The lights in Las Vegas on Friday night are bright and lively!The stage was set up early in front of the McCarty Hotel, and audiences pouring in from all over the United States directly blocked the auditorium below the stage. The huge lineup of tens of thousands of people gave people the feeling that it was no less than that of top stars. concert.

But this time, it can't be compared with the top stars. It's just the finals of this year's "America's Got Talent", and the ones who will be performing on stage are just a group of fledgling "ordinary" contestants.

Of course, it is not completely without starlight. The host who walked out "bang bang bang" amidst the cheers like a tsunami of mountains and tsunami, and then turned around to show off his dance moves is a famous movie star, no, it should be Say superstar, Stan Webb!

Stan Weber is a superstar in action movies and one of the representatives of American tough guys.It is worth mentioning that Stan Weber was still a professional wrestler before he acted in the movie, and he fought on the stage of the World Wrestling Federation for four years!
Therefore, under the camera, he is as tall as a mountain. Although he looks decent in a suit and leather shoes, it is also like a burly giant bear stuffed into the suit and leather shoes, with a face full of flesh, thick arms, and walking. Strong chest muscles that tremble when you stand up.

Fortunately, Stan Weber is not scary, not to mention how familiar his face is to the audience, his somewhat enchanting dancing posture makes people look very good, generous and enthusiastic interaction, bright and happy smile ( Big White Teeth), also quickly ignited the enthusiasm of the audience!
"United States, are you ready to choose our champion?"

As soon as Stan Weber came up, he yelled and pushed the atmosphere that had just started to the climax. The audience screamed and applauded for more than half a minute!
"Yes, today our eleven contestants will have a fierce head-to-head confrontation, and the best one will win the biggest prize on the reality show stage! This is why they have practiced desperately time and time again for so many years, they Bleeding from wounds, they are sweating profusely!
But who can deliver a performance worth millions of dollars?Who is eligible for a one-man show in Las Vegas?Who will be the brightest star in the spotlight?Tonight, you will witness it with your own eyes! "

Stan Webb's host didn't look lame because he crossed the border. On the contrary, he spoke very well, whether it was the lines or the intonation - maybe this is also a kind of talent of black people - it is really audible Very comfortable.

It doesn't have to be the serious hosting style in China, but it must be an opening statement that fits the atmosphere of the scene very well.

Because it is too direct, too realistic!
That's right!

Who came here not for the reward of 100 million gold?Who doesn't come here to be famous?
Domestic variety shows like fan love, like to act indifferent, and like to show friendship first and competition second, but the contestants and audience in the United States are very straightforward. They just want to get money and become big stars. The audience is more realistic. Who Vote for whoever performs well!

What else?

Go straight to it!

After the celebrity judges appeared and took their seats, the eleven contestants began their performances in the finals respectively!
Yang Qian has no plans to appear tonight, so he can also watch the performance below the stage.

However, he was not sitting in the auditorium.The auditorium was already full, and he decided to come to watch it on the spur of the moment. How could he be able to arrange a seat for him?However, Jimmy Cagan was the producer after all, so he helped Yang Qian find a place near the base of the crane camera, where the production team stayed, set up a small bench and sat on it.

"Yang, did you watch our show before?"

Jimmy Cagan was also nearby, and before the performance was about to start, he suddenly asked Yang Qian.

"No, it's just that the manager will show me the clips of Ouyang Xiaoqing's performance, and I don't have time to watch the others."

Yang Qian originally wanted to give a simple answer, but suddenly remembered that Jimmy Cagan is a member of the program crew and one of the producers. He has a special status. It hurts to say it so bluntly.

So, he further explained:
"Before I was preparing for the Spring Festival Gala, the biggest festival in our country. It was like the opening performance of your Super Bowl. Of course, there will be many more programs and more people participating. But because almost all people in the country will watch it, So it’s so important that there’s no time to watch America’s Got Talent.”

