The gold button placed in the middle of the judges’ table is a symbol of luck and strength, and brings hidden surprises.
According to the rule of “Singing China,” the four judges each have the opportunity to press it once in the qualifying round to send a contestant directly to the position of the top 32, and in the second round and promotion stages, they can press it again to revive an eliminated contestant. (TN: Second round = quarter-final round.)
Each judge has two privileges, no more.
Lin Zhijie pressed the gold button and gave Lu Chen the big surprise he held.
Lu Chen was lucky to skip the quarter-finals and become the first contestant to enter the top 32 in the Beijing Singing Area!
“Wow!”
Chen Fei’er was so surprised that she smiled from ear to ear and said, “Brother Zhijie, you’re really good!”
Tan Hong laughed and gave Lin Zhijie a thumbs-up.
Zhen Zhen stood up and led the audience to applaud and cheered for Lu Chen and Lin Zhijie’s apology!
With Lin Zhijie’s identity and position in the industry, even if he has any opinion about Lu Chen in his mind, there was no need for him to say anything or explain anything at all. The act of apologizing undoubtedly shows his open-mindedness.
Lu Chen was also very surprised, but he reacted quickly and immediately bowed and said, “Thank you, Teacher Lin!”
All the audience stood up with them, applauding enthusiastically like a summer storm.
When this scene appeared in Lu Fei’s live broadcasting room, Lu Chen’s fans were all fired up!
“Good judges!”
“Lu Fei is mighty, straight to the top 32!”
“Enough with the talk. Come and send out fish balls. I’ll send the first wave, everyone follows up!”
“The people of Shanghai send their congratulatory message, congratulating the anchor on advancing to the top 32!”
“Congratulations!”
“Who is this judge? He must be praised.”
“Lin Zhijie, the music director of Flying Stone Records, is also a very good character.”
“Do you think Lu Fei will publish an album under Flying Stone Records?”
“It’s quite possible, looking forward to the anchor’s first album!”
“it’s beautiful to think about…”
Because of the golden buzzer, many people have higher expectations for Lin Zhijie.
Since fish balls don’t cost too much money, hundreds of notifications appeared frequently, brushing the whole screen, and the local tyrants have launched more than a dozen aircraft carriers in one breath, pushing the atmosphere in the live broadcasting room to the climax.
Li Feiyu, who hosted the live broadcast, was even more passionate and shouted hoarsely, as if he had won, with honor!
Lu Chen, who advanced to the top 32 through the golden buzzer, appeared on the TV screens of tens of millions of families in China and on the computer screens of netizens, making countless people remember his name. (TN: Netizens = internet users)
“Yezi, you have such a good eye!”
In Room 305 of Building 7 in the dormitory area of Beijing Normal University, several female students are watching the live broadcast of “Singing China” Qualifying Match on a laptop.
One of the girls smiled and said to Ye Zitong, who was sitting on the edge of the bed, “He has a promising future, handsome and talented. You have to hold on to him. Don’t let others snatch him away, otherwise you’ll cry when it’s too late!”
Ye Zitong shyly said, “What promising future, he and I are just ordinary friends. Everyone is free to grab anyone they like!
She already knew since last week that Lu Chen will participate in “Singing China” competition. And early this morning, she stayed in front of the computer to watch the live broadcast, causing all the students in the dormitory to gather around to watch the fun.
Ye Zitong did not want to be exposed, but there was someone around her who knew, so everyone knew it.
Zuo Xintian swallowed the apple that she was chewing and said with a smile, “You just have a hard mouth. Who was the one who left his sister the other day and snuck out and went on a date? I haven’t settled this debt with you yet!” (TN: Hard mouth 嘴硬 means stubborn and reluctant to admit mistakes or defeats;firm in speech.)
Last time Ye Zitong and Lu Chen went ice-skating at the skating rink.
After Ye Zitong came back, she was forced to tell the truth by Zuo Xintian, which was then classified as a crime that seriously damaged her best friend’s feelings.
Ye Zitong caressed her forehead helplessly and said, “Didn’t I invite you to eat Haagen-Dazs Ice Cream?”
“Do you think two cups of ice cream is enough to bride this young lady?”
Zuo Xintian pinched Ye Zitong’s face and said proudly, “Girl, you think too beautifully!”
Ye Zitong grabbed her hand and said with a smile, “Then I’ll add two more cups. It’s beautiful to see you eat and become a fat girl!”
