Chapter 89: Chapter 89 Winning the Championship (Request for Votes)_1
The song "Blue and White Porcelain" ended.
The audience and judges were completely enchanted by Lin Zhirou’s captivating voice and the charming rhythm of the song.
The most common phrase among the audience was "This is too good to listen to."
However, the hall fell eerily silent after Lin Zhirou finished singing.
"Why is nobody clapping?"
Wen Ruohan asked curiously.
Ding Yue looked around at the audience, they seemed still immersed in the music.
About a second or two later, gradual applause started.
Then.
Whoosh~
The applause echoed like a wave in the Star Sea Music Hall.
Several judges were discussing Lin Zhirou and the stunning song she sang.
"This girl’s singing is top-notch, on par with Su Xixi."
"I think she’s a bit below Su Xixi since Su Xixi was professionally trained at a music academy."
"But the impact this ’Blue and White Porcelain’ gave me is far greater than Su Xixi’s ’Lovesick.’"
"I agree with that."
"To be honest, the gap between the two songs is too big."
"Professor Zhang, what would you choose?"
"I think Lin Zhirou is better," said Professor Zhang, who held a higher position among the judges.
"Yes, yes, I also vote for Lin Zhirou."
"Hmm, indeed, all three songs that Lin Zhirou sang today were excellent, especially the last one, ’Blue and White Porcelain.’ It’s outstanding!"
Several judges echoed Professor Zhang’s sentiments.
About three or four minutes later.
The 21 judges began voting for Lin Zhirou and Su Xixi, with the one getting the most votes winning the National College Student Art Festival Music Competition.
At this critical moment, Ding Yue in the audience was not nervous.
Because Ding Yue trusted the judges’ judgment, it was obvious who sang better between Lin Zhirou’s "Blue and White Porcelain" and Su Xixi’s "Lovesick."
Unless there was manipulation, Lin Zhirou was destined to win.
As predicted!
The voting results came out quickly.
Lin Zhirou got 19 votes, Su Xixi got 2 votes, Lin Zhirou won overwhelmingly!
"Hahaha, we won, Principal Ding, Zhirou won, fantastic, she’s the champion!" At this moment, Wen Ruohan excitedly jumped up from her seat.
A joyful smile was also on the face of Director Jiang Xiuli of the Department of Arts.
Winning the National College Art Festival Music Competition awards was undoubtedly a proud honor for the Art Department of Mist City Arts and Science University.
Now, when Jiang Xiuli meets other department heads, she will have something to brag about.
Lin Zhirou did not disappoint Ding Yue.
If so.
Ding Yue decided that he would not disappoint Lin Zhirou today either.
With her hard work and practice, her singing skills had improved significantly, and if she receives his support in the future, she would definitely become a brilliant superstar.
After the judges’ voting results were announced, the awarding ceremony followed.
The organizers gave Lin Zhirou a certificate of award and a champion trophy made of crystal.
Beep beep beep!
While Ding Yue was watching the awarding ceremony, his phone beeped with a Whatsapp message.
Taking out his phone to check it.
His younger sister, Ding Xiaoyou, had sent a picture of herself and asked about the competition.
Ding Xiaoyou: Bro, how was the competition? (Eagerly rubbing hands)
"I refuse to tell you."
Ding Yue knew that his little sister must be anxious to know how Xiao Rou is doing in the competition.
How could I satisfy her wishes as an older brother so easily?
Ding Xiaoyou: Ding Yue! You’re asking for death, aren’t you! [Cleaver.jpg]
"Hehehe, [You come and hit me.jpg]" Ding Yue replied.
Ding Xiaoyou: Big bro~ my sweet big bro~ just tell me, could you~ please~
Shit!
This voice message instantly made Ding Yue’s skin crawl.
This girl, so she can play both soft and hardball, right?
"Okay okay, I won’t tease you anymore. The competition just ended and Lin Zhirou did very well!"
Ding Yue responded in a voice message.
Ding Xiaoyou: Champion?
"Yes!"
Ding Xiaoyou: Hahahahaha, I knew Xiao Rou would definitely do it!!!
Ding Xiaoyou: Bro, when are you guys coming back?
"Tomorrow, it’s Saturday tomorrow, are you coming over?"
Now that his parents work at Mist City Arts and Science University and her brother is the principal, Ding Xiaoyou spends her weekends at the university without going home.
Ding Xiaoyou: Yeah, I’ll come over after my evening self-study tonight.
"Then have dad pick you up in his car."
Usually, it was Ding Yue who drove to pick up his sister from high school and take her to Mist City Arts and Science University.
But that wouldn’t work tonight.
Because Ding Yue planned to fly back to Mist City tomorrow morning.
Ding Xiaoyou: Oh~ I see~ Then you guys come back early tomorrow, I miss Xiao Rou.
"So you only miss Xiao Rou, and have no respect for your big brother, huh?"
Ding Xiaoyou: Who are you? Do I know you? What do you want? [Suspicious Stranger.jpg]
Ding Yue didn’t feel like fooling around with his naughty sister anymore, he had more important things to do.
The award ceremony ended on stage, and the National College Student Art Festival Music Competition declared its conclusion.
Ding Yue, Wen Ruohan, and Jiang Xiuli immediately left the audience seats and headed towards the stage.
At this time, Lin Zhirou held her certificates and a crystal trophy, feeling elated and clueless about what to do next.
Winning a major competition like this as a music student was undoubtedly a stepping stone for Lin Zhirou.
But Lin Zhirou was very clear.
Her victory can’t be separated from Principal Ding’s support and encouragement.
"Zhirou, you were amazing!"
Wen Ruohan ran over, embracing Lin Zhirou affectionately.
The two girls were of the same age, both students at Mist City Arts and Science University. After interacting during the semi-finals and the finals, they became friends.
"Thank you, Ruohan, your makeup technique is terrific," Lin Zhirou gently thanked Wen Ruohan.
Wen Ruohan had helped with many little things, so Lin Zhirou had to thank her.
"Lin Zhirou, you did not disappoint us, well done," Ding Yue walked over and said with a smile.
A moment later, Ding Yue turned to Wen Ruohan and said, "Book the tickets for tomorrow morning."
"Huh? Principal Ding, it’s only noon, we can book the tickets for the afternoon," Wen Ruohan suggested they could fly back to Mist City in the afternoon.
"Lin Zhirou has been competing all morning, she must be tired, she needs to rest."
"Oh, I see, I’m going to book the plane tickets for tomorrow morning!"
