Chapter 65 Going through the back door

"Now it's time for our voting session."

After the review, Sanshui's passionate voice rang out:

"If you like the song "Moonlight over the Lotus Pond" and the group Fenghuang Yufei, pick up the voting machine and vote for them!"

“Vote now!”

As soon as Sanshui finished speaking, the number of votes displayed on the big screen behind the stage continued to rise.

The audience stared at the big screen excitedly and nervously.

In the preparation room, Wang Yaqi, Li Zhenxi and Lin Hailun held their breath and stared at the screen intently.

After a few seconds, the picture on the screen froze and an incredible number appeared in it.

718 votes!
There are 89 votes from the professional jury!
It surpassed GoldenCold’s previous 691 votes and successfully topped the list!

[Congratulations to the host and Feng Shiqi for getting over 700 votes for their stage! ]

[Task Reward: Blind Box of the Work*1, Attribute Points*6]

At this time, Bai Xingjian received a message reminder from the system.

Happiness came so suddenly that he was overjoyed.

The song "Moonlight over the Lotus Pond" is surprisingly so popular with everyone!
The comments were also very lively, with netizens expressing their thoughts one after another:

"Phoenix Yufei is number one, well-deserved!"

"Congratulations to Fenghuang Yufei for once again taking first place in the voting for 'New Era of Heavenly Group'!"

"No, today's competition hasn't ended yet. You Phoenix fans shouldn't jump to conclusions so early, okay?"

"So what if it's not over yet? I don't think the remaining groups are a match for our Phoenix Yufei."

"Okay, okay, you don't take our Thorn Boys Group seriously, right? Today I'll let you experience how painful it is to open champagne at halftime!"

"Besides the Thorn Boys, our Desert Brothers haven't appeared yet!"

"Desert Brothers? What kind of group is this? How come I've never heard of it?"

"You you you!"

War preparation room.

After seeing the results on the big screen, Wang Yaqi and Li Zhenxi's faces turned dark and their mood instantly fell to the bottom.

Fenghuang Yufei's achievements actually surpassed theirs.

And the difference in votes was nearly 30 votes.

"It's extenuating circumstances, it's extenuating circumstances."

Seeing Wang Yaqi looking unhappy, Li Zhenxi, who was the first to adjust, spoke to comfort her:
“Although there are few songs of this type, as long as they have the word ‘national style’ in them, they will definitely have a mainstream flavor, so naturally more viewers will vote for them.

Today’s competition is not about our songs or performances, but about Bai Xingjian and his team still knowing how to compete and coming up with a song with a main melody.”

Li Zhenxi said with some disdain, "Even so, they only got 27 more votes than us. If our song "Telephone Booth" today was a song with a main melody, our score would definitely be much higher than theirs, at least around 730 votes, or even more."

After hearing this explanation, Wang Yaqi nodded and said, "Yes, they used this kind of song with a main theme to compete, which is really unfair. We have no reason to be discouraged."

Lin Hailun's eyes on the side looked deep and distant.

Isn't it unfair for us to compete with a song written by two big guys, Chen Zhihong and Xu Weiwen?
Eh?
It doesn't seem like an unfair victory.

After all, we didn’t win.

……

"awesome!"

"Brother Yoyo, you are definitely the first today!"

"Indeed, 718 votes are the only combination with more than 700 votes so far!"

"Brother Yoyo is so talented! Can I make a date with you for a song?"

When Bai Xingjian and Feng Shiqi returned to the preparation room, many contestants greeted them enthusiastically.

The song "Moonlight over the Lotus Pond" is catchy and they all like it. Besides, Yoyo is very talented now, if we can get him to sing a song, it will be a great deal!
Bai Xingjian responded to these contestants with a smile, and also politely declined their requests to sing.

Now that he has finished singing "Moonlight over the Lotus Pond", he doesn't have many songs left, so what other songs can he invite?

"Sister Shiqi, your performance today was so beautiful. I feel like no other group can surpass you!"

As soon as she returned to her seat, Tang Tang started chatting with Feng Shiqi, and even changed the way she addressed her from "Sister Feng" to "Sister Shiqi".

She thought this would bring them closer.

Feng Shiqi raised her eyes slightly and replied with a gentle smile: "There are still a few groups that haven't performed on stage yet. No one knows what will happen next."

Tang Tang smiled and shook his head, saying excitedly: "The group that poses the greatest threat to us right now is the Thorn Youth Group. Looking at their outfits today, I have already guessed which song they are going to sing. Their performance is definitely not as exciting as that of Sister Shiqi and Brother Bai."

They are both a group, or more accurately, idol groups.

As a girl group, Galaxy Girls, and as a boy group, Thorn Boys, they basically know each other's works inside and out.

So sometimes you can guess which song the other person is going to sing just by looking at their outfit. This is a very common thing between boy groups and girl groups.

"Hmm? Tang Tang, you are so awesome?"

A strange color flashed in Feng Shiqi's clear eyes. She knew almost nothing about these things.

"Of course!"

Tang Tang beamed with joy after receiving the compliment. She pulled Feng Shiqi aside and began to tell her some of her anecdotes.

Bai Xingjian sat quietly next to Feng Shiqi and opened the blind box of the work he had received this time.

[Congratulations to the host for winning the song "Mountain and River Map"! ]

[The system is already the host...]

When Bai Xingjian saw the information displayed by the system, his eyes widened as if they were about to jump out of their sockets, and he was completely unable to conceal his inner surprise.

He wasn't like this even when he got "In the Name of the Father".

The reason is simple. He has no intention of singing "In the Name of the Father" in the short term.

But now this "Mountain and River Map"...

Chinese style rap...

The topic mentioned by the instructor today...

If the program team asks Sanshui to announce that the topic of the next live broadcast competition is "Chinese style" or "rap", or "Chinese style rap", will he sing this song "Mountain and River Map" or not?
"With my current D-level rap level, if I were to sing "Mountain and River Map", I'd probably have to stop halfway through."

Bai Xingjian secretly worried for himself.

The program crew must not mess around this time!

If this kind of topic comes up again, the audience will suspect that Bai Xingjian used a backdoor!

“Achoo…Achoo…Achoo!”

In the backstage center, Hong Yang sneezed three times in a row. He rubbed his nose, looked into the distance in confusion, and quickly typed a line of words on his mobile phone.

"Ji Qiu, you're not hiding behind your phone and cursing at me, are you? I took great pains to recommend two good talents to Yehua Entertainment, and you treat me like this?"

Far away in Beijing, Ji Qiu, who was in the office of the artist director of Yehua Entertainment, looked at the newly received WeChat message on his mobile phone with a puzzled look on his face.

"Weren't we just having a nice chat? I haven't even had time to thank you, but now I'm scolding you? What the hell are you thinking?"

Ji Qiu did not give in at all in his words and directly retorted.

The computer in front of him was playing the live broadcast of "New Era of Heavenly Group".

That’s right, Ji Qiu specially watched Fenghuang Yufei’s stage performance today.

Then, I was surprised again by Bai Xingjian and Feng Shiqi.

He raised his hand and patted his forehead, and said helplessly:

"If I had known that Bai Xingjian's creative ability was so strong and Feng Shiqi's singing skills were so good, I shouldn't have treated them as Tang Tang's friends. I should have added a few more zeros after the penalty!"
