Chapter 108: Stare at Me, Don't Just Look at Smallpox (6500 words)
The day of the start of the third round.
Zhao Kewei failed to contact Qiu Yuan, whether it was a message on his mobile phone, or asking Zhao Hanwei to go to the dormitory to find Qiu Yuan, there was no result.
In desperation, Zhao Kewei could only come to the shooting site alone with some uneasiness.
When she came to the lounge at the shooting site, Zhao Kewei sat alone in the lounge for a while, and finally felt someone walking in behind her.
"I'll do the makeup by myself today, you don't have to..."
Zhao Kewei thought that the makeup team had found her and was ready to help her take care of her makeup before she went on stage.
But when she looked through the mirror at the people who walked into the lounge behind her, she found that it was not the teachers of the makeup team yesterday but Lin Wanqiu.
"You don't need to go to such trouble to convince me again, I'll go on stage myself to say goodbye to the audience when the game starts."
Zhao Kewei didn't look back, and began to put on light makeup for himself.
This is the result of thinking about it for a long time, taking the stage to apologize to the audience and then retiring for a while.
Until her contract with Cloud Media expired.
"It's late." Lin Wanqiu said suddenly.
"Late? It's not like the game hasn't started yet......"
When Zhao Kewei said this, the hairpin she was holding in her hand fell to the ground in response, and her long black hair fell out in an instant.
From the time Qiu Yuan was chosen to participate in this competition, all the uneasiness gathered in Zhao Kewei's heart, and until now, all of them have become the clear and audible sound of locking the door.
When Zhao Kewei came to his senses, he turned around and found that Lin Wanqiu had locked the door of the lounge.
"What are you doing?"
Zhao Kewei stood up from the dressing table and rushed to Lin Wanqiu.
Lin Wanqiu didn't stop her, and sat silently on the sofa and watched Zhao Kewei twist the doorknob of the lounge.
"I specially asked someone to change the lock yesterday, and I can't open it from the inside without a key." Lin Wanqiu saw that Zhao Ke only had a tendency to slam the door, so she spoke out and said to her, "Don't worry, someone will replace you in the third round of performance."
"Is it Qiuyuan?"
Zhao Kewei also gradually calmed down, turned around to look at Lin Wanqiu, and said the live broadcast of the best singer-songwriter in the lounge.
"You... Let Qiuyuan go up instead of me to apologize to Zhang Yu? Zhao Kewei guessed this possibility.
This possibility made her still suppress her anger when she was talking to Lin Wanqiu, but she didn't have the anxiety when she wanted to slam the door just now.
Because Qiu Yuan is just a passer-by in this dispute, even if he replaces Zhao Kewei on stage to apologize, it will not have any impact.
Whether it is Zhao Kewei's fans or Zhang Yu's fans, they will not remember and care about Qiuyuan's temporary worker.
"If only he would apologize for you."
Lin Wanqiu's words made the anxiety that had just left return to Zhao Kewei's heart again.
What Lin Wanqiu was saying and what Qiu Yuan wanted to do, Zhao Kewei could vaguely guess this, but she didn't want to believe it.
The reason is also very simple, no matter how Zhao Kewei thinks about it, her relationship with Qiu Yuan is not good enough, and Qiu Yuan will pay such a big price to help her.
This sense of anxiety accompanied her until the moment it was her turn to play.
Zhao Kewei stood in the lounge, staring at the live broadcast of the best singer-songwriter on TV without blinking.
"Let's welcome the contestant with the highest number of votes from the audience so far, the all-round queen Zhao Kewei, who has returned to the stage after three years!"
Under the host's enthusiastic introduction, the stage lit up with brilliant light.
The design of the third scene was originally scheduled to show Zhao Kewei standing on the take-off and landing platform, slowly appearing from the center of the stage with the sound of lights and music.
Her fans and a group of passers-by and the audience had been expecting her to appear for too long, but when the central stage rose and Qiu Yuan's figure appeared in a puff of dry ice smoke, a lot of question marks popped up on the screen in an instant.
'Temporary? ''Is it the wrong person?'' But what about Sister Wei? In Zhao Kewei's eyes, such doubts even overshadowed the vicious comments of Zhang Yu's fans.
In this case, Zhao Kewei can also guess that if Qiu Yuan plays, both her fans and Zhang Yu's fans will be disappointed.
