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

Chapter 536 The man so powerful he was breathtaking and awe-inspiring has returned! (Seeking monthly votes)

As Ye Xian explained, everyone learned more and more about the experience store and became increasingly eager to experience it for themselves. When asked about the store opening plan for this year, Ye Xian smiled and said, "We will open stores in all first-tier cities this year, but we will have to wait a little longer for second-tier cities."

The strategic planning for the experience store is different from that of Ice and Snow Honey City. Ye Xian has different strategies for opening stores for these two product lines in cities of different levels.

For this experience store to thrive and be profitable, the product mix sold in different cities must be adjusted according to the city's tier; otherwise, every store that opens will fail.

Although the main purpose of experience stores is brand promotion, it would definitely be better if they could make money.

As they strolled around, everyone suddenly noticed that each salesperson in the store was dressed in a different Tang Dynasty costume, and many young men and women were also dressing up in different costumes, such as the Qiao sisters, Lu Bu, and Zhao Zilong. The store was full of traditional Chinese style.

"What's displayed here is our store's prized possession: a complete series of character cards from 'Dream of the Red Chamber' and 'Romance of the Three Kingdoms.' Each card is made of gold leaf and hand-carved by Master Ding Hong, a renowned inheritor of Tang Dynasty intangible cultural heritage. The labor cost is even higher than the gold material itself!"

Ye Xian turned the camera to a huge glass case, inside which stood exquisite character cards, each character lifelike, and corresponding scenes of classic moments, such as the first meeting of Bao and Dai, and the Oath of the Peach Garden.

This set of character cards is truly exceptional.

Many people looked at the price below and were immediately stunned by the string of zeros.

[Brother Xian, while it's true that anime fans are all rich, isn't this blatant rip-off a bit too much?]

[How many sheets are there in total? You dare to price this at 666 million? Are you desperate for money? Even if they're all gold leaf, the price is still a bit too high, isn't it?]

My god, whoever gets their hands on this will definitely be a top-tier billionaire in the anime and manga community!

[666 million, does this set a new record for the highest price ever paid for anime-related merchandise? But since it's a work by Master Ding Hong, I believe what Brother Xian said: the craftsmanship cost more than the gold material itself!]

……

The high price of 666 million left the fans in the live broadcast room speechless. Ye Xian did not explain much, but instead led everyone to continue to view the various featured exhibits.

Some things exist not for the purpose of selling.

"There are many unique treasures here that even the Haizhou flagship store doesn't have, so if you're interested in late-night snacks, you can take some time to browse around. I won't go into too much detail to keep it a bit of a mystery for everyone."

That concludes today's live stream. See you next time!

After saying that, Ye Xian ignored his fans' attempts to persuade him to stay and resolutely logged off.

After tossing his phone to Sun Li, Ye Xian exchanged pleasantries with Afif and the others for a while before hurriedly heading to the Princess's residence with several cups of the new Ice Snow Honey City drinks.

Well, I didn't mean anything by it. I just wanted to thank the Sixth Princess for lending me her castle to stay in temporarily.

To his surprise, Ye Xian rushed over only to be turned away at the door.

"Her Highness is not feeling well and is resting these past few days. She will probably see you again once she is feeling better."

The woman who came out was the female steward of the princess's residence, whom Ye Xian had met a few times. After giving Ye Xian a few strange looks, she left the drinks that Ye Xian had brought.

Looking at the housekeeper who seemed hesitant to speak, Ye Xian couldn't help but ask, "What illness does Your Highness suffer from?"

This was the first time the Sixth Princess had refused to see him, and she even used the word "rest and recuperation." Either she didn't want to see him, or she was really sick.

"It's nothing serious, just a bit of drowsiness. He needs to rest and recuperate. You can go back now!"

Carrying the drinks, the housekeeper watched Ye Xian get into Afif's nanny car and leave.

……

"Is His Highness ill?"

Afif chuckled in the car, "Could it be that you've been a little too jealous and it's making you feel sour?"

Ye Xian shook his head: "Don't joke around."

Afif then sat up straight: "What about the 'Great Tang Magical Park Resort' Beijing branch project that we originally wanted to discuss with him?"

"What can we do? Just start working on it. It's a project that was already agreed upon before. We're just respecting her wishes and want to discuss it with her in person again. You go and confirm the land first, and when it's almost ready, send her the project plan."

Ye Xian certainly wouldn't have come to the princess's residence just to deliver a drink.

The Datang Magical Paradise Resort will officially open at the end of the year. Afif is already looking for other plots of land to prepare to replicate the project. In his opinion, it is better to open it in the capital first. After the capital is successful, it will be very easy to replicate it.

Even without a leader to carry the flag, Ye Xian and Afif would not stop their progress. After discussing it, the two decided to proceed with the original plan.

……

Ye Xian originally planned to stay in the capital for another day, but he didn't see the person he wanted to see, so he had to rush back to Haizhou.

At this time, filming for "The Vanished She" was about to wrap up. Ye Xian's scenes had already been completed, and the scenes being filmed now were between the female lead and the supporting actress.

Even if filming and editing are done simultaneously, the film will likely miss the Qingming Festival release window, so "The Vanished She" is scheduled for May Day.

On the way back, Ye Xian thought about it again and again, and finally called the Sixth Princess.

"I received the item. Thank you for your thoughtfulness."

The sixth princess's voice carried a hint of languor.

Ye Xian asked, "Is Your Highness very ill? I heard from the steward that he can't even get out of bed."

"It's nothing, I just need to rest. I was probably too tired recently, I'll be fine after some rest."

The Sixth Princess didn't explain further, and Ye Xian didn't press the matter. He chatted for a few more minutes before hanging up.

After checking his phone, Ye Xian realized that since the Lunar New Year, the Sixth Princess seemed to have stopped her public work and had been in a state of rest and recuperation.

Unsure what illness the Sixth Princess might have, Ye Xian had no choice but to call Ding Zhan and ask him to purchase some nourishing and blood-tonifying ingredients to send to the Sixth Princess.

Even though I know the other person certainly doesn't lack these things, it's a bit unreasonable not to show any concern when I know they're sick.

Since women need to rest, they will definitely take less supplements to replenish blood, energy, and calcium.

Ye Xian suddenly realized that he knew nothing about the Sixth Princess's circle of friends, not even who her best friends were. He had no one to ask when something like this happened. Had he not cared enough about this powerful backer?

……

On March 21, the Kuaishou account and Weibo account of "The Vanished She" updated a short video without warning. Ye Xian forwarded it, and just a few hours later, the movie and its theme song quickly became the trending topics.

Many fans and netizens already knew that Ye Xian adapted his true story of killing his wife into a film called "The Vanished Woman," but the film has not been widely promoted; instead, the filming process has been broadcast live.

This is completely different from the high-profile releases of "Hello Mr. Billionaire" and "Dream of the Red Chamber," leading many fans to suspect that Ye Xian might not be very confident about this film.

It wasn't until the theme song was released that many fans exclaimed in surprise: "That man, so powerful that he took our breath away and inspired awe, is back in the music scene!"
