Chapter 255 254. We have four world-class teams! How can he win? (Subscribe)

Diana was about to start asking questions, but when she saw Adam and his men, she stopped, looked over, and whispered to Wang Qian, "Mr. Wang Qian, Adam is here. Do you know him?"

Wang Qian shook his head slightly: "I don't know him. I've only seen Adam's performances on the Internet."

Diana asked again: "What do you think of contestant Adam?"

Wang Qian glanced at Diana and asked, "Is this also a question for the interview?"

Diana nodded: "Yes, the camera is on and the interview has begun."

Wang Qian smiled and said, "Adam is the most talented young singer I have ever seen. His voice and breath are simply born for singing."

This is the truth spoken by Wang Qian, and it is also the evaluation given by many media and professionals in the field of pop music!

Adam's voice is simply amazing, and coupled with the natural strong aura of European and American singers, he is indeed a genius born for singing.

However, he discovered this talent a little late.

If Adam had started practicing singing and developing his singing talent since he was a child, he might not have needed to be on The Voice and would have become famous a long time ago. His current achievements might even be comparable to those of Kristen. After all, Kristen has always been low-key and does not hype herself, so she only has about 30 million fans.

If Adam had become famous early on, with his singing talent and good looks, and with good publicity and management, he would have had great potential.

Adam also came over at this time. He didn't just smile and walked towards Wang Qian. When he was still two steps away, he stretched out his hand, smiled and said in broken Chinese: "Hello, Mr. Wang Qian."

Wang Qian also extended his hand to Adam and said in English: "Hello, Mr. Adam, nice to meet you."

Adam was not surprised by Wang Qian's English level. After all, he had listened to Wang Qian's two English rock songs. Those pure English songs showed that the creator's English language level was not inferior to that of North American natives.

Adam smiled and said, "I'm glad to meet you too. I've listened to your songs many times. The Phoenix and I hate myself for voicing you! are the two rock songs that surprised me the most this year. Especially the second one, your voice changing singing method is incredible. Until now I still can't believe that your voice can change like this."

I have to say.

Adam has a very good appearance, with a square, resolute and sunny face, clear and angular features, and golden hair. He has attracted tens of millions of fans in just half a year. This face also has a huge contribution, as it completely conforms to the aesthetic of Europeans and Americans.

In the entertainment industry anywhere in the world, relying on good looks to become famous is the fastest and most convenient way.

In the era of mobile Internet explosion, many traffic stars have emerged in China. They don't know anything, but their looks are enough to make them as popular and appealing as first-tier star singers.

In fact, this phenomenon also exists in Europe and the United States.

There are also many stars and internet celebrities who make a living simply by their looks, but it is difficult for these stars and internet celebrities to enter the real upper-class entertainment circle. At most, they can be hyped on the Internet, but they cannot become the male and female protagonists of big productions, nor can they go global through Hollywood.

If Adam didn't sing, he could still become a popular internet celebrity simply by selling his looks and his good looks, and he would definitely be doing well in North America.

only.

Adam was also quite disgusted by this. He didn't want others to look at his appearance, but wanted to rely on his real strength to become famous! Therefore, after becoming famous, Adam rejected several invitations to be on the cover of fashion magazines and only accepted invitations from several professional magazines in the field of pop music.

And now, he looked at Wang Qian and felt that Wang Qian was simply unkempt.

Adam doesn't want to rely on his looks to make a living, but he cares a lot about his appearance. Every time he performs and appears in front of the media, he will be styled by a professional styling team, and he always looks very good.

What about Wang Qian? He looked at Wang Qian and could tell that Wang Qian really had not been made up by any professional makeup artist or stylist. He was completely bare-faced, with no makeup on his face, no trimming of his hair, and a simple suit. It was not even the work of a famous Italian designer, but just an ordinary brand.

Such attire is so ordinary that it cannot be more ordinary on the stage.

But Adam could see it.

Wang Qian has the capital to make a living by relying on his good looks.

Her facial features are perfect, her body is well-proportioned, and her height is similar to mine, about 1.80 meters. If she dresses up well, she can even be a model.