But the key is in the back... Please, just act like you're a temporary worker and come down! Don't do anything stupid!
Zhao Kewei looked at Qiu Yuan's appearance in a suit, and his heart was tightened.
is mainly a distressing feeling, Qiu Yuan's outfit is a little funny, and there is a bit of a strong sense of wearing adult clothes.
And Qiu Yuan's expressionless appearance standing on the ground, as well as the disappointment from the audience, are the reasons why Zhao Kewei is distressed.
The four judges were also puzzled when they saw Qiu Yuan standing quietly on the stage, and one of the judges also asked the guide if he was on the wrong person, but only after getting the director's confirmation did he start to interact with Qiu Yuan.
"May I ask this player, what is your relationship with Zhao Kewei, who was originally scheduled to go on stage?" Yuan Chengjing made a more friendly start.
"I'm Zhao Kewei's lyricist and composer, but the show hasn't given me any shots until now, so I can't help but want to come up and sing it."
Qiu Yuan still has a hand in enlivening the atmosphere on the stage and making the audience happy, Qiu Yuan can hear that some of the audience at the scene are laughing at themselves.
"It turned out to be the hero behind the two songs of Kewei contestants."
Yuan Chengjing nodded approvingly, and Zhang Yu next to him also sat on the chair relaxed.
There has been a precedent for the first two episodes of Best Singer-Songwriter when singers and lyricists swapped to perform on stage.
Zhang Yu may think that at the cusp of this kind of public opinion, Zhao Kewei will temporarily disappear for one or two periods, and the decision to take out Qiu Yuan, the man who is behind the pot, is very clever.
But why Qiuyuan? Zhang Yu always felt that something was not good, when he participated in the school celebration party of Jiang University, his performance on the stage was crushed by Qiu Yuan, a college student, and left him with a deep psychological shadow.
So the moment he saw Qiu Yuan on stage, he recognized Qiu Yuan's true identity.
Zhang Yu's worries were actually right, what he didn't expect was that Qiu Yuan not only came up to carry the black pot this time, but also brought a lot of high explosives.
"Actually, I have one more thing I want to say to Mr. Zhang Yu when I come to the stage this time."
Qiu Yuan smiled and looked at Zhang Yu, who was a little relaxed.
"What's the matter?"
Zhang Yu was a little cautious when he asked, and the best result he thought of was that Qiu Yuan had come to apologize for Zhao Kewei.
But when Qiu Yuan put the microphone against his lips, the words composed of several notes squeezed out of his throat directly made Zhang Yu sit on the judges' bench as if he had been immobilized.
"Teacher Zhang Yu, why are you qualified to sit in that position and serve as a judge for this show?"
How dare Qiu Yuan ask that!
Zhang Yu was stunned, he knew that Qiu Yuan had a faint hostility towards him, but he couldn't imagine that Qiu Yuan would dare to question his qualifications on the spot on the spot on a live broadcast of a program watched by tens of millions of people?
Who gave Qiu Yuan the guts? Didn't this college student think about what would happen to him if he slandered him like this?!
"Contestant Qiuyuan, I don't understand what you're talking about." Zhang Yu shouldn't have responded to Qiu Yuan's question, but the anger in his heart still made him confront Qiu Yuan, "With my achievements in the Chinese music scene, it's more than enough to sit on the judges' bench, right?" β
"This has nothing to do with achievements, Mr. Zhang Yu, the place you should stay in now is prison... With cloud media to protect you, have you forgotten the bad things you have done before? β
Zhao Kewei looked at Qiu Yuan in the lounge in a daze, listing all kinds of evil deeds that Zhang Yu had done in the entertainment industry before.
If Zhao Kewei was naΓ―ve and simpler, he would have been full of Qiu Yuan standing on the stage standing up for her now.
Because Qiu Yuan said on the stage what Zhao Kewei wanted to say, but didn't dare to say it at all, he was desperate to stand on the stage and confront Zhang Yu bravely for her.
For some little girls, such a boy is especially easy to give people a sense of security.
But Zhao Kewei is not an innocent and simple little girl, she clearly understands... Qiu Yuan is now sacrificing himself for her!
Every sentence Qiu Yuan said about Zhang Yu's black history was poked at Zhang Yu's body like a spear, but it would also affect Qiu Yuan himself!
Now Zhao Kewei suddenly understood... He is still doing the same thing as Lin Wanxiang and Bai Xiaoyu.
