Chapter 031 Starvation
Chapter 031 Starvation
The lights on the stage are bright and bright, the dome emits stars, and a large crystal ball sways gracefully, flowing with brilliant colors, gently enveloping the entire stage, gorgeous and beautiful.
When Chen Shuting sang, he was always very nervous and flawless. It wasn't until it was over, when the lights dimmed and had been replaced by a clean and transparent white light, that he realized that he seemed to have walked in the clouds.
After the judges scored, he stepped back from the stage.
98 points!
Chen Shuting was happy, and thought to himself: I don't know how many relationships Lao Xie has accompanied.
Among the 98 points, there must be judges who were entrusted by Lao Xie to deliberately promote Chen Shuting. Of course, there are also judges who are sincerely satisfied and give full marks.
"Singing great!" As soon as Chen Shuting entered the lounge, someone greeted him and praised him.
When I looked closely, it was Zhou Ti.
"It's over." Chen Shuting said. As soon as he opened his mouth, he found that his throat was hoarse, steaming, chapped and painful.
Li Songling next to him handed him a throat lozenge, and Chen Shuting said thank you hoarsely.
"Hey, the three of them have high scores, and they're quite hot!" Yang Lele rolled his eyes and said vinegarly.
In the original show, Yang Lele was the starring role, and the first place was equal to the female number one. Now, she was eliminated in the first round, and she made people!
However, she knew that the resources of the company and the TV station were biased towards her, and she had other values, so she was not in a hurry, but she was uncomfortable watching Chen Shuting and the three powerful factions.
"What's hot? It's not like you're going to fight to the death in the future! Sun Yan also glanced at them coldly, sneering coldly.
"No need to be in the future, when the show is broadcast, they should fight," Yang Lele said. After the show is broadcast, the ranking of the powerful faction will definitely be controversial, after all, the audience's aesthetics are different, and if the judges give high scores, the audience may not recognize it.
At that time, the three high-scoring protagonists have not yet started to compete, and fans will fight first.
Chen Shuting didn't notice the two people muttering, and after drinking several glasses of water in a row, his throat still hurt.
Not only does his throat hurt, Chen Shuting is also hungry! He was so hungry that his stomach twisted together and he couldn't wait to forage for food. Therefore, the throat lozenges given to him by others, he chewed them three times and divided them by two.
"And the sugar?" He hoarsely asked the girl who had just kindly given him candy.
The girl was listening to the song with headphones, and she was startled when she saw him suddenly come over. Rao was frightened, but Li Songling was still very polite and gave him the remaining half of the box of throat lozenges.
Chen Shuting sat back on the sofa, gnawing one by one, like a little chipmunk, squeaking and chewing candy in the corner.
"What a man!" Yang Lele and Sun Yan were completely speechless. I've never seen such a greedy person eat throat lozenges as a snack.
Of the four players in the back, two scored 88 points and one scored 85; The last contestant named Qin Mingyuan, because the song was very difficult, and he himself had no suitable ideas, he sang miserably, and the judge gave him face and scored 80 points.
The eliminators are Yang Lele, Sun Yan and Qin Mingyuan.
After the performance, all of their contestants take the stage to record the final results, although the results have already been announced.
There is also a special ceremony for the top three.
The show is completely over, and it is already six o'clock in the afternoon, nearly dusk.
A round of tomorrow is slowly sinking in the west, sprinkling the afterglow of fire on the world. The sunset melts gold, the sunset shines brightly, and the whole earth is covered with a layer of warm and bright scorching gold, dazzling and brilliant.
Chen Shuting, Lao Xie and Xiao Ling walked out of the TV studio, standing on the high marble steps, and the slingering sunset immediately enveloped his body, like a radiant brocade robe.
"Let's eat!" Chen Shuting jumped into the car in a hurry.
"In the evening, the program group has a dinner." Lao Xie couldn't cry or laugh, stood next to the car and said, "Do you want to wait no longer?" ”
"Let's go eat a bowl of noodles first!" Chen Shuting said, "No, I'm dying of hunger"
He used a hoarse voice and kept shouting that he was hungry, and he looked like a child waiting to be fed, which was very pitiful.
