The moment Luren Jia opened his mouth, the audience fell silent.
They had been a bit too emotional earlier, even forgetting that Luren Jia had been delivering emotional blows to listeners all along!
If they had known this, they wouldn't have so enthusiastically called out "Luren Jia's" name just now.
Now that they were at the venue, and didn't bring too many tissues, what would they do if they started crying?
If their beautiful makeup was ruined by tears and, by some stroke of luck, it was broadcast live, it would be a huge public humiliation!
However, at this moment, no one could rein in Luren Jia's emotional blows.
Because his deeply emotional singing, which made people both love and hate him, continued to pour out.
"【Later, I always chose to bypass that street,
Yet I hoped so much to meet on another street.
My longing is stubborn, unwilling to forget,
Blame me for not being able to follow the direction you went.
If the more you love, the more passive you become, the more you must be magnanimous.】"
However, the verse of this song was actually quite alright; its destructive power didn't seem very strong.
After all, they had heard even harsher things before, and an antibody was indeed a good thing.
Just listening to the verse up to this point, the chorus should be next, right?
This time, could the chorus still make them shed tears?
At this moment, the accompanying melody quieted, and Luren Jia's seemingly powerless, questioning voice poured out.
"【What else do you want from me? What do you want?
Your sudden text message is enough to make me sad.
I can't forget, you don't need to remind me~
Even if the ending is like this~
What else can I do? What can I do?
In the end, aren't I just left in the position of a lover?
You never think why I have to be like this.】"
That feeling of being humble in love emerged instantly with the lyrics.
"What do you want from me? What do you want?" How helpless, how passive, how humble must one be to sing this line so profoundly?
"As good as ever! And as heartbreaking and painful as ever!"
"I can't talk now, I'll cry first as a sign of respect!"
"Every time I think I can resist, but I get proven wrong every time!"
"I'm fine, I'm crying by myself! Just now, a young lady at the venue had her makeup ruined by tears!"
At this moment, a high volume of bullet comments erupted.
Su Yu looked at these bullet comments and felt that Bi Huo's deeply emotional and humble persona had truly been perfected!
Meanwhile, Director Qian Jin and the Deputy Director Lü Ming, who appeared again backstage, looked at the soaring viewership ratings and were momentarily speechless.
As soon as the semi-finals began, the viewership rating had already surpassed 6!
At this point, it was only the first stage, and the real-time viewership rating had already risen to 6.271, and was still climbing.
Qian Jin's excited little heart was almost unable to be suppressed from leaping out.
And after a short interlude, Bi Huo on stage was still singing with deep emotion.
"【I slowly returned to my own social circle,
And began to meet new people.
Loving you to the end, neither pain nor itch,
Messages argue over who loved more.
I'm left with a look of no regrets.】"
Luren Jia's singing continued, and the story within the song also continued.
When the "bolded and enlarged" last line of lyrics came out, countless viewers just wanted to exclaim, "Holy cow!"
Even like this, you still have no regrets?
Then what exactly will it take to make a sycophant like you turn back from your misguided path?
Or perhaps, your lack of regret is actually about repeatedly delivering emotional blows to the audience!
Many people felt helpless listening at this moment.
"【What else do you want from me, what do you want?
Please, don't be at my wedding.
I listened to the song you loved and then got in the car,
Loving you was worth it~
I don't want anything from you, nothing at all?
You can't forget the path I walked with you!
Because that was my happiest time~】"
When the chorus of section B, with completely different lyrics, struck, that heartbreaking feeling had already reached many people's breaking point.
Even if they had developed an antibody to Luren Jia's songs, this antibody also had a limit.
But Luren Jia's ability to pierce hearts seemed to have no limit! This was truly tragic.
At this moment, the camera ungraciously swept across the faces of the live audience.
And every time a shot was captured, it was of the live audience breaking down and crying!
The netizens who saw this scene fell silent.
They felt that the program team's cameraman was also being inhumane; this was like pouring salt on their wounds!
Also, for those who clearly had boyfriends or girlfriends beside them, was it really appropriate for them to cry so sadly and emotionally?
It was too impolite, wasn't it?
As the second chorus ended, Luren Jia's previously unrestrained singing receded, becoming steady and low.
"【Later, my life was quite ideal,
I didn't end up lonely because of you.
One night, I had a dream,
You, with white hair, said you'd take me wandering.
I still didn't hesitate and followed you to heaven.
No matter what, I can stay with you until dawn.】"
Although Luren Jia's emotions returned to normal in the last verse, these lyrics were truly too exasperating, heartbreaking, and even devastating.
You'll never forget it for your whole life, huh?
You'll follow even in death, huh?
It's simply infuriating!
However, Luren Jia's emotional blows had reached their limit here.
Many netizens knew that with Luren Jia's strength in this round, even with Su Yu's song as a boost, he probably wouldn't be able to continue.
Because the opponents in the later stages were all too formidable.
Perhaps Luren Jia would only be qualified to compete with those monsters after another year or two of refinement and further improvement in his singing skills?
However, among the newcomers who had only recently debuted, Luren Jia was clearly the top-tier existence.
Of course, there was also Qingtian, another such existence.
And thinking of this, many people suddenly had a realization.
They were all singing Su Yu's songs, and they were all nurtured by Su Yu from their newcomer status.
Could it be that Su Yu intended to cultivate them into first-tier artists, while he himself ascended to the rank of a gold-medal lyricist and composer?
It should be so; at least from the current perspective, both Luren Jia and Qingtian have achieved first-tier popularity.
It's just that the data might still be a bit lacking!
But with Su Yu's presence, it might not be long before they truly enter the ranks of first-tier singers.
Even Giant Shark and Quanxing would not doubt this point.
"A very tear-jerking song! Wu Anjun, what do you want to say tonight?"
The host Xiao Min took the stage, inheriting her husband Ni Hao's consistent style.
"Luren Jia has always been improving, and there's still a lot of room for improvement! Keep up the good work! Don't be complacent."
Su Yu, from behind Wu Anjun's mask, offered his advice.
There was no longer any need to comment on whether the song's stage performance was good or bad.
After all, the audience's reaction already said it all.
And with such a good and grand stage, Su Yu was genuinely a little worried that Bi Huo might suddenly become arrogant.
If he were to be content with the status quo, then Su Yu would truly be disappointed.
"Thank you, Wu Anjun! I will work even harder to improve myself! Please rest assured!"
Bi Huo bowed in thanks, also breathing a sigh of relief.
As for complacency? Unless he had water in his brain!
"I have a concert planned for next year, how about Luren Jia comes as a guest then?"
Ye Mei was more direct, making an invitation that caused the live audience to shriek in surprise.
