Why bother writing songs? Fast forward to the "Don't Laugh Challenge"

Chapter 100 What kind of Sanda? Magical Sanda! [45th update, please subscribe!]

The number of viewers in the live stream skyrocketed, quickly surpassing 20!

This time, it wasn't just Xia Shen's fans watching the live stream; Zhou Yumeng's fans were also increasingly mingling with Xia Shen's fans.

Soon, the comment section was filled with messages.

"Hello, have you joined the crew?"

"They're starting the broadcast now?"

"Is this the first broadcast after the official announcement?"

Xia Shen and Zhou Yumeng were also greeting the audience.

"Hello, viewers," Zhou Yumeng said.

Xia Shen answered the question: "Yes, we have already joined the production team. We are currently in the production team's studio, which was provided to us by the production team."

As he spoke, Xia Shen turned his phone's camera and took pictures of the surroundings.

The studio was unusually large, more like a large suite.

Besides the various musical instruments and recording equipment they are currently in, as well as the computer and turntable that Xia Shen uses to make songs, there are also two rooms and a bathroom in the studio.

It has to be said that Hunan TV is indeed very wealthy and powerful. The best thing about having capital involved is that, although many things are not so pure anymore, the conditions are indeed good.

As for whether it's pure or not, Xia Shen doesn't really care anymore.

There are many impure things nowadays, and many of them are unavoidable. It's not that impurity is necessarily bad.

As industry insiders, they cannot view the issue from a single, specific perspective; rather, they must consider it from multiple angles.

Because if we're talking about impurity, isn't he the most impure one?
Who could be less pure than he used to be?
Zhou Yumeng also answered some questions from netizens.

For example, the most crucial point that fans of both sides are most concerned about right now is the story between the two of them.

All sorts of questions arose, such as whether they were really childhood sweethearts.

For example, what interesting things they had done together, how they met, and so on.

Zhou Yumeng didn't hide anything about these issues.

She shared whatever she could, and that's how she told her fans the story between the two of them.

As Zhou Yumeng narrated, the popularity of the live stream soared, quickly reaching 40 online viewers.

Fans were quite moved by their story.

"It's really not easy. We've been together since school uniforms, and now we'll be together again in the future, and then we'll be together in wedding dresses."

"Mom, I believe in love again!"

"Actually, I also have a childhood sweetheart. When we were young, I didn't know any better and said that I would marry her when I grew up. It was a beautiful thing. Although we gradually drifted apart and lost touch, we still see each other every day, but we talk less and don't even say hello anymore."

"Just for that reason alone, I really admire you guys."

"Stop just telling stories, give us something real! Are there any details you can reveal in the program?"

Of course, besides listening to the stories, some fans also subtly asked them all sorts of questions about the show.

For example, you can share some inside information with them.

Xia Shen and Zhou Yumeng naturally avoided these questions.

Because it's true that we can't say, since they signed a confidentiality agreement with the production team.

Even starting the show before it begins is, in some ways, against regulations.

It's just that no one asks, and the production team won't say anything. It's the kind of thing that's 'not allowed in principle,' and if you ask, it's definitely not allowed.

However, no matter what, they certainly can't say anything carelessly.

So they pretended not to see those who asked about the program.

They could only answer one of these questions.

That's the information about the first song.

"Don't worry, the first song is already prepared," Xia Shen said.

The following songs will have themed limitations and more competitive elements.

However, the first song is something the contestants can decide for themselves; they can sing their own original songs without any specific theme restrictions.

They only answered that one question, avoiding all other questions. Over time, the fans naturally understood what was going on and stopped asking.

Then came another round of interaction, with one of Xia Shen's fans posing a thought-provoking question.

"Xia Shen used to sing during her live streams, and she would even freestyle and compose songs on the spot. Is she not doing that this time?"

This then sparked a chorus of agreement from Xia Shen and the others.

"Indeed, now that you mention it, I do remember singing during previous live streams, such as 'Love Debt' and 'Tang Dynasty Du Fu'."

"? No way, the songs Xia Shen sang on his live stream were all pretty abstract, frankly, pretty historical. Was he really singing them?"

"I have to say I'm actually quite interested. After not listening to Xia Shen's Tang songs for a while, I always felt something was off. When you know it's intentionally 'Tang' (a type of romantic song), it's different from those who are half-sweet and don't realize they're 'Tang'. It's quite interesting."

"I'm not afraid of the whole Tang Dynasty, but I'm afraid of half of it."

"Hurry up! Let's get started! Zhou Yumeng is here too, why don't we have her sing this time?"

"Isn't that a bit inappropriate? Zhou Yumeng is a legitimate singer; why would she sing something like this?"

"Has she never sung this before? Zhou Yumeng may not have sung it, but hasn't YuM sung it quite a few times?"

"Damn, that makes sense!"

Xia Shen twitched his lips, looked at Zhou Yumeng, and then at the camera: "This isn't good. Forget it, brothers, let's not do it this time. Besides, the competition is about to start, so it's better to focus on preparing for the competition."

However, Zhou Yumeng said, "No, I can do it!"

Xia Shen was taken aback, then looked again.

Surprisingly, Zhou Yumeng's eyes were practically glowing.

She was actually looking forward to it!
But thinking about it carefully, it does fit Zhou Yumeng's personality.

Zhou Yumeng: "Sometimes you have to be a little humorous in life, otherwise why be so serious? It's too tiring. And music doesn't have to be heavy and serious. It's okay to bring people happiness."

"."

Xia Shen was silent for a moment, then suddenly realized that it made a lot of sense.

That seems to be true!

When he was forced to make those market songs before, he didn't think much of it and was still pursuing high-quality productions.

But now that he has successfully achieved high-quality production, he is able to step onto a bigger stage and have more formal opportunities.

He discovered that he was actually quite happy when he sang those songs before.

"What?" Xia Shen asked Zhou Yumeng.

"Let's do it!" Zhou Yumeng nodded, giving an affirmative answer.

The fans in the live stream instantly erupted in cheers.

As for what kind of songs to play?

Xia Shen also had his own concerns.

After all, he still considered one issue: Zhou Yumeng was different from him, and he still had to consider some issues related to her image.

Therefore, we can't release songs that are unpleasant to listen to.

The level of abstraction can be slightly lighter, while also taking into account the listening experience.

As for what to sing?
Xia Shen thought for a moment, and then his eyes lit up.

Got it!

He looked at the camera with a mysterious smile and asked, "Have any of you heard of Sanda (Chinese kickboxing)?"

The comments section in the live stream was completely bewildered.

"?????"

"What Sanda?"

"Weren't we supposed to be singing? Weren't we supposed to be having fun? How did we end up talking about Sanda (Chinese kickboxing)?!"

Xia Shen smiled and replied, "What Sanda? It's magic-based Sanda!"
