Chapter 9: Playing the Field

"Hello, is it Mr. Chen Yuchen?!"

"I am, you are?!" Chen Yu asked.

"Mr. Chen, I am a staff member of Huaxia CCTV's good songs, and I want to inform you that the competition will be held on CCTV at one o'clock in the afternoon the day after tomorrow, I hope Mr. Chen can arrive on time!"

"Okay, no problem! Thank you! Chen Yu said.

"You're welcome, then, Mr. Chen, I'll hang up first!"

Hanging up the phone, Chen Yu breathed a sigh of relief, is it finally coming?

On May 21, the good song that Chen Yu was looking forward to finally ushered in the first competition.

"Hello Mr. Chen, please follow me to the waiting hall to prepare." When Chen Yu took out the registration form, the staff politely took Chen Yu into the waiting room.

There weren't a lot of people in attendance, just over 30 people.

Everyone's expressions were similar, nervous, and apprehensive.

Chen Yu found a place where no one sat down and waited quietly, he was confident in his songs, although he didn't know what the music aesthetics of the people in this world were, but it was not difficult to see from the two-handed folk songs he released that there should not be a big difference.

Although his song is not as famous as those classic hits, it is definitely a highly regarded song.

At half past twelve, the people who had begun to be silent had begun to open up the conversation.

But Chen Yu remained silent, not because he didn't want to, but because he didn't know how to say something to these arrogant people.

"Dear participants, there are still ten minutes left to start the competition, and now that the mentor is in place, you should also get ready!" At this time, the staff walked in and said loudly.

The waiting hall, which had been a little chaotic and noisy just now, suddenly became much quieter, although there were a few whispers in the occasional voice. But the solemnity and nervousness on his face are self-evident.

Chen Yu's number is 010, and Su should be the tenth.

In the waiting hall there is a large 55-inch TV and a pair of very good stereos.

The first contestant was a student in his twenties who was supposed to be a student at a conservatory.

There is no self-introduction, and each tutor has a huge display board in front of him, which is to prevent the tutor from watching people's choices, but to facilitate the tutor to read the lyrics.

"Hip-hop!" Chen Yu thought of such a song at the beginning of the music.

It tightly bundled music, dance, graffiti, and costumes together, and became the strongest youth style in the 90s of the 20th century.

However, on the whole, the United States of America is the birthplace of hip-hop, and it is still the mainstream way to wear it, and low-key, minimalist Japanese-style hip-hop is a niche trend. As mainstream brands such as Sean, John, and Mecca gradually adjust their brand strategies and design styles, the East Coast of New York pays more attention to the sense of sophistication in wearing and matching. The American style is as cheerful, bright and free as California, and a winter hat T (hooded T-shirt) and summer T-shirt can be worn with pants, but it attaches great importance to the graffiti on the clothes, and even uses it as a tool to convey the worldview.

In fact, at the beginning, Chen Yu had this idea when he saw the clothes on it, but he was not sure, but he was sure when the music began.

It's just that his hip-hop style is a little unbearable for Chen Yu, and it is completely mixed with English and Chinese.

However, the key of the music is still very good, at least it makes a lot of audiences like it very much.

Through Guò TV, Chen Yu saw that the four tutors frowned a little, and sometimes stretched a little. At the end of the day, the mentor Liu Huan pressed the select button, which may be a requirement for the effect of the show, and he must choose this time, because if the first one is not given, it may put pressure on the players behind.

It's also possible that he's going to explore the hip-hop genre.

"Hallo, tell us about yourself!" At this time, as the only female tutor among the four mentors, Jian Ya covered her mouth and said softly.

"Hello everyone, my name is Ge Ziming, and I am a first-year student at Kunyang Conservatory of Music. Thank you! Ge Ziming introduced himself briefly and clearly.

"Freshman? To be honest, this song is very good, hip-hop style, I like it very much, you are mine, but some of the music processing doesn't seem to be very good, I feel that your hip-hop style is better not to be interspersed with Chinese and English, to be exact, don't be so chaotic interspersed, because that gives people very abrupt, too much change is difficult to accept, for example, a song by Mr. Kinya is only interspersed with a sentence iloveyou, baby! It's a fresh feeling. What about you?! After Liu Huan finished speaking, he looked at Hua Jian.

"Well, what Brother Huan said is very good, the Chinese and English interspersed should be moderate, the quality of this song is good, but the English interspersed is a little abrupt, and it is a good song after the modification!" Hua Jian echoed.

"Thank you, thank you Teacher Huajian, Tutor Liu Huan!"

"Ziming, Hua Jian and Brother Huan have all said, I just mention one point, hip-hop style, it is very important to have its own characteristics, but you have to consider the habitual logic, it will be good for you!" Yang Kun pursed his lips and muttered such a sentence for a long time.

"Okay, thank you Mentor Yang Kun"

"I'm like them, but I love the way you perform!" Kinya Road.

"Thank you, Mentor Kinya!"

"Come into my arms!" Liu Huan opened his arms and said with a faint smile.

Ge Ziming ran to Liu Huan with some excitement, gave him a big hug, and then hugged Yang Kunhuajian one by one, as for Jianya, because she was a woman, she just shook hands.

With Ge Ziming's departure, the host came to the stage and invited the next player to play.

Immediately after the third, fourth, and ninth, the middle three were eliminated.

A dilemma, an uncle in his thirties, a young man in his twenties, and a little girl in his twenties.

"010 follow me to the backstage to prepare!" When Chen Yu saw the eighth one, his heart shook violently for some reason, and he was very nervous.

With the call of the staff, Chen Yu got up and followed the staff.

He didn't bring a guitar because the song he prepared was not a simple song with a hold, and the guitar didn't have many plus points.

"Wait here!"

"Yes, thank you!"

Chen Yu could hear the voice inside very clearly here.

"Here's the next singer!" The host's magnetic voice remembered, and at this time, the staff handed the microphone to Chen Yu.

"Thank you!" Chen Yu turned the microphone and nodded in thanks.

Then he strode towards the stage.

As the lights went out, the whole venue fell silent, and as Chen Yu entered the stage, the lights suddenly turned on.

Chen Yu appeared in the spotlight.

Thoughtfully two-thirds of the way to the stage, adjust the position, and then signal to the band next to you that it's okay.

At the same time, a huge ring LED display appeared behind Chen Yu, and the name of the song appeared.
