You're about to retire from the entertainment industry, yet your concerts are still so popular?

On the phone screen.

"Oh!~"

Lin Shengnan's scream reached a high C6!

She held her face in her hands, looking like a fangirl, which completely stunned the assistant!

Isn't this a cool and aloof beauty?

Why are you looking at the boss with such starry eyes?!

Although, they do have a kind of handsome man and beautiful woman feeling!

"When did Junior Brother become this strong?!" Murong Shujin was so shocked by the latter part of the chorus that her scalp tingled!

"Nothing was held back, the power was maxed out directly?! Junior Brother's abilities are terrifying!"

"The chorus that the fans in the inner circle wanted to sing was basically around B4! How dare they?!" Lin Shengnan recovered from the lingering sensation of the C6 high note, his face also filled with shock!

"To sing this song, you must first master the high B4 note, and you also need to learn to pronounce B4 continuously before you can even attempt this song!"

She couldn't understand how those fans, mostly male, dared to be so brave!

"You think you can get this song right like that?" Murong Shujin interrupted with a sneer. "No! He raised the key later! And he even pulled back the microphone on a high C5!"

"And his emotions!" Lin Shengnan's eyes widened, her hand trembling as she pointed at Ye Chen. "How could he portray them so well?!"

In the last few sentences, Ye Chen's sense of layering exploded!

The pain in the song was as if it were something I had actually experienced.

As singers, this state of flow is the realm they most desire!

Popular songs can be good just by their lyrics, but it's different for traditional Chinese style songs.

Besides traditional instruments and allusions, what ancient-style songs need most is precisely the emotional rendering and storytelling that Ye Chen has!

"Snapped!"

Murong Shujin slammed her hand on the table!

With her solid foundation in Huangmei Opera, she struck a teacup with her palm, causing it to jump three centimeters high!

"I see!"

When Lin Shengnan asked her that question, she suddenly had a flash of inspiration!

"What Ye Chen sings, on the surface, is technique, but in reality, he's singing about life!"

"How can anyone live a life without pain? What made Ye Chen's song so popular was precisely that heartbreaking life experience!"

The assistant, holding his phone, watched the two goddesses' excited expressions and silently swallowed the words "a perfect match" back into his stomach.

……

Tianyu Entertainment.

In the new movie-watching room.

"As expected! Ye Chen is using emotional resonance to break into new circles!" Watching Ye Chen's song "Understanding," Hua Chengyu became more and more excited!

"This is exactly what I thought! The combination of difficult lyrics and the portrayal of inner pain is indeed something that people can accept!"

The fish looked at Ye Chen with burning eyes!

Ye Chen has already proven the market potential for me with his new song.

So I'll use this method to write what I want to convey!

A song like this could definitely become a huge hit and heal even more people with psychological trauma!

"Ye Chen! I really thank you for giving me inspiration!" Having figured all this out, he was overjoyed to have transformed into a fish!

Li Qiulan frowned slightly: "Yu, are you really not going to watch Ye Chenshan's song first?"

"You all call the songs from the mountain city 'red songs,' so if they're the main theme, there's no need to watch them," Hua Chengyu waved his hand.

He feels incredibly strong right now, so there's absolutely no need for him to look!

He then got up and went straight to his studio: "Sister Li, I'll go polish the new song right now!"

Wu Yifan and Li Qiulan were left stunned: "He actually volunteered to work overtime?!"

……

The scene of the on-site meeting.

When the song came to an end, even Ye Chen himself blushed!

"Don't suffer for love anymore."

"I won't let you suffer anymore."

The song ended.

A deafening roar of applause and cheers echoed throughout the entire venue!

"Ye Chen!!! This is so amazing!"

"Ye Chen! His voice is simply heavenly!"

"It hurts so much! This song is absolutely heartbreaking!"

"The most beautiful and heartbreaking song I've ever heard in my life!"

"..."

