The entire audience was immersed in Deng Xiaoqi's singing.
Some audience members were so moved by the story in the lyrics that their eyes were filled with tears.
Many others were weeping uncontrollably, reminded of their own past loves, which had been as fleeting as bubbles.
Even Gao Dajin, who had closed his eyes, suddenly opened them, marveling incessantly.
This song struck a chord with the soul!
It spoke of the fragility of love and promises in a steady, low hum.
At the same time, it erupted with immense power, as if seeing through the illusion of love and being reborn from a chrysalis.
It was as if it told people that love was like a bubble.
Beautiful, yet it would pop with a mere poke.
It urged people to cherish their partners and protect their love.
As the song concluded, many audience members still had tears streaming down their faces.
Unbeknownst to them, Deng Xiaoqi's eyes had also welled up.
With tears shimmering, Deng Xiaoqi stood up and bowed deeply to the audience.
"Xiaoqi, your song today was truly perfect!"
At this moment, Liu Huan, another professional consultant who had been silent, picked up the microphone and gave Deng Xiaoqi a thumbs-up, saying.
"Even Teacher Liu Huan calls this song perfect, what high praise that is!"
"Indeed, I recall Teacher Liu Huan rarely expresses his opinions. I never expected him to call this song perfect today!"
"The high notes in this song, only Xiaoqi's voice can convey that sense of despair and helplessness."
At this point, the audience was shocked to hear such high praise for Deng Xiaoqi's song from Liu Huan, a professional consultant for the program and a senior figure in the music industry.
After all, Liu Huan was a straightforward musician who would directly comment on whether a song was good or bad.
He wouldn't consider who was singing it or their status; he was a pure musician who only commented on music, regardless of the performer.
Therefore, Deng Xiaoqi receiving such high praise from Liu Huan was a testament to the song's excellence.
"How long did you prepare this song?"
Gao Dajin also looked at Deng Xiaoqi with curiosity and asked.
Because he noticed Deng Xiaoqi's mastery of the song was exceptionally high, even incorporating her own emotions into the performance.
For a singer, unless the song was self-composed, it was difficult to infuse personal emotion.
To truly become a part of the song required a lot of time spent practicing and refining.
"One night!"
Deng Xiaoqi stated directly.
"What? One night?"
Gao Dajin, upon hearing the answer, almost thought he had misheard.
To achieve such a level of proficiency in a song in just one night, and to naturally integrate her own style, required incredible skill.
"Did you write this song?"
Liu Huan, standing beside him, was also surprised, as it was hard to believe such a brilliant performance could be prepared in just one night.
Therefore, he had reason to suspect that Deng Xiaoqi might be the original author of the song.
Because only the original author could possess such a thorough understanding and grasp of the background and meaning of the lyrics.
"I'm sorry, this lyric was not written by me either. It was written by Teacher Wang Shu!"
Deng Xiaoqi glanced towards the backstage and said to everyone present.
"What?"
"How is that possible?"
"That's simply unbelievable!"
When everyone present heard the name Wang Shu again, they wore expressions of disbelief.
Because it sounded utterly preposterous that one person could write songs for two singers in just one day.
And not just any songs, but songs in two completely different styles. Most importantly, these two singers were rivals competing on the same stage.
And what was most unbelievable was that these two songs were each more explosive and excellent than the last!
Even in their eyes, both of these songs were divine masterpieces!
Backstage, Xu Yunshang was once again stunned by Wang Shu.
She was now beginning to suspect if Wang Shu had written the lyrics and music for all the singers performing today.
It was less of a competition between so many singers today and more like Wang Shu was competing against himself!
This guy was truly terrifying!
The other singers backstage also looked at Wang Shu as if they had seen a ghost.
This was the first time they had encountered someone who not only wrote songs for their opponents but wrote such excellent songs for them.
They even started to feel that fifty thousand yuan per song, which Wang Shu had mentioned yesterday, didn't seem that expensive anymore.
Because the songs by Zhang Ji and Deng Xiaoqi today were so explosive!
Once the program aired, both of them would undoubtedly gain immense fame and rise in status.
Fifty thousand yuan for such results was incredibly worthwhile!
"Wang Shu, it's Wang Shu again. Could it be that all the lyrics and music for today's competition were monopolized by Wang Shu? That would be truly interesting!"
Gao Dajin also said with a hint of teasing.
"The lyrics are wonderful, the music is wonderful, and your performance is even more wonderful! All three are indispensable, and you remain excellent!"
Upon learning that the lyricist was Wang Shu, Liu Huan felt an even greater sense of anticipation and pleasant surprise towards the young man.
Although he hadn't interacted with the young man during yesterday's program, it was because he was so captivated by the song "Qing Hua Ci."
He was so engrossed in appreciating the word choices in the lyrics that he forgot to have a proper conversation with the author.
"This Wang Shu is truly a creative genius! Both singers competing today were stunning."
"Yes, I'm starting to worry, if he keeps writing songs like this, will he end up eliminating himself?"
"I think it's very possible, after all, these songs he wrote were performed so well by these singers!"
Below the stage, the five hundred public judges were also discussing animatedly. They were increasingly looking forward to Wang Shu's performance.
After all, considering the electrifying atmosphere of the previous two rounds, they were curious about what song Wang Shu would sing to surpass these two.
"Wang Shu, I'm also very much looking forward to what you'll sing later!"
In the control room, Chief Director Gong Tao, with a cup of tea, sat in front of the monitor and watched with keen interest.
He hadn't expected this kid Wang Shu to be so generous, giving two divine songs directly to his competitors.
And it so happened that these two competitors were no pushovers, each creating an incredibly explosive atmosphere.
If Wang Shu faltered this time, he might very well be defeated by the very songs he wrote.
Thinking of this, he became even more eager to see what song Wang Shu would sing next to dominate the situation.
