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

Haley took the real-time data from the staff, a hint of joy flashing in his eyes, and handed it directly to Oldman, laughing, "Time to pop the champagne again!"

Oldman quickly took it and saw that the number of viewers had reached more than 70 million, surpassing the peak of 60 million viewers in the previous episode!

This shows that these viewers are very loyal. Most of them will continue to watch Jiang Chen's performance in the next episode. In addition, new viewers are attracted by word of mouth, so the number of viewers has increased by tens of millions.

Oldman exclaimed excitedly, "Perhaps we can now imagine what it would be like to have over a hundred million people!"

Haley's eyes also sparkled with anticipation.

A viewership exceeding 100 million is a privilege exclusive to the Super Bowl.

Since the advent of television in North America, only the Super Bowl has consistently attracted over 100 million viewers annually, making it one of the most lucrative events in the United States and even the world.

Even now, with the advent of the mobile internet era, many people are used to watching TV on their phones and computers, and fewer and fewer people are watching TV, resulting in a significant drop in viewership for many variety shows and TV dramas.

but……

The only event that wasn't affected was the Super Bowl.

Even though mobile phones and computers are more fun, the vast majority of North American viewers still maintain the tradition of watching the Super Bowl every year. Although the number of viewers for the Super Bowl is not as high as it used to be, it still reaches hundreds of millions of people every year.

Haley and Oldman both wished Jiang Chen would perform two more shows each time, so that the peak viewership could be maintained for a longer period, attracting more people and resulting in even higher peak numbers.

However, remembering the tone of Mr. Trins's reprimand over the phone earlier, they dared not do anything to Jiang Chen.

Trins's attitude towards Jiang Chen was beyond description; it was practically fawning!
With their biggest boss, North American media mogul Trins fawning over him, how could they dare to do anything to Jiang Chen?
Jiang Chen's presence in the performance was the greatest honor they could bestow upon them.

Even if Jiang Chen suddenly quits halfway through the performance and leaves, they wouldn't dare say anything. In fact, they would try their best to help Jiang Chen clean up the mess, taking the blame themselves and making excuses, such as equipment failure or staff error, rather than saying that Jiang Chen quit the performance.

and so!
They didn't dare to ask Jiang Chen to perform two more shows.

Now all they want is for the World Championship to end smoothly, and for the players to stop running away so easily.

Now only four players remain...

The atmosphere at the scene was almost electric.

The shouts of tens of thousands of people could be heard for kilometers.

Meanwhile, many spectators and fans who hadn't been able to buy tickets were also cheering and interacting outside the venue.

Jiang Chen's singing voice also drifted outside.

"This is for the ones who stood their ground..."

"For Tommy and Gina who never backed down..."

"Tomorrow's getting harder make no mistake..."

"Luck ain't even lucky......"

“Got to make your own breaks………”

"It's my life......"

"And it's now or never……"

"I ain't gonna live forever......"

"I just want to live while I'm alive......"

"It's my life......"

on the stage.

Jiang Chen's stage presence remained incredibly strong as he stepped to the front of the stage, his gaze sweeping over the many faces.

This made the audience in the stands even more restless and frenzied.

Even the superstar Tony abandoned his airs and waved wildly at Jiang Chen.

Lily next to him screamed, "So cool! So awesome... He's like a god, all-powerful!"

At this moment, Lily only had eyes for Jiang Chen, feeling that Jiang Chen exuded an irresistible charm.

Jiang Chen's restless singing voice once again entered everyone's ears.

"Better stand tall when they're calling you out..."

"Don't bend don't break baby don't back down..."

"It's my life..."

"And it's now or never..."

"Cause I ain't gonna live forever..."

"I just want to live while I'm alive......"

"It's my life………………"

Jiang Chen's singing came to an abrupt end!

The musicians, including Pu Yuexi, who were providing accompaniment, also stopped playing at the same time.

The entire audience seemed to freeze in time.

The singing and music stopped simultaneously.

The air in the entire scene seemed to freeze instantly.

