Chapter 399 398. Adam is hit hard! How many votes can Wang Qian get? (Subscribe)
As soon as Adam came on stage, he felt that the mood of the audience was not right!
Jennifer greeted him casually and seemed to pay no attention to him at all.
Almost none of the ten judges looked at him, as if they didn't see him coming on stage.
When the more than 20,000 audience members looked at him, there was no emotion.
The applause was sparse. Although everyone applauded, it was all out of courtesy and without much enthusiasm...
Adam stood there with a heavy heart, but as he had an excellent talent for performing, he quickly adjusted his state and began to get into his performance state.
He knew that the audience and judges had not yet completely recovered from Wang Qian's performance, so the effectiveness of his performance would be greatly reduced.
And he had already lost to Sophie in the last game.
If he loses this second performance.
He simply couldn't bear to think about the consequences of being eliminated in the second round of the semi-finals.
He remembered what his agent Eric had just said: "If you can make it to the finals, you can save at least five years of hard work. If you are eliminated by Sophie in this game, you will have to work hard for at least five more years to reach a certain level. In this life, you may never encounter a stage like The Voice of China that has set off a frenzy around the world again. Missing any performance on this stage will be the biggest loss of your life."
No star or singer is willing to leave the extremely popular stage.
Why do those celebrities spend millions of dollars to buy tickets and sit in the front row to watch performances? In fact, what they want is the same as Adam now, just for high exposure and popularity.
Even those star singers have to pay such a high price to get into the front row and thus enter the sight of two or three billion people around the world.
But, in fact, they don't want the World Championship to end early, they also hope it can continue. Even if the ticket price for the next game increases a little, they can accept it. Even if they have no money, they will borrow money or sell assets at a low price and will not miss the live performance of the World Championship, especially not Wang Qian's performance.
As long as the current investments can increase their global reputation and popularity, then they will be worth it, and they can earn several times the return from other channels.
Popularity and popularity are everything in the entertainment industry.
Adam hopes to continue to the finals, so that he can continue to enjoy the super exposure and popularity of this stage regardless of whether he wins or loses.
By the end of the final world championship, he may only need one album to establish his status as a world pop king, becoming a king as soon as he debuts. In the entire history of European and American pop music, there are only a handful of people who have achieved such an achievement. If Adam can be among them, he will definitely become one of the most dazzling figures in the European and American music scene in the past decade.
But, look at the situation on the scene.
Adam knew that it might be a bit difficult for him, so he had to make plans early in his mind.
The complicated thoughts quickly disappeared, and Adam adjusted his state again, putting everything into the performance.
Even if tonight is his last performance on this stage, he wants to show his best side here.
If this is his last chance to perform on this stage, he should show his best side to the world and let his performance tonight be remembered by history.
Even if he was eliminated by Sophie, he wanted to let everyone know that he was no worse than Sophie, and he also wanted to prove his talent and strength in front of the girl Sophie.
His state improved again, and Adam's speaking speed and passion increased significantly, finally bringing back the atmosphere on the scene.
With the support of Robert, O'Connor, Lillard and others, the scene began to become lively.
The ten judges then focused all their attention on Adam and began to listen carefully to his performance.
When Adam was fully into the performance.
Wang Qian is also fully committed at this moment.
The French song that Sophie sang before, her elegant voice completely aroused Wang Qian's interest.
Wang Qian's passionate performance on the stage just now and his wild guitar-smashing movements also set fire to Sophie's heart.
So, both of them were fully committed in the bathroom!
Adam's singing and the musical accompaniment outside did not reach their ears at all.
but……
When warm applause broke out outside.
The two of them quickly came to their senses and forced themselves to stop their actions.
Adam's performance is over, and it's Sophie's turn next.
Sophie was breathing rapidly, her face flushed. She stretched out her slender fingers and rubbed Wang Qian's cheek, and said in a short breath: "Put me down! I'll wait for you at the old place tonight."
After that, Sophie quickly tidied herself up and washed her face in the sink, removing all the light makeup on her face, revealing her pure face. There were a few freckles on her beautiful and pure cheeks, indicating that she was at the age of invincible youth. She tidied her clothes and asked with a smile, "Any questions?"
