Fu Jinxiao who was sitting in the main seat did not answer immediately but picked up Jian Xingsui's information card again.
Liu Shuang next to him said: "Let's take a look first. First of all, this kid's purpose is impure. He came to this stage not for performance, but for money."
Teacher Li also agreed: "He has point. To be honest, his singing ability is not particularly good, but his emotional expression is rich and powerful. But if you look at a student who was rated as F class before, his singing skills were also good, so why was he rated as F? It's not even that he couldn't dance. "
Liu Shuang nodded: "I think giving him B is definitely impossible. He also can't dance. Giving F is possible."
Tuya frowned, and she said, "I don't think you can just focus on his weaknesses like this."
The opinions of the people were not unified again.
This was also a very rare thing. Jian Xingsui might be the first contestant who needed such a big disagreement among the mentors since the launch of Starlight.
Everyone's eyes fell on Fu Jinxiao again.
Tuya was curious: "What does mentor Fu think ne?"
Fu Jinxiao put down the information card in his hand. He was the least likely to speak among this group of people, but when he wanted to speak, everyone would stop and listen to him. They saw him raise his eyebrows slightly, and say slowly: "If you say that his purpose is impure, what about the others?"
Liu Shuang said, "Everyone else loves the stage, and they are here in order to make their debut…"
"If they love the stage so much, then why not just go to the other platforms to dance which is much suitable to show their love for the stage?" Fu Jinxiao hooked his lips: "What are they doing here at Starlight?"
It can't be said all of them but what most trainees hold on to is to become a big star, for the sake of making a lot of money, for fame, and for a stage where they can shine. Love for stage and dance can't feed you and your family. More or less, it's just the matter of who can earn more and who earns less through their success. In short, all most everyone's purpose to come here is to earn money.
"Besides…" Fu Jinxiao dragged his last note, raised his eyelids, and glanced at the uneasy child on the stage: "Whether he is serious about the purpose of the stage or not, as long as his attitude of singing this song is right, it's fine."
In a few words, the Film emperor's attitude towards this contestant's performance had been revealed.
Tuya smiled unconsciously. With Fu Jinxiao's support, she seemed to have a big backer, which made her waist straight: "I also think the way he sang was very touching. I think he is a very talented kid. It would be a pity if he was sent to Class F or eliminated. He is definitely talented than those who were sent to F. And later in time, I think he can do better."
Liu Shuang sighed: "Then where do you think he should be sent to?"
Those mentors were watching Fu Jinxiao again, intentionally or unintentionally. This showed the status among the group of people there. Everyone was waiting for him to make a decision.
On the stage, Jian Xingsui also had his heart tighten. Not only him, but also the contestants who had not performed in the contestant seats were feeling quite oppressive. They were also communicating in private:
"What level was this performance of?"
"B, it's B."
"I think F"2
"If he can only get F when he sang like that, then I'm done."
"God, I'm so nervous."
The discussion was so intense that even Jian Xingsui's roommate Wen Shengge got close to Shen Xingchen and whispered, "Brother Chen, what grade do you think he will get?"
Shen Xingchen didn't dare to say anything else, but the Shen family and the Fu family had a very deep friendship. Once, Shen Xingchen's mother had joked that if there was another youngest child in their family, she would have accepted Fu Jinxiao as a son-in-law. The two families were still able to join an in-law relationship because the youngest child was indeed born, but it turned out that child died as soon as she was born. This matter became taboo in the Shen family, and no one dared to mention it.1
Later, although the marriage was not formed, the friendship between the two families was still there, especially the relationship between his elder brother Shen Minglang and Fu Jinxiao was very close. So somehow, Shen Xingchen still had some understanding of Fu Jinxiao.
Hearing Wen Shengge's question, Shen Xingchen said, "I think, it depends on the situation."
Wen Shengge: "What do you mean?"
"Brother Fu probably won't give too high marks." Shen Xingchen replied.
Wen Shengge was a little puzzled: "Why?"
Shen Xingchen hadn't spoken yet when mentor Li, who was in charge of hosting on the stage not far away, had already obtained the results. He held the microphone and coughed a few times: "Okay, now let's announce the results, Jian Xingsui, your final rating result is…"
The lights at the scene dimmed all of a sudden.
Teacher Li went silent for a moment making everyone anxious to death. Many people were looking forward to the results.
Jian Xingsui's hand holding the microphone tightened. Teacher Li smiled slightly and continued, "Congratulations, your final rating result is ……………….C."
There was an uproar over the entire venue.
About this result, some people thought it was high, some people thought it was low. Some people even thought that Jian Xingsui was really lucky to get a C by only singing a song without dancing.
On the stage, Jian Xingsui was stunned for a moment, then bowed: "Thank you, mentor."
Tuya picked up the microphone and said, "This result is the result of our discussion together. There is a reason for rating you this level. Do you want to know?"
Jian Xingsui was sincere: "I want to."
Tuya stopped talking and she looked sideways at Fu Jinxiao.
Film emperor Fu was not going to speak, but Tuya had already said so, so he still picked up the microphone. This was the first time he had a direct conversation with Jian Xingsui. His voice was lazy and elegant: "Do you know why you got JUST C ?"
''JUST'' this word was very subtle.
The subtext was, I think your skill should not have only gotten a C, but it could have been higher.
