Chapter 196

The teams on the public stage and the songs selected by each team have been assigned.

Some groups got the song they wanted to choose the most, and some groups chose the song that was not so satisfactory.

For Lu Zhou's group, until the end of the song selection, most of the members were still uneasy.

They had a lot of high-scoring members on the stage at the beginning of the Ming Dynasty, but in the end, because the members could not unify their opinions, they finally chose a song that most of the members were not satisfied with, and all of them looked strange.

After the song selection was over, Xue Xinyi passed by their group, walked over and said to Nan Qiao and He Biao with a smile: "Your group is so courageous, you actually chose "A Man Should Be Self-Reliant"."

Nan Qiao: "..."

He Biao: "..."

But in fact, only Lu Zhou has the courage in their group...

After the song selection session, each team is divided into training rooms, and then the team discusses the arrangement of captains and discusses how to play the songs selected by their own teams.

Regarding the song adaptation and stage design ideas, the team had to come up with a preliminary opinion first, and then discuss with the stage planning team of the program group how to realize it.

Lu Zhou: "Who will be the captain?"

In the training room, seven people, Lu Zhou, Gu Li, He Biao, Nan Qiao, Wu Jing, Zhou Shuyu and Ruan Shi Qingtao, sat in a circle. You look at me, and I look at you. The position of "captain" Get into a tangle.

"How about, Brother Biao, why don't you come?" Lu Zhou looked at He Biao, the oldest member of the team, and suggested.

He Biao, who was called by name, was stunned and shook his head quickly.

"I don't want to be the captain. I've always been alone. I haven't fought team battles. I don't have experience as a captain. I'm afraid I won't be able to do it."

His expression and tone of voice told everyone that he didn't seem to be humbly pretending to evade, but he really didn't want to be the captain in his heart.

There was a brief silence in the training room, and no one volunteered for a while.

Wu Jingxin said: "Although being the team leader will definitely be much more tiring than the team members, it is also a good opportunity to perform in front of the camera. Do you want to come forward and try?"But I have no stage experience. If I become the captain, can these people listen to me?
After hesitating, Wu Jing still decided not to take on this kind of thankless extra work. If he was exhausted, he might end up offending others if he couldn't do it well.

He looked around, and finally his eyes fell on Nan Qiao. She was the highest ranking here, and he felt that everyone would still listen to what she said.

Wu Jing: "Sister Nan, why don't you come?"

When He Biao heard it, he felt that it was feasible, and he also looked at Nan Qiao, "Yes, Nan Qiao, I think you are very suitable to be the captain."

Nan Qiao said "Ah?", "Me? I have no experience leading a team, and I don't know how the team should play this song. It's not suitable for me to do it."

After speaking, her eyes turned to Lu Zhou.

"Lu Zhou, you used to be a trainee of the men's team. You must be more familiar with the team than us. Why don't you be the captain?"

Nan Qiao didn't want to be the captain.

One is because she personally doesn't like the song "A Man Should Be Self-Reliant". This song is not her style, and she feels that she can't play it well, and she really doesn't have much idea about this song. If that's the case, it's better not to come up with it ;

The second reason is that she came to this show as a temporary decision, just for fun, and didn't intend to make herself too tired.

Before, the program team invited her over and over again. Although the pay was reasonable, she had no intention of participating in this program, but then remembered that Lu Zhou was in this program, and Nan Qiao suddenly wanted to join in the fun, so she came.

It was only when she came that she realized that this kid Lu Zhou really gave her a different surprise, which made her feel that she chose to participate in this variety show for nothing on the first day.

Captain, this is actually a very good opportunity to perform.

As for Lu Zhou, who has been silent for too long, although his fame has improved a lot because of a romance drama, she feels that it is not enough. He is so versatile, so more people should discover his talent and stand on the platform. high position.

Nan Qiao felt from the bottom of her heart that Lu Zhou was the most suitable person for the position of captain here.

He Biao nodded in approval: "Lu Zhou is very versatile and really suitable, and he also advocated the selection of this song. I believe it is more appropriate for him to be the captain."

Gu Li answered: "I also want to choose Lu Zhou as the captain."

Zhou Shuyu agreed with the proposal and said, "Brother Zhou really looks like a captain."

Ruan Shi Qingtao communicated with the translator by her ear, she reacted slowly, nodded and said, "I think so too."

