On April 13th, the highly anticipated live broadcast of the second episode of the “Four Nations Concert” arrived as scheduled.
On this day, “chinese partners” had been released in mainland China for 12 days, with box office reaching 800 million chinese yuan.
And starting from the 10th, the movie had also successively landed in Hong Kong and Taiwan theaters, with box office results reaching several millions in two days.
Film industry professionals predicted that when the movie finally finishes its run, it should have at least 1.1 billion in box office.
Although it might not surpass “lost in thailand”'s domestic box office record, it is still possible to exceed “beautiful fate”'s total box office of 1.091 billion.
To achieve such results with the first movie truly stunned many people in the film industry.
Because the three consecutive movies released by Tianxing Entertainment gave people the feeling of picking up money with sacks!
It was as if the current film market had truly improved, creating the illusion that every movie could be a big seller.
But after all, big sellers are a minority, it's just that these minorities are all concentrated at Tianxing Entertainment.
Looking at Tianxing Entertainment, this behemoth among entertainment companies with a market value exceeding 200 billion, their hearts were truly a mix of emotions.
One must know that the second-ranked Qunxing Entertainment only had a market value of 30 billion, and the previous second-ranked Giant Shark Entertainment only had a market value of 25 billion.
Haiyang Entertainment was less than 20 billion; what qualifications did these three entertainment companies have to be called the Four Nations Entertainment Companies along with Tianxing Entertainment?
The three of them had already been left far behind by Tianxing Entertainment.
......
The time came to 7:35 PM, and the second episode of the “Four Nations Concert” live broadcast began.
The viewership ratings before tonight's broadcast had already exploded, and when the variety show began, the real-time viewership had already broken 4.
When the four beautiful female hosts took the stage, the bullet comments in the Four Nations live broadcast rooms had already become a noisy frenzy.
With the promotion and word-of-mouth fermentation from the first episode, this second episode was naturally already incomparable.
And the 50,000 audience members on site had already waved their glow sticks, awaiting the start of this music feast.
The broadcast began with the four hosts announcing the results of the previous episode, and when Su Yu's work took the lead with an absolute advantage, the venue erupted in thunderous applause and cheers.
This scene made the audiences and netizens of the other three nations very displeased.
They even felt that their own country's lyricists, composers, and singers were not living up to expectations.
Especially the audience and netizens from South Korea; they had all witnessed Jin Damin's public challenge to Su Yu in the previous episode.
If he had won, everything would have been fine, but this guy lost!
Losing was one thing, but he didn't even make it into the top three, and at the last moment, he was even overtaken!
This was simply too embarrassing.
So, Jin Damin's life this week was not very good; he didn't even dare to show his face in South Korea and instead came directly to Jinling to “seek refuge.”
He was genuinely worried that if he showed up in South Korea, he would be severely beaten by angry audiences and netizens.
However, his situation wasn't exactly great either; this second episode was his last chance. If he couldn't enter the top three and gain points this time, then South Korea would have to replace him!
Many South Korean lyricists and composers were already dissatisfied with the results of the first episode, each clamoring that if they had gone, their results would definitely have been better than Jin Damin's.
The eight lyricists and composers completed the live drawing of lots on stage, but the results of the draw surprised everyone.
today, Su Yu's luck seemed very bad; he actually drew number one!
It seemed that Jinling TV really didn't tamper with the drawing of lots.
But when they saw Jin Damin's grim expression, they suddenly understood a little.
Because this guy actually drew number 2, and would perform after Su Yu's work.
Matsushita Kojiro, who was after Su Yu last time, showed a schadenfreude smile.
In fact, his past week since the results came out hadn't been that easy either.
Who told him to be at the bottom among the eight people!
But was his work bad? He himself didn't think so.
He felt that Su Yu's work was too good, making him, who performed after Su Yu, take the blame!
This time, Jin Damin was after Su Yu, and Su Yu was still creating songs in mandarin, so this clown-like Jin Damin would surely die a miserable death, right?
When the eight lyricists and composers finished drawing lots and left the stage, Jin Damin didn't foolishly provoke Su Yu again today, but instead lowered his head, not knowing what he was thinking.
And when the audience and netizens saw Su Yu also leaving the stage, they felt a pang of disappointment.
They had thought that Su Yu would personally perform in tonight's second show.
However, when the Cool Fire Combination subsequently appeared on stage, the eyes of many Chinese audience members and netizens lit up.
At first, they thought it would be the SSR Girl Group fighting this battle, but it turned out to be the Cool Fire Combination?
So, what kind of dance music did Su Yu prepare for them?
Just as the two members of the Cool Fire Combination walked to the center of the stage, a Chinese folk music band also appeared behind them.
Pipa, Erhu, Guzheng, Yangqin, Dizi, Dagu, and other traditional Chinese instruments were displayed one by one before the audience and netizens of the Four Nations.
In the original version, there were actually electronic synthesizers, as well as Western instruments like guitars and pianos, but Su Yu removed them.
Since he wanted to promote traditional Chinese folk instruments, how could he possibly add Western instruments?
This was also thanks to his top-tier arranging skills at this time!
However, the appearance of Chinese folk music was not the end; behind Yang Yi and Zeng Lingling, there were also twenty to thirty middle-aged and elderly backup dancers in unified costumes.
This scene puzzled even the Chinese audience and netizens a bit.
Could it be that Jinling TV was so poor now that they couldn't even afford young dancers?
But before they could think too much, as an exciting melody first came, the song's information also appeared on the big screen.
“the most dazzling ethnic trend”
Lyrics, Composition, Arrangement: Su Yu
Vocals: Cool Fire Combination
Performance: Yan Music Folk Orchestra
Backup Dancers: Jinling Happy Family Square Dance Team One
They could understand the information at the beginning of the song, but what the hell was “Square Dance Team One” at the end?
Could it be that Su Yu wrote a square dance song for this performance??
However, the category of dance music indeed didn't say that square dance songs couldn't be written.
At this moment, all the audience and netizens had an urge to spit blood.
They felt a bit like they had been tricked by Su Yu.
But the song's intro was genuinely catchy! They only heard the intro and already felt like moving along with it.
And at this moment, the Square Dance Team One on stage had already started to exert themselves.
Their movements were so synchronized, and their steps were incredibly precise to the beat.
This left the audience and netizens of the other three nations with a head full of question marks.
They couldn't understand why Su Yu, whose works had always been high-brow, would write such a popular melody.
Your “autumn whisper,” “night of confession,” and “a step away” weren't like this, were they?
