RBCT Chapter 14 "Later"
Chapter 14 "Later"
"Hello everyone! I'm your old friend Fang Ziyu!" A voice came from the stage.
Fang Ziyu is a singer from Taiwan Province, one of the guests on the show, and also a guest host.
The rankings for the first two periods were in the middle.
His appearance meant the show was about to begin.
The audience fell silent.
Xu Yuan then took out his phone and started refreshing the Weibo trending topics list.
As expected, after a period of silence, Yu Qingwan's scandals resurfaced.
Top 35: Photos of Yu Qingwan's past diva-like behavior on set exposed.
Top 22: Huang Kai's social media account was forced to disable comments after being attacked by Yu Qingwan's extreme fans.
Top 13: The new cover of "I Am the King of Singers" has been released, and Yu C lives up to her reputation by standing in the center again.
Top 8: Confirmed! Yu Qingwan didn't receive any good songs, and she's likely to be at the bottom this week!
Top 4: Insiders revealed that Yu Qingwan had a romantic relationship during her school years.
The last trending topic soared to the top of the trending list within the time it takes to listen to a song, becoming incredibly popular.
There were already many viewers watching the live stream today, all hoping to see if Yu Qingwan could find a good song to avoid being eliminated due to the music association's ban.
But then, unexpectedly, a dating rumor surfaced.
On stage, the second singer, Zhou Bowen, was performing, but the comments section was filled with messages related to Yu Qingwan.
[Is it true? Yu Qingwan has been in a relationship?]
What does "have been discussed" mean? They might still be discussing it now.
[Before the scandals have been cleared up, her public image is facing another collapse.]
[Pretending to be innocent all day long, yet dating incredibly well.]
[That's just how celebrities are; very few of them are honest, so why bother with the innocent image they portray?]
You think she's brave and alone, but actually she's been secretly working in someone else's bed.
Jiang Youwei, who was on the judging panel in front of Xu Yuan and the others, was also notified, but she was not flustered.
Because that man's calculations were accurate again.
Before Yu Qingwan went on stage, a wave of scandalous information was revealed thanks to the show's high level of attention.
Since the allegations of vying for center position, copyright infringement, and album plagiarism have all come to light, there's nothing left to smear, so the only recourse is to steer the discussion towards unsubstantiated claims.
Among these, romantic relationships are key.
Because Yu Qingwan had never been involved in any romantic relationships before.
Her campus romance experience will be a major blow to her public image.
Normally it might not be a big problem, after all this time, but now that it's been exposed, it will definitely affect Yu Qingwan's score later.
and……
"Moreover, the drop in ratings due to negative online sentiment isn't the key issue." Yu Qingwan was also discussing these negative rumors with Tang Yi in the waiting room. "Xu Yuan believes that DiYu will use these rumors to make a move."
They used illegal means such as tampering with data to directly lower my score, putting me in last place and making me a target for a challenger.
In this way, even if I manage to find a song I can sing, it will be wasted.
The second song, hastily performed, was of utterly poor quality; losing was to be expected.
"And during the second battle, they can still directly tamper with the data." Tang Yi clenched her fists in anger. "Under the cover of public opinion, even if your rating is abnormal, people will believe you if you explain it as being due to a bad reputation."
This is almost the highest grade of black.
Going further up the chain would involve forceful intervention that breaks the rules of the game, but that would offend Haidu TV, something DiYu was still somewhat wary of.
On stage, all five singers have finished their performances.
Zhu Jialin was the third to perform, and it was another classic girl group song.
Although the solo singing and dancing lacked a bit of atmosphere, it still ranked second.
"How was it? I think Zhu Jialin's singing is amazing, right? She's the vocal powerhouse of the Imperial Concubine." After Zhu Jialin's performance, Cui Xiaoen immediately asked for praise from both sides.
Although An Xue wasn't a fan of Consort Yang, why would she spoil her friend's fun?
He nodded repeatedly.
