Chapter 1 I really didn't go up to grab a monthly ticket for my relatives,
"Family, this kind of graduation ceremony proposal is not common! You can't be too careful, right?"
"For those of you who haven't followed me, please do so! When the professors come in, there will be awesome magic effects to watch!"
"In the future, I will provide professional broadcasting teaching in my live broadcast room——
'Dear classmates, I am located in front of the Liang Kuoju Auditorium of Nanyue University, bringing you a live broadcast of the graduation ceremony. We can see that right in front of us...'"
In the grand auditorium of Nanyue University, the scene of the graduation ceremony of the School of Communication and Design, the ceremony had not yet begun. An Internet celebrity with a broadcasting accent was sitting below and broadcasting his graduation ceremony live on his mobile phone.
Just now on the stage, a boy proposed to his girlfriend by singing a song. This episode immediately ignited the enthusiasm of fans in his live broadcast room. The gifts were showered on him, and it also attracted a lot of new popularity to him.
"I've seen people break up after graduation, but I've never seen anyone propose after graduation."
"You must be ignorant. We even came to our school's graduation ceremony with our children."
"The anchor's voice is 666!"
"Oh my god, even a grown man like me is wet behind the ears."
Just when the internet celebrity was excitedly showing off his deep and deep voice to the new audience in the live broadcast room, suddenly, there was a burst of screams and cheers like a mountain roar and a tsunami!
"What's going on?"
In response to fans' requests, the internet celebrity turned the camera around and pointed it at the stage.
I saw a tall boy wearing a bachelor's robe from Nanyue University, walking towards the couple who had successfully proposed and were about to step off the stage.
The barrage started to flash:
"Damn it! What's going on?"
"Is this going to cut off the beard?"
"It's not enough to propose marriage, this is to steal the bride!"
Looking at the content of the barrage and the special effects of the gifts that started to fly, the internet celebrity's hand holding the selfie stick on her phone trembled slightly.
This is the time to get popular!
"Family members, flowers, fireworks, and carnival, don't you want to celebrate?"
"Haha, I'm just kidding. I don't dare to ask for extravagance in the Carnival. I'll give you a sports car!"
"Proposals are rare at graduation ceremonies, but Cheng Yaojin shows up in the middle of the ceremony. Such a plot to steal a bride can only be seen on TV!"
He was just watching the excitement and did not take it too seriously, and tried his best to stir up trouble in the live broadcast room. But unfortunately, the boy on stage did not intend to steal the "bride".
He briefly said a few words to the boy who had successfully proposed to him, and then the two of them hugged each other. He took the other person's guitar and carried him towards the microphone that had not been removed in the middle of the stage.
"Isn't it a bride-grab?"
"I've taken off my pants and you're showing me this?"
"What did the anchor say? Didn't it mean snatching a bride?"
This is a bit embarrassing!
Fortunately, the Internet celebrity with a broadcasting accent is relatively thick-skinned. He ignored the ridicule of netizens in the live broadcast room and asked the classmates around him in a low voice what was going on.
"Who is that?"
"Yang Qian? It turns out it's him!"
Soon, he turned around and explained to the fans in the live broadcast room with a smile:
"I'm just kidding everyone again. I'm not kidding. The boy who proposed to me just now is the class president of the Journalism Department, and the girl is the class beauty of Class 2, Media Creative Major."
"The boy on stage now is also from the Department of Journalism. I heard that he and the monitor are very good buddies. He should be the one to steal the groom, don't you think?"
Although the scene just now was a bit slap in the face, Internet celebrities are Internet celebrities, and this person is so smooth-talking. A simple joke made the atmosphere in the live broadcast room lively again.
The internet celebrity usually has poor grades and often skips classes in order to shoot videos and live broadcasts. But even so, he has heard about the boy named "Yang Qian" on the stage.
Yang Qian's fame comes from his writing style!
Because he often publishes his prose works in some well-known domestic newspapers and periodicals, Yang Qian is always regarded as a model by some teachers in the college to educate his classmates.
He has good literary talent, is tall, thin, and a little handsome. Such a boy is still a high-quality idol even today!
Therefore, even though Yang Qian usually keeps a low profile, he was still recognized by many girls in the college as soon as he came on stage!
"It seems Yang Qian doesn't have a girlfriend yet, right?"
"Does he want to confess too? Who should he confess to?"
"Oh, I can't stand it anymore. I'm going to be fed dog food today!"
The girls from other majors in the audience started talking about it.
Yang Qian's roommates also had confused expressions on their faces. When they were questioned by the girls in the class, they could only spread their hands with a wry smile.
"I don't know, where did Brother Qian get his girlfriend?"
"I didn't hear that he was going to confess his love. We know that Lao Mu is proposing. We have been practicing in the dormitory for a month."
"The key is, why did Brother Qian take Lao Mu's guitar? I've never seen him play the guitar before!"
Under everyone's excited, surprised, doubtful, and curious gazes, Yang Qian stood in the middle of the graduation ceremony stage holding his guitar.
Even though his mentality has always been calm, he couldn't help but feel a little uneasy now.
"Hello classmates, there is a song here today that I want to sing for everyone..."
When Yang Qian opened his mouth to speak, he felt very ashamed - he was so lacking in skills and his voice was trembling.
…
When Yang Qian came on stage, he really didn't want to steal his bride. Of course, he didn't want to confess to any girl as everyone guessed.
