I started to become more self-disciplined at the age of 30

The scene was extremely quiet.

but.

Everyone was still standing.

After the applause ended, no one sat down. Instead, they stood and looked at Jiang Chen and the others on the stage. Each pair of eyes was filled with more or less fanaticism and admiration.

Jenna looked at Jiang Chen with a passionate and admiring gaze, and said excitedly: "Jiang Chen, did you write this song in North America or in China?"

Everyone pricked up their ears, wanting to hear more interactive information from Jiang Chen.

After all, Jiang Chen rarely appears in public and has not accepted any media interviews since coming to North America. He is so mysterious.

Many media outlets wanted to hype up Jiang Chen, but they could only use some ambiguous words and could not say anything too absolute because they had never interviewed Jiang Chen himself. In addition, they did not dare to offend Jiang Chen, so they could only use some ambiguous words. The result was that almost all reports about Jiang Chen himself were meaningless and general nonsense.

Many media, celebrity singers, and music creators pricked up their ears, wanting to know the message behind Jiang Chen's songs.

I want to know whether Jiang Chen created these songs in China a long time ago or after coming to North America.

If Jiang Chen had already had the inspiration to create in China, most of them would be able to accept it, and feel that the gap between themselves and Jiang Chen was not that big.

after all……

If they are given enough time, they also believe that they can create such works.

but.

If Jiang Chen started creating after coming to North America.

Then they can only feel ashamed of themselves.

Because Jiang Chen has only been in North America for three or four weeks, less than a month.

It would be almost impossible for them to create a piece of work like this within a month, because creating such a thing requires inspiration.

If they are creating those internet pop songs, there are formulas to follow and they can write a song in minutes.

However, to write a classic work like Jiang Chen's that will be passed down through the ages, it requires some inspiration and foundation to create.

If Jiang Chen came to North America to start composing, he would write one song a week, and both the composition and production would be completed within a week, which is definitely a speed that they can hardly achieve.

Jiang Chen looked at the expectant faces and eyes of the audience, nodded and said: "I started to have the idea after I came to North America. After all, English is not my native language, and it was just a coincidence that I wrote an English song in China. After coming to North America, I started to prepare for the competition performance, so I wrote these English songs!"

"Right now, I don't even know what song I'm going to sing next week. Because I haven't gone back to think about it, and I haven't written it yet."

Jiang Chen's words instantly caused warm applause and discussion at the scene.

While clapping, Tony said to Jennifer next to him: "This guy is really a genius! A musical genius!"

Jennifer also got some information and said, "Maybe he's not just a genius in music!"

The two said nothing more.

Rambo, Nakajima Sane, Diana and other contestants in the lounge were all silent and felt powerless.

They don't know what songs they're going to sing next week, but they know which classics they're going to choose, so they know the general range.

But Jiang Chen hasn't written it yet.

The gap between them is very huge.

on the stage.

Allen waved his hand, and the applause gradually stopped. He asked Jiang Chen, "Jiang Chen, will your next song still be rock?"

Jiang Chen shook his head: "I don't know. After the performance, I will go back and rest for two days, and then start thinking about the next song."

Taking two days off and considering it?

So that means you only have three or four days to write and produce new songs?

Many people in the music circle were shocked again and envious at the same time.

Even if they create a song like this, the production process will definitely not be completed in three to five days. It will take at least ten days or half a month. It requires careful and meticulous polishing, and such a work cannot be wasted.

but……

Jiang Chen’s creation and production process only took three or four days!
Many European and American creators felt powerless and discouraged and no longer wanted to compete with Jiang Chen.

Jenna continued to ask: "Oh? So, Jiang Chen, you only took three or four days to complete the creation and production process, right? You will upload this song "The Sound of Silence" later, right?"

Jiang Chen nodded: "Yes, the sound of silence has been recorded in the studio! I usually finish recording the studio version before performing on stage. This way I can upload it as soon as the performance is over so that everyone can hear my work."

Jenna said excitedly: "That's great, I can't wait to hear this song soon! I will listen to it on repeat all night."

Jiang Chen: "Thank you!"

The audience burst into warm applause again.

Jenna said loudly: "Thank you Jiang Chen for accepting our interview. Now everyone can start voting for Jiang Chen... Thank you Jiang Chen for the wonderful performance..."

