This top guy is crazy!

Soon, the ratings came out:

The average viewership rating of the first episode of "Summer Rap" was 3.31%!

Peak ratings 3.89%!

As soon as this data came out, it shocked the entire Internet!

Because the ratings of "Summer Rap" completely exceeded the 4% ratings record set by the premiere of "King of Masked Singer 2.91"!

This shows that "Summer Rap of China" has once again replicated the miracle of "King of Masked Singer"!

Another phenomenal national variety show is born!
In the next few days, "The Rap of China" continued to ferment, and the entire Internet was discussing topics related to "The Rap of China". Douban also started to score it, and 30 people gave it a high score of 8.2, which was 1.1 points higher than the previous "The Rap of China".

This is of course due to the better production, but more importantly, it is due to the gap between Cheng Cheng and a certain top star in his previous life. The reputations of the two are really too different!

At the same time, the global box office of "Green Snake" also reached 120 billion.

On January 1, "Summer Rap of China" started recording a new episode.

The new competition system is a 1v1 duel between contestants, but before the contestants duel, the four mentors will have a mentor stage performance. That is, each person will sing a song as a display of their personal strength.

Shi Jing and Xie Duo originally wanted to choose their own famous songs, but they didn't expect Cheng Cheng to take charge of all the songs.

In addition to being surprised, Shi Jing and Xie Duo received the songs written by Cheng Cheng for them three days in advance, namely "War" and "Wild Wolf Disco".

There is no need to say much about "Wild Wolf Disco", it can almost be said to be the most popular song in 17. This song directly sent Laojiu to the stage of the Spring Festival Gala, and became famous all over the country overnight.

"War" is a song Jay Chou wrote for Edison Chen in his previous life. Not many people may have heard this song, but it is definitely a masterpiece among masterpieces.

It was released relatively early, in 2004, and even if you listen to it in 2024, it will not be outdated at all.

Moreover, Shi Jing happens to be an artist from Yingdao, and this song which is a combination of Cantonese and Mandarin is very suitable for him to sing.

In the studio, the contestants have arrived.

The new episode is a 1V1 showdown between contestants. The studio has been transformed into a basketball court with graffiti of various patterns, including hip-hop cartoon characters, abstract art fonts and rough lines.

In the middle of the basketball court, the program’s logo is printed——

Summer has hip-hop.

The players sat on the steps next to the basketball court.

It is different from the last time they participated in the recording of the show. At that time, they were penniless and no one recognized them when they walked on the street. But now, with the huge success of the show’s premiere, each of them has undergone earth-shaking changes compared to before!

Popular contestants like Emily, Flame Tongue, Li Haoyu and others have become even more famous, with over a million fans!

And all of this is brought to them by this program!
Therefore, compared to the previous episode, each of them cherishes the opportunity to record "The Rap of China" very much, and no one wants to be eliminated.

The same goes for Shen Jie and Yao Wei. What others don't know is that they are both artists under Shinhwa, and Cheng Cheng is their boss. However, after the first episode was aired, they didn't make much of a splash at all. Compared with those popular contestants, they were far behind.

So the two of them felt very pressured and felt that they had unworthy of the title of General Manager.

At this time, Shen Jie and Yao Wei heard the contestants communicating.

"Is it starting soon?"

"It should be soon. Who will perform first?"

"I heard that we still have to vote for four mentors."

"I'm going to vote for Shi Jing. His rapping skills are definitely the best. Technically, it's hard for the other three to surpass him."

"If we keep real, we should vote for Shi Jing, but if we talk about personal relationships, this place was built by Cheng Cheng."

"I am more optimistic about Xie Duo. Although she is a lyrical rapper, her flow is good and her stage appeal is strong enough. Once she takes the stage, the place will definitely be heated up."

"As for the number of votes, Shi Jing should have the most, there is no doubt about that, and Cheng Cheng is definitely the second. Think about it, no matter how he sings, the program team will definitely give him some face, and the number of votes cannot be too low."

Shen Jie and Yao Wei felt a little uncomfortable when they heard this.

No, why do they think that President Cheng is involved in this inside story?
Besides, why do you think Mr. Cheng can’t rap?
Is it a bit too early to draw conclusions?
Just then, the music started and the first person to appear was Cheng Cheng.

On the big screen, the song information appeared:
Drifting North

Lyricist: Cheng Cheng
Composer: Cheng Cheng
Singer: Cheng Cheng
The rappers on the stairs exclaimed:
Is it original?

