At the age of 38, he went to college and his children were classmates.

Although she said that, Lin Jiayu silently added in her heart: They were a perfect match!
At this point, the song came to an end.

As the energetic music faded away.

On stage, Shen Qiushan and Lin Xiamo also made a rather ambiguous ending gesture.

Upon seeing this, a burst of enthusiastic cheers erupted from the crowd.

The audience still really likes this handsome man and beautiful woman pairing!
All four mentors stood up and applauded, cheering for the wonderful performance by the Red Rose Band!
Family quarters.

Lin Moxuan's face had turned a deep purplish-red, and he gritted his teeth as he cursed, "What do you call this?!"

"Isn't Shen Qiushan taking advantage of Momo?!"

"Just sing properly, why bother with these unnecessary actions?"

Chen Qingzhu tugged at Lin Moxuan's arm helplessly: "Keep your voice down, what are you yelling about!"

"That's just stage effect. Didn't you see how enthusiastic the audience and mentors were?"

"What kind of stage effects are these?!"

"I think Shen Qiushan is just a scoundrel!"

If this weren't a live broadcast, Lin Moxuan would probably have already rushed onto the stage by now.

"I'm a professional singer, do you know more than I do?"

"This is a design to please the audience and cater to the song's context, just watch!"

"I think Momo and Qiushan will definitely get a high number of votes."

Chen Qingzhu has now completely switched sides and is naturally speaking up for Shen Qiushan.

Lin Moxuan snorted and pouted. He was a well-traveled person and could understand that Shen Qiushan and his daughter Lin Xiamo's actions were a performance, but he just found it awkward.

There was an ominous premonition that Shen Qiushan would also abduct his second daughter!
on the stage.

After their performance, Shen Qiushan, Lin Xiamo, and the others stood in a row and bowed to take their bows.

The host, Zhang Zhihua, strode over to the group.

"Thank you to the Red Rose Band for their wonderful performance!"

"Then, let's welcome Teacher Shen with the warmest applause!"

Wow~!

As soon as Zhang Zhihua finished speaking, enthusiastic applause and cheers erupted from the audience.

Shen Qiushan waved to the audience.

"I believe that the audience at the venue and those watching on TV must be very curious to see Teacher Shen on the stage of 'Voice of China'."

"Now, I'll ask you the questions you're all concerned about!"

"Ms. Shen, are you really a member of the Red Rose Band?"

After laying the groundwork, Zhang Zhihua asked with a smile.

"of course."

"If he's not a band member, wouldn't that be against the rules!"

Zhang Zhihua nodded and continued, "As we all know, you are a writer. Why would you want to join a band?"

"Because I love music!"

Shen Qiushan shrugged: "Also, it's because I'm quite familiar with Momo and Tingting."

"However, when I joined the band, I also said that they would be responsible for the performance on stage, and I would mainly be responsible for the creative work behind the scenes."

"The reason I stepped into the spotlight this time is because the song 'Nine Thousand Words' is designed to be performed by both men and women, so I just joined in!"

Upon hearing this, Zhang Zhihua quickly shook his head: "Teacher Shen is too modest. Your level is definitely not just for show!"

"Now that everyone has asked their questions, the public judges and professional judges can vote!"

"Next, we would like to invite the four mentors to comment on the Red Rose Band's performance and give their votes!"

"Teacher Dawei, you go first!"

The program continued with its schedule, and Zhang Zhihua was the first to mention Zhou Dawei.

"I really enjoyed the performance just now, and I was even more amazed by Mr. Shen Qiushan's wonderful performance. I am a loyal reader of 'The Three-Body Problem'!"

"It's truly unimaginable that an author capable of writing that kind of science fiction could also deliver a performance like that!"

"This completely changed my understanding of writers!"

"So, I'm giving all 50 of my votes to the Red Rose Band!"

After speaking, Zhou Dawei stood up and cupped his hands in a respectful gesture towards Shen Qiushan.

It's clear that he truly admires Shen Qiushan, and his comments just now came from the bottom of his heart.

"Teacher Dawei, I like you very much too. I grew up listening to your songs!"

Shen Qiushan replied with a smile.

The two then exchanged a few more compliments, each adding to the other's business acumen.

