The performance ended.
Suddenly, several of the female audience members stood up.
"I love you, The Clown!"
"I'll love you no matter how ugly you are!"
Applause was overwhelming!
Screams filled the air!
"This is great!"
"This song is so awesome!"
"This song is so good!"
"I'm ugly, but I'm very gentle?"
"I want to learn this song. I must learn it!"
"The Clown always surprises us!"
"Yeah, I thought that The Clown wouldn't be able to do well this episode. I've seen a lot of the previous analysis and industry insiders' comments. They all said that The Clown had performed too well and that the audience was no longer interested in him in the fourth episode. That was why it would get harder and harder for him to go further down the road. But after listening to it today, I find that to be complete bullshit! How could The Clown not be able to do well? You call that fucking not good? You call that fucking going downhill? "
"Each of his songs is better than the last!"
"The thing I admire most about The Clown is that every song of his is telling a story. Furthermore, it's telling the story of what's happening to him right now. His temperament is so compatible!"
"This is such a pleasant surprise!"
"Where did all these songs come from?"
"I don't know. Damn, who on earth wrote them for him?"
"Even if it's a songwriting master like Wang Zhuishu, who's at the judging panel, he can't possibly come up with so many earth-shattering songs in one go, right? Could it be that Wang Zhuishu, Zhang Ye, and a dozen of the most famous songwriters in the industry all fucking wrote songs for him? Or was it tailored to his identity and the environment he was in? That's impossible. If that's the case, then why hasn't anyone recognized him yet? "
"The Clown!"
"The Clown!"
"The Clown!"
The cries came one after another!
This old song by the famous Zhao Chuan from Zhang Ye's previous world, "I'm Ugly But I'm Very Gentle," had shocked everyone in the audience. A classic was a classic. This was a work that had stood the test of time and the market in Zhang Ye's previous world. If it was brought to this world, it would still shock everyone!
The host came up onto the stage.
Dong Shanshan smiled. "Let's welcome Marshal Persona onstage."
Marshal Persona walked up onto the stage and nodded at The Clown.
The Clown also nodded back at him in greeting.
Dong Shanshan looked at the guessing panel. "Guests, what do you think?"
Chen Guang said straightforwardly, "My eyes turned red just now. King of Masked Singers has been recording for three or four episodes now, but this is the first time I've ever heard my eyes turn red while listening to a song live. There's nothing more to say about that. This song really moved me. Marshal Persona also sang very well today, especially well. However, I can only use one word to describe The Clown's performance — perfect!"
Amy said, "Just now, Teacher Chen and Teacher Yao told us about it. They said that people like them who don't look particularly outstanding won't be able to survive in the entertainment industry. Although I think that Teacher Chen and Teacher Yao are quite good-looking, after hearing what they said, I still felt a lot of emotions. Let's not talk about it anymore, there's nothing more to say." She spread her hands and said, "It's just that I like The Clown so much that I can't even describe it with words!"
Zhang Xia analyzed it from a technical point of view and said, "Marshal Persona's singing is very good, and his technique is very comprehensive. I can tell from his voice that he has a very deep foundation. He should be a professional singer, and his status in the music industry should not be bad."
Marshal Persona chuckled.
Zhang Xia said, "As for The Clown, I really don't know who he is right now. There's no one I can match. When I listened to the song he sang today, it was a little different from his previous two songs. There were even some parts that a layman might think were flaws in. Tremolo? Cracked voice? But I don't think so! "
Wang Zhuishu said, "That's right."
Zhang Xia continued, "The way The Clown sang today was to use his emotions to drive the music. He sang with the most vivid emotions and told everyone what he was thinking through the music. As I said before, this is too high a level. This is not a level that all singers possess. This song is very difficult, not in terms of the high notes or other aspects, but in terms of the expression of his emotions. The subtle changes and handling of those emotions are too difficult. I personally believe that even if I were to sing this song, I wouldn't be able to sing it. There can only be two outcomes from singing this song. Either I sing it very badly, or I sing it very well. The Clown is undoubtedly the latter! Even the most picky person would not be able to find any fault with The Clown's song today! It's really good, it's really good! "
The Clown nodded in thanks. He subconsciously wanted to say, "You're flattering me," but when he thought about how he might say it with an accent and that it was a common saying in the Beijing area, he did not dare to say it out loud, afraid that he would be recognized.
Yao Jiancai said, "If I were to vote, I would also vote for The Clown. There's nothing more to say!"
The judges were done giving their comments.
Dong Shanshan then said, "Alright, then let's begin the voting."
The voting began!
The audience picked up their voting devices!
Marshal Persona looked at the audience, and so did the judges. Actually, no matter how much they said, it was useless. In the end, the audience still had to accept it. Just like Flowing Time, the judges thought that Flowing Time and Spinach's singing skills were about the same and the difference was not that obvious. But the audience did not see it that way. Flowing Time's final votes actually crushed Spinach's. The voting rights and decision-making rights were all in the hands of the audience!
But the moment the voting began, the conclusion seemed to have already been reached!
A lot of people exclaimed when they saw the real-time tallies on the big screen!
The Clown 10 votes.
Marshal Persona 1 vote.
And then.
The Clown 45 votes.
Marshal Persona 9 votes.
The difference was too great!
There was almost no suspense in this!
Finally, the final voting results were revealed!
The Clown's total: 377 votes!
Marshal Persona: 123 votes!
Dong Shanshan announced, "The winner of this group is The Clown!"
The Clown bowed in thanks.
Marshal Persona also applauded him.
The moment he got off the stage, The Clown was surrounded by people!
Xiao Lu was dumbfounded. "Teacher, you're so awesome!"
Dafei said sincerely, "You sang so well!"
At some point, Flowing Time had gone backstage and was nowhere to be seen.
Han Qi was extremely excited. "Teacher Clown! Why didn't you save this song for the next round? If you had this song, even if there were over a hundred Hokkien speakers in the audience, you might not have lost to Flowing Time! "She was happy for The Clown, but also felt that it was a pity!
This song was too good!
But what about the next round?
Flowing Time had already issued a "letter of challenge"!
Even if Teacher Clown performed well in this round, his chances of winning against the Hokkien singer Flowing Time in the next round would still not be high. In Han Qi's opinion, such a big trump card should have been saved for the very last round. She did not expect that Teacher Clown would use it in the first round!
However, Zhang Ye just smiled and did not say anything.
The next round?
He still had a song for the next round!
