This star just wants to make more money

Chapter 8: Shocking
The staff finished the countdown and the show officially started live.

Meng Guang, feeling ashamed of being scolded, quickly took advantage of the situation and returned to his position.

A few minutes later, after the host on stage had completed all the foreplay preparations, several large screens in the waiting room lit up, playing the scenes from the competition.

On the big screen, several judges appeared one after another under the host's commercial flattery.

Lin Shenghuan was still wearing a conspicuous and slim-fitting green cheongsam. Her breathtakingly beautiful eyes quickly swept across the camera. After nodding to all the audience, she slowly walked across the T-stage and came to the judges' seat.

"Sister Huan is so beautiful!"

"She was just too young, and didn't catch up with the good times when physical albums were popular, otherwise she would definitely be a queen."

"I am a talented person, I don't need these false reputations."

"To be honest, Sister Huan and Xu Feng are the most beautiful pair of mentors in the show in recent years."

"Xu Feng is a fan that Sister Huan brought over from her own concert!"

"It's a pity that he chose his own original song. I guess he will fail this time."

"..."

As the live broadcast started, various comments were posted on the barrage.

Lin Shenghuan is not the most famous, but he is the most popular.

Lin Shenghuan greeted the audience with a slight smile. As soon as she sat down, she heard a very annoying voice in her ear.

Xiao Yue half-smiled: "Xiao Huan, the player under you is quite good."

The scene that just happened in the waiting room was seen by all the judges. The subordinates of the two judges who were tit-for-tat also responded tat-for-tat, and the tension immediately rose.

Little Fantasy...

As a junior, Lin Shenghuan clenched his fists, kept a polite smile, maintained his demeanor, and tilted his head slightly: "That's natural. The Yangtze River's back waves push the front waves forward. Teacher Dayue, don't you think so?"

In music variety shows, judges who serve as mentors also need to occasionally "show off their skills" to convince the contestants and the audience.

Lin Shenghuan is superior to Xiao Yue in terms of singing skills, appearance and age, but she is always inferior in various resources, public opinion and qualifications. Therefore, the two are still in a state of being evenly matched on the surface, and both are strong contenders for the title of contemporary queen of singing.

The Yangtze River's new generation pushes the old generation forward. This is not only referring to Xu Feng, but also a subtle hint that Xiao Yue's current status is not entirely based on his strength.

Xiao Yue, who was inferior in strength, froze in his tracks and decided not to continue talking about this topic. Instead, he shifted the topic to the contestants: "But your favorite student seems a little too arrogant. The path of personal originality is not so easy... You can understand this the most, right?"

Lin Shenghuan's expression remained unchanged: "I believe Xu Feng."

Xiao Yue was a little angry when he saw Lin Shenghuan's charming face: "Really? I trust Meng Guang more... His creative team has created a song just for him. Your proud student may not be able to be proud this time?"

Lin Shenghuan turned his gaze back to the live camera: "I think that instead of hoping that others will not perform well, it is better to improve my own strength. Do you think it makes sense?"

In fact, no matter what she said, she was still very worried in her heart - because Xu Feng never regretted until the end and insisted on singing the original song.

You must stand up straight... I don't want to embarrass myself in front of Xiao Yue...

At this point, the host has finished his final lines.

"Then, let's welcome the first contestant to perform!"

……

All the judges entered the stage. After the host finished his opening remarks, the staff in the waiting room said to all the contestants: "It's the same as before. You can go on stage when your name is called. The musical instruments you deposited are kept in the box behind the stage. Don't forget to take them."

"First one, Meng Guang, go ahead."

Meng Guang glanced at Xu Feng, stood up and left the waiting room, then walked onto the stage with his instrument.

He was singing a modern pop song with good rhythm and lyrics. It was obvious that he had been practicing hard during this period.

The whole song was sung without any obvious mistakes, and finally received a score of 7.5.

Maybe in other stages, this score is very average, but in the 8-to-5 elimination round where contestants play the accompaniment and sing the original song, this score is already a very good high score.

Xiao Yue was obviously very satisfied with his contestant's performance and raised his chin confidently at Lin Shenghuan.

The meaning of that look was very clear - could Xu Feng, who had to compose music and write lyrics, perform so well?
Meng Guang looked at his score, breathed a sigh of relief, and a smug smile rose unconsciously on his face: "Thank you, teachers, and thank you for your support."

After saying that, he walked briskly back to the waiting room.

He also gave Xu Feng a provocative look.

In the waiting room, the staff member wearing headphones nodded slightly and looked at Xu Feng: "Second place, Xu Feng, go on stage."

At the same time, Xu Feng's information also appeared on the big screen in the screening room.

Xu Feng was too lazy to pay attention to the clown in front of him. He stood up and took away the unpopular instrument he had chosen - the bass.

This is an instrument that looks similar to a guitar at first glance.

This instrument is also known as a "bass guitar".

Xu Feng ignored the inquiring and scrutinizing gazes from the audience, walked onto the big stage, and politely greeted several guest judges.

"Good afternoon, teachers. I am Xu Feng."

Lin Shenghuan, who was on the judges' panel, was not shy about the fact that she had a personal relationship with Xu Feng. When she saw someone approaching, she immediately picked up the microphone and asked with a smile, "Xu Feng, I still remember your performance at my concert. Can you give me a hint? Did you bring any surprises today?"

Xu Feng thought for a moment and said, "No, it's just a very normal song."

"Really?" Lin Shenghuan tilted his head slightly, "Are you sure this is not a song for someone else anymore?"

At this point, many people present laughed.

Everyone knows that in Lin Shenghuan’s concert not long ago, Xu Feng used a German song to humorously scold the Green Tea Girl - at least this is the version uploaded on the Internet now.

There are so many interesting things about this person, maybe his songs will also have stories to tell?
However, Xu Feng answered with certainty and affirmation: "Yes."

It's been so long, but she still can't forget it. It seems that my nursery rhyme really shocked Lin Shenghuan...

Yes, it was because of that nursery rhyme that the popularity of Lin Shenghuan’s concert was far ahead of other shows, so it was no surprise that she had a deep impression of it.

"You wrote the lyrics and arranged the music for this song yourself, without any help from the program's mentor team. It's very mysterious." After seeing Xu Feng, Lin Shenghuan obviously talked a lot more than before, "Can you tell me before we sing? What type of song is it?"

Xu Feng thought about it and said, "Well, it can be considered a love song."

The songs were all drawn, and Xu Feng couldn't decide what type they were.

"Oh..." Lin Shenghuan dragged out the last word, and everyone else's eyes also became more gossipy. "I'm looking forward to your performance. Please start!"

In their opinion, it is impossible for a complete song to be composed by one person in such a short time - it is estimated that when Xu Feng wrote this song, he had not yet "broken up".

The love song he wrote before they broke up was obviously related to the girl at the concert.

Young people nowadays are still too stubborn.

But these are not a big deal. As long as the quality of the song is good, it doesn’t matter what story is behind it.

Although not many people are optimistic about the quality of this original song - it is rare for newcomers in the entertainment industry to master the basic skills of singing and dancing, let alone creative ability.

Xu Feng cleared his throat, nodded to the backstage staff, and solemnly introduced: "The song I'm going to sing next is called "Ugly Monster", I hope everyone likes it!"

As soon as the words fell, the originally noisy scene suddenly became quiet, and those gossiping eyes were caught off guard by this sudden reversal.

what?
What's the name of this love song?!
