Chapter 763: I Want to Climb Up Step by Step
A Cantonese version of "Exaggerated" can be said to have completely fired up the atmosphere at the venue.
Everyone had assumed this song wouldn't differ much from the Mandarin version, but unexpectedly, both the musical style and the singing technique were completely different!
This was quite a surprise; rounding it up, it was like listening to a new song!
Honestly, this song is quite sinister.
The sound of the intro alone is very sinister!
And the singing style of the entire song is far more manic than the Mandarin version!
Luo Mo personally prefers the Cantonese version a bit more.
But to each their own, as they say.
Chen Luo sat in the audience; it was also his first time hearing Luo Mo perform "Exaggerated" live.
The Demo he had heard previously was sung quite casually by Luo Mo.
The concert version was undoubtedly much stronger and far more shocking than the Demo he had heard before!
Most importantly, there were no backup dancers on stage, no coquetry, just Luo Mo alone, singing loudly under the half-lit, half-shadowed lights.
Based on the unique nature of the song "Exaggerated," the visual and spiritual impact this brought was extremely powerful!
"It really is sung in a way that leaves one speechless," Chen Luo said in his heart.
"Whether it's the emotion or the technique, it can be said to be approaching perfection."
"Even that final 'voice crack,' that feeling of a slight break in the voice, seems so ingenious, leaving one wondering if it was a real voice crack or intentionally designed."
"But I suspect it was a matter of the state of his throat; unintentionally, the flaw instead achieved a classic," Chen Luo thought.
It could be considered a case of planting a willow by accident and having it grow into shade.
Yes, in his view, even if an official recorded version of this "Exaggerated" were released, a huge number of people would likely keep listening to this live version from the concert, perhaps even preferring this version!
That boy who requested the song never imagined that after requesting such a high-difficulty track, he would receive a version even more shocking than the one from "Creating Idols"!
After the 【Song Request Segment】 ended, Luo Mo went backstage to rest for a moment.
A Newcomer Singer from New Yu would go on stage to sing two songs.
This was an original Singer; Luo Mo felt he really had some talent and wrote very good songs, so he didn't write a song for him, letting him perform freely instead.
Blue Star also has talent, and Luo Mo would try to cultivate some.
When the concert reached two-thirds of the way through, Xu Chujing appeared brilliantly on stage.
As soon as she appeared, the screams from the entire venue were even louder than when Luo Mo had entered, and the audience went crazy.
"Jing! Ah! Jing!"
"Xu Chujing! Xu Chujing!"
On the big screen, a close-up of Xu Chujing's hand was shown.
—She was wearing Luo Mo's engagement ring.
Once this close-up appeared on the big screen, the one hundred thousand audience members became even more hyped!
People are always so magical.
Some trivial matters in one's own romance might be insignificant, but watching others do it, one gets hooked and finds it too sweet!
Luo Mo said with a smile: "Today is the last show of the Beijing stop. 'Lovers Under Heaven' will definitely be sung as usual. Besides that, let's have one more duet that hasn't been sung in a long time."
"'Daughter Kingdom,' dedicated to everyone!"
This was the first duet he and Xu Chujing recorded during the "Creating Idols" period.
Regrettably, one of the creators of this song, Zhao Yingjun, passed away at a young age.
This song, along with "Daughter's Love" and the poetry of Cangyang Jiacuo, had caused quite a sensation on Blue Star back then.
Therefore, as the singing spread, the atmosphere at the venue was also excellent.
Overall, the male and female vocal styles in this song are both very unique.
The male voice is like chanting, while the female voice is ethereal and agile, full of emotion, giving one a contradictory feeling of being both pitifully delicate and passionately intense.
And the sense of regret in this song, combined with the later "Lovers Under Heaven," happens to achieve a different effect.
When both songs were finished, Luo Mo personally escorted Xu Chujing off the stage, and he walked her for a full half-minute.
What's absurd is that during that half-minute, there was no awkward silence.
Everyone watched him trot to escort her and even help flip Xu Chujing's skirt to avoid it getting caught; the venue could be said to have been screaming the whole time.
These days, many people in the entertainment industry have discovered that manufacturing a CP is profitable!
Therefore, more and more people have started to hype CPs.
But in reality, the eyes of the masses are sharp.
Everyone can see clearly what is truly sweet and what is artificial sweetener.
Next, Luo Mo continued to sing on stage as usual, but the audience at the venue also noticed that some equipment in front of the stage seemed to be undergoing adjustments.
"The concert is almost over; there's still a Live Broadcast later!"
"Others have to watch at home, but we're watching on-site; it's quite cool."
"Let them be envious! Envious to death!"
Yes, many audience members didn't mind at all that there would be an Online Concert broadcast to the whole internet at the end.
Many instead felt that the more this happened, the more valuable their tickets seemed.
In fact, the Live Broadcast channel on Penguin's side had opened an hour ago.
One could click directly into the Live Broadcast interface on Penguin Video and Penguin Music.
It was just that they were currently playing god-tier stages from the previous few days of the concert and hadn't switched to the live venue yet.
The bullet comments were exceptionally lively.
"Some stages really don't get old no matter how many times you watch them!"
"Every one of the new songs sounds great!"
"Will there be new songs today?"
"Luo Mo! Luo Mo! Luo Mo!"
After the concert in Beijing drew to a close, Luo Mo bowed to the entire arena and left the stage.
He went backstage to change his outfit and then made the final preparations for the live broadcast.
Although the audience at the venue knew for certain he would return for an encore, countless people still shouted: "Luo Mo! Overtime!"
"Luo Mo! Overtime!"
"Luo Mo! Overtime!"
