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

Chapter 046 Is this an angel descended from heaven?

After seeing Bai Jie off, Ye Xian finished his live stream for the day and was about to wash up and go to bed when he suddenly received a message.

"Young man, could you please deliver another case of wine to me today?"

Ye Xian was a little puzzled. Who was this person?

Looking through the chat history, there were no chat records, only a transfer record of 595 yuan.

"595?"

This number looks so familiar!

I remember now!

Ye Xian suddenly thought of the uncle who asked him to deliver wine to him at midnight on New Year's Eve.

It's midnight now.

This uncle has a very unique way of drinking.

"Sure, shall we deliver it now?"

There's nothing shameful about making money.

We can deliver even on New Year's Eve, and now that we're officially open for business, we don't mind staying up an hour later.

"Thank you, young man. I'm sorry to trouble you again. It's the same address as last time."

"Just a moment, I'll be right there!"

Ye Xian drove his little six-inch car at breakneck speed, arriving at the uncle's neighborhood again 25 minutes later.

The other party was already waiting at the entrance of the residential area.

"I'm really sorry, I'm about to leave Haizhou, but everyone insisted on having one last drink with me, and we ended up drinking too much."

The refined-looking middle-aged man still had flushed cheeks.

"I was a little curious last time, sir, how much did you guys drink?"

On their second meeting, after receiving payment, Ye Xian couldn't help but ask another question.

Last time it was a welcome party, this time it's a farewell party.

How could a farewell drink be prepared in such a small quantity?

"Not much, the four of us only drank one case of wine!"

The refined-looking gentleman seemed a little embarrassed: "Did we drink a little too little?"

"few?"

Ye Xian was stunned. "On average, one and a half pounds per person. You're telling me that's too little?"

You guys aren't drinking beer, are you?

"Excuse me, are you a local from Haizhou?"

"He's a local!"

The refined-looking man chuckled, "When I was younger, I worked hard in Shandong Province for a while, so I drank quite frequently. My alcohol tolerance has decreased over the years; I can't compare to what I used to be!"

Ye Xian wanted to ask how much they drank back then, but then he thought that the other four people had just finished a case of wine and were now ordering another case, so he decided not to humiliate himself.

"Uncle, please drink slowly and within your limits. Get some rest after you finish. I'm off!"

Ye Xian waved goodbye to the other person.

"Hey bro, you've released a song on Kuaishou?"

The refined-looking man suddenly blurted out a sentence that made Ye Xian pause slightly: "Yes, didn't you place your order through my Kuaishou store?"

Have you signed a management contract?

The refined-looking middle-aged man slowly lit a cigarette and looked at Ye Xian.

"No, what's wrong?"

Ye Xian was a little surprised. What was this uncle going to do?

I've listened to all your songs!

The refined-looking man's eyes sparkled with excitement: "I never expected to encounter such a gem like you just when I was preparing to retire from the entertainment industry! Are you planning to enter the entertainment world?!"

Ye Xian understood.

Buying alcohol might be true.

The idea of cooperation is genuine.

Ye Xian relayed his conversation with Bai Jie that afternoon to the refined-looking man.

The middle-aged man laughed: "Bai Jie, I know her. That woman is too shrewd! I have no comment on the conditions she offered you."

"This is my business card. I've been working in this industry for over twenty years. I've been a bar singer, a celebrity assistant, an agent, and I've run a talent agency. I've been cheated and sold. The worst time was when I was sold to the border of Tangying by a creditor while chasing debts, but I've survived it all."

I'm 45 this year, almost 50. I recently invested in an idol star, and it all fell apart. I'm thinking about whether I should retire.

After you delivered the wine that night, I had a very good impression of you. You always kept your promises and didn't charge me a penny more than necessary. Your character is evident. I then checked your account and found out that you are a singer-songwriter.

I've been following your account for the past few days and watching you grow step by step. I can feel that your short videos, which use the language of the camera, are quite different from those of ordinary accounts.

Your "Fireside Chat" has become a trendsetter, with many young people inquiring about it. This shows that you understand current trends and are not just creating accounts blindly.

When those two internet celebrities came to you, you remained polite but also indulged in singing, which shows that you are a person of true character.

You gave all your songs to your childhood sweetheart to sing, which shows that you are not a heartless person and are willing to share good things.

Your song has become a hit, yet you're still willing to personally deliver goods at midnight, which shows you're not the kind of arrogant, ungrateful person.

I know Bai Jie. The contract she offered you must have been good, but you stood firm in your choice and didn't sign the contract with her. This shows that you are a determined person and won't be tempted by short-term gains.

From the brink of bankruptcy to now having sales and tips, the meals you cook are still simple home-style dishes. You don't flaunt your wealth or become arrogant, which shows that you are a person of great wisdom.

You're loyal and compassionate, talented and principled, with goals and direction, unwavering will and wisdom, and a down-to-earth character. You're far superior to that idiot I invested in before.

The refined-looking uncle's words stunned Ye Xian.

Am I that good?

How come I didn't know?

The older man continued, "There are a lot of idiots in the entertainment industry. We agents are exhausted, but I believe that if I invest in you, you definitely won't let me down!"

"I've failed my whole life, and I want to find the feeling of success in you!"

The middle-aged man's eyes shone with unwavering conviction as he looked at Ye Xian, as if he were seeing his own future reflected in him: "I won't offer you a profit-sharing contract like that shrewd woman Bai Jie. I'll give you a condition you can't refuse."

"What?"

Ye Xian was stunned. The uncle in front of him seemed to know him better than he knew himself.

"You register an online company, which will actually help your live-streaming e-commerce business. Then I will join as your employee. I don't want a base salary. You will give me 5%-10% equity, depending on my performance each year. If I do well, you will give me more; if I do poorly, you will give me less; if I do terribly, you can fire me."

"Let's work together for three months first. If we don't meet your satisfaction after three months, we'll part ways, and you won't need to pay me a single penny. If we do well, we'll formally sign a contract, and we'll share profits at the end of each year."

"If you want to do live-streaming e-commerce, I'll help you find suppliers and merchants. If you want to release a song, I'll handle the channel promotion and packaging. If you want to become a star, that's exactly what I'm good at."

"You can do whatever you want, I won't interfere, but you can't break the law. If your business collapses, we'll part ways, and you must compensate me for my losses."

The middle-aged man looked at Ye Xian with great confidence.

"this……"

Even with his two lifetimes of experience, Ye Xian was impressed by the man's magnanimity.

The demands for equity and profit sharing should be clear and transparent, as should the responsibilities of both parties. Most importantly, the question is: "Will you not interfere with my decisions at all?"

"If you seek my opinion, you can choose to listen or not."

"You're the boss, you make the decisions!"

Ye Xian admitted that he was a little tempted.

"Is that an angel descended from heaven?"

"Or...a scammer?"
