Chapter 340: Hatsune Tianyi

“They’re here, they’re here!” Once he heard the duo’s name being announced, Sheng Wenshi excitedly said, “They’re finally appearing. This is a brand new duo? Hatsune Tianyi, I have never heard of them before!”

Ding Chengzhi nodded and said, “Yes, I have not heard of them before either. Can they make it?”

At this point in time, all the surrounding audience had quietened down as they listened to Zhang Cai’s introduction. “Hatsune Tianyi is a brand new duo. They have never appeared in the entertainment circle before but will appear frequently in the future.”

“A brand new duo on this stage. I’m sure everyone is curious as to who they are. My answer is that they are very talented, talented beyond our imagination, so talented that every time I hear their song, my palms break out in sweat!”

The surrounding audience was instantly stunned when they heard this.

The song made Zhang Cai’s palms sweat while listening to it? Could it be even more astonishing then Chu Zhongqin’s sonorous and resounding Never Left?

“That’s why, although they have no prior exposure, we have decided to let them come on stage.” Zhang Cai continued, smiling, “Please let us welcome our new duo, Hatsune Tianyi!”

“The song they are performing today was written and composed by Young Master. It’s called ‘The Lantern Illuminates the Rivers and Mountains’!”

“Please welcome them with big applause!”

Once Zhang Cai finished speaking, the audience immediately broke into thunderous applause!

Everyone craned their necks and waited eagerly to see just how great this brand new duo, which even Zhang Cai expressed amazement over, was.

…

“‘The Lantern Illuminates the Rivers and Mountains’? The song name is not bad, but will the two new singers be able to sing it well?” Sheng Wenshi, who was sitting on the viewing platform, nudged Ding Chengzhi. “Old Ding, will this really be okay? The songs Young Master writes are almost all classics, but to let two new singers sing it…”

“It’s too early to say anything…” Ding Chengzhi considered it carefully, and finally shook his head. “It’s too early to decide. Right now, we do not even know what these two new singers look like. I am unable to make any comments. Let us just hope for a miracle.”

…

Soon, all the audience had quietened down.

The lights on the stage dimmed completely, but there was no sign of anyone on stage at all.

“Where is the new duo? Why are they not here?””How come I don’t see anybody?””A song written by Young Master, is it another angry, microphone smashing song?””I think it’s Young Master beating up little kids with his main character!””I think, since Young Master wrote the song and composed it himself, it should be not bad—but, no matter how great this song is, why are the performers not coming out?”

Just as the discussions reached a fevered pitch, a clear exquisite voice suddenly rang out, “Carrying a lantern, millions of stars, lighting the rivers and the mountains—” A silvery icy voice followed. “Asking my old friend, when will he be back, to watch beside me!”

The prelude to the song only began after these two lines.

“Damn, that’s a fantastic voice!””This voice is not just gorgeous, it’s luxurious!””Oh Oh Oh, is this tempo trying to bring me to my knees?!””Goosebumps ahhhh love love ahhhh!”

The audience immediately got excited. They went crazy!

That which would really drive them crazy had just begun!

The lights on stage stayed dark. As the lively strains of the prelude played, a few little feathers floated slowly down from the air above the stage. This signaled the beginning of the Holographic Projection.

Those who watched every episode of I Am a Singer would be familiar with the Holographic Projection Technology. Today, however, they were bound to be astounded!

In the space where the feathers had fallen, two golden circles suddenly appeared. The two halos, one to the left, one to the right, were suspended in midair. No one knew what they were, and no one knew what the two golden circles meant.

Soon, everyone understood.

From the two circles, two dainty feet appeared, followed by the calves, thighs… before long, two incomparably beautiful young girls appeared from within the circles. Eventually, they slowly landed on the ground…

“That… That’s!” Everyone was astounded!

This was because, despite racking their brains, no one had thought that Hatsune Tianyi would appear before them in such a manner! The girls turned out to be completely digital, existing only as holographic projections!

Just as everyone was stunned, the two of them, one on the left, one on the right, started singing along with the melody!

“Carrying a lantern, illuminating the night, watching the river and the mountains. The wind blows in the pavilion, right into my arms!”

As the singing started, the audience quieted down again. The only thing that was in everyone’s gazes were the dancing silhouettes of Hatsune Miku and Luo Tianyi, and the only thing they heard was their song.

“The long pole ripples the reflection of the moon, the little boat floats in the water, as if a bottle of wine, the milky way pays tribute to the ages!”

Everyone present could feel the two young girls’ smiling, enchanting eyes, and the lingering echoes of their voices.

“Who will stand by me, except snow! Who will accompany me, the sun and the moon! Unchanging like day and night, thank you! Else I would have to relive the past alone!”