That is to enjoy Qiuyuan's good with peace of mind, and then inadvertently hurt him with the most cruel means.
But the difference is... Zhao Kewei would not ask Qiu Yuan suspiciously after making a mistake, "Why did you leave me?" β
"Kewei!"
Lin Wanqiu suddenly stood up at this moment, because Zhao Kewei suddenly picked up the stool in the lounge and smashed it mercilessly towards the door of the lounge.
Zhao Kewei's strength was very great, and the moment the stool slammed into the door, there was a deafening sound.
The barstool was instantly deformed by such a sudden smash, and the lock of the lounge door was also smashed and deformed a little, but it still couldn't be opened.
Zhao Kewei thought about it, picked up the chair again, and wanted to smash it towards the locked door.
"Qiu Yuan's words have already been spoken! You then make up already... It's useless. β
Lin Wanqiu's voice made Zhao Kewei's hand holding the barstool stop in place.
Zhao Kewei turned his head sideways and continued to look at the barrage on the screen, and there were already a bunch of people brushing on the barrage, 'Who is this person?' ''Zhang Yuda, who slanders us like this, no one cares about him?'' 's comments.
"On a good note, Qiu Yuan doesn't know anyone, and no one cares about him, so not many people will remember Qiu Yuan's words, Zhang Yu's fans will give way at most, he is just a passerby who wants to be popular."
Lin Wanqiu could only appease Zhao Kewei in this way, she was really afraid that Zhao Kewei would directly tear down the door with her bare hands, and then run to the stage to drag Qiu Yuan down.
In this way, Qiu Yuan is really 'fire'.
That's right, Qiu Yuan is a little transparent.
Zhao Kewei thought that she had a bit of a life-saving straw here, her fans were able to match Zhang Yu because the number of her fans was equal to Zhang Yu's fans.
So the more the two families scolded, the happier they became, what about Qiuyuan?
Qiu Yuan may not even have an official Weibo account, Zhang Yu's fans are now spraying Qiu Yuan, and it is estimated that they will soon forget about Qiu Yuan's little transparent.
Even if Qiu Yuan's identity in reality is really doxxed, let Qiu Yuan avoid the limelight and travel everywhere for a while, and it will be fine if the heat drops.
But the premise of all this is that Qiu Yuan is not popular, and when he is an excellent little transparent, the audience can't remember him at all.
So I beg you, don't sing any songs that are better than "Fulfillment" on a whim!
Zhao Kewei's inner prayer seemed to have been answered, and judge Yuan Chengjing was the first judge who couldn't get used to seeing Qiu Yuan scolding Zhang Yu on the stage.
"Contestant Qiuyuan, did you come to the stage just to fight with Teacher Zhang Yu?" Yuan Chengjing asked.
"Right, in a sense?"
Qiu Yuan's words blocked Yuan Chengjing's chest, and he almost choked to death without taking a breath.
The most annoying thing is that there are still audience members behind the stage who laugh heartlessly, but it didn't take long for those audience members to realize that the atmosphere around them was a little dignified and closed their mouths.
"Qiu Yuan, this is the stage for the best singer-songwriter, if you don't come up to perform, please get off the stage and give up the stage to other players."
Yuan Chengjing still remained calm, but he was already a little angry at what Qiu Yuan said.
He was still wondering why the director didn't find someone to drive Qiu Yuan, the troublemaker, down? Now it's live!
How hard is the backstage of this guy Qiu Yuan? Slandering the judges on the spot like this, can they still stand on the stage safely?
"Teacher Yuan Chengjing, I do have a song to sing when I come up, but let me guess..."Qiu Yuan's eyes looked at the audience on the stage, "What people like me say, you shouldn't believe it?" Even if you believe it, you shouldn't care, and you will forget it in the blink of an eye? But I want you to remember what I said, and the song I'm going to sing next. β
Qiu Yuan's somewhat self-indulgent words drew a burst of boos, and someone in the audience shouted "Who do you think you are?" Want to be famous, want to go crazy, right? β
This sentence was captured by the director impartially, and it was clearly recorded in the ears of Qiu Yuan and the four judges, as well as in front of every audience in front of the camera.
Qiu Yuan smiled and didn't respond, just silently said the name of the song.
"Please enjoy this song "Exaggeration."
Let all the audience remember you? Can Qiu Yuan really do it?
