Chapter 165 Successfully topped the list!

The southernmost tip of the South China Sea.

Lucheng is a famous tourist attraction.

In a music bar adjacent to Haijing Street, three members of the band Legend, Le Yan, Su Liang and Huang Hai, were staring at the pictures playing on the TV not far away, in a daze.

They were not the only ones staring in a daze; many tourists who came to the store to have a drink were also in the same mood.

Everyone was attracted by "Sunset Boulevard" sung by Fenghuang Yufei. In the store of less than 70 square meters, only the singing of Bai Xingjian and Feng Shiqi was lingering.

Only after the song ended did the rustling sound begin to be heard.

“This song is so beautiful!”

"It sounds good! It sounds really good!!"

“I feel like I can play this song Sunset Boulevard on repeat for a long time!”

"Hahahaha tomorrow I'm going to drive my car, play this song, and go for a walk!"

"Run to the beach, step on the golden sand, feel the beautiful sunset, and the evening breeze blows over the beach dinner... I'm afraid that Bai Xingjian is here!"

"Tsk~ He wrote Las Vegas."

"You don't have to understand it so narrowly. The song 'Sunset Boulevard' could be written anywhere!"

Listening to the discussions around him, Le Yan couldn't help but smile brightly: "Sunset Boulevard is so well written!"

Huang Hai nodded in agreement: "Especially the melody solo at the end that lasts for more than a minute without lyrics. Such a bold design does not make people feel boring at all. Instead, it makes the mood of the song more rich and mellow. It is really unique!"

“I really want to sing this song!”

Su Liang said with emotion: "What do you think if I ask Brother Xing Jian to authorize the song "Sunset Boulevard"? I really like this song! And if we can sing "Sunset Boulevard" at our performance in a few days, the scene will definitely be beautiful!"

Three days later, the legend band will perform on the music festival stage on the edge of the beach. Their performance time is exactly from 18:30 to 19:30, which is the sunset time in Lucheng.

"of course can!"

Le Yan's smile remained unchanged: "If Brother Xing Jian agrees."

"Given Brother Xingjian's personality, he will definitely agree." Su Liang grinned, "I was chatting with him on WeChat a few days ago."

……

"Sunset Boulevard" is included in Liang Bo's album "Hide and Seek" released in 15, and was sung on the show "Singer" in 17.

In this live version, because of Liu Junge's soft singing, countless music fans regard this version as a classic. Although it did not achieve very good results at the time, it also allowed many audiences to successfully remember the song.

on the stage.

After Bai Xingjian and Feng Shiqi finished their performance, they bowed slightly to the audience.

Everyone who was immersed in the mood of the song stepped out at this moment and gave warm applause and cheers to Fenghuang Yufei.

“The vibe of this song is so beautiful!”

He Ling held up the microphone at the edge of the stage and said with emotion: "Thank you Fenghuang Yufei for the wonderful performance!"

Bai Xingjian and Feng Shiqi walked towards the passage at the edge of the stage, and under the guidance of their music partner, they walked to the backstage with Duanmei and Ma Shen.

"Then it's time to make a decision."

He Ling faced the audience and said in a deep voice: "Among the two performances just now, please listen to the members of the jury and choose the stage that moved you more!"

"Three, two, one!"

“Voting begins!”

The rules of the chart-topping competition are as follows: after the chart-topping singer and the defending singer have finished their performances, the 1001 audience members will vote to choose one of the two.

With the background music carrying a certain sense of tension, the atmosphere on the scene gradually became warmer.

"'See You Again' is a classic among classics. With the arrival of Ma Shen tonight, I voted for this song without hesitation!"

“Indeed! Although Sunset Boulevard by Phoenix is ​​beautiful, it is still a long way from See You Again.”

"I don't like listening to English songs, so I voted for Phoenix Flying."

"I listened to "See You Again" and "Sunset Boulevard" for the first time. The former has richer layers, while the latter is more catchy. I don't know which one to vote for."

"Yeah! It's a really hard decision."

"Forget it, let's select the troops and generals!"

……

"What are these people still thinking? They must be voting for Broken Eyebrow and Ma Shen!"

"Their performance was so classic that they beat Bai Xingjian and Feng Shiqi instantly, okay?"

