"There's still an hour before the show starts, so everyone doesn't need to be nervous."
"Just go on stage in the order we rehearsed, don't worry!"
"I'll cover for everyone!!"
"Also, don't worry, this is our home ground, which is definitely in our best interest!"
"Teleprompters will definitely be provided, everyone just need to pay attention to their positioning!"
Come on, everyone, let's cheer each other on!
Yuan Yi extended his right hand with his palm facing up, and upon seeing Yuan Yi's gesture, everyone pressed their hands down on top of him.
"Go China! Go China! Go China! China will win!"
Everyone cheered themselves on!
Yuan Yi told them to go and rest for a while.
He walked aside and said to Liu Qing, "Have you all set up the scenes I asked you to prepare?"
Liu Qing nodded vigorously, like a rattle-drum.
"Don't worry, Mr. Yuan Yi, this music hall is one of our association's properties, and we're sure you'll be satisfied!"
Time flies, and more than an hour has passed in the blink of an eye.
Everyone had already adjusted themselves to their peak condition at this point.
"Teacher Yuan Yi, fellow teachers, get ready to go on stage!"
After Liu Qing opened the door, he walked in and spoke softly to everyone.
"Okay, we're coming right away!"
After saying this, Yuan Yi looked at everyone.
All eyes turned to Yuan Yi, whether they were young, middle-aged, or elderly.
Their eyes all carried an indomitable spirit!
Tickets for this annual music exchange event will also be sold to the public.
The entire venue was now filled with spectators.
The majority of them were Chinese, with a small number of South Koreans and Japanese viewers.
In addition, there were numerous media outlets, including live broadcasts by Beijing TV.
It was five minutes to three o'clock, in the live broadcast studio of Beijing TV.
Numerous netizens have already gathered here!
Sigh! It's that time of year again for the annual music exchange! I just wonder how badly we'll lose this time!
[Our Chinese singers are all too cowardly! Even the top-tier, second-tier, and third-tier singers don't dare to perform! How can they possibly win by relying on fifth- or sixth-tier artists, or has-been singers and older generation performers!]
[Tch, they're just scared, afraid of losing face! It would be so embarrassing if they lost!]
[It's not just about being afraid of losing; they also know that if they lose, their ranking in the Asian popularity charts will drop!]
Ultimately, it comes down to their lack of ability. Don't be fooled by their rankings as first or second tier internationally; look at the Asian rankings, where would they even be?
There's nothing we can do; with the older generation of singers retiring, who among the newest entrants to the music scene has the talent?
There's no way around it; the generational gap is severe, or rather, the Chinese music scene is regressing drastically!
[The rules are different this year! Traditional musical instruments? Does China even have traditional musical instruments anymore?]
[This makes me so angry! Don't they know what's going on? Why did they agree to this request?]
[Exactly, are there any traditional Chinese musical instruments that can still be considered highbrow? They've long since faded into obscurity!]
It's truly a tragedy for China that we can't even find a few students who can play traditional Chinese musical instruments these days!
