After offending capital, my songs became more and more popular.

Chapter 147 The singer of the opening ceremony theme song at the top of "Earth"! President Qin: What is steamed!

The opening ceremony was truly spectacular. Our country has never disappointed in such international events. It is said that nearly 2 performers were involved in today's ceremony, and the visual arts, fireworks, and other technological applications were breathtaking. But that's not all...

What is the most important thing about any major international event in our country?
It's about inner meaning!
It's about meaning!
It's an echo!
Do you know anything about Chinese reading comprehension?
Yes, that's the feeling!
A performance that may only last a few minutes can include famous scenes from my country's "Four Great Inventions", "Silk Road", "Opera", "Zheng He's Voyages to the West", and so on. The philosophical and historical content is so detailed that it is almost unbelievable.

Foreigners may not understand or see it, but every well-educated Chinese person can easily grasp the profound sense of history unique to five thousand years of civilization and feel a deep sense of national pride!
It has to be said that when it comes to "formality," looking at the whole world, it has to be our country...

Let's not even talk about anything else, just take our three-service honor guard. If you look at foreign military parades, whenever our country's soldiers participate, when are we not the main characters?

This is the image of a great power, you understand?

The performances came one after another, and the audience thoroughly enjoyed them. Before the shows, many people were discussing topics related to Shen Ming'en, but as the performances began, the discussion about Shen Ming'en gradually subsided...

It's not that people aren't paying attention to him anymore; it's just that right now, we should be focusing on national events, okay?

As time went on, the opening ceremony gradually entered its second half, and the performance time of the theme song was getting closer and closer.

The Thunder Yatalia, who had been "forgotten" by these "scumbag viewers," has finally been remembered by them!
"Isn't it time to release a theme song next?"

"Oh... Shen Ming'en! Shen Ming'en!"

"...Please, he didn't even come to the opening ceremony today, what kind of performance is he supposed to give?"

"Emmm...but I saw from a fan site that he was dressed very flamboyantly today and came out with a group of celebrities."

"...Okay, fine, you're just being deliberately mysterious!"

……

Not only online, but also offline audiences are debating whether Shen Ming'en will appear at today's opening ceremony performance.

Wow, that's amazing...

Shen Mingen's popularity and audience appeal are truly impressive!

To be honest, Shen Ming'en's current "national popularity" is ridiculously high. It gives people the feeling that even if he hadn't done anything, people would still be discussing him at today's opening ceremony theme song performance, let alone the fact that he sang the chorus of "Beijing Welcomes You" in advance and sang "Thousands of Mountains and Rivers" solo at the Temple of Heaven.

It is truly astonishing how a celebrity can become so popular and deeply ingrained in people's minds.

"It's him? Ha~"

In the tea room, Mr. Ma and the others, who had received prior "confirmation," couldn't help but sneer as they watched the barrage of comments discussing Shen Ming'en before the opening ceremony's theme song began.

If they hadn't received the information from Mr. Zhang's assistant, who was being contacted by President Qin, they might have thought, like the audience members present, that it was Shen Ming'en.

But thinking about it, they were really worrying unnecessarily...

Shen Ming'en, a guy with no power or background, is already incredibly lucky to have been appreciated by the behind-the-scenes creator of "Beijing Welcomes You" and to be able to sing "Thousands of Mountains and Rivers" solo. He actually wants to sing the theme song at the opening ceremony in front of audiences from all over the world.
Dream on!
When the performance starts and Teacher Zhang and that foreign female singer appear together, the audience will realize how unworthy Shen Mingen is!
Just as everyone was engaged in heated discussion, and the teahouse staff were making sarcastic remarks...

The opening ceremony.

The central area where live broadcast cameras from various countries converge.

On the high platform, a platform resembling a globe slowly appeared before all the audience members at the scene and those watching the live broadcast.

On the futuristic LED screen, all sorts of images began to appear: smiling faces of people of all races, smiling faces of children from all over the world, presenting a peaceful scene to all the viewers.

At that time, the live broadcast camera focused almost entirely on this huge "globe," where a tall man in a black performance outfit and a foreign female singer in a white long dress ascended to the top of the "globe."

【? ? ? 】

At that time, the live stream chat was flooded with comments, and many people were saying:
Who is it? Who is it?!

[Aaaaaah! I'm so desperate I'm peeing and urinating everywhere, zoom in quickly!]

[Wait... are all the event organizers and directors on your organizing committee this good at creating suspense and having fun?!]

I'm truly impressed!

……

Not only were the live chat comments exploding, but many audience members at the venue were also in an uproar...

