Chapter 538 Fiery Summer 3


    TVB has two free channels, one is the familiar Jade Channel, and the other is the Pearl Channel, which mainly offers English programs. ATV also has two free channels, a local channel and an international channel that is also mainly in English.


    Don’t underestimate the audience for English programs in Hong Kong. It’s very large. Moreover, English stations will purchase overseas movies and TV dramas and have a large number of fixed viewing groups.


    In other words, Hong Kong only plays on these four channels.


    Jade Channel is the well-deserved leader. During the prime time period from 7 to 10 pm, the highest ratings can reach 83%! On the whole, ATV has never been better than TVB, but individual programs are superior.


    Therefore, "Water Dash" and "Supermarket Player" can stabilize at 35%, which is enough for ATV to bloom.


    "Congratulations to Ye Zhentang for accepting a student!"


    "During commercial break, we will take a break and see you later!"


    Unknowingly, more than half of the 100-minute "The Voice" has been broadcast, and many students have been accepted by the instructors. Priscilla Chan is the only contestant with "fourth rotation" - well, four rotations, and she can ascend.


    Zhou Huimin knew that she was placed in the first phase, but if she hasn''t come out yet, she would definitely be in the last phase.


    She looked at the advertisement on the TV and looked at her enthusiastic mother. Suddenly she became frightened and did not dare to face it. She said, "Mom, I''m going back to study!"


    "Huh? You''ve just finished reading it!"


    "I don''t want to read anymore, I want to study hard!"


    She ran away in a hurry and closed the door, unable to imagine what would happen next.


    "Why are you acting weird today?"


    The mother was confused, but she soon found out. After the commercial, the program continued. After one contestant was eliminated, the host said: "Only the last student is left. We invite you to applaud!"


    It''s still a VCR, the scene of the contestants entering the ATV building.


    The previous people were all accompanied by their parents. The most exaggerated one came with five family members and was eliminated.


    And the last one is just a weak, pitiful and helpless figure, wearing a red top, his hair is naturally curly and a bit messy, wearing a bow hairpin, and a pair of big plastic glasses.


    At first glance, it looks unremarkable. The streets are full of female students.


    "Minmin?!"


    Mom stood up abruptly. After the shock, she became very angry. She wanted to rush into the house and ask what was going on, but looking at the closed door, she held back her anger and sat down again, staring at the TV expressionlessly.


    "My name is Zhou Huimin, 16 years old, a junior high school student (equivalent to junior high school junior high school in the Mainland)!"


    "I like singing very much, but my mother doesn''t like it. I want to sing a song called "Thank You" by Danny Zai for my mother!"


    The scene changes.


    Zhou Huimin stood on the stage, holding the microphone tightly with both hands. Her nervousness was visible to the naked eye. Even her voice trembled when she spoke the first sentence: "The emptiness of the long night makes me nostalgic for things. The bright moon looks bright and misses my mother..."


    Some of Chen Baiqiang''s most widely circulated songs are "I Just Like You", "What I Want in Life" and "In Memory of My Family".


    "My parents are dear to my heart, they are as gentle and kind as the blue moon. I always ask in my heart where to report!"


    By the end of the program, the audience in front of the TV was able to comment on the contestants'' singing skills, appearance, typhoon, etc. just like the instructors.


    "She''s so nervous, but her voice is nice."


    "Well, the voice is really nice, and the skills are just average."


    "You''re just average-looking, with such big glasses!"


    Huang Zhan raised his eyebrows with an expression of "he''s just a rookie again". Lisa Du and Ye Zhentang shook their heads slightly, and Zhong Zhentao whispered: "It''s okay, I think it''s okay."


    "Then you transfer?"


    "I''ll think about it again! Uncle Zhan, are you transferring?"


    "snort!"


    Huang Zhan dismissed it.


    My mother was watching TV with anger, but when she saw this, she suddenly cursed: "Old pervert! Don''t look down on my daughter, Minmin sings very carefully!"


