"No more?"
Wang Xingrui heard many people around her say this, and they seemed to feel a little regretful that the performance ended so soon.
"It should be gone. Didn't you see it's all turned into an advertisement?" Tang Yue smiled and said softly, "But I really didn't expect that Brother Yang would actually make a movie just for us!"
"Indeed," Lin Xuan'er nodded, her gaze involuntarily drifting towards the still-moving crowd. "Everyone must be quite reluctant to leave. I was wondering how Brother Yang could captivate the audience with just one song."
"Look now," Su Yin, standing next to Lin Xuan'er, took the initiative to finish her sister's words, "We're just too young! Since Brother Yang dared to do this, it's obvious that he had already arranged it."
Zhou Yiyang just stood by and listened to them praising him. Needless to say, he was quite happy.
"We have to go." Zhou Yiyang glanced at the crowd that had finally realized there was no show and began to leave, and whispered, "Otherwise, you'll definitely be recognized."
As expected, the four of them were a little flustered when they heard Zhou Yiyang say this.
After all, for them, if they are really recognized by fans, the consequences will be quite miserable.
Thinking of this, the four of them immediately followed Zhou Yiyang's pace and quickly returned to the car.
At the same time, the audience gathered under the ten shopping malls were still discussing the performance that had just taken place.
"This song is so good! I used to have no feelings for rap music, but this song gave me a different feeling." A girl grabbed her boyfriend's arm, leaned against him like a little bird, and whispered.
"I told you, rap music is awesome! But Helian Bei really surprised me this time. With his skills, he can definitely be considered a veteran!" the boy said with a smile.
Behind them, several high school girls were holding hands and chattering non-stop:
"That song just now was so beautiful! It was okay the first time I listened to it, but the more I listened to it, the more I felt it!"
"I love that accompaniment so much, it's so dark and profound!"
"Yeah, listening to this kind of music, we are much more cultured than those people in the class who only listen to TikTok hits!"
“But this song will soon become a viral hit on TikTok, right?”
"Hey, why are you destroying my stage?"
Not far away, an elderly couple who looked quite old walked into the mall, leaning on each other.
If it weren't for Helian Bei, they wouldn't have come to this newly built shopping mall in the city center.
However, what they are discussing now has nothing to do with the mall:
"I never thought that Helian Bei would sing this style of songs now?"
The boss came over curiously: "Don't you like it?"
"Of course not. The musical quality of this song is easily ranked in the top ten of Helian Bei's career." The man smiled and said, "I'm just impressed. We're all old, but he can still improve."
"Doesn't this prove we have good taste? We knew at first sight that this guy would become a superstar!"
Many people in the mall came to watch the performance. In addition to the music itself, the story hidden in the lyrics, which was presented to the audience through projection, was also very enjoyable for them.
"Helian Bei is indeed an actor. He even incorporates performance elements into his new songs!" someone joked.
"But don't you think this story is fascinating? Who would have thought that the murderer is the detective's assistant?"
"What a shame! If this were adapted into a short film, it would probably be even better!"
"Yeah, with a song this long now, a lot of things aren't fully covered, and I haven't seen enough!"
"Speaking of which, have you listened to the other songs in Helian Beixin's album? Are they of the same quality as 'The Seventh Chapter of the Night'?"
"I haven't bought it yet! But I'll definitely buy it when I get home tonight! I just realized that when the sound quality of this song goes up, everything I hear is different!"
Zhou Yiyang also discovered that after tonight's debut performance, the sales of the new album reached a small peak again.
What surprised him was that this time, the number of people buying physical albums exceeded the number of digital albums.
Bai Yangyu figured it out quickly:
"After all, it's Helian Bei's last album, and the quality is so good, it's definitely worth collecting. I even suspect some people might be thinking of selling it later when its value increases!"
Helian Bei, who had finished his performance, breathed a sigh of relief beside the piano only after he knew that the live camera was turned off.
This was his first time experiencing such a live performance.
But looking back now, Helian Bei feels very happy and it was worth it.
Helian Bei hummed the melody of the song and felt extremely grateful to Zhou Yiyang in his heart.
In fact, during the time when he was ill, Helian Bei's inner world was indeed quite dark.
This paranoid face is like a projection of his emotions at that time.
So every time Helian Bei sings the songs in it, he will have a different feeling.
When he found that he could talk about that experience without any scruples, he knew that he had already moved on from it.
He was grateful to Zhou Yiyang. Without him, he might have left this world.
Without him, there would be no such album.
It was then that Helian Bei opened his phone and searched for netizens' comments on his performance.
Not surprisingly, his performance received numerous praises.
On the second day, major music review agencies and critics also gave their own ratings for Helian Beixin's album.
"The average score is 9.8," Zhou Yiyang glanced at the push notification and took a sip of water in surprise. "It seems that everyone's evaluation is quite high!"
"It's more than just a low rating," Bai Yangyu walked over. "This is incredibly high! One magazine even said it's the best album in the past twenty years. What I'm most worried about now is whether Helian Bei will be overpraised."
"That's not the case," Zhou Yiyang smiled. "I think this evaluation is very pertinent. We deserve it. Next, our focus will shift to the back-to-school party. I will film them every day and give them three hours to practice singing."
Bai Yangyu hummed, "I'll keep an eye on the other artists, don't worry, Mr. Zhou."
"Thank you for your hard work recently," Zhou Yiyang patted Bai Yangyu's shoulder and asked, "Is Guan Fei about to give birth?"
"Well, the doctor said the due date is in the next few days." Bai Yangyu's face suddenly twisted into a frown: "I'm going to be a father soon? I'm not ready at all. I still feel like a child!"
"Well, a kid in his thirties!" Zhou Yiyang smiled and said, "Then you should give the work to your assistant these two days and concentrate on accompanying your wife."
Bai Yangyu thanked Zhou Yiyang.
Only then did Zhou Yiyang tidy up his clothes and take a car to the set.