Original rap?
At this time, Cheng Cheng appeared from behind the stairs, he bumped fists with several rappers, and then walked onto the basketball court-style stage.

He took the microphone and said:

"I heard that most rappers speak fast, is that true?"

The rappers in the audience looked at each other, and after a while, they realized that Cheng Cheng was asking them.

One of the rappers said:
“Those are all basic skills.”

Cheng Cheng remains skeptical:
"Oh, is it so?"

He looked at the rappers on the stairs, examined each one, and asked:

"Would anyone like to battle with me?"

The rappers continued to look at each other in bewilderment, and finally Huo Tongue could no longer bear the provocation and took the initiative to stand up and said:
"I want to battle with you."

Cheng Cheng handed him the microphone:
"You said."

Huoshe took the microphone and made a gesture:

"Hey, I'm here today to participate in Tianxia Rap of China. As soon as I picked up the microphone, the whole place exploded. Those fake rappers hid in the backstage with numb legs. If you can't learn real talk, just go home and plant sweet potatoes! You so-called tough guys are all defective in my eyes. The elimination list has long been engraved with your ID cards. The championship belt will be hung on my shoulders sooner or later (uh). Real genes burst out of my blood (yah) and I trampled all the hypocritical masks under my feet. I will set the framework of this game rules! Remember my name is King. When the drums hit the floor, you will understand what it means to keep it real!"

The lyrics of the song "Flame Tongues" seemed to burn my mouth, and I spit out eight spurts per second. The performance was very gorgeous, and the rappers in the audience whistled and cheered, and howled like ghosts and wolves:

"It's so explosive!"

"Brilliant!"

"Ohhhhh! It blew up! It blew up!"

After singing, Huoshe provocatively turned the topic to Cheng Cheng.

It's like saying:
how about it?
Are you convinced?

His performance made the rappers scream again.

Nest grass!

This show is so effective!

The showdown between the contestants and the mentors!!!
They looked at Cheng Cheng, wanting to see how Cheng Cheng would react.

In their opinion, Cheng Cheng had chosen the wrong person. Why not just sing his own songs? Why did he have to battle with someone?!
Originally, as a mentor, no one would question Cheng Cheng sitting on the mentor podium, but he insisted on playing with fire, putting himself in an unfavorable situation, and he happened to pick the tongue of fire. You know, the tongue of fire came out from eight miles underground, and he has an invincible quick tongue, which is one of the best among all the contestants. How can Cheng Cheng battle?

No matter how you look at it, it's a loss!

As a result, Cheng Cheng's lips curled up into an unintentional smile.

He took the microphone and immediately sang:

"Blast this, blast this, my rhythm is terrible, my tongue is hot, my saliva is burning, that has that taste, I have to admit that my rap skills can conquer Tianxia Rap, Making and breaking it down, Nobody round, That can be found, Better than me. I heard them singing, the king is back, it's so beautiful, the rhythm I created makes you, unattainable, a million miles away from me You said your name is Flame Tongue, remember your name is King, but listen to me, find something to do quickly, sit on the side and cool off, the real king never needs to flaunt himself, only chickens fighting each other love to build archways in the circle of friends."

Finally, Cheng Cheng tilted his head:

"skr~" At this moment, the scene!

After listening to Wan Cheng's singing, everyone was stunned!

The mouth is so big that it seems like it can fit a whole egg in it!

No?

what happened?
How come Cheng Cheng is so quick-witted?
And the most outrageous thing is that Cheng Cheng’s quick tongue sounds even stronger than a tongue of fire!
And it’s not even the slightest bit stronger!
It's a complete beating!

Correct!
That’s right, it’s definitely a huge win!

The fast-talking part that Huoshe just sang was very powerful, with complex pronunciation and rhyme. Almost no one in the Chinese rap circle could sing it at that speed, not to mention that he was improvising on the spot.

From this point of view, it is not unreasonable that Flametongue is the most popular contestant.

But the question is, isn’t Cheng Cheng improvising?
His last part was clearly improvised in response to the fast-talking lyrics of Flame Tongue.

And the flames are fast, but he is even faster!
The flames are complex, but he is even more complex!
Moreover, it is mixed with Chinese and English, which increases the difficulty to a certain extent.

The most important thing is that Cheng Cheng’s pronunciation is so clear!

Even without subtitles, everyone can hear what he is singing!
On the stairs, Emily's eyes lit up and she was stunned: "No? So fierce?"

