Chapter 115 Tang Xuanjiao's Extraordinary Temperament
“Look at us, don’t we look like three walking traffic lights?” Jiang Songchu joked.
"Haha, at least we're warmer and more noticeable."
Chen Yun responded, and the three of them smiled at each other, feeling great, as if they were wearing team uniforms and becoming even closer.
They laughed and joked, as if all their troubles had been thrown to the winds.
The three strolled around the streets of Ningzhou, sampling street food, visiting unique shops, and even building a snowman in a park, enjoying a rare moment of leisure.
They had a relaxing and enjoyable night, without any stress.
Since Jiang Songchu was already chosen to perform today, she was essentially just a prop for the recording on the second day. No one felt any pressure, and they planned to head straight to the airport after the recording to return to Nanlin City.
The next day, the atmosphere at the recording site of Landong Provincial Television Station remained tense and enthusiastic.
At the recording site, the lights flashed and the music started. Today's recording went smoothly as usual, except that Jiang Songchu's ranking is still at the top, far ahead of the competition.
The last person to perform today is Tang Xuanjiao, whose name is already well-known in the industry.
She was wearing a tight-fitting Latin dance costume, her figure was graceful and her demeanor extraordinary.
Having studied Latin dance since childhood, she successfully gained admission to Haidong Drama Academy during her art exams thanks to this skill.
Tang Xuanjiao has a unique temperament. After transitioning from a print model to an actress, her first drama unexpectedly became a hit, and her subsequent dramas also achieved good results.
Her purpose in participating in "The Dance of the Phoenix" was clear: on the one hand, to increase her exposure, and on the other hand, to take this opportunity to collaborate with Song Jingdi and further realize her dream of becoming a Best Actress.
Tang Xuanjiao's goal was very clear. She had acted in many TV dramas and achieved good results, so she was naturally a bit arrogant. However, the movie offers she received were either not good enough in terms of script or director and team. In short, none of them were completely satisfactory.
If Song Chuanqiong acts alongside her, she will be one step closer to her goal of becoming a Best Actress.
Although she hasn't practiced dancing every day like before for a long time, Tang Xuanjiao believes that the preparations she has made recently are more than enough.
Tang Xuanjiao took a deep breath; she knew what this performance meant to her.
Thinking of this, Tang Xuanjiao walked onto the stage with pride and confidence.
She was wearing a gorgeous Latin dance costume, and her makeup was exquisite; every detail revealed her dedication.
Her steps exuded pride, the spotlight shone on her, the music started, and her body immediately danced to the rhythm.
Her eyes were firm, her Latin dance was full of passion and energy, and her movements were full of beauty, but a few of her movements lacked power.
All the dance moves were basic and lacked any real highlights. Watching her performance, Mao Xiaozhen and Duan Jian couldn't help but frown.
After the performance, Tang Xuanjiao bowed gracefully, and the fans in the audience erupted in enthusiastic applause.
She eagerly awaited the results, her heart brimming with confidence.
On the judges' panel, the lights were focused, and Song Chuanqiong's smile never stopped. He was the first to applaud, his eyes sparkling with admiration: "As expected of Xuanjiao, I'm so happy to be able to witness you dance in person!"
His words were full of affirmation for Tang Xuanjiao's performance, but they also seemed to hide a subtle and elusive meaning.
Tang Xuanjiao bowed slightly in thanks, a confident smile on her face.
However, Luo Jiarui, who was standing next to her, frowned slightly. His gaze lingered on Tang Xuanjiao for a moment, as if hesitant, before he finally spoke up and commented: "Ms. Tang, your performance was very dedicated. I saw great potential in you."
After hearing their evaluations, Duan Jian smiled faintly and said, "Your performance was already excellent, but there's still room for improvement. Keep up the good work!"
Mao Xiaozhen smiled and said gently, "I hope you can achieve satisfactory results."
Standing on the stage, Tang Xuanjiao listened to the judges' comments and felt a surge of displeasure because the praise she had expected did not come in the overwhelming manner she had anticipated.
Just then, Tang Xuanjiao's score was displayed on the big screen—853 points.
The moment the score was seen, the entire audience erupted in an uproar, whispering and discussing among themselves.
Tang Xuanjiao's face turned ashen instantly. She gritted her teeth, said nothing, and turned to leave the stage.
Backstage, her manager, Brother Liu, saw this scene and thought to himself, "Oh no, the young lady is throwing a tantrum again."
Brother Liu hurriedly told his assistant to chase after Tang Xuanjiao, while he himself quickly walked towards Director Xia He.
"Director Xia, I'm so sorry, Xuanjiao, she..." Brother Liu said anxiously.
Xia He glanced at him indifferently and interrupted Brother Liu: "Ten minutes, no exceptions. Let her calm down and then come back to continue recording."
Brother Liu instantly understood what Xia He meant, and he took out his phone to call his assistant.
The assistant, who was being mistreated, immediately handed the phone to Tang Xuanjiao when she saw it.
"Hello, who is it?" Tang Xuanjiao's tone was clearly displeased.
"Xuanjiao, it's me, Brother Liu. Come back quickly. Director Xia said to give you ten minutes to calm down, and then come back to continue recording," Brother Liu said kindly.
Looking around to make sure no one was watching, he lowered his voice and said, "Think about why we're participating in this show! And what about future variety show offers from LanDong TV!"
Tang Xuanjiao originally wanted to hang up the phone, but when she heard the words "Director Xia said," she patiently listened on.
In the end, she could only return to the stage with a frustrated expression.
As order was gradually restored, Tang Xuanjiao returned to the stage. Looking at her score ranking in the forties, she felt incredibly frustrated.
She knew that although the score wasn't low, it wasn't particularly high either, and it fell far short of her expectations.
Moreover, she believes that the score was given to her by the production team on purpose because she has fame, so they deliberately created a topic to attract the audience's attention.
Her fake smile could no longer be maintained, and she reverted to an icy expression.
Now, her face was terribly gloomy as she forced herself to finish the process and return to the contestants' seats.
Qi Shao went on stage to announce the end of the process, and the recording of the first stage came to a close.
Although the production team had cut off the footage to prevent it from being leaked, with so many people participating in the competition and watching the show, it was inevitable that some footage from the perspective of passersby would be secretly recorded.
Meanwhile, after the show ended, Jiang Songchu met up with Chen Yun and Aman and headed straight to Ningzhou Airport, discussing the day's recording along the way.
They boarded the plane back to Nanlin City without incident. By the time they arrived in Nanlin City, it was already 5 p.m. Jiang Songchu could only rush home to have dinner, meet with her family, and then prepare to return to school to register.
This incident involving Tang Xuanjiao has quietly spread online.
