Director Liu studied Hu Jing up and down, and saw that she really didn’t look like she wanted to come back and continue participating in the competition. Hence, he decided to do Jiang Yu a favor and said: “Alright, as long as it doesn’t disturb the competition and recording, you can bring her in.”
“Thank you, director.”
Jiang Yu brought Hu Jing to the judges’ lounge and instructed, “You can rest here first. I’ll let you know when you’re going out.”
“Got it.” Hu Jing nodded obediently.
Jiang Yu went out of the lounge, simply tidied up her style, and then began to shoot.
The dance competition this time was much more organized than the singing competition last time. This was because there wouldn’t be any fake dance in this competition, and no one would find a substitute to dance.
Therefore, if anyone danced well, then they danced well. If they didn’t, then it was bad.
It was Sun Miao’s turn. According to her, she was performing her own original dance and had already given up on the dance she had practiced last week. Instead of practicing other people’s dances, it was better to create your own and amaze the audience.
Jiang Yu waited patiently to see how Sun Miao’s dance would amaze the audience.
The music started, and Sun Miao began to twist her body. However, her so-called ‘original dance’ was difficult to describe in a few words.
Her movements were always out of rhythm, and her limbs were very stiff. She would even forget her movements halfway through the dance.
The audience was too embarrassed to stop her, so they could only endure the discomfort and watch Sun Miao dance. Only the audience in the bullet screen could say: “What is she dancing?”
“You call this an original dance? Even my sister’s third grade dance is better than hers!”
“How can you participate in the girl group competition with this level of skill? Are there really people who are blind and like this kind of thing?”
“With just this bit of strength, it’s better to go home and practice for a few more years. Don’t embarrass yourself.”
The bullet comments were all scolding Sun Miao, so it didn’t seem like anyone would vote for her.
Sun Miao didn’t know what they were thinking, but she wasn’t worried at all. Even if she had lost contact with Hu Jing, the internet trolls would still vote for her after they had taken the money.
Therefore, Sun Miao had a smug smile on her face.
Jiang Yu didn’t comment much on her dance. She just asked her to go down first and let the other contestants come up to continue the competition.
Sun Miao left the stage triumphantly, as if she could already see the light of victory.
When the match ended, the host began to announce the scores of each contestant.
Sun Miao’s results were still at the bottom, but she wasn’t nervous at all.
After announcing the scores, the host began to announce the votes cast by the audience. The votes were also counted in the score, but there was a unique way of conversion.
When the host read out Sun Miao’s vote count, his eyes widened as he read out the number in disbelief: “1.2 million votes!”
This number of votes immediately pushed Sun Miao into the top 20!
Jumping from the bottom of the top 100 to the top 20 was an unimaginable result!
The emcee finished reading the votes for the others and began to ask the routine questions. She directly turned the question to Sun Miao and asked: “Contestant Sun Miao, what are your thoughts on your votes?”
“Nothing much.” Sun Miao replied triumphantly. “I just think that there are still many people in this world who appreciate art.”
The emcee was rendered speechless by her words. She could only laugh dryly and say: “Indeed, the dance you performed was quite artistic.”
Then, she turned to the three judges and asked: “Do the three judges have any words of encouragement or suggestions for our contestants?”
Xu Ye and Xue Ran both followed the script and said a few words of encouragement, then they handed the right to speak to Jiang Yu.
This time, Jiang Yu did not say anything more formal than before. Instead, she looked at Sun Miao and asked: “Contestant Sun Miao, don’t you have anything to say about your votes?”
Sun Miao was taken aback, not understanding what Jiang Yu meant by that. “What do you mean by that? That was the audience’s vote for me, what do I have to explain?”
Jiang Yu said: “Your dance is difficult to describe in a few words. Whether it’s us or the audience, no one can appreciate your dance. As for the audience outside the stadium, I suggest you watch the live broadcast replay. Most of the comments in the bullet screen say that they don’t intend to vote for you. Then don’t you think that the number of votes you’ve gotten is a little strange?”
“What’s so strange about that?” Sun Miao asked, not thinking much of it. “You don’t appreciate art, but you don’t allow others to appreciate it?”
