the next morning.
Yu Huan slowly woke up, feeling refreshed and full of energy.
He subconsciously turned his head and gently looked at Lin Yourong, who was sleeping soundly beside him. Seeing her peaceful face and even breathing, he was afraid of disturbing her, so he carefully pulled away from her koala hug and carefully lifted the quilt.
She tiptoed to get dressed and then left the bedroom.
After washing up in the bathroom, an important thing immediately popped into my mind: putting up Spring Festival couplets.
He walked straight to the TV cabinet, squatted down slightly, and carefully searched through the items. He quickly found the couplets he had bought on Xiahe Street last time.
I sat down steadily on the small stool, tore open the wrapping paper, and laid it flat on the coffee table, spreading it out.
The machine-printed font has strong and powerful strokes. Against the bright red background, the black characters stand out even more, exuding a strong sense of celebration.
Yu Huan put on a mask, selected the first line of the couplet, and carefully carried it to the stairwell outside the door.
He tilted his head slightly, his gaze sweeping back and forth across the wall beside the door frame, carefully comparing the position of the couplet with the wall.
Fortunately, the width of this small Spring Festival couplet is just right, complementing the door frame perfectly.
The hallway was very quiet, without a breath of wind, which made things much more convenient. With just a little transparent tape, the Spring Festival couplets could be firmly stuck to the wall, and cleaning them afterwards was also much easier.
Yu Huan carefully confirmed the height and position, then turned around and placed the first line of the couplet on the coffee table. She then went to the cabinet in the second bedroom to find some tape, cut off a small piece, and stuck it to one corner of the first line.
Then he moved to the stairwell and precisely stuck the corner with the tape on the upper right side of the door frame.
After that, he cut several more pieces of tape and pasted them on, smoothing the Spring Festival couplets out little by little with his hands to ensure they were tightly fitted to the door frame without leaving any gaps.
After pasting up the first line, Yu Huan followed the same method, meticulously pasting up the second line and the horizontal scroll.
That's it.
He took a step back, stood in the middle of the corridor, tilted his head slightly, and slowly scanned the Spring Festival couplets and horizontal scrolls.
The horizontal scroll is positioned squarely in the center above the door frame, and the upper and lower couplets are also close to the sides of the door frame, making the overall appearance quite harmonious.
Yu Huan couldn't help but smile with satisfaction.
The smile reflected both the sense of accomplishment from completing the traditional custom of pasting Spring Festival couplets and the joy of welcoming the New Year.
"Fish leap over the dragon gate to bid farewell to the old year, orioles sing and swallows chatter to announce the new spring." Yu Huan murmured, "May you have abundance every year."
These are Spring Festival couplets personally selected by my wife. She immediately took a liking to the horizontal scroll that reads "May you have abundance every year".
After finishing this important task, Yu Huan closed the door behind her and slowly walked back inside, where she comfortably slumped into the soft sofa.
He took out his phone from his pocket, thinking he would browse Weibo, and then go prepare breakfast for the two of them.
Given the current immense popularity of "I Am a Singer," the official announcement of two new singers in last night's program preview suggests that even if the Spring Festival Gala dominates the trending topics, it should still generate considerable discussion online.
However, just as he opened the Weibo app, several message notification boxes suddenly popped up at the top of the screen like firecrackers.
Yu Huan looked closely.
The same contact, Wang Xianjiao, sent him a WeChat message.
He raised an eyebrow slightly and then clicked to view:
"Brother Yu, Brother Yu, you must have watched The Singer last night, right?"
"I absolutely loved what Su Su said in the interview during the final trailer! It was so cool!"
'No! I should say sister-in-law! Hehe!'
Yu Huan looked at the screen full of excited messages and couldn't help but smile.
It's practically a done deal that Wang Xianjiao has been poached to his wife's studio.
His fingers flew across the keypad: 'I didn't get home until 11 PM from recording the show, and went straight to sleep. I haven't watched it yet.'
Shortly after the message was sent, there was an immediate response: 'You can check Weibo; your sister-in-law is trending at number one! There are definitely clips edited by marketing accounts in there!'
Yu Huan was somewhat surprised and replied with a simple "Okay".
I then exited WeChat and went to the Weibo trending topics page.
As expected, the top trending topic was '#Lin Su says music should come from the soul#'.
As Yu Huan looked at the words arranged into short sentences, a sense of familiarity inexplicably welled up in her mind.
He couldn't wait to click on the trending search terms, and the most popular Weibo post was a video.
