At the amusement park.
A stage had been set up on the south side of the venue. More and more people were gathering around.
The host was a young beauty. She wasn't particularly beautiful, but she was still quite good looking. Moreover, her voice sounded like that of a professional broadcaster. Zhang Ye was in this line of work, so he could tell just by smelling someone in the same industry. She had a beaming smile on her face as she raised the microphone and said, "Hello, parents and children. I am the host of Central Radio Children's Channel, Yuan Meng. You can call me Little Yuan or Little Meng."
There were actually people in the audience who knew her.
"Ah, Yuan Meng?"
"She's from Central Radio Children's Channel?"
"I know her!"
"Yeah, I've been listening to her show with my children every day!"
"I've only heard her voice in the past, but I didn't expect that Yuan Meng would look so good as well."
"What kind of event is this? Why is there a band and instruments? "
Everyone was very interested.
Yuan Meng smiled and said, "Right now, we're going to broadcast a special episode of June 1st Children's Day. The signal will be synchronized to the radio station." She looked at her watch and said, "We'll be starting in about 15 minutes, so I'll need everyone's cooperation. This episode's event is a singing competition. It can be children singing on stage or families as a group. We've invited a professional band to accompany everyone, and there will also be three teachers from the Central Conservatory of Music who will be giving out scores. Every participating family will receive a prize, and the top three winners will receive an even better prize. Everyone, please feel free to sign up."
The prizes were laid out at the back.
The three judges also waved to everyone.
"A singing competition?"
"There's even a prize?"
"Wow, it's going to be broadcast live?"
"Wow, it's going to be broadcast live?" "Are you serious?
Zhang Ye glanced at the equipment and the staff at the venue and knew that they were all genuine live broadcast equipment. He had worked in a radio station before, so of course he knew what they were.
Many of the children started screaming.
"It's Big Baby Bear!"
"Mommy, I want this!"
"Daddy, let's participate in the competition!"
"I want it too!"
"Alright, alright, let's participate!"
"Let's sign up!"
"Let's sign up too!"
"Can we really get broadcast live on the radio?"
"We can sing any song? Then I'll sign up too! "
The parents and children were very enthusiastic.
However, Zhang Ye was not very interested. Even if it was a live broadcast on a radio station, he had already appeared on a television station countless times. Furthermore, if a channel like Central TV Children's Channel wanted to invite a celebrity of Zhang Ye's caliber to host, they would have to pay him an appearance fee.
"Let's go." Zhang Ye called out to Chenchen.
However, Chenchen did not move a single step.
Zhang Ye turned around. "What are you doing?"
Chenchen raised her hand and pointed at the prize for first place. "Zhang Ye, I want that."
Zhang Ye nearly fainted. "Do you know what that is called?"
Chenchen nodded. "I know, Big Bear Baby."
The prizes were not bad. The first prize was a doll from a children's cartoon in this world. It was quite big and seemed to be a limited edition that could not be bought with money.
Zhang Ye wondered, "I thought you don't like watching cartoons anymore?"
Chenchen looked at the other children. They were all grabbing onto their parents' arms and acting like a spoiled child. Many of them wanted that limited edition bear cub.
Chenchen also tugged at Zhang Ye's arm. "Zhang Ye, I want this too."
Zhang Ye was amused. He laughed and said, "Why are you joining in the fun? You want it when others want it too?"
Chenchen nodded. "Win it for me!"
Zhang Ye glanced at her. "You know how to sing?"
"I do."
"Really?"
"But I don't sing well."
"Then I don't know how to sing!"
"… Oh, do you?"
"Hur, do I? Why are you so funny? What don't I know! But what's so interesting about this competition? Do you know how much my appearance fee is? If I don't sing a song, I can forget about it if I don't get paid at least one or two million. Do I have to risk my life for a stupid bear? "
This was not Zhang Ye bragging. He was indeed worth that much now.
Zhang Ye tugged at her. "Let's go."
Chenchen did not move. She looked at the pair of parents beside her.
A five-year-old girl was throwing a tantrum at her parents. "Daddy, Mommy, I want Big Bear! I want Big Bear! "
The father gave a wry smile. "But Daddy and Mommy don't sing well."
The little girl was almost in tears. "I don't care, I want Big Bear!"
The father clenched his teeth. "Alright, since my daughter has spoken, even if Daddy can't do it, I have to do it. I'll go and sign up!"
The little girl cheered. "Oh, long live Daddy!" She even gave her father a kiss on the cheek.
The mother patted the child's father and covered her mouth as she laughed. "Don't go up there and embarrass yourself."
The father thumped his chest. "For my daughter, I don't care if I embarrass myself!"
