The song "The Actor" at the beginning stunned me with its portrayal of the aloof school be
Chapter 44 The sky is the color of rain and mist, and I am waiting for you.
The ribbons were still falling.
All the stage lights were focused on Jiang Che.
The host's voice still echoed throughout the venue.
"Let's congratulate Jiang Che once again!"
"To become the national champion of the first season of 'I Am a Singer-Songwriter'!"
boom!
The audience erupted in thunderous applause once again.
The audience seemed completely tireless.
They called it over and over again.
"Jiang Che!"
"Jiang Che!"
"Jiang Che!"
The sound waves surged one after another.
Even though the show was coming to an end, everyone was reluctant to leave their seats.
They witnessed the birth of a champion.
The champion emerged from the corner.
The champion emerged from a sea of doubts across the internet.
She started with the song "The Actor" and sang her way up to winning the championship with "Blue and White Porcelain".
The sense of participation is so strong.
It was so good that many viewers felt like they weren't watching the finale of a variety show.
They witnessed the beginning of a legend.
The host was still following the script and prompting for thank-you remarks.
Jiang Che took the microphone, looked at the densely packed audience below the stage, and bent down slightly.
Thank you everyone.
Thank you for listening to my songs.
"This championship belongs to me, and it also belongs to everyone who is willing to listen to the songs carefully."
The words fell.
Someone immediately shouted.
"Jiang Che! From now on, I'll only listen to your songs!"
"Jiang Shen! Release an album!"
"My wallet is ready!"
When is the autograph session?!
"Jiang Che, you should debut! Debut already!"
Jiang Che couldn't help but smile when he was called out.
Before he could answer, the host burst out laughing.
"It seems everyone is eagerly awaiting Jiang Che's official song release."
"However, before releasing the song, the production team has a little perk."
"We have prepared a champion's commemorative autograph board next to the exit tunnel tonight."
"Jiang Che will sign autographs for some of the audience members."
"Quantities are limited, please maintain order."
The host had barely finished speaking when...
The audience erupted in cheers.
"Aaaaaaah!"
"sign!"
"Damn! The production team finally did something decent today!"
"Go, sisters!"
"Nobody stop me! I need Jiang Che's autograph!"
"Hey guys in the front, stop running so fast! Are you trying to eat all by yourself?!"
The crew members were stunned by the noise.
They were just repeatedly reminding us to maintain order through our headsets.
As a result of the host's words, the audience area instantly turned into a massive atavism event.
In the director's room.
The director's lips twitched as he watched the monitor footage.
"Quickly, quickly, send a few more security guards over!"
"Shhh over the autograph area!"
"Don't let them devour Jiang Che!"
The staff member next to him nodded quickly.
They were genuinely afraid.
The current state of this group of audience members is nothing like that of ordinary audience members.
They look more like a troop of monkeys just released from the mountains.
On the stage.
Jiang Che looked at the commotion in the audience and couldn't help but laugh and cry.
Lu Xunzhou walked over to him and patted him on the shoulder.
"Champion's treatment."
Jiang Che laughed and said, "Teacher Lu must have been even more exaggerated than me before."
Lu Xunzhou thought about it carefully.
"I've never encountered a situation before where a live audience almost broke through security because of autographs."
"You've had an eye-opening day."
Jiang Che: "..."
That doesn't sound like something to be proud of at all.
......
Twenty minutes later.
Backend signature area.
A long line formed.
Jiang Che sat behind the long table, holding a pen in his hand.
On the table was a stack of commemorative cards for the champion, prepared in advance by the production team.
The card features a picture of him standing in the center of the stage for the play "Blue and White Porcelain".
Pale blue light.
Ink wash texture.
And his profile when he sings with his head down.
Just looking at this card, you can feel an indescribable sense of traditional Chinese aesthetics.
The first person to come up was a girl wearing glasses.
She held the commemorative card in both hands, her hands trembling violently.
"Jiang... Jiang Che, I really like you."
"I've been following you since 'The Actor'."
"I was in the live stream when you sang 'The Wind Rises'."
"Blue and White Porcelain is such a beautiful song."
I cried while listening to that.
Jiang Che took the card and bowed his head to sign it.
"Thanks."
Please listen to my songs more often in the future.
The girl's eyes immediately welled up with tears.
She took the autographed card as if it were a family heirloom, and stomped her feet twice in excitement.
Then she turned around and hugged her friend next to her.
"He spoke to me!"
"Jiang Che spoke to me!"
"I'm fulfilled! I'm fulfilled tonight!"
The audience members queuing behind them looked on with envy.
"I'm so envious I could cry!"
"Sister, calm down, hold the card steady, don't drop it!"
"Please let me say a few words to Jiang Che! Please!"
The second person to come up was a boy.
The boy looked at Jiang Che, his lips moved for a long time, and finally he managed to utter a sentence.
"Jiang Shen, I used to be a fan of Lu Xunzhou."
"Now I'm your fan too."
Jiang Che looked up and smiled.
"Teacher Lu is excellent."
The boy nodded immediately.
