Chapter 4: The Contest Ends
After the third episode was broadcast, the quarrel between Zhong Dingding and Chi An was staged as scheduled. Due to Mrs. Zhong's advice and the apology of the program team, the editing team also added a few more shots to Chi An, either to comfort his companions, or to carefully check the performance video after rehearsal.
Chi An's reputation has picked up as expected.
The team competition is finally over, and Chi An has finally ushered in her spring.
In the first game of the individual competition, Chi An was dressed in a white T-shirt and linen pants as wide as a robe, and a freewheeling and cynical original song "Treading the Clouds" was really eye-catching.
Chi An's ranking immediately rose to the top 10.
Good music is a killer weapon at any time.
Chi An has undoubtedly become a highlight of this issue.
The director met Teacher Zhu of the arrangement group, and was so happy that he put his arms on his shoulder, "You told me that there was a good song before, but I haven't taken it seriously!" β
Teacher Zhu looked strange, "The song I said hasn't been finished yet, and it will be used for the next performance." β
""Treading the Clouds" is already good, what is better?"
Teacher Zhu snorted and said, "It's much better, I think it's going to be red." β
The director watched the excitement, and I wish the teacher to watch the doorway. It turns out that what Teacher Zhu said was right.
Before that, the director's wish for "Flower Wars" was just to have a slightly more beautiful statistic.
No one could have imagined that Chi An, who had almost no other characteristics except for writing originals, would explode without warning in the second solo performance.
The kind that is redder than red, exploded.
At the recording scene of the second game of the individual competition, Zhong Dingding holding Chi An's name tag appeared in the audience.
She discovered the malice towards Chi An on the Internet, and subconsciously complained about Chi An, and wrote down a small essay about the cause and effect, almost saying that Chi An was her long-lost sister.
In order to prove that the feud between the two was a rumor, without Chi An's invitation, Zhong Dingding spontaneously brought a light sign to cheer for Chi An.
The stage darkened, and Chi An slowly rose from the stage.
She wore a sack-like high school uniform with the high school badge pinned to her chest. There are no reliable relatives at home, and this is what she sent from home to her high school classmates.
She thought that Sister Lan of the service group would not agree, but I wish the teacher to come over and give a talk, Sister Lan immediately waved her hand and said, "What is engaged in creation is to have ideas, and the sword is biased!" β
The lights of the stadium dimmed and gradually fell into darkness, and the audience was in a commotion, she cleared her throat, and the audience fell silent.
In a piece of black, a sentence reads:
"I'm in the darkest
See the lightβ"
A lamp lit up overhead, like a faint moon, making people barely see Chi An's figure. Light and shadow swept the outline across her face, and she began to sing:
"I writhed in the mud, looked down and finally picked up the money
The others were laughing, but they didn't know that my house was half empty
I happily rushed home, but when I opened the door, my partner was empty
There was only one mirror left on the wall, and inside it was a ghostly face
β¦β¦
A dead body floated in the lake under the moon
The face is full of innocence, and he sleeps deeply
The Monument of Iniquity bears my name on it
It was I who pushed her down and drowned her
β¦β¦
That's who I was back then
Spotless, unworldly me
I killed me with my own hands
How do I resurrect you?
Come back, come back
Don't be afraid, I'm strong enough
β¦β¦
Go round and round
I finally saw me in the light."
The scene of the stage and the audience was constantly switching between the stage and the audience on the broadcast screen, and most of the people in the audience had red circles and tears, and many were wiping away their tears with tissues.
The last end note was closed, and the audience couldn't come back to their senses for a long time, until Chi An took a curtain call, and then they woke up like a dream.
Everyone seemed to have experienced a dream in these three minutes, in which they went back to the past and saw themselves who were long gone.
The melody is extremely melodious, sung into people's hearts, catchy but not vulgar; The lyrics are precisely the hidden wound in the center, evoking the regret of the past and the "no longer numbness" for the future in the listener's heart.
The six star mentors also stood up and applauded Chi An.
