196 Chapter 196. Mentor Selection
The styles of the five mentors were pronounced. The contestants who were good at rapping naturally thought of Su Yan, and those who were good at singing pop songs worshipped Chen Xi very much.
The difficulty was that each of the mentors had a limited number of spots. The competition between Su Yan and Chen Xi would be fierce, and most contestants would lose; it would be better to target the other three female coaches from the start.
But who would be the best choice?
Li Yang was a gold-medal manager in the industry, and her training in style, aesthetics, and typhoons was worth mentioning. Moreover, even if you did not learn anything, you would still have countless benefits in the future. The resources flowing from Li Yang’s fingers were not accessible to ordinary people!
Chen Tong could be considered everyone’s senior sister. As a talent show artiste, Chen Tong had more experience and could give the most comprehensive advice. However, Chen Tong’s performance just now was unsatisfactory; this made many contestants who had wanted to choose Chen Tong from the start hesitate.
Many people began to think about Ding Shan. Although everyone was more interested in Ding Shan, in the beginning, few people chose Ding Shan. Everyone knew that Ding Shan was the youngest movie queen of the generation, and her acting skills had been questioned in recent years, but it could not be denied that Ding Shan’s influence was undeniable. Moreover, after the incident a while ago, the misunderstanding was resolved, and her popularity was even higher.
The waiting room was in uproar when they saw Ding Shan’s figure appear in the camera. They could see Ding Shan in person. One had to know that Ding Shan was famous for being a loner in the past. She would only appear when acting; her sudden appearance on the variety show stage was so beautiful that it couldn’t be described with words. The contestants were all young people who were full of vigor. Who wouldn’t be excited?
However, even though they were excited about participating in the talent show competition, these contestants quickly calmed down. After all, these contestants weren’t kids who had just entered society. When they came to participate in the talent show competition, no one was without ambition; the competition system determined the importance of a mentor. Who would not want to go to the end with a strong mentor? Ding Shan was indeed beautiful, and her acting skills were good. However, what could she teach them on the stage of the talent show? Acting? It was useless!
That was why the contestants did not choose Ding Shan at the beginning.
However, this thought was quickly broken. Ding Shan’s song onstage completely shattered everyone’s prejudice against her. Who said that an actor could not sing well? Who said that an actor couldn’t participate in a variety show?
Ding Shan used her strength to prove to everyone that she still had many surprises waiting for the show to explore slowly.
Indeed, in the past, other than acting and advertising endorsements, Ding Shan rarely appeared in front of the public. Everyone saw the various roles that Ding Shan played, and they all ignored what kind of person Ding Shan was.
No one knew that Ding Shan could sing.
Then, did she have other skills that she did not show?
All the contestants were intrigued.
Although Ding Shan might not be the most professional singer among the five coaches, she was the most comprehensive.
Chen Xi and Su Yan were the help with singing skills, Chen Tong was the help with experience, and Li Yang was the help with style and temperament. Thinking about it carefully, only Ding Shan could combine all of these and give her singing advice; she also had the unique aesthetic skills of an actor. Moreover, Ding Shan had been an actress for many years, so her ability to perform on the spot must be excellent. There was nothing to say about her experience!
The more the contestants thought about it, the more they felt that Ding Shan was the most comprehensive coach. Many changed their minds and silently wrote Ding Shan’s name on the small card.
At the recording studio, everyone was waiting for the contestants to decide to perform on stage finally.
After a short break, Su Yan sat down at his phone in boredom. Chen Xi was busy confirming his performance with his manager and wanted to send a video to warm up his version. Meanwhile, Li Yang took out her phone and quickly processed her work. She kept making calls to see if the artistes she was responsible for had completed their work.
Only Ding Shan and Chen Tong were left sitting there. Ding Shan did not want to talk to Chen Tong, so she closed her eyes to rest and acted as if she did not want to be disturbed by strangers.
However, Chen Tong did not know what was good for her and insisted on coming over. “Sister Shan, are you tired? I told you. This recording variety show is not something that ordinary people can handle.”