In front of the TV, Wang Yaqi's happiness was beyond words.

Mango TV has invited the God of Ma, and the two original singers of "See You Again" have joined forces. There is no doubt that Bai Xingjian and Feng Shiqi will lose tonight!

"The production team is really bad."

Li Zhenxi's mouth was almost cracked to his ears. "Looking at Bai Xingjian's surprised expression before, I know that the production team must have kept the news of Ma Shen coming to the show a secret!"

“Hahahaha! Even Phoenix Yufei gets stabbed in the back by the production team sometimes!”

Wang Yaqi couldn’t stop smiling. She couldn’t wait to see the scene where He Ling announced that Fenghuang Yufei had failed to defend the ranking.

……

"Okay! Voting is over!"

Host He Ling continued to control the situation, "We will temporarily keep the voting results secret and announce them after all singers have finished singing."

"Next, let's listen to Fenghuang Yufei, Duanmei and Weizi's opinions on each of them."

As the words fell, the camera switched to the backstage.

"Ok!"

"Now Fenghuang Yufei, Duanmei and Weizi have come to my side."

The interactive host Xiao Shen said with a smile: "The competition is over, so let's first ask Duan Mei, how do you feel now?"

With the help of his music partner, Duan Mei said modestly and respectfully: "It feels great! The live stage is great! And one thing I must say is that their performance is wonderful!"

Broken Eyebrow raised his hand to signal Fenghuang Yufei and continued, "While listening to their songs, I felt as if I was back on Sunset Boulevard. The atmosphere is really great! It's hard not to indulge in it!"

The music partner translated Duanmei's words into Chinese, and Bai Xingjian and Feng Shiqi smiled and nodded.

"What about Vizi?" Xiao Shen asked Ma Shen.

Ma Shen held up the microphone and smiled, "It's an honor to be here tonight. It's a very special experience! Their singing is beautiful!"

Xiao Shen smiled and nodded, then looked at Bai Xingjian and Feng Shiqi and asked, "Are you surprised by Wei Zi's arrival?"

"That's quite a surprise!"

Bai Xingjian smiled and said: "The program team will give everyone surprises. When Weizi rose from the lift platform, I think many viewers were surprised. "See You Again" is a very classic song. It is a rare enjoyment to see Duanmei and Weizi singing on the stage of "The Voice of China 2024"."

Many netizens deeply agreed with what Bai Xingjian said, and the barrage of comments floated up.

“It’s really a treat!”

"I never thought that I would be able to see Duanmei and Ma Shen perform together in my lifetime. The production team is awesome!"

“But I have to say that Phoenix Yufei’s singing of Sunset Boulevard prolonged this enjoyment for a long time.”

"Yeah! Both songs are good tonight, but I don't know what the result will be."

After a brief interview, the staff pushed a small blackboard over.

There is a table on the small blackboard, with the first to seventh places respectively, and there are many empty spaces in the rows corresponding to the rankings.

At the bottom of the table, there are seven groups of online singers’ magnetic cards, with the singers’ portraits and names on them.

The interactive host, Xiao Shen, explained: "In this chart-topping competition, the singer who ranks last in a single game will face the risk of leaving. So, please let Fenghuang Yufei make a prediction first. What do you think your ranking will be tonight?"

After saying that, Xiao Shen took Fenghuang Yufei's magnetic card off the blackboard.

Bai Xingjian thought for a moment and blurted out, "Second place."

"Second place? Is Xiaobai so modest tonight?"

Xiao Shen was surprised and looked at Duanmei: "Why don't we give Duanmei the chance to predict and see where he will rank Fenghuang Yufei?"

The audience burst into laughter when they heard this.

Is this putting the blame for the public execution on Duanmei?
Duanmei took Fenghuang Yufei's magnetic card with a smile and put it in the row corresponding to the first place without hesitation.

Bai Xingjian and Feng Shiqi said "Thank you" to him one after another.

The singers in the various preparation rooms felt something was wrong after seeing this scene.

There are 6 magnetic cards at the bottom of the blackboard, corresponding to them respectively.

