62 to 134

Final votes: 440 to 436, Group 1 wins.

Kwon Shiqing closed her eyes and applauded the victorious Group 1. Kim Minju and Li Caiyan next to her were crying because of the huge gap between their votes and the other side. Even the captain, Kwon Eunfei, also shed tears.

This result made people feel helpless. The two highest scores of both groups were in Group 2, but they still couldn't change the established result.

The members of Group 1, who had become friends during the practice, gathered together to comfort Group 2, who had lost.

After the first performance, all the trainees had to face a short separation.

There were a few short gatherings in the middle, except for the debut press conference, because they had to record various highlights and program materials.

Before the first performance, she and her roommates would almost never see each other again.

//

The first performance was full of trainees one after another. Kwon Shiqing walked to the studio and sang the lyrics of I.O.I's debut song, "CRUSH."

"The signal light is red, I am GREEN.

LIGHT”

The lyrics included the online name she used when she participated in the singing variety show, GREEN.

LIGHT. She hoped to get a good result. Kwon Shiqing blew on the gun barrel made with her fingers. Then, she couldn't stand her own nausea and quickly ran back to her seat.

She had watched the first four episodes on time. After the stage of the theme song was announced, she had a certain amount of discussion.

And the previous editing was very friendly to her. Not only did it include her and Kwon Eunfei teaching in the small practice room, but it also included the scene of her and Kwon Eunfei teaching in the small practice room.

She thought there were no cameras in the hall, and it even showed the training scene in the hall.

In the blurry monitor, she stood in front and danced. Several trainees wearing different colored practice clothes followed behind her and practiced.

The ranking of the first episode was beyond her expectations. She was ranked eighth among all the trainees.

At the end of the second episode, she fell to eleventh place, and in the third episode, she rose to fifth place.

She had watched Playing with Fire 2's stage many times, but because the voting period ended the next day, she couldn't guarantee that she would be able to make it to the next stage. The best result would be to stay in the performance group.

"Next, we will announce the 45th trainee with a total of 103611 votes. HKT48's … Biwei Homura trainee. In the group evaluation of 'Playing with Fire 2', she made a handsome performance with her cute appearance."

Kwon Shiqing stood up and hugged Homura after she walked over. Since Homura appeared here, if there were no accidents, all the members of Team Playing with Fire 2 would enter the next competition.

As expected, Kim Minju ranked 16th with 307334 votes, Li Caiyan ranked 11th with 368218 votes, and Kwon Eunfei ranked 6th with 507633 votes.

"Next, we will announce the fifth place trainee, with a total of 530449 votes from Playing with Fire 2."

The camera moved to focus on her and Gong?

D Ryo.

"Her excellent performance on stage made her a hot topic trainee with more than a million direct votes."

"Shi Qing?

D Ryo?

Both of them seem to have more than a million direct votes. "Li Caiyan and Kwon Eunfei exchanged information with the person in the middle." Ah, I don't know. It's so hard. "

Kwon Shiqing and Gong?

They looked at each other at the same time.

"— — Kwon Shiqing trainee, congratulations.

Kwon Shiqing trainee's appearance and strong vocal and rap skills not only won the recognition of the instructors and trainees, but also the selfless character of teaching wholeheartedly was discovered by the people of National Production. For the first three weeks, her ranking has been in the performance group.

Kwon Shiqing trainee, tell us your thoughts. "

"Hello everyone, I'm THE.

BLACK

LABEL trainee Kwon Shiqing. First of all, I have to thank the people of National Production for taking care of me for being able to get so many votes.

At the same time, I'm very grateful to the trainees of Playing with Fire 2 who have always encouraged and tolerated me. Eunfei, BiWei-chan, Gong?

D Ryo, Caiyan, and Minju, I'm very grateful to all of you.

I still have a lot of shortcomings, and I don't know if I'm worthy of my current ranking, so I can only repay my colleagues and the people of National Production by constantly improving. Please believe in me.

Thank you very much, everyone. "

"The people of National Production and I are very much looking forward to the future of Kwon Shiqing trainees. Please take a seat."

Sitting in the fifth place, Kwon Shiqing finally felt at ease.

Fortunately, her ranking didn't drop out of the performance group because of the late broadcast. Otherwise, she wouldn't have the face to face Consort Han and Song Changyeol's manager.

Fortunately, her ranking didn't fall too low and she wouldn't be digested by people who didn't like her. She also didn't climb too high and become a target.

Perhaps it was because of her sensible performance during the rehearsal for Playing with Fire, but she received an angel edit for the first four episodes in return.

"For the first publication ceremony of Product 48, only the fourth place, third place, second place, and first place are left.

It's now public that the people of National Production have chosen the four trainees to be the first substitute. "

All the trainees present knew who these four people were.

