Why bother writing songs? Fast forward to the "Don't Laugh Challenge"

Chapter 128: Exiting the Stage, Releasing a Song, Shocking Everyone [Chapter 58]

"I'm kneeling, I'm really kneeling! Xia Shen, you're my dad, you're awesome!"

"Holy crap, this is a really blatant piss!"

"Zhou Yumeng can't hold it in anymore! Mind your image, you idiot! Laughing so unrestrainedly! Are you afraid others won't know you're doing it on purpose?"

"I was stunned. This song is not just bad, it's incredibly awful. If it were anyone else, I would have started cursing, but damn it, it was written by Xia Shen, so it makes perfect sense."

"Actually, it's quite satisfying to hear. Don't you guys think this kind of response is pretty arrogant? Since you're not letting me have an easy time, then you won't have an easy time either. Let's all stop playing this game!"

"The number of viewers dropped too quickly in that instant."

"Are they trying to get eliminated? They've just opened the stalls directly?"

"Couldn't it just be an off day?"

"Others might just be having a bad day, but Xia Shen? Let me explain to those who don't know: he just loves to torment his audience. He'll deliberately release historical songs. That's exactly what he'd do."

"Help!! My ears!!"

"That feels so good, that feels so good. This is the Xia Shen I know."

After Zhou Yumeng finished singing, the ratings and viewership did not rise; instead, they plummeted during those few minutes.

With Xia Shen pulled away, the already difficult episode became even more difficult to watch.

Keep going until the very end, from beginning to end.

Among the directors, Zhang Qianglin's gaze was also quite unpleasant.

Because he didn't expect Xia Shen and Zhou Yumeng to act so recklessly on the show.

But he couldn't say anything, since the other party could use 'poor performance' as an excuse.

He had clearly thought that Xia Shen and Zhou Yumeng could be used to salvage the situation and prevent the show from becoming too bad.

But he never expected that the two of them would cause him such a huge mess.

After Zhou Yumeng left the stage, she winked at Xia Shen and gave him a thumbs up.

Xia Shen nodded in satisfaction: "Well done!"

Believe it or not, he really did it on purpose; that's exactly the effect he wanted.

If he really does nothing, that's not in his nature.

What is Xia Shen afraid of? Is he the kind of person who would be tricked by the production team and wouldn't dare to do anything?

At this moment, Xia Shen suddenly felt as if all the pent-up frustration he had accumulated over a period of time had been released, and his thoughts became clear in an instant.

Now, the production team will probably eliminate them, right?
That's perfect, he can go straight home. Otherwise, he would have had to withdraw from the competition himself.

Right after he pooped a huge poop, the show entered its final stage, which was the ranking announcement stage, after the next two singers took the stage.

Xia Shen originally thought that he and Zhou Yumeng were going to be eliminated this time.

After all, with so many guests, at most they just had a bad day, but these guys were different; they just completely messed up.

To put it another way, it's like everyone else secretly couldn't hold it in and peed in their pants.

He was different. Xia Shen openly and brazenly pulled down everyone's pants, squatted down, and started urinating wildly.

After he finished, he asked everyone if it smelled good enough.
Isn't this going to be phased out?

But Xia Shen never expected that when the final result was announced, he still couldn't hold back his emotions.

He and Zhou Yumeng were still not eliminated.

Although the ranking was very, very low, it was still just barely above the cutoff line.

At this moment, Xia Shen knew that he had achieved his goal.

He and Zhou Yumeng exchanged a smile.

Sure enough, it's not just the contestants who need the show's popularity to boost their commercial value; the show also needs them.

For contestants with high commercial value, popularity, and traffic, they might pull off a big push, but getting eliminated? That's not so easy.

He and Zhou Yumeng were kept on this stage.

Their goal was to prove that the show's producers were indeed manipulating the rankings.

This is the most blatant and direct manifestation.

Just like the discussions on the internet right now.

"Xia Shen and Zhou Yumeng weren't eliminated? Lin Yue was eliminated? Isn't this blatant manipulation?"

"Goodness, Xia Shen has just self-destructed, he's gone all out against the production team, it's like he's completely broken ties, right? It's amazing that the production team is still holding back from eliminating them."

