on stage.

As the lights came on, a cheerful prelude began to play.

Chen Qingzhu, who was wearing a white dress, spoke first:

[The vast horizon is my love

Flowers are blooming at the foot of the rolling green hills]

As a singer in the art troupe, although Chen Qingzhu is not very famous, his singing skills are very strong, even better than some well-known singers.

The music industry is like this. Singing well does not necessarily make you famous. After all, there are too many people who sing well!

Chen Qingzhu's voice and temperament are highly compatible with the song "The Most Exciting National Style". Although the audience didn't know her, she amazed many people as soon as she opened her mouth.

“That’s awesome!”

"This sister is amazing!"

“Excellent singing skills!”

"I suddenly felt like I was at a party."

Some people in the audience sighed, and some were whispering.

Except for Yang Nian, who had already heard Chen Qingzhu singing during rehearsal, the other three mentors all had surprised expressions on their faces.

Zhou Dawei nodded subconsciously. For them, the mentors, the type of song was not important.

What’s important is whether the song has the potential to spread and whether it can generate traffic.

Times have changed.

Mentors like Zhou Dawei and Li Kun are too lazy to promote works that are too high-brow for the masses.

Because it doesn’t bring any real benefits!

Whether it is a film or television drama or a piece of music, in the final analysis it is all for the purpose of entertaining and pleasing the audience.

Rather than educating the audience.

Of course it would be better if it could convey some positive ideas while entertaining.

But this is definitely not the first one. No one will have a sudden enlightenment and change their original inherent ideas just by watching a certain TV series or listening to a certain song.

unconsciously.

The chorus arrives.

Chen Qingzhu:

You are the most beautiful cloud in my sky

Let me keep you here with my heart

Red Rose Band members:

Stay!!

"No, why is this song getting more and more addictive the more I listen to it?"

"Why do I want to shout too!"

"My arms, they just want to swing uncontrollably!"

"There's something, it's so good!"

During the interlude of the song.

The audience was talking in whispers.

Section B begins.

It was Lin Xiamo's turn to sing:

[The vast horizon is my love

Flowers are blooming at the foot of the rolling green hills]

The lyrics haven't changed much.

But when Lin Xiamo sang this song, it felt completely different from what Chen Qingzhu had just sung.

When Chen Qingzhu sings, the audience will feel as if they are at a party.

Lin Xiamo then brought the audience from the party to a concert.

The folk songs made her sing with the flavor of pop songs.

But what remains unchanged is, hi!

Still having fun!

Especially when the chorus part that had been repeated several times before came again.

The audience in the audience no longer tried to control their emotions and began to sway their bodies to the rhythm of the music.

The chorus comes again.

Lin Xiamo:

You are the most beautiful cloud in my sky

Let me keep you here with my heart

Audience:

Stay!!!

Originally, this voice should have come from Chen Qingzhu, Hu Tingting and the other two together.

This was rehearsed before.

When Chen Qingzhu sang lead, Lin Xiamo and three teammates sang harmony.

When Lin Xiamo sang the lead, Chen Qingzhu and three others sang the harmony.

As a result, the voices of the audience directly drowned out the voices of Chen Qingzhu and the other three.

Wait until the next time.

Even four mentors joined the "staying" team.

The atmosphere of the entire recording site was boosted.

Wait until the show is over.

Chen Qingzhu and Lin Xiamo, mother and daughter, held hands and bowed to the curtain call.

There was immediate outbreak of warm applause and cheers at the scene.

Some audience members even whistled.

“Thank you to Mr. Chen Qingzhu and the Red Rose Band for their wonderful performance.”

"The voting channel is now open. If you like the performance just now, please cast your vote."

"Next, please invite the four mentors to comment on the performance just now and cast your votes!"

"Teacher Dawei, please come first..."

The host Zhang Zhihua walked onto the stage and began the process.

Zhou Dawei, who was called, pulled the microphone on the table closer to his mouth and said, "It was an amazing performance, which exceeded my expectations, especially this song. Because it is an original work, I didn't have high hopes."

"I want to ask, is this song written by your band?"

“I guess so!”

Lin Xiamo nodded.

"Is it?"

"What does this mean?"

Zhou Dawei spread his hands and asked.

"The songwriter of this song is Shen Qiushan, who is an alternate member of our Red Rose band."