Everyone's eyes were still fixed on Jiang Chen on the stage, and many people's hands were still waving to the rhythm of the music. Then they all stopped at the same time, as if they had been frozen in place.

Jiang Chen spoke up amidst the sudden silence: "Thank you for listening. This song is called It's My Life."

"I hope everyone can find the life they want!"

After speaking, Jiang Chen nodded slightly to Pu Yuexi and the others. Pu Yuexi, Chen Xiaojia, Wang Jing, and Li Wen also came over and stood with Jiang Chen to nod to all the audience members, indicating that the performance was over. Then they began to pack up their instruments.

The audience gradually came to their senses and burst into enthusiastic applause the next second.

Everyone stood up at the same time and clapped their hands vigorously, venting all their strength, not caring that their hands were bruised and sore from clapping!

James, Tony, Lily, and the others naturally stood up and applauded enthusiastically.

Hosts Jenner and Ellen also came out clapping.

"Thank you, Mr. Jiang Chen, for once again bringing us a musical treat. It's been a long time since we've heard such captivating rock music..."

Allen said admiringly, then stepped forward and gave Jiang Chen a light hug.

He now addresses Jiang Chen with an honorific title, calling him Mr. Jiang Chen, and no longer dares to address him casually.

He and Jenna had just chatted with the director and producer backstage, reminding them again to be careful with their words and tone when communicating and interacting with Jiang Chen, and not to offend him in the slightest.

Allen and Jenner were once again certain that Jiang Chen's identity was definitely extraordinary. Even their boss, Trins, who was known as the most influential media tycoon in the world, was very cautious around Jiang Chen. Naturally, they, as people in the entertainment industry, had to be even more humble.

When Jenna shook hands with Jiang Chen, she bent down slightly, trying to lower her posture as much as possible, not caring at all that her two big white breasts were showing in front of Jiang Chen, and laughed, "Now rock fans all over the world are even more excited."

Jiang Chen smiled faintly and said, "You're too kind. I'm just trying my best to do something well."

Everyone in the audience, as well as those watching on television, were glued to Jiang Chen, hoping he would stay on stage a little longer and interact with the host so they could learn more about this rock prodigy from the mysterious East. However…

Jiang Chen, however, did not want to stay on stage any longer.

Once the performance was over, his work was over.

and so!
After exchanging a few casual words with the two hosts, Jiang Chen led Pu Yuexi and the other three away from the stage.

Allen and Jenna didn't dare to discuss any deeper topics with Jiang Chen. They just echoed whatever Jiang Chen said, making the conversation seem a bit awkward.

When Jiang Chen left the stage, James and Lily, father and daughter, also left their seats in the audience and headed backstage. They knew that Jiang Chen would leave after the performance and wouldn't stay backstage for long, so they wanted to greet him and leave with him to get closer to him.

However, Tony curiously stood up as well, and said with a smile, "I also want to go backstage and take a look."

Neither James nor Lily stopped them.

Because they knew that Jiang Chen himself didn't care about these things.

In fact!
Jiang Chen never asked them to conceal his information.

However, it was subconscious and tacitly agreed among these top-level nobles to block all the amazing information about Jiang Chen.

and so.

They couldn't very well stop Tony from going backstage to see Jiang Chen.

Moreover, James and Tony were indeed good friends in the past.

However, James was busy with his daughter's medical treatment and company matters, so he had less contact with Tony. Tony, as a top Hollywood star, was also a very busy man.

They were both quite happy to be talking again.

However, when the three arrived at the backstage entrance...

James said earnestly to Tony, "Tony, when we go to see Mr. Jiang Chen later, you must not tell anyone what you see, understand?"

Tony was slightly startled, then quickly replied, "Of course, I always know what to say and what not to say. That's why I have many friends!"

James nodded and smiled, "That's how we became friends."

Lily, on the other hand, was lively and bouncy.

She has almost returned to normal in the past few days. Her favorite thing to do is to jump around and run around, which makes her very happy. She can truly feel the vitality and health of her body again, making up for the regret of being unable to move while lying in a hospital bed for the past few years.