Old Xie softened his heart and agreed: "Let's go eat first!" ”
Chen Shuting was very happy, and so was the foodie Xiaoling.
Xiao Ling drove all the way to a restaurant approved by Lao Xie, and found a corner to sit down.
"Let's have eight treasure crab rice first!" Chen Shuting said to the waiter, "Eat the dishes slowly." ”
"Okay." The waiter turned around and gave the order before coming back to order them.
Lao Xie and Xiao Ling ordered five dishes, one soup, and no drinks.
The eight-treasure crab rice is served first and served in a small wooden barrel, and the rice is fragrant. Chen Shuting quickly filled a big bowl with his hands and feet, and ate it quickly.
"Why are you so hungry?" Lao Xie couldn't help but be surprised when he saw that he didn't raise his head or open his eyes when he ate it, and he was completely a little piglet who was just grabbing food.
"I don't know Brother Xie, do you remember the night of the live show three months ago, I also feel this way, I'm about to go crazy hungry" Chen Shuting took a mouthful of food and told Lao Xie vaguely.
Lao Xie disliked his uncourteous eating appearance: "Okay, okay, eat yours, stop talking!" ”
Chen Shuting really stopped talking.
After the food was served, Lao Xie and Xiao Ling chatted while eating, while Chen Shuting was very focused on eating.
"Do you really want to broadcast on time on the 28th, Brother Xie?" Xiao Ling asked Lao Xie. Today on the 23rd, it was just recorded, and there were only more than four days of editing and editing in the later stage, and Xiao Ling felt that it was too hasty.
"It's definitely on time. However, the production aspect is inevitably rough, they used to spend more than half a month to produce one issue, but now it is only four days, and there will definitely be mistakes. ”
"Then you have to be scolded again!" Xiao Ling sighed and said.
"Why do you always care about being scolded? For the show, it is a good thing to be scolded, which means that there is attention! is a really bad show, and the audience doesn't bother to scold. They expect it, they will be dissatisfied, they will scold, you know? Lao Xie felt that Xiao Ling's mentality was not good.
Xiao Ling was always afraid of being scolded, and Lao Xie was afraid that he would infect Chen Shuting.
As an artist, you need to understand a truth: when you are the most popular, you are also the blackest. Once the popularity skyrockets, the scolding will swarm, and the rumors and dirty water will be splashed everywhere. What artists should be afraid of is not being scolded, but loneliness.
If no one scolds, that's miserable!
What's the point of being scolded? Someone scolded, which shows that there is heat, and there is heat, and there is vitality in the entertainment industry.
"Netizens are scolding." Xiao Ling said, "Aren't I afraid that Brother Chen will be implicated? ”
The two of them talked for a long time, and when they looked up, the plate in front of them was almost gone, and they were both slightly stunned.
Chen Shuting took advantage of the small talk between the two of them to sweep away the dishes on the table, and there was only a little scrap left on each plate. The dishes in this house are expensive and taste good, but the portions are small and can't stand being eaten.
"Damn, we haven't eaten yet!" Xiao Ling was anxious. After saying a word, all the dishes on the table are gone, no one can bear this, not to mention that Xiao Ling is still a foodie!
"There's a dinner party in the evening." Chen Shuting didn't feel guilty at all.
said that the three of them came out to eat, but in fact, Chen Shuting ate alone.
Xiao Ling was angry, knocked on the table with chopsticks, and counted Chen Shuting in pain: "Brother Chen, you are too unreliable, what about the blessings and hardships that you say?" ”
"Unlucky child, can you die if you stutter less?" Chen Shuting raised his hand and seized his chopsticks.
In the end, the soup came up, and Xiao Ling drank three bowls of soup in a row, and his anger calmed down a little.
After recording this episode of the show, after the dinner in the evening, everyone got together, chatted for a while, and said something about the scene, and the director and director went to Chen Shuting's room at ten o'clock in the evening and chatted a few words in private.
