How did this star become more popular after his scandal?

Chapter 140 I Like Your Eyes
Everyone looked at the song information displayed on the big screen behind Su Muwan, with surprise, joy, and excitement...

"Oh my god! What did I say just now? I said there's a high possibility that Jiang Yu would write a song for Su Muwan, and now it's happening!"

"I like you. Tsk tsk, why do I feel like Jiang Yu's song has a hidden meaning?"

"I think so too. Look, he was on the Haha Travel Band with Su Muwan before, and they wrote new songs. Now they're on this show together, singing while walking. Today, he wrote a song for Su Muwan called 'I Like You'. I can't even tell him off with this song title."

"Ahhh! No way, no way, my goddess is not going to be with Jiang Yu again... Shit!"

"Don't overthink it. What if they're just writing songs together? You guys just love to overthink things. Yeah, that must be the case, woooo!"

"Shh, don't talk. I'm here to listen to music. Although Jiang Yu has been a bit fickle, he's still pretty good at writing songs. This song I wrote for Su Muwan, "I Like You," feels pretty good."

……

Not only the audience was looking forward to Su Muwan's performance, but even the guests like Shen Hongyu were looking forward to it. And when they saw that the song Su Muwan was performing this time was composed by Jiang Yu, they were also a little shocked.

When we chatted earlier, Su Muwan had said she had no inspiration and complained about how difficult it was to write. Later, when asked if she had finished writing, Su Muwan, like Jiang Yu, said she wanted to keep it a secret and save it for today's performance to reveal it as a surprise.

But when I looked at it today, wow, it turned out that it was Jiang Yu who wrote a song for Su Muwan.

Although the program requirements didn't say partners couldn't help each other write songs, Jiang Yu had taken action. Everyone had seen Jiang Yu's current abilities. The song he wrote for Su Muwan was probably of high quality.

Shen Hongyu was a little envious. She herself wanted to ask Teacher Jiang Yu to help write a song. Alas!
Nowadays, many singers in the industry probably want to ask Jiang Yu to write songs. After all, every song Jiang Yu writes is a hit, whether he sings it himself or writes it for others to sing. He is a true hit maker.

Looking at her partner again, Shen Hongyu really didn't want to say anything more. She really wanted to replace Lin Yi. She was praying that when the next recording came around, Director Hu would change her partner so that she could partner with a guest. If that didn't work out, she felt that she could do it alone.

Director Hu looked at Su Muwan on the stage with a smile on his face. The song Jiang Yu wrote for her, hehe, and then there would be the song Jiang Yu would perform himself, as well as the song "Simple Love" that Jiang Yu sang that night.

There are three songs written by Jiang Yu in this episode. When it is broadcast, it will be a huge success, right?
The first episode will be online next week. Director Hu himself is looking forward to it and hopes to see the results as soon as possible.

Zhou Wen and Qian Qian stood there in silence. They hadn't seen the song Jiang Yu had written for Su Muwan yet, only the director knew about it. Qian also wanted to see how good the song Jiang Yu had written for her own Muwan was.

Although it shouldn't be too bad, the quality of the songs this guy writes now is indeed guaranteed.

But before hearing the song, no one can be 100% sure that the song is good.

and……

Sister Qian looked at the title of the song and fell into deep thought. She looked at Jiang Yu sitting in the audience, then looked at Su Muwan holding the microphone on the stage, and sighed softly...

On the stage, music slowly started playing and the voices of everyone discussing gradually died down.

As the prelude ended, Su Muwan's singing rang in everyone's ears.

"The drizzle and wind soaked the streets at dusk
Wiping off the rain, my eyes looked up for no reason

Looking at the lonely evening light

It’s that sad memory…”

When the invited audience from Hong Kong heard Su Muwan's singing, their eyes lit up.

"Cantonese song! It's actually a Cantonese song!"

