It's quite a sight to see as the two mentors disagree over the ratings of the trainees. The smell of gunpowder on the mentors' stage intensifies as two extensions are pointed at Qi Xingchen and Wei Qin's faces.
Seated from left to right at the mentor's table are Qi Xingchen, Chen Jiayi , Bai Ye , Zheng Yuyang , Wei Qin. 2 people and a camera away, Qi Xingchen struggles to maintain his expression.
Faced with such a situation, he knew that the best way to deal with it was to follow Wei Qin's advice.
First of all, Wei Qin, as a dance instructor with more than ten years of experience, is highly persuasive in casting doubt on Han Qing's dancing abilities.
And secondly, if he speaks out, when the show airs, it's bound to be questioned by viewers.
What is Noah's Entertainment? It's Starlight Observer's own company. When Starlight Observer speaks for Noah's people, there's a chance that they're harboring something personal.
Even with so many people on the scene staring at him.
--But Qi Xingchen didn't want to obey Wei Qin.
He had a clear conscience about the grading just now, having watched the entire performance from the perspective of an onlooker. He even recorded the strengths and weaknesses of each trainee, and Han Qing definitely deserved an A or A- grade.
"I think ......" Qi Xingchen was very polite, "Is it not comprehensive to judge a contestant's dancing standard only based on the lifts?"
"They're a team, and the team will analyze each person's ability, and then assign roles. Since the one assigned to No. 3 is the simpler Part, it's enough to show that he doesn't have much of an advantage in dancing. What Time is looking for is an all-round idol." Wei Qin organized it clearly.
After the mentors turned off their hand mics, the trainees on stage couldn't hear what they were saying, but they could tell that the atmosphere between the two wasn't very harmonious, and Han Qing was sweating.
At this point, Bai Ye interrupted, "Since there's an objection, let's let No. 3 dance again, and choose a difficult maneuver, okay?"
"Yeah, yeah, let's dance again as an extra round." Zheng Yuyang helped to round off the game.
Qi Xingchen and Wei Qin nodded in agreement, but Qi Xingchen wasn't afraid at all.
He knew Han Qing's dancing prowess very well, not to mention the fact that they had a month of devilish training together before they came here, which had improved a lot.
As expected, Han Qing was more competitive and danced to the music randomly played by the music teacher.
I was a little nervous about being pulled out for a solo performance, but I was able to stand at the front of the line among the trainees who had already appeared.
Noah ended up with two A's, one B, one C and one D.
The strength of the next trainees varied, and there were a few times when we disagreed. For example, for those who are particularly strong in vocal but average in dance, or those who are particularly strong in dance but have shortcomings in other areas, as a starlight observer, Qi Xingchen cautiously gave an A, leaving all the rest to be handled at a B level.
When the theme song has been learned, there will be a second leveling, at which time the level placement can be adjusted again based on the player's performance in the theme song.
Gradually, it became darker and darker, and the mentors, whose spirits had been on edge, became more and more tired.
Twice Qi Xingchen was unable to sit with a sore back and secretly twisted to the right and left, Yu Guang glimpsed Bai Ye still sitting straight and went back to the right.
The penultimate and second group, the remaining two trainees of the "high hand" came on the stage one after another.
The one in the penultimate group was just as strong as the first A's solo trainee and got an A on his own.
But in the penultimate group, Qi Xingchen is a bit hesitant.
His name is Kevin and he is a trainee of C Entertainment China.
C Entertainment is headquartered in South Korea, and Kevin is a Chinese-American hybrid who was selected by C Entertainment from the United States. With his good looks and strength, Kevin has gained a lot of fans even before his debut and is widely sought after.
In short, Kevin grew up in the US, practiced in Korea, and was sent to China to compete. It's probably because C Entertainment sees a gap in the domestic idol market in China and wants to capitalize on his mixed-race status and mass base to get a piece of the action.
C Entertainment had sent up a total of three trainees this time, and the other two were Chinese, whose performances just now were not too impressive.
