#Ye Xian invited to become a guest lecturer at the Beijing Conservatory of Music

#The youngest lecturer in the history of the Beijing Conservatory of Music

#Why did Ye Xian become a lecturer?

#Ye Xian misleads young people

……

The criticism from online trolls and the sarcastic comments from some established singers propelled this already trending topic to the top of the trending searches.

A deep red "Boiling" character appeared in the upper right corner of the topic, indicating that the topic had become a viral sensation.

Compared to public skepticism, the late-night food vendors were making a big fuss.

[Martial Arts Prodigy: Look, look! Whose kid is this? He's become a guest lecturer at the world's number one music academy? A 20-year-old guest lecturer! He's such a source of pride!]

[Using Flesh to Overcome Steel: Hahaha, such achievements in just 4 months since debut? I ask you, in all the years of the Tang Dynasty's entertainment industry, who has ever accomplished this?]

[I'm not sleepy when I go to bed: Oh no, my brother became a university lecturer, but I'm not a student at this school!]

[Kindergarten Turtle: Ugh, so infuriating! Why now? Our Imperial Conservatory of Music is about to have its summer break! Looks like I'll have to wait until next semester to take Xian-ge's class! I'm not stating a Versailles, I'm just stating a fact!]

……

Faced with numerous opinions, Chao Bo from the Beijing Conservatory of Music jokingly said, "Please invite Teacher Ye Xianye to explain the creative process and music theory of songs such as 'Erquan Yingyue,' 'Thoughts Across Time,' 'Illusory Day,' 'Tears,' 'Invisible Wings,' 'Farewell,' 'The Story of Time,' 'So Many People in This World,' 'A Man Should Be Self-reliant,' 'Ten Thousand Frontiers,' and 'Rice Fragrance.'"

The moment the Weibo post was published, the doubts immediately ceased!

The little black guys were dumbfounded!

We've only just made our move, how can you play your trump card right away?

Is Ye Xian's experience sufficient?

If we only consider age, 20 years old is definitely not enough.

If we only consider academic qualifications, the number of students who were advised to drop out is even less.

If we only consider seniority, there are zero awards, so there's no way to mention it.

But this young, undereducated, and award-winning anchor created dozens of popular songs in just four months.

Especially "Erquan Yingyue" and "Farewell," one a erhu piece and the other a song, are simply phenomenal.

"Invisible Wings" and "The Story of Time" are simply superhuman.

This is the biggest difference between celebrities who break out of their niche and those who don't.

Let the works speak for themselves.

Passersby were initially puzzled, but after a little research, they discovered that Ye Xian had so many representative works. In addition, Ye Xian's previous performances at the Haizhou charity event and the opening ceremony of the Tang Dynasty Peony Flower Festival had contributed to his consistently good public image, so these concerns quickly faded away.

The only one causing trouble right now is Xiao Heizi.

[Green Grassland Goalkeeper: Haha, so what if they have works? There are plenty of songwriters who create great songs, but we don't see them being invited to be lecturers!]

[The name is too long to fit here, could you please break it into a new line: By the way, are those works really that good? I just can't stand listening to them, they're all just motivational drivel, I'm tired of hearing them at every morning meeting.]

[You're stepping on my leg hair: Songs that rely on emotional appeal to gain traffic, do you think they can last? I bet these songs will be forgotten in less than three months, just like those viral pop songs! A song that hasn't stood the test of time is a good song? Give me a break!]

[Urinating Three Feet Against the Wind: Anyway, I feel that it's far too hasty for a 20-year-old kid to become a lecturer at the world's top music academy; there's clearly a problem! This isn't the way to get prestige! I heard Ye Xian isn't planning to release an album; is it because he's afraid of not winning awards, so he chose this method to silence public criticism?]

……

At this chaotic moment, the Royal Observer praised Ye Xian for the fifth time.

"Recently, Ye Xian's 'invitation to become a guest lecturer at the Imperial Conservatory of Music' became the top trending topic. This is perfectly reasonable, as it is a matter between the Imperial Conservatory of Music and Ye Xian, and both parties are willing to participate."

