Saturday.
At night.
The third episode of King of Masked Singers began airing.
After the accumulation of the first two episodes, the show's popularity was getting higher and higher. Many viewers who had not paid attention to the show before or were not optimistic about it were now attracted by the huge amount of topics. Furthermore, Li Yu had announced his identity before the recording for this episode had even started. Everyone knew that Li Yu would be taking part in the competition, so Weibo had been blowing up since yesterday. Today's official broadcast pushed the show's popularity to the highest point!
"It's starting!"
"I'm looking forward to it!"
"My Big Brother Li Yu!"
"Someone said that Li Yu was eliminated?"
"F * ck, you really believe that?"
"Haha, it must be fake."
"Even if Big Brother Li Yu can't become the Masked King, he shouldn't have been eliminated. Is he stupid? You actually believe that? "
"Yeah, there's no one on this stage that can eliminate a singer of Li Yu's level, unless it's someone like Zhang Yuanqi, Chen Guang, or Fan Wenli!"
In the end, when they saw Petal Shower emerge victorious in the battle between Li Yu and Petal Shower, a lot of people went crazy at that moment. They couldn't believe it!
"What?"
"Holy sh * t!"
"Petal Shower won?"
"This …"
"There's nothing to say about this victory!"
"Petal Shower must be on steroids today!"
"Uh, I think I just found out who Petal Shower is. There are at least two or three candidates!"
"Petal Shower sang so well!"
"Sunflower doesn't resent his loss."
Even now, no one believed that Li Yu would be eliminated.
Then, it was The Clown's turn.
"There's more to life than this?"
"Pfft, is this a slap in the face?"
"Damn!"
"Damn, this clown is too wicked!"
"Yeah, Li Yu has already lost, but he still added another stab?"
"Aiyo, this song makes me happy!"
"Do you have to be so ruthless?"
What they didn't know was that something even more ruthless was yet to come.
The Clown admitted defeat!
Many people were dumbfounded!
"Admit defeat?"
"What is he doing?"
"Heavens!"
…
Within the industry.
A certain record company.
Many people's expressions changed.
"The Clown is going to the elimination zone?"
"He, he's crazy?"
"He's not crazy. He wants to fight Li Yu!"
"That's crazy! He can't win! "
"Unfortunately, he won."
"How did you know?"
"There was already news from the industry yesterday. I heard that Li Yu was forced off the stage by The Clown without even taking off his mask!"
"Impossible."
"I don't believe it either. Is it fake news?"
"Haha, then just wait and see."
…
At a certain agency.
A lot of people were working overtime to watch King of Masked Singers. It was not that they were slacking off, but that this was the task assigned to them by the company's leaders. The show was no longer just an entertainment show up until now. It had become a trendsetter and reference material in the industry.
"When did such a person appear in the music industry!"
"Who is this clown?"
"Can you dig it out?"
"Impossible!"
"I don't even know who he is!"
"I've already contacted my friends at Beijing Television, but they are all tight-lipped and did not divulge any information at all. We can still make some guesses about the identities of the other singers and have a few targets in mind, but we don't have any information on The Clown at all! If you want to poach him from his previous agency, you have to know who he is first! "
…
On Weibo …
"I Really Hate You?"
"Li Yu is finally singing a Cantonese song!"
"Yeah, he's finally showing his trump card!"
"Haha, he's definitely going to win!"
"The Clown must be too confident and dumbfounded, right?"
"He sang well!"
"Yeah, Li Yu did well too!"
"Ah, it's The Clown's turn now!"
"What does this song mean?"
"Fuck! 'I Really Love You'? Is he going to pick a fight with Li Yu? "
"There's no such song anywhere! It's another fucking original? Where did he get so many original songs from! Who the hell wrote them for him? "
"Oh my god!"
"It's a Cantonese song!"
"It's a fucking Cantonese song!"
"The Clown and Li Yu are competing in Cantonese songs?"
"Heavens!"
"Has he gone mad?"
"When it comes to Cantonese songs, who can beat Li Yu?"
"Yeah, how many years has Li Yu been singing Cantonese songs? Why are you joining in on the fun? Isn't this a joke? "
"Stop chatting, hurry up and listen to it!"
"This song … this song …"
It was instantly quiet online!
A lot of people were dumbfounded as they listened to The Clown's performance on TV!
"This is great!"
"Damn, it's so good that I'm crying!"
"Please allow me to say 'I really love you'?"
"This singing, I'm going to fuck your lungs!"
"Th-This song is too awesome, isn't it?"
"It's time to vote!"
"He's won!"
"The Clown has won!"
"Li Yu has really been eliminated? Damn, I thought it was fake news! "
"Is The Clown even human?"
"There's really no suspense to his victory!"
"With this song, how are the others supposed to compete?"
"Could he really be a Hong Kong singer?"
"Uh, you live in the Northeast? On the Songhua River? He said that he's from the Northeast? "
"Pfft, you guys really believe that?"
"This fellow is full of lies!"
Weibo blew up!

From the fourth to the twelfth place, more than half of the songs were from King of Masked Singers.
Although Petal Shower had become the Masked King in the third episode, which was also the first time she had won the title of Masked King of Masked Singers, the number one spot on the Top Chinese Music Chart was still held by The Clown. Furthermore, he was way ahead in terms of the statistics. This song, "I Really Love You," even shot up to fourth place on the monthly chart on the second day. Meanwhile, the second and third places were also held by The Clown. They were "Wild Rose" and "Opera." They were both songs that had been on the chart for more than a week. Based on this situation, there was no doubt that "I Really Love You" would take first place on the monthly chart. It was even heading straight for the annual chart! Petal Shower also followed closely behind. No one on the entire chart was a match for the "masked" singers!
