Chapter 381 380. One year, one album! Become the world's number one singer! (Subscribe)
The motorcade set out from the hotel and headed to the show studio. More than a dozen media vehicles followed along the way, filming from all angles, front, back, left, and right, and updating the content on major social media platforms in real time.
The Voice of China World Competition has entered its second round. Its popularity in North America far exceeds the annual Oscars and Grammy Awards, and even the Super Bowl, which is known as the North American Spring Festival Gala.
Right now, people in North America, Europe and America, as well as the Chinese island nation in Asia, South Korea, India and other countries are almost all paying attention to this event. The ratings are very high, absolutely ranking first in the same time period. No other program can compete with it.
Even though the Indian contestant has been eliminated and South Korea is not the copyright holder and no contestants have joined, people in their country are still paying close attention to this program!
Those in other regions who have the conditions to watch it are also paying attention to this most watched talent show variety show in history.
so.
The entire process of the five contestants, Wang Qian, Sophie, Elizabeth, Adam, and Miyuki Nakamori, was seen by audiences from all over the world.
There were also many passers-by who rushed to the scene after hearing the news. They followed the car, took out their mobile phones to take pictures along the way, and some people even started a real-time live broadcast. Many people watched it on the Internet, and it was very popular.
On social platforms in various countries, topics about the live broadcast of the Voice of China draw have ranked high, with hundreds of millions of people participating in the discussion.
When the car arrived at the TV station's base in Los Angeles, there was already a dense crowd of people. Many media outlets had been waiting here for a long time, as well as various internet celebrities and their own media, fans of several contestants, and people who came just to join in the fun.
After all, everyone knows that there are a lot of idle people in North America who like to join in the fun, especially in Los Angeles, which is known as the world's entertainment mecca.
When Wang Qian got off the car, dozens of security guards who had been prepared by the program team quickly surrounded him and Qin Xuerong, fearing that the accident at the hotel would happen again. If the media reporters broke through the protection and detained Wang Qian, it would be troublesome and a lot of time and energy would be wasted.
Now Wang Qian is the traffic code of the global media and the Internet, and also the cash cow of The Voice of China World Competition.
Although The Voice of China World Competition also needs the media to hype up the popularity, the program team does not want the media to easily get the opportunity to get close to Wang Qian.
What you can't get is the best.
Only by maintaining a certain sense of mystery can the audience be more expectant and the media have more room for hype.
The surrounding media reporters have begun to make a commotion.
Wang Qian took Qin Xuerong and walked directly into the building under the protection of security guards, leaving no time or opportunity for the media on the scene to act.
Many reporters could only regretfully take pictures from a distance and then quickly turn their attention to the next contestant.
It is Sophie who is unanimously regarded as a goddess or angel by countries all over the world!
As soon as Sophie appeared, she was protected by security guards and the media around her were taking pictures crazily.
Sophie did not stop, but walked over quickly with her long legs, trying to catch up with Wang Qian. As soon as she entered, she saw that Wang Qian and Qin Xuerong had left the security circle and were waiting for the elevator to go upstairs.
"Professor Wang, Xuerong..."
Sophie slowed down her pace, pretending to meet him by chance, stopped in front of the elevator, and greeted him with a smile. Her temperament and appearance were so attractive.
Qin Xuerong felt a little ashamed of herself. She smiled at Sophie, said nothing, and just held Wang Qian's hand tightly.
Wang Qian smiled at Sophie, his eyes showing a flash of concern, and asked softly, "I heard from the reporter that you went to the recording studio early this morning to get busy? You just finished the performance, why don't you take a rest?"
Sophie's smile grew even brighter as she replied, "I'm not satisfied with my results and want to work harder."
Wang Qian shrugged: "You are already very good."
Qin Xuerong also looked at Sophie with some admiration. This musical genius was younger than her, but had already been recognized by the whole world, yet she still worked so hard.
Sophie shook her head and said seriously, "No, it's not enough! You and Chris are both ahead of me."
Wang Qian smiled and declined to comment.
The elevator has arrived.
The three of them walked into the elevator together.
The elevator went to a studio on the third floor.
Zhou Qinghua and several members of the program team were here, as well as Diana, the program team's interview reporter who had rushed over, as well as the on-site host Jennifer, and several other copyright representatives.
Of course, there are also many TV station staff.
Wang Qian, Qin Xuerong and Sophie arrived.
Many people at the scene paused for a moment, and most of them looked at Wang Qian and Sophie in surprise and amazement.
He stared at Wang Qian in amazement, wanting to see what this Chinese man who constantly set incredible single sales records and defeated Christine head-on looked like.
Looking at Sophie in amazement.
Looking closely, everyone felt that Sophie was even more stunning and breathtakingly beautiful than she appeared on TV.
In fact, we are all in the entertainment industry and have seen all kinds of beauties. There are definitely those who are as beautiful as Sophie, but there is no one in the world who has such beauty, talent, and artistic temperament. There is only Sophie, who seems to have all the beauty in the world condensed in one person.
