The stage lights became brighter and brighter, and the five teenagers on the stage also became dazzling.
Drum beats were added to the music, and five teenagers walked from the back of the stage to the center of the stage at the same time and began to sing the climax.
"It doesn't matter what they say I taste like/Why don't you taste it for yourself/I hope you can treasure my taste/One day you will understand my dream..."
The dance of the five people became different from before. It no longer had a fresh style. Every subtle movement became confident and powerful, and looked sexy and impactful against the background of the drum beats.
Ji Zeyu stood in the middle, his denim jacket slipping slightly due to his dancing movements, revealing a small part of his shoulders, and the black choker on his neck became more and more conspicuous.
Because he was wearing a white shirt underneath, Ji Zeyu didn't pay attention to this small detail and continued to immerse himself in the dance seriously, with a faint smile on his lips.
At this moment, he is no longer the orange soda during class, but a glass of fruit wine placed on the bar counter, somewhere between pure and sexy, seductive but unaware of it.
At the end of the performance, Ji Zeyu looked at the camera, his deep eyes like amber stones, the corners of his lips raised, and his singing voice was full of seductiveness:
"Tear open the hypocrisy and packaging/Do you want to taste it?"
Such lyrics sang from the boy's thin lips, like a very tempting invitation.
The young man left a slightly smiling look in his eyes, then turned around without looking back and walked towards the center of the stage. His back was chic and neat, as if he expected you to agree to his invitation and follow him.
When the music ended, the five teenagers collectively put on the ending pose. Ji Zeyu stood in the center, returning to his original clean and clear appearance.
He smiled at the camera, and his smile had a youthful and youthful look.
Because this was Ji Zeyu's first time trying a sexy style on stage, he was still quite uneasy and a little surprised.
If this style is not well controlled, it will become nondescript and can easily leave a bad impression on others.
Seconds later, the audience erupted into a wave of applause, deafening screams and cheers.
"Ah, he's so handsome—"
"Ji Zeyu! I am my wife's fan tonight!"
"Holy shit! I can't help but feel excited! Feng Yan, I'm sorry!"
"Whoever loves to be Ji Zeyu's mother's fan should be! Anyway, I won't do it anymore! Husband, I love you!"
Ji Zeyu's fans have always been "mom fans", who treat him as an ignorant child and have a nurturing mentality towards him.
As a result, Ji Zeyu acted so sexy and lustful tonight that they were completely unable to continue being "mom fans" and collectively howled to become "wife fans" and "girlfriend fans".
Jiang Li held up the camera and could not recover for a long time after the performance.
There was only one sentence left in her heart: Damn it! Is this still the Yubao I know? !
At this time, the tall man sitting next to her began to applaud, with a slight smile on his lips.
Jiang Li saw Tou Fan next to him and suddenly remembered that this CEO-like man was also a fan of Yu Bao. At this moment, this male fan's eyes were full of...love
The noise around him continued, and the man suddenly turned to look at Jiang Li and asked in confusion: "Excuse me, what is a girlfriend fan?"
Jiang Li was stunned and quickly replied: "Girlfriend fans are... fans who want to be Ji Zeyu's girlfriend."
Ji Zefeng had no expression on his face when he heard this answer, thinking that these girls were pretty daring to think.
But this also proves Ji Zeyu's charm. After the last performance, Ji Zicheng and Ji Mingyun had been praising Ji Zeyu's performance. He didn't believe it at first, but this performance far exceeded his expectations, which surprised him.
"What about you? Are you a career fan?" Jiang Li asked tentatively, and then explained the meaning of a career fan. In her opinion, such older male fans must be career fans.
Ji Zefeng nodded after thinking for a moment, and then said: "To be precise, I am a fan of my brother."
Brother fan? Are there any fans like this? Jiang Li couldn't help but feel confused.
Inside the viewing hall.
Lu Nanyun and others originally wanted to see whose watch Ji Zeyu was wearing, but their attention was completely attracted by the performance.
When Ji Zeyu sang the last line of lyrics, Lu Nanyun could not take his eyes away from his face, Wei Yichen showed a rare stunned expression, and Qi Aodong's cheeks felt slightly hot.
