At two o'clock in the afternoon, all the trainees gathered at the designated location and lined up in square arrays of different colors according to different levels.
The jury stood in front of the trainees, and Tang Feng took the line cards and announced the rules of the knockout competition starting tomorrow.
The individual rating assessment has ended, and the next step is group competition. There is a wall on Tang Feng's left hand side. The wall is divided into five areas, and each area has the name of a song posted on it.
Tang Feng first took the trainees to quickly listen to the short melodies of these five songs. Then he told the people present that one hundred trainees would form twenty teams later, and the captain would choose which song to perform. There will be a competition between groups that choose the same song.
After Tang Feng finished speaking, he put his hand into the lottery box that had just been brought up with a smile: "Now I will draw lots. Let's see who the first captain will be -"
As he said this, he took out a piece of paper from the box. Tang Feng glanced at the opened note and said with a smile: "Congratulations An on becoming the first captain of our group competition!"
Everyone present applauded, and they pressed down on the brim of their hats and came out of the team of A-level trainees.
Tang Feng reached out and pointed at the wall with the song titles on it, and asked with a smile: "An, which song do you choose to perform?"
An raised his eyes and glanced at the wall, and soon stood in front of the area with the title of "Machine City".
Tang Feng looked at the other party and said, "Now, please choose your teammates."
Only then did the trainees present realize that all the members of a team were chosen by the captain. For a moment, the faces of the trainees present showed some nervousness.
You must know that An is very strong in singing, dancing and rap, and his typhoon style is relatively mature. If you team up with him, the opponent will definitely be a good teammate. The score and popularity of the entire team should increase accordingly, and the possibility of winning in the group competition is relatively high. If possible, everyone definitely hopes to be favored by the other party.
An didn't even raise his head after hearing this: "I want Mu Cai."
Mu Cai, who was named, had a slightly surprised look on his face.
Although he also felt that An must be a good teammate, he did not expect that the other party would choose him without hesitation. After all, he was not familiar with the other party.
But think about it, An is a loner and doesn't seem to know anyone very well. Then it doesn't seem so difficult to understand that the other party chooses himself who has spoken to him before.
Thinking of this, Mu Cai walked out of the square of A-level trainees.
Seeing the pale-faced young man in pink clothes walking obediently in An's direction, the trainees present were originally eager to be chosen by An, but now their desire to be chosen by An became even stronger, and there was also a bit of strong jealousy.
The first captain was different, he was able to pick Cai Cai away immediately!
They also really want to be the first captain, so that Caicai can obediently come to them!
There was a small flight of steps in front of the wall with the song title on it. Mu Cai walked to the higher step behind An and stood there.
Tang Feng glanced at Gu Yunchen inadvertently. When he saw that the other person had a cold expression and said nothing, he turned his eyes and smiled: "Now, An continues to choose your other teammates."
Mu Cai looked at the phalanx of trainees and saw his former teammates looking at him. He felt a little reluctant to give up. If he had a choice, Mu Cai would still be willing to be with his former teammates.
I don’t know who An will choose.
He was thinking here and there when he suddenly felt a hand gently grabbing his hand. Mu Cai looked down and saw An's earrings shining in the light above his head. A pair of dark eyes looked at him from under the brim of his hat: "Who do you want to choose?"
Mu Cai opened his eyes slightly: "Do you want me to choose?"
An nodded: "It's up to you."
Their voices were not deliberately lowered when they spoke, and they still had wheat on their collars. At this time, the atmosphere in the venue was a little tense, and no one spoke, so everyone could hear what the two said clearly.
The eyes of the trainees on the side suddenly became eager, and they all looked at Mu Cai expectantly.
Mu Cai thought for a while and asked An: "Is there any rap in the song you chose?"
Although he had listened to all five songs before, he only remembered the characteristics of the one he liked better and had long forgotten the others.
An said, "Please come closer, I didn't hear you clearly."
Although Mu Cai was a little confused as to why the other party didn't hear clearly when the two were so close, he didn't think too much and obeyed the instructions and bent down a little. In order to keep himself balanced on the steps, Mu Cai gently put his hands on An's shoulders and continued to ask: "Is there any rap part in the song you chose?"
The young man's shallow breath hit his neck, and he said calmly: "Yes."
