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

Chapter 528 I'm also half a master!

As always, Fashion Magazine showered Ye Xian with praise. Editor-in-Chief Shen Wen and editor Tian Yan used every word of praise they could think of. Not satisfied with that, Shen Wen was about to compare and belittle some celebrities, but Ye Xian quickly presented her with a New Year's gift package to shut her up.

Given Ye Xian's current status in the entertainment industry, coupled with his friendly relationship with "Fashion" magazine, he has a great deal of authority to revise his press releases. Even if Shen Wen has reviewed the press releases, Ye Xian still has to read them before they are published, in order to prevent the press releases from being overhyped and making him outrageously self-aggrandizing.

In fact, Ye Xian has been keeping a low profile as much as possible these past few months. Apart from the release of his new film, he has only released one new song, "No Place to Hide," but he still can't suppress Tengfei's momentum.

October 3th, Sunday.

"Hello Mr. Billionaire" has officially ended its theatrical run, and as midnight approached, both "Hello Mr. Billionaire" and Ye Xian's Weibo account released a poster simultaneously.

78.5 billion!

Ye Xian's first starring film, with its unstoppable momentum, won the Spring Festival box office championship and successfully entered the top 20 of the Tang Dynasty film history box office rankings.

Ye Xian and Li Xin successfully entered the top 100 of the Tang Dynasty actors' box office rankings thanks to this performance.

That evening, the lobby on the first floor of Qiuye Yanxuan's live streaming base was filled with stars.

Princess Liu personally attended the celebration banquet for "Hello Mr. Billionaire" and led the leading actresses of Datang Entertainment to congratulate Ye Xian. Accompanying her were the bosses and leading stars of Tianmu Pictures and Baixiang Entertainment, as well as friends in the industry such as Director Jia, Director Cui, and Director Ding.

Fashion Magazine, as the sole designated media outlet, broadcast the event live.

"Distinguished guests, ladies and gentlemen, let us give a warm round of applause to Li Xin and Ye Xian to deliver their speeches."

Shen Wen, dressed in a moon-white fishtail dress, personally hosted the celebration banquet for Ye Xian.

That night, Li Xin wore a bright red gauze dress, which made her look charming and less funny and feisty, but more alluring: "Thank you for coming, everyone. To be honest, I just happened to become the female lead in this movie. I have to thank Brother Xian for his great support."

In my original life trajectory, Duan Fei and I would have wandered throughout the Tang Dynasty until one day we became unpopular or tired, and returned to our hometown to be wives and mothers, living as ordinary working people.

And it all started with that background music last year. Actually, I'm more grateful to the fan who tagged me back then. If it weren't for him, Duan Fei and I wouldn't have discovered the excellent Xian Ge so early, nor would we have made up our minds to find him so soon.

Therefore, I feel that many things really depend on fate.

My efforts only account for a very small part of today's achievement; the greatest credit goes to him and Director Li. Without them, I wouldn't be where I am today. Thank you, Director Li, and thank you, Brother Xian!

The audience erupted in enthusiastic applause, and viewers in the live stream were also deeply moved.

[The Dream of 300 Million Virgins: I feel that everyone who followed Ye Xian has done well. Chen Xu won Best Actress, Liu Xiaoxiao got her wish, and now Li Xin has completely broken into the mainstream. I guess only Duan Fei and Li Hong haven't been promoted by Brother Xian yet!]

[Humanity knows no bounds: What's the rush? Brother Xian has a plan. Haven't you seen how Brother Xian does everything with a rhythm? Slowly, I reckon all the artists under Qiuye Selection will become super famous!]

[Working late into the night: I almost believed that gossip video I saw the other day! I thought to myself, aren't Li Xin and Xian Ge good friends?]

[The Scumbag Harvester: Do you really think that gossip video is just baseless speculation? Dude? How could such a relationship exist between a man and a woman? It's all just a self-deceiving little trick!]

……

After being flattered by Li Xin, Ye Xian was unusually embarrassed: "Don't believe Li Xin, everyone. She's never serious. Even today, when she's being serious, she's just talking nonsense."

She owes her success entirely to her own hard work. She never missed a single training course offered by the company, and she was always the most dedicated when filming, participating in every scene. Even when she wasn't filming, she would diligently learn from the sidelines.

In fact, many actors in the industry work just as hard. They may only lack a little luck and opportunity. I can't promise everyone that opportunities will definitely come, but as long as you do your best, I believe you will be able to seize any opportunity.

Ye Xian's speech was brief, as always, offering motivational platitudes, but fans complained, saying they'd been fooled.

Luck doesn't come easily.

Opportunities are rare.

There are countless extras in the entertainment industry, but only one or two succeed.

Li Xin spoke very modestly, but without Ye Xian, she really wouldn't be where she is today.

Director Li, who followed on stage next, was as irritable as ever: "If you ask me, if Ye Xian weren't so lazy, this film would have had no problem breaking 90 billion at the box office!"

One sentence was enough to make the whole room burst into laughter.

Everyone knows that Ye Xian is the laziest person. If it weren't for the fact that no one was more suitable to carry the show than him, it's very likely that no one would have seen Ye Xian's variety show debut.

Ye Xian shook his head and smiled bitterly upon hearing this.

Director Li never holds back when he speaks.

"Actually, I have to thank Ye Xian!"

Director Li's next words, however, were unusual, making people think they had entered the wrong room: "Ye Xian gave me a good script, gave me a good idea, and even this good story didn't require me to rack my brains too much."

I believe that even without me, any director could have achieved such phenomenal success with this film.

Director Li, known for his volatile temper, delivered such a moving speech, immediately winning applause from everyone. Fans in the live stream also expressed their feelings, noting that Ye Xian had changed not only the people in his company, but also everyone he had ever interacted with.

After filming "Dream of the Red Chamber," director Jia praised Ye Xian highly.

Now that "Hello Mr. Billionaire" has finished filming, Director Li has been very generous in his praise of Ye Xian.

One person is like this, and everyone is like this; this only shows that Ye Xian's personal charm is truly admirable.

As a special guest that evening, Princess Liu surprisingly gave a speech, causing the number of viewers in the live stream, which originally had only a few million, to surge to nearly 20 million.

Thank you everyone for coming!

The female stars at the scene were as dazzling as stars, but Li Yunxi was like the bright moon. Wearing a black high-waisted strapless puffy dress, she outshone everyone else: "Speaking of which, I'm practically a hostess of this celebration banquet."

Upon hearing this, the expressions on the faces of everyone present immediately turned strange.

Everyone glanced at Ye Xian, only to see that his expression remained unchanged, showing no sign of emotion.

Everyone couldn't help but admire him secretly; he truly lived up to his reputation as a player, playing such a big game!