Although Yang Qian explained that the singers and actors who can be on the Spring Festival Gala far exceed the opening performance of the Super Bowl, Jimmy Cagan, who doesn't know much about China, was still invisibly pretended by him.

Super Bowl?
Can all perform at the level of the Super Bowl?
So this musician sitting next to me is the top star in their country?

This is not to be misunderstood by Jimmy Cagan, Yang Qian is above the first line in China now!

"It doesn't matter. It doesn't matter if you haven't seen it. Now you can pay attention to the dancer above. She is the favorite to win the championship and one of Ouyang's biggest competitors!"

After Jimmy Cagan was shocked for a few seconds, he shook his head and told Yang Qian about the not-so-young female dancer on the stage.

This is also the reason why he wanted to chat with Yang Qian about the show just now.

Who wants to hear what you say about the Super Bowl?
"Biggest competitor?"

Yang Qian repeated Jimmy Cagan's words silently in his heart, and looked towards the stage with a little surprise in his eyes.

Although their position is a little bit off, they are not far from the stage, so even though there is no shot of the female dancer on the big screen, Yang Qian can still get a rough idea.

It was a female dancer who should be in her 40s and [-]s, and her face was not beautiful—or not the delicate beauty that Chinese people prefer.She is somewhat rough, with disheveled hair and sparse clothes, just a tube top and a black gauze skirt. This kind of dress looks very primitive!
From the perspective of figure, she does not belong to the increasingly strict aesthetics especially in the Internet age!Not only does she not have a wasp waist and thin legs, she has relatively thick limbs, a proportionate waist, and a strong and plump chest, which is very similar to the stereotyped image of a middle-aged woman in people's impressions.

Can such a dancer become the favorite to win the championship?
After Yang Qian thought about it, he immediately felt ashamed of his rigid thinking.

There must be something special about her!
Yang Qian cast his eyes on the two standing steel pipes on the stage, guessing in his heart.

When the performers on the stage were making final preparations, the live signal on the TV gave a VCR picture of the dancers.In addition to some highlights from the performer's previous competitions, there is also a snippet of her own account of accepting another talk show catalog with the company.

Ouyang Xiaoqing also filmed it, and it was filmed on the second day after Yang Qian came over. At that time, she and Yali Ferre were rehearsing, but she was called over by the program crew. It took a long time for makeup and filming. ——This day will be wasted!

Yang Qian complained about this. He felt that the competition was about to start, and there wasn't enough time for rehearsal, so he had to allocate time to this kind of VCR recording.
Of course, Yang Qian will not complain to Jimmy Cagan. He has participated in "The Voice in Chinese" and knows that variety shows have to be like this. The competition will never be just a competition, and there are many other things that need to be involved.

There is no way, Ouyang Xiaoqing is not here, so Yang Qian can only go up to rehearse with Yali Ferre. The two of them play and sing together, and they have a lot of fun.

The vcr came back, and in a song that was a bit like a musical, the female dancer on stage began to dance around her two poles.

If it was just pole dancing, then such a performance would definitely not make it to the finals.

But Yang Qian saw the picture on the big screen behind her, a huge tree, a black figure dancing together, and wrestling and struggling movements that coordinated almost seamlessly.

The content presented by the lyrics and performance should be the failures and setbacks she encountered while practicing pole dancing. Her strong limbs and powerful movements can give people a very strong emotional impact.

But that's not all, she even made gestures, and the picture on the big screen also cooperated, as if she and that black shadow had drawn a cage beside her!

"It's such a fun!"

Yang Qian's eyes widened in surprise.

Dance to the screen?Give a richer storyline?

Whether this is considered an innovative performance, Yang Qian doesn't know dance, so he dare not make random comments, but he watched it with gusto, and found it more and more interesting!
But that's just the beginning!
When the rhythm of the music slowly jumps from soothing chanting to passionate rock, the scene also switches to a dark mountain range. The female dancer suddenly jumps, her hair is flying, her skirt is flung up, and her fists are like Thor's hammer smashed to the ground, accompanied by the explosion of the music, and the violent shaking of the picture, giving people a visual impact that she had hammered the entire stage open!

