Chapter 762: 《Peerless》Cantonese Version

The Jingcheng Station of Luo Mo's solo concert series proceeded smoothly for four shows just like that.

Over these four days, it could be said that the Hot Search lists on all major platforms were dominated by him alone.

Every day, heavyweight guests arrived at the venue, bringing surprises to the 100,000 spectators on site.

However, after these few days, Luo Mo had not brought out any more new songs on stage.

This was actually quite normal; after all, for the audience, songs like "Confession Balloon" were still considered very new. One couldn't exactly call them old songs just because they had been sung once, right?

The only thing that left Luo Mo a bit puzzled these past few days was that the police had actually caught two more fugitives.

Luo Mo: "???"

Knowing there are tigers in the mountains, yet choosing to head toward the tiger mountain?

With the cautionary examples of people like "Partridge" already there, were they still desperately throwing themselves into the trap?

Or did they all believe in that saying often heard on TV: the most dangerous place is the safest place?

"It couldn't be that my charm is too great, and they couldn't resist coming to watch, could it?" Luo Mo felt he was about to become narcissistic and conceited thanks to this group of fugitives.

Besides that, during these few days, the thing Luo Mo loved doing most, or rather, the thing he most wanted to happen, was—to have Xu Chujing call him 'husband' in person.

If it were an ordinary person, holding concerts for four consecutive days, they would likely be tired as a dog by now; how could they be as full of vigor as he was?

During the concert, he supported the Heavenly Queen.

Returning to the hotel, he still supported the Heavenly Queen.

——"Supporting You".

Today was the final day of the Jingcheng Station.

In the afternoon, Luo Mo came to the Olympic Stadium for rehearsals as usual.

During this process, his phone rang.

Upon checking the caller, it was actually Qunzai—Hua Jiaqun!

"Hello, President Hua," Luo Mo said as he answered the phone.

"Are you busy?"

"I'm rehearsing, but it's almost finished. Is there some good news you want to tell me?"

"That's for sure! Here, let me congratulate you first; I heard that you've broken records again by holding a concert," Hua Jiaqun said.

"Not worth mentioning, not worth mentioning," Luo Mo chuckled, acting cool.

"I'm calling mainly to tell you that the post-production for Peerless is completely finished. If you have time, take a look and see if there are any parts in the editing that need changes," Hua Jiaqun said.

Luo Mo said: "Sure."

Honestly, editing has a huge impact on a film.

For details, one can refer to the Snyder Cut of Justice League versus the normally released Justice League.

They are completely two different films! The story they tell seems entirely different!

In Luo Mo's personal opinion, Peerless still had slight deficiencies in editing, or rather, many Hong Kong films nowadays are a bit chaotic in terms of Story Rhythm, being a bit fast and slow at times.

Of course, some of it is excusable, because the Mainland version might have cuts, leading to a poor viewing experience.

After ending the call with Hua Jiaqun, Luo Mo began to think about the release schedule for Peerless.

The post-production of The Wandering Earth had also reached its final stages.

This film was definitely going to be released during the Shuji Dang.

And it would be best to release it in July.

Because Luo Mo's films usually have a Key Extension.

If the release period is extended by one month, August is definitely better than September.

On Earth, Peerless was released during the National Day holiday.

Luo Mo felt that here on Blue Star, releasing it during the May Day holiday would also be fine.

After all, for this film, being able to fire the first shot in the Hong Kong film market is enough!

……..

……..

As the sun set, the area outside the Olympic Stadium was exceptionally lively.

Today was the final show of Luo Mo's "Love" tour at the Jingcheng Station, and the audience who could come to watch on-site were quite excited.

Some Singers hold tours quite frequently; if you can't see them in this city this year, you might still have a chance next year.

But for a busy person like Luo Mo, it was really hard to say, as he held multiple positions and had too many identities.

Besides that, the audience felt excited because today's on-site guest had already been announced: it was Jing!

She would go on stage midway through the concert and sing two songs with Luo Mo.

