Chapter 83 Variety Show Popularity Ranking

 With the successful experience of the first episode, Lin Zhibai no longer has to worry too much about the recording of the second episode of "I Am a Singer", and can free up some of his attention to spend some time with Night Hou.

 Similarly during this Spring Festival.

The latest issue of Nason Bookstore's "Mystery and Suspense" has been released, but there are too many topics during the Spring Festival, so the discussion is not as high as last month.

 Same as before.

 This issue of "Mystery and Suspense" publishes two short stories by Bu Yehou at the beginning and end respectively.

 The article is called "Closet".

 One article is called "Seven Rooms".

 After reading the two short stories of No Night Hou, readers will have the same feeling: they are back to the original starting point, standing blankly in front of the magazine.



  Gloomy!

The Nightless Lord, who seems to be the spokesman of darkness, is back.

Especially the story "The Closet" makes me go crazy after reading it.

  In comparison, "Seven Rooms" seems to have become easier to accept.

There are even many people who highly praise "Seven Rooms". Although the story itself is not strong in storytelling, it is better than the description of the atmosphere in the text, and it is also the best description of psychological fear in Night Hou.

 Academy.

 As the topic of the Spring Festival has gradually passed, there has been more discussion about the two stories in this issue of Evernight Hou.

 “These two stories are so scary!”

“After reading “Poems of Xiangyang”, everyone thought that Hou Ye was going to change, but in this issue, we discovered that he had become even more perverted than before!”

 “The darkness is a bit too much.”

 “Is this a small reward for myself after writing "Poems of Xiangyang"?"

“As a pervert lover, I feel a little uncomfortable after reading this story, but the more I feel uncomfortable, the more exciting it becomes. What’s going on?”

 “The people upstairs are addicted to food.”

 “This guy’s writing skills are really strong.”

“It scares people to the point of breaking into a cold sweat, but the story of Nightmare is still exciting.”

“Since Nightlord is so prolific, why not just publish a collection of short stories so that everyone can read them all at once.”

 Just right.

At this time, Lin Zhibai was also looking through the reviews of the mystery and suspense section of the academy. When he saw someone mentioning a collection of short stories, he couldn't help but feel something in his heart, as if this could be possible.

 After all, Lin Zhibai has been serialized in "Mystery and Suspense" for four months.

These four months have allowed Bu Yehou to successfully accumulate quite a good reputation in the industry. Readers who like this dark thriller style basically know him.

Yi Yi, a collection of short stories by Lin Zhibai, is already halfway through serialization.

It should be Lin Zhibai's choice to maximize the interests of Lin Zhibai by collecting and publishing the remaining stories and the stories that have been released. If the serialization continues, even if they are collected and published in the future, everyone's enthusiasm for buying will not be as high because of the long-term subscription. Everyone in the magazine has already read them all, so it is better to save a few stories and not publish them yet, and directly publish them together with the previously published content, which can be regarded as a hook to attract readers.

Then let’s arrange it like this.

Let’s publish this short story collection directly after a while. Lin Zhibai notified Jiang Cheng of the decision, and the other party will communicate with Nathan Bookstore. Considering that the two parties get along very happily, Wu Yehou can temporarily contact Nathan Bookstore. We are working together and will consider contacting other publishing houses in the future.

Lin Zhibai confirmed:

As the reputation of Evernight Houfuture becomes more and more popular, other publishing houses will definitely come to us.

 …

 A week has passed in the blink of an eye.

There are countless discussions about "I Am a Singer" on the Internet. Many people are looking forward to the results of the second episode and various prediction rankings. Of course, some people are worried about whether the quality of the second episode will decline.

this day.

 The second episode is about to be broadcast, and all the answers will be revealed today. Many people have been waiting in front of the screen early.

 “It’s broadcast!”

“It turns out that the order of the singers is determined by drawing lots. I thought the first issue was specially arranged.”

 “The bracelet is terrible!”

“The poor bracelet was drawn in second place. Isn’t it too tragic?”

