Sleepless Nights

For Night Owls,
To Spend The Time Away

Chapter 29

The first name is about to be read, and the trainees don’t know whether they want it to be called quickly or later.

If you do it earlier, at least it will mean that you will not be eliminated, and you can breathe a sigh of relief immediately, instead of being worried all the time. But if it’s later, you can still hope to have a higher ranking, which means you can be one step closer to the debut position.

Two thoughts have been swirling in their minds. The trainees are struggling with their eyes looking forward to the card held by producer Cui Zhihao with burning eyes.

It seemed as if he wished he could penetrate that thin card and directly see the rankings of himself and others.

The most unlucky person is probably the trainee ranked 64th. This breath has to be hung up all the time, and it can’t be put down or lifted. Even if he bursts into tears on the spot, everyone will understand.

It’s so grueling, and it’s not much worse than the day when college entrance examination students get their results.

After all, it was just the beginning. Producer Cui Zhihao did not hold back for too long. He smiled and read under the bright gaze of everyone: “The sixty-third trainee, the number of votes cast by the audience and producer is… thirty-five thousand six.” One hundred and one votes.”

The trainees’ eyes were bright and their hearts were surging.

The last place also had more than 30,000 votes! This is the first episode that just aired.

Cui Zhihao said: “Congratulations to Wen Ziqian, a trainee from Wenhua Media!”

This is a name that is relatively unfamiliar to the upper-level trainees. Class D, which was rated at the bottom twice, is not very impressive in terms of strength, but its character is not bad.

The key point is that she looks pretty and fair, the kind of fair-skinned type that makes people easy to like her.

When his name was read out first, Wen Ziqian was almost completely confused for a moment. His legs were a little weak, and he felt a little dizzy. He sat motionless for several seconds before finally standing up.

He was a little overwhelmed, and a huge sense of happiness surrounded him, making him feel like he was in a dream.

People around him were congratulating him. Wen Ziqian could see the envy in his teammates’ eyes and stammered: “Thank you, teacher, and thank you to the audience who voted for me!”

Cui Zhihao looked at him gently and raised his hand to greet him. He came to the microphone standing in the center of the stage: “You are not talking there, come to the stage and say your speech.”

The handsome boy walked up to the stage with hands and feet, but no one laughed at him, only envy and blessings.

From the corner of his eye, he could see countless cameras following him, and in a short period, they only focused on him: “Ah,” he swallowed his nervous heartbeat and calmed his breathing. “Thank you to the audience and producers for voting for me…I know very well that I am very weak. Thank you, thank you for being able to see me…I have already packed my luggage. I thought I was going to go home directly tonight.”

Atsuko Qian’s eyes were a little red. When he watched the show before, he always thought that those who cried frequently were acting, but only after he actually experienced it, could he understand that sometimes it was just difficult to control at all.

Happy and sad, confused and full of hope. In the past, he was the only one who knew that he was heading in a certain direction, but from this moment on, this road is no longer lonely, and it is no longer his alone.

Every vote cast for him seems to be a person telling him that he has someone to accompany him and that we can walk this road together in the future.

It seemed that in an instant, all the anxiety and confusion were dispelled. What is left is a little inexplicable warmth in my heart and endless hope.

In the end, he just said: “Thank you.”

Qin Lu, who was sitting in the corner, looked at Wen Ziqian with a touch of nostalgia in his eyes.

He knew exactly where the complicated but bright light in the eyes of the trainees on the stage came from. That kind of excitement and surging, as if the whole world was opening up to him for the first time, receiving flowers for the first time, and feeling the presence of someone he didn’t know but had good intentions, and the warmth of being far away but close at hand.

Once upon a time, a long, long time ago, he came through this way. Maybe it was a little more bumpy and he experienced more setbacks, but fortunately, he got through those difficult and gloomy days bit by bit.

No one ignores him anymore. Even where the stars shine in the crowd, people are the first to see him and the first to call out his name.

All the unknown hard work and fatigue were wrapped in warmth in an instant and gradually disappeared.

