Although Xu Dongyou was aware of the fearful looks from the contestants on all sides, he ignored them.
He looked around at the contestants gathered backstage waiting to go on stage, his eyes slightly narrowed, and he saw the boy he had met once before, the one named Li Ge.
He was also looking around, and finally his eyes fell on the name on Xu Dongyou's name tag. He looked a little unbelievable and surprised, then walked over and said hesitantly, "Xu Dongyou?"
Xu Dongyou had been wearing a hat before, and only took it off when he entered the performance, and put it on again when he came out. Li Ge had never seen Xu Dongyou's face.
Therefore, when he looked at Xu Dongyou, who had an exceptionally outstanding and beautiful appearance, who looked like he didn't look like a human, standing in front of him, he was a little bit unconvinced that they were the same person.
Xu Dongyou nodded and said with a smile: "It's you."
As soon as he heard the voice, Li Ge immediately knew that he had not recognized the wrong person. This voice was extremely unique. There were no two people with the same voice and the same name.
Li Ge immediately laughed and hugged Xu Dongyou enthusiastically, but he didn't dare to completely hug Xu Dongyou's shoulders, as he always had a subtle feeling that he would be blaspheming the other party. "Look, we are destined to be together. It's amazing."
Xu Dongyou also smiled and nodded.
The eyes of the others fell on Li Ge secretly, and they seemed a little afraid. After all, Li Ge looked good. Although he was not as good as the player named Xu Dongyou, he was still a competitor to them.
Especially since these two seem to have a good relationship, who knows, they might choose to partner up. Wouldn't it be easier to get votes if they join forces
For a moment, all the contestants felt insecure and were thinking about how to deal with the situation.
Li Ge noticed the expressions of the other contestants, but didn't say anything. Instead, he continued to chat and laugh with Xu Dong until one contestant after another came up, introduced themselves and performed, and then chose the position they thought should belong to them and sat down. The whole process was filled with a tense atmosphere.
Soon, it was Li Ge's turn to perform. He was singing and dancing at the same time. The song he sang was one of the more popular songs this year, and the dance he choreographed was his own. He danced very well and looked very youthful.
The judges nodded repeatedly and gave him an A+ score. After he finished dancing, they asked him which position he wanted to choose. Li Ge looked at the remaining positions. Only the first and second place, as well as a few positions in the middle and at the end had not been chosen. He directly said that he wanted to choose the second place.
Indeed, it’s not that there are no dancers better than Li Ge, it’s just that he is the only one who is as good-looking as Li Ge and dances very well. His selection of second place makes everyone feel that he deserves the title.
As for the first place, all the contestants couldn't help but think of the one whose looks alone were enough to crush everyone, even the female and male celebrities in the entertainment industry who were famous for their beauty.
In addition, the other person's temperament is also exceptionally outstanding. Although there are many good-looking people in the entertainment industry, those with temperament are rare.
One of them, Yan Yu, was particularly proud of himself. Before coming to the show, he had confidently thought that he would always be the number one. After all, there were not many contestants as handsome as him who could dance and sing well.
Plus, their company bought him a song, and after adapting it, it will surely become a hit.
But his confidence was shattered when he saw the man named Xu Dongyou. Now, after seeing someone who is a little bit more handsome than him and dances a little bit better than him, his confidence is completely gone.
He kept in mind that he was in front of the camera and must not make any ugly expressions, but he felt very depressed and uncomfortable in his heart.
At the same time, there is also a little bit of relief.
I'm glad that I didn't choose the first place, otherwise it would be really embarrassing.
Xu Dongyou was going to perform by singing and playing the guitar himself. He sat on a high stool and quietly sang his own original song. This song was not the best of his original songs, but it was definitely enough for the first opening.
Xu Dongyou thinks the main reason why he has a nice voice is probably because he is a finch. After all, the calls of finches are very clear and pleasant.
The song is over.
The judges gave Xu Dongyou the same A+ score without hesitation, which was better than Li Ge's before. No one was surprised by this, but was full of envy.
Finally, when the judges asked Xu Dongyou which position he would like to sit in, he originally planned to choose a mediocre position, which he did. The other contestants realized this and their faces turned slightly unhappy.
Especially the few contestants who had not yet performed looked so ugly that they seemed to be about to cry.
Now there are only the middle and tail positions left, as well as the first place. No matter who is unlucky enough to get the first place, he will definitely be scolded after the show is aired.
Therefore, the judge who was very good at smoothing things over suddenly spoke up and gently reminded Xu Dongyou: "Hey, kid, you are planning to go to the middle position."
Xu Dongyou nodded.
The judge immediately took an exaggerated breath and made a headache expression, saying, "If I were the director, I would definitely cry. No one has taken the first place seat yet. I wonder if no one will be willing to take the seat after all the contestants come up."
Then she performed again and cried. The other judges followed suit and comforted her, which made all the contestants laugh. The originally nervous mood relaxed a lot.
Xu Dongyou understood and said a little embarrassedly: "Then, then I choose first place?"
