Chapter 339 Elimination

Chapter 339 Elimination

"The old days are gone"

"I will also have my wife"

“I’ll show her the pictures too.”

"Tell her about you, my deskmate"

Lin Zhixing's singing voice was like a needle piercing into the hearts of the audience, instantly bringing them back to that innocent era. His simple singing was enough to bring tears to people's eyes.

The camera turned and gave a close-up of the audience.

The audience waved their glow sticks in unison, some smiled nostalgically about the past, and some wiped away tears silently.

"My deskmate got engaged today. I have an indescribable feeling in my heart. I sincerely wish her well and hope she has found someone who loves and cares for her. Many years later, I will still find your photo from the album and tell others about you, my deskmate!"

"23 years ago, one day in class, a girl who I had rarely spoken to moved to sit at the same table with me. We got to know each other, got to know each other, and fell in love. This year marks our 17th year of marriage, and our son is 15 years old."

“Rather than missing my youth or the good old days, it’s because of that person that I gave those years real meaning.”

…

Player seats.

Hua Futing glanced at the audience seats and saw that Feng Qi Wutong's singing moved the audience to tears. Beads of sweat flowed down his forehead and temples, and he thought to himself that something was wrong.

Judging from their current performance, they should be guaranteed an "A rating", and the atmosphere on the scene is even better than when they were singing just now.

If teacher Luo Desheng helps himself and gives Feng Qi Wu Tong a "B rating", then they will get 4 "A ratings" and 1 "B rating", the same as his own.

If the scores are the same, 10 audience members will be selected to vote. Judging from the current stage atmosphere, they have already won by moving the audience to tears...

“What should I do?”

Hua Futing looked at Feng Qi Wu Tong, who was singing passionately in the center of the stage, and rubbed his nails in confusion, "Will there be a miracle tonight?"

Except for Hua Futing, some of the other singers were paying attention to the competition itself, while others were immersed in the songs, their eyes red with empathy.

It is rare to find a song that can make the contestants empathize with the song to the point of tears in their eyes. It can only be said that campus songs are universal in terms of emotional appeal.

Judges' seat.

When Luo Desheng heard this, he reached out and put the score card with "B rating" on the top.

This campus-style folk song is so excellent that he had already expected that the other judges would give Feng Qi Wu Tong an "A rating".

As Hua Futing's teacher, Luo Desheng would help his apprentice even if he was scolded.

…

Gorgeous center stage.

The atmosphere on the scene gradually became better, Lin Zhixing and Song Ge held each other's hands and sang together emotionally.

"Who married you who is sentimental?"

"Who will comfort you who loves to cry?"

"Who put your long hair up?"

"Who made your wedding dress?"

“La la la la~~~~~~~~”

As the singing gradually slowed down, Lin Zhixing and Song Ge also put down their waving hands and savored the song they had sung. At this moment, everything seemed to have become so beautiful and happy.

At the end of the song, there was no doubt that they had performed brilliantly.

"Challenge successful!"

"Challenge successful!!!"

Hua Futing, who was sitting in the first row, listened to the deafening cheers from the audience supporting Feng Qi Wutong, and hugged his shoulders to try to remain calm.

But my heart was beating very fast and cold sweat was pouring down my forehead and temples.

The host Wang Bing walked onto the stage and said, "Okay, now please invite the five judges to give scores for Feng Qi Wu Tong!"

As soon as the words fell, the atmosphere at the scene suddenly became tense. Everyone wanted to know whether Feng Qi Wutong, who performed well, could defeat Hua Futing, who had connections.

The contestants were all secretly delighted, especially the singers sitting in the second row. They wished that the singers sitting in the first row would compete with each other and be eliminated, so that their chances of getting promoted would be greatly increased.

Judges' seat.

"What a pity, she sang it perfectly..."

Luo Desheng waited until the end of the song, but could not find any fault with Lin Zhixing and Song Ge. Their performance could be described as impeccable. It was obvious that they had practiced very hard and deserved an "A rating".

The camera turns.

Zhang A-mei wiped the corners of her eyes with the back of her hand, gave a thumbs-up, and gave an "A rating" evaluation, saying: "Your performance of "My Deskmate" tonight moved me."

"This song seems to express love, but I don't think it's much. It's more about the interpretation of youth and the fact that you are in my youth, which makes me feel worthy of my youth. It's a wonderful feeling, but also a little regretful. This song is the most beautiful campus song I have heard in recent years!"

