This explosive rock song, coupled with Su Yu's shirtless, sweat-drenched, passionate live performance, left the audience flushed with excitement!
This song, "natural," truly showed everyone the real charm of rock music!
"He's even hidden so much?" Sean's eyes widened, his jaw nearly hitting the floor.
If these songs had appeared on Era Music King, if he hadn't insisted on using Chinese songs on Era Music King, wouldn't these people have been utterly crushed?
If this song had been performed in the match against him...
Even though he lost to Su Yu on Era Music King, and even though he was full of admiration for him, Sean still possessed his own pride. Now, seeing the quality of a song that the other party casually brought out at a concert, he felt a shift.
Thinking of this, Sean's expression turned from shock to helplessness. A wry smile gradually appeared on his lips, and his gaze lowered.
"yeah you're a natural!"
After the last note, Su Yu spread his arms, looking at the roaring crowd.
The sky-blue support lights, belonging to him, twinkled like a brilliant galaxy.
It was so beautiful...
And the cheers of "Listen to the Rain" he heard.
It was as if an endless sense of accomplishment and honor echoed in his heart.
The stage lights were a bit blinding, perhaps due to the exertion of his performance, as a sense of dizziness returned.
He shook his head and resumed his singing!
...
He then sang several other songs from different countries.
Songs like "Opera 2," with its dolphin-like high notes, drove the audience wild.
He also sang the Indian hit "Tunak Tunak Tun," whose pronunciation sounded remarkably like "I'm playing in the mud in the Northeast." The Indian fans were delighted, and the domestic fans enjoyed it immensely.
The entire venue was filled with laughter and joy.
Su Yu's performance segment concluded, and it was time for the guest singers.
This time, he gave Gong Ju Ren Xu Song's "Mandala Mountain Village."
It was also a song from his new album.
"Alas, the night is cool and the incense is burnt,
There will be a battle with you,
Your sword shadows flow, like my bowstring,
Hard to distinguish between reality and illusion,
Just ask who has the skill, to unravel the knot,
To scatter love and hate in the wind,
Leaving behind only Mandala petals..."
This song depicted the encounter, love, and eventual tragic ending of Madam Wang and Duan Zhengchun in "Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils."
Coupled with the recent broadcast of "Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils," the song provided a strong sense of immersion for the audience.
It was as if they were returning to those moments when the drama had moved them deeply.
It was at this moment that many viewers realized again that Listen to the Rain was indeed Jiang Nan, this genius producer, the very person who had brought them such emotional moments!
As for Jiang Xiao E.
Su Yu prepared a classic love song by Stefanie Sun for her.
"Beginning to Understand."
"I believe you were just afraid of hurting me,
Not deceiving me,
Who would be willing to give up after loving so deeply.
Waking my dreams,
Announcing that happiness won't come,
Forgiving with a bittersweet smile,
And I've overcome,
It's good to still have yesterday,
But tomorrow is my own,
Beginning to understand that happiness is a choice..."
Jiang Xiao E's vocal tone was most suited for love songs, and her singing style had a strong narrative quality. Since love songs were the most touching, Su Yu's positioning for her was to sing love songs.
Backstage.
A staff member handed him a towel and clothes.
Su Yu wiped himself down briefly and then put on the clothes.
Listening to the audience outside cheering the names of Gong Ju Ren and Jiang Xiao E, he suddenly felt a sense of relief.
It was like the satisfaction of finally successfully cultivating a character card in a simulation game.
He picked up his phone to check the time and saw a push notification from Weibo.
"Huh? Wasn't it suppressed by the authorities?" Su Yu clicked on Weibo with curiosity.
At this moment, Weibo's trending topics were all about his concert, but he frequently saw mentions of his previous donation.
It seemed that Weibo could only remove the trending topics but couldn't quell the heat of the matter.
This topic, which had been forcibly suppressed by the authorities, was gradually becoming impossible to contain.
The foreign internet was in an uproar, and the sentiments were all the same.
That Su Yu could spend billions on a wedding ring but only donated tens of millions in the face of disaster.
"Heh, just a concert to make money. The fans are happy to be fleeced."
"How much will be donated from this concert?"
"Selfish people are not qualified to be national idols!"
"Details determine character. To spend billions on a diamond ring to show off wealth, but only donate tens of millions. If you had donated even a hundred million, no one would have said anything!"
Besides these comments with clear malicious intent,
The blogger Sun Taijian, who had been banned, had resurfaced. He had created a new small account and posted over a dozen Weibo messages.
"Are you not even allowed to speak the truth anymore? Keep blocking me, and I'll keep changing accounts. Let's see if you can silence the public opinion. I'm doing this for Listen to the Rain's own good. After all, he is the most popular and influential person in the domestic entertainment industry, and he should set an example. Donating only tens of millions is indeed very inappropriate."
"One cannot be too utilitarian. The money you earn is the public's. Since you've earned money that ordinary people can't even dream of, you should naturally give back to society!"
Sun Taijian's small account's Weibo posts had an astonishing million retweets!
"They're coming on strong..."
Su Yu scrolled through the online comments, a peculiar smile gradually appearing on his lips.
He had previously thought it was just people from the domestic entertainment industry causing trouble, but this massive surge indicated it had started overseas. This meant it wasn't people from the domestic entertainment industry but someone overseas trying to smear him.
And this incident occurred after he received his award at the International Film Festival, so it was highly likely that people from SK Entertainment were behind it.
However, to stir up such a huge public opinion, SK Entertainment alone might not be enough; they must have had help.
Why were these opponents all coming to assist...
Su Yu had many complaints to voice.
In his previous life, he had fallen into depression because of these comments. If he were to stumble in the same place in this life, what would be the difference between him and a fool?
"System, how much have I donated?"
After becoming wealthy, he hadn't paid attention to donation matters for a long time.
Every time he customized a work, the system would anonymously donate on his behalf. He used to think the system's fees were quite expensive, but now he realized their usefulness.
[Ding, the host has donated a total of thirty billion. The charity association used this money to plan the Unnamed Action. Five hundred Unnamed nursing homes and over two hundred Unnamed Hope Primary Schools nationwide were built with the host's donations.]
"That much already..."
Su Yu raised his eyebrows.
Hearing what the system said, he wasn't feeling the pinch of the money. Instead, he realized that he had made such significant contributions without even realizing it.
Nursing homes, Hope Primary Schools, benefiting the elderly and impoverished children.
How could they possibly smear him now...
