Chapter 342 Going Mad
We could have had it all
Rolling in the deep
You had my heart inside your hand
And you played it to the beat”
Some people foresaw this and were mentally prepared, such as the ten judges on the judging panel and some industry authorities.
Only a minority of people could foresee this, because the vast majority of people did not expect that Bai Wanqiu would suddenly raise her head and sing. The high-pitched voice, which seemed to tear her throat, was deafening and echoed for a long time. Even after it dissipated, everyone's eardrums could still feel the vibration!
Hearing is here, but what about sight?!
Yes, you can have it!
On the stage, this container constructed with special effects suddenly explodes!
The splashing water and the shattered glass shards elicited screams from the entire audience!
Those in seats closer to the audience thought there was an explosion and tried to dodge to varying degrees!
This scene caused the faces of those professionals who were good at special effects to change drastically.
reality!
So true!
The rendering effects were so realistic, and the physical simulation was so lifelike, that they couldn't believe that such a high level of technology, which could be described as unparalleled and even indistinguishable from reality, came from China!
What's even more speechless is that such a huge amount of manpower and resources were spent just for a song!
“Baby, I have no story to be told
But I've heard one on you and I'm gonna make your head burn
Think of me in the depths of your despair
Making a home down there as mine sure won't be shared”
In fact, Bai Wanqiu was also quite frightened at that moment.
Although she knew this would happen before the competition, and Lin Rui had shown her some scenes when he was giving her special guidance, seeing it on a screen was one thing, but the feeling of being there in person was another!
However, she also knew that she could not show the slightest panic, so even though she instinctively wanted to dodge, she still managed to suppress it by biting her lip.
"You can do that?!"
Is this backtracking?
"It shouldn't be. If I'm not mistaken, the routes to and from the destination are different."
"Are you kidding me? If it's not a rollback, but a complete rebuild, do you know what that means?!"
…
Countless special effects experts were discussing it heatedly, watching the water droplets and glass shards splashed everywhere on the stage, restored at a visible speed as if time had reversed, and almost all of them showed a look of shock as if they had seen a ghost.
Many people say this is a rewind, that it's replaying the explosion scene from before, but anyone with eyes can see that it's not a rewind, but a newly created special effect!
But the cost of producing the special effects for this segment alone has already exceeded the total cost of all the special effects that have appeared on stage so far at the World Arts Festival!
China has gone mad!
This is only the semi-finals!
Perhaps these people who work on special effects and animation are only amateurs when it comes to music appreciation, but don't doubt their understanding of special effects. In their opinion, such nuclear-level special effects should only appear in the finals!
"Is there another possibility that Shenzhou has prepared some of these special effects as well?"
Fuck!
You really dare to dream!
Is it possible?
In the past, they would have only one thought: Impossible!
But now, no one who has such thoughts dares to make that promise!
After Bai Wanqiu finished her performance, the judges on the panel should have already given their opinions and immediately assigned their scores.
After removing the highest and lowest scores, the overall score is 9.1.
"Advanced to the finals!"
While it's not accurate to say the whole country is jubilant, it's true that most ordinary people across China have started cheering!
Although this is not a gold medal, with Bai Wanqiu's current overwhelming strength, everyone feels that the gold medal is almost a sure thing!
Moreover, unlike those smaller events, this is a spot in the finals of the popular mixed group, which can be said to be the most popular event at the World Arts Festival!
Cheers erupted in the Tianrui conference room, and everyone was in high spirits.
"The score is a bit low."
Chen Tianye analyzed rationally: "Bai Wanqiu's performance on stage can be described as impeccable. I dare to guarantee that the style and charm of the whole song will set off a sensation internationally. A score of 9.3 should be the true score of this song. It can only be said that the judges of the mixed group were a bit too demanding."
"The problem must be with the opening accompaniment."
Uncle Qiao frowned slightly.
"It's hard to say at the moment."
Chen Tianye nodded, then shook his head: "The judges must have their own reasons for their scores. These people have world-class appreciation for music, so there may be things I overlooked."
"No matter what, Xiao Rui has become a sensation this time."
A look of shock appeared in Uncle Qiao's eyes: "There are too many works related to him in this World Arts Festival. He is currently in first place in the Best Contribution Award voting list. His popularity has now surpassed that of those who are winning gold medals."
"yes."
Chen Tianye couldn't help but praise, "Perhaps he will have the opportunity to go to Gaul this year."
"You mean global music festivals?"
Uncle Qiao was taken aback at first, then suddenly laughed and said, "As long as there's no behind-the-scenes manipulation, we might be winning awards left and right."
Some people understood the scores given by the judges, while others did not.
Of course, the majority of people don't understand.
Especially those technical talents who work on animation and special effects, the introverted ones are okay, they just curse a few times, but those with straightforward personalities have already started to take advantage of their speed of typing dozens of times per second in the barrage, with all kinds of insults related to the word "bitch", which is quite a wonderful display!
However, it's too homogenized, lacking the profoundness of the Chinese language, and the overly repetitive language organization makes it boring after a while.
Half an hour later, Lu Ye picked up the remote control and switched to the popular women's group channel.
Shen Yun has made her appearance.
Thunderous applause and screams erupted at the scene. Although Bai Wanqiu had become a sensation overseas, Shen Yun still led in terms of popularity.
Some unofficial sources have calculated that when Shen Yun appeared, the number of viewers watching the live stream exploded, with the growth rate reaching hundreds of millions per second!
At that moment, the song that Shen Yun was about to sing appeared on the giant screen.
—Because of You
Splash!
Special effects suddenly appeared on the stage.
Mirror? !
Surrounded by mirrors on all sides, as if they were real mirrors, countless reflections of Shen Yun were displayed.
"Oh God, this can't be real!"
Seeing this, all the animation and special effects talents started scratching their heads!
Special effects are called special effects because no matter how realistic they are, they are still illusions.
But these mirrors now reflect Shen Yun's image, and they actually have the function of mirrors in reality.
