Chapter 127 Damn it, who told me Xia Shen had changed? [48 Updates]

Those who were just getting to know Xia Shen found the story very enjoyable and were amazed by his talent.

Only Xia Shen's longtime fans felt a familiar feeling slipping away from them.

It's that feeling of emptiness inside.

However, true fans will not say anything, let alone criticize Xia Shenbian.

After all, Xia Shen is also a human being; he needs to make a living, and his career needs to get back on track.

All we can say is that as long as he's on the show, they'll continue to support him.

Thanks to the relentless efforts of Mango TV to suppress the controversy, the criticisms of the program were only raised in small groups and chat rooms, and the controversy surrounding the alleged behind-the-scenes manipulation quickly subsided.

Soon, the show reached its fourth episode, which meant it had been exactly one month since the show premiered.

Then, the show's popularity not only didn't decline, but it actually increased even more than in the third round of the previous episode.

Meanwhile, within the production team, in the director's office...

Director Zhang Qianglin looked at the materials handed to him by the director and screenwriter.

"How many people were changed this time?" he asked.

What he was referring to was, of course, changing the song.

"Bai Jing, Liang Ziying, and Lin Yue," the director said.

"Xia Shen and Zhou Yumeng don't need to be switched, right?" Zhang Qianglin asked.

Why aren't Xia Shen and the others here?
The director said somewhat awkwardly, "Well... their team has already reviewed it. Actually, although the quality is good and it's not bad in all aspects, it's not a perfect work. At least it can't compare to 'Hair Like Snow,' 'Drifting to the North,' and 'Bubble.' It's a bit lower in level. I think it's better not to let them change it."

“Indeed.” Zhang Qianglin nodded in agreement.

After what happened last week, he finally saw just how outrageous Xia Shen really was.

This song is only so-so. If we change it again and it turns out to be another song like "Hair Like Snow", how are we supposed to compete?
The previous round of forceful suppression had already caused problems, and now the backlash from public opinion has only been managed to be contained with great difficulty.

All I can say is that we should be more cautious about dealing with Xia Shen, the first native to be ranked among the world's top 100.

It's a pity he's not from Xiangjiang; otherwise, he would be very worthy of being promoted, and his future potential would be enormous.

Hopefully, Xia Shen and Zhou Yumeng won't cause any more trouble this time. They should behave themselves and follow the arrangements. This show has provided them with a lot of popularity and commercial value, and they should be grateful.

"Let's begin, host, come on stage." He exhaled slowly and gave the order.

The program officially began, and the host took the stage as usual.

In the lounge, Xia Shen and Zhou Yumeng also took their seats.

The first thing Xia Shen saw was that forty-year-old prince of love songs.

The other person nodded at him in a seemingly very friendly manner.

However, he could still detect a hint of hostility, and even a touch of sarcasm, in the other person's eyes.

Xia Shen felt somewhat speechless.

But he still didn't say anything.

If it weren't for the camera, he would have loved to say something to the other person right now.

Don't worry, don't overthink it, I won't argue with you.

This time, he also prepared a big surprise for everyone; let's see if Hunan TV can handle it.

Of course, no one knows what will happen next.

The program is proceeding normally and in full swing.

The guests took the stage in this manner, with Liang Ziying leading the way, followed by Bai Jing.

This time, the two international singers were ranked relatively low, not high.

Even so, this topic selection was still disadvantageous to them.

This game is originally a game for Chinese people. Even though there are world championships, they are basically just paid for by the manufacturers. There are not many foreigners playing it.

Therefore, their understanding of this game is completely zero, even less than their understanding in the previous round.

With such unfavorable topics for several consecutive issues, the Grammy-winning singer's face had visibly darkened.

So after all that cramming, even their world-class producers couldn't produce any good songs.

Naturally, everyone produced a huge mess.

Then, perhaps to eliminate the negative impact of the previous episode, Mango TV and the production team did not let Zhang Yuge make a grand finale appearance this time, but instead moved her to the middle position.

It was once again a performance where the best of the worst was chosen.

Then, after two more contestants and one singer who challenged the charts pulled a tangle of filth.

Finally, it was Xia Shen and Zhou Yumeng's turn to appear.

The host, standing on the stage, announced, "Next, let's welcome Xia Shen and Zhou Yumeng, the 'Deep Love and Rainy Day' duo!"

In this world, it is the viewers in the bullet comments who are truly energized.

"This is exciting!!!" "Finally!! The part I've been waiting for is finally here!!"

"Now we've got something to listen to. Even with this kind of weird topic, Xia Shen will definitely still be able to produce amazing songs."

"After seeing how many lumps they produced in a row, Xia Shen's worth has been steadily increasing."

"Wash your ears!!"

"Wow, Zhou Yumeng looks so good today."

"It seems like Zhou Yumeng always wears very expensive dresses when she goes on stage."

"How could it not be expensive? It's all haute couture."

"Xia Shen bought it, right? That's too generous of him."

"Just kidding. Xia Shen has so many best-selling songs now. Only God knows how much he's earned. If you actually believe him when he says he doesn't earn much, then you've already lost."

The audience's anticipation instantly soared, and the number of viewers for the live stream surged dramatically.

Zhou Yumeng's look today is still a topic of discussion.

Wearing a white and gold evening gown, paired with Zhou Yumeng's figure and moonlight-themed makeup, she certainly managed to outshine everyone else in this program.

She still maintains her outstanding makeup and styling.

Then, just as everyone was looking forward to a good ear-washing experience, the music started.

Zhou Yumeng slowly began to speak.

"I was originally a support, but tonight I'm jungling. What's the harm in trying out a mere 30,000 days?"

The light and cheerful music, combined with Zhou Yumeng's languid and slightly lifeless voice.

It caught everyone off guard.

"?????"

"Um????"

"What the heck???"

"Boohoo!"

At this moment, Zhou Yumeng swayed her body.

"So what? What else can we do?"

"So what? What else can we do?"

"So what—what can be done about it?"

A beautiful crackle sound, turning into a whistle tone that pierced everyone's eardrums.

And then there was Zhou Yumeng's unrestrained, wild laughter: "Hahahaha—"

Although Zhou Yumeng quickly straightened her face, the corners of her mouth were still harder to suppress than an AK.

"Most people want me to learn to see things from a worldly perspective."

"I studied diligently, with a worldly perspective, remaining worldly until dawn."

The voice cracked, but it continued, a completely different state from Zhou Yumeng's performance in previous rounds.

It completely baffled everyone.

While singing, Zhou Yumeng even mumbled a few lines and forgot the lyrics!

At this moment, Xia Shen and Zhou Yumeng's fans were petrified as they listened to a song full of off-key singing, forgotten lyrics, and occasional bursts of uncontrollable laughter, along with several consecutive verses of "What can I do? What else can I do?" They felt a familiar atmosphere wash over them.

Wash your ears? What a load of rubbish!

It was still a huge lump! Xia Shen and Zhou Yumeng also pooped a huge lump.

But if someone else produces a huge mess, it's probably because they're not very skilled, or there's something fishy going on.

But Xia Shen pulled out a huge lump.

That's totally normal.

"Damn it, who told me Xia Shen changed? How did he change? He didn't show it during the live broadcast, but he showed it on the show!!"
