Chapter 170 The snipe and the clam fight
"Road to the Crown", the show invited popular idols to serve as MCs, namely Daniel and...Kim Yoona. I didn't expect to see them again so soon.
When Jin Yuner saw them, she smiled helplessly: "Rehearsal is very important, please give it your best. I was forced to come here by the company, alas."
Daniel had a good impression of Xia Xinglang, perhaps because of his kind reminder last time: "Xinglang, I look forward to your performance, come on."
It was the first rehearsal. Now I know the layout of the stage. It was designed as a hexagonal arena that is very suitable for competition. The shape is like a honeycomb. Each of the six sides probably represents a team. Xia Xinglang asked curiously: "Seniors, can you tell me some information? How many rounds will there be?"
"This is a secret." Daniel smiled, "In fact, we don't know either."
The five of them wore stage costumes, and in order to pursue a cat-like feel, they used plush wristbands and plush hats. Their leather pants were hung with chains, and they wore sleeveless high-necked tops, with a fur coat similar to a waistcoat as their outer coat. Xia Xinglang heard senior Yoona comment that they were in the direwolf style because they were so furry.
Che Zaixun really likes the fluffy decorations. He was rubbing his coat in the lounge before. Some of the other teammates were secretly watching them. Xia Xinglang felt a tingling sensation on his back. Someone was watching them. When he turned around, he saw Lin Chenglie from the Youth Group, Song Yu from Region 19, Han Fan from the Cream Group, and his teammates from his previous life on the New Moon Night. Most importantly, Yin Donghao was standing there.
From the other person's eyes, Xia Xinglang finally felt that this was the original Yin Donghao, who didn't care about anyone and said that he would give him the center, but in fact he felt that he was the center of the world.
They no longer lived together in a small dormitory, ate together, performed on the same stage, and gradually stopped sharing trivial matters. They only occasionally sent birthday wishes and exchanged a few words. Now, only their ambitions were related to each other. This was something they both understood since they entered the competition.
Miu Miu fixed his hair: "Do you want the rehearsal to be relaxed or serious?"
Xia Xinglang was going to do this in front of many people. He put his hand on the back of Miu Miu's hand and said, "Shout the slogans. Everyone, take it seriously."
He paid special attention to Che Zaixun, because Che Zaixun was the center: "Captain, shout."
Cha Jae-hoon gave him a reassuring look. He was the calmest person on the scene. Miu Miu and Li Siyu had never been on a similar competitive variety show. Seong-wolf and Kim Seung-hyeok were still nervous, wondering if their performance would surprise everyone and if they could win. But none of this mattered to Cha Jae-hoon. He played a balancing role and didn't need to say anything, just standing there.
"Who are we?" Che Zaixun shouted.
"Solis! Fighting!"
The five people raised their arms high, and the rings on their ring fingers reflected a different kind of light.
Li Siyu was still nervous because he was the one who introduced the song. Originally, this part was to be given to Miu Miu, but Miu Miu refused to sing Yin Donghao's part because it would lead to comparisons. He was trying his best to avoid anything similar to Yin Donghao and almost hated it so much that he wanted to destroy all the similarities.
Xia Xinglang and Li Siyu walked to the front, stood sideways facing each other, smiled at each other, then clapped their hands tightly.
As they high-fived, a beam of light fell between the two of them. Xia Xinglang handed the center of the stage to Li Siyu. The two turned their backs to each other, and Xia Xinglang stepped back and squatted.
"I like to do whatever I want..." He sang the high note out of the blue. Although not as steady as Dong Hao, Li Siyu tightly gripped the microphone and tried to overcome everything with his momentum. Everyone followed suit.
Li Siyu has been thinking about the meaning of Cheshire Cat. Cheshire is just the name of a county in the UK. This song is also like Cheshire Cat. It changes unpredictably and suddenly gives you a high note. You may be shocked when you hear it for the first time. Xia Xinglang thinks that this is probably the first time that Li Siyu has performed with such a mischievous mentality.
"For me, a challenge is nothing..."
The four of them sat on the floor, with one leg bent, and stood up at the same time.
Because it is a cat, the floor movements and dynamics are all displayed through dance. In fact, Xia Xinglang was thinking, how can a cat think so much? What is not defined? Majesty and domineering are all imaginations. It should be free and unrestrained.
