1144 Capital

“Oh?” Sun Miao froze and laughed dryly. “The judging teacher sure knows how to joke. How could I possibly do something like lip-sync? Wouldn’t my reputation be ruined if others knew about this?”

Despite what she said, Jiang Yu still did not intend to let her off. “Really? Then please sing a few lines live.”

Sun Miao’s palms began to sweat from nervousness, and she almost dropped the microphone.

“Judge, what do you mean by this? Do you think I can lip-sync? You don’t trust me. As a judge, how can you doubt a contestant?” Sun Miao threw the question to Jiang Yu.

However, Jiang Yu didn’t take it. “This is just for insurance. If you want to prove yourself, then sing a few lines. As long as it’s in tune, I’ll apologize to you for suspecting you.”

Although she really wanted Jiang Yu to apologize to her in front of everyone, Sun Miao did not dare to sing a cappella live.

Because she was indeed lip-synching, she had first recorded it herself, then spent money to hire a tuner to tune and synthesize it for herself. The final result was that it was completely in tune, and there was absolutely not a single sentence out of tune.

Under normal circumstances, such a situation would not have been discovered. Sun Miao was also sure that she did not rush or slow down. Other than the suspicious hand gestures at the beginning, she could not think of how Jiang Yu could tell that she was lip-syncing.

After waiting for a while, seeing that Sun Miao was still not moving, Jiang Yu asked again, “Didn’t you want to prove yourself? Why aren’t you singing?”

“… Do you know that this is slander?” Sun Miao couldn’t help but ask, “What evidence do you have to prove that I was lip-syncing? ”

“You’ve always had the same expression when you were singing. Even when it came to the chorus, you still had a very calm expression. Moreover, the song that was played was always in the same tone, but you clearly moved the microphone far away when you sang. There are still many obvious points that I won’t say.” Jiang Yu said coldly, “What about you? is there any evidence to prove that you didn’t lip-sync?”

Sun Miao’s body froze. After a long time, she said, “Even if I lip-synching, there’s still a reason for it!”

“What’s the reason for lip-synching?” Jiang Yu retorted, “If you’re selected because of lip-synching, it’s not fair to the other contestants at all! It’ll also give people the wrong impression that lip-syncing is also a good thing in singing competitions!”

“How could it be that serious? I only lip-synced once!” Sun Miao tried to defend herself. “This is my first time doing this. I know I’m in the wrong, okay? I’ll just pretend that this never happened. At most, I won’t want this score.”

“I can’t give you any points anyway.” Jiang Yu frowned. “Although there’s no elimination system in this competition, you’re an exception. You’ll be eliminated.”

“Are you kidding me?” Sun Miao’s eyes widened. “I don’t see any of you trying to eliminate others even if she doesn’t sing well. I was just lip-syncing to make the song sound better. Yet, you still want to eliminate me?”

“The two are not of the same nature.” Jiang Yu said, “Don’t put the cart before the horse. Singing competitions are all about individual ability. If you’re not even willing to show off your own ability, what right do you have to say that those who sing are bad?”

“But I had good intentions!” The more Sun Miao spoke, the more agitated she became. She even started to cry. “Why am I getting eliminated just because I lip-synced? Didn’t we agree that this wouldn’t be an elimination system? Aren’t you guys bullying us? My family lost money and even invested in it, and now you want to eliminate me? This doesn’t make any sense.”

The moment Jiang Yu heard the word ‘investment’, she knew that Sun Miao would not be eliminated and would continue to participate in the competition.

She turned to look at Director Liu in the distance and saw him looking at her with a troubled expression.

“… Capitalism is really despicable sometimes.” Jiang Yu said helplessly.

Sun Miao was still crying, and her voice was getting louder and louder. She had no intention of joining the battle.

The comments in the live broadcast room had completely filled the screen: “No way, can you tolerate lip-syncing? Are we still allowing Sun Miao to continue? It’s not fair to the other contestants.”

“I really don’t understand. Did Sun Miao not recognize herself for last week’s shoot? Why is she participating in the competition when her singing is so terrible? Why doesn’t she just give up on the competition?”

“That’s right. She insisted on coming up to show off, but in the end, she started feeling aggrieved after being exposed for lip-synching by the movie queen. Isn’t she just reaping what she sowed?”

“It’s not like the girl group has to sing well. If Sun Miao’s dancing is good, that’s fine too. Why must they be so calculative over something they’re not good at?”
