I was slacking off on a dating reality show when the female guests treated me like a treasure chest.

Chen Nian smiled slightly. He wanted to say that he wasn't nervous about his performance, but rather about the sheer number of people present.

Being stared at by so many people makes me feel really awkward.

However, at this point, saying these things is pointless. For now, let's adopt Su Xiao's suggestion: look into the distance when we go on stage.

As the performance officially began, tens of thousands of people had already crowded in front of the stage, and in addition to the square, many people were also standing on the road outside the square to watch.

Anyway, you can't see clearly anymore, and most people just hear the sound.

But the point is to get hyped up; if others cheer and scream, the audience behind them should just follow suit.

Although 20,000 people came in, not everyone squeezed onto the stage to watch the performance; many were also experiencing the resort's other facilities.

With a rare 50% discount all day, the shops were packed with people.

The lively atmosphere continued until dusk. Around 6 p.m., the performance at the event officially ended, and the cultural performance entered a brief break.

At this moment, Chen Nian and the others, who had spent the afternoon in the lounge on the second floor of the operations center, were having lunch.

"Speaking of which, what number am I again?" Sukh asked, having chosen to dance.

"I'm number fourteen. Are there any shorter than me?" Tang Xi asked.

Finally, after comparing the options, the order of performances for the evening became clear.

"No way, I'm the first one?" Tang Xi was a little surprised; she didn't really want to be the first one to go on stage.

"The first one is good, we can call it a day after we finish dancing," Xia Yao said.

Chen Nian nodded in agreement. The first one was indeed good. To be honest, he also wanted to go up as soon as possible, but the second one was the best. With Tang Xi leading the way, he figured he wouldn't be so nervous.

Looking at Tang Xi today, he's dancing the same dance, but Tang Xi's outfit is much cooler than his.

She wore a pale yellow dress with a bow tie at the neckline that draped down to her waist, giving her an ethereal and fairy-like appearance.

"What number am I again?" Chen Nian muttered, leaning over to take a look. He was number eighteen, which meant he was the fourth person to go on stage, and the final round of the chorus would be his performance with Liu Ting.

This is also the final performance of this cultural event.

Soon, darkness fell, and before we knew it, the sky was filled with stars.

The entire resort was illuminated, and spotlights shone back and forth in the air on the stage. By this time, most of the tourists had already eaten and were gradually walking toward the stage.

The production team of "Heartbeat Beat" was shocked by the record-breaking data during today's live broadcast.

By 7:00 AM, the number of viewers in the live stream had reached over 60 million, and the total number of viewers had exceeded 100 million.

Moreover, this number is still rising.

For Chinese people, watching a live broadcast of such a large-scale performance is like getting a free concert.

Moreover, this is a concert featuring a lineup of multiple guest performers.

"Alright, time to go!" Tang Xi glanced at the time; there were less than twenty minutes left before her performance.

"Okay, let's go."

"If you don't sing well, we'll be trending on social media!"

"....."

The group walked out of the dressing room in a grand procession, went downstairs, and headed towards the stage.

"These are the guests from Heartbeat Beat!"

"Ah, I see Liu Ting!"

"Wow, Li Tian is so handsome."

"Qi Feng, I saw it..."

Young people who had been waiting near the business center for an hour or two were now taking out their phones and snapping photos like crazy.

As the most popular variety show on the internet right now, even in these small coastal towns, many young people are fans of the show.

Chen Nian followed behind them, looking at the bustling crowds outside the fences on both sides, and exclaimed, "What's going on? Where are my fans?"

Hearing this, Xia Yao said quietly, "I might have a few fans, but you can't say for sure."

"Come on, I must have a few fans who like my looks, right?" Chen Nian said.

"Looks are everything..." Xia Yao said speechlessly after looking at their lineup. "When it comes to looks, it's really hard to stand out unless you're absolutely stunning."

Chen Nian shrugged, "We can still fight for it."

The next moment, a flock of crows floated across the live stream chat...

The short journey of just a few minutes felt like a large-scale fashion show.

Upon arriving at the stage, everyone entered the backstage passage, and then the host came on stage to liven up the atmosphere.

In the final few minutes, Tang Xi composed herself, and the next moment, the host's voice rang out.

"Next, let's welcome our first guest of the evening, Tang Xi, known as the goddess of web dramas!!"

"She brought us a classical dance!"

As soon as the host finished speaking, the cheers of tens of thousands of people instantly drowned out the beach square, and even the sound of the surging waves became insignificant.

The lights focused, the music started, and a figure stood in the light and shadow in the passageway.

Amidst the attention of the crowd, Tang Xi stepped onto the stage and began to dance to the music.

At that moment, both the live stream audience and the live audience erupted in cheers.

To the ethereal strains of classical music, Tang Xi danced gracefully, the ribbons in her hands flowing like clouds and water, leaving traces in the air.

Chen Nian and the others watched this scene from backstage and were quite surprised.

"Wow, that's impressive! Would you call that professional?"

"They must have studied it professionally; I certainly couldn't do that."

Several girls saw Tang Xi's dance and felt that they couldn't compare to her.

Chen Nian and others, on the other hand, were more interested in appreciating the beauty of women dancing; watching beautiful women dance has always been a refined pastime.

As the dance ended, the music abruptly stopped.

As is customary, their program also includes a brief interaction with the host, mostly consisting of simple questions and answers.

For example, what's it like visiting the resort? What's the scenery like here?

And, there's also a topic from their show's production team.

"Tang Xi, as the first contestant to go on stage, do you feel confident that you will win the votes tonight?" the host asked.

Tonight, all their performance rankings will be based primarily on the number of votes received from viewers in the live stream.

Tang Xi hesitated for a moment upon hearing this, then smiled slightly and said, "I'm confident of finishing in the top three, but I can't guarantee anything beyond that, haha."

After the interaction, Tang Xi thanked everyone and stepped down from the stage.

Following her was Li Tian, ​​who chose to sing.

"Now, let's welcome our first handsome guy of the evening, Li Tian!"

"He will bring us one of his signature songs, Wind and Flowers."

The host spoke passionately.

Below, a group of girls were screaming wildly.

"Li Tian!"

"Li Tian!"

Upon seeing this, Chen Nian gasped in surprise and asked, "Does Li Tian have that many fans?"

"It's hard to say, maybe his agent bought it for him, and he's handing out money in the crowd right now," Liu Ting said quietly from the side.

Li Tian, ​​who was about to go on stage, almost tripped when he heard this. He turned around and glared at Liu Ting, then straightened his clothes and walked towards the stage.

The next moment, the accompaniment to his song echoed throughout the entire resort; it was an inspirational song.
