Chapter 12: Handwritten Past
Today is the day for the second public performance!
After waiting for so long, it’s finally here!
Xiao Q checked his ticket for the second public performance, then began to check his backpack: cell phone, camera, power bank, transportation card, and support items such as light signs.
She checked again and again to make sure she hadn't left anything behind, but when she was about to close the zipper, she caught sight of a fan.
There was a cute □□ figure drawn on it, which was given to Shu Ming by her fans when they were waiting for the contestants of "Choose 1" to get off work.
She remembered the packet of cold medicine that Shu Ming handed her - yes, she was the girl on the forum who had been given cold medicine by Shu Ming because of a heat cold.
Do you want to bring it?
Little Q hesitated for a moment, looked around a little guiltily, and then stuffed the small fan into his schoolbag at lightning speed.
I patted my full schoolbag, which was filled with my own shopping.
When I thought about the fact that there were other contestant's things mixed in here... well, I felt even more guilty. What should I do?
Little Q clasped her hands together and muttered to herself: It’s not that she wants to climb the wall, it’s just that there is no portable fan at home.
It's really not that she is fickle and falls in love with another man QAQ
Although her favorite contestant is not very well-known in the show, he definitely has a large number of fans. She doesn't often hang out in the fan group, so she is not very familiar with many of her co-stars.
Xiao Q's home is quite far from the performance venue, so she left early and arrived early. When she entered the audience, there were relatively few fans gathered together, and everyone was chatting and talking in a relatively harmonious manner.
But soon, as more and more fans arrived, the taciturn Little Q was slowly pushed to the edge of the crowd.
Little Q is a bit timid by nature, and he was too embarrassed to pat someone on the shoulder and say, "Take me to play!"
After hesitating for a long time, I finally gave up.
What can be done? Little Q couldn't help but feel dejected.
She has graduated for many years and has been working for many years, but she can't change her personality even if she wants to!
The first person to notice Xiao Q was a big fan of Shu Ming named An An.
Firstly, Shu Ming doesn’t have many fans, and even fewer can get tickets and attend the second public performance.
An An has fewer people to take care of, so she can naturally devote extra energy to observing the surrounding situation.
Secondly, little Q was too conspicuous. She was surrounded by super excited little girls, but she was just like a little mushroom, squatting there, almost drawing a few circles in the corner.
Thirdly, Xiao Q is actually very familiar with them.
This little girl came to pick up Shu Ming from get off work several times, but each time she never got to carry the bag herself. As a result, she ended up hanging around among them to pick up Shu Ming from get off work. Even the small fan in Xiao Q's hand was a gift from An An!
Not only An An is familiar with Xiao Q, but the other book fans (Shu Ming fans) are also familiar with Xiao Q.
When girls have common hobbies and topics, it is natural to establish friendships quickly, not to mention that these book fans are the best of the best.
It only took a few seconds to coax little Q over!
As for some of the bad tastes that are meant to amuse people, ahem, there’s no need to mention that (quickly, quickly, put that i person down, that’s not your e person’s toy!)
Little Q was surrounded by a group of girls. Even though he was treated as a cute little pendant (not) (crossed out), he could only applaud and create a chat atmosphere, but he was secretly relieved in his heart.
Although she has a mild social anxiety disorder, she doesn't want to be isolated from everyone. It's just that she wants to talk to someone but has no one.
Finally, I don’t have to awkwardly pretend to be busy!
Thank you An An! An An is such a good person!
Perhaps it was this pretty good opening that set the main theme for today; perhaps it was because the weather was exceptionally sunny today, which also made people feel cheerful; or perhaps it was just a coincidence that the songs everyone chose for the first stage of the second public performance were quite cheerful.
The more Xiao Q listened, the happier she became, and the more she felt that this was her favorite live show in the past few years!
And this kind of happiness reached its peak on the next stage of Shu Ming group!
Following the usual mentor announcement, the stage darkened.
Xiao Q is actually a little looking forward to it.
Because Shu Ming works so hard, she also hopes that those who work hard can be rewarded, even if they are not her favorite contestants.
She was even more looking forward to what kind of surprise Shu Ming, who worked so hard, could bring to her.
The prelude begins.
Xiao Q is racing against time to adjust the screen of his mobile phone, trying to get the device into the most suitable state when the contestants officially start singing.
But just as she was skillfully adjusting the camera mode, her ears told her that something was wrong.
Something's not right... This prelude doesn't sound like a normal prelude...
Her intuition was frantically telling her: Look up quickly.
At the same time, what confirmed my intuition was the sudden cheers from the audience.
Xiao Q has two choices: should he debug the equipment first and try to record every minute and every second, or should he seize the time to look up at the stage and not miss any wonderful moments?
