Chapter 332
Although it is still hot during the daytime in Kyoto in October, when the sun sets and the breeze blows, the coolness of autumn has begun to show.

Nowadays, it is impossible to go out in the morning or evening without putting on a coat. Of course, for girls who love beauty and anti-freezing, sometimes they cannot be treated with common sense.

Just like we can in all seasons of the year, no matter what time it is in spring, summer, autumn and winter, there will always be girls in short skirts walking on the street without caring about other people's eyes.

However, now in October, for girls, it is a season that is completely ignored. Many people still maintain summer attire, or put on a top coat, but short skirts are still most girls favorite.

Ning Sheng and Emma attended the opening ceremony of the Asian Music Competition as guests.Although Ning Cheng felt that this so-called opening ceremony was completely unnecessary, anyway, Ning Cheng and Emma came back this time to watch Ning Tong and the others play, and now there is a way to enter the stadium openly, so why refuse it!
This Asian music competition, which has been prepared for more than a year, has now announced all the contestants. It has to be said that many people, including Ning Sheng, were surprised.

Because among these contestants, in addition to three newcomers like NLZ group, the others include 33 second-tier singers and ten first-tier singers. There are a total of [-] contestants. It is simply a competition among Asian singer elites.

Although there are no top singers at the level of Uranus superstars to participate, for the Asian music scene and many fans, the big names at the level of Uranus superstars are basically semi-retired. Wealth makes these few Uranus superstars really have little enthusiasm for work.

Basically, it takes two to three years to release an album, a single, or a concert, and even five or six years, or even more than ten years before releasing a new album, or making a collection, doing A concert to make some money, just show your face.

Therefore, in fact, for the music scene, especially for Asian fans with big advertisements, the singers who are often active in front of everyone are first-line or second-line singers, and this Asian Music Competition is obviously enough to represent the top music scene in everyone's mind. up.

As for letting Uranus superstars participate in the competition?That's purely wishful thinking, not to mention those big guys who are too lazy to move, or don't want to participate in any competitive programs, even if someone is hired with a lot of money, think about how much money it will cost?Moreover, if you compete on the same stage with the heavenly kings and queens, if you can't find people of the same level, it will definitely not work. At that time, the money of a few heavenly kings and queens will collapse the program group, let alone these big names in the music industry They are not second- and third-tier singers, and even first-tier singers are afraid to cause trouble under the pressure of TV stations. If you can't serve these big guys well, your program group Wuxi can be suspended in minutes.

In the past, it was not that the program group without ambition wanted to do something big, but unfortunately they had to give up halfway because of coordination and funding problems.

Today's most successful music program, The Voice of China, although there are three kings and queens in charge, but the three big names are actually invincible as mentors. They just bring some newcomers to the program group and contribute to the increase in ratings. .

All in all, various TV stations have a love-hate relationship with big names like Heavenly Kings and Queens, but they absolutely dare not invite them at random, because if you don't do it well, you may lose money at any time, and the show will be cancelled.

This Asian Music Competition is jointly sponsored by several large entertainment companies from China, Japan and South Korea, so money is not a problem, channels are not a problem, as long as you have the strength, you can display it here.

To put it bluntly, this competition is to build a platform so that the singers of the three countries can more easily expand their popularity and influence in Asia, and provide a new and fast channel for everyone's future development in Asia.

For example, if the NLZ group as a contestant can perform well in the competition, even if the NLZ group does not go abroad, it can let Japan, South Korea, and even other audiences watching this competition know them, know them, and have Chance likes them.This is a new channel that brings singers and Asian fans closer together.

In order to attract the attention of the media and the general public, the organizer specially held a so-called opening ceremony, and invited many superstars to help out.

After Ning Sheng and others entered the arena, the 33 contestants first appeared on stage one by one, and then the superstars who were invited as guests performed on the stage and sent blessings to the contestants in the subsequent competition.