It's important to know that the Bird's Nest Stadium is a super-large stadium that can accommodate 100,000 people, making it one of the few stadiums of its kind in the world!

In such a large stadium, from the perspective of the audience, the two people standing on the stage high in the center look incredibly "tiny"!
It's like looking down from a tall building; the people below seem as insignificant as ants!
You can't say that the audience at the scene can't see it...

In the online live stream, the stage manager and director only focused on switching the camera to the "Earth" below, instead of showing the two singers above.

It's like it was done on purpose!
Many people are so anxious they're running around in circles!
"Who is this? What's going on..."

Meanwhile, in the tea room, the group with itchy noses were also having a terrible headache. Mr. Ma and Mr. Li, being impatient, both stood up and leaned closer, squinting at the screen as if they could see it clearly just by crawling into it.

"That figure looks familiar..." Lin Bei said out of the blue.

"...President Lin!"

"Your mother!"

"Shut up!"

"Depend on!"

What the hell are you?!

Lin Bei's words almost provoked public outrage. When everyone was uncertain, he suddenly pulled this stunt. Wasn't he just asking for trouble?

Lin Bei shrugged and grimaced, but didn't say anything, though his brows remained furrowed.

It's worth mentioning that Lin Bei wasn't the only one frowning; President Qin was too...

But just as President Qin was about to say something to "stabilize" the morale of the troops, a sound came from the live broadcast...

An uproar!
"Oh!!!"

It seems that many audience members, upon seeing something, began to cheer in shock!
Everyone in the tea room: "???"

They were completely dumbfounded!
No...

What are you cheering for?!
What did you see?!
Who did you see?
It wasn't just the bewildered group in the teahouse with itchy noses; many netizens in the online livestream next door were also completely confused...

What are they doing?

[What's with the cheering?]

Did they see something we didn't?

[Is this a perk they offer on-site?]

[Oh my god! It looks like they spotted the performers at the venue using a camera or phone with a zoom lens!]

Who could possibly shock them like this?!

[Could it really be Shen Ming'en?!!!!]

……

Ironically, many of the audience members brought cameras and video cameras with them. In one section of the audience, almost everyone was carrying a "cannon on their shoulder." If the director didn't give them any camera angles and they couldn't see them with the naked eye, they would just use "technology" to show them!
What era are we living in? How could a mere distance possibly prevent them from seeing people?
You think those CEOs who attended the "Sweetheart Queen" concert won't be at the Olympic opening ceremony?
Even if you don't have a camera, do you mean you don't have a cell phone?
These days, mobile phones have tens or even hundreds of millions of pixels, and some phones can even accurately capture the craters on the moon at night!
All I can say is that the camera is absolutely high definition; it all depends on whether your hands are shaky or not!

As long as you keep your hands steady and see the two people at the top of "Earth", it will be a breeze!
"Phone! Phone! Quick, get your phone out!"

In the audience, several young girls saw people around them taking out their cameras or their phones, so they quickly pulled out their phones as well and started taking pictures of the two people at the top of the "Earth" in the distance, zooming in and out again and again!

"Don't let your hands shake!" Old Turtle Honey next to me couldn't help but shout.

"Is it my fault? I couldn't control myself!" the girl replied.

When the camera gets close, even the slightest shake makes it hard to see people clearly. The camera seems to have captured the two singers, but because of the shaking, you can't see them clearly!
"Oh! I'll do it!" Old Turtle Honey said that she was a nurse and that giving injections required a steady hand and a firm mind. She said she would not shake her hand and she would not shake her hand at all!
Taking the phone, the constantly trembling camera lens became as steady as if it were on a tripod in Old Turtle Honey's hands!

And the faces of the two singers at the top of "Earth"—or more precisely, the male singer's face—appeared before them.

"hiss……"

The two women gasped in shock when they saw it!
Next!

His face was then filled with a frenzied "ecstatic look"!

"Ahhhh!!!"

They couldn't help but let out a frantic scream!

Those around him: "???"

Those audience members who didn't have time to take out their phones to check, or whose phones weren't focused properly, or whose hands were shaking and couldn't see clearly, were all stunned by their screams...

"Who is it? Can I take a look?" A socially adept person approached.

You won't know until you see it...

At first glance...

"Ahhhh!!!"

Just like those two girls, he screamed wildly!
"Who is it? Who is it? Who is it?..." The people around who didn't know what was going on were so anxious that they wanted to break their heads off and kick the stadium to find out who the singer was.

The girl next to them wasn't stingy and was about to tell them the answer directly, saying, "It's Shen..."

Can……

She had only uttered one word before she was about to speak.

