Chapter 232 The only one who can defeat me is myself!!!

"It's too difficult!"

“It’s such a hard decision!!!”

"Cloud Palace Swift Sound" is in the heaven and "Victory" is on the earth, and the war between the two sides is about to break out.

The judges and the audience were all in a dilemma. Both songs could be said to be of very high quality and there was no flaw at all.

Even Lin Zhixing's fans no longer have the confidence they had just now, and it is really hard to say who will win.

On the gorgeous stage.

The members of the Tang Music Band felt unprecedentedly relaxed at this moment. They had just performed at their best, and the outcome would be left to fate.

The first row of the audience.

"He really deserves the title of master."

“This piece of music vividly depicts the image of the heavenly palace in my mind.”

"I believe that Master Heyi has been to the Heavenly Palace. He can write both the secular "Lichunyuan" and the elegant "Cloud Palace Swift Sound". He is truly a musical genius!"

Master Heyi did not disappoint his supporters; the composers were full of praise after listening to his songs.

They were all filled with anticipation at the thought of meeting this outstanding creator soon.

Judges' seat.

Li Yumin asked Huang Xiao beside him in a low voice, "Well, which of these two songs do you think is better?"

Huang Xiao stroked his chin and was silent for a long time. He said, "There is no first in literature and no second in martial arts. These two pieces are too good. I can't judge. What about you?"

“It’s really hard to judge.”

Li Yumin pursed his lips and said, "But in terms of personal taste, I prefer Master Heyi's "Cloud Palace Swift Sound". I think it is important to feel happy physically and mentally when listening to music."

The discussion in the audience was getting more intense, and Lin Zhixing couldn't wait to know the answer as soon as possible.

…

“Thank you Tang Music Group for the wonderful performance!”

The host Miaomiao walked back to the stage with a smile and introduced: "Now, please invite the four mentors to comment on the performance of the Tang Music Group tonight!"

The camera turned to the judges' seats, and the four judges once again raised the full score signs in unison, just like what they did after the performance of the Voice of the Soul Band just now.

"It's so beautiful! Thank you, Master Heyi. As a mortal, I am so lucky to be able to hear the music in the heavenly palace. I am deeply moved!"

It only took a few episodes for Wang Yuehua to go from having a prejudice against the Tang Music Orchestra at the beginning of the show to being impressed by it and becoming the "Master of Unity".

Xie Chunhong raised her thumbs and said, "I agree with Teacher Wang. I am honored to witness the birth of such an excellent piece of music tonight!"

Li Yumin clapped his hands and said with a slight smile: "The song is excellent, so there is no need to say too much! I want to say that I see the future of pure music booming! Our Chinese pure music will go abroad!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the audience burst into applause.

Huang Xiao pursed his lips. The other three judges had summarized what they wanted to say. After thinking for a moment, he said, "I share the same opinion as the other three judges. I hope that musicians can work harder to make Chinese music more prosperous."

"Okay, now please invite the three bands back to our stage."

After the host finished speaking, members of the Voice of the Soul Orchestra and the Vienna Orchestra waved and came to the center of the stage, standing on both sides of the Tang Music Orchestra.

"I declare that the voting for the final of "Summer of the Band" has officially begun. Forty public judges, please pick up the voting devices in your hands. If you support the Vienna Orchestra, please press 1. If you support the Sound of the Heart Orchestra, please press 2. If you support the Tang Music Band, please press 3!"

Center stage.

The atmosphere at the scene fell into silence. The band members listened to the ticking sound of the voting machine and felt a little nervous as they thought that the results of their hard work for nearly two months would soon be put to the final test.

However, no matter which band wins in the end, they will all gain a lot from this stage.

During the voting break, Lin Zhixing left the audience and quietly went to the backstage lounge, waiting to go on stage and feel the audience's cheers.

At this moment, the backstage staff were all going crazy.

"Has the Master of Unity arrived?"

"No!"

"He said on Weibo that he would come tonight! We also used this name to promote it. Now that he cancelled his appearance, we have basically fooled the audience!"

"What kind of person is this? Are all masters so unreliable?"

Lin Zhixing listened to the complaints of the staff around him and tried hard not to laugh.

In fact, I had already informed the director in advance about the "unification" matter, but I didn't expect that the director kept it so secret for the sake of the show's effect.