Moreover, Wang Qian has a mature and steady temperament, as well as an artistic temperament, which Adam envied very much! Standing there!

Adam seemed to see a great artist at a concert.

It made him feel shorter than he actually was and a little nervous.

After saying this, Adam quickly withdrew his hand, and his palms unconsciously showed some sweat.

Wang Qian didn't mind Adam's quick withdrawal of his hand. He still smiled and said, "Thank you. Your singing was also great. The live effect was very good. To be honest, I almost doubt whether you have installed a mixer on your back. Your singing is simply amazing."

Qin Xuerong, Jiang Yu, Murong Yue, Zhou Qinghua, He Dongming, Zhao Wei, and He Fulin who were standing behind Wang Qian also kept smiling as they listened to the two men's business exaggerations.

Ceci and Winston, who were standing behind Adam, had calm expressions on their faces, and they just looked at Wang Qian carefully.

From the perspective of Ceci and Winston, they couldn't find any fault with Wang Qian.

If I have to point out a flaw, it's that his attire is too ordinary and doesn't bring out his strengths.

but!

Both of them are old-school musicians, so they appreciate and like Wang Qian's style more. Although it does not conform to the current trend, it is very individual.

Ceci is someone who can go on stage and perform in jeans and a T-shirt.

Adam laughed: "Haha, yes, the production team installed a mixer for me and I hid it on my back."

There was no personal grudge between the two, so they spoke politely.

Wang Qian also smiled and said, "That's great, that's amazing."

Adam shook his head. "No matter how good I am, I can't sing a song like "I hate myself for loving you!" And I can't write such a wonderful song. You are the one I am most looking forward to in this competition."

Wang Qian: “Me too.”

Adam looked inside and said goodbye, "I'll go to the stage first. I've been preparing for the next performance recently. I'm more nervous than you. I can't come to the scene right after the performance."

Wang Qian: "You don't need to be nervous, this is your territory!"

Adam's smile was a little awkward, and he said softly, "Because this is my territory, I have to perform better. Can you sing rock music?"

He felt that Wang Qian was hiding something.

But he knew it was also true, this was his home ground.

However, after hearing Winston say that last time, he became more sensitive and always felt that this sentence was a satire on him.

Wang Qian answered affirmatively: "Of course, rock is one of my favorite music genres."

Seeing Adam about to leave, Diana stepped forward and said, "Adam, do you think Wang Qian will put pressure on you?"

Adam nodded affirmatively: "Of course, he is the source of my stress."

Diana: "Are you ready? I really like your performance."

Diana is also one of Adam's fans, and her eyes are full of stars as she looks at Adam.

Adam smiled slightly, a little proud, "I'm ready! Sorry, Diana, I'll go in first. I want to walk around the stage and get familiar with it."

Diana: "Okay Adam, good luck!"

Adam: “Thank you, Diana!”

After saying that, Adam smiled at Wang Qian again, then turned and walked in, behaving very politely and gentlemanly.

Diana looked at Adam's back and didn't want to take her eyes away.

Ceci didn't speak to Wang Qian and the others, she just nodded slightly and left.

However, Winston did not leave immediately. Instead, he came to Wang Qian, shook hands with him politely, and said, "Hello, I like your music very much."

Wang Qian didn't know Winston, so he smiled politely and said, "Thank you."

Winston didn't say much, nor did he introduce himself. He just turned around and left.

Zhou Qinghua obviously knew about these contestants and their collaborators. After watching Winston leave, he explained to Wang Qian, "The one who didn't speak is Ceci, Adam's mentor. Like Lao Cui who just left, he is one of the top ten judges this time. The one who shook hands with you and talked to you is Winston, one of the world's top music producers and Adam's current collaborator. It is said that Winston is creating music tailor-made for Adam and will also be Adam's record producer in the future."

Wang Qian nodded: "I understand!"

Watched Adam and his companions leave.

Diana also withdrew her gaze from Adam's back and continued to interview Wang Qian, "Contestant Wang Qian, according to the information we have learned. You did not prepare well for the World Championship in China a few days ago, but instead wrote a novel. Why is that? Why don't you study your music well and prepare for the World Championship?"

