Many people stay up all night.
After the second rating, the trainees changed the dormitory again according to the rating, and there was no change after the performance started.
A-level trainees are all in a separate room, because there are not many people in the same corridor.
Although the trainees get up and train at different times in the morning, there are speakers in the dormitory, and the sound of the theme song will be played at 7 o'clock every morning as an alarm. If there are students who cannot get up, the latest deadline is when they hear the theme song.
In the past, Qin Lu would arrive at the practice room before six o'clock. After a period of time, the biological clock had already formed. Before the portable alarm clock went off, Qin Lu woke up.
When he opened his eyes, the light outside the window was still dim. Qin Lu covered his arms in front of his eyes and woke up for a while, but did not go to wash directly as before.
After the performance, the second elimination is today. He didn't know the shot allocation when the program team edited, but the votes of some teammates in the last ranking deviate from his expectations.
The sound insulation of the room is not very good. Qin Lu heard the sound of the door opening one after another from the next door. It should be that other people got up early and went to the practice room. Although the theme of the next stage evaluation has not been announced yet, the trainees will not relax and will conduct their own daily basic training, which is what they will do every day before coming to the show.
Qin Lu has not undergone the company's unified training. At first, he followed Liao Junchen to do basic training. After that, he developed a habit. Every time he started to practice in the group, he would arrive at the practice room in advance and finish the whole set.
He glanced at the time, there were still sixty-five minutes before seven o'clock.
Qin Lu's eyes fell on the speaker in the corner of the dormitory ceiling. He paused for a while, and finally, without waiting for the dormitory's theme song, he put on his sports clothes and went downstairs for a run.
Before seven o'clock, Qin Lu returned to the dormitory and changed into the uniform school uniform of the show according to the recording requirements when the overall ranking was announced.
The music is on time. Qin Lu didn't leave the dormitory until the whole song was over.
Studio Three.
The trainees put on the same theme song costumes again. The cameraman is ready to take their place. They will enter the studio one by one in the order arranged by the program team to introduce themselves, and then sit down and wait for the start.
As a personal trainee, Qin Lu was arranged to enter the field at the end. Fan Xi and the others passed by Qin Lu and gave him a cheering gesture. After Su Qinglan changed dormitories, it became more difficult to get up. She rubbed her eyes and looked sleepwalking. After seeing Qin Lu, she felt a little more energetic.
There was a smile in Qin Lu's eyes, he accepted it completely, and nodded solemnly: "Well, probably."
Liao Junchen, who happened to pass by, had a cold expression. He raised a bag and stopped in front of Qin Lu without saying anything.
Qin Lu took it and found two steaming buns inside.
"For me?"
Liao Junchen said "um", "I took too much."
Su Qinglan rubbed her eyes, waved her hands and drifted away as if she had run away. Before leaving, she said, "Pull it down. I didn't see you in the cafeteria this morning. Han Suyan said you were running downstairs, so he turned back and gave it to you. I brought two buns."
Liao Junchen: "..."
Qin Lu looked at him.
After a long while, Liao Junchen turned around expressionlessly, and strode away.
Qin Lu smiled and shook his head and took a bite of the steamed buns. The steamed buns made in large quantities in the cafeteria could not be said to taste good, but they brought a touch of warmth to the empty stomach.
When he was running in the morning, he didn't actually think about many things. He just thought that he might say goodbye to his relatively familiar teammates today, and he wanted to listen to the theme song in its entirety.
When the staff signaled him to go in, Qin Lu had already eliminated two buns, and the lights were as bright as ever when he walked in.
The pyramid, which had shrunk once, was halved again. The regularly arranged seats looked sparse, and the rows of seats directly opposite were filled with waiting trainees.
Everyone's state seems to be a little different than the first time, and they seem to be relatively well adapted and able to accept it calmly. Just how many people lost sleep last night is unknown.
Qin Lu was still sitting at the end of the first row, Han Suyan was next to him, and the other individual trainees had already been eliminated last time.