The Hong Kong audience was quite excited. They hadn't expected that the song "Like You" Jiang Yu wrote for Su Muwan was actually in Cantonese. They had been a bit surprised to hear Lin Yi sing in Cantonese before. After all, this was in Hong Kong, and hearing songs in their native dialect naturally felt more familiar.

However, Lin Yi’s Cantonese song seemed just average before, but now, listening to Su Muwan’s Cantonese song, it makes people feel that it is pretty good.

Not sure yet, let’s listen further.

Even Lin Yi was a little surprised when he heard that Su Muwan was singing in Cantonese. The song that Jiang Yu wrote for Su Muwan was also in Cantonese.

But it sounds like that's all.

Lin Yi had a kind of blind confidence in his heart. He recalled the surprised look of the audience when he sang in Cantonese just now, and he guessed that they should be quite satisfied with his performance just now.

Although Jiang Yu was very good, Lin Yi felt that since he had sung the Cantonese song first, the Hong Kong audience would have a preconceived notion about his song, and he estimated that his song would be better in their minds.

"Once again, countless thoughts in my heart
The smile from the past is still on my face

I wish you would know now

This is what I say from the bottom of my heart..."

The Hong Kong audience who came to watch the performance were increasingly satisfied with Su Muwan's Cantonese song "Like You." Her Cantonese was very standard, and Jiang Yu's songwriting was also excellent.

As locals, they naturally have a sense of familiarity with Cantonese songs. This time, when listening to Su Muwan's singing of "Like You", everyone also compared it with the song sung by Lin Yi before, and indeed felt that Su Muwan's song was much better.

Whether it is the lyrics and music written by Jiang Yu or the singing by Su Muwan, they are both good.

And what surprised everyone the most was that Su Muwan's Cantonese was so standard, much better than Lin Yi's before.

Sister Qian listened to Su Muwan's singing, and there was a hint of surprise in her eyes.

"I didn't expect that the Cantonese song Jiang Yu wrote for Mu Wan was quite nice."

Sister Qian was also a little surprised. She had known that the song Jiang Yu wrote for Su Muwan was a Cantonese song. But she had never heard it, so no one knew the quality of the song. But now, after hearing the song, Sister Qian also thought it was good.

Looking at Jiang Yu who was sitting under the stage, this guy was really good at writing songs on the spot.

Even Director Hu and his crew were filled with surprise at this moment.

"I didn't expect that the Cantonese song written by Jiang Yu was so good, and Su Muwan's Cantonese singing was also good."

Director Hu was very satisfied with the song "Like You". The quality of the song written by Jiang Yu is indeed guaranteed, and Su Muwan's singing is also good, and her Cantonese is very standard.

Jiang Yu sat down below, listening to Su Muwan's singing, and was quite satisfied. Her Cantonese was indeed very standard, and the song was indeed suitable for Su Muwan to sing.

At this moment, Su Muwan was still singing on the stage, and she subconsciously looked at Jiang Yu, who was sitting in the first row. Their eyes met, and Jiang Yu smiled at Su Muwan, who looked away without a word.

"I like your charming eyes

Laughter is more charming

I wish I could caress you again
That cute face

Holding hands and talking in sleep

Like yesterday you and I..."

The song that Jiang Yu wrote for Su Muwan this time was Beyond's song "Like You", which was adapted and covered by G.E.M. The lyrics were written by Wong Ka Kui, and after being adapted and covered by G.E.M., it became a hit again.

"Like You" is a song written by Wong Ka Kui, the lead singer of the Beyond band, for his ex-girlfriend. Because Wong Ka Kui was focused on music all day and had no time to take care of her, she made a request: as long as Wong Ka Kui gave up music, she would follow him. In the end, Wong Ka Kui chose music.

This Cantonese song has been a favorite of Deng Ziqi's since childhood. As the only Hong Kong singer on the music variety show "I Am a Singer Season 2," she admitted she had to shoulder her responsibility and covered "Like You" on the show, demonstrating her support for Cantonese music. The song was so well-received that she later released a studio version.

