Chapter 444 The Competition Begins
In a club.
Jin Chengchi, who was observing Fang Shirong and Han Zhenyu at a certain location, received a text message. His eyes narrowed slightly, and then he calmed down again.
The race was originally scheduled to start at 3 o'clock, but due to special reasons, it was slightly delayed. However, the audience did not notice anything because they left in a work vehicle and left from the west entrance which was not open today.
Coupled with Kim So-hyang's opening performance, the audience was naturally shocked and had no mood to pay attention to anything else.
First, they sang the national anthem a cappella. With their voice and singing skills alone, the entire stadium resonated and the sound was still so beautiful that all the audience were stunned.
The pink rabbit, who was originally worried about Zheng Xiuheng and a little absent-minded, was also dumbfounded.
The second song after the national anthem was an old song "Lying on the Sea", which was of course re-arranged. The overall style had not changed, but there were more pop elements and the accompaniment was stronger.
"I was born as the only life
Lying on the sea
Looking at the sunset
The waves painted by the turbid sunlight
Like tears washing away
The dazzling light disappeared
In the surging tide
The stars also lay down and fell asleep
My heart just flows like waves
Lying on the sea, I became a lonely water bird
Does the port understand the intention of the water?
Lying on the sea, I became a lonely water bird
Dibdili, Dibdibididib! "
Kim Taeyeon stood blankly on the runway, having forgotten about handing out gifts, and the small cannon in her hand that was spraying gifts also dropped down.
Because she had a very capable teacher, Kim Taeyeon's vision was quite high, but she was still somewhat shocked today. The person before her was a genuine Korean singer. The high notes, the voice that pierced the heavens, made her scalp tingle.
Likewise, the audience who had come to watch the artists play sports and see their idols were also stunned. With Kim So-hyang's increasingly frenetic singing style, the performance was just right under the circumstances.
Although both Zheng Xiuheng and Liu Xiye have said that singing high notes in every song can sometimes give people a sense of oppression, although it is not bad, it is too strong.
But that wasn't the case now. The stage set up on the grass was radiating the brilliance of Kim So-hyang. Through the large screen behind her, everyone could clearly see her. She attracted countless fans at this moment.
Looking at the senior on the stage, Kim Taeyeon even forgot the countless worries in her heart at this moment. She was completely immersed in it, looking at the stage with some admiration, so much so that she forgot to give away the cylindrical transmitter in her hand, and the T-shirts rolled into balls that were signed with the names of the "Infinite Challenge" members and antenna artists.
The dazed pink rabbit was not the protagonist at the moment. Except for the children calling her in the stands, everyone else was attracted by the opening performance, even though many people did not know the singer at all at the beginning.
"Great! No matter how many times I hear it, I feel like Teacher Suxiang and I are not from the same dimension!" Hong Jin Young, who was wearing a cheerleading uniform and looking at the stage at the entrance of the stands, said with some envy.
Three of the five teammates standing by were actors, so they just sighed. But the cheerleader Shin Ji had a dumbfounded expression. To be honest, she didn't know this singer before.
As for KARA's Nicole Jung...
"Ah? Smoking? Isn't that a bad habit?"
Hong Jin Young's face instantly turned dark. She always used to make others feel "uncomfortable", but ever since she met Zheng Nicole, whose Korean was not very good or even unfamiliar, she had suffered internal injuries several times.
"Wow!"
"ah!"
"President! Are you walking without making any noise?" Hong Jin Young was patted on the shoulder and was startled by the voice in her ear. She turned around and found that it was the president. She didn't care and just shouted directly.
Zheng Xiuheng grinned and said, "Ha, don't you usually like playing this scary game? Now I'll let you experience it. Prepare well, the first five games will be over soon, and then it will be your turn to perform. Although you don't have to be perfect, at least don't lose in momentum, especially..."
"you!"
Li Youli's body shuddered, and her face instantly fell. Then she turned her head and instinctively revealed an aggrieved expression. She asked helplessly, "President, you said this would have a good effect on my image, but I feel that besides the hard work and the pain in my joints, I really don't see any other good things!"
Zheng Xiuheng knew about Li Youli's complaints, but he didn't pay much attention to them, even now. However, looking at Li Youli's lifeless expression, Zheng Xiuheng smiled and said, "Of course there will be no good!"
"Hmm?" Li Youli looked at Zheng Xiuheng and blinked in confusion.
Zheng Xiuheng shrugged and said, "I'm just your boss, not your parents. I can arrange work and announcements for you, but I can't plan your life. Isn't this filming a great experience? Go in with a positive attitude. I think with your personality, you should gain a lot. But it seems... what you see is different from what I imagined. Besides filming and playing too many villains, don't you... eat?"
