Chapter 256 255. Tough attitude! In my heart, he is the music itself! (Subscribe)

Only ten minutes?

Wang Qian didn't say anything and looked at Zhou Qinghua.

Zhou Qinghua is the director of the Chinese program group. He is now a member of the international operations team and the leader of the Chinese team. He should be the one to negotiate on such matters.

Zhou Qinghua nodded, and walked up with the translator who accompanied the team and asked, "Why only ten minutes? Ten minutes is not enough to walk around it. Adam just stayed for nearly an hour. We hope to be treated fairly."

The person in charge was a middle-aged white man. He looked at Wang Qian, then at Zhou Qinghua, with a calm expression on his face. He just said, "Mr. Adam came early and had an appointment yesterday. All the players who made an appointment will have one hour."

Zhou Qinghua: "We also made an appointment last night and arranged a time in the morning, so we came."

The middle-aged man shook his head. “I’m sorry, I didn’t know about this. Your names aren’t on the schedule. I’m giving you ten minutes as a gesture of kindness.”

Zhou Qinghua smiled and said in a tone that did not give in at all: "Then I am also very sorry. We also need an hour. If you force us to leave, then I will make today's events public and announce that the Chinese program team will withdraw from this world competition. We will return to China immediately. We do not accept any discrimination or deliberate harassment."

He Dongming gave Zhou Qinghua a thumbs up from behind and whispered to Wang Qian, "Director Zhou is still very reliable to the outside world. When we go out, we have to be more assertive. The most important thing is that the income of each of the ten major competition areas is still in the supervision account of each program group and has not been aggregated together."

"Our Chinese region is the second largest revenue source after North America. If we withdraw, they will lose this part of the revenue."

"So, they definitely don't dare to drive us away."

Qin Xuerong nodded: "That's right. The North American region believes that they have won and they definitely don't want to give up the huge income in the Chinese region."

The division that wins the championship in the end can get half of the total profits of the top ten divisions as its reward, and the remaining nine divisions can share the remaining half.

Therefore, in the eyes of the North American program team, a considerable portion of China's money already belongs to them.

In the international operations group, the North American program team as well as the record companies, TV stations, brokerage companies, etc. in North America all have significant influence, and all parties will put pressure on the program team for their own interests.

Although Wang Qian from the Chinese division has some strength, Adam is also extremely strong. Coupled with the favorable home-court advantage of the competition system, they believe they are almost certain to win.

The Chinese division posed no threat, but contributed a lot of profits.

So! No one wants to see the Chinese division withdraw from the competition.

Several people from the program crew who were watching the show were stunned for a moment. They didn't expect Zhou Qinghua to be so strong right from the start, leaving no room for easing.

He's going to quit the competition as soon as he comes up.

Aren’t they said that Chinese people are low-key and tolerant when they are abroad?

Isn't it just about accepting what comes your way?

The middle-aged man in charge was speechless for a moment, because he knew the seriousness of the matter and did not dare to speak, fearing that if he messed up, he would have to bear the anger of many people. Obviously, he knew that he could not bear the anger brought about by such a loss.

A middle-aged man came up from behind and said, "Oh, Zhou, I'm sorry. This was a mistake on his part. I just called the operations team. You did make an appointment yesterday. The next hour is yours. I'm sorry."

The man spoke very politely. He came up to Zhou Qinghua and shook hands. He then looked at Wang Qian, walked up to him, stretched out his hand and said, "Hello, contestant Wang Qian. I'm Fili, one of the leaders of the general production team. If you need anything in the future, you can contact me and I will do my best to help you."

Wang Qian said softly: “Thank you, I just need to get what I deserve, that’s enough, Mr. Fili.”

Zhou Qinghua looked at Fili and said seriously, "Mr. Fili, I don't want to see this happen again. This kind of action has no other meaning except to make me feel your malice and thus cause a rift in our cooperation this time and in the future."

This year is the first edition of The Voice of China and it has achieved such success.

For the sake of interests, there will definitely be a second, third, and even fourth, fifth, and sixth sessions.

