Chapter 406 405. The most intense war in the history of pop music. (Subscribe)
Just after the performance.
Robert, O'Connor, Lillard, Yuna and others had just left their seats when they were interviewed by reporters on the scene.
At the end of each world championship performance, the live broadcast will include post-match interviews with players or judges, or highlights of big-name celebrities and audience members at the scene. The ratings during this time can also be maintained at a good number. Many people will be interested in this, after all, they are all very popular big names.
Diana first stopped Robert and others.
Because the program team knows that the most talked-about topic right now is the sales competition between big-name singers in the European and American music scene such as Kristen and Robert and contestants of The Voice of China World Championship.
The entire pop music market has been activated as a result, and The Voice of China, as a music talent show, is also the biggest beneficiary.
Robert, O'Connor and others represent the stubborn old forces in the North American music scene and they absolutely resist new foreign forces like Wang Qian.
Diana was also dressed up carefully, and was no less attractive than Jennifer on the stage. She asked Robert generously, "Mr. Robert, was the performance tonight wonderful?"
Although Robert is old, he became famous at a young age and has always paid attention to his image. He dressed very gentlemanly tonight and looked like a charming middle-aged handsome man in front of the camera. He smiled and said, "To be honest, it's very exciting. Although these four contestants have just debuted and are still young, I believe they will have the opportunity to dominate the world pop music scene in the future. They are really excellent."
Robert commented on Wang Qian and others in the tone of a senior, in order to show his identity and status in the pop music scene.
Diana asked, "So, which contestant did you think had the best performance?"
Robert hesitated for a second. He didn't want to mention Wang Qian, but after looking at the live broadcast, he knew that this was for the whole world, and he didn't want to lose his reputation, so he said, "Objectively speaking, Wang Qian from China is the one with the best performance! The three pieces he performed tonight are all good works that will be remembered by everyone for the rest of their lives."
Diana continued, "It is said that you will release a new song with several contestants in the early hours of this evening. Are you confident that you can beat these new contestants?"
Uh! Robert was silent again, and the atmosphere became a little dull.
Who dares to say that they have the confidence to defeat them?
Robert looked at Diana and felt that this incredibly beautiful young reporter was looking for trouble. After two seconds of silence, he said, "It's unlikely. Several world championship players have already accumulated a lot of popularity and have been highly recognized in the market. In addition, there is the super bonus of the world championship audience. No matter who it is, it will be difficult to beat them. However, my goal is to enter the top ten of the weekly rankings!"
Going by this week’s trend, the competition will be even more intense next week, and entering the top ten of the weekly chart will be a huge success.
Diana smiled and said, "Okay, so who do you think will be the champion next week?"
Robert frowned! He really didn't want to answer these questions, as they all seemed to be directed at him.
These were all ways of trying to get him to praise Wang Qian and other contestants, but he didn't want to praise Wang Qian.
After another silence, Robert said calmly, "I don't know. The performances of the four contestants are all wonderful and they all have a chance to win. And Christine will also release two works at the same time and has a chance to win. Several other very talented singers will also release their carefully prepared works and they also have a chance to win."
"I also have a chance to win. My work will be released on time at 12 o'clock. This is a work I have carefully prepared. It will definitely satisfy everyone. Don't forget to support me when the time comes!"
All right!
It's as good as saying nothing. He is indeed a veteran. In the end, he even advertised himself and used the ratings of the World Championship to promote himself.
According to the ratings of tonight's World Championship, a ten-second advertisement during the peak period of Wang Qian's performance is worth hundreds of millions of dollars. Even now that the closing highlights have begun, the global audience is around 700 million to 800 million, and the advertising fee is quoted at two to three million dollars per second.
Robert's advertising campaign earned back the ticket sales and some money left over! It was a huge profit! Of course, this was also the reason why many celebrities spent a huge amount of money to buy tickets to attend the event.
Seeing that she couldn't get anything out of Robert, Diana turned her attention to Yunna: "Yunna, I used to like your singing very much. You will also release your own work next week. Are you confident that you can win the championship?"
If a song is released at an ordinary time, for a queen-level singer like Yunna, if she fails to win the championship in the first week of the release, it will be considered a small defeat. If she falls out of the top three, it will be a failure; if she falls out of the top ten, there will be a risk of her status falling.