Wang Qian looked her up and down carefully, then smiled and shook his head: "No, she is very attractive, I can't bear to blink."
Sophie came over reluctantly and kissed Wang Qian on the cheek again. When she heard the judges' voices coming from outside, she said softly, "Then you should watch it a little longer tonight."
Wang Qian nodded: "Okay!"
Sophie pushed the door open and left contentedly, walking straight to the backstage entrance at the other end of the corridor. She stood there, looking at Jennifer and Adam on the stage, her heart still recalling what had just happened, with a sweet smile on her face.
She doesn't care about anything else.
The younger she is, the easier it is to put everything into something. Even if she burns herself out in the end, she will not regret it.
Rushing towards the fire regardless of everything!
Adam on the stage heard that the judges gave him a score of 90 in the end, and walked down with a worried look on his face, worried that his score of 90 was very high and he might be defeated by Sophie! He knew that he had performed with all his strength, but the judges were spoiled by Wang Qian and Sophie's performances, so they didn't give him a very high score.
Looking at Sophie standing backstage, with her bare face and no trace of makeup, she looked even more pure and stunning. Adam's heart beat faster and he walked over to her and said, "Hey, I tried my best just now. If you can get a higher score than me, then I will admit defeat!"
Adam knew that his journey in the World Championship was most likely to end, so he might as well show more open-mindedness and straightforwardness in front of Sophie, perhaps he could win the favor of the goddess.
However, Sophie just nodded slightly, but there was a hint of excitement in her eyes.
If Adam could be eliminated.
Then, Sophie knew that her chances of entering the finals were more than 80% to 90%.
Miyuki Nakamori is also a genius-level musician.
However, Sophie believes that she can definitely eliminate Miyuki Nakamori and eventually meet Wang Qian in the finals!
Although she and Miyuki Nakamori had a good relationship in private, she never took Miyuki Nakamori's threats seriously.
so……
Sophie said to Wang Qian in her heart - I'm here!
She looked at the stage with a determined gaze, and when she heard Jennifer calling her name, Sophie took firm steps forward.
Adam was stunned for a moment. He looked at Sophie who just nodded and completely ignored him. He was speechless and remained silent. He watched Sophie walk onto the stage and warm applause broke out in the audience.
Jennifer walked down and saw what happened by looking at Adam's expression. She shook her head and said, "Adam, don't waste your time."
Adam was also hit hard. Seeing Jennifer comforting him, he felt a little comforted. He looked at Jennifer and said hopefully, "Jenny, can we go out for a drink together tonight? I think I may need someone to comfort me tonight."
After being hit so many times in front of Sophie, and seeing Jenny in front of him, who was as beautiful as Sophie but had a slightly worse temperament, Adam immediately changed his target. He had already started thinking about going out for drinks with Jennifer in the evening, and then the two sides could hype up their couple. After all, they were all people in the entertainment industry, and this was a normal way of hype.
In his opinion, Sophie came from a French artistic aristocratic family, so it was understandable that she ignored him.
But, Jennifer, who has been in the entertainment industry for several years, should be impressed by him, right?
After all, Adam is also known for his good looks. He even dated two female judges and two female contestants on the North American Voice stage. It was always the other party who took the initiative and he only needed to nod to get it done. Only Green treated him coldly.
pity……
Jennifer's face immediately returned to expressionless calmness. She looked at Sophie on the stage and said calmly, "Sorry, I don't have time."
After saying that, Jennifer stopped paying attention to Adam and looked at Sophie.
Adam was struck hard...
I turned around and left here with an extremely disappointed mood. I felt that I, who was called a favored child in the North American Voice, was nothing at all in the world competition.
And on the stage.
Sophie stood on the stage, her whole body was as pure as a lotus in clear water, with no makeup on. In close-up shots, you could see a few freckles on her cheeks, which added to her youthfulness.
Her second song was no longer a French song, but a mainstream English song. The style also changed, returning to the alternative rock single Dreams that Wang Qian sang last time. The voice was more pleasant and light, and it sounded very good in the rock style background! Everyone in the audience was quickly attracted! Sophie's performance style, which was varied and even the singing style changed, was almost the same as Wang Qian's performance, and it could also bring a more surprising sense of live to all the audience.