If the cooperation this year is unpleasant, then the subsequent cooperation will definitely not be so smooth.

It may even cause one party to withdraw from the World Championship organization.

Fili came up and put his arm around Zhou Qinghua's shoulders, smiling and saying like a friend, "Mr. Zhou, I'm very sorry, very sorry, our work mistakes have caused you trouble. You can make some reasonable requests, and I will report them to the program team and get some support for you."

Zhou Qinghua shook his head: "No need, just like Wang Qian said, we just need fair treatment, we don't need you to give us special treatment."

Wang Qian looked at the carefully decorated stage and said, "Mr. Fili, I don't have much time. Can I go on stage and walk around?"

Fili quickly extended his hand: "Of course, please, Mr. Wang."

Wang Qian nodded, signaled to Qin Xuerong, Jiang Yu, Murong Yue, Zhao Wei, and He Fulin with his eyes, and then walked onto the stage first.

This is a standard large-scale evening party stage.

It is very large and the surrounding lighting is also carefully designed.

This venue was built about 20 years ago. It is a relatively new modern large venue in North America. It can accommodate 20,000 people and has many high-end boxes, as well as supporting living and entertainment facilities such as internal restaurants and gyms! Wang Qian learned from Zhou Qinghua that the tickets for tomorrow's performance had already been sold out.

However, the program crew was very smart and did not sell all the subsequent tickets at once, but sold them one by one. In this way, they could adjust the ticket price for the next show based on the specific situation of the previous show and maximize profits!

Judging from the current high level of attention and the strength of the top ten contestants, subsequent attention will continue to increase, and tickets will definitely become more and more expensive.

Wang Qian stood in the center of the stage, feeling the surroundings, left and right, holding the microphone in his hand, imagining himself standing there and singing.

Jiang Yu, Murong Yue, Zhao Wei and He Fulin were all quite excited.

after all!

This time, they will truly perform on the world stage for the first time.

It can be said that it has attracted worldwide attention!

Wang Qian, who was standing in the middle, also felt it and felt a little excited.

Two lives as a human being!

This is also the first time he has stood under such a spotlight and been noticed by the world!

Murong Yue turned around, then pointed at her feet and said excitedly: "Jiang Jiang, I will stand here and play the drums tomorrow...you stand next to me."

Jiang Yu smiled and said, "I'm standing here, not with you!"

Zhao Wei and He Fulin's eyes were excited but they behaved very calmly. After all, they were very old and could hold it in. However, their hands were clenched into fists.

Wang Qian stood in the middle with a smile on his face and his hands open, imagining the scene of the performance in his mind.

It lasted for about ten minutes.

Wang Qian opened his hands and said, "Okay, there's nothing to see. We're not dancing, just come over and take your place tomorrow."

Jiang Yu and Murong Yue both nodded, indicating that it was no problem.

Zhao Wei and He Fulin also said they were done.

They came to the scene not to practice or anything, but just to familiarize themselves with the venue so that they would not be nervous due to unfamiliarity.

It only took a dozen minutes, not even an hour.

In the audience.

Zhou Qinghua, He Dongming, Qin Xuerong and others stood there watching.

Fili walked in from the door, came to Zhou Qinghua and said, "Zhou, Elizabeth wants to come in and see Mr. Wang Qian."

Zhou Qinghua looked at Wang Qian who was on the stage with his eyes closed, feeling the stage feeling, and shook his head and said, "Wait a moment, we can't disturb Wang Qian now!"

Fili didn't say anything more and turned and walked out.

Standing at the door were the champion contestant Elizabeth from England and the champion contestant Sophie from Paris.

There was also Miyuki Nakamori sitting there not far away, resting and chatting.

Compared with Sophie, Miyuki Nakamori, and Maou Chiba, Elizabeth is indeed average in appearance, but she is definitely not ugly. It can only be said that she can't make a living by relying on her looks, otherwise she would have been famous long ago. With a little dressing up, she would be better looking than ordinary people.