Because she knew she was going to meet Wang Qian, Sophie dressed up carefully. She wore a slim black dress and tied her hair up to reveal her slender, snow-white swan neck. Her artistic temperament made her look purer at first glance. Many people did not dare to get too close to her and could only watch from a distance.
Zhou Qinghua came over and pulled Wang Qian and Qin Xuerong away, and together with He Dongming and other members of the Chinese copyright production team, they chatted in a low voice about what to pay attention to during the live broadcast.
Sophie was pulled away by the French copyright holder, who also reminded her about the live broadcast, the draw, and the next competition and performance!
Wang Qian stepped forward and clapped his hands with He Dongming: "Are you used to this place?"
He Dongming chuckled and said, "Habit, my English has improved a lot."
He Dongming was recently assigned to work in the core level of the program group. He often deals with international copyright holders. His professional ability has increased dramatically and he can communicate normally in spoken English.
He knew that after this gilding experience, he would immediately become a hot commodity in the industry upon returning home.
And all this was brought to him by Wang Qian.
Although, Wang Qian never said a word for him.
However, no one in the entire program team, including the foreign copyright holders and the international operations team, dared to bully him. They even took good care of him and allowed him easy access to core operations.
Wang Qian smiled and said, "Sure, come back and join my company."
He Dongming said affirmatively: "Of course, if you need me, call me anytime, I will quit my job and come to you immediately."
Wang Qian acquired an old entertainment group in Beijing. This news is no longer new in the Chinese entertainment industry. Basically everyone in the industry knows about it, and many people are watching his next move.
Zhou Qinghua also smiled and said, "Professor Wang, if you have nowhere to go in the future, please leave a place for me."
Wang Qian smiled and shook his head: "I may not be able to accommodate a great god like Director Zhou here, and the great god would not look down on my small temple."
Zhou Qinghua might have been just a variety show director in the Chinese entertainment industry before. He was not at the top level in the entertainment industry, but was upper-middle. But now with the popularity of The Voice of China World Championship, he has directly become the top of the food chain in the Chinese entertainment industry.
And because he holds shares in the Voice of China production company and owns the copyright of The Voice of China, although his shares are not large, his wealth has expanded rapidly and he has become one of the big capitalists in the circle.
Therefore, Zhou Qinghua was just joking. Even if he can't make it in the Voice of China crew in the future, his own wealth is enough to support him to work on his own, and there is no way he will join someone else's company.
Seeing that Wang Qian was very approachable and easy to talk to, the people from the program crew came over and chatted with him. They all looked very excited, as if they had met their idol.
Over there, Jennifer was chatting with the TV crew about the upcoming draw and hosting event, while looking at Wang Qian from time to time, with some resentment and heat, and reminded him: "Should we do a small interview with each contestant now?"
The program crew immediately said, "Of course, we can start now!"
Diana frowned and glared at Jennifer. This interview should have been hers.
Now it's been snatched away by Jennifer.
Jennifer is a bigger star than her, more popular, and has top-notch connections in the circle. She is a newbie and will definitely not be able to compete with her.
So! Diana could only join the camera crew and serve as Jennifer's assistant.
Jennifer was holding a microphone, wearing a grey OL professional suit, looking extremely neat and capable. She walked towards Wang Qian in front of the camera and said, "Dear audience, we are now going to conduct a small interview with the five contestants who participated in the draw. We first see Professor Wang Qian. Everyone follow me..."
Zhou Qinghua and other people from the program team quickly made way and gave the venue to Wang Qian.
Qin Xuerong also stood aside with Zhou Qinghua and others.
Wang Qian faced Jennifer and the camera calmly and waved at the camera: "Hi, everyone..."
Jennifer quickly came forward and stood beside Wang Qian. She asked in an interviewing manner, "Professor Wang Qian, you just set a super record of over 100 million sales in 15 hours, breaking the record of the fastest single sales of over 100 million that you set last week. Everyone says that your rock song is the most thoughtful and artistic rock. What do you want to say to everyone?"
These are similar questions that media reporters have asked.
Of course, this is a question that the audience is interested in, so everyone will ask these questions.
Wang Qian calmly replied: "I want to tell everyone, don't be too surprised."
Jennifer asked curiously, "Why?"
Wang Qian smiled: "Because, there will be more next week!"
Jennifer looked at Wang Qian with wide eyes and a smile, and asked, "Professor Wang Qian, you mean, you will continue to break the record next week, right?"
Wang Qian nodded seriously: "Yes!"
Jennifer: "That's incredible. You beat Kristen head-on in sales this time. Do you think you've surpassed Kristen?"
This is also an issue that many people are concerned about.
Kristen's popularity and strength are unquestionable. She had no excuse for losing to Wang Qian this time. Many people are hyping this topic.
Many people have suggested that Wang Qian has surpassed Kristen and is the new number one in the world music scene.
However, this slogan obviously will not gain much support.
The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!
Kristen still has a lot of loyal fans.
Wang Qian shook his head: "No, I haven't released an album, I haven't won the global annual sales champion, and I haven't won a Grammy. I'm far from being comparable to Kristen. Maybe next year..."
Jennifer: "You mean, you're going to take a year to surpass Chris?"
