Chapter 22: Chapter 22 Scoring Chapter 22: Chapter 22 Scoring “‘People Like ’ didn’t resonate as widely as ‘Heavenly Queen,’ which had a trendous impact in the past, so it couldn’t enhance the performance as much.”
“No one was as moved to tears as they were in the last episode, overwheld by intense emotion.”
Nevertheless, the song’s impact lingered for quite so ti.
*This was evident from the fact that the venue remained silent for over half a minute, with no sound.*
*After all, ‘Heavenly Queen’ was about soone else, about Wu Mu, and most people hadn’t experienced such fawning devotion.*
*The audience only felt the pain because they were drawn in by the song.*
*However, ‘People Like ’ was truly written for everyone themselves.*
*With the backdrop of real-life struggles, the song’s impact on everyone was anything but trivial.*
*If the show weren’t still being recorded, many might have felt the urge to get thoroughly drunk.*
After half a minute of silence, the audience below the stage gradually began to stir.
“Sigh, people like .”
“This song is so well-written, it speaks directly to my heart.”
“The singing is also incredible, Wu really has talent, it seems no matter what song he sings, he brings people into it.”
“Yeah, it may not sound like it’s full of technique, but it draws you into the emotion of the song with him.”
“The emotion runs so deep, he’s completely singing with feeling.”
*Quite a few people completely changed their impression of Wu Mu.*
*One might say Wu Mu just happened to fit this song, and he sang so powerfully because of personal experiences.*
*But now, it’s been two songs in a row, and in completely different styles, so attributing it to luck doesn’t make sense.*
*Considering Wu Mu’s level before his scandal, people actually started to wonder if he hadn’t taken it seriously before, relying just on his looks?*
*After all, for such a change to occur in such a short amount of ti due to just a scandal and a lost love seems too miraculous.*
The audience under the stage gave many favorable remarks about Wu Mu, but as soon as it ca to the scoring phase,
“Wu Mu’s final score is 643 points,” the host loudly announced Wu Mu’s score.
“Hey, you guys are being unfair, again just six hundred or so?” Wu Mu was speechless.
His anti-fans were remarkably persistent.
Based solely on the quality of ‘People Like ’ and his post-upgrade performance level, it was undeniably a standout stage performance.
Yet, this group gave him a score similar to last ti.
In fact, even slightly lower than last ti.
The reason was that this ti, there were thirty more people rating him with one star than last ti.
These were clearly his anti-fans.
The number of anti-fans among the live audience seed to increase this ti.
*These people enjoyed the performance passionately, then imdiately rated it poorly.*
*No matter how Wu Mu perford on stage, it didn’t affect their one-star ratings.*
*Of course it didn’t!*
*The anti-fans in the audience muttered to themselves.*
*Was the frustration of being emotionally betrayed so easily dispelled?*
*If Wu Mu just quit the industry and went silent, they might quickly forget and move on.*
*But Wu Mu’s presence was only growing stronger, a constant reminder of their emotional betrayal!*
*So what if he’s talented!*
“Ex-boyfriend” types are all the more detestable the more talented they are!
Wu Mu stepped off the stage, and his partner, Mo Mo, waiting among the contestants, shrugged with a “See what I an?” expression, “Mr. Wu, do you think we can take first place like this?”
They certainly couldn’t.
Unlike the previous episode, where Wu Mu and the others perford first and influenced all subsequent scores,
this ti, four groups had already perford and been scored before them.
In this round, Mo Mo scored 812 points, Wu Mu 643 points, totaling only 1455 points.
anwhile, He Jie, who went third, scored 738 points, with his partner scoring 723 points, totaling 1461 points, just enough to surpass them.
Currently, He Jie’s group ranked first, with Mo Mo and Wu second.
*This was only because Zheng Qiang’s partner was weak, scoring similarly to Wu Mu this round, or else Zheng Qiang’s group might have surpassed them.*
*As rounds continued, and once Zheng Qiang’s group strengthened further, or even if Zheng Qiang and He Jie tead up, their chances of winning would beco negligible.*
At the front, He Jie turned around to provoke, “Mo Mo, you should quickly seize this round to replace Wu Mu, and later, I won’t switch partners and will give you the opportunity.”
The veteran Zheng Qiang joined in, “Hey, don’t replace him. I’m still waiting for Little Mo to be eliminated so I can pull you in directly.”
Jokes aside, they were genuinely a bit impressed.
“We’re lucky so many people rated you one star, otherwise, based on your performance in these two episodes, you guys would have secured the championship already.”
*Even as top-level insiders, they were not confident about competing directly against Wu Mu’s recent live performances.*
*Although their singing techniques were definitely stronger than Wu Mu’s, singing the sa two songs would result in more technical flair and no vocal flaws.*
*But the competition wasn’t about singing technique.*
*In such audience-rated contests, the focus was on the overall sensory experience of the song.*
*Except for deliberately low-rating anti-fans, any regular audience mber moved by a song would certainly give high marks.*
Mo Mo also nodded and straightforwardly remarked, “*If scoring were fair, I wouldn’t have much confidence even against Wu Mu, as the quality of these two songs is just too high.*”
*As top-tier singers, they could easily see the quality of Wu Mu’s two songs.*
*These songs, without exaggeration, could each serve as a signature piece.*
*Even after many years in the industry, they hardly had many such high-level songs in their careers.*
After discussing Wu Mu’s performance, the competition continued.
The remaining two groups went on stage one by one.
However, their performances were noticeably lacking.
*After Wu Mu’s performance, it was inevitable that the audience’s standards would rise a bit; having heard such a great live show, naturally, their expectations beca stricter.*
*Had they followed Wu Mu like last ti, it would have been better, but this ti, they were the last two groups to perform.*
Finally, the last group to perform lost by a re two points, becoming the elimination group.
The lower-scoring contestants imdiately left the stage.
The higher-scoring contestants awaited the chance to be revived.
He Jie, who ranked first, did not choose to switch partners, just as he had said before.
Despite his complaints, Mo Mo, who was in second place, also didn’t replace Wu Mu during the partner switch.
Ultimately, it was Zheng Qiang who decided to make a swap.
As expected, Zheng Qiang’s forr partner could not compete in the PK match and, regretfully, left the stage.
*The format of the ‘Singer-songwriter Duo’ competition was simply too cruel, offering no rcy to low-level contestants, who were weeded out round after round.*
*Even strong contestants had to continually change partners under the pressure of winning the championship.*
*There was no staying with the sa partner and winning to the end.*