Lin Xiamo explained seriously.

The matter of alternate members was previously proposed by Shen Qiushan himself, who also asked Hu Tingting to write his name on the profile of the Red Rose Band's Kuaiyin account.

“Chen Qiushan?”

"The author of The Three-Body Civilization?"

"Nebula Award winner, famous author?"

Li Kun took over the conversation and asked three questions in a row. It was obvious that he was very surprised.

In fact, it wasn't just him. After learning that the song was actually composed by Shen Qiushan, the audience was already in an uproar.

Shen Qiushan's popularity is still very high. After all, he has been on the hot search list many times before.

What’s more, he is the first and only Nebula Award winner in the country.

Since he is not an artist, many people may not recognize him at first sight when they see him.

However, the name "Chen Qiushan" is still very popular among the public, even not inferior to the four mentors on the scene.

“Yes, it’s the writer Shen Qiushan.”

Lin Xiamo nodded and said with some pride: "'Red Rose' is also his work."

"It's really Teacher Shen!"

“That’s awesome!”

Li Kun gave a thumbs up.

"I never thought that 'Red Rose' and this song 'The Most Dazzling National Style' were composed by the same person."

"As a creator myself, I admire you so much!"

“Because only the creator knows how difficult it is!”

Guo Yanbin took over the conversation. He is a singer-songwriter who wrote 80% of his songs. He is a recognized talent in the music industry.

Therefore, his words are still very valuable.

"The Three-Body Civilization, I love it so much!"

"Since Mr. Shen is also a member of your band, is it possible for him to come to the scene in the next competition?"

Zhou Dawei asked.

“This is good!”

"I'm also looking forward to seeing Teacher Shen."

Li Kun followed suit.

“It should be possible.”

Lin Xiamo hadn't thought of letting Shen Qiushan participate in the competition, but if necessary, it's not impossible.

After chatting about Shen Qiushan for a while, everyone turned the topic to the guest singer Chen Qingzhu.

"I originally thought that this song didn't quite fit in with the Red Rose Band, but after Teacher Chen joined, the incongruity disappeared without a trace. This must be the charm of the singing contest."

"The addition of guest singers will give the contestants more possibilities. I give them 25 votes!"

There are four mentors, each with 25 votes, and they can give 0 to 25 votes according to their preferences.

Li Kun, who was the first to express his opinion, gave a full vote.

“I’ll give 25 votes too!”

Guo Yanbin also expressed his opinion, and then praised: "Teacher Chen and Momo's mother-daughter combination is great. I even think that Teacher Chen can also become a member of the Red Rose Band."

“I think this group performed the best so far!”

“So, I also have 25 votes!”

Zhou Dawei also gave a full vote.

“Three full tickets!”

"Then, Teacher Yang Nian."

"Whether we can get four full tickets depends on you."

The host Zhang Zhihua said to Yang Nian with a smile.

As he is the mentor of the Red Rose Band, Yang Nian has not made any comments. This can be regarded as a tacit understanding among the four mentors.

Once the players from their own team are performing on the stage, the mentors of that team will make final comments.

"I would like to use two words to describe the performance by the Red Rose Band and Teacher Chen."

"Perfect!"

Yang Nian was full of praise: "It's really perfect, better than any other rehearsal!"

"Especially Teacher Chen, he is really steady and serious every time during rehearsal. This attitude is also worth learning for us young singers!"

“So, 25 votes is a certainty!”

"Also, I want to say that 25 votes is the upper limit given by the program team, not my upper limit!"

Wow!

Yang Nian finished speaking.

There was immediate warm applause at the scene.

Zhang Zhihua announced loudly: "OK, now the mentors' votes are out."

"The Red Rose Band received 100 mentor tickets!"

“Full ticket!”

"Let's congratulate the Red Rose Band!"

Zhang Zhihua led the applause.

There was applause and cheers at the scene again.

When the noise died down a bit, he continued, "Next, the voting channel for the public review will be closed soon."

"Please vote as soon as possible if you have not yet voted. The countdown is 10 seconds..."

Wait for the countdown to end.

Zhang Zhihua read another advertisement.

"Now, let's reveal the public's vote count."

"Please look at the big screen!"

As Zhang Zhihua spoke, everyone's eyes fell on the big screen.

A line of numbers scrolled quickly.

The thousands digit returns to zero!