In the video cover, Lin Yourong sits gracefully in a chair, her posture upright, exuding a confident aura.
Her eyes shone with a determined light, and the background behind her was clearly visible—the interview room that appeared many times in the "I Am a Singer" program.
Without hesitation, Yu Huan lightly tapped the play button.
In the video, a voice-over poses a timely question: "Do you feel pressured facing so many veteran musicians?"
On the screen, Lin Yourong slightly raised her chin, her lips moved gently, and her clear and melodious voice came through the speaker.
"Music should come from the soul, not from age and seniority."
There was a pause.
She took a deep breath, her face serious, and continued speaking.
"On the stage of 'The Singer,' I will strive to sing every song well. Thank you."
The video was short and ended quickly.
Yu Huan stared at the screen, and as she looked, she couldn't help but raise her hand to her forehead, a complex mix of emotions welling up inside her.
He suddenly realized why these words sounded familiar; they were exactly what he had said to Lin Yourong in private.
He knew his wife was a pure person, without any ulterior motives, and quite straightforward.
It was no surprise that these words went viral and trended on social media.
On the one hand, he was proud of Lin Yourong's fearless expression of her views and her inner tenacity; on the other hand, he was also somewhat worried, since such remarks might be too sharp these days and could easily make her a target of public criticism and cause unnecessary controversy.
as predicted.
As he scrolled through the more than 8,000 comments, he found that netizens' opinions were clearly polarized. "A newcomer who hasn't even been in the industry for a year, and already so arrogant? Is this 'human rich and powerful flower' trying to erase the qualifications of veteran musicians?"
"Soul music? Anyone can talk big, but don't end up like Yang Chong Wei, getting eliminated in the first round."
Yu Huan's gaze swept over the two most pointed comments, and her brows furrowed slightly.
He knew all too well how terrifying the pressure of public opinion in the entertainment industry could be.
If Lin Yourong were to see these negative comments, it would likely affect her mood during the joyous Chinese New Year.
He continued scrolling down and found that many of the negative comments were rather sarcastic and sarcastic.
The general idea is that Lin Su became arrogant after becoming famous, and some even deliberately dug up some fake news about her diva-like behavior fabricated by marketing accounts several months ago and forcibly linked it to this incident.
Yu Huan clicked on the sub-threads of several popular comments and found that they were also mixed.
The main problem is that a lot of trolls are stirring up trouble, focusing on a few points and relentlessly posting negative reviews, without trying to reason with the young fans or those who support Lin You Rong.
In short, the malice was off the charts.
Yu Huan exited the Weibo video posted by the marketing account, and gently swiped her finger across the screen to navigate to the topic square.
This is quite different from the most popular Weibo post where trolls gathered.
From the perspective of the square, it resonated strongly with many people who don't subscribe to the seniority-based system.
'I can't stand it anytime: Susu said what we've always wanted to say! Music is an expression of the soul. We look forward to her wonderful performance on stage and singing with her soul!' Not only that, the blogger also posted a stunning photo of Lin Yourong on stage, clearly a sapling.
"Don't be like CNN: I'm completely won over by Lin Su's words! She's not only beautiful, but also insightful and profound, with a unique perspective and pursuit of music! I love her!"
Yu Huan's gaze swept across the post and suddenly noticed that there were twenty-seven replies under this Weibo post.
With a touch of curiosity, he casually clicked on it.
Coincidentally, the first popular comment that caught my eye was from 'Jiaojiao who loves Susu': 'Of course! My Susu is the most beautiful girl in the Marxism department! How could she not have depth of thought?'
Yu Huan couldn't help but chuckle softly.
Looking across the entire topic square, many saplings are posting videos, cleverly combining Lin Yourong's wonderful performances on stage with the current trending topics, which even Yu Huan found touching.
Yu Huan noticed a Weibo post from a well-known music blogger with over 200,000 followers.
"YinYuJiang: Last night while watching 'I Am a Singer,' I had a feeling Lin Su's final remarks would spark a heated discussion online. Lin Su is a sincere person who loves music; she has a pure pursuit of it. The current music scene certainly has a seniority-based system, which I believe everyone can see through various music programs. Lin Su's willingness to speak frankly in such an environment is undoubtedly a breath of fresh air. Looking back at Lin Su's previous works, it's clear that her music has a unique style and depth. In short, Lin Su, keep going! We look forward to you proving yourself on stage!"
This Weibo post received tens of thousands of likes and more than two thousand comments.
