Chapter 606 Nana and the Golden Hairpin
On Sunday, September 1, there was heavy rain in Binhai due to the typhoon passing through. Pedestrians on the street were hurriedly walking, and no one wanted to stay outside the wet, cold and strong outdoors for even one minute.
"This is a mess. It's raining like this today. Can you be more unlucky? But God, no matter how hard it rains, I will not surrender to you!"
In the alley of Changping, a very young girl was busy putting on a raincoat that didn't match her, and then rode her little bicycle out. However, before she could go out, she accidentally bumped into the telephone pole because the raincoat was too big and blocked her view. The pain made the little girl cry.
The little girl's name is Nana. She is a high school student at Binhai No. 1 Middle School. She likes singing very much. When she is fine, she likes to hum a few words by herself. For this reason, she even begged her parents to buy herself a walkman for her song tape in the name of learning English.
She only learned that Binhai would hold a singing competition since there was an advertisement last week, which made her very happy and decided to attend anyway.
It was finally the weekend. Nana decided to get up early and secretly put on her makeup with her mother's makeup, but she thought last night that she could come to participate in the competition today or go on TV. This made her insomnia. She fell asleep until it was dawn. So when she got up, it was already very late, so she hurriedly washed up and went out.
At the beginning, Nana was not used to this heavy raincoat, but after a period of adaptation, Nana could ride well.
So Nana rode her bicycle along the Suzhou River and arrived at the Bund about forty minutes. She found the Fashion Square.
After parked the car, Nana hurried into the building with her raincoat, but as soon as she entered the door, she was immediately stunned by the scene in front of her.
Oh my God! Is this the New Year temple fair at Chenghuang Temple? Otherwise, how could there be so many people!
There was a crowd of people in front of Nana, which almost filled the entire fashion square. This situation completely shocked Nana, because it was not the first time she came to the Fashion Square. She knew very well how spacious the first floor hall of the building was. There was no second one in the entire Binhai. In Nana's own words, it was possible to have a football match here!
However, now this market square that is enough to open a football game has been completely occupied by a crowd of people. There are so many people in front that it is completely crowded. If there weren't a security guard at the door to leave a special place to enter, I'm afraid Nana wouldn't even be able to enter the door.
In Nana's impression, she has never seen so many people in addition to the City God Temple Fair every Spring Festival.
There are too many people, right? But this also shows the charm of singing. Otherwise, how could there be so many people attending the competition?
But then there was a scream from "brother" in front of me, and Nana knew that she had been slapped in the face. It was obvious that not all of these were here to participate in the competition, at least some of them were here to chase stars.
Sure enough, as Nana walked forward along the snake-shaped passage, she saw groups of star fans holding signs in front of the crowd jumping and screaming and roaring excitedly.
It’s these star-chasing fans who want to chase stars and go to other places. Are you upset here?
Nana has no good feelings for these star-chasing people, especially in today's important game, these guys are just standing in front to watch the stars. Isn't this occupying the pit and not shit?
But no matter how depressed Nana was, she had no choice but to come late? So she could only slowly follow the abortion and slowly go to the registration office.
The entire venue was surrounded in a circular shape. In the middle of the square, the square was also divided into two pieces by the stage. There were three star judges sitting in the stage area. Each contestant had a display time ranging from one to several minutes to the stage. The length of the time was controlled by the judges. Behind the judges was a cordon. Outside the cordon were the audiences who came here to watch the competition, but now most of them were occupied by the three fans.
On the back of the stage are contestants like Nana and the others. They line up to register through a snake-shaped channel. Registration is not expensive, but only after registering and getting their own participating numbers can they enter the contestants area and wait for the number to be called.
Nana kept queuing from 10 a.m. until after 10 a.m., she finally arrived at the registration office.
So the little girl began to do some low-pitched opening exercises such as various bubble sounds, as if she could register immediately and sing on stage.
However, the little girl was really unable to wait, because while queuing just now, she kept hearing the singing of contestants on the stage ahead and the comments of the three celebrity judges, which made the little girl feel itchy and wished she could grow wings on her own and fly to the stage to sing.
Nana is very confident in her singing skills. To her, some of the previous stages can be bad, and some are not worse than those she sang. As for the words of the three celebrity judges, Nana thinks their words sound very mean and harsh, but when she thinks about it carefully, she just plays a slant and says something about the edge, but doesn't mention the key points.
Maybe they are just perfunctory, after all, they have to listen to so many people singing a day.
Nana thought so in her heart, and at the same time, she thought how she would perform when she came on stage later.
