This star just wants to make more money

Chapter 168 Let Them Feel the Power of the Number Monster
The student classification is just as its name suggests.

Each student will perform again and receive a grade ranging from A to D.

Group A students represent promotion and rewards, Group B students represent promotion, Group C students represent promotion but will be punished, and Group D students will enter the elimination sequence.

Of course, before the competition begins, there will be the first wave of mentors to teach.

It is also the first stage to test the quality of students and mentors.

In order to ensure a certain degree of fairness, mentors in their own group cannot participate in the scoring process when students are scored. At the same time, the highest and lowest scores will be removed from the final statistics.

This is the best way to avoid offending both sides.

After the host briefly introduced the rules, he continued, "Next, the students will be randomly assigned... If you want to change the tutor group, you need to show good performance. Come on, everyone!"

The screen scrolled one last time and the final grouping was completed.

Because there was no particularly perfect or weak combination among the mentors this time, the expressions on the students' faces did not fluctuate much.

Theoretically, the Zhou Yanliu combination is the strongest, but there is a small regret because of Zhou Yanliu.

Many people feel that the combination of Xu Feng and his lineup is held back by Bai Yao, and in the end it is likely that the team will be worse off than Xu Feng working alone.

The host raised his hand gently and said, "Well, the audition stage is officially over. Please follow me, mentors and students."

Next, it’s closed shooting.

As they walked, the host also introduced the rules for the next round.

"Each group will have half a day to confirm the repertoire they will perform."

"Because time is limited, each group of students only has one chance to sing a song together."

“After the performance, the instructors will give students scores based on their performance… Each group will have their own room as a practice room.”

"Based on the overall performance of each group, each group will be assigned to a different practice room, and the students will also be assigned to dormitories with different environments. For a better environment, everyone should work harder."

The environment and size of the practice rooms are indeed different, but for the sake of each instructor's face, the difference is not particularly large.

The main purpose is to give the audience a better sense of anticipation.

Of course... the students don’t have this treatment. The dormitories assigned to groups with good performance and groups with poor performance have very different environments.

After all, if a student who performs excel in a group is dragged down by other group members and has to live in a poor dormitory, it is the best excuse to start a fight.

It’s all for the show effect!
After finishing speaking, the host was about to let each group go into their respective rooms, when suddenly, not far away, the chief planner and director He Chen pushed the door and walked out.

The host pretended to be surprised: "Director?"

"Dear instructors, dear students..." He Chen finished speaking, then glanced at the camera lens, as if signaling to the audience, "and all the national music connoisseurs, good afternoon."

"This is "My Home Court" sponsored by xx Dairy. At the same time, we would like to thank Meisha Technology... and others for their support."

After saying these polite lines, the director glanced at each group and a smile appeared on his face.

"I am very pleased to see so many new stars emerging in the Chinese music scene."

After hearing this, even the most confused people realized that something was going to happen.

As expected, He Chen's tone changed immediately.

"But... before this variety show was held, we said that this is a variety show with unprecedented mentor participation, which not only tests the students, but also the mentors."

“A mentor is someone who leads by example.”

"So after an urgent discussion among our professional staff, we decided to add an extra segment to the first episode."

Come on... I guess you guys have already discussed it.

But that's what variety shows are like.

All the mentors present had participated in variety shows several times and were not surprised by such things. Some of them even nodded in cooperation.

Of course, some young students who didn’t know the truth were a little excited.

Do mentors also need to participate deeply in variety shows?

I don’t know what the deep involvement method is?
He Chen quickly answered their questions: "Originally, we planned to randomly assign songs to each group, and the order of performance of each group was also randomly assigned, but... just now, we overturned this decision."

"We decided to let the mentor groups give a performance before everyone else."

"The songs sung by the mentor group are the songs that their students will sing, and the performance of the mentors will directly determine the order in which the groups will appear!"

As soon as these words were spoken, there was an uproar.

