Chapter 154 The Competition Begins "Clouds from My Hometown"

After arriving at Xiangjiang River, we rested for one night and then rehearsed the next morning.

In the afternoon, we started recording the singer’s entrance.

The recording tonight is the seventh episode of "Singing", so there will be a replacement singer joining.

As before, the identity of the replacement singer remains confidential.

Then, the starting singer began to guess the identity of the replacement singer.

When this segment is broadcast, it will also trigger speculation among the audience, which can effectively improve the audience's sense of participation.

Because the replacement singer last time was Li Caiwei, and Fang Xing knew about it in advance.

Therefore, this time, Xie Yuwen was the first to ask: "Fang Xing, tell us first, did you produce the song of the replacement singer this time?"

Fang Xing smiled and asked, "Why do you ask that?"

Xie Yuwen replied matter-of-factly: "You and Li Caiwei have caused post-traumatic stress disorder. Another one will come out later, and you will be in charge of the songs. Do you plan to take the first, second, and third place?"

Fang Xing shook his head and smiled: "You can rest assured this time, I don't know who the replacement singer is, and I didn't help him produce the song."

Xie Yuwen looked at the camera and said, "Everyone in the audience has heard it. If the replacement singer later has something to do with Fang Xing, you know, try to blackmail him."

This variety show is full of effects.

Zheng Tao was very satisfied and started to choose the order of appearance in the competition.

This time, Fang Xing's luck was pretty good. He got seventh, Li Caiwei fifth, and Liu Hongsheng fourth.

Xie Yuwen got the order that everyone wanted, playing sixth.

The recording of the appearance sequence is completed, and there will be a one-hour break.

At 7:30 in the evening, the recording of the competition session began.

Zheng Tao took the walkie-talkie and announced loudly: "Everyone is in place, the seventh competition recording of "Singing" has officially begun."

The host He Hao stepped onto the stage with joy and began to speak the opening words:

"Dear singers, guests, live audiences, and viewers in front of the TV, good evening to everyone.

"Welcome to the seventh competition of "Singing". The theme of tonight's competition is 'Hometown'.

"'Hometown' is a word with a special meaning. It is a place that we can never forget in our hearts.

"Like the roots of a tree, a wanderer in a distant place, no matter how far he goes, always hopes to return to his roots when the leaves fall.

"'Hometown' is such a special place. It has witnessed the joys and sorrows of our childhood. It is the place where we were born and raised.

"Tonight, we come to sing the praises of our 'hometown' and tell the stories that happened in our 'hometown'."

After finishing his opening remarks, the audience gave Teacher He warm applause.

He Hao continued: "I believe the audience and friends are already waiting impatiently. The competition is about to begin. First of all, the first singer to appear tonight. Who is he..."

The first person to appear was Zhong Yuanxun, who sang a Chinese song praising his hometown.

His pronunciation was quite clear, and his singing skills were indeed solid, winning warm applause from the audience.

Afterwards, singers appeared one after another.

Liu Hongsheng made his fourth appearance.

When he appeared under the spotlight on the stage, he immediately won applause from the audience.

He Hao had a pre-competition interaction and finally asked: "So, what song will Liu Tianwang sing tonight? Tell the audience loudly."

Liu Hongsheng cleared his throat and replied: "Tonight's song is called "Hometown in the Heart"."

"Okay, let's hand over the stage to Liu Hongsheng and bring us this song "Hometown in the Heart."" After He Hao finished speaking, he turned and walked off the stage.

The scene fell silent.

Liu Hongsheng held the microphone and began to brew his emotions. After a moment, he looked in the direction of the band.

The conductor of the band picked up the baton and pressed it down, and the piano started the prelude.

Liu Hongsheng started singing with a rich voice:

"There is a place in my heart. It is full of camphor trees, and I often yearn for it in my dreams. It is a place that I cannot go back to, but my heart has already been filled..."

Liu Hongsheng's singing is very soulful.

Since the last time, Fang Xing's performance of "Prose Poems Written by My Father" moved the audience to tears.

Liu Hongsheng learned from the experience and began to take a soulful route. When singing "Hometown in the Heart", he sang his longing for his hometown into the song.

After singing, the audience was really moved by the singing. Many people had mist in their eyes, especially the wanderers who were struggling in a foreign country, they were deeply moved.

After the song was sung, the audience responded with warm applause.

Liu Hongsheng was very satisfied with the performance, and the reaction of the audience also made him more confident.

At least, the response from the audience was much more enthusiastic than the previous three singers.

…

The singer takes a break.

Following the instructions of the directing team, the filming director began to ask questions to the singer:

"Fang Xing, what do you think of Liu Tianwang's performance this time?"

Fang Xing thought for a moment and replied: "It's a very good song. I miss my hometown very beautifully."

The director continued to ask: "Then where do you think Liu Tianwang will be in the final ranking in this game?"

Fang Xing thought again: "It's hard to say, maybe... the top three?"

When the director heard this answer, he knew the topic was coming.

Due to the broadcast of this season, the popularity is very high, and it is even expected to surpass the peak ratings of the first season.

Zheng Tao wants to continue to increase the popularity of "Singing" this season.

The best way is to create buzz.

Zheng Tao originally rarely watched men's team drafts.

Originally, his understanding of Fang Xing came from some clips about Fang Xing played by the program team.

When Fang Xing showed his super dominance on "Song".

After Zheng Tao went back, he watched Fang Xing's season of "Tomorrow's Star" again.

He discovered that Fang Xing was a walking talking machine.

Just give him a few questions and Fang Xing can make big news.

Moreover, even if Fang Xing knew that the program team was up to something, he would step in without hesitation and do it forcefully.

The director continued to ask: "So do you think Liu Tianwang still can't win the first place in this competition? When we were in the pre-collection, Liu Tianwang said that he would compete for the championship in this competition."

Fang Xing shrugged and said, "If it were another show, it would be okay for him to win, but tonight it's a bit difficult."

The director continued to ask: "Why? Is the song you sing another ultimate move?"

Fang Xing sighed: "That's too scary, a nuclear bomb-level ultimate move."

The director was so happy that he overfulfilled his task by asking this question: "Is it more powerful than the songs you sang before?"

After careful consideration, Fang Xing said, "Let's put it this way, I'm afraid of singing this song."

The director asked: "So, you are confident that you will win first place again this time, right?"

Fang Xing sighed: "I don't know what the audience will think. I can only say that those who dare not to vote are warriors."

When the director heard this, his eyes lit up.

This sentence was so familiar to her.

Fang Xing said something similar before on "Tomorrow's Star".

The director said excitedly: "The more I talk about it, the more I look forward to it."

…

After Liu Hongsheng finished singing, he bowed to the audience and went to rest.

He Hao came on stage to say the words and began to introduce the next singer:

"Singer No. 5 is coming next. Singer No. 5 has an ethereal and clear voice. Her competition song was produced by another competition singer.

"When it comes to this, everyone must say that singer No. 5 is Li Caiwei.

“But, audience friends, are you so sure?

"On the stage of "Song", can Fang Xing be the only one who can produce songs for other singers? Can't it be another singer?

"I'm telling you, yes, no, at least not tonight.

"Let us welcome singer No. 5 to the stage, please!"
