Chapter: 4658
Today, Ye Chen's disdain towards Yang Tiansheng has indeed caused him to harbor resentment in his heart.
The reason he is so angry is ultimately related to his position as a respected figure on the island. He has been there for too long and gets accustomed to being treated like a star by ordinary people who look up to them. The social status of stars is already much higher than that of ordinary people, and someone like Yang Tiansheng, who is a patriarch in the entertainment circle, is even more unattainable.
Those enthusiastic fans spend a lot of money, energy, and resources to win an opportunity to meet their idols, and even just get to shake hands with them. However, for Yang Tiansheng, he has long been accustomed to being revered by a group of top stars. Now that he is being humiliated by Ye Chen, it's almost as if it hasn't happened in decades.
It's precisely because of this that he is so enraged.
Liu Jiahui was also at his wit's end. At the moment, Yang Tiansheng didn't even bother to pretend to cry over his own coffin, and Liu Jiahui couldn't budge him one bit, so he gave up on the idea of persuading him.
Just then, that girl who called herself Shao Xixi looked anxious and said to Ye Chen: "Mr. Ye, please don't let my... situation cause any conflict with Mr. Yang..."
Ye Chen waved his hand dismissively: "This has nothing to do with you. I have always had no good feelings towards this kind of refined yet cowardly person. In my eyes, such a person is even less worthy than the punk rockers on Tokyo's streets, at least they're genuine and don't pretend to be something they're not."
He then asked Shao Xixi: "What's your name?"
The girl hastily shook her head: "Not... my name is Shao Xi, Yang Mr. says my name is very difficult to fire up, so he changed it to Xu Zhiqi... He also said that there was a name similar to this one before, which is now extremely popular..."
Ye Chen had heard of the entertainment circle on Hong Kong Island changing names to become trendy, many artists would change their stage names to be more popular, and some people would even change their names several times without becoming famous. So he found it strange but just said: "I think your real name sounds better than a pseudonym given by someone else, even if you don't call yourself that."
The girl looked down in shame, but her tone was very firm when she said: "Okay, Mr. Ye, I'm still going to go back to using my real name."
Yang Tiancheng heard this and immediately became enraged, shouting: "You dare! Do you think our contract is just a piece of trash? It's a comprehensive agency agreement! If I don't approve it, you have no qualifications to do anything, including changing your own name!"
Ye Chen looked at Yang Tiancheng, furrowing his brow and asking: "What kind of perverted dog are you, trying to howl without waiting for your master to come? Otherwise, if you're just a 60-year-old old man, I'll punch you twice and see if your body can take it."
Yang Tiancheng was shocked into silence.
He knew that a good person wouldn't eat bitter fruit in front of others. He had brought two girls along, and if Ye Chen really started a fight, he wouldn't be a match for him either.
So he subconsciously took a few steps back, but still looked very arrogant when he said: "Wait a minute, Hong's coming over right away!"
"Okay." Ye Chen nodded his head: "Beat the dog with its owner. Since you're saying that, I'll wait until Mr. Hong arrives to settle the score."
He then turned to Xu Xi and asked: "I just asked you your name, but you haven't answered me yet. Is it this old dog who made you dress up like this and come here?"
Xue Shiyu nodded slightly, his face flushing with shame as he said: "I didn't think about it either, but after signing the contract, the company had such a requirement...... But Mr. Yang said that my contract was for ten years, and the company had already paid me one million Hong Kong dollars in advance, so I have to follow the company's arrangement, or else the company will freeze my account and I won't even get any income, let alone find a job. Not even selling street performances would be possible......"
As he spoke, Xue Shiyu's tears kept falling, his voice choked with emotion: "If I want to terminate the contract, I need to pay the group twenty times the breach of contract fee, which is something I can't afford, so I can only follow Mr. Yang's instructions......"
Ye Chen frowned and asked: "Why do you need one million Hong Kong dollars? Are you encountering some trouble?"
Xue Shiyu nodded slightly, speaking in a low voice: "I originally wanted to continue my studies, but some changes at home left me with a lot of debt and no ability to support myself......"
He continued: "I had planned to find a job immediately after graduation to help my parents pay off their debts and get back on their feet as soon as possible. But I didn't expect that when I met Mr. Yang on the streets, he said he was willing to sign me up and turn me into a singer......"
"Plus, Mr. Yang promised to give me one million Hong Kong dollars in signing fees, which would be enough for me to help my family resolve all their crises, so I signed it......"
Ye Chen asked again: "He only gave you one million Hong Kong dollars for a ten-year exclusive contract?" JrNovels.com
