Everyone in the Vic band knew that Tong Shuyue was making things up, but they didn't take it to heart. As long as they didn't admit it, no one could force the two of them together. However, they didn't expect... Wen Ming actually took it seriously and challenged them in front of everyone.
With Tong Shuyue's encouragement, the Vic band felt that this was not a competition, but a brand new challenge.
Wen Ming's appearance made Xiao and Peng Zhuo completely panic. They all asked Ji Zhong in a panic: "Brother, what should we do now?"
The contestants in the first round were already very strong, but I didn’t expect that the opponents I met in the second round would be even stronger than the first round.
Before Ji Zhong could respond to Xiao and Peng Zhuo's words, Xia Xingchen's voice came lazily, "Okay, see you on stage."
Wen Ming looked in the direction of the voice and saw a very cool girl. The black leather jacket showed off her curvy figure perfectly. She had short, neat and exquisite hair, but it did not affect her peak appearance at all.
The four boys next to her didn't dare to speak, only she dared to speak directly, which made Wen Ming a little interested in her.
As soon as Wen Ming left, Xiao, Peng Zhuo, and Yi Kai surrounded Xia Xingchen. Xia Xingchen knew what they were going to say, and before they could open their mouths, she calmed their hearts with one sentence: "No matter how difficult the road ahead is, remember to give it your all!"
Tong Shuyue inadvertently walked to Xia Xingkong and made an OK gesture to her.
Now everything is ready, only the east wind is missing...
In the second round, Vic Band and Wen Ming were the last group to compete.
Vic Band had a wonderful performance in the last round, and the audience is bound to be looking forward to their next performance. In addition, their opponent in the second round is the somewhat famous Wen Ming. The confrontation between the two groups may create some sparks and raise the audience's expectations, so... they were placed in the last group to be the finale.
This time, the Vic band sang first. They prepared a slow song that was very close to life. Not only was the tune gripping, but the lyrics were also very touching. Coupled with Yoshihide's slowly and moving voice, it was so sad to hear and shed tears to see.
When the song ended, the audience felt the same way. Some wiped their tears with the backs of their hands, and some wiped their tears with tissues. Mu Jin was also infected and took the lead in applauding.
The song sung by Wen Ming this time is his own original song, which is the most popular song on Doudou short video recently. In order to stand out, he added a lot of techniques when singing this time, making the song much better than the one in Doudou short video.
When the song was finished, the audience immediately burst into thunderous applause, which lasted for a full minute.
It's like it was rehearsed in advance!
Hearing the audience's warm applause and Wen Ming's enchanting singing, the Vic band panicked, only Xia Xingchen remained as steady as ever.
"It's over, we're definitely going to lose this time." Peng Zhuo muttered softly.
Xiao also agreed: "Yes, Wen Ming sings so beautifully, much better than us..."
Although what Xiao and Pengzhuo said was true, Yikai still wanted to make a final effort, "Don't underestimate yourself yet, the judges haven't scored yet."
"Just because you think it sounds good doesn't mean it will get high scores." Xia Xingchen sat on a chair, crossed his legs, and said something with a hidden meaning.
People who don’t understand music may find it nice to listen to, but for professional singers, Wen Ming’s performance is a bit too showy and gaudy. It may look nice at first, but in the end, it will only make people feel dizzy and boring.
As soon as Xia Xingchen finished speaking, a staff member came over and told them to go on stage immediately, where the judges would evaluate and score their performance.
Seeing them slowly coming onto the stage, Tong Shuyue, who had been watching them from the side, said to Xia Xingkong confidently, "Sister Xia, just watch for a while."
Xia Xingkong walked forward several steps, and from this position she could just see Xia Xingchen on the stage. Her eyes were fixed on Xia Xingchen.
Five minutes later, the first four judges had finished their evaluations, and only Mu Jin was left.
The first three judges gave Vic Band high scores of 10, 8 and 7 respectively, because they all felt that Wen Ming added too much technique, and if he added a little less, it would be just right.
There was only one judge who only thought that Wen Ming's song was nice. It didn't matter whether he added any techniques or not, as long as the song was nice.
Unsurprisingly, Mu Jin gave Vic Band full marks, so Vic Band defeated Wen Ming with a score of 35 points.
Wen Ming was very dissatisfied. Not to mention that Vic was just an unknown small band, even in this competition, their performance was not as good as his. Why did these judges give Vic's band full marks?
He only scored 10 points.
"I know everyone has different perspectives on music. If it's 5 or 10 points less, I can accept it. But this time there's a 25-point gap. To be honest, I can't accept it..." Wen Ming was a little excited. "If you don't know, you might think they got in through the backdoor!"
Wen Ming has always been quite conceited. If he lost to a singer who was better than him, he might be convinced, but... he really couldn't accept losing to such a mediocre little band.
After saying this, Wen Ming let out the anger that had been pent up in his heart.
As soon as Wen Ming raised his questioning voice, the audience went into an uproar. Seeing this, several judges also started whispering to each other.
Mu Jin glanced at Xia Xingchen and saw that she looked calm and composed. She felt a little anxious for her. Why didn't the boss just explain?!
The scene suddenly became a bit chaotic...
At this moment, Mu Jin slammed the table, stared at Wen Ming, and said, "Are you questioning the judgment of us professional singers?"
Wen Ming felt wronged and said unconvincedly: "I dare not, I just think it's unfair."
Mu Jin pressed on, "Then what do you think is fair? Do you think it's fair to let you advance directly just because you sing well?"
Wen Ming: "I didn't say that."
Mu Jin threw away the scoreboard in her hand and stood up. "I think that's what you mean."
Mu Jin's action made Wen Ming feel even more aggrieved.
After all, Mu Jin is a professional singer, and cannot be compared with a grassroots singer like Wen Ming who has a little fame. Since Mu Jin rejected him so much, he had no choice but to endure it, unless... he withdrew from the competition.
There might have been fans of Wen Ming in the audience. Seeing their favorite star being treated so unfairly, some people spoke up for Wen Ming: "Since this music program is broadcast for us, the audience, don't we have a say?"
Then, several audience members chimed in: "Yes! Yes!"
So, the audience member continued, "I like Wen Ming. I think Wen Ming's songs are more emotional than those sung by the Vic band. Just like you, Mu Jin, no matter how famous you are, I still won't be your fan..."
The audience continued to echo: "We also like Wen Ming's songs, we want to vote for Wen Ming too!"
