With just one vote difference, Li Tiezhu lost to Yan Bing in PK, and both the audience on the scene and watching the live broadcast were stunned.
The pop-up screen was frantically trolling:
“What the hell? ‘Left Hand Finger Moon’ will lose?”
“Li Tie Zhu’s song completely suppressed Yan Bing’s new song!”
“Suppressing isn’t so much, but it’s definitely not inferior.”
Pay attention to the public number: the book lover’s base camp pay attention to send cash and point coins!
“Doesn’t the live audience like high notes? This treble is not good?”
“I have goosebumps and I lost as a result?”
“There’s one thing to be said for both of them, they both exploded today, there’s nothing wrong with whoever wins.”
“I still prefer Li Tiezhu’s song.”
“It’s not easy for Yan Bing to come out with a new song, Li Tiezhu has a new song for every period, and the audience’s expectations are not the same.”
“Upstairs has a point.”
“Look guys, Li Zijian is blowing it again!”
Li Zijian and Zhao Liya were waiting in the channel to perform on stage, Zhao Liya felt sorry for Li Tiezhu but didn’t show it, Li Zijian was different, with a puzzled expression.
“This is not scientific! The song ‘Left Hand Finger Moon’ is so difficult, Li Tiezhu finished it so well, but he didn’t win?”
Zhao Liya: “Teacher Yan Bing’s ‘Red Face’ is also very good.”
Li Zijian shook his head, “Both songs are good, but in terms of singing difficulty and completion, there is no doubt that Li Tiezhu is better.”
Zhao Liya: “Perhaps, many viewers thought that others would vote for Li Tiezhu, and they chose to support Teacher Yan Bing a bit. Just like last time when Li Tiezhu was seventh.”
Li Zijian came to a realisation: “Right! That should be the reason, after all, it’s rare for Yan Bing to release a new song ……”
On stage, Wang Hai’an was also a bit surprised by the result and asked Li Tiezhu: “Tiezhu, do you have anything to say about such a voting result?”
Li Tiezhu: “What?”
Wang Hai’an: “Don’t you feel aggrieved! Or, don’t you regret it?”
Li Tiezhu thought about it, not being able to enter the top three, there is no way to get the system rewards, it is indeed quite regrettable. Complaints are not so bad, after all, Yan Bing is also very strong, his singing style is also very characteristic, the song is also good.
Li Tiezhu: “Regret is a little, aggrieved is not, this stage without anyone can, but not without the audience. The audience is our bread and butter, since we came to this show, then their vote is the authority.”
He said it with sincerity, because that’s what he originally thought.
The audience sounded applause at the same time, even if some of them weren’t fans of Li Tiezhu, they couldn’t hate a simpleton like Li Tiezhu.
In the guest rest area, several other people were sorry that Li Tiezhu was eliminated and were discussing the fairness of the audience vote.
Mao Min: “This show has the most professional music team and singers, but the most unprofessional voting mechanism.”
Cui Ji’an attitude is diametrically opposite: “I recognise Li Tiezhu’s point of view, the show’s rules are there, and since you’re here, you have to respect them, including the audience vote. In fact, in the end, the audience and fans are our ‘service’ objects, their votes, on some level are rather more reliable than music critics and musicians, who follow their feelings.”
Mao Min nodded, “That’s right.”
Tenggor: “What you all said is wrong, what Li Tiezhu that Bean said is even more wrong, this is a variety show, it’s not a competition at all, it’s just fun! Let the audience look fresh and interesting, only then will there be ratings. Look, Li Tiezhu’s elimination is a great show! Now, the viewers are expecting me to help him create a miracle! Oye!”
Teng Shiyin: “Grandpa, can you be more reliable?”
Tenggol: “When I was young, I was known as the Reliable Little Langjun!”
On stage, Wang Hai’an nodded and asked Yan Bing, “What about Yan Bing, what do you think about winning the PK match?”
Yan Bing was still smiling so brightly, the same as when he was eliminated, because, he didn’t care about winning or losing, and he didn’t need others to judge his music.
He said, “It’s still very complicated, I feel surprised, but I also feel sorry for Tie Zhu. In fact, it’s impossible for ‘Left Hand Finger Moon’ to lose to ‘Red Face’, and Li Tiezhu won’t lose to Yan Bing, the future of the singing world belongs to him. Moreover, we all know that he was forced by me to write this song in haste, even so, it’s a top-notch piece of work, and the high notes are even so loud that it makes my scalp tingle! I believe that many viewers have completely fallen in love with this new song of his. So, Li Tiezhu didn’t lose and I didn’t win, it’s the fans who won a great song.”
Li Tiezhu: “Two songs.”
Yan Bing: “Really? What I wrote is not bad, right? Haha …… Thank you Li Tiezhu.”
It’s been a week and you’re still playing this stunt?
Wang Hai’an didn’t realise that Yan Bing was also a column blower, and had the intention of slowly looking up to Li Zijian as he said, “This is probably heroes who are in love with each other, isn’t it? But unfortunately, the show’s competition system is cruel, congratulations to Yan Bing for entering the third place, Li Tiezhu is temporarily in the elimination zone.”
Yan Bing: “It’s okay, Tie Zhu. There are other ways to get your face back!”
Li Tiezhu was bewildered: “What way? Withdraw from the tournament?”
If you lose, then you lose, what face do you need? Am I Li Tiezhu a person who wants face? I’m not afraid to say that I’m not good at losing face!
Li Tiezhu is so plain, because, he didn’t understand the race system ……
Yan Bing: “This …… poof …… box box box box ……”
Withdrawal?
The audience on stage also laughed, this is whipping, right?
Wang Hai’an raised an eyebrow in shock and hurriedly rounded up, “Not so much! Tiezhu still has a chance, Yan Bing means, the next round with the guest chorus, you still have a chance to kill the top three.”
