Ten years of film queen, finally became a top star

Chapter 466: Going off the beaten track

Zhou Yiran and Rebecca both liked the songs given by the program team. Yu Jiang's group had not yet found a song they liked at first sight, so they gave up the right to choose first.

In fact, the choice of songs has little impact on their group. As long as the songs are not too fast, nothing else matters.

Most of the contestants can either dance or sing. Except for Yu Jiang, everyone in their group has some basic skills. He Jingci and Xi Mengling have to start over.

They definitely can't keep up with singing and dancing to songs with too fast a tempo, so slow songs are more suitable for them, which is what other groups least want to choose.

With the example of Xie Ziyi, no one would choose slow songs for subsequent performances even if it would be more difficult.

But Yu Jiang still thinks that the completion of the stage is the most important thing. Even if it is a slow song, they can find other ways to make the audience remember them.

The Yu Jiang group, which was the last to choose a song in the "High Morality" competition, got the only slow song in the whole venue, "Can't Let Go", a song about a broken mirror that is difficult to mend but still unforgettable.

Not everyone likes this song, but it is often used as background music for short videos, so many people know it.

After selecting the songs, the only thing left is the stage design, which is the top priority of the Yu Jiang group's performance.

But no matter what the stage design is, you still have to be able to sing the song.

Although they are all actors, they are not professional singers but also not tone-deaf. In addition, with the experience from the previous two performances, it is not a big problem for them to just learn to sing.

So after successfully forming a team, the three of them practiced singing during the day and discussed how to present the song at night.

The dancing is definitely not good enough. If I want to get good results with this song, I have to take an unconventional approach.

In the past few days, they have watched all the performances of this song, and even watched many three-person performances for reference.

There was indeed not much room for slow song performance on the stage, and it was not until Xi Mengling had a flash of inspiration during a meeting that their ideas made new progress.

"We are all actors, and this song has a strong sense of story. How about we change it into a dance drama?"

Yu Jiang's eyes lit up, "Sure! We can first add the plot based on the lyrics, and then add the dance part after we have the script."

He Jingci said in surprise: "This way, our stage performance will be memorable without us having to step out of our comfort zone!"

They all agreed and started working on it. Anyway, they had practiced the song almost completely in the past few days, so the three of them just took a break and focused on writing the script.

The three of them each spent a day writing an outline, and then combined them in the evening to see which one was more suitable.

After the outline was finalized, it took another two days to supplement the script. After the script was finalized, I called a meeting with the program crew.

The choreography must be finalized first, and dance practice is also difficult for them. Fortunately, in this form of performance, there are not many dance parts.

The stage design and costumes cannot be sloppy either. There are not many areas where they can shine, so every detail must be cherished.

The five stages of the Sangong performance were all in modern style due to the limitations of the songs. Under this premise, the Yu Jiang group moved the stage closer to the ancient style.

The only ancient style among the five stages will make the audience's eyes shine, and it is also convenient to match the rhythm of the song.

Even though basic classical dance does not have too many difficult movements, it still looks beautiful and is very suitable for people with no basic knowledge like He Jingci and Xi Mengling.

Most of the dance performance was given to Yu Jiang. Although He Jingci and Xi Mengling also needed practice, it would be much easier if they focused more on the interpretation of the plot.

The interpretation of the plot is within their comfort zone. They polished the script themselves, and it made sense and fit the music, so they performed with full conviction.

Apart from paying attention to positioning and incorporating dance moves into body movements, everything else is fine.

Yu Jiang's group had no problem with practice after the script came out, and all that remained was the stage design.

Among the three characters, one person is required to play a cross-dressing role. The role of a boy has the least dance moves, so it is assigned to Xi Mengling, who learns dance the slowest.

There can't be two cross-dressing actors, and we don't want to have a female competition scene where two women fight for one man, so this time it's another story full of lesbian love.

The scene design is an encounter between an old lover and a young girl in a mountain temple in spring. The mountain flowers are blooming and she is very happy.

Ran Feng couldn't help much with the classical dance, and Yu Jiang had been designing the stage these two days, so they were both busy with their own things.

Ran Feng's autograph session has now officially begun, and the balance of the two taking turns to accompany Ran Shuyi has been broken. Fortunately, Yu Jiang San Gong's practice does not have to worry too much.

She was busy with stage design most of the time, so she could do a lot of work in Ran Shuyi's room.

Ran Feng's album signing this year will be from far to near, which can be well coordinated with the performance time.

There were a total of six signing events, half of which were held overseas and half in China. Except for Su Ruixiu who was in China preparing for the next step of work, Lin Xiaohan, Shi Jiayang and Luo Zihao all followed Ran Feng.

Before leaving, Ran Feng held his daughter in his arms reluctantly, because she was still too young, otherwise he would have to take Ran Shuyi with him to work as a pendant.

It was not until before the third public performance that Ran Feng’s overseas autograph sessions were all concluded.

He traveled to three countries in ten days, and apart from the book signing event, he also had some other schedules. He can be said to have returned to his previous working state.

The Yujiang group's third public performance is ready and they have been busy rehearsing these two days.

This time the program team has come up with a new idea. The performance order is no longer determined by the program team, but instead each group draws lots to decide the performance order.

Yu Jiang participated in the lottery as the team leader, but unfortunately he drew number five and was the last to perform.

The audience will also be tired by the end of the performance, and their stage this time is not so convenient for arousing the audience's emotions, which simply adds another difficulty for them.

Originally, I thought that based on the difficulty of the stage arrangement, their group would get a chance to open the show, but unexpectedly, the opposite happened and the program team came up with many new tricks.

When the performance order was determined, there were only two days left before the performance. After receiving the news, Xi Mengling and He Jingci were unable to make any adjustments and could only leave it to fate.

Each rehearsal of their group is a little different. Only the movements and a few fixed dance moves are fixed. The rest of the performance depends on improvisation.

Yu Jiang also thinks that they will perform better if they have more freedom, so he also supports this approach. Since they have already adopted a new form, there is no need for others to be too rigid.

On the day of the third public performance, no one knew how the show would be broadcast, and Group 77, who were drawn to be the first to perform, were also very nervous.

They were just as unlucky as Yu Jiang's group and were not suitable for the opening performance. The earlier they were placed, the less memorable they were.

The dressing room is always the busiest during every performance, but now that so many people have been eliminated, it is not as crowded as during the first public performance.

When others saw the ancient costumes of Yu Jiang's group, they knew how they would win.
