The moment the song title was seen, the audience and netizens had already guessed what it was about!
Drowning one's sorrows in alcohol—the scene and the song title are a perfect match.
"Drink today, for tomorrow we may die; worry about tomorrow later." Wow, these two lines of poetry have a certain charm! How come I've never heard them before?
"No need to guess anymore, these two lines of poetry aren't online, so they were most likely written by Xiao Qingfeng himself!"
"Damn, Xiao Qingfeng is so talented! He speaks eloquently and fluently. It's really infuriating to compare people like him!"
At that moment, Professor Wen Yanbo of the Faculty of Letters at Kyoto University, who happened to be watching the live stream, heard these two lines of poetry and was immediately struck by their power.
"These two lines of poetry... are concise yet profound, fully expressing the broad-mindedness of drinkers throughout history!"
The old professor, who had always looked down on the entertainment industry, suddenly became curious as he watched Xiao Qingfeng in the live stream and looked at the song information on the screen.
He surprisingly stopped, wanting to see how this young man on stage would express this song of sorrow.
After all, in the old professor's impression, most young people nowadays are just making a fuss over nothing, they don't know anything about worries, they're just bored and have nothing better to do.
"Hmph, if you're just seeking fame and fortune, making a fuss over nothing, watch how I write an article to teach you a lesson, you good-for-nothing!" the old professor thought to himself.
On stage, when the music reached a certain point, Xiao Qingfeng began to sing!
【When you step into this place of joy】
Carry all your dreams and aspirations on your back
Different faces, different makeup.
No one remembers what I look like.
The old professor was immediately captivated by the lyrics.
Professor Bi is a scholar, and his perspective on text is completely different from that of ordinary people. He tries to understand the emotions expressed in the text by focusing on its inner meaning.
These four lines of lyrics are like a delicate emotional painting, profoundly depicting the author's inner world in a specific situation.
On a psychological level, confusion and loneliness are ever-present companions. That lively and joyful place should be a vibrant and laughter-filled space, but for the author, it was like an alien dimension he couldn't fit into. Isn't this precisely the reality for many people today?
Dreams should be a guiding light on the road ahead, but in this hustle and bustle, they have become a heavy burden, making the author feel extremely lonely in the crowd.
Everyone is busy in this chaotic world, but the author seems to be forgotten in a corner, ignored and as insignificant as dust.
Helplessness and confusion also quietly arose at this time. Looking at the various people around him, each wearing their own mask and living their own lives, the author lost his way, not knowing how to realize his dreams or where the future lay. This sense of uncertainty shrouded his heart like a fog.
The audience at the scene and the netizens in the live broadcast room naturally did not have the rich inner world of this old professor, but they were equally attracted by the lyrics and melody of the song.
It seems that Xiao Qingfeng's songs have this kind of magic, coming from life and showcasing it in his songs, allowing listeners to enter a certain world in an instant.
Or, to put it another way, it accurately expresses the feelings that the listener wants to express but cannot in everyday life, and this feeling is simply called emotional resonance.
The audience listened quietly to Xiao Qingfeng's singing, and many people's thoughts gradually drifted away.
Many young people who have just entered the workforce recall their early days in the workplace, walking into the seemingly bustling office with a heart full of aspirations and dreams, only to find themselves so insignificant among the busy crowd.
I tried hard to integrate into the group, offered help, and actively participated in discussions, but what I got in return was the unintentional neglect from my colleagues.
Watching the people around me focused on their work, with expressions that were either serious or relaxed, just like "different makeup on different faces," my own appearance seemed to have never been truly remembered.
A sense of loneliness and confusion instantly overwhelmed me. I didn't know where the future lay, and my dreams seemed unattainable in this unfamiliar environment.
"When I first arrived in the new city, there were unfamiliar faces everywhere. I tried hard to fit in but felt out of place."
"This song is so heartbreaking. When I first started working, I tried my best to perform, but I was still ignored."
"Xiao Qingfeng sang our hearts out; that feeling of loneliness is truly heartbreaking."
"It's like walking into a place of fun that doesn't belong to you, and you just can't fit in."
Viewers in the live stream shared similar feelings they had experienced or were experiencing, finding emotional resonance in Xiao Qingfeng's songs.
It's as if this song was sung for them, expressing their unspeakable helplessness and confusion.
After three rounds of drinks, I found myself in the corner.
Stubbornly singing a bitter song.
Listen to it being drowned out by the noise.
You pick up your glass and say to yourself.
At this moment, Xiao Qingfeng walked to the table and casually picked up a glass of red wine!
A pair of clear eyes gazed affectionately at the wine in the glass!
One cup to the rising sun, one cup to the pure moonlight.
[Awakening my longing, the cold window shines with gentle warmth]
Therefore, one can fly against the wind without looking back.
[Not afraid of rain in my heart or frost in my eyes]
After singing that line, while catching his breath, Xiao Qingfeng downed the wine in his glass in one gulp, then quickly picked up another glass from the table and drank it all in one go.
Two glasses of wine down in an instant!
This scene shocked everyone. This was a competition, and they were drinking halfway through a performance?
"Wow! Xiao Qingfeng is so domineering! Drinking on the spot during the competition, that's absolutely amazing."
"It was so moving! He was truly singing with his soul. At the moment he was drinking, I felt like he released all his emotions."
"I've never seen a performance like this before. Xiao Qingfeng is truly extraordinary. This is a real artist."
"This is taking the idea of drowning one's sorrows in alcohol to the extreme! I admire you, your courage and expressiveness are unmatched."
"It felt like he wasn't competing, but telling a profound story. After drinking those two glasses of wine, it was as if we were drawn into his world."
...
On the stage at this moment, Xiao Qingfeng picked up his third glass of wine!
One cup to our hometown, one cup to those far away.
My kindness has fueled my growth.
Therefore, the journey between north and south was no longer long.
The soul is no longer adrift.
At this point in the song, Xiao Qingfeng drank two more glasses!
The restless guests
[Performing in a self-righteous manner]
[Pretending, dancing, exhausted]
You pick up your glass and say to yourself.
One cup to the rising sun, one cup to the pure moonlight.
[Awakening my longing, the cold window shines with gentle warmth]
Therefore, one can fly against the wind without looking back.
[Not afraid of rain in my heart or frost in my eyes]
One cup to our hometown, one cup to those far away.
My kindness has fueled my growth.
Therefore, the journey between north and south was no longer long.
The soul is no longer adrift.
Countless people were moved when they heard the phrase "the soul no longer has nowhere to rest."
What is the purpose of living a life of wandering and traveling far from home?
In the end, it's all just a struggle to find a place for one's soul to belong!
Many people's eyes began to well up with tears at this moment. At this moment, they just wanted to find a quiet place, have a few drinks alone, and then have a good night's sleep.
At this moment, Xiao Qingfeng had already picked up his fifth cup of wine!
One toast to tomorrow, one toast to the past.
The weight supporting my body has become my shoulders.
Although I've never believed in the idea of mountains reaching high and rivers flowing long.
Life is too short to dwell on the past.
One toast to freedom, one toast to death.
Forgiveness for my ordinariness dispelled my confusion.
Okay, I always leave hastily after dawn.
The most absurd people are those who are clear-headed.
