After binding the entertainment system, she made countless top stars

"Without further ado, let us welcome our first contestant who will be responsible for opening the show tonight!"

Applause gradually rose from the audience and smoke filled the stage.

Along with the blazing flames on the big screen, a tall figure walked down from the lift platform. He slowly walked towards the extended stage specially prepared by the program team, getting closer to the audience.

After seeing clearly who came out, deafening cheers broke out in several specific places almost instantly.

In the last game, Chu Kong appeared in front of the piano in a white suit, looking like the elegant and gentle prince charming in a fairy tale.

This time, Chu Kong was dressed in red, with only the collar and hem showing a little of the black shirt underneath. This look, combined with the image on the big screen, made him look like a rose walking out of a raging fire, a change from his previous "lyrical style".

Last time, Chu Kong sang Yan Sui’s famous work, which resulted in him taking second place. Many people also said that he was riding on Yan Sui’s popularity.

Chu Kong was singing his own song this time, and it was a new song that was released not long ago. Lu Wantang guessed that it was probably to get rid of rumors of "riding on the popularity" and so on.

She tilted her head to the side and asked Chu Yue if her guess was wrong.

The latter nodded: "Indeed, there are considerations in this regard."

Chu Kong’s career in Nanzhou has just started.

Yan Sui is a top star known to everyone in Nanzhou. If too many people try to take advantage of his popularity, it will easily ruin Chu Kong's popularity and further affect his career.

Therefore, in the next few competitions, if you want to choose cover songs, you have to avoid several popular singers from Nanzhou.

Besides--

“But that’s not the only reason.”

Chu Yue lowered her voice again, "Also, I always feel that Chu Kong's ranking this time is a bit dangerous, and he might be eliminated."

"In that case, why not take this opportunity to promote your new song!"

Hearing this, Lu Wantang immediately gave a thumbs up.

Chu Yue smiled and said, "But it's still not as good as the artists in your company, who always sing new songs."

With the current ratings of "Singer", every time a singer from Tangxing Entertainment sings a new song, it is equivalent to a large-scale promotion at the same time as releasing the new song.

It can be said that even the money for publicity is saved!

Of course, it is not easy to do this.

First, the singer needs to cooperate 100%. While believing in his own ability, he also needs to believe in the quality of the song and the composer.

Second, the songwriters have unparalleled confidence in their own works. They are confident that even if the songs are not familiar to the audience, the new songs they write will be equally outstanding.

Therefore, people in the forum have always said that Zigui must be a person who is very confident in his work.

In fact, this is indeed the case.

Listening to Chu Yue mentioning some of the comments on the forum, Lu Wantang thought about the source of his confidence and couldn't help but smile:

"They are right, but I think most songwriters are confident in their works. After all, they have worked hard to polish them."

Chu Yue did not comment on this.

Because no matter how confident other songwriters are, the possibility of asking contestants to sing new songs that they have composed and have not yet tried out in every episode after they step onto the stage of "Singer" is almost zero.

At this point, Shiki's behavior is very unusual.

When people on the forum comment on Zigui's "confidence", words like "arrogant" and "rampant" occasionally pop up.

However, Chu Yue looked at Lu Wantang, who had a calm expression beside him, and thought that those people who said Zigui was very arrogant would never have thought that Lu Wantang was actually a very humble person in private.

The two chatted for a few words and then turned their attention back to the stage.

It was not until the song was about to end that Chu Yue spoke again:

"How do you feel about this song? Compared to the last game..."

"The styles of the songs are different, so they are not comparable." Lu Wantang shook his head, and then said with certainty, "If nothing unexpected happens, Chu Kong has a great chance of advancing to the finals."

After all, he was the one that the Dongzhou Music Association had the highest hopes for, the one that Xingrui had spent a lot of effort on, and the one who had the greatest hope of being promoted to an S-level singer in Dongzhou. Even though he was much younger than Chen Yulin, and a junior to Yan Sui and Zhou Yijun, his strength was unquestionable.

"Just because of what you said, I will believe your vision!"

Chu Yue smiled and patted her shoulder, "He's going backstage. I'll go see how the other person is preparing."

'Another person' probably refers to the guest singer.

Lu Wantang was still quite curious and wanted to find out a few more questions, but Chu Yue slipped away so quickly that she didn't have a chance to open her mouth.

On the stage, before Chu Kong was about to leave, he was asked about the guest singers who would be performing later.

Cui Yuanbo: "Can't you reveal some information? You see the audience here really want to know, can't you give them some information for their sake?"

Chu Kong pretended to be hesitant, and under the watchful eyes of everyone, he said, "My guest singer is a man."

Before he finished speaking, he turned around and left without even stopping.

Cui Yuanbo was stunned for a moment, and reached out to stop the person, but failed.

He smiled helplessly at the audience, "At least the gender has been revealed. The rest is up to you to guess."

[No guess, no guess. There are so many male singers, how can we guess?]

[I bet Cui Yuanbo must know who the guest singers are! Unless he can’t even go backstage!]

[Bo Ge is really used to keeping things a secret, and he’s even cooperating with the players!]

……

Regardless of whether the audience believed it or not, Cui Yuanbo calmly changed the subject.

“The first performance was so exciting, I’m sure everyone can’t wait to listen to the second song!”

"Well then, please welcome the second contestant of the second semi-final match!"

Compared to Chu Kong, Zhou Yijun's appearance as he walked step by step from the stage entrance seemed much more "ordinary".

The song Zhou Yijun chose tonight was still a lyrical song.

Accompanied by melodious piano sounds, his singing voice was delicate and soft, just like a piano, and it seemed to strike into everyone's heart one by one.

The song has both narrative sense and vocal skills. In Lu Wantang's opinion, Zhou Yijun's performance should be very successful.

However, just when Zhou Yijun was about to sing the last climax part, there was a problem of rushing the beat!

Although he made timely corrections and ordinary audiences could not hear any difference, most of the public jury should be able to tell the difference.

It just so happened that Lu Wantang was sitting near the public jury tonight.

As soon as Zhou Yijun asked the question, someone muttered, "It seems like he has stolen the show."

"Are you too nervous?" the person next to him asked.

"Probably."

Most people agree with this statement.

But some people also think that Zhou Yijun's musical sense is not as good as other talented singers, and she occasionally had problems with rushing the beat during live performances in the past.
