139: The show's huge response

The host invited Chen Xiangbei and Zhang Chenchen onto the stage, and the few of them sat on the sofa prepared by the program team, facing the camera.

Then the host asked Chen Xiangbei questions one by one, which were collected from netizens online beforehand.

For example, questions like when he started singing, and if he had systematically and professionally studied music theory or singing techniques.

Chen Xiangbei answered truthfully, skillfully controlling what should and shouldn't be said.

There were also questions about the relationship between him and the sunny, handsome boys and bright, moving girls in the videos he posted.

Chen Xiangbei replied, "They are all my university classmates. The reason I let them appear in the videos is because we were on our graduation trip at the time, and I wanted to record that moment as a beautiful memory."

Another question everyone was most concerned about was why he chose Zhang Chenchen as his first collaboration partner.

When this question was asked, Zhang Chenchen also looked at Chen Xiangbei nervously. She was also curious why he chose her, as with his ability, many people must have extended invitations to him.

Chen Xiangbei paused and said, "Teacher Zhang Chenchen is a Singer I really like. I've been listening to her songs since I was in college."

"Her unique and story-filled voice once made me deeply infatuated. Sometimes, her singing would even touch my heart and make me cry, I was truly captivated!"

Upon hearing this, Zhang Chenchen felt delighted. Being praised and liked by such an excellent young man was also a unique kind of achievement.

The mid-session Q&A lasted for half an hour, and the host had to pause this segment to begin the second half of the performance.

Since they had applied for the copyrights of many songs, there were more songs that could be performed, so the program duration was also quite long.

At this time, the number of viewers in the live broadcast room had exceeded 18 million, and was about to reach the server's capacity limit!

The head of the live broadcast platform also urgently mobilized resources, adding several servers to the program team's live broadcast room to cope with the continuously increasing number of viewers.

This live broadcast was not only a huge success for Chen Xiangbei and Zhang Chenchen but also a moment of great gain for the program team and the live broadcast platform.

The second half arrived as scheduled.

As the second half of the program began, Chen Xiangbei took the stage first, igniting the atmosphere with a passionate song.

His magnetic voice and infectious performance captivated the audience.

Next, Zhang Chenchen took the stage alone, performing a gentle and moving song with her unique voice, like a clear spring flowing through people's hearts.

Subsequently, Chen Xiangbei returned to the stage, presenting a deeply emotional solo song. His voice was like a gentle spring breeze, softlyBlow by the audience's hearts, immersing them in his musical world.

Finally, Chen Xiangbei and Zhang Chenchen joined hands again, concluding the program perfectly with a romantic love song duet.

Their singing was filled with deep emotion, allowing the entire audience to feel the beauty of love.

Finally, Chen Xiangbei and Zhang Chenchen bowed deeply to the viewers on screen and the audience at the venue, thanking them for their company and support.

Then the two of them left the stage, leaving the rest of the wrap-up to the host.

During this time, the number of people in the live broadcast room broke through 20 million, reaching an unprecedented 26 million, breaking the records for both the music chart and the variety show chart on the short video platform!

The total revenue from live stream donations alone reached 5 million yuan. To retain popularity, the program team immediately announced that all live broadcast revenue would be donated to left-behind children in mountainous areas.

This action undoubtedly brought more positive energy to Chen Xiangbei personally and to the program team.

Tonight's perfect performance can be said to be the most successful and popular since the launch of the program “God-Given Voice”. Their viewership rating broke historical records, making them a clear first among all music variety shows.

The program director, Wang Jun, immediately had the finance department transfer 1 million yuan to Chen Xiangbei. He was willing to give an extra 500,000 yuan beyond the original 500,000 yuan contract.

This was his gratitude to Chen Xiangbei; without him, tonight's program would absolutely not have reached such a height.

As the program ended, the content of this live broadcast rapidly dominated the charts of major platforms, and it was all positive news.

Those trolls or paid internet commenters hired to smear them couldn't even lift their heads, being completely suppressed.

This fully demonstrated the influence of this performance and the extent of the audience's affection for Chen Xiangbei and Zhang Chenchen.

The online discussion was still ongoing, but Chen Xiangbei and Zhang Chenchen had already arrived at a small restaurant near the hotel, ordered a few small dishes, and were happily eating.

They didn't even go to the program team's celebration banquet; they took the money and ran away overnight.

Inside the small restaurant, Zhang Chenchen looked at him with a smile, as if the sunny young man sitting in front of her possessed a unique charm that deeply attracted her.

Being stared at by Zhang Chenchen like this, Chen Xiangbei felt a bit embarrassed. He opened his mouth and said, "I say, Teacher Zhang, can you please stop staring at me like that? It's quite awkward!"

Zhang Chenchen suddenly said seriously, "Don't call me Teacher Zhang. You can call me Chenchen or Xiao Chen!"

Chen Xiangbei was stunned for a moment, then replied, "Okay, okay, I'll listen to you, alright? Please stop staring at me, it's not like there are flowers on my face!"

"There's something on your face that's more attractive than flowers. What should I do if I can't control myself from looking?" Zhang Chenchen teased.

For some reason, ever since collaborating with Chen Xiangbei, she had returned to her appearance as that older sister from the North, completely losing the shyness she had when they first met yesterday. She even felt like teasing him a bit!

Chen Xiangbei was helpless. Just then, the waiter brought the dishes. He quickly diverted his attention, took the dishes from the waiter, placed them in front of Zhang Chenchen, and said.

"You haven't eaten much all day, you must be starving! Hurry and eat, this dish smells good, it should be quite tasty, try it quickly."

Saying that, he picked up his chopsticks and placed a piece of fish into her bowl.

Seeing the tender and juicy fish in her bowl, Zhang Chenchen's appetite was also greatly stimulated. She was indeed hungry after not eating for so long, so she started eating heartily.

They enjoyed the delicious food while chatting happily. From interesting anecdotes at work to little things in life, the topics kept changing, but were always filled with laughter.

Chen Xiangbei listened attentively as Zhang Chenchen spoke, occasionally interjecting a few words, his eyes full of tenderness and appreciation. Zhang Chenchen also responded with a smile, their gazes occasionally meeting, revealing a sense oftacit agreement and intimacy.

As time passed, their conversation became deeper, as if they had forgotten the world around them, leaving only each other's company and communication.
