Chapter 412: *Singer* recording begins, the strongest singers gather

The *I Am Legend* crew rested temporarily after filming for two consecutive weeks.

Chen Mo took this time to fly back to the country, preparing to start recording the first episode of *Singer*.

……

China Hotel.

According to variety show conventions, all contestants would gather for a meal at the hotel before recording the program.

This time, besides Chen Mo himself, *Singer* also included Anita Mui, Leslie Cheung, Taylor Swift, Michael, Madonna, and Zhou Jielun.

"Master!"

As soon as Chen Mo walked into the restaurant, he saw Anita Mui chatting with Leslie Cheung.

The two were also talking to Michael next to them from time to time.

"Momo, you're here, come sit quickly."

Seeing Chen Mo, Anita Mui immediately smiled and beckoned Chen Mo to sit beside her.

Zhou Jielun and Taylor Swift were also in the restaurant.

Although the two of them didn't have low fame now, facing these music scene seniors, and even music scene legends, the two were still very constrained, sitting obediently on the side as juniors.

"Momo, the program you're holding this time is interesting. I've long wanted to compete on the same stage with powerful singers. Now it's great; powerful singers from home and abroad have all come. If I lose, I'll be embarrassed."

Leslie Cheung joked half-jokingly.

Not only Leslie Cheung, but everyone present felt that Chen Mo's program was very interesting.

Being able to sing on the same stage with so many powerful singers made them all feel a bit stimulated.

"It's indeed embarrassing, and you'll be embarrassed abroad too."

Chen Mo spoke with a mischievous smile.

"You brat."

Leslie Cheung patted Chen Mo's head helplessly.

He had watched Chen Mo grow up since he was a child, and like Anita Mui, he naturally spoiled Chen Mo very much.

After the few of them finished eating, they each returned to their rooms to prepare the songs they would sing for tomorrow's recording.

"How is it? With so many powerful singers, are you very afraid for tomorrow?"

Leslie Cheung came to Anita Mui's room.

"To be honest, I'm not very afraid of the others; the only one who makes me nervous is Momo."

Anita Mui spoke with a bitter smile.

She had always been paying attention to Chen Mo, and his singing skills had improved a lot over the years, especially the album he just released; his singing skills had already surpassed hers.

If she were really to compete on the same stage with Chen Mo, it would be a lie to say she wasn't nervous.

"Just treat it as playing on stage, don't treat this as a competition."

Leslie Cheung comforted Anita Mui.

Actually, he was also a bit nervous; he hadn't had this kind of competitive stimulation for a long time, which inexplicably made Leslie Cheung feel very excited.

Perhaps the significance of Chen Mo holding *Singer* wasn't just to create a variety show.

It was also for them.

……

The next day, the recording of *Singer* officially began.

According to the program's competition rules, the order of the singers' appearance was decided by drawing lots, and the final win or loss was decided by the 500 audience members off-stage.

The first to go on stage was Zhou Jielun, who sang "Grandma."

As an opening, the reaction off-stage was quite good.

The second to go on stage was Madonna, whose classic song completely heated up the atmosphere, followed by Michael and Taylor Swift, who each performed their signature songs.

Leslie Cheung's performance followed closely.

He stood in the middle of the stage and sang "I."

After this song was sung, the audience area quieted down.

After Leslie Cheung finished singing, Chen Mo took the microphone and stood on the stage. Unlike the previous singers who had accompaniment, he simply held a guitar.

Wandering, on the road

Are you leaving, via, via

Fragile, proud

That was also once what I looked like

As soon as Chen Mo opened his mouth, everyone in the studio had goosebumps.

His voice was too ethereal.

It was like whispering in everyone's ear.

Not only Chen Mo's voice, but the lyrics of this song also gave people goosebumps.

Especially when Chen Mo sang "I have crossed mountains and seas, and also traveled through mountains of people and seas of people," his voice seemed to carry a sense of detachment.

When Chen Mo finished singing, huge applause had already erupted in the studio venue.

"No need to compete for this round, Momo is definitely first."

Anita Mui smiled, her eyes full of appreciation for Chen Mo.

That little kid from back then had grown into such an outstanding young man.

After Anita Mui finished singing the last song, it was time for the public judges to vote. After counting the votes, the recording of the first episode of *Singer* was finished.

"I like this program very much, looking forward to meeting you next time."

Michael was very happy.

He thought this was a high-level program.

The reactions of the others were about the same; they believed that once this program was broadcast, it would definitely shock the whole world.

*Singer* had just finished recording the first episode, and at the same time, the post-production of *Chinese Paladin 3* was also completed.

"Brother Mo, the copyright of *Chinese Paladin 3* has been purchased by Mango TV with money, and they plan to start broadcasting the first episode next week."

Xu Xiaofeng held the schedule and spoke to Chen Mo.

Chen Mo gave an "um," not caring too much about these issues, and left the remaining problems for Xu Xiaofeng and the others to handle.

One week later, *Chinese Paladin 3* officially started broadcasting.

After *Chinese Paladin 2*, the audience's expectations for *Chinese Paladin 3* weren't very high; at most, they watched *Chinese Paladin 3* because Chen Mo was the lead actor.

As a result, *Chinese Paladin 3* had only broadcast the first three episodes, and the word-of-mouth immediately exploded.

The viewership rating on the first day was less than 500,000.

The second day directly multiplied several times, and the number of online viewers was several million.

In 2007, this was already a very impressive data point.

Netizens also discussed it on Weibo.

"This is the real Xianxia series."

"Sure enough, it only has flavor if Chen Mo is the lead."

"I like everyone this time."

"Is Liu Shishi that newcomer? Her acting is not bad."

"I hope they can broadcast more episodes a day, it's not enough to watch."

In a few days, the number of Weibo followers for the entire *Chinese Paladin 3* cast increased significantly, with the most increases being for main leads like Yang Mi and Liu Shishi.

Originally, everyone thought that Mo Mo Company signing Liu Shishi, who couldn't act, was just cultivating a vase.

Unexpectedly, Liu Shishi's talent was not bad.

It can only be said that Mo Mo Company's eye for talent is too vicious.

……

Chen Mo returned to the *I Am Legend* crew and started filming the remaining shots.

"Sister Wang, I've already thought of a plan for the charity you mentioned last time." ===== CHAPTER 414 =====
