I really don't want to be the top streamer anymore

Chapter 118 It’s the end of the year, and I can get enough awards just to win

In fact, at the beginning, the director Wu Youxue wanted Xu Kong to make up for the missing performance alone.

But later I suddenly discovered that even if Xu Kong participated in one less episode, his votes seemed to be enough to qualify him for the finals.

And if he performs one more show alone, Xu Kong's votes will be far ahead.

Is there any big suspense in this final?
So we just went ahead with the finals process based on the number of votes.

Of course, he asked Xu Kong, and Xu Kong agreed.

"Xu Kong is short of a ticket for one period. This is not fair!"

"Yes, I think Xu Kong should perform again."

"I agree!"

Many audience members at the scene began to discuss.

Of course, everyone knows what the idea is.

I just wanted to see one more performance of Xu Kong.

Of course Wu Youxue would not agree.

He did know that this decision would probably cause quite a stir once it was announced.

And they are all directed at their program team.

But necessary rhythm is sometimes also a condition that can bring heat.

These are all within controllable range.

According to the rules, it was indeed unfair that Xu Kong lost a ticket for a performance.

But considering Xu Kong's supermodel strength, this actually added some suspense and highlights to the final.

After the recording of the program was completed, Xu Kong rushed directly to the airport.

Originally, he planned to stay in Xingcheng for one day before leaving, but Su Zhi said she would not come to record the show, so there seemed to be no reason for him to stay another day.

The next day after returning to the crew, the filming of "Legend of Sword and Fairy" resumed.

The overall progress is not slow, but some annoying things will pop up from time to time.

"Really not going to touch it?"

Shang Yuxin asked in a rather provocative tone.

"You're almost there."

Ignoring the other party, Xu Kong continued to eat the lunch in front of him.

He found that he had defined commercial green tea a little too early.

The other party was indeed very serious when filming, even much more serious than Song Youyou who often couldn't calm down and get into the role.

He demonstrated his professionalism as a professional actor in all aspects.

But during the free time of filming, as Shang Yuxin had gotten to know Xu Kong's personality better, she began to make fun of him in various ways.

This includes but is not limited to verbal teasing and physical seduction.

For example, now, Shang Yuxin lifted her skirt and gently stroked her fingers across the pair of slender legs.

Then she blinked her big eyes and called on him to try it out for himself.

"Look at you, you asked me to take pictures for you every day before, but now that I can touch you, you don't dare anymore?"

Xu gave the other person a blank look.

Not to mention that Song Youyou is still in the crew, Xu Kong definitely can't do anything rash, otherwise he'll be doomed if he's discovered.

What's more important is that if it was someone else, he might have taken advantage of it, but Shang Yuxin took advantage of it, and there would probably be a lot of trouble waiting for him in the future.

This girl is very smart, I don’t know what trap she has set for him.

"Brother Xu Kong?"

"Hey, Sister Yuxin, you are here too?"

Song Youyou's voice came.

Shang Yuxin unnoticeably retracted the long legs that she had just shown in front of Xu Kong.

"I came to ask Director Xu to help me talk about the scene in the afternoon."

Song Youyou had no doubts.

During their time on the crew, thanks to Shang Yuxin's high emotional intelligence, their relationship quickly warmed up, and they had become good sisters who could talk about anything.

Of course, because of Xu Kong's reminder, Song Youyou did not tell Xu Kong about her relationship with him.

"Brother Xu Kong, I just read the comments online. They all said that the production team was unfair and should have given you one more performance opportunity. I think what they said makes sense."

"And I really like your new song. When can you sing it for me?"

"By the way, can I go with you to the finals? I can cheer you on."

Xu Kong did remind Song Youyou, but Song Youyou is the type of person who can't hide her emotions at all.

Every time I am with Xu Kong, it seems like we have endless things to say.

He had such a strong desire to share that he wanted to tell Xu Kong all the trivial things that happened to him.

In this regard, she is at the opposite extreme from Su Zhi, who doesn't like to talk much.

Although he felt somewhat helpless, Xu Kong still answered with a smile and patience.

"Director Wu and Mango TV asked me about my decision to skip a show, and I agreed. It won't have a big impact."

"Would you like to stay backstage with me or watch the show in the audience?"

