I'm afraid I'm not interested in love

Chapter 449: The Eyes of Ecstasy
After the next few contestants came on stage one by one, the audience suddenly had no objection to the program team's decision to put Chen Jinzhi last.

Because the quality of this performance was so high, it felt like it was the finals.

Each contestant drew out his or her final trump card and showed his or her greatest sincerity.

"Competition" and "elimination" seemed to be temporarily forgotten, and everyone returned to the essence of singing.

Singing your favorite song well and expressing your desire to stay on this stage are the whole meaning of these five minutes.

Some veteran singers sang their first songs after entering the entertainment industry, bringing people back to the era of cassette records;
Some people also chose to sing for their deceased relatives. Although there were some flaws in the pitch, the power to move people was even greater.

Young singer Justin stopped being obsessed with his trendy style and sat down quietly to play and sing an original song;
This is a song he wrote when he first entered college, only this time he did not emphasize the resounding "Berkeley" prefix.

The audience listened attentively because of the singers' sincerity and because it was a real audio-visual feast.

"To be honest, this is really the most successful episode of the show."

Watching the sixth singer take his bow, Xiao Zheng couldn't help but sigh.

"why?"

Su Chengyi asked.

It's easy to understand his question as asking why the show is successful, but Xiao Zheng knows him very well and guessed that he is asking why the contestants suddenly changed their mindsets.

“I don’t know. Maybe because this episode is live, it’s easy to make mistakes if you show off your skills, so they all went with the emotional flow?
But the songs they chose tonight were not easy.

That is, you feel that you might be eliminated? So you put the competition system aside and return to your original intention? "

Xiao Zheng rubbed his chin and fell into deep thought.

At first he thought that tonight would be another Pavarotti vs. Vitas performance, but he didn't expect that everyone would sing so heartfeltly.

It was a bit surprising, but I really enjoyed listening to it.

Top-notch sound equipment and having so many top singers gathered together to perform in turn is something that can only be encountered once in a while.

When the host walked onto the stage again, the audience, who had been immersed in the previous performances, realized one thing: the highlight of the night had not yet begun.

Xiao Zheng clapped his hands as if he suddenly understood.

"Hey! I know why!"

"what?"

Su Chengyi was startled by him.

"Because they all know that they are not the main dish tonight! If they perform too hard, they won't be able to steal the limelight, which is not worth it.

It is better to go for a lyrical style, so that the audience can listen to it first, and then it will not be too overwhelming, which can be regarded as a preparation for emotions.

Besides, the song is good, and even if you are eliminated, you can still leave a classic performance. This is a win-win strategy!"

Xiao Zheng spoke eloquently with a look of certainty on his face.

Su Chengyi listened to his explanation and nodded casually.

Maybe it made sense, but he didn't care about it now.

His eyes were fixed on the lift behind the stage, from where the singer would step out and stand under the spotlight after the performance began.

Without a cell phone, he had lost contact with Chen Jinzhi since entering the venue. Now, like all the audience members, he was looking forward to what kind of performance it would be.

From Su Chengyi's perspective, he could see that the host's hand holding the script was trembling slightly.

It seemed that it was the most important part of the night, and the psychological defense that he had just adjusted with great difficulty began to collapse again.

“Dear audience friends, the next contestant to perform is also the last contestant to perform in this show.

Yes, careful audience friends will find that so far, no singer has completed the mask-unveiling ceremony during tonight's performance.

So that means the next singer is also the unmasking contestant in this show!"

When the host emphasized this, the audience was suddenly in an uproar and realized one thing.

That means Chen Jinzhi is really the unmasking contestant in this game.

Negative public opinion and online violence have been going on for so long. Despite such exaggerated pressure from all sides, she not only participated in this live broadcast, but also decided to reveal her face in this show.

To be honest, this kind of mental quality is so strong that it is almost inhumane.

Although the performances of the contestants just now were very good, there were also many small mistakes that are difficult to ignore.

For example, skipping the beat, breaking the voice, imbalance in pitch, etc. Although the advantages outweigh the disadvantages, it also illustrates a problem.

