Chapter 612 The Choir, Choir Choir Choir Choir Choir Choir Choir Choir Choir, Attacks the Mad Clown Again (1/2)



Just ten minutes after he posted the message on his Twitter account.

Wang Yueheng, sitting in front of the computer, noticed this.

The account "TheJoker-Wang" has viewed the tweet and given it a like.

This means that the other party will most likely appear near Regent's Park around 5 p.m.

"Whether we can complete the mission or not, success or failure hinges on this..."

A long-lost sense of tension suddenly welled up in Wang Yueheng's heart.

After all, this was the first time I'd received a system task that could alter human nature like this…

While Wang Yueheng was busy investigating Roger's past.

soon.

The two choirs were also brought to the embassy by Cultural Counselor Jiao Weimin.

After going through a series of security checks, I met with Wang Yueheng in the reception room.

The choir members were clearly visiting the embassy for the first time, excitedly looking around.

Members of two choirs.

One of them is a team spontaneously organized by overseas Chinese from London's Chinatown who love music.

Most of the members are vocal music teachers from British universities or retired people with performance experience in China.

There were also some young faces, who were also vocal music enthusiasts.

The team leader's name was Wei Yuping. She had curly hair and wore a bright green long dress, a typical image of a retired middle-aged woman from China.

The other party was once a professor in the composition department of the China Conservatory of Music, a top music academy in China.

Later, she moved to England with her son and his family.

The other group comes from a professional music academy, the Royal Academy of Music in the UK.

Every member of the choir is a prodigy in the music world, and their professionalism is beyond question.

However, most of the members in this choir are Western singers, with only a couple of Chinese faces occasionally.

The team leader's name is Wendel, and he is also a Chinese-American male whose ancestral home is Hunan Province, China.

However, the other party seemed very reluctant to speak Mandarin and communicated with Wang Yueheng entirely in English.

Moreover, his expression and attitude also carried the arrogance typical of top students.

They believed that such a performance was overkill for the students of the Royal Academy.

In comparison, the strengths and weaknesses of both choirs are quite obvious.

The "ragtag" members of Chinatown have an advantage in language and some knowledge of Chinese history.

I share the same excitement and anticipation for the return of these Chinese cultural relics to the world.

However, the members' musical skills vary, and there is a significant gap in their professional level.

The Royal Academy of Music Orchestra in the UK has first-class singing skills and an absolutely perfect grasp of the beauty of music.

However, lacking the advantage of the Chinese language, they need to temporarily learn Chinese song lyrics.

Most importantly.

The Chinatown "ragtag" choir was noticeably more obedient to commands and more humble than the high-achieving students from the Royal Academy.

After comparing them,

Wang Yueheng finally made the decision.

Choose a choir made up of elderly people and young people from Chinatown to sing along.

The leaders of both choirs were shocked when they heard Wang Yueheng's decision.

Wei Yuping, who thought she was going to be a supporting character, was shocked that Wang Yueheng had actually given up the prestigious "Royal Academy of Music".

Wendel, who was determined to win and had already prepared to invite his friends to watch the performance, was completely dumbfounded.

Turning his head in disbelief to look at the ragtag group of elderly men and women from China, he thought Wang Yueheng had lost his mind.

"Although it may be impolite to say this, I think that choosing such an unprofessional team to participate in a formal performance is irresponsible to the audience."

We regret your poor judgment!

After leaving those words, Wendell, the head of the Royal Academy of Music choir, got up and left indignantly.

This was also the only sentence in Mandarin he spoke to Wang Yueheng throughout the entire conversation.

"Comrade Yue Heng, if you are not satisfied, I can help you find two more choirs to audition."

"There should be some Chinese choirs nearby, so there's still time."

Jiao Weimin mistakenly thought that Wang Yueheng had chosen the Chinatown choir out of necessity due to his language advantage, and then quietly reminded him.

"It's okay, this choir will do. I find all the uncles and aunties quite friendly."

Wang Yueheng smiled and politely declined the other party's offer.