Pledis Li Jiaen, HKT48 Palace??

D Ryo, Ann Yujin, and Zhang Yuanying from Starship.

"Among these four trainees, there's the protagonist of the first place."

Among the four trainees who accepted Li Jiaen?

Quan Shiqing lowered her head and whispered to Cui Yina, who was in the tenth place.

"I think it's Sister Jiaen. She's really popular."

"No matter who the first place is, the members of Playing with Fire have all entered the next round. I'm really happy," Choi Yena answered enthusiastically.

"Who will be the first protagonist of the first publication? Now, we will begin to publish the results given by the national producers from the fourth place."

"This trainee is from Playing with Fire. She's the trainee who received an A grade in Nekkoya's rating re-evaluation.

She has a total of 532273 votes — — "

"HKT48 Palace??

D Ryo trainee, congratulations.

HKT48 Palace??

D Ryo trainee is the center of Nekkoya. After the National Production became familiar with her, she worked hard to cope with the evaluation and showed the possibility of improvement. Congratulations. "

And the one who won first place in the first release ceremony was Li Jiaen trainee, who no one was surprised.

//

After the first release ceremony, the rest of the trainees started to work on new projects and dormitories.

The vocal coach Shōyou was in charge of the project. Her appearance attracted cheers from the trainees.

"Long time no see. How's everyone?"

"Nei!"

"Today, I'm representing the National Production Team to present everyone's next evaluation project.

Last week was the first release ceremony, right? The National Production Team voted in person. Out of the 96 trainees, the first to 60th place survived. Our dream of becoming an international girl group will continue. "

"From now on, the votes of all trainees will be reset. In other words, everything will be restarted.

HKT48's Murakawa Hiromi, what was her ranking in the first release ceremony? "

"31st place."

"If the next release ceremony still has this ranking, she will be eliminated.

In other words, in the second release ceremony, the first to the thirtieth place will survive.

The rest of the trainees will be eliminated.

The evaluation project that separates survival and elimination is the position evaluation.

Through this position evaluation, you can choose the position you want after your debut. You need to arrange your own songs for vocal and rap. You need to choreograph your own dance for dance.

And this time, you will also be given welfare votes.

Based on the results of the live voting, 5000 votes will be given to the first place trainee of each song.

And for the first place trainee of each song, an additional 100,000 welfare votes will be given. "

"Please go public and evaluate the songs."

Kwon Shiqing looked at the songs displayed on the wall. In a short period of time, she had locked onto the song she wanted.

"This year, the songs will be chosen for both vocal and rap. Trainees who want the rap position will have to compose their own rap lyrics.

Takeuchi Meiyou, the 12 trainees, what do you think the number below the song evaluation means? "

"It should mean that there is a limit to the number of people."

"That's right. As long as the number of people reaches the limit, that song can't be chosen.

Who do you think will be the first to choose the song? "

"First place!" The trainees answered in unison.

"The first trainee to choose the song will be the thirteenth place other than the first twelve.

Starting from the thirteenth trainee, without knowing what song the others have chosen, they will go to the back of the wall to choose.

After choosing, the first twelve trainees will choose the song they want. Moreover, these trainees have the freedom to choose and are not limited by the number of people.

However — — "

Shōyou raised her voice. "After these trainees have chosen the song they want, the lowest ranking member of the group will be squeezed into the new unknown song."

"What???"

All the trainees including Kwon Shiqing were stunned.

Under this competition system, which was similar to the second season but different from the second season, the trainees in the lower circle did not know what unknown songs they would face, and the trainees in the upper circle did not know which trainees they would be squeezed out of.

Behind every choice was a completely uncertain future.

All the trainees walked to the back of the wall one after another. They practically did not make any sound. The first twelve trainees did not have any room for discussion under the camera.

In the end, they walked in reverse order one by one.

"Fifth place, Kwon Shiqing trainee, can you finally show off your vocal ability this time?" Shōyou recited the lyrics in the script.

Kwon Shiqing raised the microphone and said, "Actually, I want to choose the dance group."

"Kwon Shiqing trainee's choice is unexpected. Then, please go in."

Regarding the position evaluation, she had discussed it with Consort Han and Manager Song earlier during the holidays. The final conclusion was that she had shown off her vocal ability during the first ranking and the second ranking. She had shown off her rap ability during her first competition. This time, she wanted to show off something different.

All-rounder was the direction that the company had set for her. If possible, she wanted to add an ACE behind this word in the future.

Kwon Shiqing chose HandClap, Side from the dance group.

To

Side, Fighter, and Touch without hesitation, she chose the song she had long thought of — "Fighter," Christina Aguilera.

For Aguilera, the limit was six people.
