A song from Chengdu revived a closed-down pub.

Qu Feiming's interpretation was quite detailed.

After listening to his explanation again, netizens finally understood.

It turns out that not a single sentence was written casually.

Every story has its origin.

Every metaphor hides a dagger.

The comments section was filled with exclamations of amazement.

"After Mr. Qu's interpretation, I suddenly realized I had been listening to it all wrong. This isn't a song; it's an essay written in rhymed verse!"

"After listening to Master Qu's interpretation and then going back to listen to the song, I got goosebumps. Su Fan's lyrics would have been included in anthologies in ancient times!"

"I admit, the first time I listened to it, I just thought it sounded nice. But after listening to Mr. Qu's analysis, I felt like I was illiterate!"

"With Su Fan's skill level, not to mention singers, many lyricists would have to call him 'teacher'!"

……

Once you understand it, listening to "Upside Down Song" feels completely different.

Beneath those lighthearted melodies lies a cold indifference and mockery of the absurdity of the world.

Su Fan's fans seemed to have received a new weapon, and began to spread the deeper meaning of the song on various social media platforms.

They quoted extensively from classical texts, breaking down Qu Feiming's interpretation into short sentences and precisely sending them to the comment sections of the bloggers who had previously been the most vocal.

The moment they sent it out, they felt incredibly cultured.

Because you understand, they don't; the difference in their understanding is immediately apparent.

This feeling is much better than simply cursing someone.

Ye Sicheng sat in his office, reading "The Upside-Down Song" and Qu Feiming's interpretation several times.

He rubbed his temples, leaned back in his chair, and remained silent for a long time.

"It's time to end this. If we keep making a scene, it'll go too far!"

His arrangement was simple: to blacklist Su Fan.

It wasn't a commercial boycott, nor a supply cutoff, but rather an attempt to silence him.

With songs removed from shelves, accounts restricted, and trending topics removed, Su Fan's voice will be completely erased from the public eye.

Before the news even reached the executive level, Ye Yao heard the rumors first.

She pushed open the door to her father's office: "Dad, do we really have to go to such lengths?"

Ye Sicheng retorted, "Otherwise what?"

Ye Yao took a deep breath, trying to make her voice sound organized: "How will we explain this to the cultural and tourism departments of each province? Su Fan helped them by granting them free song authorization. If we take action, they won't stand idly by."

"I will talk to them and exchange other resources. In business, there are no permanent enemies, only interests. You understand this principle."

"But doing that would be tantamount to completely offending Su Fan. What good would that do us? This is just a conflict between Ye Xuan and him. Is it appropriate for you to get involved personally?"

"If it were just online arguments between young people, I wouldn't get involved. But you saw the song he posted. If I don't stop it, this song will eventually affect the entire Ye family."

Ye Yao frowned: "It's just a song, what's the big deal?"

Ye Sicheng explained somewhat helplessly, "It's just a song? You underestimate it. The previous song, 'Ten Yuan Renminbi,' was at most a way for him to banter with Ye Xuan, but this 'Upside-Down Song' is different. It will be popular for a long time, and it might even be included in textbooks. Just think about it, what do you think will happen then?"

Ye Yao fell silent.

Indeed, if people bring up this song at that time, they will truly condemn Ye Xuan to the pillory of shame.

This will also affect the Ye family.

"I'm going to talk to him." Ye Yao raised her head, her tone resolute. "If we can bring him into the company, it will be a great story. We can say to others that we became friends after a fight, and now we've formed a powerful alliance."

Ye Sicheng neither objected nor agreed; he simply sighed softly, "Even if he agrees, it will be difficult."

Why?

"Because Ye Xuan is intolerant of others, he will not let Su Fan go once he arrives."

Ye Yao opened her mouth, wanting to refute, but found herself speechless.

She knew her father was right; even if she could persuade Su Fan to join, she wouldn't be able to get past Ye Xuan.

She was silent for a few seconds, then suddenly said, "I'll go find my older sister and ask her to keep an eye on Ye Xuan, at least to prevent him from causing any more trouble for a while."

Ye Sicheng said helplessly, "Why bother? Yun'er can only keep him quiet for a while; it won't last long."

"Let's stabilize the current situation first."

Ye Sicheng lowered his head and opened the documents on the table: "You have at most one day."

Ye Yao left her father's office and went straight to the military arts troupe.

Ye Yun, dressed in military uniform, knew something was up when he saw Ye Yao arrive, so he led her to the lounge.

"Speak, what is it?"

Ye Yao recounted the entire story between Su Fan and Ye Xuan from beginning to end.

From the conflict at Mawei Post Station to the online flame war, to Su Fan's two songs, to her father's decision to ban her.

After listening, Ye Yun said, "They really never stop causing trouble."

She picked up the phone and called Ye Xuan directly.

If anyone could control Ye Xuan, it would only be his eldest sister, Ye Yun.

Ye Yun not only has the power to keep Ye Xuan in check, but all the young people in Beijing's elite circles are completely subservient to her.

To put it simply, in the Kyoto circle, Ye Yun is definitely the big sister.

These people respect her not because Ye Yun is so powerful, but because she is fair enough.

If there are conflicts among people in the industry, Ye Yun can usually resolve them as long as he steps in.

Furthermore, Ye Yun would genuinely help them if they encountered any problems.

Even when they were chased and beaten by their grandfathers, Ye Yun could handle it all.

The elders also hope that there is someone among these younger generation who can hold their own.

Ye Yun is someone they approve of.

Over time, Ye Yun became known as the undisputed leader among these people.

As soon as the call connected, Ye Yun said directly, "I've seen everything about you and that Su Fan online. Tell me the whole story from beginning to end."

Ye Xuan paused for a moment. He couldn't hide anything from Ye Yun, nor did he want to.

So he recounted everything from the moment Shen Yi'an sent the photos to when he went to Mawei Post Station to demand an explanation.

He added at the end, "Isn't it all because of Xu Meng..."

Ye Yun interrupted him: "Alright, if you like someone, go after her openly and honestly. If you can't win her over, let go cleanly and decisively. Be a man and don't resort to underhanded tactics."

Ye Xuan's voice carried a hint of resentment: "But Grandpa has already mentioned it to the Xu family..."

"So what if you mentioned it? At most, it means your family doesn't object to you being together, but it doesn't mean it's an arranged marriage. Xiaomeng has her own ideas. If you really like her, go after her. Why get upset with an outsider?"

"But I can't tolerate that guy surnamed Su humiliating me in public."

"Yao'er will talk to Su Fan, and he should join the company then. If you are tolerant, don't keep bringing this up."