But now, Yunna smiled and said, "I don't have the confidence to win the championship. My goal is to be in the top ten. If the top ten is not possible, I can accept the top fifteen. Before tonight, I was confident that I could enter the top three. But after watching the performances of the four contestants on the stage, I really felt the strength of the young newcomers. I don't have the confidence to beat any of them! So, it is enough for me to just ask for tenth place."
"I hope that my fans who have always supported me will continue to support me. This work was carefully produced by me and the producer over several months. It will definitely meet everyone's expectations. Please search for my new work on the platform and download it as soon as possible after 12 o'clock..."
Seizing the opportunity, Yunna started promoting her work directly.
She was speaking the truth!
She would be very satisfied to be ranked tenth.
The lowest, fifteenth place, she could accept.
Truly, the performances of these four players are so wonderful, and with the added heat of the world competition stage, they will surely have very good sales, and may even occupy all the top ten positions.
You know, each contestant has three works, so for four of them that means there are twelve works!
Without a doubt!
If other big-name singers want to enter the top ten, they will have to compete directly with these four contestants.
Not to mention, there are several other superstars who are as powerful as Yunna and are releasing songs together, and there are also more than a dozen first- and second-tier singers...
The fierce competition is indeed the most intense in the pop music scene in recent decades.
Yunna didn't even dare to hope for the top five, she would be satisfied with just the top ten, and top fifteen would be acceptable, which would not be considered a failure. The quality of her ranking was not inferior to that of previous weekly champions, and her income was far better than that of previous weekly champions.
Diana had a good impression of Yunna, so she didn't target Yunna and gave her a blessing: "Come on, I believe you can do it."
That's the end of the interviews with these people.
Then, Diana looked at Kristen and Ellie and said, "Chris, can we chat for a few minutes?"
Christine put on her coat and nodded generously to the camera: "Of course."
Diana asked directly, "Chris, you lost to Professor Wang Qian in sales this week, and the gap is not small. Are you releasing two works at a time next week to defeat Wang Qian and regain the weekly championship position?"
Christine smiled and said, “No, I just happened to have completed two pieces of work, so I released them together!”
Diana: "So do you want to defeat Professor Wang Qian?"
Christine said frankly: "Of course, who doesn't want to be number one?"
Diana: "Then do you have the confidence to do it?"
Christine also shook her head decisively: "No! Professor Wang Qian's performance tonight was perfect. It is the most exciting live performance I have ever seen since I was a child! Perhaps, no one will be able to surpass Professor Wang Qian tonight. Of course, Professor Wang Qian himself may be able to do so!"
"Professor Wang Qian and the audience have agreed to sell 400 million singles in a week. I believe he can do it. At the very least, I will download all his works. To be honest, I am looking forward to seeing Professor Wang Qian's live performance at the next show. It will definitely be exciting."
In front of the camera, facing audiences around the world, Kristen spoke her mind without reservation.
In Christine's opinion, Wang Qian's performance tonight is worthy of being recorded in the history of world pop music, and will be remembered by people for decades or even hundreds of years to come.
Just as many people today still like to watch the classic performances of many big-name singers from decades ago, in the future there will be many people who will continue to watch the performances of the four contestants tonight.
In comparison, Sophie, who is also considered a historical genius and whose performance is worthy of being recorded in history, is slightly inferior to Wang Qian.
Diana: "Chris, what about your own work? Do you think you'll have a chance to catch up with Professor Wang Qian next week?"
Christine smiled and said, "I hope so, I hope everyone can support me!"
Faced with this publicity opportunity, Kristen did not give up and called on her fans to support her.
Diana: "I'll support you!"
The camera turned to Ellie, and Diana asked: "Ellie, you made history this week. The sales of your single exceeded 100 million in the first week of its release. Many people hope that you can continue to create miracles next week. Do you have confidence?"
Ellie didn't have as many literary and artistic ideas as Kristen, and she said directly in front of the camera: "Of course I am confident. The single to be released next week is a work I have been preparing for a long time. I finally finished it last week. I will definitely give everyone a surprise! I hope everyone can support me as soon as possible! This week you gave me a surprise, and next week will be my reward to everyone..."
Ellie tries her best to attract people to download her works in order to achieve greater commercial success.
Diana asked, "So, have you ever thought about beating the four contestants? Many people think that you and Kristen have a chance to beat them!"
Ellie pretended to be shocked: "God, you think too highly of me. I also hope I can do it. However, Professor Wang Qian and Sophie's godly live performance, I think it will be difficult for me to surpass it in my lifetime. I just hope I don't fall out of the top ten..."
