Huayu: Starting from the top talent show

Chapter 48: Qilin is auspicious

8 month 15 number.

He took leave from the crew again and went to Beijing to participate in the recording of the first half of the semi-finals of "Hip-Hop in China".

Because Shen Juan always does her makeup outside, she is basically the last one to arrive at the recording site.

Today is no exception.

As a result, when the program staff came in, they saw Gai walking towards the locker room with a gloomy face, followed by his girlfriend who told him to calm down and not be impulsive.

"It's okay to say they are the ones who are wrong, but it's not okay to say I am. They can tolerate it, but I can't." Gai slammed the door and left angrily, leaving the onlookers standing there in a daze, looking at each other in bewilderment.

"what's the situation?"

Shen Juan instantly became eager to watch the show, so he found VAVA, who was putting on makeup, to ask about the situation. He then found out that the song that Pijiwan prepared for the competition today dissed all of them, the qualified contestants, even his teammate TT who had been eliminated.

Only then did I remember that this guy had done something like this in his original time and space in order to create as much buzz as possible before the finals and to canvass votes for himself.

The finals will be recorded at the end of August.

The semi-final will be aired on August 8.

The final will adopt online popularity voting, so Shen Juan can fully understand what Pijiwan did.

But it’s hard to say whether they recognize it or not.

After all, Pidgevan also scolded him.

Come to the collective dressing room and meet up with everyone.

As soon as he came over, Shen Juan saw Gai adjusting his headband in front of the mirror, and said that he was going to play Pijiwan.

"It's no use getting angry with him." Ai Fejieni was also very angry, but he knew that kiwi fruit was not underground. He could earn a lot of dumplings already, so why would he still make a yarn rack?
Wouldn't it be stupid to get yourself into trouble?
And he also knew that Guy wouldn't really fight.

After all, friends who have a certain understanding of the Haha circle know that this guy has pretended to be cool more than once or twice, but he has never succeeded in his attempt, and people in the circle have made fun of him for this a lot.

So everyone who understands understands.

If it's covered, just listen to it and don't take it seriously.

At eight o'clock in the evening, the audience checked their tickets and entered the venue one after another.

The recording of the semi-finals officially began.

First, Che Che came on stage to introduce the rules of the competition.

The rules are roughly like this: six players are drawn into three groups for a 1V1 battle. The three winners will directly advance to the second half of the semi-finals, and the three losers will have to compete in the second round for the last qualifying spot.

Then today's judging is also different from the past. It is neither voted by the audience nor decided by the producers.

The program team specially invited seven top music producers in the Chinese music scene to demonstrate authority and fairness.

Of course, justice is only relative.

After all, even the program's music director Liu Zhou came up to judge, so it was difficult to maintain absolute fairness.

The reason is simple, he is Gai's boss.

Gaiyuan Shikong and Pijiwan are double champions, their strength is certainly undeniable, but their backgrounds are also strong enough.

Of course, Pijiwan also has a backstage, for example, Modern Sky behind him has made great efforts to build momentum for him.

Che Che didn't waste any time and started drawing lots directly.

The first ball drawn was Pidgewan.

So all the contestants in the backstage lounge started to make a fuss, saying that they hoped the director would pick them, and that they wanted to battle with Pidgewan and beat him.

Shen Juan had a playful smile on his face.

Because he already knew about tonight's game.

After stirring up the audience's emotions for a long time and making it easier to insert advertisements later, Che Che opened the white ball in his hand and took out the cards with the contestants' names printed on them. The decibels of screams at the scene rose again.

Looking at the name in his hand, Che Che was silent for a long time, and then revealed the suspense with a little emotion:

"Shen Juan."

As soon as the words fell, the whole audience boiled over.

Che Che clearly remembered how surprised he was when Shen Juan called him and told him that they would play against Pi Jiwan in the semi-finals.

From ancient times to the present, kings have never met each other. Is it really a good thing that the two tentative championship candidates meet so early?
They even held a special meeting to discuss this.

Ultimately, it’s based on the principle of believing first and then trusting.

They still agreed to Shen Juan's request.

After all, letting the two most popular contestants face off against each other before the finals is also a good marketing topic. Even if one side loses, they have other ways to send the loser to the finals.

No program can guarantee absolute fairness.

That's why Shen Juan wanted to defeat Pijiwan head-on before entering the finals, to prevent the program crew from setting up a shady deal in the finals and having two champions emerge like in the original time and space.

The draw is over and the contestants go on stage.

A true enemy doesn't bother to talk trash.

So let’s get straight to the show.

The song that Pijiwan brought was still the one that DISSed everyone, "HME". He started the group mocking mode directly on the stage, and DISSed Jony J, Da Gou, Xu Zhenzhen, Xiao Qinglong, TT, Ai Fejieni, Guy, Huang Xu, and his current opponent, Shen Juan, whom he hated the most.

What's interesting is that this guy DISS Shen Juan for pretending to be cool with an expressionless face, and also mocked him for being loud when arguing, implying that he is just pretending to be tough but is actually tough. This is a response to the rumors that a contestant had revealed online that Shen Juan and Pi Jiwan had a conflict, and Pi Jiwan was scolded by Shen Juan so hard that he dared not say a word.

It’s hard to say whether the audience was fooled or not.

Anyway, Shen Juan couldn't hold back his laughter any more.

There's nothing I can do, this guy curses like he's acting like a spoiled child.

