At home.
The outside world was in chaos.
Zhang Ye was still sleeping soundly in his bed.
The bedroom door was pushed open. His mother walked in in shock. "Son! Son! Are you for real? The news is saying that you want to break into the S-list? "
Zhang Ye woke up. "Ah?"
Dad also entered the house. "Is it true?"
"Yeah." Zhang Ye sat up. "Has the news been reported?"
Mom said, "I just reported it. It's a mess outside!"
Zhang Ye laughed and said, "I thought they would find out about it a little later."
His mother said excitedly, "Are you serious? Why didn't you tell us? "
"I told you before, I said I was going to do something big, but you said I was going to rob a bank." Hai, actually, it's not something that can be hidden for long. No one is stupid, so it looks like there's no way I can sneak an attack on them. Hur hur, since they already know about it, then let's do it openly. I've already accumulated enough popularity anyway, so even if they make preparations, it's impossible for them to shake me off in the short term. "Zhang Ye rolled his eyes and said," I've already planned for this.
His mother pointed at him. "Son, Mom has high hopes for you!"
His father said, "Can you go up there?"
Zhang Ye smiled and said, "I'll give it a try."
His mother said, "You can do it. Show them what my son is capable of!"
"Alright." Zhang Ye shrugged. "After I'm done with the wedding, I'll have a good fight with those seven people."
His mother said happily, "Your wedding might even increase your popularity. If they knew who your wife is, they would probably be shocked!"
Scared?
I'm afraid this word can't describe it!
He should be scared to death!
He wondered how many people would be scared to death that day!
"Mom." Zhang Ye said calmly, "Keep a low profile, keep a low profile."
Ring ring ring, ring ring ring.
His friends also called him one by one.
First, it was Ha Qiqi. It was very chaotic over there.
"Director Zhang, we can't hide it anymore!"
"I know, I saw the news."
"The media has already broken the door. They've come in more than ten batches!"
"You guys deal with it. Thank you for your hard work."
Next was Chen Guang.
"Holy sh * t, are you serious?"
"What do you mean, Old Chen?"
"What are you talking about! You've hidden it too well! "
"Haha, I didn't hide it."
"You're too amazing. Wen Li and I just saw the news and were stunned. Only now did we know that your popularity has reached such a level in the past few months. You're really good. You didn't even bat an eyelid when such a big thing happened. This is a big event for you to ascend to the top of the entertainment circle.
"What do you mean by reaching the top? There's no sign of it."
"You're not far from here."
"Don't listen to the media's nonsense. He's still far from being popular."
"That's why you have to work harder and add more fuel to the fire."
Yao Jiancai also called:
"You want to reach the top?"
"Can't I?"
"Not bad, not bad at all!"
"Haha, let's give it a try."
"You're fine. I took a look at the leaderboard just now. Although you're still a distance away, it's definitely not that big of a gap. You're definitely the closest you've been to those seven people in recent years. Work harder and finish off the next one. In the future, you'll be awesome and reach the top of the country!"
"Fight for it."
Zhang Xia.
Xiaodong.
AMY。
Ning Lan.
Zhang Ye's cell phone was exploding!
Zhang Ye's Studio was also getting trampled by the media!
The industry and media couldn't be blamed for making such a big fuss out of nothing. The main reason was that Zhang Ye's rise was too sudden. It was so sudden that no one was mentally prepared for it!
S-list!
There were only seven spots at the top of the entertainment circle!
Someone was going to ascend? That would mean that someone would have to go down. This was the rule of the Celebrity Rankings Index in this world. It was the same for the S-list, the A-list, and the B-list. Every rank could not accommodate an unlimited number of celebrities. It was not like an artist would be promoted to the next rank after reaching a certain popularity score. When the rankings index was set, it was taken into consideration that the public's attention would be limited. The development of the entertainment circle was not stagnant either. The difference in popularity scores from ten years ago and now was too great. If a fixed number had been set back then, then with the crazy development of the entertainment circle, there would be dozens of S-list celebrities, if not a hundred. It was impossible to do this. Therefore, the Celebrity Rankings Index had a fixed number of people and not a fixed number. There was a reason for this.
Zhang Ye thought about his previous world and realized that it was pretty much the same. Although there wasn't a clear ranking system like in this world, there was still a clear classification system. There were S-list celebrities and A-list celebrities, and the evaluation was based on the judgment and feelings of the media and the industry. Similarly, the S-list celebrities of his previous world were not limitless either. There were only a handful of them that could be counted. Although there were still some big shot S-list celebrities who rose to the top and it seemed like there was no limit to the number of S-list celebrities, when a new batch of S-list celebrities rose to the top, looking back at those former S-list celebrities, there would surely be a few of them who no longer had the popularity they had back then. Or had they retired from the entertainment industry? Or were past their prime? Or had they disappeared from the public eye? When there were new people coming up, there would be old people leaving. In this aspect, the two worlds were essentially the same.
Want to go up?
Then they would have to fight for it!
There were only so many spots, so whoever got them would depend on their ability!
And the current Zhang Ye had undoubtedly declared war on those seven people!
