Soon, the results of the competition in the Non-Non Kingdom were released, and their score today was indeed much higher than yesterday.
The fact that Fei Fei Guo's score was higher than yesterday was already expected by everyone.
Because their current piece of music has truly received support and love from countless people.
After the performance by the Non-Non Kingdom, other countries took turns performing on stage.
The European Union and the United Nations followed closely behind the African Union in taking power.
A dozen minutes later, both countries finished their performances, and their music was also very good.
However, their score was still lower than that of the Non-Non Kingdom, because they did not choose the right piece of music like the Non-Non Kingdom did.
Therefore, it is difficult for them to gain more audience support.
Not only in Europe, but in several other countries as well, their scores did not surpass those of the Non-Non-Non-Nation.
...
An hour or two passed quickly, and so far, six or seven countries have taken the stage in today's world music competition.
Among these six or seven countries, the one with the highest score is Fei Fei, while the others are roughly equal.
Besides these six or seven countries, only Wang Qingge and her group, along with the Sakura Country and the Beautiful Country, are left to participate.
Now it's time for them to take the stage.
After other countries finished performing, the host said on stage, "Alright, viewers from all over the world."
"The finals of this year's World Music Competition have already been held in six or seven countries."
"The following are the last three countries, who were also the top three yesterday."
"Then let them come on stage and give us, and the people of the world, their performance."
"Let's wait and see which country will ultimately win the World Music Competition."
"Alright, the next country to go on stage is the Sakura Country, please get ready."
"The Cherry Blossom Country ranked third in yesterday's rankings. What kind of music will they bring us today?"
Let's all look forward to it together.
"Please welcome the Cherry Blossom Country to the stage."
After the host finished speaking, the Japanese nation of Sakura finally took the stage.
Today, the cherry blossom country is no longer sending just one person on stage, as it did yesterday; instead, more than a dozen people are appearing together.
"Ah! Ah!" Upon seeing the people from Japan appear, the hundreds of thousands of people in the audience screamed.
Those who support them are even more heartbroken and shouting for them.
The excitement lasted for about a minute before it gradually subsided.
After the room quieted down, the host asked the contestant from Japan.
"Fellow athletes, are you confident that you can perform better today than yesterday?"
Upon hearing the host's words, the leader from the Sakura Kingdom said, "We are confident, and we hope to do even better than yesterday."
"Really? Then I wonder what kind of piece you've prepared for today?"
"Host, the piece we've prepared for today is a newly composed piece called 'Home on the Other Side'."
"Oh, home on the other side, is that the longing for one's hometown?"
Upon hearing the words "Japan of Cherry Blossoms," the host immediately asked if it was a song expressing longing for one's hometown.
Japan, the land of cherry blossoms, proudly replied, "Yes, host, the song we are performing today is meant to express our feelings for our hometown and our birthplace."
After the country of Sakura explained it this way, everyone finally understood, and it was only then that they realized it.
It turns out that the piece of music they prepared today is related to their hometown.
...
In the lounge, Wang Qingge and the others, watching everything unfold, were somewhat surprised by the piece that the Sakura Kingdom was going to play today.
Yesterday, Japan, the land of cherry blossoms, achieved such a high ranking with a war-themed song.
Therefore, not only Wang Qingge and the others, but also others believed that Japan would definitely follow the same path as yesterday.
I thought they would continue to use war-themed music to participate in this world music competition, just like yesterday.
But now they have chosen a song about their hometown, a song of longing for their homeland.
This was indeed a huge surprise, exceeding many people's expectations.
After all, many people believe that since Japan used war-themed music yesterday and gained such good benefits, it's understandable.
They shouldn't have given up, but they didn't continue using that piece in the competition today.
This was something that even Wang Qingge and the others hadn't anticipated.
Han Zhixuan then said, "Is this cherry blossom country acting strangely today? Why aren't they choosing that kind of music?"
Chen Xin also offered her own opinion, saying, "It's possible that they don't have that many war-related songs anymore."
"Or maybe it's because their piece from yesterday was the best of all their war-themed pieces, which is why they're using other types now."
What Chen Xin said was perhaps the closest to the truth, and Chen Tiancheng echoed her sentiments.
"No matter what kind of music your opponent chooses, don't let your guard down."
"The fact that they dared to participate in the competition means that their compositions are also quite good."
"There's even a strong possibility that their current piece is much better than yesterday's."
After Chen Tiancheng said that, Wang Qingge and the others stopped talking and quietly watched everything, waiting for the next performance from the Sakura Kingdom.
But to Wang Qingge's and everyone else's utter surprise, their thinking was wrong.
Because the song performed in Japan today is not what everyone thinks at all.
...
The host then asked on stage, "Contestants from the Land of Cherry Blossoms, your performance today is truly something to look forward to."
"Because many of us have experienced leaving our hometown or our birthplace."
"So your piece is also meant to express a person's longing for their hometown after leaving it, right?"
After the host asked this question, the contestant from the Sakura Country replied, "Yes, host, but our piece today..."
"It's not that I wanted to express my longing for my hometown after leaving it."
"Ah, you're not trying to express your longing for your hometown after leaving it? What is it then?"
The answer from the Japanese nation puzzled not only the host, but everyone at that moment was somewhat confused as to why they said that.
The contestant from Japan explained directly, "Because the song we're performing isn't about leaving our hometown."
"It is the longing of people who have lost their homes and everything because of the war for their hometown and their birthplace."
