Chapter 6 Advancement
"Good evening, audience friends. I am Xiaoyue, a reporter from the Sound of Music. We are now located outside the auditorium of the Xi'an Conservatory of Music. In half an hour, the National Youth Music Festival jointly sponsored and supported by the five major entertainment companies in the country The competition, the Xi'an competition area, and the competition of the top ten and three competitions will start soon. Compared with the past, this music competition is not only unprecedented in scale, but also has sub-competition areas in every province and city in the country. Once the contestants pass this round of knockout rounds in each sub-competition area , you can enter the national competition, audience friends, music contestants from all over the country, what kind of surprises will they bring us, let us wait and see——"

"According to the information we have now, the ten contestants in the Xi'an Division this time are all young folks. None of them have been trained by a professional music company. Moreover, the average age is 20 years old. They are really worthy of the Youth Music Competition. The title, compared to the previous singing competitions ranging from teenage children to uncles in their forties and fifties, it is obvious that this time the competition is more targeted, especially more attractive to young people—"

"Now the ten contestants who are about to participate in the final round of the sub-division are all musical talents who have gone through two rounds of selection. They are excellent candidates who stand out from hundreds of thousands of contestants, but after tonight's competition, only three One can imagine the cruelty of being able to qualify for the National Competition. Now that the ten contestants are all preparing in the background, they must be very nervous. It's a pity that the organizers prohibit pre-match interviews to prevent disturbing the contestants. , so we can only wait for the game to end before interviewing the players—”

"Time has passed little by little, audience friends, it is now [-]:[-], and the game at [-]:[-] is about to start. We have now entered the auditorium where the game is located, and we will broadcast live here in a while , who among the ten contestants will advance and who will be eliminated, let us wait with bated breath—”

At the same time, in a hut in the city's middle village, Ning's father and Ning's mother had already put Xiao Tongtong to sleep, then turned down the volume of the TV, and quietly watched the live music competition that they had never watched before.

"Friends from the audience, good evening everyone, I am the host Xiao Yang, here is Huayi Entertainment Group, Xinguang Entertainment Group—" The host on the TV came to the stage to open, and besides the media reporters, there were three instructors, And more than 1000 students from the music school as the audience.With them, the scene will never be as quiet and boring as the previous two rounds.This game finally had the atmosphere it should have!

The backstage lounge door was suddenly pushed open, and a staff member said to the contestants inside, "Zhou Yu, who is the first to play, come with me!"

Ten of their players had already drawn lots before, and each of them knew the order in which they would appear. Ning Cheng and the others had drawn the fifth lottery, which was not too early or too late. Involuntarily becoming nervous, everyone watched the live TV broadcast in the room silently.

When people are nervous, the time is fleeting, "Xiao Sheng is gone, it's time for us to play!"

Hearing Ding Xuan's greeting, Ning Cheng got up quickly and followed the staff to the front.

"Don't be nervous, take a deep breath, just pretend that the people sitting below are wooden people—" Ding Xuan looked at the nervous Ning Cheng and comforted him in a low voice.

Ning Cheng was a little dazed, especially at this moment when he could hear the voices of the audience in front of him, his heartbeat soared suddenly, and the thumping sound was scary.

"Brother Xuan, I want to go to the toilet!" Ning Cheng suddenly grabbed Ding Xuan beside him and said.

Ding Xuan was taken aback for a moment, and then said to the staff leading the way in front of him, "How long will it take for us to play?"

The man turned back and said, "Up to 3 minutes."

After hearing this, Ding Xuan said to Yang Rui who turned around, "Brother Rui, Xiao Sheng and I are going to the bathroom, and we will be right back."

Then he dragged Ning Sheng to the bathroom quickly.

Yang Rui cursed secretly in his heart with an ugly face, but he didn't say much, but he was really upset with the other two members of their temporary group that had just been established.

Time was running out, the two of Ning Cheng left and came back quickly, Ning Cheng was just nervous, and it wasn't really that he couldn't hold back anymore.Seeing them coming back, the staff member turned around and said, "It's less than a minute, you guys are ready to play."

"--The next stage is the Chaoyang Group composed of three young people. The song is their own original song. "Youth Training Manual", everyone welcome!"

Following the end of the host's announcement, the three of Ning Cheng immediately walked to the stage.

Ning Cheng touched the mask on his face again, then followed Ding Xuan's figure and stepped on it.

In the darkness of the stage, the three instructors had different ideas in their hearts. "Original song? Real or fake? Do they have this talent?"

"Original? I hope it will be a surprise!"

"Don't be a mess of garbage!"