She praised the song generously, drawing applause from the audience.

"I agree with what A-mei said!"

Li Zonghua also raised the "A rating" scoreboard and said: "Let me add one more thing, this song is one of the most beautiful and touching folk songs I have heard in recent years!"

The other two judges, Zhang Wuying and Wu Boqiang, did not hesitate at all. After briefly praising the award, they also gave it an "A rating".

The camera turns.

Judge Luo Desheng, who was sitting in the center, looked at Lin Zhixing and Song Ge in the center of the stage, slowly raised the scoreboard of "B rating", and said: "The song is well written, and the two of you performed very well, but I think there are some minor flaws in the harmony, maybe it is more suitable for solo singing. I hope you can get better coordination in the next episode!"

Just like when he commented on his apprentice Hua Futing, he described the shortcomings vaguely, but he really couldn't find any, so he could only speak vaguely to fool the audience.

The other four judges all had complicated expressions at this moment. They knew that Luo Desheng was trying to protect his apprentice. Although this was not fair to Feng Qi Wu Tong, they could understand the heart of a master.

"Oh, it's exposed!"

"This old fox seemed to be avoiding suspicion all the time, but he still took action at the critical moment!"

"Hey, you said you had given your apprentice an A earlier, so he would have advanced! You caused this result yourself!"

Although the audience did not understand professional song appreciation, they were not stupid and could see that Luo Desheng was intentionally helping his apprentice.

"good!"

The host Wang Bing smiled and gestured to stop. When the applause died down, he announced, "Since contestants Hua Futing and Fengqi Wutong have the same number of votes from the judges, I will now randomly select nine audience members to vote for them. The contestant who receives the most votes will stay on this stage."

"Choose me!"

"Wife, choose me, choose me!!!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the audience below the stage became excited, hoping to be selected by the host to support the singer they support.

"You! You...and you, please come on stage!"

The host Wang Bing avoided the audience holding fan light signs. The ratio of male to female audience members selected was similar, and the age groups were also relatively balanced.

"Okay, please write the name of your supporting singer on a hand card and give it to me!"

Following the host's explanation, nine audience members picked up markers, wrote down the contestants they supported on their cards, and handed the cards to the host.

Hua Futing also returned to the stage and stood on the other side of Fengqi Wutong. He was enveloped by a feeling of fear, and the script he had imagined in his mind had begun to unfold.

"Okay, please give me a close-up, Mr. Photography."

The camera zoomed in, and the host Wang Bing showed the pictures one by one, "Hua Futing 1 vote, Fengqi Wutong 1 vote, Fengqi Wutong 2 votes, Fengqi Wutong 3 votes... Fengqi Wutong 8 votes, congratulations to Fengqi Wutong for succeeding the challenge!"

Such a huge disparity in votes is really embarrassing.

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

"Wuhu won, well deserved!"

"You didn't disappoint me, you are the best!"

"If you want to talk about folk songs, you can't just talk about folk songs. You have to say that Fengqi Wutong defeated Hua Futing and dazzled the Spring Festival Music Gala."

Fans who supported Feng Qi Wu Tong sent their blessings one after another. Fans of Hua Fu Ting were dumbfounded. They never expected that the vote gap would be so huge. Is it okay with only one vote?

“I lost to them…”

Hua Futing stood on the stage in a daze, looking at the cheering fans below the stage. He became completely depressed, finding it difficult to accept this reality.

It was clear that as long as he could maintain his performance, he would have a chance of making it to the quarterfinals or even the semifinals. However, there were only more than 30 players left and he was about to be eliminated.

This result was all caused by the message I delivered that day...

"Retribution?"

Judges' seat.

"Why!"

Luo Desheng looked at his dejected apprentice in the center of the stage, sighed deeply, and felt very uncomfortable.

Even if I knew the result in advance, I would not regret giving Feng Qi Wutong a "B rating". The only thing I regret is not giving my apprentice an "A rating".

Obviously he performed very well on this stage, but because of my momentary misjudgment, he never had the chance to hit an A again.

“Zhixing, we succeeded!”

"Um!"

Lin Zhixing and Song Ge happily clapped their hands to celebrate the victory, and another obstacle in the way forward was cleared.

Player seats.

"Wuhu, it's worthy of Brother Lin and Pigeon, they really did it!"

