Chapter 139: A Stunning Opening Ceremony

“Is there a need to ask that?” Ding Chengzhi affirmed. “There will definitely be a surprise. It’s just a matter of whether the surprise is big or super big. Alright, let’s not talk about any more nonsense and look at the big screen. The opening ceremony of ‘I Am a Singer’ is about to… What the heck!”

Speaking up to here, just as he turned to look towards the screen, he couldn’t help but curse.

Because at this time, on the isolated road, sounds of footsteps could be heard, and the next scene he saw would be ingrained in his mind for a lifetime!

On the road, with ten people in a row, amounting up to 50 rows, security guards dressed in neat uniforms were marching forward slowly towards him!

“You… you are kidding, right?!” Seeing this scene, Sheng Wenshi was utterly shocked.

Of course, Ding Chengzhi, who was beside him, was also stunned. “This… this … how many security guards did the Young Master employ! What the heck! Fifty rows of security guards with 10 in each row? Isn’t that a total of 500 security guards leading the opening ceremony?!”

At this time, on the big screen, while the five hundred security guards were striding forward, the sky was also filled with twenty plus helicopters flying around—of course, among these twenty pluses, 20 were responsible for transportation while only three or four were responsible for shooting the scenes. However, at first sight, it seemed as if the whole sky was filled with helicopters doing an aerial performance.

In addition to the 500 security guards at the beginning, the giant spotlights on the rooftops of surrounding skyscrapers all shone on the main road. Just this spectacular scene caused the audience who did not enter the stadium to feel it was worth it to have come and deeply feel they didn’t come here for nothing today. As for those that didn’t come, all they could feel was regret—perhaps the decision of saving ten dollars to purchase a ticket would remain as regret for a lifetime!

Behind the 500 security guards leading the way were the eight stars that would be participating in “I Am a Singer.” Each of them walked with a small team behind them that included their agents, five security guards, and ten reporters.

Just the entrance of the stars was enough to make people scream—wherever the celebrities went, they were welcomed with screams and chants, just like international celebrities. It was no exaggeration to say that just by this scene, no one would doubt that they were the world’s top celebrities.

Chu Zhongqin walked in the forefront suavely, waving to the audience while making his way forward. Coupled with his clothes which were decorated with diamonds, his long hair flowing in the wind, and his sunglasses…

The current him seemed to resemble the world’s international superstar from earth, Micheal Jackson, receiving screams from the audiences. Some of the audience even fainted due to overexcitement. The security guards nearby immediately took these people to rest.

Just by the opening ceremony, “I Am a Singer” had already left many speechless, their visual appetite satisfied!

But this was far from over!

Behind the eight singers was a more vast and mighty team! With fifty rows of 10 security guards as one platoon, a total of nine platoons followed behind the singers. These security guards held the red flag of the Heavenly State and shouted the pledge throughout. The magnificent spectacle was almost comparable to that of a National Day parade.

Before “I Am a Singer” had even started its formal performance, the atmosphere of the crowd was already brought to the climax!

Numerous audiences shouted the names of the stars present and waved at them as if they were triumphant heroes!

At this time, the stars sitting in the West Fourth Loop Stadium were all regretting to the point where their intestines turned green—when they first heard from Zhang Cai’s phone call, they declined to participate as they felt the show was not a match to their status. As a result, from the way things had turned out, they had already lost at least millions of potential revenue.

At least, for the eight singers who participated in the performance today, solely this opening ceremony could double or triple their net worth. The worst part was that there was no upper limit to how much their reputation could rise…

Many singers were now ready to contact Miss Zhang Cai, the most popular agent in 2014, to discuss their appearance in the next few episodes. However, it was obvious that with only one free slot every two episodes, it would certainly be a headache to acquire it.

When the pack of security guards reached the main door of West Fourth Loop Stadium, they came to a halt.

The 5000 security guards divided themselves into two teams and stood guard at both sides of the pathway they had just opened while the eight singers slowly made their way inside.

After they had all entered, all the gates of West Fourth Loop Stadium closed. After that, the giant screens on the surrounding walls of the stadium began to stream the respective actions of the eight singers.

After entering the West Fourth Loop Stadium, the singers entered their respective waiting rooms and started to receive interviews by reporters, casually talking about their current moods, etc.

While they were in the midst of their preparation for the performance, six enormous mirrors suddenly rose up from the ground on the central stage of the stadium. And at the same time, the spotlights on the rooftops of the surrounding 18 skyscrapers were directed at the six mirrors!

The interior of the six mirrors were all made up of smaller mirrors, and as the spotlights shone on the mirrors, they began to reflect extremely beautiful lights. Coupled with the colorful decorations on the stage and lighting from the helicopters in the sky, the stage of “I Am a Singer” at this time could only be described with one word—Sci-fi.