Only Kevin's dazzling Breaking, and original American underground Rap held up the show.
Anyone with long eyes could see that he was the red flower being set off.
And what has Qi Xingchen stumped is ......
"Kevin," Qi Xingchen turned on the microphone, "can you sing another song, or show some Chinese Rap."
A nearby teammate whispered into Kevin's ear, and soon Kevin stammered, "I'm sorry, I only know a little bit of simple Chinese."
"Never practiced Chinese songs?" Qi Xingchen asked.
Even if you don't know Chinese, you can still sing a song or two by marking the phonetic transcription, right?
Kevin looked embarrassed and said in English that he really didn't know any Chinese songs, and then sang an English song.
Tone and range are average, pitch is OK, thus the company positioned him as a rapper plus lead dancer.
Bai Ye turned off the mike and asked, "Which level does everyone think."
Chen Jiayi : "Great image, presentation, I'd give him an A."
Zheng Yuyang : "The Rap is bombing, the beat is great, I can hear it even if I don't play rap, I want to give it an A too."
Wei Qin : "A, his dancing can be ranked in the top 5 of all the trainees."
"But he doesn't know Chinese is the big problem,"
Qi Xingchen thought for a moment, "Time is looking for the trainee who led our country's idol era. If he hasn't been able to speak Chinese, it's unlikely that all the song selections in the following session will be English Rap, what should we do then?"
And there's one thing Qi Xingchen didn't say.
I knew I was coming to compete, but I didn't prepare a single Chinese song, and I couldn't even understand simple Chinese.
It was obvious that he had a casual attitude and didn't take the show seriously.
"So," Qi Xingchen continues, "I'm inclined to give him a B first, with the flexibility to adjust the grade when we see how the theme song performs."
Chen Jiayi and Zheng Yuyang were in a difficult mood, Wei Qin saw that they didn't say anything and retorted, "The theme song is all in Chinese, Kevin has to learn it. If the result is the same, why wait for the next time to tune A?"
"That's why my conditions aren't harsh, as long as he can seriously learn the Chinese theme song, he can return to Class A." Qi Xingchen splits hairs.
The two went toe-to-toe for the second time today, and the chief director was so happy he almost exploded.
Where can I find such great material, such a great watch!
The studio was at a standstill for a while, and nothing could be heard except the "hum" of the machines.
Half a minute later, Bai Ye was the first to break the silence.
"Everyone has a point, but I'd like to observe Kevin's attitude a little more," Bai Ye said lightly, "I agree with Starlight Observer."
Chen Jiayi and Zheng Yuyang gave the "OK" sign.
Wei Qin lowered her head, her face clouded over.
.
Bai Ye declared Kevin's grade a B.
The moment he heard the result, Kevin was in disbelief, forgot to bow and headed backstage!
The teammates he had left behind bowed and thanked him, hurrying to catch up in a hurry.
The last group of trainees didn't have any problems and the mentor's part of the day was successfully completed. The choreographer gave the mentors a little meeting as usual, after which Bai Ye and the others left.
The trainees were not allowed to leave and change into uniforms belonging to the colors of the rank for the first voice-over interview.
The interviews consisted of nothing more than dissecting whether or not they were satisfied with their performance, whether or not they were satisfied with their mentor's ratings, which opponents they were more concerned about, how far they felt they could go, and so on.
When interviewed about the first A, he laughed and said, "I was most surprised by Kevin's rating. A long time ago, I saw a video of him Rap on Facebook and it was really, really strong. I thought I was dead when I found out before I entered that he was coming too."
Sub-Director: "So what do you think separates him from the A-list?"
First A waved his hand, "Guess not, he has no flaws."
When it was Han Qing's turn, Han Qing showed her baby teeth, "I think everyone is very strong, including my brothers and sisters in the same company, I just hope I can stay for a few more rounds, nothing else."
Co-Director: "I'm curious about your team's role assignments, why are you down there for every lifting maneuver?"
Han Qing makes a Popeye face: "Because I'm strong and I can lift!"
