Chapter 483
Countless hands grabbed him, preventing him from getting out.
But very quickly.
With a long sigh from "He Who Touches My Computer Dies," he slowly broke free from that emotion.
He opened his eyes, looking at the bright stage and the huge electronic screen opposite him.
In the eyes of "He Who Touches My Computer Dies," there seemed to be shimmering waves leaping, but with his breath, that feeling vanished in the next instant.
On the electronic screen.
The entire screen was filled with bullet comments.
Most were about how this song made them think of themselves, reflecting on life's realizations, how they viewed love, and what had happened.
A minority offered rational analysis; for the song "Mercury Record," countless people looked at its lyrics and then at the song title, feeling something indescribable.
They didn't quite understand why this song was called "Mercury Record," but they felt the song was extremely, extremely moving, and that lingering melody seemed to sing straight into their hearts.
Unable to pull themselves away, unable to break free.
That feeling of being pulled, body and soul hovering between closeness and distance.
Many were deeply pondering this song.
Wanting to know why it was called "Mercury Record."
Brother Shiguang offered no explanation.
So people could only guess.
So.
On that electronic screen.
The bullet comments came in twos and threes, saying different things, but the target was always just one: "Mercury Record."
【The astronomical explanation: escape velocity represents the speed at which an object escapes a planet's gravity, while Mercury's speed is 4.435 km/s. In my view, this is not an escape, but a range of attraction; you shine brightly, drawing my trajectory.】
【You are my sun, but the distance between us spans trillions of years of light.】
【He Who Touches My Computer Dies, you sang so beautifully!】
【So cool, so awesome! I was completely immersed in his singing just now! Being this handsome is bad enough, but he sings so well too.】
【I am willing to be your Mercury, but where is my sun?】
【Can anyone tell me why this song is called "Mercury Record"? I don't understand it at all!】
【Not understanding is correct; you are too young. Come back in a few years.】
【I hope no one understands "Mercury Record" (already darkened).】
【The distance between us fluctuates, yet I am like Mercury, constantly attracted by you, unable to get close, but I can clearly feel that faint yet tightly connected bond between us; perhaps we are destined never to be together.】
【You will never be my sun, and I will never be your Mercury; the distance between us should remain exactly as it is, no longer affecting each other. Forget me.】
【He Who Touches My Computer Dies, I am your fan! I watch you livestream fixing computers every day; I never expected you could sing too!】
【Unexpectedly, breaking your computer back then actually triggered a butterfly effect, introducing a naturally gifted singer to the music world! Getting beaten up for breaking the computer was worth it! So worth it!】
【This song made him express a completely new feeling, different from Brother Shiguang's style, each with its own merits; moreover, the level at which He Who Touches My Computer Dies performed Brother Shiguang's "Mercury Record" is enough to rival top-tier singers! Too powerful!】
【Go for it! He Who Touches My Computer Dies, I think you are the champion right now! You are the one about to win the championship!】
【Go! Go! So beautiful! He Who Touches My Computer Dies, go for it!】
Looking at the screen full of bullet comments.
He Who Touches My Computer Dies, expressionless, bowed to the camera.
Then he turned to walk off the stage.
But he was stopped by Wang Laoshi, who hurriedly climbed onto the stage.
Ye Zi quickly raised the microphone and smoothly said, "He Who Touches My Computer Dies, we still have an interview segment. I know you really want to watch the replay, but please wait a moment."
Wang Laoshi immediately added, "Yes, He Who Touches My Computer Dies, I just have two questions for you; we can leave the stage after, okay?"
He Who Touches My Computer Dies remained silent and nodded.
Looking at this young man, Ye Zi and Wang Laoshi both breathed a sigh of relief.
If one were to pick the most unique singer among the twelve contestants this time, without a doubt, everyone would cast their vote for He Who Touches My Computer Dies.
Because he was simply too science-oriented.
As a naturally science-minded man.
He Who Touches My Computer Dies loved computers since childhood, becoming so obsessed that he basically didn't speak to anyone else.
Except for relatives, online friends, and classmates in real life.
He basically didn't speak to anyone else.
This resulted in his current situation of having some social anxiety.
So he rarely spoke and never actively approached others.
Even backstage, when many people tried to strike up a conversation with him, he only responded with "mm-hmm, ah-ah" to get them off his back.
But there was one exception.
That was when singing.
He would be exceptionally emotional.
Just as hearing loss makes the sense of smell more acute.
He Who Touches My Computer Dies had exceptional talent in singing.
Whether it was his pure voice, untouched by external influences, or his purity regarding music.
These are things current singers cannot possess.
These are things only this introverted, science-minded man, who is bad with words, can possess.
Perhaps this is also a kind of talent.
Soon.
Wang Laoshi glanced at the card in his hand, then asked, "So let us first thank 'Don't Touch My Computer or Die' for the wonderful performance, and then I have a question I'd like to ask 'Don't Touch My Computer or Die': Why did you choose the song 'Mercury Records'?"
Hearing this question.
'Don't Touch My Computer or Die' fell silent for a long time first, then picked up the microphone, and after a while finally opened his mouth, stammering out a few words: "Because... I... like it."
Like it?
That was indeed a rather serious answer.
But coming from his mouth, it sounded a bit strange.
Ye Zi, seeing the scene gradually cooling down, immediately set about livening up the atmosphere.
"Yes, I am a singer myself, and hearing 'Don't Touch My Computer or Die's' answer, I feel the same way; it is a unique emotion one holds for a certain song, an urge to sing it out involuntarily," Ye Zi said with a smile, very moving.
"Just like everyone here, upon hearing a very good song, wanting to learn it, and then sing it out in your own way."
"It is a kind of passion."
331. The question many people care about
"If a singer does not love a song, they cannot sing out the emotion to move all the audience!"
Ye Zi's voice spread to every corner.
All the contestants sitting beside the stage.
Nodded in agreement.
Just as Ye Zi said.
If one cannot resonate with a song, no matter how one sings, it will not be sung well.
Therefore.
Passion is the best teacher.
And the song 'Mercury Records' is the one that truly moved 'Don't Touch My Computer or Die'.
Everyone present.
Even if they had studied for a long time and practiced for many days, they probably would not be able to sing out the feeling that 'Don't Touch My Computer or Die' had.
Moreover.
Regarding Ye Zi's words.
The audience also expressed agreement.
This song was sung with the most feeling by 'Don't Touch My Computer or Die'.
Wang Laoshi immediately chimed in: "Because of passion, there is choice; relying on liking, there is feeling. 'Don't Touch My Computer or Die' seems to understand 'Mercury Records' quite deeply now; probably no one present can compare to him, except Brother Shiguang."
Ye Zi also raised the microphone and continued, "I hope 'Don't Touch My Computer or Die's' 'Mercury Records' will bring more feelings to you all watching the live stream!"
