S4 Spherical 3 Velocity Assessment | Name Me By Fireplace 4 (2024) 披荆斩棘4三公

I am unable to imagine it is already Spherical 3 (三公)! Listed here are my critiques based mostly on YouTube uploads on the thirteenth and 14th of September 2024.

As talked about in my earlier article, this Spherical will see collaboration between any two teams, whatever the age bracket:

1. Reno Wang Zhe Liang, 王铮亮 (Elder) and Shi Kai, 石凯 (Youthful)

2. Hacken Lee, 李克勤 (Elder) and Azora Chin You Zhang Jin, 尤长靖 (Youthful)

3. Liang Lengthy, 梁龙 (Elder) and William Wei Li An, 韦礼安 (Elder)

4. Fox Hu, 胡夏 (Youthful) and Zao An, 早安 (Youthful)

Brothers: Zao An (早安), Fu Xin Bo (付辛博), Jiao Mai Qi (焦迈奇), Li Jia Qi (李佳琦), and Du Hai Tao (杜海涛)

It’s a easy efficiency combining trendy pop dance and rock music. Zao An’s rap stays unparalleled; Fu Xin Bo and Austin Li outshine the remaining with their outstanding dance strikes.

One bonus level for his or her vital enchancment from the final Spherical’s Soul Singer (灵魂歌手). Everybody’s on fireplace, so bravo to them!

Brothers: Azora Chin You Zhang Jing (尤长靖), MIYAVI, Akira (黑泽良平), and Huang Xiao (黄潇)

Yet one more strong efficiency led by Malaysian artist, Azora Chin! Visually, the stage resembled the film Dune’s panorama involving loads of digging, grime, mud and rain/bathe.

Everybody nailed their roles properly, from singing to performing and dancing. This stage is sort of each brother’s first: Azora Chin dug his arms into acting-singing, Huang Xiao batheed us along with his vocal expertise, Akira muddled with the Chinese language language… and MIYAVI did us grimey by performing with out his iconic guitar.

Sorry no sorry, I like my puns LOL!

P/S Have a peek on the behind-the-scenes for some Chinese language classes giggles!

Brothers: Reno Wang Zheng Liang (王铮亮), Shi Kai (石凯), Allen Lin Yi Lun (林依轮), Evan Yo Tsai Min You (蔡旻佑), and Jing Lengthy (井胧)

True to its title, this piece is akin to a rebellious teenager exuding indifference in direction of every thing.

38-year-old Evan Yo shocked me essentially the most for pulling off the dangerous boy persona… a stark distinction to his earlier picture as a classical violinist!

Brothers: Hacken Lee (李克勤), Charlie Qin Hao (秦昊), Rhydian Vaughan Feng Xiao Yue (凤小岳) and J.zen Zhu Xing Jie (朱星杰)

It is a traditional with a slight adaptation by J.zen. I do not thoughts the improvisation as the brand new interpretation didn’t sacrifice the unique tune’s uniqueness. All 4 vocals mix harmoniously, like a twilight scene of purple and orange.

Whereas they’ve ticked the audio and technical containers, their visuals are a giant letdown.

This stage is arguably the plainest, if not one of many laziest within the historical past of Name Me By Fireplace. Talking from a inventive standpoint, design is non-existent. The 4 brothers must make do with platforms with adjustable heights… so let’s simply shut our eyes and savour their soothing vocals.

Brothers: Liang Lengthy (梁龙), Yan Yi Kuan (严屹宽), Jerry Yuan Cheng Jie (袁成杰), Jason Fu Lengthy Fei (符龙飞) and Caelan Moriarty (庆怜)

At this level, the identify Liang Lengthy is synonymous with “bizarre, however not bizarre sufficient to be appalling”. Both means, sure, that is one other enjoyable tune giving off the early 50’s and 60’s vibes.

Everybody nailed their components… man, why do they make bizarre appear really easy? Bonus factors to Yan Yi Kuan and Jerry Yuan for executing the weirdest of the bizarre roles with a straight face… they really are actors to the core!

Brothers: Fox Hu Xia (胡夏), Zao An (早安), Fu Xin Bo (付辛博) and Ning Huan Yu (宁桓宇)

Followers love the psychological-thriller sequence, so Name Me By Fireplace milked the cow by assigning the idea to a brand new group: Youthful Brothers Fox Hu and Zao An.

The story is easy and well-executed.