This means that after their performance, they will also have to come to the blackboard and post their predicted rankings?
By that time, if Duanmei and Mashen were still unsolved, they would have to put it on themselves!
The program crew is really good at creating show effects!

The singers couldn't help but sigh in their hearts.

After this segment, the camera cut back to the stage.

Under the control of He Ling and Hai Quan, singers in the online singer camp began to perform on stage one by one.

According to the draw order, Ding Xin was the first to go on stage to sing.

As an online singer who is very likely to be eliminated tonight, Ding Xin sang a song that is very suitable for her voice, temperament and style, "Brilliant".

The overall vocal range of this song is very suitable for Ding Xin, and her performance tonight did not disappoint the audience. The continuous high notes in the chorus and the sudden rise of several groups of five high notes were performed very well by her.

"Ding Xin's performance tonight really gave people a brilliant feeling of seeing the moon after waiting for a long time! It fits the title of the song she sang very well!"

"Yeah yeah!"

"Our sister Xin's strength has finally been brought out! Steady, accurate, and beautiful!"

"Before, I either made mistakes or was out of tune. It turns out that one has to push oneself a little bit!"

"Fourth? Sister Xin, are you so modest? You only predict a fourth place for yourself?" "That's too embarrassing! Even if it's not first, at least second place?"

"Hahaha, Sister Xin is scared by the recent rankings. She was sixth last week, and seventh the week before. Who can stand this?"

Netizens are discussing this hotly.

When predicting her own ranking, Ding Xin put her magnetic card on the fourth place row.

After her, Liao Bei took the stage.

As the "number one singer in mainland China", his strength cannot be ignored. As soon as he opened his mouth, he sang an A4-level high note, which stunned the audience.

However, Liao Bei has a habit when singing, which is that he likes to prolong the duration of a certain word. This also causes the audience to have a sense of déjà vu as if the video is being played at 0.75 times the speed when they listen to him singing a certain part of the lyrics, making it look like he is singing a vocal exercise song.

"Wow! Liao Bei seems to be playing it loud tonight! This high note is so stable!"

"I feel like this song sounds better than the CD. He is as steady as a rock! The God of War is back!"

"The skills, timbre, pitch, and emotions are all there, and there is no breathing sound at all. If this isn't the first, who else can be first?"

"Just praise me. Liao Bei's dragging sound is so long that it makes me physically uncomfortable. And it sounds better than a CD? Is there something wrong with my ears? Or is there something wrong with you?"

"That's right! His version of the arrangement is so slow that it drives me crazy. It's extremely uncomfortable for me to listen to. I muted the music halfway through. Liao Bei's performance is too oily!"

"Why do I feel like Liao Bei's songs are all in the same tune? He does have the technique, but it's like the product of a student's exam-oriented education."

"If the quality of a performance is judged only by its high notes, then the show "The Voice 2024" is definitely doomed!"

Netizens were divided on Liao Bei's performance tonight, with those who liked it thinking it was very good, and those who disliked it thinking he was good for nothing except the high notes.

During the prediction phase, Liao Bei stuck his magnetic card next to Fenghuang Yufei, which was the first place area.

……

The audience in Su Caitao's Xinghuo live broadcast room also had polarized views on Liao Bei.

"Stop arguing! Stop arguing! If you continue arguing, I will silence you all!"

Seeing that the argument was becoming more and more tense, Su Caitao also spoke up and rebuked.

"From my personal point of view, the Chinese lyrical music sung by Liao Bei is all in the same tune. He sings this type of song as if he is singing one song, because he only wants to express one point, which is the A4 high note, which is the best high note for Liao Bei."

"Although his high notes are indeed stable, brilliant and beautiful, other parts are a bit lackluster."

"Including this song tonight, Liao Bei has already sung three songs of the same type. To be honest, I am a little tired of listening to them."

"As for tonight's number one ranking, I think Phoenix Yufei has a better chance."

Su Caitao spoke slowly.

Many viewers in the live broadcast room immediately expressed their approval and said that she was their internet mouthpiece.

……

Studio scene.

After you finish singing, I will take the stage.

Soon it was the turn of the last online singer, Li Zijun.

Like Ding Xin, he is also on the verge of elimination.

In tonight's decisive battle, he challenged himself and stepped out of his comfort zone.

then,

Mistake.

