Chapter 192 - Fairy (2/2)

“I’m revealing my photo, is there a brother out there who looks like me? If so, show me now! No matter how far away, I’ll fly over!”

“…Sorry, there’s no one here who can match your appearance!”

“Hahahahaha Ruhua you’re being naughty again!”

“My name is Ouyang Zhao, is there anyone here with the same name?”

“Go find a shaman to perform the ritual for you!”

The netizen’s chat room was livid. The 11/11 gala also began to liven up as more and more people entered the gymnasium.

The tickets for the 11/11 gala were not for sale; you could only receive them from these draws. There weren’t many tickets either, since the gymnasium only fit 11,000 people. It was estimated that less than half the seats were for public use, since they were reserved for media personnel, video platforms and their representatives. These commercial companies took up a majority of the seats.

This year’s 11/11 gala was going to be streamed on all three main satellite TV channels, which was quite a feat. The stream began at 7:40 pm.

By 7:00, the venue had filled up, and the directing crew had begun several preparations. As for the live audience, well of course they were all taking selfies, photos for their WeChat moments and Weibo.

At 7:40, the stream began. The audience as well as the TV viewers, and the online users officially saw what the stage looked like.

After a montage of short videos describing the celebrities and some commercials, the performance started with a very creative opening. The hosts appeared on the stage, next to two celebrity hosts, all three of them; the top pick from their respective channels.

Recalling upon the future of the exhibition, the first performance was a female singer from England who had stirred up attention in the last year in Huaxia. She had an incredible live presence, and was very explosive when performing live.

At around 9:00, two hosts brought up a group of celebrities to play an exhibition match with a soccer celebrity. Afterward, the host is known as the Tongue of China, and the evening’s main host, Hua Shao, introduced the next performer. It was Su Qing Cen, performing one of her famous songs: “Fairy”.

Su Qing Cen, wearing a green veil slowly rose onto the stage. Normal people couldn’t pull off a full green veil, but Su Qing Cen really looked like a fairy in the outfit. She was so beautiful that people lost their breath as the audience quieted down. Everyone anticipated the incredible performance that would follow.

There was no dance crew, as Su Qing Cen was the only person on stage.

She’d performed this song many times before, but it wasn’t suitable for solo performance.

Where were her dancers?

Usually this song always had a hoard of powerful dancers to express its explosiveness.

At this time, a beam of light shot towards the side of the stage where a guy sat next to a table.

“Huh?”

Appearing at this time meant it had something to do with the song. But he was so far away, how are they going to collaborate?

Of course, the viewers in front of the TV and on the stream could see the words depicted in the subtitles.

Sand Art: Meng Fan.

They then understood this was sand art accompaniment to the performance.

Most people had seen the sand painting before, so they waited in anticipation.

Out of these, a small number of them were very excited. Obviously, it was the fickle netizens who knew Meng Fan was attending this gala. Only, they didn’t know Meng Fan could do sand art as well, thinking it was a duet. After all, Meng Fan’s singing was very appealing.

The music sounded and the lights flickered.

“I remember those wonderful moments/like a fleeting phantom/I followed the sound/ and saw a dream-like fairy…”

Su Qing Cen’s moving voice sounded, cueing Meng Fan, who was shrouded in light to begin his performance. The contents of his sand painting appeared on the rear projection, where a beautiful fairy appeared amid a blooming lotus flower.

It looked like the flower was really blooming in real-time. Nobody had seen this kind of animated sand painting before, but they could see it with their naked eyes that the artist was using a particular technique to spread the sand to create this effect.

The fairy inside the flower was very beautiful, depicted with surprising detail.

“…Storms come and go/the demon wakes somewhere…”

At that moment, the stage Su Qing Cen was standing on suddenly lit up, and the projection of his sand art appeared at her feet. The two hands spreading the sand moved very quickly, and in no time, Su Qing Cen was shrouded in a forest. It was a forest ravaged by the wind, with its branches flying, and even Su Qing Cen herself was swept up!
