Chapter 45 Meeting with Guests
“Is the band ready for the non-closing?”
A knock on the door sounded, and a live dispatch staff member wearing headsets opened the door to the lounge.
"I'm ready to start recording."
Liu Yunqing immediately said enthusiastically to the staff: "Okay, okay, you can play now."
"Let's go."
The staff nodded and walked to a large room arranged as a living room with the band members.
"You are the first group of guests. After you go in, say hello to the main camera, then sit on a five-seater sofa and wait for the next group of guests to enter."
"The guest in the next group is He Zishan. After she enters the venue, you have to say hello to her and take the initiative to chat. This part will be cut into the main film later. As for what to talk about, you can do whatever you want."
"Just present the most realistic first meeting situation, it doesn't matter if you are embarrassed."
Jing Bo'an raised his hand and asked with some confidence: "Which camera is the main camera?"
Sorry, I'm recording a variety show for the first time, I don't understand...
The staff glanced at him speechlessly before explaining: "After entering the door, there was a row of cameras facing the reception room. The largest in the middle was the main camera. You don't have to worry about other rockers and cameras. They will adjust the angle to shoot you."
"Okay, thank you!" Jing Bo'an scratched his head and thanked embarrassedly.
The staff nodded with satisfaction.
After passing through two corridors and a corner, they came to a double-open door that could accommodate four or five people in parallel.
"Push the door and the recording will officially begin." After giving a final order, the staff took a few steps back and reached out to signal them to enter.
Ye Weiyang took a deep breath, stepped forward with Yang Xiao, and reached out and pushed open the door with force.
As soon as I entered the door, the first thing I saw was a group of cameras facing them, as well as more than a dozen directors sitting on the ground outside the painting.
The members of the non-closing band immediately responded to the camera according to the script that had been rehearsed in advance in the lounge and greeted the camera: "Hello everyone, we are new bands will not close tonight! I am honored to participate in this "Singer and Writer" program, and we will cheer on!"
After saying hello, Ye Weiyang led the members to the only extended version of the eight sofas facing each other on the scene, and sat on them.
At this time, he and Yang Xiao and others had a common feeling.
That's embarrassment!
It was really not wonderful to be photographed by more than a dozen cameras with green prompt lights.
It’s like any move or even a little action of your own will be captured by the camera and then played to countless people.
This made them very nervous. The five of them were a little stiff, and they didn't know what to say or talk about in this scene.
In fact, Liu Yunqing had already told them that while waiting for the second group of guests to come, everyone can chat, talk about the rankings of "Stubborn" and "The First Day", etc., which can be regarded as playing songs on the show.
But, when they really entered the studio, everyone's minds had already become blank under the gaze of so many dark cameras.
They all became deaf and mute, and they didn't even know where to put their hands. Their sitting posture was as stiff as the primary school student who was in class for the first time.
"Ahem, that's that"
After sitting awkwardly for more than ten seconds, Ye Weiyang finally remembered Liu Yunqing's instructions and said quickly: "On the way I came just now, I watched the ranking of Penguin Music. Now our "Stubborn" has reached the top of the new song list!"
"Oh, right?"
"This is a good thing!"
Ye Weiyang twitched the corners of his mouth. After all, this conversation without any nutrition will be cut off after 80%...
"Dongdongdongdongdong..."
Just as the awkward atmosphere continued to rise, a knock on the door like fairy music sounded, freeing the band members from this awkward atmosphere.
Everyone turned their heads tacitly at the same time, and five pairs of eyes looked at the door.
"This door is so heavy..."
A very small and delicate girl with a cute bun struggling to push open half of the door and squeezed into the living room with difficulty.
As soon as she looked up, she met Wupian's eyes that seemed to have seen a savior, and was shocked.
"Hello...hello!" He Zishan blinked playfully and said crisply: "You are just a band that is open. Please take care of me for the first time when we meet!"
"I've heard your songs. The recent songs "Stubborn" and "The First Day" are both very good."
"I prefer "Day 1". I'll look forward to it in the rainy summer evening~ Hey!"
He Zishan said hello to Ye Weiyang and others, and sang a few lyrics of "The First Day" by a cappella, which can be said to be very considerate of them.
Although He Zishan is only 17 years old this year, she can be regarded as their senior in the music industry. At least her sense of variety shows is much better than those of Ye Weiyang, the cute newbies.
This easeful attitude made Ye Weiyang and others envious.
Puding immediately walked up and pulled He Zishan's hand, and said enthusiastically: "I have also heard of the song "Nanshan". It sounds very nice. My single has been circulating for a long time."
He Zishan became popular on the Internet with a folk song "Nanshan". At that time, the video of her singing "Nanshan" singing "Nanshan" wearing a white dress was posted on the Internet. It immediately became popular.
The innocent and cute He Zishan, holding the guitar and singing gentle folk songs, instantly killed a group of otaku and immediately became the new otaku goddess.
Moreover, "Nanshan" is indeed a very good folk song, it is just lacking in the luck of being popular.
Just as luck came, He Zishan and this song became popular all of a sudden.
Puding excitedly pulled He Zishan and sat down on the sofa next to the band that was open, chatting with her.
Pudding is someone who is passionate about her, and she can immediately give back to the other person with greater enthusiasm.
But if others are cold to her, she will be even colder.
Compared to sitting there with Ye Weiyang and others, she naturally chose to chat with He Zishan, a cute little sister.
Ye Weiyang, Yang Xiao and others looked at each other, and their faces were a little helpless. What should they do?
Fortunately, they didn't let them sit for a long time, and the other guests pushed the door one after another and walked into the living room.
Chen Lan, the veteran singer who has won the Golden Melody Awards six times and the Chinese Golden Bell Awards four times.
The program team has been wasting a lot of effort and only invited Jiang Mengying, the queen of the Golden Songs that had been in stock for six years.
A famous singer-songwriter in the new generation, known as a creative genius, Lu Yao, a well-known singer who is in his year of fighting.
Li Feifei, a popular female singer who was a talent show champion, has been in the industry for ten years and has a lot of fans.
The rapper of the eight-mile underground rap champion, one of the most famous rappers in China, Weihe, AKA Farao.
He was an online singer and was once jokingly claimed by netizens to dominate their men in junior high school. Later, he signed a contract with a music company and entered the mainstream music scene, and also made a fortune in the world.
In addition to the non-closing band and He Zishan, the eight guests who started basically cover different age groups and different music styles.
However, even the youngest He Zishan debuted half a year earlier than the non-closed band.
Therefore, every group of guests is the seniors of the band that are open.
Every time the guests enter the door, the members of the band will take the initiative to bend down and shake hands and say hello.
In Chinese culture, respecting seniors is a virtue. When it comes to recording a variety show for the first time, there must be no fault in terms of etiquette.
After the guests arrived one after another, they all said hello to each other for a while, and then they sat down one after another and looked at the director of the program team sitting cross-legged on the ground.
But the directors did not speak, but just reached out to signal everyone to look at a large screen hanging directly above the conference room.
On the screen, a big retro-style microphone suddenly appeared, and there was a red bow tie on the microphone.
An electronic synthesizer sounded very much like the Transformers' sound.
"Good afternoon, friends from the eight groups of guests!"
"Welcome to the recording site of "Singer and Writer"!"
"I am the manager of this program, you can call me Mr. Mai!"
Chapter completed!