Yes, the brilliant lighting effects looked as if they were produced from a sci-fi movie.

And at the same time, in the center of the stage, a circular platform slowly rose from the stage.

Miss Zhang Cai, one of the general managers of Caiwei Entertainment as well as the “I Am a Singer” host this time around, stood on the platform and slowly appeared in front of everyone!

For the event, Zhang Cai was dressed in a gorgeous evening gown. Originally, Zhang Cai’s looks could only be considered above average. However, after dressing up and putting on makeup, she became a world-class beauty. Everyone’s attention was attracted towards her the moment she appeared on stage.

Even Miao Nianyan, who was considered the best makeup artist in the entertainment circle, couldn’t help but exclaim: “This… this is absolutely beautiful!”

Sheng Wenshi and Ding Chengzhi knew Zhang Cai a fair bit. However, when they saw her appearance on stage, even they couldn’t help but be surprised. “Oh my god, Young Master is certainly willing to spend! The total amount spent on Zhang Cai’s makeup and dress is definitely not small!”

In fact, their guess was on the mark. Zhang Cai’s stylist was the world’s top French aristocratic dinner stylist, Mr. XX—naturally, the prodigal Hong Dali didn’t care to remember, the only thing he knew was that it cost him 50,000 for the stylist to put makeup on Zhang Cai.

“Ladies and gentlemen, good evening! Welcome to the performance of the first episode of “I Am a Singer.” Zhang Cai stood on stage with a relaxed and confident smile on her face. With a steady and clear voice, she said, “I’m the host, Zhang Cai. In this competition, there will be 5,000 members of the audience who will rate their favorite singers. For now, let us draw lots to see who is the first to come up on stage!”

As Zhang Cai’s introduction speech ended, the show which would shock the whole of Heavenly State officially started!

In the West Fourth Loop Stadium, VIP room.

Hong Dali brought his classmates along to have some snacks while watching the show. Ling Yi smiled and said, “Big Bro Dali, how does this show work? Although the venue is amazing, just watching them sing is quite boring.”

Du Xinzhen, on the other hand, said, “What are you in such a hurry for? I know at the tip of my fingers that Big Bro Dali definitely has something hidden up his sleeves!”

“Of course, I have something unique prepared.” Hong Dali said with a smile. “Otherwise, this kind of show would indeed be boring to watch. However, it can’t be shown today. It will only be officially rolled out during the end of episode two. Today is purely meant to test the waters. At present, it seems that the show is quite successful.”

“It’s indeed quite successful.” Lang Hao, who had always been going against Hong Dali’s words in the past, couldn’t help but be impressed by Hong Dali this time around. “This is no longer a small success. It’s more like an immense success! As long as nothing wrong happens during the show, the next episode will definitely be more popular, and the price of the tickets can skyrocket!” Speaking up to here, Lang Hao rushed up and hugged Hong Dali’s arms. “Big Bro Dali, teach me how to be a prodigal! In the future, I’ll be your most loyal follower!”

“Squandering is an art that requires talent!” Hong Dali twitched his nose and said, Your talent does not seem that good, and your bones are not that special. It’s difficult for you to become a prodigal!”

“Haha!” Hearing Hong Dali’s words, Tang Muxin, who was standing at the side, suddenly laughed and said, “You see, it’s not easy to become a prodigal. To become a successful prodigal like Dali, you need to have at least the same amount of luck Dali has first!”

“I…” Lang Hao fell helplessly on the sofa. “I was unlucky since young, seems like it’s hopeless…”

“It’s inevitable that your luck is bad.” Hong Dali did not forget to insult him. “If you don’t squander, how can your luck be good!”

Hong Dali chatted with his classmates in the VIP room. Meanwhile, Sheng Wenshi, Ku Ge’s chief editor, was looking at the huge screen hanging on the stage. It was currently broadcasting the ongoing interviews with the eight singers.

“Old Ding, why is that reporter acting so mysterious?” Sheng Wenshi asked strangely. “I have never seen reporters covering their faces. Shouldn’t it be the celebrities that normally have their faces covered?”

“En, it’s indeed strange.” Ding Chengzhi thought for a while and suddenly said in shock, “Right! A celebrity! The reporter herself is a big celebrity!”

At this time, a young man seated next to him inched closer and asked, “Chief Ding, did you managed to guess it?” The young man looked pretty handsome and was dressed in a branded suit, with a blood-red birthmark in the center of his forehead. It was Hong Dali’s new lackey, the young master of Mu family, Mu Zixiao!

Sheng Wenshi strangely said, “A big celebrity? This reporter is a big celebrity?” He looked at the reporter on the screen carefully. The more he looked, the bigger he widened his mouth. “This… this is not… Li Nianwei, right?!”