"Enjoy yourself! In two years, you'll be thirty!"
Zheng Xiuheng patted Li Yuli on the shoulder and walked out of the passage in the surprised eyes of others.
Baek Jin Hee and Park Bo Young on the side were looking at Zheng Xiuheng with surprise, especially Baek Jin Hee's eyes which were very strange.
"Does the Demon Guild Master sometimes have a point?"
Bai Zhenxi hurriedly shook her head to dismiss this idea, and at this time cheers were heard outside, and even shouts of "Encore" were heard.
However, Kim So-hyang still thanked the audience and waved as she walked off the stage, which also meant that the competition between Zheng Xiuheng and the "Infinite Challenge" members was about to begin.
"Wow!"
"Oppa!"
"Uncle Jae-seok!"
Amid the screams of the audience, Zheng Xiuheng also walked onto the runway and came to the front of the stage, which will also be the starting point of the first race.
Zheng Xiuheng, walking on the track, looked at the pink rabbit that was launching autographed T-shirts into the stands, then raised his head and looked at the stands filled with spectators.
The cheering audience suddenly saw Zheng Xiuheng's figure on the big screen, and soon the shouts turned into sounds of surprise, and many people whispered about Zheng Xiuheng's new image.
In fact, this is how the world is. No matter which circle or what the circumstances, the first thing two strangers look at when they come into contact is the face. Of course, men will occasionally look elsewhere, but in the end they still can't avoid the face.
Not to mention the entertainment industry. To put it bluntly, the ugly ones become comedians, while the good-looking ones become singers, actors, idols, and anchors.
Many people got to know Zheng Xiuheng through "Infinite Challenge". Coupled with Zheng Xiuheng's listeners and die-hard fans, people soon started shouting: "Xiuheng Oppa!"
Zheng Xiuheng usually thinks about how to disguise himself and what kind of image can prevent him from being discovered by passers-by, but at this moment he is truly moving forward under the attention of everyone.
Turning around and looking towards the stands on the left, Zheng Xiuheng smiled brightly and even waved his right hand, which made many fans in the audience scream. Because Zheng Xiuheng looked really handsome at that moment, unlike those male idols who pretended to be handsome, but he naturally exuded a sunny temperament. Coupled with his handsome and masculine features, he easily attracted the attention of the girls.
"Wow, the president looks so handsome today!" Choi Jun-hee couldn't help but shout to her friends. On weekdays, Jung Soo-hyung is sometimes serious and sometimes gentle. Although Choi Jun-hee and Lee Ji-eun admire the president very much, they are sometimes a little scared. But today she found that the president looks so handsome when he smiles.
Lee Ji-eun also nodded, but it was not like she had never seen a chairman like this before. When they first met, the chairman's smile made her feel warm, and he also gave her such a precious guitar. But then three "bad guys" appeared, and the chairman put away his smile. After they met again, it seemed that she had never seen a chairman like that before.
"I really want to take a photo with the president and upload it to my homepage!" Bae Suzy also spoke in a low voice. Now their homepage in the company is a personal page belonging to the Antenna Academy. It is completely used by themselves, and these little girls are gradually addicted to it.
"Dear audience friends, hello everyone, welcome to the "Infinite Challenge" decathlon challenge!"
At this moment, on the runway below, Yoo Jae-suk picked up the microphone again, and of course Kim Je-dong was also next to him. The two of them cooperated to begin introducing the order of today's competition, as well as some of the causes and consequences of the variety show.
Zheng Xiuheng just stood behind the two of them, with the other five people.
At 3:20 p.m., the first event, the 400-meter race, officially began. However, at this time, some reporters had already received reports that some artists were suspected of being injured. However, these are all natural things. In reality, there are no secrets in the entertainment industry. No matter how well it is packaged, there will always be people who don't believe in such beauty.
But people who believe in beauty are now watching the two runners on the track with great enthusiasm.
In the decathlon challenge, Zheng Xiuheng's first opponent is Haha, who calls himself a whitened version of Asafa Powell.
"Xiuheng! Can't you let me win?" Both of them were squatting in a ready position. As the one with the better athletic nerves among the six members of "Infinite Challenge", when arranging the candidates for the competition, the six had already tested the 400 meters. The result was naturally Haha won, followed by Noh Hongzhe and Yoo Jae-suk. The most important thing is that this is actually the tallest among the short ones. However, if he runs at his best, it should consume a lot of physical strength of Zheng Xiuheng. After all, even athletes will be equally tired after running like this.
However, as a variety show host, Haha naturally has to say a few words before starting.
But to his surprise, Zheng Xiuheng turned around and said with a smile: "Of course!"
"ah?"
"preparation!"
"Bang!"
