brilliant.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>As the melodious melody rings out,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Chen and Andy Lau walk out side-by-side, microphones in hand.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They prepare to start singing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Everyone’s gaze is focused on Su Chen.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>From his debut until now,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Andy Lau has always been synonymous with being handsome.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It could be said he has been handsome for a lifetime.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Very few people have been able to steal his spotlight in terms of looks.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Chen happens to be one of them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He is more than half a head taller than Andy Lau.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A massive frame, a heroic build, fierce

Lau,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Louis Koo and Daniel Wu would likely also be eclipsed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The night wind is biting, looking back alone at the dust of the past\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It

it fits the tone of this song perfectly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He sings out that sense of being rejected by the secular world, full of burning rage,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>yet having no way to vent, a sense of collapse and despair.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Andy Lau’s voice and singing technique can be called top-tier.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Like a delicious feast, it is very pleasing to the ear.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So, quite a few people off-stage break into a cold sweat for Su Chen.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Chen is, after all, too green.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even if his singing technique is good,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>can he withstand the pressure of a Heavenly King?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Moreover, it is a Cantonese song.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As a native of the Imperial Capital, can Su Chen ensure his Cantonese pronunciation is standard?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If the Cantonese pronunciation isn't standard, that would be making a fool of oneself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just like how many Xiangjiang stars can't speak Mandarin well, becoming a laughingstock.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The most typical example is Nick Cheung.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He couldn't even pronounce his own name correctly in Mandarin,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>which is how he got the nickname \"Zha Zha Hui.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Amidst the worries of the guests,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Chen raises his microphone and slowly begins to sing along with the accompaniment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Having learned the lesson, guided by the scriptures\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Now I see through it, no longer trapping myself\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Feeling I have a score, no longer as stupid as before\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wiping away tear stains, walking with a light smile\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>………\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As soon as Su Chen opens his mouth, he instantly stuns the entire venue.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Because his voice is extremely clear and pure.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The sound quality is so good it is flawless.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Listening to it is an excellent enjoyment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His live performance is just like a CD.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Furthermore, Su Chen’s Cantonese pronunciation is just like that of a native Xiangjiang person.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>One cannot hear the slightest flaw.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Those who didn't know would think he was a local from Xiangjiang!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Chen’s voice, singing technique, skill, and emotion are richer, more gorgeous, and more high-end than Andy Lau’s.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It leaves Andy Lau stunned.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even Jacky Cheung off-stage is amazed by it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Too great, too good to listen to.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Su Chen is the true God of Songs!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Regardless of whether they are men or women, everyone is completely infatuated with Su Chen.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Men are infatuated with Su Chen\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>because Su Chen has demonstrated terrifying commercial value and earning ability.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Considering it purely from the perspective of being a man himself,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Chen is too outstanding.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They feel envy, jealousy, and hatred toward Su Chen, wishing they could kill him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But measuring from a commercial perspective,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Chen is a God of Wealth, a cash cow.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They all have to treat Su Chen with respect and be polite.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Not to mention the female stars.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They crave Su Chen’s person, and they also crave Su Chen’s resources and money.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>One by one, they are so excited they could almost ovulate on the spot.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tang Tang Xiaowei and Lan Lan Xiaoyan are the most excited.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Other female stars can only get high on their own.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But they have received the olive branch thrown by Su Chen.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They have received the opportunity to hang out with Su Chen.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Perhaps they will even be \"submerged\" by him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This might be the time they most want to be \"submerged,\" right?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just thinking about it makes them a little excited!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If the unspoken rules of the entertainment industry were all like this,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>then let the unspoken rules come more fiercely!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>On stage, the two continue to sing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the dark, it is destined whether you are rich or poor\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What is wrong is never right, what is true is always true\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No matter what you say, I will keep to my duty\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Always believing that silence is gold\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>……Young people, live life with ease\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Keep walking, live life with ease\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>………\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After finishing the song,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>the whole venue erupts in thunderous cheers.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This song has many duet versions.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>In the eyes of many,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>the version by Leslie Cheung, filled with sentiment, is irreplaceable.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But at this very moment,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>many people have shaken that thought in their hearts.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Perhaps the version sung by Su Chen and Andy Lau is the best one!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Returning backstage,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Andy Lau excitedly hugs Su Chen.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You sang too well, it was really too good to listen to. Can I extend an invitation to you?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Next time I hold a concert at the Bird's Nest, right at your doorstep, you must be my guest performer.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I need you too much!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Chen asks in return: \"Brother Andy, are you serious?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What if I steal all your spotlight?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Andy Lau laughs out loud.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Of course I considered that!
