Fang Xing came down from the stage and walked through the passage backstage.

When I opened the door of the rest area and walked into the hall of the rest area, the singers present warmly greeted me and shook hands and said hello.

"The singing is so good, I'm convinced." Xie Yuwen was the first to greet and shake hands.

"I'll kneel for you directly." Shen Xiyin was also full of praise.

"I've won the prize, I've won the prize......" Fang Xing said a few modest words to them.

After all the singers competed, the program team began to arrange the current 500 judges to vote.

After the voting is over, the votes will be counted.

After waiting for half an hour, the program team notified all the singers to gather in Hall 2.

Zheng Tao took the hand card with the final result written on it and came to everyone:

"Before tonight's results are announced, there is a rule that needs to be told to everyone in advance.

"That's the rule of advancing to the finals 'Battle of the Singers'.

"If you watch the singers of past seasons, you should know this rule, but I'll explain it again.

"The regular competition of the show, starting from the 8th episode, will not be eliminated, but each episode will determine a singer with the highest total votes in the whole season and advance to the finals 'Battle of the King of Singers'.

In other words, after the 8th, 9th, and 10th rounds of competition, the singer with the highest total votes will be determined and will go straight to the finals.

"In other words, by the 10th issue, there will be 3 singers who will advance to the 'Battle of the King of Singers'.

"The 11th issue is the breakout competition, and all singers who have temporarily left the stage can return to participate in the breakout competition.

"In the end, 5 singers were decided and broke through to the finals of the 'Battle of the King of Singers'.

"The 12th issue is the finals 'Battle of the King of Singers', and it will be a live broadcast at that time, and the 8 singers who will finally advance will compete for the final glory of the singer."

The promotion rules for this season's "Battle of the King of Singers" are similar to those of previous seasons, but they have been improved in some details.

Therefore, if you look at the singers of past seasons, you probably know what the rules are.

Xie Yuwen continued: "The rules are almost the same, anyway, you can compare whatever you say, and it's over when you sing." Let's announce the rankings as soon as possible. ”

Zheng Tao showed that familiar smile, and the singers present knew that he was about to start again.

"Do you want to hear the first place first? Or listen to the last one first? ”

Everyone collectively rolled their eyes, only Liu Hongsheng and other singers with relatively high coffee positions had to maintain their image and continue to sit upright.

Xie Yuwen waved his hand and said, "You don't have to announce the first place, I already know who it is." It's like I know now, who's in second place. ”

Tonight's second place is very suspenseful.

The ancient first-line female singer Xu Xinyun, the king of the music world Liu Hongsheng, plus a quasi-first-line female singer Li Caiwei who produced a competition song by Fang Xing.

All three are likely to be ranked second, depending on which song the audience prefers.

Zheng Tao continued to smile and said, "Since everyone wants to know who the first place is......

"We don't want to!" Xie Yuwen, Shen Xiyin and several other singers who were more skinny interrupted the director's words loudly.

Zheng Tao held back a smile and continued: "Okay, since everyone doesn't want to know so much, then let's announce the first place first."

"The No. 1 singer tonight has received a total of 356 votes, which is the highest number of votes received by the entire season of the show so far.

"This song is very beautiful and graceful, so the number one one tonight is ...... Fang Xing sang "Blue and White Porcelain", congratulations! ”

Xie Yuwen sat on the sofa with a calm face, spread his hands and said, "There are no surprises." ”

"There really are no surprises." Shen Xiyin answered.

Three seconds passed.

Xie Yuwen suddenly stood up and congratulated Fang Xing: "Congratulations, I won the first place again." ”

The rest of the singers also stood up to congratulate.

"Thank you, thank you......" Fang Xing responded one by one.

Xie Yuwen continued: "Isn't it all numb to take the first, and there is no fluctuation in your mood?" ”

"It's okay, it's okay." Fang Xing responded with a smile.

Xie Yuwen then asked, "Can you give us a chance?" At least let us feel that we still have a little hope of hitting the first place this season. ”

Fang Xing thought for a moment and said: "There is a chance, theoretically, in the last few episodes of the show, I am not qualified to participate in the competition." ”

Xie Yuwen and Shen Xiyin complained in unison: "No! You've all advanced to the 'Battle of the Singers' ahead of schedule! ”

According to the promotion rules of the "Battle of the Singers".