Elizabeth and Sophie already knew each other and were chatting.

"Is Wang Qian in there? I really want to meet him and chat with him. His rock song with a different voice really shocked me."

Elizabeth said to Sophie.

Sophie smiled: "I saw him last night."

Elizabeth: "Are you so impatient?"

Sophie glanced at Elizabeth and said, "If he is willing, I wouldn't mind being his girlfriend. Although, I haven't dated him yet, but he is worth my effort. He is the first young pianist who has amazed me. In my eyes, he is the music itself. Unfortunately, he came with his girlfriend. We only chatted for a few words at the door."

Elizabeth smiled but said nothing: "Sophie, if you like it, you can go and grab it."

Sophie shook her head: "That's not good. He makes me feel like my father. He deserves my respect."

Elizabeth looked at Sophie: "Your father? Mr. Malone?"

Sophie also has a family tradition in the field of French classical music. Her father Marlon is a famous European master pianist of the older generation. He has held dozens of solo recitals, taught at the Piano Department of the Paris Conservatory of Music, and is also the dean of the Piano Department of the Paris Conservatory of Music. He can be said to be one of the representative figures in the field of French piano.

So! For a genius, talent is one part, but the family background is something that others cannot envy.

Ordinary people need to pay more to get to this point, but Sophie just let things take their course and things came naturally.

Elizabeth didn't expect that Sophie would compare Wang Qian with her father. This comparison was an absolute praise for Wang Qian.

Sophie nodded: "Yes, I have seen Wang Qian's piano performance video, which shocked me. His piano playing skills and personal style are almost world-class. In addition, the piano pieces he wrote are also excellent. It is no exaggeration to say that he is the best young pianist in the world."

"It's a pity that he is not a classical music major. Otherwise, I could recommend him to the Paris Conservatory, where he would have the opportunity to teach and perform in the Golden Hall."

Elizabeth: “He seems more interested in pop music!”

Sophie: “Yes now!”

Fili came out and said to Elizabeth, "I'm sorry, contestant Wang Qian is on the stage, I can't disturb him, you can wait a moment."

Elizabeth smiled and said, "Okay, thank you Mr. Feeley."

Fili nodded and turned and walked in.

At this time! Wang Qian came out directly with a few people.

Sophie and Elizabeth were both stunned, then they walked over together.

Sophie stepped forward and shook hands with Wang Qian: "Hello, Mr. Wang Qian, nice to see you again."

Wang Qian said politely: "Hello!"

Elizabeth also stepped forward and shook hands with Wang Qian: "Hello, I'm Elizabeth, from London."

Wang Qian also smiled and responded: "Hello, I am Wang Qian, from Shanghai."

Elizabeth was obviously much more talkative than Sophie. She asked in a familiar manner, "How do you feel about being on stage? I can't wait to see your performance."

Wang Qian replied: "That's great. I'm looking forward to my performance. What about you? Are you ready?"

Elizabeth nodded. "Of course, I'm ready. What about you? Will you still insist on singing your own rock songs in this world competition? Did you know that your two English rock songs are also very popular in the UK? Many people like to listen to them very much."

Wang Qian: "Thank you! I will stick to the path I have chosen. Rock and originality are the path I took to Los Angeles this time."

Elizabeth: "Is it the same for tomorrow's opening performance? The opening performance will not be counted in the total score, it is just a performance. I chose to adapt a classic old song, so that I will not consume my own work library. I suggest that you save the good works for the later competitions."

Wang Qian: "Thank you, but I think every one of my works is very good, so there is no need to do this. So, will you also sing your own original songs in the competition? I have heard your previous songs, they are amazing. It is hard to imagine that you were buried for ten years before."

Elizabeth's experience is quite legendary. She debuted in the UK as an independent singer at the age of about 20, but had not become popular for ten years. This time, she was invited to participate in the Voice of China competition, and she became famous all over the world overnight. She is almost the most popular female singer in the UK now, and several original songs she sang on the Voice of China stage were very popular.

