Chapter 579: You Are My Only Future

The first contestant to go on stage was Hua Xin, a female singer who was favored by several professional judges in the front row.

As one of the professional judges mentioned before, the venue was very lively and deceitful. As a stage performance, it was very good, but when it came to the arrangement of the music, the lyrics were very common and were not very memorable.

However, as an opening act, it managed to stir up the atmosphere.

Someone in the audience screamed, “It’s too explosive!”

“Ah, Xin Xin, I love you!”

“Hua Xin’s songs are really meant to be heard live!”

Hua Xin left the stage after finishing her performance.

Jiang Yu felt that Songwriter had done a pretty good job. They didn’t vote immediately after singing. Instead, after everyone finished singing, they went on stage together and gave a brief introduction. Then they would let the audience review the song they had just sung before voting.

This way, there wouldn’t be any lack of expectations for the previous contestants or being overly conservative, and the voting would be fair.

It would be better to reduce the impact of the order of the contestants on the votes.

The main point was that it would save time, to prevent one person from being long-winded and playing the emotional card.

After Hua Xin left the stage, the second person to go up was the veteran singer, Bei He.

Bei He was in his forties this year and had debuted for more than 20 years. He had been extremely popular 20 years ago, and in the past few years, he had somewhat retreated to the second-tier. He did not have many works left, and the entertainment industry was changing too quickly. The style of his songs at that time…wasn’t very popular now.

But even so, he was still a senior in the entertainment industry. Anyone who saw him had to stand up and call him teacher.

Bei He sang a rock-and-roll song that was very personal to him. But to be honest, it was too conservative and nothing was outstanding about it.

After a few more people, it was finally Jiang Xingyi’s turn.

While the host was still introducing Jiang Xingyi, there was already a commotion at the venue.

“Ah, ah, ah, Jiang Xingyi is coming out!”

“I can finally see him up close in person! Let me see if he is really as handsome as the legends say?”

“Of course! Glory World Beauty, do you understand?! It’s a huge loss for the entertainment industry that Jiang Xingyi doesn’t act!”

“Wait… did you guys get on the wrong set? This is a singing show, right?”

“What song are you listening to? Just look at his face!”

“You’re not allowed to talk about your brother like that. Your brother sings really well!”

“Alright, this is a fan of Jiang Xingyi. Forget it, we’ll find out later whether it’s good or not.”

Although the public judges in the program had been chosen randomly, they were still screened before the selection to avoid a situation where a large number of fans of a particular guest would gather and affect the voting.

Therefore, when they chose people on Weibo, they chose a large number of people who were related to music, such as self-media music critics, the lead singer of an unknown band, and so on. The rest were bloggers from all walks of life.

These people were active on the internet. Of course, they had heard of Jiang Xingyi’s name, but they had never heard of his songs.

After all, in the music industry, there was an unwritten discrimination chain against idols and celebrities. If you said that you liked their songs, you would be laughed at by others.

The crowd gave a symbolic round of applause. In their hearts, they did not look forward to Jiang Xingyi’s songs.

Jiang Yu clapped her hands as well.

Third Brother was about to take the stage.

Jiang Xingyi walked from the side of the stage to the center.

He accurately found where Jiang Yu was and smiled at her.

“Eh, is Jiang Xingyi looking at us? Who is he looking at?”

“Could he be looking at me?”

“Don’t think too much, okay? Maybe he’s looking at me?”

“But you’re so handsome!”

“Lower your voice. Let me admire the handsome guy quietly.”

There was a stool in the middle of the stage. Jiang Xingyi took a step back and sat on the stool.

The bright light dimmed and turned dark blue. The screen behind him turned black.

The prelude began. The subtitles on the screen appeared one by one like a typewriter. Jiang Xingyi opened his mouth and sang the first sentence:

“You told me that you were fine since we last met, but you didn’t know the storm in my heart…”

The tune was melodious. Under the light, he lowered his eyes. One of his long legs rested on the pole of the stool, while the other stretched out as he quietly sang.

There was no wild and cool dance accompaniment, no dazzling dance beauty, no hoarse shouts, and no band that had a tacit understanding with each other.

He sat there alone as if he was slowly telling a story, but his voice entered everyone’s hearts.

Everyone looked at him in a daze, being brought into the picture of the story by him.

“The world has never had a fairy tale, you are my myth…”

On the screen behind him, the handwritten lyrics seemed to have struck into the depths of everyone’s hearts, touching their nerves.

Some people’s eyes were moist.

They seemed to see themselves through the lyrics.

In the end, after a climax segment ended, a short piece of fast-paced music accompanied by drumming. Jiang Xingyi hummed the last sentence softly:

“The mountains and rivers revolve and the galaxy burns. You are my only future.”

The corners of his mouth rose slightly.

His gaze was doting and gentle.

Jiang Xingyi put down the microphone and finished the song.

It was quiet.

No one said a word.

Everybody’s stuck in there, and they’re not coming out.

Until one of them sobbed quietly.

And this one, it pulled everyone back.

The man asked his companion for tissue paper and sobbed quietly, “Sob, Mama Ye, I didn’t think that I would come to this program and actually cry on the spot, it’s really too embarrassing, but I just can’t help it. Sob…”

This tear, it really ran out on its own. She really couldn’t control it at all.

Her companion looked at the sky at a 45-degree angle. It was said that this way, the tears wouldn’t fall.

It was really strange. Why were her eyes moist?

She hadn’t listened to music and cried for a long time.

Could this be the magic of listening to music on the spot?

However, she had never expected that she would cry while listening to Jiang Xingyi sing?

At this moment, most of the people at the scene only had one question.

Was this really the live soundtrack?

Was it all on the microphone?

Did it not have any padding?

Was this Jiang Xingyi’s real voice?

Could live singing sound like this? It was really…

It completely shattered their original expectations of Jiang Xingyi!

Based on their understanding of Jiang Xingyi, they knew that he was an amazing dancer. They thought that he would perform on a cool stage like Hua Xin and perform a solo dance at the end to add points to his performance.

Although this didn’t add any points to the song, it could add more color to the stage. At the very least, it could be considered to have played to his strengths.

In any case, for such a popular celebrity to participate in the program, it was just an additional opportunity to show off.

But never thought that Jiang Xingyi would bring them such a big surprise!
