The song continued to reverberate in the studio, and the song came to the chorus—
“May there always be power behind you. May you become your own sun. May you have dreams and the courage to never compromise…”
On the television screen, the audience below the stage followed the music and shook their hands. Everyone was immersed in the music. When the remaining three judges heard the chorus, they no longer hesitated and pressed the red button in front of their seats almost at the same time.
Xiaoxiao, who was in front of the television, stood up excitedly. “The four of them actually turned around! Oh my god, Li Ya is so amazing!’
Lu Zhen also smiled. “I knew she could do it.”
Talented people would always shine.
After the song ended, the audience at the event location applauded crazily. The mentors also stood up from their seats and applauded.
The emcee came to Li Ya’s side with an excited expression. “Congratulations, Erica. You’ve become the first singer to be recognized by the four mentors since our show started broadcasting. You’re really amazing!’
Li Ya was very relaxed when she sang, but after singing, she was a little nervous in front of so many people on and off the stage. She smiled shyly and her voice even trembled. “Thank you. I didn’t expect that either. Thank you for your approval.”
As Li Ya was the first contestant on the show to get the four mentors to turn around, the show specially asked the emcee to ask her a few more questions.
The emcee thought for a moment and asked, “Before you went on stage, you said that this song is for an idol you like very much. Can you tell us who this person is?
“She’s a very famous actress in the entertainment industry. I like her very much. She has many outstanding qualities. Her beauty is not only in her appearance, but also in her heart. She made me feel the power of an idol, so I wrote this song for her. However, I don’t want to say her name. Please forgive me.”
The emcee said regretfully, “Alright, then we can only let this beautiful lady remain mysterious. However, this song is undoubtedly a very outstanding original work. Let us congratulate Erica again for successfully advancing!’
Next, it was time for Li Ya to choose the mentor she liked. In the end, she chose an older famous male singer as her mentor.
Xiaoxiao looked at the screen and said in shock, “Sister Zhenzhen, Li Ya has met you before. Could her song be about you? Oh my god!’
At this moment, Lu Zhen’s mood was also fluctuating. She did not expect Li Ya to write a song for her and even sing it in the first episode. Lu Zhen was touched.
Lu Zhen took out her phone and sent Li Ya a message. “I watched the show. You performed very well and the song was very good.”
At this moment, Li Ya was receiving training from her mentor in the production team’s training camp. The show was filmed last week and was only edited and broadcasted this week, so she had only seen the first episode of the edited show in the training camp today.
When she saw herself appear on the stage, Li Ya felt a little ashamed. Especially when the emcee called her ‘Erica”, she almost didn’t want to admit that it was her name.
Before going on stage, one of the judges suggested, “Your name is too common. Why don’t you give it a stage name? You’re quite capable. You’ll definitely be able to achieve something in the music industry in the end. A good stage name is necessary. Why don’t you call yourself Erica? If you agree, I’ll apply for that name.”
After the emcee recited her stage name, Li Ya watched the scene of herself singing on the television with the other contestants in the training camp.
Behind her, many contestants were discussing softly. “She’s so awesome. This song is so nice. I’ll never be able to write such a song in my life…”
Li Ya couldn’t help but blush. She thought of Lu Zhen and wondered if she would hear this song…
Lu Zhen was usually so busy, so she shouldn’t specially watch her variety show, right? Although she had mentioned to Lu Zhen before that she would participate in a variety show, perhaps Lu Zhen didn’t take it to heart…
Beep! Beep! Li Ya’s phone suddenly rang. As soon as she turned on her cell phone, she saw a message from Lu Zhen.
Li Ya widened her eyes and almost couldn’t believe it for a moment. She read it a few more times and was so excited that her face turned red. She hugged her cell phone for a long time before she remembered to reply to Lu Zhen. She hurriedly typed, “I didn’t expect you to watch the show.. Do you like this song?”