Chenchen looked at them without blinking.
The little girl noticed Chenchen's gaze and looked over curiously. "Big Sis, do you want Big Bear too? You can let your daddy participate in the competition. "She pointed at Zhang Ye.
Chenchen said, "I don't have a daddy."
The little girl exclaimed. "But everyone has a daddy."
Chenchen looked at her and said expressionlessly, "I don't."
When the parents heard that, they hurriedly pulled their daughter aside and said to the man in sunglasses standing beside Chenchen, "Sorry about that, sir. A child's words carry no harm. We're really sorry!"
Zhang Ye smiled. "It's fine."
The mother asked out of curiosity, "Who are the child's parents?"
Zhang Ye was silent for a moment, then whispered, "They've passed away."
The mother exclaimed, "Aiyo, look at me. I'm so sorry!"
Chenchen did not say a word.
Zhang Ye looked into her eyes and thought of her parentage. Suddenly, he felt his heart ache a little. He squatted down and said to Chenchen, "That Big Bear, do you really want it?"
Chenchen nodded. "Yes."
Zhang Ye snapped his fingers. "Alright." Then he stood up and said, "Even if I have to risk it all today, I will win Big Bear back for you!"
In an instant, this fellow's fighting spirit soared!
It was as if he had changed into a different person as he strode up to register!
A few minutes later.
The live broadcast began.
Yuan Meng stood onstage. "Hello everyone, this is Central Radio Children's Channel. I'm your host, Yuan Meng. I'm currently at Beijing Amusement Park, where a groundbreaking singing competition will be held soon. The number of registered contestants has already reached 13, so we're going to …"
At the same time, the broadcast also began.
...
At Zhang Ye's house.
His father was tidying up his room when he happened to find a radio from many years ago.
He asked, "Is there a battery in the house? Size five. "
His mother smacked her lips. "Why are you fiddling with it?"
Dad: "Take a look and see if it's good or bad. If it's bad, throw it away."
He adjusted a few channels.
Dad said, "It really can be used."
His mother suddenly said, "Wait, that station just now, Central TV Children's Radio? Live broadcast at Beijing Amusement Park? Didn't Little Ye bring Chenchen over there? A singing competition? "
Dad turned up the volume a little louder. "Listen! Do you think Little Ye and Chenchen will participate? "
His mother pursed her lips. "Our son has a terrible voice. How could he sing?"
…
At the venue.
The first family had already appeared.
"Little rabbit, be good."
"Open the door."
"No, no, I won't open it."
This was a nursery rhyme from a fairy tale that Zhang Ye had previously played on the radio. At that time, it had caused quite a stir and many people knew how to sing it.
This family's singing was average, but they still won a lot of applause!
The three teachers of the Central Academy of Music also smiled and applauded.
Then came the second group.
The third group.
The father of the little girl who had spoken to Chenchen earlier was from the seventh group. When he got on stage, he was very nervous. His hand that was holding the microphone was trembling. After all, this was a live broadcast on the radio. No one present had experienced something like this before. Almost every group's family had the same reaction when they got on stage.
The little girl shouted, "Daddy, you can do it! Daddy, you can do it! "
But when he heard his daughter's voice, the father straightened his back and picked up the microphone. With the accompaniment of the band, he sang a nursery rhyme.
He sang very poorly.
It was even off-key.
But the little girl kept clapping her hands and shouting, "Daddy is the best!" She held her mother's hand and said, "Mommy, Daddy is the best!"
Her mother smiled and said, "Right, your daddy is the best."
Chenchen looked at the little girl and her parents without saying a word.
Zhang Ye could not stand watching this and deliberately patted Chenchen on the head. "It's my turn. Haha, watch me."
Chenchen looked at him. "Can you do it?"
Zhang Ye laughed heartily. "Just watch."
Yuan Meng looked offstage. "Let's welcome the eighth group's contestant onto the stage."
Zhang Ye pulled Chenchen to the seat closest to the stage before letting go of her hand. He walked onstage with a smile on his face. When many people saw his getup, they looked at him strangely. Who would wear a mask and glasses in the middle of summer?
Yuan Meng also gave him a glance and passed the microphone to him.
A few of the band's teachers asked him, "What are you going to sing?"
Zhang Ye took off his mask. "Just give me a rhythm." He went over to communicate with them and explained what he needed to do.
The band members were actually not very professional, so they felt a little dizzy when they heard him.
What do you mean?
You want to sing an original song?
Who do you think you are?
Chenchen looked at Zhang Ye onstage.
Beside her, a small hand tugged at her. "Is that your daddy?"
