Chapter 452 Non-toxic but beautiful
Chapter 452 Non-toxic but beautiful
The performance on the first stage was almost over, and the people in front were still performing and commenting, and it was already five o'clock in the evening.
There are only five people left in the waiting room. Yu Jiang and Rebecca are the highlights, and the remaining three are Mango’s own people.
Yang Shutong, host of the Economic Channel of Xiangjiang TV Station, resigned from her job at the age of 30 to have a child and divorced at the age of 40. She wanted to make her debut through this program.
She got in through the back door. After all, she was the best news anchor at that time, and Mango TV was willing to give her this opportunity.
Yi Huiqing, debuted in a talent show in the early years of Xiangjiang. She was once so popular that her songs could be heard in the streets and alleys. Now she is an underground rapper.
There are not many older female rappers in China, and the program team hopes that she can come and fill this gap. She also remembers the kindness of Shonan TV, so she is willing to participate.
Meng Fangyi, the earliest host of the Xiangnan Entertainment Channel, later switched to filming TV dramas, but has not achieved much.
She is either old and experienced or a veteran actor. Her acting skills are terrible, but she is very self-aware.
The oldest person here is Meng Fangyi, but her spirit is the best here.
They have been sitting here since around ten o'clock. Few of their clothes are comfortable. They also have to pay attention to their image when being filmed. Everyone is very tired.
When there are a lot of people at the beginning, other people's first performances will be broadcast on the screen, and everyone will applaud, cheer and encourage each other.
Later, fewer and fewer people came, and everyone became gradually tired. The one who received the loudest cheers and applause always came from Meng Fangyi.
Even Yu Jiang admired her state. She clapped normally from beginning to end, while Meng Fangyi cheered in various ways, and her reactions were all very good.
The other four people finished their performances one after another, and Yu Jiang was the last to perform.
The people who had finished their first stage performance were in another room. When they heard Yu Jiang coming on stage, they all became excited.
When Yu Jiang was bringing equipment backstage, the scene facilities on the stage were also changing.
Her stage design should be the most complicated one among all the contestants. The blooming poppies were presented through holographic projection, and there were stage fireworks in the middle of the high-burning area.
Tong Jiajing sent Yu Xianning there on time and is now standing in the staff area watching Yu Jiang's performance.
After Yu Jiang went on stage, he saw her standing in the audience before the performance, and only then did he feel at ease to perform.
On the pitch-black stage, the sound of piano rang out and a spotlight shone on Yu Jiang in the center of the stage.
Her outfit, which had strong cheongsam elements, neither matched the R&B style of the song nor the ballet shoes on her feet.
"She has a strange shape that doesn't fit anyone's frame. She's like a fairy visiting the human world, stumbling in the secular world~"
As the song started, she stood on her toes and spun around on the stage like a ballerina in a music box.
The harpsichord is not suitable for playing R&B, this song is not suitable for ballet, the dance costume and shoes do not match, and the stage is fragmented and strange.
Yu Xianning frowned as she watched her apply the basic ballet movements she had taught her, but they were still different from those of professional students, and the gap was huge.
"She is so beautiful that she shouldn't care about other people's eyes. She should just sway in the garden, recklessly and passionately~"
"She is unique in the world, she should be remembered for all eternity, she is not afraid of being criticized, but she wrote the final chapter for herself too early~"
"She wants to experience all kinds of love in the world and is willing to sacrifice her life for her lover, but she lacks the courage to love herself~"
"Non-toxic but beautiful, everyone loves you, but you don't love yourself~"
As she sang the lyrics one by one, Yu Xianning shifted her attention away from her mediocre ballet movements. It seemed as if the song was about her.
The sudden addition of drums to the piano and the fierce drum beats made people inexplicably excited, and Yu Jiang's dance moves also turned into rapid and extroverted jazz dance.
"We are all fantasizing that you are swaying in the center of the stage again~"
"When poppies bloom, you don't need to invite anyone to see them. Their fragrance belongs only to you~"
The bright red petals of the poppy projected on the stage shattered and floated in the air, dancing freely around Yu Jiang.
The drum beats and piano music were in a fierce competition. Yu Jiang danced faster and faster during the interlude, as if he was struggling with something.
She is making a choice, to maintain the status quo or to continue her unfinished business?
Rather than saying it was a choice, it was more like persuading herself, but she always lacked the confidence and courage to choose the path she liked.
The rhythm gradually slowed down, and the sounds of drums and piano merged again, as if they had reached some kind of balance and coexisted harmoniously.
"The future is still far away, I hope you can forget the old wounds, the past is nothing and there is no need to imagine it, find the love for yourself and continue to fly~"
"Life is so long, open your window and strive for immortality, don't confine yourself to living in vain~"
"You have a unique shape, you don't have to fit into anyone else's frame~"
"Thank you for visiting the human world. Keep on being graceful and don't stumble~"
In the last few lines of the lyrics, Yu Jiang's ending voice trembled slightly, perhaps because of lack of physical strength.
In the last sentence, she returned to her original ballet movements, standing on the stage with her head raised proudly.
The red petals around fell to the ground like dust as the last note ended. The lights went out and the stage returned to darkness.
The lights came on again, indicating the end of the performance. Yu Jiang finally put down his burden and breathed heavily.
The first stage performance was so unethical, there was no backing track for the singing and dancing!
Besides, the dance choreographed by Ran Feng is quite vicious, a fast-paced jazz dance. Does he really think she is a professional dancer?
Yu Jiang took a sip of the water handed to him by Tong Jiajing, and then he calmed down a little and began to introduce his performance.
"Hello, mentors. This time, my first performance is an original song called "Yu Meiren". It is also my first attempt at songwriting."
Leng Yuezhu, who had been laughing for six hours, was still smiling with a look of surprise and started her boasting mode.
"This is the image of the girl group I want! Pretty and memorable, good at singing and dancing, and creative..."
After praising the song for a long time, she finally asked the question she wanted to ask, "Why did you choose to write a song like this for the competition?"
"This song is about Poppy Yu, the former ballet dancer.
"Her Beauty" is a stage that gives female artists in their thirties and forties the opportunity to start over.
On this stage, I chose to use Poppy as inspiration for my debut performance because I also hope to see her choose to start over.
The lyrics are my encouragement to her, and the fighting music is my understanding of her.
She is an artist with a fragile heart. She made the choice with great pain and felt guilty about it. She felt that she had betrayed her stage and was too ashamed to face it again.
But Poppy was born for ballet and blossoms on the stage. Dance is her soil and the audience brings her nourishment.
I really like the idea of our program team, and now I want to tell it to Yu Meiren.
Nothing can stop an outstanding woman from shining, whether she is over 30 or over 40, as long as you want, nothing can become your shackles. "
