Chapter 258: Chapter 213: The Grand Finals Begin! (4k)_2

Another visiting judge from overseas, the famous performer Tian Yehua also said:

"Good fighters need no pomp and glory. Although Bai Xi is not as expressive as Gan Yanyu, what we can know is that she has always been winning!"

And on various online forums.

Since Gan Yanyu has been officially revealed to be the recent super popular cellist "Cat" on short video platforms, and her partner is the up-and-coming talented composer Moonlight, naturally, they have also received widespread attention from netizens.

[Go Miss Cat! I believe you will definitely win!]

[You got this! I can’t be there at the competition, but I’ll definitely watch the live stream online!]

[Even if you lose, it’s okay, you still have us!]

[After the competition, waiting for the concert with Mr. Moonlight!!]

[.....]

Despite the large number of fans following them.

There is a serious problem involved.

The majority of fans do not understand music competitions at all.

Nor do they realize the significance of the Yingqin Cup to Moonlight and Cat.

In the eyes of many fans.

The contests are merely a side job for Moonlight and Cat; creating music is their main business.

So, although most people keep saying "keep going, keep going" out loud.

In their hearts, what’s more important than the result of the competition is the chance to see their idols perform a stunning concert on stage.

Upon seeing all sorts of media predictions, news interviews.

Everyone is more astonished.

Feeling like losing would actually seem expected.

Even if they lose to this strong opponent, as long as they perform beautifully, it’s still a beautiful story for Moonlight and Cat.....

.....

What Gan Yanyu absolutely cannot accept, however, is losing.

In the resting room.

The private room.

Gan Yanyu sits in front of the makeup mirror, taking deep breaths repeatedly.

Then,

she says in one breath:

"Come on... Yanyu... Come on! You’re the strongest, the greatest, the hardest working, the most diligent....."

At this moment, Lin Tian opens the door and walks in.

"....."

Gan Yanyu is startled and hurriedly sits up straight.

Then meets Lin Tian’s gaze.

The two remain silent for two seconds.

"What are you doing?"

Lin Tian is puzzled.

"Self-encouragement....."

"This seems like something out of a pyramid scheme."

Lin Tian can’t help but ridicule.

In Lin Tian’s mind, only people in pyramid scheme dens do this sort of self-motivation routine every day.....

"Could it be that the method you’re using to overcome stage fright is this self-hypnosis trick?"

"....."

"You guess."

Gan Yanyu doesn’t answer directly but turns her head away.

Her face, however, reveals a faint smile that’s hard to detect.

"I just went to the reception to check."

Lin Tian brings the conversation back, "Tuoba is indeed no longer sitting at the judges’ table, now sitting in the middle is Teacher Yao Han."

"Good."

"This final round, we can fight a fair and square battle!"

Lin Tian says cheerfully.

Here he must praise Mr. Gan again.

Despite the criticism from old man Tuoba during the preliminaries.

Mr. Gan’s mentality wasn’t really affected.

All this, aside from the fact that Mr. Gan’s own mentality has reached a certain level.

It also has to do with her complete trust in Lin Tian.

Especially before the semifinal.

At that time.

Lin Tian and Gan Yanyu were practicing the "D Major Canon".

He really felt.

They could beat any opponent.

But such a feeling was fleeting.

Now, Lin Tian even feels that he and Mr. Gan can’t even connect on a basic level anymore.

...

Before long.

The big TV in the resting room turns on automatically.

The screen shows the condition of the competition venue.

The concert hall is packed, without a single empty seat.

Surpassing the attendance of the semifinals.

Furthermore, there are many younger faces among the audience.

Clearly, because of the identity of Moonlight and Cat, they have attracted many college students to watch the competition.

These university students are really something when it comes to snatching up tickets and scoring deals; the older generation of musicians can’t compete with them!

What this led to was the competition looking as spectacular as a concert venue.

These young spectators are even more passionate and fervent, sitting in the audience, chatting with friends, with excited expressions on their faces.

The director even captured footage of several fans wearing T-shirts with the "Moonlight and Cat" LOGO.

Since banners and light sticks aren’t allowed in the concert hall, is this their way of showing support for the contestants?

Many people who saw this on the big screen showed even more excited expressions; it’s always nice to see like-minded fans.

Until...

A few fans in T-shirts faced the broadcast camera and held up their "Rainy Day Wet" albums high.

Damn it!

Showing off here, are they!

Suddenly, the audience was filled with chirping and fragrant language...

Countless fans were using their actual actions to express their disdain for those who showed off their purchased albums.

As the stage lights focused.

The host, dressed in a blue elegant gown, stepped onto the stage.

The audience finally settled down and turned their attention to the center stage.

With a smile that met CCTV standards, the host said:

"Welcome everyone to the final of the Yingqin Cup cello competition in Qingjiang Province."

"We are about to start the last competition of our professional group!"

As the voice faded.

On the big screen behind the stage, photos of Gan Yanyu and Bai Xi appeared!

The whole venue erupted into thunderous applause.

Many people stood up, excitedly whistling and cheering.

These two photos were taken after the semi-finals, with Gan Yanyu and Bai Xi standing on both sides of the stage.

Not only did they max out the confrontation vibe, but they also created a sense of atmosphere for their faces under the lights.

Many Moon Cat fans who came to watch the competition for the first time couldn’t help but exclaim.

"This sister Bai Xi is also very pretty!"

"Only one-third as cute as Miss Cat, but still good!"

"Holy shit! Look at this..."

Soon.

Their historical accolades appeared on the big screen.

A full page.

"Come on, are these players really at the same level?!"

Seeing this, the fans of Moon Cat felt like the sky had fallen!

Imagine coming to watch your idol’s music competition for the first time and seeing such a stark contrast in the photos.

"It’s over, I have a bad feeling for Miss Cat..."

"I’ve never heard of these awards, there must be some padding, right?"

"It’s hard to say, there are many dubious awards in music competitions."

Suddenly, a group of fans who came in T-shirts to watch the competition started talking amongst themselves, looking very tense.

At that moment, an old fan of Gan Yanyu who was also sitting nearby couldn’t bear to watch and turned around,

"Enough with the grumbling, you lot!"

The old fan said earnestly,

"Bai Xi is a cellist who deserves respect; she has won a lot of acclaim abroad for Qingjiang!"

"It’s meaningful to win against such players!"

...

Backstage.

Seeing the grand scene on stage, even Lin Tian couldn’t help feeling a bit nervous.

Even though he always said to stay level-headed at the finals, to relax and enjoy.

Standing here, the pressure is still immense.

Just then.

Gan Yanyu, who had just come back from the restroom, pushed open the door.

She stumbled in.

"What’s wrong?"

Lin Tian was startled and quickly stepped forward to help Gan Yanyu.

"I slipped in the restroom... twisted my ankle..."

Gan Yanyu said despairingly,

"Lin Tian, I remember you learned massage, right... Can you set a bone?"