Amidst warm applause from the audience.

Jiang Chen, Pu Yuexi, Chen Xiaojia, Li Wen, and Wang Jing were away for five days.

The pretty faces of Pu Yuexi and the others were flushed with excitement. This was a stage achievement that they had never dared to dream of before.

They truly achieved the ultimate that a rock band can do - conquer the world!

but……

Their eyes looked at Jiang Chen's back, full of expectation and admiration.

Because they know that now is not the end, not the extreme.

Jiang Chen can lead them to do better and continue to reach the most extreme level that a rock band can reach.

Conquering the world will no longer be just a slogan.

Amidst warm applause.

Several people walked off the stage.

Backstage, Han Qing and Yan Ruyu quickly came up to greet them, gave them water and helped them put on clothes. Then, instead of returning to the lounge, they walked directly to the exit, intending to leave the scene and return to the manor to rest.

Haley, Oldman, Guo Haitao, Luo Sheng and other high-level executives from the program team quickly came out to see Jiang Chen and his friends off.

Several people still had excited expressions on their faces.

When the host and Jiang Chen were interacting just now, the viewership was raised again, reaching a terrifying 64 million, an increase of 13 million people from the peak of 51 million last week!
This is definitely a result that will shock the entire industry.

"Jiang Chen, thank you for giving us such a wonderful performance! I hope we can see your equally wonderful performance next week."

Haley expressed gratitude to Jiang Chen and at the same time expressed her expectations for Jiang Chen.

Jiang Chen didn't say anything, just nodded to a few people, then walked to the special parking area under the escort of a group of bodyguards, got in the car and left quickly.

Haley, Oldman, Guo Haitao, and Luo Sheng watched Jiang Chen leave before turning to the production crew to continue watching the rest of the performance.

Of course, their minds are no longer on the subsequent performances, but they have begun to think about how to build momentum for next week's performance.

Jiang Chen's performance was over, and there was no expectation for the rest. The ratings would inevitably drop precipitously. They were only thinking about promoting it well this week, incorporating the popularity of Jiang Chen's wonderful performance into the next show, so that the ratings of the next show would rise to a higher level again. Then they would really have a chance to catch up with the Super Bowl's decades-long dominance in television.

Haili patted Guo Haitao on the shoulder and said, "Director Guo, you Hua Xia have made the greatest contribution to the program this time. I will propose to the board of directors to give you a higher share and profit!"

After a pause, Hailey said, "What I mean is, in addition to the share that should belong to you, there is an additional share! If you hadn't brought contestant Jiang Chen to the stage, our audience would have dropped by at least half, and our income would have been reduced by at least 60% to 70%! So, I think everyone will not be stingy and give you a little more benefit."

Guo Haitao smiled and said, "Thank you very much, Ms. Haley."

He did not refuse, nor did he act excited, but was neither humble nor arrogant.

Now, he has the most say in the program team besides Haley and Oldman, because he was the one who brought Jiang Chen to the program team.

Sometimes even Haley and Oldman would consider Guo Haitao's ideas.

A few people walked inside and saw Trins watching Jiang Chen leave at the door of the corridor, and then he left quietly. This scene immediately startled Haley and others.

They could see that Trins obviously wanted to see Jiang Chen off, but they didn't dare to disturb him rashly. It seemed that they had made Jiang Chen unhappy at the beginning, so now Trins was acting cautiously and didn't dare to go over to see Jiang Chen, as if he was afraid of making Jiang Chen angry again.

They simply could not imagine what kind of person Jiang Chen was that could make a European and American media emperor like Trins act so cautiously, fearing that he might offend Jiang Chen.

Even the President of North America could not allow Trins to treat him so cautiously.

After all, Terrins controls the world's largest media empire. No ruler dares to offend such a media king easily, otherwise he may lose his reputation in his later years and may even be forced to step down by the media.

This is not unprecedented in North American history.

and so!
Media groups have great say in Europe and the United States.

No force would want to offend a media giant.

That is why the media is called the uncrowned king.

And at this moment, the uncrowned king of the media empire was so cautious towards Jiang Chen.

This made both Haley and Oldman start to think about whether their previous attitude towards Jiang Chen was respectful enough, whether there was anything inappropriate, and whether it would make Jiang Chen unhappy.