It just so happened that at this moment, the Penguin side coordinated with the on-site staff to cut the live broadcast feed to the Olympic Stadium.
In other words, the countless viewers watching the live broadcast, at this very moment, upon entering the stream, heard a sound like a mountain collapsing and the sea roaring!
Many people got goosebumps in an instant.
At this moment, the screen showed a high-altitude long shot.
One hundred thousand red glow sticks were waving.
One hundred thousand people were Shouting in unison.
This scene was truly spectacular, truly moving!
So much so that a large number of netizens also left comments in the barrage, and the overwhelming flood was all—"Luo Mo! Overtime!"
And Penguin's Vice President Cheng Wen had been closely monitoring the total number of viewers in the live broadcast.
Previously, before the live broadcast had even started, while it was still playing clips from past concerts, the total number of viewers had already reached a staggering figure.
But who would have thought it could still skyrocket now!
"It hasn't even been half a minute, and it's already up by 8 million people?" Cheng Wen was shocked.
When others do live broadcasts, the company has to help inflate the data.
When Luo Mo does a live broadcast, he doesn't pad the data at all, yet he still has to worry if this real data is a bit too exaggerated, if people will doubt it, if people won't believe it.
Time pushed forward a few minutes, and the stage passage finally opened.
Luo Mo strode out from the stage passage and said with a smile: "The online live broadcast should be on now, so, let's greet everyone as usual!"
"How are you doing, friends online?"
Even though he was asking those online, many people at the venue were cheering and screaming.
As for the barrage in the live broadcast, it was going crazy at this moment.
"Damn, he's so handsome!"
"He just proposed, so why does he already have this 'husband vibe' about him? It's so mesmerizing."
"Someone else's husband is just more appealing."
"Men love wives, women love husbands, is there a problem with that?"
After Luo Mo walked to the center of the stage, he held the microphone and said with a smile: "Honestly, every time I see so many people at the venue, and the viewing data online, I also get a sense of trance, a sense of unreality."
"Honestly, maybe if I keep Singing like this, I might accidentally become the youth of many people," he said with a smile.
As soon as he finished speaking, many people at the venue began to shout loudly.
"Keep Singing!"
"Keep Singing forever!"
In the barrage, it also began to scroll frantically.
Luo Mo continued to speak with a smile, which could be considered paving the way for the special new song to follow.
"Thank you, everyone."
"Honestly, before I debuted, many people used their words, or their actions, to tell me that just burying my head and working hard on music is not enough, that there is no way out, and that the path can even be blocked."
These words naturally made many people think of that man—the "man with a discerning eye," Wang Shisong.
But in reality, was it just him?
Long before Wang Shisong appeared, Luo Mo had already experienced joint "Anti-Explosion" efforts from multiple entertainment companies.
Seeing that Luo Mo, this Individual Trainee, was about to become popular on the show, those big companies that sent trainees to participate in the show went all out to suppress him in every way.
It's just a pity that no matter what, they couldn't suppress him.
The reason why he gives people the feeling that his journey has been smooth is simply because he—has never lost!
But in reality, he has already encountered all kinds of people and all kinds of messy things.
On stage, Luo Mo suddenly smiled and then said: "However, look at this 100,000-seat Olympic Stadium, packed to capacity."
"The number of people watching the live broadcast online also seems to have reached a terrifying figure."
"You have actually helped me prove something from the side."
"Do I really have no way out?"
In an instant, the screaming of the entire crowd reached its peak.
Luo Mo held the microphone and said: "The new song, 'Snail', is dedicated to every friend who is currently looking for a way out."
This song is one of the representative inspirational songs on Earth.
The songwriter and composer is Zhou Jielun, but he is not the original singer; he wrote it for someone else.
When he was still relatively green, he sang this song at a concert.
Before Singing, he even said: "Next, I'm bringing a song, uh, not my own song, but uh, I think, uh... a quite meaningful song. It was previously the theme song for World Vision, and it's called... Snail, and I hope everyone will like it, thank you!"
Thinking about it, if it were now, before Singing this song, he wouldn't have such a green statement; perhaps he would say:
"Next, I'm bringing a song I wrote many years ago. Although I didn't sing it myself, it still feels pretty dope. 'Snail' is for everyone, thank you!"
On stage, Luo Mo began to sing.
"Should I put down this heavy shell,
To find where the blue sky truly lies,
Drifting gently along with the light breeze,
The wounds I've endured no longer feel painful.
I want to climb upward step by step,
Riding a leaf at the highest point to fly forward,
The tears and sweat shed under this tiny sky,
One day, I will have a sky that belongs to me."
Once the first section of the song was finished, many were already captivated by the core of this new song.
The timing of Luo Mo Singing this song was also perfect.
He is currently standing at the very peak of the music scene.
He climbed upward step by step, climbing to the highest point of the music scene!
A concert for one hundred thousand people, with not a single empty seat.
Five consecutive shows, breaking the domestic record!
At the very end of the song, Luo Mo suddenly turned his back to the audience, and a camera shifted its angle to circle around behind him to film him.
"Let the wind dry the tears and sweat I've shed,
One day, I will have my own—"
Luo Mo's pitch suddenly soared, his high note ringing throughout the venue: "Belonging to—my sky!"
On the big screen, the footage suddenly cut wide, and everyone understood at this moment why he had turned his back to the audience.
Luo Mo was seen spreading his arms wide, and what the camera captured was the one hundred thousand audience members behind him, the light gathered from one hundred thousand red glow sticks, and the brilliant night sky above the semi-open stadium!
(PS: The last day of the month, asking for monthly tickets.
Then I posted an easter egg chapter, I don't know if it will pass the review...)
