Chapter 144 Ye Xian, He's Gone Mad!

Chapter 145 Ye Xian, He's Gone Mad!

On March 10, Ye Xian released his new song.

After two days of buzz, Ye Xian's new song "Goodbye" has quickly gone viral, spreading rapidly throughout various universities.

In mid-March, many graduating seniors had already started looking for internships. Those with high qualifications and good luck had already received job offers, while others continued to study hard at school, preparing for postgraduate entrance exams and civil service exams.

The farewells have already begun, and all everyone is waiting for is to receive their degree certificates at the graduation ceremony.

The annual graduation concert jointly organized by the three major music conservatories is held in March to warm up the audience in advance, provide an opportunity for outstanding graduates to showcase themselves, and also hope that some graduates can take advantage of the graduation season to gain fame and officially enter the music scene.

Therefore, every year from March to June, all sorts of graduation season hit songs emerge, either old song covers or new songs that become legendary.

Liu Bohan and Sister Hong attach great importance to the graduation season concert. Liu Bohan is willing to lower his head and share the stage with Ye Xian. One reason is to show his face in front of the senior and strive for a better opportunity. The other reason is that he hopes to break into the ranks of first-class singers with the song "Farewell".

However, Liu Bohan never expected that his impulsive act of losing his mind would bring forth Ye Xian.

This kid's gone berserk.

……

Thanks to Liu Bohan's popularity, "Goodbye" immediately topped the trending searches.

The short video garnered over 800 million views in less than two days.

"Goodbye" quickly became a hit among students at various universities, and the song was sung in many dormitories and colleges.

The number of users of the music directly exceeded 80.

Cover versions are springing up like mushrooms after rain.

This is only because of the tight schedule. If Ye Xian had more time, this song would definitely have made it into the top three of the Kuaishou (a popular Chinese music streaming platform) charts.

The problem is that Ye Xian has more than just one song on the charts. Songs like "Youth," "Laughing at the World," "I Believe," and "The Brightest Star in the Night Sky" have already dominated the charts!

Right now, seven or eight out of ten popular songs on Kuaishou are by Ye Xian!

If you watch ten short videos, at least half of them use Ye Xian's chorus as background music!

Even "Dear, That's Not Love," a song Ye Xian wrote for Jiang Tian, has firmly secured its place in the top ten of the hot song charts, further solidifying Jiang Tian's position as a second-tier star!

What does this mean?

Perhaps Ye Xian isn't popular enough.

But his songs have already gone viral.

……

At this moment, Liu Bohan was sitting in his office, looking at his phone along with Sister Hong.

Both of them were waiting for Ye Xian's new song.

Neither of them spoke.

Hongjie is completely disappointed and has formally told the board that she is tired and wants to find a new person to mentor her.

Anyway, even if I stop managing Liu Bohan, the company will still give me dividends. I have more than just Liu Bohan under my name, so even if my income is less, it won't be by much. At least I won't have to suffer like this anymore.

This is the source of a top agent's confidence.

A new agent is being selected; Sister Hong is simply fulfilling her final duty.

Moreover, Sister Hong believes she has done right by Liu Bohan, having brought him to his current position and even pulled him back from crisis management more than once.

This time, too.

However, Liu Bohan is increasingly disappointing to her now. Ye Xian's matter is only one aspect. This time, his failure to break into the top tier of singers with "Farewell" has also made her realize that Liu Bohan's potential has reached its limit.

This is the real reason why the two broke up.

The market response to "Farewell" has been lukewarm. Released two days earlier than "Goodbye," its current data on Kuaishou is less than half that of "Goodbye." If it weren't for the support of a large fan base who paid for the song, and if it weren't for the large fan base boosting the data, this song would probably have already flopped.

The problem is that, as anyone with a discerning eye can see, a significant portion of these massive fan bases are inflated.

The failure of one song proves nothing.

However, this was Liu Bohan's fifth failed attempt to become a top-tier singer.

If it weren't for the marketing budget spent by mainstream media, the current deluge of reports wouldn't be praising Liu Bohan's new song "Farewell," but rather highlighting his repeated failures.

Most importantly, major internet platforms, especially Kuaishou, cannot suppress it.

Various marketing accounts and small media outlets have already started digging up data, doing analysis, and spreading rumors.

Times have changed, and this data is now transparent.

A few years ago, it was possible to buy data to fool the public, but now it's difficult to do so.

……

Liu Bohan had also received news that Sister Hong wanted to break up. He understood that Sister Hong was disappointed by his stupidity, but he did not think he was wrong.

A mere Ye Xian is nothing to fear and cannot affect me in the slightest, but a fully grown Ye Xian can definitely shake my position.

He is also a graduate of the Central South Conservatory of Music, so he must have his own discernment when it comes to music. He knows every song Ye Xian sings very well.

This is not a good piece of music that I could have written or composed myself.

If it weren't for the company's vast resources and the constant support of my aunt's connections, I wouldn't have reached my current position as a second-tier singer.

Therefore, Liu Bohan was very clear that Ye Xian had to be eliminated.

Unfortunately, everyone thought he had chosen the wrong approach.

……

17: 00.

Ye Xian's Kuaiyin account is updated on time.

The two of them perked up, turned on their phones, and instead of looking at Ye Xian's flashy images, they listened to Ye Xian's new song.

The day I knew you were leaving

We didn't say a word.

……

The crowded platform squeezed the people saying goodbye.

But it couldn't dispel my deep sorrow of parting.

... "

Liu Bohan frowned: "This song has such an old-fashioned style!"

Sister Hong nodded without saying anything. The opening cello and piano melody was not complicated, but it was very catchy. The cello was the most suitable instrument to express the faint sorrow of parting.

The lyrics are also very simple, even straightforwardly simple.

But it is precisely these simple lyrics that evoke such vivid imagery.

"When you shoulder your baggage and lay down that glory"

I can only keep my tears inside.

……

My deepest blessings to you, my dearest friend.

Have a safe trip!

... "

The cello runs throughout the song, punctuated by the piano. After listening to the song, Sister Hong pursed her red lips.

"Give up! This song is no worse than your 'Farewell,' and it's even more heartfelt!"

Liu Bohan sat blankly on the sofa, without saying a word.

He wasn't an amateur; he could naturally tell that although the song's style was old, the simpler the song, the more impactful it was.

It may not be as upbeat as "Goodbye," but it is definitely more emotionally resonant. This kind of song is the easiest to empathize with when it comes to farewell songs.

You can tell this just by looking at the comments.

My internship is about to start, and I have so much to say, but I don't dare to say it!

Goodbye, my roommates of four years! Best wishes for your future endeavors!

True graduation isn't about leaving the school, it's about the group of people dispersing.

[I didn't feel anything at first, but when the song started, I suddenly realized that I was really graduating this time, and I was really leaving campus!]

……

If I had a face like that, I could charm a huge number of female fans just by singing a few random lines!

[Young heartthrobs, look what it means to be both talented and good-looking!!]

[Thank you, Brother Han, because of you, we were able to hear such a beautiful graduation song!]

Thank you, Brother Han. I really couldn't bear to listen to your "Farewell," but this song, "Wish You a Safe Journey," brought me to tears!

……

Seeing the piles of "Thank you, Brother Han" messages, Liu Bohan got so angry that he picked up the ashtray next to him again and smashed it on the ground.

"These bastards!"

Sister Hong stood up and walked out of the office without saying another word.

That was my last attempt to persuade him.

It seems that it still has no effect.

Let's part ways amicably then!

Yes, the lyrics of Ye Xian's new song are quite fitting for the occasion.

Have a safe trip!