The dark red lights and stage created a sense of danger, followed by a flickering, white light like a streak of mercury, the hot, blinding light coalescing into a storm, like a tiger in a cage roaring: Freedom!
The dull drum beats and gorgeous strings, synthesizers and drums go hand in hand without any messy impression.
They present their performance in a free and uninhibited style, with many parts of the stage being free to play. Except for a few fixed sword dances, the rest of the solo dances are unique. The rehearsal is like this, and the real stage may be another possibility. JP1 and Cheshire Cat do not have such a playful stage. Maybe they will only do this when there is a challenge.
The time in the song is different, now they feel that time is flowing faster than ever, the real cat is an instigator, a mobile man, he comforts people, fascinates people, and makes people lose their balance because of the beauty of cats, and because of this beauty, he is lovely.
Che Zaixun’s aria is very important, because he is singing: “Uncertain time/Undetermined place/I may disappear at any time…”
They did not think of recreating Xiao Yu's somersault 100%. The basic skills required to land after a somersault are not something that can be mastered in a week, so they replaced the somersault with other moves, such as the impressive "Awooo"!
When the car honked, the audience was stunned. Some were laughing, while others were in a daze.
Pretty impressive!
Kim Seung Hyuk was too embarrassed to hide. After the rehearsal, Cha Jae Hoon patted his chest confidently and asked, "How was it?"
Xia Xinglang went over and gave him a thumbs up: "Just like that!"
Everyone retreated to the backstage. Xia Xinglang did not see Yin Donghao, but instead saw a disgusting face.
On the boy band's collaborative stage two years ago, they were not getting along well with Sheng Li, who had just watched their rehearsal and was whispering with his teammates. Song Yu was a little embarrassed, but still laughed along, and Sheng Li was even more exaggerated, laughing loudly, and that laughter was intentional for them to hear.
Xia Xinglang looked over there: "What's so funny?"
Sheng Li: "Nothing, because cats are so cute."
Xia Xinglang didn't say anything more. Jin Chengxie and Miaomiao frowned, afraid that they would start fighting if they said any more.
Cha Jae-hun was very calm from beginning to end, very unlike him: "I haven't seen your performance yet, this is the one you guys want to challenge, I don't even know your name yet."
Sheng Li: "My name is——"
Che Zaixun: "Anyway, he's not as famous as us, so you don't have to worry too much, right, little wolf?"
Now it was Jin Chengxie's turn to laugh. It was also a deliberate laugh, for Shengli to hear. The two teams were intertwined. They were not interested in the other teams' rehearsals. Xia Xinglang suddenly felt a stronger tingling sensation on his back. Li Siyu and Che Zaixun quickly pulled him to the lounge.
"Psycho." Kim Seung Hyuk was about to curse as he entered the lounge, "Laugh, laugh, laugh, why don't you go record canned laughter."
"..."
Che Zaixun was obviously very tired and closed his eyes for a while. Xia Xinglang was concerned about him: "Brother Zaixun, let me give you a massage."
"Hmm." Che Zaixun closed his eyes. The high-intensity training these days made everyone very tired. After the rehearsal just now, Che Zaixun, as the main dancer and lead dancer, had the most exercise among them.
Miu Miu: "Just now, Brother Xun said it very well."
Che Zaixun said: "Don't get angry when facing this kind of thing in the future. No matter who causes trouble, the one who gets angry first loses."
Miu Miu: “Yeah.”
"When does the show start recording?" Che asked.
Xia Xinglang: "One more hour."
Che Zaixian said, "I'm going to take a nap, little wolf, you must be tired too, come and sleep next to me."
Block19 and Affirm Boys are both groups that have been around for more than two years. There is also Cream Group. Although it is a new team name, all the members are seniors who debuted six years ago. The newest ones are the remaining three, Solis, who has been around for almost half a year, Cheshire Cats, who has been around for two months, and the newest New Moon Night, who has been on the show only one month after their debut.
The stage is extended like a colosseum, there are no live audiences, and it is a completely closed studio shoot. It is not a question of the third or fourth wall because it is a hexagon, a hexagonal stage and six teams.
Kim Yoona wore a black professional suit, matching Daniel's dark suit. The two stood still, and Yoona spoke first: "Let's witness the birth of the king of the stage together."
"Road to Crown (Tiara)!"
