On TV.
The Clown won by a narrow margin. The Yak lost by a narrow margin.
The netizens were debating endlessly.
"Is there even a need to think about it? It's definitely going to go to The Clown! "
"He only missed by a few votes?"
"The Yak's song pales in comparison to The Clown's!"
"Yeah, what are the live audience members thinking!"
"Even a fool can tell who's better or worse. The Clown even nearly lost?"
Then, the three contestants who entered the elimination round began battling it out.
The three contestants were King of Oddity, Sunset Glow, and The Yak.
This segment of the recording was completed after Zhang Ye left, so he did not watch it with his own eyes. Naturally, he was very interested and stared unblinkingly at the TV.
King of Oddity began singing.
It was still the same beautiful voice transition and rap. His performance was steady.
Then it was Sunset Glow's turn.
"Do you still remember what happened in the past?
"You and I held hands, living a family life.
"That year, we weren't even 18 yet.
"But we both knew how to speak our hearts to each other."
It was a love song.
It was a very slow and tasty love song.
In this second round of singing, Sunset Glow's performance was quite stunning. She did not use any high notes, not a single one, but she managed to sing the song into the hearts of many people!
The three contestants finished singing one after another.
Finally, the voting results were out!
Sunset Glow held on to the right to participate in the competition without any suspense, while The Yak and King of Oddity were eliminated!
"Take off!"
"Take off!"
"Take off!"
The live audience all stood up and shouted!
Chen Guang also stood up!
Amy also said excitedly, "Who are you!"
Dong Shanshan smiled and said, "You can choose to take off your mask or leave with it on."
King of Oddity smiled and thought for a moment. Then he pinched the mask in his hand and took it off in front of everyone's eyes.
When the TV viewers saw his face, many of them were dumbfounded!
Chen Guang was taken aback. "Little Pool?"
King of Oddity smiled and said, "Hello, Senior Bro."
Amy actually knew who he was. "Oh my God! Why is it you! "
Chi Yi! It was Chi Yi from the same entertainment company as Chen Guang!
It blew up online!
"Damn! It's our Chi Yi! "
"Why is it him?"
"He's a C-lister!"
"In the music industry, Chi Yi was a well-known figure. When he first debuted, he was called 'Pretty Boy'. He was also very handsome. At that time, he won the Best Song Award! His fame was limitless, and he could definitely be ranked in the top 30 in the entire music industry. But then, for some reason, he stopped releasing albums and switched to filming. Although he is still very popular in the film industry and is now a C-list actor, many people still regret that he did not continue to sing! "
"Why did he come out?"
"Chi Yi is back singing again?"
"You sang so well! You sing just as well as before! "
"Ahhh, my Xiao Chi!"
This was a very popular idol star!
Besides, Chi Yi was a C-list celebrity!
After recovering from the shock, everyone thought of one thing. For a former professional singer with such good singing skills and such high popularity, if it were any other singing show, she would definitely be left until the end. But on the stage of King of Masked Singers, Chi Yi was eliminated in the first round? Holy shit! Then what kind of f * cking people were the remaining masked singers! Thinking of this, the audience's curiosity suddenly exploded!
King of Oddity was actually Chi Yi!
Then who was the next contestant?
Who was The Yak?
The camera cut to The Yak.
Dong Shanshan asked, "You can choose to take off your mask, or you can …"
Before Dong Shanshan could finish, The Yak said, "I won't take off my mask."
The audience was taken aback.
Amy asked anxiously, "Why?"
Zhang Xia also advised, "I don't think it's a big deal. The person who takes off his mask is definitely not a loser. There are no losers here today, so we really want to know who you are."
Wang Zhuishu also said, "You sang very well!"
But The Yak did not say anything.
Dong Shanshan nodded. "Alright, we will respect your choice."
The Yak bowed to the audience and then left the stage with his mask and mystery on. Perhaps no one in the audience would ever know who he was.
The netizens were panicking.
"Take off your mask!"
"I'm gonna faint! Why isn't he taking it off? "
"He's leaving us in suspense!"
"Just who is this person?"
"Flips table! How infuriating!"
Everyone could only get anxious. If he did not want to reveal his identity, there was nothing they could do!
"It's time for the next round!"
"Right, it's time to fight for the title of Masked King!"
"Who do you guys think has a higher chance of winning?"
"Sunflower!"
"It must be Petal Shower!"