The reason for doing this was that there was a very special arrangement for tonight.

On Earth, due to a certain special reason, a mode had become very popular in recent years—the Online Concert.

That is, the Singer sings online, and everyone watches the Live Broadcast using their mobile phones or computers.

Like when Mayday held an Online Concert, the members walked onto the stage of an empty concert venue, and then the intro of the song and the singing began; the effect was explosive!

In the massive venue, the members walked with big strides amidst the intro music, which was incredibly evocative.

Luo Mo still remembered that the song was "Midsummer Light Year," which was also the most stunning live version he had ever seen.

Later, he had watched the Online Concerts of Sun Yanzi, Liu Dehua, and others one after another.

Here on Blue Star, no one had tried the so-called Online Concert yet.

Luo Mo wanted to be a pioneer and test the waters for everyone.

Of course, since the tickets for the venue had already been sold, many audience members had already spent the money and specifically come to the venue; announcing that everyone could watch the Live Broadcast at home would certainly be a bit unfair.

Some people might not mind, but others might find it off-putting.

Luo Mo mainly felt that the sequence was wrong; if this situation had been explained before the tickets were sold, then there would have been no problem.

Therefore, he discussed it with Penguin and changed it to an 【Encore】 segment, broadcast via Live Broadcast online.

Because this segment was originally an encore show he paid for out of his own pocket, it was not included in the total concert duration and belonged to his sincere Singing for the fans.

The reason Luo Mo intended to do this was because the previous ticket-grabbing incident had caused such a huge stir; he saw the enthusiasm of many fans, and he also saw many comments full of regret.

He had originally thought that 500,000 tickets for Beijing would be enough, as it was already double the previous record!

But who would have thought—I am just too damn popular!

I underestimated myself!

Although watching online is still vastly different from watching on-site, it is still better than nothing, isn't it?

Therefore, after this news was announced on the internet, it could be called a bombshell!

"Holy crap! There's actually an online Live Broadcast!"

"I've never heard of this kind of mode before!"

"Ox! Luo Mo is Ox!"

"I'm definitely watching tonight!"

"Translate for me, what is called a Surprise! What the hell is called a Surprise!"

Although the entire 【Encore】 segment might only be ten-plus minutes, it doesn't matter; Penguin will play some god-tier stage clips from these four days of concerts beforehand.

Everyone can watch these recorded contents first, and then when the time comes, it will seamlessly connect to the live broadcast.

In this way, the viewing mood of many audience members will be more coherent, so as to avoid starting directly with an encore show.

Today's overall concert site was as smooth as the previous few days.

It's just that some industry insiders could still hear a bit of fatigue in Luo Mo's voice.

His vocal state was definitely slightly worse than the previous few days.

But what is absurd is that his so-called "worse" is still several points better than the vast majority of powerful Singers!

Not to mention those recording studio Singers who cannot perform live.

Luo Mo knew deeply: "When the vocal state is not very good, just sing with emotion as much as possible."

Sing the feelings out.

Sometimes, some small flaws can instead become the finishing touch!

It's just that many people cannot achieve this mode.

When the concert reached the 【Song Request Segment】, Luo Mo randomly picked a lucky audience member on-site.

This was a boy, looking not very old; he should have come to the concert with his girlfriend.

After taking the microphone handed over by the staff, this boy said: "I want to request a song that you rarely sing!"

"Oh? Then which song do you want to request?" After Luo Mo finished speaking, he gave a wry smile and said: "That sounds like a song with high singing difficulty!"

Hearing this, the boy smiled embarrassedly.

"Ah? It really is!" Luo Mo looked at his expression and knew he had guessed right.

Honestly, he knew he had to sing for five days in a row, so he really hadn't added some songs that were too difficult to sing into the concert setlist.

For example, something like "Chasing Dreams Red Heart".

This boy held the microphone and said: "I want to hear you sing the one you sang at the "Creating Idols" grand finale—"Exaggerated"!"

