The longed-for village system

Chapter 288 Just Roar and It's Over
Chen Qing was already used to Lao Wang's shamelessness. Knowing that he was the lucky star of their program, he was still treated this way, being stingy and miserly.

"Teacher He, Teacher Huang, Brother Chen, what are you talking to President Wang about? Why is he so excited?" Peng Peng continued to ask, he was too curious.

There must be some very important guest here, otherwise President Wang wouldn't be here like this. But this guest seems to be here because of Brother Chen, so they are curious. After all, Brother Chen hasn't been in this industry for long, and the biggest celebrities he's met seem to be Teacher He and Teacher Huang.

Although it's possible that Brother Bo is involved, the director didn't seem that excited when he came to the last farmers' aid gala, so they ruled him out. At the same time, they knew that this person's identity and status were probably even higher than Brother Bo's.

When Peng Peng asked questions and Zhang Yixin, Nazha, and the younger sister looked at them curiously, Teacher He, Teacher Huang, and Xiao Chen exchanged glances and smiled without revealing anything.

"Don't ask anymore, consider this a surprise! You'll find out who they are tonight. Now, focus on your practice!" After saying this to the group, Teacher Huang turned and went into the kitchen to get busy.

The group knew that there was no chance with Teacher Huang, but Teacher He was soft-hearted and they were sure they could find out the information if they begged him. So Peng Peng and the others started pestering Teacher He to ask for information, and it turned out that Teacher He actually secretly told them.

"Really? They're really coming?" Pengpeng asked, his face filled with excitement and disbelief.

Of course, Zhang Yixin, Gulnazar, and her sister were also greatly surprised. They had thought of many seniors, even Li Xuejian, but they never expected it to be those two. This was something they absolutely could not have imagined. Could it be that these two had put aside their past grievances? Does that mean they would have a chance to see the two of them collaborate on screen again?

Chen Qing is also practicing a new song and an old song. For the old song, he chose "An Ordinary Day," the theme song from the show "Longing for Life." For the new song, he decided to choose a rock song, since it's a concert and he can't get the audience hyped without a few explosive songs.

They ate dinner early, and after dinner, everyone headed to the venue. The stage was moved from the market to the open-air square, where they held their first charity gala for farmers. There was enough space there to accommodate two or three thousand people, and even if it was a bit crowded, four or five thousand people wouldn't be a problem.

By this time, the area around the venue was already surrounded by fans, who were just waiting for the villagers to open the gate and let them in. When the guests arrived, the venue instantly erupted into a sea of ​​cheers, with everyone shouting the names of their favorite stars. However, the shouts for Chen Qing were clearly the loudest.

After the group went on stage to get acquainted, they started talking to the staff about their upcoming arrangements. Chen Qing was helping to install the double keyboard, which the production team had brought from the Mushroom House. Apart from Chen Qing, no one else on site knew how to tune it, since very few people could play this instrument, and even fewer could tune it.

The show started at 7:30 pm while it was still light out. Hosted by He Jiong and Huang Lei, the other members of the Mushroom House, along with guests Gulnazar and Zhang Yixin, took to the stage. The fans in the audience were immediately overjoyed when they saw their idols appear.

At this moment, Stephen Chow and Uncle Da were watching the stage from the balcony on the second floor of the hotel, which was located to the northwest of the stage. Although they were a bit far away and could not see the faces clearly, it did not affect their viewing and listening. The two of them planned to go to the venue later, as the interactive segment would not start until the second half of the event.

The first performer was Chen Qing. As a regular MC on the show and a villager, he was fully qualified to be the opening guest. In fact, he was the most suitable among them.

When the fans at the scene saw Chen Qing take the stage first and immediately swarm the keyboard, it was clear that she was about to unleash a big move. The previously calmed enthusiasm erupted again, but they only temporarily stopped because of Chen Qing's intro.

The fans weren't surprised at all as the atmosphere shifted from extremely lively to completely still. It was a testament to their unspoken understanding, simply because their beloved Chen Ge was about to sing a new song.

"I didn't expect Xiao Chen to have such terrifying control. The whole venue went silent as soon as the song's intro started. It seems that the music scene is about to have another superstar."

"Xiao Chen is really amazing! He's going all out! I'm so curious how he learned his skills, he's incredible."

"Haha! This is probably what netizens mean by a life of cheating! Xiao Chen's cheating is a bit too much."

Chen Qing has already started singing the lyrics. This time, he is singing the new song "Chasing Dreams with a Pure Heart," which was the hit song of the band Gala in his previous life. It is a song about chasing dreams and also a rock song, which is extremely suitable for Chen Qing.

Where exactly is the world filled with flowers?
If it truly exists, I will definitely go there and stand atop the highest peak I desire.
It doesn't matter if it's a cliff or a steep slope.

When they first heard the song, everyone thought it was a song Chen Qing was singing to himself, because they all knew that Chen Qing was an orphan who faced the cold indifference of the world and that flowers and applause did not belong to him.

However, as soon as the second verse was sung, they immediately realized that this was a song about ideals, an inspirational song that encourages people to pursue their ideals.

I have never chosen to give up on my ideals.
Even on dusty and gritty days

Maybe I just don't have the talent.

But I have the innocence of dreams

I will prove it with my whole life

Maybe my hands are clumsy

But I am willing to keep exploring

Give your all in your youth and leave no regrets
When the song's rhythm faltered, everyone's hearts tightened. It wasn't that they were worried about Chen Qing making a mistake, but rather that they knew the climax of the song was coming. And Chen Qing didn't disappoint them; his screaming performance blew the entire audience away.

Running forward, facing cold stares and ridicule

How can you feel the vastness of life without going through hardships?
Destiny cannot make us kneel down and beg for mercy
Even if blood is spilled all over my arms

As one wave ended, another, even higher one, crashed in. This roaring singing gave everyone the illusion that Chen Qing might crack at any moment, but Chen Qing handled it perfectly.

Keep running with the pride of a child.

How can you see the sparkle of life if you don’t persist to the end?
It's better to burn than to linger

It will sprout again one day

The people from the Mushroom House on the side of the stage and Zhao Xiaogu all got goosebumps watching Chen Qing hysterically shouting in the center of the stage. They didn't expect Chen Qing to drop a bomb right at the beginning. Although the fans in the audience remained silent, they all knew that they were trying to restrain themselves. Once Chen Qing finished singing, he would definitely blow up the whole audience.

"This is my husband, he's so handsome and cool, I love him, I love him!" Zhao Xiaogu couldn't contain her emotions and confessed her love without caring about the cameras in front of her.

He Jiong and the others laughed warmly at Zhao Xiaogu's heartfelt confession. Although Nazha also smiled, her eyes were filled with envy as she looked at Zhao Xiaogu. How wonderful it would have been if she had come in the first episode! Perhaps she was the one being envied at that moment!
