The initial assessment scene was full of masked people, which looked a little scary at first glance. The chief judge of "Unknown Dancer" is Han Yang, who has debuted for six years and is an Asian gold medal singing and dancing artist with a total album sales of over [-] million.He stood in the center of the stage, holding the mic with one hand.

"Hello to the [-] shortlisted contestants. Welcome to the preliminary evaluation site of "The Unknown Dancer". I am your chief schedule instructor, Han Yang."

Everyone bowed and said hello, "Hello, tutor."

"The big furnace has just started to burn, and you are all standing on the same starting line. Even the program team and the filming directors are randomly divided into groups, that is to say——regardless of background, regardless of seniority, at this stage, no one can get extra treatment and attention.”

Han Yang's tone was very solemn. Standing among the contestants, Tang Xiu clearly felt that many people's emotions were ignited.Although the face is wearing a mask, the subtle body movements cannot escape the eyes of the ancestors.

"However——the purpose of the talent show is to select layers upon layers. In the end, it must be a very small number of people who stand out. Your equality is only short-lived. I hope you can seize this short-lived opportunity. The one that matters."

"Please remember that the brilliance on the stage will always belong to only one person. If you are not willing to be a foil, please work hard."

Zhang Siting next to him was so excited that his back tensed up.Tang Xiu couldn't help smiling, and looked at the man who was being chased by the lights in the center of the stage.Han Yang's sword eyebrows were particularly handsome, and his eyes swept across the 50 players in the field, "In the preliminary evaluation, 150 players will be left in the safety zone, and the remaining [-] players will face the first round of elimination in three days. -"

The contestants held their breath and their nerves tensed.

"100 people."

There was an uproar in the audience.Zhang Siting was shocked at the side and said: "No way, you just played so hard when you came up?"

Li Ruiming who was not far away said calmly: "It's normal. If there are two hundred contestants who can't be arranged, how can we cut this show?"

"That's too..." Zhang Siting finished speaking halfway, and glanced at Li Ruiming. Under the silver mask was a pair of eyes that couldn't see any emotion. He paused and swallowed his words, and subconsciously looked at Tang Xiu.

Tang Xiu smiled at him, and said in a low voice, "Don't worry about the Southern School of Martial Arts."

Standing on the high platform, Han Yang looked down at all sentient beings and smiled, "Then, the basic skills assessment begins. Everyone, please do your best."

The follow-up director wearing a mask soon took the initiative to find them. She circled ten people according to the list. Except for Li Ruiming, they were all in the same group in Tang Xiu's dormitory.He said to the guide, "Ten of you are evaluating at the same time, so you can get to know each other first."

The camera has followed, filming the reactions of ten people at close range.The youngest boy wearing a red mask said, "Hi everyone, I'm number 27, and I—" He paused at this point.

Zhang Siting said suddenly: "Have you noticed that the setting of this show is very confusing. We can't reveal our identities and names to the camera, so there is only..." He glanced at the old ancestor, saw no response, and pointed to his number plate Said: "I am NO.14."

The surroundings fell into a tacit embarrassment, and everyone laughed at the same time after a few seconds, even the camera carrying the machine couldn't hold back.

Wang Zhihuo took his own number plate in front of the camera, "Come on, everyone doesn't need to introduce themselves, let the camera take a picture of these numbers and it's all done."

"I am 24!"

"This is 69!"

"Number eight!"

Everyone yelled around, and only Tang Xiu was left standing next to the camera. The camera naturally turned around with the machine on its shoulders. The old ancestor was fully captured in the camera. The shirt was simple and restrained, and black jeans wrapped a pair of straight and straight legs. Like everyone else, the black-haired young man in the mask couldn't see his facial features and expressions, but he exuded a silent and stern aura around him.

With red lips slightly raised, Tang Xiu said to the camera, "Hello everyone, I am number 44."

No. 27, who was introduced at the beginning, suddenly said: "He has a voice changer, isn't he someone who has already debuted?"

"It's possible. I heard that there are already some people with a fan base participating. In order to ensure fairness, their microphones have changed their voices."

Everyone wowed, but the ancestor just smiled.In fact, two people in this group have met in the corridor before, they should know his identity, but they still have to pretend to be surprised in front of the camera.

He said to the filming director: "You can call me Sister Cai Cai, now I will take everyone to the assessment classroom."

The joyous people suddenly became serious, and consciously lined up to follow.Tang Xiu stood at the end of the line, the camera was next to him, and he was out of the frame so naturally.

Once outside the classroom, Zhang Siting gave Tang Xiu a hand, and said in a low voice: "Senior, stand a little forward, otherwise there will be no camera."

