Chapter 859: Chapter 745: Astonishing Skills (Subscribe, please!) The performance on stage had ended. Wang Yan and her partner walked down hand in hand. Since there was no dance involved, they weren’t physically exhausted. However, Wang Yan’s forehead was dotted with fine sweat—nervousness. Wang Yan feared she might mix up the lyrics, steal her partner’s lines, or miss her own, which would be embarrassing. Fortunately, no such mishaps occurred, and she completed the song. "You sang really well," Tang Qing approached them with praise. "Of course, I’m a professional after all, and Wang Yan did well too. Your equipment is impressive; I’ll need to borrow it next time," Wang Yan eyed the equipment with interest. So. Tang Qing repeated what he had said to Andy Lau earlier, but in return, he received an indifferent response. Wang Yan, after all, was a professional singer who relied on this for her livelihood, while Andy Lau had long since transitioned to become an actor—his main occupation. Such a great piece of equipment—Wang Yan couldn’t miss out on it for a bit of money. Soon. The sequence of acts progressed orderly. Xu Wei, a ’volunteer’ pulled on stage by Andy Lau, stunned the audience with a rendition of "Once Upon a Time," Zhang Liangying, a ’volunteer’ found by Wang Yan—last year’s superstar winner. How the two knew each other, or how Zhang Liangying was persuaded to come, was a mystery. Among the celebrities, there was Liu Yifei, the brand ambassador of Sheng Tang Group, who rose to fame as ’Zhao Ling’er’ at breakneck speed and had a decent singing foundation, though her participation came with a performance fee. The endorsement contract included a clause for a limited number of promotional events, but it did not cover this annual meeting and performance. The one-year contract signed with Liu Yifei at the beginning of last year was about to expire, but Sheng Tang Group intended to renew it for another two years. Originally, Tang Qing was prepared to offer the Sheng Tang endorsement contract to Wang Yan once she debuted. However, Wang Yan was still studying at school and wouldn’t make it this year, so Tang Qing decided to renew the contract. When the time came, he’d find another endorsement for Wang Yan, fulfilling his initial promise. With so many companies under his banner, there were plenty of endorsements to choose from, or maybe follow Coca-Cola’s lead with a joint endorsement. The annual meeting was halfway through. The sports stadium was filled with cheers. This annual meeting had truly brought many surprises to everyone. Being able to see so many celebrities up close—usually only visible on TV—and the performances from various company groups were also spectacular, especially Sheng Tang Group’s Design Department—truly multi-talented. Like the last annual meeting, the ladies performed fiery hot dances in the winter, their fair skin gleaming enticingly on the big screen, sending the male attendees’ blood boiling. The Design Department of Sheng Tang Group was indeed teeming with beauties. Soon. It was Tang Qing’s turn to perform. At that moment, he was dressed in a dazzling sky blue outfit with artificial crystals covering his clothes and trousers, reflecting twinkling starlight. Compared to Tang Qing’s eye-catching attire, Andy Lau was also distinctive, though not as flashy. Still, his presence kept their momentum evenly matched. After praising the previous performance and lightening the mood. "And now, please welcome Chairman Tang and Andy Lau to the stage to perform ’Chinese People’." Zong Wen’s voice was elevated. The two of them took the stage in turn. "Did you see that, Andy Lau... Ah... I can’t believe I’m seeing him in person. I’m so happy." "Andy Lau, I love you..." "Chairman, we will always support you." "Chairman, your outfit looks so good..." "Wow, wow, wow..." "..." The scene almost spiraled out of control. Andy Lau gave a grand smile and picked up the microphone, his Mandarin not perfect but magnetic, "Hello, everyone. I’m honored to be here at this annual meeting to witness miracle after miracle. This is my first time in Qingyan City, but I believe it won’t be the last. If I have the chance, I would love to come again. Thank you all for your support. Now, ’Chinese People’ is for you. Let’s all be proud and boastful of the blood that flows in our veins, carrying the weight of our civilization’s history. Thank you." "Wow..." "..." The noise barely settled down. As the majestic background music started, the rhythmic prelude thumped against the hearts of the attendees. The song was familiar to all; the moment it began, a surge of passion filled the room. Uranus sang the first segment. "Five thousand years of wind and rain, ah, how many dreams have been hidden." "Yellow faces, black eyes, the unchanging smile." "Eight thousand li of mountains, rivers, and peaks..." "..." A three-minute and fifty-second song. After it ended, the venue fell into complete silence. They all stared at Tang Qing in a bit of a daze, hardly believing that it was Tang Qing’s voice? When Tang Qing sang, he clearly used falsetto, which was entirely different from his normal speaking voice, but this falsetto... was just too pleasant to the ears. That extremely infectious voice. It was like a big drum, each word striking their hearts, causing people to immerse themselves unconsciously, as if it carried an enchanting sound that exhilarated them like an epiphany. Proud to be Chinese. Little did they know, Tang Qing used a little trick, as Nerve Telekinesis had already covered the entire venue. Paired with his singing, he could transmit his own emotions and be perceived by others. This perception was a kind of recognition that welled up from the bottom of their hearts. To put it plainly, whatever Tang Qing sang, whatever emotion he wanted to convey, the surrounding people could deeply experience it. The princess was utterly enchanted. Uranus’s face showed an uncontrollable shock. Several invited top celebrities also looked as if they were under a spell, standing in place, motionless. Laymen watch the excitement, experts watch the technique; to others, Tang Qing’s song was just pleasing to the ear, and the falsetto was very infectious, but these celebrities understood the difficulty in it. A person like Tang Qing had the potential of a ’Soul Singer’ who could really reach deep into people’s hearts. Light shone in their eyes. Then they were torn. Would Tang Qing be willing to step into the music scene? Obviously not, which made them somewhat relieved. After all, peers are competitors, and who would want another? "Cough cough..." Tang Qing coughed dryly twice, snapping everyone back to their senses. In no time, the scene became completely chaotic. Screams rose and fell in waves. If the earlier applause was for Uranus, then now it was entirely for Tang Qing. "Thank goodness you haven’t entered this field, or a lot of people would be out of work," Uranus muttered enviously. "You flatter me," Tang Qing said with a smile. After bowing, they both left the stage. Lin Jiaxue excitedly threw herself into Tang Qing’s arms, not caring about keeping her composure. All the other women around looked at Tang Qing as if he were prey, and she felt a sense of crisis, needing to declare to everyone the sovereignty of this embrace. "You sang really well," Lin Jiaxue spoke softly. "Of course, I did," Tang Qing held Lin Jiaxue tightly, inhaling the fragrance of her hair, as his mind drifted towards the night. However, seeing the surrounding gazes, he quickly controlled the response that would’ve made Lin Jiaxue blush in embarrassment. This was not the time for embarrassments. ... PS: ’At First Sight’ brother, how did you know I was planning to ask for leave tomorrow? Shocking!!!