Ning Sheng sang "Dream Chaser" and then he got off the stage and sat with Emma to watch the excitement.

The competition venue is very large, and it looks a bit like the two-story structure of the Spring Festival Gala. Except for the gorgeous stage, ordinary audience seats are placed on the second floor. Today, the guests on the first floor are superstars like Ning Sheng, or people from various entertainment companies, so , when the contestants behind came to the stage to sing together to end the opening ceremony, the loudest cheers were always in the air on the second floor.

As for the guests on the first floor, they basically applauded and finished their work. Few stood up and shouted, especially Ning Sheng, the youngest among the Uranus superstars, was 27, and most of the others were in their 40s, [-]s, or even five years old. , an old man in his sixties, how can he have the mood of a young man.

After the opening ceremony on the first day, with the media reports, fans all over Asia were paying attention to the competition, so the next day, at [-]:[-] p.m. on Saturday, the Asian Music Competition officially started.

Because there are a total of 33 contestants, the competition is divided into three groups, a group of eleven contestants, of which singers from the three countries each account for one third, and are divided into three groups ABC.As for Ning Tong and their NLZ team, they were assigned to team A, which will compete on the first day, while team B and team C will compete tomorrow and Friday night next week.

Because there are eleven contestants in each group, in the first round of the competition, the audience and the judges from the three countries will score together to eliminate one, and then in the second round, the ten contestants will draw lots to match each other, and the winner will be the winner. The promotion continues, and the losers are eliminated. After five winners are selected, a five-in-three competition is completed through a round of competition, and then three groups of ABC and three players in each group are cross-matched to select the final three winners. Then proceed to the final top three ranking battles.

The rules sound troublesome and change, but they are actually simple. As long as you defeat your opponent, you can go to the end smoothly.

First of all, in the first round of Group A, the 11-person elimination match officially started. Ning Sheng and Emma were not present to watch, but they watched the live TV broadcast in the hotel.The two of them travel during the day, so of course they need to disguise themselves. At night, they watch Ning Tong's game together. In case of any accident, they can help at any time.

Although Ning Cheng prepared very good songs for them, after all, the contestants are too strong, and even those second-tier singers are popular and ready to attack the first-line characters at any time, so for Ning Tong and the other three rookies, it is really a challenge. Don't be careless.

Because the NLZ group just made their debut last year, they came in third in the first round. Before them, there were two second-tier singers from the same group.Speaking of which, the NLZ group is now a second-tier singer, but everyone here is their senior, so the three little girls are still very nervous. Fortunately, the organizers are well prepared this time, and the contestants have their own dressing rooms, so there is no need to embarrass each other crowded.

The first player to appear is a rock band from RB. They are different from the popular visual rock of RB. They play hard rock, but the creative ability of the lead singer of the core character is not yet mature, so the results are not very good. RB has been mixing for four or five years, released two albums, and is still in the second line. This time, I came to the competition to see if I can find more fans who like them, and to see if their new songs can be liked. .

The three of Ning Tong watched the live broadcast on TV in the lounge, eating snacks and talking with smiles.

"Is rock and roll all about yelling? It's like the end of the world!" Ying Bao wondered.

"Not necessarily. Rock also has lyrical and slow songs. You can see that Ning Cheng's album also has rock, but not all of them are shouting!" Shi Shi said.

While Ning Tong was biting a strange-flavored bean, he gloated and said, "My brother's rock people say it's fake rock? Many rock fans don't recognize it. Even he himself never said he was a rock singer. Maybe only This kind of yelling is real rock and roll!"

Ying Bao blinked her eyes and asked in confusion, "Didn't Ning Cheng's last Mandarin album have many similar songs like this?"

