Boss Is Reborn After Everyone’s Betrayal! - Chapter 316

316 Chapter 316. Song Selection Stage

That was what Wen Xiu thought, but to his shock, Mysterious Person X was not weak; he was solid! He could also see that Mysterious X was warming up rather than competing. He did not use all his strength at all!

After three rounds of competition, the director announced the final results. Mysterious X was indeed in the first place.

The surrounding trainees applauded and congratulated Mysterious X, and Ding Shan clapped her hands perfunctorily.

She was clapping when she looked up and saw Mysterious Person X looking at her.

Ding Shan immediately straightened her back and clapped with a severe expression. At the same time, she nodded.

Xiang Hong wanted to laugh.

‘It’s been hard on you, little fox. You might as well give me a perfunctory reply.’

As the first-place winner, Mysterious X had the priority to choose. Everyone looked at him when the director asked which song he would like to choose.

The 15 songs had different styles, but it was obvious that some of them were more suitable for performing on stage.

The more impactful a song was, the easier it was to get the audience excited, and it was also more likely to get a higher number of votes in the end.

On the other hand, some slow and emotional songs were weaker. No matter how well they performed, they would still appear dull compared to other performances that blew up the audience, and the audience, in the end, would easily forget them.

Wen Xiu, who was in second place, clenched his fist unwillingly.

He already had a song in mind that he wanted to choose the most: ‘ The lion.’ The melody of this song was intense, the dance was excellent, and it was full of tension. According to his many years of stage performance experience, this song was the most accessible song to ignite the audience’s passion on stage.

Many people had the same idea as Wen Xiu. ‘The lion’ had attracted the interest of many trainees, and some of them had even started humming some parts of the song.

Because Mysterious X was about to choose, many people thought he would choose the lion.

How could the first place not choose the best song?

Mysterious Person X, the audience’s focus, seemed to have made his choice long ago. He picked up a card with the title of the song without hesitation. I choose ‘Not just a song’.

The entire audience was shocked. In confusion, many trainees asked the people next to them, “What song is ‘Not just a song?’ Do you have any impressions? Does it sound good?”

Among the mentors, Su Yan and Chen Xi looked at each other. Su Yan slowly shook his head as if he did not understand Mysterious X’s choice. “This song is not suitable for a first public performance.”

Su Yan’s words weren’t without reason. This song was tranquil and gentle. It was too uncompetitive in the middle of a group of songs that danced with a fierce rhythm. Although this song didn’t sound remarkable, it wasn’t easy to sing. A slow song tested one’s grasp of rhythm and aura. If there were a mistake, the audience would quickly notice it.

Chen Xi touched his chin, and his eyes showed interest.

He had already listened to the 15 songs chosen by the Festival team. ‘Not just a song’ was written by a not-so-famous young singer. He had participated in the same music variety show as the young singer before, so he had some impression of him.

Obviously, this song, which was very different from the other songs, was just there to make up the numbers.

The Festival team had to choose 15 songs, and just negotiating the copyright was troublesome enough, so it was normal for one or two pieces to appear that weren’t that good.

Of course, Chen Xi wasn’t saying that the song was terrible, but it was unsuitable for a competitive performance stage.

Moreover, Chen Xi could tell that the song did not seem complete. It was more like a half-finished song.

He knew the singer’s personality very well. He was a perfectionist, but the song still had many flaws. It was probably sold to the Festival Group before it was perfected.

Ding Shan didn’t expect that Mysterious X would choose this song. Although she was an actress, she could tell this song was too quiet compared to the other songs. It might not have much of a competitive advantage on stage.

Why did he choose this song?

After Mysterious Person X chose his song, the other trainees chose their favorite songs. Wen Xiu got his wish and chose ‘The lion. The excited smile on his face was almost impossible to hide.

He glanced at Mysterious Person X and thought, ‘What a fool. As expected, he didn’t know anything and chose such a lousy song. Isn’t he just giving up the good stuff for nothing? Hahaha …’

After choosing the song, it was time to group up.
