Luo Bingqing's voice bore a striking resemblance to that of a certain female singer from Zhou Yi's past life, and her high notes were equally exceptional, making her the perfect choice to sing this song.
The next day, Zhou Yi sent the demo of the song he had recorded to Luo Bingqing.
Luo Bingqing fell in love with it instantly, showering Zhou Yi with effusive praise and even making a special post on Weibo.
["Who received a song written by Teacher Zhou!? It's me, wuwuwu! I'm going to die of happiness! This song is super, super good~ My darlings can look forward to it~"]
As soon as Luo Bingqing posted this Weibo, it attracted many fans to leave comments.
Not only her own fans, but Zhou Yi's fans as well.
["Oh my god, what kind of dream collaboration is this? My favorite pianist and my favorite singer are working together?"]
["Brother Liyu isn't just a pianist, you know, he's also a singer. His songs are great too. Everyone is welcome to come hang out in the supertopic!"]
["Bingbing is so lucky. A song written by Zhou Yi probably won't be bad. Looking forward to it, hehehe."]
["I didn't manage to get tickets for Bingbing's concert. I'm heartbroken."]
["I heard Zhou Yi will be at this concert. Is that true?"]
["Ah? Then I missed out! Is it still possible to buy tickets now, wuwuwu?"]
The comment section under Luo Bingqing's post was generally harmonious, without too much nasty or chaotic talk.
Fortunately, Luo Bingqing seemed to treat Zhou Yi completely like a fan girl. Otherwise, with the typical fan circle mentality, Zhou Yi's female fans would probably have started hurling insults. Usually, when a female celebrity gets associated with a male celebrity, she almost always faces some online abuse from fans.
It's mostly fans feeling like the women are riding on their "brother's" popularity, or accusing them of seducing their "brother," completely disregarding the truth or how it might affect the relationship between the two parties.
Luo Bingqing had a good reputation, and her previous posts seemed to indicate that they were just friends. Coupled with her mostly fan-like attitude towards Zhou Yi, it didn't spark any negative public opinion.
Most of Zhou Yi's fans were asking if he would attend her concert; that was their main concern.
Luo Bingqing originally hadn't intended to publicly announce that Zhou Yi would be at her concert.
She didn't mean to ride on Zhou Yi's popularity or use him for hype, so initially, only a few of her top fans knew about it.
But then someone casually mentioned it in the comments, which sparked the discussion.
After getting Zhou Yi's consent, Luo Bingqing replied to the fans, telling them Zhou Yi would be a guest performer at her concert.
This got Zhou Yi's fans excited. Even if they had to go through scalpers, they were determined to buy tickets.
Some fans wanted to organize support activities for Zhou Yi. Even if they couldn't get into the concert, they could do promotions and fan support outside.
Zhou Yi wasn't even officially a male celebrity yet, but he was already starting to receive that kind of treatment.
Tickets for this concert were scalped at sky-high prices. Worried that Zhou Yi's fans couldn't get tickets, Luo Bingqing gave some to Zhou Yi to raffle off to his fans.
Ever since it was known that Zhou Yi would be a guest at Luo Bingqing's concert, Zhou Yi's Weibo comment section was filled with fan messages.
Some asked him to hold a fan meeting, others inquired about his schedule, some wanted to send him gifts, etc. The goal was simply to see Zhou Yi.
These are all very normal things in the entertainment industry, and Zhou Yi could understand.
He started a raffle with Luo Bingqing's concert tickets as the prize. The fans were thrilled, hoping to be the lucky ones.
In Zhou Yi's fan groups, the top fans also began organizing for this event.
["Zhou Yi's Dog: Feathers, the event is at the end of this month. Those who want to participate, sign up with me. Those preparing gifts, get them ready soon. Time is running out."]
["Love Yi Forever: I've written so many letters. I wish I could give them to him in person."]
["Feathers' Fan Girl: I've already bought my ticket to Huaihai! Ahhh, I'm so excited. Just thinking about seeing Liyu, I probably won't be able to sleep for days."]
["Yi: I'm so jealous of you all who got tickets, wuwuwu. I'm worried, what if he doesn't come out to see us?"]
["Zhou Yi's Dog: It's okay, I have an inside channel. I'll pass everyone's gifts and letters to him then. But I still hope he'll come out."]
["Keyboard Immortal: Don't worry, Brother Yi will come out to see you. He's not that aloof."]
"Keyboard Immortal" was the affectionate nickname Zhou Yi's fans had for Zhang Wu. As one of the few male fans, Zhang Wu's presence was quite special.
Coupled with his "impressive achievements," the fans were very curious about him.
["Little Feather: Will the Immortal be going? I want to see what Brother Liyu's male fans look like, hahaha."]
["Crazy Feather: Don't even say it, I'm curious too, haha. How many male fans will go this time? I'm quite looking forward to it."]
["Piano Sound: I'm a male fan, I signed up. I really like him. A truly deserving piano genius."]
["Standing for Liyu: I think there will be quite a few people this time. Someone in another group just said people from Brother Liyu's company are also going to show support."]
["Zhou Yi's Dog: Right, there are several top fans in the other group who are employees of Huanyu. They often post insider pictures. Once we go, we can add them on WeChat, and then we'll have access to first-hand news in the future."]