Ning Tong said, "Yes, but I don't think anyone is so crazy when I sing. Look at the lead singer with yellow hair, the veins are popping out, it looks like he's going to be out of breath soon! "

"Oh, it really is——"

The three girls were sitting in a group, eating and drinking, watching the live broadcast as if they were relaxing. This made the agent who had just returned from the bathroom feel dazed. She thought she was dazzled or sleepwalking What?

During such a serious and tense game, my three little ancestors are actually relaxing and eating snacks?
Pulled by the agent as if praying to God and worshiping Buddha, the three of Ning Tong finally stopped stuffing their mouths and sat quietly watching the live broadcast while asking the makeup artist to touch up their makeup.

The first rock band to appear ended the performance, and then the judges and the audience scored together. In the end, the hard band from RB scored 78 points. This is not a high score, but it is not low. It is to give Above-average grades.

The second player to play is Wonder Girls, a girl group from South Korea. This group can be said to be one of the ancestors of Korean girl groups and the first to lead Korean girl groups to success. Unfortunately, the success of their first album made them The company and manager were so confused that they finally failed to open up the European and American markets. In Korea, they were also crushed by their rival Girls’ Generation. Afterwards, they experienced various setbacks and turmoil, such as members leaving the group. The old man in the second-line girl group.

This time, with the full support of JYP, one of the three major Korean entertainment groups they belong to, they want to take this opportunity to return to their original peak, so when they took the stage, many Korean fans who supported them were excited at home Shout out to support!

In the backstage lounge, the three of Ning Tong were also told by their manager, "This group used to be very popular in Korea. This time it is likely to be one of your biggest competitors. You should take a good look."

The three of Ning Tong looked at each other, stuck out their tongues, rolled their eyes, and hooked their mouths. No one refuted the manager's words, because they knew that their manager was too nervous. Say, which player here is easy to deal with?But they have the lyrics and music of Ning Cheng, a great god, and Ning Cheng told them before that as long as they practice those songs well, not to mention the final champion, there is absolutely no problem in the top three.So everyone is actually quite emboldened.

The performance of Wonder Girls is still the characteristic of Korean girl groups. Their selling points are long legs, twisting waist, rubbing breasts, swinging hips and other actions. However, their movements are a bit conservative compared with the current Korean girl groups. The style of songs seems to be I wanted to rely on their original hit work "NOBADY", but unfortunately, the effect of the work was not as expected. In the end, the judges and audience only gave 75 points. Many judges and teachers looked at it and frowned and felt that the score was a bit high up.

The Wonder Girls are now encouraged to support in the form of four people. This competition is their last hope, but seeing the final score, the four of them held back tears and went to the backstage, and then they couldn't help crying. The three of Ning Tong who passed by were a little surprised, as if they discovered that they were not the only ones in this circle who felt the infinite beauty!
The three of Ning Tong came to the stage, and many young people in Huaxia in front of the TV stared brightly. The three girls of the NLZ group have become the most famous girl group in China.

"Accidental" is just the first song performed by NLZ group in the competition. This song is the masterpiece of Ning Sheng's previous Korean group BABY VOX. This group was once popular in Southeast Asia and is the representative of leading the "Korean wave generation". group.

And this "Accidental" is their most widely circulated song in China.

When the brisk melody of the prelude sounded, the three of Ning Tong, wearing uniform denim bottoms and white shirt tops, sat and danced with simple but lively and interesting kicks off this wonderful performance.

It may be too far-fetched to say that by chance
We can only pretend that we don't know each other

With different faces and respective lovers

Met by chance at a movie theater——
This is a song mixed with rap, but the rap here is not as powerful as those European and American hardcore raps, but a natural rap with a slight melody.

The three girls sang and danced, like a beautiful and mischievous love affair, which made people like and obsessed.

Backstage Wonder Girls watched the three Chinese girls singing and dancing on live TV. Although they didn’t have their seductive moves, the good songs made their dance performance very appropriate. Listen The cheers from the fans at the scene made the four Korean girls feel even more uncomfortable, but they couldn't help but envy each other on TV!
