Chapter 1244 1344. Exchange order
"Too cunning, Nie Wei is the real old fox."
"I was wondering why they didn't rehearse. They've been practicing for many days. Is this a foul?"
"This is definitely a foul. We strongly request that Cheng Kun and Nie Wei's group be disqualified from participating."
On the day of the last song festival recording session, except for Cheng Kun and Nie Wei's group, other members and team members immediately started to denounce them as soon as they saw the two.
Ma Dong also complained loudly to the directors of the program group: "Look at the people in their group. In addition to Nie Wei, there are Shu Chang, Alan, and Zhou Duoduo. There are four guests. Why do we only have one guest?"
"You can also find more." The director replied indifferently.
Ma Dong obviously didn't expect such an answer. He was choked and stunned. After coming to his senses, he excitedly pointed at the director who had just answered him and said, "Do you think I don't dare to find someone? Do you believe that I can find all the other ten members of HG?"
"I believe it, go ahead." The director who answered him was still the same director, and his tone was still indifferent. Ma Dong was so choked that he almost fainted.
It is definitely impossible to find someone now. It's not that we can't find someone. The key is that everyone has developed a tacit understanding with each other since the creation of the song. If someone is temporarily inserted, it may not help, but will hinder us.
Of course, Ma Dong and others are making such a fuss, not because they are really jealous of Nie Wei, but just want to strive for some stage effects, such as free fireworks.
It's a pity that the program group is so stingy. They are famous all over the country. How can they agree to Ma Dong's request? It's impossible.
Ma Dong and others' plan failed. Seeing that the directors of the program group looked at each other with strange eyes, gritting their teeth, as if they wanted to tear each other apart.
But it was useless. The director who made Ma Dong grit his teeth stood up again.
"Next, the performance time of each group will be announced. Please listen carefully." Following the director's words, the few people who were making faces also stopped joking.
"On July 28th, starting at 7 pm, on the second main stage, there will be a special performance of our "Infinite Challenge" Song Festival. We have provided a map here. The second main stage is here." While the director was speaking, two staff members came out with a map.
Everyone quickly gathered around. Xie Na saw the second square on the map and suddenly said, "Isn't this the stage for our rehearsal?"
"That's right." The director replied with a smile.
In fact, the best stage of the Star Music Festival is the first main stage. Whether it is various effects or sound equipment, they are all the best in the world. Of course, the second main stage is not bad, but it is still a little weaker than the first main stage.
As a variety show, it is naturally impossible for the main show to steal the show. The No. 1 main stage is reserved for the performances of first-class bands and singers. In fact, the reason why the No. 2 main stage was obtained this time is because the show itself belongs to the Star Group.
After knowing the location of the stage, Luo Xiaozhu suddenly whispered a few words in Ou Di's ear. After listening, Ou Di immediately asked a very critical question.
"How is our appearance order arranged?"
"It is decided by drawing lots." The director replied, waving to the side, and the staff member who had just taken the map appeared again, but this time he came over with a lottery box.
Facing the lottery box, the members of Infinite Challenge, who have always been striving for the first place, suddenly became humble.
"You draw first?"
"No, no, no, Mr. Ma, you are the senior, you draw first?"
"No, no, we have to take care of the juniors, so you should draw first, Yuchi."
"How about ladies first, let Xie draw first?"
"What about Xie?"
"Sister Na said that people have to go to the toilet."
Everyone was polite to each other, and finally all eyes were on Nie Wei and Cheng Kun.
"You draw first." Ma Dong raised the lottery box in front of Nie Wei and said, Cheng Kun subconsciously asked back: "Why should we draw first?"
"Who asked you to find so many helpers!" Chen Jianzhou said confidently on the side: "You have so many helpers, so you should draw first."
The order of the lottery is very particular. The first one to draw is destined to suffer the most. This is the same as inserting a pirate barrel. If the first one to draw is unlucky enough, he may draw the worst one in the first draw.
Then the players behind will naturally avoid the worst one.
Of course, this lottery order is actually meaningless. Luck is more important, so Nie Wei stopped Cheng Kun from making excuses and took the initiative to draw the order of performances first.
Everyone watched Nie Wei put his hand in and stirred it in the cardboard box.
"What are you dawdling about? Just draw one quickly." Xie Na, who came back from the toilet, urged.