Those who can hold back from laughing for even a second are gods.

After Pijiwan's performance, Shen Juan walked out slowly from the shadows deep in the stage with an expressionless face. He didn't even look at Pijiwan, as if he completely ignored his existence, which made the rapper, who had just finished singing and was still feeling smug, scratch his head in anger.

Coming to the center of the stage, greeted by cheers and screams, Shen Juan picked up the microphone and said, "Qilin itself is not easy to fight."

“But you can’t say it can’t be fought.”

"Qilin." As the words fell, the majestic accompaniment sounded.

The audience who were familiar with Shen Juan's style and the judges who had done their homework before the show were all a little confused.

Is that the Qilin I was thinking of?
Has Shen Juan, who has always been following a rap style that combines Chinese and Western styles and is similar to Kanye West, also started to play with Chinese style?
"My voice is loud because I am doing the right thing!"

Without giving everyone time to think, Shen Juan started with a shout that brought all the listeners back to reality.

"Damn it! You scared me!"

"Pi Jiwan just said that his voice was too loud, and Shen Juan just DISSed him back? He didn't want to take revenge overnight."

"He is very real, this is the spirit of Hip-hop!"

Shen Juan went directly into the first verse.

"Everywhere is a road to heaven,

Walk with big strides, not afraid of your shadow slanting,

Those who disturb my mind have long been ignored.
There is a universe in the lyrics.

Silently recite the word "caution" in the middle of the road.

The contestants and producers waiting in the backstage lounge were also surprised by Shen Juan's opening words. Their expressions and reactions varied, so much so that they temporarily ignored the lyrics.

"Awesome, brother!" GAI laughed with a crooked mouth.

"I like him so much, if you don't agree, just fight him!" Ai Fejieni, the fat guy with dreadlocks, jumped up directly from the sofa.

"I told you not to mess with Shen Juan, but you didn't listen." Hot Dog shook his head and looked at the camera with a smile.

"Look at Pidgewan, look at his reaction!" VAVA pointed at the big screen and cheered.

"I can't see it because the brim of the hat is pulled down so low." Pan Weibo unconditionally supports any action of his teammates.

Wu Jiaheng's lounge was completely silent.

On the one hand, Wu Jiaheng didn't want to give Shen Juan, whose popularity has been frighteningly high in recent times and whose traffic data is about to reach the top threshold, a chance to take advantage of his popularity.

On the other hand, although Pidgewan has many problems, he is a member of his team after all. As a producer, he still has to support his people to a certain extent.

Although he also felt that Pidgewan deserved it.

Since you DISS everyone for the sake of traffic and popularity, don't blame others for not giving you face and DISS back.

How can it be possible for you to make unilateral output?

As Shen Juan's singing gradually got into the mood and the melody became smoother, the audience who were shocked by the beginning finally focused their attention on the song itself.

"Whose rivers and lakes,
With a little sword energy, I will extinguish your incense and candles.

Take it as a blessing to suffer a loss.
When I teach you a lesson,
The get out of class ends at noon.

Let the scorching sun burn away your foul breath,
Why should you be afraid to follow in the footsteps of the past?

I have my own breath,

One sword opens the gate of heaven!"

Every line of the lyrics expresses the youthfulness and high spirits, without any bluffing or pretense.

If Gai's Hua Guofeng is the kind of gangster-like person who roams the world, then Shen Juan's Hua Guofeng is the kind of young knight who comes from a famous and upright family, with a righteous and proud character, who goes to the meeting to fight at the top of the world with an open mind.

Chinese style songs do not necessarily have to be sung in dialect.

The chorus part is especially amazing.

"Don't wake me up,
I can't bear to hide.

Climbing up the steep hills and descending the steep slopes,

Weeds and wildfires,

It’s not bad to just let the wind pass by.”

In the lounge, Wu Jiaheng was dumbfounded.

The line from the previous issue, "Go forward courageously into the tiger mountain, and see the light after the clouds are pushed away," had already made him feel very agitated, but he didn't expect that Shen Juan's "Qilin" in this issue would be even more explosive.

He felt that if there was still the show "Hip-Hop in China" next year, he would have to prepare two Chinese-style songs to get a piece of the pie and take advantage of the popularity.

On the other side, Shen Juan's opponent Pi Jiwan's face, hidden in the shadows of the stage, became increasingly ugly.

To be honest, he still didn't think Shen Juan was better than him, but he had to admit that the song "Qilin" was too competitive. The whole venue was completely ignited, and anyone else would be slaughtered.

Especially the last verse, Niu Mo even brought out the suona, what the hell can I do?
It is not my fault, but Qu's fault.

Thinking of this, Pijiwan lowered the brim of his hat a little more, and became more silent and autistic.

On the stage, Shen Juan was completely singing with great enthusiasm.

Unlike the original singer of this song, Good Morning, his basic skills are more solid. He basically didn't sing any backup songs or avoid any lyrics throughout the whole song, and he just finished the whole song.

"I will carry my flag and my medals,

Take my brothers with you,
Posing on top of a mountain,

I want more than anything you've seen or heard.

All those bells and whistles,
Add them together and you'll have to top it.

I want to take this space between heaven and earth,

Dye it all red,

I want to become a flower,
Six thousand miles of flaming clouds,
From Wudang to Southern Shaolin,

From Wudang to Southern Shaolin,

Like a unicorn! "
