Chapter 23 Hold on! We can win!(1/2)

 Liu Weiwei, who didn’t know what Xiao Ning was going to sing until this morning, was filled with excitement.

Because this time, even she had not heard Xiao Ning sing this song in advance. She just briefly looked at the music score and lyrics. How did she feel when Xiao Ning sang "The Brightest Star in the Night Sky"? In fact,

She doesn't know either.

More or less, before Xiao Ning started singing, she felt a little uneasy.

But Liu Weiwei has been comforting herself.

Now that Xiao Ning has already released a song "The Lonely Warrior", even if this song "The Brightest Star in the Night Sky" is not that brilliant, and even if he cannot advance to this round of knockout rounds, it is actually very good.

But after all, Xiao Ning had been unknown for a whole year before he started to improve. As his manager and his senior sister, Liu Weiwei still wanted to see the scene where Xiao Ning could attract everyone's attention.

Now, this expectation seems to have been realized.

"Junior is actually more than just a lone warrior..."

"How did this kid do it? He has obviously never learned to write songs before!"

Thinking of this, Liu Weiwei, who was still feeling "brightened" just now, suddenly twitched her brows.

"Wait..."

"I have been asking him for the past two days when he will finalize the song, but he has been pushing away..."

"The lyrics and music score were not sent to me until this morning."

"I couldn't figure out why he had to wait until this morning to tell me, but now that I think about it..."

Liu Weiwei swallowed hard, recalling Xiao Ning climbing the stairs with bare hands at the company headquarters last night, and what the other party said last night...

"No way, no way!"

"Is my junior really an extreme sports enthusiast?"

"Is he really relying on extreme sports to find inspiration for writing songs?"

"The song "The Brightest Star in the Night Sky" was inspired by him after climbing up the stairs last night?"

After thinking of this, Liu Weiwei was almost stupid.

Climb a building and write a song that can beat Xu Minghao's "Jimei"?

The time between when he climbed the stairs and when he sent the song was only one night! Excluding the time for sleeping, it was only three or four hours!

Not only did he write the song, he even made the accompaniment!

"No wonder I feel very simple and pure when listening to this accompaniment. Now I think about it..."

"I'm afraid it's because time is too tight, so Xiao Ning doesn't have time to add complicated things, right?"

In ancient times, a great master composed a poem in seven steps, but today a junior student composed a song in twelve steps?

When Liu Weiwei's face was full of astonishment, Xiao Ning had just finished singing the first verse of the verse, and everyone's emotions were pulled by the faint feeling of sadness.

When everyone subconsciously thinks that the tone of this song is this faint sadness.

Without warning, the strings of the violin cut in, and after a few verses of the verses were sung, the lyrics went directly into the chorus.

The chorus part seems to have nothing to do with "sadness" in terms of singing style and lyrics.

As the melody and rhythm of the chorus changed, the emotion the song wanted to express suddenly became more positive. Although all these changes appeared suddenly, it did not make anyone feel abrupt.

"I pray to have a transparent heart

and eyes that shed tears

Give me the courage to believe again

Go beyond lies to embrace you

Whenever I can’t find the meaning of existence

Whenever I'm lost in the night

The brightest star in the night sky

Please guide me to get closer to you..."

Before the chorus, the picture in people's minds is of a lonely man looking up at the stars in the sky and speaking slowly when the night falls.

My former partners drifted away, leaving me alone to sigh.

The feeling of this entire chorus has changed from light to strong. People can't help but be infected, and can't help but think of some people, things, and things that have left them.

Only then did everyone discover what the so-called brightest star in the night sky meant.

It can be a lover, a relative, a friend, a partner, an important thing, an important item, or even everything.

The brightest star refers to what you care about most.

"I would rather keep all the pain in my heart

I don’t want to forget your eyes either

Give me the courage to believe again

Go beyond the lies to embrace you..."

Xiao Ning sang on the stage.

Offstage, the live TV audience listened attentively.

This song may not be that exciting at first, as it doesn’t have any fancy high notes, but the pure emotion expressed in Xiao Ning’s singing has deeply infected everyone.

The slightly obscure lyrics bring connotations that everyone can easily relate to.

Who doesn’t have someone they miss?

Who hasn’t regretted something?

Who hasn’t missed the past so much that they can no longer go back?

……

In the small and cramped rental house, the delivery boy who had been delivering food all day had just returned home and was listening to the live TV broadcast on his mobile phone while pressing his sore arms.

"Whenever I can't find the meaning of existence

Whenever I'm lost in the night

The brightest star in the night sky, please light my way forward..."

As the song rang, the delivery boy’s mother, who was working as a farmer in his hometown, appeared in his mind.

"Mom..."

His mother's figure flashed past, and he suddenly remembered something about delivering food today.

Today, most of the customers received compliments and "thank you", but there were also some customers who complained that he was late in delivering food.

He went out to run the bike at six o'clock in the morning and was already very tired by that afternoon.

He didn't mean to be slow in delivering food, but the residential building had a power outage and he could only climb more than 20 flights of stairs carrying takeout.

He accepted the guests' complaints, but the feeling of not being understood and not being sympathized with really made his already tired body even weaker.

While the music was still playing, the words that his mother had told him when he left his hometown half a year ago resounded in my brother's mind: "Don't always think about going out to make money and come back to build a house. It's not like our house cannot be lived in. The main room is not unlivable."

I'll just ask your Uncle Zhao to help repair the rotten wall over there. Go out and take care of yourself, don't make bad friends, do as many good things as you can, and call home anytime if you have any problems..."

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading!

The music has ended.

For a young man working alone in a strange city, his mother is the brightest star in his heart.

The little brother murmured to himself with red eyes: "Mom, don't worry, I will work hard and let you live a good life."

The workers waiting for the subway at the subway station, the ride-hailing masters waiting at the red light, the senior high school students who have just finished their self-study get out of class in the evening, and the postgraduate entrance examination candidates working silently in the library...

There is such a brightest star in everyone's heart, which is the source of motivation to support your hard life.

When you feel tired, you might as well look up at such a star.

……

Live at Jiangcheng TV Studio No. 3, on the stage.

"The brightest star in the night sky

Can you hear me clearly

The one who looks up

The loneliness and sigh in my heart..."

Xiao Ning finished singing the last line of the lyrics, and the guitar and violin suddenly stopped.

After two or three seconds, sporadic applause began to appear in the audience. It was scattered at first, and then became more and more enthusiastic.

Until the thunderous applause!

Here, the judges are giving Xiao Ning high praise.
To be continued...