This issue is also quite acute.

Wang Qian had heard other media reporters ask this question several times along the way, but he ignored them. Now he had to answer it, and he said firmly: "Because I think I'm ready."

Diana asked, "We've already prepared for the World Championships, so there's no need to prepare?"

Wang Qian nodded: "Yes, that's the reason."

Diana: "So, you are very confident? Will you continue the rock style performance this time?"

Wang Qian smiled and said, "People who play rock music must have enough confidence and always believe in themselves. I promised all my fans in China that I will bring them a championship!"

Diana's eyes lit up: "Is this your declaration of victory?"

Wang Qian nodded: "Yes. Since it is a competition, I naturally want to win the championship."

Diana: "Okay, then, contestant Wang Qian, who among the other contestants do you think is most worthy of your attention?"

Wang Qian: "Adam, Sophie, Elizabeth!"

These three are the three popular contestants who ranked ahead of him on the first voting list.

Therefore, in this ranking, strength and popularity are almost directly proportional. There are generally no players without strength who can hype up their popularity.

Diana: "Which female contestant do you think is the most beautiful?"

Are you here to gossip?

Several people around looked at Diana.

Wang Qian: “They are all very beautiful!”

Diana: "Okay, your answer is very smart. It's hard to imagine that you have only debuted for half a year. You give me the feeling of being a veteran who has debuted for decades! I am looking forward to your next performance."

Wang Qian: “Thank you!”

The interview ended on a friendly note.

Wang Qian took Qin Xuerong, Jiang Yu, Murong Yue and others to the venue inside.

Zhou Qinghua said softly: "Adam just went in first, should we wait?"

Wang Qian nodded: "Okay, let's wait at the door."

In this world championship, the international operations team still gave the players the greatest power of choice and freedom of performance.

The contestants do not need to rehearse for the live performance. They only need to practice the order of appearance and movement in the morning of the performance.

Normally, the performance venue is open, and contestants can come and check out the venue at any time to practice live performances and get a feel for it!

It’s just that each contestant values ​​his or her own performance very much and doesn’t want to be seen by other contestants and then be targeted by them.

Therefore, when almost every player comes to the venue to practice, they will not let other players in!

Everyone at the scene also signed a confidentiality agreement, and no details about the players' practice at the scene could be leaked.

This year's Voice of China has done a great job in keeping people on suspense.

The media outside want to interview this information, and many fans and audiences are also very much looking forward to the performance, but the official just doesn't let you know in advance.

The expectations are maxed out.

Once a contestant makes a mistake in his performance on stage, the consequences will be very serious, basically indicating that he is not far from being eliminated.

Wang Qian, Qin Xuerong and others were waiting at the entrance and chatting.

Buzz buzz buzz...

Just a few minutes.

Wang Qian's phone rang.

It was an unfamiliar number, and a North American number.

Wang Qian had never saved it, but he had some impression of it.

If it wasn't from the show, then it was basically the piano genius from the Curtis Institute, Taylor! In North America, only Taylor spoke to him on the phone.

The call was connected.

A joyful and clear voice came from the phone: "Wang Qian, have you arrived in Los Angeles?"

Taylor still spoke not very fluent Chinese, but his tone was full of anticipation and joy.

Wang Qian: “Just arrived yesterday.”

Taylor: “Everything going well?”

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

Wang Qian: "It's OK. I just accepted an interview with the program team. The program team was quite friendly to me."

Taylor: "That's great. My teacher and I have already booked tickets to Los Angeles, and we will watch your performance there. My teacher is looking forward to meeting you. Some of your piano pieces are very popular in the Curtis Institute. In fact, they are now the most popular piano pieces in New York."

"It's been a long time since people have heard music that makes them feel surprised and novel. There haven't been any good piano works published in the past 20 to 30 years. Obviously, several of your pieces have achieved this."

Wang Qian smiled and said, "Thank you. I look forward to meeting you too."

Taylor: "In fact, the vice president of our college met with me and Professor Dawson yesterday. He said that he hopes we can invite you to perform at the Curtis Institute. A lot of people are looking forward to meeting you, and many people in the college want to see your performance in person."

