…
Some netizens watched the video with great interest, while others fast-forwarded through it!
On the screen (bullet comments).
"Two fake faces, it looks so awkward! Damn it, it used to be just female celebrities getting plastic surgery, now men are getting it too!"
"Fast forward, fast forward, does anyone know at what minute and second Boss Hou appears?"
"Just keep watching, the singing is actually not bad!"
"Same here! Look at those two's noses and eyes, what kind of mess is that?!"
"The singer's voice sounds very affectionate, but the expression is so weird, like he has a blank face, giving the impression that he's lip-syncing! To be honest, singers really don't need to get plastic surgery!"
"Fast forward to 58 minutes and 23 seconds, Boss Hou makes his appearance!"
"Thanks, brother. You're a good guy!"
"Drag the progress bar!"

Luo Yang is an ordinary working man whose daily work hours are from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m.
I get one or two days off per month, and my salary is around 5,000 yuan.
After working for many years, he had become numb. He had dated a girlfriend from another province before, but they broke up because of the bride price.
It took him a long time to recover after that, and he didn't date again.
I don't know when it happened, but I've gotten used to being alone, used to being single.
After a long day, he habitually lay down on the bed to watch some music on Kuaishou before going to sleep!
But unexpectedly, I heard the background music for "Single Love Song"!
He then searched for the source of the song, started watching "Rising Star," and then he heard the whole song, "Single Love Song."
He lay in bed, but found that his tears were flowing uncontrollably!
I feel a lot of bitterness and sorrow in my heart, and I have no one to tell!
It also reminded me of my own deeply unforgettable relationship.
He didn't go to sleep until very late that night!
After that, he started watching the show "Rising Star" and waited to hear Hou Wenjie sing his second song.
Today, he got what he'd been waiting for.
In the video, Hou Wenjie made his unhurried entrance as usual, and then began to speak:
"Today, I'm bringing you a song called 'Love Transfer.' I hope this song can help those of you who are entangled in emotional turmoil to more calmly recognize your own hearts."
As he finished speaking, the intro to the song began.
The barrage of comments also took off.
"The intro is unsurprisingly good!"
"It's so gentle, I love this melody!"
"Unsurprisingly, a somewhat melancholic melody!"
…
After the intro finished, Hou Wenjie began to sing.
How many shop windows have I lingered by?
How many hotels have I stayed in?
Only then will you feel that the separation was not unjust.
Feelings are for browsing
Or for collection
So that every day can be unforgettable.
How long have we endured hardship?
How many eyes were wet?
Only then can one know that sadness is the legacy of love.
A few double beds
I've changed my faith several times
That's why they exchanged the rings without hesitation.
After hearing this part of the lyrics, the comments section completely erupted!
"Hotel, double bed, faith, is this the kind of song I can listen to without spending money? I love it!"
"Thinking back to the first episode, Goddess Jiang said that Boss Hou was heartbroken! Just hearing that part, is he really someone who has been heartbroken?"
"How many double beds have I wandered through?" This line is truly brilliant! What talent it takes to write lyrics like this!
I feel like I wouldn't dare use the phrase "wandering in a double bed" if I didn't have at least ten girlfriends!
It has to be a master, using the simplest lyrics to tell the most exciting stories!
I'm bowing down to this big shot!
"I feel sorry for the boss. It's tough being stranded in a double bed every day. No one can stand that. It's no wonder they separated!"
"I never expected that after singing 'Single Love Song' which made this single dog cry her eyes out, now they're singing 'Love Transfer,' which feels even more hurtful than 'Single Love Song'!"
I don't even have a girlfriend, I'm not qualified to sing this kind of song!
…
While Hou Wenjie was singing these lyrics, the director cleverly gave Jiang Xueshu, who was on the judges' panel, a close-up shot.
Jiang Xueshu's lips parted slightly, her eyes filled with confusion. Then, she gently shook her head and touched her face with her hand.
"Haha, give the director a bonus! I want all of Jiang's meme-worthy expressions!"
"I think we can capture the expression from when Goddess Jiang commented on Hou Wenjie's heartbreak, and make a five-emoji set!"
"Can't get through, huh? So many funny people! That's my goddess! By the way, send me a set of her emojis!"
…
At this point, Hou Wenjie had already sung the chorus of the first verse.
[The warmth of one person]
Transferred to another chest
Let the mistakes of the past inspire dreams.
Everyone is like this.
Experienced the thrill of being on tenterhooks
Only then did I refuse to be a lamb to the slaughter in love.
Memories are like moonlight that you can't grasp; if you hold them too tightly, they turn to darkness.
Waiting for the false silhouette to disappear into the clear sky
Sunlight flowed across my body
When all karmic obstacles are forgiven
Love Never Stops
Want to drive to the ends of the earth
How brave do you need to be?
After the chorus finished, the number of comments on the screen decreased for a moment.
"Now I understand where the big boss's aura comes from! Even if he's going to scum you, he'll scum you cleanly and clearly!"
My love hasn't disappeared, it's just been transferred!
My love won't stop here; it's going to the ends of the earth!
"This chorus is really good! The lyrics are also well written!"
I have to say, Hou's lyric-writing skills are amazing!
Sing the worst song with the most beautiful lyrics and the most heartfelt tone!
"I don't think he's a jerk. The chorus says he's a fake back view that will disappear on a sunny day!"
This is an attempt to persuade the girl to let go, and then it says that sunshine will dispel karmic obstacles and help the girl emerge from the shadows!
This guy is such a sweetheart!
…
After singing all the lyrics of the first verse, Hou Wenjie began to build up his emotions and sing the second verse.
Love is not a cozy dinner party.
The bed sheet was covered with flower petals
Embrace it and let it grow
It was too crowded, so we drove to another area.
Relationships need someone to take over.
Getting closer brings expectations
A vicious cycle of expectation leading to disappointment
The fleeting is always romantic.
Long periods of time will always leave you dissatisfied.
Burning away one's best years to find an old partner
…
The most beautiful ordinariness
As the song ended, Hou Wenjie had detached himself from the emotions of the song and stood calmly on the stage.
Jiang Xueshu spoke first, feeling that she could no longer maintain the persona the show had created for her.
Everything changed after Hou Wenjie sang "Love Transfer".
Thinking about the words he had confidently said in the first episode, Jiang Xueshu felt an urge to bang his head against the wall.
Suppressing his frustration, Jiang Xueshu asked:
"Can I ask about the background of this song's creation? I want to hear the truth!"
