"Whoosh~"
As the spotlight returned.
The Little Red Flower band members reappeared on the now quiet stage.
It has everything: electronic keyboard, drum set, guitar, and bass.
Meng Li and Gao Fei, standing behind the instruments, both wore faint smiles.
"How can they still laugh? Don't they know this is a very dangerous thing?"
"Wang Yueheng's image might be ruined!"
Director Chen An, who remained at the scene, couldn't help but feel anxious for the band on stage and Wang Yueheng himself.
I don't want Wang Yueheng to be so badly criticized in China before I even get my hands on the new song...
"Wang Yueheng's move this time was a bit risky..."
"They're actually singing for Japanese people on foreign soil. If we were to tell a joke and praise our daily lives, we'd get yelled at and asked for refunds."
"Refunds? That's too lenient. These guys would rush onto the stage and slap us both across the face!"
Kyoto, headquarters of the Tokugawa Society.
Guo Dalin, who is currently filming his new movie "Raging Storm" and took some time to visit his father at home, is sitting under a large, leafy tree in the backyard.
A laptop was placed on the table in front of him, and the screen showed Wang Yueheng performing at California Institute of Technology.
Zhu Feng, Yan He, Zhang Haomiao... several crosstalk performers who had no scheduled performances.
They were all gathered behind Guo Dalin, enthusiastically discussing Wang Yueheng's encore performance.
They were all taken aback for a moment.
Why did Wang Yueheng reappear on stage? Why did he sing to celebrate the establishment of diplomatic relations between China and Taiwan?
Besides, this isn't an official or formal occasion, is it?
"I believe in Teacher Yue Heng; it's definitely not as simple as we think!"
"Maybe it's just to disgust these fake foreigners."
Guo Dalin, who had dealt with Wang Yueheng quite a bit, appeared calm and confident.
He waved a paper fan with the words "Deyun Society" printed on it, smiling and shaking his head to deny the negative views of his senior and junior brothers.
This was not just the case for Deyun Society.
CCTV's "Six Princesses" (a major media outlet that recently heavily promoted Wang Yueheng's new novel "The Grave Robbers' Chronicles"), the official website of Changbai Mountain Scenic Area, the Chinese Opera Association, Jiangxi TV, Hunan TV...
Domestic media organizations that have good relations with Wang Yueheng are also closely watching his every move overseas.
Even some Japanese news media have turned their attention to this Chinese entertainer.
What was supposed to be a traditional University of California welcome party turned into a personal showcase for Wang Yueheng.
...
"Knock knock~"
Under the spotlight, a rhythmic drumbeat rang out first.
Drummer Zhang Heng sat behind the drum kit, raised his drumsticks, and forcefully struck the bass tom-tom on one side.
The powerful and awe-inspiring drumbeats instantly filled the ears of everyone present.
Immediately, a string accompaniment with an oriental rhythm was incorporated into it.
Before anyone could react...
A magnificent building, resembling a winding dragon, suddenly appeared on the stage.
It's the Great Wall of China!
Even more unexpectedly...
The Great Wall, perched atop the mountains, is adorned with rows of bright red flags that flutter in the wind.
"It's the Great Wall!"
"Huh? Wasn't the plan to promote Japanese culture?"
"This is clearly a landmark ancient building of the Dragon Kingdom!"
"Or perhaps... the footage from Japan will appear later?"
At this moment, both the audience in the audience and netizens from various countries in the live broadcast room were completely dumbfounded.
Wasn't the promise to promote Japanese culture?
What's with the sudden appearance of the Great Wall of China?
Accompanied by Meng Li and others humming.
Above the majestic Great Wall, under a clear sky.
A white bilingual subtitle appeared.
"The People of the Dragon Kingdom"
Composer and lyricist: Wang Yueheng
Singer: Wang Yueheng
Accompaniment: Little Red Flower Band
"This song is dedicated to the 45th anniversary of the establishment of diplomatic relations between China and Japan. May the world enjoy lasting peace!"
When Kishimoto Tetsuji, who had been sitting in the audience with a smug expression, saw the song title displayed on the stage, he was stunned.
He thought he was seeing things.
He lowered his head again and carefully examined the sheet music that Wang Yueheng had just given him.
The sheet music and song title clearly indicate that it is titled "The Japanese"!
How come it turned into "The People of the Dragon Kingdom" on stage?