Nie Wei was obedient enough. As soon as Xie Na finished speaking, he took out a ball, took a look at it, and immediately held it tightly, covering the side with the number in his palm. Everyone clamored to see it, but Nie Wei refused to give it to them.
"You guys draw it. You will naturally know what order we are in when you draw it in the end." Nie Wei said, holding the ball tightly.
Ou Di kept staring at the ball in Nie Wei's hand, looking around to see something, and provoked him: "You don't show us, did you draw the first place?"
"Yes, it must be the first place, otherwise why don't you show us?"
"You must be afraid that we will ridicule you. It's okay, just show us, we promise not to laugh, hahahahaha."
"Not one." Nie Wei smiled and shook his head, and everyone was stunned. Obviously, they didn't expect Nie Wei to deny it so straightforwardly.
"If it's not one, why don't you dare to show it to us? I think you are just bluffing." Ma Dong said like a lemon after he came to his senses.
He was really a little guilty. After all, Nie Wei didn't look like a liar, but Nie Wei's acting skills in the show were too good in the past, and he, an old fox, couldn't figure out whether Nie Wei was telling the truth.
Facing Ma Dong's questioning and provocation, Nie Wei smiled and said nothing.
Seeing that Nie Wei refused to give in, everyone had no choice but to continue drawing. Soon, amid cheers and annoyance, only Ma Dong's group had not been drawn. What a coincidence, the second, third, fourth and fifth were all drawn, leaving only the last six, of course, it could also be one.
Only Ma Dong's group had not been drawn at the scene. This old fox went back and forth in the lottery box for a long time, but did not make a move. Instead, he kept looking at Nie Wei.
The rest of the people who had finished drawing urged loudly, all of them just wanted to watch the fun.
Anyway, everyone had drawn, and the remaining ball was either one or six. The latter would go to heaven, and the former would go to hell. But obviously one of Ma Dong and Nie Wei must be "unlucky". When the result came out, everyone would just laugh at it.
At this time, even Xie Na, who drew the second place, couldn't help but joked: "I originally thought I was unlucky to draw the second place, but now I am about to witness the most unlucky group. I suddenly feel so happy."
Ma Dong hesitated for a long time, and suddenly said: "Or I won't draw, Nie Wei, you can announce your number."
"Really?" Nie Wei asked with a smile.
Ma Dong asked Zhang Liangying, who was also a little nervous. The two of them discussed it and decided to leave it at that. In Zhang Liangying's words, it is better to believe that the enemy's luck is worse than to believe in your own good luck.
Seeing this, Nie Wei smiled and shook his head, and handed the ball to Cheng Kun who was standing beside him. Cheng Kun took the ball, took a quick look at it, and then closed it immediately.
"I saw it, it's 1." Ou Di, who was sitting on the upper left of Cheng Kun, suddenly shouted.
Ma Dong couldn't hold back his joy when he heard it, and asked expectantly: "Is it really 1? Are you sure?"
Ma Dong just asked subconsciously, but after asking, he found that Ou Di looked hesitant and answered him in a very uncertain tone: "I didn't see it clearly, but I saw a vertical line."
"Nonsense, seven also has a vertical line." Chen Jianzhou rolled his eyes.
Ma Dong covered his heart, looking like he was in pain. He didn't know what to say at this moment.
Seeing Cheng Kun's face full of smiles, Ma Dong felt bad.
He didn't care about worrying anymore, and quickly took out the last ball from the lottery box. When the number on it was exposed, there was a gloating laugh at the scene.
"It's really 1, Ma Dong and his team got the first place."
"This luck is unbelievable, they are so cunning, they got themselves into trouble in the end."
"Nie Wei and his team are so lucky, they got the last place in the first round?"
When everyone laughed at Ma Dong, they also said something sour to Nie Wei and Cheng Kun, because their group looked the strongest and they got a very good order, so everyone felt a little unbalanced.
Nie Wei seemed to have offended everyone, so he discussed it with Cheng Kun.
After the two discussed for a few words, Cheng Kun stood up with the number in his hand: "In fact, we don't really want to sing last, if anyone wants to sing seventh, you can switch with us."
