It's hard to be an idol

Chapter 116 "The Dust in the Fireworks"

"Brother Yanbin, I'm looking for you today!" When choosing the singer-songwriter for the battle, Xu Lai directly approached Hu Yanbin. Among the three people in the upper zone, the one he wanted to challenge was Hu Yanbin.

"OK, there's no problem." Hu Yanbin was also very appreciative of Xu Lai's challenge, and he was also quite interested in Xu Lai.

Right now Zheng Jun, Hu Yanbin and Chen Li are in the upper ranks. Xu Lai is not very interested in Chen Li, but he is more interested in Zheng Jun and Hu Yanbin. Both are seniors, one is rock and other Both played very well, and the other has a variety of styles. Neither of them is the kind of singer-songwriter who sticks to one style. For Xu Lai, the challenge will be stronger. Anyway, he is stable now and will not leave. Well, it's good to be a challenge.

It's best to be able to kill the people in the upper zone, just like he planned before, first play a song to blow up the scene.

As for the choice of Hu Yanbin between Zheng Jun and Hu Yanbin, it is because Xu Lai intends to "defeat magic with magic". He wants to fight Zheng Jun again after his rock song is finished. This can be regarded as between him and Zheng Jun. Make an agreement.

Entering the middle area, Huo Zun and his good sister were already chatting, but after Xu Lai entered, their topic slowly shifted to Xu Lai.

"By the way, Xu Lai, your song today shouldn't be a love song, right? It's a bit eye-catching among so many love songs." Huo Zun began to tease Xu Lai with a smile.

"If the recording of the demo and the rehearsal were not separated, I would have wondered if you had discussed it well... Hey, didn't you really discuss it while I was home?" Xu Lai said.

"How is it possible? But, Xu Lai, have you gone home? Just take advantage of the two days just after the recording of the last episode?"

Xu Lai nodded: "Ah, yes, I went back home. This is my first time going home this year... Originally, it was going to be the Chinese New Year, but I feel like I finally came back to the mainland. I will go back when I have free time. Take a look."

"That's pretty good, now it's homecoming, right?"

"Homecoming... It's still early! On the way back, except for a little girl who was a few years old staring at me, no one paid attention to me, okay?" Xu Lai thought it was funny to be stared at by the little girl before, Thinking of what Lin Yuner said, "It's so pitiful to have a crooked aesthetic at a young age", and couldn't help laughing out loud. "Will girls at any age look at handsome guys now?" The two good sisters interjected.

"No matter how old or young you are, everyone likes "good-looking" things."

While they were chatting, Producer C started talking again.

"Cool the heart, release the thirst."

……

"The first group of competitions is about to start. The singer-songwriter Xu Lai will challenge the singer-songwriter Hu Yanbin. If you want the first singer-songwriter to appear, come on!"

"I'll go first." Hearing Producer C's call, Xu Lai greeted Huo Zun and the others before getting up and preparing to leave the room. "come on!"

"okay!"

When he came to the channel waiting for the performance, Xu Lai ran into Hu Yanbin.

"Today's song is not simple, is it?" Hu Yanbin looked at Xu Lai with a smile, and when he smiled, his eyes seemed to disappear.

"Brother Yanbin, I don't believe your song is simple, okay?"

Xu Lai looked at Hu Yanbin and couldn't help but ask a question.

"Each each other."

"Then I'll go first!" Xu Lai greeted Hu Yanbin, then got up and walked onto the stage.

"come on!"

……

This is the second time that Xu Lai has officially stood on the stage of "Singer and Composer". The public judges and audience in the audience seem to be the same as before. When Xu Lai appeared, he hadn't started to introduce himself. Someone already called his name.

"Hello everyone, I'm Xu Lai, a singer-songwriter, and a new member of the XO group." Xu Lai greeted the audience with a smile, and then said to himself, regardless of the audience's reaction, "No Wrong, I'm still the first to appear today, so I won't say much, let me blow up the scene first, okay?"

"Next, "Dust in Fireworks", I will sing it well, I hope everyone will like it."