After a few hanging bells and the sound of birds chirping, the light above Yang Rui's head lit up, "Follow my left hand, right hand in slow motion, right hand, left hand slow motion replay"

Ning Cheng, who had been singing along silently in his heart, lowered his head, but could feel the light falling on his body. He clenched his hands tightly, but the voice in his mouth finally came out, "This song brings you happiness, you have not in love with me"

After singing a line, Ning Cheng didn't pay attention to Ding Xuan's next singing, but actually hummed Ding Xuan's part in his heart, "follow me, nose, eyes, move your ears, pretend to be good, be handsome, change your style non-stop"

Then the next moment, the three of Ning Cheng sang in unison, "Youth is too much, what are the unknown guesses, and the troubles of growing up!" Immediately after the stage lights were brightly lit, the accompaniment sound suddenly rose!

The three of Ning Cheng jumped in unison. With the transition of a melody, Ding Xuan took a step forward, "polish the leather shoes, put on a suit, and wear a one-carat dream——"

Ning's father and Ning's mother in front of the TV looked at the figure on the TV. Even though Ning Cheng was wearing a mask, Ning's father and mother recognized his son quickly.Only Tongtong blinked her eyes, as if she still didn't recognize that the masked person on TV was her elder brother.

Ning Sheng on TV sang and danced, his movements were in sync with the other two, and he cooperated skillfully. He was not at all like the introverted and stuttering son in their eyes.

There is no parent who doesn't want their children to grow up healthy and happy, so even though Ning's father doesn't approve of Ning Cheng's singing at such a young age, seeing his son's hard work on TV, Ning's father can't help feeling Some consolation, now my son's stuttering is turning in a good direction, if he can completely cure his stuttering and grow up happily, what's wrong with participating in such competitions a few more times?
The instructors at the scene originally had different thoughts, but now they all turned into approving smiles.From the arrangement to the lyrics, and the dance, this song is closely related to youth and youth, and it is inspirational and positive. It is the most suitable for teenagers.

And the students of the conservatory of music who are the audience don't care so much, they just feel that the melody of this song is energetic and beating, the lyrics are catchy, and the performance is full of mischievousness unique to teenagers, which suits their appetite.

Especially Ding Xuan and Yang Rui are pretty handsome, but Ning Sheng has a sense of mystery because the mask covers half of his face. The song is only halfway through, and there are already bold female audiences expressing themselves with shouts of joy.

The media reporters behind have already marked the word Chaoyang Group in their notebooks, especially according to the player information they got, the three members of this Chaoyang Group, the oldest is only 17 years old, and the youngest is only 13 years old , and this song is their original creation, although I don't know if it was created by the three of them together, or by a certain person, or two people, but at their current age, it is amazing that they can create such a song up.

If everyone heard the original songs of a few teenagers at first, they would feel that these children are fooling around. However, the songs are now unexpectedly popular, and the lyrics and music are very close to their age group. Obviously, This is not a farce joke, but the first cry of a young musical genius!
Many old reporters have already silently made a draft in their hearts, and they are going to sort it out when they go back. At any time, people are most interested in geniuses, especially young geniuses.And isn't people's interest the direction that journalists pursue?

With the performance of this "Youth Practice Manual", the originally lukewarm scene at the scene suddenly became more intense, and the three people performing on the stage were encouraged by the audience, and they performed more energetically and freely. Fortunately, when the last note ended, there was thunderous applause and whistles, and some girls screamed, as if they were at a concert!
"Ahem—well, just now, Chaoyang Group's performance was extraordinary and really surprising. Now, let the three instructors comment on it." The host waited for the scene to calm down, and said.

"You guys are doing the right thing, keep doing it, I support you guys!"

"Your performance is the best so far in this competition. I believe that the pressure on the players behind will increase a lot. However, I still hope that there will be more surprises, just like Chaoyang Group's performance just now. Same!"

"Well, I just want to see the true face of the youngest member among you. Can you take off the mask and let everyone have a look?" The last mentor said with a smile.

Ning Cheng, who was panting slightly, felt the eyes looking at him from all directions. He was wearing a mask to avoid accidents during the performance. Now that the performance is over, it doesn't matter, so he nodded and took it off with his hands. face mask.

Under the mask was a youthful and handsome face, and some female viewers who had already fallen in love with the Chaoyang group shouted, "So cute——"

"Hahaha, it's really cute. Although your performance is very exciting, whether you will be promoted or not will not be decided until the last ten contestants have finished their performances. Therefore, the three of you should go backstage to rest for a while. Contestant No. [-] enters the field!"

——————————

"It's brother!" Tongtong exclaimed in surprise as she watched Ning Cheng take off his mask in front of the TV at home.

Ning's mother hugged Tongtong and said with a smile, "Yes, it's my brother, my brother is on TV---"

"My brother is on TV, my brother is on TV---" Tongtong felt the relaxed mood of her parents, and became more and more happy, shouting in a childish voice.