In the 8th, 9th, and 10th episodes, the singer with the highest total number of votes in the season will be determined and advance to the finals "Battle of the King of Singers" in advance.

So far, Fang Xing has won the first place 6 times, even if the 7th and 8th episodes are the penultimate first, there is a high probability that he will be the singer with the highest number of votes.

Therefore, if you advance to the "Battle of the King of Singers" in advance, other singers do have a chance.

Zheng Tao pressed his palm, let everyone be quiet, and then continued to announce the rankings:

"The next ones to be announced are the second, third and fourth places, and the difference in the number of votes for these three places is not big.

Moreover, these three singers have the same characteristics, and their names are all ...... Three words. ”

Shen Xiyin fell directly into the sofa and said speechlessly: "Except for Fang Xing, everyone else's names here are all three words!" ”

"Oh, is it? It seems to be true. Zheng Tao had an expression that he had only discovered now.

Everyone couldn't help but roll their eyes.

Zheng Tao was not affected by everyone's slander at all, and continued: "Among these three singers, two are female singers and one is a male singer. ”

Xie Yuwen raised his hand and said, "Okay, needless to say, I know who this male singer is, it must be Liu Tianwang." ”

In fact, Xie Yuwen still wants to compete for the top four rankings.

If Zheng Tao just said that there are two male singers, then he still has a little hope.

But Zheng Tao said that it was two female singers and one male singer, so he knew it in his heart.

Shen Xiyin also sighed: "I also know who the two female singers are, anyway, it's not me, there are three female singers on the scene." ”

Zheng Tao looked at Shen Xiyin with a smile and encouraged: "In the next competition, continue to work hard." The two female singers are indeed Xu Xinjun and Li Caiwei, congratulations to the two.

Xie Yuwen guessed very accurately, the male singers in the second, third, and fourth places are indeed Liu Hongsheng and Liu Tianwang. Congratulations. ”

Liu Hongsheng then asked: "What about the specific ranking?" ”

Zheng Tao said: "The next thing is the specific ranking of the work card, first of all, the second place, congratulations...... Liu Tianwang won the second place tonight. ”

Liu Hongsheng raised his eyebrows, and felt a little proud in his heart.

Although he was suppressed by Fang Xing for six episodes, he won at least another song produced by Fang Xing.

Zheng Tao then announced the rankings.

Xu Xinyu is third, and Li Caiwei is fourth.

Li Caiwei was not too surprised to hear this ranking.

And, she's happy with the ranking.

Fourth place means that as long as the next competition is not too bad, there is no danger of elimination.

When Fang Xing heard this ranking, he was not too surprised.

In fact.

Zhang Liangying won the seventh place in that issue when she sang "Life Like a Summer Flower" on "I Am a Singer", that is, the penultimate one.

Although Fang Xing has always felt that in that episode of the show, Zhang Liangying's "Life Like a Summer Flower" was the penultimate one, which was a big injustice for this show, but the ticket type is like this.

Now Li Caiwei is on the stage of "Singing" for the first time, and her popularity is not as high as Liu Hongsheng and Xu Xinyun.

Coupled with the preference of the 500 judges at the scene, they may not eat the song very much, which ultimately led to this result.

However, in fact, in "Singing", winning the fourth place is already a good result.

After all, the singers in this show are all powerful singers.

After the rankings are announced.

Zheng Tao continued: "Next, it is to announce the theme of the next competition.

The competition themes of the show are all selected from the Weibo voting initiated by the official Weibo of "Singing", and the top three competition themes voted by the audience have the opportunity to be selected.

"So the theme of the next competition is ...... 'Family Affection is Priceless'."

Hearing this theme, the expressions of the singers present suddenly became serious.

"This time I'm going to sing 'family affection'." Xie Yuwen frowned and thought for a moment.

In the music world, there are many songs that express family affection, and the problem of choosing songs is not big, but it is not easy to sing well.

To sing family affection, you must sing to the hearts of the audience, as long as you can't impress the audience, it will be difficult to get a ticket.