A few people walked back to the program set, and the new performance had already begun.

Jenna said excitedly while standing in the backstage: "Jiang Chen has indeed uploaded The Voice of Silence. The sales are amazing."

Alan nodded: "Yes, I downloaded it right away. This song is perfect for one person to listen to on repeat and savor carefully. I can listen to it for a year without getting tired of it."

After hearing this, Haley and Oldman returned to the office and immediately downloaded the Sound of Silence that Jiang Chen had just uploaded.

Haley looked at the data on the platform and saw that Jiang Chen had just uploaded the song "Sound of Silence" for less than two minutes, but the download data had reached 20 million!
Just two minutes.

Haley and Oldman looked over the long string of eight-digit numbers again and again to make sure they were not mistaken.

"Oh my god, 20 million sales in two minutes! He's going to set a new record."

Haley couldn't help but exclaim.

Oldman nodded: "Yes, he is a walking money-printing machine. He can make hundreds of millions of dollars from just one song. Before this, I couldn't believe that this would happen. He himself is like a miracle."

The tone of both of them was full of envy.

Moreover, they knew that Trins's attitude towards Jiang Chen showed that Jiang Chen was definitely not short of money, and his wealth was definitely not less than Trins'. It was a huge fortune of at least one or two hundred billion US dollars. So although Jiang Chen's income of hundreds of millions from a song might seem like a lot, it was not a lot for Jiang Chen himself, and might just be pocket money.

If they were the copyright owners of Jiang Chen's three songs, they would probably retire immediately.

The income from these three songs is enough for them to enjoy a comfortable life for generations.

But to Jiang Chen, it is dispensable...

Sometimes, comparing yourself to others is really a death sentence.

Oldman looked at the live broadcast, his eyes widened again, and he exclaimed: "Look at the votes!"

Haley looked at the real-time vote count for the contestants displayed on the TV screen.

Including Jiang Chen, only three contestants have finished their performances, and the audience can only vote for them for now.

At this time, Jiang Chen was ranked first without any suspense.

And the votes...

Their eyes widened and they were speechless for a moment.

Jiang Chen's votes were as high as more than 17,800 votes.

The second and third place contestants only had a few dozen votes!
They looked again and again to make sure they were not mistaken.

Jiang Chen alone has received more than 17,800 votes.

And now is only the fourth contestant's performance, and there are five more contestants to perform.

That is to say...

These six contestants can only compete for their own votes from the more than 2,000 votes below them.

This is an even bigger gap than last week.

Last week, Jiang Chen’s more than 15,000 votes were already an exaggeration, while the second place Rambo only had more than 2,000 votes.

But this time the gap is even more exaggerated.

Jiang Chen has already received 17,800 votes, just short of 18,000 votes.

All the people under him combined can only get more than 2,100 votes!
Haley whispered, "I hope the other players can withstand this kind of blow and not be as depressed as the baseball player last time..."

The South Korean contestant who was eliminated last week after receiving only a dozen votes fainted on the spot. Although he was rescued after being sent to the hospital, he was in an extremely low mood. He did not stay in North America and went directly back to South Korea. There has been no news about him since then. It seems that he does not want to debut as a singer again.

The blow to her heart by Jiang Chen was so severe that she quit the music industry immediately.

And this week.

Haley and Oldman speculated that the gap between Jiang Chen and others would be even more exaggerated.

However, the gap between several other players may be shortened.

possible……

There will be more than one contestant who only gets double-digit votes!
This is a big blow to every player.

because……

They all fought their way up from their respective regions, eliminated many players, demonstrated their great strength, and competed for the world championship with the support of many audiences.

result……

That's it?

They haven't read China's Journey to the West, otherwise there would be a more appropriate description!
Just like, you have been the world's number one genius since childhood, practicing all the way, dominating the world, invincible, and then breaking the shackles of the world and ascending to the fairyland.

result……

Just after entering the fairyland and becoming an immortal, he was urgently summoned by a stronger boss to join the organization and became a member of the 100,000 heavenly soldiers. He went to gather at the South Gate of Heaven and saw a monkey holding a stick standing there.

Then you see a huge stick sweeping towards you, and you lose consciousness instantly. (End of this chapter)