The road you pass will not always be smooth. After climbing a high mountain, there are still mountains beyond the mountain.

But along the way, there are fragrant fragrances, gurgling water, beautiful rainbows when the showers clear up, and you can still see thousands of miles of clear skies when you look up from the deep silt.

Wen Ziqian has just taken his first step into this circle, and there is still a long way to go. As long as he doesn’t forget how he feels at this moment and why he set out in the first place, he won’t be lost in the troughs or glitz that may exist in the future.

The trainees at the scene did not know what was going on online, nor did they know who would be more popular and who would be less popular. As the rankings of the first ten and last trainees were announced, they gradually began to have some idea.

Wen Ziqian, who was ranked second to last in the overall ranking, had more than 30,000 votes. By reaching the 54th place, he had jumped to more than 86,000 votes.

“There’s such a difference…it’s doubled, right?”

“Oh my god, this is a trainee who is in last place, and the eleventh one from the bottom has almost 100,000 votes. This is the first time he’s been ranked!!”

” Calculating the days, it probably won’t be broadcast for long, it’s too scary.”

The trainees were a little shocked. Most of them were participating in the audition for the first time, although they knew that there were many stars in the entertainment industry with millions of fans. , but as a newcomer Xiao Transparent who is not even on the 108th level, this is the first time that she has truly felt how fierce the competition in the entertainment industry is.

Maybe if they work hard from this show to the end, they can still have a certain fan base even if they can’t debut, which will definitely be of great help to their future development.

This show comes at the right time.

“The 53rd to 44th trainees will be announced below.” Producer Cui Zhihao did not pause and continued to announce the range in units of ten.

“The fifty-third trainee, as of the early morning of this morning, the total number of votes is 115,326.”

The trainees started a small discussion.

“Another jump of 30,000!”

“I’ve already begun to fantasize about how many votes there will be in the first place. You think it will reach 3 million, right?”

“It should be more than that. Oh, I’m so envious.”

Qin Lu’s team, no one has been named yet.

Liao Junchen sat in the last row. There were no friends from the same company around him, and no one dared to talk to him.

Although the atmosphere between Liao Junchen and Qin Lu always seemed incredibly harmonious, when he was alone, his cold and slightly sharp facial features always gave people a strong sense of distance.

He is strong and rarely changes his expression. His dark eyes are steady but cold when looking at you, making it impossible to guess what he is thinking.

Therefore, although the trainees were in awe and sincerely thought that he was very powerful, they did not dare to talk to him. The people sitting next to Liao Junchen even felt relieved when their names were called.

Song Yan accepted the congratulations from the people around him with joy, but he had to pass in front of Liao Junchen before he could go out.

He scratched his head in embarrassment and looked at Liao Junchen cautiously. He was relatively big, so Liao Junchen had to stand up and make way for him if he wanted to walk over.

Liao Junchen stood up, and Song Yan quickly took two steps. Just when he was about to say thank you, he heard Liao Junchen simply say: “Congratulations.”

Song Yan: “…”

He suspected that he had heard wrong, and turned his head suddenly, almost dodging. neck.

Liao Junchen still looked expressionless and didn’t smile, but the voice he just heard was serious and a sincere blessing.

Song Yan suddenly understood that everyone seemed to have misunderstood Liao Junchen. It’s not that the other party is difficult to get along with, or unattainable, it’s them who put Liao Junchen on the altar. They were afraid of being rejected, so they isolated the other party first and drew an unreasonable boundary.

Thinking about how he just wanted to turn his head away from Liao Junchen’s ostrich look, Song Yan suddenly felt that their behavior was a bit hurtful.

Although he had no intention of isolating the other party.

Only Qin Lu knew from the beginning that Liao Junchen was not aloof from others. He got along with him peacefully and easily without filters, so he became the closest friend to Liao Junchen.

In this aspect alone, Qin Lu was different from others.

Song Yan showed a relieved smile and said happily: “Thank you.”

Liao Junchen nodded.