Wang Qian thought about it and said, "Yes, I think it's almost enough! Because it's just enough to release an album..."
Everyone at the scene looked at Wang Qian in surprise, including Elizabeth and Adam who had just entered, and Miyuki Nakamori.
Although, Wang Qian defeated Christine head-on in sales this time.
However, they really don't think that Wang Qian has surpassed Kristen in all aspects.
After all, Wang Qian is a newcomer who just debuted.
Kristen has been the most popular singer in the world for many years, and this is achieved through her annual best-selling albums and Grammy Awards! To really beat Kristen, it is not enough to just exceed the sales of a song in a single week.
At least the album sales in the same period must exceed that of the other party, and the other party must be eliminated in the same period of awards, to be considered a true surpass!
But Wang Qian said that one year is enough!
That is to say.
Wang Qian completely surpassed Kristen with just one album.
Jennifer, Diana, Sophie and others were surprised but also looked forward to it.
I think it's not impossible! As long as Wang Qian's new album can maintain the quality of these singles, then surpassing Kristen may only take one album.
Jennifer said expectantly, "Then your album will be popular all over the world. I am really looking forward to the day when your album is released. I will definitely buy a copy."
Wang Qian: “Thank you!”
Jennifer really wanted to continue the interview and interaction with Wang Qian, but the director said it was over and it was time for the next contestant.
Jennifer could only come to Sophie and say, "Sophie, your results this time are much better than before. Are you satisfied with this?"
Sophie shook her head and answered seriously with a pretty face: "Not satisfied, I will continue to improve next week!"
Jennifer: "Why are you not satisfied? Do you want to defeat Wang Qian?"
Sophie nodded: “Yes, I want to defeat Kristen and Wang Qian!”
Jennifer: "Who is the opponent you most want to face?"
Sophie thought for a moment and said seriously, "Adam!"
Adam, who was standing not far away and watching the live interview, instantly showed a look of surprise on his face. He stared at Sophie with wide eyes, full of joy and happiness.
Unexpectedly, the goddess still has her own heart.
but……
Jennifer continued, "Why Adam?"
Sophie said seriously, "I must enter the finals, but I am no match for Professor Wang Qian, so I don't want to become his opponent, because then I will be eliminated by him and cannot enter the finals. Isa, Miyuki and I are all good friends, and I don't want to eliminate them. If I eliminate Adam, I won't have any burden and can still enter the finals."
“So, I hope to draw Adam as my opponent, and then successfully eliminate him and enter the finals!”
When the people at the scene heard her answer, their eyes widened in surprise.
Sophie really said whatever she thought...
Adam, the person involved, went from being surprised just now to being extremely disappointed now...
So, I am the most insignificant person, the one with the least psychological burden in your elimination?
Adam opened his mouth, his face full of disappointment.
Elizabeth and Miyuki Nakamori smiled and waved to Sophie, happy to maintain a friendly relationship with her.
Jennifer asked again: "Are you confident that you can eliminate Adam?"
Sophie asked calmly, "Why not? I think he is the weakest one and I can easily eliminate him."
Adam's body froze, and he felt like his heart was about to stop beating...
The camera happened to focus on Adam for a few seconds, clearly capturing Adam's distraught and traumatized appearance, and transmitted it to the whole world.
Jennifer also finished the interview with Sophie and spoke a few words to Elizabeth. Elizabeth was very mature in front of the camera, just like her work style. She spoke in a very proper manner, did not offend anyone, and did not hype the topic.
When it was Adam's turn, Adam was hit by Sophie's words just now, so he spoke absent-mindedly. Jennifer finished in a hurry, and it was Miyuki Nakamori's turn.
Miyuki Nakamori was dressed simply today, in just a T-shirt, jeans, and a fresh and casual ponytail. She waved at the camera, appearing very polite and decent, and she also had the restrained, low-key and gentle style of Asian culture.
Jennifer: "Miyuki, four of your songs are in the top ten in sales at the same time this time. Do you feel proud?"
Miyuki Nakamori shook her head: "No, none of the four songs made it into the top five, so it's nothing to be proud of."
Jennifer: "Who is the opponent you most want to face?"
Miyuki Nakamori thought about it seriously: "Professor Wang Qian!"
Jennifer was surprised: “Why? Aren’t you afraid of being eliminated by Professor Wang Qian?”
Miyuki Nakamori shook her head: "I'm not afraid. Because no matter who it is, the professor will eliminate them. The result is already determined, so why should I be afraid? I just want to perform with the professor and then be eliminated by him. Then I will be eliminated by the champion and enjoy the stage performance with the strongest champion. This is the best ending."
All right!
If you think about it carefully, this girl from the island country is telling the truth, and her words clearly express her admiration for Wang Qian.
Jennifer smiled and said, "Then I wish you can get what you want and be selected by Professor Wang Qian!"
A round of live interviews ended.
Next comes the lottery phase.
The program crew was also very excited.
because……
The global audience for this live show has now exceeded one billion.
There are more than a billion people sitting in front of their TVs at this moment, looking forward to the official showdown on this weekend's show.
Who will Wang Qian draw first?
