Entertainment: The microphones are here, why is everyone so silent?

Yu Yang stared at the roaring figure on the screen, his Adam's apple bobbing.

"Lord Hou."

"Um?"

"Delete that link on Xianyu." Yu Yang turned his head, tears still wet in his eyes. "I don't want my admission spot either."

"You... haven't even graduated from university yet, and you can take the civil service exam?!" Hou Junchuan was stunned.

"Let whoever wants to take the exam take it." Yu Yang wasn't discouraged. "If there are no more admission spots, I'll just take the exam myself!"

"We were both idiots, why did we even study music in the first place?"

Hou Junchuan found a clean place to sit down:

"Isn't it all so that one day I can write a song like this... one that people would listen to even if they had to crawl through a sewer?"

Yu Yang sat down beside him: "Yeah, Ye Chen has already paved the way. Now... it's our turn."

In Hou Junchuan's live stream room.

After a few seconds of complete silence, the chat exploded!

This is what true "pursuit of dreams" looks like! I cried my eyes out in my dorm...

"The backbone of Chinese pop music hasn't broken!" I'll remember this sentence for the rest of my life!

[Ye Chen, did you see that?! Your song pulled two geniuses out of the sewers!]

They're right... We've heard so much lip-syncing that we've almost forgotten what a real voice should sound like.

[I've already transferred 500 yuan. It's not much, but I'll use it to buy some medicine for that mother. Please don't sell the instrument!]

……

on the stage.

The song has entered its final stage.

Ye Chen turned around to confirm that the lyrics on the big screen were correct.

He stopped playing the guitar and moved closer to the microphone:

"Shall we do the rest together?"

Upon hearing this, the audience members immediately sat up straight!

"good!"

Despite how unbelievable it seemed, they responded in unison.

The song had already ignited the passion in their hearts!

At this moment, I can finally shout out the passion in my heart!

The cunning director switched the camera to the faces of the entire audience the moment Ye Chen finished speaking.

PDD and other fans who were vying for the microphone burst into tears on the spot!

Chen Tang finally got them to sing a big chorus!

Even if it's just one sentence!

They will sing their hearts out for Ye Chen!

Amidst the overwhelming roar of responses, it was these Morning Fans who were the loudest!

On the stage, Ye Chen watched this scene unfold.

It's exhilarating!

He immediately strummed the strings, and a crisp, melodious guitar sound resonated.

Then came the sound of the entire band's drums, bass, keyboards...

The accompaniment is not complicated, but it is very rhythmic.

Ye Chen timed the accompaniment perfectly and started counting down with hand gestures:

"3, 2, 1! Let's sing together!"

At this moment.

The entire audience roared in unison: "Keep running—! With the pride of a child!"

How can one see the brilliance of life without persevering to the end?

"Rather than linger on, let's burn brightly!"

"For the beauty in my heart"

"Never compromise until you're old!"

The entire audience waved their arms and shouted along with Ye Chen's singing.

Regardless of whether the voice cracks or not, regardless of whether it's in tune or not!

Just sing along!

It's as if all the dissatisfaction with life and the expectations for the future are poured into these lyrics.

In a scream that cracked his voice, he completely let it all out!

In the stands, in the stadium, the "caveman"... everyone!

At the scene, there were PDD, Huang Zhicheng, a lady holding a little girl, the lyricist, the loudmouth...

Even the band on stage was shouting in unison!

Inside the provincial gymnasium, everyone was shouting and screaming with all their might!

The sound of the chorus was like a mountain collapsing and a tsunami crashing!

Off-screen.

Countless audience members joined in the singing in their own ways.

Dilraba, Gulnazar, Han Hong, and others couldn't resist joining Cyber ​​in a duet.

This is the cry of all innocent people!

on the stage.

All members of the band.

The conductor, drummer, bassist, guitarist, keyboardist... everyone was giving it their all!

Although this impromptu performance was very simple.

And they only had a few minutes, but they were completely absorbed in it, no less than when they were playing a Nocturne!

What moved them even more was that this performance took place right in the center of the most dazzling stage!

They only moved the band behind the scenes because they failed in the front stage.

Ye Chen brought them onto the stage this time, which can be considered a dream come true!

That's why they shouted along with the audience!

When the song ended, everyone was inspired.

What does it matter if we endure some hardships in pursuit of our ideals and our goals? So what!

After all the hardships, it was all worth it!

The audience, with tears in their eyes, held up their cheering sticks and waved them at Ye Chen.

……

Zi Linjia.

The final part of the massive chorus resounded throughout the room.

"My goodness! Ye Chen actually delivered a 'response' to his fans!"

Zi Jin stared blankly at Ye Chen, who was shining brightly on the stage.

That intense image.

The emotions conveyed by Ye Chen's singing!

This left Murong Fufu utterly shocked!

Her eyes had already reddened without her noticing.

She didn't take the tissue Zi Lin offered, but just murmured:

"My parents...sang opera their whole lives."

Zi Lin paused, withdrew her hand, and listened quietly.

"When I was a child, the audience under the stage was always packed," Murong Fufu said with a smirk.

It looks like a smile, but it's uglier than crying.

"Later, fewer and fewer people were left... In the end, all that was left was the dust on the stage pillars and a few faded stills from the play at home."

She turned her face away, and tears finally streamed down her cheeks.

"I couldn't take it anymore, so I switched to a traditional Chinese style. I thought... that was the end for me."

On the screen, the broken voice from Ye Chen's climax echoed continuously.

"Zilin, did you hear that? His voice cracked! But no one laughed at him! They stayed with him even as his voice cracked, they ran with him!"

Listening to Ye Chen's song "Chasing Dreams with a Pure Heart," she gradually understood.

Dreams are never a sophisticated thing.

It hurts, it just won't submit!

Even if blood and tears are stuck in your throat, you still have to force out that cry of "Run forward!"

Zi Lin gripped her cold fingers tightly with his other hand, his throat tightening, and any words of comfort seemed inadequate.

Murong Fufu wiped her face hard with her sleeve:

"The performance will never stop. My dad taught me the graceful steps of a female impersonator, and my mom twirled her water sleeves..."

"Perhaps I can no longer stand on the old stage as before."

"But look at Ye Chen! He incorporated opera singing into his songs, and now tens of thousands of people are singing along. He has left his mark on this path."

Zi Lin fell silent for a moment.

Traditional opera is incorporated into songs...

It's so hard.

Only Ye Chen's few new songs are trying out this style.

After a long silence, Zi Lin finally spoke softly:

"Sister Murong, the recording studio is one thing, and the actual recording is another."

"There's also 'Hua Tian Cuo' later on, and the operatic singing style of that song... requires even more skill and is even more dangerous."

"Listen carefully and see how he transitions his voice, how he breathes, and how he blends the soul of traditional opera into pop music."

"What if Ye Chen can't sing live..."

Her tone was that of a sincere friend.

Although the words were not finished, the meaning was self-evident.

"I understand then," Murong Fufu chimed in. "If he can't sing live, it means I still have a long way to go."

"But what if... he could really bring it to life in front of ten thousand people..."

She looked at Zi Lin, her face still wet with tears:

"Then I can continue to follow the new path that Ye Chen pointed out, which is what my parents passed down to me."

Zi Lin nodded slightly: "Let's see. Ye Chen is about to start the next song, right?"