After finishing speaking, Xu Lai took the microphone and turned around and sat in front of the piano in the center of the stage. He installed the microphone on the microphone stand on the piano, adjusted the position properly, and the piano began to sound slowly.

"Watch the flying dust fall
no one found it there

how free

But the world loves to be noisy

I can't stand being bored
You shouldn't be alone in a daze"

Xu Lai sang softly, slowly immersing himself in his performance, injecting his own emotions.

"Only I guard the quiet desert

Waiting for the flowers to bloom wuuuu~~~
I'm the only one looking at other people's happiness

I would feel wuuuu~~
Just let me listen to the truth

I don't want to understand wuwuuuu~
Is there anything that should or shouldn’t be done?”

The keynote was low, but after Xu Lai sang "shouldn't", he left the piano with both hands, picked up the microphone and stood up, and the guzheng sounded high-pitched, giving the whole song a sense of infusion. The soul is so ordinary, the audience under the stage and those who watched the singers in the background couldn't help sighing.

"Wow! This Guzheng!"

Especially Hu Yanbin, he was still confident before, but Xu Lai's arrangement seemed a bit unique, which made him less confident.

Xu Lai's performance on the stage continued, and the drum beats joined the song, and the whole song began to slowly reach its climax.

"Only I guard the quiet desert

waiting for the flowers to bloom
I'm the only one looking at other people's happiness

would be emotional

Just let me listen to the truth

unwilling to understand

only me is me
it's wired"

Xu Lai stood on the stage and began to shout, but this was still not the climax.

"I'm still feeling
The wind blows over
why don't you come back

Once the wind is gone and never comes back, is it sad or not?
Getting numb so fast
Shouldn't it
can you slow down"

Everyone off the stage was silent, their eyes were on Xu Lai all the time, the frowning boy on the stage with a haggard expression leaned over slightly, as if he was complaining or mourning something Generally speaking, everyone was infected by him, including the singers and songwriters in the waiting room backstage.

People who can write lyrics and music are always very sensitive to emotions. Xu Lai kept singing, and their expressions gradually became serious, and in the end they became frowning, and Chen Li even started to bite his lip.

Xu Lai's song is about himself, but many people can feel the empathy, in addition to praising Xu Lai's performance is very empathetic.

"Well written..." Hu Yanbin on the other side said quietly, now it's a [-]-[-] scene.

However, after Xu Lai changed the true and false sounds of the crying voice, Hu Yanbin silently changed the 5.5-4.5 split into [-]:[-].

"Laugh openly cry frankly
Why should we let the world arrange our expressions?”

"I'm me, I'm just me"

"It's just the dust ai↑↑↑~~~ scattered by a firework"

This is the first time everyone has heard Xu Lai sing such an extreme high pitch. This kind of singing is something they didn't expect.

In everyone's eyes, Xu Lai is more often the boy who sings softly, not the "little devil" who roars and bombards the audience's ears on the stage.

"Should this person go to "Singer"? Why did he come to "Singer-Composer" to fight with us? How can he use his singing skills!"

Hu Yanbin is still sitting in the waiting passage, and now the odds in his mind have become three to seven. This is still the case when he is playing normally, but Xu Lai's first appearance is such a bombing, which is nothing to Hu Yanbin It is definitely impossible to influence that. It can only be said that he is short of a move. If he appeared first to perform, the odds of winning might be a little higher.

It can only be 0.5 more, no more.

Xu Lai's performance ended with the tune of the song gradually disappearing. When Xu Lai stood on the stage panting and looked at the audience off the stage, the audience cheered everywhere and gradually began to call his name in unison.

"Xu Lai!"

"Xu Lai!"

"Xu Lai!"

……

enduring.

Xu Lai listened quietly to the cheers of the audience. The sweat on his forehead flashed under the light, and a smile gradually appeared on his face.

This is what he was trying to achieve.

Then he made a pause gesture with microphone and hands, smiled at the audience, and bowed.

"thank you all."

　Second more.
