Chapter 297: I Am [Earth]
As the song ended, the entire venue was briefly silent, then erupted in enthusiastic applause.
Many Lyricists stood up spontaneously, clapping vigorously.
Their applause was not just for the Superstar, but even more so for Earth.
Offering my knees. jpg!
To use the words of Xue Zhiqian when evaluating this song: "The lyrics you wrote make me want to kneel before you!"
They did not know who this Earth was, but the shock they received from this song, "Drowning Sorrows," was beyond measure.
"This sense of amazement is the same as when I heard some of Luo Mo's songs!"
"But Luo Mo isn't skilled at this kind of Folk-leaning song, and I haven't seen him write a work in the same style as 'Drowning Sorrows' before."
Host Li Guang stepped onto the stage at this moment. As soon as he went up, he gave the Superstar a big Embrace and said, "This song resonated strongly with someone like me who drifts in the north. Thank you, Superstar, for bringing such an excellent work."
The Superstar lowered his head and said a bit bashfully, "It's mainly because Teacher Earth wrote it well."
Li Guang took the conversation and said with a smile, "Then we also thank the mysterious Teacher Earth."
"Now, please vote for this song 'Drowning Sorrows.' After the voting channel closes, we will move to our review segment."
"Thirty-second countdown..."
"3, 2, 1, voting channel closed!"
After speaking, he looked at the professional judging panel and the four guests for this episode, saying, "We will announce the vote count later. Does anyone have anything they would like to comment on?"
For a moment, many people on the professional judging panel shook their heads.
Finally, Lv Yi took the microphone and said, "The lyrics of this song are written very well, extremely well!"
"I am very curious about what this new creator named Earth has experienced and what they have realized to be able to write such a song."
"Analyzing it normally, it gives one the feeling that this person is quite old, but for some reason, my intuition tells me that they might just be a youth with an old soul."
Li Guang asked in confusion, "Oh? Teacher Lv Yi has such a sixth sense?"
Lv Yi smiled and said, "Because people of our age might not be as particular when writing lyrics, and even if we write down our own realizations, we use relatively simple words."
"Young people, on the other hand, have more spiritual energy in their phrasing."
"Of course, this is just my personal guess, not directed at my peers, haha!"
At this time, a Lyricist took the microphone and said, "The sense of amazement these two songs brought me is no less than that of Luo Mo, who became a hit last year."
As soon as Luo Mo was mentioned, the whole venue was filled with exclamations, and many audience members began whispering to each other.
This Lyricist continued, "But the style of these two songs is completely different from the lyrical style Luo Mo has already displayed."
"Before, I was wondering if a second Luo Mo was about to appear in the music scene?"
"Now, I believe many people are like me, their thoughts have changed."
"The music scene doesn't need a second Luo Mo, but it does need an Earth like this!"
This was equivalent to extremely high praise, showing that this Lyricist truly loved the lyrics of "Drowning Sorrows" to the extreme.
Li Junyi listened to his evaluation, the corners of his mouth under the mask twitching wildly.
"This Teacher Earth is Brother Mo himself!" he shouted wildly in his heart.
At the same time, he also felt it was very interesting.
He was looking forward immensely to the day when everyone knew that Earth was Luo Mo.
His anticipation for this day was even higher than for the moment he would reveal his own face.
"At that time, their expressions will definitely be very strange, right?" Li Junyi thought to himself.
If this group of professional judges recalled their comments along the way, they would surely be so embarrassed they'd dig a three-bedroom apartment out with their toes!
After this Lyricist finished praising Earth heavily, he finally remembered that the Superstar was standing on stage and hurriedly apologized, "Sorry, sorry. Now let us return to the main topic and talk about the Superstar's Singing."
He raised his hand, gave the Superstar a thumbs up, and said, "A voice with a great sense of story, a very warm voice. Actually, in my view, the lyrics and the singing are a relationship of mutual achievement. An average person singing this song would definitely not be able to sing out this feeling."
Once these words were spoken, many people nodded repeatedly.
As for the four celebrity guests, one female Singer even threw an olive branch to the Superstar, saying, "I really want to collaborate with the Superstar."
This variety show only started airing after two episodes were recorded, so since the program hadn't aired yet, the female Singer's invitation to collaborate at this time was quite sincere.
After the review segment ended, Li Guang started being mischievous again, saying, "So, does everyone have any new ideas? Does anyone have any new guesses?"
This was equivalent to asking everyone to guess again: who exactly is the Superstar wearing the mask?
A woman wearing black-rimmed Glasses sitting next to Lv Yi said, "I think, could our line of thinking be wrong? Is it possible that the Superstar is not a professional Singer, but a crossover star?"
"Because as far as I know, there are quite a few Actors whose singing skills are also excellent, not at all inferior to professional Singers."
Li Guang's eyes lit up, and he said, "Hey! You've provided us with a new line of thinking."
