Chapter 20 is another bestseller.
Yun Duo pointed at Du She triumphantly and said, "You listened to slander! It's fortunate you came here to sing; otherwise, your family fortune would have been squandered by you!"
Du She's face turned red with suppressed anger, but he did not refute her.
Chen Fan sent the prepared sheet music to the three of them. "The lyrics are divided. Huo Cheng will sing after the clouds, Du She will sing the high notes, and Ji Bai and I will each sing in the chorus and also be responsible for the harmony."
"Does anyone have any objections to this arrangement?"
"No!"
Everyone shook their heads to indicate that they had no objections, and then each person went to a room to practice according to the sheet music given by Chen Fan.
Three hours later, we returned to the main classroom for the first recording.
Five minutes later, after they finished singing it once, they were also dumbfounded.
Huo Cheng was so shocked he couldn't close his mouth for a long time: "This...this was sung by me?!"
Ji Bai paused for a moment, then said, "Chen Fan, you are really strong."
"But you should really tone it down in the future! You have no idea what people are saying about you behind your back!"
Chen Fan was quite pleased with Ji Bai's previous statement that the brat had admitted defeat; this could be described as an "epic" scene.
But the next sentence made his face darken.
"Oh, so you guys listened to others' instigation and came to target me."
Upon hearing Chen Fan's words, the expressions on the faces of the others became somewhat unnatural.
Dushe, being rather naive, bluntly stated, "You're only just finding out someone's stirring things up? You were so cocky the last few times! Do you even know how many people you've offended?!"
"One original song per episode!"
Before Chen Fan could even speak, Yun Duo rushed forward: "Du She, what do you mean! You have a problem with singing for me!"
"That's not what I meant! I—I meant!"
Du She blushed with anxiety again. Chen Fan realized something was amiss; this kid simply didn't know how to talk.
"Alright! Now that we've started talking, let's get down to business. I hope you guys practice hard; I don't want to be eliminated!"
"Dude, I'm going to keep disgusting Wang Junhai!"
As soon as Chen Fan said this, the others immediately nodded in agreement.
That evening, Chen Fan and Yun Duo went home, while the remaining three stayed in the classroom to continue practicing.
This is also why Chen Fan was willing to release the song; the three of them really worked hard.
The finals began the following day.
Tonight, the top twenty will be selected to advance to the national finals.
In addition, the players who were eliminated in the previous round will return to participate in the revival round.
The crucial moment to decide who will go to the national competition has arrived, and there simply aren't enough seats for all the fans at the venue.
A large screen was turned on outside the venue, and many fans who couldn't get in watched the live broadcast from the square.
"This live stream has specially prepared voting channels for each group, and each contestant also has their own dedicated voting channel. Viewers who like them can start voting now!"
After the host finished speaking, the first round of performances began.
The first group is the one that sang an original English song in the last episode.
This time, the opposing team expanded to a group of 5, and they still brought an explosive and dynamic rhythm, igniting the entire venue from the very beginning.
As expected of the opening show, this group had an astonishing average audience support rate of 93%!
What does this mean?
The concept is that the audience's liking for each person is extremely high!
The second group of four people had very distinctive voices, and their song selection was clever, allowing their vocal characteristics to be brought out to the fullest.
The average approval rating is also 90%.
The terrifying statistics continued into the third and fourth groups... and the atmosphere on the field became incredibly heated.
Two hours later, it was finally Chen Fan's group's turn.
Several people dressed in mascot costumes cheered each other on backstage.
"Go for it, 123!"
Five people took the stage, and a gentle piano prelude began, melodious and lingering.
"Cloud: If those two words hadn't trembled, I wouldn't have realized how much pain I was in. No matter how I said it, it was just breaking up."
As always, it was the clouds that led the way, and a somewhat bewildered voice sang this line, which evoked a sense of the passage of time.
Firefox: If you have no expectations for tomorrow, holding hands is like taking a trip. There are thousands of doorways, and someone always has to leave first.
"Mortal: Since you cannot linger in an embrace, why not enjoy it while shedding tears as you leave?"