The assistant director was brought to laughter by him, and after Han Qing finished laughing, he explained, "Actually, it's Xiao Wu. He recently had a throat infection and couldn't sing high notes, so we decided to give him the most colorful part of the dance, so we couldn't let anyone fall behind."
By the time Kevin arrived, he seemed much calmer and said to the camera, "I was so impulsive today, I forgot to say thank you to my mentor, Sorry."
"Okay, I'm sure the tutor can receive your apology."
The program team switched to an English-speaking editor to communicate with him, "Are you comfortable with ratings now?"
"No acceptance, I think it's important to be REAL, I don't want to force myself to say I accept it," Kevin shrugged, "The fans know what I'm capable of, and I'm sure you'll be able to tell on the next stage."
Edit: "So can you guess where you upset your tutor?"
Kevin : "Cultural differences. I just looked up Mr. Keith's profile and he didn't go to college, so he probably can't take in the newest underground culture in America."
At that time, after his performance, only Qi Xingchen picked her up and he communicated with her, so I can guess it was Qi Xingchen who demoted him.
This is a very revealing remark, satirizing Qi Xingchen's low level of education and his inability to understand English.
The editor froze as he listened.
So outspoken and REAL.
But the more such players, the more likely they are to get attention from a bunch of people who are all about "hello, me, me, me, me, me".
And after the interview aired, Qi Xingchen commented again that Kevin has to think things through. Otherwise, the slightest mistake will be criticized as an opportunity for revenge.
It's cool and puts the opponent in check, and the response is pretty awesome.
.
For the second recording, Qi Xingchen had to go into the practice room, so it was not suitable to do too formal styling. Stylist Jiang Jiang put Qi Xingchen's head rolled and fluffed, changed into a black sportswear, long legs against the sky, the proportion of the body advantage is revealed.
The other instructors were in similar attire, and when all the trainees had arrived, the group entered the large classroom.
Facing the practicing students who had already stood up, Bai Ye took out a cue card, "Your next task is - to learn the theme song in separate classes. The time limit is three days, and we will accept your results one by one after three days."
"What, three days? Learn a whole song, a whole dance?"
"It's too short, isn't it?!"
There was a commotion among the trainees.
Knowing that the scene would be like this, Bai Ye put down the cue card and coldly swept a glance at them, "Is three days short?"
"...... Short." Four or five trainees answered in whispers.
"Okay, Xingchen, help me with my clothes."
Bai Ye takes off his tracksuit jacket, tosses it to Qi Xingchen, and uses his cell phone to find the accompaniment to the theme song, turning it up to maximum volume.
He then performed the theme song in its entirety, following the accompaniment!
Lyrics, pitch, rhythm, dance steps, walk ...... Flawless.
The large classroom burst into applause!
Bai Ye gasped slightly and adjusted his breathing before saying, "This is what I practiced in three hours last night when I came home from taping the show. You guys have extended it to three days and 72 hours, can't you finish it?"
The crowd of trainees could only shout stiffly, "It can be done!"
After listening to the process, the trainees follow the levels and go back to the practice room where they are practicing.
A-F has five groups and five practice rooms. The program requires each mentor to be responsible for one practice room.
Dance and voice have a special teacher to teach, but do not need them to go on, just for show.
Bai Ye thought for a moment, "Ms. Chen will go to class A, Ms. Zheng will go to class B, and we'll split the remaining three classes between the three of us."
Classes A and B have a high average level of students and are more worry-free, suitable for Chen Jiayi, who can't do anything, and Zheng Yuyang, who can only sing.
The two of them left happily, Bai Ye's eyes turned to Qi Xingchen.
As if brain waves had collided, Qi Xingchen immediately read his meaning.
Bai Ye is going to put himself in Class C!
Just now, Bai Ye designated him to take the jacket, almost announcing to the contestants and viewers that the two of them were on good terms. Now if Bai Ye assigns him Class C, he will inevitably be criticized for being biased.
Qi Xingchen quickly snatched, "I'm going to class F!"
