Chapter 1578 The Storm Is Brewing

After Bai Wei finished using the restroom and returned backstage, everyone in the "Happy Popcorn" troupe was waiting for him.

"Old Bai, are you really leaving?"

When will you join the film crew?

"You're not coming back this time, are you?"

Bai Wei's expression was grave, and he replied in a low voice, "I'll join the crew in about a week."

"Don't worry, I'll finish performing the rest of the play before I leave."

Upon hearing this, everyone realized that the die was cast and it was truly time to say goodbye. Although they were reluctant, adults understand that many things are beyond their control and can only be accepted.

Instead of making futile attempts to salvage the relationship, it's better to give each other a dignified final exchange.

A more senior actor forced a smile and said, "Okay, let's have a meal together before we leave. This might be our last chance."

"You have to treat me to this meal; you're the boss."

Bai Wei sighed, his expression desolate, his voice still low: "Don't call me boss anymore."

Everyone assumed he was alluding to the troupe's impending disbandment, and their eyes dimmed.

"From now on, your boss will be Ye Zhi Qiu."

"However," Bai Wei said seriously, "when we're working, we'll use my job title. You can call me Director Bai."

"Huh?" Everyone was stunned, their minds not quite processing it, and they subconsciously thought he was still joking.

"Haha...Old Bai, you've had too much to drink..."

"What kind of time is this to be joking around..."

"Let's be frank, we know the troupe is going to disband."

Zhou Mei, who had been holding back for a long time, couldn't stand it anymore and rolled her eyes at Bai Wei.

"Alright! Stop joking around now!"

"Hurry up and tell everyone the truth."

Everyone turned their gaze to Bai Wei, their eyes filled with suspicion, yet deep within them lurked a hint of unbelievable anticipation.

At this moment, Bai Wei grinned and chuckled, his face no longer showing the seriousness he had just displayed.

"I hereby announce that, effective today, the 'Happy Popcorn' theater troupe has been acquired by Ye Zhi Qiu, and your boss has officially changed hands!"

"Of course, I will still be in charge of the management of the troupe."

"Also, Ye Zhi Qiu is preparing a new movie and will be giving priority to casting from our troupe, so everyone will have a chance to appear on screen..."

As Bai Wei explained, the crowd's expressions changed from doubt to astonishment and disbelief, and finally to ecstasy.

Then, the entire "Happy Popcorn" troupe erupted in the loudest cheers since its inception.

......

Across the ocean, in the United States.

While Ye Zhi Qiu was busy preparing for "Never Say Die" and acquiring the "Happy Popcorn" theater troupe, a storm was brewing in the North American pop music scene.

Due to his feud with black rapper Keelow Blaze, Ye Zhi Qiu's new rap song "RAPGOD" was widely ridiculed online, attracting everyone's attention.

During this period, Blaze has made outrageous remarks in media interviews more than once, acting as if he were the "King of Rap" and relentlessly provoking Ye Zhi Qiu.

For this reason, he even accepted an invitation from a TV station to "appreciate" the song live on March 10, the day it was released.

As the date approached, the controversy grew increasingly intense.

First of all, the organization that originally invited Blaze to do the show was a small local television station in Seattle.

The other party's original intention was simply to "watch the excitement and make things worse" in order to boost viewership.

As the number of viewers who had made reservations to watch the show broke through one million, five million, and then ten million, other TV stations couldn't sit still and began to offer to buy the rights or co-broadcast the show.
