How did this star become more popular after his scandal?

Chapter 204 He is slandering me!

Hong Tao still had a smile on his face, holding a tablet in his hand, and started talking as soon as he walked in.

"Haha, I've been waiting for a long time."

His eyes swept across everyone, paused on Jiang Yu, and looked at Jiang Yu deeply.

He was shocked when he saw the result today.

Director Hong Tao could imagine how surprised the other guests would be when they learned the results of today's ranking.

"Today's ranking results are already in my hands. Everyone, please be patient. We will now go to a commercial break."

Jiang Yu and the others were used to watching Director Hong Tao naturally pick up the milk next to him and start inserting the advertisement. After waiting for Director Hong Tao's oral advertisement to finish, he smiled and calmly opened the tablet in his hand, ready to announce the ranking results of this issue.

At this moment, Sun Leyan and the others also began to get nervous. Jiang Yu could clearly feel that Shen Hongyu, who was sitting next to him, was also getting a little tense.

"Okay, I'll announce the ranking results of the debut singers first. The results of Mr. Shen's challenge will be announced later."

Shen Hongyu felt even more tormented at this moment. If the results were announced sooner, she could be free sooner. This dragging on was also a form of torture for her.

"Let me see how to announce it."

Director Hong Tao was looking at the ranking results on the tablet, thinking about how to create suspense.

"Let me announce the fourth and fifth places first."

After hearing what Director Hong Tao said, Sun Leyan and the others knew that he was going to start creating suspense.

"Fourth place...Sun Leyan, 1062 votes!"

"Fifth place... Li Peng, 1054 votes!"

When the two in the middle were announced, Sun Leyan and Li Peng breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, they weren't the last, and they hadn't been eliminated.

At this moment, only the top three and the last place have not been announced.

Director Hong Tao deliberately kept people in suspense, leaving the last and top three that everyone is most concerned about until the end.

Hu Tian's eyes fluctuated slightly at this time. He was not among these two?

Director Hong Tao glanced at Hu Tian meaningfully and continued, "Next, let's announce the sixth place..."

"Sixth place...Hu Tian, ​​1001 votes!"

When Director Hong Tao announced the last place of this episode, Sun Leyan and the others were shocked.

Hu Tian is the last one?!

While they were surprised, they recalled Hu Tian's performance in this episode. He was not in very good condition. This result, although surprising, was also expected. However, they did not expect that Hu Tian's poor performance just this time would lead to him falling to last place.

This situation is indeed somewhat surprising.

It seems that the previous public opinion storm, the severe damage to his image, and the consecutive defeats to Jiang Yu still had a great impact on Hu Tian.

Hu Tian is now the last one, and his number of votes is not very high. Shen Hongyu, the challenge singer, performed so well in this episode, so the probability of Hu Tian facing elimination is still quite high.

Now it all depends on Director Hong Tao to announce the result of Shen Hongyu's challenge.

Hu Tian's eyes flashed with surprise when he heard the ranking, but it quickly disappeared. He just sat there, speechless. Deep in his eyes, a hint of self-mockery flashed.

Are you really leaving?

"Next, the top three will be announced."

When Director Hong Tao spoke again, everyone's attention was drawn to him again. Even Park Junyeol reacted at this moment. He knew he was definitely in the top three. But he was also curious whether he would surpass the Chinese singer Jiang Yu this time.

Glancing at Jiang Yu beside him, Park Junyeol's eyes still contained a hint of arrogance and disdain.

"I should be able to surpass this Chinese singer this time."

He felt that he performed very well in this episode, and the new songs he brought were specially created by the musicians in the company he found when he returned to China.

Even in China, I am more popular than this guy and in such good shape.

After comprehensive analysis, I have the advantage and should be able to win.

"Third place... Park Jun-yeol, 1124 votes!"

"Second place..."

When Director Hong Tao announced the second place, he seemed to pause deliberately, glanced at Jiang Yu and Duo Ya, and everyone's heart was lifted.

"Second place... Duo Ya, 1254 votes!"

"First place...Jiang Yu, 1262 votes!"

At this moment, everyone was shocked, their faces filled with disbelief and disbelief.

Jiang Yu actually came in first?!
Jiang Yu actually beat Duo Ya and took first place this round?!

Sun Leyan and the others had expressions of astonishment on their faces, as if they couldn't believe the result.

Duo Ya, that's Duo Ya, the international superstar. They all had to call her a senior. From the very beginning, she had firmly held the top spot thanks to her immense popularity and talent. It was as if Duo Ya was an insurmountable mountain, weighing them down and making them breathless.

Originally, they all thought that Duo Ya would continue to dominate the field this season and win the title of King of Singers.

