Chapter 263: Keep walking in the rain

"When you walk in the rain, if you are a gem, you should sparkle.

Everyone should have a dream, Oh~ if you have a dream, don't be afraid of pain.

When you walk in the rain, if you are a ray of sunshine, you should be warm.

Everyone should have a dream, Oh~ if you have a dream, don't be afraid of pain."

The moment the empowering chorus came out, both Lin Feng and Chu Ming knew that they had completely lost this round.

And they lost fair and square!

Simple, pure lyrics, accompanied by a lively, even somewhat catchy melody, plus Xiao Jingyu's clear and bright singing voice.

The feeling it brought to those who heard it was inexpressible.

This song not only won, but also had over a ninety percent chance of becoming a massive hit.

It might even become one of Xiao Jingyu's well-deserved representative works.

Of course, ever since Wu Anjun chose Xiao Jingyu, her representative works have been appearing one after another.

This scene even made Lin Feng and Chu Ming feel an extremely absurd sensation!

After all, since when were representative-level songs so worthless? They could appear so casually!

Xiao Jingyu on stage naturally didn't know the thoughts of the two Ace Composers; she had already started singing Section B after the interlude.

"There are vultures circling ahead, and sharp whispers behind.

A dark fairytale is a baptism for growing up.

Being unique is trendy, an irreplicable self,

Let me look good even when I'm hurt."

This section of humorous, self-deprecating lyrics instantly touched many of the audience and netizens.

Recalling everything that had happened to Xiao Jingyu.

They even felt that at this moment, Xiao Jingyu was completely singing about her own personal experiences.

And she was unreservedly using herself as an inspiring example, giving strength to those who heard it through her own personal experiences!

This was truly remarkable.

After all, in such a difficult situation and circumstances, Xiao Jingyu, a girl, had stubbornly been reborn from the ashes.

What right did they have to give up easily?

Just as the later lyrics said, "You can push me off a cliff, I can learn to fly!"

At this moment, many of the audience and netizens actually felt very inspired! They felt full of strength when facing difficulties.

Perhaps this was the charm of a good inspirational song?

"When you walk in the rain, if you are a gem, you should sparkle.

...

Everyone should have a dream, Oh~ if you have a dream, don't be afraid of pain."

With the same chorus, Xiao Jingyu's voice grew even more powerful.

It was as if she wanted to impart all the methods and ways to overcome difficulties and emerge from adversity to everyone who heard this song.

The song's infectiousness was also pushed to a new height.

Until the final connecting part came out.

"Sometimes falling into a black hole, sometimes climbing a rainbow.

How fate will turn in the next second,

No one will know Oh~

I say hope is endless, you guess dreams come to naught,

Belief and doubt, always have to duel."

This kind of sublimated connecting part, suddenly added at the end of the song, was not the first time the audience and netizens had heard it.

But every time such a design appeared, it always gave them great surprises and a sense of novelty!

It seemed that both Su Yu and Wu Anjun liked to add such a magnificent connecting part when writing songs.

Anyway, in the eyes of some composers, the works of Su Yu and Wu Anjun were very extravagant.

After all, the previous lyrics and melody were already excellent enough, so why insist on continuing to pile on good material?

This would make their own works seem subpar, and that they weren't working hard enough to write songs!

"When you walk in the rain, if you are a gem, you should sparkle.

Everyone should have a dream, Oh~ if you have a dream, don't be afraid of pain."

When the chorus returned, Xiao Jingyu on stage, halfway through singing, directed her words towards the live audience, shouting, "Together!"

The next moment, an incredibly exaggerated chorus of the song's refrain erupted throughout the venue!

"When you walk in the rain, if you are a ray of sunshine, you should be warm. Everyone should have a dream, Oh~ if you have a dream, don't be afraid of pain..."

At this moment, the live audience was incredibly happy, singing with extreme enthusiasm and volume!

However, they never expected that Xiao Jingyu would have so much faith in their learning ability!

Was she not afraid that they hadn't memorized the chorus?

But they were clearly overthinking; they weren't the only ones who had memorized the chorus melody.

Most of the audience at the venue could surprisingly sing along loudly with the melody; even those who couldn't sing all the lyrics were humming along.

This made the netizens watching the video incredibly envious.

"Oh my, I suddenly started envying the live audience!"

"The atmosphere on site must be super high, right? No, I must get tickets for the grand finale!"

"Xiao Jingyu, you are the best! Always supporting you!"

"What doesn't kill you makes you stronger! Go, Zhang Xiaohan!"

Watching such a flurry of comments, Qian Jin, backstage, smiled so wide his eyes crinkled.

The real-time viewership for the semi-finals had already reached 6.9! It was about to break the terrifying number of 7.

He knew this was only the second to last song, and Peacock Fairy, whom netizens called the Great Demon King, was still to perform!

Heaven knew how terrifying the peak viewership would be when tonight's live broadcast ended.

And Qian Jin felt that the average viewership for this show was very likely to break 6.3 or even higher!

The 5.41 average viewership myth of The King of Singers's grand finale had long been broken by Who is the Singer.

Now, each episode of Who is the Singer was actually setting new records for the highest average viewership data in domestic variety shows over the past three years.

That's right, in the past three years, not just 2012!

The song "When you walk in the rain" ended with a perfect flourish amidst the full-venue chorus.

And host Ni Hao also quickly took the stage at this moment!

He had to control the scene before the audience's screams and applause erupted, otherwise, it would waste the already limited live broadcast time.

"A very, very wonderful song! The live audience even knew how to sing the chorus of the song, which is truly surprising and shocking! Wu Anjun, under what circumstances did you write such a song for Xiao Jingyu?"

Ni Hao praised the song at a rapid pace, then looked at Su Yu and began his inquiry.

And his question caused the audience and netizens to temporarily quiet down.

After all, they also really wanted to know the answer to this question.

Although they could guess that Wu Anjun wrote such a song based on Xiao Jingyu's experiences, they still wanted to hear Wu Anjun, the composer, admit it himself.

"Don't you all already know the answer?" Su Yu did not directly answer the question.

He didn't want to help Xiao Jingyu play the victim! Because there was no need! In Su Yu's eyes, Xiao Jingyu had always been an independent, self-reliant, and strong-willed person.

"Then, Wu Anjun, what do you think of Xiao Jingyu's performance tonight?" Ni Hao also understood Su Yu's meaning and directly changed the subject.

"Absolutely perfect! On par with 'brightest star in the night sky' brought by Xie Jie just now."

Su Yu gave his evaluation with great certainty.

As for how the final vote counts for the two songs would turn out? Su Yu felt that Xiao Jingyu would most likely win, as Xiao Jingyu's popularity was higher!

But he couldn't say it out loud...
