The top two in Chapter 114
The top two in Chapter 114
As Liu Siqi finished her performance, she received a very high score from the audience. Although the audience's votes have not yet been revealed, the enthusiasm of the audience suggests that it must have been a high score.
The host was also surprised that Liu Siqi could produce such a fine song in just one hour.
However, he was secretly relieved that Liu Siqi had a trump card; otherwise, he didn't know if the show would be bad or not, but he, as the host, would definitely be torn apart by netizens.
"Thank you, Liu Siqi, for singing such a beautiful song for us. I didn't expect you to have such a strong trump card. I hope you will continue to do well in the following competitions." After a few pleasant words, it was time for the next contestant to appear. "Next up is Shen Yuege, who will be performing a song called 'Singing on the Tree.' It sounds like an original song. Let's wait and see."
As the host's voice faded, Shen Yuege slowly walked onto the stage.
She changed into a fresh floral dress and walked onto the stage carrying a wooden guitar.
"This song is called 'Singing in the Trees,' and it's dedicated to everyone who wants to escape their troubles."
As rising stars, she and Liu Siqi share a common characteristic: they both briefly introduce a song before it begins, which greatly helps to connect with the audience.
As the words fell, the intro to the song began.
A light and cheerful prelude begins, like the sound of wind in the forest.
Shen Yuege's voice became playful and lively:
"I want to sing barefoot in a tree"
Many things have been shrunk.
If you don't want to let go, then just go.
Let the sun tan your face until it's bright red...
Her singing was relaxed and natural, as if she were really sitting in a tree, swinging her legs.
In the chorus, the voice is clear and bright like a spring:
"I want to sing while whistling in the tree"
Like a train heading towards a distant place.
It can pass through the cave so easily
The tree is still quite bare, do you want to come with me...?
The audience swayed gently to the rhythm, creating a relaxed and pleasant atmosphere.
Unlike Liu Siqi's previous style, Shen Yuege's song is a change in style, which effectively captures the emotions left over from the audience's previous song.
Shen Yuege's voice seems to possess a certain magic, allowing listeners to temporarily clear their minds and feel carefree after hearing her songs.
This is also why she became a superstar in just two years.
As the song ended, Li Sheng stood up and applauded again.
As a veteran musician who has been in the Chinese music scene for so long, he has seen all kinds of big events, but after coming to this program, he has stood up and applauded more than once in just a few hours.
Moreover, the applause was directed at Shen Yuege and Liu Siqi.
"That's fantastic! That song was sung so well!" Li Sheng said, clapping his hands. "This song perfectly captures the lightheartedness of a young girl, while also seamlessly connecting with Liu Siqi's emotions. I also give this song a 9.9 out of 10."
Another 9.9 points.
Lin Wanting and Chen Taisheng were both speechless.
If you give such a high score, how are we supposed to lower the score? Is this some kind of unfair game?
But there was nothing they could do; after all, Li Sheng was a top-tier figure in the music industry.
In terms of influence, the two of them combined cannot compare to Li Sheng.
At the same time, seeing the audience's reaction, they knew that lowering the score too much would cause public outrage, so they could only reluctantly give it 9.5 and 9.4.
The score was the same as the vote for Liu Siqi.
Next, it was the turn of the other singers to perform.
Zhou Ziming went first and sang a song from the company's inventory. The quality was average, and he scored 9.0.
Zhao Tianyu sang a love song and performed steadily, scoring 9.1.
Su Qing wrote a simple folk song on the spot. Although it was rough, it was sincere and scored 9.3.
Wang Wei sang an old song, which added to her appeal and earned her a score of 9.2.
Chen Haoran sang a rock song, which was very energetic and earned him a score of 9.0.
Lin Xiao attempted a musical excerpt; her technique was dazzling, but her emotions were lacking, earning her a score of 8.6.
Even so, it was only because Lin Wanting and Chen Taisheng kept adding points that the score was so high.
Because, according to Li Sheng, all of their scores were below 9 points.
The examples of Shen Yuege and Liu Siqi served as a direct deterrent to those who followed.
It's true that you can't appreciate the difference without comparison.
Finally, the audience vote results were also released.
Shen Yuege: 9.92
Liu Siqi: 9.91
Zhou Ziming: 9.2
Zhao Tianyu: 9.22
Su Qing: 9.31
Wang Wei: 9.2
Chen Haoran: 9.0
Lin Xiao: 8.8
Based on the final scores, Shen Yuege maintained her first place, while Liu Siqi even moved up one place to second.
Zhao Tianyu, who was originally supposed to be eliminated, actually managed to keep his ranking because of his outstanding performance in this round, and Lin Xiao was the one who was eliminated instead.
It has to be said that this result is quite dramatic.
Even the host found it somewhat ridiculous.
"Let's congratulate the singers above on successfully advancing to the next round, and at the same time express our regret for Queen Lin Xiaolin. We hope that she will have the opportunity to come to the 'Voice of Heaven' program again in the future."
That concludes today's program. See you next week!
With the host's words, this exceptionally long episode finally came to an end.
As the show ended, Weibo was flooded with various trending topics.
#LiuSiqiChasingTheLight#
#Shen Yuege singing in a tree#
#The Voice of China Behind the Scenes#
#Just what kind of deity is Lu Ran?#
#Who is the primary producer, Mingri or Lu Ran?#
It could be said that this program, which was originally designed to target Shen Yuege and Liu Siqi, actually helped them open up a much larger market.
At the same time, at the headquarters of Starlight Entertainment, the executive director smashed a cup:
"Useless! A bunch of useless people! They managed to turn a well-planned scheme around!"
Someone whispered, "Director, the main problem is that Lu Ran and that Mingri. They're too weird. Even our top producers would need a long time to create a song of this quality, but these two can just produce it so easily."
"Then make sure he can't produce it!" The director's eyes turned icy. "Investigate! Investigate his background! Investigate his weaknesses! I don't believe he doesn't have a weakness!"
"Furthermore," the executive director added, "the progress of our domestic animation projects is accelerating! I heard that relations with Japan have eased somewhat recently, and our domestic animation must be launched within a month! This time, we absolutely cannot afford to fail again. In the world of domestic animation, we must fight a resounding victory."
It was already late at night, but the lights were still on in Starlight Entertainment's office.
At this moment, Lu Ran was eating fruit while watching the program "The Voice of Heaven" in the hotel.
However, Lu Ran didn't care about the incident in between at all.
Adding a song at the last minute is like asking Tyson to box, Messi to play football, or Liu Xiang to compete in hurdles—it's just asking for trouble.
Just then, Lu Ran's phone rang.
It seems that Shen Yuege or Liu Siqi must have finished their competition and couldn't wait to share their joy with me.
Lu Ran picked up the phone, only to find that it wasn't the call he expected, but from Li Mo.
Why would Li Mo call me in the middle of the night?
I'm not a Sichuan native myself.
