nAfter Shen Hanquan introduced the rules for this round of promotion, he began to announce the rankings.

n

nShi Xi stood next to him, and the two of them alternated to announce the trainees who had advanced.

n

nLooking at the list of trainees, Shi Xi was a little surprised.

n

nThere were some trainees in the middle. They were very strong, and their personalities weren’t bad either. However, their rankings were very low, and they hadn’t even advanced.

n

nOn the initial stage, the trainees who had been marked with an asterisk, regardless of their strength or popularity, almost all advanced.

n

nHearing the trainees who advanced either crying or laughing, Shi Xi sighed in her heart.

n

nPerhaps they themselves did not know how much effort their company had put in.

n

nThis was the market for capital selection.

n

nThe audience could always choose the few.

n

nWhen he announced the top nine, Shi Xi’s eyes lit up.

n

nThis ranking was truly unexpected.

n

n“The fifth place chosen by the Star Idol’s producers — Pei Jie!” Shi Xi smiled faintly as she announced Pei Jie’s ranking.

n

nLast week, Pei Jie was still in the top three, but this time, he had fallen to fifth place.

n

nAs expected, the ranking had changed, and it was precarious.

n

nPei Jie pursed his lips slightly and calmly walked onto the stage. He thanked the fans who supported him and expressed his hope. “The position I want is not just fifth place.”

n

nShi Xi tilted her head to look at him and nodded to herself.

n

nCompared to the first time she met Pei Jie, the current Pei Jie was much better at speaking and behaving.

n

nAfter Pei Jie expressed his thoughts, he walked to fifth place and took his seat.

n

nShen Hanquan announced fourth place.

n

nAfter that, it was time to announce the top three.

n

nShi Xi looked at her card. She didn’t expect it to be so coincidental. “Third place… Bai Cangyang.”

n

nWhen Bai Cangyang’s name was read out, all the trainees present were stunned.

n

n“Third place? How did he fall to third place?”

n

n“I thought he was first.”

n

n“Bai Cangyang was first every week before this, right? First straight is actually third place? Is there a mistake?”

n

n“…”

n

nUnder everyone’s incredulous gazes, Bai Cangyang maintained his poise and walked onto the stage to give his speech.

n

nHe was neither proud nor discouraged. He was strong when faced with strong opponents.

n

nShi Xi knew that Bai Cangyang was the C spot that the program team wanted, and Bai Cangyang had also accepted the script. Not only was he outstanding, but he was also hardworking.

n

nIf such a person wasn’t popular, then who was?

n

nFinally, it was time to reveal the top two spots in the first round.

n

nLi Jinfan, the sunshine big boy, was handsome and bright. He was born with vocal skills and worked hard to practice his dance, never dragging his feet.

n

nJiang Haiyu was a handsome choreographer who had changed careers. He was an excellent dancer and a leader-type member. He had a strong and overbearing personality, but he was still gentle. He was the team’s compass.

n

nBoth of them were very outstanding and popular trainees.

n

nThe other trainees held their breaths as they waited for the results to be released.

n

nShen Hanquan announced, “The trainee who obtained the first place in the voting for the producers of Star Idol is–”

n

nThe lights on the stage flickered, and the background music played, bringing the atmosphere to the highest point.

n

nShen Hanquan: “Congratulations, Li Jinfan!”

n

nAll the lights on the stage fell on Li Jinfan.

n

nAt that moment, the white lights fell on him, as if a god had descended.

n

nLi Jinfan exhaled and smiled slightly, looking at Shi Xi.

n

nHe was so outstanding. Sister Xi should praise him, right?

n

nHowever, Shi Xi just clapped according to the flow and said, “At the same time, congratulations to the second-ranked trainee, Jiang Haiyu.”

n

n“Please let Jiang Haiyu give his speech first.”

n

nThe speeches were all from the back to the front.

n

nLi Jinfan stared at Shi Xi, his heart heavy.

n

nWhy didn’t she congratulate him?

n

nAfter Jiang Haiyu finished speaking, Li Jinfan thanked his fans, his teachers, and even specifically mentioned Shi Xi.