Ellie also spoke the truth. The competition will be more intense next week. She felt that perhaps the top ten works would be able to achieve sales of over 100 million in the first week. Although it was incredible, it was almost inevitable.
This week, nearly ten works have sales of over 100 million. Next week, the competition will be more intense and there will be more good works. The twelve works of the four contestants all have great potential. It is possible that more than ten works will have weekly sales of over 100 million!
It's enough for her to make it into the top ten.
Diana smiled and said, "Come on, Chris, Ellie!"
Christine and Ellie waved goodbye to Diana.
Diana also interacted with several big-name singers and film and television stars.
These people all look for opportunities to promote their own works, or help their good friends promote their works, and will not waste such opportunities.
Many other singers and celebrities were eagerly waiting for the opportunity to be on camera, but unfortunately, except for a few superstars and divas, no one else got the chance to be interviewed. Even the top-tier celebrities had to leave sadly. They were only given a group shot and showed their faces at the end, which was considered a response to them.
Then, Diana went backstage to interview the eliminated Adam and Elizabeth!
Both of them are now much calmer and can accept this result.
Adam: "This is not the end for me. I believe it is just the beginning. I will continue to work hard to improve and bring you better works."
…
Elizabeth: "Performing on the same stage with Professor Wang Qian has deeply touched me and given me a lot of new inspiration. When I release a new work next time, everyone will know a brand new me!"
…
The interviews have also been very popular on the Internet.
Those big stars are certainly big names, but the popularity of their interviews is still not as high as that of the four contestants performing on the stage.
The topic of Adam and Elizabeth being eliminated is very popular!
Although, many people thought this would be the result before the game.
However, now that it actually happened, it still caused widespread and heated discussion.
Because the regions they represent are both very representative, and they all have the desire to see their favorite players stand at the top of the world! But in the end, they were both eliminated and stopped in the semi-finals! Most of the rational audiences in North America support Adam, because Adam's progress during this period is visible to the naked eye, even ordinary audiences who don't understand music can see it.
"Adam has worked very hard and made great progress. It's just a pity that he met Sophie. We can't blame Adam."
"Adam is already one of the strongest geniuses in the world. It's a pity that he met Sophie, a historical genius. Failure is not that terrible!"
"I only realized how perfect Sophie is after watching the show. I used to support Adam, but tonight I voted for Sophie. She is simply suffocatingly perfect."
Even Green, the runner-up of The Voice of China, who had always looked down on Adam and repeatedly criticized Adam for having a loud voice, said publicly on Facebook: "I am amazed at Adam's progress. He worked really hard during the World Championship. This is the strength and performance that a North American champion should have! It's just a pity that he met the even stronger genius Sophie. In fact, his failure is almost inevitable. Neither Wang Qian nor Sophie can deal with him."
Green was also watching the performance, but she didn't have enough money, so she could only sit in the middle and back rows, so she didn't leave the show.
However, Green is also promoting a new song, and will release a new song tomorrow to announce his official debut.
In addition to many rational viewers, there are also a few more extreme viewers who mindlessly criticize Adam.
The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!
"Adam has brought shame upon us. He should commit suicide."
"Shame on you Adam, go to Mars."
"It's shameful to lose to a French woman."
"Adam is nothing but a loudmouth."
These extreme audiences did not cause much trouble. After all, neither the production team of The Voice of China nor the company behind Adam would allow such voices to emerge.
Similarly, Elizabeth was treated similarly to Adam. The voices supporting her were mainstream, and the minority of voices resisting her did not emerge.
However, in England, there are many voices supporting Elizabeth!
Elizabeth is the singer in England who has the greatest potential to become an international diva in the past decade, so the English media are very supportive of Elizabeth. Even when Elizabeth was eliminated by Wang Qian, they were supportive and comforting, hoping that Elizabeth could carry the banner of English pop music in the future.
"Losing to Wang Qian is inevitable. I just hope Yisha can continue to bring us music that touches our souls."
“Isha’s music is what we need.”
"Yisha lost to Wang Qian only because her music was not suitable for the atmosphere of the scene, not because she was not as good as Wang Qian."
"Isha will make her official debut in the future and prove herself in the world music scene."
…
In addition to the heated discussions about the two eliminated contestants, more people's focus was actually on Wang Qian, followed by Sophie! After all, the winner is the one who takes it all.
Wang Qian and Sophie are the two winners tonight.
In order to prepare for the next performance, the Voice of China officials will invest most of their resources in these two people.