"A silver tongue: Ten years ago, I didn't know you, you didn't belong to me, and we were still the same. I accompanied a stranger, walking through streets that gradually became familiar."
"Metronome: Ten years later, we're still friends, we can still greet each other, but with a gentler touch. There's no longer a reason to embrace; lovers inevitably end up as friends."
Several people sang in turn, and each person was assigned lyrics and music that suited their individual voices.
After the climax of their performance, the three singers would provide harmonies for the other two, creating an illusion of meeting themselves at different ages.
With its slightly melancholic melody, the song's sense of helplessness at inevitable loss precisely struck a chord with every listener.
I am no longer the child, the young person, the person I once was...
After the interlude, there is a stronger expression of emotion.
The listener was filled with mixed emotions.
This is how the live stream comments described the feeling: Before we parted, I really didn't know that your embrace was only temporary.
As the chat progressed, the focus shifted to Chen Fan:
"Waaaaah! How many sad things must Fan Ge have to write so many heartbreaking songs!"
"Isn't anyone curious? Tian Mingze is finished, but this guy's identity hasn't even been revealed yet!"
"+1! I'm just so curious, I definitely don't mean to send Brother Fanren a knife!"
"Me too! I want one too!"
"I definitely don't want to send them my fists, I'm just curious! [smiling emoji]"
On stage, the group of performers who had just finished their performance were stopped by Wang Junhai.
He was furious.
He went to great lengths to incite a few contestants, and finally managed to secretly gather a group of several unruly and flawed individuals into Chen Fan's team.
Who knows what kind of bewitching drug this kid gave them, but in just three days he managed to win them over.
Tonight's performance was such a success!
Just by listening to the screams from the audience, you know this song is going to be a hit.
No adjective could adequately express the rage in Wang Junhai's heart.
His prized student was imprisoned because of Chen Fan, but this kid can stand openly in the spotlight and receive flowers and praise.
This is not fair!
If his disciple suffers any injustice, Chen Fan must repay him a thousandfold!
The judges commented one by one, all praising the high level of Chen Fan's song creation.
Even Du She, who had been overlooked, was praised by Mr. Li Minghua: "I'm very happy to see the progress of each of you! The 'Three-Inch Tongue' contestant has made even more significant progress; keep it up!"
When it was Wang Junhai's turn to comment, his tone immediately shifted from ostensibly praising to subtly criticizing:
"Your technique is skillful, but your emotions are clearly lacking. You're singing other people's stories, not your own."
After the review ended, Chen Fan was so angry he laughed.
The cheers from outside the stadium could be heard even across the stadium. You call that a lack of emotional connection?
Wang Junhai astutely seized upon his smile and launched a targeted attack: "An extraordinary contestant among ordinary people, what are you laughing at? Are you dissatisfied with my comments?"
The audience members, with their experience, immediately raised their phones to record the event.
"Here he comes! Wang Junhai is picking a fight again!"
Chen Fan smiled slightly, seeing through Wang Junhai's pretense.
"No, it's just that such a subjective comment really reflects Teacher Wang's personality!"
With just one sentence, Wang Junhai's face turned ashen.
The audience, however, recalled what Chen Fan had said when he confronted them directly:
Is it a problem with the pronunciation, the vocabulary, or the transitions and connections?
"If neither of these apply, then I will not accept this low score."
This time, he used a different term, calling it "highly subjective"!
This sparked another wave of imitations online, with netizens arguing in the comments section, and halfway through the argument, they would throw in a comment like, "What's your relationship with Wang Junhai with your strong subjective opinions?"
The audience at the scene gave them 93.2% support for their song!
With all the judges giving full marks and the online support rates being almost identical, Chen Fan's group won first place in the group by a narrow margin of 0.2%!
Chen Fan's personal approval rating is undoubtedly number one across the entire internet!
Du She, with his "Three-Inch Tongue" (a nickname for a contestant), ranked 20th in individual support, barely making it out of the revival round!
With this, all members of Chen Fan's team have advanced to the national finals!