After the performance, it took the three of them a while to react. Then, they discovered at the same time that... the watch on Ji Zeyu's hand was not his.
The expressions of the three people were different, but the same thing was the unwillingness in their eyes.
"Wow, today's performance was so wonderful!"
Today, Nan Lin is the host. She took the microphone, walked to the group of teenagers, and said with a slightly red cheek: "I am so happy to be standing next to so many handsome guys! Do you think it's enjoyable?"
"Enjoyed-"
Later, Nan Lin asked the audience to vote. She already had expectations for the outcome of this competition, because not only the performance of the entire group was wonderful, but Ji Zeyu's reversal charm was also very eye-catching, which was completely unmatched by Feng Yan's group.
The contestants in the singing group A were very nervous. They were sure of winning ten minutes ago. At this moment, they only had regretful thoughts in their minds - if they had known better, they would have put more effort into the stage design!
In terms of strength alone, group A and group B are equally good at singing and singing. Group B is even slightly inferior because of the presence of Xiao Huai. However, Ji Zeyu boldly asked Xiao Huai to only sing rap. In this way, Xiao Huai's "weakness" was eliminated. Ignore it.
Not to mention that the stage design of Group B is so incredible that after watching it, the audience can never remember the performance of Group A.
Feng Yan's Adam's apple rolled up and down, and his fingers clenched tightly into fists.
The votes are announced.
Group B, a group of singers and composers, won with an absolute advantage, with an astonishingly high number of votes.
Ji Zeyu breathed a sigh of relief and bowed to the audience with his teammates to express his sincere gratitude.
The hard work during this period finally paid off.
Just as Ji Zeyu was about to leave, Xiao Huai suddenly picked up the microphone and said in a hoarse voice: "I have something to say to everyone."
The audience immediately fell silent. Only then did they remember that Xiao Huai was a patient who had just recovered, and the rumor that "Ji Zeyu bullied Xiao Huai" was still being spread by some thoughtful people on the Internet.
"First of all, I want to tell my fans that I have been sick these days and have made you worried." Xiao Huai spoke softly, a little slowly because of discomfort in his throat, "Then... I want to thank my captain, Xiao Yu .”
Ji Zeyu was stunned.
Xiao Huai looked at the young man beside him and continued: "For personal reasons, I have always disliked the stage. After coming to this show, I didn't have the confidence to complete the performance. But Xiao Yu... he chose to believe in me."
When Xiao Huai said this, he paused and said with a bit more self-blame: "Maybe I'm too stupid and need Xiao Yu to teach me singing and dancing over and over again, but he never complained. Sometimes, he Will stay with me until two o'clock in the morning."
Ji Zeyu looked at Xiao Huai blankly, not expecting that he would say so many words to thank him. He hurriedly said to Xiao Huai: "Since I chose you as my teammate, I have to be responsible for you, so you don't have to thank me..."
A novel app that has been running stably for many years, comparable to the old book-chasing tool, a source-changing app used by old bookworms, huanyuanapp.org
Xiao Huai raised the corners of his lips, suddenly put his arm around Ji Zeyu's shoulders, and said slightly teasingly: "But there is still one thing to be happy about, that is, I am the one who is sick, not the captain, otherwise I would blame myself even more. "
The audience was moved by the teammate friendship between the two, and many Xiao Huai fans put aside their prejudice against Ji Zeyu and cheered for the two.
"I have long said that those on the Internet are all rumors! There are still fans who don't believe it."
"It turns out that Ji Zeyu worked so hard. I wrongly blamed him. I will definitely go to Weibo to apologize to him later."
"Last time Xiaohuai was disliked by his teammates. Fortunately, Ji Zeyu didn't give up on him this time, so we have such a wonderful stage."
"Ji Zeyu is really gentle and responsible. I am so happy to be in the same group with him."
"The way Xiao Huai looks at Yu Bao is so doting... Is it my imagination?"
When leaving the stage, Ji Zeyu whispered to Xiao Huai: "Actually, you don't have to speak for me... If you don't speak well, you may be scolded."
