The training intensity of more than ten hours a day has given Chen Minhao a very high sleep efficiency - he falls asleep every day on the pillow.
In another place where Chen Minhao and Zhou Gong met: on Weibo, where there are always thousands of people who can't sleep, a 30-second short video is slowly fermenting and gaining popularity.
The title is: "The creative talent of "The Artist Trainee"", and it is accompanied by a 30-second performance video of Chen Minhao.
The video is not particularly well edited, but the picture is clear and the sound of the song can be heard very clearly.
The boy in the video was wearing a baseball jersey, lowering his head and strumming the guitar, without looking at the camera the whole time.
The songs sung by the boy in the video have no fancy words, twists and turns, or complex arrangements. The boy's voice is clean and simple.
7 a.m. is the time when Chen Minhao’s parents usually open their doors for business.
After a night of fermentation, the two or three most popular Weibo posts of the same type had over a thousand replies and thousands of retweets.
Most of the popular comments are "It sounds so good. Where can I find the full version of this song?" or "Ah, it's so handsome."
At 10 a.m., there were subtle changes in the comments and reposts on Weibo.
First, several netizens replied, "This video is a clip of "Little Love Song" performed by Chen Minhao of "The Artist Trainee"." Then it caused a large number of netizens to forward it.
At 11 o'clock in the morning, the official Weibo of Shenmeng Agency posted a 30-second short video with text: Sky Youth trainee Chen Minhao performed a clip of "Little Love Song".
At 2 o'clock in the afternoon, something magical happened - many celebrities retweeted this 30-second video.
Wan Anqi forwarded it and left a message: "My little junior brother, please take care of me."
He Li, who had just jumped to Shenmeng, also forwarded and left a message: "Now that you have the little fresh meat, don't forget me, the old bacon."
The artists in Shenmeng saw that the brothers and sisters in their company had retweeted it, so the smart artists retweeted it early, and the artists who were not smart enough also retweeted it after their manager's prompting.
The messages forwarded are: My good friend or junior brother, please support me, etc.
Wu Hongrong directly forwarded the video.
Although Wu Hongrong didn't say a word, it inspired many well-known musicians to repost it.
At 4 o'clock in the afternoon, Chen Minhao and "Little Love Song" were tied together and became a trending topic on Weibo.
Wu Xiaoshuang and Kang Hui only slept for a total of 4 hours from the time they watched the show until Chen Minhao became a hot search topic.
After Wu Xiaoshuang experienced this incident, she understood a truth:
There is no love without reason in the world, and there is no hate without reason. There are never any unreasonable hot searches on Weibo!
Even if people who eat melons are really free, it is impossible for them to search in the search box every day, let alone hundreds of thousands of people who eat melons and enter the same keyword in the search box at the same time!
In other words, it is not the people who eat melons that create the hot search, but some mysterious force that first gives the people who eat melons a hot search, and then the people who eat melons follow the hot searches and become the hundreds of thousands or even millions of Screws in search volume.
The two people from the Shenmeng Publicity Department who cooperated with Kang Hui were full of admiration for Kang Hui.
"Trainers create talents", and in the end "you must vote for Chen Minhao", the rhythm should not be too good.
And one after another, the video of Chen Minhao that became popular on the Internet - the smiling boy in the upper bunk - was unearthed. Below is another round of hot comments: "I was a boy two years ago, why am I still a boy [dog] now" and "Tender and tender."
Step by step, step by step, it can be included in the Weibo propaganda textbook.
Chen Minhao, who was recording the show, knew nothing about it.
Chen Minhao and ninety-nine other trainees were being gathered in the large studio by National Producer Representative Zhang Yi to give them the second task: group showdown.
Zhang Yi announced and explained the rules of this group showdown in front of all the trainees in the studio.
"One hundred trainees will be divided into 16 boy groups. They will compete in the form of a boy group singing and dancing performance, and will be tested by national producers. During your stage recording, the audience will also come in to watch and vote. "
"The program team has prepared 8 re-arranged popular songs of various types. There will be two groups of performers of the same song to compete."
"As the C-position member of the filming theme song, Chen Minhao has the right to be the first captain to select songs and team members. The identities of the remaining captains will be determined by drawing lots among all trainees, and the captains will select songs and team members in turn."
As soon as Zhang Yi finished speaking, all the trainees were furious. On the one hand, they felt that the advantage of Chen Minhao's team was too great and unfair. On the other hand, I hope that I will be selected by Chen Minhao and can join Chen Minhao's team.
Zhang Yi ignored the noisy trainees and continued: "The first final elimination of "Artist Trainer" will be held one week after the end of the group showdown, and the 40 trainees with the lowest votes from the audience will be eliminated."
More than two weeks have passed, and most of the trainees are living quite comfortably, attending classes, training, eating and resting together. Although there are exams and tasks, everyone's interest is still very high. They didn't expect that the program crew would shatter their peaceful life so quickly.
Chen Minhao naturally knew that there must be eliminations in talent shows, but he did not expect that the program team would be so generous: eliminating so many people at once.
Zhang Yi still said nothing extra to the noisy trainees, nor did he stop their noise. He just raised his hand and asked the staff to play the music.
Seeing this, Chen Minhao took a deep breath, got rid of distracting thoughts, and listened carefully to the 8 songs.
No two of these eight songs have the same style and type. Chen Minhao was in a dilemma and didn't know how to choose.
He looked up at Zhang Yi and said, "Teacher, can I choose my teammates first and then choose the song?"
Zhang Yi was stunned for a moment, then said with a smile: "Do you want to discuss with your teammates which song to choose? Of course."
Then Chen Minhao thought for a moment and named the four people he had already determined in his heart: "Lin Xiuzi, Gao Dao, Tong Ruize, and Li Zhi."
When it came to the last spot, it took Chen Minhao several minutes to make a decision.
"The last one I chose is Ling Ziyang."
Chen Minhao spoke under the expectant eyes of all the trainees.
Everyone really wants to join Chen Minhao's team. After all, Chen Minhao's strength is obvious to all, and the other people in the team are also very strong.
Chen Minhao really struggled with his last decision for a long time. From a rational perspective, he should choose Zhang Hanyu. The benefits of this choice are very obvious. Zhang Hanyu is relatively strong. And by doing so, the reason for his choice is clear and everyone is more acceptable. Chen Minhao chose his roommate and teammate.
But from a perceptual perspective, Lin Xiuzi doesn't like Zhang Hanyu. This is obvious, and Lin Xiuzi has admitted it himself.
He thought that when Lin Xiuzi stood by him without hesitation when Zeng Shiqin attacked him, he probably didn't have the same rational analysis as he does now. So he finally chose to give up on Zhang Hanyu.
Ling Ziyang is a trainee from Class B who was promoted to Level A. He is good at dancing and singing, but he is not particularly outstanding. The "Taiwan Balm" type person, Chen Minhao chose him as Ling Ziyang, who is a person who is relatively easy to communicate and can understand what others want to express and can also express his own ideas clearly.
This skill is crucial for five people who are unfamiliar but about to collaborate.
