The next day.
At the venue of King of Masked Singers.
The audience had all entered the venue. They had all bought tickets and were looking forward to the show, curious about the celebrities that would appear.
Following that, the mentors and guests took their seats one after another.
At the same time, the director took a deep breath and gestured to the staff. The live broadcast officially began!
[Wow, it's finally starting.]
[Look, that's Andy Lau! He's a guest!]
[F * ck, Jay Chou is here too. How generous.]
[Chen Xiaoyan is a mentor. She's so pretty!]
[Hahaha, it's so nice to have a pretty girl. This show is very humane.]
[Hahaha, isn't that Feng Xiaoxing? He's a laughing stock just by sitting there.]
[Wow, wow, wow. This show is going to be exciting.]
The audience in the live broadcast was very enthusiastic. At the same time, the audience in the venue exploded. They did not expect King of Masked Singers, who had kept a low profile in the first season, to make such a big deal out of it.
Many of the guests and mentors smiled and waved at the audience.
[Hahaha, it's just as I thought. Don't forget that this show requires a lot of big names on stage. Therefore, the status of the guests and mentors must not be low. Otherwise, how could they invite those big names?]
[Previous poster's analysis makes sense. This show has a lot to look forward to.]
[Wow, I'm looking forward to it even more.]
[Everyone, guess which singers will be going on stage.]
Apart from the live broadcast, the mentors and guests on stage were also chatting with each other. Apart from the singers they invited, they did not know who the others were inviting. Therefore, they were very curious. Perhaps their old friends would be among them.
The preparations were all in place, and everything was ready to go.
Various cameras surrounded the stage, providing the live broadcast audience with the most exciting all-round view.
The cameras in the air also gave them a panoramic view!
The lights on the stage flickered and suddenly converged. Countless beams of light shone on a door at the back of the stage. Then, the door opened and a slender woman in a red gown and a purple mask walked out. Her high heels clattered on the ground and soon, she was standing in the center of the stage.
The woman raised the microphone and said in a clear and gentle voice, "Welcome to Orange TV's mystery music show, exclusively sponsored by Everyday Donkey — King of Masked Singers!"
His bewitching tone caused the atmosphere to rise to another level. Many of the audience stood up, cheering and applauding!
After the advertisement, the woman suddenly put her hand on her mask and slowly took it off in a slow-motion manner. Bit by bit, her fair skin and rosy lips were revealed, followed by a beautiful face.
"Hello everyone, I'm your host, Luo Sisi!"
Such an opening immediately made the audience excited!
Wasn't the look under the mask the theme of King of Masked Singers? The audience was whistling.
"Wow, it's Goddess Sisi. She's so beautiful!"
"How noble. Ahhh, the most beautiful host."
"This program is interesting. It's so fun."
"Hurry up and start. Let me guess which celebrities will be there."
Backstage.
Ye Lingchen looked at the restless Su Mo and could not help but laugh. "Hey, I'm the one going on stage. Why are you so nervous?"
Su Mo rolled her beautiful eyes. "I'm just trying to help you get nervous. This is your first round. Are you really ready? "
"Yes, I'm ready." Ye Lingchen smiled, then took out a piece of paper and handed it to Su Mo. "Help me send this score to the accompaniment teacher backstage."
"An original?" Su Mo looked at Ye Lingchen in shock.
Since it was a new score, it must have never appeared before. Otherwise, why would there be a need to send it backstage?
"It's not an original. I just changed the score of a song," Ye Lingchen said calmly.
He was too lazy to compose. Moreover, it would be too high profile to release an original on stage. It would also make it easy for others to guess his identity. However, he felt that singing a cover of someone else's song was a little flawed. Therefore, he simply changed a song and felt comfortable singing it.
"That's still very impressive." Luo Sisi said in admiration, then immediately took the score to the tuner. As the tuner of King of Masked Singers, it was just a new score. It was not difficult at all.
The competition format of King of Masked Singers was divided into two rounds. The first round was a drawing of lots, which was divided into four matches. The top four contestants would advance to the next round. The second round was an elimination system. The four contestants would take turns to go on stage and the last contestant would be eliminated. After three matches, the champion would be decided!
Ye Lingchen drew number two and was the second to go up against number one.
At the venue of King of Masked Singers …
Luo Sisi's aura was full of vigor. She said at a moderate pace, "The first contestant to go on stage has a powerful and high-pitched voice. Let us welcome — Old Handsome!"
'Old Handsome?'
'Someone actually has the nerve to use that name?'
'Does wearing a mask make you look coquettish?'
The audience stared at the door curiously. Many of them burst into laughter and the judges began making guesses.
That nickname gave them at least two pieces of information. The singer was male and should not be young. Of course, those two pieces of information were useless as they would be able to tell when he started singing.
"I can vaguely guess who it is." Lau Tianwang could not help but laugh.
"Wow, he's here, he's here!"
"This style is really handsome."
"Hahaha, as expected of Old Handsome."
Luo Sisi stepped aside and quietly walked to the corner of the stage.
The first masked contestant went on stage. His mask was rather peculiar. It was an iron mask and his entire body seemed to be fully armored. No matter how one looked at it, he looked like an armored warrior. He took large strides and walked to the center of the stage.
"F * ck me, what the hell is that? Does he need to be wrapped up so tightly?"
"F * ck, heartless. That's cruel."
"There's no way to guess. Why didn't the show leave any hints?"
Many of the judges began to complain while the audience discussed among themselves.
Jay Chou rubbed his chin and began analyzing. "He's not tall."
The next moment, the lights dimmed and the discussions in the venue came to an abrupt end. Everyone's eyes were focused on the stage.
The music started playing. It was a very familiar melody, cheerful with a hint of playfulness.
It was just the prelude but many people's eyes lit up. It was that song.
'Old Handsome' closed his eyes and his entire body swayed along with the melody. It looked rather comical.
He looked like he was dancing, but his dancing posture was not very impressive.
After that, he raised the microphone and started singing.
"Follow me, we'll leave at dawn.
The dream has awakened, the heart is not afraid
There's a place, that's the happy old home
It's near the heart, but far away
Everything I have, just to find it
Even if I have to pay the price of sorrow
Maybe I'll cross a river of troubles
Tomorrow I'll be able to reach it
… "
