When the time came to around 8:40, Su Yu's second work arrived!
And along with it came an overwhelming army of bullet comments!
Because this time, Xie Jie and Liu Ruyan, the holders of the number one spot on February's new song chart, took the stage!
"Brother Jie! Sister Ruyan! It's their turn already? Is this their first time on the Spring Festival Gala?"
"They wouldn't be singing ""iron blood loyal heart"" again, would they?"
"It must be a new song Su Shen wrote for them! Just watch!"
"Speaking of which, Sister Ruyan is still so beautiful, I love her!"
...
Since the first episode of the legend of the condor heroes aired, the theme song of the hunger games, ""iron blood loyal heart,"" has appeared repeatedly in the ears of countless viewers and netizens.
Although it's cantonese, many people can already sing it.
Some older people naturally don't recognize Xie Jie and Liu Ruyan; they don't have the national recognition of Andy Lau!
But after a reminder from their younger family members, they instantly knew.
Oh, it's the one who sings the legend of the condor heroes theme song, then he should be a good singer.
And the song Xie Jie and Liu Ruyan brought today is called "nameless person."
When this new song, with lyrics and music by Su Yu, appeared on the screen, the audience and netizens also breathed a sigh of relief.
They were really worried that Xie Jie and Liu Ruyan would sing an old song.
After all, they have several old songs they've collaborated on, and any of them could be considered a representative work.
If the Spring Festival Gala is worried about a new song failing, it's very possible they would let a singer perform an old song that has already gained market recognition.
As the song's intro ended, Xie Jie was the first to pick up the microphone.
"I am a nameless person on this road,
I have no news, no one comments.
I have to put in all my effort to get an ordinary script,
Twists and turns are just for making a living."
The beginning of the song was a bit flat, and even the video content on the big screen was very ordinary.
It was a scene of a young person, whose face couldn't be clearly seen, living alone in a small room.
Immediately after, Liu Ruyan's singing entered.
"I am the person who left the small town,
The person who has eaten with laughter and tears,
The person on the road, the person who supports their family,
The silent background of the city."
With each line of Liu Ruyan's lyrics, ordinary faces would appear on the big screen.
Many viewers at this moment actually found their own appearance during their usual work in these pictures!
Because they are also the group of people mentioned in this song.
They are the vast majority of ordinary people.
Xie Jie's singing continued.
"I just want to touch with my own hands,
Every moment I've bent over,
Are the soaked footprints left behind worth it?"
Liu Ruyan's heartfelt singing followed.
"If you also feel this choked up,
Then we are friends on the same path,
To all who stand tall yet are ordinary."
When this line ended, many people who are easily moved to tears were already struggling to hold back.
They knew that this song was sung for them, those who are working hard to live, the most ordinary and common people.
And there are many, many such people; they are all fellow travelers, and they are not alone.
As the chorus arrived, Xie Jie and Liu Ruyan's duet began.
"nameless person, I toast you a glass of wine,
I toast your silence and every roar.
I toast you as you bend your back to climb higher,
Living diligently under the sky."
How many people know their names when they are trying to survive in a big city?
So they are all people who live diligently under the sky, they are nameless people.
"You come from a village in the south,
From rough hands,
You stand in the gaps between buildings, but you haven't retreated."
Accompanying Xie Jie's singing, the screen's image shifted to a southern village, where a young man left home to work and live in the big city.
He walked among towering buildings, and he did not retreat.
"I come from the spring of the north,
From taking a step and looking back,
Behind me, there's a farewell intersection that warms every sunset."
Liu Ruyan's singing followed, this time in the north, where the same scene was unfolding.
The winter snow melted, spring arrived, and the young man left home.
They were all very ordinary scenes, very simple lyrics, but this time the impact was immeasurable.
And when Xie Jie's singing started again, it directly brought countless viewers and netizens to tears.
"When the hometown enters winter,
After the train arrives,
The wind from childhood blows again."
Many people, when they first heard Teacher Sun sing this line, were instantly stunned.
It was even said that this was another one of Teacher Sun's legendary moments.
But Su Yu felt that everyone's performance of this song had a different feeling.
Mao Mao's original, Teacher Sun and Zhang Mouhan's cover versions all contained their understanding of this song.
And at this moment, Xie Jie was the same!
The next moment, Liu Ruyan's singing entered, continuing this emotion and impact.
"Recalling simple happiness,
On a familiar street,
Someone will call out with all their tenderness,
(Your name.)"
And when the two finally sang "your name" together, countless people truly broke down at that moment.
In the big city, they are nameless people.
But back in their hometown, someone can always call out their name immediately.
Nameless people, yet also people with names.
This contrast moved many lyricists and composers!
At first, this song was really, very flat.
They even wondered if there was some trick involved in Su Yu's song being selected for the Spring Festival Gala.
After all, the theme of an ordinary person, a nameless person, while good, wasn't enough to be selected for the Spring Festival Gala stage.
Because many lyricists and composers could write such songs.
But the more they listened, the more speechless they became.
Because Su Yu's songwriting ability was still so terrifying!
And the people in the Spring Festival Gala production team were all so cunning!
It was these lyricists and composers who were foolish!
"Oh, person leaving home, I toast you a glass of wine,
...
Oh, nameless person, I toast you a glass of wine,
...
Living diligently under the sky."
The chorus returned, and Xie Jie and Liu Ruyan finally showed their true skill in the final moments.
Their seamless male and female duet instantly thrilled countless people.
The earlier blandness seemed to be preparing for this final burst.
"Oh, nameless person,
Oh, nameless person.
Oh, nameless person, the car is here.
Too many worries, don't look back.
Oh, nameless person, the car is leaving.
Go forward with your dream."
When the entire song concluded, the camera focused on several audience members in the venue who couldn't control their emotions and cried.
Su Yu could confirm that this scene was not acted!
Because during yesterday's recording for the broadcast, many audience members who heard the song live for the first time cried out loud.
The Spring Festival Gala scene at this moment was actually better than yesterday.
And countless "nameless people" in front of their televisions, computers, and phones were crying even more at this moment.
However, after crying, they felt much more comfortable.
Even their pent-up feelings lightened up a bit.
