Chapter 99
Gorgeous stage with bright lights.
But whether it was the audience at the scene or the tens of millions of netizens watching the live broadcast, it felt like time had frozen for a moment.
Only the director team.
At this moment, the director who was staring at the screen had a green light in his eyes, and he said in an excited and weird tone: "The show has finally begun!"
Then the director started yelling.
"The cameras are all pointed at me."
"All the lights are ready."
"Pay attention to the expressions of the audience and guests."
"Switch to close-up camera at any time!"
"Can't miss a single detail."
"The labor and management must record all the subsequent changes in everyone's expressions! They are the key factors that will determine whether the ratings of the next program will explode after it is broadcast!"
Starting from the announcement of the launch of "Singer Style".
Because of a poster, the program team and Hao Mingxing were involved in the whirlpool of public opinion.
Fortunately, Hao Mingxing was saved by the topic of "distressed cannon fodder Hao Mingxing".
But the directing team of "Singer Style" was scolded by countless fans.
And from now on.
Their program team is finally about to have a proud moment!
The net that has been laid out for so long will finally begin to harvest in the next few minutes!
…
In the center of the stage.
Hao Mingxing still had a faint smile on his face.
But the host at this moment was already blinded.
Fortunately, his profound professionalism made him come back to his senses in just a second or two, but there was still a strong look of surprise on his face: "You... mean, you will sing a new song later?"
"Yes."
"What song is this?"
"You'll find out later."
The host took a deep breath and said, "Okay, I hope your next new song can bring us a new feeling. Now, the stage is handed over to you."
After finishing speaking, he quickly walked off the stage.
The audience in the audience had already exploded.
In the live broadcast room, the barrage also suddenly surged.
"Did I hear correctly?"
"Hao Mingxing wants to sing a new song?"
"What operation is this?"
"No wonder Hao Mingxing has always been so calm. It turns out he has a back-up plan."
"But, a new song can change your life? Don't be ridiculous. If you sing an adapted old song, it will easily resonate with the audience. But if you sing a new song, unless the new song is incredibly good, it will not be possible in a short time. Getting recognition from the audience can be said to be more gain than loss.”
In previous music variety shows, no one has sung new songs, but the effect was not good.
Because singing new songs is a difficult challenge.
Unless you have strong confidence that the new song can resonate with the audience in the shortest time, it may not be as effective as the old song.
Can Hao Mingxing have such confidence?
The audience was still whispering among themselves.
Center stage.
The originally peaceful light suddenly became bright.

The noise in the audience stopped, and their eyes gradually focused on Hao Mingxing on the stage.
Hao Mingxing, who was dressed in simple casual clothes, looked at the empty place, with a hint of inexplicable emotion in his eyes. He picked up the microphone and started singing.
His singing voice still carries the unique smokey voice style that only he possesses.
"Maybe it's loneliness, the air has become very thin,
The city is full of neon lights and the desert is blooming.
Still waiting for you, my heart is dying,
I need something to stimulate my soul. "
Offstage.
The expressions of the audience gradually became more exciting.
Hao Mingxing's voice is so special that you can tell whether a song is good or not just by speaking.
And this song.
seem……
Judging from Hao Mingxing's singing, it looks very good?
Anyway, when the singing came to everyone's ears, everyone felt tired of listening to the ordinary songs before and suddenly felt very refreshed.
Especially the guests on the side had astonishment on their faces.

Let you, free, enjoy my misery. "

"This city is so empty, these memories are so fierce,
This street is full of traffic, who can I hug?
This brow is so heavy, this longing is so deep,
Alone,
I follow this feeling. "
When the singing sang through the stage, the audience felt that their hearts began to wander along with the melody, wandering in this empty city.
Like a release of the soul.
Suddenly, it felt like an electric current was passing through my body, and the numbing feeling was almost difficult to describe in words.