At this time, the longing on the faces of the trainees present had turned into jealousy and anger.
This is so scheming! How could he not be able to hear clearly at such a close distance? He was just bullying Caicai's innocence and wanted to take advantage of Caicai!
Mu Cai thought for a moment and suggested: "How about choosing Zhao An? He has practiced rap for a long time and should be able to take on this responsibility, but I..."
In fact, Mu Cai didn't understand this aspect, and he didn't know much about Zhao An's rap level, fearing that it would hinder the opponent.
An didn't give him a chance to hesitate and said directly: "Zhao An."
Zhao An, a happy-looking person, immediately came out of the B-level trainees.
An didn't give the other party a meaningful look, but asked Mu Cai behind him again: "Who else do you want to choose? It's all up to you."
Mu Cai inexplicably felt that the other party was like a foolish emperor at the moment, and she was like a beloved concubine participating in politics. An would listen to whatever he said.
This idea is a bit ridiculous.
Mu Cai shook his head and began to think seriously. Since he joined the "Star Rookie" program group, he has not had many opportunities to interact with other people. He is more familiar with his teammates.
He thought for a while and said to An: "Let's have Li Shengmin, he can sing the chorus."
There are only five people in the group, so it's definitely not possible for all the teammates to fit in. Mu Cai has to make some trade-offs. When the first episode of the program was broadcast, Mu Cai paid attention to the online voting and found that both Liang Yunxi and Li Yuzhe had very high votes, both in the top ten. Moreover, the two of them are very strong and can sing and dance very well. They will definitely be at the core of any team they are in.
Although this time it was a group final, one hundred trainees eliminated forty. But it doesn't mean that if a group loses, everyone in that group will be eliminated. It's just that each person in the winning group will get 500 more votes based on the original vote. The final elimination result will still be based on the voting results of all trainees, and the forty with the lowest number of votes will be eliminated.
Now in this group, he must be the lead singer and lead dancer. Liang Yunxi and Li Yuzhe will be suppressed no matter who comes in. It is better to let them go to other teams to develop and shine.
Li Shengmin's votes are not as high as those of the previous two. Relatively speaking, he has certain strength. He is more likely to win in their team and can get more votes.
As for Ding Nan, Mu Cai couldn't help but feel a little guilty when he saw the normally taciturn person looking at him with hopeful eyes.
They are a team, and Mu Cai knows the opponent's strength very well. Ding Nan is not good at singing, but his dancing is about the same as Mu Cai. The contrast will be even stronger if he comes in, and it is very likely that the team will lose. It would be fine if this team belonged to Mu Cai, but since he was working for An now, he couldn't harm the other party.
"There is another position, who do you choose?" An looked at Mu Cai.
Mu Cai struggled for a while, but finally gave up: "We should still have a secondary dancer. Is there anyone you usually pay attention to?"
An pondered for a moment, looked at Mu Cai with his eyes, leaned over and said, "What do you think of Lin Jiayi?"
Mu Cai felt a little uncomfortable facing the other person's suddenly enlarged face. He stepped back and only said: "Look, I will listen to you."
The corner of An's mouth suddenly twitched: "Okay, then just listen to me." He turned his head and shouted: "Lin Jiayi!"
Lin Jiayi, wearing a blue sweatshirt, walked out of the group of B-level trainees, with a look of surprise in his raised eyebrows.
The other trainees were immediately disappointed, and the audience even let out a sigh.
Gu Yunchen stood behind Tang Feng, looking at Mu Cai with unblinking eyes.
In his mind, he recalled the scene when Mu Cai and An were talking just now.
The young man put a pair of dazzling white hands on the other person's shoulders, leaning down slightly, his long eyelashes gently blinking, and his pale complexion was slightly pink because An was so close.
The distance between the two of them was too close.
So close that it seemed like they were kissing.
The irritability and unhappiness that had appeared many times before appeared again. And this time it was stronger than ever before, causing a rare frown to appear on Gu Yunchen's cold face.
He really wanted to drag Mu Cai over and tell him not to be so stupid and to be fooled by such a small trick. That obedient look and those intimate physical contacts should not be revealed to others casually.
It's best to bloom only in front of him.
Gu Yunchen pinched his hands irritably, realizing that he was out of control.
