Those passersby who were drawn in by Wang Yueheng's singing lingered, reluctant to leave.
"Yes, yes, I understand, boss, I'll go back right away..."
"Honey, don't wait for me, I have to work overtime tonight..."
Sun Huan, who was riding her electric bike home, received a call from her boss and had no choice but to turn around and head back to work.
As soon as he turned the car around, he saw Wang Yueheng's live performance projected on the mall's screen.
A series of unfamiliar yet beautiful melodies reached my ears.
"People like me who are lost and confused"
"People like me who are searching"
"Someone as mediocre as me"
"How many more people have you met...?"
The poignant lyrics instantly made Sun Huan release his right hand from the accelerator pedal of the electric scooter.
Turning my head to look at Wang Yueheng's performance on the big screen, I was captivated.
Then my vision started to blur.
This song is practically sung for myself...
After graduating from a top university, he worked in society for seven or eight years and is now a salesman.
My daily work involves constantly introducing and promoting products to customers, and continuously receiving brainwashing from the company.
The dream of becoming a high achiever upon graduating from university has long been shattered by the cruel and indifferent reality.
He has no connections or background, and he doesn't know how to give gifts or flatter, so even if he remains at the bottom of society, he will never amount to anything.
Despite working so hard all this time, I only earn four or five thousand a month.
After paying the down payment for the house, they lived in fear every month after getting married, not daring to have children or even buy a car.
He and his wife argue every day over trivial matters like firewood, rice, oil, salt, and household chores.
I don't know how much longer this oppressive and hopeless life will continue.
I used to think I was the best, but now I live such a humble and wretched life.
"Bubble Music..."
"Is this song only available on this software...?"
Stare at the text on the background of the screen.
Sun Huan immediately took out his phone and found the app in the store.
Click to download.
Unbeknownst to him, Sun Huan was moved by the song and wanted to listen to it repeatedly.
He had nowhere to release his stress.
I can only use Wang Yueheng's music as an outlet; when I'm sad, I listen to his songs and have a good cry...
At the same time, there are many people like Sun Huan who are at the bottom of the workplace.
They all downloaded the Bubble Music app on their phones just for one song.
What this society has no shortage of is people from the lower classes.
What we have no shortage of are the confused and aimless working masses.
Wang Yueheng's singing touched the deepest bitterness and helplessness in their hearts.
Jiangxi Provincial Satellite TV Studio.
In the audience seats.
Qi Tian and his family of three sat in an inconspicuous corner.
I learned that Wang Yueheng was going to hold a music gala on Jiangxi TV.
Qi Tian, who happened to be free recently, brought his wife and son to watch.
His son and wife have now become loyal fans of Wang Yueheng.
Even Qi Tian, who rarely listens to music.
I recently asked someone to help me download Wang Yueheng's songs "Wanjiang" and "Once Upon a Time" to my phone so I can listen to them whenever I have free time.
Since the last time this young singer left after performing at the police academy.
Qi Tian had always wanted to find an opportunity to hear Wang Yueheng sing live.
This time, the opportunity has finally arrived.
"Dad, what song is he singing? Why can't I understand it?"
When will he sing "The Lone Warrior"?
The son, Qi Hu, looked up and asked in confusion.
The little boy didn't understand the somewhat somber and sentimental song.
Qi Tian smiled and patted his son's head: "I hope you'll never understand this song in your life..."
With such a support, his son Qi Hu can at least avoid some detours in life.
Qi Tian also rose through the ranks from the bottom, and in his twenties, he experienced the confusion described in the song.
But ultimately, the cause of justice kept him going.
But Qi Tian also knew that people like him who achieved brilliant success and turned their lives around were ultimately a minority.
Moreover, even for oneself, there are times when one hopes to gain an advantage over fate and go further.
But that's often just wishful thinking.
Barring any unforeseen circumstances, his current position is basically the pinnacle of his career...
This often leaves him feeling lost.
The song "A Person Like Me" also untied the knot deep in Qi Tian's heart.
