As Tong Tong gradually grew up, he was no longer as sleepy as before. He was now like a normal child, taking an afternoon nap in the day, going to bed at 8 PM, and waking up at 6 AM. This was his more stable schedule now.
Of course, if he woke up at 1 or 2 AM in the middle of the night and pestered his parents to play, it would definitely be because Tong Tong slept more during the day.
Therefore, in order to prevent the little rascal from disturbing others in the middle of the night, Yang Yi and Murphy basically coaxed him to sleep after 8: 30 AM.
Xi Xi slept even later. However, when Yang Yi accompanied Xi Xi to read for a while, told her a story, and coaxed her to sleep, Murphy had already finished watching Peak Night. She turned off the TV and came upstairs.
"Who won in the end?" Yang Yi asked with a smile.
"Guess!" Murphy mischievously kept him in suspense.
"It's definitely impossible to guess. This is not just a competition of singing skills, but also a competition of fans and popularity. In the end, the voting results from various channels were aggregated by percentage and used as the final criteria for elimination and promotion. There's too much chance in this!" Yang Yi shook his head lightly.
Of course, Yang Yi did not mean that there was any fraud in this. The program that he directed had to be fair and just. Whether it was the finals or the previous episodes, Yang Yi had requested for the program team to invite a third party to participate in the voting process to ensure that no one manipulated the voting process behind the scenes.
As for whether or not there would be people who would hire the Internet Water Army to rig the votes?
Of course, this was also something that had been prepared by the technical staff beforehand. Relying on the fact that only real names could be used to vote, as well as the various technical obstacles, as well as the artificial detection of anomalies and other preparations, China's Voice was still able to eliminate the phenomenon of vote rigging to a certain extent!
However, voting was still subjective, and Yang Yi could not be sure who would win in the end.
Seeing that Yang Yi was not willing to guess, Murphy proudly announced the answer, "Of course it's Xu Lu, who I've always supported, who won in the end! I already said that her singing skills were good, and she even hid a trick up her sleeve. In the end, she sang 'Hometown' and defeated Ge Han! "
…
Ten minutes ago, the atmosphere in Beijing's 100,000-seat stadium had reached its climax!
Each of the four champions could be said to be an outstanding singer with outstanding abilities. In round after round of competition, there were people who left the stage dejectedly. In the end, only Ge Han and Xu Lu were left. The whole process was intense and exciting. It made the live audience and those in front of their televisions feel like their hearts were about to jump out of their chests with every vote!
Even so, they couldn't help but shout, "Amazing!"
The atmosphere was especially exciting. Jiang Yuzhe felt like he was about to suffocate, but he still waved his fist excitedly for the student he supported to advance.
It wasn't easy for Xu Lu!
After the first two rounds of singing, Ge Han was directly promoted to the fourth round by the audience voting, while Xu Lu had to participate in the third round of the competition. She had to fight her way through and enter the final round.
The audience was gradually divided into two groups. The fans who supported Ge Han and Xu Lu were cheering for the players they supported.
Finally, the final round of the battles began!
The first to sing was Ge Han!
Ge Han continued with his previous style, but this time, he chose a more difficult rock song. His sonorous and thick voice and unbridled stage performance ignited the enthusiasm of the audience at the scene!
"Rock is very emotional!" Jiang Yuzhe listened to Ge Han's song and secretly worried for Xu Lu.
Rock wasn't Xu Lu's area of expertise. Xu Lu's voice was a little hoarse. She was better at slow songs. She was good at using the sincerity in her voice to move the audience!
Of course, it wasn't that Xu Lu didn't know how to sing rock. She had used a rock song in the previous competition and showed that she had a good soprano!
However, Xu Lu wasn't a professional rock singer. Previously, Luo Jian had chosen a rock song that was more suitable for her voice. If she sang too much, she would definitely be exposed!
But if Xu Lu didn't sing rock, would there be any hope of winning?
One had to know that Ge Han's song was similar to "Once Upon You." It was very infectious. Jiang Yuzhe felt his scalp tingle as he enjoyed it!