There was a little hesitation and trepidation in his tone.
All the contestants were hoping that Xu Dongyou would quickly choose the first place. If he sat in the middle position, it would be embarrassing for the contestants in front.
They all encouraged Xu Dongyou to quickly sit in the first seat. Li Ge even waved at Xu Dongyou and said enthusiastically, "Come on, come on, the air up there is much better."
Xu Dongyou also knew that if he sat in the middle, it would make things difficult for the contestants in front and behind him, so he had to go against his usual habits and sat in the first place with a well-behaved look on his face.
All the contestants breathed a sigh of relief.
Especially those contestants who had not yet gone on stage, they found that they had already broken out in cold sweat on their foreheads, and they quickly wiped it off before going on stage.
After all the contestants have finished their performances, they will start to make some assignments, then move into the accommodation provided by the program team, start recording some of their daily training and life, and finally enter the competition ranking after ten days. The bottom fifty will be eliminated, and the rest will continue to enter the competition.
Until the top ten are decided.
Before handing in his phone, Xu Dongyou told his parents about the situation. His parents expressed their understanding and told him to practice well and not to worry about them.
At the same time, Xu Dongyou asked the captain to notify him immediately if he encountered Zhulong going crazy, and he would carry a psychic watch with him at all times.
The captain said he would.
Only after confirming that nothing was missed did Xu Dongyou hand in his phone. The accommodation locations were ranked according to the scores, so Xu Dongyou, Li Ge and another person named Yan Yu lived in the same room.
The three of them chatted with each other first, then talked about their own living habits, and after confirming that there was nothing that needed attention, they lay down and prepared to sleep.
According to the schedule provided by the program team, we have to get up at six o'clock tomorrow morning and go to the practice room.
They have to go to bed early.
However, since it was the first day of the show, every contestant was very excited and nervous and couldn't fall asleep at all. Some contestants simply chatted in a low voice with their roommates.
But Xu Dongyou was different. He fell asleep the moment he lay down.
Li Ge and Yan Yu were envious of this, and did not say anything to disturb Xu Dongyou, and forced themselves to go to bed early.
The next day, all three woke up, washed up briefly, and went straight to the practice room. After a while, two or three players had already arrived at the practice room. After seeing Xu Dongyou and the others, they greeted them warmly, and then said that if they were assigned to a position next, they hoped that they would be taken care of.
Xu Dongyou and the other two did not refuse, they just nodded.
Soon, the teacher who was hired by the program to lead the contestants in contact also arrived at the practice room, made a simple assignment for the contestants, and then asked them to discuss what type to choose in groups of ten.
Xu Dongyou, Li Ge and Yan Yu are not in the same group, probably because they considered that it would be unfair to other players if the three of them stayed in the same group.
Just separate directly.
Xu Dongyou is not good at dancing, but he is not against dancing. It just so happens that seven of the nine people are good at dancing, and the remaining two are not very good at dancing, so they subconsciously look at Xu Dongyou, hoping that he can refuse to sing and dance.
Because there are ten people dancing together, it is obvious who dances poorly, and there is no way to slack off.
Xu Dongyou felt that the minority should obey the majority and said that he could sing and dance. After it was finalized, they chose a song and dance provided by the teacher and began to practice and adapt it privately.
However, since all seven of them are good at singing and dancing, they all wanted to design more outstanding moves for themselves, which resulted in subtle quarrels and power struggles in the early stages.
Xu Dongyou remained silent throughout the whole process because he was really not good at dancing, but in terms of singing, they all unanimously gave the most important part to Xu Dongyou because Xu Dongyou's voice was really catchy and would help improve their group's score.
After a few days of adjustment, none of the seven people could convince anyone else. In addition, when they heard that other groups had already started rehearsing, the urgency forced them to put aside their opinions and disputes for the time being and carefully analyze and choose each other's movements.
The dance was finally choreographed successfully, and the two people, like Xu Dongyou, were good at changing songs. The three of them were responsible for the main part of adapting the song, and finally blending it together. They rehearsed singing and dancing, and the effect seemed to be quite good, which immediately doubled their confidence and they practiced even harder.
Time passed quickly. During Xu Dong's trip, he would take a look at his psychic watch when he went to the toilet to confirm whether anyone was looking for him. If not, he would just take a look at the task list, through which he could easily find out what events had happened in the outside world.
The practice was intense and made people feel physically exhausted. Xu Dongyou and Li Ge lay down and wanted to fall asleep immediately. Only Yan Yu couldn't fall asleep because of a headache when he thought of those players in his team who were particularly eager to perform.
But it’s not a good idea to complain about this to my agent right now, so I can only keep it in my heart and think about it over and over again.
Soon, the ten days were up, and it was time for all the contestants to show their practice results. They wore the uniformly agreed-upon costumes and performed one after another, and the judges still gave their scores.
Then it will be produced and broadcast, and the public will vote. The one with the lowest votes will affect the ranking, and then the elimination list will be announced in the next issue.
Everyone wanted to perform well this time and gave their 100% strength.