Backstage, the dog director Ke Ming's eyes also lit up: "Hey! We could actually do a 'Crossover Singer,' that seems quite interesting too!"
The professional judges began to exercise their right to ask questions, asking, "Superstar, do you have any other crossover identities?"
Li Junyi hesitated for a while, then nodded.
Don't forget, he was also a choreographer.
In the past, he had earned money from this job in earnest.
As soon as he nodded, the whole venue was in an uproar, and the professional judging panel was incredibly excited, feeling they had found the right direction!
It's just that it's even harder to guess if they are a crossover; in the vast sea of people, how can one guess!
But everyone quickly relaxed: "He is so strong, he will be gloriously revealed sooner or later, why guess!"
"Even if we guess correctly, as long as he isn't eliminated, he won't be revealed until very late anyway!"
Seeing that the time was about right, Li Guang said, "Alright then, let us announce the final vote count for the Superstar!"
"For this performance, the Superstar's final vote count is—911!"
"Congratulations to the Superstar, first place again!"
The entire venue's applause was like thunder, and the Superstar turned his head to look at the score on the big screen.
His mask was a dim, lusterless star.
But he himself was already shining brightly on this stage.
The bullet comments began to surge—"Deserved!"
………
………
The second episode of the program ended very quickly.
Xu Chujing didn't really care about who had been subject to Elimination or who had revealed their face.
She liked this song "Sorrow" very much, feeling it was the most outstanding Folk work in recent years.
As a Singer, Xu Chujing was also full of interest in this songwriter Earth who had popped up from nowhere.
But for some reason, perhaps it was a woman's sixth sense, or perhaps due to some other mysterious reason, she always felt something was not quite right.
Xu Chujing, who was curled up like a Cat on the sofa, stretched her body, and the buttons of her pajamas bore a great burden because of this movement.
She stood up, walked on the floor with her bare jade feet, poured herself a glass of hot water, and played the song "Sorrow" on her phone via the external speaker.
After hesitating for a few seconds, she chose to send a WeChat to Luo Mo, sharing the song directly.
"This song is quite good," Xu Chujing said in the WeChat.
An endless desire to share is one of the major signs of the ambiguous phase.
Liking is just liking; how can there be any playing hard to get or restraint? You wish you could tell the other person what you ate for every meal, send them a picture of a pretty cloud you saw On the Road, and tell them about the cool breeze.
People who want to be together naturally need to walk into each other's lives and have a sense of participation.
It just fits that saying: "Hearing some things, even if they are completely unrelated, will still take several turns in my heart and make me think of you."
Luo Mo replied quickly: "Mm, I like it very much too."
Xu Chujing looked at his answer and frowned: "You replied in seconds? Did you listen to it?"
She knew Luo Mo was probably still busy and definitely didn't have time to watch the show. Luo Mo definitely hadn't watched the second episode of "Masked Singer."
This made her feel like Luo Mo was brushing her off, saying he liked it without even listening to the song.
"I listened to it," Luo Mo said. "I've heard this song before."
He said it with such righteous confidence because it was the truth.
Xu Chujing was not the type of person who liked to argue endlessly over trivial matters, and she wouldn't suspect that Luo Mo was lying to her.
At least given the current state of their relationship, she basically believed everything Luo Mo said.
"Then, from the perspective of a Lyricist, tell me, what do you think of the lyrics of this song?" Xu Chujing asked again.
"They're great!" Luo Mo only replied with these three words.
If it were Shen Yinuo and the others asking him, he would definitely praise it shamelessly without end, praising it to the high heavens, and might even write a 300-word essay.
But the person was Xu Chujing, so he still wanted to save some face.
Yet when Xu Chujing saw these three words, she felt it was a bit perfunctory again.
Fortunately, she was not a person who cared much about attitude, and she thought that Luo Mo might be very busy right now; perhaps she was the one who had disturbed him first.
So, she asked one more thing: "Are you still a bit busy now? Is it convenient to chat?"
"I'm done being busy," Luo Mo replied. "Then let me ask you back, what do you think of this songwriter called 【Earth】?"
"It's alright," Xu Chujing didn't praise him much.
Because she knew very well that men always have some strange desire to win.
For example, when walking On the Road, someone might suddenly point at a leaf and say: "If you can touch it, you're amazing."
Men would start to take it seriously, then start Dancing and jumping on the spot to touch the leaf; if they couldn't reach it, they would even take a running start.
Luo Mo himself was a songwriter, so naturally, she wouldn't praise another songwriter very strongly in front of him.
Men born with a rod are all obsessed with women praising them for being great.
"Hm? Just 'alright'?" Luo Mo sent a disappointed emoji.
"I said he was 'alright', what are you disappointed about..." Xu Chujing asked.
Suddenly, her heart trembled, as if she had thought of something.
At the same time, Luo Mo sent her a WeChat.
"Actually, I am 【Earth】."