Chenchen turned her head and saw that it was still the little girl from before. She said, "No."
Someone in the audience stared at the sunglasses-wearing youth onstage.
"Eh?"
"What's the matter?"
"This person looks really familiar!"
"Ah, it's really him!"
Everything was ready.
Zhang Ye stood there and thought back to the time when he did not know how to sing. He cleared his throat and deliberately sounded different from The Clown's. Then he saw Chenchen looking at him and felt his heart ache again. Chenchen, don't be sad. Your parents are no longer around, but don't you still have your aunt? Don't you still have me? I'm not your daddy, and I don't know how to be a father. I really don't know, but I can promise you one thing. As long as you need me, I'll definitely be by your side!
Trust me!
I'll definitely be there!
So, be happy!
The music started playing!
The folk music accompaniment started playing!
Zhang Ye raised the microphone. The moment he opened his mouth, he stunned everyone.
"The sun winks at me." He looked at Chenchen and rubbed his eyes!
"The birds sing to me. I'm a hardworking, non-clingy little goblin!" He pointed to his chest.
Everyone was stunned.
What song was this?
What song was this?
An original? Did you write it yourself?
The host, Yuan Meng, was also stunned!
Zhang Ye walked to the front of the stage. He reached into a flower basket and plucked a flower.
"Don't ask me where I came from.
"And don't ask me where I'm going.
"I'm going to pluck the prettiest flower.
"To my little princess!"
He bent down and placed the flower on Chenchen's head. Then he pulled Chenchen onto the stage. He bent down and used an astonishing amount of strength to prop Chenchen onto his left shoulder.
Chenchen was stunned!
Zhang Ye laughed and said loudly:
"Aiyo, I almost forgot!
"The king sent me to patrol the mountains.
"Let me take a spin around the human realm.
"Beat my drum."
"Strike my gong."
"Life is full of rhythms.
"The king sent me to patrol the mountains.
"Catch a monk to make dinner.
"This mountain stream's water is incomparably sweet. I don't envy mandarin ducks or immortals!"
Instantly, the entire venue erupted in cheers!
The children were excited!
The parents were also mesmerized by the song!
It was so good!
This song was so good!
The three judges were dumbfounded!
The band's accompanist was also dumbfounded!
Damn, this is just a children's entertainment singing competition. What kind of song is this? Isn't this song too fucking professional?
…
Back at home.
His mother said in surprise, "Eh, eh, eh, this voice?"
His father said in surprise, "It's our son's?"
His mother exclaimed, "He really brought Chenchen up to the stage?"
…
At a music production company.
A department manager happened to be idle in his office with the radio on. Suddenly, this song came out. He and another assistant manager in the office were stunned!
"This song?"
"Who is this?"
"It doesn't sound like much, but this song …"
"Have you heard it before? What song is this? "
"I've never heard of it before. Is it an original?"
…
At the venue.
Zhang Ye raised the microphone and brought it to Chenchen's mouth. He knew that Chenchen was very smart.
Chenchen looked at him and clumsily said, "The sun winks at me, and the birds sing to me."
Zhang Ye took it from her and laughed, "I'm a hardworking and unclingy little fairy!
"Don't ask me where I'm from.
"And don't ask me where I'm going.
"I want to pluck the prettiest flower.
"To dedicate it to my little princess!"
Saying that, Zhang Ye plucked another flower and placed it on Chenchen's head!
Chenchen suddenly smiled.
She was smiling very happily.
This was the first time Zhang Ye had seen her smile like this. It was really the first time!
When this fellow saw this, she sang even more excitedly. As she sang, she even jumped up and down playfully. The way she shook her head was very funny.
It was clearly very funny, but the parents of the little girl who was in the audience could not bring themselves to laugh no matter what. Knowing that the young man in sunglasses was not the girl's father and that the girl's parents had passed away, for some reason, their eyes turned red. They did not even know where the tears were coming from!
They were a little touched!
But most of it was admiration!
Zhang Ye shook Chenchen, who was on his shoulder, and sang with a laugh.
"The king has sent me to patrol the mountains.
"Let me take a spin around the world."
Chenchen also sang along with him.
"Beat my drum."
"Strike my gong."
"Life is full of rhythm.
"The king has sent me to patrol the mountains.
"Catch a monk to make dinner.
"This mountain stream's water is incomparably sweet. I don't envy the mandarin ducks or the immortals!"
Applause rang out!
Cheers erupted!
This song had brought the entire audience to their feet!
This was not a nursery rhyme. At least, it was definitely not a simple nursery rhyme for children. It contained too much unconditional love between family members. Even many of the adults were influenced by it!