However, with one being the world's number one music academy and the other a newly popular star, this combination seems to have been met with skepticism from the public who are unaware of the facts and attacks from some online trolls.

Admittedly, Ye Xian is just a 20-year-old online streamer with no real experience. He was forced to quit, and his education level is only equivalent to that of a high school student.

It's rather bizarre and illogical that someone like that would be hired as a lecturer at the world's number one music academy.

However, Ye Xian's excellence lies precisely in the fact that age, education, and experience cannot limit him from writing so many outstanding works.

According to an interview with the dean of the Beijing Conservatory of Music, the main reason that prompted the conservatory to hire Ye Xian was his repertoire of erhu pieces such as "Moon Reflected in the Second Spring," the farewell song "Farewell," the inspirational song "Invisible Wings," the youthful song "The Story of Time," the charity song "Rice Fragrance," the folk songs "Ten Thousand Frontiers" and "Song of the Peony," and the piano pieces "Thoughts Across Time," "Illusory Day," and "Tears."

Looking closely, all of Ye Xian's songs that were valued by the Imperial Conservatory of Music are masterpieces, and these songs just happen to come from a 20-year-old streamer with no qualifications or education.

Is Ye Xian qualified to teach others?

Those who have doubts should write a masterpiece that can be compared to the songs above before raising their objections.

Is Ye Xian qualified to be a lecturer?

Those who question this, please write 10 excellent works of the same level as the songs above before you start questioning.

If these 10 songs by Ye Xian aren't enough, please listen to his other 29 songs, as well as the new song he will release today, the new song he wrote for Ding Ding, and a song he composed for square dancing.

How many established singers are lining up to have him write songs? How many outstanding graduates from the Beijing Conservatory of Music are there? How many big-budget films and TV dramas are eagerly awaiting his theme songs?

The song "Dear, That's Not Love" made a TV series a hit, and even led to the series being renamed. Who could do that?

The Tang Dynasty stood at the pinnacle of the world for over 1,500 years, never judging talent based on academic qualifications or seniority. Were Li Bai honored as the "Poet Immortal" and Du Fu as the "Poet Sage" because of their academic qualifications and seniority?

Ye Xian is no match for the poet Li Bai, let alone the poet Du Fu.

But with just these 10 songs, he has already dealt a devastating blow to those who nowadays use AI to write songs, use three chords to create catchy tunes, use anagrams to fill in songs to pretend they are high-class, use anagrams to win the Golden Melody Award in Chinese music, use rap to fill in songs to make them seem trendy and niche, use electronic music to pretend they are high-class, have no representative works or hit songs but call themselves gods in the Chinese music scene, and sing off-key/inaccurate/cracked/lacking breath when they sing live. This should be enough.

If Ye Xian accidentally overturns your livelihood, infringes on your interests, or takes away your share of the pie, please speak up loudly and stand up bravely. Don't use online trolls to smear a talented young man.

Let your words speak for themselves through your works.

Your website should be defined by its content.

Don't resort to these petty tricks; the Tang Dynasty was never a place that buried talent.

If you were truly talented, how could the music scene of the Tang Dynasty have stagnated for nearly 20 years?

If seniority were truly the deciding factor, how could the music industry allow Ye Xian, a 20-year-old who has only been in the industry for four months, to dominate all the charts? For four whole months, no one dared to challenge him.

If academic qualifications are truly required, then does the Central South Conservatory of Music really care about this child who has just lost both parents?

If a single announcement can condemn such a talented young person to death, then it's no wonder that the world's number one music academy invites him to be a guest lecturer.

The Imperial Conservatory of Music has no intention of starting a conflict; it is simply recognizing a rising star in the music industry.

... "

The Royal Observer's blunt praise and strong criticism of the Central South Conservatory of Music immediately caused a huge uproar online.

This time, everyone's attention is focused on the Central South Conservatory of Music.
