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

Chapter 268 was so exhilarating!

The "First Nighttime Karaoke Party" went awry, something Ye Xian hadn't anticipated.

This is precisely the charm of "fast music"—a new trend emerges without anyone even realizing it.

This is different from the trend of popular dances and songs deliberately guided by capital.

The new trend lies in the natural combination of dialects and the performer's individuality.

Dialects are a common method used by many bloggers on Kuaiyin (TikTok) when creating accounts, and they are also a favorite meme to play with.

Because dialect memes can quickly attract the love of locals and some interested people from other places to watch, but often dialect meme accounts can't leave the province, and very few can become popular all over the Tang Dynasty with dialect memes.

The main reason for this is that there aren't many fun ones to make.

The "First Nighttime Singing Party" became popular because of the dialect jokes. Since everyone sang Ye Xian's songs with the same lyrics, the humor of different dialects easily attracted everyone's love.

At this point, people are no longer concerned about a province, but rather about how the same song sounds when sung in different dialects.

This desire to explore the unknown far outweighs the dialect jokes themselves, which is why the "First Nighttime Singing Party" became popular in this way.

In addition to the singers participating in the competition.

There is a charming and adorable girl from Donghe Province with top-notch makeup skills.

There is a girl from Bailuo Province who is skilled in head transplantation.

There are inland girls who are masters of beauty filters.

There are handsome young men from Thai-Vietnamese province, regardless of gender.

There is a wealthy man from the province of Dashi who wears a cloth over his head.

There are trainees from record labels and tall, attractive women from MCN agencies.

There were burly, strong men from the Shilian Province...

Off-key, out of tune, panting...

This fun thing has far surpassed the competition itself.

Once something becomes interesting and fun, it will naturally go viral.

……

Ye Xian clicked on the various short videos of contestants under the hashtag #FirstLateNightSnackSingingFansGathering, and his lips twitched.

The top-voted song right now is actually a South Indian singer from Shanxi Province with a standard South Indian makeup look, imitating the style of South Indian songs, singing "Burning Love".

The intense tingling sensation made Ye Xian instinctively cover his ears and eyes.

This is so offensive!

That's an insult to my ears!

Startled, he quickly threw his phone away and then discussed Liu Bohan's matter with Ding Zhan.

"Should we take this opportunity to 'assault' him?"

Hearing this from the side, Qiu's mother raised her hand and lightly slapped Ye Xian: "You're a big star now, watch your manners when you speak."

Ye Xian chuckled dryly. He always forgot this point; his speech and actions were no different from those of an ordinary person.

There's nothing that can be done about it; Ye Xian's rise to fame was too fast, so fast it dazzled the entire entertainment industry.

Many top celebrities are like this: after becoming famous overnight, if they lack good character and can't maintain their popularity, they are easily exposed and their careers collapse.

Isn't Fanfan, who operates a sewing machine, just like that?

Ye Xian is just an ordinary person. Even though he has been well-mannered since childhood, he still habitually makes jokes.

Ding Zhan shook his head and said, "This timing is not very good! It might cause him a lot of damage, because while we might feel good about ourselves by stepping on him, it won't be of much help to you."

I was originally planning to wait until you reached the top tier before slapping him in the face, so that he wouldn't have a chance to recover! But to reach the top tier, you need an award with sufficient prestige, and since you don't want to release an album, that's a bit of a problem.

We can wait and see how they play their cards. Then, in the next few days, you can go to the capital to accept your appointment at the Beijing Conservatory of Music. Once you're in charge, your words will carry more weight.

Speaking of this, Qiu's mother immediately beamed: "Ye Xian, you really made the Ye family proud this time! The world's number one music academy sent you an invitation. Putting aside your celebrity status, you're doing much better than your mother and me now! You're a university lecturer!"

If Old Ye knew this in the afterlife, he'd probably be laughing in his sleep.

Even the usually composed Ye Xian couldn't help but get excited: "We really have to thank Teacher Huang Xiang and Teacher Jiang Wei for this. Both of them have put in so much effort. And, of course, the Sixth Princess! I'm sure she definitely contributed as well!"

Ye Xian didn't care too much about this identity. To be honest, if he were given it, he would have more pressure and more work to do. But Ye Xian from Blue Star cared about this.

Lan Xingye Xian has a musical lineage, so he can be considered from a scholarly family.

Now that he's finally able to go ashore and have a legitimate identity, Ye Xian from Lanxing is genuinely happy.

This made Ye Xian happy as well.

It's worth noting that recently, the pressure and anxiety surrounding employment has begun to spread, with medical school doctoral students taking on jobs as middle school health workers and graduate students and overseas returnee graduate students taking on jobs as dormitory managers. Everyone is taking pride in securing a job.

There's a saying that goes something like this: once you get ashore, you're free.

……

Ding Zhan wholeheartedly agreed: "Indeed! Even if you're a student who was expelled, no matter how amazing your songs are, the Imperial Conservatory of Music has that kind of prestige; they won't care much about a junior like you. Sixth Princess is clearly setting an example, promoting positive energy to the whole society!"

Ye Xian opened his phone again; it was a statement released on the official website of the Imperial Conservatory of Music.

"To all secondary colleges, departments, and affiliated institutions:"

It is hereby decided to appoint Comrade Ye Xian as a visiting lecturer at the Imperial Conservatory of Music, lecturing on vocal and instrumental music, for a term of...

The statement from the Beijing Conservatory of Music was brief and powerful, yet it stirred up a huge uproar online.

[Kneel down and call me brother: The Beijing Conservatory of Music hired a singer as a guest lecturer? Are they crazy? Did they buy it?]

[The Broken Earthworm: Thank goodness he's not a visiting professor, otherwise I would have reported him! This is outrageous!]

[Chicken Essence Toothpaste: This is the world's number one academy! Where's your prestige? Where's your status? How could you lower yourself to hire a nobody singer?]

[Thinking Money, Thinking Thickly: If you say there's no under-the-table dealing involved, I'm the first to disagree! What can a 20-year-old guest lecturer talk about? That his family owns a mine?]

……

Kanye West, Liu Bohan, and the online trolls and haters of some established singers immediately swarmed in.

[When the Chrysanthemums Bloom: A 20-year-old lecturer—could things get any more outrageous? Even the world's number one academy wouldn't do something like this, would it?]

[Wind blows, butt poop flies: Is the Beijing Conservatory of Music slapping the Central South Conservatory of Music in the face? They're inviting students the Central South Conservatory of Music rejected to be lecturers—do they even want to see each other again?]

[My wife's husband is so handsome: I strongly question this. What qualifications does a student who was expelled for skipping classes and failing courses have to be a teacher? Isn't this setting a bad example for students?]

[Chasing an elephant on a snail's pace: Boycott Ye Xian! He's shameless in his pursuit of fame! He's just a pop singer, with no major awards or musical achievements, so why did he become a lecturer at the world's number one music academy? There's definitely something fishy going on! We urge the relevant departments to investigate thoroughly!]

……

Xiao Heizi would definitely not let such a good opportunity slip by. Even though Liu Bohan was forbidden by Sister Lan from making any moves, he would never let such a good opportunity pass him by.

Some established singers also disagreed with Ye Xian becoming a lecturer. How were they supposed to feel about this? Wasn't this a slap in the face?

In any case, we can't let that bastard Ye Xian become a lecturer so easily.