Every clear word, every note that floated out painted a picture. In the wind, history stirred and chests were pounding. In that instant, as the singing started, everyone’s imaginations were set afire.

“My dear friend is gone, leaving me in the long night, wandering the mountains with my lantern. The wishes of people, a stream of light, suddenly flickering. This human world, experienced in a murmur, tomes of events. Trudging, through wishes, temporarily resting.”

“Great song, great song!” It was not known who uttered this subconsciously, interrupting the absolutely beautiful imagery, but no one blamed him. More and more people were getting uncontrollably excited.

On the stage, Hatsune Miku and Luo Tianyi started dancing. The exquisite lyrics about the scenery of Heavenly State clearly drifted into the ears of all present.

“Alighting from the boat and coming ashore, having a snack and taking a break. Rumors, passing by my ears. Overgrown city watchtowers, glory lost. The laughter and sorrows of people, abated by the passing of time. Who will laugh and chat with me, cicadas! Who will share my worries and sorrows, wine casket! How will time pass, alone! All there is to do is relive the past again and again!”

“My dear friend is far away, leaving me here, watching the scenery alone. Leaning against the railings, the twilight falls, the stars and moon appear again. Illuminating with a lantern, the rivers and mountains through time, the winds fill the sleeves of my gown. Turning all the wishes into a way back, back beside me!”

This verse reverberated, singing of another time, another world. The sonorous voices brought out the best of the song.

Then, the sound of the wind abated and everyone fell silent.

“Who will cross with me, the sea of mountains! What have you experienced, sorrow and laughter! Who will stay with me, never turning away! Turning all the wishes into lanterns!”

“Carrying a lantern, millions of stars, at the peak of the mountains. The wishes of people, a stream of light, suddenly flickering. A friend returns, in faith and hope, as if suddenly. This human world, the seasons turn, years again pass!”

As the song came to an end, a scene beautiful beyond belief played in the minds of everyone.

A beautiful lady running into the wide embrace of her love on the bridge, hugging tightly. The rain falls, drenching their clothes, breaking up their reflection in the river below the bridge, but not being able to separate the two embracing lovers.

The man held the lady gently as the corners of his lips slowly turned up in a smile.

Slowly, enough to dazzle everyone.

Unchanging over ten years, uncloying over a hundred years, eternally in love.

Finally, the melody faded away and the audience looked up. Their gazes were all concentrated on the two girls in the middle of the stage.

One was wearing a black and white young girl’s jacket, with two sky blue ponytails, with a complexion that was pale and luminous like jade. The other was dressed in traditional clothing, two long strands of hair extending to the front of her chest, her expression gentle, her bearing refined.

The audience chanted. “Hatsune Tianyi…”

At the same time, the two young girls on stage turned their gazes toward the crowd. They blushed and lowered their heads.

The entire West Fourth Loop Stadium fell into an ineffable silence.

The silence persisted for a total of five seconds, after which the crowd came to their feet as one and broke into thunderous applause for Hatsune Miku and Luo Tianyi, the two young girls who existed only in the digital dimension.

The crowd went wild!

Everyone cheered unrestrainedly. An all-new song, two completely made believe but oh-so-realistic girls! A brand new duo! The audience’s minds were bombarded by all these! They never thought that they could have technology like this!

It took just that one split second for Hatsune Miku and Luo Tianyi to become the perfect dream lover of all the young men and women present!

That’s right, even females were unable to resist liking them!

“This song is too good!””Fantastic! Hatsune Tianyi, I love you!””Super beautiful! Ahhhhh!””Too good!!! Much love!!!””It’s really good. Much love! The best I have ever heard!”

The loud cheers went on for a whole two minutes before the crowd calmed down.

When everyone had finally calmed down, Hatsune Miku, who had two sky blue ponytails, smiled bashfully and inclined her head ever so slightly. She introduced herself, “Hello everyone, my… my name is Hatsune Miku. Thank you, everyone…” Hatsune Miku then broke into a shy little laugh. “Heh… Hehe…”

Her endearing, bashful expression, her appearance that was a cross between two- and three-dimensional imaging, as well as her introduction, made everyone present immediately fond of her. They felt like they wanted to gather this girl into their arms and shower her with kisses.

“I’m Luo Tianyi, I hope everyone will like us.” Unlike Hatsune Miku’s endearing bashfulness, Luo Tianyi was outgoing and unrestrained. She greeted everyone, “Dear audience, I love you!”

Luo Tianyi’s physical appearance, too, won the cheers and support of numerous audience members.

On the evening of July 12 of 2014, on the set of I Am a Singer, the duo Hatsune Tianyi made the first contact with the audience. With their song, ‘The Lantern Illuminates the Rivers and Mountains,’ they won the hearts of everyone.

I Am a Singer’s storm rises again!