"Ah, is it true?" Xiao Huai suddenly became nervous, "I was just afraid that they would continue to say bad things about you, so that's why I said those words..." From his words, he must have known about the rumors on the Internet, so he chose Stand up and take the initiative to clarify.
"I'm afraid you will be scolded," Ji Zeyu said, "I don't care."
Xiao Huai remembered that when he rated the theme song, he had also caused Ji Zeyu to be blacklisted by the entire Internet. He was suddenly filled with guilt and said in a low voice: "Then I will ask you for permission before I speak in the future. I will talk about it after you agree."
"You don't have to be like this." Ji Zeyu saw the guilty look on his face and said unbearably, "Actually, what you just said was quite good."
"Really?" Xiao Huai opened his eyes wide and raised the corners of his lips, "Those are all my true words. By the way, let's have hot pot together tonight?"
"Your voice isn't healed yet."
"Then eat something that's not spicy..."
"no."
"Okay..." Xiao Huai compromised aggrievedly.
The relationship between the two was obviously a step closer, and when they returned to the viewing hall, all the eyes of the audience were focused on them. Most people were applauding and congratulating them, and Group A was convinced of their defeat.
Only three of them kept staring at Ji Zeyu's wrist, as if they were trying to poke a hole in the watch on his wrist.
A few minutes ago, a staff member came to the viewing hall and returned three watches to three people respectively.
At this moment, Qi Aodong, Wei Yichen and Lu Nanyun were thinking about the same thing: Whose watch is Ji Zeyu wearing
Because there was still a game ahead, the three of them chose to bury their confusion in their hearts for the time being.
The singing group made a good start, and the remaining contestants did not dare to slack off, and the stage they presented was even more exciting than the first round of performances.
After all the performances, Ji Zeyu's group still ranked first in votes.
The second place went to Lu Nanyun’s dance group, and the third place went to Wei Yichen’s vocal group. The performances of both groups were very exciting, and the number of votes was not much lower than that of Ji Zeyu's group.
Facts have proved that the sexy style Ji Zeyu tried was successful.
As the performance came to an end, the director asked all the contestants to return to the stage for a group photo.
Lu Nanyun looked at the young man in the crowd. After leaving the performance, the boy returned to his original clear and clean appearance, joking with his teammates, and the black men's watch on his hand looked eye-catching.
Lu Nanyun didn't know why he cared so much. It was obviously just a watch, but it made him feel very uncomfortable.
While taking a group photo, Ji Zeyu suddenly noticed a tall and tall figure standing next to him, with a hint of cold aura.
Lu Nanyun looked at him expressionlessly. After a few seconds, his eyes fell on his wrist and said calmly: "The watch is very nice."
Ji Zeyu was stunned for a moment. He seemed to hear a hint of... sourness in these words
Soon, Ji Zeyu remembered that the staff had helped borrow the watch, and thought that Lu Nanyun had misunderstood the owner of the watch, so he hurriedly explained: "This watch does not belong to Wei Yichen."
The protagonist Gong is jealous because the cannon fodder man wears the protagonist's watch, which is reasonable.
"I know." Lu Nanyun frowned slightly, his tone sounding calm.
"Then...is there anything else?" Ji Zeyu asked.
There was some emotion in Lu Nanyun's eyes that Ji Zeyu couldn't understand. He seemed a little unhappy, but the unhappiness was well hidden.
"Is there anything else you want to say?" Lu Nanyun asked, looking straight at him.
Ji Zeyu became increasingly confused and didn't know what else to say.
Lu Nanyun looked at his confused look, couldn't help but clenched his fingers, and his throat rolled. In the end, he didn't say anything and walked away with a cold face.
Ji Zeyu looked at his cold back and muttered in his heart that Bingshan's temper was really hard to figure out.
After leaving the gym, Ji Zeyu met Sister Yun waiting for him at the door.
Sister Yun took Ji Zeyu aside, smiled brightly, and said to him: "Your performance tonight was beyond my expectations. Your stage style has made great progress."
"I was worried that I would screw it up." Ji Zeyu scratched the back of his head, "I didn't expect the audience's response to be quite good."