Ye Chen's rendition of this song has reached its pinnacle!

That intense emotion, so profound, erupted in a way that was utterly heartbreaking!

Fang Weiguo was filled with sorrow: "Could Ye Chen have been hurt in a relationship? Otherwise, how could she sing so heartbreakingly!"

"..." The niece was quite speechless. "Uncle! Ye Chen doesn't even have a girlfriend yet!"

Not far away.

Duo Duo's mother, her eyes blurry with tears, said, "This feeling of heartbreak... Ye Chen truly understands!"

"Mommy, don't cry, Duoduo will hug you."

Duoduo stretched out her arms and hugged her, even patting her mother's back like an adult.

In the temporary fan group at the scene.

Zhao Xiaogang gritted his teeth and said, "Who still has dreams? Come on! Let Dream-Destroying Mentor Ye Chen extinguish them for you!"

[If I could sing this song completely, even if it wasn't as good as Ye Chen's, I'd be laughing in my sleep!]

[Is this what Ye Chen meant by "giving you a simple song called 'Understanding'"?! Well, I understand now. What I understand is that I'll never be able to sing his songs in my entire life!]

[It used to be fun to grab the microphone, now it's suicide. Voice: This is a high-level game, I'm surrendering.]

[I strongly suggest that Ye Chen's next farewell concert be renamed "Voice Cord Farewell Concert"!!!]

……

Rental housing.

Xiao Yunhai curled up on the sofa.

The phone screen is the only light source in the room.

On the coffee table, the tear stains on the divorce agreement had long since turned yellow.

After three years of marriage, all her hard work and dedication were met with the words, "You don't understand me," until she was told, "We're not a good match."

He thought he would cry, but it seemed he had run out of tears.

Until he numbly clicked on the live stream link sent by his friend—Ye Chen's singing voice came through.

I thought I would retaliate, but I didn't...

His heart clenched, and he gripped the pillow in his arms tightly!

Ye Chen's lyrics are like a dull knife, slowly cutting open his newly scabbed wound.

He seemed to see himself in it:

In the dead of night, I wrote and deleted short essays, feeling helpless like a child trying to hold on, my carefully maintained dignity crumbling into pieces.

"Waaah~..."

Xiao Yunhai trembled all over, and a sob escaped his throat.

He covered his face tightly, but tears streamed down his face through his fingers!

How ridiculous! He even tries to silence his breakdowns and maintain a dignified demeanor even in his pain.

But when the chorus explodes!

Ah! What a painful realization!

There was no sympathy in Ye Chen's voice, only a kind of almost cruel tenderness!

It's okay to feel pain; it's okay to see things clearly because of the pain!

He suddenly burst into tears, like a child abandoned in a downpour who had finally been found!

[...to let you see yourself clearly!]

【…

Don't suffer for love anymore.

The song ended.

Xiao Yunhai put his phone away and sat in the dark for a long time.

The night wind seeped in through the cracks in the window. He got up, gently folded the divorce agreement in half, and threw it into the deepest part of the drawer.

"What a painful realization—!"

He stared out the window at the empty space and howled in a hoarse voice!

He sang terribly off-key, but at least he vented his pent-up emotions.

"That crybaby next door! Are you slaughtering a pig tonight?!" Old Wang's grumbling came from outside the window.

Xiao Yunhai laughed, tears still streaming down his face.

……

The concert scene.

"You! You!" Ye Chen pointed at the loud-voiced guy, "You were trying to lead the charge in suppressing my microphone, weren't you?!"

Are you kidding me? I'm really serious about going to the Bird's Nest for my dream concert!

Nobody can stop me!

Even if my own father came, it wouldn't work!

The loudmouth's expression changed drastically, and he frantically shook his head and shouted in front of the projected image, "I didn't! I didn't! Don't talk nonsense!"

"Alright, alright! I won't hold it against you for now. The next special segment is for everyone!" Ye Chen was almost amused by his own annoyance.
