It would be a little awkward if the numbers were at the back.
There were advantages and disadvantages.
The judges were relatively tired, and the scores would gradually drop, but they would also be more stringent.
However, a person who performed in this position would easily give the audience and the judges a stronger impression!!
From another perspective, the better the quality of the song, the easier it was to be recognized when it appeared at the end! But correspondingly, the more agitated the music was, the more likely it was to make the public feel more tired! Music that was too lyrical could give the public a break, but it would still easily make the singer sleepy and awkward.
The rules for the first competition were also announced.
"A performance! 56 to 28! Half of them were eliminated at the start! Seven people from each group will advance!"
Li Wenyin frowned slightly.
At seven o'clock that night, the live broadcast officially began.
The first episode of the program was split into four days, with four groups in each day.
Li Wenyin frowned slightly when she found out that she was going to fight in second place on the fourth day.
This was even worse news.
After three days of competition, the judges 'tastes would become extremely tricky.
Moreover, if the contestants who were ranked very high sang a ballad, their impression points would be easily deducted. In this kind of competition that was more inclined to performance, the first two acts would definitely ignite the enthusiasm of the audience.
...
Li Wenyin sat in the contestant area and watched.
The entire venue was very large. The contestant area, the sponsorship area, the judges area, the media area, and the audience area were arranged layer by layer.
At least a thousand people!
The five judges were sitting at the front.
The contestant area was located in a corner, right next to the audience area and the media area.
Li Wenyin looked around curiously.
Looking at the document in his hand, he was secretly shocked.
The five judges were all heavyweights in the music industry.
Professor Chen Guotao of the Central Conservatory of Music, the long-established Chinese Heavenly King Zhang Wenyou, the Central TV music producer Wang Jingde, the Vice President of the Asian Music Association Du Ying, and the world-famous Asian Heavenly Queen Hua Qi Qian Xue!
Li Wenyin, who was deep in thought, suddenly noticed a contestant sitting beside her.
The contestant had a crew cut and was about 25 or 26 years old.
He had a well-defined face and a strong body, but he seemed to be only 1.7 meters tall. His skin was dark and he wore a contrasting white vest. He looked more like a worker at a construction site.
The crew cut man chuckled and sized up Li Wenyin curiously.
"Hello, let me introduce myself. My name is Wang Yan, and I'm a freelance musician.”
Li Wenyin was startled for a moment before she nodded and smiled.
"Hello, my name is Li Wenyin. I'm a signed artist from Xing Hai Entertainment.”
Wang Yan laughed heartily and patted Li Wenyin's shoulder.
"I've heard of you long ago! Brother Death! Nice to meet you!"
Brother Death?
Li Wenyin's eyes twitched.
"How happy?"
“......”
Bro Flattop was stunned.
"I'm so happy!"
“......”
She recalled Bro Flattop's name.
Wang Yan, Wang Yan?
Hmm?
Wasn't it just someone in the same group as him?!
Li Wenyin glanced at the name list and then raised her head again. She carefully sized up Flattop Bro Wang Yan.
"We are a group! A competitor."
"Hey! That's fine!"
"Seven out of fourteen people have advanced. I think the two of us can advance no matter what, right?" Wang Yan said with a smile. Hahahahaha!"
......
Li Wenyin rolled her eyes.
Wang Yan said.
"I've heard your songs before! I really like your "Seven Mile Fragrance"!”
"How much do you like?"
Li Wenyin felt a little helpless. Ever since this guy sat down, his mouth had never stopped talking.
“......”
Wang Yan was stunned for a moment and scratched his head.
"Oh, I really like it."
“......”
Li Wenyin decisively changed the topic.
"The show is about to start. Let's watch first!”
A short video clip was played on the stage.
The first contestant quickly went on stage.
This contestant was obviously a little young, or perhaps he wasn't good at explosive music. He performed a lyrical love song. Although his performance was not bad, his composition was a little immature.
Sure enough, after the judges gave a fair evaluation, the scores they gave were a little low.
After this contestant left the stage dejectedly, the second contestant performed an explosive heavy metal rock song. The ear-piercing high notes and heart-shaking low notes ignited the atmosphere of the entire venue!
As expected, with the praise of the judges, the second place's score was much higher!
"Eh? Wang Yan, what is your rank?"
Wang Yan was stunned and said without hesitation,"I'm in eighth place!"
Li Wenyin nodded.
"The eighth place is fine. If it's the top two, they still have to sing some songs that can liven up the atmosphere.”
Wang Yan nodded in agreement.
"It's like this. I'm ranked eighth. I'm good at rock and roll.”
The eighth place was just slightly behind the middle and was in charge of pushing the show to its climax. Rock and roll was a very suitable style.
"Eh? Li Wenyin, what style are you good at? I heard the song you wrote. It seems to have many styles!”
Wang Yan asked curiously.
"Me?"
Li Wenyin pondered for a moment and answered seriously.
"I'm good at pop music."
“......”
This was equivalent to not saying anything.
It was pop music.
In fact, pop music did not have a clear definition. It contained many styles and could add many elements.
Blues, rock, disco, funk, etc.
It was a symbol of pop music to be more commercial than artistic.
However, some amazing composer would use this foundation to greatly extend the musicality, turning it into a work of art and building up the reputation of the artist.
All kinds of people.
In pop music, the lower limit was low, but the upper limit was high.
Slowly, the performance time passed.
Li Wenyin had also figured out the preferences of the judges.
The reason why he was so determined to sing 'Ninja' in front of the company's higher-ups was actually to test the company's aesthetic standards and see the big picture from the small.
Ever since he came to this world, even though he had been constantly absorbing information about music, it was still difficult for him to listen to all the songs. In other words, the music industry that he had seen was probably only the tip of the iceberg.
Even though he had a general understanding of the music industry, it was still a huge industry. It was not that popular music could represent the standard of the music industry.
That only represented the aesthetic standards of a portion of people!
And as expected, he was scolded.
The five judges in front of him were obviously more knowledgeable and far-sighted in music.
Especially the pop queen, Hazy Chiyuki, who was very tolerant of all styles.
Professor Chen Guotao seemed to have a preference for the classics.
Zhang Wenyou liked lyrics very much.
Wang Jingde and Du Ying were more focused on innovation!
The previous contestant had integrated folk singing into pop music, which made the two of them very appreciative.
After the performance, the judges 'scores and the live audience's votes were also out.
What followed was the online voting!
There was only one use for online voting.
Resurrection!
That's right! In this preliminary round, each group had a resurrection spot. In each round, a contestant would be revived to enter the next round.
The premiere ended very quickly.
After exchanging contact information with Wang Yan, Li Wenyin returned to the contestant's residence to prepare her things.
Although the accompaniment and lyrics for the first round of performances had been submitted, it was better to be prepared.
This competition was definitely not for a one-round swim!