Zhao Kewei, who was watching the live broadcast in the lounge, looked at Qiu Yuan standing alone on the stage, and the feeling of distress and worry became heavier and heavier!
Because Qiu Yuan didn't have anything, no makeup team, no lighting effects, no tuner, no dance partner, and didn't even move on the stage, he just stood in place with his head down and waited quietly for the accompaniment to sound.
This is too shabby for the previous performances of the best singer-songwriters, and the dance partner does not have it, not even a simple spotlight.
In this state, Qiu Yuan's lone stage performance, as well as his singing skills, will be infinitely magnified.
"This is all Qiu Yuan's request, not that I deliberately embarrassed him." Lin Wanqiu felt Zhao Kewei's scolding eyes, and hurriedly said, "What he means is that he doesn't want dance partners, lighting special effects, even the tuner doesn't need it." β
"Don't even give the tuner and the lighting effects? You really should be Qiuyuan, he is ......" Zhao Kewei's words were not finished, and the exaggerated accompaniment sounded instantly.
The entire lounge was shrouded in a sound effect that Zhao Kewei rarely heard.
This is the sound of the Theremin, which is eerie and evil, as if it is suppressing something, and it instantly attracts Zhao Kewei's senses.
Qiu Yuan picked up the microphone and stood in place, singing the first lyrics of the song with an expressionless face.
"When someone asks me, I'll say... But no one came. I was looking forward to helplessness, having something to say and not getting loaded"
Qiu Yuan sang like he was talking to someone.
Ask you? What to ask?
Zhao Kewei Qiuyuan sang the first short lyrics and instantly understood.
This is another song that Qiu Yuan sings to himself, or Qiu Yuan sings to all those who are like him, who are ignored but want to be noticed... The song of the little people.
"My mood is like a bottle cover, waiting to be lifted, but my mouth is raising moss..."Qiu Yuan still lowered his head and looked at the ground when he sang this.
The few short lines of lyrics are very calm.
Because this is something that Qiu Yuan has long been accustomed to, because of his inferiority complex, when he gets along with others, he is ignored and ridiculed, and he has never been taken seriously by anyone, let alone respected by anyone.
But who is willing to do this? At least Qiu Yuan is not reconciled, but what can a person like him do if he wants to be noticed and valued?
The answer is...
"I'm going to have an accident." When Qiu Yuan sang here, he finally raised his eyes to look at the audience, and then raised his pitch and sang the next line, "It's like singing suddenly, and everywhere is like opening a four-sided stage..."
Nothing has changed, Zhao Kewei looked at Qiu Yuan who was standing on the stage at this time, and recalled how Qiu Yuan sang at the school celebration party before.
All the people who attended the school celebration party that day knew that Qiu Yuan's song was performed perfectly.
Everyone is praising Qiu Yuan's performance, but behind Qiu Yuan's perfect performance on the stage, who knows the injuries?
No one will pay attention, no one will care, not even Qiu Yuan himself, because he only wants those eyes that are on him.
It doesn't matter if you're covered in bruises! It's better than being ignored all the time!
Qiu Yuan, who was standing on the stage this time, was the same, Zhao Kewei knew that he would make everyone laugh, including himself!
Laugh, everyone.
"You and I are pompous! Exaggeration is just because I'm afraid, if it's like wood or stone, will it get noticed? β
When the first climax was sung by Qiu Yuan, whether it was the judges sitting on the judges' bench, the audience sitting in front of the screen on the stage, and Zhao Kewei standing in the lounge.
The sight was taken away by Qiu Yuan in an instant, the hearing was conquered by his hysterical singing, and the breathing was completely curbed by his almost suffocating emotional catharsis!
Qiu Yuan's singing of the first paragraph ended in a suffocating atmosphere, and returned to calm in the last sentence of 'to be a big entertainer'.
But the accompaniment continued, Qiu Yuan looked at Zhang Yu this time, and Zhang Yu felt that Qiu Yuan's gaze instinctively turned his head sideways and didn't want to look at Qiu Yuan.
But Qiu Yuan was still staring at him... continued to sing the lyrics that stood like a minions at the 18th school anniversary party that year.
"At that time, I tearfully swore to you, you must see me..."
They've seen you!
Other viewers may feel nothing, but Zhao Kewei couldn't hold back his tears when he heard the lyrics.