Li Tiezhu was puzzled: “Really?”
Wang Hai’an was even more shocked, “Didn’t you understand the competition system? Director Hong told you once, and I just told you again.”
Li Tiezhu: “How could I possibly understand?”
Justified!
Pop-up screen:
“How could Li Tiezhu possibly understand the race system?”
“I’ll go, Buddha!”
“There’s still a chance to sing first in the next round.”
“Tenggol drew Li Tiezhu ah, and sing ‘Itchy’!”
“Then it’s over.”
“And ‘Itchy’ doesn’t have a backing track.”
“Teng Geer learnt it now, I don’t know if he’s learnt it yet.”
“Li Tiezhu stops here, right?”
“It’s over, can’t hear his second new song.”
“Regret ……”
Yan Bing led Li Tie Zhu off the stage back to the lounge, and the stage was handed over to the host, Wang Hai’an.
After Yan Bing’s explanation, Li Tiezhu realised that he still had a chance to turn the tide, that he still had to work hard, after all, it is certainly best to take the system rewards.
Sitting in the lounge, Li Tiezhu said with a naive face, “I hope to meet a familiar guest, a familiar song.”
Pop-up screen:
“You should be familiar with this guest!”
“It’s the grandpa you slaughtered for shabu shabu.”
“The old demon with the voice of steel.”
“The songs are also familiar.”
“Familiar to the point of not being familiar.”
“Laughing to death …….”
“Li Tiezhu is so miserable this issue!”
“So many serious guests, and he chose to draw Tenggor ……”
“It’s hard to say.”
“I’m kinda looking forward to it.”
“I hope Mr Tenggol sanctions Li Tiezhu musically.”
“It doesn’t matter if Serious Brother wins or not, as long as I’m happy.”
“Thank you Li Tiezhu.”
The second group of singers PK, Li Zijian won over Zhao Liya with an absolute advantage.
In the third group of singers PK, Han Hong defeated Chen Jing Yi.
The show went into an intermission, thirty minutes, reserved for singers and guests to meet, form teams and briefly bond.
In the singers’ lounge, Hong Bo repeated the same trick: “The results now, Han Hong, Li Zijian and Yan Bing are in the championship zone, Chen Jing Yi, Li Tie Zhu and Zhao Liya are in the elimination zone. If the singers in the elimination zone, together with their guests, get the first vote in the next round, they will advance to the contention zone. So, do you guys want to know your co-operation guests?”
The singers are collectively silent and very silently sanction Hong Bo.
Hong Bo: “Mr Han Hong, are you curious?”
Han Hong: “I’m not curious, none of us are… If the guest doesn’t come out, let’s fight the landlord? I have cards in my room.”
Li Tiezhu volunteered, “I’ll go get them.”
Hong Bo blackened his face, “Li Tie Zhu you sit down, I’m going to ask the guest to come out. You are eliminated from the area, aren’t you curious about your guest? Whether you can win or not depends on the guest!”
Li Tie Zhu: “I don’t particularly want to win.”
Hong Bo: “……”
Li Tiezhu: “The Voice won a reward of one million it, you now this show just deal a card card, who has the motivation ah?”
Li Tiezhu did not lie, he just craved that reward, however, now he is not poor IQ value, also not poor money, motivation is seriously insufficient.
Li Tiezhu’s partner Liang Tianyi also said, “That’s right, brokers don’t have rewards either!”
Li Zijian: “No problem! This show’s rewards are too low to be interested in winning, we’re all having fun.”
Yan Bing: “Fun.”
Hong Bo wanted to create suspense, but froze and was turned into a farce by Li Tiezhu, and couldn’t hold on any longer, so he could only say, “Teacher number five come out! He is Li Tiezhu’s co-operative guest.”
The group of singers and co-partners who said they were not curious, looked at the door.
Only to see, a bald head emerged from the doorway, looked at it, and then numbly drilled in, walking with a bouncing old man.
Everyone stood up to greet him, this one was of old standing.
After welcoming Tenggol, Han Hong couldn’t help but ask, “Why are you here?”
Tenggor: “I came to sanction Li Tiezhu!”
The crowd laughed.
Yan Bing: “Then you are too late, he has already been sanctioned by me.”
Tengor: “That doesn’t count for you, look at the song I chose, Itchy plus Mango. Yaya this song is well written, I like it.”
The guest has the right to adjust the song to be sung.
“Ah, this ……”
Zhao Liya was quite familiar with him because this old man often went to steal her grandfather’s flower carvings. However, in the face of the other party’s praise, Zhao Liya wasn’t happy at all, it was not easy to write a good song and it was about to be ruined.
The rest of the singers were dumbfounded, did Teacher Teng give up on his treatment?
Tenggor looked at Ya Ya, ”Excited, right? Didn’t think I would cover your song, did you? Isn’t it an honour?”
Zhao Liya covered her face, “Not really! I want to be quiet.”
Li Tiezhu reacted a few beats slower and only then said, “That’s not right! Didn’t you call before and say that you’re on ‘The Masked Singer’? You this ……”
Tenggor: “It’s called a soldier’s not afraid of deception! Grandpa sings with you, happy?”
Li Tiezhu: “Not happy, I feel like I’m going to finish!”
Li Zijian and Yan Bing tacitly said in unison, “Finish! The calf! Zi! La–”
Song Zhu’er didn’t know much about music, she only knew that Tenggol was a very well-known singer and a thief who could drink, she innocently asked Tenggol, “Boss, if you help Tiezhu to succeed in his rebellion, I’ll even treat you to a hotpot.”
Tenggor smiled, “Hey …… or I will treat you to shabu shabu.”