Tang Xiu smiled, "Everyone is a moving digital card, is it important to have a camera or not?"

Zhang Siting was taken aback, "That's right."

He thought for a while and then said: "That's not right, body and temperament can also mark a person, senior, you are so..."

But Tang Xiu shook his head and said, "I don't want fans to recognize him too early."

"Ah? Why? Using popularity early to gain attention is very beneficial to accumulating advantages later."

Tang Xiu smiled, "Let's wait for the top [-] to take off their masks. I want to give them a surprise, so as not to be told that they don't interact with fans."

Zhang Siting was dumbfounded when he heard it—he didn't dare to think about taking off the mask of the top [-], and he didn't use it at all despite having tens of millions of popularity. Instead, he wanted to create some surprises, which challenged his perception of the identity of an artist.But the man wearing the golden mask raised his red lips slightly, and smiled relaxedly and warmly. He seemed to be exactly the same as the rumored high-cold artist who went his own way, but was very different.

Someone seems to have said that Tang Xiu is one of the rare artists who doesn't care about his fans, he doesn't even have a symbolic act of creating a fan image.But at this moment, he really felt that this person is a favorite fan, he will not draw a lottery to sell cute selfies and return comments, but he knows what fans want, and gives satisfaction as much as possible.

After a while, Zhang Siting said something as if he was talking to himself, "You are handsome."

Tang Xiu smiled at him and patted his hand, "Come on for the evaluation."

Ten people entered the assessment room at the same time, and as soon as they entered, they saw Han Yang sitting with a woman.Wang Zhi gasped, and said in a low voice, "No way, Han Yang will be selected randomly for evaluation."

"He is very strict." Zhang Siting also had a bitter face.

Tang Xiu didn't speak, he looked at the woman next to Han Yang.Li Ziping seems to have introduced that this person is called Lu Lu, who debuted at the C position of the girl group, and went solo two years later, and is now working hard to get together in the direction of film and television.

Han Yang had a serious expression on his face, and Lu Lu smiled politely at everyone, "Hi, everyone, come in order from small to large numbers, two to three minutes per person."

Tang Xiu 140 is the last one in this room.The first performer was No. [-], a boy with shaggy hair and white skin wearing a black mask.

Everyone backed up and stood in a row. Number [-] took a deep breath and said with a smile, "Hello, instructors. I am contestant No. [-]. My basic skill demonstration is a set of breaking."

Han Yang took the mic and said expressionlessly: "Choosing breaking should be very confident in the floor movements. Okay, I look forward to your performance."

There are two mentors in front, cameras next to them, and nine contestants standing behind them staring at them. One can imagine that the pressure is very high.Number Eight took a deep breath, fell sideways and played a loop with one hand on the ground.He is not tall, and his floor movements are very light.Wang Zhi whispered: "This buddy can do it."

Tang Xiu didn't speak, but glanced at Zhang Siting beside him.Sure enough, Zhang Siting didn't make much fuss, martial arts practitioners could tell at a glance that No. [-]'s hands were shaking and his upper limbs were weak, so he needed to quickly switch movements to cover up his weaknesses.

After the 3-minute presentation ended, No. [-] gasped slightly, stood up and bowed respectfully, "My presentation is over."

Han Yang hummed, "Next."

The fast-paced process without comments made the contestants somewhat uncomfortable. The second person was more nervous than No. [-]. After he finished dancing, Han Yang said: "Basic Latin skills are average, and it is not suitable for the draft. If you can enter In the next round, I hope you can change the type of dance."

The audience was silent, the trainee was about to cry through the mask, and tremblingly bowed more than ninety degrees, "Thank you, mentor, I will work hard."

"next."

The ancestor stood in the corner, and could feel the tension of the people beside him.Probably because the pool of 200 players was too large, and the level of these players varied from good to bad, and the competition was not as fierce as he expected.

I don't know what Jiang Qiao and Xiao Xiaoxiu are doing now. This person and dog are always at odds, and if there is a quarrel, the scene will be difficult to control.

Thinking of this, the ancestor was a little distracted and sighed softly.

"Next, number 140 four."

Tang Xiu came back to his senses, a contestant had just turned around and walked down, his face turned pale.He glanced at Han Yang. Han Yang's expression was not good-looking, and he was even faintly angry.

"Hello instructors, I am No. 140 No. [-], showing a movement of my choice."

"let's start."

Tang Xiu's optional moves were actually adapted from the scene of Xiaobai dancing his sword in the sea of ​​flowers in the forest in "Fox Killing Terrace", adding some tougher and domineering elements to give full play to the advantages of his ancestor's strength and speed.