The camera recorded this scene truthfully, and when it was broadcast, it was a small node that allowed people to get a glimpse of the trainees’ true personalities.

The ranking has reached 44th, which has doubled again, from 53rd and 110,000 to 260,000.

The trainee ranked at the bottom of the next range is 120,000 yuan less than the one before him!

“Forty-three is 380,000… Oh my god. The voting started when the theme song was completed, and it hasn’t been many days until now. Producer Cui Zhihao just said that the rule is that members can vote up to three times per day. I don’t know. Is it because of the large base of people, or because the fans voted many times alone? “

“Maybe both…it’s amazing.”

Fans in the show circle are always enthusiastic about voting, and as long as they are not the type that no one cares about, the number of votes will not matter. Too ugly.

Of course, the program team may also be slightly over-inflated based on a certain ratio. The apparent data will be higher than the actual one, but generally, it will not be too much.

The trainee who came on stage to give his speech at the beginning was the most excited. Although the trainees who followed were also excited, they were not too nervous after watching so many rounds. I also prepared a few draft sentences in my mind, so that I would not stutter or be incoherent when speaking.

Most of the last thirty trainees who advanced are not very high-level, but there are exceptions. For example, some have the best appearance but are at the bottom of Class F in terms of strength. It is a stroke of pure luck that they flew over the safety line at a low altitude. There are also B-level students whose names were accidentally called, proving that strength is not completely proportional to ranking.

Some B-level trainees are even ranked worse than some F-level trainees with excellent conditions.

Destiny is always relatively fair. Although rules have been established, people’s preferences are still uncontrollable subjective factors.

The thirty-fourth trainee who was called was also a B-level trainee. This ranking was relatively average, close to the median, but it was obviously far from the trainee’s expected ranking.

When Nan Xiao looked at the other party with a complicated expression on the stage to deliver his speech, Nan Xiao’s face was paralyzed and he couldn’t see the change, but the hand on his knee was quietly clenched.

The thirty-fourth trainee’s grade is B, and so is he. Nan Xiao lowered his eyes, he was a little confused and a little relieved.

Will this be his last attempt? If he fails to advance to the next round, is eliminated, and misses the chance to perform for the first time two days later, will he give up from now on?

Nan Xiao quietly raised his head and looked at the nine empty seats at the top of the pyramid, and his mood surprisingly calmed down slowly.

He will never give up.

Maybe this is his last chance to stand on the stage, but who knows? Everyone knows that he is a very stubborn person. If he falls once, he will be upset or complain, but he will still stand up and keep running.

No one can stop him. If it doesn’t work once, he will try again. Even if he never succeeds, he will only have regrets and will not give himself a chance to regret.

Life is a chess game where you keep making moves. Whether you are trying to turn the tide or being forced back step by step, you will have no regrets about your moves.

Nan Xiao has walked through countless forks in the road. He seems to have never made the right choice, but when he makes the next choice, he still will not stop there.

He was mentally prepared to be eliminated, and when he put his mind together and raised his head, his eyes met Qin Lu who was looking back from the front.

The young black-haired trainee is not impetuous at this age. His light-colored eyes are clearer under the bright light, and it seems that he can clearly see the struggle and peace in his heart.

Qin Lu looked at him and curled his eyes. His smile made people feel at ease for no reason like the fresh wind blowing after a dull rainstorm in summer.

He mouthed two simple words, “Come on.”

Nan Xiao was startled for a moment, then stretched out his hand to touch the corners of his still stiff mouth, and gave him a signature “smile” in return.

He felt warm in his heart and thought, I can do it.

In the previously announced internal voting, Qin Lu was the most popular trainee.

A total of ninety-nine votes were cast, and Qin Lu won with an absolute advantage of sixty-seven votes. Most of the remaining people either voted for themselves or their best friends. They didn’t have much contact with Qin Lu and didn’t know them well.

It stands to reason that trainees with completely different personalities should not have a crush on the same person, but most of them like Qin Lu.

