Music Festival Live Broadcast!

There's a buzz on the scene!

And online discussions are buzzing too!

With the Best New Artist award being handed out, media onsite couldn't wait to release their pre-written reports, with a speed that was jaw-dropping:

"Music Festival's opening shot: Blueberry wins Best New Artist!"

It's not that the media have the power of prophecy and knew in advance that Blueberry would win.

They simply had drafted winning announcements for several nominees of each award category.

An old routine.

Whoever wins gets their corresponding announcement released.

Meanwhile, viewers watching the live broadcast and munching on melon seeds are making various comments below the news.

The question of greatest concern to everyone, however, is: "I just want to know when Fish Papa will go on stage to accept the award?"

Below, there's a reply filled with a sense of ritual:

"When the battle song plays!"

As for what that battle song is, opinions vary.

Some think it's "Nocturne";

Others think it's "Blue and White Porcelain";

And some believe it's "The Seventh Chapter of Night" and so on.

All twelve songs from Xian Yu's twelve months have been cued up.

...

Back to the scene.

The award ceremony continues.

When it comes to the fifth award, An Hong suddenly says with a smile, "We all know that this Music Festival has one teacher who has received a total of thirteen award nominations, and how can tonight's awards go without him..."

Whoosh.

The big screen immediately switches to a shot of Lin Yuan.

Lin Yuan's handsome face, flawless from every angle, appears on the big screen.

The female host, Li Qing, clutches her chest and blurts out, "Photographer, add a drumstick!"

The audience bursts into laughter.

Upon Sun Yaohuo's prompting, Lin Yuan realizes he's being filmed and promptly flashes a socially acceptable smile.

"Please, Teacher Admirable Fish, stop exuding charisma!"

An Hong jokes, then says, "The next award to be presented is, the Best Official Song for Promotions of the Year!"

"Huh?"

The female host glances at the script in her hand, and with a smirk, says: "This is the most nominated award of the evening at the Music Festival, let's see which works are nominated?"

At the podium.

The lights dim.

A voice rings out in everyone's ears:

"The Music Festival's Best Official Song for Promotions of the Year, the nominated works are..."

"Yu Dynasty: I Believe!"

"Yu Dynasty: Fly Higher!"

"Yu Dynasty: Believe in Yourself!"

"Yu Dynasty: Surpass Your Dreams!"

"Yu Dynasty: A Brave Heart!"

"Yu Dynasty: Welcome to Qin Continent!"

Each song's climax plays for a few seconds.

Seeing the list of nominees, every musician's expression on the scene turns odd, each holding back a "mmp" wondering whether to express it or not.

Online.

Viewers watching the live broadcast burst into laughter:

"This round of competition is so damn intense!"

"Seven songs nominated, I'm really curious who will win (dog head)!"

"I boldly predict that Yu Dynasty wins!"

"Prophet, your words have been taken!"

"I have calculated, this round will definitely be Yu Dynasty's win, if it's not Yu Dynasty I'll stand on my head and eat rice cakes!"

"With a one in seven chance, you dare to bet, you're a wolf indeed!"

"Xian Yu: You might not believe it, but I have to defeat six versions of myself to win!"

"Why bother with suspense for this award? Is your Music Festival really interesting? Just report Xian Yu's ID number directly!"

The nominations were already officially announced.

This scene was expected by all.

But when it really happened, everyone truly wanted to laugh.

This year, no other official promotional song could compete with the Bluelympics promotions, and all the Bluelympics cheer songs were by Xian Yu!

"The winner of the Best Official Promotional Song of the festival is 'Welcome to Qin Continent'!"

An Hong announces the results promptly, as there's really no suspense; Lin Yuan goes up to the stage with the singers of the Yu Dynasty to collect the award. Winning the award as a group, they all feel quite comfortable.

The award presenter is Mike.

Upon receiving the award, Lin Yuan, as the representative, delivers the acceptance speech.

Lin Yuan hadn't prepared an acceptance speech beforehand; although Gu Dong had prepared one for him, he found it too troublesome. At such times, simply sharing some heartfelt thoughts was enough: "Thank you for your support. I'm very happy to receive this award. This is the first time Yu Dynasty has won an award as a group. In the future, Yu Dynasty will continue to release works performed in a group format. I hope everyone will like them, and I also hope that everyone will pay more attention to the singers of Yu Dynasty, each of whom is truly outstanding!"

Applause erupts.

Excitement is written on the faces of each Yu Dynasty singer. Seven people lift the trophy together, then bow to the audience and exit the stage.

...

One minute later.

Lin Yuan has barely returned to his seat, his bottom not even warm, when host An Hong announces another award.

This time, it's for the Best Music Video of the Year!

The winning work is "Sugar"!

And the final winner is still Xian Yu!

There's no suspense for this award either— the music video for "Sugar" went viral in October, its click-through rates exploding!

Why is Lin Yuan the winner?

Because the creative concept of the MV is by Lin Yuan, the lead singer is Lin Yuan, and he's also the main character!

This award can only be received by Lin Yuan alone, not the MV director or the entire Yu Dynasty.

Stepping back onto the stage.

An Hong jokes, "We shouldn't have let you go down just now."

Lin Yuan smiles and, taking the award from Maestro, says into the mic:

"Thank you everyone for your support, thanks to the director of this MV, Kuang Li. This song was made for my elder's daughter's wedding, but he said that this song was not only for his daughter's wedding but also for every couple in the world. May you grow old together and be united forever. Lastly, thank you to every singer in Yu Dynasty for their help; it was with their support that this song could be completed!"
