Hou Wenjie continued speaking on stage:

"When we were little, we always dreamed of growing up, thinking that when we grew up, we could be free and fly in the sky like birds."

In reality, for many ordinary people like me, growing up means having to consider survival.

There may be too much hardship involved.

But we are still trying to live.

The song "Silly Kid" is dedicated to all ordinary people who strive to live their lives!

As the intro to the song began, Hou Wenjie started to build up his emotions.

After all the preludes were finished, Hou Wenjie's singing began.

Oh~ There's a silly little boy outside the quiet village.

Born in the 1990s

When I was around ten years old, I wasn't afraid of the sun in the city.

Strive in the 2000s

I've discovered that my friends in the city don't need to irrigate!

Flowers will bloom naturally.

Oh~ how quickly this silly kid has grown up!

It's the 2010s again.

Thirty years old is neither good nor bad in the end.

After the 1920s

The most frustrating thing is that he's always a step behind everyone else.

There's no money in that pocket.

Hou Wenjie's singing is like telling the story of a child's growth.

There was no sentimentality, no shouting, only the most moving simple descriptions!

"The lyrics and rhythm at the beginning made me want to laugh a little, but when I heard that there was no money in my pocket, I couldn't hold back anymore!"

"It matches my birth timeline perfectly! I've worked so many years, and I feel like I've been working diligently every year, but I don't know why I'm still broke!"

"I'm always a step behind others, that's true! I've always been a slow learner, and because I'm a temporary worker, I don't stay at any job for very long."

Every time I had to relearn something, I started to feel a bit inferior!

"I'm so sad! This is exactly me, Boss Hou! How could you write a song about me like this?!"

…

The singing continued.

Hey, pat your chest and stand up bravely!

Don't be in a bad mood

Oh dear, pray to the sky and don't think too much.

Heaven has its own plan.

The last verse of the first section reached the ears of everyone watching the game.

Just as many people couldn't help but post comments, a conversation that sounded like a joke began to play.

Is there any difference between a slow learner and a smart learner?

Of course there's a difference! Smart kids are amazing!

Even silly kids are cute.

After the conversation finished playing, many people deleted what they were about to type and typed it again.

"After listening to this part, I feel that this song is... really good. The tone is funny, and it really has a kind of... optimistic power!"

"I was feeling a little sad at first, but the silly kid in this song really makes you realize that sometimes, maybe you should just smile!"

"Oh, it's quite funny. I'm also a silly kid, and sometimes I really feel down. This song is great!"

…

The song has progressed to its second verse.

Oh, they say women don't love bad boys in the city.

I just can't understand it.

Mom said that true love can be wonderful.

As a result, I didn't have a girl.

The silly child remained as strong as a rock.

It's just that I feel unbearably lonely at night.

Ouch, pat your chest and stand up bravely!

Don't be in a bad mood

Oh dear, pray to the sky and don't think too much.

Heaven has its own arrangements.

Ouch, pat your chest and stand up bravely!

Who cares about going up mountains or down to the sea?

Oh dear, pray to the sky and don't think too much.

Heaven has its own arrangements.

God loves the clumsy child.

After Hou Wenjie finished singing a song, the number of video views surged exponentially!

The video's comments section is already overflowing with messages.

"Compared to some of the sad songs sung by others before me, this song touched me more, giving me a feeling of finding joy in hardship!"

"Yes, it's that feeling of friends sitting together and bragging!"

"I don't understand many profound principles, nor do I like the various debates in society today, but I like this song, 'Stupid Kid.' The stupid kid has no money, but he stands bravely."

There are many things about dreams, but when it comes to living, we always cling to the idea of ​​meaning. In reality, living is simply living; accept the ordinary, and be a simple, honest person!

"I was alone in my rented room, listening to this song, laughing and crying at the same time. I felt like that kind of person, somewhat numb, but listening to this song touched me inexplicably!"

…

The camera then pans to the judges' panel.

Jiang Xueshu pressed the button in front of her decisively.

She began, "You are still the best in my heart. This song, 'Stupid Kid,' is very good. Why did you come up with such a song title?"

Hou Wenjie picked up the microphone and said, "I remember a saying: May you leave home for half your life and return still a youth."