"..." Lu Zhou laughed when he heard the words, "What does it mean to be like a captain... Does the captain still have a fixed template?"

Zhou Shuyu scratched her head with a silly smile, "No, I mean you make me feel like our captain."

Nan Qiao laughed and said, "All are expected, the minority obeys the majority, Lu Zhou, the captain is you."

Lu Zhou: "You don't need to ask for my own opinion?"

Nan Qiao chuckled before asking, "Would you like to lead us?"

Lu Zhou shrugged and said, "Yes, I just agreed in advance. I may be stricter as the captain. You have to be mentally prepared."

Nan Qiao didn't care, and said with a smile: "It's good to be strict. I like a strict captain. Only strictness can make progress."

Others also expressed no opinion.

In this way, Lu Zhou was chosen as the captain of their team.

Next, the seven began to express their stage ideas on the song "A Man Should Be Self-Reliant".

The adapted version provided by the creative team of the program group is to change the song to a rhythm suitable for dancing, and the stage design is a version of singing and dancing.

After Lu Zhou and the others finished reading, they all frowned.

He Biao: "I can't dance... This adaptation emphasizes dancing and weakens the power of singing, which is very unfriendly to me."

Nan Qiao: "I mainly think that this adaptation is quite different from the original version, but there are no bright spots. This song needs the feelings of the original version. If it is changed like this, the sense of substitution will be low. I think...we will Lost a lot of viewer points."

Zhou Shuyu: "I also think it's better to sing the original version if it's changed to this."

Gu Li: "I can add some rap."

Ruan Shi Qingtao didn't understand the so-called feelings of the original version of this song. She thought the original version was suitable for men to sing, but she felt that girls could also control the adapted version. She expressed a different opinion: "I feel fine."

When Wu Jing heard it, he finally had someone with the same opinion as himself, and hurriedly answered: "I also think it's okay... This version is changed to be younger, and it doesn't have such a sense of age, but I like it."

Nan Qiao smiled, looked at Wu Jing and said:

"That's the problem. Without the sense of age, you won't be able to sell your feelings. The highlight of the stage will be the dance, but the choreography is not particularly interesting. Then we will compete with the songs of other groups. PK, it is very likely to fall into the disadvantage."

Wu Jing was originally a monk halfway through, and he didn't have much confidence in his own views. When Nan Qiao said this, his face suddenly became hot, and he felt like he was an outsider who didn't understand the stage at all, but came in disorder.

In order not to let himself appear so ignorant in front of the camera, Wu Jing quickly said with a smile:

"Didn't we say that we can change the stage design ourselves? Since the dance is not good enough, then Sister Nan can help us redesign a dance. Sister Nan sings and dances so well, shouldn't this be a trivial matter?"

When Nan Qiao heard this, her face was slightly embarrassed, "I have never learned choreography."

The practice room suddenly fell into a brief dead silence.

Wu Jing's speech really showed his amateurism.

But he didn't know it himself. He always thought that those who danced well would definitely be able to choreograph.

However, that doesn't seem to be the case...

Embarrassed.

"There is still a difference between a dance performer and a choreographer." Lu Zhou broke the silence with a smile, "A choreographer must know how to dance, but a dancer may not necessarily know how to choreograph."

"This dance really needs to be revised. We can ask experienced choreographers for advice."

After speaking, Lu Zhou didn't leave Wu Jing any time to be embarrassed, and immediately expressed his opinion.

"My personal suggestion for the song is not to follow the adapted version provided by the program group. I think it is possible to keep most of the style of the original song unchanged, and then change a melody suitable for dancing in the interlude."

"In terms of stage design, pure group dance + singing may appear monotonous on stage, not innovative enough, or we will find ways to incorporate other interesting elements to enrich the stage."

"Although we are a group, the way this program is actually played is very free. There is no requirement to follow the pattern that boy and girl groups often follow. We can diversify and incorporate band styles or other styles."

After listening to Lu Zhou's words, He Biao said, "You mean adding musical instruments, right?"

Lu Zhou smiled, nodded and said, "Adding musical instruments just right, if you play well, it will be a big bonus on stage."

This is indeed... Lu Zhou's point of view was unanimously recognized by everyone, after all, the stage of his previous live broadcast confirmed his point of view.

