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

Chapter 306 Xu Kong's new song, the king of songs is shocked

After a psychological struggle and the instigation of her agent, especially her agent's various ideas that seemed to be from her perspective, Su Yuwei still planned to ask a little.

If Xu Kong really had some relationship with Su Zhi, then she could give up completely.

"My relationship with Su Zhi?"

At the rehearsal the next day, Xu Kong was stunned when he heard the questions Su Yuwei asked him after she took the initiative to find him.

But of course Xu Kong couldn't tell the truth.

Not only Su Zhi, but even Song Youyou, in fact, let alone making it completely public, even most people in the circle or around them didn't know about it.

Although he could see it, Xu Kong still did not admit it too directly or do anything out of line in public.

After all, Xu Kong didn't distrust the people around him, such as his confidants like Guo Zihao.

There is simply no need to do so, and more importantly, who to disclose it to is a very important question, and there seems to be no solution.

The only thing we can do is to continue to maintain the current situation.

……

"She's a good friend. I think she's one of the few people who can understand my music..."

Xu Kong's words were rather ambiguous, but overall, the appearance of the word "friend" obviously made Su Yuwei's previous sadness disappear.

"I understand. Thank you, Mr. Xu Kong!"

Looking at Su Yuwei who turned around and walked away with a happy step, Xu Kong was confused.

When the other party asked this sudden question, Xu Kong thought that there was something he wanted Su Zhi's help with.

However, if Su Yuwei really becomes an artist of Fengqing Entertainment in the future, it would be nice to let the other party collaborate with Su Zhi once or twice.

Although Su Yuwei's singing skills are still not as good as Su Zhi's.

But his vocal conditions are indeed quite promising, and Xu Kong also has some songs that are indeed more suitable for the two of them to sing together.

……

The final stage of "Singer" was rebuilt.

The biggest feature is that this performance is held in a larger venue.

The number of spectators that can be accommodated has increased directly to about five or six thousand people.

It’s almost enough to host a medium-sized concert.

Of course, the Mango TV program team would definitely not miss such an opportunity to increase extra income.

Therefore, the audience this time were not screened and actively invited by the program team, but the ticket purchasing channel was released in advance.

The tickets were sold out in just a few minutes.

Xu Kong doesn't care much about these.

All he needs to do now is to get familiar with the stage.

This time the stage is different from previous indoor venues, it adopts a four-sided stage.

That’s right, although the total number of spectators is estimated to be only four or five thousand.

But the rare four-sided platform was still adopted.

Generally speaking, it is more common for performing singers to have the stage facing the audience.

As for the four-sided channel, on the one hand, it is for the program team to coordinate and improve the live broadcast effect of the finals.

On the other hand, it is also a test for the singer himself.

Because of the four-sided stage, for the sake of the live performance effect, it is unlikely that the singer will face the audience in one direction throughout the entire performance.

In this way, the audience behind will only see the singer's back.

Although there is a huge screen above the stage broadcasting the event in real time, the experience for some of the audience in the front row will still be quite different.

Therefore, the singers’ movements during performances are even precise to the extent of how many seconds they stand in a certain position.

……

However, for Xu Kong, his performance experience in this life cannot be said to be rich.

But he had performed it once before, during the Beijing TV New Year's Eve Gala on Simiantai.

Combined with some experience from my previous life, I was able to adapt fairly quickly.

It took nearly two hours, mainly discussing with the program team the movement of the stage and how to coordinate with the live camera.

A complete rehearsal will probably be three times.

"There's no suspense anymore..."

Jian Junfang, the singing king who was also rehearsing with Xu Kong on the same day, couldn't help but speak at this moment.

This was the first time he heard Xu Kong's advance rehearsal stage for the show.

Originally, he really wanted to save Xu Kong's new song for the finals until the day of the official live broadcast.

But in the end, since we were right there, we couldn’t just plug our ears and not listen, right?
Plus, I was too curious to begin with, so I ended up watching Xu Kong's several rehearsal performances carefully.