Although he is young, he is not as out-of-the-box as Su Qinglan, nor does he have a strong sense of distance like Liao Junchen and Han Suyan. But he is also handsome, with clean eyes, and is very patient with every trainee. Even when there is no camera, he is willing to spend precious time helping the weaker trainees. Qin Lu clearly explained the detours he had taken during practice so that others would not waste time and could maximize their efficiency.

In talent shows, any time that can be saved means that the final stage can be presented better.

Although all trainees are actually in a competitive relationship, Qin Lu doesn’t seem to mind.

After experiencing the cruel competition of intrigues within the company, most trainees have never seen an opponent like Qin Lu. Even though they made good friends on the show, they still couldn’t help but be envious of their inferiority, and their emotions would be affected, but Qin Lu wouldn’t.

Talking to him for a few words seems to make you less impetuous.

Now, after confirming that Nan Xiao’s mentality was not bad, the black-haired trainee set his sights on producer Cui Zhihao again.

The process of announcing the ranking of the last trainee went very quickly, and the gap in the number of votes gradually became wider and wider. The number of votes for the 34th place was still 610,000, while the number of votes for the 33rd place soared to 100. Eighty thousand.

If you go ten more places, that’s 2.3 million votes.

Producer Cui Zhihao smiled and said: “Twenty-third trainee, 3.6 million votes!”

“Oh my god… did I hear that right? There is a difference of 1.3 million votes between the two before and after. “

It’s getting scary…I can’t imagine more people voting for me.”

The gap is gradually widening.

Nan Xiao’s name has not been called yet. Among Qin Lu’s teammates, only Toeisup is currently sitting on the pyramid seat, and he is the nineteenth.

The sixteen-year-old Chinese-Thai trainee has light-colored eyes and flaxen hair that is soft and fluffy, like a beautiful doll.

He just felt like he was in a dream, and he didn’t have to go back to his hometown for the time being. The reality is just like what Han Suyan said, nothing is impossible.

When the first debut position was announced, many of the remaining trainees knew in their hearts that they had no chance. This breath has been hanging for too long, and when it’s time to face it, I feel a little calmer.

Everyone wants to know who can reach the nine debut spots for the first time. According to past experience, more than half of those who can enter the top nine for the first time are likely to eventually make their debut as a group.

As for the finally announced number 64, the trainees have decided to leave it to fate.

The person who got the first debut spot was Lu Zhi. Although he is talkative, that is why he has the most shots in the first issue. His reactions are interspersed throughout the whole process. You can even hear him chattering non-stop in the voice-over. He has a really strong sense of presence. His strength does not stretch his hips, but he has a contrasting charm, so the audience can be divided into two extremes: either they find him annoying because he talks too much and they fast forward when he comes, or they like his lively personality and like to watch him talk and think he is funny. , the stage is cute and contrasting.

Immediately afterward, Jin Youen finished eighth.

The cool man with single eyelids who took the stage to give his speech spoke with a proficient Beijing accent and had a very forthright personality: “Thank you everyone for voting for me. I will definitely continue to work hard!”

I don’t know what their fate is, but Fan Xi, who has always been in love with him, just happened to be one place behind him in the current seventh place.

Fan Xi, who has dyed red hair, still doesn’t know what suffering is in the world, and her face is written on her face with wanton publicity. She speaks whatever comes to mind in her speeches. There is no logic but she is very sincere.

“Mom and Dad! Did you see that in addition to being able to eat hot pot, I can also be ranked in the top nine? Isn’t it amazing?”

He said a lot of things without thinking. Finally, he grinned and concluded: “Just one place higher than Jin Youen. This is the happiest thing. Hahaha!”

Jin Youen: “…”

Well done, as always, I deserve a beating.

“The sixth trainee is special,” producer Cui Zhihao said with a smile, “Although he is participating in the draft for the first time, he is not a rookie anymore.”

Nan Xiao’s eyes lit up little by little.

