He left the stage.
The Clown walked out of the studio amid the cheers of the audience.
Han Qi was almost jumping up and down. "Teacher! That song was great! "
With today's performance over, Zhang Ye could finally speak freely. "It was alright, I did alright." He was quite satisfied with it.
This song was actually not easy to sing. Some of the songs that had a high pitch were actually easier to sing than this song. But the high pitch of this song was not obvious and there were not many ups and downs, so it was actually very difficult to sing it. It was a test of skill.
This was a song that did not exist in this world, but in Zhang Ye's previous world, it was quite famous. It was Cui Jian's "Fake Monk," an old song from several decades ago. In the rock and roll world and music world, this song had a very high status and was known by almost everyone back then. Even later on, there were still people who would perform this classic song on various variety shows and singing programs. For example, Tan Weiwei had sung it before, Zhang Yu had sung it before, Zhang Xinzhe had sung it before, and even Yu Qian had sung it before. This showed the status and charm of this song in the hearts of the people of that era.
Zhang Ye also liked "Fake Monk." The original version of "Fake Monk" was accompanied by folk music. There was a good review that said that "Fake Monk" was going against tradition under the banner of tradition. That was why there was such an accompaniment. Zhang Ye also retained this arrangement and added some of his own understanding into it to present this song onstage.
On the way back to the waiting room.
The program team staff were constantly giving him a thumbs up.
Some of them even came up to him and asked for a photo.
"Teacher, let's take a photo."
"Take a photo with me, Teacher Clown."
"I like you so much!"
"Today's song was really good!"
This song touched a lot of people, especially some of the older ones. They could feel so many emotions from the song!
Thinking back to the songs that The Clown had performed in the program team, everyone could not help but want to vomit blood when they thought about it!
How glorious was it to be an oil worker?
A 50-year-old driver with a smile on his face?
Bullshit!
That was just pretending!
This was the real Clown!
Today, this was the real Clown!
Zhang Ye took pictures with the staff one by one. Not far behind him, the singing of Sunflowers in the Starlight could be heard. It seemed like he had made a bad choice today as he did not bring out his greatest advantage.
"In this boring world."
"What can I do?"
"Vastness, loneliness, companionship."
However, many of the audience were still convinced and were guessing Sunflower's identity.
Zhang Ye was not considered a person of this world, so he was not that familiar with it. As such, he decided not to make any guesses. At the very least, he felt that there was an 80% chance that he and Sunflower did not know each other. But since they were both wearing masks, that might not necessarily be the case. Zhang Ye did not dare to confirm this point.
…
Ten minutes later.
"We are."
"In the wind, dancing."
Sunset Glow also ended her performance.
The applause was warm!
The exclamations of the audience rose and fell!
At this moment, Dong Shanshan came on stage. "Could The Clown and Sunflower in the Starlight please return to the stage?"
Sunflower had been listening to Sunset Glow sing below the stage, so he quickly walked up to the stage.
The Clown walked over from the lounge, so he was a little slower.
As Sunset Glow was the last to perform, the judges gave her their comments first.
Zhang Xia said in surprise, "I'm starting to feel that Sunset Glow's singing is amazing. Sunset Glow performed really well today. I had a great time listening to both songs!"
Sunset Glow smiled. "Thank you, Grandma Zhang."
Wang Zhuishu also agreed. "Sunset Glow is the type of singer who takes her time to warm up. Her voice is a little quiet and gentle. At the beginning, you might not think much of it, but the more you listen, the more you are shocked. She really sings to the heart and is very good. Today, I also gained a new understanding of Sunset Glow. She's definitely a professional singer!"
Chen Guang also said, "Sunset Glow's weapon is not her high pitch, but her emotions and delicateness. It's rare to see a singer of her caliber in the music industry."
Amy stared hard at her. The more she looked at her, the more familiar she felt. "Do we know each other?"
Sunset Glow smiled. "Make a guess."
Amy nearly fainted. "The problem is that I can't guess!"
The audience laughed.
Yao Jiancai could tell and said in amusement, "From what she said, I think the two of you must know each other, Amy."
Amy said, "Actually, I already have a candidate in mind, but I can't be sure!" She stared at Sunset Glow and said, "Are you the person I'm thinking of?"
Sunset Glow shook her head. "I don't know who you're thinking of."
Amy looked at her and said, "I'm very familiar with that person, so familiar that we wear the same dress. But that person's voice doesn't seem to be as low as yours, and the style of the song they sing is also different. Did you deliberately change the register of your voice?"
Sunset Glow did not answer her. She just laughed.
Amy immediately said, "This won't do. I have to give her a call and see if she'll pick up!"
Then Amy took out her cell phone on the spot and dialed a number.
Du du du.
Du du du.
It rang five or six times.
Amy put down her cell phone in shock. "She didn't pick up! Damn, you can't really be her, right? "
Zhang Xia laughed and said, "Stop talking in riddles. Just who is it?"
But Amy did not say.
Then it was Sunflower's turn.
Chen Yidong was still praising him. He had great respect for Sunflower.
But Zhang Xia said, "Sunflower sang well as usual, but I might have to reserve my opinion on the song selection today."
Sunflower smiled and nodded.
