Chapter 14 Group Stage
Chapter 14 Group Stage
The affair of Tian Mingze caused a great uproar. After Xu Feifei's blog post, he tried his best to come out and cry that he was wrong.
The writing was so heart-wrenching that Chen Fan couldn't help but think, "Did they hire someone who writes angst to ghostwrite it for him?"
However, some uninformed netizens were actually fooled and expressed their indignation on behalf of Tian Mingze.
Just then, an unexpected situation arose.
An account with the username "Lin Yuan Ting Yu" suddenly posted a video. The video was clearly taken in a private room, where the lighting was dim and the room was filled with smoke.
But through the layers of shadowy figures, one could clearly see Tian Mingze sitting in the corner of the sofa, engrossed in a passionate kiss with a scantily clad girl.
The occasional bursts of water were enough to make anyone blush.
The key point is that this guy's caption is even more amazing: @TianMingzeV You surnamed Tian, you said you were staged, come and explain to me what happened.
The release of this video caused a dramatic shift in public opinion online.
"Holy crap! Is Tian Mingze playing this trick? The school beauty is so pitiful!"
"Upstairs, it's not just you, the school beauty, who's suffering. Rumor has it that Tian is always surrounded by thugs; some girls who get harassed can't even run away!"
"+1! And the guys he targeted too! Otherwise, how do you think he stole Fanren's song?"
"Damn! Now that you mention it, Tian Mingze really isn't a human being!"
The hashtags #CampusBeautyFedFiveYearsOfYouthToGiveToDogs# and #OrdinaryManExtraordinaryManDyingOfWrongment# immediately climbed into the top ten trending topics.
Tian Mingze was so angry that he smashed up his house again, but this time all his remaining fans had left.
Chen Fan, however, watched with great interest. "Don't disappoint me, Tian Mingze."
After the trial broadcast, Chen Fan gradually got into the swing of things, broadcasting his process of making weight-loss meals and exercising every day, and also making sure to check his weight before bed and upon waking up.
Three days later, Chen Fan, who had gained more than a dozen followers, received a text message notification from the competition organizing committee.
[Masked New Voice Organizing Committee:]
Dear extraordinary ordinary person, congratulations on successfully teaming up with contestant Yun Duo! Please contact your teammate to confirm the song you will be performing!
Another change to the advancement rules: both players in the same group must advance to be considered successful; if only one player advances, both players must participate in the revival round!
Cloud: 130********]
Chen Fan was completely distraught after reading the text message; he knew what this cloud was.
She's a girl from Inner Mongolia. Her voice has nothing to do with her nickname; it's neither gentle nor light, but rather has a deep, resonant quality typical of the grasslands... Her features are very distinctive!
A bad feeling crept into my heart, and sure enough, a system notification came to my ears.
【bite--
Hidden quest unlocked: Please sing "Liang Liang" with your teammate [Cloud] and earn 100 million emotion points!
"Depend on!"
Chen Fan was furious at the system's tricky behavior. "Why don't you do it yourself?!"
[This is a legitimate system and will never help the host cheat!]
"Tch! Coward!"
Despite his anger, Chen Fan still dialed the number sent by the production team.
"Hello Miss Cloud, I'm Extraordinary Person. Did you receive the text message from the production team? We'll be in the same group next episode."
"Received! Hi Fanren, I'm your fan!"
Surprisingly, besides her loud voice, this girl actually had a pretty good personality.
Chen Fan touched his nose. "Well, I've prepared a song, but it's a bit challenging for you. When are you free to meet up?"
"I'm available anytime!"
Ge Mingyun's eyes sparkled as she eagerly pledged her loyalty: "I have a music classroom, let's go there!"
Chen Fan was still wondering: Is this girl from a wealthy family?
"good!"
Having agreed to meet in the afternoon, Chen Fan leisurely livestreamed the process of making a weight-loss meal before heading out.
Little did they know that once the team roster was released, the internet would erupt in uproar.
Chen Fan doesn't go online much, so he doesn't know.
This girl's father is richer than Tian Mingze's biological father. She goes on the show simply because she loves singing, and she always barely makes it through each round.