Wang Qian: "I'm sorry, I don't think I have time recently. You know, I have to concentrate on preparing for this competition. I don't want to lose."

Taylor: "It's okay. Maybe after your competition is over, our dean will formally invite you. By the way, I will go to Huaxia to hold a concert next month. I have already negotiated it. Can I invite you to be my guest performer then? By then, your competition will definitely be over."

Wang Qian: "Are you finally going to start your own concert? It would be my honor to be your guest performer. I will definitely go when the time comes."

Taylor: "That's great. I won't talk to you anymore. If you have time in the afternoon, I will invite you to come out and play."

Wang Qian: "Okay, bye."

Taylor: “Bye!”

Hang up the phone.

Wang Qian looked at Qin Xuerong, Jiang Yu, Murong Yue and the others and explained, "Taylor! Do you remember him? The one with purple hair from Curtis College?"

Jiang Yu nodded: "Of course I remember, she is one of the top ten young pianists in North America, and she is also a beautiful woman. This year she is a celebrity in the North American piano world, and she is about to start her world tour, and will also perform in our China. Did she invite you to be a guest?"

Wang Qian: "Yes, I agree."

Jiang Yu remained silent.

Although she and Wang Qian have been playing in a rock band for such a long time, the piano is still always on her mind, and she never stops practicing the piano during her rest time every day.

She still has her dreams.

And Taylor is already on the road to success.

Murong Yue said softly, "Actually, last night, my former tutor at Berklee contacted me. He said he wanted to invite you, Wang Qian, to Berklee through me. They are interested in your piano, but more interested in your pop music. Berklee is more focused on pop music. My tutor has studied the songs you have released in the past six months and said he really wants to talk to you."

Am I so popular now?

Wang Qian still refused: "Forget it, I don't have time."

Murong Yue: "Tomorrow, they will come to Los Angeles to watch the opening performance of The Voice. They will probably come to see you."

Wang Qian smiled and said, “Come on!”

When a few people were chatting.

Adam was standing on the stage inside, looking at the densely packed seats and the surrounding lights, imagining how he would be the center of attention during his performance, and the cheers would surely be loud.

but!

Thinking of his first meeting with Wang Qian just now, Adam calmed down again.

to be honest.

He was really afraid of Wang Qian.

Otherwise, he wouldn't have worked so hard recently and wouldn't have been able to tolerate Winston. It was all because of the huge pressure from Wang Qian that forced him to keep a low profile and work hard.

Ceci and Winston, as well as several other people from the show crew, watched from the audience.

Winston said, "Adam still has room for improvement. His stage style is already excellent, but it's not enough. Do you know what I felt when I saw Wang Qian just now?"

Cece was not impressed with Winston and asked calmly, "What do you feel?"

Winston said seriously, "I feel like I'm facing a world-class master musician. His temperament makes me want to worship him! I have met several master music artists, but none of them gave me such a strong feeling. This kind of temperament requires very strong musical talent and rich musical thinking to cultivate. I have a feeling that he will shock the world on stage this time."

"If Adam doesn't work harder, there will be real danger."

Cece stared at Winston. "I don't know where you got this feeling from, but I didn't. I just saw an older player. He is nearly ten years older than Adam and looks very old. He is also very unprofessional. He doesn't have a professional team to run the show, nor does he have a professional styling team."

"He is just like a passerby on the street. He can't attract people on the stage. People nowadays like to see something that can make their eyes light up. Obviously, Wang Qian doesn't have that."

Although Sisi also has a simple and plain style, he also knows that this era is the era of the eye-catching economy. No matter what you do, the most important thing is to attract everyone's attention first, and then people will explore your inner self!

Adam has a professional operations team behind him who manages his Facebook and other social accounts every day, interacts with many fans, and attracts more people.

There is also a professional styling team, and every public appearance will take at least an hour to style and dress up.

There is also a professional team of top producers, Winston's team, who tailor-made music for Adam. The song selection and re-arrangement are all based on Adam's own strengths and characteristics. The singing effect in the recording studio is already very good.

There is also a professional top accompaniment team!

Yes.

