Chapter 86: Chapter 86: Can’t Drag it Until Tomorrow (Seeking Recommendations)_1
After Lin Zhirou sang "Fragrance of Rice".
The audience in the venue burst into enthusiastic applause. If applause wasn’t given, it would have been absolutely unjust.
Because Lin Zhirou sang the song so beautifully.
The song was filled with positive energy and was very inspiring.
Lin Zhirou’s voice was just enchanting.
The 21 judges on the stage gave Lin Zhirou high praise, and they also looked up the information about this original song she performed.
Song - "Fragrance of Rice"
Singing: Lin Zhirou
Lyrics: Erxiong
Composer: Erxiong
Arrangement: Liu Cheng, Wang Yixiang
"Have you heard of this Erxiong?"
"I haven’t heard of him, he should be a musician with low profile, right?"
"Since he could create such a good song, this guy must be very talented!"
A few judges discussed the creator of "Fragrance of Rice," Erxiong, and unanimously believed that Erxiong has a promising future.
Ding Yue told Lin Zhirou that these three songs were composed by a friend of his who makes music, so he used the artist name of that "friend" as the songwriting credits.
That is, Erxiong.
As for the two people who were credited for the arrangement, they were music teachers from the arts department of Mist City Arts and Science University.
Ultimately, the outcome of this PK match was without suspense.
Even the muscular Chen Xiuli admitted his defeat wholeheartedly, as after listening to Lin Zhirou sing this song, he found himself becoming a fan of Lin Zhirou.
From opponent to fan.
It was just a song’s distance.
After Lin Zhirou successfully advanced, Mist City Arts and Science University was just one step away from the upgrade to "Minor Achievements".
As long as Lin Zhirou’s score ranks in the top ten after the second round of performances, the achievement of "First Prize in the National College Student Art Festival Music Competition" will be within grasp.
At that time, Ding Yue can upgrade his Mist City Arts and Science University!
Ding Yue was somewhat looking forward to it.
The competition continued, all fourteen PK matches ended, and out of the four contestants from the Southwest Division, three advanced.
These three were Wang Jin, Rui Di Baby and Lin Zhirou, with Shu City Music Academy taking up two-thirds of the spots.
After the grouping PK matches ended, there was a ten-minute intermission, followed by the elimination round.
During the elimination stage, the fourteen contestants performed in succession, then the 21 judges scored them, with a total of 2100 points.
The four lowest scorers would be eliminated directly, having no chance for first place.
The top four would compete for the championship, runners-up and third place, while ranks four to ten would receive first prize.
If you can win the first prize in the National College Student Art Festival Music Competition, it shows that the contestant has potential for future development.
Of course.
If someone could win the championship, numerous companies would probably proactively offer opportunities.
The mid-break was over in the blink of an eye.
Just as Ding Yue returned from a bathroom break, he continued to watch the competition, eagerly anticipating Lin Zhirou’s impressive performance and the moment of achievement.
The seat to Ding Yue’s left was empty, Wen Ruohan was not in the audience.
She was in the makeup room.
"Zhirou, this hairstyle will look more romantic, and I think the eyelashes could use a little more makeup..."
Wen Ruohan was helping Lin Zhirou with her hairstyle and makeup.
As Lin Zhirou´s next song is "Confession Balloon", she has changed into a white crystal gown that corresponds to the song, and her hairstyle can’t be the ponytail she had for "Fragrance of Rice".
Initially, Ding Yue planned to hire a makeup artist for this task.
But Wen Ruohan actively volunteered, and her makeup skills were quite good, so Ding Yue agreed, giving her an opportunity to show off her skills.
With a new outfit and light makeup, Lin Zhirou had transformed from a youthful and vibrant style to a pure and romantic one, giving off a sense of first love and romance.
The knockout round has started.
Wang Jin again performed first, and Lin Zhirou was the seventh.
This knockout stage is critical for those strong competitors, especially if they want to compete for the championship.
First and foremost, your performance must be extraordinary compelling, pouring all your efforts to ensure that you rank first or second in the scores.
After all, only the top two scorers are eligible to compete for the championship of the music competition.
Obviously.
Wang Jin absolutely intends to compete for the championship.
Therefore, him being the first to perform, could be said he gave it his all. He blended and remixed two high-pitched songs, creating a high tide of harmony during the two high-pitched sections and gaining round after round of applause at the scene.
The judges were quite complimentary about the performance of the "High-pitched Prince" from Shu City Music Academy.
All 21 judges scored him more than nine points.
In the end, Wang Jin scored a total of 2005.5 points.
"As expected, the High-pitched Prince of Shu City Music Academy is quite strong."
"Wang Jin is handsome and good at singing. I just love him."
"I see Wang Jin has the potential to win the championship."
"Wang Jin is thinking about winning the championship? Is he not regarding my Madness Band?".
"Su Xixi from Chang’an Music Academy is laughing!"
"Am I the only one who likes Lin Zhirou from Mist City Arts and Science University?"
"Lin Zhirou’s ’Fragrance of Rice’ was indeed stunning!"
Some audience members favored Wang Jin, others favored Madness Band, some favored Su Xixi, and now some are starting to favor Lin Zhirou.
Madness Band, a rock band was the fourth to appear. Comprised of rock enthusiasts from Shencheng Music Institute, this band indeed commanded great strength and popularity.
When the band performed their rock song, the atmosphere was such that it made the competition almost feel like a concert.
Finally.
The Madness Band scored 2000 points, unexpectedly a little lower than Wang Jin, temporarily ranking second.
Next was Rui Di Baby from the Shu City Music Academy, whose performance this time seemed a bit too forced.
Thus, Rui Di Baby only scored a total of 1976 points. It seems like she has no chance of competing for the top three, but getting a first prize should be no problem for her.
"The next performer is from the Southwest division, a student from Mist City Arts and Science University, Lin Zhirou."
Finally.
It’s time for Lin Zhirou to perform.
She came out in a white crystal dress, long hair draped over her shoulders, an exquisite face, bringing out a sense of first love.
Thump~Thump~
Even Ding Yue’s heartbeat quickened a bit when he saw Lin Zhirou come out.
Oh no.
What is this feeling?
"Wow!"
"That looks good!"
"Mom, I’m in love."
"Lin Zhirou is my type, my heart is moved!"
"Perhaps this is what a goddess is?"
"Whew, why is she so beautiful?"
"I unilaterally declare that I’m in love, all of you can do whatever."
"Hehe, she looks just like my ex-girlfriend."
The male audience got very excited, and Ding Yue wanted to laugh when he heard these words from the boys.
What are you guys thinking?
All members of the Peach Network?
Lin Zhirou is my girl, if I say I’ll have her tonight, I definitely won’t drag it till tomorrow...