The news was buzzing!
"Zhang Ye declares war!"
"Can Zhang Ye successfully reach the top?"
"The battle for the S-list officially begins!"
"The entertainment circle's landscape is about to undergo a huge change!"
"Industry experts are not optimistic that Zhang Ye will make it to the S-list!"
"The teams of the Heavenly Kings and Queens may have to make an emergency response!"
"This year's biggest event in the entertainment circle!"
There was also an uproar on Weibo!
"I'm so shocked that I almost vomited blood!"
"This is so awesome!"
"In the blink of an eye, Zhang Ye has already gotten this far?"
"Yeah, I still remember listening to Zhang Ye's Ghost Blows Out the Light on the radio. At that time, I quite liked him and chased after him for so many years, scolding him for so many years. Damn, I wasn't paying attention and that joker actually managed to reach the top of the entertainment circle? Sigh! "
"Hahaha, he's been fighting and scolding his way up. In the past three years, the entertainment circle has changed so much with this fellow around. It's so exciting."
"Supporting Zhang Ye's climb to the top!"
"Teacher Zhang, go for it!"
"I don't think there's a chance. In the end, it'll all be for naught."
"Yeah, after so many years, no one has been able to shake the positions of those seven people."
"Let's just take it one step at a time!"
"If those Heavenly Kings and Queens really swallow their pride and go for Zhang Ye's popularity, the gap between them and Zhang Ye might widen very quickly. It won't be easy."
"But there's still a good chance of that!"
"Strongly supporting Zhang Ye!"
The netizens were debating!
The industry was in heated discussion!
The entire country was talking about this matter!
At this moment, Zhang Ye received a call from Zhang Yuanqi.
Looking at the caller ID, Zhang Ye smiled and answered: "Hello, Old Zhang."
Zhang Yuanqi: "Are you really coming up?"
Zhang Ye nodded and said: "Yeah, I have to find something for you guys to do."
Zhang Yuanqi: "You sure talk big, huh?"
Zhang Ye: "Haha, do you have any suggestions?"
Zhang Yuanqi: "I don't have any suggestions, but I do have a word of advice."
Zhang Ye: "Oh?"
Zhang Yuanqi: "None of the seven of us are easy to deal with. If you want to take down one of us, it's definitely not going to be as easy as you think."
Zhang Ye: "You make it sound like I'm easy to deal with."
Zhang Yuanqi: "That's true. Good luck then."
After hanging up, Zhang Ye did not care about this matter anymore.
About an hour later, Zhang Ye received a message from Zhang Yuanqi's manager, Fang Weihong. When he saw it, he was stunned. Other than Zhang Yuanqi, this was the information of the other six S-list celebrities. It even included their recent itineraries, the release dates of their movies, as well as the possible increase in their popularity scores. Each of the information was very detailed, and it even included the reactions and actions of the Heavenly Kings' teams after they found out about Zhang Ye's plans to break into the S-list. For example, they would increase their activities, consider offers from variety shows, and so on.
This was definitely insider information!
Then Fang Weihong's call came in.
Zhang Ye hurriedly answered: "Sister Fang."
Fang Weihong smiled and said: "Did you see it?"
Zhang Ye said: "I saw it, thanks."
But Fang Weihong said: "Don't thank me. It was Sister Zhang who asked me to sort out the information and send it to you. You don't have many connections in the industry, so you have to do everything alone. You also don't have much contact with the upper echelons of the entertainment industry, so your sources of information are naturally limited. You're currently at the critical juncture of breaking into the S-list, so take a look and see if it can be of any help to you.
Zhang Ye was stunned. "Sister Zhang gave it to me?"
Fang Weihong said: "Yes."
Zhang Ye said: "We were just talking on the phone just now. She didn't think highly of me at all."
Fang Weihong was taken aback. "She doesn't think highly of you? Did she say that? "
"She didn't say that, but that was her tone," Zhang Ye said.
Fang Weihong shook her head and said: "I once asked Sister Zhang about it. It was about a year ago. I asked her how long the seven people in the S-list rankings would be able to hold their positions. A year? Three years? Or five years? At that time, Sister Zhang told me that it was unlikely that there would be any changes to the S-list in the short term. Then I asked her, 'If there really is a change, who will go down? Who will come up? ' What do you think she said? "
Zhang Ye listened.
Fang Weihong smiled and said: "Sister Zhang said that if there really is a change to the S-list, she doesn't know who will go down, but the person who will come up — will definitely be you!"
Zhang Ye was taken aback. "Me?"
He really hadn't expected that.
Old Zhang had such a high opinion of him?
After hanging up, Zhang Ye looked at the information that Fang Weihong had sent to him on his cell phone. He felt quite touched, but when he raised his hand, he deleted the message. He would remember this in his heart. He knew very well who was good to him, but he didn't need the information. He wasn't the type to study his opponents' information. Usually, Zhang Ye preferred to be more direct and not beat around the bush.
Where did they go?
What were they doing?
How were they going to pull in more popularity?
I don't care!
They were going to fight to the bitter end!
Life and death were up to fate. It all depended on one's own ability!
