I just want to sell products, but you're forcing me to perform talents.

Chapter 187 Such a beautiful song, you said you wrote several? (Bonus Chapter 8 for Alliance Leader)

Li Yunxi replied irritably, "This is part of the investment in the 'Dream of the Red Chamber' project. The copyright belongs to you, so you'll definitely get a share of the profits! But you'll need to pay extra later!"

Ye Xian nodded and bowed: "Alright, Your Highness, whatever amount you ask for, I'll pay."

Damn it, I absolutely can't let a golden goose that can lay golden eggs for a long time slip through my fingers, otherwise I'll make a scene even if it's the Sixth Princess of the Tang Dynasty.

Li Yunxi casually swiped the screen of the tablet and suddenly said, "Your new song is good! If you don't have time, go out more often, don't always stay cooped up in your little courtyard."

Ye Xian was taken aback, then sincerely thanked him, "Thank you for your concern, Your Highness. I will take good care of myself. Your Highness should also come out and have fun more often; my fireside chats are ready for you."

"Hmph, get ready to leech off my data!"

They're all old foxes, who doesn't know who?

Li Yunxi hung up the phone in annoyance.

Ye Xian chuckled, completely unconcerned about being rebuked by the Sixth Princess.

She then turned around and began communicating with designers and illustrators about the makeup and styling design for Lin Daiyu.

Makeup and styling precede casting. Once the makeup and styling are done, the corresponding roles are found. When the two-dimensional and three-dimensional worlds correspond, it's done.

We absolutely cannot repeat the mistakes of version 10.

The later choices of Jia Baoyu and Lin Daiyu... well...

……

Just three days after the Qingming Festival, many people have already forgotten about this day.

This is the fast-paced life of modern people.

No one dwells too much on past sorrows; everyone is busy making money.

But Ye Xian's new video and song have once again brought everyone back to that sad moment.

"Hello everyone, I'm Ye Xian. I'm a full-time seller, a part-time cook, an occasional singer, and a storyteller in between."

"A few days ago was the Qingming Festival, and I was moved to write a few songs."

The first-person, horizontal camera is shaking rapidly as a stretcher is being pushed quickly forward in a hospital corridor.

A doctor and a nurse walked quickly alongside the stretcher, constantly comforting the pregnant woman on it.

A young man followed behind, his face full of anxiety and worry.

The camera tilts upwards, and bright lights flash by.

Three large, handwritten black characters appeared in the ever-enlarging light.

"I remember"

Small print below: Lyrics/Music/Singing by Ye Xian

The camera pans down, changing the scene to Ye Xian standing at the hospital entrance, while young couples walk into the hospital.

I was carrying luggage that was heavier than my body.

Swimming into the bottom of the Nile

……

Wiping my head, there was no chance to go back.

……

Until I heard a voice and I was sure it was you

But how do you remember me?

... "

This time, Ye Xian seemed to have become an observer or a participant. In the camera's view, he was sometimes the husband of a couple expecting a child, sometimes the husband of a young couple, and sometimes a young child.

Why did Brother Xian suddenly release such a sad song after the Qingming Festival? Couldn't he have released it before the festival?

Am I the only one who understood it? This is a song Ye Xian wrote for his mother?

[Everyone's reading comprehension isn't that bad, okay? It's just that these last few verses of lyrics, if I didn't see the visuals, I would have thought they were just rambling nonsense.]

My little bunny, we'll be meeting in five days! Mommy and Daddy will always love you, and we hope everything goes well.

……

In the scene, Ye Xian transforms into a stay-at-home dad, preparing baby food in the kitchen.

The meat was carefully minced, the vegetables were chopped, and the iron-fortified rice cereal was mixed with water. The steamed minced meat and vegetables were then added, and a bowl of carefully prepared complementary food was placed in front of a baby high chair.

[I'm in tears! I'm filled with love when I make baby food every day, but when I'm feeding this little rascal, I just want to strangle him!]

[Poor Xian Ge. It reminds me of my parents back in our hometown. I haven't called them in ages. I'm going to call them later and tell them how lucky I am to be their daughter.]

I thought my sadness had faded after Qingming Festival, until Xian Ge's song "I Remember" awakened my memories. Dad, I miss you so much.

I was moved to tears. I feel so lucky to still hear such a tranquil piece of music in this noisy era.

……

"Waaaaah"

Come here and give me a hug! Come here and give me a hug!

... "

The scene changes, and Ye Xian is sitting at a dining table with three dishes and a soup in front of him, along with three pairs of chopsticks, but only one person is sitting at the table.

The lonely figure, coupled with the sorrowful cry of "Come hug me," brought many viewers to tears.

Sitting on the sofa, looking at the lonely figure in the camera lens, Qiu's mother couldn't help but reach out and touch the screen: "Child, cry, you'll feel much better after you cry it out."

The song "I Remember" surged to the top of the Kuaiyin Music Rising Chart on the night of its release.

The next afternoon, the song climbed into the top 20 of the Kuaishou (a popular Chinese music streaming platform) hot song chart.

#Ye Xian's "I Remember"

The trending words also surged onto the hot list at the same time.

Ye Xian is no longer an unknown nobody; his every move is watched by nearly 2000 million fans.

No one expected that Ye Xian would release such a tear-jerking song after the Qingming Festival. Some even suspect that if it weren't for Ye Xian's damned obsessive-compulsive disorder—three short videos for one song—this song would probably have been released on the day of the Qingming Festival, instead of April 8th.

Most importantly, many people discovered a keyword in Ye Xian's short videos.

[A renowned poet: Brother Xian, this is such a great song, you said you wrote several of them?]

[The female benefactor has been impregnated: If even "I Remember" is this tear-jerking, what are your plans for releasing the rest of your songs?]

[The daycare is in an uproar: Holy crap, why are you guys being so meticulous? Now we have to wait nine days to hear Ye Xian's new song!]

[A burst of steam: Holy crap, you were right! Xian Ge's three short videos all feature one song, the only exception being when he was arguing with Liu Bohan! Those were the best times! One song every two days! Every day was like a holiday!]

……

Fans of the late-night snack group flooded into Ye Xian's live stream, questioning when he would release his next song.

At this moment, Ye Xian was discussing Lin Daiyu's makeup and styling with Kong Miaomiao and costume designer Wang Xi.

What a coincidence that the director of "Dream of the Red Chamber" is surnamed Jia.

Director Jia sat listening from the side. He was somewhat interested in this live-streaming style, but not particularly enthusiastic. However, the actual results told him that film and television dramas in the new era were quite different from those of the past. So he quickly accepted this format and tried to communicate with the audience in the live-streaming room, asking them for their opinions on "Dream of the Red Chamber," Jia Baoyu, and Lin Daiyu.

Only a small portion of Ye Xian's fans are fans of "Dream of the Red Chamber," but recently, many people have been drawn to Ye Xian's anime-style characters and become fans of Jia Baoyu and Lin Daiyu. As a result, many fans are able to engage in discussions with Director Jia.

Suddenly seeing a bunch of people asking about the new song in the comments section, Director Jia was a little unsure and turned to Ye Xian, saying, "Ye Xian, everyone's asking when your next song will be released?"

Ye Xian turned his head, saw the comments flooding the screen, and smiled.

"Don't rush the new song. We've come up with a few pictures of Lin Daiyu's makeup and styling. Let's all help me choose! Once you've made your selections, everyone will be able to see the casting process for Lin Daiyu very soon."