Nowadays, the internet is very unfriendly to many people who are approaching middle age. Not only do they not have an advantage at work, but they are also called "greasy" by others.

So, I think maybe the song "Stupid Kid" would suit them well.

I want to tell them here, you did nothing wrong, you are all old boys who are trying hard and living bravely!

Jiang Xueshu raised her pretty eyebrows: "Actually, I have also tried to read some books."

But I've never heard the phrase, "May you wander through half your life and return still a youth," can you tell me who said it?

Hou Wenjie said, "If no one else said it, then it's most likely that I said it."

"It has to be you again, Boss Hou, your acting caught me completely off guard!"

"I searched and couldn't find the source, so it's definitely original!"

"After all, it's not surprising at all for a big name like the author of 'Love Transfer' and 'Serving the Country with Utmost Loyalty' to say something like this, okay?"

"There's a memorable scene in every episode, I wonder if there will be another one in the final episode! It's hilarious!"

"Silly kid, old boy, Boss Hou's words are so precise! They're a hundred times worse than insulting terms like 'old cured meat'!"

"We're all old boys, living bravely every day. Boss Hou is really down-to-earth! He doesn't spout any of that empty talk!"

"What do you think? Boss Hou isn't one of those trainees. He really came from a poor background. Singing this kind of song is very much in line with his own personality!"

…

The comments section was filled with various opinions, while the camera focused on Yu Zhile in the video.

Yu Zhile also pressed the button: "My vote is still yours!"

This song, "Stupid Kid," is great. The idea behind it is really good, giving people the feeling of friends chatting and encouraging each other.

But you also mentioned themes like "May you leave home for half your life and return still a youth," and "Old Boy," have you ever considered making songs based on these two themes?

Hou Wenjie picked up the microphone and said directly:

"Actually, I have songs for both of the topics you mentioned!"

One song is "Youth," and the other is "Old Boy"!

Before, I hesitated about which song to choose: "Youth", "Old Boy", or "Stupid Kid".

In the end, I still chose "Silly Kid." I think this song can at least make everyone laugh a bit!

Yu Zhile's eyes widened in surprise, and then she said, "Really? Can you sing a part for everyone? A part of both songs?"

Hou Wenjie said, "I'm fine!"

Yu Zhile looked at the host, Zhang Fei.

Zhang Fei reached one hand towards his earpiece, clearly having received instructions from the director. As the show's main draw, the director was eager for the show to have a hit!

The director, of course, absolutely supports it!

So Zhang Fei nodded to Yu Zhile and Hou Wenjie and said:

"Then let's continue to enjoy Hou Wenjie's performance!"

After he finished speaking, the camera cut back to Hou Wenjie.

Hou Wenjie picked up the microphone and said, "Let's sing a short piece of each song first! Let's start with 'Youth'!"

Because this insertion was unexpected, there was naturally no accompaniment, so Hou Wenjie chose to sing it a cappella.

【wu oh oh

wu oh oh

I am still the same boy I used to be.

Not a single change

Time is just a test

The belief planted in my heart has not diminished in the slightest.

The boy in front of me

It's still the same face.

No matter how many difficulties lie ahead, we will not back down.

Say never, never give up

Like a fighter

"It sounds so good! So good! So good! Especially that opening hum! It's so crisp and clear!"

"I'm still the same boy I used to be! I feel like I've instantly become ten years younger!"

"Don't mention it, I'm off to make a video. I'm going to compare my old handsome photos with my current ones, and this song will be my signature background music!"

"Damn, you can't resist taking advantage of this short stretch! You've practically ripped off Boss Hou!"

"This song is really good. It shows what it means to be a young man at heart even after half a lifetime!"

"You wrote a song because of just one sentence, and it has to be you, Boss Hou!"

…

On the judges' panel, Yu Zhile looked at Hou Wenjie: "You've finished singing 'Youth'? It was so short?"

Hou Wenjie replied, "Yes, we agreed to sing a part!"

Yu Zhile pretended to be dissatisfied and said, "Then sing more 'Old Boy'!"

Hou Wenjie nodded and said, "Okay!"