Sophie looked at Wang Qian with a strange look in her eyes.

This is too confident.

Elizabeth dodged Wang Qian's question and exclaimed, "Wow, I really want to watch your performance right now."

Wang Qian: "Haha, then you need to wait, aren't you going in?"

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

Elizabeth nodded: "Of course, I'll go in first!"

Sophie then spoke up: "Did you know that Taylor will be performing on stage tomorrow night?"

Wang Qian obviously didn’t know the news: “I don’t know!”

Sophie smiled: "The program team invited her to play a piano piece at tomorrow's opening performance. She agreed and chose your piece, A Girl's Prayer."

Wang Qian: "She didn't tell me the news. She just said she would arrive in the afternoon and watch my performance tomorrow."

Sophie: "Maybe she wants to give you a surprise."

Wang Qian: "Maybe. I'll take my leave now. Goodbye."

Although Sophie looked very pleasing to the eye, Wang Qian didn't want to chat with her here all the time, so he immediately said goodbye.

Sophie glanced at Qin Xuerong apologetically: "This is Xuerong, right? She's so beautiful. I'm sorry to bother you. Goodbye!"

Qin Xuerong roughly understood what Sophie meant, and said with a smile: "Thank you, goodbye!"

Wang Qian turned around and led everyone out. When passing by Miyuki Nakamori, he smiled and nodded in greeting.

Jiang Yu said to Qin Xuerong with envy: "Xuerong, you have been spread to the world by the song "To Xuerong". Many people in North America who practice this song know you!"

Murong Yue also said: "Several of my classmates at Berkeley asked me who Xue Rong was, and I said she was a great beauty!"

Qin Xuerong enjoyed this feeling very much. She held Wang Qian's hand tightly, feeling a sense of happiness in her heart. She smiled shyly and said, "I didn't expect that either!"

Wang Qian smiled but said nothing.

He knew that if this song could become popular all over the world like in his previous life, and remain popular after a hundred years, then Qin Xuerong would truly be remembered in history!

Just like many people knew the name Alice in the previous life, this name is not only a cartoon character, but also the name of a piano.

Miyuki Nakamori watched Wang Qian leave, and only looked away when Wang Qian disappeared.

Ito Masahide said softly: "He is very attractive, isn't he?"

Miyuki Nakamori said truthfully: "Yes, Ito-senpai, have you ever seen someone like him?"

Ito Masahide thought for a moment, then shook his head: "I have lived for fifty years, and I have never seen anyone as talented as him. I also like Chinese culture, so I have read all of his literary works, which are really incredible. In the cultural field of our island country, many people like his works."

Miyuki Nakamori nodded, then lowered her head and continued to look at the notebook in her hand, on which were written lines of music scores and English words.

She is currently composing English songs.

Ito Masahide: "In fact, your talent is already very impressive. In the history of pop music in our island country, there are not many people who can compare with you."

Miyuki Nakamori smiled but still didn't say anything. She just looked at the notebook in her hand and focused on her own creation.

She had only been fascinated by him before, but after meeting him, she found that Wang Qian was very attractive.

There is no doubt about it.

But.

The more this is the case, the more she wants to prove herself in front of Wang Qian and on the stage.

She is not a flower maniac, she wants to make herself excellent enough to attract Wang Qian! ...

at this time.

On North American social platforms, news about the first International Voice of China is everywhere. It is the hottest topic at the moment and the entertainment news that everyone cares about the most.

Therefore, various media outlets are scrambling to report relevant information, waiting at the hotels where the contestants are staying and at the entrances of performance venues to capture the news that everyone wants to see most.

but……

The information broadcast by official television stations is undoubtedly the most authoritative and attracts the most attention.

The video of Diana's interview with Wang Qian in the morning was broadcast by the official TV station.

Wang Qian's confident and outspoken answer was completely different from everyone's impression of the Chinese character, and caused a lot of controversy.