As soon as the words fell, the whole venue instantly erupted with mountain-collapsing and sea-draining cheers and screams!

You must know, this song is a favorite in many people's hearts.

At the same time, this song also makes everyone think of that initial summer.

That…….. summer when talent defeated capital!

Hearing this, Luo Mo stood on the stage and deliberately took half a step back to create an effect, as if he had been startled.

"Whoa! "Exaggerated", huh!" Luo Mo said while retreating.

He then smiled and said: "Mentioning this song, I'll say a few more words."

"Um, by the way, let my voice rest, I'll sing it later."

The whole venue instantly erupted in laughter again.

This song is recognized as difficult to sing; everyone who tries to sing this song is tortured to the point of wanting to die.

Of course, the listeners also feel like it is demonic sounds piercing the ears.

"Actually, you don't know that this song also has a Cantonese version." Luo Mo said with a smile.

In "Creating Idols", in order to fit the context, he originally chose the Mandarin version of "Exaggerated".

Once these words were out, screams erupted on-site again!

"A new version, a brand new version we haven't heard!"

"Ahhhhh! Want to hear it! Want to hear it!"

Luo Mo held the microphone and continued: "This Cantonese version, I originally let Luozai listen to the Demo (Demo)."

"As for Cantonese, I also know a little bit."

"But overall, I personally still think it would be better for Luozai to sing it, because my Cantonese is still a bit non-standard."

"But in the end, Luozai didn't sing it."

"Let's get this straight, the following content is purely flattery."

"Luozai told me: He didn't have the confidence to sing it better than my Demo (Demo)." After Luo Mo finished speaking, he smiled on stage again.

Who would have thought that at this moment, Chen Luo actually appeared on the big screen!

He had actually come to the scene again!

It's just that this time, he was an audience member, not a guest.

Chen Luo saw his own face appear on the big screen and nodded very supportively, signaling: You are right.

After nodding, he even shouted loudly: "Give us a Cantonese version!"

In an instant, the rhythm of the scene was stirred up, and one hundred thousand people shouted in unison: "Give us one! Give us one! Give us one!"

Luo Mo stood on the stage and said blankly: "Why does it feel like military training..."

After the quip, he said loudly: "Fine, then let's have 'Exaggerated'!"

As soon as his voice fell, the intro of "Exaggerated"—with its incredibly memorable and unique musical style—rang out at the Olympic Stadium.

On stage, Luo Mo also gradually lowered his head, beginning to search for the emotions of this song.

That intro, which sounded somewhat manic, resounded throughout the venue, giving a sense of a hundred ghosts walking at night and demons dancing in a frenzy.

Immediately after, Luo Mo's low voice began to sing.

"【If someone asks me, I will speak,"

"But no one comes."

"I wait until I am helpless, having words to say,"

"But they cannot be contained.】"

In an instant, people at the scene already started to get goosebumps.

"It's different, completely different!"

"When Luo Mo sings the Cantonese version, the singing method is different from the Mandarin version!"

"Damn! This feeling, this emotion!"

"These lyrics are also very painful to read!"

Yes, the Cantonese version of "Exaggerated" and the Mandarin version are inherently two different types of content, with different artistic conceptions.

Therefore, there must be differences in the singing method as well.

This is equivalent to telling the audience that you are actually listening to a new song!

When Luo Mo sang the line "【Like suddenly singing loudly】", the appearance of the vocal runs and falsetto made everyone shudder!

"It's so evocative!"

"Damn, is the Cantonese version like this?"

"Listening while watching the lyric subtitles, the immersion is truly extremely strong!"

"I've got goosebumps all over!"

The song quickly entered the chorus section.

Various Yueqi sounds also suddenly joined in at this moment!

All of a sudden, the accompaniment became even more impassioned, appearing somewhat hysterical!

"【You take me as exaggerated, the exaggeration is only because I am very afraid,"

"If I am like wood or stone, will I get attention?"

