Now all eyes are on the last judge.
He was also the oldest of the ten judges, with gray hair and a few bald spots.
His first impression on Liang Liang was that he was unreliable.
He is Zheng Guanglan, the president of the Haikou Musicians Association.
"These two singers are the best pair of singers since the start of the Tengda Junior High School Cup Popular Song Grand Prix. To be honest, with their level, it would be a loss for this competition if either of them were eliminated. They met too early."
Zheng Guanglan picked up her water glass and took a sip.
He's getting on in years; he needs to drink water after saying just a few words.
"However, this competition uses a one-on-one elimination system. No matter how good two people are, only one can stay. Even if it's cruel, I have to make a choice. I don't quite agree with what Chairman Yu said earlier. Being green is not the same as being innocent. These are two concepts and cannot be confused."
Liang Liang's heart skipped a beat.
There's going to be a problem.
Hey old man with white hair and a bald head, you'd better make sure you're saying the right thing, because your words could affect someone's fate.
“I still think a singer needs to be mature and steady. This singer named Chen Yu is quite good. She has a stable stage presence and performs gracefully. Although that young girl has great potential and is a rough gem, I think she still needs to be tempered.”
It’s over!
Liang felt utterly dejected.
All that effort for nothing.
Isn't what I'm saying clear enough?
Didn't you see that singer named Chen Yu was already smug?
Xiao Yu, Han Chui, and the others were also filled with deep disappointment; everyone understood the meaning behind the white-haired old man's words.
Liang Liang's original idea was that Zhang Liyuan could gain some stage experience by participating in this competition, and if she could enter the top eight, she could also get a prize of several hundred or several thousand yuan.
This was a help to her personally and to her impoverished family.
If we can make it into the top three, that would be even better. Not only would we win a grand prize of over ten thousand, but we would also have some capital to rely on.
When I go out and brag, I say that I've won tens of thousands of yuan in prize money. How can those singers who only won a few hundred yuan in the CCTV Young Singers Competition compare to me?
Don't underestimate her. With that, she's already in the Pacific Ocean, and even famous singers wouldn't dare to step on her.
Then signing with Pacific Audio-Visual Company will make things go more smoothly, allowing me to gradually make my way into the music scene.
But now, his dream of winning a prize through this competition may be shattered, and he can only go directly to Pacific Audio-Visual Company.
Is this old scoundrel having an affair with this singer named Chen Yu? The way Chen Yu looks at this old scoundrel is so ambiguous.
That must be it.
You old rogue!
"I have already shared my impressions of both singers, and now I need to make my decision."
The old thief was also breathing heavily, and he stopped here.
What's wrong with this? Are you guys just pulling the gate?
Since everyone already guessed the outcome, what's the point of you pulling this stunt?
Can't they have any shame?
"My final choice is Jang Ri-won!"
With a thud, Liang Liang dropped a bottle of mineral water from his hand to the ground. His eyes stared wide-eyed for a full minute without blinking; if his eyeballs hadn't been in their sockets, they would have almost popped out.
Holy crap! You old scoundrel! You shameless bastard, did God send you here to mess with us?
He came here to pull a fast one.
Is it normal for you to talk like that, taking huge breaths?
Luckily we're men. If we were women, who would be responsible if the baby in our belly got scared and miscarried?
"What are you waiting for? Clap your hands!"
Xiao Yu poked Liang Liang with a pestle.
This idiot seems to have gone mad.
Liang Liang then realized what was happening and clapped enthusiastically.
It was only at this moment that he realized the old thief... oh no, I mean the old man. This old man was honest and upright, and he looked like a good person.
Who just called him an old thief and a hooligan? Stand up right now! I'll break your little legs if I don't represent the people!
At this moment, Liang Liang wished he could sprout wings and fly to the judges' stage to kiss the white-haired old man's face.
Zhang Liyuan on stage had no idea how she got off the stage; she somehow ended up backstage.
Happiness came so suddenly that when she got backstage, she still didn't understand what had happened.
"Welcome to our little beauty for successfully advancing!" Han Chui led the way in congratulating Zhang Liyuan, making her face as red as a cloth.
Zhang Liyuan's match is over, and it's almost 10 o'clock. There's no point in staying here any longer.
Liang Liang and the others can only go on stage tomorrow morning, so staying here any longer is a waste of time.
Let's get out of here! We have to go outside and celebrate.
After leaving backstage, the entire Blue Shark band, along with Zhang Liyuan, prepared to go out to a restaurant to celebrate.
Celebrating Zhang Liyuan's advancement to the top 64.
But as soon as they stepped out from backstage, they saw a young man blocking their way.
"You guys are the Blue Shark Band?"
Han Chui swung his arm and charged forward, standing in front of the other person, seemingly trying to outdo him in height.
"That's right, we are the Blue Shark Band. We're going to have lunch now and we're not signing autographs for anyone!"
He assumed the other person was there to ask for an autograph.
"Who are you to give people autographs? Are you number 58?"
"Yeah! Dude, didn't you want an autograph? What brings you here?"
"I am number fifty-seven, your opponent in the PK battle."
So they were rivals.
He looked to be around twenty-two or twenty-three years old last year, with a haughty air about him.
What is he here for?
"Haven't you heard of my name, Liu Shijiu? If I were drawn by you, I would automatically disappear, so I could save some effort."
Holy crap! I've run into a self-important charlatan.
Liang Liang is exhausted. Is this some kind of warning shot?
And who is this Liu Shijiu?
"Are you Liu Shijiu, the one who sang nineteen songs in one go at East Lake?"
Liang Liang didn't know him, but Luo Lin did. He had been in Hainan for two or three years and knew some of the singers and bands in the more famous nightclubs in Haikou.
"That's right, it's me! If you withdraw now, I'll treat you to lunch."
This guy must have a heart bigger than a bowl. He really thinks he's a big shot. How thick-skinned does he have to be to say something like that!
It's time to make a statement.
"Sorry! Since we've signed up, there's no reason for us to back down without competing. Even if you're Liu Shijiu, or even Liu Wushi, we'll still go up on stage and compete."
"You don't know what's good for you! I'll make you suffer a terrible defeat later."
Liang Liang gave a bitter laugh. It's true what they say, there are all sorts of birds in a big forest; there are even people advising others to quit.
Why don't you quit? It would save us some trouble.