Before scoring, the mentors have to sing the song first... and the quality of this singing actually determines the order of the group's performance!

It’s just as the director said, the mentors are deeply involved in this variety show and have a great influence on the outcome!
If the instructor chooses a bad song, or the song he chooses is not suitable for the group members...it may cause a series of negative reactions.

If the instructor himself does not perform well, the students will probably not be convinced.

It's a bit nervous and exciting.

In short, the person who designed this variety show really put a lot of thought into it.

After introducing all the rules, He Chen clapped his hands and said, "Well, all teams, go back to your lounges and start getting ready!"

Wow!

The countdown is calculated in seconds, and they cannot waste any time.

Soon, Xu Feng and Bai Yao brought their students to their exclusive practice room.

As soon as they entered the room, the two instructors naturally sat at the front, while the students stood below.

"Teacher Xu Feng!"

"Good afternoon, Teacher Xu Feng."

"Hello, Teacher Xu Feng..."

"..."

Seeing that these students greeted him respectfully one by one, Xu Feng was more or less not used to it.

I'm used to being scolded online, and even my fans usually interact with me about my condition...

It is rare to be truly respected like this, even if it is just superficial respect.

Many of the students were much older than Xu Feng, yet they were so respectful. To be honest, Xu Feng also felt it was a bit weird.

The most important thing is... there are obviously two instructors.

Bai Yao was still there, but most of the students just greeted Xu Feng.

It’s not that they deliberately wanted to humiliate the other mentor, but her presence was indeed not strong and she was young, so many people subconsciously ignored her.

However, there are still a few students who pay more attention.

"Hello, Teacher Xu Feng, Hello, Teacher Bai Yao."

"Hello, teachers."

One of them is called Qin Daoqiu, who is the student arranged by the program team when they signed the contract with Xu Feng.

Originally Xu Feng thought that this person with connections was just so-so, but judging from her performance just now and her current behavior, she is still a pretty good person.

"Hello." Xu Feng nodded.

"Good afternoon, everyone." Bai Yao had long known her position, and there was not much embarrassment on her face. She was even worried that others might not recognize her, so she introduced herself, "I am Bai Yao."

Girl, you really have a good attitude.

Before the two instructors continued speaking, a student who was more active in the atmosphere raised his hand to ask a question.

"Two mentors, what song are we going to sing this time?"

The other students also seemed very excited.

Are you kidding? When you are in the same group with Xu Feng, are you still worried about not having songs to sing? Are you still worried that the songs you sing will not be good?

Isn't this a simple matter of crushing other groups, getting the best practice room, and living in the best big house? Xu Feng glanced at his phone, thought about the requirements given to him by the program team, and then glanced at Bai Yao.

"Teacher Bai Yao, do you have anything to say?"

It’s not that Xu Feng is polite... The main reason is that even if Bai Yao’s level is at the bottom among the tutors, she is still much better than Xu Feng.

To be honest, Xu Feng is still a little unsure about how to teach the students.

So he planned not to do anything fancy, but just bring out the best songs and use his best performance to prove his point.

No matter what skills he has, he will be crushed in the face of absolute strength.

The scoring for variety shows like this is not just a test of singing skills, so song selection is very important.

As long as the song is great, we don’t have to worry about how strong our opponents are.

Bai Yao, who had already planned to be an invisible person and was prepared to do her best to cooperate with Xu Feng, was a little flattered... This is a genius composer!

This is Xu Feng, the arrogant one who dared to defy the bigwigs in the circle when he just debuted, helped the queen write her famous songs, and dared to ignore his fans.

Asking for my opinion in advance?

As a half-academic, she does have her own ideas...

However, looking at Xu Feng's expression, the expectations of the students below the stage, and the cameras in the practice room pointed at everyone, Bai Yao still backed off.

What if I said something wrong?
What if my opinion is different from that of Boss Xu Feng?
Isn't it embarrassing...

It would be better to calm down first, follow Teacher Xu Feng and improve your own abilities.

