Chapter 537

After taking just a few steps, Benedict suddenly grabbed him.

"Wait, Wu. Is Ms. Bai about to sing?"

Wu Guangren was stunned; he looked up and saw that Bai Xiao Ling had already started walking toward the stage.

She walked over to the sound mixing console on the side and was communicating with the sound engineer.

Wu Guangren was also somewhat puzzled and instinctively stopped in his tracks.

Just then, Ferdinand suddenly strode onto the stage, tapped the microphone, and immediately drew the attention of everyone present.

On the stage, Ferdinand spoke with great animation.

"Ladies and gentlemen, allow me to serve as your announcer for a moment."

His words piqued the curiosity of everyone in the audience.

Ferdinand continued speaking.

"I believe everyone should know which song is currently the hottest on the Billboard charts in the Beacon Country?"

A girl couldn't wait and shouted out.

""! A fantastic song!"

Ferdinand nodded and said.

"Avril is absolutely right!"

"Yes, it is precisely this song that has held the number one spot on the Billboard Weekly Chart in the Beacon Country for a very long time."

"But what you might not have noticed is that the author of this song is a top-tier musician from the distant East."

"I have once had the privilege of listening to his music and was deeply intoxicated by it."

"And today, a new work of his is about to be released right here!"

"Singing this song for us is none other than the Billboard champion singer... the beautiful Ms. Bai Xiao Ling!"

Whoosh... Instantly, the venue erupted in enthusiastic applause.

This song had swept through Europe and America recently, so naturally, they were all familiar with it.

Although many were classical musicians and not particularly fond of pop music, they had to admit it was a good song.

And today, a brand new song was actually being released?

Many people became excited.

The girl from just now jumped up and down, shouting even louder.

"Mr. Ferdinand, what is the name of this song?"

Ferdinand chuckled.

"It seems our Avril is already impatient."

"As an equally outstanding singer, do you want to challenge Ms. Bai Xiao Ling?"

The venue instantly burst into uproarious laughter.

Su Meng looked toward the sound and his eyes immediately lit up.

The girl who spoke was not tall, but her figure was petite and well-proportioned.

Especially her signature smoky eye makeup made Su Meng recognize her at a glance.

This was actually Avril Lavigne, one of the top singers in the European and American music scene!

In this different timeline, this woman was still incredibly talented, repeatedly sweeping the Grammys, and recognized as a superstar in the European and American music industry.

She actually came to this reception banquet today?

On the stage, Ferdinand continued speaking.

"The name of this song is—!"

Yes, this time the classic track Su Meng brought forth was one of the masterpieces from a past life!

This song was one of the strongest representative works of the legendary rock band Queen from a past life.

In a past life, during the time, Queen's live performance, with Freddie Mercury dressed in a bathhouse outfit, was a classic among classics.

Just how powerful was this song?

To put it simply, it was inducted into the Grammy Hall of Fame and ranked number 330 on Rolling Stone magazine's list of the 500 Greatest Songs of All Time.

In 1994, this song was also used as the theme song for the Beacon World Cup and was sung all over the world.

And today, this song will officially appear in this world!

In the center of the stage, a stand microphone had already been placed.

Bai Xiao Ling wore a simple, slightly androgynous black Hanfu long dress, looking heroic and spirited.

Among the colorful female stars present, she stood out as unique.

Standing in the center of the stage under the spotlight, she exuded a massive aura.

It made everyone present perk up mentally.

After a moment of silence...

"Boom! Boom! Clap! Boom! Boom! Clap!"

Powerful drum beats rang out.

Bai Xiao Ling raised both hands above her head, tapping along to the rhythm of the music.

The strong beats, combined with the synchronized clapping and stomping in the accompaniment, made everyone unable to help but feel their blood boiling.

Some people even instinctively raised their hands and tapped along with Bai Xiao Ling.

After the intro, Bai Xiao Ling's voice rang out.

..."

Not bad, truly not bad!

Su Meng nodded in approval.

This is a male vocal song; the singing difficulty isn't high, but singing it well is even harder.

In the previous life, countless people had covered it, but they fell far short of the original singer.

Let alone a female vocal cover; that difficulty was an exponential increase.

Deng Ziqi had covered it in the previous life, but the effect... better not to mention it.

The only version that could barely rival the original was an advertisement shot by Bai Shi... oh no, Pepsi.

It mobilized the three divas of the Western music scene—Britney, Ambis, and Pink.

In a massive coliseum, countless audiences screamed wildly, sending adrenaline soaring, and it became a classic advertisement.

And today, Bai Xiao Ling's performance, compared to the three divas of the previous life, was even more impressive.

Especially since she deliberately switched her vocal tone.

Using a mid-range vocal tone, it matched the song perfectly.

It displayed the song's soaring spirit and soul-shaking power to the fullest extent.

Bringing unparalleled shock to the scene!

Most importantly... damn it! In this world, this IS the original, okay?

In Su Meng's thoughts, the song had reached its climax.

Bai Xiao Ling unleashed her full aura, beating the rhythm with both hands.

The audience on site could no longer hold back; one by one, they followed her rhythm, clapping wildly and stomping their feet.

At this moment, the blood was boiling; who still cared about their identity as artists?

Even those seemingly Duanzhuang noble ladies, one by one, completely ignored their image.

One by one, they raised their hands, stomped their feet, and screamed wildly.

Su Meng was not surprised.

After all, Western women are very passionate.

Even those seemingly Duanzhuang upper-class women, at certain moments, were more provocative than anyone else.

Ahem, ahem, ahem, I don't know either; it was all said by that dead loser.

Ah-choo, ah-choo, ah-choo!

A certain dead loser typing at a computer sneezed fiercely several times.
