CCTV, "Avenue of Stars" program group studio, backstage.

There are only fifteen players who have entered the third phase, but with a group of busy staff, they do not seem to be cold in this wide backstage.

Chen Jie sat near the entrance of the passage, there was no one else around, and he listened to the slightly noisy chatter of the other players in his ears, as if he had not heard it.

Participating in the two issues of "Avenue of Stars", his results can be said to be very dazzling, but they are too different from what he originally expected.

There is a big monster Yang Jiang who is far ahead, and he is amazing in every issue, and he is given full marks by the mentors.

There is also a little monster Zhao Ku, who is extremely talented, Chen Jie is trying to catch up, but he is still a little worse.

Chen Jie was inevitably a little frustrated in his heart.

He's extremely unhappy to sit with other competitors right now, and he'd rather be alone and think about how he's going to play for the rest of the race.

Suddenly, the originally noisy environment suddenly quieted down.

Chen Jie subconsciously looked up and saw a handsome young man with a tall figure and a knife face walking into the backstage.

"He's coming."

Chen Jie sighed in his heart, and his face was instantly solemn, as if he was facing a great enemy.

This opponent, who was not valued by Chen Jie at first, now gives Chen Jie a feeling of "unbearable".

No, it's not a feeling, it's really unbearable.

......

......

Yang Jiang walked into the backstage and quickly scanned the surrounding environment.

There were a lot of people, but most of them were staff, and there were fewer players, and many seats were vacant.

Yang Jiang came earlier today than the previous two, he came to an empty seat, put the backpack he was carrying on the seat, and then sat down on another chair next to him.

He took out the teacup from his bag and took a sip.

Holding the teacup in his hand, Yang Jiang was thinking about the song he was going to sing today.

At this moment, there was a sound of footsteps, stopping beside him.

Yang Jiang raised his head and looked at Zhao Ku, who had just sat down next to him.

With so many empty positions in the background, Yang Jiang didn't believe that Zhao Ku would sit next to him for no reason.

Noticing that Yang Jiang looked over, Zhao Ku pursed his lips and smiled, looking a little shy, "Hello." ”

After saying that, he reached out and scratched the hair on the back of his head somewhat unnaturally.

If he hadn't sat close, Yang Jiang really couldn't hear his voice.

At this time, an adjective flashed in Yang Jiang's mind, as thin as a mosquito, which may be more appropriate to describe Zhao Ku.

"He sings on stage, he sings so well, but in private he doesn't seem to be good at words." Yang Jiang had a better understanding of Zhao Ku in his heart.

Yang Jiang nodded with a smile and said, "Hello." ”

After a brief greeting, the two did not speak again.

And Zhao Ku clenched his fists, feeling the sweat in his palms, he was really too nervous, on the occasion of so many people, he took the initiative to talk to Yang Jiang, and he really mustered up courage.

Zhao Kulai came to participate in "Avenue of Stars", mainly with the idea of trying to experience, even if he really won the championship, he didn't plan to sign a contract with those entertainment companies to debut, he would still go back to the orphanage, but he didn't expect that in the process of participating in the show "Avenue of Stars", he came into contact with Yang Jiang, and was immediately attracted by this excellent and handsome big boy.

It would be a sin for such a good person not to make a friend!

Therefore, Zhao Ku deliberately did not rush over today, but walked around the CCTV building twice, and estimated that the time was almost up, and then came over.

Sure enough, he saw that Yang Jiang had arrived, and he "naturally" sat on the seat next to Yang Jiang.

After experiencing the initial nervousness, Zhao Ku found that few people around him paid attention to him, and even if there were those who looked this way, they were all looking at Yang Jiang.

Seeing this situation, Zhao Ku also relaxed.

A staff member came to inform that it was time to start applying makeup, and four groups of makeup artists were ready.

Yang Jiang and Zhao Ku sat in close proximity to each other, and their makeup was almost one after the other.

Yang Jiang is still the same makeup method as before, only wearing the simplest light makeup.

After putting on makeup, everyone began to draw lots to arrange the order of the contestants.

"Thirteen."

Yang Jiang looked at the lot he had drawn, and was a little speechless.

In the last issue, he appeared in the nineteenth and penultimate place.

And this time, it's the thirteenth and the third-to-last.

After all the players had drawn lots, the staff came over to do the statistics and put the rankings on the big screen in the background.

Yang Jiang glanced at the rankings of the others.

Zhang Xinran was the first to appear.

Chen Jie is the fifth to appear.

Jiang Wei is the seventh to appear.

"You're the thirteenth to make your debut." In Yang Jiang's ears, Zhao Ku's soft voice like a little sheep came.