“Ah!”
Recently, Zuo Xintian, who has gained a kilogram because in weight, jumped up like a cat that got its tail step on.
She pushed Ye Zitong down on the bed and cried, “I don’t want to eat. I don’t want to get fat!”
In the small dormitory, two girls’ playful laughter suddenly sounded.
Ye Zitong and Zuo Xintian are frolicking, but in her heart, she was thinking of Lu Chen, wondering what he is doing at this moment.
Are you celebrating your victory?
Alone, or with someone else?
She suddenly had the impulse to call Lu Chen immediately, but she was helpless as she was being pressed down stubbornly by Zuo Xintain.
…….
When Lu Chen came out of Beijing Satellite TV Broadcasting Building, it was already 10 o’clock in the evening.
After getting the golden buzzer and advancing to the top 32, he gave a separate interview with Beijing Satellite TV after he stepped down the stage. He mainly talked about his music experience, his music dreams and his feelings about being promoted.
Previously, Lu Chen had shot a short VCR video, but as the first contestant to advance to the top 32 in the Beijing Singing Area, he has a lot of fame points, so they specially made a reshoot.
In front of the camera, Lu Chen, as always, performed well and talked eloquently without the slightest stage fright.
All the reporters who visited him praised him as a star and wished Lu Chen victory in the 32 to 16 competition the following week.
When the interview was over, the time will naturally be late.
Standing in the doorway, looking at the cars that are passing by along the brightly lit long street, Lu Chen took out his mobile phone and turned it on.
During the interview just now, he turned off his cell phone out of courtesy.
There are already many unread messages in WeChat and QQ, all of which are congratulatory messages from his friends and fans.
Because the recording and broadcasting were one hour apart, so they just recently received the news. Lu Chen selected several important ones to reply, including Ye Zitong.
After replying to the messages, he called back a missed call.
The mobile phone rang for three seconds, and there came Chen Jianhao’s hearty laughter: “Lu Chen, congratulations!”
“Thank you!”
Lu Chen smiled and said, “Brother Jianhao, I advertised your bar!”
Chen Jianhao said: “I see, the advertisement was well played, but it’s not only mine, but also yours!”
Lu Chen has a 5% stake in the Forget Worries Bar.
Lu Chen laughed.
Chen Jianhao said, “Your song in the qualifying round is well written. What song are you going to choose in the top 32?” (TN: This is probably in the semi-finals.)
Lu Chen’s heart moved and asked, “Do you have any good suggestions Brother Jianhao?”
Chen Jianhao replied, “I think “You Who Sat Next To Me” is good. Similarly, it’s also an original work of yours. You sang it very well.”
Lu Chen vaguely understood a little, smiled and said, “Un, I’ll listen to Brother Jianhao.”
Since Lu Chen took part in the talent show, the owner of the Forget Worries Bar has become a bit mysterious.
But Lu Chen believed that he would not harm him.
Chen Jianhao smiled, “That’s good. Remember to come to the bar sometime. A lot of guests are inquiring about you!”
After chatting with Chen Jianhao for a while, Lu Chen ended his phone call, and called Li Feiyu.
“Big Chen!”
As soon as he heard his voice, Lu Chen was startled. “I’m going. What’s wrong with your throat?”
Brother Fei’s voice was so hoarse and unpleasant that it sounded as if his vocal cords had been rubbed hard by coarse sandpaper.
Li Feiyu laughed “gāgā” and said, “I’m so happy today and got too excited. I shouted too much until my voice got hoarse!”
“Big Chen, do you know how much reward we got for our live broadcast this evening? 70T, a full 70T!”
He was obviously very excited. Regardless of his voice, he loudly reported the good news to Lu Chen.
“Most of them are rewarded by ordinary Lu army fans, a lot of fish balls!”
In any live broadcasting platform, including [Whale TV], most of the rewards came from the local tyrant or high-level fans, but no one should underestimate the strength of ordinary fans. Even if there is only 1 in 10 people rewarding 100 fish balls from hundreds of thousands of fans, that’s already a huge amount.
And one or two hundred fish balls, as long as usually do the free task of the website, is still very easy to accumulate.
This is undoubtedly a congratulatory gift from the vast number of fans to Lu Chen!
“That’s good, don’t say anything anymore!”
Lu Chen said decisively, “I’ll come over now. I’ll see you at the same place!”