It can be said that he made it on the spur of the moment!
It's just that this "intention" is not entirely his own personal wish!
I don’t know if it was because when he watched Lao Mu singing and proposing, Yang Qian’s heart surged, and he remembered his dream of singing when he was a child. A system of "fans" who claimed to be from some earth suddenly appeared in his mind.
This system is quite magical. It allows you to improve your singing level through hard practice, and it will also unlock songs from the earth for you.
[Sing ten times] Unlock all singing methods of the current song.
[Sing a hundred times] Unlock a new song.
【Sing a Thousand Times】Unlock new singing skills.
【Sing 10,000 Times】Unlock new instrument playing skills.
【Sing a million times】Unlock new vocal ranges (treble, alto, bass).
Before Yang Qian could explore these gameplays, the system gave him a gift package for newbies, and a reward for each level was directly given to him.
I don’t know if it counts as an early adopter, but Yang Qian got too much!
A new song he had never heard before and its entire singing method came directly to his head!
With the improvement of his "musical sense" in his singing skills, Yang Qian suddenly felt that he could clearly hear the notes, pitch, and rhythm changes of each melody!
With his proficiency in guitar playing skills, Yang Qian feels like an extension of his own body when he touches a guitar that he couldn't learn before. He can play however he wants!
There is also the unlocking of the alto range, which I don’t feel much about yet... But Yang Qian has already felt the power of this system from the previous gains, and also realized that with this system, he may really have a chance to realize his own goals.
Singing dreams!
However, the system also gave an initial task!
Probably to test Yang Qian's courage to continue on the road of music, it required Yang Qian to complete a performance in two hours in front of more than a thousand people.
Therefore, for the sake of his dream, Yang Qian rushed to the stage like a duck...
…
However, Yang Qian was a great talent in the Department of Journalism, and he quickly stabilized himself.
He does not have a deep broadcasting accent, but as a quasi-journalist who is about to take up his post, language expression skills are a must.
"I remember last year at the graduation ceremony of the 20th grade seniors, Principal Luo said: Every separation is for a better reunion."
When Yang Qian said this, he paused and suddenly changed the subject:
"But we bid farewell to campus. Tomorrow we will go to different cities, take up different jobs, and work hard for a new life and our own dreams."
"I don't know how many years it will be before we meet again again."
"Perhaps, most of us will never have the chance to meet each other again. Today's goodbye may really be forever!"
What Yang Qian said is a bit cruel, but it is indeed true!
"It's not just between us, it will also be difficult for us to say goodbye to the school."
"Maybe when many students come back to school, they will already be the parents of others, their temples will be gray, and they will have gone through many vicissitudes of life."
"And maybe, after we graduate, the school will start to be renovated and it will be secretly made beautiful while we are gone!"
"Like the Xueyi dining hall where we have the best food, the library where we secretly invite girls to go, and the back door behind the classroom where we secretly sneak out. Maybe when we come back, they will have changed and we can't find them.
The marks we left behind..."
Yang Qian's tone was not necessarily serious, and the students would also be amused by his witty words, but there was still a deep reluctance in everyone's laughter that was aroused by Yang Qian, and they were deeply reluctant to say goodbye.
"So, when you have the opportunity, you still have to say goodbye properly. Here, a song "Goodbye" is dedicated to the students and teachers who have been with us for four years!"
Yang Qian was not long-winded and got to the point in just a few words.
After finishing speaking, Yang Qian picked up the guitar, put the fingers of his left hand on the neck, and gently stroked the six strings with his right hand. This inexplicable "familiarity" was unreal, but it also made him excited.
Got some goosebumps.
The next second, a soft and tender guitar melody was played under his hands and spread throughout the entire auditorium through the microphone.
"I'm afraid, I don't have a chance,
Say goodbye to you,
Because maybe, I will never see you again..."
With the foreshadowing of Yang Qian's previous words, his warm singing voice and sensational lyrics immediately made the students listening feel sad.
There is no brisk rhythm or out-of-the-box singing style. Yang Qian's sincere version of "Goodbye" (Note 1) really drew the students into the mood of "goodbye".
"Tomorrow I will leave,
Familiar place, and you,
If we want to be separated, my tears will fall..."
Isn't it that Yang Qian is invested in his true feelings?
During the four years of college, every detail of the school, every person, every classroom, every corner, and even the flowers and plants on the roadside are filled with memories.
After the graduation ceremony, he had to leave like everyone else. He would be busy with work in the future and really didn't know when he would be able to come back for a visit.
But even if he comes back and new classmates live in the familiar dormitory, if he doesn't meet the familiar teacher on the way to school, maybe he will feel that things are different and people are different, right?
Emotional songs and lyrics that touch your heart.
Yang Qian's singing made the originally noisy auditorium quiet down. Everyone did not want to say anything, and they were all quietly listening to the big boy wearing a bachelor's robe on the stage singing.
But thinking of what Yang Qian just said, "Goodbye is forever," as everyone listened to this song, they couldn't help but turn their attention to the person who they were most reluctant to part with during the four years of college, but didn't dare to confess their feelings, and then looked back.
Already in tears...
(Note 1: What Yang Qian sings here is not the original version, but the true version, also sung by Zhang Chenyue. The video of the true version of "Goodbye" will be released in the Easter egg chapter. You can listen to it, it is more suitable than the original version.
