Seeing everyone so enthusiastic, the director team quickly told the camera operators to stop filming for a while. They called everyone to stop and hinted, "You should choose based on your own advantages."
If a large number of people all flocked to Zhu Zhengchu or Ying Zikui, how could the show be recorded? How awkward would the other mentors be?
After the director said this, some members who originally just wanted to see how handsome Ying Zikui was calmed down. After all, they were still in a competition, and they really should pay more attention.
While they were thinking, Ying Zikui's door suddenly opened. Ying Zikui walked out, greeting everyone with a beaming smile.
"I thought it'd be better to come out and say hello to everyone first. Hello, everyone. I'm Ying Zikui. Please take good care of me."
Ying Zikui indeed had a rare good looks. He was even more handsome in person than on TV. With a pretty - boy appearance, he captured the hearts of many girls.
Zhuo Ziyu whispered, "He seems to have become more handsome after not seeing him for a few years."
"No one is as handsome as my boyfriend!" Xiang Yutang only had eyes for her boyfriend now.
While everyone was exclaiming about Ying Zikui's good looks, someone whispered, "Teacher Zhu is coming."
"Damn, Teacher Zhu is so handsome today too. Did he deliberately dress up knowing that there would be other guests?"
"Nonsense. Teacher Zhu is always handsome, okay!"
"I think Ying Zikui is more handsome. He looks so cute."
"Teacher Zhu is more handsome!! Teacher Zhu is the best!"
Xiang Yutang also thought to herself that Zhu Zhengchu was the most handsome!
Zhu Zhengchu deliberately spent a bit more time on his appearance than usual. After Xiang Yutang left first today, he even sent someone to find out what Ying Zikui was wearing. Since Ying Zikui was wearing a white suit, he would wear a black one! Let's see who was more handsome!
With the cameras around, Ying Zikui couldn't openly greet Xiang Yutang and the others. He turned to greet Zhu Zhengchu first. After all, Zhu Zhengchu was a senior in the circle.
"Hello, Teacher Zhu. I've heard so much about you."
Zhu Zhengchu smiled slightly, looking extremely elegant. "You're too kind, Mr. Ying."
Ying Zikui enthusiastically stepped forward to shake hands with him. There was no sign of anything amiss on his face, but he felt a bit strange in his heart. He and Zhu Zhengchu were strangers, so why did he feel that Zhu Zhengchu was hostile towards him?
However, after spending so many days in the entertainment industry, he had seen all kinds of people, so he didn't take it to heart.
After greeting Zhu Zhengchu, Ying Zikui still couldn't help but look at his two childhood friends. Pretending not to know them, he extended an olive branch. "Are you Yutang and Ziyu? I've watched your joint performances many times. I hope we can cooperate in this competition too."
He invited both Xiang Yutang and Zhuo Ziyu, but in Zhu Zhengchu's ears, it sounded like he just wanted to hit on Xiang Yutang.
Zhu Zhengchu smiled gracefully and looked at Xiang Yutang. "Yutang, Teacher Zhu also hopes to have the honor to be on the same stage with you."
Xiang Yutang was stunned for a moment. Weren't they supposed to act less intimate in public? Zhu Zhengchu was the first one to break the rule.
Zhuo Ziyu nudged Xiang Yutang, signaling her to respond quickly. Xiang Yutang didn't want to make both of them embarrassed, so she quickly said, "I'll think it over carefully! I also really want to cooperate with both teachers!"
The director team knew that there was something going on between Zhu Zhengchu and Xiang Yutang. To prevent others from noticing, the director team picked up their megaphone again. "Alright, alright. Please, two teachers, go into the classroom first and wait for the trainees to come and form teams with you!"
Before leaving, Ying Zikui winked at Xiang Yutang and Zhuo Ziyu. Zhu Zhengchu almost went up and gouged out his eyes.
Xiang Yutang pulled Zhuo Ziyu, and the first place they went to was the dance teacher's door.
Many people were paying attention to their choices. When they saw the two of them go to the dance teacher, they were secretly happy. Didn't this mean there would be two fewer competitors?
It was a pity that the two of them were just putting on a show. They pretended to think for a while at the door and then walked to another rap teacher.
"Ziyu, I actually really want to rap!" Xiang Yutang said excitedly.
Zhuo Ziyu looked numb. "Tangtang, I think we should think it over a bit more." If Xiang Yutang rapped, she might start with lyrics like "Yo yo, your mom's head is like a ball." If others heard such lyrics, they would laugh their heads off.
The only places they hadn't been to were the rooms of Zhu Zhengchu and Ying Zikui. After much hesitation, Zhuo Ziyu decided to follow the original plan.
"Tangtang, I'll be in the same group as Zikui. You be in the same group as Teacher Zhu." Ying Zikui had publicly extended an olive branch to them just now. One of them had to go, or Ying Zikui would be very embarrassed.
Xiang Yutang nodded, and the two of them walked into different classrooms.
Zhu Zhengchu's classroom was already full of people waiting to show their talents. Most of these girls had good singing skills, but they still didn't meet Zhu Zhengchu's expectations.
"Lin Yan, you sang very well, but I'm sorry. Next one."
Xiang Yutang was sitting on the last chair, nervously looking at Zhu Zhengchu.
It was the first time she had seen Zhu Zhengchu looking so serious. Would Zhu Zhengchu ask her to leave without even letting her speak?
One by one, those who sang amazingly in Xiang Yutang's eyes were all asked to leave. Only a few extremely talented ones remained. Xiang Yutang nervously swallowed.
There were only three people left before it was Xiang Yutang's turn. When another person was about to start singing, Zhu Zhengchu suddenly said, "This program doesn't only focus on singing. If you can show your talents in other aspects, that's also okay. There are many musical instruments over there. You can choose one you're good at. If you don't have a good - at instrument, you can continue singing."
Xiang Yutang was overjoyed. Zhu Zhengchu was still thinking about her!
Although she really wanted to sing in public, to stay in the competition, she'd play the piano later.
When it was finally Xiang Yutang's turn, Zhu Zhengchu's serious expression softened a bit. Looking at her, he asked, "What do you want to perform?"
"Play the piano."
"Okay." Zhu Zhengchu relaxed his sitting posture a bit and waited for Xiang Yutang to play.
Xiang Yutang played the piano no worse than Zhu Zhengchu. Zhu Zhengchu nodded in satisfaction. "Okay, Yutang, please wait for me over there first."
Xiang Yutang's heart skipped a beat. Yeah! She made it!
Zhu Zhengchu was very strict with the members in his group. While other mentors had more than seven members, Zhu Zhengchu stopped accepting members after he had only five.
"That's it. The trainees who didn't make it are also very excellent. It's just that they don't match this song." Before sending the trainees away, Zhu Zhengchu still said some polite words.
Suddenly, a trainee stood up and pointed at Xiang Yutang.
"Teacher Zhu, although I admire Yutang's other abilities, she hasn't sung a single note from start to finish. Why can she get in just based on the accompaniment? This is the vocal group. We're supposed to listen to the singing! She got in several times just with the accompaniment. This is unfair to us!"
