Starting from the semi-finals, Zhongjing TV will broadcast live simultaneously with Fanqie.com.

"The Star of Tomorrow" was already very popular, and with Ye Cang's frequent appearance on hot searches recently, it has also attracted many viewers who did not watch reality shows. Especially the previous quarrel between Uncle Squid and your father, which even attracted Principal Fang. Later, many singers reposted it on Weibo, which triggered a discussion in society.

Therefore, the number of live viewers for this semi-final has reached a new high, and even the ratings of Zhongjing TV have soared to first place.

The semi-finals are divided into two stages. In the first half, the contestants sing their own selected songs, which are scored by the judges and the audience on site. Those with higher scores have the right to choose their opponents first in the second half. The winner will directly enter the top three, and the losers will compete to decide the third and fourth.

This means that if the performance is not good enough, he may have to sing all three shows.

Ye Cang was drawn to be the first to perform in the last show, which was not a good draw originally, but it is perfect for him now. After all, after the first show, he still has enough time to rest and prepare for the next show.

Ye Cang walked onto the stage step by step, and there was a burst of screams from the audience, and many fans were shouting his name.

Ye Cang's outfit for this show was very simple, just a white shirt and jeans. Looking closely, it was very similar to the first show, but now it was completely different from the situation at that time.

Not only did the fans in the audience shout his name, but the netizens in front of the TV and the live broadcast were also looking forward to the song he would sing in this show.

The lights dimmed, and Ye Cang held the microphone and nodded to the back.

The director was nervous, and stared at the feedback from the camera with all the staff.

In fact, this song is not difficult, but it is a new song after all. The score was written by Ye Cang on the spot, and later it was only rehearsed once. In addition, Ye Cang was still sick. It was said that his temperature was measured before the show started and he still had a low fever. They were all worried that there would be problems with the live broadcast.

On the scene.

Following Ye Cang's signal, the guitarist plucked the strings, and a string of smooth music slid out.

The song is completely unfamiliar, and the prelude has a bit of folk flavor, faint and a little sad.

"The Dying Traveler" is the last song Li Jun left in this world. He is not a man of extraordinary talent. Even the last song does not have a stunning melody, but it contains strong emotions that cannot be ignored.

Li Jun's life is actually like a journey. He is like a lone traveler who is incompatible with this world. The only thing that depends on him is the piano in his hand.

Where is his destination? Maybe he himself does not know, or maybe his destination is too far away and he may not be able to reach it in his lifetime.

Loneliness, loneliness and despair.

These are the feelings he has most during the journey.

However, he has never regretted it. Even if he is at the end of his road and gives up his life, he has never regretted embarking on such a journey.

If it were someone else, I am afraid they would not be able to understand such a strong emotion.

However, Ye Cang is different. In this world, perhaps no one understands Li Jun better than him. His soul has been in the world for more than 30 years. During these 30 years, he could not leave his old home, no one could see him, no one could communicate with him, and everything in this world had nothing to do with him.

He stayed in the world because of his strong obsession and his pure love for music. Once he gave up, he would disappear from the world at any time.

Sometimes, under extreme loneliness, Ye Cang also wavered, and he didn't even know what he was insisting on.

But if he disappeared, he would never be able to sing again.

No, he didn't want to, he hadn't sung enough, he wanted to stand on this stage again.

The desolation and determination in the music are his answer to the world.

Ye Cang bent down and sang the lyrics almost in a roar.

He was the dying traveler, but he would never, ever regret, and would never, ever give up.

The light he radiated could not be extinguished by all the sufferings in this world, and moved everyone on and off the stage.

After this performance, Ye Cang was drenched in sweat, and he looked like he had just been pulled out of the water.

When he finished singing, not only did the audience give him enthusiastic applause, but the band behind him also put down their instruments and applauded him, and the guitarist even wiped his eyes carelessly.

They are actually travelers on this road, and no one understands the meaning of this song better than them. They may not be as extreme as Li Jun, but they have already experienced the courage of the song to move forward without regret.

Ye Cang held the microphone stand and kept breathing heavily.

The host came over and asked worriedly, "Ye Cang, are you okay?"

Ye Cang stood up straight, wiped the sweat off his face roughly, and said with a relaxed smile, "Not bad."

"I heard that you were sick before the game, but still gave us such a wonderful performance. I was shocked."

Hearing the host ask this, Ye Cang just smiled. He knew what the host meant, but did not continue with his words: "You also said that you were sick before the game. This has nothing to do with my performance on the stage. Good is good, bad is bad. When a singer goes on stage, it is like a soldier going to the battlefield. The performance on the field is the key to determining life and death."

He said this calmly, not deliberately for the sake of gimmicks, but this is what he thought and did.

The host originally thought that this person was a little ignorant, but when she saw him sweating and trembling slightly, she was speechless, but she still had to say what she had to say.

The host asked: "I haven't heard this song before, is it your original creation?"

Ye Cang shook his head: "No, the author of this song is called Li Jun, maybe no one knows him."

"Is he a free musician?" The host was a little curious, "You must have a good relationship with him. He must be very happy to know that you chose to sing a good friend's song in such an important competition."

"We are not friends. He actually doesn't know me at all." Ye Cang said lightly, "As for whether he will be happy, I don't know. Because he is no longer in this world."

The scene was in an uproar.

The host actually knew the inside story a long time ago, but he was still surprised and led Ye Cang to tell the story behind it.

With such a tragic background story, everyone present felt a little heavy.

Ye Cang said slowly: "In fact, there are many people like Li Jun in the world. I can't comment on his choice. But this is a good song. It shouldn't be heard only by me, nor should it exist only in such a sunset."

