Chapter 507: 500 National Queens (14) Additional notes

Upon hearing Ye Shaohua’s name, He Zichen subconsciously frowned.

Xu Xiu, wanting to see the embarrassment of Agent Li, took out his phone and pretended to swipe through it.

He didn’t see any posts from Agent Li’s Official Account.

He couldn’t help but sneer, "The official account says they would post at nine, but I wonder if they still feel like releasing a new song after hearing Xuxu’s ’General’s Ballad’? Just the netizens underneath their Weibo are troublesome enough for them."

"That Young Master Bai really," Ye Xuxu of course knew that Ye Shaohua couldn’t release anything, and she just shook her head regretfully, "didn’t even spend money to clear up sis’s dark history."

Xu Xiu wasn’t surprised at all, "It must be because they realized she no longer has any commercial value. So much dark history can’t just be whitewashed with a bit of money."

Ye Xuxu sighed, yet her eyes were filled with the pleasure of another’s misfortune, "Sis is like this now, we shouldn’t be making cold remarks."

Xu Xiu and He Zichen suddenly felt she was kind-hearted.

But how would they know, Ye Xuxu’s heart was wildly elated at the moment.

Ye Shaohua had been overpowering her since they were young.

When Ye Xuxu was younger, she vowed that one day, she would crush Ye Shaohua thoroughly beneath her feet. Now, her dream had finally come true, and she was both delighted and proud in her heart.

At this moment, all three of them were at Star Entertainment, and He Zichen was also an artist under Star Entertainment.

After releasing the song, the producer of "Command of Wind and Cloud" called to propose a long-term collaboration with Ye Xuxu.

Best Actors and Best Actresses also re-shared Ye Xuxu’s Weibo. One can imagine the influence of these Best Actors and Actresses, driving Ye Xuxu’s status to skyrocket, and her fan base increased rapidly.

Suddenly, she topped two trending searches.

’General’s Ballad’.

’Best Actor and Best Actress Retweet’.

Just then, these two trending topics that held the first and second spots were instantly pushed down the list.

Ranked first was a trending search marked with an "explosive" symbol—

’Undying Faith’!

The second was still a trending search marked with an "explosive" symbol—

’Ye Shaohua’!

The third was also about Ye Shaohua—

’Is Ye Shaohua’s Plagiarism Scandal True or False’.

In just a second, all Weibo posts related to Ye Xuxu were completely overshadowed by Ye Shaohua.

Even He Zichen was taken aback. He was aware that Ye Shaohua was releasing a new song today, but he hadn’t paid it any mind. Now, seeing the explosive trending Weibo, he couldn’t help but click on it.

Upon clicking the first trending topic, it was a Weibo post from Ye Shaohua herself—

’Undying Faith’.

The comments below had already reached ninety thousand in just ten minutes,

and they were still terrifyingly increasing at a rate of ten thousand a minute.

He subconsciously put on his headphones.

’Undying Faith’ was a Chinese song with a blend of rock and dark themes. It started very oppressively, and the beats seemed to hit everyone’s hearts, making it difficult to breathe. Yet the protagonist in the lyrics kept struggling.

Almost everyone has experienced such a hard struggle without being able to break free.

Some choose to give up, others persist.

And in this song,

The protagonist completely burst forth in the middle, with rock blended with various string instruments igniting every cell in the body. It wasn’t just the music’s arrangement; even the lyrics penetrated the heart, compelling one to burn with the rhythm!

This was a mixture of dark and rock symphonic music that had never appeared before in Chinese music!

Having listened for half a day, it still left one unable to snap back to reality.

The song didn’t have an MV, just pure lyrics and sound, but it inspired images of struggling in the mud and refusing to admit defeat while stirring with the effort to rise up in the latter part.

The most important thing about music is resonance.

’General’s Ballad’ is good music, but it definitely doesn’t stir the soul as much as ’Undying Faith’.

It can be said that out of a hundred people, if 70% resonate with ’General’s Ballad,’ don’t underestimate this number; it’s already a peak figure in the music world. There are very few that can surpass it, which is why Ye Xuxu initially had such huge popularity.

However, unfortunately for her, Ye Shaohua’s ’Undying Faith’ was one that surpassed ’General’s Ballad’.

If ’General’s Ballad’ achieved a resonance rate of 70%, then ’Undying Faith’ had already reached 90%!

The two represented different tiers of music. The public’s reaction on Weibo was identical.

He Zichen played the song again.

He stared at the lyrics.

He clearly saw the first few lines displayed.

Lyrics: Ye Shaohua.

Composer: Ye Shaohua.

Arranged by: Ye Shaohua.

Mixed by: Ye Shaohua.

From start to finish, it was all Ye Shaohua, all of it!

He stood there in shock, how could this possibly be? How could it be Ye Shaohua?

For a moment, He Zichen thought he had gone mad.

Ye Xuxu also realized that Ye Shaohua hadn’t released "General’s Ballad" but "Undying Faith," causing her complexion to darken significantly.

