Park Ji-hoon and Jeong Yun-ho did not have an easy time after returning to South Korea.
The truth was, they set out with immense confidence, but their results were just as bad as those of the losers, Jin Damin and Li Mingxuan!
This made the audience and netizens in South Korea a bit unable to accept it.
Therefore, even before the results of the fourth episode were released, there were calls online to replace the two of them.
Some even stood up for Li Mingxuan.
After all, Li Mingxuan hadn't done anything wrong, and from the results, Li Mingxuan had performed even better.
This scene left the television stations, video platforms, and music platforms that hosted the event in South Korea feeling very speechless.
They felt that their own citizens were really too irrational!
It was clearly Japan's home ground, and it was already quite good for them to achieve such results.
After all, who made them not have a Su Yu?
However, they had just replaced the lyricists and composers; replacing them again would be a bit damaging to morale.
Moreover, who could be sure that the sixth episode would not be broadcast live in their South Korea?
Japan has now confirmed both of its special shows, and they will have their time to cry later.
Besides, even when fighting at home, their lyricists and composers didn't directly take first place with a huge advantage, did they?
When it's their home game, if they achieve better results, wouldn't that mean they are stronger than Japan?
Nothing wrong with that, right?
Time passed quietly, and on the 18th, the results of the fourth episode of the Four Nations Concert were finally released.
The champion of this fourth episode was still Su Yu! However, everyone could see that this time Su Yu also won by a narrow margin.
Because the song's weekly download volume was less than 150,000 more than Ida Shoichiro's.
This was much weaker than the previous three episodes where Su Yu could win by a large margin.
Ida Shoichiro, due to two instances of excellent performance and this time ranking second with 2 points, is ranked fourth in the overall points list for lyricists and composers!
And he undoubtedly became a hero in the hearts of japanese audiences.
The final third place was narrowly taken by Chu Ming, whose work's final download volume was only over 20,000 more than Yamaguchi Yuto's.
In the face of tens of millions of downloads, over 20,000 is truly too little.
And Chu Ming also accumulated 4 points with two third places and one second place, ranking below Chris's 5 points on the overall list.
Chris and Lawrence ranked fifth and sixth respectively this time.
The two newcomers from South Korea had the lowest weekly download volumes.
Among the eight lyricists and composers, only three newcomers had not yet earned any points.
This made it seem as if a guillotine was hanging over their heads, ready to fall at any moment!
Without points, they could be replaced by their backing television station at any time, not to mention participating in the final round.
If they couldn't even qualify for the finals, they would have a hard time raising their heads for a long time after the variety show ended!
They might even be directly trampled into the ground by competitors, becoming dust.
......
This period passed very quickly for Su Yu, and after returning to the film crew, he began the green screen shooting tasks.
What surprised the technicians at Tianxing Special Effects was that Su Yu, who was clearly new to green screen shooting, quickly grasped the tricks and techniques of filming.
They felt the pressure from how quickly he picked it up!
Their second boss at Tianxing Special Effects was truly too divine, wasn't he?
And the shooting task, originally planned for ten days, actually finished in seven days.
As Su Yu finished the last shot, all of Yang Guo's scenes were officially wrapped up.
The total filming time Su Yu spent on this crew combined was less than two months, which is truly incredibly fast.
Although Su Yu's scenes were finished, the entire drama still needed to be filmed for about half a month before it could truly wrap up.
The main reason was that Su Yu's scenes were primarily shot in the early stages, and they still had many other plots and shots to reshoot.
But in Liu Xia's eyes, this was no longer a problem.
Su Yu did not leave the film crew immediately after wrapping up; instead, he waited for Han Jiangxue's scenes to finish before leaving together.
When the time came to the 24th, Su Yu, Zhang Xiaohan, and some assistants and bodyguards had once again arrived in Japan.
Han Jiangxue didn't come this time; after all, she is now a senior executive in the company, and filming had delayed a lot of her work recently, so she needed to go back and work hard for a while.
The song for the fifth episode was not actually sung by Zhang Xiaohan; Su Yu decided to personally perform "Lemon," which he had customized from System Miss.
As for why Zhang Xiaohan came along?
It was because the japanese television station had tasted the sweetness of the SSR Girl Group's opening last time, and this time, they invited Zhang Xiaohan, the Mecha Girl, to open the show as per usual.
The people at the japanese television station knew deeply how fickle audiences and fans could be.
A few weeks ago, the SSR Girl Group had the highest popularity, but now it has long since become the Mecha Girl Zhang Xiaohan.
They even thought that if Su Yu changed to a different singer for the fifth episode, the audience and fans' preferences would probably change again!
However, for the japanese television station, Zhang Xiaohan's appearance fee was much higher than that of the SSR Girl Group.
But in order to make their two special shows in Japan the best, they still reluctantly paid the money.
The live broadcast of the fifth episode of the Four Nations Concert was similar to the previous one, with a "warm-up" starting almost an hour in advance.
The live broadcast of the fifth episode officially began at 7:35 PM.
When the japanese audience at the venue saw Zhang Xiaohan, dressed in the incredibly familiar mecha from the previous episode, appear on stage, thunderous cheers and applause erupted!
However, when a melody prelude, completely unfamiliar to them, began to play, the audience at the venue and netizens from Japan and the other three nations were all dumbfounded.
Nani? It wasn't "Psychological Effect"?!
However, the Chinese netizens were completely different from those of the other three nations.
"Holy cow! This is the prelude to 'Blue Bird'!"
"Oh my, isn't this the japanese version of 'Blue Bird'?"
"One song, two sets of lyrics! Is Su Shen returning to his old profession??"
"But the Mecha Girl version of 'Blue Bird' is also quite catchy, I love it!"
"......"
That's right, the opening performance Zhang Xiaohan brought this time was not the champion song from the previous episode, but "Blue Bird" from her new album.
Actually, Zhang Xiaohan was also a bit surprised when she heard that Su Yu had made a japanese version for her.
But whatever the boss arranged, she would do.
"Blue Bird" was a reserve song Su Yu had given her a long time ago.
At that time, during the Who is the Singer competition, she never had the chance to sing it.
Later, it was directly included in her first new album after joining Tianxing Entertainment.
Undoubtedly, the download volume of this song was also very high.
But its popularity and recognition were only in the Chinese market. With this one song and two sets of lyrics, does Teacher Su Yu want to continue to expand into the japanese music market?
Amidst an exciting prelude, a song with a completely different style from "Psychological Effect" began with a powerful start.
"【flyingいたらReturnらないとwordsって，Aimしたのはblueいblueいあのsky...】" (When I fly, I'll say I'm not coming back, what I aimed for was that blue, blue sky...)