"......" Bai Ye frowned imperceptibly, "Are you sure?"
"OK, I'm going!"
Without giving Bai Ye a chance to back out, Qi Xingchen ran away with a whoosh.
Bai Ye had to give up class C to Wei Qin and went to class D by himself.
Pushing open the door of the practice room of class F, the dance teacher is leading the students to do warm-up movements. class F has the largest number of students, and a heat wave is coming to the face.
Qi Xingchen sends a message to An Ran: [Going to the ice store to pack 60 smoothies]
An Ran: "Yes, sir!
After warming up, we entered the formal learning. Maybe Qi Xingchen is young and gentle, the students are not afraid of him, they spread out and talk and laugh.
The students in the front row are fine, but the students in the back row can't hear the teacher's voice. Qi Xingchen couldn't stand it, and clapped his hands vigorously, "Be quiet, pay attention to the lesson!"
"...... Oh." A few people answered sparsely, and the classroom went slow and quiet.
Qi Xingchen could sense that there was a bit of dissatisfaction hidden in that "oh".
The cameraman points the camera at Qi Xingchen.
Two hours later, An Ran and the ice store boy dragged in the smoothies. One portion was given to the F class teachers and students, one portion was given to all the staff of the program, and three portions were given to Wei Qin, Chen Jiayi, and Zheng Yuyang.
Qi Xingchen grabbed a copy and got up, ready to deliver it to Bai Ye himself.
No sooner had I left the house, than Bai Ye came by himself.
"What a coincidence you're here, just when I have something for you." Qi Xingchen hands out the smoothie box.
Bai Ye paused and stifled a laugh as he took it, "I happen to have something for you as well."
The next moment, Qi Xingchen had a bottle of milk in his hand.
Yesterday a bottle, today a bottle, Qi Xingchen could not figure out why Bai Ye loved milk so much, tilted his head, "You think I love milk?"
"Well," Bai Ye said in a matter-of-fact tone, "I was afraid you'd choke that time you did 250ML in one gulp."
Qi Xingchen : "...... Okay."
Bai Ye had his own class to look after, and after dropping off the milk, he headed home. after a smoothie and almost forty minutes of school in F class, the noon bell rang and it was time for lunch.
Because of the need for closed training throughout the program, the Time crew will provide lunch for the mentees. The mentors can eat here if they want to, or go out if they don't, and return to their places before the afternoon recording.
Once the five mentors met and discussed the situation, they all wanted to find out if the mentees were eating well and asked for the location to go to the restaurant.
One foot stepped into the restaurant, and the next foot was surrounded by the mentees. After a few miscellaneous chats, the director, fearing that the delicate tutor would get hungry, signaled the tutees to roll back and eat.
After the participants have left, Chen Jiayi pulls them over to the vegetable racks.
The cafeteria chef gave each of them a dinner plate, so they could clip their favorite dishes in moderation. There was a rich variety of dishes and a reasonable nutritional mix.
After the five of them had finished pinning their dishes, the final shelf held desserts.
【Today's offer: Double skin milk with red bean, Ginger milk
Qi Xingchen scalp numb ...... How's that for milk again!
Chen Jiayi chose double-peeled milk, Bai Ye didn't like dessert and didn't take it.
Zheng Yuyang beckoned his brothers, "Xiao Qi, Wei Qin, which one do you want?"
"I'll have the Ginger Battered Milk."
"Xingchen doesn't eat ginger ale."
Wei Qin and Bai Ye's voices sounded at the same time, and Qi Xingchen opened his mouth, but his words were choked back before they could be uttered.
Zheng Yuyang stared blankly for a few seconds, picking up a serving of ginger milk and offering it to Wei Qin.
Bai Ye looks at Zheng Yuyang with curiosity written all over his face and explains, "Xingchen can't drink ginger juice, it will give him a nosebleed."
Qi Xingchen : "......"
Qi Xingchen : Sabine on oxygen.jpg
...... Why do you keep exposing me!