After Ye Cang finished speaking, he bowed to the audience and left the stage.

For them, this stage is the initial dream and the final destination.

——After

leaving the stage, the calmness on Ye Cang's face completely disappeared. He staggered and almost fell. He quickly held on to the shelf beside him.

Shen Huai hurried over and supported him.

Ye Cang started coughing heavily, as if he was going to cough out his lungs. He was just struggling to hold on on stage, but when he got off stage, he couldn't hold on any longer as the breath he had lost was leaking out.

Shen Huai didn't know what to say, so he could only help him into the lounge. He didn't notice it in the dim light before, but now that he was in the lounge, he realized that his face was pale and his lips were extremely white. It was as if he was overdrawing his vitality when he sang this song.

Shen Huai was a little helpless. After helping him sit down, he brought the thermos and medicine to him: "Drink some hot water first and take the medicine."

Ye Cang reached out to take it, and Shen Huai noticed that his hands were shaking. He was not well in the first place, and his health was worse than he had imagined. He tried his best to sing on stage, without saving any energy, and he was holding on completely by willpower. It was a miracle that he could hold on until he got off stage.

Under normal circumstances, Shen Huai would definitely blame him for not taking care of his body, but at this moment, he could not say a word.

Because he understood better than anyone else present what the stage meant to Ye Cang.

Shen Huai brought the cup of water to his lips and whispered, "Don't move, take the medicine first."

Ye Cang rarely refrained from making a fuss. He drank the water obediently and leaned back in the recliner to rest. Shen Huai took a blanket from the side and covered him with it, then took out a handkerchief and carefully wiped the sweat off his face. The

makeup artist standing by picked up the powder puff, but finally put it down. Seeing Ye Cang sweating profusely, even if he touched up his makeup, it would probably be washed away by the sweat in a while.

The other players and staff members did not say anything. Seeing Ye Cang's appearance on the stage before, no one believed that he was so seriously ill.

The on-site director came over and asked Shen Huai worriedly: "Can you still hold on? There is another game later."

Shen Huai glanced at Ye Cang. He was already asleep due to exhaustion, but Shen Huai knew that he would not choose to escape at this time.

He nodded: "Okay." He paused and said, "But please help us call a car and send him to the hospital immediately after the game."

The director moved his lips, as if he wanted to say something, but in the end he just sighed and left.

At this time, Ye Cang's final score was already displayed on the broadcast screen in the lounge.

——9.2 points.

Shen Huai was a little surprised.

The scores of several judges were given directly on the spot. Except for Xia Fei who gave 10 points, the other two judges only gave 9 points. However, the judges' scores only accounted for 50%, which means that the average score of the audience was at least 9 points. It is difficult to satisfy everyone. Getting this score from so many audiences is enough to prove how well Ye Cang performed in this game.

The songs in this competition are actually very simple, but it is even more difficult to sing them well.

Ye Cang fully expressed the emotions that Li Jun's song wanted to express, which infected all the audience off the field and the audience in front of the screen.

The bullet screen of the live broadcast was like being drowned by tears. Even if someone wanted to say something bad about Ye Cang, they were quickly drowned out.

[Wuwuwuwu, I cried my ass off]

[I don't know why, I feel so bad when I hear this song, and I feel even worse when I see the story behind it]

[Is this true? This is the first time I hope this is just a story]

[My tears are worthless, wuwuwawawa!!]

[So this is what love is, to do everything you can, to work hard to do something, Ye Cang can sing this song, he must be such a person]

And the players who came out after Ye Cang were more or less infected, making tonight's game full of sparks, and the audience was very excited.

But these have nothing to do with Ye Cang and Shen Huai.

Shen Huai picked up the thermometer and found that although his body temperature did not drop, it did not rise either, so he breathed a sigh of relief.

He looked down at Ye Cang. At this moment, Ye Cang did not look as carefree as usual. He lay on the chair with a slightly frowned brow. With his pale face, he looked much more fragile.

Shen Huai pulled the blanket that had slipped off for him, and his eyes revealed a tenderness that he himself did not know.

After all the contestants had finished singing, Shen Huai called Ye Cang up.

Ye Cang had a nap and seemed to be in much better spirits. Seeing Shen Huai's gentle attitude, he blinked: "I'm about to go on stage. Agent, won't you give me a lucky kiss?"

Shen Huai: "..."

He seems to be much better now that he can talk nonsense.

Shen Huai's expression suddenly became cold, and that bit of tenderness was like the residual snow under the sun, which quickly disappeared.

Ye Cang made a "tsk" sound, but did not dare to tease him again, and went on stage obediently.

In the first half, Ye Cang scored the highest, so it was up to him to choose his opponent.

Jiang Junyan clenched his fists tightly. He was somewhat self-aware. He was the weakest of the three. Ye Cang had conflicts with him, and he was also ill. If he wanted to win, he would be the most likely to choose himself.

However, Ye Cang swept past everyone and landed on Li Zihang.

The audience below realized something and immediately became agitated. These were the two strongest players in the game. Was the championship and runner-up competition going to start early?

The host was also very excited and turned the microphone over: "Ye Cang, are you really going to choose Li Zihang?"

Li Zihang knew his situation and said with a smile: "Are you really going to choose me?"

Ye Cang smiled: "Why not?"

Li Zihang's eyes lit up: "Okay. But I have to make it clear first, I will not let you win. If you lose, just go and play the third game!"

"Who let you win?" Ye Cang sneered, "It's not certain who will play the third game!"

Although the two have not yet faced each other, the gunpowder smell is already ready to explode.

For the audience, this is a rare scene. After all, before this, the two have never faced each other head-on.

Ye Cang and Li Zihang, who is the strongest? !
