Li Mubai discovered that, aside from himself, Fan Chengcheng still hadn't found anyone to form a team with.
Perhaps it was because he was too normal!
Li Mubai pondered for a moment, then smiled and said, "Well, it seems the two of us are quite destined to be together!"
"Congratulations to all trainees on successfully forming your teams. You now have five days to rehearse your performances. During this period, you can also choose mentors to help you. We look forward to everyone's performance!"
As the host finished speaking, the entire lounge relaxed. Soon after, people began leaving the lounge to head to the dance studios to start choreographing their performances.
Li Mubai seemed quite relaxed. After all, with his current strength, he didn't need to worry about the public performance at all.
Over the next few days, he just needed to build a good tacit understanding with Fan Chengcheng.
Fan Chengcheng, on the other hand, followed closely beside Li Mubai and asked anxiously, "Li Mubai, what kind of performance should we put together?"
Li Mubai thought for a moment. "Can you dance?"
In terms of dancing, having studied it for half a year, Li Mubai's foundation wasn't too bad, but compared to his current singing ability, there was still a gap.
Using one's own weaknesses to fight against another's strengths was not a wise move.
Fan Chengcheng nodded. "Ever since I was little, my older sister made me learn dance. I should be pretty decent at it."
Looking at Fan Chengcheng's confident expression, Li Mubai continued to ask, "Then how is your singing?"
Fan Chengcheng shook his head. "There's definitely no way I can compare to you."
Li Mubai thought for a moment and said, "How about this, I happen to have a song that fits this stage very well. We'll choreograph a dance, and you can back me up with the dancing. Taking the upcoming public performance should be no problem at all!"
"Great, let's go right now. Should we go look for Mentor Zhang Yixing?" Fan Chengcheng was clearly excited. Immediately after, he saw Li Mubai turning to leave with a lack of interest, and asked in surprise, "Li Mubai, where are you going?"
Li Mubai waved his hand. "Let's call it a day. I have to go back and live-stream. If I don't go, the fans will start getting impatient!"
With that, Fan Chengcheng watched as Li Mubai actually left the lounge and headed toward the dormitory building.
Returning to his room, Li Mubai directly started his live broadcast.
He originally thought that starting a stream at this time wouldn't attract many viewers, but to his surprise, his fans did not let him down.
The moment the broadcast started, five or six thousand fans poured directly into the stream, eagerly asking Li Mubai about the show.
[Toast Bubble: Mubai, have you been working out lately? Hurry up and let me do a visual check! Ecchi emoji]
[Falling Star: I suddenly realized that without the streamer keeping me company, my meals don't taste good anymore. Streamer, promise me you'll always stay with me!]
[Hide and Seek: Brother Mubai, I want to go on a date with you!]
[Why Is Your Face So Red: Streamer, you're definitely going to debut in the C-position this time! I specifically went to draw fortune sticks for you these past few days!]
Looking at the screen flying with bullet comments, Li Mubai interacted and chatted with his fans.
[Spaceship × 10]
[Thank you Hide and Seek for the ten spaceships!]
[Porsche × 10]
[Love Heart × 999]
Soon, the entire live stream interface was flooded with gifts sent by the fans.
Meanwhile, in a university girls' dormitory,
Liu Rui was frantically clicking the gift-sending interface of the live stream room.
At that moment, three girls walked in. "Liu Rui, it's a holiday today, let's go eat a big meal!"
"Yeah, yeah! Seeing you looking so gloomy these past two days, it'll be good to go out and have some fun!"
"In this world, only handsome guys and good food cannot be let down!"
The other three girls nodded repeatedly as well.
Liu Rui didn't even turn her head, keeping her eyes glued to Li Mubai's live stream. "I'm not going, I'm not going! My little frog cub has come online again, you guys go ahead!"
"Frog cub?" A girl looked confused for a moment before exclaiming in sudden realization, "Li Mubai started streaming?"
|"No way? What's this 'frog cub' reference? Am I falling behind the times?"
Facing the questions from the girls walking up to her, Liu Rui smiled happily, pointing at Li Mubai on the stream. "I'm experiencing the joy of raising a frog myself, do you want to join in?"
Once Li Mubai started streaming, Liu Rui instantly seemed like a different person—radiant and cheerful, leaving her three roommates completely baffled.
"No thanks, no thanks. Your Ladyship drops tens of thousands in tips on a whim, we can't afford to raise this frog!"
Watching her three roommates shake their heads repeatedly, Liu Rui chuckled. "You guys go have fun, and bring me back some food when you return."
......
In Li Mubai's live stream room.
[Fool Doesn't Say Sarcasm: Mubai, I heard from the director that you were assigned to Group A this time? You really gave us a huge surprise!]
Seeing that it was Wang Xin, Li Mubai smiled and thanked her once again.
Wang Xin left just one sentence and then went straight offline.
Yet it was like throwing a stone into calm water; the live stream instantly boiled over.
[My god, Brother Li is playing for real! He actually joined Idol Producer?]
[Brother Li is way too fierce! This is only the first performance, and he's already pulled away from those other trainees. Blindly worshipping Brother Li!]
[When Brother Li was singing in the live stream before, I knew he would definitely make it, he just lacked an opportunity. Now the opportunity has arrived, and I feel like Brother Li will have a place in the future Mandopop music scene!]
......
The next day.
After finishing a simple morning jog, Li Mubai arrived at the dance practice room, where Zhang Yixing was coaching a few trainees.
Upon seeing Li Mubai, many of them flashed looks of disdain.
A few minutes later, Zhang Yixing briefly demonstrated the choreographed dance to a trainee.
"The core of this dance is right here. Did you get it?"
As soon as these words were spoken, the surrounding trainees all wore troubled expressions and shook their heads.
"No way, no way, the movements are too complicated, I simply can't remember them!"
"I remembered them, but my body just can't keep up. Mentor Zhang's routine is way too hard!"
"If we pick this choreography, never mind three days, we might not even learn it in five days. If we aren't familiar enough with it by the public performance, we're going to make fools of ourselves!"
"......"
Seeing the bitter expressions on the faces of the trainees below, Zhang Yixing noticed Li Mubai, who had walked in not long ago, and asked with a smile, "Trainee Mubai, what about you?"
Li Mubai waved his hand. "I'm okay at singing, but my dancing is a bit lacking!"
At this moment, some trainees immediately chimed in with sarcastic remarks.
"Trainee Mubai, aren't you the number one in Group A? How can you not know how to dance?"
"Yeah, this show isn't just about being able to sing."
"If you want to sing, why didn't you go to The Voice? Bro, you walked onto the wrong set!"
Hearing the sarcastic remarks all around him, Li Mubai smiled and stood up calmly and steadily.
"Mentor Zhang Yixing, how about... I give it a try?"