Gu Li looked uneasy, "Does everyone have to play musical instruments? But I'm not very good at..."

Wu Jing echoed: "Me too... I won't."

Ruan Thi Qingtao: "I can contribute to the piano performance."

Lu Zhou looked at her and smiled regretfully: "The piano is not suitable to be the main instrument of this song."

He Biao: "It's really not suitable."

Ruan Shi Qingtao was stunned, blinked and asked: "Then what is suitable?"

Lu Zhou pursed his lips, looked around the others silently, and slowly replied: "Drums, Suona, Guzheng, Dizi..."

Everyone: "..."

Let them play these instruments, embarrass them...

Nan Qiao noticed everyone's indescribable expressions, and said with a smile: "How about, let's go back to dancing. I know a famous choreographer in China, and I can ask him to try to create a more creative dance for us. Let's practice hard, we should It won't be bad either."

Wu Jing: "That's a good thing, it's up to you, Sister Nan."

Lu Zhou did not agree, and began to pour cold water:

"If this is the case, the time for our dance may have to be extended. The proportion of people in our team who can't dance is relatively high. It is not easy for everyone to cooperate to dance a long dance well."

"Moreover, if you want to sing this song well, the difficulty itself is high. In the case of dancing, it is even more difficult for non-singer-born members to sing well while dancing."

"Then it will be a live broadcast stage, you know."

What Lu Zhou meant was: there are no million sound repairers to repair the post-production for everyone. This kind of full-on mic scene, non-basic singers with good basic skills, want to sing well while dancing well, it's just a dream...

He Biao, Zhou Shuyu, Gu Li, Wu Jing, and Ruan Shi Qingtao, who couldn't dance, fell silent again.

As a singing and dancing singer, Nan Qiao knows how difficult it is for ordinary singers to perform well on the singing and dancing stage.

Looking at the members who are not good at dancing, Nan Qiao thought to himself:
There are so many bugs in teamwork... It's not about overcoming your own shortcomings at all, but... even worrying about other people's shortcomings.

She suddenly felt that it is not easy to play a good boy and girl group.

Seeing that everyone was speechless for a while, Lu Zhou said:
"How about this, why don't we each talk about what talents we are good at?"

Upon hearing this, Wu Jing's face darkened slightly.

Ah, I hate this part the most.

What are you good at?God knows what I'm good at...

Do you have to be good at something?Speechless.

And Lu Zhou asked this because he wanted to find out their own characteristics and plan the stage.

Zhou Shuyu was very cooperative. When she heard Lu Zhou's question, she covered her mouth and smirked back: "I seem to be good at singing...but it seems that everyone here is good at singing..."

Wu Jingxin said: No, I'm not good at...

Gu Li laughed, "I seem to be only good at rap."

Lu Zhou looked at them with a smile, and said, "Vocal music is not counted, you can talk about extra talents such as musical instruments, martial arts, dance, opera, etc."

Zhou Shuyu touched the back of her head and laughed, "As for musical instruments, I can only play guitar and piano, but I'm not good at it either. I'm really not good at dancing."

After listening to Zhou Shuyu's words, Ruan Qingtao felt like she had found a confidant. She hugged her arm and said, "I'm like you, and I'm the same."

Gu Li next to him looked embarrassed and said, "I don't seem to be very good at musical instruments... I haven't danced, and I don't know opera..."

Lu Zhou nodded, looked at the silent He Biao, and asked, "Brother Biao, how about you?"

He Biao stroked his chin, pondered for a moment, and said, "I'm more proficient in piano and guitar, and a little bit in saxophone. I once learned a little bit of erhu in a show because of the need for the stage, but only for a short time."

Lu Zhou: "Where's Miss Nan?"

"Me?" Nan Qiao gave a long "hmm", as if he was reviewing the musical instruments he had learned, and said after a while:

"I can play the guitar, play the drums, play the violin a little bit, and play the flute. I'm also good at dancing. I can do jazz dance, modern dance, and a little bit of folk dance."

Ruan Shi Qingtao let out a "wow", applauded lightly, and said, "There are so many talents, so amazing."

Nan Qiao smiled at her and said, "It's okay."

Lu Zhou: "Wu Jing, it's your turn."

Wu Jing was named, he was stunned, his heart was inexplicably impetuous, but after all, he couldn't escape this calamity, he still had to face it.

