Chapter 466: To Fight or Not to Fight? Let's Fight!

The performance of "Lone Warrior" ended just like that.

Backstage, General Director Feng Ji let out a long sigh of relief.

This stage was the most nerve-wracking singing performance for him.

The Blue Star Spring Festival Gala is just like the one on Earth; sometimes they invite relatively special people to the scene, such as the Ten Most Touching Figures of Huaxia and the like.

Or people who have made outstanding contributions.

Therefore, a stage like this, which depicts anti-drug police, is not strange at all.

Many comedy sketches and the like also lean toward praising special professions.

The most important thing, after all, is the final effect presented!

Feng Ji did not want to look at the real-time viewership ratings for the moment, but instead had the cameras sweep across the audience in the venue.

Sure enough, many people were applauding enthusiastically, their emotions stirred, yet their eyes were red-rimmed.

There were even some special people who were streaming with tears!

The old man beside He Ping'an raised his hand to gently rub his eyes.

Then, he glanced at He Ping'an.

"Little He, this young man is named... Luo Mo, right?" he said, "If I remember correctly."

"Yes, his name is Luo Mo," He Ping'an replied immediately.

"Quite good," the old man said.

He did not say much more, but He Ping'an could understand his meaning.

For old men like them, the lyrics they liked most in the entire song were perhaps that part:

"【Love You comes from the wilderness,

Never borrowing anyone's light in this life,

You will build your own city-state,

Above the ruins!】"

First the inspirational song "Invisible Wings," followed immediately by "Lone Warrior"—in He Ping'an's view, this young man, Luo Mo, had truly stolen the spotlight and made a huge impression at the Spring Festival Gala, the most grand of all galas.

The hidden, invisible benefits buried within this were truly far too many!

If these two songs were also loved by the common people, achieved the necessary social influence, and had a positive, forward-pushing effect... then that would be even better!

The path this young star was walking was already completely different from other mainstream stars.

"As long as he doesn't make any mistakes and keeps his original intention, then..." He Ping'an smiled and did not continue to think deeply.

……

"Lone Warrior" ended, but the major video platforms were in an uproar.

The "Like" data for this song, bolstered by the moving images on the big screen, had already surpassed "Invisible Wings."

Even so, many people were greatly annoyed in the bullet comments.

"Ah! I was so engrossed in listening that I forgot to click 'Like'!"

"Speechless, I was just busy wiping away tears, where would I have a hand free!"

"Ahhh! Can't I add it later? I love it so much!"

"Luo Mo, you're throwing stones into my eyes again! I don't like it at all!"

There are always some people who carry the burden forward for the sake of Ten Thousand Lights.

The reason you cannot see some darkness is because they have blocked the darkness in places you cannot see.

As everyone has learned more and more about these special professions over the years, how could they possibly withstand the lethality of Luo Mo's song combined with the video!

When you listen to this song and watch these images, you might stir up memories in your mind, thinking of one news story after another you've seen before, thinking of one name after another that has either come to light or is yet to be revealed!

The volume of discussion for "Lone Warrior" across the entire internet began to skyrocket at a terrifying speed!

Fifteen minutes after the stage ended, it Air Dropped to the number one spot on the Weibo Hot Search list!

Since it is the Spring Festival Gala, the officials of many social platforms specifically reserve some Hot Search slots for the gala.

You don't have to spend money to buy them; as long as the popularity is high enough, these social platforms will honestly and diligently promote it for you.

This is their duty tonight.

And "Lone Warrior" and "Invisible Wings" were too well-loved by the audience.

As of now, these are the two stages that have left the deepest impression on the audience!

In reality, this great wind has actually only just begun.

………

………

After finishing the performance, Luo Mo, who let out a long sigh of relief, arrived at the Spring Festival Gala backstage.

As soon as he walked out of the stage passage, his whole body relaxed a bit.

As mentioned before, he seemed to be a person born for the stage; he basically wouldn't be too nervous when going on stage, and instead would sometimes even be very excited.

But "Lone Warrior" was a song of no small difficulty, and wanting to sing the emotions within it was not a simple matter.

Hitting high notes is not difficult.

There are plenty of male Singers in the industry who can hit high notes; just within Xinyu alone, one could pull out a large group of high-note monsters.

Emotion is the greatest difficulty.

After arriving at the Spring Festival Gala backstage, there were still some relatively idle staff members who spontaneously applauded for Luo Mo.

Several people's eyes were red, and a few were even streaming with tears, clutching tissues in their palms.

Luo Mo looked at everyone and nodded in thanks repeatedly.

And Xu Chujing, who had already finished her performance, had long been waiting for him backstage.

After the two of them went to greet some acquaintances, they would have to take a car home separately.

After all, tonight is New Year's Eve, and as long as time permits, one must certainly go home to reunite with family.

They are still in a dating relationship and do not yet count as one family, so they can only make arrangements this way.

Before leaving, Luo Mo ran into that assistant of Feng Ji again.

