The order of appearance for the singers this time was quite interesting: Xie Jie was fourth, Hua Huoxing fifth, Han Jiangxue sixth, and Wang Shan last.
Except for Han Jiangxue's chosen order, everyone else drew lots for their appearance.
Hua Huoxing was sandwiched between Xie Jie and Han Jiangxue, both of whom sang Su Yu's songs. If he continued with his usual performance this round, there was no way he could achieve a good result this episode.
And as expected, although Hua Huoxing sang a classic old song from Blue Star China this episode, his self-proclaimed advanced arrangement made countless netizens exclaim that it was an eyesore and unbearable.
The variety show's viewership also fluctuated greatly when Hua Huoxing came on stage. Xie Jie's stunning performance of "those flowers" had already garnered a decent viewership, but now it plummeted back down!
When Hunan TV saw the data, they felt like killing Hua Huoxing!
Because this rotten apple had already spoiled several of their pots of soup.
Fortunately, Han Jiangxue, who had the highest popularity and anticipation, followed Hua Huoxing, so this episode's viewership did not drop as drastically as the previous one.
But this also made Hunan TV abandon any thoughts of cooperating with Hua Huoxing again!
Even if Jusha Entertainment offered higher terms later, they would definitely not be foolish again.
And this time, no one in the bullet comments was criticizing Hua Huoxing, because most of them had temporarily closed the bullet comment function.
Let Hua Huoxing's crazy fans shout that their brother was awesome.
However, the bullet comments were just from the same few people, posting similar types of comments.
The number was not even a fraction of what it was when Xie Jie sang "those flowers" earlier.
However, the moment Hua Huoxing stepped off the stage and Han Jiangxue came on, a flood of bullet comments surged in like wild beasts let loose.
They completely overwhelmed the bullet comments from Hua Huoxing's fans, leaving nothing behind.
Such a terrifying volume of bullet comments dumbfounded the program staff.
They knew Han Jiangxue was very popular now, with terrifyingly high popularity, but they didn't know she would be so crazy even before she reached the stage?
"give me a reason to forget"
Lyrics and Music: Su Yu
Vocals: Han Jiangxue
And when Han Jiangxue walked onto the stage and the song information appeared on the big screen, the bullet comments became even more frenzied.
Now they all understood that there was also the added popularity of Su Yu, the newly emerging lyricist and composer, involved here.
When had they ever imagined that a behind-the-scenes lyricist and composer could bring such terrifying popularity?
This was simply a fantasy, wasn't it?
However, ever since Su Yu appeared and delivered one hit song after another, countless viewers and netizens have now developed the habit of checking the lyricist and composer information before listening to a song.
This also gave some other lyricists and composers a sudden level of recognition they had never dared to imagine before.
Although Su Yu dominated the new song charts in July and August, leaving many lyricists and composers unable to stand out, this wasn't necessarily a bad thing, was it?
At least it made lyricists and composers more valued by audiences and entertainment companies.
And accompanied by a somewhat melancholic prelude melody, Han Jiangxue, dressed in a goose-yellow long dress, picked up the microphone on stage.
"【The rain has stopped, why is this sky still gray?
I still remember, you said we should be happy.
Footsteps in the deep night, always jarring.
Afraid of loneliness, let the bustling city accompany me until the lights go out.】"
Han Jiangxue sang these lines very softly, more like a conversation with herself.
And the imagery of this song also emerged with Han Jiangxue's low, narrative-like singing.
Although the beginning was quite plain, this was a song written by Su Yu, which in itself made many viewers and netizens want to continue listening.
It's no exaggeration to say that Su Yu's identity as a lyricist and composer at this time was, in the hearts of some fans, a guarantee of quality.
Of course, this group of people was still very small; most people were still only in the stage of having heard Su Yu's songs, but they were not far from becoming deeply involved.
"【Even if there are many people around, I still feel alone.
Whenever I smile, my heart cries bitterly.】"
Han Jiangxue's singing continued, this time not only did her pitch rise, but the emotion in her voice also became richer.
At the same time, this simple lyric made many emotional people's hearts skip a beat, as if some transparent nerve had been tugged.
"Even if there are many people around, I still feel alone?" Many people have actually experienced this feeling of loneliness.
Now that Han Jiangxue sang it, that feeling of being understood and known truly emerged instantly.
And as the rhythm strengthened and Han Jiangxue's singing gradually intensified, everyone also guessed that the chorus climax was about to appear.
If the preceding verse section was only at the level of a qualified work, whether it could be sublimated in the chorus section would become a true reflection of the song's actual quality.
Many beautiful classic songs are actually only classic in their chorus, or climax, parts.
Sometimes, when you hear the verse section unexpectedly, you might even think it's a new song.
Songs that give an amazing feeling of sparks and lightning from the very beginning of the prelude are truly not that many.
"【give me a reason to forget, you who loved me so much.
Give me a reason to give up, the decision I made then.
Some love, the more you try to withdraw, the clearer it becomes.
The most painful distance, is you not by my side, yet in my heart.】"
And the moment the chorus of this song came out, countless viewers and netizens were directly stunned by Han Jiangxue's terrifying explosive power.
The chorus of this song was not only beautiful, but it also gave a feeling that once heard, the melody would be hard to forget.
To put it simply, its popularity was extremely strong.
And popular songs, aren't the most important thing that they can become popular?
If they were all obscure songs that listeners couldn't sing or remember, what would be the point of popularity?
The B section of the song followed.
"【When I walk, through every place I've been.
I'll always hear, your freest laughter.
When I return, to the place where I live alone.
I'm most afraid to see, that coat you loved to wear in winter.】"
And from this point in the song, the emotions in Han Jiangxue's singing seemed to no longer be suppressed, but rather freely expressing her longing for someone she could no longer see, and the uncontrollable sense of loneliness in her heart!
The subsequent choruses, each higher than the last, also deeply resonated with all the viewers and netizens.
Because it was truly so satisfying to listen to! This kind of unrestrained singing really couldn't be compared to ordinary high notes.
Listening to Hua Huoxing's high notes was a double torment, both physically and psychologically, but at this moment, listening to Han Jiangxue's singing was a high-level enjoyment for both body and mind.
At least the soaring viewership and the surging waves of bullet comments were enough to prove all of this.
