A Chance To Become An Adonis

Chapter 263: Thanks

Chapter 263: Thanks

Chu Jingyi asks the elderly man. He's the oldest of the five judges, looking to be around his late seventies. 

He was the strictest of the five. The highest he gave was a two, while the lowest was none. And yet, nobody criticized what he did. Bo Ping had the pedigree to do this. 

He's a national treasure. Different knowledge of musical techniques and the talent to back it up as well. With that, nobody could say a thing on how he judges.

"We shall see." Those were the only things he said as he stared at Zhang Jian. 

The host looks back at Zhang Jian, signaling him to sing. Zhang Jian takes deep breaths as he starts to sing. And when he did, everybody felt they'd been sent to a flower field. 

Then they heard a gentle sound of a zither. The flowers bloom from the gentleness of the sound. 

The audience didn't say a word. 

Everybody was too absorbed in the image. It was just too soothing and gentle. However, it lasted a few minutes. 

Zhang Jian bows after finishing his song. He expected a pity clap or something. But the only thing he got was silence. 

'Did they not like it?' The silence kept going on for a while.  But it was worth it. Not hearing his singing made them wake up. 

A large amount of clapping and cheering came after! They couldn't believe how great his song was.

"Encore! Encore! Encore!" The people wanted to hear him sing more.

"It seems that everybody can't get enough of contestant Zhang Jian's song." The host was also surprised that Zhang Jian could sing so well. He hadn't seen somebody like him in a while. He continues, 

"What do our judges have to say about this?"

The audience becomes silent as they look at the judges, waiting for their responses.

Wu Hao Yu was the first person to say, "The way you sang was beautiful. It felt like I was transferred to a different world. It's a shame that I couldn't give you a higher score." He gives a five to Zhang Jian.

"You said there's another person who helped you?" Chu He's curious as to who the other person is. 

"Yes. I wrote the lyrics to the song. My colleague helped with the arrangement. And both of us worked on the composition." The two of them have been working day and night for today. 

"The two of you did very well." Chu He didn't say more as she gave him a five as well. 

Chu Jingyi instantly gives him a five.

"I have nothing more to say. The way you put your emotion into the piece was extraordinary. After this competition is over, how about you join our label?" Such a talent like Zhang Jian is hard to find. Has the looks and the talent? Who wouldn't want him?

As the three gave him five stars, Ling Wei thought differently.

"You did really fine for the most part. However, there are still some things you have problems with." Ling Wei gave Zhang Jian a four.

And when she did, some of the audience members booed her. 

The only person left is Bo Ping. Instead of giving him a score, he asks, "Child, what is the reason why you sang that song? I know that it wasn't  only to prove yourself."

If that was the case, Bo Ping felt Zhang Jian would have chosen a more powerful song. That way, it would show off the range of his voice. That's what the other contestants were going for.

But Zhang Jian's song was more gentle compared to the others.

Zhang Jian nods his head, "This song is to prove myself. However, it's also to give thanks. Without this person, I wouldn't be here right now."

Many songs could show off Zhang Jian's voice. However, he and Gong Changming talked it out and decided to go with this one. 

Bo Ping didn't ask more as he continues, "I have seen many people come and go in this industry. Some who can go the distance and some that will stop the first step.

And today, I've seen a person that can go the distance." Bo Ping gives Zhang Jian a five.

"The song was meaningful and displayed your emotions and gratitude to that person." Bo Ping smiles and continues,

"I hope to see what you will bring to the next stage."