She became famous purely because of her own videos and live streams. As for her singing skills... she certainly has presence.
The two met in front of the Zhonghai Building, as agreed. When Chen Fan appeared wearing a mask and a baseball cap, he immediately spotted the little girl holding a live streaming device and talking to herself happily.
"Yeah! This was totally worth it! Putting everything else aside, just being able to team up with Brother Fanren is something I can brag about for the rest of my life!"
"Hehehe! Yes, yes, yes!"
Chen Fan: ......
"Hello, I am an extraordinary mortal!"
"Hello! I'm Ge, oh no, I'm Cloud Mortal Brother!"
Chen Fan chuckled; the little girl was quite cute.
"Are you livestreaming this?"
"Oh, it was arranged by the production team. I'm close to them, so I brought it. Other groups have them too!"
Chen Fan originally intended to keep the live stream running, but after hearing this, he decided against it.
The two chatted as they went upstairs, with Chen Fan mainly asking questions and Yun Duo answering.
By the time they reached the vocal music classroom upstairs, Chen Fan had basically figured out Yun Duo's situation.
The little girl had no systematic training; she just learned on her own out of pure passion.
However, his voice always seemed to be just a little lacking, and the judges' comments were always: "It would be better if you changed your vocal placement."
After Chen Fan led his men upstairs, they saw a classroom with an even more complete set of instruments than the school's music room...?
"I'll sing two lines first, and you can learn them from me."
Chen Fan sang the same six lines he had sung a few days ago.
When it was Yun Duo's turn, the whole thing changed; the gentle and tender melody was given a rock and roll feel by her.
"No, no, that's too much!" Chen Fan stopped him. "The beginning is a bit ethereal, like something through fog that makes it hard to see clearly."
"Huh?" Yun Duo thought to herself, "Can this feeling really be sung out?"
Although she didn't say a word, Chen Fan understood her expression.
Chen Fan instructed, "Don't give all your breath at once. Try to give it little by little, like a balloon deflating, squeezing your vocal cords."
At this moment, Chen Fan was thinking: System, can I use those vocal range expansion coupons you gave me on this girl?
[The system is one that cherishes women, so of course it's possible!]
"The night is getting a little cool~"
"Good! That's a little better. Add a bit more breathy sound."
Night falls...
"Something's not right here, let's try again."
Night falls...
"It's okay, just play normally. We can take it one word at a time, there's still time."
Netizens who initially thought the two would have a dramatic time ended up watching Chen Fan's tutorial instead!
"My goodness! Mortal Brother is amazing! He can get our little princess to practice singing over and over again! He's incredible!"
"Is that the key point upstairs? The key point is that the little princess sings better and better each time, can't you hear that?"
"I got goosebumps all over! Mortal Brother is amazing! He didn't give me a single lecture, just pure, practical advice!"
Before he knew it, it was dark, and Chen Fan was shocked to realize that he had been practicing with the little girl all afternoon.
That's enough for today! We'll continue tomorrow morning.
"good!"
Ge Mingyun originally wanted to be a chaperone for Fanren, but as soon as Fanren opened his mouth, she knew that she didn't even have the qualifications to be a chaperone!
My idol is amazing!
However, the idol did not get upset because she sang poorly.
They didn't fawn over him like those other people just because their fathers were rich.
Instead, they earnestly guided her on how to control changes in her voice.
And comfort her: It's not that the song is bad, it's that you're not good enough.
Waaaaah, this kind of ordinary guy deserves to be famous!
When I get home tonight, I need to ask my older brother to organize the employees to vote for Fanren Ge!
Everyone was initially quite excited, looking forward to seeing how well the little princess would perform the next day, but the production team ended up replacing the contestants with a different group for the live broadcast the following day.
This has netizens extremely anxious: We want to see Fanren Ge sing with Yun Duo!
Without the cameras, Chen Fan felt much more at ease.
After the last day of practice, Chen Fan stayed alone in the vocal classroom to record the accompaniment.
The clouds stood guard outside the door, keeping a close watch.
As Mortal Brother said, their accompaniment is the ultimate weapon, and it must not be heard by anyone!
