Entertainment: I have a cultural star from the future

Xiang Ling stood on the stage with a smile on her face.

As the pillar of the Fruit Channel, he finally understood why he was chosen to be the host of this season's competition.

Because he can handle being scolded! Compared with other hosts, his psychological quality is very good.

Likewise, the pressure tolerance is also very good.

He was always able to adjust his mood even when he was accused of being "fawning on foreigners" or "biased".

The station restarted the "Super Singer" competition this time in response to the requirements from above, and the scope and authority of inviting singers were fully liberalized.

The young director came up with a very bold decision: to perform the performance live with the microphone on!

As a result, when they went to invite singers, they all refused as soon as they heard that everyone was singing with their microphones on.

I couldn’t find anyone for a while!

The young director was not in a hurry and directly invited singers from abroad. Who knew that the money he used to hire third-tier singers in China could be used to hire first-tier singers from abroad.

Later, the director became bolder and spent a little more money to invite a top singer.

Everyone at the operating table was horrified by what they saw - this was like pushing themselves to death!

As a result, the top four of the seven contestants were foreigners. The TV station was directly criticized and their director had a gloomy face these days.

Xiang Ling calmed herself down, recited a long string of advertising slogans, and then said to everyone with a happy face, "Live studio audience, live audience, welcome to the Super Singer program. This episode's format is the same as the last one, and we will have two challenger singers."

As soon as he finished speaking, people in the live broadcast room started cursing!

[Another foreign contestant challenging the competition? How much do they look down on domestic singers?]

[If you can't do it, don't do it. Isn't that embarrassing enough?]

[Ahhh! I'm so mad! Why don't they just change it to "European and American Singer Competition"?]

[All European and American singers are fine too. Everyone can watch the top Grammy singers compete against each other without paying. Isn’t that great?]

[Haha, thinking like this comforts myself!]

Chief Director Niu Ren, who had been watching the comments from the audience in the live broadcast room, twitched his lips! He wanted to, but he was afraid that someone would disagree!

The assistant director asked worriedly, "Director, is today's guest going to be okay?"

Niu Ren didn't answer because he didn't know either.

There was a lot of criticism online, saying that he didn't take it seriously, but if the final result was that all Chinese singers were really wiped out, then his future career would also be over.

I hope today’s two groups of challenge singers can bring him good luck!

The seven singers drew their performance order.

The first person to appear was Wenbert. He was first in the last issue and he was in a very relaxed state of mind.

The second is Fan Ya, and the third is Cheng Xin. Cheng Xin felt relieved. Fan Ya, who was ahead of her, was fourth in the previous issue and was considered the weaker of the four European and American players, which made her less stressed.

The fourth to appear was Pacoco, who was third in the previous episode. The fifth was Jianzi. Jianzi had a smile on her face and waved at the camera, looking very calm.

The sixth one is not a singer, but a challenger singer!

Seventh place, Molly, who was second last time,

The eighth was Yang Yue. Yang Yue had a calm expression on her face. She thought that no matter how bad it got, she would just be ranked last again. And according to everyone's ability comparison, this situation was a foregone conclusion, unless one of her hands couldn't sing, which of course was impossible.

The last one is the challenge singer.

Someone has analyzed before that the most amazing thing about overseas singers is their naturally high vocal range, which is a dimensionality reduction attack on Chinese singers.

The four overseas singers in the first two episodes made good use of this advantage.

When the competition started, Vimbert was still charming on the stage. This time he chose a very slow love song. He played the piano and murmured with his magnetic voice, as if telling his lover his true feelings.

Vanya is a country ballad, she plays the guitar and sings intoxicatedly.

Cheng Xin sang one of her famous songs, which won the Golden Melody Award that year for its rich emotions.

This time, Cheng Xin sang with great dedication. Unlike the previous two episodes where she was a little nervous, she relaxed a lot this time. Even the audience in the live broadcast room praised her highly!

Her performance also made the chief director Niu Ren breathe a sigh of relief. Compared with Fan Ya's song, Cheng Xin's was slightly better.

Fan Ya seemed to have seen the result as well, covering her mouth awkwardly in the lounge: "Sister Cheng is really amazing this time!"

Pacoco, who performed fourth, sang a very passionate song in a cabaret style, which caused the audience to cheer.

Jianzi sang another folk song later. This time, he added some minority languages into the lyrics, which made everyone's eyes light up!

After hearing this, the eyes of several foreigners including Wenbert lit up, and they were full of praise for this novel singing style.

"Great music!" Wenbert even looked puzzled: "His performance now is completely different from before. Is this what the Chinese call hiding one's shortcomings?"

The four overseas contestants suddenly looked serious, thinking that they should not underestimate these Chinese singers.

Then came the challenge singers, a rock band called "Yellow Flame".

The intense music started, the lead singer sang at the top of his lungs, and the audience was stunned!

[That's it? Am I in the right place?]

[Singing like a funeral song!]

Yang Yue also had a complicated look on her face. She really had no objection to being ranked last. Her strength was there. She mainly sang sweet songs. Everyone here was a talented singer. If she was eliminated in this kind of competition, it would be a liberation for her. But watching the "Yellow Flame" competition, she was still a little disappointed. She just hoped that the next group of singers would perform better.

The "Yellow Flame" band is actually very famous in the rock circle and has a lot of fans, but compared with the fans of mainstream music in China, their fan base is still smaller, and there are also problems with the song selection this time, so they suffered some losses.

Molly, who performed seventh, sang a virtuoso piece, and her vocals were once again praised by all the singers. However, the excessive display of technique diminished the song's inherent appeal. In other words, the singer sang brilliantly, but the song wasn't particularly enjoyable.

Yang Yue, who came in eighth, sang an adapted love song calmly. Because she was in a calm state of mind, her performance was very stable.

The last group of singers to appear were the last challenge singers. The judges and the audience had already calmed down, and even several singers from China had once again accepted the impending failure.

Many viewers who watched the live broadcast were so angry that they cried, but they didn't want to vent their anger in words.

[Ah, after watching "Yellow Flame", I know the level of the challenge singers.]

[With so many singers responding online, I still had some hope.]

[This is the first time I've ever felt so utterly irritated about watching a show!]

All the lights on the stage dimmed, and the audience saw two figures slowly walking towards the stage entrance.

[Looks like it's still a band?]

[Are these two shadows another combination? They both seem to be men?]

The two figures walked closer and closer until they stood in the center of the stage.