"Mr. Li Kun, what's your opinion on the Red Rose Band's performance just now?"

Zhang Zhihua continued with the procedures.

"Perfect in two words!"

"Although I didn't quite understand the song, the stage performance was absolutely amazing!"

"Also, I want to praise Momo's look today. It's really beautiful and stunning!"

"I'll give all 50 of my votes to you!"

The voting method for the finals is different from before. Each of the one thousand public judges will cast one vote, for a total of one thousand votes.

Each of the four mentors receives 50 votes, for a maximum of 200 votes!
In addition, the finals also invited thirty professional judges, all of whom are industry professionals, including lyricists, composers, independent musicians, and executives of music companies.

Each of them has 10 votes, and the maximum number of votes is 300.

In other words, the top four finalists can get a maximum of 1500 votes per round, which is 3000 votes for two rounds!
The contestant who receives the most total votes will be the champion of this season's "Voice of China".

Currently, both mentors, Zhou Dawei and Li Kun, have given a perfect score of 50 votes each.

Next up is Guo Yanbin, a singer-songwriter who has a lot of influence in music creation.

"My opinion is similar to Kun's. The Red Rose Band's stage performance was absolutely top-notch, but I didn't quite understand the song 'Nine Thousand Words' either. I even read the lyrics several times, but I still couldn't understand it."

"Teacher Shen, you are the author of this song, could you explain my confusion?"

After acknowledging Shen Qiushan's performance on stage, Guo Yanbin posed another question to him.

This problem was actually quite difficult for Shen Qiushan. The system only rewarded him with a song, but there was no background explanation or anything like that, so he had to rely entirely on his own understanding of what the song was trying to express.

"It's a story about unrequited love, and the writing style is rather abstract!"

Because the work was to be credited to him, Shen Qiushan really put a lot of thought into this song, and what he saw in the lyrics was a rather helpless love story.

Of course, Shen Qiushan didn't know if his understanding was correct.

But the advantage is that he's the author, so he has the final say!

Let others question if they wish.

"To express a helpless love story in a cheerful way."

"Cattle!"

Guo Yanbin, seemingly very understanding of Shen Qiushan, praised him, gave him a thumbs up, and then added, "I'll give him 50 votes too." "OK!"

"Now all three mentors have given the highest number of 50 votes!"

"Next up is Instructor Yang Nian!"

As the mentor of the Red Rose Band, Yang Nian spoke last: "I listened to this song many times during rehearsals. I was a little worried that this song might be a bit too weak."

"But as it turns out, rehearsals and the actual performance are really different. Judging from the effect just now, it's like two completely different songs compared to the rehearsal!"

"As the mentor of the Red Rose Band, I am very happy to see such a stage presentation!"

"In addition, I would like to give special praise to Teacher Shen. During rehearsals, I always held him to the standards of an amateur. I felt that it was already very good that he could deliver a 60-point result, after all, he is not a professional!"

"But he just gave a perfect score, that was really amazing!"

"In my opinion, Teacher Shen's singing skills and stage presence have surpassed 95% of professional singers!"

Yang Nian spared no praise.

After all, she was the mentor of the Red Rose Band, and there was a "shared interest" relationship where their fates were intertwined.

Therefore, no matter how well the Red Rose Band performed, she would actually praise them.

However, she can now praise without any qualms!
Because of her truly excellent performance, Yang Nian even felt that if she and Lin Xiamo switched places, she might not have performed as well as Lin Xiamo.

"So, Professor Yang Nian, how many votes are you going to give?"

Zhang Zhihua chimed in.

"Of course, it's 50 votes!"

Yang Nian shrugged lightly.

"OK!"

"So, the mentor votes for the Red Rose Band are now in!"

"All four mentors gave him a perfect score of 50 votes!"

"That means the Red Rose Band received a perfect score of 200 votes from the mentors!"

Congratulations to the Red Rose Band!

Zhang Zhihua announced loudly, and a round of enthusiastic applause immediately followed.

"Next, let's take a look at the voting results of the professional judges."

"Now, esteemed judges, please show your votes!"

Once the noise subsided a bit, Zhang Zhihua looked towards the professional judges' panel.

After hearing his words, the professional judges, who were already prepared, raised their placards.