The people at the scene were all comprehensible people, and they immediately heard the actual meaning of this sentence. Therefore, many people looked at Jian Xingsui with some envy in their eyes.
"Because you have the wrong thoughts about this stage." Fu Jinxiao saw Jian Xingsui's nervous appearance, and said slowly: "The thought I'm talking about is not about you competing for 20,000 yuan."
Jian Xingsui was a little puzzled. He didn't understand, if it wasn't for the 20,000 yuan, what would it be?
Fu Jinxiao said: "The problem with you was that when you came to the stage, you did not perform with the idea of winning, but with the thought that you would be eliminated."
Jian Xingsui had participated in the show with the intention of getting eliminated just after the first episode. Although he had done his best for this stage, he had not performed with the idea of winning, but with the idea of losing. A person who respects the stage, a person who has already participated in the competition, should hold on to the victory and perform with a strong belief. If it is presented to the audience with a mixed mentality, it is of course wrong. Fu Jinxiao's strictness has always been well-known in the industry, and this time was of course no exception.
"Since you are already standing on this stage, since there is an opponent, no matter how powerful the opponent is, you must perform with the heart of doing your best to win." Fu Jinxiao's amorous Phoneix eyes always seemed to be warm, which always made people unable to figure out his mood on most occasions. But at this moment, when talking with Jian Xingsui, the coldness in his eyes was shown clearly.
His aura was very strong, and his gentleness on ordinary days was already awe-inspiring. Once his face sank, the atmosphere at the scene was depressed and no one dared to speak, including Jian Xing Sui who was standing heartbroken on the stage.
But when Fu Jinxiao put down the microphone, his lips hooked, and he said the last sentence slowly: "After all, I never taught you how to lose."
This sentence seemed a bit nonsensical and no one in the venue could understand it. But Jian Xingsui didn't know why, at this moment, he suddenly seemed to understand what the film emperor meant.
Because Fu Jinxiao was someone who never admitted defeat.
His works, his style, what he passed on to his fans and others were always a spirit of being brave and fearless.
So little boy, how can you be a coward when I had never once taught you how to lose.
Jian Xingsui held the microphone. He opened his mouth incoherently, trying to organize the language. In the end, there were thousands of words stuck in his heart. But because his mouth was rather stupid, he didn't know what to say to express his feelings, so he could only bow deeply and say seriously, "Thank you, teacher."
Tuya smiled. She picked up the mic and said as if to comfort the child: "Don't be depressed. Have a little confidence in yourself. Confidence is the most important thing. Your singing style was very good. I am looking forward to your performance in the future. We are all looking forward to it."
Teacher Li also said, "Young man, it's hard to get this 20,000 yuan. You have to work hard."
Jian Xingsui was amused by the mentors. He bowed again: "Thank you, teachers(referring to the mentors), I will work hard."
Netizens in the live broadcast room had also watched this contestant's performance very seriously:
"This guy was actually quite good."
"Actually, I think he should have gotten B."
"Him getting B? Even An Ran had just gotten a B. They can't be the same."
"He doesn't even know how to dance. If he was given B, I would have suspected that he was the film emperor's someone someone……."
After Jian Xingsui went back, the people following their turn started another round of performances. This time, the stage progress was very fast but even till the evening, not everyone got to record.
When they went back, Shen Xingchen complained, "I didn't get my turn after sitting all day."
Jian Xingsui comforted him: "Tomorrow will be your day."
Ning Ze, a man who had never been very talkative, came back from fetching water and said for the first time: "Brother Fu is the main tutor this time and he is a very strict person. Many people had performed well today but still, most of us got only F. Those who could enter C and B should already consider them as lucky. A has not appeared so far, and it will definitely be more difficult for those who will perform tomorrow. "
In the dormitory, there was no camera, so everyone let go of a lot of grievances when they talk.
Wen Shengge and Shen Xingchen belonged to the same company, and this time they were also performing as a group, so they had somewhat gotten close. Wen Shengge came over and whispered: "Brother Chen, don't be afraid of your performance tomorrow, I think you will definitely get an A. After all, Brother Fu knows you and has such a good relationship with your family. So he certainly won't give you a bad grade. "
Shen Xingchen sneered: "Fuck, he won't give any special attention to anyone. Since my childhood, I've never seen that man giving favor to anyone."
The film emperor da ren (great person) who seemed very approachable in the industry, seemed to have good connections all over the entertainment industry. In fact, the more he seemed to be easy to get along with, the more difficult he was to approach. He had gotten the coldest heart among all the people Shen Xingchen had ever known.
Shen Xingchen looked at Jian Xingsui, who was obediently sitting beside him. He took a deep breath and said, "But I don't know why, I think he likes you very much."
Jian Xingsui was taken aback: "Why?"
"He looks very serious, doesn't he, but haven't you noticed? He had been playing with a pen during every group's performances." Shen Xingchen said in a low voice, "He was basically half closing his eyes and resting his mind. He seemed to have been completely absorbed in the performances, in fact, once he started playing with the pen, he hadn't put his mind on others at all. Even when that An Ran's group was performing, he was only playing with his pen."
Jian Xingsui really hadn't noticed that.
"But he suddenly acted differently when it was your turn. After you went to the stage, he simply didn't turn his pen!" Shen Xingchen looked like he was really surprised: "Also, I saw that he always took your information card when he had nothing to do. He, in fact, had never touched anyone's information card even once except for yours."3
