It was a good day.
Both the Gregorian and Lunar calendars were good days.
At 5: 30 AM, the sky was still dark and there was no one on the streets. The Civil Affairs Bureau's staff were not at work yet. Zhang Ye and Wu Zeqing, who were dressed inconspicuously, arrived at Xicheng City's Civil Affairs Bureau. Old Wu's relative was the head of the department, so everything was naturally green-lit. Not even an outsider was present.
Inside the Civil Affairs Bureau.
The middle-aged man looked very serious.
Zhang Ye and Old Wu were standing beside him.
"Are you ready?"
"Yes."
"Then I'll start."
"Alright."
"I'm really starting."
"Third Uncle, can you hurry up?"
"We're issuing the certificate. Little Zhang, be more serious. What's the rush?"
"Alright."
"I'm very happy to issue the marriage certificate to the two of you. Today is a sacred day, so please answer my question seriously: Are you getting married of your own free will?"
"Yes."
"Yes."
"Please face the solemn national flag and emblem and read the 'Wedding Vows' together.
"We are getting married of our own free will. From today onwards, we will shoulder the responsibilities and obligations that marriage has given us. We will be filial to our parents, educating our children, respecting and loving each other, trusting and encouraging each other, understanding and giving in to each other, and loving each other for the rest of our lives. From now on, no matter good or bad, for richer or for poorer, in health or in sickness, in youth or in old age, we will stand together through thick and thin, share weal and woe, and become lifelong companions. We will stick to today's vows, and we will definitely be able to stick to them! "
Ta!
Ta!
With the stamp, they were married!
They had finally gotten their hands on the little red certificate. From this moment onwards, Zhang Ye and Wu Zeqing were officially husband and wife according to the law. They were a real couple!
Zhang Ye was a little excited.
Wu Zeqing smiled and said, "Third Uncle, let's go."
Third Uncle waved it off. "Hurry up and go. The morning shift staff will be here soon. Congratulations, Zeqing. You two will have a good life in the future." Then he looked at Zhang Ye, who was still flipping through the little red certificate. He curled his lips and said, "Treat our Zeqing better in the future. I don't know what good karma you did in your past life to marry such a good daughter." Then he said to Wu Zeqing, "Zeqing, in the future, you should also — hai, just make do."
Zhang Ye was at a loss. "What do you mean make do, Third Uncle?"
Wu Zeqing and Third Uncle laughed.
When they exited the Civil Affairs Bureau, Zhang Ye stretched out his arms and straightened his back. He put his arm around Wu Zeqing's shoulder and said, "Wifey."
Old Wu asked, "Hmm?"
Zhang Ye called again, "Honey!"
Old Wu asked, "What?"
Zhang Ye said, "Ah, it's fine. I'll just say it a few more times to get the feeling."
Old Wu smiled. "Yeah, let's do it then."
Zhang Ye rubbed his stomach and said, "Alright, let's talk about it when we get home. My stomach is growling. Let's have breakfast first."
At this hour, the morning paper was already on the shelves.
"Han Di files for divorce!"
"Han Di sues Tianfang Entertainment in court, requesting to terminate his management contract!"
"Han Di's Wife Should Leave Her Family with Nothing!"
"Tianfang Entertainment's stock price crashes, CSRC intervenes!"
"A farce caused by a novel!"
"Tianfang Entertainment's Equity Mortgage Emergency!"
Wu Zeqing also bought a few portions.
Zhang Ye also took it and looked at it. "Heh, this Han Di isn't stupid. He knows that he's going to court."
Wu Zeqing said, "Now that things have gotten to this point, they'll definitely have to go to court." She looked at the newspaper and said, "You've screwed Tianfang Entertainment quite badly. I reckon that they'll come looking for trouble with you in the next two days."
Zhang Ye sneered, "Come on then, I'm waiting."
Ring, ring, ring.
His cell phone rang. It was an unknown number.
When he answered, Zhang Ye was very surprised.