Don’t think of yourself as a mentor, think of yourself as a student!

Bai Yao determined her central idea, swallowed all the things she wanted to say and the opinions she wanted to raise, and shook her head vigorously: "Teacher Xu Feng, go ahead."

Xu Feng was a little disappointed when he saw that his teammates did not express any opinions.

I really have to rely on myself, I feel a little weak...

Xu Feng sighed softly, turned around and said, "Well... because the order of appearance is calculated according to the number of students after the audition, we are the last and second to last, so we can only go on stage last."

"As your mentor, I will not hide anything. I plan to release a new song this time... As the saying goes, one step faster leads to faster steps. As long as we can gain an advantage in the first competition, we can accumulate potential energy for the next competition."

“It’s also called snowballing.”

The other students couldn't help but cheer.

"Oh my god! Teacher Xu Feng's new song!"

“Another new song, another new song!”

"It's stable, it's stable. Once Teacher Xu Feng makes a move, there will be no room for others to perform."

"I'm already thinking about which number we should play next."

"No way, so conservative? I'm already looking forward to what the environment of the number one dormitory will be like, and you're still thinking about which one will appear first, which is such a low-level fun?"

"Hahahahaha!"

"Sure enough, following Teacher Xu Feng is a safe bet!"

"..."

In the practice room, there were the students' laughter and joyful chatter.

Now that Xu Feng has released a new song, how can others compete with him?
At best, only Zhou Yanliu's combination can pose a little threat.

But, it's just a little threatening.

Xu Feng had already opened the system panel at this time and was searching through his music library.

It seems that none of them are very stable.

The requirements for the top five in this program are not low, and Xu Feng has no experience in teaching others.

Just in case, I still have to come up with a more powerful song.

Then adjust it according to the situation later.

【Extracting...】

[Congratulations to the host for getting...]

After five draws, Xu Feng's eyes lit up.

[Congratulations to the host for winning the song "A Song Not Made for Anyone", this draw costs 10 points]

This song is okay!

The singer of the original song is even called a walking human record player.

It's definitely enough to deal with this kind of variety show.

Xu Feng didn't think much about it and immediately decided that this was the song.

He took out the USB drive from the system, turned on the computer in the practice room, and copied the audio file over.

Bai Yao also clenched her fists and looked at Xu Feng excitedly.

As long as you are still in the Chinese music scene, no one would not look forward to Xu Feng's new song.

"Wow! Teacher Xu Feng came prepared."

"What do you mean by 'come prepared'... Mr. Xu Feng probably just kept the songs he made but never released in his pocket just in case he needs them."

Xu Feng didn't respond to the boasting too much. He handed the noise-isolating headphones to Bai Yao and said, "Time is tight. I'll sing it for everyone first so that everyone can get familiar with it. Teacher Bai Yao, please listen to it first so that we can cooperate on the stage later."

Wow, mentor benefits!

Bai Yao happily took the document: "Okay!"

Xu Feng pressed the play button.

The head also followed the accompaniment, with slight rise and fall.

“Forgive me for this song, which is not written for anyone. It feels like the night outside the window.”

"..."

The students and Bai Yao also showed astonishment on their faces.

"Open your mouth and kneel!"

“Another divine song has appeared.”

"The first two sentences are amazing! So nice to hear. This is the strength of Teacher Xu Feng. We will definitely take off."

"..."

Soon, Xu Feng's singing reached the chorus stage.

"Dreams water your efforts, and love pushes them forward from behind."

"When I looked up, I realized that I might have forgotten someone..."

"..."

The sudden and soaring high notes, and continuous high notes, are undoubtedly a huge challenge for male singers!

But Xu Feng...his pronunciation and tone are so steady, there's not a single flaw to be felt!
After hearing this, the students only had one feeling in their hearts.

Stunning!

so amazing!

However, no one noticed that Bai Yao, who was also sitting in the mentor's seat, suddenly lost the happy expression on her face and frowned deeply.