Han Suyan's state still looked very dull, and he couldn't tell whether he was satisfied or disappointed with yesterday's performance. Seeing Qin Lu walk up to him and sit down, he didn't ask him why he went for a run in the morning, but just stretched out his hand in front of him.
Qin Lu: "?"
Han Suyan lowered her eyes: "Did you forget something?"
Qin Lu was stunned for a while, with a bit of confusion in his eyes.
Han Suyan looked at him lightly: "It was the first performance rehearsal, you said there were lollipops."
Qin Lu: "..."
He forgot.
Han Suyan read the information, and withdrew her hand flatly, not looking angry.
Qin Lu really didn't think of it, and he didn't expect that it had been so long, and Han Suyan still remembered it.
He felt that this was a bit bad, so he thought about it and said, "Let's go out from the training base."
Han Suyan nodded.
Producer Cui Zhihao adhered to the consistent principle this time and entered the studio on time.
To be honest, before coming to this show, Cui Zhihao was a popular actor that many trainees liked. But now after this period of time, every time the producer Cui Zhihao appears, it is either an assessment or elimination, and the trainees have started to see Cui Zhihao and start ptsd.
As long as producer Cui Zhihao smiles, there must be something big.
The process of the elimination announcement is similar to the first time, whether it is the producer who sold the secret or the tense atmosphere, the only difference is the number of votes.
The last trainee who made the cut was about 30,000 votes, but this time it was doubled.
With 60,000 votes, toeisup was the first to be named, and as the second-to-last in the promotion, he was called to the stage and sat in the promotion area.
His ranking dropped, and he was just a mile away from being eliminated.
When toeisup made his speech, he was a little confused and at a loss, but he still bowed deeply to the position of the camera.
Unexpectedly, Nan Xiao's ranking not only did not move up, but even dropped to tenth place in one breath, and dropped out of the debut position directly from sixth place.
If you don't advance, you will retreat, and Nan Xiao understands that this is not a good sign. The audience may have support and some sympathy votes for his re-choice of his debut, but these emotions will not last for long, and many people have no fresh feelings about Nan Xiao, who has debuted for many years, but it is not as good as a completely vegan face.
He felt a little heavy, but he didn't show it. The only thing that can be done is to firmly seize the opportunity of the next performance and find a new breakthrough.
From sixty-five to thirty-five, the number of people has dropped sharply, and the speed of the rankings is relatively fast.
"Now the first debut position and the ninth-ranked trainee in total votes are announced." Producer Cui Zhihao smiled, but his expression didn't mean anything.
"Han Suyan."
Qin Lu was startled for a moment.
There was a commotion among the trainees.
"How could it be Han Suyan, God!"
"Ah this... Has his ranking dropped? Where was Han Suyan last time?"
"It did drop, and it dropped a lot. He announced the top three with Qin Lu and Liao Junchen before, have you forgotten?"
"This position is a bit dangerous. It seems that the debut position is not completely unchanged. It fell directly from the third to the ninth... This is a bit cruel."
The trainees couldn't help but talk to each other. It's really that this ranking change is a bit unexpected—
Why
If it is because the second performance is not very good, it has not been broadcast yet, it should not be because of this reason.
So why is that
Not only the trainees didn't understand, Han Suyan was also stunned.
He reacted for a while, and quickly adjusted his condition and stood up.
Qin Lu didn't move. He watched Han Suyan walk to the front of the stage to give a ranking speech, thoughtful.
Han Suyan was originally a less talkative character, so his expression was actually not much different from usual. Except for the slight squinting of his eyes at first due to an accident, the rest of the time still looks light and everything is as usual.
But Qin Lu knew that he was definitely not as indifferent as he seemed.
Next, the rankings of the others also changed, but they were not as bad as Han Suyan. Nan Xiao lost four places and everyone could guess the reason, but Han Suyan dropped six places directly from the third place, even faster than Nan Xiao's whereabouts, which seemed abnormal.