But at this time, a commotion suddenly came from the front, and someone roared: "How can you be like this? Do you know how long I have been queuing here, but now you will give me such an answer? I don't accept it! Why don't you let us participate in the competition? We all came to sign up, who gave you this power..."
Nana's face turned pale when she heard these words and she was not allowed to participate in the competition. Why is this?
Nana's hot temper came up, and she ran over and pushed the people in front of her in a few steps, and also asked them angrily why they didn't allow them to participate. Then the staff told him that the people were full now and there was no time left for the rest of the people, so they could only wait for the next game to come again.
"Why do you have to wait for the next game? We have been waiting in line here for a whole morning. Now you tell us that we want us to come again next time. Are you playing tricks on us? If you don't have enough time, don't let us line up again. You are irresponsible now..."
Many people are still clamoring to question and insisting on the organizer to give an explanation.
Nana didn't follow her and she just stepped aside in a daze, unable to accept such a result. Why did she finally arrive soon and not have enough time?
Of course, it doesn’t mean that the next registration will not work. It’s just that I have worked hard for so long now, and it’s just a short shot. This feeling is very uncomfortable.
Just when Nana was feeling disappointed, a timid voice suddenly sounded next to her: "Miss, do you want to participate in the competition?"
Nana was stunned for a moment, then turned to see a thin and small girl who looked younger than herself. She pulled her sleeve and looked at herself nervously.
"Of course I want to participate in the competition, but unfortunately the registration is over. I can only come back next time." Nana said helplessly.
"Miss, if you really want to participate, I can give you my chance, but you must agree to me with a condition." said the girl.
Nana then realized that the little girl was actually in the contestant area, and then she heard that she was calling the next contestant's number. Nana glanced at it, but the little girl couldn't help it. She hurriedly took Nana's hand and said to her: "Miss, let's go together!"
The little girl wanted to form a group with Nana to participate in the competition. Nana was amused and laughed when she learned that the girl was in this condition, because in her current situation, unless the little girl was willing to give her the number to give her the opportunity to go on stage, the only way to combine was left.
The contestants in front end soon ended. Nana pulled the little girl to the stage. The little girl was very shy and kept looking down at her feet. She didn't dare to look up. If Nana hadn't held her hand, she would have been afraid that she wouldn't have dared to come up at all.
In the end, Nana generously reported their names: "Hello, three teachers, we are the Chaina combination."
Hearing this name, Zhang Rong and Fang Mei and Liu Minghua were both stunned. Then Fang Mei said: "Chai Na combination? This is a very careful name, but we still need to wait and see whether your singing is worthy of this name. I look forward to your performance."
With Fang Mei's words, they started to perform, but at this time Nana looked back at the little girl and said, "Sorry, three teachers, I like Teacher Zhang Rong very much. Before she went on stage, she told me that she liked her brother the most in her life."
Listening to Nana's words, the girl's face turned red and her head was buried lower.
However, when Zhang Rong greeted her with a smile, the little girl was excited and was about to jump out. But when the fans were screaming and shouting Zhang Rong's nickname, the little girl lowered her head without confidence.
"Okay, since your brother has said hello, can you start now?" Fang Mei asked.
This time Nana nodded and said she could: "The track we prepared was when we woke up from our dream."
This was a song that Nana and the little girl agreed on, and they all sang. There was no accompaniment in this competition. They needed to sing a cappella on the stage. They started singing a cappella, but when the song was sang "I knew it would be inevitable that I would be sad." The three judges hurriedly stopped.
After the call was stopped, Zhang Rong first asked: "How do you think you are singing?"
Nana said they sang very well, but Zhang Rong shook his head and said, "Very good? But I don't think you can sing at all. When you wake up from the dream, this is a very classic song. It represents women's attitude towards feelings, but I didn't hear any feelings in your singing. And you are a group, and it's not like two people standing there and singing dryly, just called a group!"
Zhang Rong pointed at the little girl: "Especially her, Chen Jinchai, do I doubt your throat is leaking? Why is your voice so weak and still floating? You..."
Before Zhang Rong could finish his words, the little girl burst into tears: "I'm sorry, brother, my voice is just leaking. I know that my singing is so ugly. It's really sorry for you to feel uncomfortable!"
Nana also got angry at this time: "Why do you say to her? Do you know that her throat has undergone surgery? You said that her throat leaks, do you know that your words hurt the deepest wound in her heart? She may not be able to sing, but do you know why she came to participate in the competition? Do you just want to meet you for the last time? Are you such an idol? You are so disappointing!"
Nana then said to the little girl: "Jinchai, such a person is not worthy of being your idol, let's go."
Nana said and took the little girl off the stage, but suddenly someone called them.
"Wait a moment!"
