Saturday.
On the day of the finals.
It was only 3 or 4 PM in the afternoon, but there was already a long line of people waiting outside Beijing Television Station. Some were giving out mineral water, some were giving out clothes, and some were giving out LED boards. It was very orderly. They were all starting to prepare for the singer they supported tonight!
"Where are Teacher Shi Guang's fans?"
"Gather here!"
"Petal Shower's fans, come quickly, we have clothes to distribute!"
"Everyone, dress up and support Little Dusk (Sunset Glow)!"
"Are there any fans of Teacher Clown? You can get free mineral water here! "
"King of Oddity still has three LED boards. Who's sitting in the front row? Those who are sitting in the front row can claim it. The camera over there can capture it clearly. Those in the back row don't have to claim it. "
"King of Oddity said on Weibo that if he can get into the top three today, he will give his fans an autograph after he leaves the stage. Everyone will get a copy!"
"Ah? Really? "
"How many do we have to sign?"
"Teacher Flowing Time also said that if he were to become the grand champion, he would bring forward the release of his new album and meet everyone this week so that everyone can vote for him!"
"I've already told my family to vote for Shi Guang tonight!"
"Sunset Glow is also canvassing for votes in advance. She started a lucky draw on Weibo the day before yesterday! That's how I got my ticket. Someone even got the latest laptop! "
"The celebrities are putting in a lot of effort!"
"Yeah, the singers are all canvassing for votes."
"Only The Clown's Weibo has no activity. He hasn't posted anything!"
"Damn, why isn't Teacher Clown canvassing for votes?"
"Who knows?"
"Everyone says that he's not that famous, and the guest he invited is an unknown newcomer. Why isn't he anxious? The more it's like this, the more we should canvass for votes in advance! "
At the live broadcast venue.
The internal department was in a state of chaos.
"Confirm the equipment again!"
"There's a problem with Plane 5!"
"Equipment team, hurry up and handle it!"
"Three more hours!"
"Are the singers and their guest partners all here?"
"Everyone's here. We're just missing The Clown's guest partner!"
"Wild Rose isn't here yet?"
"Not yet."
The singers had all arrived early, and so had the guests.
However, The Clown's guest partner was an exception. Logically speaking, such an important live broadcast would definitely require him to be present in advance, but Wild Rose was nowhere to be seen. She was the only one missing.
Han Qi quickly found The Clown. "Where's your partner?"
The Clown calmly said, "She has a lot of things to do, so don't worry."
Han Qi didn't know whether to laugh or cry. "You really can sit still. Why don't you call and rush them? It hasn't been that long. "
The Clown shook his head. "No need."
He understood Old Zhang. Old Zhang was the same kind of person as him. Since she had agreed to do something, she would definitely do it well. So there was no need for her to rush her. After knowing each other for so many years, he still had that bit of trust in her.
Over there.
Both Flowing Time and King of Oddity heard about this.
Flowing Time asked, "Only The Clown's partner isn't here?"
Shi Guang's partner sneered, "So arrogant? There's going to be a rehearsal soon. Are we all waiting for her? "
In a room next door.
King of Oddity was not too happy either. "So what? Shall we rehearse first? "
The program team staff said, "Let's not wait any longer. Let's start the lottery first."
King of Oddity's partner smacked his lips. "These newbies are too unruly!"
Just as he finished speaking, the program team received a message: Wild Rose had arrived!
The rehearsal was beginning!
Actually, it was not really a rehearsal. They were just going through the motions to find their positions, such as which cameras were where and where they would stand when they got onstage. They had to go through the motions.
The contestants and their partners immediately gathered by the side of the stage.
When Zhang Ye saw Sunset Glow, Petal Shower, and Spinach, he nodded to them in greeting. Then he looked at the partners beside them. Although they were all wearing masks, some of their silhouettes looked very familiar. The other contestants and partners were also greeting each other and scrutinizing each other. Zhang Ye was naturally one of them. Many of the contestants and partners were sizing him up.
Then, Wild Rose arrived late.
Flowing Time's partner glanced at her and shook his head slightly.
Petal Shower looked at Wild Rose and blinked.
Even though she was late, Wild Rose did not look timid at all. Instead, she smiled openly and said, "Sorry about that. There was a traffic jam on the way here. Let's get started."
Dafei said, "Alright, everyone's here. Let's start the rehearsal!"
Sunset Glow and her partner also looked at Wild Rose with speculations in their eyes.
Was she really a newcomer?
It didn't look like it!
Why does this voice sound so familiar?
Or did he deliberately change the pitch of his voice?
If he was really a newcomer, why would he deliberately change his tone? Was she afraid of being recognized?
…
The sky gradually darkened.
The time of the finals was getting closer and closer.
Zhang Ye's parents and a few of his relatives had also come to the venue. They were queuing up with their tickets in hand. The security check at the gate in front of them had already begun.
His mother exclaimed, "Why are there so many people?"
His eldest younger sister laughed and said, "It's the King of Masked Singers finals, and it's even a live broadcast. There will definitely be a lot of people watching."
His third sister shouted, "Let's go ahead. We can't wait!"
Third Uncle said, "What's the rush? We'll definitely get in."
Third Aunt said, "The seat can't run away, let's just wait."
Today, almost all of Zhang Ye's family had come. If not for Zhang Ye's grandpa and grandma's weak legs and high blood pressure, they would probably have come as well.
Not far away, Ha Qiqi, Zhang Zuo, Little Wang, and the others were also queuing up.
"It's so hot!"
"It's still not our turn?"
"The security check is too slow."
"Let's just wait patiently. If it weren't for Director Zhang, we wouldn't even have gotten the tickets. How many people would be able to watch the grand finals live? We're already very lucky."
This was the grand finals of King of Masked Singers!
It was also a grand event for the music industry and television show industry!
The eyes of the industry insiders, the entertainment industry insiders, the entire country insiders, and even the relevant authorities were all focused on this event tonight!
…
At Zhang Ye's maternal grandma's house.
His grandpa and grandma turned on the television.
"Has it started yet?"
"Not yet."
…
At his aunt's house.
His cousin and her best friend who ran an online store were already waiting in front of the television.
"Who do you like?"
"I like all of them."
"I like The Clown, hehe."
…
Peking University.
Many of the Peking University students who hadn't gone on holiday were using the internet to log into the live broadcast channel in their dormitories. Some of the students even brought their televisions back from somewhere and hooked them up to the signal to watch the live broadcast.
"It's starting soon!"
"Hurry up and call for everyone!"
"I have a television in my dormitory. Whoever wants to watch it, hurry up!"
"This is a show that our Professor Zhang has planned, so we must support it!"
…
The audience entered the venue!
The stage was in place!
The countdown began!
It was getting more and more lively online!
"There's only one show tonight — King of Masked Singers!"
"It's starting, it's starting!"
"Supporting Petal Shower!"
"I love Sunset Glow the most!"
"Flowing Time!"
"Flowing Time!"
"You can do it, The Clown!"
"Today, everyone has a chance of winning!"
"I'm looking forward to the birth of the grand champion!"
At 8 PM sharp.
Under the watchful eyes of everyone, the live broadcast of the grand finals of King of Masked Singers began!