It's just that now everyone is in a closed state and there is no way to know the reason.
The remaining high-ranking trainees only rose or fell slightly, but none of them fell out of their debut positions.
Nan Xiao fell out of the top nine, which means that there will be a new candidate to join. For this candidate, almost no one of the trainees guessed—
Chu Xinyi's ranking rose surprisingly fast, and he directly reached the eighth place.
Not only the trainees, Chu Xin is also stupid.
He was stunned, sat on the seat, and didn't move for a long time after hearing his name.
It was producer Cui Zhihao who laughed and joked if he wanted to hear him recite his name a few times before he stood up in a hurry, and then went on stage stiffly with his hands and feet.
Having never heard his name, Chu Xinyi originally thought that he was probably eliminated.
Unexpectedly, he had persuaded himself to accept the result of being eliminated, and waited calmly for the top nine to be announced, but the results were far from the same.
Not only was he not eliminated, he also entered the debut position and won the eighth place!
Chu Xin also doesn't know if the program team gave him more shots later, his mind is a little blank now, and his hands are shaking while holding the microphone.
Being stared at by everyone, Chu Xinyi was dizzy with the huge surprise, and stammered: "Thank you to all the fans who voted for me... I didn't expect, really didn't expect..."
His eyes swept over the unexpected and slightly suspicious expressions of the trainees, stunned for a moment, and subconsciously looked at his teammates in the previous game. Ji Yan has not been pronounced his name so far, and Yu Zifei has always been expressionless. After meeting Qin Lu's calm and bright eyes with encouragement, Chu Xinyi's heart was inexplicably calmed down because of his nervousness.
He exhaled, and his bewildered voice gradually became firmer again: "I don't know what made everyone see me, but I have been practicing hard for this day for many years. Originally I thought, if this show If you can’t make your debut, just go home and find an ordinary job, and stop chasing unrealistic dreams.”
He sniffed and laughed: "Now I think, if I can't make my debut, I can be a singer in the farmland, and I can be the king of square dance on weekend nights when I go to work in 996! You can do whatever you want, wherever you want.”
A few of the trainees started laughing after hearing this, and Chu Xinyi smiled and bowed deeply, "Thank you to everyone who voted for me. If I am lucky enough to make my debut, I will seize this opportunity and work hard. , lived up to everyone's expectations of me. Thank you all."
Producer Cui Zhihao smiled and nodded: "I can see that the manuscript was not prepared in advance."
Everyone laughed.
He continued: "But it's good, I can see that your mentality has been adjusted very well. Keep going!"
After Chu Xinyi took his seat, he finally relaxed and grinned happily.
Su Qinglan took the third place. The little curly hair was very happy. When he came to the stage, Rory talked a lot, and he wished he could even thank the air, which made the trainees who were originally low at the scene laughed out.
The last two remaining people were still Liao Junchen and Qin Lu.
Everyone is looking forward to this moment, whether it is the staff or the trainees, when it comes to the last part, they can't help but feel excited.
When the two stood in front of the stage at the same time, waiting for the announcement of the result, the director arranged for the cameraman to aim at the two people from all angles, making sure to capture all possible potential micro-expressions and first reactions.
"Everyone should still remember the results of the last time." Producer Cui Zhihao raised his eyebrows with interest. "The final vote was only two digits apart. Now everyone, including me, are very curious about how much the difference will be in the votes this time. Which trainee will win?"
All the trainees on the scene have no communication with the outside world, so they don't know the changes happening on the Internet, nor do they know that Lu Xi has done disguised propaganda to Qin Lu.
Who would have thought that Lu Xi would upload a photo with Qin Lu? And it was not arranged by the director team, it was completely spontaneous.
Cui Zhihao and Lu Xi are not mutual friends. In fact, they have only met each other but don't know each other, so he is surprised by Lu Xi's help to Qin Lu.
