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

Chapter 298 Let's be proudly stubborn together!

[Just stay in your comfort zone! Rap isn't something a singer of your caliber can do!]

[He truly is an inspirational singer; he's so much better without the rap!]

[Ye Xian should really sing inspirational songs like this; they're so much better than your nonsensical rap!]

Stay away, don't get involved! Rap is not something you can handle.

……

Among the dense barrage of comments, some voices stood out particularly.

Bai Jie, who was browsing short videos of Ye Xian's new song, frowned her pretty eyebrows and couldn't help but pick up her phone to call Ding Zhan.

"Old Ding, your Ye Xian is being targeted by those rappers again!"

Ding Zhan's cheerful voice came through the microphone: "Ye Xian doesn't want to go to war with them and has been advising them to handle this calmly."

Bai Jie sneered, "Treat it coldly? I see the comments on the new song are full of their insults and sarcastic remarks; they're clearly trying to stir up trouble."

Ding Zhan's tone rose slightly: "Here we go again? Are you determined to keep bringing this up?"

Bai Jie said worriedly, "Rappers are all temperamental. I suspect they're planning to conspire to mess with Ye Xian."

Ding Zhan paused for a moment, then said, "Do you have any news from your side? Who's behind this?"

Bai Jie laughed in exasperation: "What kind of manager are you? Can't you even ask around in the industry yourself?!"

Ding Zhan laughed too: "Aren't you someone in the industry? Who has better information than Miss Bai?"

"Come on, you smooth talker."

Bai Jie couldn't help but roll her eyes and said leisurely, "I don't know who started it, but my previous artist Dafei should have been involved. He's been blacklisted by me now, so he must be holding a grudge."

Also, there was a rapper named Xiaosheng who supposedly had some conflict with Ye Xian when walking the red carpet, and he was probably involved as well.

Besides, I don't know who else rappers were involved. I hadn't paid much attention to this before, but I just remembered after seeing the comments.

Ding Zhan nodded and said, "I understand. I'll inquire further. Thank you so much!"

Bai Jie snorted coldly, "Remember, you owe me one more time!"

Ding Zhan awkwardly hung up the phone. This woman was too difficult to deal with.

……

Bai Jie hung up the phone, remained silent for a moment, and continued watching the short video on her phone.

Ye Xian's new song "Stubborn" is a rare light rock song. The attitude expressed in the lyrics can be understood even by Bai Jie, who is not a professional musician.

In the past few months, Ye Xian has reached his peak right from the start, becoming a superstar in just five months. Naturally, there has been a lot of controversy surrounding him.

School expulsion controversy, online confrontation with Liu Bohan, Liu Bohan's house collapse incident, guest lecturer controversy at the world's number one ranked academy, square dance hit song controversy, debut of the fifth girl group, live broadcast of "Dream of the Red Chamber", donation of 400 million yuan, joint charity performance with the sixth princess...

It would have been better if she hadn't counted them. But after a moment's recollection, Bai Jie suddenly realized that Ye Xian was really good at causing trouble.

In just five short months, the things that have been involved are enough for other celebrities to live on for a lifetime.

And he continues to stir things up.

This doesn't even include his live-streaming sales.

Developing two new wines, Ye Xiaobai and Zui Honglou, waging a full-scale war against melon vendors, and promising advance compensation...

This is a double whammy, and double whammy is truly unsettling.

Sometimes, Bai Jie wondered if these things would have happened if she had actually signed Ye Xian back then. Would her own strategy have completely restricted Ye Xian?

After all, she had a strong desire for control, and Ye Xian was also a person with a very strong sense of autonomy.

Will the two of them argue about routes every day?

Will I compromise?

Thinking about it this way, Bai Jie suddenly realized that it might have been better not to sign back then, since this kind of cooperation model is quite profitable now.

No, Bai Jie took a big gulp of red wine.

I'll definitely do a better job than that blind bastard Ding Zhan!

Ye Xian will definitely shine in my hands!

If Ding Zhan hadn't intercepted him, I would have already taken off!

If I can't have you, Ding Zhan, you'll never have a good life!

……

Ding Zhan hung up the phone, opened his phone to watch Ye Xian's new song short video, and immediately found the barrage of comments from those trolls.

However, while they were hurling insults, the late-night snackers were also fiercely retaliating.

[A bunch of underground cockroaches, dare you come out and confront me face-to-face like Liu Bohan? Haha, I bet you definitely wouldn't dare, Liu Bohan's already been sent to jail!]

[What kind of nonsense is this? Is criticizing Brother Xian here your so-called attitude? What's wrong with Brother Xian's rap? I think "Free Flying" and "Above the Moon" are super good, much better than your "Just Clinging to Buddha's Foot" stuff!]

[Stop insulting Brother Xian with your trashy rap, okay? If you're so capable, show us some mainstream songs. Stop saying rap is niche. "Free Flying" and "Above the Moon" are wildly popular across the Tang Dynasty; I hear them everywhere. What about your rap? Just because the masses don't like it, you say we don't understand art? What is art? Is it something only a niche group likes? H-tui!]

[A bunch of idiots, only daring to post in the bullet comments, dare to show your IDs in the comments section? Knowing full well that bullet comments don't display IDs, let me see who these high-class rappers are, let me listen to your songs and see how awful they are!]

……

The late-night snackers completely crushed those haters.

Some rappers are amazing. They consider themselves superior, have extremely strong attitudes and tempers, and cannot tolerate anyone saying anything bad about them. They immediately diss anyone or anything they don't like, regardless of whether the other person is right or wrong, only caring about whether they are happy or not.

Ye Xian probably made many rappers feel that he had lowered their standards this time, so they kept harping on it and kept stirring up trouble on Ye Xian's account.

However, just as Ye Xian sang in the song, "If I compromise with myself... even if others forgive me, I cannot forgive myself." Ye Xian will not waver in his decision because of what others say.

This is why, when the cooperation was initially discussed, the relationship between the two parties was not a typical agent-agent relationship, but rather a superior-subordinate relationship.

Ye Xian appears gentle, but is actually tough.

I never let others influence my decisions.

The most beautiful wishes are always the craziest.

I am my own god.

Where I live

... "

The lyrics written by Ye Xian are already quite clear.

And late-night snacks have the same temperament.

I love it! This new song is so addictive! Rappers, get out of here! What Brother Xian does is none of your business.

[Xian Ge's motivational speeches are always different from others' motivational ones; they provide me with higher emotional value, making me scroll through Kuaishou (a Chinese short video platform) while simultaneously cursing myself for being so weak, and then continuing to scroll through Kuaishou.]

[I have a question for you, Brother Xian: are you still going to show us some food? Have you forgotten your ancient cookbook? We foodies are getting impatient! Or, how about we share this handsome merman? This is the first time I've ever eaten such a dashing merman.]

[Foodie fans, get out of here! This is our time to have fun! Brother Xian, is this your first rock song? Keep it up! Let's be proudly stubborn together!]