"Is it necessary to treat this guy so differently?"

Xu Kong himself didn't realize that although he always felt a little troubled, his tone would subconsciously become gentle when talking to Song Youyou.

It was impossible for Shang Yuxin not to see that Song Youyou was obviously interested in Xu Kong.

But what she was not sure about was whether the two of them really had any relationship, or whether it was just an unconfirmed relationship.

If true, it would definitely be big news.

Those netizens who are shipping couples online probably didn’t expect that what they are shipping is actually true.

"Sister Yuxin, are you going?"

After talking for a while, perhaps because she noticed Shang Yuxin was still there, Song Youyou asked a question.

"Director Xu, can I go?"

Shang Yuxin looked at Xu Kong with innocent eyes.

"of course."

Xu Kong answered with a wry smile.

In fact, when Shang Yuxin first discovered that Xu Kong and Song Youyou were a little too close, she wanted to mock Xu Kong.

She thought the other person was of the same kind as herself.

It's just a different gender.

Xu Kong was able to join Fengge and was even trusted by the company so much that it was given such a huge investment right away.

Later I suddenly realized that I had guessed wrong.

He actually really likes it?

Whether it was from how the two got along on the crew or Xu Kong's attitude towards Song Youyou, Shang Yuxin could clearly tell that Xu Kong was indeed not exactly the same as her.

I had to hold back the sarcastic words I was about to say.

There is an essential difference between the two. In the former, it can be said that Xu Kong will do anything to obtain resources.

But the latter, at most, just said a few words about Xu Kong and Song Youyou's secret love affair, which had much less destructive power.

Of course, Shang Yuxin knows a lot of secrets since she entered the industry, but she knows very well what to say and what not to say.

She had no intention of doing anything to secretly influence public opinion. After all, she was still in Xu Kong's crew, and she attached great importance to Xu Kong's drama, and didn't want anything to happen before it was broadcast.

"Why are you in a daze!"

"Pack up and get to work."

Song Youyou had already left. Xu Kong looked at Shang Yuxin who was still eating lunch in small sips, and couldn't help but remind her.

Shang Yuxin finally came to her senses at this moment.

"Director Xu, if you were as gentle to me as Youyou is to me, I think we might be dating right now."

Xu Kong waved his hand.

"Get lost! Hurry and put on your makeup!"

Xu Kong was too lazy to pay attention to the other party and picked up the call from Zhu Yu.

"Awards?"

"Okay, I'll think about it."

Xu Kong hung up the phone and clicked on the picture Zhu Yu sent him.

"what is this?"

Shang Yuxin came over curiously.

"Invitation list."

After hearing Xu Kong's words, she found that there were all kinds of organizers and so on.

"Why did you invite them?"

Shang Yuxin asked subconsciously.

Xu Kong looked at the other person speechlessly.

"What do you mean I invited them? These are the parties that invited me to receive the awards."

Xu Kong himself did not expect that as time came to the end of December, various domestic music awards would begin their so-called award ceremonies.

What surprised Xu Kong even more was that as long as the award was slightly influential, he would either win it directly or at least be shortlisted.

In Zhu Yu's words, Xu Kong has written so many new songs this year, and most of them have good popularity, reputation, and other data.

One thing that is basically certain at the moment is that it is almost impossible to completely bypass Xu Kong's name when it comes to this year's Chinese music awards.

If Xu Kong really didn't even have a single shortlist or nomination, then the authority of the organizer would most likely be questioned.

There's nothing we can do about it.

But the key point is, if Xu Kong had to go to all these award invitations, award ceremony activities, etc. by himself.

Then when it finishes in January next year, he probably won't have to do anything and will just attend award ceremonies and receive awards.

In the physical sense, it's the kind of award that you can receive so many times that your hands are sore.

Therefore, Xu Kong would definitely not go in person to attend most of the awards, especially those that are not very famous or influential.

Either the organizer sends it, or Zhu Yu arranges someone to pick it up on your behalf.

Of course, there are still a few awards that need to be accepted, and Zhu Yu has already marked out various suggestions.

In fact, the only two events worth Xu Kong's trip are the Golden Melody Awards and the Chinese Music Festival.

These are currently the two most influential awards in the country.

However, the shortlists for both sides have not yet been announced, so everything is still uncertain.