Tony looked at the lively and happy Lily and said in a complicated tone, "Lily is such a lovely child. God is fair to her."

James nodded: "Yes, she's very lucky!"

As the three of them walked backstage, they saw Jiang Chen, Yan Ruyu, Han Qing, and the others meeting up in the distance. They were about to leave when Trins came over again to see them off.

Tony's eyes widened instantly when he saw this.

Because Mr. Trins, whom he usually finds difficult to meet, was now behaving humbly in front of Jiang Chen, even more so than when he met Trins.

"Mr. Jiang Chen, your performance today was absolutely amazing! You are simply a god of rock! Every song you sang was creating new rock history."

Trins said to Jiang Chen with admiration.

Jiang Chen said softly, "Thank you, it's not as high as you said."

Trins hurriedly and earnestly said, "That's because you're too demanding of yourself, too much of a perfectionist. In fact, your performance was already perfect. You yourself are perfect!"

"By the way, Mr. Jiang Chen, I'm hosting a top-tier party in a few days, attended by friends from the world's most elite circles. Many of them would like to meet you. I wonder if you have the time?"

Tony was extremely tempted. He had never been qualified to attend, or even hear about, gatherings of the most elite and powerful circles.

Because he's not qualified to be in that circle.

Although he is also a top Hollywood superstar with a net worth of billions of dollars and a huge influence, with hundreds of millions of fans worldwide.

but……

In the eyes of many top elites, he was just an actor.

Even the most amazing actor is still just an actor, unless he has other identities besides being an actor, such as being a scion of a top-tier powerful family.

Without other identities to back you up, if you're just an actor, even the most talented actor isn't qualified to enter the elite circles.

James listened, a faint smile appearing on his lips. He didn't say anything, just watched.

He knew Jiang Chen would definitely not attend.

Through his recent close contact with Jiang Chen, he has come to understand Jiang Chen's style and personality.

After all, Jiang Chen himself did not pretend to be profound to cover up his behavior. He has always been straightforward, saying what he wants to say and doing what he wants to do!
Therefore, James knew that Jiang Chen wouldn't go.

If Jiang Chen wanted to, he would have already hosted a gathering of top elites. With Jiang Chen's reputation, I'm afraid every top elite in the world would try to attend.

That way, the person who organized the party would also gain both fame and fortune!
Unfortunately……

Jiang Chen didn't want to, so he didn't dare to do it.

really.

Jiang Chen gently shook his head at Trins: "Sorry, I want to go back and rest."

After saying that, Jiang Chen ignored Trins, nodded to Han Qing, Yan Ruyu and the others, and walked out together.

A dozen or so professional security personnel quickly formed a protective perimeter around the area.

James, along with Lily and Tony, quickly went up to them.

“Mr. Jiang Chen, let’s go back together. Lily was so excited after watching your performance that she’s a little tired.”

James quickly stepped forward and said.

Jiang Chen glanced back at James and Lily, then at Tony, and nodded gently, saying, "Go back and rest if you're tired. But some exercise will help you recover!"

Lily smiled sweetly at Jiang Chen: "Thank you, Mr. Jiang Chen, I will be careful."

Jiang Chen nodded and then walked out.

James and Lily quickly followed, just like Jiang Chen's followers.

Tony tried several times to move and follow, but he stopped and stood there, staring blankly as James and his daughter left with Jiang Chen, his heart filled with thunderous shock.

After watching Jiang Chen leave, Trins's humility vanished instantly. He straightened his back, his face displaying its usual authority, and he gave Tony a sharp look before saying indifferently, "Tony, I don't want you to say anything more, understand?"

Tony snapped back to reality and hurriedly nodded, assuring everyone, "Of course, Mr. Trins, you know I never lie to anyone!"

Trins nodded and quickly turned and left.

Tony took deep breaths to calm himself down, knowing he might have discovered some incredible secret.

but……

He dared not delve deeper, nor did he dare ask too many questions, fearing that knowing something he shouldn't know might lead to an accident!
but……

He knew one thing: never provoke Jiang Chen. (End of Chapter)