"Is this Teacher Zhang?"
"Yes."
"I'm Han Di. I got your number from a friend."
"Eh, it's you?"
"I've already filed a lawsuit in court."
"That's good. You should've done that a long time ago. If you have any difficulties or needs, or if you can't do anything for me, just look for me. There's no need to stand on ceremony with me."
"Thank you."
"It's nothing."
"You —"
"Is there anything else?"
"Have you watched my movies before?"
"Your movies? No, I haven't. "
"We haven't even met before, so why are you helping me?"
"Why? Because I like to be a busybody. "
"… Thank you."
"You're welcome."
After hanging up, Zhang Ye smiled at Old Wu. "How was my answer?"
Wu Zeqing smiled. "It was pretty good."
"Alright, it's time to eat!" Zhang Ye pulled Old Wu along and strode away.
Busybody?
Tianfang Entertainment's stock price was halved!
The entertainment industry was in chaos!
To be a busybody in such an earth-shattering and soul-stirring manner, he was probably the first person in history to do so!
…
On the same morning.
What was supposed to happen had finally happened!
At Tianfang Entertainment's headquarters.
Zhao Chipeng called for an emergency meeting with the higher-ups. "The stock price has finally stabilized. The people have been making a fuss for the past four or five days, but it's all settled down now. Everything will pass one day. Although the situation hasn't completely calmed down yet, and we still need to continue fighting the lawsuit against Han Di, there's something that can be done and must be done. If we don't get our revenge, how can Tianfang Entertainment continue to have a foothold in the entertainment industry? How can I, Zhao Chipeng, survive in the industry? Whoever started this, whoever owes this debt, I'll fucking make them pay for it bit by bit! I'll let them know who's calling the shots in the entertainment industry! "
The higher-ups were also waiting for this to happen!
"Understood!"
"Director Zhao, we've been waiting for this!"
"Everyone knows what to do!"
"Zhang Ye can forget about surviving in the entertainment industry in the future!"
"Even if anyone can run, he won't be able to run!"
Whenever they thought about how they would often be startled awake by the plaza dance tunes in their dreams over the past few days, this group of people hated Zhang Ye to the core. Right now, they, along with all the other employees of Tianfang Entertainment's companies and branches all over the country, had already developed a conditioned reflex. Even if no one came to cause trouble, even if it was quiet at home, they would still often hallucinate and feel as though the plaza dance tunes were playing around them!
These were the darkest four days of their lives!
These were four days that they didn't want to recall for the rest of their lives!
And the main culprit behind all of this was Zhang Ye. After enduring it for four days, they could finally fight back. Thinking about it, they couldn't hold it in any longer!
After the meeting, the higher-ups took action!
Someone went on a business trip!
Someone went to make a phone call!
Zhao Chipeng also made eight or nine phone calls in succession to his friends in the media, as well as over a dozen phone calls to his friends and peers in the industry. Having been in the industry for so many years, Zhao Chipeng's greatest asset was his connections. Partners? People he'd helped before? People he'd helped before? In addition, the shape of the entertainment industry had changed in recent years. Many of the entertainment companies were no longer mortal enemies. Instead, they had a mutual understanding of each other and often worked closely with each other. Some even huddled together for warmth. Zhao Chipeng was one of the big shots in the entertainment industry, so whatever he said could be said to be an imperial edict!
The news spread like wildfire!
Tianfang Entertainment had issued an industry-wide boycott against Zhang Ye!
Movies?
TV series?
Variety shows?
Music?
Commercial appearances?
From today onward, anyone who dared to take on Zhang Ye's work would be going against Tianfang Entertainment!
Feiyu Entertainment responded very quickly!
Xiaohai Media followed closely behind!
Xiangtian Records issued a statement!
One!
Five!
Ten!
Countless entertainment companies issued industry-wide bans against Zhang Ye!
The momentum was so great that it could be said to be unprecedented!
This was a collective boycott of Zhang Ye by the entertainment industry's investors!