I just mentioned Shen Ming'en's surname!
Here at the scene...

"Dong dong..."

After a very brief piano prelude, a melodious male vocal performance immediately resonated throughout the entire stadium!
……

"Me and you~"

"Heart to heart~"

"Living in the same global village~"

……

Her ethereal voice, carrying the purest and most sincere emotions, was accurately conveyed to every audience member, both in person and online, in a way that struck right into their hearts…

that moment!
Everyone had a subconscious feeling that gave them goosebumps!

First of all, this song is very likely to be very catchy. Just look at the singing style and vocal style of the first two lines, as well as the memorable lyrics. If nothing unexpected happens, this song will definitely be another high-quality hit!
Many people are immediately captivated by her singing style.

But the second time...

"Whoa whoa!!!"

"Ahhhh!!!"

"Oh my god! Oh my god! Ahhh!!!"

on site……

The whole place was engulfed in a frenzy of cheers!
Not only at the physical stadium, but also in the online live stream next door, the screen was practically flooded with exclamation marks!
Back in the tea room, those who had been feeling relieved because President Qin had made a pre-arranged phone call with Teacher Zhang's assistant were now...

It was so high up, it instantly made my throat tighten!
Your mother!

wrong!

its not right!
This voice...

That voice!

That tone!

Listen...

Why the hell does this look so familiar?!
It's kind of like... their old friend!

Yes!

That's right!

At the scene, almost everyone cheered because they recognized that voice!
At this point, the camera still hadn't focused on Shen Ming'en. The audience in the theater could say they had the advantage of being in a good location, as the camera zoomed in to show him clearly and confirm it was Shen Ming'en. But online, the director and stage manager still hadn't shown him on camera...

How did the online viewers, and the vast majority of the offline viewers who didn't get a good focus or whose hands were shaking so they couldn't see Shen Mingen clearly, recognize him?
The tone!
People's voices are different from each other, and many singers have their own unique characteristics. Whether it is their voice or the resonance in their nasal cavity and sphenoid sinus, they are all very special.

Shen Ming'en's voice is naturally very bright and distinctive. So many of his representative works with patriotic themes have made all the audience remember his voice. Under such circumstances, even if the audience did not see his face, they would recognize him immediately just by hearing his voice!
"No way...no way!!!"

In the tea room, Mr. Ma and Mr. Li, who had already stood up and were squinting as if they wanted to crawl into the screen and follow the internet cable to watch the live broadcast, immediately put their hands on their heads and looked completely dumbfounded!
No...

This...this...this!

Didn't we agree it wasn't Shen Ming'en?!

Wasn't it supposed to be Teacher Zhang's class?!
Wasn't it agreed that Shen Ming'en wasn't qualified enough to participate in the opening ceremony performance under any circumstances?

What the hell is this?!
"Maybe it's just a similar voice?" President Liu was still trying to comfort everyone.

But it was at this moment...

Here we are!

In the live stream!
The stage manager and director finally decided to give the camera to our beloved Yata Ryan from the Thunder!

When Shen Mingen finished singing the first line, the director finally cut the camera to Shen Mingen!
See!

The camera, which had been zoomed out, suddenly switched and cut to the singer on stage!
A strikingly handsome face of an Eastern man appeared before the entire nation—no, the whole world—watching the live broadcast!

That face was young, handsome, sunny, and radiant!
Upright and awe-inspiring!

Holding the microphone, with a friendly yet formal smile on his face, he sang loudly and confidently:

……

"For the dream!"

"A Thousand Mile Journey!"

"See you in Beijing!"

……

That face is highly recognizable!
That face is one that no audience member in the Chinese entertainment industry could possibly not recognize!
Shen Ming'en!

It's him! It's him!
it's him!
It's that cockroach bully, that scoundrel who drove foreigners to save the country, it's Thunder Yata Rayne!
What appeared in front of the audience's cameras was not only Shen Ming'en's face, but also a line of subtitles introducing the opening ceremony's theme song, "Me and You"!

It is clearly marked on the surface:

"Me and You"

Performed by: Shen Ming'en and Sally

Lyricist: Shen Ming'en

Composer: Shen Ming'en

【oh!!!】

【Ah ah ah ah ah! ! ! 】

The moment it was confirmed, it wasn't just the offline audience who cheered; the online live stream was filled with all sorts of cheers!
The barrage of comments almost "flooded" the entire screen!

It's burning up!

It's totally electrifying!!!
[Damn it! Who said it wasn't Shen Ming'en?!]

[I knew my brother wasn't there because he was waiting in the wings! I said it!]