    Zhou Huimin seemed to be calmer as she sang, showing the level of a campus singer.


    Her singing skills are just that, mainly due to her legs.


    And she sang for most of the time, but no one turned around, and her mother became anxious. She didn''t like her daughter to be on stage, but since she was on stage, she always wanted to be recognized. She said to herself: "It''s okay to turn around! Turn around!" Snap!


    Finally, the soft-hearted Brother B took a shot.


    Huang Zhan looked in disbelief and pointed at him: "Wow, kind!"


    "Didn''t Ah B see it?"


    "Love the fragrance and cherish the jade!"


    "Give the kids a chance!"


    Zhou Huimin saw someone turning around and smiled happily. The song just ended and she bowed deeply.


    "How to say it?"


    Huang Zhan was always the first to comment. Chen Qi wanted him to use a fan to fan the high-end version of Gao Xiaosong. Huang Zhan felt that he was being pretentious and refused.


    "Your voice is pretty good, with the characteristics of a gentle girl, but other aspects are relatively average. You should sing regularly on weekdays, and you have some amateur skills. It seems to have a bit of a choir feel?"


    "I, I was in the choir at school."


    "No wonder!"


    Huang Zhan nodded and said, "Also, why did you choose the song "In Memory of My Family"?"


    "Because I want to give it to my mother."


    "Your mother, uh, you and your mother don''t live together?"


    "No, we are together."


    "Don''t we meet often?"


    "No, I see you every day."


    Huang Zhan sighed: "Little sister, do you know what "Memory of Parents" is about? Children are traveling far away and are not around to express their gratitude and longing for their parents. You see your mother every day, what do you miss? You come to participate The show is very courageous, so read it carefully! ”


    "Hey! Old pervert, bullying my daughter!"


    Mom started scolding again.


    Zhou Huimin continued to pity the weak and helpless, and felt like she was about to cry. Zhong Zhentao stopped Huang Zhan: "You are 16 years old, don''t bully others...little sister, you don''t have to be afraid, uh, if you choose a song that expresses family affection, you must love you very much." Mom and dad?"


    "I love my mother very much."


    "What about your father? I see that other students are here accompanied by their families, but you are the only one here. Why aren''t your family members accompanying you?"


    "I, I..."


    “Don’t be afraid, speak up!”


    "Yeah, maybe your mother is watching TV!"


    "What''s not good to tell? Who doesn''t have a story? When I was a child, my parents divorced and I was fostered in a relative''s house. I lived in one house today and another one tomorrow. I worked in middle school and rented my own house. Cockroaches and mice crawled all over the floor. Then So what, I’m not Brother B now?”


    "Wow!"


    "Whoosh!"


    The audience at the scene couldn''t help but clap their hands. Not even a few decades later, Zhong Zhentao can still gain a lot of fans for his character and good impressions even now.


    With his encouragement, Zhou Huimin finally plucked up the courage and said:


    "I have never met my father. He died before I was born. My mother raised me by herself... Ever since I was sensible, I remember how my mother was busy and tired every day. I know she worked very hard. , I lived in a shabby wooden house when I was a child, but I was never hungry and I had clothes to wear.


    She had to work several jobs alone. I wanted to learn piano, so she saved up money to send me to training classes. I liked painting, so she worked another job to find a teacher for me. She is the best mother in the world. …She doesn’t like my singing, so I came to this competition without telling her.


    I really like singing. I can do both, but she doesn’t really listen to me. She gets very angry every time I mention it. I don’t know what to do, woo woo... I... woo woo... I actually want to earn some money by singing to support my family, so that my mother won’t have to work so hard. I feel really bad when I see her so tired every day..."


    How had the audience in the 1980s seen this?


    At this moment, all the teachers in Hong Kong were fixated on ATV, watching her standing on the stage with pear blossoms and rain.