He didn't particularly value these people's singing ability.

The most important thing is the appearance of the people of the Dragon Kingdom and their obedience to commands.

With the support of the domineering system, even if a group of mute people come, Wang Yueheng still has a way to make them speak.

Even singers with mediocre singing skills can instantly reach top-tier status by relying on props and merchandise.

Besides, Wang Yueheng currently has enough popularity points to splurge a little.

"Mr. Wang Yueheng, I really didn't expect you to choose us to participate in the performance."

"Our team members are all very excited. We will definitely rehearse hard and not let you down, and together we will win glory for our country!"

Upon learning that Wang Yueheng had ultimately chosen to keep her team, Wei Yuping from Shanghai excitedly assured him.

For these Chinese people who are far from their homeland, being able to participate in the embassy's invitation and sing for the return of Chinese cultural relics is a great honor.

It is simply the highest honor in one's life.

And it also lets friends back home know that even though I live abroad, I can still contribute to my country!

Looking at the expressions of the team members, they were all incredibly excited, as if they had won the lottery.

Clearly, these members came to the selection process prepared for the possibility of not being selected.

Unexpectedly, Wang Yueheng selected him right away.

"Then let's get started with rehearsals. Everyone will get a copy of the lyrics and sheet music. I'll explain the chorus parts and key points later..."

Under the supervision of embassy staff, each choir member signed a confidentiality agreement.

Wang Yueheng then led the choir to begin rehearsals directly in the reception hall.

The Little Red Flower Band, responsible for providing accompaniment, also set up their instruments in the corner of the room and participated in the intense rehearsal.

When I saw the sheet music for "Hundred Birds Returning to Their Nests" in my hand.

Wei Yuping, who once taught at China's top music academy, was once again deeply moved.

A magnificent and beautiful melody, lyrics full of profound meaning…

This song is absolutely the best piece she has ever encountered since forming her choir!

She had even foreseen it.

Tomorrow night, when the band and Wang Yueheng sing this song together on stage.

What amazed expressions must countless overseas Chinese viewers, many of the same age as myself, have...?

During rehearsals.

The beautiful melody and singing could be faintly heard through the door and reached the ears of the embassy staff who were working.

With such songs playing, all the embassy staff seemed to have more energy even when they were doing their work.

Almost everyone opened their office doors at the same time, wanting to hear the rehearsal singing more clearly.

"I wonder what kind of English song Wang Yueheng will write for Cameron's cabinet ministers..."

"It probably won't surpass 'See You Again'..."

I could faintly hear the rehearsal of "Birds Return to Their Nests".

Ambassador Peng Yingli and others couldn't help but secretly speculate.

...

"Boom!"

At 2 p.m., just as everyone had finished lunch and continued rehearsing.

Suddenly, a huge roar, like the sound of a bomb exploding, came from afar.

The entire building appeared to be shaking slightly.

Through the conference room window, a mushroom-shaped plume of black smoke could be seen rising from a distant block.

Not long after.

The deafening sirens of police cars blared once again throughout the city.

"Buzz, boom, boom~"

A black police helicopter roared in and swooped down toward the smoke.

At this moment, the streets were filled with panicked passersby.

No one understood what had happened.

"What happened?"

"That's scary, could it be an earthquake?"

"It looks like an explosion! Another terrorist attack in London!"...

The choir members who were rehearsing also showed expressions of surprise and panic.

Having lived in London for so many years, this was the first time they had ever encountered such a series of violent incidents.

This time they even used bombs!

What kind of people has the British government offended?

"Stay away from the windows! Be careful of cuts from shattered glass!"

While gesturing for everyone not to go to the window to watch the commotion, Wang Yueheng immediately turned on the mission radar and took a look.

Sure enough, "The Joker" Rogers was located near a bank at that moment.

It is Barclays Bank, one of the four major private banks in London.

It is also one of the largest commercial banks in the UK.

It is said that this bank's underground vault contains at least hundreds of tons of gold and other precious metals.
