It was only then that many netizens remembered that the variety show had such a rule.
Actually, it's not their fault for not remembering, after all, it's a competition between strong contenders, who can guarantee to get three or even five first places in the whole show?
Many singers come here just to regain popularity and attention.
Singers like Wu Anjun, who go berserk as soon as they start, are truly unheard of.
Moreover, with the announcement of the second episode's results, Wu Anjun has already achieved two consecutive championships. If he wins again in the next round, won't he directly qualify for the semi-finals?
Thinking of this, many viewers and netizens felt a bit reluctant.
After all, they had just fallen in love with this incredibly authentic Wu Anjun on stage, but he was about to advance early. Who could they complain to?
"I really like singing, I'll try to get five first places and go straight to the finals!" Wu Anjun is indeed Wu Anjun, he doesn't know how to be subtle at all!
If it were other singers, would they make such bold statements?
"Then we look forward to Teacher Wu Anjun's next stage. One more question, will it still be an original next time?"
Qian Jin also breathed a sigh of relief. He was really afraid that Su Yu would suddenly say that after getting three consecutive championships, he would directly enter the semi-finals.
In that case, their newly risen viewership would surely decline.
Now he even regrets setting such a ridiculous rule in the first place!
Wouldn't it be better to keep Wu Anjun on stage, let him sing until the grand finale, and then reveal his identity gloriously?
"Original!" With Wu Anjun's final answer, the live broadcast of the second episode came to an abrupt end.
However, for netizens, the best news was that Wu Anjun would not be leaving the stage for now.
And what they had to do now, of course, was to download Wu Anjun's new song "Maple"!
When Su Yu got into the car and headed to the high-speed rail station, Qian Jin's production team was already in a state of jubilation!
Because the average viewership rating of the second episode of Who is the Singer broke 4!
Facing such a rapid breakthrough of 4 in viewership, even though Director Qian was mentally prepared, he still jumped up excitedly the moment he saw the results.
Wanting to surpass and actually surpassing are two completely different things, okay?
This is only the second episode of the variety show, and it has already broken 4. What about the next ten episodes? It would be difficult not to soar!
Subsequently, he faced a barrage of phone calls.
However, the first call he received was from Su Yu! This made Qian Jin a little surprised. Su Yu had just left, did he forget to say something?
"Teacher Wu Anjun!" Because there were still outsiders present, Director Qian directly called him by the name Wu Anjun, which was also a subtle way of telling Su Yu that there were people around him.
"Director Qian, find a convenient place to talk, I have something I need your help with," Su Yu replied.
Qian Jin was even more surprised at this moment. Su Yu asking him for help? What could he help with?
He was just a mere "gold-medal variety show director"...
However, Qian Jin still temporarily left the crowd and found an empty lounge: "No one's here, speak. If I can help, I won't refuse."
"Director Qian, I would like to request two substitute spots in the variety show for Xue Qing and Bi Huo from Tianxing Entertainment. Of course, they don't need to be in a very prominent position. I just want them to gain some popularity and exposure. It's fine if they fill in during the later stages of the variety show. I wonder if Director Qian can arrange this?"
Su Yu stated his idea. He had always remembered this matter, but there were too many people just now, so it was inconvenient to say it in person.
Qian Jin thought it was something major. If it were anyone else making such a request, he would directly refuse, stating that the personnel had already been set.
But Su Yu's treatment was obviously different!
He knew that Su Yu was nurturing his singers. He had watched the entire Yan Music welcome party before and knew these two people.
Moreover, Su Yu plans to let them come to gain some popularity, so how could he not prepare new songs for them?
At that time, Su Yu and Wu Anjun would compete on stage with their songwriting abilities. Just thinking about it made Director Qian's brain climax, okay?
"No problem! What's the big deal? Others can't, but I will definitely agree to Teacher Su Yu's request! However, the substitute singers for the first five episodes have already been decided. Teacher Su Yu can choose any of the later episodes! Do you plan to have them both debut in the sixth episode, or debut separately?"
Qian Jin readily agreed, even letting Su Yu choose which episode they would appear in. His attitude was enthusiastic, and his service was truly excellent!
"Then one in the seventh episode and one in the eighth episode! Aren't episodes nine and ten the comeback rounds? Let them participate in the comeback rounds then."
Su Yu made his decision after considering the competition format.
The eliminations in Who is the Singer are a bit crazy, with two people eliminated in each episode, so the comeback rounds need two episodes to barely have enough time.
Moreover, he brought Xue Qing and Bi Huo here just to gain some popularity.
The popularity brought by their debut new songs won't last long. It would be great for them to make an appearance at the end of October to consolidate their popularity.
"Alright! Just have them contact me directly then. Do you need me to hide Teacher Su Yu's identity from them?"
Qian Jin's service was truly excellent. He even thought of things Su Yu hadn't!
"Let's keep it a secret from both of them then! Thanks~!" Su Yu replied with a smile, then hung up the phone.
Qian Jin really wanted to say, I should be the one saying thank you, okay?
You are now the stabilizing force in our variety show! With you, we have the possibility of surpassing The King of Singers' viewership, okay?
After the call, Su Yu, who was on the high-speed rail, directly checked his prestige value.
Because he felt his prestige value was about to exceed 100 million!
Sure enough, just after midnight, his entertainment prestige value broke through 100 million!
And the voice of System Miss in his ear was incessant.
【Congratulations, Host, your entertainment prestige value has exceeded 100 million, completing lifespan mission five!
Reward distribution in progress... Body recovery progress 31%... 37%0%!
Congratulations, Host, you have received Silver Chest x 2! Reward distribution complete.】
【Lifespan Mission Six Activated: Achieve 1 billion entertainment prestige value within three years.
Mission Reward: 40% body recovery; 10 years lifespan; Golden Chest x 3
Mission Failure: No reward.】
The mission rewards and new mission indeed came all at once.
At this moment, Su Yu, sitting in the car, only felt a wave of fatigue wash over him, and then he fell directly into a deep sleep.
It should be a side effect of the system restoring his body, anyway, he didn't even have the chance to open those two much-anticipated silver chests...
And when Su Yu was woken up by Sun Daqiang, they had already arrived at Yanjing Station.
At this moment, Su Yu felt incredibly comfortable all over, and even his energy and strength had recovered a lot.
"homecoming." Su Yu said with a smile, and Sun Daqiang could clearly feel that today's Su Yu was a little different.
But he couldn't say exactly where he was different.
However, just as the two walked out of the station, they saw an unexpected scene.
