Chapter 36 The Finale
As Pudding was announced, the stage went dark.
Pudding ran to the edge of the stage and gave the stage to the first contestant on stage.
In the center of the stage, the lifting platform slowly rises...
"The city I live in is cold, but your voice on the phone is as warm as spring. I think of the time we broke up last year..."
This song is a popular song in Dragon Kingdom called "Breakup Season".
Before the contestant's face could be seen clearly, the voice came out. This was also a link carefully arranged by the program team, which meant to get the upper hand.
Then, as the singing continued, a beam of light hit the player, and then more and more lights hit the player. The camera zoomed in, and the audience finally saw the player's face.
Apply a little pink and white, and smile beautifully.
Seeing the player's familiar red hair, Luoyang smiled.
"It's very beautiful. Is the first contestant so beautiful?" Ren Changjiang said in surprise.
"Yes, you are very good-looking, and those legs are so white." Wang Yu smiled very obscenely.
"Red hair is also very beautiful and has a lot of personality..." Zhu Changhong said.
"Look at the judges, I don't know what the judges will say..." Ren Changjiang and others whispered while watching the show.
After singing the song, there was a burst of applause from the audience.
"Introduce yourself." Pudding walked onto the stage and said to the girl with a smile.
"Hello everyone, my name is Su Yiyi." The girl smiled and said to the judges and audience.
"So her name is Su Yiyi. She has a good name. Luoyang, what do you think of this girl?" Ren Changjiang pushed Luoyang, who had been silent.
Luoyang smiled and said: "It's very beautiful, and the song is also good."
Of course he thought it was good, Su Yiyi could be considered his friend after all.
But seeing the three beasts in the dormitory being so naughty, Luoyang really didn't dare to tell them that he knew Su Yiyi.
…
"You have a good grasp of popular singing, and your appearance is also very suitable for being a singer. I give you 20 points." At the judges' table, Yi Bai gave his own evaluation.
"I don't agree with Xiaobai's point of view. Contestant Su Yiyi, your singing is a bit too rigid. Being from an academy is both a good thing and a bad thing. Your singing is not spiritual enough, so I can only give you fifteen points." Ma Haoran He said with a serious face.
No one thought he was targeting Yi Bai. This is the tradition of the next queen. It is easy for the judges to get angry among themselves, because everyone has different preferences, so naturally the scores will be different.
"Thank you, teacher, I will continue to work hard." Su Yiyi said politely.
"Evaluating a person can't just look at the present, but also based on the potential shown by the player, right? Not to mention that our little beauty has done very well." The third judge Luo Bingqing said with a smile: "Yiyi, I will You score twenty-two, and I’ll give you a little suggestion. Next time you sing, try to forget the routines taught by the teachers in the academy.”
"Thank you, teacher, for your guidance." Su Yiyi said quickly. The score given by this person was the highest so far.
It's the fourth judge's turn.
Zhang Zonghuan nodded and said: "You have both advantages and disadvantages, and they are both obvious. Your advantage is your voice, which is great and very suitable for pop music, but your disadvantage is your singing voice. What Teacher Ma Haoran said makes sense. Your singing is indeed too academic. It’s not that academic is bad, it’s just that you went too far. I hope you can correct it. I’ll give it 18 points.”
"Thank you..." Su Yiyi walked off the stage amidst the applause of the audience.
Luoyang looked at Wang Yu and the others with some confusion, and asked, "What does this score mean?"
"You don't understand?" Wang Yu asked strangely.
Luoyang shook his head. This was his first time watching this show, so of course he didn't understand it.
"Each judge has 25 points in their hands, and they each score the contestants. These scores will be added together as the score the contestant received in this round."
"The full score is one hundred points, and each of the four judges has twenty-five points... When each of the one hundred contestants has finished scoring, a ranking will be conducted, and the top fifty contestants will advance and can continue the competition. Those players in the bottom fifty can only be eliminated.”
After Wang Yu finished speaking, he added: "This rule applies to the top 100 competitions at the beginning of every edition of "Next Stop Queen"."
"Okay..." Luoyang nodded.
This rule is new, but it is relatively fair. It is a bit like an exam, with a one-hundred-point system. After singing, half of the contestants will be eliminated based on their scores.
There are also disadvantages, and that is... this stage does not tolerate mistakes. Once you make some mistakes, you may get a low score and eventually be eliminated.
Anyway, if you follow this rule, when all one hundred people finish singing, it will be basically clear who has advanced and who has been eliminated.
"Su Yiyi scored a total of 75 points. According to previous years' promotion standards, there is a great chance of promotion!" Zhu Changhong said happily after calculating the scores. Obviously he still likes Su Yiyi as a player.
The game continues, and the next players are all pretty good.
But from these players, I always feel that there is something missing...the audience can't tell exactly what is missing.
Until...the ninth contestant appears tonight.