Originally, Jian Junfang was quite indifferent to the show "Singer", and all he wanted to do was to perform well.

However, after Xu Kong joined, Jian Junfang couldn't help but feel a little impatient.

For this final, I hesitated for a long time, and finally chose a new song that I had written and was ready to release.

It is still the R&B type song he is best at.

Although Xu Kong’s previous song "Ordinary Friends" did have a great impact on him.

But Jian Junfang is a veteran singer who has been popular for so many years after all, it is not possible for his self-confidence to be shattered so easily.

Therefore, Jian Junfang is still very confident about this new song.

I thought that even if I lost to Xu Kong, I wouldn’t lose that much.

Until he finished listening to Xu Kong's performance in its entirety just now, he really couldn't deceive himself. If he were to vote for Xu Kong's new song this time, he would vote for the other party without hesitation.

"Forget it, why should I worry so much?"

Jian Junfang finally smiled and shook his head.

If it were someone else, especially some of his long-time competitors, Jian Junfang probably would find it difficult to accept it in a short period of time.

But of course he didn't feel dissatisfied at all when hearing Xu Kong's words.

Xu Kong had conquered him with music long before, so at this moment he was more amazed that Xu Kong seemed to have written another song that was big enough to cause a sensation in the music world.

……

"You didn't go today?"

After returning to the hotel, Jian Junfang happened to see Lan Shu who was in the hotel.

"I rehearsed it yesterday."

Lan Shu answered normally.

The singers’ rehearsal times for this final were separate.

The main reason is that everyone needs to determine the stage positioning and camera shots, as well as adjust the on-site lighting, photography and other equipment in real time according to the situation of each singer on stage.

"I thought that since you joined Xu Kong's company, you should be more interested in his stage in the finals this time."

"Wait, you haven't heard this before?"

Jian Junfang knew long before that Lan Shu had joined Fengqing Entertainment.

He was quite surprised when he heard the news.

The main reason was that Lan Shu said at that time that she had already chosen her next company, and Jian Junfang subconsciously thought that it would be a large company like Jiying Media.

Who knew that Lan Shu actually went to Xu Kong. And it wasn't Feng Ge, it was Feng Qing Entertainment.

However, the subsequent sudden popularity of Mao Zheyu from Fengqing Entertainment made Jian Junfang less worried.

After all, Xu Kong’s own company has a songwriter like Xu Kong. Even if the company is a little smaller and its resources are average, it is still worth it.

……

"I haven't seen Xu Kong much since last time."

"He seems to be busy filming his new drama..."

Lan Shu shook his head calmly.

"Then why don't you go..."

Jian Junfang knew very well, or almost anyone could guess, that although the fact that Lan Shu joined Fengqing Entertainment had not been exposed yet, it was possible for a well-known first-line singer to voluntarily join a company of the size of Fengqing Entertainment.

It seems that the only reason is Xu Kong.

"I'm still practicing the song for this final..."

Lan Shu spoke up.

Then Jian Junfang realized it.

I couldn't help but ask with a surprised tone:

"Your song for the finals wasn't written by Xu Kong, was it?"

Lan Shu nodded.

"I take this stage very seriously. Fame is secondary. The most important thing is not to make any mistakes."

Jian Junfang immediately understood what Lan Shu said.

It seems that she attaches great importance to the new song written by Xu Kong.

Otherwise, I wouldn't care so much about it.

Of course, what’s more important is that Lan Shu’s career did enter a bottleneck period very early on.

Including this time participating in the "Singer" program, although my exposure has increased a lot.

But the overall help it provides seems to be very limited.

There is no problem with Lan Shu's singing skills. What she lacks is a single that suits her and can become a hit.

The last time Lan Shu’s song became a hit was many years ago.

Although some of the later songs have been discussed a lot and the data of several albums are also good, there is a lack of a work that can completely stand out.