"Yes, Brother Zhou is excellent."
"But your performance of 'Blue and White Porcelain' today was absolutely amazing."
"I really voted for you."
"I feel that even if Zhou Ge lost, it was worth it."
Lu Xunzhou happened to pass by not far away.
He paused upon hearing those words.
She then glanced back at the male fan.
The male fan froze instantly.
He opened his mouth, as if he had been caught red-handed.
"Zhou...Brother Zhou."
Lu Xunzhou smiled and waved his hand.
"That was a good shot."
The male fan breathed a sigh of relief.
Jiang Che almost lost his composure.
The atmosphere at the scene immediately relaxed.
There were people behind them quietly recording with their phones.
"Hahaha! Brother Zhou personally vouches for a great vote!"
"Another memorable scene added to tonight's list!"
"Lu Xunzhou's fans switched their allegiance to Jiang Che, but Lu Xunzhou caught them red-handed!"
"This is hilarious, this generation of fans is all about honesty."
The signing lasted a long time.
Jiang Che's wrists were a little sore from signing in.
But everyone who got the autograph felt like they had won the lottery.
Some people carefully tucked the autographed card into their phone cases.
Some people took photos on the spot and posted them on their WeChat Moments.
Some people were so excited that they stuttered while speaking.
Another girl pulled out a thick notebook.
Jiang Che opened it and took a look.
It was covered with screenshots of his stage performances from every episode of his show.
From "The Wind Rises" in the corner to "Blue and White Porcelain" at the end.
She wrote her own thoughts on each page.
I cried during this episode.
"This time I started to believe that he could really win the championship."
"I've decided to support him forever from now on."
Jiang Che looked at the pages of notes, his fingers pausing slightly.
He had seen too many fans in his past life.
A stadium with a capacity of 10,000.
A sea of light signs.
The screams could blow the roof off.
But this was the first time he had clearly felt this after transmigrating to this world.
These people have truly accompanied him all the way.
Every song.
Every question.
Every twist and turn.
They are all here.
Jiang Che lowered his head and signed his name on the first page of the notebook.
He added another sentence.
Thank you for listening to the song so attentively.
Upon seeing these words, the girl instantly burst into tears.
She covered her mouth, unable to utter a word for a long time.
The people in line behind also quieted down for a few seconds.
Then someone whispered something.
"Jiang Che is really a good person."
This sentence was quickly picked up by those around him.
"He really respects his fans."
"He always bowed very earnestly."
"I used to follow celebrities just because of their looks, but now I follow Jiang Che because of his songs and because of him as a person."
"I hereby declare that Jiang Che will henceforth be my online brother."
"My own brother? I'm different, I want to be his sister-in-law."
"Get out of the building upstairs!"
Jiang Che smiled helplessly upon hearing this.
The fans laughed even harder.
......
at the same time.
The internet has completely exploded.
Eight of the top ten trending topics are related to Jiang Che.

Click on the first item.
The comment section was filled with countless praises.
"From being a cornered player to winning the championship, I thoroughly enjoyed watching it!"
"Finally, a new talent has emerged in the Chinese music scene!"
"Jiang Che isn't just a celebrity; he actually has real work to show for it."
"After the release of 'Blue and White Porcelain,' I felt that traditional Chinese culture was saved."
"People used to say that there was no hope for the Chinese music scene, but tonight I want to say that Jiang Che is the new hope."
"A new hope for the Chinese music scene, truly deserving of these six words."
"He's only a junior! Guys, he's only a junior!"
"He's already written 'Blue and White Porcelain' in his early twenties. I'm starting to look forward to him ten years from now."
A music critic published a long article overnight.
The title is extremely straightforward.
Jiang Che, a New Hope for the Chinese Music Scene
The article states:
"We haven't seen a newcomer like this in far too long."
"He doesn't rely on a persona or be pushed by capital."
"He relies on his works."
"From 'The Actor' to 'Blue and White Porcelain,' he has taken the path that a new musician can take to unimaginable heights."
"If he can maintain his creative momentum, a new golden age for the Chinese music scene may begin tonight."
This article was published in less than ten minutes.
The post was shared over 10,000 times.
The comments section was filled with approval.
"Well said!"
I like the phrase "new golden age".
"I used to think the music scene was lifeless, but Jiang Che's emergence really feels like an old tree sprouting new branches."
"The corner singer's rise to the top is just the beginning; he'll definitely become even more terrifying in the future."
"Putting everything else aside, his 'Blue and White Porcelain' is enough for him to brag about for a lifetime."
"The problem is he doesn't just have one 'Blue and White Porcelain' song! He has a whole bunch!"
"That's the most outrageous part!"
Major music forums were also in an uproar.
Professionals began frantically dismantling "Blue and White Porcelain".
Some people break down the pentatonic scale.
Someone dissected the character "惹" in three places.
Some people have analyzed the dual structure of porcelain and people in the lyrics.
Some people have even turned the imagery of the entire song into a single image.
The picture says...
Porcelain lines: body, glaze, color, pattern, kiln fire, and mist and rain.
