Before the broadcast of "Riding the Wind 2023", the biggest focus was "who is the next Wang Xinling". Among the 33 sisters to be exploded, the most bought shares are the former girl idol Xu Huaiyu.
Like Wang Xinling, both of them are one step away, killing a lot of popular golden songs, and both experienced ups and downs when they were young. Buff is stacked, even if it can't be as big as Sister Wang, at least it can turn red a little, right?
Indeed, red is red, but reverse red.
1.
At the beginning of the stage, Xu Huaiyu's performance shattered everyone's childhood filter.
After many years of singing "Split Flight", the difficulty of the song is not high, or the output of the pile, the result is that the voice is shriveled and the high note is laborious, and the stage expression is almost zero.
His eyes kept drifting upward, suspected of aiming at the teleprompter.
Although the overall effect is crotch-pulling, the audience is still very tolerant of her, and they all know that Xu Huaiyu has not been easy over the years, and his state is not as good as before. But when it came to the key to the elimination format, all the sisters showed the hard work of the backwater battle, and Xu Huaiyu's catastrophic paddling performance made everyone completely unbearable.
Appear firmly in the C position, the basic twist is not on point, a pull of the vista is a group of demons dancing, left hand right hand a slow motion.
The comparison with Jia Jingwen's frame is more intuitive, although Jia Jingwen sings and dances but the typhoon is confident and open, while Xu Huaiyu's eyes are full of horror written with "I'm so good".
The most absurd thing is that when it comes to the key killing part of the whole song, the other sisters are working hard, but she is looking left and right on the side, obviously forgetting the action.
It may be that there are too many flaws, the whole song was cut to pieces in the later stage, most of them are close up scenes, the atmosphere is all heated by the reaction of the sisters outside the scene, and Xu Huaiyu's shots are even more pitiful.
Netizens commented: Xu Huaiyu This is not called paddling, this is called stepping on the waves.
To be honest, the "script" that Xu Huaiyu got this time is not bad, and Jia Jingwen, Chen Yihan, Li Caihua, and Wang Jiayu were assigned to a five-person group, of which Li Caihua Although Li Caihua has released an album, only Xu Huaiyu is a professional vocalist, and he is also a singer who can be called a little diva.
In terms of stage performance experience, the four sisters were all beaten by her, originally thinking that it would be the king with flying bronze crushing bureau, who knew that the king knelt before leaving the novice village. So as soon as the program was broadcast, the entry of "Xu Huaiyu paddling" slaughtered the hot search again.
Why say "again"? Because Jia Jingwen was dissatisfied with Xu Huaiyu's paddling, it spread as early as a month ago.
When Yigong recorded, the audience broke the news that Xu Huaiyu couldn't keep up with the position on the stage and couldn't remember the name of the team, so angry that Jia Jingwen had connotations in person.
As soon as the repo came out, someone followed the train of thought to pick up Xu Huaiyu's public itinerary and found that she really didn't stay in the dormitory for a day:
On April 12, he just flew to Changsha to rehearse Yigong, and on April 13, he flew back to Taipei to prepare for the concert on the 14th. As soon as the concert was over, he rushed back to Changsha non-stop on the 15th, and officially recorded a gong on the 17th. That is to say, before and after, only the 16th rehearses with his teammates all day.
If this can perform well, then it is really hell...
Because of the hot search for paddling, the agent also had to come forward to respond publicly. Come on, let's show you what is called a textbook-level zero-score PR essay:
"Translate" it:
First of all, I declare that the concert time is set before "Riding the Wind", and according to the first-come, first-served rule, we can't be blamed for leaving halfway. Then silky into the miserable link, the commercial performance is also because my sister only has the stage, do you know how hard she works? Finally, pull the form for a whole wave of emotional killing, and everyone pays according to the head.
As soon as this little essay came out, it really confused the melon-eating masses: Ah, is this something that can be said?
Iron fan Liu Wei was the first to jump out to defend the rights of the idol online, emphasizing that it was not his sister who did not work hard and took the lead in tearing up the company.
The screenwriter of "Whirlwind Girl" also came to add firewood and bombard Sister Lang's workplace bullying Xu Huaiyu. Just, this is also quite explosive in the entire oil pouring world...
However, compared to this fan, what really irritates everyone in the small composition is that it uses selling misery as a weapon to kidnap the audience, and it is throwing the pot to make amends throughout the article, without a single apology to its teammates.
Everyone on and off the stage knows how important this show is to the sisters whose careers have stagnated, the practice room rolls up to death, everyone tries their best to compete for the ranking, Jia Jingwen ran to the online class to practice over and over again until the early hours of the morning, Qiu Ceraxian fell heavily in the pool, so painful that he couldn't stand up and gritted his teeth and insisted, Cai Shaofen practiced songs until he collapsed and cried, and Amber was also injured.
And Xu Huaiyu, easily got the admission ticket that others have not received for two years of interview, but did not cherish it, both wanted to eat dividends but refused to pay, the audience was not a big wrong, not stupid enough to pay for the "memory killing" that was too lazy to even be perfunctory.

Coincidentally, Cecilia Cheung, the last paddling diva of Sister Lang, and Xu Huaiyu had a fate-changing intersection in 1998.
At that time, Stephen Chow was preparing to film "The King of Comedy", and the first choice for the heroine Liu Piaopiao was Xu Huaiyu, but Xu Huaiyu actually refused Xing Ye's invitation.
Cause? It's too red.
Looking at Xu Huaiyu's fame now, it may be the most appropriate footnote to that unknown millennium.
