The agent was also very helpless at this time, and repeatedly explained: "Mingwei, they have already sold the entire song, how can they license the song? Otherwise, we can sing classic old songs. The reason why classics are classics is that they have stood the test of time. If they are performed well, they will not be worse than new songs."

The agent gave good advice and it was true.

But Ye Mingwei has now reached a dead end. She can't spend as much as Shen Susu, and her performance is also not as good as Shen Susu's. Now that she knows that Mo Ran got a new song by clinging to Shen Susu's thigh, how can she be willing to be inferior to Shen Susu's follower!

Seeing that she was not interested, the agent could only helplessly say, "If you really want to buy the new song, everyone in the circle knows that you want to buy it. People who have new songs are bidding up the price of singing authorization very high."

When Ye Mingwei heard this, she immediately asked, "Whose song is it? How is the quality?"

"Qian Chuanzi."

Hearing this name, Ye Mingwei couldn't help but fall silent.

Qian Chuanzi is considered a big name in the industry, but what makes him equally famous as his musical skills is his style of making money.

As the name suggests, he is a real money-grubber and his nickname is also "Money-grubber".

His well-known deeds include, but are not limited to, asking fans for money, selling concert tickets at sky-high prices, and selling his personal belongings at crazy high prices on second-hand platforms. He even wants to turn his own plastic bag into money.

For a person like this, the price of the new songs he hoards is naturally self-evident.

"It is said that Qian Chuanzi also wanted to sell the new song to Mr. Fu, but the price he asked was too high, even higher than that of Ye Renxian. Mr. Fu already had enough songs at that time and didn't like his style, so he didn't buy it." The agent patiently explained why the song was not sold, hoping to use this method to stop Ye Mingwei's impulsive behavior.

But Ye Mingwei's mind was full of winning at the moment, so she couldn't listen to so much.

"How much does he want?" Ye Mingwei asked.

The agent said with a stiff upper lip: "It's just for the first singing license, 30 million. If you want to buy it, you have 50 million."

"Why doesn't he just go and rob it!" Ye Mingwei was so angry that her voice became shrill.

The agent said helplessly: "Rare goods are worth a lot of money. That's what he is thinking. He wants to make as much money as possible."

"Let me think about it." Ye Mingwei did not make up her mind immediately.

Although her family is rich, she would definitely have to ask her parents for 30 million yuan in one go.

The agent was still persuading: "Mingwei, my idea is that if you really want to use this song, you can wait until the finals. It's a pity to use it now."

Ye Mingwei's idea was to lose the battle rather than the opponent. It didn't make sense that Shen Susu's followers could sing new songs, but she, the eldest lady, could only sing other people's old songs.

After hanging up the phone, Ye Mingwei sat in the dance studio, her eyes flickering, and no one knew what she was thinking.

The sound of girls talking could be heard in the corridor.

"It's better to follow Shen Susu and get more meat! You don't know, I used to be a teammate with Ye Mingwei. She said she was the daughter of the Ye Group, but she refused to share even a little bit of the benefits with others. She wanted to grab everything and take everything by herself."

"The Ye Group is just a name that sounds impressive. I don't know how much debt the real estate company has taken on. Maybe her family's assets are not enough to pay off the debt. Looking at her stingy appearance, she may not be as rich as us!"

"No way? Didn't she also give her teammates high-end jewelry? Ye Wenna and Lin Xiaoyun, two senior lackeys, were even given Hermès! One bag cost millions! She was willing to spend so much!"

But these words were immediately ridiculed.

"She's not willing to give anything away! Those two lackeys are the most unlucky. No matter whether the jewelry others got was real or fake, at least they got something. The two of them just posed for photos with the bag and didn't even touch it more!"

"Ah, there is actually such a thing? Is the Ye Group going to go bankrupt? Ye Mingwei is really losing face!"

The discussions behind her clearly reached Ye Mingwei's ears, and she was so angry that she clenched her fists.

She made a phone call on the spot, crying and saying to the man on the other end of the phone: "Dad, I don't want to live anymore..."

When Ye Zhengqi heard this, his brows furrowed. His first reaction was that Ye Mingwei was talking about her life experience again.

"Let's talk nicely, dear, don't try to kill yourself."

Ye Zhengqi's voice still sounded gentle, but it carried an irresistible majesty.

"I was laughed at by my teammates on the show... They all said I was pretending to be rich..."

Ye Zhengqi said: "Didn't I ask the group's publicity department to cooperate with you?"

Ye Mingwei's identity as the eldest daughter of the Ye family was not something she just said, but was the result of the Ye Group's unremitting efforts to promote it over the years.

"There's a contestant on our show who spends a lot of money on new songs for every show. She's been trying every way to bring me down, and I've never bought any new songs, so..."

Hearing his daughter's words, Ye Zhengqi immediately understood: "You just want to buy new songs, right? I'll buy them for you. How much is it? I'll ask my assistant to help you with this matter later."

Ye Zhengqi didn't take it seriously at first, but after Ye Mingwei quoted the price, Ye Zhengqi's brows were furrowed so much that they could pinch a fly to death.

It’s not that he was reluctant to spend the money, but he felt it wasn’t worth it.

"Our company just bought a song from a well-known foreign musician last year and it only cost 20 million. Were you cheated?" Ye Zhengqi could not think of any other explanation.

Ye Mingwei's eyes suddenly lit up.

Yes, why should she only focus on these domestic musicians? She can just go abroad to buy songs.

If Shen Susu hadn't been misleading her, she would still be blinded by one thing!

When he heard that his daughter wanted to go abroad to buy songs again, Ye Zhengqi just said that he was willing to pay and hung up the phone.

But things were not as simple as Ye Mingwei thought.

Not to mention the time difference abroad, foreigners are still sleeping at this time. It is not an easy task to hurriedly contact foreign musicians and search for songs suitable for Ye Mingwei in the foreign music circle.

Moreover, each process takes quite some time.

Her agent went to great lengths and finally bought the authorization for a song from a famous foreign musician two days before the show was aired.

"Welcome to the Brilliant Star Road semi-finals!"

It is still the familiar live broadcast.

This program has carved out a niche in the already crowded market of various types of singing talent shows because of the high quality of the contestants and the exciting performances.

Before the show started in the morning, the screen in the live broadcast room was scrolling wildly, which shows how many live viewers there are for this show.

After the show officially started, the screen was refreshed as fast as an afterimage.

"Go Susu! You're the best!"

Shen Susu now has quite a few fans.

But wherever her fans are, Ye Mingwei's fans will follow them too.

"Ye Mingwei is the best! Punching Mo Ran and stepping on Shen Susu!"

The barrage is now full of gunpowder.

"According to the draw results, the first contestant to perform is Cheng Chengcheng. Welcome the lovely orange contestant!"

With the host's words, the singles competition officially begins!