......
Zhou Yi had quite a few fan groups. Wu Ying, as a die-hard fan of Zhou Yi and an employee of Huanyu, was naturally regarded as a top fan.
Wu Ying and the top fans from several other groups did a rough count. The number of people planning to participate in this event actually exceeded ten thousand.
If it weren't for the fact that train tickets to Huaihai were sold out, there would probably have been even more people.
Because it was so close to the concert date, they couldn't buy tickets in advance; tickets for the past few days had long been sold out.
Besides Zhou Yi's fans, there were also Luo Bingqing's fans and other travelers, which led to tickets to Huaihai being completely sold out.
Hotels and inns near the Huaihai Stadium were fully booked, mostly by people coming for this concert.
Those who couldn't get hotels nearby stayed near Huanyu or Huai University, hoping to run into Zhou Yi.
Among these fans were some sasaeng fans. They entered Huai University trying to find Zhou Yi.
On the first day, Zhou Yi had no classes, so they didn't run into him.
On the second day, when Zhou Yi was going to class, they actually ran into each other.
Several female fans surrounded him. Seeing that Zhou Yi was even more handsome than in photos, they were beside themselves with excitement.
Zhou Yi was momentarily taken aback. He frowned, "Sorry, classmates, I need to get to class."
One of the girls actively explained their purpose, telling Zhou Yi that they were fans. Zhou Yi's expression softened slightly, but he still advised,
I don't want everyone to disturb my private life, especially here at the university. It affects others. Please disperse.
Fortunately, although these were sasaeng fans, they weren't the extremely crazy kind. Hearing that Zhou Yi was somewhat displeased, they apologized, took a few photos together, and left.
Among the group that came, one was a "zhangjie" (fan photographer). She originally wasn't a fan of Zhou Yi; she only came because photographing Zhou Yi could make money. But after seeing Zhou Yi's stunning looks, she genuinely became a fan.
with countless casualties. As a top-tier gamer, Liu Xuan volunteered to join the fight, intending to dominate with his skills, but instead he obtained the hidden class: [Pacifist]. Unable to attack. Unable to use active skills. Fortunately, with each level gained, he acquired a new passive skill. And so, armed with a body full of passives, Liu Xuan slaughtered his way through the battlefield of ten thousand races! [You attacked Liu Xuan] [You gained the debuffs: 'Poison', 'Fear', 'Burning', 'Bleeding', 'Freeze', 'Silence', etc.] [Your attack speed has been reduced by 99%] [Your armor and magic resistance have been reduced by 99%] Warriors of the Ten Thousand Races: How the hell am I supposed to fight this?!
e bizarre and supernatural had descended. The previous emperor was a thoroughgoing tyrant; no longer satisfied with human women, he had set his sights on a stunningly beautiful supernatural entity. He met his end in his bedchamber, drained of all his vital essence. As the legitimate eldest son and crown prince, Wang Hao was thus hastily enthroned, becoming the young emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty. No sooner had he awakened the "Imperial Sign-In Intelligence System" than he was assassinated by a Son of Destiny—a classic villain's opening. The Great Zhou, ravaged by the former emperor's excesses, was in national decline. The great families within its borders harbored their own treacherous schemes, martial sects began to defy the imperial court's decrees, and border armies, their pay and provisions in arrears, grumbled incessantly against the central government. Fortunately, the central capital was still held secure by the half-million Imperial Guards and fifty thousand Imperial Forest Army who obeyed the court's orders, along with the royal family's hidden reserves of power, barely managing to suppress the realm. As the Great Zhou's finances worsened and supernatural activities grew ever more frequent, the court sat atop a volcano. Ambitious plotters everywhere dreamed of overthrowing the dynasty, and even some reclusive ancient powers emerged, attempting to sway the tides of the world. At the first grand court assembly, the civil and military officials nearly came to blows, fighting tooth and nail over the allocation of fifty million taels of silver from the summer tax revenues. The spectacle opened Wang Hao's eyes—the Great Zhou's bureaucracy was not only corrupt but also martially proficient, a cabinet of all-rounders. Some officials even had the audacity to suggest the emperor release funds from the imperial privy purse to address the emergency. Wang Hao suddenly felt weary. Let it all burn.
grated, and just when he finally managed to get into an elite academy, he discovered that he actually had a system, and the way to earn rewards was extremely ridiculous. So for the sake of rewards, he had no choice but to start acting ridiculous as well. Su Cheng: "It's nothing but system quests after all." But later, what confused Su Cheng was that while he was already quite ridiculous, he never expected those serious characters to gradually become ridiculous too. And the way they looked at him became increasingly strange... (This synopsis doesn't do it justice, please read the full story)
saw a female celebrity tied up and stuffed in the trunk! Little did he know, countless cameras were aimed at him at this moment - this was a new type of reality show. The first randomly selected passerby was caught in less than an hour. But when Xu Moru was selected, things started to take an unexpected turn. "Damn, this isn't how the script goes. This Xu Moru is too bold, he's not following the rules at all." "Crap, is this guy taking it seriously?" "The female celebrity has been scared to tears!"