Yang Jiang turned his head, his eyes shifted from the screen to Zhao Ku, and said in his heart: "Zhao Ku, the tenth debut." ”

Yang Jiang nodded lightly, although he didn't like to socialize, it was difficult for Zhao Ku to be disgusted with a soft literary young man.

......

......

Studio, reception.

"Avenue of Stars" producer Yuan Fang and director Qin Ming are arranging the scene.

A staff member came quickly, walked to Yuan Fang's side and stopped, and said, "Producer, the lottery has been drawn, and the ranking of the contestants has been decided." ”

Yuan Fang looked at this person and said, "How many times does Yang Jiang play?" ”

The staff said: "He is the thirteenth to appear. ”

After hearing this, Yuan Fang smiled with satisfaction and nodded, "Yes, this one is relatively backward." ”

Yuan Fang specially told Yang Jiang to make the order of Yang Jiang's appearance as low as possible, because Yang Jiang is now the biggest gimmick of the show to attract the audience, put Yang Jiang at the end, many viewers will always see the end, if Yang Jiang appears at the beginning, it is estimated that many viewers will change the channel without seeing half of it.

In this case, the ratings of the show are very large.

Therefore, Yuan Fang did not hesitate to destroy the principle of "fairness" of the show, no matter what method the staff used, it was necessary to make Yang Jiang's appearance order as low as possible.

......

......

Soon, the recording of the third episode of "Avenue of Stars" officially began.

After the host Chen Liang's opening remarks, he introduced four mentors.

The four instructors entered the venue one after another, and the audience burst into warm applause.

Chen Liang spoke for a while, and then announced the first player to play.

Zhang Xinran was the first contestant to take the stage, she played well and sang a song "The Years Are Quiet".

"The Years Are Quiet" is the representative song of Chen Mei, the queen of the current Chinese national song scene, and it is very popular, although Zhang Xinran sings not as good as Chen Tianhou, but it is not bad.

The four mentors finally gave Zhang Xinran a score of 85.

This score is higher than Zhang Xinran's scores in the first and second phases.

After Zhang Xinran, he was the second player, and this player's score was 79 points, which is not low.

The level of the contestants who can be on the stage of "Avenue of Stars" is not bad, and the contestants who have now entered the third phase basically have the singing skills of professional singers.

The contestants ascended the stage one after another in order.

The fifth player to appear on the stage is Chen Jie.

Chen Jie took a deep breath, walked into the backstage passage, and stepped onto the stage.

After interacting with Chen Liang for a few words, Chen Jie began to sing.

In the background, Yang Jiang listened to Chen Jie's voice and nodded slightly, Chen Jie's singing skills seemed to have improved a little.

Although on the stage of "Avenue of Stars", Chen Jie's performance is not as good as Zhao Ku and himself, it is undeniable that Chen Jie is also very talented.

From the first issue to the present, in just two weeks, Yang Jiang can hear his progress from Chen Jie's singing.

Chen Jie's final score was 91 points.

This score has also caused many players in the background to discuss.

On the one hand, this is the highest score since the recording of the third episode, the first one to exceed 90 points. On the other hand, it is also because of the score of 91 points, which is indeed relatively high.

The next few players also took the stage one after another.

Among them, Jiang Wei scored 83 points.

"Next, let us welcome Zhao Ku with warm applause to bring us the song "Time and Dessert"." Chen Liang said.

In the backstage, Zhao Ku, who was originally sitting next to Yang Jiang, had already come to the entrance of the backstage passage, and as Chen Liang's words fell, he raised his legs and walked into the passage.

Zhao Ku came to the stage, because he was nervous, and when he talked to Chen Liang, he couldn't help but stammer.

However, it is precisely because of this little boy-like shyness, coupled with his good attainments in music, that he has captured the hearts of many "old aunts".

After Zhao Ku stepped onto the stage, the audience burst into warm applause to welcome Zhao Ku.

The song "Time and Dessert" sung by Zhao Ku is a relatively niche song, and the original singer is a second-tier singer.

The songs sung by the contestants will be notified to the program team three days in advance, firstly, because they involve copyright, they must communicate with the copyright owner of the song. The second reason is that some contestants have adapted the song and want to record the accompaniment.

Zhao Ku sang "Time and Dessert" and made some modifications, and when this song was sung in his mouth, it seemed to be a few points better than the original song.

Zhao Ku now has his own characteristics in singing, and after his adaptation of "Time and Dessert", the whole song has become sweet, as if it has been soaked in a honey pot.

Yang Jiang had checked Zhao Ku's information before, and the songs he wrote himself, or the songs he sang by other singers, were basically beautiful and happy.

Perhaps it was the misfortune of his childhood that made him have a persistent pursuit of happiness in his heart.

