At this time, the third season of The Voice of America had entered its climax. Three of the four coaches were Xiao Yunhai's old friends, including David Hume, Katrina Graham, and Elliot. The last one was a veteran singer, Ledsteinbeck. Just the appearance fees of these four people alone cost the television station 160 million USD. The viewership ratings were even higher than the second season.
Robert said, "Boss, you're only going as a guest commentator. You don't have to go on stage personally. After the eight contestants have finished their performances, you can just give some comments. "
Xiao Yunhai thought for a while and said, "I was originally planning to go to New York tomorrow morning. Since that's the case, let's change it to tomorrow night. Hur hur, ever since I debuted, I've never been a judge. Alright, I agree. "
Robert said happily, "Thank you, Boss."
Xiao Yunhai waved his hand and said, "You don't have to be so polite. By the way, other than me, who are the other judges? "
Robert said, "This time, we've invited the music producers, Jed Merculio, Jesse Buckley, and Andrew Dora."
Xiao Yunhai chuckled and said, "These three are the top figures in the Western music industry. It's not easy for you to invite them. More importantly, they're all famous for being strict, especially that Andrew Dora. Even David was scolded badly by him, not to mention these youngsters. Robert, aren't you afraid that the show will go out of control? "
These musicians were not as easy to talk to as normal artists. They were all arrogant. To them, good was good, and bad was bad. It was harder than reaching the heavens to make them suffer and praise those mediocre singers.
When the time came, the contestants and coaches would not be able to back down. That would be troublesome.
Robert smiled and said, "This time, it was David Shemer and the others who took the initiative to suggest it. They wanted to hear the opinions and suggestions of the music industry's teachers so that they could make improvements and strive for the championship."
Xiao Yunhai said, "They're all quite unafraid of death. When will the teachers arrive? Now that they've come to our land, I have to personally welcome them. "
Robert said, "Tomorrow at 7: 30 PM."
Xiao Yunhai nodded and said, "Alright. I'll be there at 7 pm tomorrow. "
The news that Xiao Yunhai, Jed Merculio, Jesse Barkley, and Andrew Dola, these four famous musicians, would be appearing on the third season of The Voice of America was very quickly publicized by the television station.
Fans' comments were everywhere on the Internet.
"Good heavens. The contestants of The Voice of America were in for it this time. Other than Kungfu Xiao, the other three were known for their strictness in the industry. I'm afraid it'll be very difficult to move them with just one song. "
"Tomorrow's show will definitely be very exciting. I'm guessing that not only the students but also the instructors will be scolded. "
"Elliot, David, and the others are really too bold. Aren't they afraid of being embarrassed?"
"Oh, my Kathy, you must do your best. Otherwise, you might really get scolded. "
At 11 PM, the recording studio of Yunqing TV Station's The Voice of America was brightly lit. The four coaches and eight contestants had gathered and were practicing their songs for the next day's competition.
To them, the arrival of Xiao Yunhai and the other three contestants was no less than an exam. The contestants were not only the eight contestants, but also the four coaches. If the contestants did not perform well and were criticized, it would not look good on them either.
Therefore, no one kept the contestants' songs a secret this time. Instead, they generously showed it to the other three coaches to give their opinions so that they could use the next day's time to make changes.
"Joe, there's no problem with your singing, but your emotions are not fully developed. There's also a problem with your stage presence. You must be confident on stage and try to stretch your body as much as possible. Don't give people the impression that you're petty, "Elliot said to his contestant, Danny Joe.
David, who was beside him, said, "Elliot, actually, Joe has improved a lot compared to his previous shy and introverted self. His voice is very captivating. I think it's better for him to sing some lyrical songs. "
Lie Steinbeck nodded and said, "David is right. Elliot, I know that you want Joe to have more possibilities so that he can surprise the fans. But with Joe's personality, it's impossible for him to change in just a few days. It's better for you to choose a new song. "
Elliot frowned and looked at Joe, who was at a loss on stage. He smiled bitterly and said, "Maybe I was too impatient. Alright, Joe, let's choose a new song tonight. Didn't you want to sing Xiao's' Hey, Jury '? We can give it a try. "
Joe bit his lip and bowed to Elliot. "Teacher, I'm sorry to disappoint you."
Elliot waved his hand and said, "How can that be? You're very outstanding. Your voice and singing skills are perfect, but there's a problem with your stage presence. This requires a lot of stage experience. It's not something that can be changed overnight. Do your best. You're the only one left in our group. I don't want to enter the finals with no contestants left. That would be very embarrassing for me. "
The reason why The Voice of America was so popular with the fans was that it was similar to The Night of Singers. The right to advance was in the hands of the 2,000 fans of different ages.
Therefore, anything could happen on stage.
Although Elliot was the most famous of the four contestants, his luck was not very good. In the first two matches, three students were mercilessly eliminated by the fans, leaving only one student, Qiao, in the team.
Tomorrow's round would be eight to six. If Joe also left, Elliot would not know what to do.
Joe nodded vigorously and said, "Teacher, don't worry. I will definitely sing well."
Leder clapped his hands and said, "Alright. Everyone, today's training is over. You must remember the instructions given by the mentors just now and practice well to welcome the four music masters tomorrow. Do your best and try to get them to applaud you. "
The eight contestants replied in unison, "Yes."
Seeing everyone leave one by one, Katerina patted her chest and said, "How are you guys? I feel more nervous than the contestants on stage. "
Elliot smiled bitterly and said, "Katerina, you should be the least nervous among us."
David nodded and said, "That's right. Tomorrow night will be eight to six. Leder and I only have two contestants. Both of us might be eliminated, let alone Elliot. You have three contestants. Even if all of them are eliminated, there will still be one left. If we're talking about nervousness, Elliot should be the most nervous. "
Leder Starbeck said, "Katerina, I think you're not worried about whether or not you'll be eliminated. You're worried about the reviews of the four judges, right?"
Katerina said, "That's right. Among the judges, I'm most familiar with Teacher Barkley. He was the one who wrote the song that made me famous. In pursuit of perfection, Teacher Barkley made me sing a few hundred times before I barely met his requirements. I'm very worried that our contestants won't be recognized by him. "
Elliot smiled and said, "Then why did you agree to the TV station inviting these teachers to be guests?"
Katerina said, "You all agreed. How can I not agree? Are you really not worried? "
Elliot said, "I'm not worried. Because my teacher is Mr. Jed Merculio. When I record a song, if I don't get scolded by him, I feel uncomfortable. "
Everyone laughed.