Li Haoyu couldn't believe it either. Before this, they didn't think Cheng Cheng could rap, but unexpectedly, they were completely slapped in the face!

Shen Jie and Yao Wei looked very proud.

They just know that there is no music that their boss cannot handle.

What is rap?
Pop, rock, folk, opera, any kind of music form, their boss is proficient in it, so why is he not good at rap?
Still crushing!

Still a dimensionality reduction attack!

Backstage, Shi Jing said with emotion:

"I really underestimated him. I haven't been to the mainland for more than ten years. I didn't even know about it. How could such a monster appear in the mainland?!"

Xie Duo also said:

"Director Cheng is much better. His strength lies not only in his fast speaking skills, but also in his sense of relaxation. Brother Shi, did you notice that when Director Cheng sang this part, it was very easy and effortless. He could even sing faster, but his tongue was already at its limit and his face was red from holding it back."

Shi Jing nodded:
"I found out. It's not an exaggeration to say that it's a crushing defeat."

On the stairs, Huoshe's expression was very unnatural, with turbulent waves rolling in his heart, as if he had not yet woken up from Cheng Cheng's quick mouth.

Cheng Cheng ignored the reactions of the people present and went straight to the point, singing:
"On the journey of dreams,
I left my hometown.

Luggage on shoulders.

Carrying dreams for the future,

I am just like you.
Also from afar,
Doing ordinary work,

Wandering outside and missing home,

How many people hope that
my own life,
I returned to reality.

Continue to solve my food and clothing problems,

I was told by others that

And was laughed at by others,

But I have never been defeated by reality! "

On the stairs, the rapper couldn’t close his mouth because Cheng Cheng sang so well!
This song is so good!
They can tell the difference between good rap and bad rap.

What is bad rap? It is not popular enough, it is not musical enough, sometimes it rhymes just for the sake of rhyming, and the lyrics are full of cars, women, money, and contempt.

And what about Cheng Cheng’s song “Floating to the North”?

It has both thematic depth and emotional tension, the flow is smooth and compact, the double rhymes and sentence-end rhymes are natural, the fast-paced pronunciation is matched with dense drum beats, and it flows smoothly from beginning to end!
There is no doubt that this is definitely a good rap, and it will also be a rap that will be sung very widely!
One rapper slipped down the stairs and was caught by another rapper.

He kept repeating:

too strong!
too strong!
He was incredible:

Is Cheng Cheng really so good that even if he crosses over to rap, is that his ceiling?

And then, something even more shocking happened.

When it comes to the chorus, Cheng Cheng goes all out:

"I drifted to the north~
Don't ask me about my hometown.

The towering ancient city walls,

Can't stop the sadness.

I'm floating towards the north~"

In an instant, the rappers present felt a strong electric current rushing up along their spine, rushing through their bodies, causing a series of fine goose bumps that spread from their scalps all the way to the soles of their feet.

Emily subconsciously covered her mouth, her eyes widened, and she stared at the godlike figure on the stage without blinking.

As soon as the chorus came out, she felt——

It’s soulful!
I was completely immersed in it and couldn't extricate myself.

The same goes for other rappers. Even though they may still have a bit of stubbornness in their hearts that they don't want to admit, at this moment, facing Cheng Cheng's explosive stage performance, they have to wholeheartedly admit it.

Cheng Cheng, this place has completely blown up!
No wonder, no wonder Cheng Cheng would host the show "Tianxia New Rap".

It turns out that he can really rap, and he knows rap better than most people present!

However, backstage, Jiang Nan didn't seem surprised at all.

Then, Cheng Cheng continued to sing:
"With a heavy bag on my shoulders,

Full of melancholy,
It is also the last hope.
I dream ahead.
The towering ancient city walls,

Can't stop the sadness,
A place far away that can't be returned
Where is my dream?

Wherever we float,
"

Until Cheng Cheng finished singing the last line:
"If you have a dream,

Let go and chase,
Because only struggle,

Only then can you change your destiny and peace."

At this time, the music stopped and the whole place fell silent. It was not until more than ten seconds later that enthusiastic cheers and whistles were heard!

They didn't call him Cheng Cheng, but another name:
"Supreme Demon Dragon Emperor!"

"Supreme Demon Dragon Emperor!"

"Supreme Demon Dragon Emperor!"

They shouted at the top of their lungs, as if it was only at this moment that they truly recognized Cheng Cheng's title! They recognized that Cheng Cheng was the Supreme Dragon Emperor of the rap world! (End of this chapter)