Jump, little black guy, jump again!

[Hahaha... These guys really don't learn their lesson. They were slapped in the face twice by Shen Ming'en's "Beijing Welcomes You" and "Thousands of Mountains and Rivers," but they still weren't satisfied and had to shamelessly get slapped a third time, hahaha!]

[Wow! This is incredible! He wrote both the lyrics and music himself; heaven knows how amazing it is that he's listed as one of the creators!]

[He's got them all! Hahaha! My brother has really got all three Olympic theme songs covered!]

My brother never lies; he always tells the truth and is always honest!

[I feel like Shen Ming'en could write a web novel, titled: "I Really Wrote Three Olympic Theme Songs!"]

[Pfft...Dude, you really know how authors name their works!]

……

No one knew what kind of shock Shen Mingen brought to everyone by appearing on the stage of the Olympic opening ceremony, being broadcast by various CCTV television stations, and being live-streamed and rebroadcast by major network operators at the same time, and what kind of "pride" he brought to his fans and the group of viewers who had high hopes for him!
The Bird's Nest, a stage that countless singers in the Chinese music scene dream of.

A male singer who once sang the full ten beats of E6 stood on the Bird's Nest and shouted: "All you dreamers, you've stood on the Bird's Nest!"

That's how proud I am...

Not an exaggeration at all!
Shen Mingen is not only standing in the Bird's Nest, but also representing the country on the stage of an international event, singing his own original theme song!
Such honors are far superior to those singers who only hold concerts at the Bird's Nest!

This is a true superstar!
With Shen Mingen's appearance, no one questioned his claim that he had participated in three Olympic theme songs!

Originally, the group of online trolls from President Ma's company who appeared before Shen Ming'en's appearance have now disappeared without a trace, just like the tide receding!
Jump?

Why did you stop jumping?

What about insulting Shen Ming'en's voice?
Where are those who are itching to say he's not qualified enough to perform at the opening ceremony?

Come out!
Keep arguing, you guys!

Isn't that a slap in the face?
Tell me, isn't this a slap in the face?
"Snapped!"

In the air, an invisible yet unusually loud slap seemed to land hard on the face of Ms. Liu, the woman in the suit who had just said, "Could it be that the voice sounds a bit similar?"

No one laughed at President Liu...

There's no other reason than that they've all been proven wrong at this moment!

None of them smiled. It wasn't that they were naturally averse to smiling; it was just that they couldn't bring themselves to smile no matter what!
At this moment, they finally understood why the audience had been cheering so enthusiastically earlier...

Because of them, they discovered very early on that it was Shen Ming'en!
"How could it be him... How could it be him?!"

Inside the tea room, the fat man, disregarding the mess he was making, clutched his head and started shouting wildly.

If Shen Mingen appears on the stage of the Olympic opening ceremony, then he will definitely suffer the most, after all, he has put a lot of effort into "smearing Shen Mingen"!
Now, all his online trolls have failed miserably and have been slapped in the face along with him!
Beside them, the white-haired CEO Li, Lin Bei, and CEO Qin all wore equally grim expressions…

Especially that tea master, Mr. Qin!
To be honest...

Right now, President Qin only had one thought in his mind...

A frantic, despairing scream!

The voice shouted:

"What is real!"

"Tell me, what's real?!"

yes……

So, what is real?
During the filming of "Beijing Welcomes You," because Shen Mingen offended Zhou Chujian, everyone felt that given Zhou Chujian's connections in the Olympics, Shen Mingen wasn't even qualified to participate in the smallest Olympics-related promotional activity...

The results of it?
As a result, Shen Mingen made a surprise appearance on the Great Wall, standing atop the stars, in the most prominent and eye-catching position of the entire song and music video, singing the chorus of "Beijing Welcomes You"!

On the day of the solo performance at the Imperial Ancestral Temple, inside information indicated that the soloist was Chen Guangrong, a veteran artist from the National Theatre of China, and Chen Guangrong had indeed taken the stage. However…

As a result, that teacher "passed by" the center of the stage, and without stopping, walked all the way off the stage and handed the microphone to Shen Ming'en!

just now!

Nowadays!

To reassure the troops and to confirm, he even remotely contacted the singer, Mr. Zhang, who was rumored to be 99% likely to sing the opening ceremony theme song...

The results of it? !

result!

The singer of the opening ceremony's theme song appeared above the Bird's Nest, under the watchful eyes of everyone...

It's Shen Ming'en again!
President Qin is really about to break down...

I really want to ask, what the hell is real anyway?!

So what is steamed?

You said what steaming is!