In 1997, at the age of 19, she was doing laundry on the balcony while humming, and her young but moving singing voice was discovered by the Rolling Stones staff who lived next door and quickly signed into the company.
After signing the contract, Xu Huaiyu received vigorous cultivation, and in March of the following year, he released his first self-titled album "Xu Huaiyu", one of which "I am a Girl" became popular all over the strait and three places, and was the second singer after Zhang Huimei to break one million in his first album. In October of the same year, she released her second album "Rush Forward" while the iron was hot, and the sales exceeded one million.
In the popular phrase, the Chinese music scene in 1998 is undoubtedly surnamed Xu.
In 2000, Xu Huaiyu, who missed Stephen Chow, starred in the first TV series "The Legend of Heaven and Earth: Fish Beauty", and she was matched by Guo Jin'an and Sun Li, who had just finished acting in "Genesis".
Although he picked the big beam when he was electrocuted for the first time, Xu Huaiyu really played the naughty and playful, clever and cute carp essence Xiaolian. The acting skills are not to say how amazing, it is no problem to beat the love beans of a batch of transformed actors now.
The play later also became one of the summer vacation replay troops, which is a childhood memory for many people.
At that time, everyone thought that she would be the next diva, but the word "luck" was so amazing, no one expected that Xu Huaiyu's career luck would be overdrawn in just three years.
In 2001, she was accused by her grandfather of "abandoning the elderly", which caused a sensation in the entertainment industry. In desperation, Xu Huaiyu could only hold a press conference to expose his scars, not because he didn't raise his son, but because his grandfather had been abusing her and her mother for many years, and the family was forced to flee in order to save their lives.
Unfortunately, the entertainment industry at that time was not the general environment of girls helping girls today, even if Xu Huaiyu's experience was unfortunate, a girl idol broke out a scandal of "unfilial piety", which was almost equivalent to the death penalty.
She completely fell into the trough of her career, and then heard Xu Huaiyu's news, which was the "wine gate" that made a lot of noise.
In 2008, Xu Huaiyu signed a contract with Xianghong Entertainment to make a comeback, and the organizers suspected that she was asked to accompany her to drink at the dinner, which frightened Xu Huaiyu to flee overnight without the consent of the brokerage company, and the job set was also cancelled.
There is no official account for this matter, but Xu Huaiyu undoubtedly offended the brokerage company and disappeared again.

In those years, the news about Xu Huaiyu was always outrageous and sad, what suffered from depression and lost 33 kilograms, lived so poor that he borrowed money from fans to live, and changed careers to work as a zero-paid paralegal...
As a result, when Xu Huaiyu is mentioned now, two labels will immediately pop up in everyone's mind: the first "I am a girl" and the second "I am miserable".
But in the entertainment industry, especially in the Taiwanese entertainment industry in those years, there are many examples of Xu Huaiyu experiencing ups and downs, Yi Nengjing, who paid off his father's debt, Zhang Shaohan, who was framed by his own mother for drug abuse, and Wang Xinling, a scumbag harvester.
These girl idols of different eras from her eventually seized the opportunity to turn over against the wind and grew into hard bones that could not be beaten. Only Xu Huaiyu sank in the whirlpool of continuous comeback.
Watching Michelle Yeoh's interview recently, I heard a sentence that is very suitable for Xu Huaiyu: If you find one thing difficult, then you have lost half of it.
In the final analysis, Xu Huaiyu has never been the sister who "rides the wind and waves", and it is clear in the interview that if there is a next opportunity, I don't want to be a singer again, because it is too hard.
At the moment of this recording festival, he was asked what his mentality was, and he also bluntly said that he was afraid of losing and would run away once he needed to fight.
The word "Sister Lang" is a heavenly cake for Liu Wei who has become popular with idols, and for Xu Huaiyu, it may also mean eating in the entertainment industry with an average of 208w per day.
Xu Huaiyu's spirit to fight in the entertainment industry has long been gone. It can even be said that a long time ago, her attitude towards her career was no different from her attitude towards the stage of "Riding the Wind", where she rowed, there were obviously a hundred solutions, and she always chose the most rotten one.
When she was popular, she could be reluctant to appear on stage because she didn't like a dress, or she could refuse to sing directly because she didn't like the song arranged by the company, and the producer was so bad that she persuaded her into the studio.
After "Riding the Wind" was scolded and paddled this time, he directly turned on one-click protection on Weibo, and he could not follow or comment. You directly searched for "Xu Huaiyu" on Weibo, but you couldn't find this person.
Such a work attitude of evading and throwing off face in case of accidents, even if there is no turmoil of abandonment and drinking, the career will be pulled out sooner or later.
As for business capabilities, it is not excellent.
Speaking of cold knowledge, Xu Huaiyu has not really disappeared in the past ten years, and has participated in many variety shows, especially in the past few years of nostalgic Xiangyin Mix, sang with Yu Kewei in "Golden Melody Lao", appeared on "Masked Singing Will Guess", and even sang an episode for the traffic drama "Will Night 2".
As a result, not a single splash came out. Even if the opportunity is handed over to her, the business level can be stuck in the stage of "high-profile comeback".
In November last year, Rolling Stone officially announced Xu Huaiyu's return, and smashed the resources of the Taipei concert as soon as he made a move.
Judging from the feedback, it is the level at which her fans are complaining about it.
The result of not being able to reach but being greedy at both ends is to scratch at both ends. It is said that Xu Huaiyu is a pity, it cannot be denied that the commercial performance was taken by her, and the business ability was also lost by her.
Xu Huaiyu once tearfully confessed in an interview, "I don't want to be different on and off stage", but if this is the "true self" she wants to show, perhaps, she really shouldn't come to this show.
