At eight o'clock in the evening, in the No. 1 broadcasting hall of the Times Building in Gongshu District, Hangzhou, all the audience members were in place. Not long after, a white light shone at the entrance of the audience passage. Then, under the watchful eyes of everyone, the ace host of Jiangsu and Zhejiang TV, Qin Huahua, made her debut.
"Good evening, everyone!”
"This is the venue for the semi-finals of the fifth season of The Voice of China, sponsored by XXX. Tonight, we will have 12 students competing for the final four spots!”
"This is a fierce battle without smoke. Are you ready?”
At this moment, Qin Huahua spoke passionately. Then, she raised her right hand and pointed the microphone at the audience. In an instant, the audience was in an uproar. Everyone was excited and shouted in unison,"I'm ready!"
Upon hearing this, Qin Huahua's face revealed a satisfied expression. Immediately after, he spoke extremely slowly, but he shouted excitedly,"Now, let's welcome our four celebrity instructors. They are Teacher Na Ying, Teacher Wang Feng, Teacher Yu Chengqing, and our…Instructor Zhou Jielun!”
As soon as he said this, the audience was once again in an uproar. Each and every one of them stood up excitedly.
It was also at this moment that the lights flickered and the four celebrity coaches appeared in a blur.
According to international practice, the four celebrity coaches each used a different style of music to sing a representative song of the other party. It was considered a warm-up and brought up the atmosphere of the audience.
Immediately after, the four of them sat down one by one and began to tease each other, taking over the heavy responsibility of being the 'live host'.
"Aiyo, Brother Harlin, your outfit today is really not bad.”The first to speak was Zhou Jielun. He tilted his head and looked at Mr. Harlin, giving him a thumbs up in admiration.
At this moment, Mr. Ha Lin, who was dressed in bright red with a few feathers on his shoulders, heard Zhou Jielun's words and immediately smiled. He said proudly,""Right? Handsome, isn't it? Let me tell you, this is the victory robe I specially prepared for today's semi-finals!”
"With it, my four ace disciples will definitely be able to kill all the powerful enemies and advance smoothly to the finals!”
As soon as he said this, the entire place immediately burst into laughter. Teacher Na Ying and Mister Wang Banbi also started to stir up trouble."Aiyo, very arrogant, very arrogant!”
Hearing this, Zhou Jielun's face was full of smiles. He gave a thumbs up and praised," Amazing, amazing. I can't afford to offend you, I can't afford to offend you…"
No one had expected that Instructor Zhou Jielun would use the 'popular internet slang' to counterattack. In an instant, the entire hall burst into laughter. The atmosphere of the entire hall was pushed to the peak at this moment!
However, the four celebrity mentors were not done with their " slandering process ". Zhou Jielun stood up slowly amidst the laughter of the audience. He looked at Professor Harlin with a serious expression and praised again,"It's true! Everyone, I'm not joking, but Brother Harlin's clothes are really awesome!”
At this point, he suddenly paused and said in a serious manner,"Look at this feather, look at this color. It looks so good on you. It looks like a turkey that's about to be placed on the dining table. I can't help but drool.”
As soon as he finished speaking, the crowd burst into laughter again. Na Ying and Wang Banbi were also smiling non-stop as they gave Zhou Jielun a thumbs up.
"Little brother, it's really good. We really look like turkeys…"
As soon as these words were spoken, it naturally caused a burst of laughter.
Just like that, after the four celebrity coaches criticized each other for two to three minutes, someone finally saw the live director below the stage raise the whiteboard. On it were four bold words: The match began!
Seeing this, Wang Banbi immediately came out to smooth things over."Alright, alright, let's not make a fuss. Let's officially compete.”
As soon as he finished speaking, he suddenly took on the responsibility of the host. Facing the camera, he slowly explained the rules of this match."The four of us will draw lots for this semi-final. We will fight in pairs and choose the four students with the best performance through two rounds of competition!”
"It is worth noting that we will have two rounds in tonight's competition!”
"Moreover, it's a voting mechanism that consists of live voting and off-site voting. The four with the highest total votes will enter the top four and compete for the final championship!”
At this point, Mister Wang Banbi suddenly paused for a moment. He took a deep breath and began to preach with a serious expression,"Everyone may not understand the rules of the competition just now, so I'll explain to everyone what it means to vote on the spot, vote outside the venue, and add the total of the two rounds.”
"What it means is that we will have two rounds in tonight's match.”
"After each student has finished singing, there will be a vote from the 500 live audience members. Then, the audience outside the venue will send a text message to vote outside the venue. The total number of votes will be the final score of the student for this round.”
"But-"
"When the results of the first round are announced, the student will not be eliminated. In other words, the student will continue to participate in the second round. Only when the votes of the two rounds are added up and the student enters the top four will the student finally enter the top four and compete for the championship!”
"So, students, pay attention. Even if you don't perform well in the first match, it's very likely that you'll make a comeback.”
At this moment, as soon as Wang Banbi's voice fell, thunderous applause immediately erupted from the audience, and waves of screams erupted.
……
While Wang Banbi was explaining the rules of the competition, Su Yang and the other students were also discussing in a low voice backstage.
"Tsk tsk, what a black chicken!"
At this moment, the person who spoke was Feng Jiaqian from Zhou Jielun's team. She looked at Su Yang's slightly puzzled eyes and explained in surprise,"The recording of this match is three days ahead of schedule. If the national audience can't see it, how can they vote outside the venue?”
"Isn't this clearly a shady deal?"
"Sigh, I'm afraid that the final four spots have already been decided internally.”
"Unless you perform exceptionally well in the next two rounds of the competition and can make the audience vote for a very high score, and also make those higher-ups feel fear, you will definitely be disqualified this time.”
As soon as he said this, the others all revealed sad expressions, but they did not feel too much because someone had already "communicated" with them before this.
As for Su Yang, because he came late this time, and because his performance was especially good, he gained a lot of popularity. He was already the so-called 'internally selected cadet', so no one talked to him, resulting in him still being ignorant about this' darkness'.
However, when he heard Feng Jiaqian's words, he was shocked. His face was filled with shock, and then he became unhappy.
His expression was gloomy and his mood was gloomy. His gaze was distant, and no one knew what he was thinking.
Perhaps, in his heart, he still wanted a fair and square competition.
