With just a few casual words, I've swept the music scene.

"The carousel has no wings, but it can carry you everywhere. When the music stops, you will leave, and that's all I can do..."

This song doesn't depict heart-wrenching separations or death scenes, nor will it bring tears to your eyes on the spot. However, it possesses a quiet power that slowly seeps into people's hearts and lingers for a long time.

When listeners calm down and savor the song, a touch of bittersweet sadness will inevitably well up in their hearts.

Whether it's the struggle for survival in the world or the grudges and separations in love, who among us isn't a carousel horse that wears a glamorous exterior, bathed in dazzling lights, seemingly enjoying boundless glory, but is actually firmly locked in place, unable to leave for even a moment, and ultimately unable to gain freedom?

When the music stops, the laughing horseman will leave, but what about the wooden horse?

The lights went out, the music stopped, and the crowd dispersed.

The wooden horse could only stand there alone, waiting quietly, day after day, night after night.

Even when it's running under the lights, it's just spinning in circles...

"Carousel" is such a long-lasting wound, such a lingering pain.

Even just thinking about it fills me with sadness!

As the song ended, the audience waved wildly and shouted Lin Qianyu's name, reluctant to let her leave.

Lin Qianyu stood on the stage, bowed slightly to all directions to express her gratitude, and then raised the microphone: "I know that no one wants the music to stop, and no one wants to leave now."

"Yes, don't stop!"

"Little Feather, we want to hear you sing again!"

"Master Yu, don't go! We will always stay by your side!"

The audience shouted loudly.

"Then I'll sing another new song for everyone," Lin Qianyu said with a smile.

"Ah! Great!"

"Long live Little Feather!"

Amid the excited shouts of the audience, Lin Qianyu turned around and nodded gently to the band.

"A song called 'Human World' is dedicated to everyone!"

"After the storm, there isn't always a clear sky, and sunshine doesn't always bring a rainbow. So your innocent look doesn't mean you're clueless..."

The upbeat rhythm contrasts sharply with the somewhat somber lyrics, instantly captivating listeners.

It constantly tells you in a lighthearted tone that this is how the world is: not everything has a beginning and an end, not everything you give will be rewarded, and not all good things are destined to last forever.

But at least you still have me, I want you to only see smiles, and I only wish you to be cared for and loved.

"If heaven and earth are truly worthy of praise, it's because of you that they've become so bustling. The world is vast, more mysterious than you imagine, and I can no longer bear to deceive you. I hope you can understand!"

No matter how cruel the world is, no matter how hard the struggles of life are, as long as you are here, all of this is worth celebrating!

I won't deceive you; I will tell you the whole truth. But I don't want you to be pessimistic or disappointed. Instead, I want you to ignite more love and embrace a more worthwhile life after you understand everything!

Sincerity is always more touching than any skill. Faced with this sincere song, all the audience members let down their guard and couldn't help but wave their hands along with the song.

Another classic hit has been released!

When the song ended, the audience went wild again!

Lin Qianyu looked at the audience, tears of emotion welling up in her eyes.

Although she has been famous for a long time compared to her colleagues, it was also her first time stepping onto such a big stage and facing so many audience members.

Hearing the cheers and applause of tens of thousands of people, I recalled that first night, the city nightscape, that rooftop, and that sudden question...

How could she not have tears in her eyes?

"No matter how long the reunion lasts, we must eventually part ways..." she said, her voice choked with emotion.

"No! Little Feather, don't go!"

"We haven't heard enough, stay!"

The audience shouted excitedly.

"This is the human world," Lin Qianyu said. "Where there is gathering, there is separation, and the so-called 'goodbye' naturally means that we will meet again! Tonight, let me make a promise with everyone—in the not-too-distant future, we will gather again under this starry sky, waving our arms and singing songs together, praising this beautiful human world!"

"A song called 'The Promise' is dedicated to everyone!"

"The distant bells echoed in the rain, and we listened hand in hand under the eaves, imagining that the wedding inside the church was held to bless us..."

"The Promise" is also a song by Faye Wong, but it is a Cantonese song. The version sung by Lin Qianyu at this time is the Mandarin version of "The Promise" that Zhou Hui later covered.

The Cantonese version of "The Promise" carries a hint of sadness, but the Mandarin version brings out a touch of sweetness. The lyrics begin with a wedding and then tell the story of the vows between lovers, which is very touching and brings people into a sweet mood.

Because of the melody, this sweetness is tinged with an inexplicable, mysterious sadness, which makes the song even more captivating.

Who can resist a song like this?

nobody!

"We agreed that if we ever argued, we would stop quickly. We also agreed that we would have no secrets from each other and be completely transparent with one another. I will love you well, love you foolishly, and not care about fairness."

Countless people are captivated by this song, unable to help but project themselves into its story.

Many couples couldn't help but look at their partners and quietly tighten their grip on each other's hands.

"Shall we do the same? No bringing up painful memories that hurt each other, no hiding secrets or deceiving each other, just loving each other wholeheartedly?"

"Definitely! I will love you foolishly for a lifetime, just like the song says!"

In no time, countless couples regarded this song as their signature tune, and would remember it for a lifetime!

After the song ended, Lin Qianyu bowed in thanks and decisively left the stage, while cheers and applause rang out in the stadium for a long time.

Secretary Ding looked at everything before her and excitedly grabbed Wang Ke's hand.

Wang Ke was startled: "Secretary Ding, are you so engrossed in the music that you're going to do something? But if you're going to hold hands, you should at least hold a girl's hand, right? We're both grown men, we can't make any promises like that!"

Secretary Ding laughed in exasperation: "President Fan, you really know how to ruin the mood! I think this music festival is destined to shock the whole country, we've succeeded!"

Wang Ke chuckled: "You scared me! I thought Secretary Ding's orientation was unusual!"

Everyone around burst into laughter. Secretary Ding let go of his hand and jokingly cursed.

Yu Zhifei then handed over his phone: "Take a look, everyone. From 'Swords Like Dreams' to 'The Promise,' every time Fanfu Culture releases a new song, there's another trending topic online. Now the entire trending list is dominated by songs from Fanfu Culture!"

"CEO, you're amazing!" Wang Lei exclaimed excitedly.

Wang Ke smiled and shook his head: "How can you say I'm awesome? It's clearly our Linhai Music Festival that's awesome, it's clearly our Linhai Music Festival that's dominating the trending topics!"

"Mr. Fan is right." Secretary Ding nodded. "Linhai needs outstanding companies like Fanfu Culture, and it needs talented people like Mr. Fan who are willing to share the glory and hardship of their hometown! This success is not only a success for Fanfu Culture, but also a success for Linhai. The Linhai Municipal Government will never forget the contributions Fanfu Culture has made to its hometown!"

Then his tone changed, turning icy: "And we will never forget those unscrupulous people who forget their roots and pursue profit!"
