Chapter 453 - The Teachers’ Gift Singer Broadcast
Chapter 453: The Teachers’ Gift Singer Broadcast
No matter how controversial the outside world was, Xia Wanyuan was as calm as ever.
It had been more than a week since the recording of “The Singer”. The production team worked overtime to edit and process the post-production and finally finished preparing the program at the end of June.
Watermelon Platform was a television station that occupied a large number of market shares in the country. Normally, the viewership ratings were very high. On this Saturday night, Watermelon Platform officially broadcasted the program “Singer”.
When the program was broadcasted that night, the viewership ratings were still normal. By the time the program ended, the viewership ratings had already increased by more than three times. It directly became the most popular television program that night.
After the television station finished playing, all the major video websites released videos of “Singer” online.
Overnight, this program attracted everyone’s attention.
Watermelon Platform had always been rich and imposing, and the programs it produced were also very exquisite.
At the beginning of the program, a golden microphone appeared out of nowhere amidst the shocking sound effects. Figures appeared from behind the microphone, and the silhouettes of many different singers finally converged into the word “Singer.”
“Welcome to the first episode of Singer. Our theme for this episode is’ Jiangnan ‘.” The host’s melodious voice opened the program’s curtains. “Next, please get to know the ten contestants in this episode with us.”
The large screen began to play the video of the contestants’ appearance.
Figures that everyone was familiar with flashed past. Among them, the most eye-catching was Xia Wanyuan, who was dressed in a cheongsam and had her hair tied up. She turned around and smiled on the bridge.
“Hello, everyone. I’m Xia Wanyuan.”
This smile immediately caused the comments on the video website to increase several times.
In order to show the talents of the artists, Singer used a draw method to choose the songs everyone had to sing. Xia Wanyuan had drawn a very classic old song, “Rain Alley”.
[ Hahahaha, what kind of fate is this? Xia Wanyuan became popular on the Internet because of that photo of “Lilac Lady”. Now, she has drawn the song “Rain Alley”. ]
[ “Rain Alley” isn’t a song that’s easy to sing. It’s a classic old song. ]
The celebrities chosen for the program “Singer” were all very capable. Although Bai Lian was mocked by the entire Internet for pretending to be “Lilac Lady”, everyone had to admit that Bai Lian had some ability.
The style of the song she had drawn was very similar to Xia Wanyuan’s “Rain Alley”. After hearing her sing, the fans broke out in a cold sweat for Xia Wanyuan.
Some fans even dragged the progress bar and skipped other people’s performances to see Xia Wanyuan’s part.
The entire stage was projected into an ancient alley. Xia Wanyuan was wearing a cheongsam as she slowly walked over. It was as if she had walked out of history. Accompanied by mellow music, Xia Wanyuan’s light voice sounded, bringing everyone into the drizzle of Jiangnan.
On the first day of the broadcast, “Singer” ‘s rating on the Douban reached 9.0, and the viewership ratings threw second place far behind.
Various trending searches about the program “Singer” emerged one after another. Among them, the ones who attracted the most attention were “Xia Wanyuan turn around and smile” and “Xia Wanyuan Rain Alley”.
In the “Little Dumpling” fan group, more and more people applied to join the group. The president of the fan club looked at the gradually strengthening fan group and was extremely relieved.
Our Yuan Yuan is really too hardworking. The main character is amazing, and the fan club will be so easy to set up. Even if we did nothing, there are so many new fans.

While “Singer” was about to prepare for the second episode’s recording, Xia Wanyuan received news from the Qing University that the research project she was involved in had become a national demonstration project.
There was another extremely important introduction on Yuan Wanxia’s resume.
His colleagues at Qing University had already gotten along especially well with Yuan Wanxia. After all, although this person was talented, he was very humble and never declined complicated research missions. His colleagues liked this new professor very much.
“Master Yuan, when are you coming out for a meal? Let’s gather too.” A professor tagged Yuan Wanxia in the group and the others echoed.
“After I finish these two projects, I’ll treat everyone to a meal,” Xia Wanyuan replied.
“Okay, then we’ll wait.” Most of his colleagues were professors in their fifties or sixties. In their eyes, Master Yuan Wanxia should be older than them.
Thinking of the many help Yuan Wanxia had given them over the past few days and the fact that it was their colleagues’ first meal together, everyone wanted to prepare a gift for their new colleague.
In the group chat without Yuan Wanxia, the professors shared the greeting gift they had prepared for their new colleague.
There were brushes, inkstones, and ginseng deer antlers. Other than these conventional things, there were also professors who thought about Master Yuan’s health.
There were crutches, health supplements, massage devices, and even a wheelchair that the professor had developed for elderly use.