Emotional storyline: waiting, longing, missing out, tenderness, fragility, unattainability.
Two lines unfold side by side.
Ultimately, it all boils down to one sentence.
"This is a story hidden in a small porcelain vase."
The comments section was completely speechless.
"After the cultured person finished explaining, all I, an illiterate person, could say was 'awesome.'"
"So it turns out that my tears weren't due to being pretentious, but because Jiang Che's writing was too harsh."
"Every sentence describes porcelain, every stroke describes people; this evaluation is truly brilliant."
"These are no longer ordinary lyrics; they are meticulous brushwork paintings."
"Jiang Che has truly brought traditional Chinese style to life in his writing."
Just then.
A verified account suddenly reposted a stage video of "Blue and White Porcelain".
The comment section paused for a moment after the account name was revealed.
Xu Wenshan, researcher of ancient ceramics at the National Museum of China, and expert in the restoration of Ru ware.
A short, single line of verification.
This immediately drew out countless netizens.
"Holy crap! Mr. Xu Wenshan?"
"The real expert has arrived!"
"This is a verified account of the National Museum of China; it's not a marketing account!"
"This person specializes in Song Dynasty Ru ware!"
"Wait a minute, are the Ru kiln experts also coming to see 'Blue and White Porcelain'?"
"Isn't this a bit scary?"
Xu Wenshan's repost was short.
But every sentence was like a carving knife striking porcelain, frighteningly precise.
He did not comment on Jiang Che's singing skills.
There was also no assessment of the song's commercial potential.
He focused on just one word.
The sky is waiting for mist and rain, and I am waiting for you.
Xu Wenshan wrote:
"This line is so accurate."
"Many people hear the color sky blue and just think it's beautiful."
"But those who truly understand porcelain know that sky blue is never just one color."
"It's a wait."
"The firing of Ru ware to achieve a sky-blue color requires extremely high standards for kiln temperature, glaze, and humidity."
"The higher the temperature, the darker the color."
"If the temperature drops even slightly, the glaze will turn grayish."
"If the humidity is not right, the atmosphere in the kiln will be unstable, and the final color will be difficult to achieve the clear and moist look of the sky after rain."
"The ancients did not have the instruments we have today, so they could not precisely control humidity, nor could they change the weather at will."
"They can only wait."
"Wait for the clouds to come down."
"Wait until the distant mountains darken."
"Wait until the moisture in the air gradually becomes heavier."
"Waiting for the storm to break."
"When the temperature, humidity, and kiln fire are all close to perfect at that moment."
"The potter must then immediately set up the fire and start the kiln."
"If you miss that moment, you'll have to keep waiting."
"Wait for the next rain."
"Wait for the next opportune moment."
"Therefore, the color of azure sky truly awaits the arrival of misty rain."
"This is more than just romance."
"This is also a real difficulty in porcelain firing."
Jiang Che wrote about this waiting as a lover's waiting.
"The porcelain craftsman waits for the misty rain, the singer waits for an old friend."
"The color of sky blue is hard to achieve, and the one you love is hard to find."
"A short sentence, yet it fully captures the essence of porcelain and the emotions it evokes."
"I would call this line the most beautiful stroke in the lyrics of Chinese-style songs in the last decade."
This comment came out as soon as it was published.
The entire internet was completely blown up.
The netizens who were originally discussing the pentatonic scale and the three instances of the word "惹" instantly turned their attention to this sentence.
"Holy crap?"
"So this is what 'the sky is blue waiting for the rain' means?"
"I thought it was just beautifully written!"
"Oh my god, I've got goosebumps!"
"The porcelain craftsman waits for the rain, Jiang Che and the others—this is absolutely brilliant!"
"I thought it was romantic when I first heard it, but after hearing the expert's explanation, I'm completely chilled."
"These aren't lyrics; they're incorporating the Ru ware firing technique into a love story!"
"I give up, I'm completely convinced."
"What's Jiang Che's educational level anyway? He's only a junior in college!"
"Who says traditional Chinese style is just about piling up ancient phrases? This is true traditional Chinese style!"
"This line of poetry is divine!"
"The sky is the color of rain after a storm, and I am waiting for you." Wow, now when I read that line again, it feels completely different!
Countless netizens began rewatching that segment.
Some people listened while reading Xu Wenshan's explanation.
Upon hearing that line again, those who had initially found it merely beautiful felt as if they had been struck in the heart.
That line is no longer just a hazy love poem in the misty rain of Jiangnan.
It has an added layer of weight.
It adds another layer of the craftsman's stubbornness in guarding the kiln fire and waiting for the right time.
It also added a layer of regret that her beloved had not yet returned.
The potter is waiting for a rain.
The person in the song is waiting for someone.
The azure sky, if left untouched by the right misty rain, cannot produce that warm, lustrous hue.
If a person waits for the right person but never gets to be with them, all that's left is regret.
This implication was revealed.
The entire artistic conception of "Blue and White Porcelain" is as if a second layer of veil has suddenly been lifted.
nice.
It's even more beautiful now.