Amy analyzed, "Judging from his accent, he sounds like a Hong Kong singer."
Wang Zhuishu said, "Right, I think so too. There's a 70-80% chance that it's him. Although his accent isn't too obvious, it's very difficult to change the pronunciation habits of Taiwanese and Hong Kong singers."
Amy asked him directly, "Are you a Hong Kong singer?"
Sunflower's changed voice rang out. "The director doesn't allow me to say."
The contestants' answers were very conservative. They did not want anyone to know who they were.
Finally, the topic shifted to The Clown.
Dong Shanshan asked, "Do any of you teachers have anything to say about The Clown's performance?"
Chen Yidong said, "There's nothing much to say. I'm just convinced by him!"
Wang Zhuishu gave a wry smile and said, "He's definitely a talented singer! The two songs today had good lyrics, good music, and even better singing. There's nothing to pick out about it! It's amazing! "
Amy hurriedly said, "Teacher Clown, just which senior are you? Can you stop teasing us? Hurry up and tell us! "
The Clown smiled.
Amy quickly said, "Then can I ask you a question?"
The Clown thought for a moment before nodding.
Amy pointed at herself. "Do we know each other?"
The Clown hesitated for a moment before nodding slightly.
"We know each other!" Amy scratched her head. She was going crazy. "Just who are you!"
Chen Guang hurriedly asked, "Do we know each other?"
The Clown coughed and nodded again.
Chen Guang was also going crazy. "Among the people I know, there's no one with a style like yours! I'm pretty familiar with the mainland singers, but there are some people from Hong Kong and Taiwan that I don't know. Could you be a Hong Kong singer? "
Zhang Xia waved it off and said, "That's impossible. How could that be possible with that accent?"
Chen Guang said, "Maybe he's deliberately hiding his accent?"
Amy also said in surprise, "Yeah, maybe he's really from Hong Kong? We all know each other, but we might not be that familiar with him? "Then she asked The Clown," Are you a Taiwanese celebrity? "
Wang Zhuishu said, "Where are you from?"
Chen Yidong also said, "Yeah, where are you from? Can I ask that? "
The audience was also staring at The Clown. They all wanted to know!
Dong Shanshan was just about to help The Clown fend them off.
But to everyone's surprise, The Clown picked up the microphone at this moment and started singing in Cantonese with a voice that had changed his voice!
"My hometown is right here in this village!
"I was born and raised in this village!"
Everyone in the audience was floored!
But The Clown was getting more and more animated as he sang.
"Don't be fooled by how small the village is. There are mountains, rivers, and forests.
"The neighbors are all very harmonious, and the young and old are very sociable.
"A lot of things have happened in this village.
"Thinking back on it, it's really funny.
"My friends, if you're interested, I can introduce you to the people in our village!"
Amy burst out laughing!
Chen Guang was floored!
Zhang Xia, Yao Jiancai, and the others were cramping up from laughing!
Petal Shower, who was standing next to them, was also shaking her shoulders. She was clearly laughing!
Your hometown is right here in this village?
Is there a fucking village in Hong Kong?
Get lost! Hurry up and get lost! Who wants to get to know you people from this village!
Besides, isn't your Cantonese a little too substandard, bro?
The audience was also rocking back and forth with laughter!
"Aiyo, I can't take it anymore!"
"Does he really know how to speak just by opening his mouth?"
"I'm dying of laughter, hahahahaha!"
"Bro, why are you pretending to be a Hong Konger!"
"Pfft! I can tell that you're from a village just by looking at you! "
"Why is The Clown so funny!"
"Who the hell is he?"
"I don't know!"
The program team staff were also amused. They thought to themselves that they hadn't heard him sing "Fifty Years Old Driver's Smiling Face" before. This person was just like an old cannon. He was too good at pretending! Earlier, he was pretending to be a worker, and now he's pretending to be a Hong Kong or Taiwanese compatriot?
Zhang Xia laughed and said, "He's definitely not a Hong Kong singer!"
Amy was convinced. "Senior, don't pretend anymore. Really, don't pretend anymore!"
Yao Jiancai said in amusement, "If this accent belonged to a Hong Kong singer, I would even dare to go to Australia to sing tomorrow! Your Hong Kong accent is too much! "
Amy laughed, "Hahahahaha!"
Chen Yidong said, "This personality of his makes me even more confused!"
Amy laughed and said, "Yeah, it's even harder to guess who he is!"
The Cantonese version of "Our Village People" from Zhang Ye's previous world tickled the guests and the audience!
Finally, the voting segment began!
The audience picked up their voting devices.
"The Clown!"
"The Clown!"
"Sunset Glow!"
"Sunflower!"
A lot of people were shouting the name of their favorite singer.
Then, when the guests and contestants saw the real-time voting results on the big screen, they couldn't help but smile wryly. Right from the beginning, the difference in the votes had widened!
The Clown was far ahead!
Finally, the results were out!
Sunset Glow: 142 votes.
Sunflower in the Starlight: 101 votes.
The Clown: 257 votes!
The second episode's Masked King was out!
It was still The Clown!
The Clown retained the throne of Masked King!
The audience erupted in cheers!
The guests also stood up to give him their applause!