She didn't understand why Qiu Yuan chose to leave Lin Wanxiang or Bai Xiaoyu, obviously those two girls liked Qiu Yuan so much! Qiu Yuan definitely likes them too.
But Qiu Yuan still resolutely chose to leave, the reason is that in the final analysis, Qiu Yuan is still just an ordinary person who is not worthy of them.
But this matter is only known to Qiu Yuan himself, just like most of the audience present.
"In the world, there are too many ordinary and ordinary roads, which one do you live in? In love, at work, I have been neglected too much... Self-esteem has fallen. β
When the lyrics were sung, Zhang Yu raised his head and looked at Qiuyuan on the stage with some complexity, and the doubts of the audience gradually disappeared.
It was not only the audience at the scene who disappeared, but also the barrage on the barrage that was scolding Qiuyuan with a barrage, which gradually disappeared.
Resonance, as long as a normal person can find a sense of resonance from Qiu Yuan's singing, after all, who has not been humble?
What do lowly people crave most? Set store by.
attaches importance to being able to cure hunger, and those viewers who have been humble and neglected are gradually understanding why Qiu Yuan is like this... Like a clown, he laughed on stage.
Even if it's a bit morbid, it's much better to be ignored!
When Qiu Yuan's second pompous singing and the last hysterical scream echoed throughout the audience, most of the audience at the scene had been conquered by the song, gently clapping their hands to the beat of the accompaniment.
Listening to Qiu Yuan's almost roaring scream, not only did he not feel disobedient, this feeling of venting his emotions with all his might, but also a sense of refreshment and shock that made his scalp tingle.
When the second stanza was sung, there was applause on the stage.
Qiu Yuan succeeded in making all the audience laugh, but before laughing at you... How are you laughing at me?
Qiu Yuan put down the microphone, raised his head again, and scanned all the audience present with his eyes.
If you want to be valued, successful, and famous, it's not as simple as being a clown, if that's the case, the world would already be full of stars.
There aren't many lucky people in this world, so you should all understand...
Really want to succeed... Then you have to "make a stand out with ten times the painstaking work!" β
Qiu Yuan sang here, patted his chest with his hand, and sang loudly to all the audience as if questioning: "Is a normal person enough for me to be argumentative? β
If that's not enough, then taunt a few more words! The cold scene is what Qiu Yuan is most afraid of, so in order not to let the audience take their eyes off him, Qiu Yuan sang more and more hoarsely.
I sang it all the way to the point where the muscles burst out, all so that you could see me.
Then Qiu Yuan sang the sentence in a softer descending tone, as if asking, "I know the words, do they exist now?" β
This sentence is Qiu Yuan asking those viewers, do you see me now? Am I getting your attention?
If you see it all... Then don't look away.
Qiu Yuan stretched out his finger and pointed at all the audience present, and sang the lyrics that were almost pleading in a somewhat hoarse voice at the end.
Gaze at me... Stop looking at smallpox.
In addition to the shock, the audience present couldn't find any other adjectives, and they stared blankly at Qiu Yuan, who was standing on the stage with some hysteria.
Maybe I'm not the Sister Kewei you look forward to seeing, but I still made you laugh, didn't I? That's... Have a good laugh! Don't care about me.
Just hope you guys are after today... Don't forget...
"Someone's screaming for you."
Qiu Yuan sang the last sentence in a voice that was almost dry, with tears in his eyes that had accumulated for unknown time, waiting for the final accompaniment to end.
There was no applause.
The judges' lights were not lit, because the four judges had already listened to Qiu Yuan's singing, and the audience only had more than 50,000 votes.
The suffocating feeling in Qiu Yuan's singing made them unable to think about things like turning on the lights.
But Qiu Yuan didn't stay on the stage for a second, and turned around and left the stage without waiting for anyone to speak.
After Qiu Yuan left, the audience and the judges came to their senses, applause rang out instantly, the four lights were lit almost instantly, and the audience's votes instantly soared from 50,000 to 300,000, 400,000, and 600,000!
Everyone was applauding Qiu Yuan's shocking performance in different ways, but the performers themselves didn't think this performance was exciting, they only felt a little sad, stinging, and depressed.
But no one cares, they have already laughed, and if they want to continue laughing, they just need to take out Qiuyuan's performance and replay it.
They will remember Qiu Yuan standing on the stage and remember it forever.