This must mean that Qin Lu himself must have his own uniqueness, otherwise, although it was just a little effort, Lu Xi didn't seem to have such a good-natured personality before.
In fact, none of the directors, including Cui Zhihao, thought that Qin Lu would be where he is now.
He had seen the video of Qin Lu's interview, and his performance was very average, and he even said that it was generally a little too friendly. At that time, the reason why they let Qin Lu pass the audition was that they wanted to use Qin Lu Xueba's name to make a gimmick in the first issue, and then he was eliminated with him. But no one expected that after the actual recording of the show, Qin Lu's performance exceeded everyone's expectations.
Low-key, hardworking, good character, amazing talent.
The director's team could only attribute this to the fact that they had lost sight of it at the beginning. As for the number of votes that Qin Lu surpassed the program planning's expectations later, they had to pass on the usual saying in the circle that "the popularity depends on fate".
No one supported him, and he walked steadily step by step.
Now looking at the number of votes in the hand card, producer Cui Zhihao understands that it is impossible for the director team to play tricks on the debut.
If there is no principled problem in the later stage, Qin Lu's occupation of a debut position is almost a certainty.
"The second place is now announced."
In fact, the people at the scene were not surprised that who of the two took the first place.
So after producer Cui Zhihao announced that Qin Lu had won the first vote in the second overall ranking, the trainees quickly accepted the result.
Liao Junchen looked at Qin Lu with no change in his expression: "Congratulations."
Qin Lu tilted his head and smiled: "Tomorrow morning, I will bring two more steamed buns to the practice room to do basic exercises together?"
Liao Junchen nodded.
Producer Cui Zhihao smiled and shook his head: "I guess the show crew must have a headache. How do you edit your relationship after such a good relationship?"
Qin Lu glanced at Han Suyan, who seemed to be in a trance in the ninth place, and calmly retracted his gaze and smiled: "It can be edited. I believe the editors should be very professional."
As long as it is the effect the program team wants, change the sequence slightly, cut the conversation object, and cut any picture.
Producer Cui Zhihao only thinks that he is saying that editors have strong professional skills.
After all the top trainees have been announced, only the last trainee who has been promoted has not been announced.
Ji Yan has not been named yet, because he was the last one who passed the line at a low altitude last time, so producer Cui Zhihao specifically asked him how he feels now: "Ji Yan trainee, do you think you are lucky to be promoted this time? Will it still be you?"
The named trainee took a deep breath, shook his head and said honestly, "Although I really hope to advance, I don't think I will be so lucky this time."
The probability of wiping the line twice in a row is even lower than simply advancing.
Ji Yan himself felt that it was unlikely.
In fact, such a miracle did not happen. The last trainee who was named actually didn't have any expectations. When he heard his name, he couldn't help crying.
After he finished his testimonials, producer Choi Ji-ho asked Ji-yeon what he was thinking now.
In fact, this is one last shot for Ji Yan. As for how he develops after leaving this show, it still depends on him.
Ji Yan stood up, took the microphone and said with a smile: "Although I was eliminated, I have met many good friends and collaborated with great seniors and teammates on the stage, so I have no regrets. In fact, this It's much better than I imagined."
He thought for a while: "Before I came here, or in the early stage of the recording, I was very unconfident. My strength can only be regarded as the downstream. Although I tried my best, I still felt that I couldn't catch up with others, which was very frustrating. But the opportunity for me to cheer up was I don't know who voted for me when my favorite trainee voted."
Ji Yan, who was eliminated, was not sad. He recalled happily: "I didn't have any close friends before that, so the other party should just noticed that I was not in good shape. But anyway, this The vote gave me a lot of confidence and encouragement, and I am very grateful to him."
Ji Yan grinned and said, "I'll watch the show when I go back, and I'll keep chasing the show until then, maybe I'll know who the person who voted was! I'll vote for him in return!"
Qin Lu on the Pyramid seat was taken aback for a moment, and he touched his nose uncomfortably.