"How is it? You are about to show your divine power in public. Are you happy?"

Song Ge nudged Lin Zhixing, who was grinning from ear to ear, with his shoulder and asked with a slightly raised brow.

“Very happy!”

Lin Zhixing chuckled and smoothed his hair, "Remember to take a picture for me!"

…

During the voting period, in order to liven up the atmosphere, the host Miaomiao randomly interviewed ten audience members and asked which band would be the champion tonight.

Six audience members supported Tang Music Band, and four supported Voice of the Heart Band. A glimpse of the whole picture shows that the gap is really not that big.

The short interview session ended, the votes were counted, and the staff handed the hand card with the vote number to the on-site host.

"First I will announce the votes for the band that won third place tonight."

The host Miaomiao glanced at the card, confirmed it again, and said, "Third place: Vienna Orchestra, 38 votes!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the whole audience was in an uproar.

"The total number of votes given to them by the four judges just now is thirty-eight!"

"My goodness, this means that none of the forty public judges voted for them."

Although the members of the Vienna Orchestra felt a little embarrassed, they were still convinced by the result and bowed deeply to the audience to express their gratitude.

"Tonight, the first and second place contestants received 59 and 61 votes respectively."

Only one vote difference?

After listening to the song, the audience was even more excited to see who would be the champion, and the two bands were extremely nervous at this moment.

After a little suspense, the host Miaomiao raised her voice, turned around and pointed to the members of Tang Music Band, congratulating them: "Congratulations to Tang Music Band for winning the title of "Summer of the Band". Let's applaud and congratulate them!"

"good!"

"Tang Yin, you guys are the best!"

“We did it!”

The recording site was filled with thunderous cheers and applause. The members of the Tang Music Group bowed deeply, then jumped up and down in celebration, enjoying the moment to the fullest.

"What a pity, it was just a little bit short..."

The members of the Soul Voice band inevitably felt a sense of loss, but after adjusting their emotions, they generously went forward to hug and send blessings.

Winner!

Fans of Master Heyi were so excited when he declared victory that they shared the result on major social media platforms.

Lin Zhixing's fans were a little disappointed. Both songs were excellent and worthy of full votes. It can only be said that he was a little unlucky, and it was difficult to satisfy the judges.

Judges' seat.

The four judges applauded and congratulated. In their eyes, both songs deserved the championship and no matter which band won the title, it would be well-deserved.

…

Off screen.

Tianjin Art College, inside the tiered classroom.

The dean organized teachers and students to watch the final of "Summer of the Band" tonight.

Both teachers and students were shocked by the two pieces of music, and the music teachers are planning to include them in the music appreciation class.

"Everyone should learn from Lin Zhixing, he is the best student I have ever taught in my 40 years of teaching!"

During the voting period, the old professor who taught Lin Zhixing visual, auditory and ear training praised Lin Zhixing to the skies.

Of course, between the lines, Lin Zhixing's current success is also related to his teaching.

"Come on, Senior Lin!"

“Take first place!”

Because of Lin Zhixing's unique relationship with his alma mater, all teachers and students support the Voice of the Heart Band to win the championship.

But when they learned that the Voice of the Heart Band had lost to the Tang Music Band, everyone fell silent, and emotions of reluctance and regret filled the entire classroom.

Professor Huang, who had just been praising Lin Zhixing, was now speechless.

"The inside story!"

"Are the judges' ears filled with chicken feathers? Oh Ye Ge's song must have won!"

"Oh my god, it hurts!"

…

The recording hall of "The Band's Summer".

After the applause stopped, the host Miaomiao announced: "Thank you very much to Mr. Lin Zhixing and Mr. Heyi for bringing so many excellent works to our program! Tonight, our program team invited them both to the recording site. Next, please welcome Mr. Lin Zhixing to the stage to meet everyone!"

As soon as he finished speaking, there was thunderous applause from the audience.

"Wow, I'm a huge fan of Oh Ye Bro!"

"Oh yeah brother, oh yeah brother!"

The audience was very enthusiastic and their eyes were all focused behind the curtain. Suddenly, a piece of music sounded.

“Thump, thump, thump, thump~”

With the exclusive BGM "God of Gamblers' Entrance Song" playing, Lin Zhixing, with his shiny slicked-back hair, walked out from behind the scenes, smiling and waving.