The old ancestor was slender and tall, and at the beginning of the game, he kicked sideways, his long legs piercing the air, with shocking power.Han Yang was stunned for a moment, thinking that he was here to fight, but in the next second, Tang Xiu's movements suddenly softened, his waist slumped, his upper body was folded down and stuck to his legs, the body of a young man in black with a golden mask Unbelievably soft.Without any props, he turned his right arm into a sword, separating and merging, a kind of beauty that people can't take their eyes off.

If it is said that this person does not have more than ten years of basic skills, Han Yang will never believe it.But he looked through the files, and the file No. 140 No. [-] clearly stated—Dancing career: two weeks.

Like kidding.

Tang Xiu's performance was shorter than everyone else's, ending in just 2 minutes.The ending movement is a fork with the back to the audience, which is more natural and smooth than professional ballerinas, and the black clothes are graceful and harmonious on the white ground.

Surprisingly, the man got up without using his hands to support him. He arched his ankles and slightly tapped the ground with his heels, and he retracted his legs and stood up in an instant.

"I'll go..." Wang Zhi elbowed Zhang Siting from behind, "Which martial art is he from?"

Zhang Siting shook his head, "I don't know, it's magical."

After taking notes, Han Yang raised his head and showed his first smile today, "It's very good, it's very easy to use the body."

Lu Lu also laughed, "The body proportion is good, and the strength of the lower body is amazing. I can look forward to your dancing with more power in the future."

Tang Xiu nodded slightly, "Thank you, Teacher."

"Some movements look familiar to me." Han Yang pressed his temples, frowning but couldn't remember, "I seem to have seen it somewhere, it's just recently, but it's not the same, but it's very familiar..."

Lu Lu smiled and said, "Mr. Han is already old."

Han Yang sighed, "Yeah, I'm old... I think your whole body feels familiar, but I can't remember it."

Lu Lu said: "He wears a voice changer, maybe he is an acquaintance."

Han Yang smiled, "I don't think I know someone who can play with his arms and legs so slippery."

The contestants behind him exclaimed in a low voice, but the ancestor smiled calmly, "We really haven't seen it before."

"It's okay, I look forward to the moment when you take off your mask." Han Yang glanced at Tang Xiu's number plate, "Number 140, I remember you."

After the performance of this group, the contestants retreated outside together.The camera has automatically and consciously started to focus on Tang Xiu. The ancestor took a bottle of mineral water and drank a couple of sips, listening to everyone's discussion.

Wang Zhi's performance is considered good. The choreography of "BabyDon't Cry" is very good, he can show all-round advantages, and he has no mistakes.Zhang Siting only showed a few sets of basic skills. In Tang Xiu's view, there is absolutely no problem, and there shouldn't be any problem. However, compared with others, it lacks the storyline of dancing.

The man in the red mask asked, "How many people do you think our team can get into the safe zone?"

Wang Zhi said, "The probability is one quarter, it should be two to three people in each group."

Another person sighed, "Whether it's two people or three people, 140 must have entered, and there are only one or two places left."

Tang Xiu never joined the discussion, Zhang Siting asked nervously: "Senior, do you think I can enter?"

Tang Xiu thought for a while, "It's hard to say, but your basic skills are good, so don't worry if you don't go straight in."

Just as he was talking, Lu Lu came out and said, "Now announce this group of players who will directly enter the safety zone."

Everyone held their breath, Lulu opened the notebook, paused, and read: "There are three players in this group who directly entered the safety zone, and they are: No. 140——"

"NO.14——"

Zhang Siting relaxed all of a sudden and smiled, Tang Xiu patted his hand, but when he looked back, he saw that Wang Zhi was even more tense.

"There's still number 69."

No. 69 jumped up and cheered, and punched the air alternately with his left and right hands.

Lu Lu smiled and closed the notebook, "Please enter the safety zone to the practice room on the top floor, and the other players will return to the initial hall to wait for regrouping."

The crowd dispersed one after another, Wang Zhi felt a little lost, and followed everyone back.Zhang Siting gave him a hand and hugged him, "It's okay, let's work hard for the next round, it's okay."

Wang Zhi took a deep breath, "It's a good thing that the two of you are here, I want to be happy."

"Dip whatever you want. Come on."

"Ah."

Tang Xiu watched Wang Zhi go, but deep in his calm black eyes, there was a trace of thought.

This person is very strange.At noon today, I heard that his basic dance skills are not good enough. Seeing how he usually walks, I feel that his chassis is flimsy, but there is no problem with the dance just now.That's fine, what's even more strange is that his performance just now was better than the other two, but he didn't make it.

"Senior, what are you thinking?" Zhang Siting patted Tang Xiu, "Let's go to the top floor."

Tang Xiu looked away from Wang Zhi's back and nodded, "Okay."