Because of this, the Water Army she’d hired to attack Ye Shaohua had no opportunity to be utilized.

"You’re ruthless!" Ye Xuxu, seeing He Zichen’s dazed look, couldn’t help but hate silently, though she was powerless to do anything.

The comments under Ye Shaohua’s Weibo were a mix of praise for her talent, disgust for her character, and of course, doubts about her music, but such low-grade comments were quickly confronted by those in the know.

Her "Undying Faith" possessed a distinct style that could not be found elsewhere in the entire Entertainment Circle.

Ye Shaohua had created a new school of music.

These were obviously not the outcomes Ye Xuxu had hoped to see. However, the good news was "General’s Ballad" was a divine song in its own right; although it wasn’t as successful as "Undying Faith," it had indeed made Ye Xuxu famous, narrowing the distance between her and the title of Best Actress.

Just when Ye Xuxu thought Ye Shaohua had given up on "General’s Ballad," Ye Shaohua unexpectedly reposted her Weibo.

v Ye Shaohua: This "General’s Ballad" is obviously mine, why have you released it?

Ye Xuxu almost died laughing when she saw that Ye Shaohua had reposted directly.

v Ye Xuxu: This song was written together with Zi Chen, and the seniors from "Command of Wind and Cloud" are aware of it too. I even visited the Drama Crew when composing it. I don’t know why Lady Shaohua would say such a thing.

Following her post, the Best Actor, Best Actress, and the producer of "Command of Wind and Cloud" all reposted her Weibo.

Best Actor: I’ve long heard of a plagiarist.

Best Actress: The last line of the lyrics was thought up by me together with Xuxu. I hope Xuxu can take legal action.

He Zichen: Ye Shaohua, I’m ashamed to have ever known you. This is our collaborative manuscript and surveillance footage [video link].

And those who had changed their opinions of Ye Shaohua because of "Undying Faith" were now thoroughly outraged by these developments.

Turns out a dog can’t change its eating habits!

"Although I like ’Undying Faith,’ because you are its creator, I would rather die than buy this album!"

"I really hope ’Undying Faith’ wasn’t created by you. He Zichen is right; I am truly ashamed for you!"

There were also people who supported Ye Shaohua, but they were a minority.

"I don’t know why, but I actually believe in Lady Shaohua. I hope Miss can provide some evidence."

"What evidence? The surveillance He Zichen provided from July 14th, along with that half-finished manuscript, haven’t they hammered your master yet?"

And just like that, Weibo’s trending topics were paralyzed again.

Ye Xuxu originally thought Ye Shaohua would bring out some evidence, which she could counter with a video of the Drama Crew and the Best Actress discussing the song, pinning Ye Shaohua down.

Unexpectedly, Ye Shaohua’s response was just a dry sentence with nothing to show for it, which made Ye Xuxu feel quite disinterested.

She had thought that after spending a year in prison, her sister would have become smarter, but it seemed that she had become even more foolish.

This gave her no sense of accomplishment.

However, Ye Xuxu was not surprised. After all, she was someone with a golden finger; Ye Shaohua was now just a common musician abandoned by Bai Yunci, who could never escape her palm.

Meanwhile, at Star Entertainment.

The assistant, fuming, brought his phone to Bai Yunci’s office, "Master Bai, look at this! I was suspicious when Ye Shaohua was accused of plagiarism back then; now she’s at it again. At eight o’clock, Ye Xuxu released a "General’s Ballad"!

At that, Bai Yunci’s brow furrowed.

He was relaxing, handling paperwork while informally discussing potential collaborations with various merchants related to working with Ye Shaohua.

The moment he took the assistant’s phone, the temperature in the office seemed to drop.

"She wrote the first line of lyrics in the studio on July 14th? Very good!" Bai Yunci scoffed.

It was the first time the assistant heard such a severe tone from him, sending a shiver down his spine, but the next moment he also felt outraged.

On July 14th, Ye Shaohua’s "General’s Ballad" was already being promoted abroad, wasn’t it?

Bai Yunci contacted someone while asking the assistant to comfort Ye Shaohua.

On the other hand, Best Actress Qingqing was talking with Director Khaan.

"Don’t worry, my junior sister’s song is definitely suitable, but whether or not she’ll agree to sell it to you is something I can’t promise," Qingqing was recommending their prodigiously talented junior to the internationally renowned director. "Just so you know, ’General’s Ballad’..."

As she was speaking, her assistant hurriedly came up to her, "Sister Qing, Sister Qing, something bad happened!"

"What’s all the fuss about?" Qingqing glared at the assistant. "Don’t you see Director Khaan is here?"

Catching his breath, the assistant said, "Your junior sister, there’s trouble. Look—" he gestured to the headlines on his phone.

Seeing it, Qingqing immediately stood up, "Let’s go, we’re returning to the country! This is outrageous! Do they really think our junior has no one backing her?"

Ye Xuxu was yet to realize that the heavy hitters in the Entertainment Circle had been set ablaze.
