This celebrity is absolutely wicked.

Chapter 291 Brighter Than the Sun

Although Lu Ran sang in Cantonese, it wasn't difficult for the audience to understand.

"A Man Should Be Self-Reliant" is a song adapted by James Wong from the ancient melody "General's Command," with lyrics added. It was written for the "Once Upon a Time in China" film series.

As for the singer, George Lam, he is known as having "iron lungs".

In the movie, when this song plays, Wong Fei-hung is guaranteed to win.

No one can defeat Wong Fei-hung with this background music.

The lyrics of the Cantonese and Mandarin versions of this song are not significantly different.

Many singers around the world have covered this song, but none of them have been able to capture the powerful presence of George Lam.

Even George Lam himself, as he gets older, can no longer sing with the same vigor he had in his youth.

For Lu Ran now, it's a piece of cake.

It's New Year's Eve, so we have to go all out!

As the song played, the young martial arts practitioners behind them were also practicing their punches.

Lu Ran's singing continued.

"Courage as strong as iron, bones as sharp as steel."

"A heart as vast as a hundred thousand feet, a vision stretching ten thousand miles."

"I vow to strive for self-improvement and become a true hero!"

The audience in the live stream room was already in an uproar.

"That singing was really enjoyable! There aren't many people in the Chinese entertainment industry who can sing that high note!"

"It has to be Director Lu; even my dog ​​is standing up!"

"Magnificent and awe-inspiring!"

The audience watching Lu Ran's performance included not only ordinary viewers, but also a group of people from the music industry.

The group of people stared wide-eyed as they listened to this.

Is this how you sing?

You're bullying me!

If you sing like that, what are those effeminate guys in the Chinese entertainment industry supposed to do?

Lu Ran's singing continued.

"To be a good man, you must strive for self-improvement every day."

"A passionate man, hotter than the red sun!"

After Lu Ran finished singing this part, all the other music in the accompaniment disappeared, leaving only the sound of the drum.

At this moment, the martial arts teenagers came up behind Lu Ran.

Lu Ran, dressed in white, stood among the boys in black.

He struck a punching pose, and the martial arts teenagers behind him mimicked his movements.

Lu Ran threw another punch, and the teenagers threw a punch at the same time.

On stage, dozens of people moved in perfect unison.

The more synchronized the movements, the more imposing they appear.

To the beat of the drums, everyone's every move was full of ancient Chinese charm.

"Director Lu, please stop hitting me! I'm falling in love with you, but I'm a man!"

"His male hormones are off the charts! Director Lu should go make kung fu movies, he'd be absolutely awesome!"

"My husband is right here, and I'm drooling over Lu Ran."

The audience simply couldn't hold back.

At this moment, at Mrs. Shen's house.

Because it was holiday time, Ms. Shen had already returned to her parents' home to celebrate the New Year with them.

She certainly wouldn't miss Lu Ran's performance at the gala.

After Lu Ran appeared, Shen Fu Po stared intently at the TV, forgetting to eat the fruit she was holding.

After watching for a while, Shen's mother couldn't bear it any longer.

The wealthy woman, dressed in a hospital gown, had her mouth slightly open, drool practically dripping from it; she looked nothing like a goddess.

Aunt Shen took out a tissue and handed it to Mrs. Shen.

"Look at you, so pathetic. Wipe your mouth."

Only then did Mrs. Shen realize something was wrong, and she quickly took the paper and wiped herself.

On the other side of the sofa, Mr. Shen, with a serious expression, was also sitting.

Mr. Shen gives the impression of a powerful business tycoon, exuding an aura of authority without needing to be angry.

Looking at his daughter's expression, Mr. Shen felt a pang of sadness.

This is obviously wrong!
He knew that Lu Ran was an artist under his daughter's company.

Mr. Shen said softly, "Aren't male celebrities in the entertainment industry not exactly clean? How many girlfriends does this Lu Ran have?"

He asked it as if it were just a casual question.

The wealthy woman immediately replied, "He doesn't have a girlfriend."

Mr. Shen was somewhat surprised.

"He really doesn't have a girlfriend?"

