Chapter 419 Black Tide and Golden Light

First stage.

"Now we invite the Chinese superstar, the King of Jinlin Singers - Su Zhe!"

Su Zhe stepped onto the stage skillfully and faced the Hong Kong audience with a smile:

"This is my first Cantonese song - "Glory Days", dedicated to everyone."

This is one of his favorite Cantonese songs and a masterpiece of the band Beyond. Even after many years, it can still inspire countless people.

But as soon as Su Zhe finished saying the song title and before the music prelude started, he saw the audience extinguishing the light sticks in their hands in large areas.

This plunged the auditorium into deathly darkness, and the whole place fell silent and then instantly became uproar.

Wei Zhenhui and others were very angry backstage:

"what are they doing?"

"This is too much!"

"Whose fan is this? Why do you do this?"

Someone looked at Song Wenyu, but he was very quiet, as if it had nothing to do with him.

Su Zhe on the stage was also stunned for a moment, looking thoughtfully at the dark auditorium, and suddenly stopped the musical prelude of "Glory Days".

The program team thought he was extremely angry and was going to stop recording. Just when they wanted to persuade him, they heard Su Zhe say calmly:

"I suddenly want to change a song. Keyboard teacher, please give me the piano."

He looked at the other musicians, briefly mentioned a few melodies, and asked:

"Is it okay for you to listen to my melody and improvise?"

They were all top musicians. Seeing Su Zhe being so calm, they all said OK and were curious about what song Su Zhe planned to sing to deal with the black tide.

After getting ready, Su Zhe turned to look at the audience. It was still dark, but he seemed to see those malicious eyes, expecting him to make a fool of himself or even collapse.

But amidst these malicious attacks, Su Zhe kept a calm expression, played a simple melody, and sang quietly:

【Someone asks me/I will tell/But no one comes

I'm looking forward/to the point of being helpless/have something to say/can't get it loaded]

This is "Pompous" (Cantonese), one of Dr. Chen's masterpieces, telling the story of a little guy who wants to become a star.

The struggle contained in the lyrics spread throughout the audience through Su Zhe's top-notch vocal appeal.

This was the first time for many Hong Kong audiences to hear Su Zhe sing, and they were all shocked by his voice and emotion. The originally noisy auditorium suddenly fell silent.

Su Zhe still didn't care about the audience. After the low prelude, he sang to the climax:

【You think I am exaggerating?

Exaggerating just because I’m scared]

This line made the audience's heads tingle, especially when the word "exaggerated" was sung, the tone and emotion had been rising, but suddenly it was as smooth as swallowing.

This kind of treatment immediately makes people feel the fear contained in the lyrics.

Singing is so difficult that it’s scary:

"This young man has such a beautiful high voice!"

【That Year of Eighteen/Alma Mater Dance/Standing Like a Minion

At that time, I swore in tears/You must see me]

When Su Zhe sang this, he felt empathy.

Although he didn't have a school dance, in society, people are as ordinary and humble as screws, just standing around.

[In love/at work/too much neglect

Self-esteem has suffered a lot]

Under the empathy, his voice's appeal was brought to its maximum effect, and he actually made some audience members cry.

Many fans chase stars and the dazzling person in their minds, in fact, just to satisfy the grandiose dreams in their hearts.

Amidst the low sobbing, in the dark auditorium, a few golden lights suddenly lit up.

Fierce Yang Gold, this is Su Zhe’s supporting color!

As mentioned before, due to the Internet, there is a small amount of sugar cane in the local area, but they are mixed among other fans and really dare not raise their support signs for fear of causing conflicts and easily suffering losses.

After all, the number of people is too small.

But after hearing Su Zhe's singing, they finally couldn't help it anymore, raised their golden cheering sticks, and shouted desperately:

"Su Zhe!"

"Brother! We are here!"

A few golden lights, like the blazing sun, dispersed the surrounding black tide.

When Su Zhe saw this scene, a smile finally appeared on his calm face. He pointed at them and then around, singing exactly:

【Ten times the pains/do one thing that stands out

Are normal people enough for me to be argumentative?

You call me grandiose

Don’t be afraid if you add a few boos]

He is indeed very controversial now, with both black tide and golden light.

But the golden light became more and more firm, and the black tide began to become unstable.

Su Zhe was not afraid of boos, but they could no longer shout.

Until Su Zhe sang the last few lines:

【I am not your cup of tea/you can drink it as much as you want】

This sentence probably means that even if I am not the person you like, you can still appreciate me.

After these words, the fans who resisted him suddenly disintegrated, and colorful support sticks lit up one after another.