There is a huge difference between live broadcast and recorded broadcast. No one can guarantee that the live performance is perfect and will not make mistakes.

Recorded broadcasts still offer a chance to make corrections and save face, but a live performance that fails is a failure, and no one can save the situation.

If it unfortunately becomes a car accident scene, netizens will make it into various highlights and emoticons, and it will become a laughing stock for a long time.

Under normal circumstances, such a decision would still require consideration, let alone Chen Jinzhi's current situation.

The audience, who came with the intention of watching a joke, applauded and cheered, fully expecting any car accident that might occur next.

The audience who have always been looking forward to Iris's performance are very worried. If she makes a mistake in her performance, it will ruin the entire effect of tonight's live broadcast.

Su Chengyi and Xiao Zheng's mentality is different from that of most people.

Xiao Zheng was very much looking forward to it, he was so happy that he almost looked like a black fan.

"Hey, Master, don't be so serious. Believe in your big star, okay? Someone like her would never make a mistake in a situation like this."

"Of course I believe her."

Su Chengyi took a deep breath and calmed himself down.

"I hope that if I'm nervous for her, she won't be nervous anymore."

At this time, the host received a prompt from the backstage, took a step back and announced loudly:

"Next, let us welcome the last contestant of this competition!"

The lift slowly rose, and a figure appeared behind the curtain.

Xiao Zheng rubbed his hands and cheered along with the audience:
"Iris! Iris!"

In this situation, Su Chengyi always felt that it would be unsociable if he didn't shout along, but he still held it back.

Chen Jinzhi's skirt lifted slightly, and she walked to the front of the stage step by step to the beat of the drums.

The moment the spotlight came on, everyone's breathing stopped for a moment, and the scene was so quiet that one could hear the sound of a silver needle falling.

The black dress outlined her beautiful curves, and the dark embroidered patterns were wrapped around her like rose buds. Her undyed long hair reached her waist and had a beautiful luster like silk.

The mask she wore on her face was in the shape of a fox, a common sight in costume dramas, and it completely covered her entire face.

Although every audience member present knew what a stunningly beautiful face lay beneath the mask, even if someone had never seen her, they would not have the slightest doubt about such beauty.

Chen Jinzhi was such a person. She just stood there, and she had a straightforward temperament, as if she was born to be the synonym of beauty. Su Chengyi recalled that he seemed to have never seen Chen Jinzhi wearing a black skirt.

So he only now realized that black suited her so well, and it made her figure look like a piece of medieval poetry.

The contestants were already in position, and during the final ten-second countdown, both the booing and the worried people reached a consensus and waited quietly.

The first part of the prelude was given to the cello, and the sad and classical melody echoed through the stereo sound of the entire venue.

"Trench."

Xiao Zheng swore quietly.

Because he and Su Chengyi were on a business trip in South Korea when recording the initial audition, this was also the first time he heard the song.

He didn't expect the young man's music style to change so drastically. At first he thought he was in a classical music concert hall.

Chen Jinzhi lowered her head slightly, and the ends of her hair fluttered slightly in the shadow of the stage. The moment captured by the camera seemed to be engraved in everyone's pupils.

"You hope that I will go crazy and hope that I will not live alone,
You want me to be cool and cool, but you also want me to be frivolous and mean.

I want my sunshine and my unshakable charm.

You tease me to the point of not knowing how to laugh or cry, and you tease me to the point that my heart is as dry as a tree."

Chen Jinzhi believes that the lyrics of this song convey a kind of eerie beauty, which is a very insightful evaluation.

Because it was obvious that everyone in the venue felt the same way, and then they realized that this song seemed to express all her feelings during this period of time.

How come they fit so well?

Chen Jinzhi's voice seems to be tailor-made for this song. No, it should be said that her whole person seems to be tailor-made for this song.

She was born to stand on the stage and sing this song. The dark red light fell on her, and she was like a Lycoris radiata blooming on the border of hell.

"May I be like smoke, may I be graceful and lazy,
Look at me crazy and look at me funny and dignified,

You want me to be beautiful and you want me to kill without blinking an eye.

Wish me happiness from now on or I will wither and die."