“He’s either acting or singing every day, or he’s working out or studying. He simply doesn’t have time to find a girlfriend.”

Mrs. Shen offered an explanation.

She knew exactly what Lu Ran was doing all day.

I've never seen a celebrity who loves learning so much.

Mr. Shen continued, "I remember that people in the entertainment industry don't have high levels of education."

"He's from Qincheng University." Mr. Shen's face showed surprise.

You're not a kid, you're a student from Qincheng University, and you're singing and boxing on stage, is that reasonable?
Shen's father was also indignant at this point.

He refused to believe that Lu Ran was without flaws.

Don't they have any of the bad habits of celebrities in the entertainment industry?

"And what about his personality?"

"She has a great personality and speaks very pleasantly."

"Is their ideological and political stance up to standard?"

"That's too much. Look at the articles he wrote himself."

As if showing off her precious possessions to others, Mrs. Shen took out her phone and opened the notes app.

She carefully saved every single one of Lu Ran's articles.

After taking the phone and glancing at it briefly, Mr. Shen remained silent for a long time, unable to utter a single word.

"I feel like my daughter isn't good enough for him."

At this moment, Shen's father was confused.

Is this still a celebrity in the entertainment industry?

Just then, the sounds of other instruments joined the drumbeats.

A rich, resonant harmony followed.

Lu Ran stopped what he was doing and started singing again.

"Let the sea and sky gather energy for me, to create something new and boundless!"

"Go for it, my dream!"

"Look at the towering blue waves, and the vast blue sky, soaring with boundless spirit!"

"A man should strive to be strong!"

After singing those two lines, Lu Ran let out two muffled sounds.

"Huh! Ha!"

Both of those sounds were full of energy.

"Stand tall and proud, let's be pillars of society, true heroes!"

"With my hundred points of heat, I will shine a thousand points of light!"

When Lu Ran sang those two lines, Shen's father still felt a little regretful.

After all, this is a Cantonese song.

He wanted to sing along, but he didn't speak Cantonese.

But as soon as the next interlude ended, Lu Ran started singing again, and the live stream chat exploded.

In this part, Lu Ran sang the Mandarin version.

"This song actually has two versions!"

"Have you noticed that the lyrics of the Cantonese and Mandarin versions are almost the same? You can sing it however you like!"

"Looks like I can finally show off my singing talent!"

Netizens are already excited.

The lyrics of the song "A Man Should Be Self-Reliant" need no explanation at all. Whether it's a child or a seventy- or eighty-year-old, anyone who hears this song will immediately understand its meaning.

The song is full of power.

In a certain home, a child was waving a toy sword around when he heard Lu Ran's singing. He stopped and stared intently at the television, his eyes gradually igniting with passion.

This applies to migrant workers in rented rooms, students watching a gala, and so on.

This is a song that can get your blood pumping.

On stage, Lu Ran's singing voice resounded throughout the surroundings.

"Be a true hero, with a passionate heart!"

"Brighter than the sun!"

When this line was sung, the audience felt completely refreshed.

"Director Lu, a man among men!"

"Let the land burn!"

"You are the only sun in the entertainment industry! No, you shine even brighter than the sun!"

The internet is already flooded with silly comments.

The audience at the scene felt it even more strongly.

Some audience members even felt that Lu Ran on stage was somewhat dazzling.

In a hotel in Qincheng.

Zhang Lian, the director of the Qincheng branch venue of CCTV's Spring Festival Gala, was also watching CCTV's New Year's Eve Gala on TV.

This year's CCTV Spring Festival Gala had several branch venues across the country, and Qincheng was one of them.

Zhang Lian designed a novel program for the Qincheng branch venue, but the program needed a celebrity to connect the entire program.

To this day, she still hasn't found a suitable celebrity.

But after watching Lu Ran's performance, Zhang Lian immediately made up her mind about who to choose.

This celebrity must be Lu Ran.

"It's him!"

As for new stars appearing on the Spring Festival Gala in their first year and even dominating the scene at a branch venue, Zhang Lian didn't care about that.

The kind of aura she wants in a celebrity.