This song later became one of Deng Ziqi's representative works.
I often complain about how hard it is to be free when I love her.
I wish you would know now

This is what I say from the bottom of my heart..."

Su Muwan's singing continued, and the Hong Kong audience was already very excited, waving their glow sticks to cheer her on.

They really like Su Muwan's Cantonese song, and they think it is the best song among all the guest performances so far.

After that, the chorus is repeated and the song gradually comes to an end.

"Every night I walk alone

It's so cold everywhere
In the past, I struggled for myself
Never knew her pain..."

The final chorus repeats and the song gradually comes to an end.

After listening to the song "I Like You" written by Jiang Yu for Su Muwan, everyone looked at Jiang Yu sitting in the first row.

Although this song is sung by Su Muwan, a girl, the lyrics sound like they were written from a boy's perspective, like a song a boy wrote for his girlfriend.

Coincidentally, this song was written by Jiang Yu for Su Muwan...

All of a sudden, everyone's eyes looked a little differently.

This guy Jiang Yu, is he secretly expressing his feelings to Su Muwan under the guise of writing songs?
Could it be that there really is something going on between these two and they are getting back together?
Everyone looked at Su Muwan who slowly walked off the stage, and then looked at Jiang Yu, feeling that this possibility was a bit high?
"Like you? Why does this song feel like it was written from a boy's perspective? Is it a song for girls?"

"What you're talking about is nonsense. Isn't this the song Jiang Yu wrote for Su Muwan? I guess this song is what Jiang Yu wants to say to Su Muwan."

"Hiss! That makes sense, but this song is indeed nice. Jiang Yu's writing is indeed of high quality, and Su Muwan's singing is also good."

"Ahhh! I'm really going to cry. Goddess, please don't get back together with Jiang Yu!"

……

The Hong Kong audience at the scene all felt that Jiang Yu's song "Like You" was written for Su Muwan. Many people even felt that Jiang Yu and Su Muwan were really having an affair. Once or twice would be fine, but how many times has it happened now?

When they appeared together on "Haha Travel Group" before, everyone thought it was just a coincidence, a work collision. Then, what happened? Jiang Yu wrote two new songs for Su Muwan? This time, the two appeared together again, as partners, and Jiang Yu wrote another song for Su Muwan with a suggestive title.

When all these situations are combined together, is it really just a coincidence?

Everyone thought that it was probably not the case. Moreover, after Su Muwan in the first row stepped down from the stage, she chatted happily with Jiang Yu, as if they had never broken up at all. This made people feel that something was wrong with the two of them.

Even if they haven't reunited yet, it's probably not far away.

At this moment, Director Hu, after watching Su Muwan's performance, could no longer hide the smile on his face.

He felt that the results of this second recording in Hong Kong would definitely be quite good.

"Oh, we won't see the first period results until next week. I can't wait."

Director Hu was getting really anxious. The first episode of "Walking and Singing" wouldn't air until next Saturday. In other words, he wouldn't be able to see the premiere results of his show until the next episode.

To be honest, I really can't wait. Director Hu was a little worried about the performance of his program before, but after recording two stations, seeing the performance of the guests, especially Jiang Yu, he felt that it was stable and the results should not be too bad.

Take Su Muwan's current performance, for example. Just the song "Like You" that Jiang Yu wrote for her is enough to be a hit. Fans of both Jiang Yu and Su Muwan will surely come to watch. Furthermore, the song title is quite suggestive: Jiang Yu wrote it for Su Muwan. Hehe, that's going to be a big hype.

After Su Muwan's performance, it was Shen Hongyu and Mao Yiming's turn. Both performed new songs this episode, and as talented vocalists, their abilities were undeniable. Of course, when it comes to song quality, Mao Yiming's creative ability is undoubtedly superior.

Although Shen Hongyu can compose, her talent is average, and she is only slightly better than singers like Su Muwan who are not born with the ability to compose. However, Mr. Mao Yiming, as a singer-songwriter, has strong creative ability.