But in the current online discussions, Xu Kong has the highest voice for the Best Newcomer award this year.

Within two days, one of the Chinese Music Festivals announced the shortlist for this year's major awards.

“Best New Singer: Bai Ran, Pan Juncheng, Xu Kong.”

"Best Composition Award: Xu Kong, "Seven Miles of Fragrance"."

“Best Rock Single: Xu Kong, “Last Dance””

“Best Single of the Year: Xu Kong, “Seven Miles of Fragrance”.”

“Best Male Singer of the Year: Xu Kong.”

Everyone thought that Xu Kong would be shortlisted for many awards, but when the real list came out, it still caused quite a stir.

Including the Best Newcomer award which everyone had expected, Xu Kong was shortlisted for five awards.

And they are all heavyweight awards with quite high gold content.

He was even nominated for Best Male Vocalist of the Year.

"This should be the first time that someone is nominated for Best Newcomer and Best Male Vocalist at the same time, right?"

"Xu Kong's output this year is indeed too high. If it weren't for the balance, Xu Kong could have been nominated for more awards based on the quality of the songs he released this year."

"Although he may not win awards like Best Single and Best Male Vocalist, considering Xu Kong's age and the time he debuted, it's already pretty impressive."

"Will Xu Kong directly win the Best Male Singer award and break the record of the youngest singer in the Chinese music scene?"

As the shortlist for the Chinese Music Festival was announced, online discussions among netizens surged and the topic directly became the number one trending search topic.

The most talked-about person among them is naturally Xu Kong.

There is no way, if we have to say who has the most outstanding performance this year, it would be Xu Kong, who was originally just a traffic star but was later gradually recognized by the mainstream music scene.

Moreover, the latest episode of "Our Song" had just finished airing.

The song "I Still Miss Her" is still ranking first on various charts on the two major music platforms.

In Feiniao's live broadcast room, as he began to analyze the shortlists for major awards at this year's music festival, the number of viewers had exceeded 30,000.

It has to be said that after the "Singer" episode that caused a lot of hype, Feintiao's popularity has remained high.

Not only is the number of fans growing rapidly, but even the number of people watching live broadcasts has increased from a few thousand to over ten thousand now.

He is an internet celebrity who became famous through his reactions and sharp comments, and now he is really popular.

"No, don't be so rude. Xu Kong may not win the best newcomer award for other awards."

"The main reason is that Xu Kong has very little experience. Even if we take into account the time when he didn't write his own songs, he has only been in the industry for a year and a half."

"Besides, it's well known that the organizer of the Chinese Music Festival is good at keeping balance."

Fat Bird gave his analysis.

Of course, he also hopes that Xu Kong can directly win the Best Male Singer of the Year and become the youngest singing king in the domestic entertainment industry in one step.

But according to some unspoken rules of the entertainment industry and the nature of the Chinese Music Festival, this is obviously unlikely.

“It’s really unreasonable not to give the best single to “Seven Miles of Fragrance”.”

"Whether it's the quality of the song or the statistics of all the new songs this year, Xu Kong's song should be leading by a large margin."

"So my prediction is that Xu Kong will most likely be able to hit two out of five, or three out of five."

As Fat Bird spoke, he zoomed in on the list of nominees for Best Male Singer of the Year on the screen.

"Except for Xu Kong, the others are actually not weak either."

"For example, although Pu Fu didn't have any hit singles this year, the completeness and quality of his new album is definitely in the top three, and it is very likely to win the title of Album of the Year."

"There is also Bai Mintao, who has been nominated for several years in a row. In order to compete for the title of King of Singers, he released two albums and three EPs this year, and some of the songs received good responses."

"She Huaning is a veteran singer. I personally think his album this year is average, but it's rare for him to continue releasing new songs at that age."

"Looking at it this way, it seems like anyone could win the award?"

"That's true. The main organizers consider many factors when awarding awards, not just the songs released by the singer this year."

"Actually Xu Kong's biggest disadvantage is that he has little experience. He is a complete newcomer in the music industry. Although he has many hit singles, he does not have a complete album."

After listening to Feiniao's analysis, netizens in the live broadcast room who originally thought that Xu Kong had a great chance of winning the award also began to change their views.
