus", and after selecting hundreds of contestants these days, it is the first time that they have entered the singing voice of the contestants.
and Chen Yixu's voice seemed to be magical, pulling the hearing of the three judges.
"Your singing skills can be said to be the best among the contestants I have ever seen, I haven't heard this song, can you tell me where it came from?" The male judge who asked Chen Yixu to start singing said to Chen Yixu very seriously.
"Thank you, judges, this song is called "Blue Lotus", and it is my own original song." Chen Yixu answered the judges' questions.
"Your voice, yes, that kind of vicissitudes of life, but I think you are deliberately suppressing your voice, maybe it is the need for this song, it is still very good, I like your natural feeling, and this original song is also very good." The female judge commented on Chen Yixu.
"Thank you, judges."
Chen Yixu bowed respectfully.
The two judges made a brief comment on Chen Yixu, and the third judge just shrugged his shoulders lightly and said, "What else do I have to say, your table is very good, congratulations on being shortlisted for the preliminary round." ”
"Congratulations."
"Congratulations."
The three judges quickly gave Chen Yixu a score.
The first male judge gave a score of 92.9.
The second female jury gave a score of 93.4.
The third male judge gave 91 points.
At this moment, even the photographer gave Chen Yixu a close-up shot.
"Congratulations on your 92.4 points."
Chen Yixu didn't know how good the score of 92.4 was, but if he knew that there were only three points above 90 so far, and he was the highest one, Chen Yixu would definitely be happy.