"Oh my god! I endured everything while listening to music with headphones on."

"This broken sound... Li Zijun, is the kettle in your house boiling?"

"Zijun almost sent me away, but he sent himself away completely."

"Tonight's last place is definitely a no-brainer!"

As many netizens said, in the prediction session in the backcourt, Li Zijun had no choice but to stick his magnetic card on the seventh place.

"Oh, I'm a little nervous." Li Zijun smiled helplessly.

"It's already great!" Xiao Shen, the interactive supporter, comforted.

Li Zijun walked towards the singer's home rather lonely. The camera gave a close-up of his back and then cut back to the scene.

"At this point, all singers have finished their performances tonight."

He Ling said loudly: "Next, please ask the audience to make a stage selection from seven choices!"

"If you are moved by someone's performance, cast your vote for the corresponding singer!"

“Voting begins!”

The familiar voting background music sounded.

Soon, the voting ends.

He Ling glanced at the cue card and said, "Before announcing the final ranking, let's first announce the top three predicted by the public."

"Is everyone participating? If you participate and guess correctly, you will have the opportunity to come and watch the game!"

He Ling's voice was gentle and persuasive, and she raised her hand and pointed to a corner of the audience: "Over there, that's the netizen who made the correct prediction last week!"

"Everyone, can you please wave and say hello?"

Ten audience members with [SVIP] labels on their chests waved.

The screen was suddenly filled with comments like "envy".

"it is good!"

The camera cuts back to the stage, and He Ling continues, "In this final round of public predictions, the top three guesses are..."

"First place, Phoenix in flight."

"Second place, Vanxia."

"Third place, Shantimo."

As soon as the words fell, cheers broke out from the audience.

In the singer’s house, everyone was cheering and applauding for them.

"Next, please ask the notary to hand over the voting results of this hearing panel's top ranking competition, as well as the final voting results."

He Ling said loudly: "You are welcome!"

The notary handed two cards to He Ling.

He Ling looked at the two cards and then showed a rather surprised expression:

"Today we put the biggest suspense right at the beginning."

"Next, let's directly announce the result of the duel between Broken Eyebrow, Wei Zi and Fenghuang Yufei."

As He Ling finished speaking, there was an uproar at the scene.

During the preparation period, Feng Shiqi nervously grabbed Bai Xingjian's hand.

Bai Xingjian held her hand tightly.

"Tonight, if Fenghuang Yufei successfully maintains the ranking, no singers will be eliminated from the online singer camp, and everyone will have one more chance to sing."

"But...if Broken Eyebrow and Weizi win the top spot, then the singer ranked last tonight will say goodbye to us."

He Ling spoke slowly while holding the cue card. The camera was turned to Duanmei and Ma Shen. Both of them looked quite relaxed.

As for Li Zijun, he was also quite relaxed.

He's already ruined.

"So, who has more votes between Broken Eyebrow, Wei Zi and Fenghuang Yufei?"

He Ling said with a sense of suspense, "He is..."

He Ling's voice suddenly rose a pitch: "Congratulations to Duanmei and Weizi for successfully making it to the top of the list!"

There was another uproar at the scene.

Singer's House.

Broken Eyebrow and Ma Shen clapped their hands with a smile on their faces.

"Good!"

"That's good!"

Li Zijun smiled and applauded them both.

The same is true for Bai Xingjian, Feng Shiqi, as well as singers such as Ding Xin and Liao Bei.

The live broadcast room was also in an uproar at this moment, and the barrage of comments like waves was dazzling.

"exactly!"

"It's right that Fenghuang Yufei failed to defend the list!"

"That's right! Everyone should think like this. If Bai Xingjian and Feng Shiqi fail to defend the list, it means that Duanmei will stay in "The Voice of China 2024". What a great result!"

"What you said means that my Zijun was eliminated and I have to thank you Fenghuang Yufei?"

"Isn't that right?"

"Hahahaha, what you said is absolutely amazing!"

“But I have to say that Fenghuang Yufei was defeated but still won honor tonight. Even if we replace them with any of the online singers, they can’t beat Broken Eyebrow and Ma Shen’s “See You Again” tonight.”

"really!"