"Don't worry, it will definitely attract a large number of fans after it is broadcast." Sister Yun said confidently, "Even our CEO Ji praised it after watching it. He is the most vicious person in the entire entertainment industry."
Hearing the word "Mr. Ji", Ji Zeyu hurriedly reached out and took off the watch on his hand, carefully handed it to Sister Yun, and said to her: "Please help me return the watch to my brother, and say thank you for me..."
"Mr. Ji said, this watch is given to you." Sister Yun said with a smile, and then looked at the watch with envy, "I heard that the price of this watch is six figures..." The unit is US dollars.
Ji Zeyu didn't expect that his eldest brother would be so generous and give away a six-digit watch as soon as he asked. Sister Yun borrowed this watch for him. It is said that Ji Zefeng didn't even blink when he borrowed it.
"Perform well in the future and build good relationships with other players. It will be of great benefit to you." Sister Yun reached out and patted Ji Zeyu on the shoulder, "For example, Xiao Huai tonight, after he said these words, everyone on the Internet The rumors have been disproven."
After Ji Zeyu hesitated for a moment, he nodded. In addition to the protagonist group, he really needs to have a good relationship.
Back at the TV station, Ji Zeyu felt sleepy after taking a shower and was about to go to bed when he suddenly found Qi Aodong sitting by the bed and looking straight at him.
"What's wrong?" Ji Zeyu asked doubtfully.
Qi Aodong said nothing, picked up a glass of warm milk and handed it to Ji Zeyu, saying to him: "Here you go."
Ji Zeyu took the milk and said with some embarrassment: "You don't have to prepare milk for me. I'm not a child anymore and I can't grow taller..."
"You are only nineteen, only one year older than me, and you can still grow." Qi Aodong looked at him seriously.
Ji Zeyu was stunned for a moment, and suddenly remembered that he had changed his body. He smiled a little and said, "Okay, I'll drink more and try to grow taller than you."
Qi Aodong slowly opened his eyes and suddenly said: "That won't work."
Ji Zeyu took a sip of milk and said with a smile, "Aren't you happy being taller than you?"
Qi Aodong nodded seriously. He is one year younger than Ji Zeyu, his status in the company is lower than Ji Zeyu's, and his ranking is not higher than Ji Zeyu's. The only thing that can compare with Ji Zeyu is his height.
Moreover, Qi Aodong liked the feeling of Ji Zeyu looking at him from bottom to top.
Ji Zeyu didn't think much about it, just regarded it as a child's naive idea and continued to drink milk.
Qi Aodong suddenly asked: "Do you like this watch?" He asked the question that had been bothering him all night in the most casual tone.
"I like it." Ji Zeyu replied without hesitation.
Qi Aodong was stunned for a moment, a flash of loss flashed in his eyes.
"What's wrong?" After drinking the milk, Ji Zeyu noticed something was wrong with Qi Aodong, "Didn't you win the game tonight? Why are you still so depressed?"
Qi Aodong reached out to put away the cup, shook his head, and said in a muffled voice: "It's nothing."
Ji Zeyu looked confused, why did Brother Aodong become as uncertain as Lu Nanyun.
The next morning, Ji Zeyu met Wei Yichen on his way to have breakfast, and Wei Yichen took the initiative to say hello to him.
Ji Zeyu couldn't hide, so he had to respond politely.
Wei Yichen walked up to Ji Zeyu and his eyes fell on Ji Zeyu's watch.
Ji Zeyu remembered what happened last night and hurriedly explained: "This watch does not belong to Lu Nanyun." He did not want to cause misunderstanding between the protagonist and the opponent.
Wei Yichen was stunned for a moment, then suddenly raised the corners of his lips and said calmly: "I know. But I think... this watch is a little too mature and not suitable for you."
After saying that, the smile in his eyes became even deeper, and even the tear stain looked more charming.
"I quite like this style." Ji Zeyu was stunned and then said. His mental age is already that of a third-year-old, so why should he still like flashy things like a young man
Wei Yichen did not expect to hear this answer, and an unknown emotion flashed in his eyes. He immediately concealed his emotion and smiled as gently as usual: "That's good. Was it given by a very important person?"
