The actors on stage are giving their all, but the audience below is completely unimpressed.
By this time, more than half of the audience had left, and the actors on stage were already used to it.
Li Wushuang had communicated with the opera troupe beforehand, and they were happy to leave the stage as soon as possible.
For them, coming here today is not for performing, but for a task assigned by the performing arts troupe.
When everyone had left the stage, Li Wushuang took the microphone and addressed the audience: "Hello everyone, I believe that those who can see this are all friends who like Canglan Opera. In recent years, Canglan Opera has indeed declined and is no longer accepted by the audience. We also need to look for the reasons within ourselves. So a few days ago, I specially asked my elder brother to write this song, 'Puppet Show,' and I hope everyone will like it!"
Few audience members listened to what Li Wushuang was saying.
However, many viewers were also attracted by Li Wushuang's appearance, so they only heard the gist of the story.
At this moment, Li Wushuang's music appeared on the screen behind him.
Puppet Show
Lyrics by: Li Tian
Composer: Li Tian
Singer: Li Wushuang
The audience members who noticed this were quite excited, as they hadn't expected such an unexpected surprise right before dinner.
Meanwhile, the audience who had just heard what Li Wushuang said were also surprised to learn that Li Tian was actually this person's older brother.
After all, they both shared the surname Li, which further confirmed that they hadn't misheard.
Li Wushuang on stage started singing along with the music. Fortunately, the opera singers left, but Li Wushuang kept the musicians behind.
"Whom are we mocking for their arrogance and conceit?"
How can two people be a good match without a heart?
The bell rang crisply
The lights were dim behind the curtains
You and I are a match made in heaven.
Losing you is the original sin.
Only those without hearts are a good match
Your rags, my painted face
Walking side by side through mountains and rivers
You look haggard, but I'll brighten your day.
You kissed the ink
Tears welled up in my eyes
For whom do we witness separations, reunions, encounters, sorrows, and joys?
They misunderstood in a roundabout way.
I am at your disposal.
Is there anything more perfect in this world?
Orchid fingers caress the mortal world like water
On the three-foot-high red platform, everything is sung and celebrated.
Singing of parting, the sorrow is long but not truly sorrowful.
The bright red areas turned gray.
May everyone remember the best years of their lives.
…
When the audience heard Li Wushuang's voice, they felt as if the memories that belonged to their genes were suddenly awakened.
Instantly, the eyes of all the audience members lit up.
Many people later realized that Li Tian was also the creator of this song, and they marveled at the versatility of Li Tian's musical style.
This traditional Chinese style song is so well written, and the person on stage sang it perfectly.
Especially the operatic singing style, which evokes many people's memories of Canglan Opera.
Soon the music ended, and Li Wushuang bowed in thanks before returning backstage.
However, the discussion about this traditional Chinese style song has only just begun.
Immediately afterward, people online tagged Li Tian, asking if he wrote the song.
Li Tian responded immediately.
Li Tian: Let me give a unified response. I did write the song "Puppet Show". Many people are unaware of this, so I'll explain here. My real name is Li Wutian, and I am the brother of Li Wushuang, the singer of "Puppet Show".
Li Tian's response also sparked a huge reaction online.
"Holy crap, this 'Puppet Show' is so good! You might call it opera, but it's not quite. You might call it pop music, but it has a more unique charm than pop music!"
"The person upstairs is right. This song is well-written and even better sung. I love it!"
"Let me tell you, not just anyone can sing this song with this feeling, not even professional singers!"
"I agree with that. Only someone with a background in traditional opera can bring out the charm of this song! It feels like it was tailor-made for my younger brother by Li Tian!"
"Hehe, did you guys notice? Li Tian's real name is Li Wutian, which means lawless, right?"
"Wu Tian? Wasn't Wu Tian arrested? Please don't compare my idol with that scumbag."
"What nonsense! It's not lawlessness, it's unparalleled! You don't understand anything, so don't mislead people!"
"That's right, the older brother is named Li Wutian, and the younger brother is named Li Wushuang. It's obvious that they are both unparalleled in the world!"
"According to your logic, Li Tian shouldn't be called Li Wutian, he should be called Li Tianxia, because he's unparalleled in the world!"
………
At this time, it was lunchtime and a break for the music festival.
Meng Wei hadn't come before because this time could be considered garbage time, with nothing worth paying attention to.
"Brother Wei, I listened to that song 'Puppet Show,' it has a very Canglan feel to it, and to be honest, it's really good!"
Meng Wei also became interested and said, "This kind of song is very suitable for Canglan. I think we should show it to the elders and let them see it!"
Wei Da understood Meng Wei's meaning: to see if he could extract the essence from it and create songs belonging to the Southern School.
"Brother Wei, to be honest, this kind of song isn't something just anyone can sing with that kind of feeling. I definitely couldn't!"
Although Meng Wei didn't hear it in person, he watched the video replay and felt that what Wei Da said made a lot of sense.
On the other side, Li Tian and his younger brother were also sitting together having lunch.
"You performed well, exceeding my expectations!" Li Tian praised.
"You wrote it so well! This song is really catchy! Bro, I think you should write more songs like this, instead of Cantonese songs or English songs!"
"Alright, eat your food. I know what I'm doing. This time, we'll make a name for ourselves with 'Puppet Show,' and things will be much easier from now on!"
