Shangguan Susu took the initiative to join Hong Dali’s team. Countless people were sitting in front of the computer, staring at the screen. They were shocked by Hatsune Miku and Luo Tianyi’s flawless voice, as well as their graceful dance. And of course, in the identity of Hatsune Miku and Luo Tianyi.

Real avatars, standing in front of everyone looking alive.

The people savored the lyrics like poetry. The unheard of melody swirled in their minds. The unique melody lingered in their minds even though they only heard it once. As soon as they closed their eyes, Hatsune Miku and Luo Tianyi’s silhouettes appeared in their minds.

“Too beautiful. This is too beautiful...” Countless people exclaimed.

They had never thought they’d be able to see such a magical scene unfold before them in a simple program.

It was out of everyone’s imaginations.

The tune of the sound was very unique, making countless people hum along as they listened. Many of them hummed out loud, accompanied by their exaggerated movements, going out of tune. But one could not deny people’s love for this song, let alone deny the appearance of Hatsune Miku and Luo Tianyi and the impact on their souls!

When someone likes a song, he could feel happiness from it. It didn’t matter if they sang it well or not.

Of course, there are also many people who didn’t feel anything towards the song. Some people liked it, and some didn’t. That was normal. But even if they didn’t like the song didn’t mean that they didn’t like Hatsune Miku and Luo Tianyi. These two girls had become alive from the virtual world. Just them showing up had completely captured everyone’s heart.

Holographic Projection Technology was indeed a big step in entertainment history.

Many people sat in front of their computers, stunned. They stared at Hatsune Miku and Luo Tianyi on the screen, watching it over and over again. But they were reluctant to turn it off. After a whole day of brainwashing, people start to realize that they did not download such a precious performance. How could that have happened?!

Of course, many people left a message below the video, liked the videos thirty-two times. Then they went to Weibo, logged into Turkey, shared the video to all their friends, forwarded it on Weibo, and in various social sharing on the website. This was the most notable feature of Internet users of the era—to share the moment with friends.

Soon, the video of stage nine of I Am a Singer, the legend of Hatsune Miku and Luo Tianyi, went viral at the speed of a virus. In just a day, in less than 24 hours from the upload of the video, the number of downloads had exceeded 5 million. The number of hits was as high as 46 million! And it was still increasing!

From the shares in Weibo and Turkey Software, more and more people started to pay attention to the program, to Hatsune Miku and Luo Tianyi. The frequency of video playback continued to increase. With every page refresh, the number of times the video was played rose significantly.

In the comments, countless comments continued to break the record on So Cool.

“This is a good song, and the singers are good. I turned my head around and saw virtual people standing alive on the stage!”

“It’s amazing. Young Master is not simple indeed. Miracle creator! Young Master, I love you!”

“I fall deeper and deeper in love with the programs produced by the Young Master. It surprises me every time!”

“That’s right. Min Feiyao is still going against the Young Master. They are in completely different leagues. He must be sick, he needs to be cured!”

“The Lantern Illuminates the Rivers and Mountains, Heavenly State styled, music like poetry. Good! This is too good! Between Hatsune Miku and Luo Tianyi, I like Luo Tianyi more. What do you think?”

“Replying to the comment above, I like Hatsune Miku better. I liked big-boobed girls!”

“Damn!”

In just a day, Young Master, Hatsune Miku, and Luo Tianyi had ruled the entire Internet. Lots of people were praising Young Master Hong Dali, and the song he wrote, The Lantern Illuminates the Rivers and Mountains became popular. Weibo had several related posts. And the chats in Turkey Messenger started with “Have you liked it today?”

On the second day, the video of stage nine of I Am a Singer on So Cool had exceeded 60 million views. The number of topics relating to Hatsune Miku and Luo Tianyi on Xinhai Weibo rose like the spreading of a virus. From the 30th place to the top ten places within three hours. By 3:00 PM on the second day, it had blown Min Feiyao’s concert video out of the chart and become the first!