"I..." He smiled embarrassingly, and said, "I'm not good at musical instruments or dancing... I have practiced simple dancing, but the basic skills need to be strengthened."

Lu Zhou looked at him, unexpectedly he was quite honest.I can't sing well, and I can't do anything else. It's a bit difficult.

"Are there any others? Not just musical instruments and dancing." He encouraged.

There is no way, if there is no bright spot in Wu Jing, then he will easily fail to show his characteristics in the team. With his level, it is likely to drag down the performance of the entire team.

So it is also very important to find the bright spots that Wu Jing can play.

"Others..." Wu Jing frowned and thought for a long time, then suddenly said: "I learned lion dance when I was young, does that count?"

Everyone looked over in surprise.

Lu Zhou raised his eyebrows, "Do you know how to dance a lion?"

Wu Jing nodded, but without confidence, he said, "I learned it when I was young, but I haven't touched it for many years... I guess it's unfamiliar."

Lu Zhou clapped his hands suddenly, and said with a smile: "Very good, I can practice. You suddenly gave me an inspiration. We can add lion dance elements, which is very suitable for this song."

He Biao's eyes also brightened, "It's really playable, it's a great feature."

Nan Qiao agreed and said, "This is not bad."

With the unanimous approval of these people in the industry, Wu Jing didn't expect that he could still play this role, and his spine straightened immediately.

He thought for a while and said: "Lion dance requires two people to cooperate. One lion head and one lion tail. I can be the lion head. Who will do the lion tail?"

The ladies all looked at the only four men present, obviously not planning to participate in this kind of session.

He Biao spread his hands: "I don't know anything about lion dance."

Wu Jing came confidently, "It's not difficult, you can learn it."

He Biao was obviously not interested in lion dance. He wrapped himself in the lion's tail and just spun around there. The lion's head stole the limelight. This performance was not only meaningless but tiring for him, he might as well play an instrument.

How can he say that he is also a senior in the industry, with his status here, is it possible that he is treated like a performer when he comes to this show?Don't do it.

And Gu Li also thought of this layer.

He was a freelance singer who didn't become famous, and he didn't want to be a foil for traffic artists... It's not good for him to play, so it's better to do what he is good at. The first one is an elimination system, and the second one can't continue if he doesn't... He's not stupid.

Gu Li silently moved her eyes away, avoiding Wu Jing's gaze.

Finally, Wu Jing's eyes fell on Lu Zhou.

Lu Zhou: "..."

Seeing this scene, Nan Qiao couldn't help smiling, and smoothed things over with wit: "Lion's Tail can actually be a backup dancer, you don't have to choose from our members."

However, at this moment, Lu Zhou suddenly said, "Let me do the lion tail."

Nan Qiao: "???"

Wu Jing was stunned. In fact, he thought Nan Qiao's proposal just now was very good, and was about to agree. After all, he didn't think Lu Zhou would be willing to dance the lion with him, but he didn't expect the result to be unexpected.

Now, after the show is broadcast, there will definitely be no shortage of hype topics between him and Lu Zhou.Wu Jing thought so.

Lu Zhou met Wu Jing's gaze and said, "The lion dance is only worth seeing when you put on a stake. Do you dare to challenge?"

When everyone heard this, they immediately looked at Lu Zhou in unison: "?!"

The corners of Wu Jing's mouth trembled, and he suddenly felt that Lu Zhou was so ignorant.

"You haven't practiced lion dance, so you don't know how difficult it is to get on the pile, do you? Do you know how long you have to practice hard if you want to get on the high pile?"

Saying this, Wu Jing even wanted to laugh out loud.

The other contestants secretly broke into a cold sweat over the scene.

But Wu Jing was right, it is indeed very difficult to perform a lion dance!not kidding!For ordinary people who are new to learning, it is not bad to be able to pass the lion dance. Want to play the pile?
Lu Zhou really underestimated the lion dance in this area, or he was too overconfident!
The scene became awkward for a while.

"Of course I know. I have learned lion dance from my grandfather since I was a child."

Under the inexplicably silent atmosphere, Lu Zhou suddenly spoke.

Wu Jing: "???"

Lu Zhou: "Oh, sorry, I forgot to mention that my grandfather used to be a famous lion dance instructor in our town."

Everyone: "?!"