As a result, in this episode, Jiang Yu surpassed Teacher Duo Ya!
At this moment, everyone was surprised. This was the first time since the start of this season of "Singer"!

Duo Ya was surpassed, and a domestic singer finally took first place!
Previously, they were criticized for bringing shame to Chinese singers and were bullied by foreign guests on their own turf.

But now, Jiang Yu did it. He really surpassed Duo Ya and won the first place in this issue!

Even Hu Tian showed a hint of surprise at this moment. He looked at Jiang Yu deeply without saying a word.

He also didn't expect that this guy could surpass Duo Ya and take first place.

Hu Tian knew very well how difficult it was to surpass Duo Ya. If it were easy, they would not have been unable to do it before.

But today, Jiang Yu did it, which is truly amazing.

However, Hu Tian thought about it and felt that the new song "Blue and White Porcelain" brought by this guy in this episode was indeed of high quality. Coupled with this guy's current popularity and momentum, it seemed that this result was also expected.

Looking at Jiang Yu's young face, Hu Tian felt bitter. It seemed that this guy was really going to soar to the sky.

Perhaps in today's music scene, only Zhou Junjie can suppress him.

At this moment, Park Jun-yeol frowned when he heard the result.

Did I lose to this Chinese singer Jiang Yu again?
And this guy even surpassed Teacher Duo Ya and took first place?

No? Why are Chinese rubbish singers so famous?

Park Junyeol felt just like Hu Tian before him, having lost to Jiang Yu for the second time. He was filled with resentment. Seeing Jiang Yu surpass Teacher Duo Ya and take first place was even harder to accept.

But this is the fact, no matter how unwilling he is to accept it, he cannot change the result.

Director Hong Tao smiled and glanced at everyone. His eyes then fell on Jiang Yu and he nodded in congratulations. His eyes then fell on Shen Hongyu.

"So, did Teacher Shen Hongyu succeed in challenging the opponent?"

At this moment, everyone's attention was focused on Shen Hongyu. Hu Tian was the last one in this round. If Shen Hongyu's final votes exceeded Hu Tian's, then Hu Tian would be eliminated.

"Teacher Shen Hongyu's votes are..."

"1006 votes!"

"Congratulations to Teacher Shen Hongyu for successfully challenging the opponent!"

When Director Hong Tao announced the voting results for Shen Hongyu, Sun Leyan also took a breath.

The challenge was successful!
The next moment, she also secretly glanced at Hu Tian who was sitting over there.

If Shen Hongyu succeeds in challenging the opponent, it means that Hu Tian will be eliminated.

At this moment, Hu Tian seemed quite silent, and he hadn't finished speaking until the end of the recording. Everyone watched him leave, feeling a little dejected, but not worthy of sympathy. This guy had it all to himself. His previous incident with Jiang Yu had led to a public outcry and a major tarnish in his image. He was now competing in a boxing match with Jiang Yu, only to lose to him again and again, like a clown.

Although everyone knew that Hu Tian's loss to Shen Hongyu was due to his mental breakdown after being beaten by Jiang Yu, he couldn't blame anyone else for it; it was entirely his own fault.

However, this also made Sun Leyan and the others feel a little sad. He was a king of the world, but in the end, he lost to others because of his own mentality. And it seemed that losing to Jiang Yu had a great impact on Hu Tian. Even Sun Leyan felt that Hu Tian might not be able to accept this result for a long time, or even get over it.

Teacher Duo Ya, on the other hand, was somewhat surprised by the result, but she could still accept it. Even though she lost to Jiang Yu this time, she still congratulated Jiang Yu with a smile on her face.

The recording of the ninth episode of "Singer" has ended, and it came to an end with Hu Tian's elimination.

After finishing the recording here, Jiang Yu rushed back to Country T to shoot "Detective Chinatown".

Filming for Jiang Yu's film went quite smoothly. Even Director Chen thought it would be finished by the end of February after the Lunar New Year, as originally planned. However, judging by the current progress, it seems that filming will be finished by the end of January, before the Lunar New Year.

On this day, Jiang Yu and his team happened to be filming a very exciting scene, the one where Tang Ren and Qin Feng were wrongly accused and chased by the police.

Jiang Yu and Wang Qiang sat next to Director Chen, watching the scene in the police station between Zhang Jian's character Kuntai and Liu He's character Huang Landeng. "Cut!"

Director Chen felt that something was wrong and the comedic effect he wanted was not achieved at all. After calling cut, he spoke to teachers Zhang Jian and Liu He.

"Teacher Zhang, you can be a little more arrogant. And Teacher Liu, you can be more expressive. This scene is mainly for comedy, so we need to show the comedy effect."

The two teachers nodded and tried to regain their state and feeling, but they still felt something was wrong when filming.