"You're still smiling, brother. It's such a pity that we lost by one vote. I feel like crying now!"

"Keep going! Creating such an excellent work has more significance than ranking and votes!"

Lin Zhixing stood next to the Voice of the Heart Band, feeling the enthusiastic applause, and made a brief speech of thanks and expressed his humble opinions on the future of music.

…

Backstage of the performance.

"What should I do?"

"What a postponement! This is a program that was broadcast on the CCTV channel!"

The staff were completely panicked. They were about to invite "Master of Unity" to take the stage, but he hadn't arrived yet.

In other words, it's too late.

…

"Thank you very much Mr. Lin Zhixing for your wonderful speech. Now, please welcome the composer Mr. Heyi to the stage!"

Fans of Master Heyi, as well as composers and judges, will be very excited and eager to see the true face of such a great figure.

"I'm so excited. I'll be able to meet Master He Yi soon!"

"How old do you think the Master of Unity is?"

"Definitely over fifty."

"Fifty years old is considered young. With such a rich creative experience, he could be an old man over seventy years old!"

…

Lin Zhixing hurried back to the corridor, changed into a well-fitting Hanfu, and then headed straight for the stage.

The staff were stunned and hurriedly stopped Lin Zhixing, "Mr. Lin, you have just been on stage once. This time it is Master Heyi who will be on stage!"

"I am what you call the Master of Unity."

"Ah? Who are you?"

Amid the staff's surprised looks, Lin Zhixing trotted to the center of the stage and stood in front of the audience.

At the same time, the background music sounded again, this time it was the song "Arrogant and Laughing at the Waves", which is also the classic entrance song of this stage.

"Huh? Isn't Master Unity coming out? Why is Oh Ye Ge coming back again?"

"Oh yeah, I don't approve of not using "Lichunyuan" to appear in the show!"

The audience looked at Lin Zhixing who was running over with a confused look on his face, wondering if he had forgotten to say something just now and wanted to come back to add to it.

The host, judges, and composers also didn't understand it.

Lin Zhixing took the microphone from the host, glanced at the audience, raised the microphone, and announced his identity: "Let me introduce myself to everyone again. I am the composer He Yi. All the songs performed by the Tang Music Band are composed by me!"

Are you kidding? After hearing what Lin Zhixing said, everyone thought he was joking. How could the Heyi Master be the young him? Impossible, absolutely impossible.

After a brief silence, everyone started to talk.

The majority of people did not believe it, but some viewers thought that Lin Zhixing would not go crazy and brag in such an occasion, so it should be true.

Judges' seat.

Huang Xiao scratched his ears and asked Li Yumin in confusion, "Did I hear wrongly, or did he say wrong? How could the Heyi Master be Xiao Lin!"

Li Yumin's head was shaking like a rattle, and he still didn't recover.

…

Seeing that the scene was about to get out of hand, the host Miaomiao quickly pulled back the rhythm, walked to Lin Zhixing, raised the microphone and asked curiously: "Mr. Lin, are you telling the truth? The composer Heyi is you?"

"Um."

Lin Zhixing nodded heavily, then waved to Zheng Lili who was standing behind him and handed her the microphone.

Zheng Lili raised the microphone in her hand, looked at Lin Zhixing with admiration, and said to the audience: "He is right! The so-called composer-in-one is Lin Zhixing, the Oh Yeah Brother you are familiar with!"

"Our Tang Music Band was the first band he founded. Not satisfied with Chinese music, he later founded the Voice of the Heart Band, which focuses on Western music. We are very grateful to Brother Lin for our current success!"

Having said that, she hooked her fingers and sent a signal to the back, and all the members of the Voice of the Heart Band and the Tang Music Band bowed deeply to Lin Zhixing to express their gratitude.

At this moment, Lin Zhixing was like a gangster boss in movies and TV shows, with all his might.

Every word was so clear! Everyone was stunned, their minds went blank.

"I want to say something to the fans who support me."

Lin Zhixing took back the microphone and said, "Just now, the Voice of the Heart Band won the second place in "Summer of the Band" by one vote. I believe that the fans who support me must have been disappointed just now, right?"

"yes!"

There were a few audience members joining in the conversation.

"Everyone is worrying too much."

Lin Zhixing stared at the camera with a sharp gaze, patted his chest and said: "In music creation, the only one who can beat me is myself!"