Likewise, it would also allow the ten judges to recognize Sophie's strength and potential! Adam's performance just now was certainly above standard, but combined with his performance last week, he had performed three rap works of similar style in a row, which had already made the judges and the audience a little aesthetically fatigued by his performance! If this were to be told to others, many people might think that these people were crazy and that their requirements for the contestants' performances were too high, right?
Adam and Elizabeth's performances are definitely world-class, but they were overlooked here. There was no sense of expectation or novelty...
This is the stage standard that was unintentionally set for Wang Qian and Sophie.
And this standard is currently the highest standard in the entire history of music development.
It’s just that everyone is not very clear about this and it’s all subconscious behavior.
Wang Qian did not return to the lounge. He greeted everyone at the door, went to the dressing room to change into a casual suit, and then stood at the backstage entrance to watch Sophie's performance from close range.
Jennifer stood not far from Wang Qian and whispered, "There is one last performance."
Wang Qian nodded: "Well, I'm ready."
Jennifer: “Don’t forget what I said.”
The two didn't dare to get too close and spoke in a low voice because there were cameras around filming backstage footage.
Wang Qian remained silent in response.
Because he had promised Sophie, it was impossible for him to promise Jennifer at the same time.
Sophie's response just now was very excited, as if she wanted to eat him. In addition, Sophie was only eighteen or nineteen years old in physical strength, so Wang Qian felt that he could only deal with Sophie alone at night.
If there was another Jennifer, he probably wouldn’t be able to get back to the room.
But Jennifer said, "I'll wait for you!"
Then Jennifer stopped talking too.
Wang Qian smiled and watched Sophie's singing, which reminded him of the Cranberries in his memory. However, he personally thought Sophie's singing was better because her voice was more majestic and the rhythm of the song was more hard rock, not as soft as the Cranberries.
The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!
So, Sophie’s live stage performance is amazing.
Many audience members stood up and waved their arms to the rhythm of the music.
Then, after a while, more than 20,000 people in the audience stood up and interacted with Sophie.
Sophie stood in the center of the stage with a smile on her face. She didn't wave to anyone, but continued to focus on singing.
The celebrities in the front row were all supporting Sophie.
Yunna whispered, "I think Sophie has the potential to defeat Wang Qian."
The others nodded in agreement, having just acknowledged this point.
Yunna added, "After the performance, I will personally invite Sophie to our cocktail party. I don't think she will refuse."
This is the second time this proposal has come up.
O'Connor whispered, "She might refuse. Don't forget, she has publicly expressed her support for Wang Qian more than once, and even admitted that she is not as good as Wang Qian. She might be a fan of Wang Qian's music. At such a young age, she is a genius from a family of classical music, so she is most likely to be attracted by Wang Qian's music."
Robert and the others frowned when they heard this.
Because what O'Connor said is true.
The more you understand music, the more you can understand the incredibleness of Wang Qian, and the more you will be conquered by Wang Qian's talent and strength.
With so many musicians, singers, etc. present, who dares to say that their talent and ability are better than Sophie?
No one...
Robert still said: "No matter what, let's send her an invitation!"
Yunna nodded.
Several people followed the rhythm and waved their arms to support Sophie.
Christine, Ellie and others not far away were also waving their arms to support Sophie.
Ellie said with some admiration: "It's hard to imagine that Sophie and Wang Qian both appear on the same talent show stage at the same time! This world competition may become the greatest talent show stage in history. Their musical talents are enough to rank in the top two in history, Wang Qian first, Sophie second!"
Christine also said: "Sophie was not so dazzling at the beginning, but now she has shown more and more incredible musical talent and strength! She is the biggest surprise on this stage besides Professor Wang Qian."
Several other musicians around also nodded in agreement with what the two said.
Many professional musicians spend huge amounts of money to watch Wang Qian and Sophie’s performances live, because the two are constantly trying new musical styles, which can also bring them great inspiration.
The talent Sophie displayed was indeed historic.
The program crew backstage were all smiling at this moment.
Because Sophie can maintain stable viewership.
