"Awesome, God Lin Xi, sixteen-star.”
"F * ck, these judges are crazy.”
" It's really a drought and a flood. Lin Xi's stars alone are enough for four contestants to advance.”
" God Lin Xi: You know nothing about power.”
"If it weren't for Lin Xi, I would have suspected that there was something fishy going on in this competition. But since it's God Lin Xi, I think 16 stars is very reasonable. I won't accept any rebuttal!”
Some people even discovered a new shortcut to becoming rich: " Can the stars be sold? God Lin Xi, take out the extra 12 stars and auction them off, comical!"
The contestants who had just been eliminated looked at the scores given by the judges and completely collapsed.
This time, they truly understood what the gap between the rich and the poor was. This society was too unfair!
If only he had given them a few stars, he would not have been eliminated.
The program's executive director below the stage was also anxious. Before the competition, he had already instructed the judges to give the stars as much as possible to be balanced and not to widen the gap in the ratings too much. It was easy for some keyboard warriors on the internet to suspect that there was something shady going on with the program.
This was great. He had given sixteen stars all at once. This was too much of a blow to the enthusiasm of the other contestants.
Some internet trolls who had nothing to do all day would definitely come out and complain.
Backstage.
Lin Xi came back to rest after his performance. Some of the contestants stood up and applauded enthusiastically.
But in fact, only they knew the pain in their hearts.
Encountering such a cheat-like opponent was really unlucky.
Especially the player who went on stage after Lin Xi. He had a bitter expression on his face and almost wanted to withdraw from the competition.
At this moment, a familiar voice rang out,""Lin Xi, you sang so well.”
Lin Xi turned around and saw that it was Su Zhilan. Her beautiful eyes sparkled as she looked at Lin Xi excitedly.
"Thank you."
Lin Xi thanked him, and the two of them sat down together.
Su Zhilan could not suppress her curiosity and asked a few questions about Lin Xi's new song.
For example, what were the two lines of the song that sounded like an opera in the middle, and how did he think of ending it with a child's voice?
Lin Xi answered while watching the performance.
Although he had already finished singing, the recording of the program had not been completed. Next, he still had to shoot some clips, such as the judges 'opinions on some contestants, the thoughts of the contestants before and after they went on stage, and so on. After editing, they would be put into the program.
All the talent shows nowadays basically did this.
This was also a way to promote some outstanding players and increase their popularity.
Therefore, Lin Xi could not escape first and could only wait here.
Finally.
The recording of this episode was completed. Tang Hong received nine stars and successfully advanced. Due to time constraints, Su Zhilan was scheduled to perform tomorrow.
The production team and the four judges also came backstage.
The director smiled and said," All the contestants have worked hard. Today's competition will come to an end. In a while, our colleagues will be recording some more videos. We need some contestants to cooperate with us. I'll have to trouble everyone.”
Everyone cooperated.
The production team looked for Lin Xi first.
He re-recorded some interview clips before and after he went on stage. She had already finished singing and got sixteen stars, but she still had to answer in front of the camera."You're about to go on stage. Are you nervous?”This kind of question.
Lin Xi felt a little speechless, but most variety shows were like this. They would record a lot of video clips and might not be used in the end.
This was a common practice in the industry, and Lin Xi tried his best to cooperate.
When he finished recording and was about to leave, Ling Fang and Ceng Yi called out to him.
After exchanging a few pleasantries, Ceng Yi directly asked,"Lin Xi, are you free this Saturday?”
Lin Xi thought for a moment. I want to work."
"What job?" Ling Fang suddenly perked up. She thought that Lin Xi was composing some kind of music.
"Yes, I'm working part-time at a restaurant.”Lin Xi smiled bitterly.
Ling Fang was instantly shocked and said,"
"Are you kidding me? This is simply a waste of talent. How can you waste your time on this?"
Before she could finish, Ceng Yi reached out and pulled her sleeve. Ling Fang suddenly understood and did not say anything else.
She thought that Lin Xi was still a student, after all. He must have come from a poor family, which was why he could only choose to work part-time.
Ceng Yi said without hesitation," Student Lin Xi, there are still a few more competitions to come. It's better for you to focus on preparing for the competition. Moreover, you still have to compose the song. This cost is not low. How about this? I'll transfer some money to you first. You can use it first."”
Lin Xi shook his head." Thank you, Teacher Zeng. I can handle it myself."”
This was the first time he had met Ceng Yi, and they were not that close yet. He did not want to owe him a favor.
"I do all the arrangements myself. I just need to borrow the recording studio's equipment. It's only 1500 yuan for one time.”
As soon as he finished speaking, Ceng Yi and Zeng Yi looked at Lin Xi in shock."
"Are you saying that the arrangement was done by you alone?”
Lin Xi nodded.
The two of them, who had become popular all over the country, instantly lost their calm. Ever since they debuted, they had become famous for their own arrangement and lyrics. They knew how difficult it was to do so.
Many A-list singers never participated in composing songs or lyrics. They only told their teams or producers what style they wanted.
Then, the team would create and process it, and the cost would be huge. Spending hundreds of thousands to create a good song was a very common thing.
The singers were only responsible for singing.
Lin Xi had actually said that he had composed all the music by himself. It was simply unbelievable.
The two of them thought of a trending phrase on the Internet: Treasure boy!
However, Lin Xi's refusal to accept his kindness gave Ceng Yi a headache.
Such a good seedling should put his mind on music. How could he spend his time and energy on trivial matters like working?
At this time, Ling Fang, who was still quick-witted, had an idea and said,
"I remember now. There will be a Strawberry Music Festival in Chengdu in a few days. The two of us have also been invited as guest singers. I'll talk to the organizers and arrange for you to sing a song.”
"With your strength and current fame, the organizers should agree. This way, you can accumulate some on-site experience and earn some living expenses to maintain your composing and daily expenses during this period of time.”
Ling Fang said with a proud smile, as if she was very satisfied with this good idea.
"Yeah, this is a good idea." Ceng Yi said excitedly.
Lin Xi had an idea. This was possible.
He was indeed short of money now. He earned money through commercial performances and also relied on his own labor. He could earn this money with a clear conscience!
"Thank you, teachers. I'm willing to go.”
Ling Fang's personality was more extroverted. She immediately smiled and said,
"Alright, I'll contact the organizers today. Wait for my notice. If they know that you can sing, I think the organizers will laugh to death.”
Ceng Yi also revealed a relieved smile.
Lin Xi nodded in agreement. He felt a sense of familiarity towards these two straightforward and easy-going singers.
After the recording ended, Lin Xi walked out of the venue and was about to go home when his phone rang.
Lin Xi took out his phone and saw that it was the owner of the music restaurant where he worked.
Although he had saved his number in his phone, his boss had never called him. Besides, he didn't have to go to work today. Why would he look for him?
Lin Xi was a little surprised and quickly picked up the phone.
The boss's anxious voice came from the other end of the phone.
"Lin Xi, something big has happened. Where are you now?”
