As a long time music aficionado, Little Hai had his connections.

His online ID was Voice of the Sea, also known by his nickname of Sea Serpent, as a reference to his venomous words.

Usually, very few songs would pique his interest. All the reviews he made were scathing and vicious. However, the songs that he recommended became classics, which led to him gaining some popularity.

Once the music review was published, it immediately attracted some attention.

[Hehe, since when did Sea Serpent take up such advertising?]

[Written and sung by Y himself? Are you kidding me?]

[Sea Serpent! How dare you blaspheme about my idol Y! Thats it, Im turning into your hater!]

[Appraisal complete. OP is a dumb*ss!]

[What song is this? Ive never heard of it!]

A lot of users came out of hiding just to take a jab at Little Hai. His post was filled with hateful comments.

It was bad enough to praise a song that much, but he had to involve Y. That was just asking for it!

Did he not know how many fans Singer Y had at the moment?

Other than the hateful comments, some naturally had to check out the song in questionSome People.

Once the song started, they had immediately quieted down. The song seemed to carry its own calming effect. It managed to stir up the emotions within a person, yet calming them down at the same time.

Classic!

An absolute masterpiece!

Without fail, all that listened to the song would be conquered!

After three days, Some Peoples play count increased exponentially. At the same time, the name Y in the song description attracted more attention and discussion.

Such a masterpiece was very likely the work of Singer Y!

Countless people rushed to leave comments and private messages under Ye Lingchens Weibo account with unbridled excitement.

[Y, are you the one that sang Some People? Its so good!]

[Y, Im sure its you right? Only you can be that talented!]

[Sob sob sob, its wonderful. Y, all your songs had contributed to my tears!]

Several people had even gone to Chen Xiaoyans Weibo to ask if Some People was another creation of Singer Y.

The comments in Weibo kept increasing. Soon enough, the term Some People and Singer Y made its way to the top at Weibos trending search.

Ye Lingchen looked at the heated discussion on Weibo and started typing with a smile.

[Initially, I only wanted to sing on the down low, but my talent doesnt allow for it!]

That phrase worked like a match on a stash of explosives, immediately triggering an explosion!

[F*ck! That is really Y! Ahhh, Ive finally heard the voice of my prince!]

[Its so good! I cant believe that Y sings so well. If he steps in the field, he will be at the level of superstars!]

[Hahaha, truly your talent doesnt allow for it. Y, youre so mischievous]

[Y is so easygoing. Some People was sung for Top Voice right?]

With the trend going stronger, Some People was understood in different ways, and countless interpretations of its meaning appeared online.

However, most of them linked it with Chinas Top Voice.

[Some people sweet-talk, some people only think of money. Some people are devils but pretend to be saints. I dont know why, I just suddenly thought of Hong Na!]

[Upvote that! I think so too.]

[This song similarly shows us Ys mentality. He didnt let Top Voice affect him. Most likely this is another whimsically written song.]

[While taking a stab at Hong Na and Top Voice, this was probably also meant to comfort Chen Xiaoyan. For people like Hong Na, theres no need to take it to heart.]

Following the increasing influence, the incident of Chen Xiaoyans disqualification was brought into view once again. Chinas Top Voice turned into the target of ridicule by many people.

Meanwhile, at Chinas Top Voices backstage

The crew was panicking. Countless complaints and criticism were hurled at them from all angles that it almost crashed their official website.

Director, what do we do? There are too many messages. We cant delete them fast enough.

With every passing second, dozens of bad reviews filled with scathing remarks appeared. How could they delete in time?

Director, the invitations to the finals that we sent are also under heavy fire. Most of them claiming that they would not attend nor watch again, another crew member said nervously.

Director, half of our appointed participants for the next season are pulling out, that person paused, then continued, They claim to be afraid of dirty tricks

Fine by me. This is a big show. Why would I be short on participants?!

The directors face was dark. He paced left and right unnervingly. Never once he thought that things would reach such a scale because of Chen Xiaoyans dismissal.

At the same time, he was extremely regretful at heart.

All three of Chen Xiaoyans songs were spread like fire on QQ Music. If Chen Xiaoyan had received fair treatment in Top Voice, then they could claim that Chen Xiaoyan had made such achievements via Top Voice. With that, Top Voices popularity would grow explosively. Ironically, Chen Xiaoyan had faced unfair treatment within Top Voice itself, garnering the exact opposite result, with dire consequences.

Unfortunately, it was too late for regrets.

Director, why dont we issue a public apology to Chen Xiaoyan and Y? Suggested one of the crew members.

Director Zhou kept silent for a moment, then shook his head. With a sigh, Just try your best to suppress this. Tomorrow is Top Voices finals. Whatever happens, well wrap up this season of Top Voice and settle the winner first.

To have his program apologize to a single person?

He could not bear to lower himself to that extent yet! If that happened, it would be a stain in his career as a director.

Saturday came. Chinas Top Voices finals began!

However, what should have been a crowded scene had only a few dozen people. Among them were several crew members.

The four judges took their places. As they turned around to look at the empty hall, it felt extremely awkward.

As for Hong Na, she had an uneasy look on her face. The past few days, she was met with much criticism. Her Weibo account was flooded with endless vitriol. Running out of options, she could only delete her Weibo account.

Whats the matter? Why are there so few people present? The director was dumbfounded. That scene before him was beyond understanding.

Director, at this moment everyone is boycotting our program. A lot of our previous audience were here because of Chen Xiaoyan

Then dont you know how to get people to come? Call your friends and relatives to boost the numbers! The directors face flushed red, shouting angrily.

Whats the point of filming when the seats are mostly empty?!

Everyone just kept quiet with their heads down.

At that point, they were too ashamed to let others know that they work at Top Voice as it may lead to them being the target of public scorn.

Whatre you standing here for? Get on the streets and get people! barked the director, after which he ran out at the lead, trying to get someone from the streets.

He approached a couple, Hello, Capital TV station is in the middle of recording a show. Would you like to have a look?

Show? What show?

Chinas Top Voice.

Oh is it that show that plays dirty tricks and even disqualified Chen Xiaoyan?

Ughyes.

Stay away from me!
