The battle for traffic in Chinese entertainment

Chapter 163 Do you have freestyle?
Beijing.

Daxing Starlight Film and Television Park.

A group of people gathered together, wearing hats, sunglasses, gold chains, drop-crotch pants, T-shirts with big logos, and leather jackets.

The person in the middle swayed his body in a rugged and sinuous manner, raised his arms like a conductor, made hand gestures, and pretended to sing seriously.

“Listen, seeing you got ritualistic~
cleansing my soul of addiction for now, cause I'm falling apart yeah~"

Before the song even finished singing a line of lyrics, the onlookers couldn't hold their breath anymore.

"Hahahaha! Fuck! You imitated it! That's how famous stars sing!"

"Fuck! It's an international superstar!"

“That’s the stupidity of it, hahahaha!”

"I've been practicing recently, but I can't get it as close as you do!"

"What will happen if you sing this in front of him later? Will you give it to him directly?"

"It's good to be a big star. This kind of rubbish song can win the championship in the United States."

The group of people who were laughing and joking suddenly became quiet for a moment.

"No, this song is really good!"

“I’ve heard it many times.”

"Wow! You listen to Gai Guo too!"

"Try to follow his rhythm when you pile drive, it's really great!"

"grass!"

"Hahahahaha!"

"Is it true that Xu Xing was practicing his beats while sleeping with a woman?"

"Hahahaha, just ask him in person!

"He's here, go ask him!"

A group of people looked up in unison.

The nanny car that just drove past stopped in front of the hall, the back door opened, and a handsome man got out of the car.

Stand still.

He turned around and glanced at the contestants who were gathered in groups of three or four.

"Xu Xing!!!"

someone exclaimed.

"Ahhhh!"

Someone shouted exaggeratedly.

He seemed to smile, then turned and walked into the studio.

At the door, four staff members came out jogging to help him open the door, and two stood on each side, lined up to welcome him.

"Xu Xing, I love you!!!"

Someone else shouted before going in.

But he didn't look back and walked straight in.

Four staff members followed him in an orderly manner and closed the door again.

The black nanny car drove back from the front of the lobby and headed towards the parking lot.

They looked away only after the car passed in front of a group of people.

"Is there anyone to help him pee?"

"Those who rush to catch it with their mouths can take pictures of xx Square, okay!"

"Did those women get orgasms when they saw him? Are they here to record the show too?"

"By the way, was it he who sent Wu Qian in?"

"I heard that the show wasn't going to happen, but he helped to get it done."

"…bullshit!"

"If you don't agree, go in and hang him up later! Go and try it!"

"He brought bodyguards with him when he came to record the show."

"Fuck, I didn't even want to come here in the first place. Sending someone in, what kind of background does he have..."

"Fuck! It hurts!"

"Fuck, these celebrities are so cool!"

……

The recording location is in Beijing, more than 30 kilometers away from Jinmao Mansion where Xu Xing lives, which is very convenient.

许幸录制的五期，是从最开始的288进70、70进40、40进20、再复活后确定23强，在战队组建开始公演之前下车。

In other words, you only need to record three times.

After arriving at the park, Xu Xing was somewhat surprised to find that he was the first star producer to arrive.

Che Che came over and apologized embarrassedly.

He explained that he originally thought Xu Xing would be late for a long time like many big-name artists, so he notified Xu Xing to come over earlier, but he didn't expect Xu Xing to arrive 10 minutes early.

Xu Xing was also speechless.

"I've never been late."

Xu Xing sighed.

“I’m so, so sorry!”

Che Che was even more embarrassed.

So Xu Xing waited for more than half an hour, finished putting on makeup and styling her hair, before the other three people, Hot Dog, Zhang Zhenyue and Pan Weibo, arrived.

The three of them were quite surprised to see Xu Xing coming so early.

Fortunately, apart from Wilber Pan, the other two basically don’t wear makeup.

Another hour passed - we recorded an interview about rap in the middle, and waited for all the contestants to enter before we officially started recording the first round of a cappella assessment without beats.

So even though the first contestant who came over performed very well, Xu Xing still asked casually.

“Do you have freestyle?”

I don’t know if it was because of the big news that top star Wu Qian was sent to jail, but the thorn in Xu Xing’s side that she was expecting to confront her did not show up.

Even if he was dissatisfied with the result that Xu Xing did not give him the chain, he would remain silent or ask Xu Xing to give him another chance.

In fact, the program's screenwriter Cen Bian had suggested that Xu Xing be given a script in which he was questioned by rappers all the way and had to prove himself with his works.

For example, at this stage, arrange a plot where after Xu Xing asks if there is any freestyle, the other party retorts to Xu Xing if there is, and Xu Xing responds with "prepared freestyle lyrics".

This way, firstly, Xu Xing's popularity can be maximized, making people feel more comfortable about spending 6000 million yuan; secondly, the show will be full of highlights, especially after Xu Xing was angered by the rappers and left the show halfway, the popularity completely exploded.

"I have no problem with that, but your show is going to blow up as well."

Xu Xing told them with a sigh.

"My fans will definitely report the show until it's off the air, dig up all the dirt on all the contestants, and spread it everywhere on the Internet. I really can't control them."

