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

Chapter 281 Where the Heart Leads, Braving the Waves

Inside the magazine "Fashion," there was a photo of Ye Xian and the team members of Cape No. 7 winning the championship.

Ye Xian and his teammates raised the trophy and prize—a roasted pig—high, and a happy smile bloomed on Ye Xian's face.

"...As mentioned in the last episode, the aesthetics of young people in the Tang Dynasty are now distorted, with androgynous beauty and effeminate men being considered beautiful."

This trend was completely broken by the appearance of one person.

In March, Ye Xian conquered young people and the music scene with his songs. At that time, he was full of vigor and became a rising star in the entertainment industry.

In April, Ye Xian set a fashion example for young people, embodying the spirit of never giving up and facing challenges head-on. He demonstrated what it means to forge ahead and interpreted the meaning of boundless love.

In May, Ye Xian spearheaded the revival of Tang suits and Hanfu, sparking a retro trend and shaping correct values ​​for young people, helping them regain confidence in Tang suits and Hanfu.

In June, Ye Xian became a second-tier top star, but he followed in his father's footsteps and participated in the Haizhou Amateur Dragon Boat Race, winning the championship with his teammates.

Ye Xian doesn't seem like a celebrity in the traditional sense. He doesn't participate in commercial performances or casually accept gigs. He's just like an ordinary boy next door.

She eats the same food as everyone else, wears ordinary clothes, and likes to cook delicious meals for everyone whenever she has free time.

But this boy next door, while becoming a top star, also picked up his father's oars and resolutely devoted himself to dragon boat training.

He runs 10 kilometers every day, does strength training, team training, and dragon boat training. During the day, he insists on filming, and at night he insists on live streaming. He also insists on taking acting, dance, and vocal lessons every day.

He's like a tireless machine, constantly working hard.

This hard work has brought him continuous success, making him a true idol that young people can admire.

……

I don't know when it started, but "celebrity" has become a negative word.

When people mention celebrities, they feel that bad things are bound to happen—problems like scandals, diva-like behavior, etc.

A variety show can have five or six different formats because some celebrities don't get along, can't stand each other, or act like divas.

For the sake of a grand finale appearance on the red carpet, the program could be interrupted for tens of minutes, leaving reporters and fans waiting in the cold wind.

A young, handsome actor who calls 120 for every little cut on his finger, who recites numbers instead of lines when acting, who only appears on screen with his own headshot, who constantly causes scandals, who discusses scripts in hotel rooms late at night, and who wears socks that cost 600 yuan a pair...

These upsetting things have made the entire entertainment industry a mess.

What is a celebrity?

Only those who can become pioneers of the times, role models of positive energy, and leaders of social justice should be called stars.

Now, a 20-year-old is showing everyone what a celebrity should be like through his actions.

The dragon boat race championship was achieved through the hard work and dedication of Ye Xian and his team members. This effort demonstrated Ye Xian's indomitable fighting spirit.

His success may be partly due to his musical talent, but I believe that his hard work and perseverance are the fundamental reasons for his success.

Fashion is not narrow-minded.

Fashion that leads the trend is what we should advocate.

Finally, let's conclude with the words Ye Xian gave to his teammates and fans, which I offer to today's celebrities and all readers. In my opinion, this is the kind of fashion that should be popular.

A young man should soar to great heights, reaching for the stars and chasing the sun!

Where the heart leads, we ride the wind and waves, and achieve resounding victory!

[Martial Arts Adorable One: My darlings, I'm so excited I don't even know what it means anymore! My little one is so amazing, I don't even know how to praise him enough!]

[Overcoming Strength with Flesh: Four Issues! Appearing on the cover of "Fashion" magazine for four consecutive issues—if I didn't know just how outstanding Xian Ge is, I'd really suspect he's having an affair with that editor-in-chief named Shen Wen!]

[Habitually naive: Don't spread rumors! Shen Wen is a very influential editor-in-chief in the fashion industry. She chose Xian Ge as her cover star not because he's handsome—of course, he really is!—but because of what he's done in the past few months, which represents the spirit advocated by the Tang Dynasty! The article has already made it very clear. Why wouldn't we promote celebrities like him, instead of those whose careers are constantly jeopardized?]

[Silly Fairy: Forget all that nonsense, I just want to ask, who can give me a copy of *Fashion* magazine? I haven't managed to get one for four issues in a row!]

……

From initial surprise and jubilation to current composure, late-night snack enthusiasts have gotten used to it.

They are very proud of the idol they support, unlike older brothers like Ai Lele and Hua Yuyu who are ridiculed and constantly subjected to tired jokes about playing basketball or being a god in the music industry, and most importantly, their popularity doesn't even go beyond their niche.

Basically, you don't need to recommend it to the people next to you; many people will spontaneously choose it as a late-night snack.

They don't need to be like some brainless fans, dragging their friends to sit in front of the computer and telling them how handsome their idol is when he holds the microphone, how beautiful his profile is, how amazing his dance moves are, or whose haute couture clothes he's wearing that only their idol can wear, and so on.

It must have been really tough on those friends. On the surface, they pretended to be really handsome and liked it, but inside they were cursing. Holding the microphone like that was obviously unprofessional. It didn't record the sound and easily revealed their breathing.

Ye Xian's positive energy inspires many young people and is also regarded as a role model for many parents in educating their children.

To be honest, Ye Xian is the kind of "other people's child" that many parents admire.

From a young age, he took various extracurricular classes and was admitted to a prestigious university.

I will grow up to be an all-around star, able to earn money and not rely on my parents.

From a young age, he was well-behaved and never caused trouble.

Growing up, the only black mark left was being expelled from university, which is a pity. But now, he has turned things around and become a visiting lecturer at the world's number one music academy, which is much more impressive than being expelled.

She's good-looking and talented.

She can cook and take care of people.

He knows how to respect the elderly and care for the young, and avoids trouble, except that he has a few more girls around him.

The thing is, it's normal for such an outstanding young man to have many girls around him; it would be abnormal if he didn't!

Who wouldn't want their child to grow up to be like Ye Xian?

This is also one of the important reasons why Ye Xian was able to quickly gain popularity.

There's a reason why I've been on the cover of "Fashion" magazine four times.

Shen Wen's determination stems from her strong advocacy of a fashion philosophy, rather than merely superficial fashion attire.

Fashion magazines that set trends.

In the past, setting a trend in clothing would inspire others to follow suit.

In today's decentralized, diversified, and overproduced world, no fashion trend can compare to the individual choices of young people. Can you imagine that everyone will be commuting to get off work in wheelchairs?

Since they all use wheelchairs to commute to get off work, does it still matter that much whether you wear a skirt or capri pants?

Young people are all wearing horse-face skirts now, and you're still carrying luxury woven bags and plastic sandals, trying to look like a fashionista?

Online shopping performance is declining sharply, with clothing experiencing the most significant drop. Clothing also has the highest return rate. For example, the return rate for women's clothing on Kuaiyin is over 70%. Can you believe it?

People have moved beyond the era of material scarcity, and spiritual pursuits have begun to outweigh material pursuits.

The fact that Fashion Magazine selected Ye Xian four times is less about choosing a trend and more about choosing a trend concept.

Times have truly changed.

Under the prevailing trends of this great era.

A wave belonging to Ye Xian is coming.
