This season of "Era Music King" in China not only saw Ting Yu's votes surpass 100 million, but also allowed the entire Blue Star to witness the immense market of China.
In the past, when China was mentioned, overseas netizens first thought of the older generation of singers who covered Japanese songs.
Now, after this competition, many people have a new understanding of China.
Similarly, they have gained a deeper understanding of the Chinese style created by Ting Yu.
Moreover, because Ting Yu's "Hong Yan Ru Shuang" incorporated elements of opera and guzheng, major satellite TV variety shows are promoting Chinese culture to seize the opportunity to promote Chinese opera and national instruments. Overseas short video platforms also have many trending topics related to Chinese culture.
As if overnight, China, a country with a strong Eastern charm, has completely entered the global stage.

Many people are already accustomed to Ting Yu dominating Weibo's trending searches.
But before, people only praised him for being amazing. It's unclear when it happened, but Ting Yu has become synonymous with the Chinese music scene. It's as if when he gains prominence, the entire Chinese music scene follows suit.
"The emergence of Ting Yu in the Chinese music scene is definitely the luckiest thing!"
"As a fan of Ting Yu, I feel so proud!"
"Ting Yu, the national idol, he is the well-deserved leader of the Chinese music scene!"
"You can't find anyone in the entire Chinese music scene who can compare to Ting Yu."
Based on his current reputation in the Chinese music scene, Ting Yu has reached its peak.
He even surpasses Mo Yan at his peak.
Especially his unique Chinese-style songs, which are not only loved by the domestic entertainment industry but also found to be very pleasing by foreigners. His new song "Hong Yan Ru Shuang" is also a huge hit on foreign platforms, and the guzheng player Liu Qingxue, who collaborated with him, has also become very popular.
...
Japan.
Nivie Entertainment.
Because Morita Yui and Jiang Nan's collaboration "Initial D" won the Golden Asia Film Festival championship, and she is also preparing to collaborate with Ting Yu on an anime film, with Jiang Nan as her trump card, Morita Yui's position as acting chairperson is now firmly secured.
However, her elder sister, Morita Yuumi, also has her own trump card, which is Ting Yu, who is currently trending throughout the global entertainment industry.
This time, for the theme song of "Ninja," it was a choice between Ting Yu and the company's Miyamoto Ze.
Morita Yuumi naturally favors Ting Yu.
Not to mention that Ting Yu's current popularity completely overshadows Miyamoto Ze, but also considering Morita Yuumi's affection for Ting Yu, she would unswervingly choose Ting Yu.
However, Miyamoto Ze is also a top producer in the company. To avoid a complete breakdown, Morita Sho suggested a fair competition between him and Ting Yu.
Now, with the release date approaching,
Miyamoto Ze, seeing Ting Yu's growing global recognition, has become a bit restless.
"Yuumi-chan, Ting Yu, he's Chinese, he doesn't understand anime at all," he found Morita Yuumi, making his last effort.
He had researched "Ninja" for a long time and had already written a very good song.
But he never expected that Ting Yu would butt in on what was originally his own territory.
"Didn't Father say that data speaks for itself? So, Mr. Miyamoto, please don't be in such a hurry," Morita Yuumi said indifferently.
She used to be wary of Miyamoto Ze, as he was Japan's most powerful producer, and an entertainment company possessing such talent held the greatest trump card.
But things were different now. She now had Ting Yu as a partner, whose reputation even surpassed Miyamoto Ze's. The only regret was that Ting Yu was not Japanese, but this did not affect anything. The Morita family were businessmen, and businessmen always prioritized profit. If Ting Yu could generate more profit, they would unreservedly choose to collaborate with Ting Yu. As for Miyamoto Ze, he was the second choice, or a backup.
"Heh, but I want to say, Momoka Nai doesn't like singing Ting Yu's songs," Miyamoto Ze said with a light laugh.
"How does Mr. Miyamoto know?" Morita Yuumi raised an eyebrow.
"Momoka Nai is my singer, so of course, I understand her." Miyamoto Ze could only place his hope on Momoka Nai.
This girl had been singing his songs since her debut; he, Miyamoto Ze, had personally propelled her to fame.
Miyamoto Ze was confident that Momoka Nai would side with him.
"I think it's better to ask Momoka Nai first. What do you think, Mr. Miyamoto?" Morita Yuumi would not listen to Miyamoto Ze's one-sided account.
As soon as she finished speaking, there was a knock on the office door.
"Please come in."
Morita Yuumi said, and then the door was opened. It was Momoka Nai, currently the hottest singer in China.
Speaking of which, Momoka Nai's appearance leaned towards the cute "kawaii" style, but her singing style was that of a rock girl. This contrast made her a goddess in the hearts of many otaku from the moment she debuted. Coupled with her truly powerful singing skills, she became Japan's most popular singer in just two and a half years, qualified to compete on the world stage with Miyamoto Ze.
"Miss Yuumi, Mr. Miyamoto." After entering, she greeted both of them.
"Kana, have you heard Ting Yu's song?" Morita Yuumi asked with a light smile.
Miyamoto Ze's expression changed upon hearing this.
His heart immediately tightened.
Had Momoka Nai already heard Ting Yu's song?
"I have," Momoka Nai nodded, and then a radiant smile appeared on her face. "It's a very nice song, and it suits me perfectly."
"Hmph, how suitable is it? Is it as suitable as my song?" Miyamoto Ze interrupted directly.
Momoka Nai's smile vanished, and she cowered slightly, looking timid.
"Mr. Miyamoto, if you continue with this attitude, I will have to ask my father to handle this matter." Morita Yuumi frowned.
She could sense the threat in Miyamoto Ze's words.
"I'll make my stance clear: either my song or Ting Yu's song. If Momoka Nai chooses Ting Yu, then you won't be singing my songs anymore." With things having reached this point, Miyamoto Ze stopped beating around the bush and sat on the sofa, crossing his legs.
He was very confident that as long as he took a firm stance, Momoka Nai would choose him, as Ting Yu was only a temporary collaboration, while he, Miyamoto Ze, was Momoka Nai's long-term choice.
Morita Yuumi glanced at Miyamoto Ze, her eyebrows slightly furrowed, then turned her gaze to Momoka Nai and said softly, "Kana, you choose for yourself. Don't worry about others' opinions. I will support you no matter who you choose."
If Miyamoto Ze truly resorted to threats, Morita Yuumi would have no choice, but the final decision still rested with Momoka Nai.
If all else failed, she would have to inform her father to get involved forcefully. After all, Miyamoto Ze had previously agreed to let Momoka Nai sing Ting Yu's song, and going back on his word now was hard to justify.
"I... I want to sing Ting Yu's song, 'Aoko'."
However, just as both of them thought Momoka Nai would choose Miyamoto Ze, she suddenly spoke, making an unbelievable decision!