The company also hired a top accompaniment team in Los Angeles for Adam. This is a top professional team in Los Angeles that has accompanied many big-name stars. The live effects are world-class, and many of the musicians are world-class.

This is also the style of the top ten champions this time. Almost none of them used the accompaniment invited by the official operation team, and all of them brought their own bands.

Adam prepared four world-class teams for this competition! What about Wang Qian? In addition to the four band members around him.

Nothing else.

There is no operations team.

There is no makeup and styling team.

There is no production team.

The four band members all looked very ordinary! Two pretty girls who looked very young, and two middle-aged men who were still unknown.

How can he beat Adam? Ceci thinks that Wang Qian may be eliminated by the German player in the first round.

After all, he knew that the changes in the competition system were extremely unfair to Asian players. Coupled with Wang Qian's unprofessionalism, he might be eliminated in the first round.

When the time comes, he will definitely be the first to send his sincere "blessings" to this "genius" that everyone praises! Adam walked around the stage for a few times, sang a few notes with the microphone, found the feeling, and then walked down, saying: "This stage is really great, I can't wait to start the performance."

Cece: "You can do it tomorrow night, you will be the first to perform."

Adam smiled, looking forward to it.

This is the home advantage.

The first performance at the opening will definitely attract the most attention and leave the most profound impression on everyone.

At this time, a person in charge of the program team said: "Adam, I forgot to tell you. At the opening show tomorrow night, there will be a piano performance at the beginning, and then your performance."

The smile on Adam's face froze, and he frowned and asked, "Sir, whose piano performance is this?"

The person in charge said, "You should know Taylor, a talented pianist at the Curtis Institute. She is the most popular young pianist in North America this year. We approached her several times, and she agreed to let us perform this morning. We arranged it for the first performance at the beginning, which will definitely give everyone a surprise."

Adam's eyes flickered as he asked softly, "What will she play?"

He knew very well that the reason why Taylor had become the most popular young pianist in North America recently was because she had played several of Wang Qian's high-level piano pieces for the first time, which made these pieces popular in North America and became practice repertoires for many piano lovers. Both parties achieved mutual success.

The person in charge thought for a moment and said, "It seems to be called the Girl's Prayer!"

Adam's face turned serious and he turned and left immediately.

He doesn't want to talk anymore.

Cece and Winston followed.

Cece: "Adam, what's wrong?"

Adam said nothing.

Winston said calmly, "The Girl's Prayer is one of the outstanding piano pieces composed by Wang Qian. An authoritative classical music magazine in New York ranked this piece third among the best piano pieces of the year."

Ceci was surprised: "Is this a song composed by Wang Qian? Is that the Wang Qian we met just now?"

Winston said calmly, "Cessi, you should put away your damn pride and blindness. You should get to know your opponent better. Do you know what piano pieces are ranked first and second?"

Silent Ceci!

Adam, who was walking in front, also did not speak.

Winston continued, "The first one is Wang Qian's To Xue Rong. This piano piece is a perfect work of genius. It is easy to learn, elegant and pleasant to listen to, and has a complete structure. You can't find any flaws. The second one is Magic City March! Perhaps you also need to know that the fourth one is Wedding in a Dream. These four pieces are all Wang Qian's works!"

"Yes, his four pieces almost dominate the top spots on this year's classical music charts. Any authoritative media outlet must rank his pieces in the top ten. Otherwise, it would be unfair."

"Now, do you know why he is said to be the world's number one genius?"

Ceci and Adam remained silent, opened the door and walked out.

Standing at the door waiting were Wang Qian and his companions.

Wang Qian saw Adam and the others and nodded with a smile.

Adam forced a smile and then left quickly.

Ceci, Winston and others also followed and just nodded politely to Wang Qian.

Watched the group leave.

Zhou Qinghua walked in with Wang Qian and his party.

On stage at the Staples Center.

Wang Qian stood in the center of the stage and felt very good.

The person in charge of a program group in the audience looked at the time and said, "Sir, you only have ten minutes. Contestant Sophie and Elizabeth are on their way."

Wang Qian, Zhou Qinghua and others all frowned and looked at the person in charge of the program team.