With such a shocking performance, how could Jiang Yuzhe be worried for Xu Lu?
Not long after, Xu Lu walked onto the stage. The song she was going to sing, although there was no announcement, when the familiar prelude of the flute sounded, the audience was already in shock.
"Isn't this' Hometown? '" Jiang Yuzhe couldn't help but straighten his back. This song was from the 1980s, but he had heard it before. The melody was too familiar!
But this song was a typical slow song!
Singing such a retro slow song, how could it compete with other rock songs?
Jiang Yuzhe was anxious for Xu Lu.
However, Xu Lu quickly used her distinctive voice to silence Jiang Yuzhe and the other audience members who were discussing fervently. (Note: You can listen to Xu Fei's version of "Hometown's Clouds." This is the song that exists in this world, "Hometown.")
"Hometown's clouds float across the horizon, they keep calling to me …"
Her singing style was the same as the original, but Xu Lu's singing style was unique. Her female voice had a hint of sadness and hoarseness, while her voice matched the song perfectly!
When Jiang Yuzhe heard this, he felt as if his heart was being squeezed, and a wave of pain spread through him.
The singing in the middle silenced the noisy audience. Such a beautiful voice was worthy of everyone's calmness. They let go of the impetuousness from listening to the rock song and closed their eyes to listen quietly.
"… There's a voice calling to me. Come back, come back …"
This line was perhaps the part of the entire song that best reflected the contestant's singing skills. Xu Lu once again demonstrated to the audience and coaches her amazing improvement over the past few months. Not only did she manage to sing the high notes of this part, she also sang it with ease. Her hoarse voice had an air of inspiration that made several coaches standing by the side of the stage couldn't help but stand up for her!
After the song, the emcee went on stage.
Because she had to give the backstage staff time to count the votes, she asked a few questions like an interview. Among them, was why Xu Lu chose such a song as her last song to compete for the championship.
"Because I really like this song. For my music dream, I drifted in Beijing for many years. Although I'm very strong, every time I hear this song, I can't help but think of my hometown and my parents. So, I've always wanted to sing such a song. I want to sing it for myself and for all my friends who are working hard for their dreams! "Xu Lu said sincerely.
Just as Jiang Yuzhe thought, the emcee also talked about the shortcomings of this song and rock songs. She even talked about its age. "Maybe many young audience members haven't heard this song before."
"When I mentioned this to Teacher Luo Jian, he also told me to consider it carefully. After all, every song in the grand finals is very important! But in the end, Teacher Luo Jian still supported me. He said, 'No matter what kind of results I can achieve today, I've already achieved great results by participating in China's Top Voice. I've also embarked on the path of music that I've always dreamed of. Singing such a song is also good. It can make me remember not to forget where I came from and where I'm going. Only then can I go further!' "After Xu Lu finished speaking, she even bowed gratefully in Luo Jian's direction.
"Regardless of whether you can win the championship or not, you're already the champion in my heart!" Jiang Yuzhe looked at Xu Lu on stage and felt very emotional. His fondness for her deepened.
But just as Murphy and Yang Yi had said, the results were out. In the end, Xu Lu won the first season of China's Top Voice!
A grassroots singer's counterattack, all the way to the end, Xu Lu's road to success was as exciting as a novel's plot! The audience was satisfied, and the reporters were also in a frenzy. They had too much material to report, and this story might even be mentioned repeatedly in the future.
However, for Yang Yi and his family, the excitement of China's Top Voice had come to an end. Their lives were still the same as before, and they could do whatever they wanted!
The new album's protection period was not over yet, and Murphy was still continuing her legend.
Yang Yi also had other work to do. He remotely controlled the amusement park's design bidding. In the end, the design rights were handed over to a German design studio led by the world's top designers. The first phase of the amusement park's construction had officially begun.
As for Xi Xi, after the novelty of winning the award had worn off, she had to continue working hard. This was because her first final exam was coming in a month's time!
