Transmigrating to the 80s to Become Stepmom to Five Bigwigs

Chapter 370: This Is For the Mentally Ill

After Xiao Wu and his assisting performers went down, the applause didn’t stop for a long time. Mu Jingzhe followed suit and clapped until her hands were red and started to hurt.

Everyone who had been worried about Xiao Wu heaved a sigh of relief. This time was different from last time, when everyone hadn’t been able to understand. Many people could sense the effect of this song. No one had expected it to be like this, but it did relieve one’s pain.

The judges couldn’t care less about anything else and started whispering enthusiastically again. They pointed at the information provided by Xiao Wu and kept talking.

Later on, everyone found out that Xiao Wu’s music was specifically targeted at people who were particularly depressed.

Xiao Wu’s music was deeply influenced by what Mu Jingzhe had said this time. If one had to define it, one would say that it probably targeted certain forms of depression. action

At the time, the concept of depression had yet to be proposed, nor was there any medical evidence for it. Many people in the modern era were aware of it and knew how dangerous it was. However, at the time, no one understood. People with more serious conditions were directly called crazy or lunatics.

Even if one committed suicide, no one would know that it was because one was sick.

At the time, depression naturally wasn’t as common as in later generations, but that didn’t mean that it didn’t exist. Many people had mild or even severe depression. They would relapse every now and then, but no one understood.

The people Xiao Wu had interacted with previously were depressed patients. In the end, he had composed this song, which could be considered a way to vent and provide comfort. It brought warmth, and many of the 10,000 people present felt much better.

Without any controversy, Xiao Wu’s completely different tune was broadcast widely. Unlike his previous music for autistic patients, this time, many people listened to the song and the effects were more extensive because everyone felt their own pain and pressure deep down. Only the extent of it differed.

Although people still didn’t know about depression, the comforting effects of the music were solid. In the end, he undoubtedly won first place in the final.

The second and third place were the two songs that had left an impression on everyone previously. Conan didn’t place in the top three, but he had no objections this time, as he had been convinced. When Xiao Wu went up to receive the award, Conan clapped the loudest and was even happier than when he had received an award.

Although he had lost the competition, Conan had matured quite a bit. Now that he knew that there would always be someone better than him, even his personality had changed quite a bit. He had grown much steadier and left behind his arrogant, condescending manner.

Many countries broadcasted the final. Those who listened to the broadcast were addicted. The songs of this competition were the starting point for Xiao Wu to become a world-class musician. These two songs also became unsurpassable classics. Even decades later, when people listened to them again, they still felt that these classics were useful.

Regardless of whether they were used for autism or later for depression, they always worked. Later on, the two songs became typical representations of music therapy.

Xiao Wu’s tunes became the salvation of many depression cases down the road. Many milder cases improved by pairing treatment with Xiao Wu’s music. The effect was obvious.

Many people in later generations couldn’t believe that this had been composed by a child, but in reality, it had.

Xiao Wu didn’t know how he would be evaluated in the future, but he had also gained a lot in reality.

The contestants and judges gave the highest evaluation of his songs, and he also made many friends. Many music schools invited Xiao Wu to enroll in the future as well. It could be said that he had received an invitation from famous schools in advance.

Later on, Xiao Wu received many thank-you letters and phone calls from the radio station. People were thanking Xiao Wu for his song.

Then, another piece of news made Xiao Wu’s popularity soar to new heights. In the news was a woman whose husband had died in an accident and who had originally planned to commit suicide. However, in the end, she had accidentally heard Xiao Wu’s song and chosen to live instead.

The woman was especially grateful to Xiao Wu. People started calling Xiao Wu ‘Little Angel’ again. Healing everyone and giving them warmth and strength became Xiao Wu’s specialty.

The movies that Xiao Wu created a soundtrack for became even more popular. Many people who hadn’t dared to watch the horror movie went to watch it now just to hear Xiao Wu’s soundtrack. In the end, they were frightened quite badly by Xiao Wu’s music.

Xiao Wu’s album also sold very well. Then, many people approached him, wanting to collaborate with him. This time, it wasn’t just about movie soundtracks. Many people also approached Xiao Wu to produce a second album for him. There were also a lot of other collaborations on the table.

As long as a proposal was suitable, he would accept it. If it wasn’t, he would reject it. Xiao Wu took the time to produce his second album, which mainly featured the two songs he had created at the competition. After the album was finished, it started selling immediately. It was launched very quickly because people couldn’t wait.

The commotion was bigger than before, as this time, it wasn’t only targeting the domestic market, but also the international market.

Xiao Wu recorded the album while attending school. It was even better than his previous album. As soon as it was released, the sales began to rise steadily. More and more people were calling for Xiao Wu to have a world tour.

They weren’t satisfied with just listening to the album and wanted to listen to his music live. There were more and more people requesting it, making it difficult to ignore them.

Xiao Wu had never thought of holding a concert himself, but he had listened to many people’s concerts, so he had dreamed of having one himself. He just hadn’t expected to have the chance so soon.

Xiao Wu wasn’t afraid. After some discussion during this period, they decided to hold one concert for Xiao Wu first. Xiao Wu could decide which guest performers to invite himself. The concert would be held in the largest, best concert hall in Ocean City.

Because of Xiao Wu, Ocean City placed a lot of importance on music and now had a top-notch concert hall. Xiao Wu was very honored to be the first person to hold a concert there. The concert hall was also very honored to host Xiao Wu’s first concert ever, and everyone was very cooperative.

Usually, such concerts would sell tickets in advance. Xiao Wu’s concert was no exception. When the news spread, many people said that they had to snatch the tickets up. Many people overseas also said that they had to come and see if they could get their hands on some tickets. Alas, there weren’t many tickets, so whether one could obtain tickets would depend on their luck.

Compared to ordinary tickets, the tickets to this concert weren’t cheap. However, once they were available, they quickly sold out. Many people queued up overnight to buy tickets.

In the end, some people managed to buy tickets, while others didn’t. Those who had managed to buy tickets were very proud, while those who hadn’t were frustrated.

Old Master Ji felt overjoyed and proud, as he had a family ticket!

In the past, Old Master Ji hadn’t liked it when his old friends had kept mentioning their grandchildren. He used to feel that it was very boring, but ever since he had found Xiao Wu, he had become the craziest one. He went on and on about Xiao Wu to everyone he met. Everyone knew that Old Master Ji treasured Xiao Wu the most now. Besides, this child was really promising.

Old Master Ji was the happiest about Xiao Wu’s achievements. From then on, Xiao Wu’s newspaper articles never left his hands. He even bought a tape recorder and played Xiao Wu’s album every day. He had completely become Xiao Wu’s fan.

Previously, when Xiao Wu had been suspected and scolded, Old Master Ji had defended him. Because he couldn’t bear to hear people scold Xiao Wu, he had even fought with someone. He, an old man, had beaten up two young men until they couldn’t retaliate and had successfully ended up in the police station.
