Chapter 112 Eye-opening
"This year, we will see more celebrities competing on the same stage with ordinary people. This will not only test the dancing skills of ordinary people, but also the performance of celebrities in front of the public."
“For amateur contestants, they will face greater pressure because they not only have to showcase their dance skills, but also compete with established celebrities, which is undoubtedly a huge challenge.”
"For star contestants, they need to maintain their own style while showing more innovation and breakthroughs in order to win the favor of the audience and mentors."
Qi Shao added, "This is not only a dance competition, but also a contest of popularity and strength."
Finally, Qi Shao took a deep breath and then announced loudly: "Everyone, these are the competition rules for the first round of this year's 'Dancing Splendor'."
"Now, we will witness the passion of dance, the collision of talents, and the pursuit of dreams."
"Let's wait and see who will emerge victorious in this brand new challenge!"
As Qi Shao announced the end, thunderous applause and cheers erupted from the audience. All eyes were focused on the upcoming competition, anticipating the outstanding performance of each contestant and who would ultimately emerge victorious in this brand-new challenge.
"Alright, let's officially begin our competition! All contestants, get ready and conquer this stage and our audience with your dance moves!"
As Qi Shao finished speaking, the stage lights changed again, and the music slowly began, signaling the official start of the competition.
The applause and cheers from the audience reached a climax, with everyone eagerly anticipating the exciting performance to come.
Jiang Songchu prepared just like the other contestants, their hearts filled with love for dance and a desire for victory.
On this stage, they will showcase their talents and pursue their dreams.
Meanwhile, Song Chuanqiong, Mao Xiaozhen, Duan Jian, and Luo Jiarui sat on the judges' panel, exchanging a few words from time to time, preparing to score the contestants' performances.
The spotlight focused on the center of the stage, and a tense atmosphere permeated the contestants.
The contestants on stage were either nervous or expectant, not knowing which number they would be selected to go on stage.
Jiang Songchu sat in the contestant's seat, her gaze following each contestant who came on stage, recalling the details of her own performance.
One contestant cautiously remarked, "This random order really makes me uneasy." The other contestants nodded in agreement.
Yes, this year's competition rules stipulate that the order of appearance will be randomly selected backstage and announced on the big screen before the contestants go on stage. Therefore, all contestants will have to be on-site for the recording of today and tomorrow.
Everyone looked at the big screen and exchanged bewildered glances, then looked at Li Zile not far away.
Duan Jian smiled and looked at everyone: "It seems that the first one to come on stage is our dancer, Li Zile. Let's give her a round of applause!"
Everyone applauded. When Li Zile heard his name called, he calmly stood up and smiled slightly at the contestants backstage.
Li Zile comes from a distinguished family of dancers. He graduated from Haidong Dance Academy, is a national first-class actor, has won numerous awards, and is one of the main creators of the dance drama "Under the Moon over Songshan".
He is handsome, with fair skin and a perfectly proportioned figure, which attracts many fans.
After stepping onto the stage, Li Zile first bowed deeply to his mentors and the audience.
"Hello everyone, I am Li Zile. Today I will be presenting a modern dance that I choreographed myself."
His words were concise and powerful, and the audience immediately fell silent, eagerly awaiting his performance.
As the music started, Li Zile began to dance.
His movements are full of power, yet through the soft changes in his limbs and the rich expression of emotions, his performance, which combines strength and gentleness, makes the audience feel that their souls have been cleansed and that their dance has taken them into a mysterious world.
As Li Zile finished her dance, the stage lights gradually dimmed, and the audience's applause erupted like thunder, lasting for a long time.
He bowed gracefully again, then walked to the players' seat and sat down. His gaze was calm, and he seemed to have enough confidence in his performance.
Mao Xiaozhen picked up the microphone first and said with a smile, "Zile's dance is truly eye-catching. Every movement of his is full of power and beauty." Her words revealed her approval of Li Zile's performance.
Duan Jian nodded repeatedly: "Li Zile, your dance is really infectious, I like it very much."
Song Chuanqiong frowned slightly: "Although the overall result is good, I think you could have been more refined in some of the details."
Luo Jiarui followed closely behind, his voice carrying a hint of seriousness: "Indeed, Zile's performance was impeccable, but I expect him to show more innovation and breakthroughs in future competitions."
The scores are revealed in real time; the scoring begins immediately after the performance.
The audience excitedly pressed the voting buttons, and the mentors also cast their votes seriously.
There were a total of 900 audience members present. Each mentor's vote counted as 25 votes, so the total score was 1000 points.
The score on the big screen kept jumping, eventually settling at 926.
This score was undoubtedly very high, and the audience erupted in enthusiastic applause. The side screen also placed Li Zile's name at the top of the ranking list.
Li Zile was slightly surprised, then a satisfied smile appeared on his face.
The amateur contestants who followed each had their own unique strengths, and their performances were a real eye-opener for the audience.
They performed folk dances, jazz dances, or Latin dances. The most surprising performance was by a slightly chubby girl who performed a belly dance.
To be fair, this young lady performed exceptionally well. Belly dancing requires a certain amount of flesh to look truly beautiful, and her confidence and poise left a deep impression.
However, Li Zile's score still ranks first.
At this moment, the big screen showed that it was Tian Qiushui's turn. Tian Qiushui confidently walked onto the stage with firm steps.
"Hello everyone, I'm Tian Qiushui from IS GIRL. Today I'm bringing you the title track from IS GIRL's latest album."
Tian Qiushui is a typical girl group member, and her best skill is naturally girl group dance.
Tian Qiushui was wearing a red crop top with black sequins that shimmered under the lights, and a black mini skirt that accentuated her long, straight legs.
The music started, with a strong rhythm and full of energy.
Tian Qiushui immediately got into character, dancing to the rhythm of the music. Her turns and jumps were precise and powerful, and her long, wavy hair swayed with the beat of the dance, showcasing her professionalism as a member of a girl group.
As a sexy move was performed, the audience's enthusiasm was completely ignited. Screams and applause rose and fell, almost lifting the roof off, and everyone swayed to the rhythm.
As the performance ended, Tian Qiushui winked and blew a kiss, instantly igniting a frenzy among the fans in the audience: "Qiushui! Qiushui!"