 “Yue Shan Lan No. 3?”

“The ones singing in the front are all at a disadvantage, so it’s better to sit back because the audience is the last to vote, so they will definitely be more impressed by the following songs.”

 “Xia Yulong No. 5?”

“Not bad, but not as good as Zhang Xiyang, who is on the 6th.”

 “Good sign!”

 “I think Zhang Xiyang is such a good man, he just changed the number 6 to a bracelet!”

 “The bracelet push-ups were not in vain!”

 “Haha, I’m almost moved to tears by the bracelet.”

“Brother Xiyang was the first to sing last time and won the first place. He is a talented artist and very brave, but he really took care of the bracelet.”

“Brother Xiyang is really a fan of this show!”

 “It’s started, it’s started!”

 “The host is Brother Xiyang again!”

“Brother Xiyang’s hosting skills have improved. He didn’t have many knots today, but it was quite interesting to listen to him. This show does not have a serious host, but it has become a highlight.”

 “Oh haha!”

 “There’s an ad!”

“Longquan water is exclusively named?”

 “Thanks to the sponsor, the stage has been upgraded!”

“Longquan’s brand of mineral water is very good. I decided to wholesale a box later and ask them to sponsor our poor program team.”

 The program begins.

 Seven singers.

 Taking turns to sing.

This episode was recorded by Lin Shengtian at Shinhwa Entertainment Studio No. 1. All the equipment is top-notch in the world. The treble is sweet, the midrange is accurate and the bass is deep. In a word, it is transparent. Even the stage has been upgraded. At first glance, it looks better than the one recorded in the first episode. The booth is much more advanced, the lighting is more gorgeous and the band is stronger. However, non-professionals naturally don’t know the reason. The ordinary audience just feels very comfortable after listening to it. The enjoyment brought by the stage performance even surpasses the previous one!

 “I’m finally relieved.”

 “The quality is even higher than the previous issue!”

“I was really worried about stretching my hips in the second episode of this show, but now it looks like I can’t stretch my hips. As long as these singers are on stage, they can support all expectations!”

 “Is this song by Zhang Xiyang his own?”

"This is his famous work, but the adaptation is bigger, and it sounds more exciting. People can't help but want to dance along with the whole body. The original song is not so exciting, and it really feels good to be high."

 “Oh, Xia Yulong actually sang high notes?”

 “Wow, this high note can kill a group of young singers instantly!”

“Are these veterans trying to change their voices? Yue Shanlan didn’t hit the high notes this time, but her voice is really good. She can be very charming even without singing the high notes.”

"Is Li Long nervous?" "I think there was a mistake in the lyrics just now."

 “Han Yueshuang is so stable, not like a young singer!”

“Bracelet, bracelet, bracelet, that’s amazing. Is this the sound of bracelet? Why does it feel like the style is completely different from before? He can also sing high notes?”

"Wonderful!"

 The audience was once again amazed by this show!

In this issue, except for Han Yueshuang who chose to continue the previous style for the sake of stability, every other singer is challenging themselves, singing a completely different stylized work from the previous issue, but it still sounds so good. It feels like a veteran in the music industry. His strength is so comprehensive that he has almost no shortcomings. Even Lin Shouzhuo has begun to change his style!

 Take Xia Yulong as an example.

In the first issue, Xia Yulong mainly relied on his feelings to move people, but his singing image was actually a bit old-fashioned in the eyes of young people. His feelings can't last a lifetime. As a result, in the second issue, he changed his style and a traditional musician started singing A pop song with a very difficult high note, it sounds fresh and pleasant to the ears!

 After the seven people finished singing.

ˆAnnouncement of rankings.

Lin Shengtian came up with a mobile phone, and the audience suddenly laughed tacitly. They suspected that this grinding producer was up to trouble again!

 As expected.

"The third place is...the third place is...Okay, let's just announce the second place."

“Next, it’s the fifth’s turn...who will be the singer in fifth place? Let’s leave it in suspense and let’s take a look at the third place first.”

 “How about everyone guessing first?”

