Chapter 329: Making Dumplings for Jealousy



Chapter 329: Making Dumplings for Jealousy

That night.

One, two, three, four stars are connected into a line.

Lin Zhixing sat in front of the computer, holding the mouse in one hand and his mobile phone in the other, staring at the ticketing software and waiting for the tickets to be released at midnight.

Dong Chen stood behind him, filming live, "Okay, everyone get ready, if Brother Lin doesn't get the tickets, I'll give away 200 physical albums immediately!"

After the second wave of concert ticket pre-sale was released on Weibo, many fans said that they couldn’t get 50,000 tickets, let alone 18,000 tickets, so Lin Zhixing started a live broadcast to grab tickets to prove that “anyone can get tickets”! As the clock struck midnight,

Da da da da da!

Lin Zhixing poured all his strength into his fingertips and tapped them madly.

After five seconds, the loading circle finished spinning and a dialog box popped up.

[Sorry, the tickets for Fengqi Wutong's "Good Luck and Good Fortune" concert are sold out! ]

Lin Zhixing was motionless, not a still picture...

“Hahahaha, even the singer himself can’t grab it!”

"Damn, the sense of immersion is too strong. I didn't get it just now, and I even got a mouse..."

"I feel comfortable. This live broadcast is very relaxing!"

The other side.

In a high-end apartment.

【Congratulations, your purchase is successful! 】

“Oh shit!”

Wang Feng sat in front of the computer and clicked on the dialog box indicating successful purchase, then fell into deep thought.

In order to test whether the news that Fengqi Wutong's concert tickets were sold out in one second was true, he stayed up late to test it himself, but he didn't expect it to be a success.

Bad news: The news that it sold out in one second is indeed true.

Bad news: I lost 800 yuan on the ticket with real-name authentication.

“Damn it!”

There is no harm without comparison. Wang Feng’s 50,000 concert tickets were sold out just half an hour ago.

As a senior in the music industry, Wang Feng felt that he had lost face as he sold 50,000 seats while Lin Zhixing sold 68,000 seats. He was so angry that he called his agent.

"What's wrong, Brother Feng?"

"Talk to the organizers and let's add 18,000 tickets!"

The person on the other end of the phone felt a little embarrassed after hearing this.

“Well, I think this number…”

"Listen to me, just like these 50,000 tickets, the worst that can happen is that we sell them slowly, and we will definitely sell them all out."

"Okay, I'll go communicate right away!"

At midnight the next day.

Wang Feng sat in front of the computer with great anticipation, checking the sales status of his second round of concert tickets.

After reaching an agreement with the organizer, he followed suit and preheated ticket sales on Weibo, spending a large sum of money to buy a wave of hot searches on Weibo.

He felt that even if the sales were slow, they would still be sold out within two days.

However, ideals are full and reality is skinny.

The sales were very strong at the beginning, with 3,000 tickets sold in half an hour, but after that, only a few hundred tickets were sold every half an hour.

Wang Feng, who refreshed the screen every few minutes, was panicking.

The condition for communicating with the organizer to open up the remaining seats is that if they cannot be sold, I will pay the original ticket price.

The feeling of anxiety kept Wang Feng awake all night.

Six o'clock in the morning.

Wang Feng, with dark circles under his eyes, swiped the mouse with an accelerated heartbeat and took a look at the remaining tickets.

【13452 tickets remaining. 】

At this moment, Wang Feng, who was so obsessed with his reputation, felt like the sky was falling.

Two days later.

In the afternoon of the recording day of the sixth episode of the Spring Festival Music Gala "Loud Songs".

In a high-end apartment.

"Brother Feng, haven't you been out these two days? You need to shave before the game!"

Wang Feng's agent Wang Hai came to Wang Feng's home, ready to accompany him to the competition later. He was very surprised to see Wang Feng's unshaven and unkempt appearance.

"I'll do it in a minute... Sit down!"

Wang Feng invited his agent into the room, sat down on the sofa, rubbed his temples and sighed, "Hai, there are only more than 8,000 tickets left, I feel like they won't be sold out..."

"Hey, I thought it was unreliable to open up the remaining seats..."

"Stop talking!"

Wang Feng hated to hear hypotheticals, so he gritted his teeth and said, "I'll just buy all the remaining tickets in one go. It'll look better if they sell out quickly!"

Looking at Wang Feng who was suffering for the sake of face, his agent Wang Hai shook his head helplessly, "I have an idea that will be good for ticket sales. I wonder if you are willing to do it?"

"explain!"

"How is your relationship with Lin Zhixing?"

"he?"

Wang Feng frowned, thought for a moment, and said, "I think it's OK. We had dinner together after the show ended, and I said a lot of encouraging words to him, which touched him. We didn't talk a lot during the recording of "Loud and Clear Singing", but he always greeted me warmly."