Li Wanqing and Lin Jia were holding tissues, their eyes were red, and they still had a nasal voice when commenting, Wei Heguang took two deep breaths before calming down his moved mood, he picked up the microphone and sniffed before he spoke: "Thank you for letting me see with my own eyes what creation is." β
After singing the song "See Me", everyone knows that Chi An will be recorded in the history of the Chinese music scene, and a new star has risen, and no one can stop it.
Teacher Zhu looked at Chi An, who was not her in the audience who was singing and crying in the monitor, and walked off the stage and said softly, "It's over." β
Rao is David has heard this song "See Me" countless times in front of and behind the scenes, and he is still wiping his tears at the moment, and he asked, "Teacher, what do you mean by this." β
Teacher Zhu was emotional after listening to the song, and explained: "As soon as this song came out, she became a singer when everyone else was still fooling around at the level of "idol". There's nothing to compare to. β
When David heard such a high evaluation, he jumped three feet high and ran backstage, he was going to tell Chi An this!
"Chi An? Quiet? Did you see Chi An? "It's strange that I can't find her backstage, no one can see where she goes.
Lu Qiluan wanted to find a hidden utility room to smoke a cigarette, but he didn't push open the door and heard that there seemed to be someone inside.
She leaned against the crack in the door to see a girl in a high school uniform sitting in a corner of the utility room, wrapping her arms around herself, and crying bitterly as if she had suppressed it for a long time.
Lu Qiluan turned around and left, staying not far away.
David ran over while shouting Chi An's name, Lu Qiluan recognized him as Chi An's manager, and grabbed him and shushed: "She's inside, vent, let's not know." β
David looked at Lu Qiluan's deep and bright eyebrows, blushed, worried about Chi An, and asked in a low voice, "Is she okay?" β
Lu Qiluan smiled, David's heart beat even harder, and he heard her say, "It's good to cry, you wait for her here, I'll go first." β
David looked at Lu Qiluan's beautiful back and sighed, why didn't Chi An become good friends with Lu Qiluan?
β¦β¦
Through a door, Chi An's long-suppressed feelings finally found an outlet for catharsis.
She sang it, she finally sang it.
From the first note of my father being given a critical illness notice, to my mother packing up and abandoning them, to my father's death after suffering all kinds of pain;
From being excluded and bullied by trainees of the same company when he first arrived in South Korea, he finally learned to fight back fiercely;
From his ambitious debut to the bankruptcy of his company, he returned to China to support his humble dreams by doing odd jobs.
This song, which had been written on and off for three years, was finally completed the moment she saw him with her own eyes.
Every time she sings, she seems to re-experience those bumpy pasts. Dressed in muddy and riddled coats, she looked back at her once carefree, innocent and happy self.
Although she was not happy at that time, she was also simple and happy.
And now, she has nothing.
β¦β¦
At the end of the recording, Wei Heguang got in the car and turned his head to the agent and said, "Sister Mei, isn't there a flower report performance after the game?" Can I get to work with Chi An? I already have an idea for adaptation. β
However, with ready-made hits in front of him, who of the six judges doesn't want to pick the most brilliant collaboration, and where is his turn to be the youngest Wei Heguang?
The competition ended with Chi An winning the championship, Lu Qiluan winning the runner-up, and Wen Qinyin winning the third place.
In the report performance, Chi An was assigned to the veteran singer Roger, and the two partnered to adapt and interpret "See Me".
And Wei Heguang helped the third runner-up Wen Qinyin, the two sang and danced vigorously, handsome men and beautiful women, and they were very good-looking.
Chi An watched the rehearsal of the two quietly in the audience, his eyes full of envy.
She knows in her heart that she is a civil and military official, and her talent in singing and dancing is limited, and if she wants to go far enough, she can't go down this road.
Being able to look at him on the stage at such close range, she was so satisfied that she couldn't control her expression. Step by step, she cheered herself up, and he would see me one day.
David messaged, "I'm back in school, I'm going to miss you. β
Chi An replied: "It's all in Beijing, what do you miss." β
David: "Do you want to sign a company next?" β
The terms of participation wrote that he would sign with the company unconditionally after the game, which gave Chi An a headache.
"yes, I'm worried."