The next moment, producer Cui Zhihao met his gaze and showed a gentle smile: “Congratulations, Nan Xiao, the total votes exceeded 7.6 million.”

The trainees were happy for him, and Nan Xiao walked up to the stage and followed Qin Lu looked at each other with smiling eyes, and finally let go of the huge stone in his heart.

Although he couldn’t make any expressions, his eyes were very bright, and he was relaxed but firm when looking directly at the camera.

What Nan Xiao said was very simple, but sincere and grounded: “Thank you to all the fans who voted for me. I know that some of them are people who have been with me for a long time and have supported me since I debuted, but I used to I disappoint you.”

“I have been away from the stage for too long. Many people think that I have forgotten my original intention, but I always remember it and never want to give up.”

“Thank you also, I never thought about it. Give up on me.”

Nan Xiao said calmly, although his facial expression was uncontrollable, his eyes were shining brightly.

“Let’s go back to six years ago, to the time when we were still ignorant. Let’s start again. Whether it’s a new fan or a former fan, I hope I won’t live up to all my sincerity. This time, I want to stay with you for a long time. “It’s been a long time.”

The trainees all felt the same. Looking at Nan Xiao who bowed deeply, they couldn’t help but stand up and cheer for him.

Fate is cruel and gentle, but there is always a kind of companionship that can last for a long time.

Little Curly got fifth place. He was so happy that he didn’t know what to say, and his speech was as energetic as ever.

Fourth is Yu Zifei, who was promoted to Class A during the re-rating. The light-blond-haired trainee still looked like an iceberg even when he gave his speech, and ended with just a word of thanks.

The trainees couldn’t help but think that if it were them, they would probably want to express all their feelings. Yu Zifei, this is really not something ordinary people can do.

When it comes to the top three, only Han Suyan, Liao Junchen, and Qin Lu are left in the Avengers team.

The other trainees knew that they were not destined to be among the top three, so they couldn’t help but set their sights on these three people.

It’s just that ordinary people may seem a little restless, but the remaining three Dingli are extraordinary. Even if the camera is pointed at them all visible to the naked eye, they still don’t look nervous at all.

According to the director team’s routine, when the top four are still unannounced, individual shots of each person will begin. When it is broadcast, the camera will change back and forth between several people, and their individual shots will appear in the corners of the screen, showing their real-time reactions and expressions.

“The third place received 8.01 million votes.” Producer Cui Zhihao was a little surprised when he read it out. He omitted the last few words and did not say it. This number was already somewhat beyond his expectations.

The trainees were almost dumbfounded.

“More than eight million votes…”

“Oh my God…”

“That’s too much, it’s scary. This is my first ranking. Although I’m almost destined to be eliminated, I’m still promoted. The following people felt scared.

“What’s the number 63? Thirty thousand? This gap is really terrifying.”

The third person was finally announced, Han Suyan.

When his name was called, Han Suyan looked calm. When he came on stage, he seemed to be walking around in his own home calmly and casually.

Even though he only has a faint smile, he is still dazzlingly beautiful. The three-dimensional and beautiful facial features in the camera are so exquisite that it makes people lament that God’s partiality is unconcealed.

“Thank you to everyone who voted. I will cherish this position.”

Producer Cui Zhihao watched him bow and then turned and walked towards the steps, thinking that this child is as talkative as ever.

Finally, the most eye-catching moment has arrived.

The camera panned back and forth between Liao Junchen and Qin Lu.

Who is first and who is second?

The staff behind the camera, even though they already knew the final result, could not help but feel excited in their hearts.

She couldn’t help but recall the fierce melee she saw yesterday when she curiously checked Weibo –

the controversial video about Qin Lu not long ago. Although Qin Lu and his sister came out to post their household registration book and explained clearly the next day, Liao Junchen and Qin Lu’s fan circles The bridge between them has been forged, and they are destined to be incompatible with each other from now on.

The number of other fans is not large enough for the time being. Only Qin Lu and Liao Junchen have the strongest fans and the most united fan circles.