"Actually, I am afraid of being forgotten, so I amplify my performance,"

"Very uneasy, how can I be elegant,"

"Does the world still praise silence?"

"Not explosive enough!"

"How can there be a topic to let me be an exaggerated great entertainer.】"

When the first line of the entire chorus climax was sung, paired with this accompaniment, many audience members at the scene felt their scalps tingle.

It was too shocking!

Everything about this was too shocking!

Listening to this song live is truly incredible!

The most important thing is the core within the lyrics of this song!

When Luo Mo sang to the B-section of the song, many things were revealed even more clearly.

"【That year at eighteen, at the school dance, standing like a lackey.】"

"【...】"

"【In love and at work, I have been ignored too much, my self-esteem has already suffered falls.】"

It is very clear that this is a song about a small person.

When he sang the line "【Attention can cure hunger】", which again contained vocal runs and falsetto, the theme was actually elevated at this moment, and the core became even more prominent.

These lyrics are written too powerfully!

By the time the B-section of the song was finished, for the final part, the chorus climax had actually changed its lyrics.

"Sure enough, Luo Mo as a Lyricist is always this extravagant."

Even though these lyrics were already good enough, and people wouldn't feel tired even if you repeated the chorus a few more times, he often makes changes, and even progresses them further!

"Exaggerated" is that very typical kind of progressive theme!

From the initial "【You take me as exaggerated】", it changed to "【You call me exaggerated】"!

He was seen holding the microphone, looking up.

His voice was no longer in its best state, so he was singing with extreme hysteria at this moment.

On the big screen, everyone could even see his veins!

"【You take me as exaggerated, I am not afraid of a few boos,"

"I am here, if there is a dull moment, will you watch my performance?"

"Is it hysterical enough? Let's water the flowers with tears,"

"I only want you to be surprised,】"

Did I not seem to exist in the past? Increasing the stakes,

even the veins appear; tell me, do I exist now?】"

A portion of the lyrics and his state of singing on stage were truly too perfectly matched.

Chen Luo sat off-stage, feeling a surge of emotion.

He did not know why Luo Mo, who had exploded in popularity the moment he appeared before the Masses, could sing a song about a nobody so vividly.

The reason is very simple.

Because you can only see a part of my experiences.

It is just like when he participated in "Masked Singer," he did indeed put on a mask.

Yet this so-called mask was actually the face he had on Earth.

He still had another experience, an... unknown experience.

It was precisely because of this that he chose to wear that mask back then and sang "Fake Monk," singing that line: 【I want people to see me, but not know who I am】.

So Chen Luo could not understand, and the vast majority of people could not understand.

Of course, for most people, as long as the song sounds good, that is enough.

Who would care why this Singer is able to sing with such emotion?

At this very moment, it is well known that the most difficult, most frantic, and most soul-injecting part of "Exaggerated" is in the closing stage.

"【Stare at me, stop just looking at the ceiling,

I may not be your cup of tea, but you can still drink your fill,

Don't forget there is someone going hoarse for you.】"

When singing the two characters 【hoarse】, Luo Mo's voice even had a bit of raspiness, a feeling of being unable to bear the burden.

Singing frantically for five consecutive days is indeed too much to handle.

The entire voice was on the dangerous edge of seeming to crack, yet also seeming not to crack.

Yet it was precisely this that made countless audience members feel their scalps tingle once again.

And following closely behind was that sound that injected the soul into the entire song... a "【Ah——】" lasting for several seconds.

In an instant, the atmosphere at the scene reached its peak!

The high note seemed to ring through the night sky of the entire Beijing!

The shock brought to everyone this time faintly exceeded even that of the "Creating Idols" grand finale!

This kind of hoarse, frantic feeling was like a trembling of the soul.

A soul that you cannot see and do not know.

Yes, you know it is Luo Mo who is Singing.

But you also do not know... it is Luo Mo who is Singing!

(PS: Asking for monthly tickets at the end of the month!)