"Adam's performances can only maintain 1.5 to 1.6 billion viewers. The audience's standards have become higher. His performances have no novelty or changes, so it is difficult to attract people. Sophie's performances can bring surprises, so they can continue to attract audiences. Now the number of viewers has maintained at 2.2 billion, which is incredible."
"Wow, it looks like the final will probably be a showdown between two super geniuses, Wang Qian and Sophie. I can't even imagine how many people around the world will be watching."
"Our highest audience has now exceeded 3 billion. We have covered almost all the peaceful areas in the world. It is impossible to increase the audience significantly in the future. About 3.5 billion may be the limit, which is nearly half of the world's population!"
"Anyway, we have created the most incredible miracle in the history of television. Half of the world's population watches our show. Hahahaha..."
"We will all go down in history."
“We will get rich!”
“They brought all this.”
"Unfortunately, Wang Qian and Sophie only have one last show left, and the final carnival tonight is about to end."
"For next week's competition, can we still make some arrangements to allow Wang Qian to continue to perform?"
"Don't worry about next week's performance. We need to discuss it with Wang Qian first..."
"Yes, we must respect Wang Qian's opinion."
…
Sophie's performance is over.
The audience burst into warm applause again.
All the standing audience members raised their hands above their heads and clapped hard, as if this would make the applause more enthusiastic.
Wang Qian and Jennifer, who were standing backstage, also applauded.
Jennifer walked onto the stage while clapping, and gave Sophie a gentle hug. She then said excitedly, "What a surprising performance. Every performance of Sophie can also bring us surprises. Her singing is so beautiful, it's really the voice of an angel."
Sophie smiled and said, "Thank you..."
Jennifer: "Well, let's see what the judges think of Sophie's performance?"
As usual!
Cui Wenfeng was the first to speak, saying: "It was a very surprising rock performance, which had a lot of Sophie's personal style. Her voice was so beautiful that I couldn't understand it, but I was fascinated by it. I give it 9 points!"
Sophie bowed politely to Cui Wenfeng and said, "Thank you, Teacher Cui!"
She knew that Cui Wenfeng and Wang Qian had a good personal relationship, so she also respected Cui Wenfeng very much.
The French judge said excitedly: "Full marks, it must be full marks! Sophie is the most outstanding musical talent I have ever seen. She can easily master various styles of music and sing them perfectly. This is incredible! I give her full marks."
Sophie also expressed gratitude to her judges in France: "Thank you, teacher!"
There was a hint of regret in Ceci's eyes.
He knew that Adam was probably going to be eliminated. Sophie's performance was indeed a level higher than Adam's. This could not be denied or ignored. The whole world could see it.
At this time, he could only take care of himself. The most important thing was to maintain his professional and fair image in front of the whole world. He said seriously: "I have to say that Sophie is the biggest surprise on this stage besides Professor Wang Qian. Every performance brings new expectations and can meet our expectations. Many people say that Sophie is the voice of an angel. I think she deserves the title. I also give you full marks. I hope you will continue to surprise us in your next performance!"
Sophie looked at Ceci in surprise and said thank you.
Everyone looked at Ceci in surprise. They didn't expect Ceci to give Adam's opponent full marks.
However, Sophie's performance does deserve full marks.
Several judges gave their scores.
Sophie's final score was 94 points, with four full marks, and others also gave her high scores of nine points.
In terms of professional scores, he defeated Adam again! Next, it will depend on the audience vote.
Jennifer said excitedly, "Congratulations to Sophie for getting 94 professional points. The second round of performances has also ended. We are about to announce the number of audience votes for the four contestants in the second round. Let's take a look at the statistics of the notary public..."
Sophie bowed slightly to everyone, then turned and walked off the stage.
There was applause at the scene.
It is not only a farewell to Sophie, but also an anticipation for the results of the second round of audience voting.
There was no tie in the first round, and both Wang Qian and Su Fei defeated their opponents without any suspense.
Therefore, the second round may decide the winner and decide whether a player stays or leaves! This is something everyone is very concerned about.
At the same time, many people are still very concerned.
How many votes can Wang Qian get for his explosive performance on the stage just now? (End of this chapter)
