The fans were filled with enthusiasm, shouting as if they were going to tear the roof off.
Wu Tian found this incomprehensible. Everyone was the same, people on stage and people off stage, why so crazy?
Fortunately, the Korean team had arranged front-row seats for them. If they had been placed on the mountaintop, wouldn't his ears have been blown off by the noise?
The fair-skinned, beautiful, long-legged girl group members swayed their waists as much as possible under the dazzling lights.
Wu Tian couldn't understand Korean, and felt like he was sitting on pins and needles, wishing the concert would end quickly.
After enduring for more than two hours, the commotion on stage finally stopped.
This was basically the end of the concert. Wu Tian breathed a sigh of relief, thinking he could finally leave.
The leader of the girl group stood on stage with a microphone and said to everyone in English, "Thank you all for coming today. I am very happy, thank you!"
The fans erupted in a deafening roar, almost knocking Wu Tian over.
Then the girl group leader said, "I heard that our Korean team is currently participating in a competition here, right?"
"We want to support them, and we hope everyone can support us together, okay?"
The fans responded in unison, waving their glow sticks and shouting the English name of Korea. The scene was quite grand.
Hearing their voices, Wu Tian couldn't help but click his tongue.
This was in the Bird Country, after all!
The Bird Country team was also participating in this competition. Did these fans have any brains?
After a minute-long show of support, the girl group leader said again, "Our Korean contestants are also here today."
"Now, let's welcome them onto the stage with our cheers, shall we?"
The fans shouted with flushed faces, their desperate efforts as if they wanted to spit out their vocal cords.
Under such enthusiastic cheers, the contestants from Korea also walked onto the stage.
The person leading them was Jin Zhewu. He was very handsome, just like the male lead in a Korean drama.
Therefore, as soon as he appeared, he immediately received even more fervent cheers.
Jin Zhewu flashed a charming smile at everyone and said in English, "Thank you all for coming."
"This is my first time in Bird Country. Bird Country is very beautiful, I like it here very much, and I hope you will like me too, okay!"
The fans responded to Jin Zhewu with cheers, their fanaticism like worshipping a god.
Afterward, Jin Zhewu continued to speak at length on stage, basically just making pleasantries, but he managed to captivate everyone, winning their hearts in just a few minutes.
Wu Tian, however, was not a fool. He could see that Jin Zhewu's speech was not at all hesitant, and could be described as eloquent, clearly having prepared a script beforehand.
Seeing this, Wu Tian understood the purpose of this concert.
This was purely a performance with hidden motives, solely aimed at garnering popularity for the Korean team.
Wu Tian felt regret.
If he had known it would be like this, he should have been more assertive and insisted on not coming to this godforsaken place.
If he hadn't come, he would be comfortably reading a book after a bath right now. Wouldn't that be much more enjoyable than watching this sham of a concert?
Now, Wu Tian just wished Jin Zhewu would finish speaking quickly and stop wasting time.
But Jin Zhewu clearly had no intention of fulfilling his wish.
After finishing his pleasantries, he suddenly looked in Wu Tian's direction and said, "Oh, there's one more thing I want to mention."
"Not only are we here today, but we have also invited the Chinese team, who will be competing against us tomorrow."
"Next, shall we welcome them onto the stage?"
"OK!!!"
The fans roared irrationally.
This turn of events caught Wu Tian and the others by surprise. They instinctively exchanged glances, looking a bit stunned.
Jin Zhewu continued on stage, "It seems our friends from the Chinese team are a bit shy. Let's have more cheers and applause!"
The girl group leader also said, "Come on, everyone, chant with me: China! China!"
Under the girl group leader's instigation, the fans repeatedly chanted the word "China."
A dignified nation with five thousand years of civilization was now treated like some kind of entertainment term.
The Chinese team members were reluctant to go up, but they couldn't withstand the overwhelming noise.
So, they shouted to Ling Tengyun, "Brother Tengyun! What do we do now?"
Ling Tengyun also didn't want to go up, but he had no other choice now.
Therefore, he could only slap his thigh, stand up, and say loudly, "Let's go! Let's go up!"
Seeing that Ling Tengyun had already done so, the remaining Chinese team members had no choice but to go up, even if it was with trepidation.
The group walked onto the stage, facing the dense crowd. Except for Wu Tian, everyone else couldn't help but feel nervous.
Jin Zhewu walked up with a smile and extended his hand to Wu Tian, saying, "Hello Wu Tian, you are the captain of the Chinese team, right?"
"I watched your match against India. You are truly amazing."
Hearing Jin Zhewu say this, Ling Tengyun immediately became displeased.
He squeezed his way forward and said, "He's not the captain, I am!"
"Oh?" Jin Zhewu clearly hadn't expected this and couldn't help but laugh, "So you are the captain. My apologies, I thought Wu Tian was the captain seeing his excellent performance."
Ling Tengyun said indignantly, "He doesn't deserve to be captain at all. I am the most powerful person in the Chinese team. Don't make a mistake in the future!"
Jin Zhewu sized up Ling Tengyun.
He was a perceptive person, so from Ling Tengyun's tone and facial expressions, he guessed the relationship between Ling Tengyun and Wu Tian.
But he didn't say anything extra, just smiled and nodded, saying, "So that's how it is, I'll remember."
"By the way, what do you think the result of tomorrow's match will be?"
Ling Tengyun hadn't expected Jin Zhewu to ask so directly.
He thought it would be better to be polite, so he said, "The result is not important, the process is important."
"The purpose of this competition is not competition, but exchange, right?"
"So, friendship first, competition second. I think it's enough if everyone has a good time exchanging ideas."
After saying this, Ling Tengyun felt a little smug, thinking his answer was official and appropriate, demonstrating the demeanor of a great nation.
But after hearing Ling Tengyun's words, a sly smile appeared on Jin Zhewu's lips.
He said, "Friendship first, right? If that's the case, then what's the point of us competing?"
"With our friendship, why don't you just let us win?"