At this time, Director Chen looked at Jiang Yu and asked with a smile, "Xiao Jiang, do you have any opinions on this scene?"

Jiang Yu looked at the two teachers' looks. There was nothing wrong with them. They were very suitable for the roles. It was just that their lines and some micro-expressions were not so good.

"I think this is the right way to perform it. Mr. Zhang Jian's lines can be more varied and refined, and his micro-expressions should be more present. Especially the contrast between the beginning and the end should be more fully expressed. That way, the comedy effect will be better..."

Listening to Jiang Yu's suggestions, especially his lines, everyone felt that it really had that flavor.

Teacher Zhang Jian and the others, as well as Director Chen, all looked at Jiang Yu with smiles. Director Chen patted him on the shoulder and said, "Why don't you go and set an example for Teacher Zhang and the others?"

Jiang Yu hesitated for a moment, thinking that just talking would not be so effective. Recalling Xiao Yang's scene in the play in his mind, Jiang Yu nodded.

"Teacher Zhang Jian has a more important role in this scene, so I'll try out Teacher Zhang Jian's role. Teacher Liu, please help me with the acting."

Teacher Liu He also smiled and said, "No problem."

Everyone was eagerly awaiting the outcome, having filmed with Jiang Yu for some time. They all knew that this young man was truly remarkable, not only in his acting skills but also in his command of the script. Sometimes, when they weren't quite getting the results right, Jiang Yu would offer his suggestions, and Director Chen and everyone else would be very pleased.

It can be said that Jiang Yu played an indispensable role in the smooth filming during this period. He improved the script while filming and even made some changes. And everyone thought the changes were quite good.

At this moment, Teacher Zhang Jian and Director Chen looked at Jiang Yu as he prepared to demonstrate his adaptation of the scene, their eyes full of anticipation.

Jiang Yu sat down in the same spot where Kuntai, played by Zhang Jian, had sat before. After gathering his emotions, he nodded at Liu He. Immediately, Liu He immersed himself in the role, sitting opposite Kuntai with an arrogant and complacent look on his face.

The next moment, Jiang Yu slammed the table and stood up, looking arrogant, and spoke with a strange accent.

"Huang Landeng, what do you mean? You came to my territory and arrested someone without even saying hello? And you arrested my people?!"

Huang Landeng, played by Mr. Liu He on the opposite side, immediately looked at Jiang Yu with a strange expression.

"your people?"

"Feifa!"

Jiang Yu said arrogantly, "Who in Chinatown doesn't know that Tang Ren is my henchman?"

"Ask them, who doesn't know? What evidence do you have to arrest them?"

Seeing Jiang Yu's arrogant demeanor, especially with his handsome face and the unique accent of the character Kuntai, Director Chen and the others couldn't help but laugh. However, after watching Jiang Yu's performance, they actually thought it was quite good. By changing some of the lines, body movements, and micro-expressions, the comedic effect was significantly improved.

The next moment, when the evidence was presented, Jiang Yu's face changed. From his previous arrogance, he slowly sat back in his seat, his timid and embarrassed look making many people in the crew laugh.

When Huang Landeng, played by Mr. Liu He, presented the evidence and asked Kuntai with a smile what he thought, Jiang Yu quickly changed his words.

"No, I want to make it clear here that I have nothing to do with this Tang Ren."

As soon as this sentence came out, Teacher Liu He immediately took on the role and laughed instantly.

"Didn't you say that everyone in Chinatown knows that Tang Ren is your henchman? And I heard that you're the boss behind that private detective agency?"

As soon as these words were spoken, Jiang Yu's face was filled with fear and panic. He pointed his finger at Teacher Liu He with trembling hands and shouted guiltily.

"I'm warning you not to talk nonsense. I'm going to sue you for destroying the charts. Do you know that? I'm responsible for destroying the charts!"

"He's destroying me! He's destroying me!!"

Everyone couldn't help laughing when they saw this scene. Director Chen and Teacher Zhang Jian were also amused. However, they all thought that the effect of Jiang Yu's adapted demonstration was very good.

"Haha, Xiao Jiang, your adaptation is really great. Okay! Just act it out like this, Teacher Zhang, just follow what Xiao Jiang just did. Haha, I think Xiao Jiang's adaptation is great!"

Director Chen could not hide his admiration for Jiang Yu at all. Even Teacher Zhang Jian and the others looked at Jiang Yu with smiles and admiration.

"Okay, Xiao Jiang, this is a good adaptation. Haha, just watch and see if I can perform as well as you."

Jiang Yu also smiled: "Definitely better than me."

He felt that Zhang Jian's image was a perfect match, and that his own lines and micro-expressions were better. Now that he had demonstrated it himself, if Zhang Jian could replicate it, the result would definitely be better than his own.

As expected, this scene was a complete success.