"I'll switch!" Ma Dong raised his hand immediately, but before he finished speaking, Xie Na, who got the second place, also raised his hand, and Chen Jianzhou, who got the third place, hesitated for a moment, and also raised his arm at the instigation of his wife.
Obviously, the people in the front row all hope to be able to sing at the back.
"Cheng Kun, are you really going to change, right?" Ma Dong grabbed the last glimmer of hope and asked urgently.
"It's true. Nie Wei and I have discussed it, but we only have one number, so we can only change it with one group of people. Anyone can change with us." Cheng Kun answered affirmatively.
As soon as Cheng Kun finished speaking, Ma Dong immediately pointed at him and said to the camera on the side: "Look, everyone, this is what Cheng Kun said in person, and the evidence has been left. If they don't change it later, they will lose their trust in the audience across the country."
After saying that, Ma Dong was about to change the number with Cheng Kun, but before he walked to Cheng Kun, he was stopped by Chen Jianzhou and Xie Na.
"What are you doing?"
"I spoke first, so naturally I changed it."
"Who said that? Ask Cheng Kun and Nie Wei what they mean? Whoever they say to change with, we will change with."
None of the three people gave in, and the situation was deadlocked. Ma Dong thought about it and realized that Cheng Kun and Nie Wei really needed to stand up and take charge of the situation.
But just as he was about to speak, Nie Wei smiled and said, "We don't care. You can discuss it among yourselves. Just tell me who will be replaced in the end. If it doesn't work out, you can play rock-paper-scissors? Palms and backs of hands?"
"Isn't this too hasty?" Ou Di's partner Luo Xiaozhu commented while laughing and holding his stomach. He laughed so hard that he almost choked.
"I just made this suggestion casually. Anyway, there are three unlucky people. Why not compare who is the most unlucky? If Ma Dong is the last one twice in a row..."
"Pfft, pfft, you crow's mouth, I'm very lucky, and I'm blessed." Ma Dong interrupted Nie Wei hastily, and the scene was filled with laughter again.
After discussing for a long time, several people finally decided to use rock-paper-scissors to decide the winner according to Nie Wei's method.
It was just that it was agreed at the beginning that one round would decide the winner, but Xie Na, who lost the first round, cheated, and it became a best-of-three rounds. Then Ma Dong, who lost, cheated, and it became a best-of-five rounds. Seeing that it was going to be endless, Nie Wei decisively called a halt and asked them to decide directly by the palm and back of the hand. The one who came out alone would be the combination that exchanged the performance order with them.
In the end, Xie Na was lucky and became the only winner in the first round. Cheng Kun also gave the number 7 ball in his hand to Xie Na as promised.
In this way, Cheng Kun and Nie Wei's group held Xie Na's number 2 ball.
Ma Dong was very disappointed, even more disappointed than before. Who asked them to perform in front of Nie Wei? You know, Nie Wei and Cheng Kun's group is already recognized as the strongest band. The members of the group have popularity and singing skills. The key is that Nie Wei's songwriting ability is too strong.
For various reasons, no one wants to perform near Nie Wei's group.
Now not only Ma Dong is uncomfortable, but Chen Jianzhou, who is ranked third, is also very panicked. At this time, Nie Wei suddenly asked Ma Dong again: "Brother Ma Dong, do you want to change? I will change your number one for the second one?"
Ma Dong was stunned, and before he could reply, Chen Jianzhou on the side immediately instigated him: "Change quickly, this must be changed."
"Really change?" Ma Dong asked tentatively.
Although the first and second performances have to be next to Nie Wei, it is better to perform in the evening than to be the first.
"Unconditionally?" Ma Dong asked again tentatively, looking at Nie Wei's malicious smile, he always felt that the other party would dig a pit for himself and let him jump.
If Nie Wei knew what Ma Dong was thinking, he would really hit him in the face with the ball.
He really didn't set a trap for Ma Dong. He just wanted to perform the song in the first order to bring it to the fans.
Ma Dong finally couldn't resist the temptation to change the order and took the second ball from Nie Wei. He was so cowardly during the whole process. He had four big words on his face, and he was uneasy.
Fortunately, Nie Wei didn't say anything until the exchange was over.
Everyone can only understand that Nie Wei and Cheng Kun are too strong and don't care about the ranking, so they want to perform early. After all, some singers like to warm up.