"There's nothing we can do. Zhou Yumeng and Xia Shen are really popular, and they really need that kind of attention." "With Xia Shen and Zhou Yumeng around, there's no shortage of buzz. What's there to be afraid of in this little scandal? Is Mango TV afraid of this? What they're afraid of is that nobody watches the show. Don't underestimate Mango TV's control over the audience's emotions; it's no joke."

"What a pity, they clearly wanted to leave work, but they couldn't."

"They've already started the competition and they're still not eliminated. That's real skill!"

However, at this moment, amidst the ridicule from all sides, Zhang Yuge's fans finally couldn't hold back any longer.

After all, he was a popular love song prince back then, and he was a top-tier singer at the time, so he naturally had fans.

They didn't know what to say about those controversies at first, after all, Xia Shen's songs were indeed amazing.

But things are different now. Xia Shen also pooped on the show, so Zhang Yuge is the only one who didn't poop this episode.

And so they finally rose up in rebellion.

"What? You think your child sang badly on purpose? I think it's just a matter of skill level. Is it so hard to admit to a bad performance?"

"Stop being stubborn. If he was going to say something so awful on purpose, what would it be for?"

"Ultimately, the listening experience this time is not as good as the language style, that's an undeniable fact."

"Winning is winning, losing is losing. Don't make excuses for yourself. Everything is a conspiracy in your eyes. If things don't go your way or not go the way you want, then it's a conspiracy, right? The whole planet revolves around you, right?"

"Some people are really going too far. Stop being so insensitive and think about how to avoid being eliminated."

"Damn it, I'm supposed to be a support but I'm playing jungle tonight. I'm about to throw up."

"She's a minor pop diva, and she's one of the world's top 100? Haha."

The responses from Xia Shen and Zhou Yumeng's fans were also quite simple.

"So what else could this be but intentional? The two rounds are so different, right? He couldn't even hold back his laughter."

"He's just being stubborn. Does anyone still question Xia Shen's abilities? That's hilarious."

"Just because Xia Shen is good at composing historical songs doesn't mean he's incompetent."

"Ha! Zhang Yuge's new song 'Super God Moment' is number one, and yours? You barely made it through, that's a fact. 'Super God Moment' is the theme song for this year's Honor of the Dead finals! What about your world's top 100 singers and so-called little divas? What can they do?"

Xia Shen had actually seen these discussions.

Anyway, he's already started to slack off. Before, he was focused on the stage presentation and devoted himself to the production, blocking out all external interference.

But things are different now. Now, none of these trivial matters matter. So, we can just start having fun and play on our phones right there on the spot.

He was also touched when he saw the fans' explanations.

Where would you see this kind of situation in the early days of his career? Back then, everyone scorned him because he released songs that catered to the market and gained popularity.

Unlike now, when someone makes such a huge mess, there are still people who will defend themselves.

Indeed, there's an old saying that's true.

Great Confucian scholars will surely debate the classics for me!

But even if they aren't eliminated, what difference does it make?
Xia Shen shook his head and immediately opened Weibo to edit the post.

Soon, a post was published from his account.

Xia Shen: I hereby announce that due to personal health reasons, I am withdrawing from the "Singer 2026" program. It is my regret that I will not be able to accompany you all to the end.
Zhou Yumeng's account followed suit.

Xia Shen and Zhou Yumeng also stood up to give their final instructions to the production team.

Anyway, withdrawing from the competition is different from being eliminated, and the production team has no right to refuse to approve it.

As a result, Xia Shen and Zhou Yumeng chose to withdraw from the competition in "The Singer 2026".

At the same time, Xia Shen's various official social media accounts simultaneously released a new video.

The music platform also released a new single.

The announcement was made at the same time as the withdrawal from the competition.

This is Xia Shen's song selection normally.

In the video, Zhou Yumeng is standing in front of a microphone, while Xia Shen is sitting on a piano behind her.

The title is very simple, just a string of words.

Legends Never Die

Countless people were immediately curious, and after clicking in, they were instantly stunned.

"Legends never die, When the world is calling you"