Some people, after suffering hardships, will become cynical.

And some people, after encountering misfortune, will look forward to happiness and still yearn for the beautiful side of this world.

And Zhao Ku is the latter kind of person.

Zhao Ku's song, the four mentors gave 93 points.

Zhao Ku bowed to the four mentors and thanked them, and then turned around and went back to the backstage amid the warm applause of the audience.

Chen Jie in the background was dumbfounded.

In the second period, Zhao Ku's score was two points higher than him, but I didn't expect that in this issue, Zhao Ku's score was actually two points higher than him.

was a little relieved because of the ninety-one points, but instantly fell to the bottom.

It's just that the face is not good to show depression.

Zhao Ku came back from the backstage passage and sat next to Yang Jiang, and many pairs of eyes looked at him.

Zhao Ku's eyes looked at his nose and his nose and his heart, as if an old monk was meditating, and he didn't move.

However, Yang Jiang next to him could feel that he should be nervous.

Sure enough, after two minutes, no one looked at him anymore, Zhao Ku's body sat steadily, and then he moved, he twisted his head slightly, and just happened to look at Yang Jiang who was watching from the side.

Yang Jiang nodded slightly.

Zhao Ku grinned slightly, with expectation in his eyes, and said, "Brother Yang, I feel that you will definitely be as powerful as the previous two issues this time." ”

Belch...... For Zhao Ku's direct words, Yang Jiang said with a smile: "I can only say my best." ”

Zhao Ku nodded, "I know, I know." ”

For some reason, this extremely dazzling genius player on the stage of "Avenue of Stars" actually gave Yang Jiang a feeling of licking a dog.

Yang Jiang secretly shook his head in his heart, no longer said more to Zhao Ku, but began to prepare for the stage.

Soon, the twelfth player stepped down.

Yang Jiang got up and came to the backstage passage to stand up.

The staff has lifted the curtains.

"Next, let's use warm applause to invite Yang Jiang, what he wants to sing for us is still his original song "The Thief of Years".

When Chen Liang's voice came out of the microphone, Yang Jiang took a light breath, cheered up, and walked into the passage.

That's right, in response to the theme of the third issue [Years] given by Ma Duojin, Yang Jiang decided to sing "The Thief of Years".

"The Thief of Years" has sung and cried countless people, and Yang Jiang also likes this song very much.

Don't wait until you lose to know how to cherish it.

Growing up stole the kindergarten, and reason stole the juvenile. Vulgarity steals love, life steals the starry sky. Time does nothing, time steals everything.

After Yang Jiang walked into the passage, he didn't notice the reaction of the other contestants behind him after hearing that he was going to sing an original song again.

Zhao Ku was excited, expectant, and his eyes jumped.

Others, however, are rather dumbfounded.

"? An original song again? How can he write songs so quickly? ”

"Good fellow, what kind of weird guy is this? It's the first time I've met someone like this, who only sings his own songs? ”

"It's so good, no matter whether this song "The Thief of Years" is good or not, just write a song for him in every episode of the show, and I will give him a big word."

Chen Jie's two eyebrows were squeezed together like two caterpillars.

He suddenly had an ominous premonition, Yang Jiang might ...... is about to enlarge the trick again, and I can't help but feel a little sour in my heart, and I regret it a little, I knew that this season's "Avenue of Stars" was so competitive, so he didn't participate.

Although he is still the most famous and highest-ranking contestant in the "Avenue of Stars" program, he is undoubtedly the foil of Yang Jiang and Zhao Ku.

Yang Jiang took the stage.

When Chen Liang saw Yang Jiang coming up, he shouted 'Good Nephew' in his heart, and then greeted him happily.

Purely for Chen Liang, because he arranged Yang Jiang to participate in "Avenue of Stars", the better Yang Jiang's performance, the brighter his face became.

"Welcome Yang Jiang." Chen Liang came to Yang Jiang and said with a smile.

Yang Jiang held the microphone in his hand and said with a smile: "Thank you, Mr. Chen." ”

"Yang Jiang, are you singing an original song this time?" Chen Liangdao.

Yang Jiang nodded.

"It's really amazing, according to the question, the contestant who wrote his own songs, it's the first time I've seen it since I hosted so many seasons of the show." Chen Liang sighed.

Not only Chen Liang, but everyone else also feels the same way.

On the mentor's seat, the four mentors were also shocked when they heard that Yang Jiang was going to sing the original again.

Even the best musicians in the industry don't have such a fast frequency, the key is that the quality of Yang Jiang's original songs is not low.

The four mentors talked in a whisper, and it can be seen that they are all very interested in Yang Jiang's new song, and the photographer also took this shot just right.
