The "Era Music King" is about to begin.
The program team has been hyping it up for a full two months.
The attention has exploded.
The entire world is waiting for this unprecedented grand competition.
Meanwhile, several countries participating overseas are using all sorts of resources to promote their producers and singers.
The competition among the world's top producers and the collision of entertainment cultures from various countries are definitely full of highlights.
United States.
Producer Sean and singer Brown have arrived at the airport.
The entire airport is swarmed by frenzied fans.
Sean, in his thirties and in his prime, not only possesses a rugged, manly appearance but also has an unparalleled influence in the American music scene. His reputation is high worldwide, and he has consistently dominated the Era Music Chart at number one.
Coupled with Brown, a new generation singer known as the "Music Demon King," who recently won the "Strongest Voice of the Era" competition in the United States.
This pairing is undoubtedly one of the strongest contenders for the championship!
"Brown, are you ready to stand at the pinnacle of the global music scene with me?" Sean glanced at the screaming fans around him, fiddled with his ear, and then lightly chuckled at Brown beside him.
Brown's lips curved up: "With Mr. Sean here, I have great confidence in winning the championship."
After speaking, he blew a kiss to the surrounding fans.
The fans immediately went wild!
"Ahhh! Go Brown!"
"He actually blew a kiss at me! Oh my god!!"
"Brown, I'll happily go crazy with you if you win! I won't wear protection! I can take medicine!!"
"God! I can't imagine how this combination of Sean and Brown will crush their opponents in the competition!"
"Go Brown! Go Sean!!"
These fans screamed and shouted frantically!
Some female fans even took off their underwear and waved them in their hands!
Whistles echoed from the scene!
In this free nation,
Such actions from female fans are not uncommon.
The flight is about to take off.
Surrounded by a large group of fans, Sean and Brown boarded the plane to Cuba.
...
South Korea.
Capital Airport.
The same scene as in the United States is unfolding.
The airport entrance is crowded with people.
All of them are holding light sticks for their fans.
When a van arrived at the parking area,
The crowd erupted in deafening screams!
"Ahhh! Sung Hyun oppa!!"
"Go Sung Hyun oppa!!"
"Ahhh! He's so handsome, I'm going to suffocate!"
"Sung Hyun oppa, let the world see the strength of Great Han Nation!!"
"Come on, no matter what place oppa gets, fans will support you!!"
As those fans were screaming,
Three more vans drove up from a distance.
When these cars stopped,
The doors opened.
A pair of fair, long legs emerged from the car, followed by Park Yoon Min, dressed in the group's uniform, walking out.
She swayed her hips, each step exuding allure, with the other five members following behind her.
"EOY! EOY! EOY!!"
"Yoon Min! My goddess!!"
Amidst the frenzied screams of the fans,
Park Yoon Min smiled sweetly at them, causing another round of deafening screams!
Crazy!
If it weren't for the security guards holding them back, one smile from her would have been enough to get her torn apart by the frenzied male fans on the scene.
But Park Yoon Min seemed completely unfazed. She walked up to Kim Sung Hyun in high heels, avoided the fans' gaze, and winked at him: "Sung Hyun oppa, shall we go?"
The members of the group EOY behind her also gathered around.
Surrounded by a group of sexy and hot girls, Kim Sung Hyun subtly took a deep breath, inhaling the myriad of intoxicating scents.
"Hahaha! The pleasant journey begins!"
He spread his arms wide.
Leading the flock of beauties, he walked into the airport.
...
Japan.
Compared to the United States and South Korea, Japan's fan culture is more closed off. They mostly operate on a membership system, and due to their unique fan culture, Japanese idols are much more approachable towards their fans than those in other countries.
"Thank you, you've worked hard!" Momoka Kanade, the singer participating in this year's "Era Music King" and also the champion of a music competition held in Japan, despite her cute appearance, is actually most skilled in rock music. Her live performance impact can even rival that of top American singers.
Of course, there are many reasons why Japanese idols treat their fans with such humility.
The intensity of their fans is no less than that of other countries.
It was still a sea of people, with deafening screams.
However, while other countries had singers and producers together, Momoka Kanade did not wait for producer Miyamoto Sawa.
Because she dared not.
In Japan's idol culture, "dating is forbidden," and even getting a little close to someone of the opposite sex can result in fans' curses, and even more extreme threats like sending razor blades.
This "sending razor blades" is not just a figure of speech; it has actually happened.
There are too many extreme fans in this country.
Shortly after Momoka Kanade left,
Miyamoto Sawa arrived at the scene.
As the hottest producer in Japan right now, he also received cheers from many fans.
...
"Susu, why aren't our schedules announced? Look at the contestants online, they're so grand."
On the plane, Lin Yanyu handed her phone to Su Yu.
They had come to the airport with their schedules concealed.
So the fans had no idea the two had already left.
Let alone come to see them off.
"They seem grand now, but if I don't achieve good results, they'll probably make me swim back..." Su Yu chuckled.
Although his tone was jocular, he was not joking at all.
And now, his fanbase has reached a terrifying number, most of whom are followers who joined after his championship wins.
These people worship him wildly now, but Su Yu knows they are merely worshipping an undefeated myth.
As long as Su Yu loses the competition, they will be the first to attack him.
"The 'Era Music King' competition is indeed very difficult, but fortunately, there's no elimination mechanism. Everyone ranks based on points," Lin Yanyu nodded upon hearing this and rested her head on Su Yu's shoulder.
"Silly girl, don't you think this format is even more brutal?" Su Yu turned his head to look at her fluttering eyelashes and gently pinched her exquisite face.
"Why?" Lin Yanyu reached out, grabbed Su Yu's large hand, played with it in her palm, and asked with confusion.
"The rules indeed don't have eliminations, which seems less brutal, but if you rank low, you'll be scrutinized every episode. The top few will enjoy it, but those at the bottom, especially the last place, will suffer too much," Su Yu said with a light laugh.
Because the competition is points-based, there is no elimination regardless of wins or losses. After eight rounds of competition, the person with the most points wins the championship. This means that the person ranked last, if they continue to lose, will find every episode an ordeal, and it would be better to be eliminated.
"The last place is indeed miserable. In any case, don't put too much psychological pressure on yourself. Let's just do our best. Although there are many 'champion fans,' there are also many rational fans. As long as you try your best, they will support you," Lin Yanyu knew that if Su Yu didn't achieve good results, many people would criticize him, but she couldn't help Su Yu much at the moment. All she could offer him was encouragement.
"Mm, I'll do my best." Su Yu nodded.
Although Su Yu has many supporters in the domestic entertainment industry, overseas audiences generally look down on the Chinese music scene, and many people are hostile towards Su Yu.
Under these circumstances, achieving good results is indeed difficult.
However, Lin Yanyu believes that Su Yu never engages in battles he isn't prepared for. Since he agreed to participate in the competition, he must have a plan in mind. On the world stage, even Lin Chaoyang couldn't provide much help to Su Yu; everything would depend on Su Yu himself.
Thinking of this, she held Su Yu's hand, interlocking their fingers.
"Husband, go for it!"
