Chapter 169 Brainwashing with Demonic Sounds
Thankfully, Yu Wei created an AI to sing the song, not him personally. If Yu Wei had sung it, everyone's positive impression would have been shattered...

What everyone expected was a struggle and cry like in "Bubble" or a mysterious and profound feeling like in "Castle in the Sky," but what they got was a string of lively electronic notes and playful lyrics.

There's no good or bad in art, but the difference in style is just too big. Has a serious cartoonist gone into drawing doujinshi?

Yu Wei's previous strengths in "narrative sense" and "poetic quality" are completely absent in this song. The first four lines sound like something a child would play.

"How can you cry? Everything will be alright." Isn't this lyric a bit too direct?

Even Yu Wei's most straightforward lyrics in his previous works, such as "Landscape Painting," were still very much in the traditional Chinese style. Apart from being nonsensical, they couldn't see anything special about this song for the time being.

Is it possible that this is also one of Yu Wei's discarded drafts, something he wrote haphazardly out of boredom...?

However, some netizens firmly believe that there will definitely be a twist later, and that Yu Wei's song is not that simple.

They have reason to suspect that the song starts off abstractly, then gradually becomes more serious, turning the tide in a way that sends chills down everyone's spine.

It's a case of praising by first criticizing.

Just as they were expecting a twist, the next line of the song completely baffled them.

"You are the inner inner inner"
inside inside inside
inner inner inner

inside inside inside
sunshine rainbow little white horse

Beep beep beep beep beep.

What the hell?
A long stretch of something ran past...

This can be called lyrics?

It was written by Yu Wei again. Has he gotten too cocky, or have the readers lost their temper? A whole long "that" section, just padding the word count!

Everyone can tolerate padding the word count in books, but you can't pad the word count in songs, is that acceptable?

Who understands the sense of redemption conveyed in these lyrics? Not only did they hear them, but when these lines of lyrics popped up in the singing video, they were all stunned for a moment.

The repetition of lyrics is normal in artistic creation. The lines "Why am I sad?" in "Bubble" are a typical example. Emotions are built up through repetition and then explode.

But these few "that" phrases seem to have no meaning at all; their repetition is solely for the purpose of repeated brainwashing.

There is no doubt that Yu Wei succeeded. After listening to it, everyone felt that the voice was like a demon in their brain and they couldn't shake it off. Was it repeated so many times because they were afraid that the listeners would forget it?
Is this Yu Wei's real purpose? To deliberately torment readers and fans? Even netizens who just happened to pass by got a beating.

This song is like some kind of auditory virus; the melody penetrates the eardrums and begins to loop stubbornly.

My ears are getting pregnant because they've been exposed to strong alkali...

How could Yu Wei be so mean? He used to create great works to cleanse everyone's ears, and now he's throwing firecrackers into their ears, huh?

These few lines of the song were already catchy, but the stiff AI vocals made them even more addictive. I couldn't help but succumb to them after listening.

Don't laugh at the challenge; they really lost.

Yu Wei said he wanted to write a humorous and cheerful piece, and from that perspective, this song is successful because it genuinely made everyone laugh.

Those who initially thought there would be a twist later in the song have lost hope. These first few lines are too funny, and no matter how serious the rest of the song is, it won't make up for it.

You're right, but...

"Didi da didi da didi da didi da"

Didi didi didi
beep ...
"Beep beep beep beep hey."

Another meaningless repetition marks the fact that Yu Wei's song has gone down the path of absurdity and there is no turning back.

Are song lyrics these days just padding the word count?

It seems there won't be any plot twists with this song. It's just a parody song that Yu Wei wrote on purpose, with no deeper meaning, just for fun.

When that catchy, addictive clip played again, they were already singing along. This was the first time everyone had ever sung along to Yu Wei's song.

His songs are always new works making their debut, and no one has heard them before. The lyrics are also hard to remember, and even if the verses and choruses are repeated, people can't recite them in a short time.

This song is different. You can remember it after listening to it once, master it after listening to it twice, and recite it fluently after listening to it three times.

Who cares what it is, just sing it.

The second part, the "that one" section, is even longer, and they've already mastered it without a teacher; the melody comes to mind as soon as they see the lyrics.

I understand. Yu Wei was afraid that people wouldn't be able to learn his songs, so he deliberately released a simple one.

After listening to it twice, they gradually discovered that the song was quite interesting; it didn't have any profound or mysterious meanings, it was just pure joy.

This doesn't feel like listening to music; it's more like listening to a meme video. You don't need to understand it or provide lengthy explanations; you just need to enjoy it.

You are the strongest and the best!
The brightest and most luminous

I can't stop you from sprouting
You are the best and the most beautiful
The most wonderful and proudest!

Bloom in full glory!

The crowd's gaze began to shift; they were still observing, but no longer scrutinizing, but rather filled with a gradually awakening curiosity.

Being praised so suddenly makes me feel a little embarrassed...

Although it's just simple praise in the lyrics, it makes you feel happy after listening to it. Perhaps it's because of the cheerful atmosphere created in the beginning, or perhaps it's because the songwriter is Yu Wei.

Yu Wei's song praises them, which is practically Yu Wei praising them personally, and that's a good thing.

Although I'm reluctant to admit it, listening to this song was truly enjoyable. It felt like a switch had been turned on, and long-suppressed emotions found an outlet.

The atmosphere was right, so they stopped resisting and immersed themselves completely in the song's upbeat melody.

I can't say for sure about other things, but Yu Wei definitely has something in there in this song. Analyzing the lyrics, music, and production doesn't make any sense, but it's just fun.

