Chapter 17 Xu An's Performance
Chapter 17 Xu An's Performance
Amidst the intense anticipation of the crowd, Xu An stepped onto the stage.
[Wow, why is An Gou bringing a guitar? Could it be that he's really hiding something?]
Wait, why does that guitar look familiar? It looks like the one Wanwan just picked up!
[Holy crap, it really is! Could it be that Xu An secretly borrowed Wanwan's guitar under the guise of performing and then belted it out in a super high-pitched way?]
【What are you talking about?】
【You really know how to eat! How come I didn't think of that!】
[There are no humans left... Shouldn't you be focusing on why Xu An can play the guitar?]
On stage, Xu An looked at the audience below, feeling not particularly flustered, but rather somewhat eager to try.
It seems he might actually have some talent for performing?
The thought had just flashed through Xu An's mind when he thought of the song he was about to sing, and he hesitated again.
Is this really the song I'm going to sing for my first performance?
He hesitated for a moment, thinking of the tempting rewards in the system store.
Xu An finally made up his mind and decided to ignore it.
For the sake of strengthening kidney function, and for the sake of being positive and motivated every day!
Xu An's fingers gently plucked the strings, and a cheerful prelude began.
Hearing the cheerful prelude, Jiang Zhaoyue, sitting in the audience, had a hint of surprise flash in her beautiful eyes.
Although she is an idol, she has also taken musical instrument lessons. Xu An's smooth intro is definitely not the level of someone who has only been playing guitar for a few months and knows some universal chords.
He must have practiced for at least seven or eight years.
Not only Jiang Zhaoyue reacted this way, but Shen Wanwan, who was standing to the side, also showed a look of surprise in her eyes.
She had thought Xu An simply knew how to play the guitar, but she was surprised to find that Xu An played it so well. Although there was still a long way to go before her, it was already quite good.
If you play the guitar so well, how about singing?
Shen Wanwan looked expectant, and then she heard Xu Andi sing the lyrics into the microphone.
I took pictures when the house was on fire.
人生乱套我睡觉
Unaware of impending doom
I'll just hang myself.
Postpone today's tasks if possible.
Let's talk about tomorrow tomorrow.
I'm happy living like this.
Don't take anything to heart.
Don't get frustrated by pressure and setbacks.
If I can't get through, I'll take a detour.
You can take my insults as a joke.
If you hit me, you'll have to pay up.
Say what you want to say.
Do what you want to do if you can.
I'm happy living like this.
Nothing can defeat me
……
Below the stage, Bai Ge, Zhang Lin, and others had strange expressions ever since Xu An uttered the first line of lyrics, and their expressions became even stranger as the subsequent lyrics were played.
"Have you guys heard this song? The lyrics are quite interesting."
Bai Ge asked hesitantly.
Most people shook their heads. Shen Wanwan hesitated for a moment before saying uncertainly:
"This song seems to be an original composition?"
Upon hearing this, those present thought of the lyrics from earlier, and then considered Xu An's actions that day, and surprisingly began to believe Shen Wanwan's deduction.
"Haha, Xiao Xu really does seem like someone who could create this song."
Hearing this, Bai Ge nodded unconsciously. Seeing the thoughtful expression on Jiang Zhaoyue's face, he asked curiously:
"Zhaoyue, what are you thinking about?"
"I think Xu An's lyrics are wrong!"
"what?"
A hint of confusion flashed across Bai Ge's usually calm and elegant expression.
Do you need to think about this?
"If the house is on fire, you should run! What if you get burned while taking pictures?"
Jiang Zhaoyue said earnestly.
Bai Ge: ……
Zhang Lin: ...
Shen Wanwan: ……
Chen Zize, on the other hand, seemed not to have heard Jiang Zhaoyue's earth-shattering statement, and his face showed a somewhat dazed expression.
Seeing that Chen Zize seemed a little dazed, Zhang Lin asked curiously, "Xiao Chen, what's wrong? Are you feeling unwell?"
Zhang Lin's words brought Chen Zize back to his senses. He hesitated for a moment, wondering whether to speak, but then, remembering that the cameras were all pointed at Xu An on stage, he finally said:
"How dare Xu An sing such an inappropriate song on stage? Isn't he afraid of being criticized?"
Upon hearing this, Zhang Lin was taken aback, and looked at Chen Zize with a strange expression.
He thought Chen Zize was just gloating, but he didn't expect him to be worried about Xu An.
He looked pleased; the two young people on the show were quite good.
He calmly explained, "Don't worry, Xu An isn't a real celebrity, the audience won't be that harsh."
"Besides, don't you think his song is pretty good too?"
At this point in Zhang Lin's speech, Xu An on stage suddenly raised his voice.
Life should have an attitude
Attitude depends on the person.
Life wants me to show weakness
I laughed and brushed it off.
……
Upon hearing this lyric, a look of confusion flashed across Chen Zize's eyes.
Is this song really okay?
In fact, Zhang Lin was right. Xu An's song did not get him criticized. On the contrary, it boosted the show's popularity again, which made Chen Hong, who was always keeping an eye on the show's popularity, very happy.
"Great! Xu An sang this song very well!"
The assistant director standing nearby agreed with this, and not only did the popularity increase, but the number of comments in the live stream also increased.
When Xu An opened his mouth, I was dumbfounded. What was all this?! It felt like I'd been given a huge dumping ground for talking, but you know what? After listening for a couple of sentences, hey, wow!
Stop talking, this song is so catchy, all I can think of right now is "My house is on fire, I'm taking pictures; my life is in chaos, I'm sleeping..."
[That's right, the boss just asked me to work overtime because I hadn't finished my work, but I refused immediately. My main principle is to put off today's tasks as long as possible.]
This song is indeed quite interesting, and it seems to be an original composition by Xu An; at least I couldn't find the lyrics online.
Haha, the way he looks, he's definitely the kind of person who could write songs like this.
[That's right, if it were someone else from a different production team singing, I would immediately and vehemently accuse them of plagiarism.]
……
Life is bound to have its ups and downs.
All roads lead to Rome
Every hurdle is difficult, but every hurdle is overcome.
After singing the last few lines, Xu An looked at the somewhat quiet stage in front of him, not quite reacting.
Why is there no reaction after I finished singing? Is it because I sang too badly?
The moment the thought crossed Xu An's mind, he heard thunderous applause from the audience, especially from some of the younger spectators whose hands were practically red from clapping.
The lyrics of Xu An's song are so fitting.
They sang out their innermost feelings.
That's exactly how it should be!
Seeing this, Xu Anxin felt relieved.
It looks like it's working well; I'll probably earn a lot of reverse roll value this time.
That's right. After learning that he could gain more "anti-revolution points" by promoting anti-revolutionary ideas and influencing others, Xu An immediately thought of this song.
For this reason, he even used the universal skill card on his guitar to make it easier for him to accompany himself.
Fortunately, having listened to this song many times in his previous life, and with some music theory knowledge that came to mind after learning guitar skills, Xu An managed to barely reproduce the song.
Judging from the current situation, the results are quite good.
As soon as I stepped off the stage, I saw Chen Hong walking over with a smile.
"Xiao Xu, you sang this song quite well. Would you be interested in participating in a short interview with our program team later?"