Although both of their performances were wonderful, Jiang Yu felt that Mao Yiming's was more appealing. It wasn't that Shen Hongyu's performance was bad; there was nothing wrong with it, and her singing was solid. She lost because of the song.

Whether it's lyrics or music, Mao Yiming's songs are superior to Shen Hongyu's. There's no other way; that's the difference between a gifted singer-songwriter and an average singer-songwriter.

"Not bad, the songs of Teacher Mao and Teacher Shen are both pretty good."

"I prefer the songs written by Teacher Mao; they have more depth."

"Indeed, I also prefer Teacher Mao's songs. I feel his songs are better than those written by Teacher Shen Hongyu."

"This last one is Jiang Yu, right? He wrote a Cantonese song for Su Muwan. Will he also sing a Cantonese song later?"

"Who cares? I think the songs he writes are good anyway. I really like the new songs he released before. He is one of the few mainland Chinese male singers that I like."

……

The other guests had finished their performances, and now only Jiang Yu, who had been drawn by lot, had not yet performed on stage. The audience in Hong Kong were all focused on Jiang Yu, looking forward to his performance.

In Hong Kong, people are quite tolerant. Even after Jiang Yu's scandals, everyone here thought it was nothing, believing it was all due to Hong Kong culture and the entertainment industry. Hong Kong people are very open-minded. They considered the rumors about Jiang Yu, such as his multiple relationships, to be normal. Other negative news was simply fabricated, and since the law had cleared Jiang Yu of all charges, they didn't really care.

In the eyes of the public here, as long as you haven't committed a crime, it's acceptable. Furthermore, when people in Hong Kong like a star, they don't just like him as a person, or how handsome or beautiful he is. They value his talent and skills.

Just like the entertainment industry in Hong Kong back then, no matter if they were superstars or supporting actors, they were all very professional and good-looking. Otherwise, why was it so difficult to get into the Hong Kong entertainment industry back then?
In the eyes of Hong Kong audiences, Jiang Yu's affairs are not of much concern. Moreover, now that Jiang Yu is so talented and capable, people value his works more, and other things come second.

"Teacher Jiang Yu, it's your turn."

Li Xueyao looked at Teacher Jiang Yu, her eyes filled with anticipation for Teacher Jiang Yu's next performance.

Teacher Jiang Yu wrote such a high-quality song for Sister Mu Wan, so the song he will perform next shouldn’t be bad either, right?

As a songwriter, Li Xueyao admires talented people like Jiang Yu. Although she can write songs, it takes her a long time to write each one. She feels that creating a new song in just a few days on the show is already her limit.

But Jiang Yu is different. He seems to write songs as easily as eating. He can easily create a new song. And the songs he writes are always of high quality. He can even write several songs in just a few days of recording.

For example, during this recording in Hong Kong, we sang "Simple Love" that night, and "Like You" which I wrote for Sister Mu Wan today. Next, there is a new song that Mr. Jiang Yu will perform himself.

In just a few days, he came up with three new songs, which really amazed Li Xueyao.

If only I could write songs as fast as Mr. Jiang Yu and with such high quality. If that were the case, I would definitely have become a top songwriter in the industry.

The little girl thought so in her heart, but her eyes were looking expectantly at Jiang Yu who was slowly getting up.

Shen Hongyu and the others were also curiously watching Jiang Yu walk towards the stage step by step, and couldn't wait to hear Jiang Yu's next song.

"I wonder what kind of song Teacher Jiang Yu will bring this time?"

Shen Hongyu glanced at Su Muwan. Will Teacher Jiang Yu write another love song for Muwan?

At this moment on the stage, Jiang Yu was holding the microphone and greeting everyone in standard Cantonese.

"Hello, everyone in Hong Kong, I'm very happy to be here..."

"Next, I'll give you a Cantonese song, 'Boundless Oceans and Vast Skies'..."
