I just want to sell products, but you're forcing me to perform talents.

Chapter 426 The First Midnight Singing Contest Grand Final

Seeing his fans in the live stream complaining about his weight gain, Ye Xian couldn't help but laugh. He then took out a bottle of iced cola and chugged it down in one go.

"I'm going to be filming a new movie soon, and the movie needs me to be a bit greasy, so I've been binge eating like crazy lately, trying to gain 20 pounds by the end of the month."

[20 pounds? Brother Xian, are you out of your mind?! Going this far for a single role?!]

[What kind of role requires you to ruin your image like this? Tsk tsk tsk, Ai Lele and Hua Yuyu, come out and learn from Brother Xian, look at Brother Xian's dedication, look at your damn idol image!]

[The person upstairs shouldn't try to drag Xian Ge into this and start a fight, otherwise I have reason to suspect that you're a hater pretending to be a fan.]

[Given Chongxian's tenacity, I'll definitely go to the cinema to see your new movie!]

……

While devouring high-calorie foods, Ye Xian laughed at his fans in the live stream, saying, "Will my fans who admire my looks leave me if I keep eating like this?"

Everyone laughed, and many fans said they had unfollowed him. Ye Xian said, "After the new drama ends, I will lose weight as quickly as possible, so you can unfollow me for half a year and come back to see me in half a year. At that time, I will be a handsome god again."

The late-night snack enthusiasts burst into laughter, each saying that they were all eagerly anticipating the day they would be proven wrong.

After chatting for a while, Ye Xian said seriously to the camera: "We have completed the semi-finals of the first Late Night Singing Contest, which is now the top 10 to 5. Today is our final. Now, I would like to formally introduce the five contestants to everyone again."

This beautiful young lady is Ogura Watami from Donghe Province. She has gained many fans for her exceptional voice-changing skills, especially after her stunning rendition of "Boy" in a mature, sophisticated voice, earning her the title of "Number One Inspirational Mature Woman." Welcome the versatile voice actress—Ogura Watami!

A doll-faced girl with long blonde hair and wearing a JK uniform stood up and bowed to the millions of viewers in front of the camera with a mature voice that was completely out of place with her appearance and attire: "I am Ogura Watami, please vote for me, my brothers and sisters."

Wow, that voice paired with that baby face, I feel like I can be transported to my dream world without even trying?

[As expected, voice actor fanatics are every man's dream! They can fulfill any fantasy you have.]

[We women like that too, okay? Watami, please perform a cool, aloof male god voice and let me have a good laugh.]

[How can those lecherous guys upstairs be so vulgar? Such beautiful sounds, shouldn't they be saved for later to savor?]

……

As a voice actress, Ogura Watami has many supporters on Kuaishou. This time, the midnight singing contest helped her stand out from millions of contestants. Her voice-changing skills played a crucial role in this. Moreover, she was the only ordinary blogger among the five contestants without any background or identity.

For this reason alone, many people have a particular fondness for Ogura Tomi.

After introducing Ogura Watami, Ye Xian began to introduce the next person.

"This handsome young man is Liu Yiming from Shanghai. His name is very well chosen, meaning to make a name for himself. He participated in the singing competition and his outstanding rap singing skills have won him a lot of support. Let's give him a round of applause."

A small-eyed man with a middle parting, wearing a black hoodie and exuding a cocky air, stood up, gave the camera a thumbs-up and pinky, striking a classic rapper pose: "Hi everyone, this is AKA Yiming. Tonight, I swear to take first place!"

Liu Yiming comes from the label WaWaJiJi. Many contestants in the popular rapper competitions in recent years have come from WaWaJiJi. Many young fans have already fallen for him. Rather than saying he came to participate in the competition, it would be more accurate to say he came to ride on the coattails of the competition and prepare for his official debut.

Ye Xian knew the other party's intentions but didn't take it to heart. Instead, he continued to introduce the third contestant with a smile: "The third contestant is Deng Qiqi from Dagang Province. I dare say that Deng Qiqi's powerful lungs are unmatched in the music industry. I am ashamed of myself."

A petite girl with chubby cheeks stood up. She had a short braid and her hair was dyed silver-white. She looked very delicate and sweet, but her leather pants somewhat ruined her look and temperament.

"Hello everyone, I'm Deng Qiqi from Dagang Province. My specialty is imitating goldfish. Shall I show you how a goldfish blows bubbles?"

Deng Qiqi was very lively and immediately broke the ice. Ye Xian smiled and gestured for her to show off her special skills.

Deng Qiqi puffed out her cheeks, her little mouth slightly pursed, and her upper and lower lips began to open and close rhythmically. Her big eyes blinked, and everyone was immediately charmed.

Wow, I think I really saw a goldfish blowing bubbles at me.

[To the person upstairs: I have a preliminary idea.]

[Seriously, how can someone look so much like a goldfish? Is this some kind of mermaid?]

[Deng Qiqi often performs goldfish blowing bubbles during her live streams, and she can also make many different goldfish face expressions.]

……

The applause thanked Deng Qiqi for her wonderful performance. Ye Xian couldn't help but exclaim, "Deng Qiqi, with your amazing talent, I feel like you don't need to participate in my competition anymore. You can earn more money by live streaming than by singing."

Deng Qiqi raised her goldfish face and laughed, "No way! I want to win everyone's favor with my strong lungs, not by acting cute. So, Brother Xian, I'm determined to compete for the top three this time."

Ye Xian nodded, gesturing for her to sit down first: "The next contestant is Hairun from the Malaysian province. I've heard that Malaysians love to drink and eat spicy food. Is that true?"

A young man with dark skin, wearing a white T-shirt without any lettering, stood up and greeted the audience in front of the camera with a thick accent: "Hello everyone, I'm Hairun. As Brother Xian just said, we Malaysians love to drink and eat spicy food, and I can confirm that. We are all born foodies, so if there's anything good to eat, you can take me with you!"

Ye Xian led the applause to welcome him, and then began to introduce the last contestant.

"The last contestant, Yuri, comes from Shilian Province. He is a tough guy with delicate emotions that are completely opposite to his appearance. When I first heard him sing, I almost thought he was a little girl."

A bald man who was 1.9 meters tall with an extremely long beard stood up. Many of the late-night snackers were stunned by his appearance. Even though many people knew about Yuri before, they couldn't help but be shocked by his physique, which was completely different from that of an ordinary singer.

"Hello everyone, I'm Yuri, a guy who loves singing love songs!"