The hundreds digit is nine!

Next, the tens and ones digits stop rolling one after another.

Digital frame: 0962

"Red Rose Band received 962 votes from the public!"

"The total number of votes is 1062!"

“Temporarily ranked first!”

“Congratulations to the Red Rose Band!”

Zhang Zhihua announced loudly.

The audience burst into warm applause again.

Chen Qingzhu and Lin Xiamo, mother and daughter, quickly expressed their gratitude.

Return to the lounge.

Chen Qingzhu let out a long sigh, then said with a smile: "At least I didn't hold you back."

"Auntie, you're not only not holding us back, you're actually leading us!"

"Yes, yes, super stable!"

"Steady than Momo!"

Hu Tingting and Zhu Xinyue both praised it.

Fang Di also nodded: "This time I really performed better than during rehearsal."

"Okay, I'll listen carefully!"

"You kids!"

Chen Qingzhu was smiling happily. Although she had rich stage experience, it was her first time to appear on such a highly watched program as "Voice of China". It was impossible for her to not be nervous.

Before going on stage, she nervously went to the bathroom.

Fortunately, there were no mistakes during the performance and she was very satisfied with her performance.

At this moment, Chen Qingzhu was already looking forward to the show being broadcast.

Although the feedback from the instructors and the audience was very good, there were only a little over 1,000 people on site. Compared with tens of millions or even hundreds of millions of viewers, the sample size was still too small.

She still wants to see the reactions of netizens and viewers after the show is broadcast.

As a “retired singer”, does she still have the ability to make use of her remaining energy?

"I'll send a message to Akiyama and tell him."

Chen Qingzhu couldn't wait to share this joy with Shen Qiushan, her son-in-law who strongly supported her.

It's another weekend.

The quarterfinals of "Voice of China" will be broadcast as scheduled.

Due to time constraints, the quarterfinals were split into two parts.

This episode is about the "Singing Contest".

Eight o'clock in the evening.

Lin family.

Chen Qingzhu sat in front of the TV early.

"No, where's my news?"

"What the hell are you looking at?"

Lin Moxuan made himself a pot of tea and sat on the sofa.

His original rhythm was to drink tea while watching the evening news and paying attention to current political events.

As a result, his wife Chen Qingzhu was staring at the TV and watching commercials.

"Don't move!"

“No news today!”

Chen Qingzhu simply put the remote control away.

"Um?"

“What do you watch if not the news?”

Lin Moxuan frowned and said with a stern face: "You know I'm doing this for work!"

"After being the director's family member for so many years, why is it that your ideological awareness is still not improving?"

“That’s enough!”

"Don't talk to me about ideological awareness!"

Chen Qingzhu curled her lips and didn't buy it at all: "The latest episode of Voice of China will be aired soon."

"Don't you want to see Momo?"

“Is it going to be broadcast again?”

Lin Moxuan put the cup in his hand on the coffee table and said as if he didn't care: "There's nothing to see. Momo's performance is not always good."

"However, I still think she is more suitable to work in a university. After the competition is over, she still needs to work hard."

Lin Moxuan still doesn't know that his daughter Lin Xiamo has resigned.

Director Lin is still dreaming that after the competition, Lin Xiamo will be able to focus on work.

"I think Momo is suitable to be a singer!"

"Look at how comfortable she is on stage."

Of course Chen Qingzhu knew about Lin Xiamo's resignation.

However, she had already been "turned against" and was now completely on the side of Shen Qiushan and Lin Xiamo.

According to the plan of the three, they would tell Lin Moxuan about their resignation after the Voice of China ended.

"How do you know she's not doing a great job at the university?"

Lin Moxuan curled his lips slightly. He always felt that his daughter was more suitable for a stable job within the system.

"Okay, stop talking."

“The show has begun!”

Chen Qingzhu was too lazy to argue, and silently complained in his heart: What do you know! Momo resigned a long time ago!

As Chen Qingzhu spoke, Lin Moxuan's eyes subconsciously fell on the TV screen.

He said he didn't care.

In fact, of course, I am still very concerned about my daughter's performance in the show.

After all, she is Lin Moxuan's daughter!

However, just as he was waiting to see his daughter, another familiar figure appeared on the TV screen.

Lin Moxuan was stunned. He subconsciously turned his head and looked at his wife sitting next to him: "No, you..."