Ji Zeyu nodded without thinking.
Wei Yichen glanced at his watch meaningfully, then turned and left. His back seemed colder than usual.
Ji Zeyu was puzzled: Why are all these people interested in this watch
Probably because the watch looks so good, after all, it costs six figures.
The day after the performance, the fourth episode of "Stars Shine" was broadcast, which was the entire process of announcing the rankings of the first stage, which gained a lot of attention.
Some netizens are happy and some are sad. Some are sad that the treasure contestants have left, and some are happy that their idols have risen in the rankings.
The most eye-catching thing is the ranking of the top eleven, which has changed a lot.
Ji Zeyu ranked fifth, which naturally caused a lot of controversy. There are also many people who believe that Ji Zeyu's outstanding performance in the last performance was entirely due to good luck. This fifth place is not worthy of his reputation and he will fall off sooner or later.
Xiao Huai's ranking was originally higher than Ji Zeyu's, but the final result of the first stage was only eighth. Xiao Huai's fans were naturally very unconvinced. In addition, there has been a lot of controversy about Xiao Huai and Ji Zeyu during this period, and some fans can't help but be angry on Weibo.
"How come Ji Zeyu is fifth and doesn't even withdraw from the competition even if he bullies others?"
"I feel worthless for Huaihuai, why is he only ranked eighth!"
"Ji Zeyu was just lucky last time. He is obviously about the same strength as Xiao Huai..."
There are many comments like this, but this time, Xiao Huai's support club took the initiative to stop the fermentation of public opinion.
One of the big fans of the fan club took the initiative to post on Weibo: "Please don't speculate on the relationship between the two." This simple sentence expressed the fan club's attitude.
Xiao Huai's fans were very surprised. Why did the support club, which had always firmly defended Xiao Huai, suddenly say such things
Before these people could figure it out, other people who had been to the performance also spoke out for Ji Zeyu on various major platforms.
"Fans really shouldn't speculate on the relationship between players. Many things are not what they seem."
"After watching The Second Gong, I said that Ji Zeyu and Xiao Huai have a really good relationship."
"Someone said before that Ji Zeyu bullied Xiao Huai and caused him to fall ill. This rumor is too much."
"Not only did Ji Zeyu not bully Xiao Huai, he also led him to complete an outstanding stage. The rumormongers can shut up."
The fans who helped speak out were well-founded and quickly gained the upper hand in public opinion.
Of course, the reason why the public opinion situation can be reversed so smoothly has something to do with Xingyu Entertainment's public relations department. After Ji Zefeng watched the performance, the first thing he did when he returned was to ask the public relations department to deal with the remarks that discredited Ji Zeyu within two days.
Because things turned around, and people who had watched the second round of performances were full of praise for the performance, Ji Zeyu and Xiao Huai's names were on the hot search list for a while, and passersby who clicked in wanted to eat melons. , but found that the comment area was harmonious.
Now it was the passers-by's turn to be surprised—the fans of Ji and Xiao, who were at loggerheads just a few days ago, actually reconciled? !
In addition, everyone has unprecedented expectations for the second round of performances - what kind of "wonderful performance" can Xiao Huai bring? Could it be that the fans were lying
For a time, the comment section of the official blog of "Stars Shine" was flooded, and everyone was begging for the show to be broadcast as soon as possible.
"Hurry up! I want to see the second performance!"
"I'm so itchy. What kind of performance is Xiao Huai's group like?"
"This is the first time in my life that I am looking forward to a program so much."
"Is it true or false? I don't quite believe how well Xiao Huai's group can perform."
"I doubt it too."
"The two of you upstairs, I swear on my head that this is absolutely true!"
Because they signed a confidentiality agreement, the audience who watched the scene could not spoil the content of the performance. They could only say over and over again, "I'll take off the head of Ji Zeyu's group if it doesn't look good." Each one of them vowed to do so, which whetted the appetite of others.
The program team also did not expect that the posters for the second round of performances had not been distributed yet, but they would become popular before they were aired. Ji Zeyu had invisibly helped promote the program and saved a lot of publicity expenses.
