217: Solo concert

Lu Shijie took the stage again and said loudly, "We are now entering the donation segment to support the front lines. We have set up ten donation boxes around the stage. Please donate what you can; there's no need to exceed your personal means. As long as the sentiment is there, it's enough. I believe that as long as everyone in Great Ming contributes their modest effort, we will surely be able to support our front-line soldiers in their heroic fight, allowing them to serve without worries! Thank you for your understanding and cooperation!"

"I'll go first!"

"Me too, let me go!"

"Everyone, don't rush. You can donate throughout the performances..."

"Line up, line up..."

"That's right, we can line up to donate while watching the show..."

As soon as Lu Shijie finished speaking, ten long queues formed below the stage. Everyone reminded each other to maintain order as they proceeded with the donations... Seeing this scene, Lu Shijie was quite satisfied. He nodded and said, "While you participate in the donation activity, please enjoy the performance by the Fengyang Qin Family's Fengqing Company!"

This segment was specially arranged for the Qin Family. After all, they had invested a lot of capital for this event, but the chance to potentially show their faces to the entire nation was a total bargain. Thus, Qin Fu Yi brought several high-quality programs from the Qin Family, performing them one after another... Ni Ni and other Qin Family performers seized this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to perform with all their might, which earned the Fengqing Company many impression points. This made it possible for the Fengqing Company's name to spread beyond Fengyang and become known to more people in Great Ming!

Qin Fu Yi watched from below the stage with extreme excitement. He felt that the Qin Family had truly seized the opportunity, and this opportunity ultimately came from Long Yuan. To be honest, he felt that all of Fengyang should thank Long Yuan. Whether it was his Qin Family, the Ye Family, or even Fengyang No. 1 High School and everyone in Fengyang County, they all owed him thanks. If not for Long Yuan, let alone launching this front-line support assembly, the Evil Cult's riot this morning alone would have plunged all of Fengyang into an irredeemable state... After Ni Ni finished singing, the Qin Family performed an acrobatics act, finally concluding their program. Qin Fu Yi excitedly took the stage to represent the Qin Family in expressing their admiration for the northern soldiers, while also solemnly donating a large sum of xuan stones on the spot!

This sum of xuan stones was actually the prize money he had won earlier by betting on Fengyang No. 1 High School. It was essentially like getting a free ride from the 'Good Luck Comes' company, but it was also earned thanks to Long Yuan. It could be said that he, like Qi Huaiyi, had managed to benefit from Long Yuan in multiple ways!

Qin Fu Yi's generous display drew cheers from the entire audience, and the Qin Family's reputation reached a temporary peak!

Finally, it was Long Yuan's turn to take the stage... Seeing Long Yuan standing by the side of the stage with a guitar, the audience below had long been unable to wait and began shouting... "Long Yuan!" "Long Yuan!!" "Long Yuan!!!"... Fans and students screamed, frantically waving the glow sticks in their hands. All their phones had their screens lit, swaying back and forth. Countless pieces of colored paper fell from the sky, and streamers shot into the air, turning into colorful arcs... Long Yuan did not disappoint them. While waving in greeting, he directly slung the guitar over his back. After adjusting it, he gave a signal to the band behind him, and the music began!

"Is everyone ready? Today, I will present ten original works for you. This is the first one, 'A Laughter in the Sea'!!!"

The intro played, and Long Yuan officially began to sing. His voice was soul-stirring: "A Laughter in the Sea, the tides surge on both shores, rising and falling with the waves, only today is remembered; The heavens laugh, at the chaotic tides of the world, who loses and who wins, only Heaven knows; The mountains and rivers laugh, the misty rain is distant, the waves wash away the Mortal World, how many beauties are there; The clear wind laughs, provoking such loneliness, heroic passion remains in a cloak of evening glow; The common people laugh, no longer lonely, heroic passion remains in foolish laughter, la la la la la... la la la la la..."

This Wuxia-style song was refreshing, breaking the pervasive decadent style of the songs on the great ming golden melody chart, giving people a sense of heroic ambition and inspiration!

Moreover, he sang this in the southern dialect of the Fengyang area, which immediately stirred up hometown sentiments in everyone present. Dialect songs were extremely rare, and no one expected Long Yuan to sing one so effortlessly, bringing a huge surprise to everyone... Xu Ruoying had seen the lyrics but couldn't quite understand them, but judging from the shocking response of the crowd, this must be a peerless song. She was almost dazed listening to it... At this time, the Fengyang Martial Arts Home was also about to explode with comments. Many people hadn't expected to be treated to Long Yuan's solo concert tonight. As soon as this song started, it was so captivating and left a lasting impression!

Bullet comments drifted past like raindrops, becoming increasingly dense... "The second song, 'A Dream of Sabers and Swords'!"

"My sword, where should it go? Love and hate are hard to choose; My saber, cuts through the sky, right and wrong, I don't understand; I'm drunk, in a hazy state, grudges and debts are but illusions and emptiness; I wake, from a spring dream, life and death are all for naught! Coming in a hurry, going in a hurry, regretting we couldn't meet; Love in a hurry, hate in a hurry, everything goes with the wind; A wild laugh, a long sigh, a happy life, a sorrowful life, who will share life and death with me..."

Long Yuan's singing pierced through the sky and stirred the clouds, as if sabers and swords were crisscrossing and clashing in the night sky. Those present and online felt their Bloodline racing and their hearts swelling with heroic ambition, as if a grand passion was brewing in their chests. They were intoxicated, truly intoxicated... "The third song, 'Great Ming People'!"

"Ten thousand years of wind and rain have hidden how many dreams, a yellow face and black eyes, the smile remains unchanged, tens of thousands of miles of mountains and rivers are like a song, no matter where you come from or where you are going... The same tears, the same pain, the hardships of the past we keep in our hearts, the same blood, the same seed, there are still dreams for the future that we will explore together... Hand in hand, regardless of you or me, walking forward with heads held high, let the world know that we are all Great Ming People..."

This song, 'Chinese People' from Earth, had its lyrics slightly modified by Long Yuan to suit the occasion, and the effect was equally powerful. It moved everyone to tears, and many people couldn't help but weep. Especially after the Blood Wolf Hall's chaos and the War Bear Country's invasion of the Northern Defense Line today, the sense of crisis in everyone's hearts had further intensified. Thinking about this era where Exotic Beasts ran rampant and the Human Race had been pushed to a precarious state by them—even with brainless internal conflicts—a song like 'Great Ming People' truly played a huge role in uniting people's hearts!

Once this song was sung, it immediately caused a sensation both in Fengyang and across various promotion channels of the Shidai Tianyin Company. Countless people began to pay attention to the young singer Long Yuan, who was holding a solo concert in that remote corner of the Fengyang base... Next, Long Yuan sang several more songs filled with patriotic sentiment and Jianghu flavor, letting everyone immerse themselves in his musical world, unable to pull themselves out for a long time..."}],
