This time, however, Wang Qingge was destined to be disappointed, because what happened next was beyond his imagination.

After the performance by the American team ended, all the audience members cheered and rejoiced for them.

Next, one hundred judges from around the world were finally going to score the performance by the United States.

Upon learning that the United States was to be rated, those who supported them became incredibly excited once again.

The results came out quickly; this time, fate did not favor Wang Qingge and her group.

When the scores from the United States came out, everyone, including Wang Qingge and her group, was taken aback.

Because the United States has the highest score in all the competitions so far.

"Ah! Ah..." After seeing that the United States had won first place, countless spectators cheered for them.

Those who are happy for them and cheer for them are supporters of the United States; they are people who like war-themed music.

Wang Qingge was completely dumbfounded when he saw this scene, because he really never expected that the ending would be like this.

The performance by the American team actually won first place.

Wang Qingge didn't care how the performance in the United States was, but he really racked his brains and still couldn't figure it out.

Why would a piece of music about war, a piece that glorifies war, or a piece that incites others to start a war, have so many supporters?

Are all the people here like this? Do they really like war that much?

Here, apart from a few people who do not support this kind of music, almost everyone else does.

...

Wang Qingge wasn't the only one who had a problem with America winning first place; Han Zhixuan had also been holding back for a long time. So, after seeing America take first place...

She thought to herself with resentment, "Why? Clearly, Qingge and Chen Xin's performance was the best."

"The Song of the Secret Garden is truly a classic, so why did they still take first place?"

Han Zhixuan was unwilling to accept it, and so was Chen Xin; she too found this ending very difficult to accept.

But this was the answer given by the audience and judges, so Chen Xin could only say helplessly.

"This is everyone's decision. The audience and judges chose them because they liked their music."

"It's pointless for us to say this here."

Upon hearing Chen Xin's question, Han Zhixuan still protested, "But what is the tune from the United States?"

"Their music is a war song! Why do so many people still support them?"

Chen Tiancheng finally spoke up on this point, saying something unexpectedly.

"The reason why the audience chose them and supported them is because this piece of music from the United States can excite people."

"Their piece of music can indeed get people's blood pumping."

"That's why so many people support them."

"But, this..." Han Zhixuan wanted to say something more, but she also realized that Chen Tiancheng was not wrong, so she didn't know what to say.

Wang Qingge understood the same thing immediately after hearing Chen Tiancheng's words.

Yes! The audience doesn't favor any particular person or any particular piece of music. They just support whatever music makes them happy and enjoyable.

This seems to make no real sense, because no one would be so foolish as to support something they don't like and give up something they do like.

The current ending reflects the sentiments of all viewers and is their most genuine reaction.

Therefore, the reason why the United States came in first place is entirely because they seized the initiative.

They won first place because they captured what the audience loved to watch, and they really can't blame anyone else for that.

Although it was a done deal that the United States had won first place, Wang Qingge was still very unwilling.

After all, this match was extremely important to him; if he couldn't win and take the championship...

He didn't know what to do.

If Wang Qingge can't get first place and win the championship, then he can forget about saving Yan Ranran.

So at this moment, he was also very unwilling.

Wang Qingge's resentment, though unspoken, was written all over his face, and Chen Tiancheng and the others saw it too.

In the end, it was Chen Tiancheng who comforted him, saying, "Alright, Xiao Wang, it's okay that the United States took first place today."

"After all, there's another chance tomorrow. Tomorrow is actually the real final moment."

"So you still have a chance. I believe you can do it. You have created too many miracles for us."

"I believe that you can create miracles for us again this time."

Upon hearing Chen Tiancheng's words, Chen Xin immediately comforted him, saying, "Yes, Qingge! We'll have another chance tomorrow."

"We absolutely cannot lose again tomorrow. No matter what you do, we will fully support you."

After listening to their words, Wang Qingge immediately realized what they meant.

Yes! Today isn't the finals, so they still have a chance tomorrow.

As long as he produces another classic song, he refuses to believe he can lose to anyone else.

If he loses in the end, what does his system even mean?

Thinking about all this, Wang Qingge suddenly felt full of confidence, because he firmly believed that no matter what others did, the final championship could only belong to them.

Han Zhixuan then said to him, "Qingge, why don't you quickly think of a way to compose another song?"

"You compose another piece of music that will clearly slap these people in the face."

Han Zhixuan's words at this moment suddenly gave Wang Qingge a reminder.

At this point, Wang Qingge knew that he would definitely have to choose a different piece of music, but after what happened today...

He knew in his heart that he could no longer choose what he liked if he wanted to win, to take first place, and to win the championship.

This time, he absolutely cannot choose the piece he likes or the piece he thinks is good.

Instead, choose something that the public likes, a song that the audience loves to listen to.

Under other circumstances, Wang Qingge might have continued to stick to her decision.

But this time is different. He has to win the championship, so he can't take any risks and must make the decision he's most confident in.

The most certain decision is to follow the audience's preferences, so Wang Qingge had already made up her mind at this moment.