The loss of control that had not occurred for many years now appeared again because of the possessiveness towards Mu Cai.
Gu Yunchen lowered his thick eyelashes to cover the look under his eyes.
As the draw continued, both Liang Yunxi and Li Yuzhe entered relatively strong teams. Ding Nan was left to the end, and together with the four remaining people who were not chosen, they formed the final team.
The remaining people didn't look good, and Ding Nan's eyes were even more gloomy. He gritted his teeth and didn't look at anyone. He just stood silently under the wall of a certain song with his temporary teammates.
After the teams were selected, everyone was interviewed.
This is the last day before formal training. The staff gave each trainee their own mobile phone and asked them to call their families in front of the camera.
There are only three people's numbers on Mu Cai's cell phone, Wang Li's, Mo's father's and Mo Hengqing's.
Wang Li treated him badly and he didn't want to call her. Although Mo Hengqing was very kind to him, he was the mentor of the program team, and Mu Cai couldn't beat him.
After much deliberation, Mu Cai could only dial Mo's father's mobile phone number.
He knew that Father Mo was in charge of a business group and was usually very busy, so there was a high probability that this call would not be answered. If he couldn't get through at that time, he would tell the program team that no one could handle it.
Unexpectedly, as soon as Mu Cai thought of this, the call was suddenly connected.
Father Mo's loving voice came from inside: "What's wrong with Caicai?"
Mu Cai was a little surprised. He didn't expect that he could actually get through, and the person who got through was Father Mo himself. He quickly said: "Uncle, I'll call you from the program team."
There seemed to be a smile on the other end of the phone: "Okay, how do you feel about Caicai?"
Mu Cai said: "It's very good. I eat well and sleep well here. I even got an A grade, which is the most powerful one."
The other end of the phone laughed: "Okay, I saw it. I have watched your show before, and Caicai performed very well, sang well, and danced well."
Mu Cai didn't expect that Father Mo would actually watch his show. The other party did not formally receive the certificate from Wang Li, and was not even his stepfather, but he still found time to watch his show. Mu Cai was a little surprised, but also a little happy.
He spoke much more relaxedly now. After talking to the other party for a while, he couldn't help but tell the other party to pay attention to his health and hung up the communication.
Mu Cai was very happy to know that someone cared about him. Even the fatigue and nervousness since recording the program disappeared, and he showed a bright smile in front of the camera.
After the secretary of the president of Yaomo Group knocked on the door and entered the president's office, he saw that Mr. Mo had just hung up the phone with a smile on his face.
Which company did you negotiate a big deal with
Mi Shu guessed this in his mind and handed the document in his hand to Mr. Mo for review.
Mr. Mo was obviously in a good mood now. He flipped through the document for a while and signed it after confirming that there were no problems. Then Feng Qingyun looked at his secretary calmly: "That's right."
The secretary lowered his head respectfully, waiting for instructions from his boss.
Mr. Mo asked: "Have you watched the recent Sweet Orange Video's "Star Rookie"?"
The secretary's respectful expression froze on his face. He couldn't help but doubt his ears and asked tentatively: "Mr. Mo, are you interested in getting involved in the entertainment industry?"
They are a trading company. Although they are slightly different from the entertainment industry, as long as they conduct market research in advance and invite experts to provide guidance, with the financial resources of Yaomo Group, it will not be a problem even if they lose a few projects.
The secretary thought to himself.
Unexpectedly, Mr. Mo shook his head: "No, I just want to say, if you watch that show, help me vote for Mu Cai."
secretary:"… "
Mr. Mo had no idea that what he said was shocking: "Also, ask the employees of several subsidiaries if they have watched this show and ask them to pay attention. Those who have not voted can consider voting for Mu Cai."
The secretary felt that he was a little messy in the wind. He said with a stiff face: "Yes, Mr. Mo."
"Oh, by the way," Mr. Mo thought for a while and said, "The suggestion you just made is good. Let's start with movies. Contact a few relevant professionals to see if there are any recent movies worth investing in."
When the president's secretary exited the office today, she felt like she hadn't woken up yet this morning.
The author has something to say: Employees of Yaomo Group:? ? ? Why has the company recently taken on the business of canvassing votes? ? ? But Caicai is so cute, hehehe (?﹃?)
