Qin Baichuan and Lin Tianxiong’s body started to tremble. Their eyes were filled with tears.
They both thought of the Warriors on the battlefield.
Every year, many Warriors would sacrifice themselves. They were still young, with family and loved ones. They too, had many things they missed, but they still chose to make the sacrifice.
‘That’s right. Who wants to be Superman? I just want to embrace my lover, but even that one small wish is too much.’
At the same time, their countrymen and the foreigners were listening as well.
Marvel was widely known and the listeners naturally knew who Spiderman, Ironman, and the likes were. They quickly immersed themselves into the song and felt moved by the emotions.
The song continued.
“I’ve been reading books of old,
“The legends and the myths,
“The testaments they told,
“The moon and its eclipse,
“And Superman unrolls,
“A suit before he lifts,
“But I’m not the kind of person that it fits.
“…”
Helpless and sorrowful.
Everyone had tears in their eyes.
Every country had its own legends about Superman and other heroes. However, they all had similar endings. Superman and those heroes would eventually die fighting!
‘Everyone was jealous of those abilities and had the will to fight, but…I did not…I just wanted a simple and happy life.’
“Just something I can turn to,
“Somebody I can kiss.
“I want something just like this.
“Oh I want something just like this.
“Oh I want something just like this.
“Oh I want something just like this.”
The song came to an end.
Everyone felt like they wanted more. They felt a rush from deep within their souls and were stuck in a daze for some time.
“This kid…is he singing it for those people?” Qin Baichuan wiped the tear from his eyes as he lamented.
Lin Tianxiong looked at his crippled left hand. “That’s what I want too, but…I can’t!”
“So many Warriors died with regrets. This song conveys all that!” Qin Baichuan stood up. “I will go to the Warrior’s Department and have everyone listen to this song.”
…
International music industry…
“This song…it’s incredible!”
“Is this really the work of a Chinese? It’s crazy good!”
“Scary. This Chinese person is too terrifying!”
“Masterpiece! It’s really a masterpiece! It’s undeniable.”
“This is unbelievable!”
Chinese music industry…
“Wow, Singer Y didn’t let us down. It’s amazing!”
“That’s right. Hahaha, this time the international music industry will be dumbstruck for sure.”
“Sigh, Singer Y’s song really leaves us in the dust. We’re already used to it. Fortunately for us, it’s an English song this time.”
“We’ll never dare to release a song on the same day with Singer Y anyways. It’s too scary.”
“Who would dare to? Singer Y gave us so much pressure. He’s finally bringing the trouble to the international scene now.”
…
On the international sites…
[Wonderful. Singer Y’s song is just too good!]
[Previous post, is that for real? Is it really that good?]
[It’s really amazing. I suggest you guys go give it a listen. I’m f*cking crying after listening to it.]
[I’m in tears too, sob sob sob. I’m playing it on repeat.]
[Damn, this song hits me right in the feels.]
[I just love superhero movies, especially those with a sad ending. The moment I heard this, I’ve been bawling like a baby.]
[There’s Ironman, Spiderman, and Superman. Damn, how did a Chinese person write such a song? It’s making me sh*t bricks.]
[It’s so wonderfully written. What a talented person. Would such a person need to plagiarize?]
[I originally planned to ignore this song because of the talk about plagiarism. Luckily I decided to listen to it in the end. I almost missed a gem.]
…
China’s Weibo…
[Ahhh, it’s so good! This is such a slap in the face!]
[I knew it! I knew it! Anything from Singer Y will be a masterpiece!]
[Damn it, can you imagine this? Singer Y can mass produce English songs as well.]
[Is this what talent looks like? What terrifying talent he has.]
[Even an English song can make me cry. Unbelievable!]
[Hahaha, I’m gonna jump the firewall just to one up those foreigners!]
[Me too! Especially at that dumb*ss named Dani. How dare he accuse our Singer Y of plagiarism. He should take a good look at himself.]
[There are so many foreigners, yet their songs are no match for us Chinese people. Hahaha, what a joke.]
[I need to brag and mock them. Don’t stop me…]
…
At the recording studio, Dani and George were listening to Ye Lingchen’s song. Their expression stiffened up and was replaced by a look of horror.
Dani was having cold sweat drip down from his forehead. He said through gritted teeth, “Impossible. How can this be? How can he write such a song?!”
“That’s just crazy. This guy is monstrous. He only had a week’s time. How did he write such a song?” George was muttering with the blood drained from his face.
In order to stand out with this new song, they put in way too much effort. Just the production of that song took them half a year’s time!
However, their provocations at Ye Lingchen and challenge was only just a week ago. He would have no time to make any preparations, but how was he able to write a song of this level?
Most importantly, he was a Chinese!
‘F*ck! This can’t be true!’
Dani was sweating bullets and trembling in fear. He shakily turned on the website. Lo and behold, his Weibo was a complete dumpster fire. Below it were countless disparaging comments from Chinese and people from his own country.
At that moment, the truth was out. Ye Lingchen’s strength was leagues beyond Dani. Dani’s claim of Ye Lingchen plagiarizing his work was no different than the person placing last claiming the first in the class copying his work.
[How shameless. What’s the point of plagiarizing?!]
[I’ve never seen someone so shameless before!]
[Dani, you’re the embarrassment of our country! I’m joining the haters now! Disgusting!]
[F*ck, you’ve brought shame to our country! F*ck you!]
[I used to believe you and sincerely thought someone plagiarized your work. I’ve even supported you. Sigh, what a slap to my face.]
[We’ve misunderstood Singer Y.]
[Hahaha, foreign friends, aren’t you surprised? Do you understand the strength that China has now?]
[Singer Y is the top dog of our Chinese music industry. No matter it being English or Chinese songs, he’s the best. Are you shaking in fear now? Hahaha…]
…
The comments were filled with disparaging remarks. Dani’s heart grew restless and hopeless as he continued reading the comments.Even the comments about his song were filled with insults. A lot of viewers went from liking it to loathing it!
‘Gone…I’m done for. This stain will be sufficient to get me banned. Even if I can avoid a ban, my reputation is in ruins.’
“W-w-what should we do?” Dani looked at George, trembling.
A ruthless look flashed in George’s eyes. “Do you really think this song is written by a Chinese? On what grounds can they write an English song? I don’t care if it’s authentic or not, we will claim that it’s faked!”
