"Everyone, please take note — the performances going forward should aim to et the standard of the group that just perford. They are the benchmark for a proper girl group."
Luo Junxiang’s words made everyone’s heart tighten. They were silently comparing their own skills to see if they could reach the level of the Bala Girl Group.
"Just now, I noticed that the girl nad Qiang Yueting danced exceptionally well. I want to hear her sing as well." Luo Junxiang’s comnt stirred up complex emotions among many of the girls in the room.
They knew that anyone given a solo performance opportunity would likely be soone their company intended to heavily promote.
The fact that Qiang Yueting earned this chance was not surprising to most in the audience. After all, she had competed on "Huaxia’s Voice" and achieved a respectable ranking. Among the five mbers, she was indeed the best singer.
Ye Yuwei watched as Qiang Yueting, smiling with confidence, stepped forward. This girl was truly composed, with no trace of nervousness on her face.
However, her biggest drawback was that she neither exuded a girlish charm, nor a mature allure, nor much cuteness.
In terms of appearance, she was at a significant disadvantage.
"Let showcase one of my original songs," Qiang Yueting said as the staff brought out her instrunt.
She then perford a song with a straightforward lody, yet it was quite pleasant to listen to. She even integrated the nas of the girls in her team into the lyrics.
The song beautifully conveyed their sisterhood and team spirit.
The other girls on stage cooperated seamlessly during the performance.
Ye Yuwei was certain that this was a practiced routine.
Whoever had planned this performance was very clever.
When others gave solo performances, they showcased their individual strengths. If soone had the ability to outshine everyone else, they would rise to the top. However, by leveraging the collective strength of the group, one could achieve a result greater than the sum of its parts.
Within this team, the most dazzling figures were undoubtedly Fu Xiaoyu and herself.
The ntors appeared quite pleased as they watched.
Next up was the Red Sun Rising girl group, stepping onto the stage.
This group exuded youthful energy. They looked like college students who hadn’t yet graduated.
"Why is your group called Red Sun Rising? Are you aspiring to be the brightest sun?" Long Zitao quipped as he teased them.
"Actually, Red Sun Rising is the na of our company. Our group’s na is DS98," Lin Jiayi, standing at the center, said with an effortful cute smile.
Lu Bingbing couldn’t help but shake her head slightly at Lin Jiayi’s deanor.
This girl’s persona didn’t quite fit. While her face was round and she looked decent, her intrinsic vibe didn’t align with cuteness at all.
Being cute wasn’t just about having a babyface; it required an innate charm that felt convincing, or else it would co across as awkward.
The unanimously acknowledged "sweetheart" of Hanoi, Ran Ran, was the kind who exuded natural cuteness from her appearance to her aura, making her believable.
Among the contestants sitting there, Jiang ngqi, Lai Ruoxuan, and Lv Xiaoxue were all representatives of the "sweet" type.
The worst part was that Lin Jiayi’s image overlapped with Lai Ruoxuan’s.
Both had youthful, petite features, but Lai Ruoxuan appeared more natural and fresh.
"DS98? Why did you pick that na? Are you trying to diss the 98 girls here?" Long Zitao continued with his jokes.
Lin Jiayi was montarily stunned by the question.
From her perspective, Long Zitao had a point — weren’t they here to compete, after all?
But if she admitted it, would it co across as too aggressive?
Faced with a difficult choice, she made a "fierce" "wa-yah" sound and said, "Yes."
In the end, she decided to stay true to herself. She had absolute confidence in her abilities.
Ni Chunshu, Li Shihan, and Lin Jiayi opted for an upbeat song.
Their movents were clean and sharp, showcasing plenty of explosive energy. Every beat was hit precisely, and they cleverly avoided their weak point — singing.
Their chosen song had a simple rhythm and short lyrics. Still, they went off-key and were a fraction of a beat behind overall.
At the end of the routine, Li Shihan pulled off a challenging dance move.
The audience responded with enthusiastic applause.
In Ye Yuwei’s opinion, this group perford very well. They rotated the center position strategically. Although their self-introductions were lackluster, their performance earned them points.