After the video incident, fans of the two families were disgusted with each other, and the competition became more intense. They both wanted to win the first place, and they fought hard.

Fans of Qin Lu said that fans of Liao Junchen were despicable for slandering and slandering the rhythm, and fans of Liao Junchen said that fans of Qin Lu were royal navy cheats and backstage coffeemakers.

From the time the first episode airs to the first ranking deadline, there is no point in quarreling. At this time, what situation will most slap the opponent in the face? That, of course, is voting.

Whoever can win this first round will be able to take advantage before the second-ranking and go sideways in the infinite youth super story.

So the two sides quickly reached an agreement.

Everyone started voting with all their strength!

Every fan reaches out to friends and relatives, buys countless trumpets, and can triple their votes by becoming a member.

Not only that, the personal super of both companies have been opened, and the big fans, data fans, and fighting fans of the future have also begun to take shape –

not only to vote, but also to vote in an organized and rhythmic manner, so as not to waste every potential vote. Don’t miss every opportunity you can!

Core fans need to vote, casual fans need to vote, show fans need to vote, and casual fans also need to vote.

Krypton gold fans who have begun to have a certain appeal in the Qin Lu circle have also opened an unlimited circle lottery: no matter whether you are a fan of another group or a pure passerby, as long as you post a screenshot of voting for Qin Lu with a tag in the report, you will have a chance to be drawn. Send a red envelope of 888 soft sister coins.

The show circle has always had endless enthusiasm for shooting.

Fans who called for voting on Weibo wrote short essays in Chaohua, encouraging and beating their own fans.

For example, a Weibo post on Liao Junchen’s Chaohua was pinned to the top by a young host.

[Liao Junchen’s Cream Cake V: Everyone knows how much Liao Junchen paid when he came to us. Even if there is no video of the practice room, and no Dog Company even mentions it on Weibo to help promote it, when we see his stage, we should understand how important this program is to him, right? Garbage companies will not treat our babies well. The fairy stage in the first issue is not even worthy of a hot search. The famous data will not be on the hot list no matter how hard it is. Should those Buddhists wake up? If you don’t vote and I don’t vote, when will Liao Junchen come forward?! He has tried his best and given us such a perfect stage. He is an absolute ACE in every aspect. Now it is our turn to fight for him. It is just a vote. Do we want to lose? Can we lose?! If you don’t want to see Liao Junchen, who is number one in every aspect, being trampled under the feet of the royal family, just give me your vote!! We can give him the first place and never lose!!! ]

Qin Lu’s super talk quickly turned into another short essay that made people’s blood boil and blood pressure rise.

[The No. 1 Qin Luye Mom on the Internet V: Friends, our clean and beautiful baby was scolded and scolded all night long. Originally, Qin Lu could rely on more fans in the show circle, but he was The other party’s malicious fabrication caused a whole night of bloodshed! How innocent he is. He is suppressed and beaten because his fans are not strong enough. I know that people who like Qin Lu are more Buddhist, good-tempered, and don’t hold grudges. But if you don’t hold grudges, they will plan to beat you up and say you are a royal!! Can you bear it? Any talk of taking a step back to open up the world is all lies. Just imagine, when the first ranking is announced, you will watch your brother feel depressed, smile and congratulate Liao Junchen for winning, and be ridiculed and insulted by the shrews of Liao Junchen’s fans on the Internet!! Does it hurt your heart or not? If it hurts, vote for me!! In the first public ranking, we must give Qin Lu the first place!! ]

The votes of Liao Junchen and Qin Lu were so fierce that both sides were competing, and the third place was directly eliminated by 5 million.

This is the first issue.

The staff are all excited, interested, and paying attention to themselves. They looked at the vote count, sometimes Qin Lu was at the top, and sometimes Liao Junchen was higher, and they didn’t know who would be the winner.

Even if the program team wants to interfere, they will not interfere with the number of votes in the first issue.

So it’s up to the fans themselves.

Until the deadline at midnight, the number of votes was still tight. The total number of eight-digit votes is only two digits apart.