Dong Chen and Ji Yu breathed a sigh of relief and laughed so hard that they couldn't stop. After Hua Futing was eliminated, his threat no longer existed.

…

Center stage.

The host Wang Bing handed the microphone to Hua Futing and said, "Contestant Hua Futing is about to leave this stage. Do you have anything to say to everyone?"

Although Hua Futing found it hard to accept this reality, he still gave a farewell speech in a generous manner, "Thank you for this stage, thank you for the audience who support me! Feng Qi Wu Tong is really excellent, it is my honor to compete with such an excellent singer..."

After some farewell speeches, Hua Futing waved goodbye to the stage.

When he reached the entrance of the passage, he suddenly stopped and looked back at the contestant seats.

His eyes were filled with reluctance and regret...

Player seats.

【bite!】

[Special mission completed, congratulations to the host for obtaining the song "Rose in the Palm" and a song selection card! ]

The system prompt sounded suddenly, and all the memories about the song were retrieved.

The song "Rose in the Palm" is the first duet song between JJ Lin and G.E.M. Deng. The collision of the two powerful singers shocked the audience and was widely acclaimed as soon as it was released.

Netizens call it - double-queuing is prohibited in the peak competition.

Lin Zhixing's gaze drifted towards Dong Chen and Ji Yu in the back row.

If they can practice hard and improve steadily, this song will give them a good ranking.

…

…

After the challenge the game continued.

One singer after another performed, and the singers showed off their talents in order to climb the rankings.

Finally, after four hours of recording, all the singers finished their performances.

Dong Chen and Ji Yu chose to sing the old song "Sigh" tonight. Their charming voices shocked the audience, but the final result was average.

Received 3 "B ratings" and 2 "C ratings", and unfortunately slipped from the second row of seats back to the third row of seats.

The other three of the new Four Heavenly Kings performed very well tonight. Zhou Luo and Tao Ji both secured their seats with 4 "A ratings" and 1 "B rating".

Cheng Huan, who had always been one step short of an "A rating", finally advanced to the first row of seats tonight with his outstanding performance.

"Thank you for your company tonight, see you next time..."

Finally, after the host Wang Bing’s closing remarks, the live recording of the seventh episode of "Loud Singing Voices" came to an end.

…

…

In the backstage dressing room.

After changing clothes and removing makeup, Hua Futing stared at herself in the mirror in a daze.

Although he was eliminated early, he never left, as if he was waiting for something.

"I will challenge you in the next competition! I am saying hello to you in advance. I hope you will be mentally prepared and perform at your best."

Hua Futing turned around suddenly.

There was no one behind me, not even in the entire locker room. It was just my imagination.

"Ring, ring, ring~~"

Suddenly, the phone rang.

Hua Futing took out his cell phone and took a look. It was a call from his master Luo Desheng.

"Hello, Master."

"Futing, did you leave early?"

"No, no, I'm in the locker room. I'm going to the parking lot now."

After hanging up the phone, Hua Futing rubbed his face to make himself more energetic. Finally, he took another look at the seat prepared for him by the program crew, and then left reluctantly.

…

…

In the underground parking lot.

"Futing, here!"

Luo Desheng, who was leaning against a pillar in the parking lot, waved to his approaching apprentice.

“Master!”

Hua Futing walked over with a weak smile, looking uglier than crying.

Luo Desheng felt sorry for his disciple, patted him on the shoulder, and said comfortingly: "Futing, I really didn't expect them to challenge you this time. It's all my fault for making a wrong judgment, which has caused irreversible consequences..."

"What are you talking about, Master!"

Hua Futing smiled and waved his hands, "I don't blame you at all, you are doing this for my own good. I don't blame anyone for being eliminated, it's just that I'm not as skilled as others..."

The more he said this, the more guilty Luo Desheng felt.

He knew well how hard his apprentice had worked to get on the Spring Festival Music Gala stage...but, he ended up with such a result.

Who to blame?

It's all Feng Qi Wu Tong's fault! It was all because of me that they challenged my apprentice.

When Luo Desheng thought of this name, he was ignited with anger. He clenched his fists and assured his apprentice: "Fu Ting, don't worry! I promise you, someone will challenge them and eliminate them!"

"good!"

Hua Futing smiled bitterly and nodded.

Even if they were eliminated, they wouldn't have a revival match, so it would be useless...

In a nearby car.

A singer who was lying on a chair waiting for someone heard their conversation and was shocked.