The numbers on those signs range from 0 to 10!

This represents the number of votes given by the professional judge.

“10票、9票、10票、8票、 3票.”

The opinions of these professional judges were not so unified; some gave a full 10 votes, while others gave only a paltry 3 votes.

In the end, the Red Rose Band received 270 votes from the professional judges.

Although there are still 30 votes to go before reaching the maximum number of votes, this number of votes is already stronger than that of the contestants who appeared before.

“Teacher Ding Dasheng, I see you only gave 3 votes.”

Can you explain your voting criteria?

After the professional judges' votes were tallied, Zhang Zhihua called out Ding Dasheng's name, who had received the fewest votes.

He is a musician who has participated in many music variety shows and is known for his sharp tongue.

A staff member handed a microphone to Ding Dasheng, and the live broadcast camera focused on this unremarkable-looking old man.

Seeing that everyone was looking at him, Ding Dasheng felt a little smug. The reason he came to participate in "Voice of China" was to cause trouble!
Because this show has a large audience, given the opportunity, he can create topics that will get him trending on social media.

And now, the opportunity has come!

With high praise from all four mentors and most of the professional judges, he gave it a score of 3.

Just as he expected, the host, Zhang Zhihua, gave him the opportunity to speak.

Ding Dasheng pushed up his black-rimmed glasses and said to the camera with a serious expression, "I have one flaw: I like to tell the truth."

"The four mentors and most of the other professional judges praised the Red Rose Band's performance and the song 'Nine Thousand Words'."

"But what I want to say is that this song is really quite abstract. Just as Teacher Shen said, the abstract writing style has created an abstract song. Many of the lyrics are just pretentious and meaningless!"

"If all songwriters wrote songs like this, then the music industry would be finished!"

Ding Dasheng's words shocked everyone present.

No one expected that he would be so disrespectful, directly criticizing Shen Qiushan in front of him!
The four mentors who had just praised Shen Qiushan all looked rather grim. Ding Dasheng's words were not only a slap in the face to Shen Qiushan, but also to the mentors who had just praised him.

It's as if they're saying they have no taste and their musical skills are poor!

Seeing everyone's reaction, Ding Dasheng knew that his plan was half successful. He pressed his advantage and said, "In addition, I personally don't understand why Teacher Shen would come to participate in a music program like 'Voice of China'!"

"As we all know, you are a famous writer, and your work has even won the Nebula Award!"

"Shouldn't a famous writer like you focus your energy on writing? It's really not a wise thing to do to show your face in public!"

"Moreover, everyone knows that you are now a top student at Sanjiang University, studying in the School of Electronic Information!"

"Everyone knows that the School of Electronic Information at Sanjiang University is among the best in the country; it's no exaggeration to call it a cradle of scientists!"

"But you, who should be striving to become a scientist, are participating in music programs; it's simply a waste of your potential!"

If the first part was only targeting the work, the second part was a direct personal attack, because Ding Dasheng knew who to criticize to get traffic.

After hearing his words, the scene erupted in an uproar, and everyone's eyes instinctively fell on Shen Qiushan, wanting to see how he would handle the situation.

This is being broadcast live!

If not handled properly, it could become a broadcasting accident!

At this moment, Zhang Zhihua was filled with regret. If he had known that Ding Dasheng would be so aggressive, he would never have chosen Ding Dasheng as the speaker for the professional review.

"Professor Ding Dasheng's questions are very pointed, however, some of these questions are not within the scope of our discussion."

Zhang Zhihua quickly stepped in to smooth things over, but as the host, he didn't want to completely abandon this rather controversial topic.

He turned to Shen Qiushan and asked, "Teacher Shen, how do you respond to Teacher Ding Dasheng's comments about the song?"

"He's right about everything!"

Shen Qiushan made a surprising statement, surprisingly not denying it at all.

"Uh"

Zhang Zhihua was stunned. He had thought that a very difficult "verbal battle" was about to begin.

To everyone's surprise, Shen Qiushan's attitude was so "casual".

"Teacher Shen, what do you think of the comments about you neglecting your studies and indulging in frivolous pursuits?"

Zhang Zhihua mustered his courage and pressed for more information.

Shen Qiushan repeated his previous statement: "He's right about everything!"
