Chapter 227: Blue Lotus

Under the operation of capital sparing no cost or price, the seventh episode of *Singer* became a hit before it even aired!

A lineup of judges that could be called luxurious, top-tier sound effects, and the joining of first-line powerhouse singers—no matter which point you look at, it was full of gimmicks!

Nan Province Television, having secured the first-round broadcasting rights, could not stop grinning as they watched the ratings climb steadily.

Even the station head had not expected that such a high-investment, high-quality boutique music variety show could be secured for a mere 80 million!

Also secretly happy on the sidelines was Kushi TV; 80 million for internet broadcasting fees might seem high, but compared to such a boutique program, it was not expensive at all!

Moreover, these two media outlets did not expect that there was a huge surprise waiting for them in the program!

Sun Hang is a sophomore at Yangcheng Music Academy. With nothing to do on the weekend, he was chatting and joking with his roommates while distractedly watching the seventh season of *Singer* playing on his laptop.

The previous few singers were all familiar old faces, and their performances didn't have many surprises. Only Zhang Shaohan's new image made his eyes light up. Sun Hang had been a fan of Zhang Shaohan for many years; at first, it was because she looked cute and beautiful, especially those big eyes that seemed to speak, which were exactly to his aesthetic taste.

Later, because Zhang Shaohan was framed and shelved by her company for several years, her comeback on the *Singer* stage was also a major highlight. Hearing her song "Green Light," Sun Hang was still very excited; after so many years, his idol's vocal technique and strength had not regressed, but had instead become even more refined!

You have to know, although Zhang Shaohan on stage still looked so young and beautiful, she was already 42 years old this year! To be able to maintain such vocal technique at this age, she was worthy of being his idol!

Next was Tan Jing's performance; although it was grand and her technique and emotions were full, Sun Hang studied pop music and couldn't muster much interest in folk or bel canto styles.

But the appearance of the amateur singer who followed next gave Sun Hang a shock!

Holy crap, Li Yanliang!

Holy crap, Ye Shirong!

What... what is going on here?

My god, they even invited Guli Nazha?

Looking at these three great masters, Sun Hang's eyeballs almost popped out!

What kind of status does this amateur singer have to be able to get these three to accompany him!

The other roommates who were playing on their phones were also attracted by Sun Hang's reaction, their gazes fixed on the laptop screen. When they saw those musicians, every one of them revealed a look of shock!

They were students of pop music, and to them, these musicians were like god-like existences!

Especially Ye Shirong; ever since the previous lead singer had an incident, he had almost faded from the music scene and rarely played drums. Who had such great ability to invite him out?

When Lin Dazhi appeared, the few of them were all confused.

Who is this guy?

He was handsome enough, and quite manly, but the problem was, they didn't recognize him!

"Nothing can block,

Your yearning for freedom!

A life of wandering,

Your heart is free of worries!"

Holy crap!

Holy, holy crap!

Holy crap, holy crap, holy crap!

Including Sun Hang, the few professional music academy students felt as if they had been hit by a freezing spell the moment they heard this "Blue Lotus"!

When they came to their senses, they immediately pricked up their ears to listen carefully, afraid of missing a single note!

Passing through the dark years,

I have also felt lost.

The moment you lower your head,

You discover the road beneath your feet.

The world of freedom in your heart,

Is so clear and high.

Blooming and never withering,

Blue Lotus!

When the few of them saw the blue lotuses drifting across the entire screen, they were all stunned!

The next moment, Sun Hang jumped up like a madman, grabbed his beloved Martin guitar from his bed, and began to fumble through the melody, following the singing on the computer.

He was a professional; for a song like this, he could remember the gist of it after just one listen!

So, after Li Yanliang's interlude ended, by the second time through, he could already sing along softly!

As the song ended, Sun Hang put down his guitar with a fanatical expression, looked at his equally excited roommates, and swallowed hard.

"Brothers, something big has happened!"

"Yeah!"

The other few, hearing Sun Hang's words, nodded in complete agreement!

"This song is going to be a hit!"

"More than that, this song will be deified!"

"A song that becomes a legend!"

At this very moment, this scene was not only playing out in the dorms of Yangcheng Music Academy; in countless corners of Xia Country, similar scenes were playing out for different people!

A wandering singer was watching TV and playing guitar in his rented room when he suddenly heard this "Blue Lotus" and froze!

The next moment, his eyes turned red, and he was soon streaming with tears!

He felt that this song had touched his soul!

A worker slacking off at their desk suddenly stood up and shouted "Blue Lotus," then, under the stunned gaze of everyone, frantically rushed out of their cubicle, mounted their ADV commuter bike, and set off on the 318 highway for a motorcycle trip!

A professor at the music academy was sitting on his sofa at home playing with his child when he heard this "Blue Lotus" coming from the TV; he suddenly froze, and the next moment, as if possessed, he found paper and a pen to quickly record the melody of the song!

In a Hope Primary School in a remote mountainous area, a volunteer teacher had just finished a busy day of classes and was sitting in a simple dormitory grading homework. The "Blue Lotus" coming from the old TV made him jerk his head up! All the grievances he had endured—family opposition, friends' doubts—all of it seemed to vanish into thin air in the sound of this song!

On a long-distance bus speeding along the highway, a driver who had been in the transport business for years was fighting off sleep while gripping the steering wheel. When the car radio played this "Blue Lotus," in an instant, it was as if he had been injected with a shot of adrenaline; his sleepiness was gone! He turned up the volume and followed the rhythm, lightly tapping the beat on the steering wheel...

The premiere of the seventh season of *Singer* ended, and in less than half an hour, topics regarding *Blue Lotus* rapidly surged to the headlines of every major platform!

*Blue Lotus*, a melody that touches the soul, sparks resonance across the entire internet!

A masterpiece appears in the seventh season of *Singer*; the original song *Blue Lotus* by an amateur passes with a unanimous vote!

Li Zongsheng: *Blue Lotus* is the best work I have heard in forty years!

A dark horse in the music scene breaks into the mainstream with *Blue Lotus*, setting off a frenzy in the music circle!

Amateur Lin Dazhi makes a powerful debut with the song *Blue Lotus*; a masterpiece reappears on the *Singer* stage!

No one expected that after just one round of the seventh season of *Singer*, such a massive piece of news would explode!

Lin Dazhi, this newcomer to the pop music scene, has just debuted and already powerfully climbed to the top of every major trending list with jaw-dropping popularity!