Fox Hu’s harmless, oppressed sufferer outlook satisfied me additional that Fu Xin Bo and Zao An are glorious psychopathic bullies… If given the prospect LOL.

P/S Watch their rehearsal and apply rounds for extra giggles!!!

Right here comes a essential query: what concerning the fourth member, Ning Huan Yu? Sadly, his well being points restricted his contribution to a mere 5-second epilogue. So let’s want him a speedy restoration!

Brothers: Reno Wang Zheng Liang (王铮亮), Shi Kai (石凯), Aruna (阿如那), and 9 Gao (高卿尘)

This tune’s rhythm is humbling, and we had been humbled additional by the members’ smooth vocals and melodious concord.

9 Gao is his ordinary softie. I did not know Shi Kai might sing so lovingly? Aruna’s powerful look does not match his melancholy tune. Reno Wang performed the accordion through the X-part… is there something this man can’t do?!

I believe “This Little Fish Cares” is healthier carried out by three brothers, not 4. However, it is the most effective stage of the Spherical!

Brothers: William Wei Li An (韦礼安), Joe Xu Hai Qiao (徐海乔), Jason Fu Lengthy Fei (符龙飞), and Caelan Moriarty (庆怜)

The stage stored true to the tune’s unique Music Video, that includes English lyrics and trendy dance choreography in historic Chinese language costume (one other bizarre combo, yup). Whereas kudos to the brothers for setting such a excessive bar… It is equally essential to be life like and set the priorities proper.

There are 100 methods to get this efficiency unsuitable, which they hit a couple of…

Some struggled to indicate their oomph in dancing. Just a few could not sustain with the beat. One muffled via the lyrics… I will not be too specific about pronunciation, contemplating English is a international language for many Name Me By Fireplace contestants.

It is disheartening to see them making an attempt so onerous, but not assembly the advertising and marketing hype. A minimum of the 4 had the greatest backdrop design of the Spherical.

All collaborations occurred to have one win and one loss, which tallied with their total scores:

By trying on the numbers alone, Reno Wang-Shi Kai ought to have been topped the winner, and rightfully so. Their “This Little Fish Cares” is actually stunning, and “I Do not Care” is filled with surprises.

Nonetheless, the music program loves its sophisticated competitors guidelines and format (duh). Lengthy story quick, the producers launched some playing parts for the members to seize additional factors.

Hacken Lee, being essentially the most senior and subsequently wisest of all, positioned the best wager on “Step Apart”. The Hong Kong veteran additionally initiated to problem Reno Wang-Shi Kai’s “I Do not Care” in order that their staff can keep away from confronting his “This Little Fish Cares”.

These daring ways garnered an additional 24 factors, subsequently beating the pair to the primary place.

Spherical 3 launched a brand new rule that binds 1 elimination in one of many two least-performing groups. Yup, you learn it proper: a assured elimination. I’ve robust opinions concerning this weird regulation… However oh properly. Their TV channel, their individuals, their guidelines.

You lose the second you are taking actuality exhibits personally.

Again to the competitors. Liang Lengthy-William Wei misplaced the problem, ensuing within the elimination of Jerry Yuan. What a disgrace… He is one of many few excellent actors of the season.

Fox Hu-Zao An is the lowest-ranking staff, subsequently eliminating Ning Huan Yu. One might see this as a blessing in disguise, as he lastly had the time to totally recuperate. Name Me By Fireplace is gruelling, ya’ know.

This additionally meant Zao An had misplaced a teammate two instances in a row.

This Little Fish Cares (这条小鱼在乎), adopted very carefully by Step Apart (借过一下).

What about the most effective Brother?

Each males carried out in two exhibits (are you able to think about how exhausting that’s) and are among the many saving graces of their respective performances.

Jason Fu’s athleticism is the one spotlight of 100 Methods. Fu Xin Bo’s dance strikes fired up “The Roof is on Fireplace”. Interval.

Understanding the competitors format, the leaders would be the high 3 favourites of every bracket. Right here, we are able to deduce the three leaders based mostly on this Spherical’s Particular person Reputation votes:

1. Hacken Lee

2. Reno Wang Zheng Liang

3. William Wei Li An

4. Azora Chin You Zhang Jing

5. Shi Kai

6. Fox Hu

However wait… There’s extra.

Do not all of us like to see acquainted faces?! Anticipate shenanigans from the “Pleased Boys” former contestants, who additionally occurred to be the “nemesis” of Reno Wang…

I can’t wait! See you all within the subsequent weblog publish!!
