"I declare-"
He Jiong dragged out his voice.
The 500 audience members held their breaths in anticipation.
"Bang bang!"
"Bang bang!"
The accompaniment teacher played the heartbeat.
The heartbeats that surrounded the entire studio happened to be stuck on the heartbeats of every audience member.
A tense atmosphere spread among everyone.
Deng Ziqi subconsciously covered her mouth.
Han Lei and Han Hong stared at He Jiong, even more nervous than when they heard their own results.
"Li Zongsheng received 447 votes!”
As soon as he finished speaking, the audience instantly fell silent. In the next moment, they were in an uproar.
"447 votes? What was going on? Not even as high as Teacher Han Hong and Han Lei's votes?”
"Undercover?"
"No! It was not a shady deal. If I'm abandoning my vote, are there others who are abandoning their vote as well?”
"I also abstained."
"Abandoned votes plus one."
There was quite a stir in the audience.
Hiss!
Ten seconds later, everyone understood what was going on and gasped.
447 votes.
In other words, nearly one-tenth of the audience chose to abandon their votes.
Why did he abandon his vote?
Everyone's hearts were as clear as a mirror.
It was too difficult to choose between Lu Yang and Li Zongsheng!
He felt sorry for whoever he chose.
Many of the audience felt sorry for Lu Yang after they voted for Li Zongsheng.
There were even quite a number of people who wanted to vote for Lu Yang.
"Then…how many votes will Lu Yang get?”
The number of people who abandoned the vote was fixed.
In a round of voting, abandoning a vote was equivalent to giving up all voting rights.
Therefore, the total number of votes for both of them was still the same.
" Next, announce Lu Yang's votes-"
" Lu Yang's final tally for this match is…"
"Bang bang!"
"Bang bang!"
The loud heartbeat sounded again.
Lu Yang stood beside He Jiong.
All the audience members pricked up their ears, afraid that they might have misheard.
"Lu Yang's final tally for this match is 447 votes!!”
"Congratulations to Lu Yang and Teacher Li Zongsheng for obtaining the same number of votes. This match is a draw!!”
Whoosh!
An earth-shattering uproar broke out below the stage.
"It's a tie!"
"It's actually a tie!"
"F * ck! Lu Yang and Teacher Li Zongsheng tied?”
" Lu Yang is awesome!"
"I'm kneeling to Big Boss Lu Yang!"
The audience was in an uproar.
There was no winner or loser. This was the perfect ending in their hearts.
Backstage, Deng Ziqi, Han Hong, and Han Lei stood up from the sofa almost at the same time.
“OMG!! Lu Yang had actually tied with Teacher Li Zongsheng.”Deng Ziqi's eyes widened.
"Phew, Lu Yang, this kid, he's really worried.”Han Hong and Han Lei heaved a sigh of relief.
"And now-I declare-"
He Jiong held Lu Yang and Li Zongsheng's wrists with both hands, ready to announce a draw and both of them would advance.
However…
"Wait a minute." Li Zongsheng's magnetic voice sounded.
He Jiong was stunned.
"Hmm? Teacher Li Zongsheng, what's wrong?" He Jiong looked at Li Zongsheng.
"Could it be that Li Zongsheng suspects that there's a conspiracy?”
The audience fell silent.
Lu Yang looked at Li Zongsheng and didn't think too much of it.
Why would the godfather of music cause trouble on a music variety show?
"I vote for Lu Yang."
Li Zongsheng's words were shocking!
" What?!"
The audience was stunned.
Li Zongsheng's words shocked everyone, and they couldn't calm down for a moment.
"A vote for Lu Yang?"
"Then wouldn't Lu Yang win?"
"What kind of suicidal style is this?"
Li Zongsheng's approach was puzzling.
"Why?" Deng Ziqi was puzzled.
Han Hong and Han Lei reacted after a brief moment of shock.
They nodded at Li Zongsheng, understanding his intentions.
"Teacher Li Zongsheng…you don't have to do this.”
Lu Yang also saw through Li Zongsheng's thoughts.
Li Zongsheng shook his head.
"I lost."
"Lu Yang, you're very talented and have a lot of potential.”
Li Zongsheng looked at Lu Yang with admiration and anticipation in his eyes.
"The Dragon Country's music industry has been dominated by sad love songs for too long.”
"I once tried to compose a sweet love song, but I failed.”
"It's not just me. I believe that many creators like me have failed many times.”
"But you succeeded."
"I'm very amazed by this 'I Have to.”
"I can already foresee it. In a few days, this song will be playing in the streets and alleys.”
"The entire Dragon Country's music industry will set off a trend of sweet love songs.”
"The music industry has been filled with sad tunes for so long. It's time to change.”
Li Zongsheng's words silenced everyone.
The audience, the singers, and the program team were all in deep thought.
They agreed with Li Zongsheng.
"Well said."
"I've always felt that this kid is like a catalyst. Sooner or later, he'll be able to inspire a high-spirited melody in the music industry.”
"I also want to vote for Lu Yang."
Han Hong and Han Lei agreed.
"Teacher He, announce the results." Li Zongsheng said.
He Jiong looked at the production team, and Hong Xiao nodded heavily.
"Alright, I'll do it. Our program team fully respects the wishes of the guests.”
"Now, I announce that Lu Yang has won this round with 448 votes!”
" Let us congratulate Lu Yang!"
He Jiong raised Lu Yang's hand high.
"Hualala!"
As soon as he finished speaking, everyone stood up and applauded!!