He glanced through the comments section and was pleased to find that there weren't many trolls causing trouble.
Yu Huan unconsciously rubbed the tip of her chin with her fingers, and the more she thought about it, the more suspicious it seemed. Could it be that the rival on the show was secretly sabotaging her and hiring online trolls to maliciously smear her?
Thinking back to that trending Weibo post at the top of the list, the comment section was filled with a lot of offensive remarks, clearly turning it into a team-building event for trolls.
After making an example of someone to warn others, things quieted down for a while, but now they're making a comeback?
You've got some nerve!
Yu Huan was deep in thought when a message notification popped up on the screen.
He looked closer and saw it was another message from Wang Xianjiao: 'Hehe, saw your sister-in-law trending? Isn't that amazing! She just made a brief appearance in the show preview, and she immediately went straight to number one on the trending list!'
Yu Huan thought of her previous comment, couldn't help but chuckle and shake her head, her fingers slowly tapping out a reply on the screen: 'Pretty impressive.'
Almost immediately after I clicked send, Wang Xianjiao sent another long string of new messages.
"But Brother Yu, please don't take those online troll comments too seriously. That's always been the case in the entertainment industry; the more famous someone is, the more trouble they attract, and the more popular they are, the easier it is to be attacked. I've thought about it carefully, and I feel that Su Su's situation this time isn't really a public opinion crisis at all. On the contrary, more and more people are being captivated by Su Su's charm and becoming her die-hard fans! Take the Xingcheng Little Saplings group for example, more than twenty new members joined today! However, the fan group is managed quite strictly; only those who have purchased Su Su's official merchandise are allowed in."
Yu Huan typed quickly, replying: "That's good, but we still can't let our guard down. We need to pay close attention to online activity. If you notice anything unusual, remember to let me know immediately."
"Brother Yu, you can rest assured! Everyone's keeping a close eye on things, constantly exchanging information and discussing the situation in the 'Little Seedlings' group!" Wang Xianjiao replied instantly, "I told you to join the group, but you wouldn't!"
Yu Huan smiled lightly, replying calmly and without batting an eye: 'No need. Even if I were added, I wouldn't have the time to check. When have you ever seen me participate in the work group?'
That's true.
"I have to go now, I have things to do. Don't forget what I just said, remind me immediately if anything happens!"
"No problem, Brother Yu. Happy New Year's Eve and all the best!"
"Thank you, you too." Yu Huan didn't press Wang Xianjiao for a definite answer about switching jobs to the studio. She clicked send and then exited WeChat.
Everyone has a different perspective and attitude towards the same thing.
Nothing can be viewed from a single perspective; it can be interpreted from multiple angles. Therefore, it is inevitable that some people will take things out of context and start spouting nonsense by focusing on a single aspect.
In short, negative public opinion like this is actually easy to resolve. At the very least, after a few days when the hype dies down, there won't be many trolls coming out to complain anymore.
Alternatively, if Lin Yourong proves through her performance on stage that she truly has the confidence to say those words, then there will be even less reason to criticize her.
What's unsettling is that today is Lunar New Year's Eve, and this topic is trending, attracting a lot of haters to stir up trouble. It's precisely because of the controversy that the topic is so popular, even overshadowing some topics related to the Spring Festival Gala, which is really making him feel like he has a bone stuck in his throat.
Yu Huan frowned, pondered repeatedly in her mind, glanced at the wall clock, and saw that it was already a little past nine o'clock.
He then found Liang Qiaobo's mainland mobile number in his contacts and dialed it without hesitation.
The receiver emitted a "beep beep" waiting tone.
Yu Huan had just started to think about how to start a conversation when the waiting voice suddenly stopped, followed by Liang Qiaobo's gentle Hong Kong-accented Mandarin.
"Xiao Yu, did you call me to confirm with Miss Lin what song we'll be singing next episode?"
Yu Huan's original plan was to choose a fast song suitable for the competition for Lin Yourong, make slight modifications, and help her maintain a top-three ranking. This would prevent her from singing slow songs continuously and causing audience fatigue.
However, after reading through this trending topic from beginning to end, I didn't absorb many of the good comments; all I could think about were the glaringly malicious ones.
It is simply unbearable!
He was even angry at his wife.
As the saying goes, "Man fights for a breath, Buddha fights for a stick of incense," he decided to stop playing it safe and instead unleash a powerful move.
Let those who doubt and smear his wife see what it means to say something based on absolute strength.