What he doesn't know is that when it is broadcast here in the future, the barrage will be full of "Hahahahaha it's Qin Lu" and "Curious about Ji Yan's expression 23333".
After all the promoted trainees were announced, thirty-five trainees bowed forward—
In the next knockout round, they will also try to stay until the end!
There is no time for the trainees to say goodbye.
After the announcement of the overall rankings, all trainees will immediately take up the evaluation requirements for the third public performance, and those who are eliminated at the same time need to leave immediately.
This also means that when the advanced trainees finish recording and return to the dormitory, the eliminated trainees have already left.
In charge of introducing the details of the third performance is Yao Chen's tutor.
He seemed to be getting used to the status of a mentor more and more, and when he held the hand card, he still had the serious and serious feeling of mentor Cui Zhihao. But once you laugh, it's not a deterrent.
"Are you all curious about the rules of the third public performance evaluation?" Instructor Yao Chen narrowed his eyes and smiled, "The last time was a personal battle."
His implication made the eyes of the trainees light up.
Sure enough, Yao Chen's tutor continued: "The third evaluation is a team battle!"
The trainees cheered.
No one wants to compete within the team. Because of the same stage, strong teammates are needed for the overall effect to be good, but strong teammates mean that the chance of getting reward tickets is decreasing.
But team battles are different. The stronger your teammates are, the better. Even if your teammates are strong, if you win, you can get votes together even if you are not strong enough.
"I believe you will like this stage very much. Five well-known composers will each provide you with a brand new song, which means that you will be the original singer of that song."
The trainees' eyes widened instantly.
"What! There is such a good thing!"
"Wow, the show team is really amazing."
"It's great to be promoted, even if you can't debut, you can still have a song that is marked with the original song and belongs to you."
Qin Lu hugged his knees and listened quietly. He thought, this time he was finally standing on the same starting line, and he was no longer the only one who didn't know anything about songs.
"Five songs, five styles. Next, let's take a look at the dance choreographed by the five songs. After listening to the complete song, you will immediately choose the song."
During this period of time, he has been taking dance and music lessons, and Qin Lu has also learned a lot about songs.
The five songs are the traditional Hiphop songs, the EDM style with more brainwashed melody, the strong rhythm pop style often seen in big hit groups, the Trap that is more commonly used abroad, and the style of light-hearted sweet songs.
The difference is huge, but each has its own advantages, and the trainees are all entangled.
Instructor Yao Chen didn't give them time to think, and immediately started the selection process: "According to the three groups of positions in the last performance, the top ones will be selected first."
Someone couldn't wait to ask: "Teacher, which group to choose first?"
Instructor Yao Chen smiled slightly: "You guys have a fight."
Trainees: "...??"
Instructor Yao Chen touched his hair a little embarrassedly, "Cough, just kidding."
"Three numbers, come up and draw lots yourself."
The three prepared blind boxes were placed on the table. Qin Lu, Su Qinglan, and Nan Xiao stepped forward as the first of the three evaluation positions and chose one one by one.
Su Qinglan was the first to tear it apart excitedly, but with a tragic expression of being struck by lightning, she smiled dryly at the trainees who were looking at him expectantly, "Uh, we choose last."
"No way!!"
"Ah, I'm going to die..."
Qin Lu was really lucky, he smiled and showed his teammates the note with "1" written on it.
"Long live God Lu, hahahahahahaha!"
"Great haha!!"
Instructor Yao Chen added: "There are thirty-five people in total, and they are divided into five groups, and the upper limit of each group is seven people. The name of the song is posted on the door of each practice room, and each person directly enters the room after selection. Once there are more than seven people, they will Someone's going to be kicked out of the team."
The trainees all had big heads and were blindly selected. The latter choice is still a loss.
Instructor Yao Chen pretended not to hear the mourning of the trainees, smiled and signaled Qin Lu to go to the practice room first.
Qin Lu entered the empty corridor and scanned five different rooms.
Which one do you choose