Among them, Li Shihan and Lin Jiayi left a strong impression.
Li Shihan purely relied on her technical skill, while Lin Jiayi showcased a "cute but fierce" side, thanks to the joke Long Zitao had thrown her way.
Next to take the stage was the Fashion Girl Group.
This group received the warst applause from the girls in the audience.
Within the group, Yang Ni was truly dazzling with her short blonde hair and devilish smile.
Once the introductions were over, they began their performance.
Their singing and dancing skills were on par with the Bala Girl Group’s.
It was clear that considerable effort had gone into planning their routine.
Midway through the performance, there was a deliberate "music mix-up" mont, leading to a twist. The star of the act turned out to be Yu Xiaohong, the girl with quirky looks, a purple top, glasses, and a knack for always staying on rhythm during ntor-led rehearsals.
The whole performance had a stage-play quality, with an excellent overall effect.
At the end, captain Yang Ni led the group in using dance movents to depict "riding a motorcycle" and "applying makeup," bringing the routine to a climax.
Watching this routine, Ye Yuwei sighed inwardly. Yang Ni was simply too dazzling.
If the program team edited the footage normally, the other mbers of this group would likely be overshadowed by her radiance.
Although Yu Xiaohong had a codic persona, her resemblance to Gao Ziyi presented an issue.
When audiences looked at codic characters, they typically favored those with a rounder build.
But fate is unpredictable; it would depend on how things played out for the two of them.
"This group perford really well. My eyes couldn’t leave two of them," Zhang Wei was the first to speak.
" too — the captain and the girl next to her," the usually quiet Wang Junhe added.
This surprised many, as they had expected the focus to be on Yu Xiaohong and Yang Ni. But instead, it was Wang Miaomiao and Yang Ni.
Of course, in terms of appearance, Wang Miaomiao was more stunning.
Her figure was more balanced and voluptuous than Yu Xiaohong’s, her legs long and straight, and her face breathtakingly beautiful.
On the other side, a flicker of disappointnt crossed Yu Xiaohong’s eyes.
She had tried her best, but the spotlight still belonged to others.
"Have you heard this song before?" Luo Junxiang’s slightly puffy eyes glead with an expression that made the girls uncomfortable.
Under Wang Miaomiao’s puzzled gaze, he made what he thought was a cute gesture — but really ca across as sleazy — waving his hands as he sang, "Mmm-mm! Kiss , I want a kiss."
This made not only the trainees but also the other ntors onstage visibly cringe with embarrassnt and helplessness.
It was unclear what possessed him to act in such an absurdly tacky manner.
Wang Miaomiao was equally uneasy but couldn’t help feeling a twinge of pride within.
After all, the man was a long-established celebrity, and the way he looked at her proved her undeniable charm.
Should a ntor like him back her on the show, her path to fa would undoubtedly beco much smoother.
Motivated by such thoughts, she imdiately struck a pose blending cuteness with seductiveness to sing the song, finishing with a blown kiss.
However, she wasn’t bold enough to flirt outright on stage; her kiss was aid elsewhere.
Yang Xiaoyue, on the other hand, appreciated Luo Junxiang’s antics. This segnt had high entertainnt value, was within the rules, and didn’t push boundaries.
After all, the song had been publicly released before.
anwhile, Lu Xiaoman of Little Grass Culture watched with clear disdain.
As a social dia influencer, she knew all too well what soone like Luo Junxiang was like behind the "star" facade.
These kinds of people often sought "deep discussions on life" with influencers like her.
Zhang Jiarui, who was livestreaming incessantly, also smirked, her eyes full of derision.
"Mr. Luo, is this really appropriate?" Lv Fangxin murmured softly. In her eyes, the lofty image of "Mr. Luo" was beginning to crumble.
Others, like Chen Yinghan and Liu Feiyu, who ca from influential backgrounds, remained indifferent.
They, too, were well aware of the true nature of the ntors seated there.
Soon after, Zhang Wei asked Yang Ni to perform a solo segnt.
This opportunity was one of the perks offered by the show to the participating companies.
Each company could nominate soone they wished to promote, and Yang Ni delivered an excellent performance.
