Chapter 14 Shocks the Entire Internet
Reading Settings
The audience at the scene burst into tears, and viewers in the live stream were frantically flooding the chat with comments, expressing their feelings at that moment.
Backstage at the studio, all the professional singers were also stunned!
Because at that moment, the screen in front of them was showing the explosive scene of the audience crying their hearts out.
This is naturally what director Zong Hai wanted to present to the audience. Once this scene was released, the trending topics and viewership ratings were guaranteed.
Of the six singers, apart from Xia Luan who initially had reservations about Xiao Qingfeng, the other singers also viewed him with a biased perspective.
After all, Xiao Qingfeng's reputation has been bad for the past three years, so people who are not familiar with Xiao Qingfeng naturally assume that he is as described on the internet.
In addition, the company recently hired a large number of online trolls to launch personal attacks against Xiao Qingfeng in an attempt to kick him out of the group.
Therefore, most people in the music industry also believe that Xiao Qingfeng is just a singer who is trying to ride on Xia Luan's popularity and can't sing.
But at this moment, many people realized that their perception was wrong. If Xiao Qingfeng can't sing, then what are they? Aren't they even worse than Xiao Qingfeng?
Xia Luan gripped the hem of her skirt tightly with both hands, her face ashen. Xiao Qingfeng's behavior tonight was tantamount to slapping her in public.
For the past three months, rumors have been circulating online that Xiao Qingfeng can't sing at all, and that's why he only has a few lines or words in the group.
Now, Xiao Qingfeng has once again used his strength to dispel the rumors.
Netizens aren't stupid. It's absolutely impossible for a large number of netizens to slander someone who can sing as someone who can't sing. There must be an online army behind this.
Before the contract was terminated, netizens might have thought that these online trolls who were defaming Xiao Qingfeng were doing it to his rival company, since this kind of thing is very common in the entertainment industry.
However, Xiao Qingfeng has now been kicked out of the group and even expelled from the company, so the reasons behind this are quite intriguing.
After venting their emotions, the audience in front of the stage almost all stood up and gave Xiao Qingfeng a warm round of applause.
At this moment, host He Han also walked onto the stage, and sharp-eyed netizens and viewers could see that Mr. He's eyes were also red.
"Thank you, Qingfeng, for the wonderful performance!"
Xiao Qingfeng nodded politely.
After calming down, Teacher He Han smiled and said to Xiao Qingfeng, "Qingfeng, your song is truly amazing. It's as if it took us on a heart-wrenching journey through love."
Xiao Qingfeng bowed slightly and said humbly, "Thank you, Teacher He. It is my honor to be liked by everyone."
He Han continued, "From this song, I felt a deep sense of helplessness and endless longing. How did you create such a moving work?"
Xiao Qingfeng's gaze was deep as he slowly said, "Perhaps it is my life experiences and insights that have given me inspiration, allowing me to express my inner emotions through music."
At this moment, the audience was filled with excitement and emotion.
One viewer thought, "Xiao Qingfeng has really had a tough time. He's suffered so many misunderstandings, but today he's finally proven himself."
Another viewer silently vowed in his heart: "From now on, I will be Xiao Qingfeng's loyal fan and will always support him!"
Viewers in the live stream also left their comments.
"Teacher He is right, this song is absolutely amazing!"
"Xiao Qingfeng not only sings well, but his answers are also so sincere. I love him!"
"Looking forward to more excellent works from Xiao Qingfeng!"
Teacher He Han spoke again: "I believe this song will become a classic, and I also believe your musical journey will become more and more wonderful."
Xiao Qingfeng nodded firmly: "I will continue to work hard and live up to everyone's expectations."
Thunderous applause erupted once again, lasting for a long time.
In the backstage lounge, Xia Luan's feelings were incredibly complicated.
The melody and lyrics of Xiao Qingfeng's song kept echoing in An'an's mind, and she couldn't help but wonder: "Is he using this song to commemorate our love? Or does he want to use this song to make me change my mind and get back together with him?"
The interview with Xiao Qingfeng by He Han at the front desk is also coming to an end!
"All the competing singers have finished their performances tonight. Next is the voting. Please have Qingfeng go backstage to rest. We'll announce the results as soon as they're available!"
Xiao Qingfeng waved to the audience and walked off the stage amidst their reluctant gazes.
Meanwhile, the assistant director of the other production team has already started organizing the 5,000 audience members to open the voting channel.
In the lounge, the moment Xiao Qingfeng pushed open the door...
A round of enthusiastic applause erupted in the room, and even Xia Luan stood up to clap along. Regardless of their private relationship, Xia Luan wouldn't put herself in a passive position in front of the camera.
However, her expression was not good at this moment, and her mood was even more complicated.
"Teacher Xiao, you sang so well, you made me cry!" Lin Jiarui said first.
Xiao Qingfeng smiled and said, "Thank you for the compliment, Teacher Lin. I am truly flattered!"
Wang Bolun warmly invited Xiao Qingfeng to sit next to him, saying, "When did you write this song? It must be a new song, right?"
Xiao Qingfeng nodded: "This song was written three days ago, and even the background music was just recorded three days ago!"
Everyone was even more shocked to hear this, as the song had only been written three days ago, it was as new as it could possibly be.
Because of Xiao Qingfeng's wonderful performance, almost all the singers backstage were impressed by him, while Xia Luan, who was the most popular, became almost irrelevant.
This left Xia Luan extremely frustrated. She never expected that her first solo performance would be against Xiao Qingfeng, a jinx. It was truly an unlucky year for her.
Thinking of this, Xia Luan couldn't help but hate Xiao Qingfeng again.
Ten minutes later, director Zong Hai led the film crew to the lounge.
The live stream switched entirely to the rest room.
The live stream was buzzing with activity as people shared their opinions on tonight's competition rankings.
"I think Xiao Qingfeng's performance tonight was absolutely number one. His heartfelt singing and moving melody were unmatched!"
"Xia Luan's performance this time was also quite good. She had great stage presence and might even win first place."
"Meifei's performance was as solid as ever, and I guess she can make the top three."
"Wang Bolun's singing is very infectious, and I think he has a chance to win the championship."
"Ashima has a unique style, she might become a dark horse."
"Lin Jiarui performed quite well this time, I wonder what his ranking will be."
“Mickey’s performance was average, so she probably won’t rank very high.”
"Xiao Qingfeng's 'If Love Has a Destiny' is so amazing, other singers are under a lot of pressure."
"Xia Luan has met a formidable opponent this time with Xiao Qingfeng. I wonder what she would think if she were ranked behind Xiao Qingfeng?"
"Mei Fei has solid singing skills; she might be able to compete with Xiao Qingfeng."
"If Wang Bolun can surpass Xiao Qingfeng this time, it will be a real upset."
"Ashima has very distinctive features; it remains to be seen whether the judges and the audience will accept them."
"Although Lin Jiarui is good, he is still slightly inferior to Xiao Qingfeng."
"Mickey is probably just there to make up the numbers this time; Xiao Qingfeng's brilliance is too dazzling."
Netizens are discussing it enthusiastically, all eagerly awaiting the announcement of the final rankings.