“The first place’s performance today is very exciting, shouting his name must be very loud, so we have to drink a glass of Longquan water!”

“Have you noticed that my voice is louder?”

“Haha, after drinking the Longquan water, the resounding name is-Xia Yulong!”

　　　…”

 After receiving the title of Longquan Water, Lin Shengtian started his performance.

The audience felt that this person was really verbose, and at the same time they couldn't help but be amused. He had so many great quotes!

After rambling for a long time, the results finally came out.

 First place: Xia Yulong

 Second place: Zhang Xiyang

 Third place: Yue Shanlan

 Fourth place: Lin Shouzhuo

 Fifth place: Han Yueshuang

 Sixth place: Zhao Yuxia

 Seventh place: Li Long

Combining the vote rankings of these two episodes, Li Long was eventually eliminated. This is a niche singer, but his performance in the show has been recognized by other singers and the audience.

  “Reluctant to part with.”

 “Come on Li Long.”

“Actually, Li Long is not bad at all, but there is nothing we can do. These opponents are really terrifying!”

"yes."

“Even two young singers, Lin Shouzhuo and Han Yueshuang, are the best among their peers.”

 “Uncomfortable…”

 “I like him so much!”

“Did the program team manipulate the votes?”

 “I feel like Li Long is at least in the top four this time!”

 “This is a game, someone has to be seventh.”

 “Zhao Yuxia escaped.”

“Li Long made a mistake today and was too nervous, otherwise he would have stayed.”

 The audience is feeling sad.

Li Long hugged the singers one by one, and everyone's eyes were red. This was not an act of acting, it was just that they were all singers who had just become popular, and had similar experiences. They were getting along with each other during this time, and there was some sympathy for each other. .

 “Everyone!”

Lin Shengtian suddenly spoke.

 Everyone looked at him.

 The audience is also a little annoyed.

Someone is making comments on the barrage. This guy used to play Luo Li Ba Suo for fun, but now is not the time for you Luo Li Ba Suo to be clever. Don’t you know how to read the atmosphere?

 “I want to hold a revival match later…”

After Lin Shengtian said these words, the singers were immediately surprised and the audience burst into laughter. The barrage they just complained about changed faces at the speed of light:

 “Well said, Director Lin!”

“Director Lin, you are my light!”

“You can be verbose, but if you find it annoying, I’ll lose!”

“Hahahahahaha, what should I do if I like Director Lin?”

 “Does the director have this right?”

“You forgot, Director Lin is the program producer!”

 “Director Lin is awesome!”

“Who said Director Lin didn’t understand atmosphere before?”

 “Hey, I apologize.”

 “I don’t know who will fill the seat next time?”

 The barrage suddenly became harmonious. Even though the Easter contest and the like were cliché, everyone liked it!

 Besides...

After these two episodes of the show, many people like Li Long and are really sad to see him leave like this.

certainly.

 The expectation for the replacement singer has also become one of the motivations for everyone to follow the next episode!

that's all.

 The second period is over.

After Lin Zhibai watched the second issue with his family, he suddenly heard his sister laugh and say:

“After a new variety show has been broadcast for seven days, the official will calculate the popularity and rank it together with other variety shows. I feel that Tiandi’s show can directly enter the top three of Qinzhou’s variety show popularity rankings.”

“Variety show popularity rankings?”

This is the first time Lin Zhibai has heard of this.

Lin Shengtian explained with a smile: "The variety show popularity ranking list is similar to your music industry's seasonal list, but unlike yours, which is updated once a month, our variety show popularity ranking list is long-term. As for whether it can be in the top three, it depends on the official decision." After calculating the popularity data, I’m not sure where it will be. After all, we are a new show and we don’t have enough background.”

Lin Zhibai understood.

 In fact, it is the popularity ranking of variety shows across the entire network. It is essentially a ratings competition, but the calculation method is more rigorous...

 At this moment.

 All colleagues in the entertainment industry are waiting for the ratings of "I Am a Singer" to be released!