However, Xu Yuan kept shaking his head.
"Hey! What do you mean? Weren't you a fan of the Imperial Concubine last time?" Choi Hyo-eun frowned, pouted, and looked like she was about to throw a tantrum if you kept this up.
"The main problem is that all I could hear was you singing along the whole time," Xu Yuan said, shrugging. "It's only because the tickets were free, otherwise I would have made you pay me two hundred yuan."
Pfft!
An Xue covered her mouth and chuckled.
He's not only warm-hearted, but also very humorous.
Cui Xiaoen was relieved and was about to let Xu Yuan go when she noticed the mischievous smile on Xu Yuan's face. Then she realized what he meant: "Wait. You mean I didn't sing well?"
"Are you kidding me? I'm a top trainee at Bala Entertainment, an all-around ACE in singing, dancing, and looks!"
"Trainee?"
"Yeah, didn't you know? There's a variety show called 'Legendary Trainees' coming up soon, and I'll be participating if nothing unexpected happens."
"What about An Xue and Yin Zhen'er?"
"Of course we'll go together! We're the company's ace team, the Bala Trio! I'm Bala the Clown..."
Before she could even say the word "woman," the host spoke up, his voice drowning out Choi Hyo-eun.
Xu Yuan couldn't hold back this time and burst out laughing: "Hello, Bala Clown."
Just then, a shot from behind was shown, and the viewers in the live chat noticed Xu Yuan's trembling shoulders.
Yu Qingwan is about to be released.
She's definitely last.
[Look, even Yu Qingwan's fans are crying.]
The girl next to her looked very angry, probably because she was upset that her boyfriend was still supporting Yu Qingwan at a time like this.
Yu Qingwan has a lot of brainless male fans.
[All that glitters is not gold; Yu Qingwan's only fans these days are those who admire her looks.]
"You've really angered me!" Choi Hyo-eun, with her twin ponytails, was practically bursting with rage.
"Shh." Xu Yuan put his finger to his lips. "She's here."
The lights dimmed.
Yu Qingwan slowly made her entrance.
She styled her hair up today, and her makeup gave her a mature look.
Wearing a dark blue horse-face skirt, she also exudes a touch of heroic spirit.
At twenty-eight years old, she can be both sweet and sassy, both sophisticated and cool.
Today's Yu Qingwan is the Yu Qingwan who has achieved success and received awards.
A look of reminiscence crossed her eyes as she slowly began to speak:
"Later, I finally learned how to love."
"Unfortunately, you have long since gone and disappeared into the sea of people."
"Later, I finally understood through my tears."
Some people, once missed, are gone forever!
His opening remarks were filled with endless regret, instantly bringing tears to my eyes.
An Xue shuddered, remembering the regret of not exchanging contact information with Xu Yuan that day.
And there are many boys and girls like her.
In the footage, Yu Qingwan's eyes are red as she tries to calm her surging emotions:
"White gardenia petals fell onto my blue pleated skirt."
"I love you, you whispered, and I lowered my head and smelled a fragrance."
"That eternal night, the midsummer of my seventeenth year, the night you kissed me."
"May I always remember the starlight of that day, whenever I feel moved or amazed."
Jiang Youwei, sitting on the judging panel, was visibly emo.
Another love song written for that woman!
They kissed during their seventeenth summer, at the school opening ceremony?
Yu Qingwan has such a fast tongue!
Jiang Youwei's gaze lingered on Yu Qingwan's dress.
This isn't a horse-face skirt at all; it's clearly a blue pleated skirt designed to echo the lyrics!
Why was love so simple back then?
"And why is it that when people are young, they must hurt the ones they love deeply?"
"In this similar late night, are you also quietly filled with regret and sorrow?"
"If we hadn't been so stubborn back then, we wouldn't have so many regrets now."
How do you remember me, with a smile or in silence?
"Over the years, has anyone been able to keep you from being lonely?"
