On the King of Masked Singers stage.
The set was not fully constructed yet, but it was enough to accommodate the sound checks.
There were many people seated in the audience, such as the station heads, channel directors, and Hu Fei, together with most of his program team. They had already auditioned five masked singers, and it was time for the sixth contestant. They had to take into consideration the live performances as well as other various factors to determine the order of appearances, to know which contestant would start in the first round or act as a replacement in the second round. All of this were not yet decided, so it was particularly important today as they needed to understand each of the contestant's strengths and characteristics in order to make a decision.
Hu Fei lowered his head and jotted a few things down on his notepad.
Contestant #1: Recommended as opener, has explosive high notes.