"By the way, in my interview a while ago, I mentioned that there was still some gap between him and good singers. After being exaggerated by the media, I wonder if he has any opinion on me because of this."

After listening to this, manager Wang Hai nodded and said, "Brother Feng, you haven't found the guests for your concert yet! Try inviting them tonight. If they are willing to go, I think it will help sell tickets. Then buy out all the tickets after you try. The more money you can save, the better!"

Wang Feng pursed his lips, raised his eyebrows and asked, "You mean, Feng Qi Wu Tong's fans can't buy his tickets. I invited them to perform, and if they want to see their fans, they will spend money to buy my tickets to watch?"

Agent Wang Hai nodded, "Yes, that's what I meant. I think it might have some effect."

“Puff!”

Wang Feng couldn't help laughing out loud, "I don't believe there's an idiot who wants to make dumplings out of jealousy!"

The building of Beijing Central Television Radio Station.

Inside the singer's lounge.

"Come on, relax, I believe you will win tonight!"

Song Ge, who had trained Dong Chen and Ji Yu for a week, cheered them on before the competition.

"Yes, we will win!"

Lin Zhixing couldn't help but look at them with admiration as he watched them practicing their voices seriously.

I just found out that they told Shen Fei about the challenge a few days ago on the phone. Obviously, they would have a better chance of winning if they challenged secretly, but they challenged openly and honestly. They have guts!

"Good evening, Xiaolin!"

"Um?"

The voice sounded familiar. Lin Zhixing turned around and saw Wang Feng, dressed in a suit and tie, walking towards him with a smile on his face.

"Brother Feng!"

Lin Zhixing stood up and started talking.

After briefly chatting about the competition, Wang Feng took out his phone and poked and tapped it to show it to Lin Zhixing, "Xiao Lin, what do you think this is?"

Lin Zhixing took the phone and glanced at it, then raised his head in disbelief and asked, "Brother Feng, you actually got it! I tried to get it myself the other day but failed! Thank you for your support, Brother Feng!"

"Well, it's nothing, it's nothing. You are my favorite singers among the new generation! I didn't get the tickets the first time for 50,000 yuan, but I was lucky the second time!"

Wang Feng's words made Lin Zhixing smile from ear to ear.

After saying some nice things, Wang Feng smiled and got to the point: "Xiao Lin, I haven't invited the guests for my concert yet. If you and Xiao Song have time, please help me out!"

"Of course, I have time that day!"

It only takes 20 minutes to drive to the Workers' Stadium without taking a plane or high-speed train. Lin Zhixing agreed to be a supporting performer at the concert without any hesitation.

The invitation went much more smoothly than expected.

After greeting Lin Zhixing, Wang Feng immediately sent out a Weibo post with a try-it attitude, and attached a photo of the two of them.

[Concert guest revealed, Feng Qi Wu Tong! ! ! ]

After posting on Weibo, Wang Feng sighed without holding out hope, "The less loss, the better!"

Outside the director's room.

"Sister Fei, are you sure you want to sing this song tonight? Don't think about it again? If nothing goes wrong, Feiyue Miracle will definitely sing the new song written by Lin Zhixing tonight!"

Before submitting her song for the competition tonight, Debbie from Cafe Latte suddenly had a bad feeling.

The group's strongest song had already been sung, as had the new song written by Lin Zhixing. Facing the challenge from Feiyue Miracle, Dai Bi wanted to take out the group's second strongest song to fight back, but the two had a disagreement.

Shen Fei meant that the second strongest song should be left to August Miracle, and the third strongest song would be enough to deal with Leap Miracle. Dai Bi had no choice but to agree.

Shen Fei lifted her hair and said coolly, "Sure, you have to trust a woman's intuition!"

Dai Bi: “…”

Fifteen minutes before kick-off.

Wang Feng was about to lock his phone in the locker and prepare to go on stage when the phone suddenly rang. It was his agent Wang Hai who answered the phone.

"Didn't I tell you before not to call me 20 minutes before the game? Come on!"

"Brother Feng, I just wanted to cheer you up before the game! Less than an hour after I posted on Weibo, our tickets were sold out!"

"What? More than 8,000 tickets sold out?"

Wang Feng immediately hung up the phone and opened the ticket selling software.

Click in and exit, click in and exit, after repeated operation confirmation, the corners of his mouth stretched to his ears.

“Oh my god, this is incredible!”

There was still time, Wang Feng opened the comment section of the Weibo post he had posted earlier.

Among them, the most popular comment is as follows.

[I have purchased Fengqi Wutong vermicelli! Oh, I made dumplings just to make myself jealous! ]

The post below this hot review was also quite lively, with a group of people posting their ticket stubs and commenting.

【+1】

【+2】

【……】

【+10086】

Wang Feng couldn't help but smile bitterly after reading it, "Feng Qi Wu Tong's fans are really awesome!"

Eight o'clock in the evening.