Is there any need to choose?
Xiao Q followed his intuition without hesitation, put down the phone he was adjusting halfway, and looked up!
She had to admit that this was the best decision she had ever made.
After all, seeing it with your own eyes and seeing it through a camera are two completely different concepts.
In front of her, under the spotlight of the stage, a boy in a white shirt was sitting on the steps of the stage, holding a guitar with great concentration.
Soft black hair and a pure face with almost no makeup.
And a light melody that, after being arranged, seemed a little complicated and poured out from his fingertips.
Together they form the first impression that this stage gives to everyone!
A refreshing feeling unique to summer comes to you!
Little Q was stunned for two seconds, then realized with astonishment - the prelude, the prelude was not the recorded accompaniment.
The prelude was actually played by Shu Ming himself!
Can Shu Ming also play the guitar?
As the guitar solo ends, the accompaniment slowly comes in——
Shu Ming, who had just finished the prelude, hugged his guitar, his long eyelashes drooping, and smiled a bit immaturely and shyly. But the slight fangs showing added a touch of youthful energy and cheerfulness to him.
Then, he raised his eyes, looked straight into the camera for two seconds without dodging or avoiding, and smiled slightly.
But these eyes are so clean, so clear that no one can take their eyes away.
A clear, spring-like gaze was magnified on the screen, catching everyone's eyes.
Little Q's heart is beating wildly!
The screams from the audience never stopped, but only grew louder.
On both sides of the stage, after Shao Geng and Shi Haozhi appeared on stage respectively, two more waves of enthusiasm were set off.
The three of them sat side by side on the steps, like a beautiful landscape.
If he were in a high school campus, Shu Ming would definitely be a boy that everyone likes.
The shirt is clean and has a slight smell of soap, and the smile is sunny and clean.
He could solve math problems that gave everyone a headache by just biting a pen, resting his head on his arm, and thinking for a while.
When he was explaining a problem to his deskmate, a group of people gathered around him, making it impossible to move around, but he didn't get angry at all. He just smiled a little bit cocky, but not annoyingly.
The boy from the next class called his name while holding a basketball. He responded from a distance. The summer breeze lifted the corner of the boy's clothes.
Such a pure taste of first love!
It feels like I’m instantly back in high school!
Those hands held cautiously under the loose school uniforms, those irritable cicadas chirping sounded in my ears again, and the boy I liked was still sitting in a corner of the classroom, waiting for me to pass by by pretending to be a coincidence, and I couldn't help but secretly glance at him again and again!
What’s even worse is that many people only realized the truth later.
The reason why Shu Ming's youthfulness is stronger and more touching than the others is entirely because he is not the kind of deliberately created youth character -
This kid is a genuine 17 or 18-year-old boy!
No matter how hard the other contestants try to create a youthful look, no matter how many people in the entertainment industry try their best to "paint their old cucumbers green", they are all inferior in the face of this real youthful feeling!
This kind of true unbridled arrogance in Shu Ming cannot be achieved no matter how much effort or disguise one puts in!
This is something that no amount of money or capital can create.
"Put the guitar on your shoulder."
"Just like many years ago, we sang softly--"
The song they chose is also very appealing.
It is a very classic song, and it happens to be the school memory of many fans at the scene.
As the familiar melody sounded, many people couldn't help but shed tears, waving their glow sticks and singing along loudly:
"I looked at your face and brushed the chords."
"Valentine's Day card, handwritten forever."
“I still remember the Plaza Park and performing together.”
"I still remember that autumn when we said goodbye."
"I buried you deep in my heart—"
The atmosphere is contagious.
Such a chorus is full of many people's youthful memories and is inevitably moving.
Xiao Q thought to herself that she really wasn’t attracted to this kind of youthful and sunny boy.
She prefers mature and handsome types, and is really not interested in little boys like this.
But in such an atmosphere, with such sincere emotions, my heart is really beating fast.
Through a hazy tearful look, she looked at the young man on the stage, as if looking at her own ordinary yet passionate girlhood.
————
If you were to ask, what does it mean for the idol stage to truly break the circle?
Do the millions of direct shots from Bilibili count?
Even if it doesn’t count.
Many passers-by who are not interested in the entertainment industry actually don’t really take the time to watch an idol star’s stage performance. It is probably only people in the industry who watch it.
What if it is a short video software that everyone is using?
Is it the tens of millions of likes and over 100 million views on this short video software?
Yes, Shu Ming's solo straight shot of the second public performance stage has received over 10 million likes on a certain short video software.
However, to everyone's surprise.
Shu Ming's straight shot is not a serious one.
