In the astonished eyes of He Zhichen and Gan Yanyu.
"Then make them admit defeat!"
He liked this kind of competition.
Who said this judge was no good? This judge is awesome!
No acting, pure targeting, all bias.
It’s clear they’re out to get you, it’s all about grudges...
Directly, it saved Lin Tian a lot of scheming.
Everyone stopped pretending, isn’t this wonderful?
So what could Lin Tian and Gan Yanyu do then?
They can’t possibly tear down the Music Association, right?
put on an unprecedented, most magnificent stage to completely win over this group of old guys!
Make the audience’s voice so strong that if you don’t let us advance, millions of music fans will push the Music Association to the point where they have to announce a rematch!
Both sides were well aware of each other’s cards.
Now it was about who was tougher!
"Speaking of which, Mr. Lin Tian, there’s something else you should pay attention to."
He Zhichen opened the tablet, flipping through it,
"Before conquering the Music Association, I think this opponent is even more terrifying..."
He Zhichen showed the tablet to Lin Tian,
"After the competition ended, you probably haven’t been online — it’s gone crazy!"
The preliminary round of the Dragon Violin Cup concluded successfully.
However, online discussion about the competition never stopped, and it could be said it intensified!
First, there were several stage clips from this competition.
Because the official account of the Dragon Violin Cup had already entered major video platforms and was live streaming the entire event.
All the performances of the contestants in the Dragon Violin Cup were uploaded to video sites by the official team afterwards.
In total, 101 stages, 101 videos, no contestant was left out.
Among these 101 stages, four stages within three days of the competition ended up getting over 1 million views respectively on YouTube and Bilibili.

Gan Yanyu - "Blue Danube" - 3.68 million views.
Bai Junze - "Lan Bo Rhapsody" - 1.43 million views.
Bai Xi - "Willow Flower" - 1.03 million views.
These four stage performances all sparked widespread online discussion.
They also became important performances that brought the Dragon Violin Cup to a new height of popularity.
The four musicians also received a certain level of attention.
Among them, Bai Junze, who had never appeared in public before, attracted countless fans with his unrestrained performance and naturally handsome features.
However, all this... was just minor skirmishes.
The true event that pushed the Dragon Violin Cup’s popularity to its peak.
Was the heated topic netizens deduced from the face-off between Gan Yanyu and Mao Weiang during the competition—
The battle between pop music and classical music!
The trigger for the debate initially came from Moonlight and Cat’s "Blue Danube" video.
When a large number of pop music fans brought in by Mao Weiang discovered that their brother was not leading by a landslide, and that a classical music piece had also reached over "3 million views,"
They quickly commented under the video:
[What the hell?? This piece can also reach 3 million views??]
[No, the first half of this piece almost put me to sleep, why can its view count be on par with our Mr. Maozi?]
[The more I listen to "Sonnet," the more I’m hooked, still looping it to this day, while "Blue Danube" I don’t even want to hear a second time!]
[Haha, the music world has its own fandom wars too!]
[Bullying our Maozi who just entered this circle?]
This barrage of comments not only shocked all bystanders but also all the audience in the music circle.
What shocked them was—
There were actually people who dared to provoke the Moon Cat fans!
This was too terrifying!
Who didn’t know that in the music world, anyone could be criticized, except for one group, who always walked arrogantly?!
Back then, as far as YouTube, this group had definitely stormed in, forcing foreigners to issue apology videos and retreat!
A large number of Moon Cat fans also swiftly struck back, not to be outdone, rushing to the comments under "Sonnet."
[Heh, ordinary people can only consume this kind of stuff!]
[Laughable, they can’t even understand simple bran, yet they question others’ taste!]
[This thing, does it have any substance? Let me ask you, does it have any substance? Can you hear anything in it? Tell me.....]
[Ugh, can’t communicate with a group of people with such low cognition....]
For a time, both sides engaged in a verbal war, laced with sarcasm.
The comments from both sides made it to Weibo’s trending topics.
The real internet shouting match, coming from the top contenders of two circles... had begun!