All the singers lined up and sat down in the order they had been seated last time.

"I'm going to go crazy tonight!"

Tao Ji, who was sitting in the second row, kept his high-spirited gaze on Feng Qi Wutong, who was sitting in the first row.

In order to live up to his sister Tao Ranran's expectations, he will perform well in this episode and plans to sit in the first row.

Similarly, Hua Futing's eyes were fixed on Lin Zhixing.

In order to cope with the challenge of Fengqi Wutong this episode, Hua Futing did not go out for a week. He started practicing as soon as he opened his eyes every day and made full preparations.

He had used his strongest song in the last episode, so this time he would use his teacher Luo Desheng’s folk song to prepare for the competition.

As the saying goes, one should not judge by the monk's appearance, but by the Buddha's appearance. Since he is Luo Desheng's apprentice and he has to sing his teacher's song tonight, he believes that the judges will give him some face when giving their scores.

With a gesture from the on-site director, the noisy scene suddenly became quiet, and the live recording of the sixth episode of "Loud Singing Voices" officially began.

As the most popular music program in China, every episode of the competition is a hot topic for people to talk about after dinner. Countless long-awaited viewers rushed into the live broadcast room as soon as possible, and the barrage was boiling at this moment! "First, the sofa!"

"Looking forward to Feng Qi Wu Tong and Tao Ji's second R&B show. Tao Ji, defend your stage!"

"'Loud and Clear Song' cannot exist without Oh Ye Ge, just like wife cake cannot exist without wife!"

Amidst the warm applause from the audience, CTS host Wang Bing, wearing a cheongsam in blue and white porcelain colors, came to the center of the stage with smiling eyes and waving.

"Good evening, audience friends, welcome to the program "Loud and Clear Singing". I am tonight's host, Wang Bing..."

After the opening remarks, the five judges came on stage, and each judge's appearance drew cheers from the audience.

After the judges were seated, the host Wang Bing walked back to the center of the stage, pointed to the screen behind him and said with a smile: "I declare that the competition will start now. Who will be the first singer to appear? Everyone, please look at the big screen!"

The audience stared at the stage screen intently, full of anticipation for tonight's performance.

As the avatars of the forty-three contestants began to scroll rapidly, the atmosphere in the contestant seats gradually became tense, as everyone was afraid that the opening performance would not go well.

Ten seconds later, the scrolling speed slowed down and finally stopped, and the information of the first player appeared.

Black willow

【Singer: Tao Ji】

【Lyrics: Tao Ji】

【Composition: Tao Ji】

【Arranger: Tao Ji】

"Come on, get to the front row!"

"The weird screams at the beginning, the sudden high notes, the inexplicable angry voice, the weak falsetto, the expected broken voice, the crazy transitions, the self-entertaining interactions! These are the characteristics of the R&B Godfather's concert in my house!"

"Wow, keep it up! I really like your impromptu singing with teacher Han Chunhong. You laid a nest of eggs in anger!"

Amidst the warm applause from the audience, Tao Ji adjusted the collar of his jacket, waved, walked onto the stage, and stood under the spotlight.

When he gathered his emotions and opened his eyes, he seemed like a different person, his eyes were sharp and firm.

The R&B style prelude sounded, and amid the audience's anticipation, Tao Ji raised the microphone and spoke.

He did not hold back tonight and sang one of his signature songs since his debut.

His singing tonight was free and unrestrained, and he could improvise and change the tune at will. There is a characteristic of his singing: no matter how many times he sings a song, the melody will never be the same.

The key is the pure and clear tone, the smooth transition between true and false voices, and the penetrating strong mixed voice high notes, which highlight the vocal accomplishment of this R&B godfather all the time.

At the end of the song, the wonderful performance made the fans enjoy the evening and they were not disappointed at all.

"Great! Brother Tao is the one who has to do R&B!"

"Please keep it up!"

The camera turns to the judges' panel.

"He is worthy of being called the Godfather of R&B in Chinese music!"

Zhang A-mei held up the "A rating" scoreboard and praised generously: "I think on this stage, in this R&B style, you are the absolute king, no one can beat you!"

As soon as he finished speaking, applause broke out from the audience, and the audience all expressed their approval of this statement.

In the end, except for judge Wu Boqiang who gave him a "B rating", all other judges gave him an "A rating", and Tao Ji successfully advanced to the first row of seats.

"Okay, thank you Tao Ji for your wonderful performance. Who is the next singer to perform? Please look at the big screen!"

The contestant information on the stage screen gradually stopped scrolling and finally froze.

Love is simple

【Singer: Feng Qi Wu Tong】

【Lyrics: Lin Zhixing】

【Composition: Lin Zhixing】

【Arranger: Lin Zhixing】

"Okay, next we would like to invite Fengqi Wutong Band to perform the song "Love is Simple". Please welcome them with applause!"
