My wife is in my arms

Chapter 1548 Setting Sail (Part 9)

Finally, it was Taylor's turn to make his grand entrance.

This top international female singer caused the music judges to scream as soon as she appeared on stage. In the past, this female singer would dance on stage, but during the afternoon recording, she did not dance. Instead, she stood on the stage with the microphone and started singing.

Zhang You listened attentively.

Like him, the other contestants who returned to the dressing room after their performances also watched Taylor's performance through the screens projected from the stage onto the televisions in the dressing room.

Taylor has excellent breath control and a rich tone. Her vocal production mainly relies on chest voice, which is the same vocal production method used by many singers abroad. This vocal production method results in excellent tone closure and glissando.

During the performance, Taylor casually tossed her blonde hair, causing many male fans in the music jury to become excited once again.

After she finished singing, all the singers returned to the stage.

The recording process went relatively smoothly. After all, they are all professional singers. If they had to record their songs twice, even songs that they could hardly make a living from, it would seem very unprofessional.

"Taylor, you are as beautiful and charming as ever."

"This is what the host, Depp, said with a smile."

"Thank you"

Taylor replied politely.

"You know what? A lot of people are jealous of Kyle. If I could, I'd like to beat him up, because his girlfriend is you."

"Nedrup laughed."

Zhang You stood on the stage expressionlessly. Simps exist everywhere, but compared to the reserved ones in China, foreign simps are undoubtedly much more unrestrained. After the host, Depp, finished his simping, it was time for the next segment.

A staff member pushed a machine that looked like a lottery ticket draw onto the stage. Then, the host, Nidepp, explained some rules, which were basically that the host would use a remote control to select the type of song the singers needed to prepare for the next episode. The music jury in the audience shouted "Stop!" and changed the method to drawing lots.

The type of song is marked on the sphere inside the machine.

Ladies and gentlemen

After the machine was brought onto the stage, Derek Yee addressed the music jury in a booming voice, "Please raise your hands. I'll choose one, and then he/she will press the red button to select the song genre."

Hearing what Depp said...

Everyone in the audience raised their hands. Derek pointed directly at a very beautiful woman and said, "You're the lucky lady, because... I like you."

Zhang You was completely convinced.

If he had known that "Voices Abroad" was like this, he should have found another way to get here. That way, he wouldn't have had to stand on stage watching the host, Derek Yee, go into heat.

This is so damn annoying.

He wanted to go back early to take care of his child and spend time with singer Liu Fei!

After the woman came on stage, Derek took the microphone and asked, "Honey, what's your favorite genre of music?"

"Rock"

The very beautiful woman answered with a smile.

"Wow"

Depp exclaimed in surprise, then said in an exaggerated tone, "I like rock too, honey. We have the same interests. Let me ask you something else: which singer do you like best on stage? Is it Taylor, Katie, or Mars...? It can't be Mars, he has a full beard. Mars, I have to remind you, you need to shave. It's disrespectful to us beautiful ladies."

Mars subconsciously reached up and touched his beard. Then, Depp pointed to Adam and said, "Our Adam," before he could have continued talking about Zhang You, but the host immediately ended the conversation.

The discrimination is quite obvious.

Zhang You said he had witnessed something today.

Aside from not mentioning him, neither Binbu nor Li Zhen were mentioned either, and their expressions turned rather unpleasant; their smiles were still on their faces, but they were somewhat stiff.

At Nedrup's instruction, the woman pressed the red button.

The machine started spinning rapidly, and then a small red ball rolled down the aisle and landed at the exit. Nedrup picked it up, looked at it, and said to the woman with regret, "Honey, you didn't get our favorite rock ball."

talking.

Nedep waved the ball with one side facing the audience and the contestants on stage, saying "Country Folk." As soon as he finished speaking, the words "Country Folk" appeared on the large screen behind the stage.

Zhang You was stunned for a moment.

Then, a smile appeared on his lips.

What a coincidence.

really.

Men who can travel through time are blessed by God.

If he were to switch to a different genre, Zhang You would have to think it over carefully, but when it comes to "country folk," he doesn't even need to consider it; a perfect English song immediately comes to mind.

After learning the type of song to be recorded in the next episode, Zhang You felt half relieved. The other half was the arrangement. When he saw that it was a country folk song, Taylor's fair face lit up with a smile. She had followed the path of a country singer when she debuted, so this type of song not only posed no challenge for her, but was practically a free pass.

"Ladies and gentlemen, the next segment is drawing songs for cover and adaptation. First, I must explain that the participating singers this time come from several different countries, and their languages ​​and scripts are different from English, which makes the adaptation very difficult. It's impossible to do it like in the first season. However, 'Voices from Abroad' is a fair program, so when adapting songs by singers Zhang, Binbu, and Li Zhen, we will choose their English songs. But these three singers have released relatively few English songs, so we will take out the songs from the previous episode and let them choose one to adapt."

Zhang You was not surprised.

He knew this when he arrived in the morning, and it was indeed true. If he were to actually adapt Binbu and Li Zhen's songs, Zhang You would have no way of doing so.

If he could speak Korean and Japanese.

He wrote many songs that were widely popular around the world long ago, like "Gangnam Style." One song alone would be enough for Zhang You to live comfortably for the rest of his life. Zhang You has heard how much money Psy made with this song; it seems to be around 100 million. And that's just from the song's revenue. There are also additional commercial endorsements and such. In short, just this one song propelled Psy's personal net worth into the ranks of South Korean chaebols.

Besides this song, there are also "Fireworks," "Change," and "Bingo" by the Turtle Group. Zhang You could have easily swept the charts with these songs, but unfortunately, he doesn't understand Korean or Japanese at all.

As for Japanese songs, there's Thelma Aoyama's "Stay With Me," which holds a Guinness World Record, as well as Shinji Tanimura's "Star" and some songs by Mika Nakashima.

Taylor was the first to be drawn.

She drew a song by Mars.

Mars drew the English version of Zhang You's "Goodbye Kiss". When it was Zhang You's turn to draw, the big screen had just flashed a few songs by different singers when Zhang You shouted "Stop".

The big screen froze instantly.

The song title "Love" appeared on the big screen.

Taylor glanced at Zhang You instinctively and said, "Zhang, I'm really looking forward to it."
