Chapter 3 The first performance of "That Girl"

At the beginning, Fang Xing didn't have much interest in variety show auditions. After leaving the show, he could concentrate on making music, so he didn't care whether he would be eliminated or not.

However, I have changed my mind now.

I may not compete, but no one can eliminate me.

How can a devil-level singer lose in this kind of fish pond variety show?

However, judging from the current ranking in the bottom ten of the popularity list, after tonight's performance, he will definitely be eliminated.

As for relying on the performance stage to make a comeback, that is simply overthinking.

The performance track "That Girl" was only given two lines, which was not enough to fill one's teeth.

Fortunately, there is a PK session after the performance.

Each team has a PK quota and can sing a song solo.

One song is enough time.

However, there is no band teacher to cooperate with the PK songs because the band does not have time to rehearse with every F class student.

So you need to prepare an accompaniment first.

Fang Xing can arrange music, and all he needs is a computer with a music workstation installed.

It would be better if there was another MIDI keyboard.

Really, it’s not impossible to arrange music with the mouse.

Fang Xing returned to the training camp, and when he was in the corridor, he heard the sound of the pads.

It sounds like a DJ playing music, and using a lot of unusual sounds.

Fang Xing walked to the training room where the sound came from and took a look inside.

Then I saw a group of students rehearsing in this training room.

Among them, the person playing with the pads was a returned student with dreadlocks.

Fang Xing remembered that his name was Hashim. He came back from Australia, his Chinese pronunciation was not very standard, he was good at English rap, and he could play multiple musical instruments.

Obviously, this Hashim is a musician and brought a full set of MIDI equipment to the show.

MIDI keyboard, guitar, bass, electronic drums, pads, everything.

The equipment is luxurious.

Fang Xing needs such a set of equipment now to arrange music for PK tracks.

So, I walked in and asked politely while he was tapping the pads: "Hello, can I borrow your MIDI equipment? I'll make up an accompaniment, it'll be quick."

Hashim glanced at the words Class F on Fang Xing's T-shirt, then raised his head and glanced at the position of the camera.

Then he said in broken Chinese: "My MIDI equipment is all customized. It is not convenient for others to use. I'm sorry, brother."

Customized MIDI equipment can indeed be very expensive, or even unlimited.

"Excuse me, I'm going to ask someone else."

Fang Xing smiled politely, then turned and left.

Before leaving the training room, a trainee from Hashim's team came over and asked, "What did this guy from Class F just say? Did he want to spy on our intelligence?"

Since there were 14 teams competing for the first performance, they often asked each other about the rehearsal status.

The program team will even film the spying content and cut it into the feature film.

Hashem shook his head and joked: "No, he wants to borrow my MIDI equipment to compose music. This is my weapon in battle. My mother dare not touch it. Will I lend it to him?"

"The accompaniment of the PK song? Aren't the promotion quotas for the PK session basically determined?"

Hashem shrugged and said with a look of disdain: "Maybe he doesn't know yet, but tonight's PK session is specially arranged for me to show off my musical instrument."

Although Hashem is also wearing a Class F T-shirt, it is different from the average Class F students.

During the initial stage evaluation, he took the initiative to challenge the students in Class A to change positions, but failed to change positions and entered Class F.

Moreover, this is a script arranged by the program team.

If in this show, the 11 people who formed the group were the 11 people who entered Class A at the beginning, then the show would be boring.

Therefore, in order to make the program more interesting and topical.

The program team will arrange one or two students to start a counterattack from Class F and finally make their debut as a group.

Only in this way can the show be interesting.

And this Hashim took the counterattack script of Class F.

In other words, the promotion quota for tonight's PK session has actually been determined, and the others are just running with them.

The voices of the two people talking were not low. Fang Xing heard them clearly, but he was not angry. He shook his lips and walked out of the training room.

After being in the entertainment industry for so many years, what kind of monsters and monsters have you not seen?

Let's talk about strength on the PK stage in the evening. Whoever loses will be embarrassed.

…

While in the corridor, Fang Xing met the previous champion Shen Xiyin.

Shen Xiyin has part of the grassland ancestry, has a tall and well-proportioned figure, wears a gothic-style black dress, and her deep eyes are like gems in the night sky.

She was the winner of the last "Rising Star", and this time she was arranged by the program team to be a mentor.

She just heard Fang Xing borrowing an instrument, so she said hello: "Do you want to arrange the music yourself? Do you want me to find someone to help?"

In fact, there are only a few hours left before the performance, and the program team is very busy.

No one has time to record accompaniment for a student from Class F.

As soon as Shen Xiyin said that he wanted to help, the director came over and said, "Xiyin, it's time to rehearse. The tutoring process that will be discussed later needs to be followed first."

Fang Xing was not familiar with her, and seeing that she was very busy, he thanked her: "Thank you, no need. I can handle it myself."

It is impossible to do it. Without a music workstation, it is impossible to arrange it.

Fang Xing simply stopped doing it and returned to the training room to continue rehearsing, and then went straight to the performance.

…

The first performance started with fourteen teams and fourteen songs.

The leader of Fang Xing's group is Wu Junchen, who is currently the most popular, so he made his final appearance, singing "That Girl".

This song was carefully prepared by the program team from the arrangement to the stage design. The purpose is very clear, which is to blow up the scene and attract female fans.

However, appearing in the finale is not necessarily a good thing.

Because before "That Girl", there were already thirteen stages.

After the thirteen songs were sung, the four instructors at the instructor's table and the music critics at the scene were all a little tired.

Especially after experiencing several mediocre stages, I felt even less interested.

The stage lights dimmed, and seven people came on the stage and took their opening poses.

The prelude of "That Girl" sounded, and the brisk notes jumped out like marbles, about to enter the first line of the main song.

Fang Xing is responsible for the first line of the main song.

However, singing the first line is not a privilege.

If the song is not sung well, it will be used as a sacrifice to heaven.

Because if the first one sings more generally, there will be a strong contrast as soon as the second one opens his mouth, forming a kind of progression in singing skills.

As an ordinary F class student, Fang Xing is not willing to follow the program team's preset script, so of course he is used as a foil for the C position.

However, the other party woke up and said that it didn't matter which line he sang.

In a song, every line is important.

As long as you have enough ability, any sentence can crush all sentient beings.

Fang Xing has always been serious about singing. If he has to sing by himself, he must do it to the best of his ability.

The twenty-second prelude ends.

Fang Xing stepped into the spotlight from the darkness and sang the first line of the main song:

"There is such a girl, who writes in her summer diary. There is such a kind of memory, which is engraved in the past of her youth..."

As soon as he opens his mouth, the first lyrics that resonate in the chest directly pull the listener into the story and artistic conception of the song.

"Huh……"

The four instructors at the instructor's table raised their eyebrows at the same time, as if they had discovered a new world.

Especially Chen Chaonan, who has the highest musical literacy, showed a rare smile.

Fang Xing's line is the first line of the main song, and the sound is not high. In the ears of ordinary listeners, they only think it sounds good, and they don't think this line is very awesome.