Life is a joke, don't listen to it while crying.
Don't worry about the joke falling apart; it's just silly of you to be unhappy.
Your heart needs you to comfort it and everything will be alright.
Bring it all on, the world is yours to play with.

These few lines seem to be the true core of "Sunshine, Rainbow, Little White Horse": the simple joy of letting go of all burdens.

It doesn't attempt to convey profound philosophical thoughts; instead, it uses the most straightforward rhythm and lyrics to pry open the hard shell and inject a sense of inexplicable joy into the heart. "Didi-da didi-da" continues to play in their minds, each echo bringing a tiny bit of pleasure.

Yu Wei seems to really understand...

His song is not only joyful on its own, but it can also bring joy to people offstage. It's not easy to write a comedy song like this.

True joy is not complicated or designed; sometimes it comes from the simplest and most direct melodies and the purest release.

Yu Wei's song is indeed extraordinary; only simple, even somewhat naive songs can provide the most authentic joy.

While the song isn't exactly outstanding, it's definitely good enough for a bit of fun.

This experience didn't end with the performance. They might still unconsciously hum this tune when they encounter troubles in the future, which is the true meaning of this song.

They couldn't help but recall the song Yu Wei sang to her fans before: "Singing this song for you has no particular style; it simply represents my desire to bring you happiness."

Yu Wei's song perfectly embodies this lyric; this time, he truly just wanted to bring joy to everyone.

"I admit that I was a little too loud at Yu Wei at first. I enjoyed listening to the song. Thank you, Yu Wei."

"I did underestimate Yu Wei's creative ability. It feels like he can handle any style."

"It's similar to his previous songs. The core of this song is still positive and uplifting, but the melody and lyrics are really fun. It's a new attempt."

"Indeed, it made me feel more positive and motivated."

"The song is good, but when I played it out loud just now, a black guy kept staring at me. Does anyone know what's going on?"

The change in netizens' attitudes toward this song reflects Yu Wei's state of mind. When he first heard the song, his first reaction was, "What is this crap?"

But after listening to it for a while, I found it quite interesting. It's hard to describe this kind of song as good or bad; it just depends on whether you enjoy listening to it or not.

If you can enjoy it, then it's a good song; if you don't get it, then it's just inexplicable.

However, it's clear that quite a few people find this song interesting. Su Jian's vote was easily crushed by "Zhang Wei," who is undoubtedly a powerful native AI.

"Yu Wei finally revealed his true nature."

Others thought Yu Wei was crazy for writing this song, but Qi Luoan felt that this was exactly Yu Wei's intention.

He's the kind of person who likes to stir things up and see how netizens react. He prefers watching the drama unfold rather than showing off.

Although he managed to pull it off, it's precisely this kind of thing that leaves netizens scratching their heads that he enjoys, and that's probably what he's trying to achieve by writing entertainment novels and fabricating history.

He really has some ideas for writing a nonsensical song to amuse netizens...

"A very bold creative approach."

Shen Yutong had never really seen a song written in such a nonsensical way. There were similar comedic songs, but those creators always added a bit of their own personal touch.

But Yu Wei's song is simply about happiness; the lyrics and melody are all about being nonsensical, carefree, and without worries.

This opened up a whole new world for her; songs can be written like this?

Shen Yutong previously admired Yu Wei most for his lyrics, but he has repeatedly changed his opinion of him.

Writing somewhat rustic lyrics is one thing, but the other day I even composed a piano piece without any lyrics.

This time, "Sunshine, Rainbow, Little White Horse" seems to be pushing the boundaries of lyrics. The idea is bold, but the ability to realize it is quite remarkable.

"Do you think my creative style is too restrained?"

For the first time, Shen Yutong began to doubt her own path. Being conservative was essentially just relying on past achievements, and she wanted to take a bold new step like Yu Wei.

"A little bit indeed."

Qi Luoan actually wanted to say that there was no need to compare herself to Yu Wei, but after thinking about it, she felt it would be a bit hurtful.

There's nothing wrong with being in your comfort zone for ordinary singers; not everyone can act recklessly like Yu Wei.

However, she had a lot of confidence in her best friend's creative abilities, which is why she said that.

"I understand, I'll think about it carefully."

Seeing Shen Yutong deep in thought, Qi Luoan couldn't help but feel secretly pleased. So she's finally planning to leave. It has to be Yu Wei.

Shen Yutong really wanted to go back and review the song as soon as possible, but she interrupted herself as soon as the idea came to her.

I'm going to get the secret out of you today...

The two stared at each other for another three minutes before Qi Luoan finally couldn't hold back any longer and had to beg for mercy.

"Sister, my dear sister, I have important business to attend to, please go ahead."

If she doesn't beg for mercy, she'll be forced to stop updating. She's so young and doesn't want to be a eunuch, although she can't be one anyway.

"So you're finally admitting you've been hiding something from me?"

Finding out the facts was enough for Shen Yutong. Continuing to press for answers would be going too far, and she shouldn't be pushed too hard. She was just curious, not bullying anyone.

"If you want me to leave, you have to agree to one condition."

Looking at Qi Luoan's anxious eyes, she felt a little tempted to tease her. The more assertive and rebellious a person is usually, the more interesting it is when they soften up.

"What conditions?"

Qi Luoan is really going all out to write, and hopefully other online novel authors will share her determination to write at all costs.

Did you know that Yu Wei can invite a guest performer to sing with him in the second round of "Top Idol"?

As both a reader and the novel's operations manager, Qi Luo'an must have known about this. Why is she suddenly bringing it up? Could it be that...?

"I'd like to invite you to be my guest performer."
