Chapter 1407: Chapter 1165 Prelude to the Knife Society_2
Ol’ Zhou smiled faintly. “Look outside.”
At this moment, the car had already driven close to the vicinity of the Cultural and Sports Center.
Everyone in the car looked through the window toward the massive Cultural and Sports Center building and gasped audibly!
“So many reporters!”
It’s not just many — outside the entrance of the Cultural and Sports Center, reporters from all directions gathered densely, like swarming ants!
Major newspapers, minor newspapers, TV stations, magazines…
Some of these media outlets were specifically invited by Starlight Entertainment.
Others were not invited by Starlight at all but came of their own accord, resulting in security personnel being several times more than usual!
Keep this in mind.
It’s only five o’clock right now!
And this is just the beginning!
As the afternoon progressed, more and more people gathered at the entrance of the Cultural and Sports Center.
This time, it’s not reporters but the audience!
The buzzing crowd surged intensely, resulting in an uncountable number of spectators!
Among them, some were even holding self-made support signs and banners high.
The reporters who had been waiting at the entrance since the morning were overwhelmed by the sheer influx of this tidal wave of people:
“Damn!”
“How many people is this?”
“Must be tens of thousands!”
“What is it now, around one o’clock?”
“The movie press conference doesn’t start until six in the evening!”
“Starlight Entertainment invited them?”
“Nonsense!”
“There’s no need to invite anyone — most of them came because of Xian Yu and that bunch of legendary guests!”
“Don’t forget, Xian Yu has held a concert for 100,000 people before, and that’s with the venue only accommodating 100,000 — many people couldn’t even get tickets!”
“Suddenly, the Cultural and Sports Center feels small.”
“It really is small.”
“It’s only one in the afternoon now, by six o’clock there might be over forty thousand spectators gathered here.”
“The venue won’t fit them all.”
“Some probably won’t be able to get in.”
“There are too many people, security checks have already started at the front, just getting in will take forever…”
“The question goes back to the beginning.”
“Isn’t this just a movie press conference? Why the hell does it feel like a concert?”
…
Fine.
Whether it’s a concert or not, all doubts about the Cultural and Sports Center being unable to fill were dispelled.
By five in the afternoon.
Those guests invited for the movie press conference had already started walking the hundreds-meter-long red carpet outside the entrance.
Security guards lined the two sides of the barricades.
The reporters, armed with long lenses and short cameras, were visibly thrilled, frantically snapping away with their cameras and camcorders pointed at these individuals!
The audience lingering at the entrance let out waves of screams!
“It’s Ol’ Zou!”
“Qi Continent’s Maestro!”
“Chu Continent sent three Maestros too!”
“Far more than just three — there’s plenty behind them!”
“Wei Continent sent quite a few too!”
“Every continent is here!”
“And it’s not just Maestros from every continent!”
“Kings and Queens of Singing, even Best Actors and Actresses!”
“Incredible!”
“This isn’t a movie press conference — it’s a music gala, isn’t it!?”
“Wait a moment!”
“Is that…!?”
“Abigail!?”
“Holy sh*t, he really came?! Even though Middle State directors were ganging up on Xian Yu, Abigail, a Middle State native who even lost to Xian Yu during the Blue Songlympics, actually still showed up to support Xian Yu!”
“Huh?”
“Beside Abigail is Yang Zhongming!!!”
“Oh my God!”
“They’re arriving together, chatting and laughing. What’s going on? Wasn’t there buzz about Abigail and Father Yang not getting along!?”
…
Yes.
Abigail came!
And he came with Yang Zhongming!
The sight of these two top-tier Maestros appearing side by side on camera is like straight-up murder — the endless flash of cameras made countless people’s eyes hurt!
On both sides of the road.
The crowd roared like waves crashing onto the shore.
Abigail and Yang Zhongming both smiled, waving to the crowd and even coordinating to snap a photo together, creating one of those rare “moments to live for.”
After the photo was taken.
The two continued walking.
Abigail leaned closer to Yang Zhongming’s ear and said, “Still keeping it under wraps? Come on, tell me — with such fanfare, there has to be something surprising, right?”
“I honestly have no idea.”
Yang Zhongming replied, “But Xian Yu has been thoroughly preparing these past few days and seems to have some new works to unveil today.”
“No kidding,” Abigail rolled his eyes. “Otherwise, why would I be here?”
Yang Zhongming chuckled.
Indeed.
There wasn’t any complicated reason.
Abigail was willing to show up simply to hear Xian Yu’s new music.
As for the rumored tension between Abigail and himself, it wasn’t as bad as people made it out to be.
Musically, there had been competition.
But that competition didn’t affect their private relationship.
They both simply couldn’t be bothered to clarify things to the public.
Today, the timing was just right — the two conveniently coordinated a few side-by-side photos, dispelling some of the gossip in the process.
…
Finally.
All the big shots entered.
And the venue was already packed with spectators by then!
Elsewhere.
Several major streaming platforms on Blue Star had already begun broadcasting live!
The comment sections were blowing up!
“The press conference is about to start!”
“Every big shot is sitting in the front rows!”
“Father Yang and Abigail actually arrived together!?”
“This is what influence looks like!”
“Oh my God!”
“There’re dozens of Maestros from Qin Continent here!”
“Maestros from every continent are here — it’s just Middle State lacking some.”
“Abigail is here though. With his quality, he single-handedly overwhelms thousands!”
“Xian Yu’s version of the Blue Songlympics?”