A music media outlet directly said publicly on the social platform: "This Chinese contestant may have forgotten his own cultural traditions. Of course, it is also possible that he knew that he could only perform twice before returning to China, so he wanted to say something big to attract our attention. I want to say that he succeeded in attracting my attention!"

"But I also want to tell him to book a flight back to China as soon as possible. If he still has the nerve to go back after being eliminated in the first game."

The media's words were very sharp and sarcastic.

However, it was liked and forwarded by many self-media.

Apparently, a lot of people like what this media outlet says.

Mocking and ridiculing Asians has become a traditional skill of the North American media.

When you don't know what news to dig up! This is the right thing to do.

Another media outlet said: "This Chinese contestant may not be awake yet. His musical talent is indeed amazing. I am still listening to the two English rock songs he sang. However, this is North America, he should not be so arrogant. His opponents are Adam, Sophie, and Elizabeth. He is not qualified to win the championship."

The media's statement was also widely forwarded.

There are also people who support Wang Qian.

Green, the runner-up of The Voice of China who was eliminated by Adam, publicly said on his Facebook account: "Adam's singing talent is indeed world-class, but Wang Qian is not much weaker. His singing skills and cross-dressing voice-changing singing in two English rock songs amazed me. And his musical talent is ten blocks ahead of Adam! I support Wang Qian to win the championship and eliminate Adam."

Green has always been an open supporter of Wang Qian.

In particular, after she was eliminated by Adam, she repeatedly belittled Adam in public, saying that Adam was not as good as Wang Qian from China.

Such remarks made Green disliked by many of Adam's fans and criticized by many media, which led to Green being restricted and suppressed in the past week.

After all, Adam is not just an individual now, but represents huge interests in many popular music fields in North America. To go against Adam is to go against this interest group.

Therefore, Green's statement in support of Wang Qian was hardly noticed by many people and was not spread out, except by her own millions of fans.

Chinese audiences can also watch this interview on the official Weibo account of China Voice.

Many of Wang Qian's fans openly support Wang Qian.

Many passers-by also supported Wang Qian.

Only a very small number of people cautiously suggested that Wang Qian should be more modest and low-key...

However, as the plans of several major companies were implemented, soon the entire Internet was filled with only voices supporting Wang Qian and believing that Wang Qian would win the championship.

…

Wang Qian returned to the hotel to rest for a while, then took Jiang Yu, Murong Yue, Zhao Wei, and He Fulin to a recording studio that Zhou Qinghua and Murong Yue had contacted.

On the stage of the show, they just went there to familiarize themselves with the venue and practice their movements and positions, it was impossible for them to actually sing live there.

So, they could only come to the recording studio to practice the songs.

We practiced for the whole afternoon before returning to the hotel.

And back to the hotel.

Wang Qian received a call from Taylor: "My mentor and I have arrived in Los Angeles. My mentor went to a friend's house. I went back to my own home. I'm here to find you now. Do you have time to have dinner with me tonight?"

Wang Qian looked at Qin Xuerong and said with a smile, "Of course I have time. It's dinner time. But do you mind if I bring Xuerong with me?"

Taylor: “Mind!”

Wang Qian: “Then I’m sorry.”

Taylor: "I'm kidding, of course I don't mind. I'll be at your hotel soon, you can come down now."

Already here? Wang Qian was slightly surprised, and then called Qin Xuerong, who had no objection to this. She still remembered Taylor, so she agreed to go have dinner together.

He greeted Zhou Qinghua, Jiang Yu and others.

Wang Qian took Qin Xuerong downstairs, avoiding the many media reporters and paparazzi at the door, and saw Taylor with purple hair and sunglasses waving at a black Bentley not far away.

Wang Qian ran over with Qin Xuerong.

There were many sounds of camera shutters flashing around, and these paparazzi had obviously captured the scene of Wang Qian coming out.

Watching Wang Qian and Qin Xuerong get into the Bentley and drive away quickly, the paparazzi around were very excited and sent the photos back to the headquarters so that they could be seen on the Internet immediately.

Timeliness is the first life of entertainment news!

Bentley quickly left the hotel.
