HuaYu: Superstars Starting from Super Star Avenue

Yuan Weiren took a sip of water and asked:

"Teachers, what do you think of this group of contestants? Have you spotted any promising talents?"

You Qiuxing shook her head and said bluntly, "To be honest, there's nothing particularly outstanding about it so far."

"That Yang Chongwei from earlier, his voice is quite distinctive, I think he's actually pretty good, it's a bit of a pity he didn't pass."

Yan Zhilin nodded in agreement.

Yuan Weiren smiled and lowered his voice, saying:

"It's alright, this is just the first round of judging."

"After all 25 people have performed, we'll have another comprehensive discussion."

"If there are really good potential, we can just bring them back."

You Qiuxing and the other person nodded in understanding.

They were just special guests for this episode; they left after recording and were not permanent judges.

Ultimately, however, this program was deeply involved in by their record label, HIM International Music.

They also hope to discover a few promising newcomers who will become junior colleagues in the company in the future.

Yan Zhilin picked up the appearance order list and glanced at it:

"The next one is Lin Mo... What's his level? Does Teacher Little Fatty remember him?"

Yuan Weiren adjusted his glasses and recalled for a moment:

"Lin Mo, I remember him."

"He has a good image, and more importantly, he's a singer-songwriter. During the audition, he sang an original song called 'Nanshan Nan,' which I liked at the time."

He paused, his tone tinged with regret:

"However, my singing skills are just average. Last time, I was eliminated in the top 50 to 25 round because of my singing skills. Today... I guess it's going to be tough too."

After listening, You Qiuxing and Yan Zhilin had a general idea of ​​what was going on.

In competitions that emphasize live performance and stage presence, good looks and songwriting skills alone are not enough to go far.

Please, this is still a singing competition at the end of the day.

Why not choose models and creators?

The ten-minute break passed quickly.

The director signaled that everything was ready.

The lights came back on, and the stage resumed recording.

Tao Zi adjusted her headset, picked up the microphone, and her professional smile returned to her face:

"Next—"

"It's contestant number 11, and the only one from mainland China, Lin Mo!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Lin Mo took a deep breath, gripped the microphone, and walked onto the stage from the aisle.

The light was a bit too bright, so he squinted.

Then, Lin Mo heard gasps and whispers from the audience below the stage.

Wow, he's so tall!

"Middle parting, and such fair skin!"

"Overalls...so cute!"

"She's really good-looking!"

Lin Mo's look today does seem rather avant-garde for this era.

It's not an exaggerated visual style.

Instead, it has a clean and refreshing academic style.

Among the contestants with permed hair, thick bangs, and exaggerated hair colors.

Lin Mo is like an oddball who wandered onto the wrong set.

Taozi also looked him up and down a few times, then teased him with a smile:

"Lin Mo, you look even more handsome today."

Lin Mo smiled generously:

"A new look, a new mood."

"Looks like you're in a good mood?" Taozi continued,

"So what song are we going to sing today? Is it another original? Our teacher Yuan still remembers that song 'Nanshan Nan' from last time."

The camera focused on Yuan Weiren, who smiled and nodded.

Lin Mo shook his head:

"No original songs today."

"Oh? What song is that?"

"Tears of the Sea"

Tao Zi raised an eyebrow, giving her an "I understand" look:

"It's an old song from ten years ago, a classic by Valen Hsu, not easy to sing."

"Then let's hand the stage over to Lin Mo!"

Applause erupted, and the lights dimmed.

A beam of light focused on Lin Mo.

He held the microphone and lowered his head slightly.

The accompaniment begins; it's a rearranged version, simpler and highlighting the vocals more than the original.

Lin Mo closed his eyes slightly, adjusted his breathing, and then spoke:

"【The Dark Night Where No One Cares】"

Two streams of salty tears streamed down her cheeks.

It's you, it's you!

[It made me wait until my eyes were dry and my heart was breaking]

......

The program stipulates that the indicator light must reach the red zone within sixty seconds to pass the challenge.

All the contestants skipped the beginning and the intro.

Lin Mo was the same way.

He started singing directly from the first two lines of the verse in the chorus.

When the first sentence was uttered, Yuan Weiren, a judge, leaned forward slightly.

As an original composer, Lin Mo's rendition of "Nanshan Nan" during the preliminary round left a deep impression on him.

This refers to the song itself, of course.

In his opinion, Lin Mo's singing skills were very average, even rather poor.

But as soon as he opened his mouth this time, Yuan Weiren felt something was wrong.

Listen to it again.

The band Power Station next to them, although also singers, were special guests and had never been here before.

So they were fine and didn't react much.

I just felt that Lin Mo's voice was very steady.

Just as they pricked up their ears, ready to listen carefully to the chorus, their eyes suddenly widened in surprise.

How could you bear to let my tears flow into the sea?

The feelings you've invested can never be recovered.

How could you bear to let my love flow to the sea?

Heartbreaking memories flashed by.

"It's like the tide is drowning me..."

on the stage.

After the gentle verses, Lin Mo's voice was like a thunderclap from a clear sky!

It surged upwards as if it were springing up from dry land!

The very first word hit a high note, reaching A4!

It's not falsetto, it's a genuine, powerful mix of real voice!

The sound exploded from deep within his chest, with a heart-wrenching quality!

On the judges' panel, Yuan Weiren was completely dumbfounded.

Then it suddenly dawned on him—this kid definitely held back last time!

Yes, definitely!

In the preliminary round, Lin Mo sang her original song "Nanshan Nan". Her singing technique was average, but it won with its melody and emotion.

In the elimination round where fifty contestants were narrowed down to twenty, Lin Mo's cover song exposed her shortcomings in singing skills.

At the time, Yuan Weiren felt it was a pity.

Such a promising songwriter, it would be great if his singing skills could keep up.

The results of it?

Today it just exploded on the spot!

Many professional singers can't reach this level!

He definitely hid his strength last time! Yuan Weiren was certain of it.

Beside them, You Qiuxing and Yan Zhilin from Power Train exchanged a glance, both seeing the deep surprise in each other's eyes.

As professional singers, they are all too aware of the terrifying physical demands required for this singing style.

They all turned their gazes toward Yuan Weiren.

Although he didn't speak, the question in his eyes was very clear.

Teacher Xiaopang, you call this just average singing?

On the side of the screen, Yang Zongwei's fists were clenched tightly.

He never expected that this handsome-looking boy could sing so well!

A feeling of resentment suddenly rose in his heart.

On what grounds?

Why is it that this guy from the mainland is not only so good-looking, but also sings so well?!

On stage, Lin Mo's performance jumped directly from the chorus to the bridge section:

"[Closed eyes]"

I also saw our intimacy

Tears in the corners of my eyes

Cannot wash away the pain in my heart

The vow, repeated again and again~

His voice was beautifully softened here.

The sudden shift from the explosive high notes to a subdued tone created a dramatic emotional contrast, captivating everyone's ears.

The final word "言" reached a high note of B5!

And with a powerful, drawn-out cadence lasting several beats, it seemed as if it wanted to tear off the ceiling of the studio!

The judges on the panel finally snapped out of their shock.

Without a second thought, the stylist pressed the perfect score button in front of them!