This song doesn't seem to have a clearly defined climax, and the whole song is actually composed of several similar structures.

However, as the song reached the second half, the tone of the accompaniment rose in rhythm, and the atmosphere on the scene was brought to its climax.

Basically everyone was hearing this song for the first time, and at this moment, they felt a surge of empathy. The emotions of the people on the stage were conveyed to everyone's heart through every note.

Chen Jinzhi's voice and pronunciation are very personal. Gentleness and coldness can coexist in one person's voice.

Just when the audience thought that the tune would become more passionate and would officially reach its climax, the stage suddenly became quiet.

The accompaniment and singing stopped synchronously, and the lights turned from dark red to white, focusing on Chen Jinzhi.

What happened? A stage accident?

So far it has been a flawless performance, it won’t fail at this moment, right?

Everyone held their breath in surprise. For a moment, they seemed to hear the thumping heartbeat of their own heart or that of the person next to them.

Even the confident Xiao Zheng was a little surprised. He subconsciously turned his head to look at Su Chengyi, wondering if the song was originally set up for this part.

Su Chengyi was also slightly stunned. This was not his design. Such a pause was too risky.

His heart, which had finally calmed down, was in suspense again.

But for some reason, he felt that such worry was well-founded.

I wasn't worried that this was a stage accident, I was just wondering what Chen Jinzhi had prepared.

Under everyone's nervous and focused gaze, Chen Jinzhi put her hand on her mask.

There was an instant of suppressed screams and cheers from under the stage.

This is the famous scene that everyone is looking forward to.

The unveiling was set at such a moment of complete silence, and everyone's heart was moved by her actions.

Chen Jinzhi tapped his fingertips lightly, paused slightly, and then took off the fox mask.

She didn't deliberately do some slow motion to create suspense, but this scene was automatically slowed down in everyone's eyes.

It was like a scroll of an ancient painting being slowly unfolded before your eyes in the most cautious manner.

And when the spotlight illuminated her entire face, people immediately realized what kind of person was depicted in this ancient painting.

It is as if the moon is covered by the light clouds, and it is like the snow covered by the flowing wind.

As if he was tickled by the audience's reaction, Chen Jinzhi held the microphone and raised his eyes to look at the camera.

The accompaniment returned to the stage at this moment. The silence just now had been building up for this moment, and the effect created was so amazing that people couldn't help but sigh.

"For my seduction and my eyes lost,

I want my true love and my charming eyes,
Elope with me and be my loyal subject.
Praise me for being in bud and yet to bloom, and praise me for being more conspicuous when I try to hide myself. "

The word "enchanting eyes" is probably the first time that this word has such a clear and concrete image.

Chen Jinzhi's pair of peach blossom eyes are best at expressing deep affection, yet also being close yet distant.

Just now the audience was able to remain basically calm and concentrate on enjoying the performance, but from the moment she showed her face, the situation was completely out of control.

The cheering words prepared by the fans were once again personally certified by the person himself, in a completely unreasonable way.

Chen Jinzhi, the goddess of Luo River on earth.

From today onwards, no one will have any objection to this cheering message. It is tailor-made for everyone and not at all exaggerated.

"Please let me be charming and let me be erotic,

Like me in full bloom or like me lacking oxygen and being erratic,
By my beauty and my lust,
You blame me for living a hundred years without worries and you blame me for shedding tears in vain. "

Chen Jinzhi ended the last note beautifully, like the sound of a broken string on a guqin.

The lights dimmed again, she lowered her head slightly, and everything was silent.

After a brief pause, Chen Jinzhi bowed to take her leave, with the hem of her skirt and the ends of her hair forming the most elegant curves.

The applause was thunderous.

At this moment, the audience shouted in unison "Iris! Iris!" without any distractions, just cheering for this stage that captivated everyone.

If I have to describe Chen Jinzhi's performance, it would be like the singing of a siren.

Su Chengyi suddenly understood why sailors would be attracted by the sirens' songs and walk into the deep sea without looking back.

There is such a person standing on the reef with his back to the moon and singing. Even if he knows there is an abyss ahead, he will uncontrollably walk over, just to see her more clearly.