This assistant told him that the viewership ratings for "Lone Warrior" are currently ranked first for this year's Spring Festival Gala!

Regarding this, Luo Mo was actually quite indifferent.

He is no longer very focused on this; if he can get good data, that is naturally best, but if he doesn't take first place, his mindset won't have any problems either.

As for this song, he is certainly very confident.

After getting into the nanny van, they first sent Luo Mo home. As soon as she got in the car, Xu Chujing said to him, "Congratulations."

As for her own viewership results being a bit lower than Luo Mo's, she was naturally indifferent.

Luo Mo just smiled and said, "It's nothing. Just watch, for the song 'Lone Warrior', the Spring Festival Gala... is just the beginning."

Everything was as Luo Mo expected; ordinary audiences had one set of feelings after listening to "Lone Warrior," while some people, after listening to "Lone Warrior," would have impulses arise in their hearts!

Among them are some video bloggers, UP hosts from Little Rotten Station, some singers, some cover internet celebrities...

This song is truly too catchy, and the emotional incitement is too strong, making it impossible for people to suppress the thoughts in their hearts.

—"I want to make something with this song!"

In this, it is thanks to some of the "negative space" Luo Mo left.

When he was talking to General Director Feng Ji earlier, he expressed that he wanted to start from the perspective of anti-narcotics police.

Feng Ji told him that this song could actually be sung for many special people, not just police.

You can also sing about the coolest 【Reverse Traveler】 firefighters.

Everyone is fleeing in panic, only he heads toward the firelight; is that not a lone warrior?

Isn't it also very fitting to sing about undercover personnel hidden in the shadows?

Can disaster relief workers work?

Can angels in white work?

And there are so, so many more.

But Luo Mo said he wanted to leave more space for everyone to let them give full play to their creativity.

Upon hearing this, two words popped into Feng Ji's mind: "Smart!"

In this way, by utilizing the power of the masses, perhaps some excellent works might be produced.

For example, is it very difficult to use this song to edit a video?

The difficulty is too low.

There are too many suitable things that can be edited in.

There are too many people, too many stories.

A large amount of derivative content will be produced because of this.

And these derivative creations will feed heat back to this song and to this stage.

Many times, you don't necessarily have to finish all the work yourself.

You must know that on Earth, when this "Lone Warrior" was first released, it was as the Chinese theme song for "League of Legends: Arcane."

Many videos and content that everyone sees online are things that came later.

Even on Earth, some people have put "Lone Warrior" and "Monkey King: Hero is Back" together!

At this very moment, the famous Little Rotten Station UP host 【Bo Ge】 was already itching to act.

He had already received many private messages shouting: "Gou Ge, aren't you going to make a move on 'Lone Warrior' yet?"

Well, many people might have forgotten that the reason he is named Bo Ge but called Gou Ge is because he previously spouted nonsense on the internet, saying that if Luo Mo could be this cruel, I would be a dog if I watched his dramas again.

—"Woof woof woof!"

In an instant, Bo Ge decided on his creative subject; he was going to make a video pairing firefighters with "Lone Warrior"!

But before that, he sent a private message to Luo Mo via Weibo to express this idea of his.

Well, he and Luo Mo follow each other.

This person's commentary videos for the "Sword Fairy" series were too good and too popular, and then the "becoming a dog" incident even hit the Hot Search, so Luo Mo just smiled and gave him a follow.

Who would have thought he would actually receive a reply from Luo Mo!

At this moment, Luo Mo and Xu Chujing were leaning against each other, each holding a phone, scrolling through the trends on Weibo to check the influence of the two stages.

After seeing the private message from Bo Ge, he replied: "Sure, firefighters are a very good creative subject."

Upon seeing the reply, Bo Ge was so excited he almost jumped up, then started howling.

He immediately said: "Is there anything I need to pay special attention to?"

He was worried that his creation might make some mistake and displease Luo Mo.

"No, just go ahead and do it with confidence," Luo Mo replied.

After thinking for a moment, Luo Mo pondered in his heart: "Firefighters..."

He couldn't help but think of a movie—"Raging Fire Hero."

A movie adapted from true stories, which then "weakened" the real situation because the creators were afraid the audience would find it too outrageous, too unbelievable, and think it was filmed blindly.

In this movie, there is a line of dialogue that left a very, very deep impression on Luo Mo.

"I'll write a piece of copy for this video of yours," Luo Mo said.

Bo Ge was so excited he was about to faint.

With this bit of copy, rounding it up, it's equivalent to me collaborating with Luo Mo to make a video together!

And the sentence Luo Mo sent next made Bo Ge freeze for a moment, and then, in an instant, his creative direction became clear, and he knew what this video should be centered around.

At the same time, he recalled a few lines of self-questioning and self-answering lyrics from "Lone Warrior".

"Go? Go!"

"Fight? Fight!"

What Luo Mo sent was:

"【Between the fire and the common people, there is only us; even if we can't hold on, we must hold on.】"