As if the darkness was pierced by golden light, dawn finally arrived.

And those lonely sugar canes now proudly hold up the Sun Gold as if they are holding up the sun.

Su Zhe also sang to the end:

[Don’t forget that someone is speaking out for you]

Shengsha means hoarse voice, here it refers to Su Zhe singing for the audience until his voice becomes hoarse.

As for the last high note, Su Zhe, like Dr. Chen, sang it until it broke.

He used Dr. Chen's treatment method here; as for Teacher Lin, the high notes are amazing, but the same problem remains, it is too clean, not exaggerated or gravelly at all.

As for the father of the Chinese music scene...you can judge for yourself.

After Su Zhe finished singing, his expression returned to calm. He stood quietly on the stage and saw the audience cheering loudly.

The musicians on the stage looked at this scene in surprise.

They were also on the stage. Although they were not the targets, they could feel the suffocation of facing the black tide.

—— Some friends may not know how terrifying the black tide is. Many comedians have said that if the audience did not laugh when they made a joke on the stage, they would panic all of a sudden.

This is just that they did not laugh, but what about the black tide? Thousands of audiences put away the lights, stood still, did not make a sound, and stared at you intently, which is enough to make normal people collapse.

But they watched Su Zhe with their eyes, without any fluctuations, and changed a song on the spot, which convinced all the audience.

Really, a song made the fans rebel!

The musicians always stood behind Su Zhe and kept observing him. They knew best how difficult it was.

But Su Zhe had a calm expression, and his fingers did not shake from beginning to end. He was very stable.

"As expected of a mainland boss, he has a tough mentality."

The musicians sighed, and the stars backstage were also extremely shocked, and couldn't help but say:

"Is this Su Zhe's original work? Is he so good at writing Cantonese songs?"

"As expected of a music master, one song is better than any I've ever sung in my life."

At this time, Su Zhe on the stage seemed to be emitting golden light in the eyes of everyone.

But Su Zhe just stood up from the piano gracefully, with a calm expression, but naturally showing a sense of pride, as if saying:

Just this kind of small scene?

The fans in the audience were deeply attracted by his proud attitude like a peacock.

The nobleman style is the most popular idol style.

At this time, the whole audience was paying attention to Su Zhe, but no one noticed that Song Wenyu's face was as dark as the bottom of a pot.

……

The media in Hong Kong is well developed, especially the tabloid reporters.

On the first stage of "Peak Battle", the black tide and golden light faced by Su Zhe immediately made them feel like they had found a treasure, and reported it in an exaggerated tone.

This has once again sparked heated discussions, but this time, people are no longer just concerned about Su Zhe's household registration and beauty, and are also interested in his works.

[A song can drive away the black tide? Is it so exaggerated? ]

[It's a Cantonese song? How good is it? ]

They will know when "The Peak Battle" is broadcast.

Although the mediocre sound system in most people's homes will seriously weaken the appeal of Su Zhe's voice, and he does not have the ability to make fans switch sides like he does on the spot.

But it also instantly ignited the music scene and let fans know about Su Zhe.

Some people curiously went to listen to Su Zhe's Mandarin songs. Folk songs almost rely entirely on lyrics, which is indeed not convenient to spread.

But "Past CD" and "Chinese Style" are, after all, the best collections of previous lives, even if they are in Mandarin, they immediately attracted attention.

——If you look at the album sales charts in Hong Kong Island, you will find that there are many Mandarin albums that fans can understand.

This made many fans marvel:

"Is the mainland music scene so powerful now?"

"Almost every song is a masterpiece, no wonder he is called a musical genius."

"No, now he is called the music master, he founded a school, Chinese style."

Amid the amazement of the audience, the first episode of "Peak Battle" came to an end, and Su Zhe won the championship without a doubt.

Even the fans of the God of Songs had no objection.

Maybe Song fans are dissatisfied? But they are now denouncing the fans who turned on the lights at the scene, and they have no time to attack Su Zhe.

However, Su Zhe does not care about the ranking now, because under the leadership of Wei Zhenhui, the crew of "Infernal Affairs" has been formed.

Su Zhe was confused. This is not a short drama, the speed is too fast, right?

It just so happens that the crew members are all veterans, and the actors are all old actors.

After all, although Hong Kong Island is small, it has gathered a large number of film and television practitioners. Now the workload is small, and everyone will arrive at the call.

"Mr. Su, let's start the filming?" Wei Zhenhui asked.

How can Su Zhe refuse? He had no choice but to call a legal advisor and sign an investment contract.