Jiang Yu sat in front of the monitor, looking at the mean and wretched look of Kuntai, played by Teacher Zhang Jian. He had to admit that some roles were really picky about the actors.

"Okay, this scene is over!"

"Everyone take a break first, we will shoot the next scene in half an hour."

……

Jiang Yu's filming progress was quite fast and everything went smoothly.

Meanwhile, back home, Director Hu had recently finalized the mentor lineup for the talent show "Tomorrow's Star," and the auditions were almost over. By the time the show officially began in early January, only a hundred contestants would be selected through the auditions.

"Finally done."

Director Hu has been busy inviting the remaining three mentors recently. Song Yuqing and Jiang Yu were already confirmed. He has recently invited many singers and artists in the industry to join the remaining three mentors, but it is the end of the year and many of them are busy and unable to make time, so they have declined.

It was not easy to get all five mentors together, and the early preparations were finished, so he could finally take a good rest. Otherwise, when the recording started in early January, he would be too busy to rest.

Penguin Video has meticulously crafted this talent show, with significant investment and a strong lineup of mentors. Jiang Yu and Song Yuqing aside, the remaining three mentors are all renowned singers. One is Shen Hongyu, a familiar face from "Walking and Singing," a popular A-lister; another is Liu Huayu, a recent idol singer; and finally, Wu Tao, a former trainee in Country H and considered the nation's premier rapper.

Among these five mentors, which one is not a popular singer or artist?

Especially Jiang Yu, who is now a top star with real strength and has even sat on the throne of the king. He has reached the throne of the king by releasing a new album. He is considered to be the one with the highest status and popularity among them.

Director Hu felt that, regardless of the other artists, just with Jiang Yu, his new show would definitely attract a lot of traffic and popularity. Furthermore, there was also Song Yuqing, the female mentor who had a special relationship with Jiang Yu.

Xiao Jiang is a really popular guy.

"The next step is to start preparing for publicity work."

Since the program is ready and will start recording in early January, the promotion and pre-production will definitely start. The show will definitely air after the first episode is recorded in January.

It was winter vacation at that time, and traffic was high. Penguin Video also wanted to use this program to increase its popularity and compete with Taochang Qiyi Video for members.

……

On Sunday, the third round of new songs from Jiang Yu's new album was released, featuring three more. Together with the previous songs, Jiang Yu's new album now has seven songs released, with the final three to be released next week.

Today, in addition to the three new songs from Jiang Yu’s new album, the three new songs from Hu Tian’s new album also arrived as promised.

Even though he had lost to Jiang Yu, he still had to release the new album songs online at the time he had previously arranged. He would not be able to release all the songs in this album.

Lin Qianqian was also keeping an eye on Jiang Yu and Hu Tian's new albums. As always, they saved the best for last, and the best songs were definitely the same.

Lin Qianqian did not go to see the three new songs that Jiang Yu had released today, but clicked on Hu Tian’s three new songs first.

Three love songs, the type that Hu Tian is best at, one is a relatively happy and perfect love song, and two are sad and bitter love songs.

After listening to Hu Tian's three new songs, Lin Qianqian felt quite good about them. Even though Hu Tian and Li Shuming had lost to Jiang Yu and become stepping stones for Jiang Yu's reign, it was undeniable that they still had the talent; it was just a matter of who they were competing with.

I can't beat Jiang Yu, but compared with other singers' works, the quality of Hu Tian and Li Shuming's works is still quite high.

After listening to Hu Tian’s three new songs, Lin Qianqian went to listen to Jiang Yu’s three new songs.

Looking at the titles of the three new songs displayed on the page, one is "Starry Sky", one is "I Still Miss Her", and one is "Long Time No See".

After listening to Jiang Yu's three songs, Lin Qianqian suddenly felt that Hu Tian had no chance of winning at all.

After losing the first two competitions for the new album, Hu Tian’s three new songs are completely no match for Jiang Yu’s three new songs in this third competition.

"Sure enough, Hu Tian lost completely."

Given the quality of the seven songs currently released on Jiang Yu’s new album, what can Hu Tian say about it?

It's said that a singer's album only has one or two hit songs, and even just one is considered a big hit. However, Lin Qianqian believes that all the songs currently released on Jiang Yu's album are likely to be huge hits.

And looking at the current new song charts, Jiang Yu has completely dominated the top spots. Whether it's the songs he performed on "Singer" or the songs from his new album, they all dominate the charts.

Hu Tian wants to fight?

What to fight with?

There's no way to fight at all.

Lin Qianqian was a little sad. Jiang Yu's momentum was too strong. He might be the winner of the Chinese Music Golden Melody Award at the end of the month.

"Perhaps Mr. Zhou Junjie is the only one who can control him."