What's more, the two's performance tonight was perfect, without any flaws, and no amount of praise would be too much.
Many media and critics, musicians, and passers-by all praised the duo's performance crazily.
"After watching Professor Wang Qian's three performances, I am still in shock! These are three wonderful performances that will go down in history! Each one can be said to be great..."
"These two rock shows made me, a person who didn't like rock before, fall in love with it! The last show even made me cry."
"Please upload Professor Wang Qian's three works quickly. I want to download them now. I can't wait to hear his singing..."
"Sophie's three performances were also historic, especially the French song named after herself. I was amazed. It was the best French song I have ever heard. I must listen to it!"
"Sophie's three performances, one rock and one country music, all proved that she, like Professor Wang Qian, can perfectly present any type of music. She is also a god-like music creator!"
"Oh my god, why is time passing so slowly? I want to listen to Wang Qian and Sophie's works right now, and then listen to Elizabeth and Adam's songs carefully."
"Don't cry, it's crazy."
"Someone like you, I burst into tears. I called my ex and she said she was married. My tears have not stopped until now. I hope she is happy and she won't forget me..."
“I will definitely support Professor Wang Qian and hope he can perform four pieces in his next performance!”
"Support Professor Wang for his four performances next week. I really want to see him perform ten shows non-stop..."
…
Wang Qian took Qin Xuerong and others out of the scene, left under the dense and unclear media lights, and returned to the hotel. It was already late.
The journey is not far, but it is very difficult along the way.
Media reporters, many internet celebrities, and fans filled the entire road back to the hotel. There were people everywhere, and slogans supporting Wang Qian could be seen everywhere. The vast majority of them were in English, and very few were in Chinese!
Wang Qian sat in the car and did not lie down to rest. Instead, he quietly looked outside at the people who supported him along the way.
These fans knew the route from the performance venue back to the hotel, and there were too many people at the entrance, so they stood on the road to support Wang Qian.
What a lovely group of people.
Through the window, Wang Qian smiled and waved to everyone.
There was a burst of cheers outside instantly.
Wang Qian vaguely heard someone calling out "Wang Qian" in a clumsy voice, and he could also hear some representative lyrics from his own songs. Some people were also singing the lyrics from the three songs he had sung tonight.
There were a lot of people gathered at the hotel entrance. Under the protection of dozens of security personnel, it took Wang Qian half an hour to enter the hotel through the short distance of 20 meters, leaving the crazy media outside.
Dozens of hotel security personnel were sweating profusely from exhaustion.
Wang Qian felt a little dizzy from being squeezed around, and was helped into the elevator by Qin Xuerong and Jiang Yu.
"Everyone, go back and rest. You're all tired today. Take a day off tomorrow and start rehearsing the day after tomorrow!"
Wang Qian rubbed his temples to relax his nerves and spoke to everyone.
No one had any objection and they all got off the elevator and left early. Finally, only Wang Qian and Qin Xuerong returned to their rooms.
As soon as he entered the room, Wang Qian slumped on the sofa and didn't want to move.
I'm really a bit tired.
Qin Xuerong hurriedly and familiarly poured Wang Qian hot water to drink, as well as a basin of water for soaking his feet.
While enjoying Qin Xuerong's service, Wang Qian opened his mobile phone to check the current public opinion and the real-time sales chart of Billboard, and then looked at the time!
There are only a few minutes left until twelve o'clock.
On the Internet, various big-name singers have entered a fever pitch in their promotion of their upcoming new works!
The company teams behind singers such as Kristen and Ally, Robert and others invested a lot of publicity resources almost regardless of the cost, and for a while, promotional news about their released works could be seen everywhere.
This may be the largest publicity battle in the history of the entire pop music industry, which has suppressed the current hot Hollywood movie publicity.
This is the first time in recent decades!
People are paying more attention to the pop music scene and ignoring the many popular blockbusters currently being released.
Wang Qian took a quick look and the time was up.
A refresh...
The list has changed!
Last week's ranking was finalized.
A new week of fighting has appeared.
All new works of the four contestants of The Voice of China immediately appeared on the world's largest pop music download platform!
at the same time!
New songs released by many big-name singers and new singers are also added to the database at this time!
fighting!
The battle became intense with bayonets drawing blood.
As the focus of the whole world, Wang Qian looked very calm. He did not immediately check the situation of the new song that had just been released, but first looked at the final sales data of the chart calculated last week.