After leaving the stage, the three of Ning Cheng were very excited. Although the final result is still unknown, judging from the audience's reaction and the attitude of the instructors, it is obvious that they have great hopes of advancing.

However, some people were happy, while others were not. Player No. [-] who passed by Ning Sheng and the others was obviously one of the people who was in a bad mood.

Not to mention that the amazing performance of the Chaoyang group makes it more difficult for others to advance, but it is said that after the Chaoyang group ignites the enthusiasm of the audience, if the performance cannot satisfy the audience, even if there is no booing, it will affect the contestants at any time. Play, not to mention in such a tense moment, if there is a slight negligence, then all previous efforts will really be wasted.

The three of Yang Rui happily returned to the waiting room. The other players in the waiting room looked at them differently, with a hint of envy and jealousy.

Ning Cheng sat on the chair, recalling everything on the stage just now, especially the moment when the audience cheered for them. Ning Cheng never realized that he was enjoying the glory of that moment like that, and this feeling made him a little fascinated. , some longing.Quietly, Ning Cheng's rebirth goal seemed to have something extra.

The competition is still going on, but to the disappointment of the audience and instructors, there is no such amazing performance as the Chaoyang Group. They are all covers of old songs. Although some of them sing well, they are obviously not as innovative and interesting as the Chaoyang Group .

Finally, when all ten contestants stand on the stage, the host will announce the final three promotion places.

"National Youth Music Competition in Xi'an Division, [-]th Jin and [-]rd knockout round, the promotion place is No. [-] contestant, Lin Zhidong." A young boy of eighteen or nineteen with No. [-] hanging on his chest took a step forward with excitement.The audience applauded!

"Contestant No. [-], Chaoyang Group!" After the voice fell, the three of Yang Rui stepped forward, and some girls shouted amidst bursts of applause.

"Contestant No. [-], Liu Rui!" The last urgent quota was announced, and the other contestants who were not selected couldn't hide their disappointment, but the urgent one was full of excitement.

"Friends from the audience, although today's knockout round is over, the national competition will officially start half a month later. At that time, teenagers from all over the country will compete for the final championship through more brutal competitions. Let us bless today's promotion I wish the three contestants in the competition great success, go forward bravely, and have a result!"

After the game ended, the three of Ning Cheng had just left the backstage when they were surrounded by several reporters. Seeing this situation, Ning Cheng was a little at a loss, but Ding Xuan and Yang Rui were indeed overjoyed.

"May I ask who came up with the name of your group?"

"I thought of it on the spur of the moment. The great man said that we are all the rising sun in the morning, so we named it Chaoyang Group!" Yang Rui said with a smile on his face.

"Is the song you performed today really original?"

"Of course, it's absolutely original!" Yang Rui said without hesitation.

"So did the three of you write this song together, or who did it?"

Yang Rui's face suddenly changed, and he couldn't help turning his head to look at Ning Cheng, who was silent and silent. He didn't know how to answer. If the answer was created by Ning Cheng alone, I'm afraid Ning Cheng would be praised by the media immediately and become a genius. Boy, but what about yourself?I'm afraid no one will pay attention, but if you lie and say that the three of you created it together, once it is exposed, or even exposed on the spot, it will be too embarrassing, and it will be even more difficult to become a star in the future.

Seeing that Yang Rui didn't answer, Ding Xuan directly said, "This song was created by Ning Sheng alone in our group, including the lyrics, music and arrangement."

The reporters were overjoyed when they heard this, and immediately surrounded Ning Cheng behind them.

"Ning Cheng, you are so young, how did you create such a beautiful piece of music? Did you learn from other songs, or did someone give you an idea?"

"Ning Cheng, did you really write this song by yourself?"

"Ning Cheng, what gave you the inspiration to create this song?"

"————————"

Ning Cheng's ears were full of various problems. In front of him were two or three microphones that were constantly shaking, and his mouth was tightly pressed, for fear of accidentally exposing his stuttering appearance to the media. Fortunately, at this time The other contestants came out and separated the reporters. Seeing this, Ding Xuan and Yang Rui immediately pinched Ning Sheng from left to right, and then the three of them pushed the reporters away, and quickly joined Yang Guangliang who was rushing to get in the car and left.

"The youngest musical genius in our city—13-year-old Ning Sheng!" The next day, Yang Rui read about yesterday's competition in the newspaper. The Chaoyang group accounted for more than half, and in the Chaoyang group, Ning Sheng alone accounted for another almost half.

"It seems that we have to treat that kid better in the future." Yang Rui frowned, and threw the newspaper aside. It seemed that more than half of the excitement that he had been excited about being in the newspaper for the first time had been taken away by someone at once, which made him a little nervous. irritable.