When Liu Hongsheng heard this theme, he had a better understanding in his heart.

He sang too many film and television hits twenty years ago, including TV series about family love.

"Okay, the theme of the next competition has been released, and tonight's recording is over, thank you. Let's go back and prepare the songs, and we'll see you next week. After Zheng Tao finished speaking, he bowed and let everyone leave.

……

The singers each returned to the hotel in a nanny car.

In the nanny car.

Liu Hongsheng showed a rare smile: "This time I finally won a song by Fang Xing, at least it shows that Fang Xing is not invincible, and we have every chance to win." But there are not many opportunities. ”

His agent Hu Changqing said: "It's a pity that Fang Xing didn't press down and take the first place once." The quality of "Wutong Night Rain" this time was originally very high. ”

Liu Hongsheng waved his hand and said: "After listening to "Blue and White Porcelain", I knew that I had no chance tonight.

"However, we at least won "Life Like a Summer Flower", which shows that Fang Xing is not so difficult to deal with in every song.

"Continue to contact the big names in the circle, I want a better team, the next issue is about family affection, we have an advantage in this theme, we must take the first place."

Hu Changqing said with a smile: "Actually, there is no need to be so anxious, according to the current momentum, after the end of the eighth phase of Fang Xing, he will definitely advance to the finals in advance, then the ninth phase is completely our world." ”

Liu Hongsheng shook his head and said in a serious tone: "No! I have to take the first place once when Fang Xing is still there, otherwise fans will say that I have never won against Fang Xing in the future.

"In the next competition, I am very sure of the theme, talk to Puxiang, if they are not satisfied with the effect of production, they will change to other teams to do it."

Hu Changqing nodded and agreed: "Okay, leave this matter to me." ”

……

The other side.

Fang Xing and Li Caiwei returned to the hotel.

Li Caiwei was in a very good mood and said, "Congratulations, I won the first place again." ”

"It's a pity you only took the fourth."

"I'm already very satisfied with the fourth place, and the fill-in singer has no advantage."

Li Caiwei is really satisfied with the fourth place, as long as she is not eliminated and sings a few more episodes, it will be the best result for her.

"Fourth, there's room for improvement. It's good to rush forward in the next issue. Fang Xing said.

"The theme of the next issue is family affection, this theme is not easy to sing, the song selection is one thing, and it is even more difficult to sing into the hearts of the audience." Li Caiwei reminded.

"I'll think about choosing a song when I go back." Fang Xing said.

"Mine included?" Li Caiwei asked with a charming smile.

"Don't worry, in the next issue, I'll give you a more ruthless song." Fang Xing has already thought about it, and he will also have a king bomb for Li Caiwei in the next issue.

Li Caiwei thought for a while and said: "The song of family affection, in terms of emotion, I should be able to express it, and there is no need to limit what identity is family affection." ”

She is already a person with a daughter, and after becoming a mother, her feelings for family affection are deeper than those who have never experienced it.

"Well, when the time comes, I'll go back to the company and discuss the song selection." Fang Xing said and turned his head to look out the window, his thoughts drifting into the distance.

……

After recording the fifth episode of "Singing", Fang Xing took the next morning's flight back to the East China Sea.

After resting for half a day, I played the piano casually in the piano room, recalling the thoughts of my parents and relatives in another world hidden deep in my heart.

Spend a leisurely day, accompanied by the sunset, and play the piano all afternoon.

The next morning, I suddenly received a voice message from my father: You haven't been home for a long time, can you go home?

Hearing his father's voice in this life, Fang Xing suddenly felt a twitch in his heart.

In the past six months, I haven't been home once.

The reason why I didn't go back was because I was a little scared in my heart.

Even more frightening is that parents suddenly call.

Whether it's in the previous life, or in this life.

Fang Xing actually had the same fear, afraid that his parents would suddenly call at a time that was not a normal phone call.

Because, that probably means, something is going on at home.

has lived two lives, Fang Xing knows too well the simple parents on this land.

They don't have the ability to do anything, and they don't know what their children want, but they will have their own way of thinking about their children.