"Right, it's basically those two. Although I also like The Clown, his voice isn't at his best and is a little hoarse. Moreover, based on the audience's voting, The Clown is definitely out of the running."
"But why are there people saying that The Clown will be the first round's Masked King?"
"That's impossible."
"It's probably fake news, right?"
"He's already in this state, so how can he fight for the title of Masked King?"
"Yeah, it's still not certain whether he can sing or not."
…
At Old Rao's house.
Zhang Ye had already experienced the later rounds of the competition and knew how it would turn out. As such, he did not have much interest in it. As he watched, his eyelids began to struggle and he unknowingly fell asleep.
When he opened his eyes again, it was already the next morning. He was sleeping on the sofa with a blanket over him. It was daybreak. There were still birds chirping outside.
Zhang Ye sat up from the sofa and went to the bathroom. He felt much better. To be honest, Old Rao's medicine was really effective. He did not take it for nothing.
The door outside opened.
Yang Shu came back with some groceries.
"Senior Bro, you're awake?"
"Where did you go?"
"To buy breakfast for you."
"Mhm."
"Oh yes, there's also today's newspapers."
Zhang Ye was feeling pretty good. He had not acknowledged this junior sister for nothing. Look at her, look at her. "Where's Old Rao and Chenchen?"
"Master Rao took the child out for a morning exercise," Yang Shu said.
Zhang Ye nodded and casually flipped through the newspapers.
"Chi Yi takes part in King of Masked Singers!"
King of Masked Singers premieres! Chi Yi eliminated! "
"The Clown wins first episode's Masked King!"
"Wild Rose's search index explodes!"
"King of Masked Singers premieres a hit. Most discussed on Weibo!"
"Who is The Clown?"
"Speculations on Petal Shower!"
The newspapers were all filled with news about King of Masked Singers!
While eating breakfast, Zhang Ye browsed through Weibo online. It was only then that he discovered that the Internet was also flooded with discussions!
"This is so satisfying!"
"The first episode of King of Masked Singers was so fucking good!"
"I love Petal Shower so much!"
"I love The Clown so much, I love him to death!"
"The Clown is really awesome. That last song, 'Wild Rose,' really made me cry!"
"Me too. I'm a beautiful, beautiful wild rose. I've been bewitched by him. I've listened to it more than a dozen times. Every time I hear it, I cry!"
"It's such a pity for Chi Yi!"
"Chi Yi is very good and very popular, so how could he have been eliminated!"
"That coward The Yak! He doesn't even dare to take off his mask! "
"Yeah, he's such a scammer. I still don't know who he is!"
"When will the next episode be broadcast? Hurry up! I can't wait any longer! I still want to hear The Clown sing! His songs are really touching! "
"The next episode's Masked King will definitely be Sunflower!"
"Get lost, it's definitely going to be our Petal Shower!"
"Who's the most popular now?"
"There's a poll. The most followed person is The Clown."
"The Clown? He won by using a trick. "
"Bullshit. Go and have a look at today's Top Chinese Music Chart!"
Zhang Ye also went to search for it and discovered that on the most authoritative comprehensive chart in the music industry, seven of the top ten spots on the chart were occupied by songs from King of Masked Singers!
No. 10: King of Oddity, "Idiot."
No. 9: It's a new song by a big name in the music industry.
No. 8: Sunflower in the Starlight, "Like Smoke Like Water."
No. 7: Sunset Glow, "My Former Lover."
No. 5: The Clown, "Wolf."
No. 4: Petal Shower, "A Small Night."
No. 3 was Zhang Ye's "Super Star" for Spring Garden. It had been on the chart for a long time.
No. 2 was still Petal Shower's.
And in first place was surprisingly "Wild Rose!"
Even on the monthly Top Chinese Music Chart, even though "Wild Rose" had only been on the chart for a day and was only released last night, it still shot straight to the 11th spot!
It had only been a day!
It hadn't even been a day!
The song "Wild Rose" had already gone viral!
Zhang Ye was sitting at home eating when he suddenly heard a tone-deaf man's voice coming from the window. "I am a beautiful, beautiful Wild Rose. What a pity that the Heavens aren't on my side."
Someone could even sing it!
The speed at which it spread was obvious!
Even Zhang Ye himself had not expected that a relatively niche song from his previous world would have such a great influence and spread. This news was undoubtedly exciting for him. Looking at the news in the newspapers and the heated discussions on the Internet, Zhang Ye could clearly feel it.
King of Masked Singers was on fire!
