Bei Chen walked slowly, but steadily.
Every step has piqued the curiosity of many.
"Thank you all for coming. I really didn't expect there to be so many people."
What should I do? Why am I getting a little nervous?
Of course, that was just a warm-up remark.
The original owner was often exposed to the camera, but Bei Chen had integrated his memories and past, so for such occasions, it was a piece of cake.
"Before the concert starts, I'd like to chat with you all a bit."
Bei Chen's words made many people sit up straight, feeling that things weren't so simple.
Sure enough, their idea was proven true the next second.
"I'm sure everyone knows something about Shang Liangyu's case."
Bullying has existed throughout history.
People know that it happens frequently, but they don't know the specific figures behind it.
I specifically looked up some information about this song:
This data was provided by a university in 2020.
The incidence of school bullying in Kyushu is 32.4%.
Among them, there are several types.
Physical bullying accounted for 12.7%.
Verbal bullying accounted for 17.4%.
Relationship bullying accounted for 10.5%.
Cyberbullying accounted for 6.8%.
This data might not be immediately clear to everyone, so I'll just give a brief explanation.
The data behind this means that at least one in every three to four primary and secondary school students has experienced school bullying.
What's even more terrifying?
Among children who were bullied, only 27.2% of their parents cited reasons such as physical injuries, bad mood, or reluctance to go to school.
And if there is suspicion, or if it is discovered that the child has been bullied.
What about the other children?
How can we ensure his childhood is peaceful and secure?
No one expected that Bei Chen would uncover bullying data while creating a song.
Even more unexpectedly, the data behind this was so frightening!
Upon hearing this, netizens were no longer calm:
[Wow, after hearing this, I got chills down my spine! One in three or four people is a victim of bullying, that's terrifying!]
These kinds of things often happen during the transition from elementary to middle school; fights and brawls are particularly common.
This is terrifying. I just hope that my children will never bully others or be bullied by others in the future.
But then again, this masked man is quite dedicated!
[That's right, that's right. I really didn't know these stats until he told me. Suddenly, I feel like he might actually be able to write a great song!]
[+1, I agree with the comment above...]
You can get a general idea of a person's habits from a small thing.
Nowadays, most people's impression of Bei Chen is that he is dedicated.
But nothing is more difficult than not putting your heart into it.
Therefore, they are even more excited for their next song!
Bei Chen clipped the microphone to the stand:
"After saying all this, I have no other intention than to give everyone some food for thought."
Alright, enough with the chit-chat!
Since we're all here for this song, let's get started!
He had already displayed the song information on the big screen.
Everyone perked up their ears—was it finally about to begin?!
Song: "Rose Boy"
Singer: Mr. Mask
Lyrics and music by: Mr. Mask
(The song was actually sung by Jolin Tsai, with lyrics by Jolin Tsai and Hsin-Hung Chen, lyrics by Yi-Ju Chen, and music by Razor Chiang and Jolin Tsai!)
(The male and female voices are different, so this is the Mayday version!)
With a gentle touch of the accompaniment, Bei Chen closed his eyes to the melody.
After a week of practice, he had mastered the song.
The heavy piano music began, carrying a sorrowful mood from the very beginning.
It is not the same as the original version.
The original version's intro has more elements, creating a completely different feeling.
Half wild, half gentle!
It better illustrates bullying.
Whose soul was placed into whose body?
"Who turned whose body into a prison to confine themselves?"
"..."
As an assassin, Bei Chen has his own understanding and definition of death.
He was also experiencing bullying.
From being praised for good looks to being targeted for disfigurement, the endless ridicule is a form of cyberbullying.
Bei Chen's pity for Shang Liangyu was also a kind of pity for the weak.
A mixture of emotions made his singing sound all the more melancholic.
That intense emotion penetrated people's hearts at lightning speed.
It's so congested!
This was their first impression.
My second impression was that this masked man could sing.
Regardless of the quality of the lyrics, at least the singing skills are up to par.
But the next second, their impression of Mr. Mask was completely changed once again.
"You are not guilty; the world is guilty."
"Being born a human being is not a sin; you don't need to apologize."
"..."
The problem isn't with me, it's with the world.
This phrase is often used by irresponsible people to shirk responsibility.
But it fits perfectly here.
Ken Kaneki experiences the same thing in Tokyo Ghoul.
He didn't want to become a ghoul or a man-eating monster, but fate played a cruel joke on him.
But alas, it was mercilessly tormented by the gecko.
In such an environment, he had no choice but to fight for survival and for the people he wanted to protect.
He was never wrong!
The same applies to Shang Liangyu.