He took 60% of the investment, and the remaining 40% was given to a local company. After all, if the filming was to be done locally, the police station had to be coordinated for help, and there were also those old actors and connections. If he did not cooperate with a local company, there would definitely be a lot of trouble.

Fortunately, there was no black society after the return of Hong Kong Island. Otherwise, if it were the golden age of the year, it would be enough for Su Zhe to deal with all the big guys. With his temper, he would probably have to fight and make a name for himself as a double-flowered red stick.

So, Su Zhe stayed in Hong Kong Island, filming "Infernal Affairs" while recording "Peak Battle".

The recording of "Infernal Affairs" was not kept secret, and it caused a sensation in the industry. After all, it was the first collaboration between Su Zhe, a screenwriter from the mainland, and major Hong Kong stars.

But among the public, the most concerned was "Peak Battle".

In the second episode, Su Zhe finally took out the Beyond band's "Glorious Years" as he wished, and won the second episode championship without any dispute.

Then there are Dr. Chen's "Under the Mount Fuji", Hacken Lee's "Red Sun", Principal Tam's "Can't Say Goodbye", Priscilla Chan's "Thousands of Songs", Beyond's band "Boundless Oceans and Skies", Jacky Cheung's "Break Up on Rainy Days", etc.

They are all classic Cantonese songs, and the quality is impeccable. The only problem is that the arrangement of some songs is a bit classical.

Su Zhe made a slight change and enriched the arrangement, and it was fine.

This made him win the championship for many episodes, while the singing god Han Jiyao had long passed the peak of his creation and could not compete with him in singing new songs.

Singing old songs can win by relying on emotions, and he snatched the championship from Su Zhe for several episodes, but he always felt that he won unfairly.

This aroused his desire to win and create. After working hard for several episodes, he really couldn't beat Su Zhe, the time traveler who cheated. He was very helpless:

"Su Zhe, are you a human? You write a new song every few days, and the quality is so high?"

Wei Zhenhui's expression was a little gloating:

"God of Songs, do you know how we felt when we saw you?"

Han Jiyao sighed and had to admit:

"I'm old... If you were born a few years earlier, the invincible years before made me lonely for so many years."

Su Zhe gave a thumbs up:

This guy pretends to be very smooth. God of Songs, did you watch "The Return of the Condor Heroes" and cosplay Dugu Qiubai?

Han Jiyao even admitted in an interview with reporters:

"I'm not Su Zhe's opponent. Young people are too fierce. They shoot movies during the day and write songs at night. They don't even need to sleep."

But he was a little unconvinced:

"I was also good when I was young."

As soon as his remarks came out, they were immediately processed by reporters as:

"God of Songs admits defeat, and the fierce dragons across the river bombard the Cantonese music scene! 》

Su Zhe became the fierce dragon that crossed the river, and the classic Cantonese songs he brought shocked countless listeners.

As for Song Wenyu, who initially targeted him and regarded him as an imaginary enemy, thinking that he came to steal fans and business, he lost without any room for struggle.

Even hardcore fans can turn against him, let alone others?

As an idol, he is not afraid of talented people. Anyway, he has no talent, and fans don’t follow him because of his talent.

But Su Zhe is not only talented, but also more handsome than him!

The mainland sugarcanes said to Song fans with pity:

[These children are too pitiful, let’s eat something good. ]

[Is my brother going to idols to help the poor? Seeing that the idols in Hong Kong are too inferior, I really can’t bear to let the fans live so hard. ]

Song fans collapsed instantly.

The moat of idols is originally low, and it is common to climb the wall, unlike talented people who have works to rely on.

So, many fans immediately jumped over the wall:

[Sorry, don’t ask me to do data in the future, I’m afraid my brother will misunderstand. ]

[I will be a sugarcane in the future. ]

[It’s better to be a sugarcane. If the idol is doing well, he can win the championship without being on the list. It’s so easy. ]

[And there is no requirement for voting, and the fan leader does not collect money. You can win even if you are a Buddhist. It’s so easy. ]

[Is it so comfortable in the mainland fan circle? ]

A sugarcane replied:

[Not necessarily. It’s easy to be a sugarcane. But being a fan of other idols, seeing the idol being beaten by the big brother every day, and having to be stubborn, is tiring. ]

This made Song Wenyu collapse:

“In the past, we lived in the same dormitory, and you made everyone unable to see me! Now that I came to Hong Kong Island, you still make everyone unable to see me. Didn’t I come here for nothing?”

Su Zhe was also very sorry, but he had never targeted Song Wenyu. However, the idol circle likes to make all kinds of comparisons, and accidentally hurt his peers.

What can he do?