So this is why Lan Shu was so determined to choose Xu Kong.

Compared with resources and companies, the most important thing for Lan Shu nowadays is to find songwriters and producers that suit her.

Be able to help her tailor songs for herself.

Lan Shu treated it so seriously, it was estimated that Xu Kong's song this time was not only of high quality but also difficult to sing.

……

The finals of "Singer" are about to begin, and the discussion on the Internet is gradually increasing.

This naturally includes the promotion and publicity from the program team and Mango TV.

In addition, the most important thing is the popularity brought by Xu Kong himself, which attracted a large number of netizens to pay attention to the finals.

Xu Kong’s fans are one thing, but more importantly, Xu Kong’s popularity among the public can indeed be said to be the most exaggerated among domestic entertainment stars.

It has been quite a long time since there has appeared an artist like Xu Kong who can truly be a master in film, television and music.

Compared with some of the famous veteran Hong Kong stars in the past, this seems to be a very normal thing.

But now, with the gradual formalization of the domestic entertainment industry.

It is true that most artists have their own focus.

Although it is common for singers to make guest appearances in film and television dramas, or for actors to cross over to release songs.

But most of them are just for fun.

An artist like Xu Kong, whose songs become popular every time he releases and are widely sung, whose TV series are all hits, and whose movie has both good box office and reputation, is indeed unique at present.

This means that Xu Kong has fans from different fields, including music and movie fans.

The popularity is also frighteningly high.

Although other peers envy such huge traffic, there is no way to replicate it.

……

"I think the champion will most likely be among Xu Kong, Su Yuwei, and Jian Junfang."

"Xu Kong does have the highest chance of winning the championship, but in fact, this championship is of no use to Xu Kong right now."

"Yes, this is the first time I don't care that much about the results of the Singer competition. What I hope more is that I can hear another new song from Xu Kong this time..."

From the discussions among netizens online, it can be seen that almost everyone tends to believe that Xu Kong will win the championship.

The main reason is that in this season of "Singer", among the finalists, there don't seem to be many competitors who can compete with Xu Kong.

As a king of singers, Xu Kong is so young, and it is not certain whether his singing skills can improve in the future, but he is definitely at the peak of his career now.

The most important thing is that Xu Kong’s creative ability is completely too buggy compared to other opponents.

From the previous episodes where Xu Kong won first place even though the number was not large, it can be seen that other singers did try their best.

But I can only say that I was really unlucky to meet Xu Kong, who has top singing skills, can write his own songs, and is so young, on "Singer". In the end, I could only try my best, but still couldn't defeat him.

In this situation, losing doesn't seem shameful, but rather seems more normal.

……

"Everyone, tomorrow will be the official recording of the finals, and I will be there as a media judge."

“Although I can’t do a live broadcast, you can watch the official live broadcast, and maybe you can see me there.”

Fat Bird is currently in a hotel in Star City.

Of course, it was not arranged by the program team.

They have too many media judges, and it is impossible to arrange a luxurious hotel for each of them like the participating singers.

However, the program team also provides a certain amount of travel allowance for the media judges invited to participate.

Of course, for Feiniao now, as his self-media fans increase, the increase in income is visible to the naked eye.

At least I am no longer stuck in listening to reviews at home like before. I can now go to see some live performances every once in a while.

This has indeed changed some of Fei Niao's own views.

In the past, Feiniao gave low evaluations to some singers who were said to have good singing skills but whose singing styles were not liked.

It was not until he began to experience the charm of live performances in person that his views changed.

For example, Lan Shu, whom I didn't like very much before, was later invited to be a media judge. After listening to her performance live, I found that the appeal of many songs was completely different from when I usually listened to the audio online.

……

“Who do you support to win the championship?”

"Of course it's Xu Kong!"

Feiniao has completely stopped pretending now. His identity as the so-called leader of Xu Chui was completely confirmed when he took out a cheering card of Xu Kong himself in front of tens of thousands of viewers in the live broadcast room.
