Chapter 812: Battle of the Century
Judging the winners and losers by music has indeed become a commonplace in today's entertainment programs. Although there is no winner or loser in art, there is a winner or loser in variety shows.
Music competition variety shows will always be ranked at the end. The audience who come to watch this show will naturally come with a critical perspective. As long as they are on stage, they will inevitably be evaluated and compared.
You should know that the final stage of "Masked Singer" has several mentors opening performances. The three resident mentors and special guest mentors will all go on stage to show off.
This means that Pu Tong, as a special guest mentor, will still receive evaluations and scrutiny from a group of netizens after performing on stage...
Pu Tong has performed on stage many times, so he is naturally not stage fright, mainly because he is also performing on stage with Du Tianwang, who is also a mentor. When they go on stage, they will inevitably be compared.
As early as last year, Pu Tong wrote songs live, and Du Tianwang publicly praised his artistic attainments. The two have become people on the same level. Du Tianwang created an era, and Pu Tong marked a new era.
One of them is a living fossil of the Chinese music scene, and the other is a rising star of the Chinese music scene, representing an era respectively.
Netizens who like to watch the fun will definitely wonder, who is stronger and who is weaker between the two?
There is no distinction between superior and inferior in art, but artists do. They dream of watching these two leading figures compete on the same stage.
At the last recording of the seventh episode of "Masked Singer", Pu Tong and King Du were on the stage and off the stage, only one audience seat apart, but Pu Tong did not reveal his identity.
At that time, King Du's words "I am a fan of Pu Tong" made the duel even more intense. The more King Du praised Pu Tong, the more netizens looked forward to the competition between the two.
Those who support Pu Tong said that King Du is old and has long passed his peak. Pu Tong is only 17 years old and has unlimited possibilities in the future. The duel between the two is somewhat disrespectful to the old and the young.
But those who support King Du did not dare to show up when they saw Pu Tong on the scene. Isn't this "surrendering without a fight"? What's wrong with being a rising star? Compared with veteran musicians, his qualifications and experience are too shallow.
The two groups of people each have their own reasons, and with the addition of the melon-eating passers-by and the black marketers, there are all kinds of interpretations about who is stronger between Pu Tong and Du Tianwang, and the analysis of the battle mechanics is unrestrained.
But the two parties are really calm. Even if they quarreled fiercely online, they never responded publicly, so netizens' expectations for this century-long battle can only be fantasy and far away.
As a result, who knows, the lineup of mentors for the finals of "Masked Singer" was officially announced, and the program team actually invited Pu Tong.
When Pu Tong appears in the finals as a mentor, won't the two have a chance to fight?
Although objectively speaking, this cannot be regarded as a fight, it's just that both of them will perform a song as mentors, and netizens can take this opportunity to compare their performances.
Appearing on the same stage, there will always be a difference in the performance of the two. For the audience, this is enough. A simple exchange can also be a duel.
The current peak of the Chinese music scene and the previous peak are about to fight the century. How can everyone not look forward to it? No matter who loses or wins, this will be an exciting competition.
Compared with the final victory or defeat, they are more looking forward to the process of this duel. The masters' moves are deadly. As mortals, they will naturally enjoy watching the gods fight.
No matter who wins, they will not be surprised. These two people, one has decades of background and experience, and the other is talented and has unlimited possibilities. Without a head-on fight, anyone may win.
After realizing this, even Pu Tong himself felt his scalp tingling. Even if he has a small music library in his mind, he may not be able to win.
The songs he remembered were all works by the big bosses of the earth, and what he is competing with now is the king of this world.
It's like he is a young man with a divine weapon. It will definitely be a fierce battle to defeat a real god head-on.
After all, in the mentor performance session, he only has the opportunity to sing one song. If this song is not well chosen, even if he has many trump cards, he will not have the opportunity to show them.
When masters fight, one move always determines the outcome. There are many songs in his mind, but on this critical stage, Pu Tong can only show one song.
Therefore, he must be very careful in choosing the song that the mentor will perform, and the song he chooses must not be mediocre.
Pu Tong wants to use all his strength to prepare for this duel, not because he wants to win, but only by using all his strength can he give the opponent the greatest respect.
King Du admires him very much, and so does he? Facing such a music predecessor with strength, talent and pattern, all he can do is to go all out.
In fact, he also wants to know how much the strength between the two worlds of Chinese music is different. They represent not only themselves, but also the confrontation between the two sides of entertainment art.
Pu Tong also rarely put away his thoughts of playing around. For this final stage, he must prepare carefully and must show his world's excellent literary and artistic works.
As for which song to choose, he has not yet decided. The Chinese music scene he is in is too wonderful, so he can't choose the best song.
It is difficult to measure the quality of a song. A popular song is not necessarily good, and a less popular song with high reviews also has its own limitations. There is no such thing as the best musical work...
"It's so difficult."
Pu Tong rubbed his hair. Except for the final of the math competition, he had never been so stressed.
Which piece should he choose? Du Tianwang has been famous for a long time and has long been a leader in the entertainment industry. If he is too careless, he may lose miserably.
Just as Pu Tong was racking his brains to carefully choose, the phone beside him lit up, and the message came from none other than Du Tianwang.
At least Du Ziyue got Pu Tong's contact information from Iori Yukino, but he didn't send any messages after adding him as a friend.
Pu Tong himself was puzzled. Du Tianwang acted so anxious. He thought he would chat as soon as he added him as a friend, but there was no follow-up after he successfully added him.
What did he want to say when he sent a message at this critical moment?
"I believe you have also seen the discussion of netizens, Pu Tong, show your best state. I have been looking forward to the opportunity to compete with you on the same stage for a long time."
At the end of the message, there were also two rose emoticons for the elderly.
Pu Tong let out a long sigh. It seemed that he was still a little too nervous. The closer the battle was, the more relaxed he should be.
Let’s fight!
He thought about it and replied immediately.
