Reading Settings
As the music began, Xue Zhenqian closed his eyes slightly, seemingly immersed in the world of the song.
In everyday life, Xue Zhenqian may be what people think he is—a complete comedian, a comedian, a persona that is funny.
But everyone who knows him knows that once Xue Zhenqian picks up the microphone and prepares to sing, he seems to become a different person, an extremely serious and dedicated soul singer.
At this moment, Xue Zhenqian showed a focused expression and slowly raised the microphone as the melody progressed.
The moment he opened his mouth, Xue Zhenqian's voice was slightly low, but every note was full of emotion.
Xue Zhenqian swayed slightly, as if he were one with the music.
Even if the world is pitch black, I am still beautiful.
In love, being too aggressive or too passive will only lead to being taken advantage of.
[Innocent gossip and disputes]
It doesn't matter how wrong it is.
If you were always praised like me...
The feelings of inferiority surrounding me may fade away.
Actually, I don't care about having many opportunities.
Fearless like a giant
Indulge the demons within me
But I don't deserve it.
As Xue Zhenqian sang, a hint of sadness and helplessness appeared in his eyes.
His gestures swayed gently in time with the lyrics, as if telling a story unknown to others.
At first, the fans in the live stream were relaxed, thinking that this song would be Xue Zhenqian's usual comedic style.
However, as the singing deepened, their expressions gradually became more focused.
Some people frowned slightly, seemingly pondering the meaning of the lyrics; others gently bit their lips, touched by the emotions in the song.
[Ugly monster, oh dear, oh dear, could you please not turn on the light?]
The love I long for appears on a completely dark stage.
【Ugly monster, oh oh oh oh oh in this ambiguous era】
My existence is like an accident.
Xue Zhenqian's voice grew increasingly impassioned, the high notes piercing the silent night sky like a bolt of lightning.
The fans in the live stream were also moved by the powerful singing. At first, they didn't understand the meaning of the song, but now they felt like they were part of the song.
"Old Xue is amazing!"
"This song is so profound!"
"I was really touched!"
As the song drew to a close, Xue Zhenqian's voice gradually softened.
His eyes were filled with warmth, as if comforting every wounded soul.
Some people believe that a single tear can cause a woman to become a source of trouble.
Some people can do nothing without their titles.
As long as you're hypocritical enough
Aren't you afraid of the devil?
[If the script is well-written, who is more noble?]
I can only remain silent in the face of the innocence of beauty.
When desires begin to run rampant, more opportunities arise.
Fearless like dust
If we were reduced to ashes, who would recognize us?
Whether they're a good match or not doesn't matter.
As the last note faded, Xue Zhenqian stood there quietly, seemingly still immersed in the lingering charm of the song.
The live stream room fell silent, then erupted in enthusiastic applause and cheers. Fans left messages expressing their emotion and admiration.
"This song is amazing! Lao Xue, you've created another classic!"
"From funny to touching, Lao Xue's song has given me a new understanding of him."
"The lyrics are so profound, and the melody is amazing! I love it!"
Xue Zhenqian looked at the screen full of praise and a gratified smile appeared on his face.
He knew that "Ugly Monster" would become another milestone in his music career.
Looking at the screen full of praise, Xue Zhenqian said with a smile, "Haha, thank you all for your support. Did this song touch you? Come on, let's talk about our feelings."
Fans actively participated in the discussion, and the live chat was flooded with comments.
"Lao Xue, this song is amazing, it completely overturned my perception of you."
"The lyrics are so profound that they made me think deeply."
Xue Zhenqian read the comments carefully and responded to fans' questions from time to time, creating a warm and enthusiastic atmosphere.
However, after finishing the song, Xue Zhenqian was still deeply immersed in the lyrics because he was so engrossed in the performance.
His eyes were sometimes lost, sometimes sad, as if he were recalling some past experiences.
After a while, Xue Zhenqian said apologetically, "Dear friends, I'm feeling a bit off today, so I'll end the broadcast now. Let's chat again next time."
After saying that, he hurriedly ended the broadcast.
After the live broadcast, "Ugly Monster" caused a huge sensation on the Internet.
On major music platforms, the song's play count skyrocketed, and the comment section was flooded with messages from netizens.
Netizens have conducted in-depth interpretations and analyses of the song's lyrics and the social phenomena it reveals.
Some have pointed out that the line "If the world is dark, I am actually very beautiful" in the lyrics reveals that in a society full of prejudice and hypocrisy, people are often bound by external standards and ignore their own true inner value.
The phrase "Ugly freak, in this ambiguous era, my existence is like an accident" reflects the excessive focus on appearance in contemporary society, which makes those who do not conform to mainstream aesthetic standards feel marginalized and unaccepted.
This song also exposes some of the ugly aspects of society, such as people's vanity and restlessness.
In pursuit of superficial beauty and praise, some people are willing to sacrifice their true feelings and dignity.
At the same time, this song also reflects some of the darker aspects of people's hearts, such as inferiority, jealousy, and fear.
However, this song is not simply a critique, but rather an encouragement for people to dare to expose this darkness and confront their true inner selves.
"Fearless like dust, turning to ash, who will recognize whom, regardless of whether they deserve it or not" conveys a courageous and carefree attitude, enabling people to uphold their beliefs and not be swayed by external forces when facing social pressures and difficulties.
"Ugly Monster" is not just a song, but also a mirror, prompting people to reflect on their values and behaviors.
With its profound lyrics and moving melody, it touched the hearts of countless people and became a classic work with social significance.
Xiao Qingfeng, the lyricist and composer of the song, once again received a wave of praise, and his Douyin followers exceeded 150 million, making him the undisputed number one.
Xiao Qingfeng had just received a call from director Li Guonong. Filming for "Chinese Paladin" was nearing its end, with only three days left until wrapping up. There were still some tasks to be completed.
After receiving the call, Xiao Qingfeng ignored the online discussions about writing a song for Xue Zhenqian and flew directly to the film studio.
Xiao Qingfeng's plane landed in the city where the film studio was located, and he rushed to the filming location without stopping.
Upon meeting director Li Guonong, the two exchanged a few warm greetings.
"Congratulations on your promotion to Heavenly King, that's wonderful!" Li Guonong said with a smile.
Xiao Qingfeng responded, "Director Li, thank you for your hard work. Everyone put in a lot of effort for this film."
After exchanging pleasantries, the two quickly got down to business.
Li Guonong said seriously, "After filming wraps up, the publicity work needs to be put on the agenda as soon as possible. This includes post-production editing and music selection, pre-production publicity, and which platform and time slot to broadcast it on, all of which will affect the ratings and broadcast effect. So I would like to hear your opinion?"