The audience at the scene waved their arms and shouted excitedly. Yang Qian in the crowd was not that excited, but he was also dumbfounded!

Can this pole dance be played like this?
It should be said that it is really fun to play like this!

Dance with video, it seems that the virtual refracts into reality, true and false, false and true, like a game, even if you know it is illusory, you will willingly invest in it and enjoy this illusory sense of reality !
"Can I have this part of my concert? With the music, it should be wonderful!"

Watching such a wonderful dance performance, Yang Qian even forgot that Ouyang Xiaoqing will appear in the competition later, and he forgot that this is a live variety show. He is still thinking about this mode, thinking that it can be used in singing It can also bring fans a more exciting viewing experience on the stage of the club!
Of course, such a performance has very high requirements for dancers and choreographers!
Ordinary dancers don't have such expressive power. Look at their arms and legs, how powerful they are!Stepping on a landslide and rock crack, it is convincing to look at!
Although Ouyang Xiaoqing is also learning to dance, but her thin arms and legs are not good at first glance.

(Ouyang Xiaoqing sneezed in the background: ???)
It's not that it's impossible at all, but Ouyang Xiaoqing is not suitable for such a violent dance, and Yang Qian thinks that she is very talented in music, but she may not be so outstanding in dancing, and may have to practice hard for another ten years before she can Compared to this high-strung female dancer
"Catherine is really an elf on a steel pipe! She was an elf of the forest before, but today she is an elf of smoke and fire!"

Jimmy Cagan was fascinated by seeing Yang Qian, and praised him with a smile.

Although he is in charge of Ouyang Xiaoqing and hopes that Ouyang Xiaoqing can win, Jimmy Cagan is not a person with a dark heart. He can't control himself from praising a beautiful performance.

"Indeed, eh, is she the Catherine that Yari mentioned?"

Yang Qian remembered that on the first day when Ari Ferre came, he had heard Jimmy Cagan communicate with him on the show, and Ari Ferre had mentioned the name "Catherine".

"Yes, that's her! You should watch her previous show, it's more fantastic than magic!"

Jimmy Cagan praised heartily.

Yang Qian was really interested, and when he heard what Jimmy Cagan said about elves, elves, a song couldn't help but pop up in his mind!

"Or, can we have a cooperation with this lady?"

Yang Qian pondered in his heart.

If Ouyang Xiaoqing heard his heart at this moment, she would definitely roll her eyes at him resentfully: Hey!Master, your apprentice is competing!
Catherine's opening game definitely blew up the audience, not to mention that there is no advantage in being the first to play, watching the audience standing up and applauding, watching Stan Weber's exaggerated praise after taking the stage, and watching the judges' almost gaffe-like reactions, absolutely Undoubtedly, this performance directly pushed tonight's show to the peak of ratings!
"omg! It's amazing!"

"It was excellent, it was professional, it was dancing with real soul!"

"This is the most explosive finals performance ever on our show, yes, ever!"

"Catherine, I think you just set a very high standard for them. This standard is vertical, a pole (referring to the steel pipe), and you are the one they will do their best to beat tonight!"

The judges were not stingy with their compliments. Ames McMillan even said that Catherine was defending the ring. If others could not beat her, then she would be the champion!

Although the reality shows and the star judges' words were a bit watery, and there were some parts that were deliberately exaggerated to exaggerate the fierceness of the competition, but Yang Qian felt that what they said was indeed reasonable.

A contestant like this needs to be innovative, innovative, story-telling, contagious, and even has pole dancing skills that few people can achieve. She is indeed a big favorite to win the championship!

Ouyang Xiaoqing has a song written by Yang Qian for her, and has a unique voice talent, but on such a stage, she really may not be able to win!
You know, this is their home stadium, and Catherine is a serious American!
Yang Qian also felt that Ouyang Xiaoqing might not necessarily win, even if it was based on strength.Yang Qian himself likes to watch Catherine's dance!