When the children are working hard outside, they will find a way to solve anything by themselves, and they will not trouble the children unless they have to.

Except for a phone call every week and every month, on a fixed night, the rest of the time, try not to disturb the children.

Also for this reason.

Every time Fang Xing suddenly received a call from his parents, he was a little worried.

Fang Xing heard his father's voice and was a little worried, but it was WeChat, at least it meant that the matter was not so urgent.

However, Fang Xing still hurried back to a WeChat: I'll take the high-speed train back now, and if I need money, I'll turn it over first.

After a while, my father's voice came again.

But this time it wasn't the father's voice, but the mother's: son, don't be nervous, the family is fine, and there is no shortage of money, but you haven't been home for a long time, ask when you are free to come back. Your dad can't speak, he didn't make things clear, don't worry, come back when you're free.

Fang Xing is quite free now, he just finished recording the fifth episode of "Singing" and has a week's rest.

Now that the parents took the initiative to ask, it's time to go back and face it.

Moreover, Fang Xing always felt that there must be something at home, but his parents were not in a hurry, indicating that it was not a big deal.

……

At noon, I took the high-speed train, then transferred to a bus, and returned to my hometown Baitang Town.

Follow the memories in your mind and return to an old neighborhood.

Fang Xing's memories of this life began in this community.

According to his parents, when he was three years old, he moved to this neighborhood.

Twenty years have passed.

Because it is an old neighborhood, the building is not high, only six floors, but there is no elevator.

Fang Xing remembered that his family lived on the fifth floor, and when he was a child, he had to run to the fifth floor several times every day to school.

Standing in front of the community, looking up at the old buildings, I had mixed feelings in my heart.

Because the community is very old, the property management is relatively messy.

The access control is basically gone, and there is only one old man on duty in the guard room, who is usually responsible for opening the door.

Fang Xing came back this time, and he didn't bring much with him, so he carried a shoulder bag.

When I arrived at the gate of the community, I was suddenly a little scared in my heart, and I didn't know what expression to use to face my parents in this life.

stood at the entrance of the community for a long time, looking at the fifth floor of a certain building in a daze.

The window with the blue curtains is the room where I have lived for twenty years.

This feeling of being both familiar and strange is very complicated.

I don't know how long I have been standing, if it is replaced by a community with strict property management, I may have to suspect that Fang Xing is here to step on it.

After all, I have lived here for twenty years.

Although he was wearing a mask and a hat, some neighbors still felt like it and ran to tell Fang's father.

Fang's father originally knew that his son was coming back today, and he was busy at home with the child's mother.

I heard from a neighbor that there was a man outside who looked like his son.

Fang's father hurriedly ran down from the upstairs, and when he arrived at the gate of the community, he was stunned for a moment, and then shouted: "Fang wake up!" ”

Fang Xing came back to his senses from his stunned state and turned his head to look at Dad Fang, his gaze stiffened.

Dad Fang hurriedly walked up, pulled Fang Xing away, and said, "Why are you standing here?" When I got home, I was still standing stupidly, and I hurried upstairs. Your mom has cooked you a lot of your favorite dishes, let's go. ”

Fang Xing was stunned and was dragged upstairs by Fang's father, entered the house, and stood a little cramped in this "home".

As soon as Fang's mother saw her son coming back, she hurriedly brought the stewed soup and prepared dishes from the kitchen to the table: "Hurry up, drink a bowl of soup first, and see how thin the child is." ”

Fang Xing looked at his busy parents, and his nose suddenly became a little sour.

I don't know when, the feelings for the parents of the two lives have coincided unconsciously.

Fang Xing secretly decided in his heart: I will be filial to you well, if there is a soul living in the body of another world, I also hope that he can be filial to his parents in that world.

After sitting down, Fang's mother kept picking up vegetables, and said while picking up vegetables: "Now our family is famous in the community, and everyone says that our family has a big star." Even the aunts in our dance team are not fashionable enough and refuse to dance with the songs sung by their sons. ”

While eating, the second episode of "Singing" was still playing on TV.

I don't know how many times they watched it, pressed the remote control, and wanted to go to another show, but it was "Rising Star" that popped up.
