HuaYu: Superstars Starting from Super Star Avenue

Liu Mingfeng, with his distinctive hairstyle, looked particularly grim.

Lin Mo himself was somewhat surprised, but he quickly recovered and nodded:

"Okay, thank you, Teacher Zheng."

After saying that, he turned around and prepared to leave.

Perfect timing, I can catch up on the materials I didn't finish reading in my law class.

"Wait a minute." Zheng Jianguo suddenly called out to him again.

Lin Mo stopped and turned around.

Zheng Jianguo revealed a meaningful smile:

"Lin Mo, I have a suggestion."

"Why don't you temporarily join my styling team and help me transform them?"

"..."

Upon hearing this, the contestants' eyes widened in disbelief.

Students become teachers? What kind of operation is this?

Liu Mingfeng, in particular, turned green with rage. His lips moved, and he glanced at the camera as if he wanted to say something, but then swallowed it back. His expression was so contorted that it looked like he had swallowed a fly whole.

No, everyone here is a contestant, so why did you suddenly become a teacher?

Yang Zongwei was also stunned, looking at Lin Mo with a complicated expression.

Lin Youjia looked up, adjusted his glasses, and curiously examined Lin Mo.

Lin Mo himself was also taken aback.

He looked at Zheng Jianguo, who was smiling at him.

Refusing? That doesn't seem appropriate.

Agree? It doesn't seem like there's any downside to it...

"Okay." Lin Mo nodded.

"However, I don't have much professional knowledge about styling, so I'm afraid I can't be of much help."

"It's alright." Zheng Jianguo's smile became even more amiable.

"Your vision and aesthetic sense are very unique; what I need is a different perspective."

He turned to the still-shocked contestants and said:

"In the upcoming makeover phase, Lin Mo will serve as my temporary assistant."

"He has unique insights into makeup and styling. His previous 'pigeon outfit' was very trendy and even I found it very inspiring."

That was a very eloquent statement, flattering Lin Mo and giving him plenty of face.

However, what the players actually think is another matter entirely.

Liu Mingfeng smacked his pompadour with a disdainful look, while Yang Zongwei pursed his lips, his eyes gleaming.

Zheng Jianguo clapped his hands:

"Alright, everyone quiet down. Let's begin now. Lin Mo, come here."

Lin Mo walked over to Zheng Jianguo and took the notebook and pen he handed her.

Amidst the envious, jealous, and curious gazes of all the contestants, Lin Mo stood in the position of "mentor"...

The afternoon passed quietly amidst the busyness.

Zheng Jianguo's working style is very pragmatic. He doesn't use any fancy theories; instead, he gets directly involved and acts as the contestants' fashion consultant.

Lin Mo followed beside him, mainly playing a support role.

Occasionally, when Zheng Jianguo asks, "What do you think?", he offers some additional opinions.

This gave Lin Mo the feeling of recording "Detective Dee".

However, his advice was spot on.

They kept making suggestions and improvements until after 8 p.m. before everyone had a complete makeover.

Many contestants were pleasantly surprised by their new looks.

Aside from a few female players, the biggest changes have been seen in Yang Chong Wei and Lin You Jia.

At Lin Mo's suggestion, Yang Zongwei shaved off his long hair and bangs, revealing his forehead.

Although she couldn't change her appearance, she still looked much fresher.

Lin Youjia changed into a school uniform-style outfit, and most importantly, her face looked much cleaner.

Of course, there were also a few like Liu Mingfeng who were clearly dissatisfied with the suggestions, but dared not speak out because of the cameras and Zheng Jianguo's status.

The original recording of the official competition was scheduled to begin at 6 p.m., but due to the styling process taking longer than expected, coupled with scheduling issues at the TV station's studio, the contestants were not notified until after 10 p.m. that they could enter the backstage area of ​​the studio to wait.

The official recording won't start until 11 o'clock.

The long wait has worn down many people's patience.

As mentioned earlier, the contestants of the first season of "Super Star Avenue" were like little white rabbits who had wandered into the jungle. They had no idea how popular the show would become or how their identities would change.

Meanwhile, complaints began to rise in the backstage rest area.

"What's going on? We've been waiting this long..."

"I'm starving! Aren't they even going to provide a late-night snack?"

"I'm so tired, I want to sleep..."

"I have class tomorrow!"

In contrast, Lin Mo was much calmer.

This world is just a giant makeshift operation.

It's normal for CTV to record more than just "Super Star Avenue".

Just as calm as him were the judges on the show.

Yuan Weiren, Yang Pei'an, Ma Zhaojun, Zuo An'an, and Zheng Jianguo, the stylist mentor who had just finished his work, were sitting in the judges' rest area, chatting and drinking coffee.

They are all veterans in the industry and are used to unexpected situations during program recordings.

Yuan Weiren saw Lin Mo come out from backstage for some fresh air and waved to him:

"Lin Mo, come and sit down."

Lin Mo walked over and sat down in the empty seat next to Yuan Weiren.

"How's it going? Getting impatient waiting?" Yuan Weiren asked with a smile.

"Our line of work is just that irregular; we often have to stay up all night."

"I used to write songs and often stayed up until three or four in the morning, so I'm pretty good at staying up late."

He pointed to Yang Pei'an beside him:

"Brother Pei-an is even more amazing. He used to sing in bars, often until dawn."

Yang Pei-an is a relatively new artist; he was born in 71 and released his first album in 05.

"I want to fly up to the sky and stand shoulder to shoulder with the sun..." is from one of his songs.

He seemed to be in good spirits, and upon hearing this, he smiled and said:

"I'm used to it, but young people should still pay more attention to rest."

He's already thirty-six years old this year, and looking at these contestants in their teens and early twenties, he really looks like a younger brother.

Well, except for that guy named Yang something-wei, who seemed a bit like a peer to him.

Lin Mo nodded:

"Teacher Yuan, irregular work and rest schedules are not good. You need to take care of your health."

"Okay, okay," Yuan Weiren waved his hand, completely taking it as a polite remark from a young person.

"Among so many contestants, I see you are the only one who is calm and not impatient at all."

"There's no use in rushing," Lin Mo said honestly.

Yuan Weiren smiled, his eyes narrowed, then, as if suddenly remembering something, he became interested and lowered his voice to ask Lin Mo:

"I heard from the production team that you're planning to sing an original song today?"

"What kind of song is it? A love song? Or something like 'Nanshan Nan'?"

Lin Mo glanced at him and uttered two words: "Keep it a secret."

"Hey!" Yuan Weiren's appetite was whetted, and he was itching to know what was going on.

"You're keeping me in suspense? I'm really looking forward to your new work!"

He was indeed very interested in Lin Mo's works.

The melody and artistic conception of "Nanshan Nan" left a deep impression on him.

He was eager to see what other unique things this young man could come up with.

Just being able to write songs only gets you a background composer at best.

For example, him, and Zuo An'an.

Simply being able to sing is enough to step into the spotlight and become a good singer.

If you can both write and sing...

Several names involuntarily flashed through Yuan Weiren's mind:

Zhou, Wang, Tao, Lin...