"You said you didn't like the sun, so I swallowed the sun. You said you didn't like the moonlight, so I ate the moon... You are my light in the cold night, the moonlight is ten thousand feet gentle, and the thoughts on the cliff are echoing, Echoing in the valley!"
With the penetrating singing, the ninth contestant appeared!
The four judges all looked at the stage in surprise, and the audience in the audience also applauded desperately - there was no other reason, the singing was too powerful, and it was born with the effect of awakening the deaf!
And this song was also a song by the judge Zhang Zonghuan, "Piercing the Stars and the Moon".
This song has a very high pitch, and few people dare to challenge it, but this contestant challenged it... and, judging from the reactions of the audience and the judges, there is no doubt that the challenge was successful!
The beam hit the contestant's face, and everyone realized that the girl who sang such an explosive voice was actually a long-haired woman, a black vest, light blue hot pants, a perfect S-shaped figure, and a queen temperament.
After the song ended, the host Pudding immediately said: "Introduce yourself."
"Hello everyone, hello to the four judges, my name is Su San." This woman has a strong aura, and she speaks with a natural queen style.
The audience finally realized what the previous contestants lacked.
What they lacked was Su San's aura, a temperament that I am the focus, I am the star of tomorrow!
"Su San, hello, great singing voice, I won't comment, I'll give you 23 points!" Yi Bai said first.
"Xiao Bai doesn't comment, then I won't comment either, 22 points!" Ma Haoran rarely smiled.
"I know why you two just give points without commenting, haha, because this is Teacher Zhang Zonghuan's song! So, let Teacher Zhang Zonghuan comment. Su San made some changes to the song, I like it very much, 24 points." Luo Bingqing's scores have always been high, and for this song, she gave an unprecedented 24 points.
"Don't be like this, no matter what song the contestant sings, or whose song he sings, necessary comments are still necessary." After Zhang Zonghuan finished speaking, Yi Bai and the others all nodded and smiled.
Zhang Zonghuan looked at Su San and affirmed: "The song is adapted very well, but... I want to criticize you that your key is too high, which changes the mood of the song. I suggest you try lowering the key and give you 21 points."
Although he criticized, Zhang Zonghuan finally gave his highest score tonight.
"Thank you teachers!" Su San bowed.
So far, the only contestant with a high score of 90 points tonight was born!
When the tenth contestant finished singing, the next stop of the Queen of the Next Station of today's episode also ended.
Unfortunately, except for Su Yiyi, Luoyang didn't know the remaining nine contestants, and Liu Qin didn't appear, but Luoyang still watched with relish, because these ten contestants sang well.
Especially Su San, who appeared later, sang really well, very explosive, and his eyes were also very aggressive, which was impressive.
After the show, several people were still discussing the contestants tonight.
"The quality of this session is very good!"
"Su San seems to be a dark horse, singing too wild! It shocked people all at once!"
"Of course, he actually got a high score of 90 points! This score is definitely a rising star!"
Luoyang did not participate in the discussion.
He actually saw it very clearly, this should be a deliberate arrangement by the program group.
Just like the previous life of The Voice, there will be a finale contestant in each episode, and this contestant named Su San should be the finale contestant of the first episode...
—————
In the evening, Luoyang received a call from Liu Qin.
"That contestant named Su San is very strong." Luoyang said with a smile.
"Yes, we met her during rehearsal, and her high notes are really amazing."
"Yiyi performed well too." Luoyang praised.
"Thank you for the compliment, handsome brother Luo!" The voice on the other end of the phone suddenly became Su Yiyi, and it was obvious that Liu Qin's phone was in Su Yiyi's hands.
"Congratulations."
"What are you congratulating? Seventy-five points is not high, and it's on the edge of promotion and elimination." Su Yiyi said, but her voice was not depressed.
Luoyang admired her mentality: "If nothing unexpected happens, your hope of promotion is still very high."
"Thank you for your blessing, I'll give the phone to Sister Qin first, you two are fine, huh?~" Su Yiyi said with a sly smile.
Well... these girls seem to think that he and Liu Qin have an affair. Luoyang is really sad and helpless about this.
"Hey, idiot, what are you thinking about." Liu Qin's voice sounded again.
"I'm wondering which episode you will appear in." Liu Qin never told Luoyang which episode she will appear in.
"Just watch the live broadcast tomorrow night."
"Ah, you are in the second episode?" Luoyang was a little surprised.
"To be precise, I am the first in the second episode, and I have the same problem as Yiyi." Liu Qin said with a wry smile.
Luoyang also knew what she was worried about. As the first contestant to appear in the competition, the pressure will inevitably be greater.
"It seems that you are not the finale contestant in the second episode, so there is no need to feel pressure. Only the finale contestants of the main hit will feel pressure." Luoyang teased.
The main hits of each episode will try to appear at the end, otherwise there will always be a feeling of anticlimactic. Now Liu Qin is arranged to be the first to appear in the second episode, and it is estimated that she is already isolated from the finale.
"Let's wait and see." After Luoyang said this, Liu Qin's nervousness dissipated a lot.