The discussion of topics surrounding the virtual duo Hatsune Miku and Luo Tianyi and the admiration for Young Master Hong Dali had spread to every crook and cranny. And it was just the beginning...

“Recently, the discussion about the virtual duo, Hatsune Miku and Luo Tianyi has reached a point of madness. Nobody thought that the Young Master would be able to develop such an exciting virtual character. In many comments, netizens have expressed their respect for Young Master Hong Dali, and have affectionately referred Hatsune Miku and Luo Tianyi as ‘Princesses.’ At the same time, the song ‘The Lantern Illuminates the Rivers and Mountains’ is being sung all over the country. Stage nine of ‘I Am a Singer’ has set a record for the number of views and downloads on So Cool. It’s worth mentioning that the previous download records were also created by Young Master.”

“Young Master’s productions must be the best. Yours truly have gone through various channels and learned that something else is cooking in the Young Master’s oven. Caiwei Entertainment’s Miss Zhang said that the new song is currently under intense production, and will debut in the country-wide Hatsune Tianyi’s Double Concert. Yes, you did not see wrong. Not a tour, but a double concert. This time, Hatsune Tianyi will have 23 doubles and will be holding concerts simultaneously in 23 provincial capital cities across the country. This is an important chapter in the history of the entertainment circle. I believe it will not let anyone down!”

“The latest news, this time, the Hatsune Tianyi duo’s 23 double concerts will have a special guest. The well-known goddess Miss Li Nianwei will perform on the same stage as the Hatsune Tianyi. This time, there will also be 23 doubles of her. Yes, yes! Miss Li Nianwei will also have doubles. Dear fans, are you feeling uncontrollably excited? After the first concert, this will be the first time goddess Li Nianwei has officially announced her participation in another concert. And it will be in this form! Let us all cheer together!”

—Tianjing Entertainment News Weekly

Following this announcement, the internet exploded!

Goddess Li Nianwei!

Since she entered the entertainment business like a meteor, there had been no news or rumors. There was not a single piece of news on the highly anticipated concert.

Unexpected to everyone, such a big concert was announced. Concerts held in twenty-three provincial capital cities across the country at the same time, and it was combined with the most popular Hatsune Tianyi!

Just the Hatsune Tianyi duo was enough to attract everyone’s attention. With the addition of Li Nianwei, what kind of explosive scene could one look forward to! Just thinking about it made one full of excitement. Countless netizens implied that they would definitely attend.

Just at that moment, the latest news came from Caiwei Entertainment.

This news was definitely classified as atomic bomb-level!

Young Master Hong Dali said that profits from the upcoming concert would be contributed to charity! Among it, half would be used to help children in the poverty-stricken areas of the mountain attend schools. A quarter of the funds would be used to establish an animal protection association to help various animals in need within the country. Another quarter of the funds would be used to establish an environmental maintenance association to carry out greening and afforestation projects nationwide!

Once this piece of news was released, everyone said that they would go to the concert to support Young Master Hong Dali’s charities. And from then on, as long as it was programs produced by Hong Dali, they would support it regardless of whether they liked it or not.

When the concerts ended, a few news sources and the internet went completely crazy!

There were countless new members who joined the I Am a Singer official Tieba forum. Within days, the forum exceeded four million members. The number of posts hit 20 million every day. The only thing everyone was discussing was the impact that Hatsune Tianyi had on them.

And because of these topics, the other singers on I Am a Singer also became popular in an instant. Although their popularity was far less compared to the Hatsune Tianyi duo, in their respective posts, the number of members also increased crazily.

There was a saying that, give and take, kindness was always returned tenfold—if you challenge me, don’t blame me for slingshotting your glass. So, the Tieba forum of Min Feiyao, who had openly challenged Hong Dali, was all gloomy. Previously the fans of I Am a Singer’s Li Nianwei had all been holding their breath. How could such a good opportunity be missed?

Hence, on July 13, at 6:00 PM, the horn of retaliation sounded!