The gist of the small talk is: "Control your emotions, don't be pleased, the ranking of the show can't be leaked, once it is leaked and the source is traced, legal responsibility will be investigated." ”
"The high-ranking ones are scared, and the low-ranked ones are afraid of anger, so they come to appease them one by one." Chen Shuting thought to himself.
Then, Chen Shuting agreed that he and his assistant and agent would never leak secrets.
The next day, Chen Shuting, Lao Xie and Xiaoling rushed back to Donghu and waited for the program team to inform them of the time to go to Hangzhou for recording next time.
This show is very rushed, whether it is the contestants or the later stage, there is a sense of being chased by others, and there is no more leisurely and comfortable than before.
After all, in the danger period.
"Bai Qinian praises you." After returning to Donghu, Chen Shuting and Xiaoling stayed at Lao Xie's house and did not leave, followed by eating, and Lao Xie also chatted about some work matters by the way.
"Praise me for my good singing skills?" Chen Shuting was not the slightest surprised.
"Yes." Lao Xie said, "Bai Qinian has a high vision, and he can praise you, which means that he is really optimistic about your future." He called me and asked if you would like to pick up the company's platter concert. ”
"No!" Chen Shuting immediately refused, "Brother Xie, let's say okay, after this show, we will take the film and television route in the future." I really don't want to sing anymore, I want to act. ”
Chen Shuting has been on the set for more than ten years, and he has also played some inconsequential roles, and the rest of the time he is doing martial arts instruction.
He thinks that he has seen a lot and figured out a lot, and sometimes he needs to assist the actors to try out before the actual shooting, and his acting skills are very good. At that time, he pleaded with Director Zhao many times to ask Director Zhao to give him a role.
Director Zhao thinks that Chen Shuting's kung fu is very good, but his appearance is not good. An actor is not so easy to be, a successful martial arts instructor is more dignified than a down-and-out actor.
Therefore, Director Zhao always tactfully persuaded Chen Shuting to do a good job of martial arts instruction with peace of mind, and if he gets ahead in this industry, there will be opportunities in the future.
The martial arts instructor relies on Chen Shuting's true skills, and whether the actor can become famous or not only accounts for a small part of the strength, and the vast majority depends on the opportunity.
Opportunities are unreliable, and not everyone can encounter them. Actors with superb acting skills but who can't become popular, the entertainment industry has grabbed a lot of them, and they are not as decent as Chen Shuting.
Director Zhao also stumbled when he was young, and saw a lot of young people who were so ambitious.
He cherished Chen Shuting and admired him for practicing that kung fu, so he always persuaded Chen Shuting not to face Qin Duchu.
However, everyone is friends, and they can't give Chen Shuting too much face, Director Zhao has been asked by him too many times, so he has to give him a few small roles and let him try his feelings.
"The quality of this drama is very high, even passers-by are playing." The small roles that Chen Shuting played in the past were either completely ignored, or directly summarized as passers-by, and no one would notice him anyway.
He really wants to act and play a starring role, which is probably an ideal he once couldn't ask for.
Lao Xie always said that what artists should be afraid of is not being scolded, but loneliness. No one mentions you, no one remembers you, and no one even scolds you, Chen Shuting understands this feeling.
"Okay, I've got it in my heart." Chen Shuting refused very quickly, and Lao Xie understood what he was thinking about and didn't say anything more.
On June 26th, the program team asked Chen Shuting to hand in the songs to be sung in the next issue. Whether it is a cover of other people's songs, or your own company's original and unpublished ones, you need to hand over the arrangement to the program team in advance.
"When is the latest to deliver?" Chen Shuting asked.
"The rehearsal starts on July 1st, and you can leave it to us before the rehearsal." Miss Wan, who contacted Chen Shuting, said.
"Then I'll hand it over on the 30th." Chen Shuting said. Their program will be broadcast on the 28th, Chen Shuting wants to see what the audience thinks of him, and then according to the evaluation, decide what song to sing in the next issue.
In a blink of an eye, it was the 28th, and at half past nine in the evening, "The Voice of Idols" was broadcast on time.
Chen Shuting, Lao Xie and Xiao Ling all sat on the sofa in the living room of Lao Xie's house and watched.
