Chapter 571: Chapter 540: It’s Your Turn, Go Ahead_1
Different from “The Masked Singer”.
This time, the program is recorded over several days.
Because the songs that the songwriters come up with are all new, the singers need time to become familiar with them.
So for the next few days, Lin Yuan occasionally needs to go to the venue.
The program committee has also arranged a very interesting segment –
Singers who weren’t chosen can consult with various songwriters every issue. This avoids the embarrassment of the singers who weren’t chosen simply hanging around and doing nothing.
As a result, basically every day there would be some singers knocking on Lin Yuan’s door to self-recommend themselves.
Luckily, the distribution of tasks was such that Lin Yuan could just give instructions.
On the whole, it is indeed more laid back than “The Masked Singer”.
Meanwhile, during the singers’ rehearsals.
The show’s team, based on the content they’ve shot so far, has edited out the first preview for “Our Song”!
A full hour-long episode!
This is a completely new gameplay-

Every issue’s preview is recorded.
This process is very interesting.
Because we have fifty big-name singers, all in one place!
The interactions between the stars in the music industry, and the entire scheme of things is just one gigantic highlight!
Like the self-recommendation segment.
The quiet power struggles between the singers and their attempts to woo the songwriters are also very entertaining!
The official competition, however, will be broadcast live, interacting with the audience in real-time.
Audiences can influence the results of the competition while they watch the show!
Therefore.
When the “Our Song” trailer aired, discussions online blew up!
Everyone was talking about it!
Countless people exclaimed: The lineup for this show is so luxurious!
In reality, the lineup for “The Masked Singer” was also very luxurious.
But because the singers were masked, the thrill wasn’t strong enough.
Now, with the singers’ faces revealed, the audience is bombarded with big names upon tuning into the show. The visual impact is off the charts, as if they’re watching some music award ceremony!
It feels like the whole music scene is gathered here!
Additionally…
The setup of segments in the program also piqued the audience’s curiosity.
It’s a bit like the scripting of a reality show.
The high and mighty big-name singers in the face of top-tier songwriters are no different from ordinary people!
They even seem a bit…
Humble?
Turns out, the entertainment circle is also a workplace!
The singers are like employees, and the songwriters are like bosses!
Every “employee” strives to perform, hoping to attract the boss’s attention!
This huge contrast actually naturally generates interest in the audience.
The previous “The Masked Singer” has already proven that the show committee knows what interests the audience. What many people want from this variety show is to feel like big-name stars are seeking the favor of their “daddies”-
“Watching this show gives me the impression that the songwriters are really the ‘daddies’ of the singers!”
“You’ve got it wrong, these singers are also ‘daddies’ in front of ordinary songwriters, it’s only top-tier songwriters who can make big-name singers so humble.”
“Looking at it from Maestro’s perspective, there’s an inexplicably satisfying feeling.”
“I was laughing non-stop during the selection process. It’s the same procedure when I’m selecting my concubines at the club, the director is definitely an old hand!”
“Hahaha, the Pink Room of Admirable Fish is so lively!”
“…”
The program had set up a segment for singers to visit the songwriters, and Admirable Fish was visited quite frequently, so his pink room was shown on screen quite a lot.
Therefore.
Internet users jokingly referred to Lin Yuan’s room as the “Pink Room”.
Other songwriters were, of course, visited by many rejected singers as well.
The singers, upon entering the rooms, vie to showcase their talents, trying their hardest to perform in hopes that these top-tier songwriters would see their potential.
Furthermore.
The behavior of Lin Yuan picking Chen Zhiyu also sparked much discussion:
“Fish Papa is truly warm-hearted.”
“Chen Zhiyu was the first contestant eliminated from the Yu Dynasty, he has the weakest capabilities among all the fish, but Fish Papa didn’t dislike Chen Zhiyu in the slightest. Instead, he chose to collaborate with Chen Zhiyu in the very first issue.”
“Teacher Yin Dong is also interesting, only choosing those who are right, not those who are expensive, is he trying to become another Admirable Fish?”
Even Maestro is inclined to work with the King or Queen of Singing.
But the actions of Admirable Fish indeed have a certain influence, Yin Dong and Admirable Fish’s selection of singers is somewhat similar.
Moreover, the two share the same viewpoint.
Admirable Fish said, “Let the right person sing the right song.”
Yin Dong said, “Only choose those who are right, not expensive.”
These two viewpoints express essentially the same fundamental idea.
Together with Yin Dong’s remark, “this was taught to me by Admirable Fish”, has indeed prompted much thought from the audience.
Some even connect this to last year’s Battle of the Gods…
Lin Yuan, leading Jiang Kui, killed his way through the Gods.
Perhaps that was when Yin Dong realized that songs should choose singers based on their abilities and styles, rather than the singers’ fame and other factors.
“This definitely has me eagerly anticipating the competition between Admirable Fish and Yin Dong.”
“I really like the offbeat style of Admirable Fish and Yin Dong, everyone else chooses the King or Queen of Singing, but to see that so often becomes uninteresting.”
“Actually, it’s not that the other songwriters don’t understand this, but after all, it’s a competition.”
“It’s natural to choose the strongest singers to collaborate with in a competition, most people would likely make the same choice.”
“Moreover, during the viewers voting segment, the fans of the King and the Queen of Singing are much more numerous, they certainly have an advantage.”
“So the program committee’s planned competition is very fair.”
“Yin Dong and Admirable Fish, neither chose the King or Queen of Singing, Chen Zhiyu and Sun Mengmeng, their talent gap isn’t too worrisome either.”
“…”
The program committee claimed it to be a random pairing, but nobody really believed it.
What are the odds?
It just happened to be Admirable Fish and Yin Dong, these old rivals?
And the singers they chose happen to not be the King or Queen of Singing?
But even after everyone discovered it, they agreed that the program committee’s arrangement was good.
What everyone objects to isn’t interference in the competition.
What everyone objects to is targeted internal manipulation. If the program committee intervenes in certain matters for the sake of fairness, the audience is actually quite lenient.
Also, in the introductory program.
There was one scene that provoked laughter from the audience.
That would be during the singers’ rehearsals–-
Every other songwriter would instruct the singers to rehearse, shake their head, or provide direction, quoting all sorts of musical theories left and right.
Only Admirable Fish directly took the microphone, sang it once, then said to Chen Zhiyu:
“This is how it should be sung.”
Chen Zhiyu’s expression went from blank to bewildered, and finally to questioning his whole life, successfully bringing laughter to everyone. Some of the live-comments stated it rather aptly:
“Chen Zhiyu: My songwriter sings better than me, what should I do? Urgently awaiting for answer.”
“Chen Zhiyu: If you’re so good, you do it!!”
“Chen Zhiyu: You probably wouldn’t believe it if I told you, if my songwriter went on stage to sing, the other singers would have to kneel.”
“…”
Of course.
There is also a lot of discussion about the other songwriters and other singers.
Considering the reaction to the preliminary clip of “Our Song” that was broadcasted, the popularity of the show…
Is not weaker than “The Masked Singer” at all!
