The scene fell silent again.

The director couldn't stop the live stream either; things had gotten too out of hand, and stopping it wouldn't have helped. He could only try to find a way to salvage the situation.

Xia Xinghui looked at the audience with a determined gaze.

I'd like to say a few words.

"The reason I voted for Hezi is because I think that as a pioneer in virtual idols in China, it's not easy, and it deserves encouragement..."

Here, Xia Xinghui didn't dare to reveal his hand, and didn't dare to say it was the production team's requirement, so he could only find a tactful way to put it.

"But the one I really want to vote for is Su Can!"

This is what he really thinks.

“I have approved of every performance by Su Can since the start of the competition! I gave him a push when he sang ‘Xiaochou’ in the first round! His rendition of ‘Shi Nian’ was also very good. Today’s ‘Qinghua Ci’, I think he has ushered in a new era of Chinese style music.”

"No matter who I vote for, I hope everyone can support original singers who truly love music and make music with their hearts. I also hope that there can be less trickery and more sincerity in the entertainment industry!"

Thunderous applause erupted once again.

Xia Xinghui's fans were chanting his name wildly.

Even passersby who initially disliked Xia Xinghui began to change their opinions of him.

Xia Xinghui is right!

[I never expected him to be so well-behaved, yet he stepped up at such a crucial moment. Good job!]

More and more people are daring to speak the truth, which is a good thing!

Security guards have arrived at the back of the stage.

Yang Chenyi deliberately pointed at Xue Zhiqian and shouted, "Someone is causing trouble. Get him off the stage and don't let him affect the competition!"

The security guards planned to go up and pull Su Can and Xue Zhiqian away.

Yang Mier spoke up.

"Let's see who dares to touch him!"

At this moment, all the guests from Jiaxing Media who came to assist in the performance stood up.

Yang Mier led Zhang Binbin, Zhu Xudan, Gao Weiguang, and others onto the stage.

With a smile on her beautiful face, she coldly retorted to Yang Chenyi.

"I'm from Jiaxing Media, and I'd like to see who dares to use such a lame excuse to kick him off the stage!"

Yang Mier stood in front of Su Can.

At this moment, Su Can and the other Jiaxing people were deeply moved. Sister Mi'er is 2.8 meters tall!

Just as Yang Chenyi was about to say something, he suddenly noticed that a large group of audience members had stood up.

First, Su Can's fans acted like slackers, holding up ugly homemade light boards and colorful glow sticks.

They made up about a quarter of the audience.

Next came Yang Mier, six Jiaxing celebrities, Xia Xinghui's fans, and fans of Chi Xia and Ming Le, who were closest to Su Can.

A whole bunch of them stood up in a flash.

They already make up half of the audience.

But the story isn't over yet!

Fans of the other contestants also stood up.

"If we don't unite to oppose the shady dealings, then sooner or later, the shady dealings will also fall on our idols!"

Apart from Yang Chenyi's fans, almost all the audience members stood up!

Everyone glared angrily at Yang Chenyi.

"A cover-up, a cover-up, a cover-up!"

The people at the scene shouted in unison.

The person in charge, Sister Li, rushed over in a panic, wanting to ask Su Can to come down.

But then Su Can patted Yang Mi'er on the shoulder.

His voice was gentle, as if he were speaking softly to an old friend he had known for many years.

"Sister Mi'er, don't worry, leave this to me."

Yang Mier was surprised, "Are you sure you can do it?"

"Okay, definitely!" Su Can grinned, revealing a row of big white teeth, looking very happy.

"Okay!" Yang Mier stepped aside.

Su Can walked to the front of the stage, raised his hands, and made a gesture of pressing down.

"Don't be nervous, everyone, the game will continue."

In his anxiety, Xue Zhiqian asked loudly, "Can Can, do you still want to continue the competition?"

Su Can smiled and said, "Of course, I haven't finished singing my song yet!"

Both the person in charge, Sister Li, and Zhang Xiaoxiao had large beads of cold sweat on their foreheads.

This Su Can is so unpredictable!

But we can't just kick him out right now!

Su Can picked up the microphone.

"This should be a broadcasting mishap. Let's forget about it. The competition will proceed as normal from now on."

The audience was stunned.

Why did it proceed normally again?

Su Can continued, "I'm calling on my fans not to vote for me. Let's let everything happen naturally! I don't want any data or rankings, I don't want these disgusting things from the fandom. I won't allow any capital to manipulate my fans and make them waste their money. I will boycott this trash culture!"

Su Can's words were powerful and resounding, winning applause from the audience.

Zhang Xiaoxiao had no choice but to say, "Then let's forget about these unpleasant things and ask all other unrelated personnel to leave the stage."

"Su Can and He Zi are tied at two to two. Next, we will enter the three-minute PK round. The race is now open, please vote."

Hezi's votes suddenly soared to hundreds of thousands.

Although Su Can was very popular, he did not encourage his fans to vote for him and even asked them not to vote. In the end, he only received a few hundred thousand votes.

Zhang Xiaoxiao announced this with trepidation.

"Alright, according to the voting results, He Zi advances. Su Can, please enter the elimination zone and wait for the PK!"

Su Can walked confidently into the elimination zone.

The comments section was still flooded with topics related to behind-the-scenes manipulation.

Su Can didn't care.

During this period, the negative energy value on his system panel increased by another ten million.

I'm very satisfied with how quickly I made money!

Furthermore, when pop diva and Chen Kai's aunt, Wang Xiaona, attacked him and Luo Yang, Su Can said he would take action.