Then the production team had no choice but to give up the script and warn those rap labels not to release songs to diss Xu Xing. The final script was to love each other and leave the show with pain.

Just before the 40 to 20 1vs1 battle competition, a producer performance was arranged to squeeze out time for Xu Xing to sing a song on the show.

So several contestants who came to Xu Xing for assessment included confessions to Xu Xing in their lyrics, but their levels were not very good, so Xu Xing could only apologize to them one by one.

——It should be deliberately arranged by the program team for program effect.

The recording process was faster than Xu Xing expected.

288 contestants found three groups of producers to assess their a cappella performances. Taking into account all the odds and ends, the recording only took seven hours.

The next round of 70 to 40 will be recorded one day later.

Because this round requires recording 60 seconds of rap and freestyle consecutively, more preparation time is needed.

After the first day of recording, Xu Xing had a simple dinner with the three producers and director Che Che.

Hot Dog joked about the time when he and Che Che went to meet Xu Xing. He went from being full of doubts about Xu Xing to being convinced by Xu Xing. He told the story in a very exaggerated way.

Zhang Zhenyue and Pan Weibo rarely talked to each other, but they had a chance to work together in the future.

They also talked about developing their careers in the United States, touched on "passionfruit", expressed their feelings about the differences in music production levels between China and Europe and the United States, and asked about Xu Xing's next new song to be released.

After "passionfruit" was mocked as an official single, Xu Xing's fans came up with the argument that the next single would be the official single, and also said that the goal is to at least win consecutive championships.

So the media directly hyped it up, saying that Xu Xing's next single would be a super blockbuster single.

It was widely discussed on the internet, and naturally the music industry was also paying attention.

"A rap single?"

Pan Weibo was very curious.

"No."

Xu Xing smiled and shook his head.

"Hey, won't the producer sing new songs during the performance?"

Hot Dog asked.

"Yes."

Xu Xing nodded.

"The musical talent's vigorous creative period is a blessing for all his fans."

Zhang Zhenyue praised it.

After all, during this period, Xu Xing had two popular songs, "Love Yourself" and "Passionfruit", which achieved amazing results in the United States.

"Three Lives Three Worlds" and "Liang Liang" are the real hit songs that are extremely popular in China.

Now Xu Xing has two new songs.

“So you have no plans to release an album yet?”

"It's too much trouble to release an album, let's talk about it later."

Xu Xing was the absolute center of conversation at the dinner table.

During the period, some contestants who happened to be eating in the same restaurant came in to socialize. At this time, Xu Xing was relatively marginalized.

No matter what, these rappers feel that Xu Xing is not in the same circle as them.

After dinner, Xu Xing went back and had a conversation with teacher Qin Lan, with whom he had made an appointment in advance.

Teacher Qin has been saying that she wants to thank Xu Xing for saving her, and Xu Xing also wants her to help recommend Meng Ziyi into "Story of Yanxi Palace".

——Qin Lan is still influential in this drama. In her previous life, she brought people from her own company to play important supporting roles and even got the first role in this drama.

Therefore, the reason for meeting is still very strong.

Teacher Qin was a little reserved last time, but this time she praised Xu Xing's reasons highly.

As soon as I walked in, I started to like it.

At the beginning, he was very proactive, but later when he became passive, he was only half-hearted.

After a period of stalemate, she finally accepted Xu Xing's advice - don't waste it.

"You are so perverted!"

Teacher Qin was so angry that he kept hitting Xu Xing.

Then Xu Xing stopped her from hitting him, and further told her that it was really unreasonable to casually criticize others as perverts, and demonstrated to her what an entry-level pervert is.

Teacher Qin struggled hard.

Teacher Qin started swearing.

Teacher Qin is ready to die.

Teacher Qin...is extremely sad.

“I feel like I’ve never really lived before…”

She used all her remaining strength to hug Xu Xing's body tightly and sighed softly.

So Xu Xing took the opportunity to suggest cooperating with others.

"You are so perverted!"

Teacher Qin was anxious and angry.

But she was still pinned down, completely unable to struggle.

But Xu Xing is also a reasonable person.

Tell her that if the performance of "Story of Yanxi Palace" is better than "Ruyi's Royal Love in the Palace", she can just fulfill her promise.

"..."

Teacher Qin moved secretly.

This was the consensus reached by the two after two attempts. She did not directly object, but sent this secret signal, which meant she agreed.

Xu Xing let her go with satisfaction.

"Xu Tuyang, go to hell!!!"

Illiterate teacher Qin raised his fist and punched angrily——

She couldn't hit him anymore.

……

It was a day that made Teacher Qin feel extremely fulfilled.

……

Continue recording.

This round of 60s rap is much better than the previous a cappella without beat. At least Xu Xing doesn't have to remind himself not to laugh all the time.

However, many people still expose their shortcomings, and chaotic beats are the most common one.

When singing a cappella, if you are not concentrating enough, you may overlook the shortcomings, but after there is a beat, you really can't ignore them.

This is the most important basic skill of rap, and it is also the weakest point of most amateur rappers.

The main reason why Xu Xing was able to recover his rapping skills in a short period of time was that his breathing was steady and his beat was accurate.
