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

Chapter 16: Young people should have lofty ambitions, daring to change the world! New song: "Od

"Ye Chen's song is really going to be a hit! He sings it with such spirit!" Professor Zhang sat in his chair, overwhelmed with mixed feelings.

"Tch, this song is even worse than his usual pop songs!" Wu Yifan said sarcastically, "It's not even rap, it's just shouting, can you even call this a song?!"

"If you don't like it, then don't listen! The door's over there!" Zhang Yiming gritted his teeth.

Zhang Rui scoffed, "Teacher Yi Fan is right!"

"He's been rapping for two minutes, but he hasn't started the second part of the song!"

"I think Ye Chen is just telling a story to his core fans in the audience! Can this even be considered a song?!"

"You...!" Zhang Yiming pointed at him, furious but helpless.

In the community, shouting rap is indeed not mainstream, and it is even considered inferior to traditional rap in terms of social hierarchy.

Professor Zhang seemed struck dumb, exclaiming in astonishment, "You're only focusing on the singing style? Don't you think the song's style and lyrics are novel?!"

"Novel? If you're so capable, why don't you make him stop making patriotic 'red rice bowls'?!" Wu Yifan remained arrogant.

Zhang Rui immediately nodded, saying with a look of disgust, "That's right! Besides freeloading off patriotism, Ye Chen is just a near-top-tier singer who sings catchy pop songs."

"...I can't reason with you!" Professor Zhang said, somewhat exasperated.

……

Right now, in the broadcast studio.

Ye Chen's singing talent is beginning to shine.

The song evokes the turmoil of a century ago, and the prosperity of today, resonating with a sense of historical echo.

Hearing Chen Ping, who was nearly fifty years old, speak with fervor and ambition, I felt a surge of pride that lingered in my heart for a long time.

"Secretary Lin, Ye Chen's song... the lyrics are very profound! But I didn't expect that Ye Chen wouldn't sing it, but rather shout it out."

He said with some regret.

"Minister Chen, this is rap, a singing style that some young people like," Lin Xiaotang explained.

But at this moment, her mind was in turmoil.

Listening to these lyrics always reminds her of that borderland.

When faced with conflict, Regiment Commander Qi Fabao single-handedly blocked a hundred invading Indian troops.

Chen Xiangrong, a border martyr who was only 19 years old;

There are also Chen Hongjun, Xiao Siyuan, Wang Zhuoran...

Their fearlessness in the face of death is what has brought peace and tranquility to China today.

Thanks to their contributions, China is now a completely different country, and all of this is reflected in Ye Chen's lyrics.

Chen Ping's face lit up with sudden realization: "Shouting rap? That's really something that young people like."

"But Ye Chen is different from other singers this time. He can stand on his own two feet, his heart is set on his destiny!"

"These are the kind of star singers that you young people should admire."

Lin Xiaotang opened her mouth in surprise, staring blankly at Chen Ping, unable to say a word.

Is Ye Chen truly capable of upholding moral integrity and a sense of purpose?! Are they trying to elevate him to the status of a saint?!

Is this the kind of celebrity singer young people should idolize?!

...It's hard to believe these words came from the mouth of a minister like you!

This gave her a very unreal feeling.

The song was nearing its end, but fans didn't get to see the second phase.

On the stage screen, the image transformed into an orange-red sunrise over the clouds.

At the same time, Ye Chen finished with an angry shout:

"We've already made countless appearances on stage!"

"...

"We can now speak out loud about the Chinese position!"

"I am fortunate to have lived up to my ambitions and have already spread my wings!"

"We should also remember what the martyrs did yesterday!"

"It's already over, the clouds have dispersed and the fog has lifted."

"Left behind, the brilliance of starlight"

"Gentlemen, behold! There is still more; the ambition remains undiminished!"

Ye Chen's final line, "There is still unyielding ambition," resonated throughout the entire venue!

In the hearts of the audience, only one emotion was burning fiercely!

At the same time, applause and screams from the audience came like thunder.

"Why am I moved to tears listening to this! Just look at this phrase, 'Still having unyielding ambition'! It's truly inspiring!"

"The words are so well written! Perhaps this is what our history teacher wanted us to understand!"

"No wonder we never got to hear the second verse; it turns out the whole song is our history, our story!"

"I'm sorry, Ye Chen! I was just thinking of having you sing a love song; I was so shallow!"

"The visuals and lyrics are perfectly matched! We refuse to sign; the revival is unstoppable!"

"Behold the dawn breaking through the sky, the sun already rising in the east! Dignity lies only on the edge of the sword, truth only within the range of the cannon!"

"...Um, can I finally start singing for Ye Chen?!"

"..."

Ye Chen was deeply moved as he watched the wild shouts from the audience.

Both the lyrics and the music of "Dawn" are very inspiring and exhilarating.

As the music faded completely, Ye Chen bowed to the audience in gratitude.

"I want to dedicate this song, 'Dawn,' to the centennial of the May Fourth Movement in China!"

"But the dawn cannot stop here. As the saying goes, a young man should have lofty ambitions and dare to change the world."

"So for my next song, I've chosen to sing a song about youth."

At this moment, the band on stage...

I frantically flipped through the pages until I found the only sheet music about a boy.

"Teacher Ye Chen is really something. Just one song, and you expect us to guess it?" the band's lead singer grumbled.

In the broadcast studio.

Chen Ping also pulled out the corresponding playlist: "A song about youth, it should be this one, right? Secretary Lin?"

Lin Xiaotang nodded: "Only this one poem, 'Ode to Young China,' is about young people."

"The lyrics of this song, the first few lines... ugh~" Chen Ping's scalp tingled when he saw the lyrics!

Those familiar words and phrases were making his brain feel like it was about to explode!

"Ye, is Ye Chen always this brave when writing songs?!"

Chen Ping was frozen in place, his whole body went numb!

The opening lines are by Leung Kai-chao!

Wait, how come Ye Chen can incorporate any kind of text into his songs?!

After singing mindless love songs for ten years, is Ye Chen's talent really that outrageous?!

……

The audience was stunned once again!

"It's not Morning Sugar! You have a new song to sing?! How many new songs has Ye Chen changed?!"

"Is this guy Doraemon? He seems to have an endless supply of new songs! When are we going to get back the concert that was supposed to be ours?!"

"Yeah, I'm tone-deaf, and I practiced for three months just to sing for Ye Chen! And he sang all new songs?!"

"You're shameless! You actually sang five new songs at one concert?!"

……

Hearing the dissatisfied grumbling from the audience, Ye Chen smiled faintly: "Come on! Let's start the next new song, 'Ode to Young China'!"

"Knock knock~"

As the drums sounded, the prelude began.

The director immediately projected the song information onto the stage screen.
