206: Chapter 206 "Encounter"

Before long, the time reached seven o'clock.

The host's figure also appeared on the stage, broadcasted by the camera into the live broadcast room.

After an opening commercial lasting several minutes, the main event of the Semifinals finally arrived.

Lu Li took out his phone and clicked on the live broadcast screen.

Since there were not many contestants left in this Semifinals, the progress was very fast.

Lu Li basically listened to the performances of the first three, and their skill levels varied.

The first contestant to take the stage, Lin Xiaolu, chose a folk song.

The melody was simple but the lyrics were written with some ingenuity, except that her voice appeared slightly nervous during the performance, and the high notes were a bit unstable.

The second contestant to take the stage, Xu Hang, sang a lyrical-style original song, and the response from the live audience and the live broadcast room was also quite good.

The third contestant to take the stage, Chen Dan's style was as consistent as ever, and her singing skills were commendable, but the emotional warmth of her performance was truly lacking a bit.

After several of them finished singing, the host walked onto the stage with an enthusiastic tone, and applause sounded from the audience for a while.

"Next, please welcome our last contestant today... Shen Qingxue!"

As soon as the words fell, the online user count of the live broadcast room surged by hundreds of thousands in an instant.

The density of the bullet comments was even more than a dozen times higher than before.

Shen Qingxue stood up from the chair and took a deep breath.

Lu Li didn't stand up, just leaned against the back of the chair and smiled at her.

"Go ahead, tonight you are the protagonist."

"Okay."

Before long, Shen Qingxue walked out from the side stage.

The spotlight fell on her, and her dress reflected a soft outline in the light.

She walked to the center of the stage, bowed slightly, her movements calm, without extra words.

Thunderous applause immediately erupted from the audience.

The host smiled and walked up with an enthusiastic tone.

"Teacher Shen, there is no theme tonight, what work have you brought to everyone? Can you briefly tell us about it?"

Shen Qingxue took the microphone, thought for a moment, and then spoke.

"This song is called encounter, and it's a song about waiting and missing out."

She paused, swept her gaze across the audience, and added another sentence.

"Of course, perhaps it's also about hope."

There was another burst of applause from the audience.

[encounter? Is this a love song?]

[Whoa, has Lu Li figured it out? Starting to write love songs?]

[Judging by Lu Li's personality, let's not rush to conclusions. This kid's favorite thing to do in his songs is play on contrast.]

[It is indeed a bit uncertain. If it's a bitter love song, why would the goddess add another sentence that it might be full of hope?]

[Anyway, just listen to it! Produced by Rock Sugar Pear, it must be top quality.]

Stage.

The host didn't ask anything more and retreated to the side stage.

Soon, the lights on the stage dimmed, leaving only a spotlight enveloping her.

Just at this time, the prelude sounded.

To everyone's surprise, the prelude actually used only one instrument, the piano.

The melody of the entire prelude was simple and clean, making people fall in love with this feeling the moment they heard it.

The bullet comments in the live broadcast room even fell briefly silent for a moment because of this.

[Damn! This prelude... feels so comfortable.]

[Although this prelude sounds very simple, it inexplicably makes people want to quiet down and listen.]

[Oh my god, it sounds really good.]

[Seriously, just listening to the prelude gives me a sense of imagery.]

Soon, Shen Qingxue closed her eyes, waited for the prelude to advance to the appropriate node, and slowly began to sing.

"Hearing, winter's departure."

"I wake up in some month of some year."

"I think, I wait, I look forward."

"Yet the future cannot be arranged because of this."

Her voice was a little lighter than usual, without forcing, without showing off skills, just flowing out so naturally.

But the more it was like this, the more moving it felt.

[Holy crap! I thought the prelude was awesome enough, but I didn't expect there to be something even fiercer than it. Whose subordinate is this?]

[Oh mommy, it's basically kneeling at the opening... How did she manage to sing this vibe with this tone?]

[What this sings is not a song, but a feeling.]

[My goodness, not only is this tune awesome, but these lyrics are also awesome.]

But this wasn't over yet. When the chorus part arrived, Shen Qingxue's singing shocked everyone once again.

"Who will I encounter, what kind of dialogue will there be."

"The person I am waiting for, how far away in the future is he."

"I hear the wind coming from the subway and the crowd of people."

"I am standing in line, holding the number plate of love."

When these two lines of lyrics came out, some audience members in the audience subconsciously stood up, as if wanting to hear more clearly.

But once one stood up, like the yawning effect, everyone followed and stood up.

Looking over, more than half of the audience at the venue had stood up.

[I put my words out, I can listen to this song for a lifetime!]

[To be honest, at this moment I suddenly understood why this song is called encounter, because all the waiting is just to encounter a certain person.]

[The goddess sings so awesomely, the sense of story comes right as she opens her mouth.]

[This chorus section directly gives imagery to all the waiting.]

A large number of netizens posted their comments, and the popularity reached a peak once again.

On the stage.

After the interlude ended, it also came to the second verse.

Shen Qingxue's voice also had a little more tenderness than just now.

"Overcast sky, dusk, outside the car window."

"There is someone waiting in the future."

"To the left, to the right, looking forward."

"How many turns does love need to take before it arrives."

After these few lines of lyrics came out, the density of the bullet comments was already so high that the contents could hardly be seen.

[How many turns does love need to take before it arrives... This metaphor is too superb.]

[She sang out a certainty of "I know you will come, so I wait".]

[Before listening to this song, I thought it sounded good only because Shen Qingxue's singing skills were good. Now I understand that without Lu Li, it won't do either.]

[I announce that this song has pre-booked this year's Golden Melody Awards! Too awesome!]

After the verse ended, the chorus rang out again.

"Who will I encounter, what kind of dialogue will there be."

"The person I am waiting for, how far away in the future is he."

"I hear the wind, coming from the subway and the crowd of people."

"I am standing in line, holding the number plate of love."

This time, Shen Qingxue's voice was much heavier than the first chorus, perfectly releasing the emotions inherent in the lyrics.

Just when everyone thought it was over, no one expected that after a short accompaniment, the bridge part of the song was ushered in.

"I fly forward, flying across a sea of time."

"We have also been hurt in love."

"I look at the road, the intersection of dreams is a bit narrow."

"I encounter you, is the most beautiful accident."

"One day, the answer to my riddle will be revealed."

As soon as this ending bridge part came out, the emotion and mood of the entire song were directly sublimated to the extreme.

The audience at the scene and the netizens in the live broadcast room were all dumbfounded.

The speed of the bullet comment screen-scrolling also slowed down because of this.

Many people didn't even know what words to use to describe their mood.

Only after a moment.

Did the bullet comment area of the live broadcast room begin to surge.

[Speechless, awesome!]

[Awesome!]

[Only the word awesome can describe my current feeling.]

Looking across the entire live broadcast room, it was uniformly awesome.

On the judges' bench, the expressions of the five judges were all different.

But without exception, uniformly complex.

Come on bro, they at most served as judges in this kind of competition, and anything higher wouldn't work.

As a result, a supreme god unexpectedly broke out from within.

The achievements gained might even be higher than them as judges, how do you expect them to judge anything, when the contestant is even more awesome than the judges.

Literally judging my ass! No, wait, it should be that they won't even give you an egg to judge! Because they don't have that qualification.
