The Whole Entertainment Circle is Waiting For My C Debut

Chapter 2.1: MSG Factory Daughter

The audience in the live broadcast room went crazy, just like the trainees in the shooting studio.

     "second aunt group ...... is skr hilarious, these two are sure they didn’t go to the wrong booth? They should be attending the next-door crosstalk show right?”

     "This this this this ...... openly taking advantage of the mentor and Kai Kai (Xie Kai’s nickname) almost cried, but I want to say, nicely done, hahaha!"

    "To be honest, I almost fell asleep just now, these two suddenly woke me up when they came out, the little idols in the audience should stop quickly, their back teeth are almost all exposed, where's the burden⁽¹⁾?"

    "No matter how big the burden is, they are not as powerful as those jokes being cracked on stage! My mother just passed by my room and opened the door to ask me why suddenly there are now girls talking about cross talk..."

    The fuss made by Shen Qi and Shen Yuan had dissipated the heavy atmosphere created by the previous criticism of Sweety's grade, and the topic of the inheritance of national drama, and was restored to the pleasant atmosphere of variety shows. Some students even slapped their chests and said that they just laughed, and suddenly forgot to be nervous.

    Xie Kai also developed some good feelings for these two girls at this time, but this is a competition, in the end, only having the variety show feeling is not enough, it still depends on the real strength.

    "Then, second aunts..."

    There was another uncontrollable laughter from the audience, and Xie Kai signaled everyone to be quiet.

    "Regardless of the result, thank you for the joy you brought to this stage, I believe everyone will remember you. If you are ready, let's start the performance."

    The two nodded, the lights dimmed, and the atmosphere changed suddenly, the teasing and silly were no longer seen, there was only a serious stage.

    The people at the scene are divided into two attitudes towards the two girls, people including Xie Kai did not have much expectations. In general, truly capable contestants generally do not need to introduce themselves like this, most likely the stage content is not good, so they have to rely on these variety skills to gain eyeballs; while the dance instructor Gao Bing, who also debuted in the women’s group, saw Shen Qi’s well-proportioned figure concealed, the looming muscles on the calves and arms, and Shen Yuan's pointed toes... She felt that these two girls might bring some surprises.

    Music sounded, a gramophone voice change sound effect, carrying some old songs melody, as the prelude played for a while, began the piano accompaniment, Shen Yuan entered the song----

    "Time once past will never return, past events can only remember & savor"

    A round-faced girl that carried some meat, had a loli-like appearance, but when she opens her mouth it is a standard mid-range voice, with a heavy sense of an aged feeling, and a nostalgic reminiscence of the golden age.

    Good voice!

    Everyone present could not help but sigh in their hearts.

    But before they had enough taste, Shen Qi changed the style -

    "Don't mention the past..."

    Huh?

    Although the lyrics are connected, it seems that something is wrong, why does it sound like they changed the song?

    Although Shen Qi's singing voice is also very beautiful, it is full of modernity, and it brings the time back to the modern-day and the stage in an instant.

    Fortunately, Shen Yuan quickly picked it up and sang "Life has been windy and rainy", which seemed to bring the scene back on track again. But her partner Shen Qi broke it up again, the rhythm changed--

    "He said over the wind and the waves, endure the pain!"

    Shen Yuan frowned, "Dry your tears and don't question why"

    Shen Qi: "Why did you have to say? It's all my fault!"

    --------I asked you not to ask, you still ask!

    The audience suddenly noticed the mystery in the lyrics and burst into tears.

    Shen Yuan was so helpless that she had no choice but to pick it up again: "...I think of love too beautifully and reality is too tempting"

 Huh! Why does the music genre seem to suddenly change into the vast grasslands?

    Before the audience could adjust to the smell of lamb⁽²⁾, Shen Qi changed her emotions and looked affectionate: "How can I have the heart to blame you for committing wrong? I’m the one who gave you freedom that was over the top.." 

(If you see this it means this translation was stolen from https://honeystranslations.blogspot.com/)

    Blame me? So it's still my fault? The mood of the audience was complicated.

    Shen Yuan also had a "complex state of mind", lowered her body, and pleaded: "So please I beg you, don't let me leave you..."

    Shen Qi finally "awakened", and her painting style was serious for a second: " If you are going to have a change of heart as difficult as to reverse as, like time, I only have one answer..."

    Huh? It seems to have changed again?

    Shen Yuan calmly continued and sang: "It's so hard to love someone!"

    In just half a minute, the poor Shen Yuan had gone through the process of courtship, rejection, admitting mistakes, asking forgiveness, and being rejected again. Finally, she felt ashamed and sighed about the love problem.

    After a couple of ten seconds of dancing, the performance ended.

    The scene was silent for a while, and then there was thunderous laughter and applause at the same time, and there were even people whistling secretly. The atmosphere in the venue has been pushed to a new climax. There is no doubt that although it is nondescript, the show is actually very innovative.

    Compared with the trainees' enthusiasm, the judges are facing a serious problem here, they were dumbfounded.

    Dance instructor Gao Bing: "I feel like I have watched a languishing youth and unhappy maiden⁽³⁾ love scene. Oh, and in the middle, we even went to the grassland. The dance is good, it is very uniform. I can see that you have a tacit understanding."

    Vocal instructor Li Yimu:" The voice of the second aunts is really good, and the style is so seamless, I can't even do it."

    For this "praise", the second aunt group actually nodded seriously: "Thank you, teacher!"

    The producer instructor Qiao Jin is the most pleasantly surprised, known as a music player, he likes the unexpected and funny styles the most. He asked: "Who produced this song?" 

    The two looked at each other, and Shen Yuan pointed: "Her." 

    The producer instructor asked. "What's the name of this song?"

    Shen Qi: "Dui⁽⁴⁾."

    "What?" Xiao Jin couldn't hear it clearly.

    "The title of the song is called "Dui".

Footnote(s)

⁽¹⁾ In the Chinese entertainment industry, idols are known to have to maintain a certain persona in public albeit its not their true personality (but it may draw attention and bring in fans), and many of times these persona’s entail trying to maintain a handsome/beautiful appearance at all times (so not doing anything that may embarrass themselves and known aloof/cold reputation), which is called 偶像包袱 (Idol burden)

⁽²⁾Grasslands have lots of animals, so the mentor there is inferring the grassland feeling in the song by mentioning the lamb

⁽³⁾ Young men and women who are deeply in love but unable to fulfill their passion

⁽⁴⁾怼 (dui) means resentment

Translator’s note: So the song Shen Yuan and Shen Qi are singing to my knowledge isn’t an actual song but made up of lyrics from a bunch of popular old Chinese songs. (I listened to these before when I was younger, man is it a trip down memory lane)
