In the morning.
Beijing Television Station.
Hu Fei's face darkened. "Something's wrong!"
Dafei asked, "What's wrong, Brother Hu?"
Hou Ge was startled. "What happened?"
Hu Fei said solemnly, "I've just received news that Zhao Chipeng has spread the word in the industry that more than a dozen entertainment media companies have issued a boycott order against Zhang Ye. Our station has also received it. If Zhang Ye continues to do any shows in the future, they will withdraw all of their artists and cease all cooperation with Beijing Television!"
Xiao Lu exclaimed, "What?"
Hou Di said angrily, "This is too unreasonable!"
Han Qi's expression was ugly. "What should we do? What should we do?!"
…
At Zhang Ye's Studio.
Ha Qiqi received firsthand news!
"This is bad!"
"What happened?"
"Director Zhang has been banned!"
"What?"
"Who is it this time?"
"Who else could it be? It must be Zhao Chipeng!"
"It's not just Tianfang Entertainment. This time, half of the entertainment industry's investors are involved. This time, something big has really happened!"
…
On a certain music platform.
"Director Sun, about the collaboration with Zhang Ye's new song, we still —"
"There's no need to talk."
"Ah? We're already in communication. "
"There's no need. Zhang Ye is finished."
"Why?"
"With the capital blackout, whoever works with Zhang Ye in the future will have to face sanctions from Tianfang Entertainment and a dozen other entertainment media companies. If we work with Zhang Ye, then the artists under those companies will not be able to work with us anymore. In fact, they might even take back their copyrights and licenses!"
"How could this be?!"
…
Within an hour.
The entire entertainment industry had received the news.
Chen Guang.
Fan Wenli.
Zhang Xia.
Ning Lan.
Seven S-listers.
Everyone received it!
The industry was shaken!
The industry was in an uproar!
After seven years, the Capital Blackout Order reappeared in Jianghu!
There were often cases of bans in the industry. For example, a small-time celebrity would offend a big shot, and the big shot would say that he or she would not exist. This was also considered a ban. For example, if an artist had offended the higher-ups of an entertainment company, the higher-ups would say that they wouldn't let the artist off easily. This was also considered a ban.
But they were all different!
This was just a small fight, the difference in strength was too great!
The World of Martial Arts Boycott was something on a completely different level!
Thinking back to that day seven years ago, a domestic movie star who had already been promoted to the A-list had offended many investors because he acted like a big shot. As a result, he was boycotted by three entertainment media companies and was forced to issue a ban. That was the first time the investors had taken action, and the A-list movie star's popularity plummeted overnight. No one accepted his role, no one accepted his negotiations, his peers denounced him, and his friends distanced themselves from him. At the end of that year, the popularity of that A-list movie star plummeted, falling to the B-list. The next year, he fell to the C-list. He no longer had any performances or exposure. It was the same as cutting off the life of a celebrity.
Up until today, the celebrity who had been banned from the industry had never appeared on television again. He could no longer be seen on the celebrity rankings or the list of E-list celebrities. All the relevant reports and discussions about him had been deleted. No one paid attention to him anymore. Everyone had almost forgotten his name. Until today, when the Capital Blacklist reappeared, many of the old people in the entertainment industry sighed and remembered that person from back then.
This was the World of Martial Arts Boycott!
It was the cruelest sword in the entertainment industry. It was a declaration of war between the investors and celebrities to the bitter end!
Furthermore, the World of Martial Arts Boycott this time was not as simple as just three or four entertainment companies. It was more than a dozen of them, which was half of the entertainment industry's capital. It was several times stronger than the World of Martial Arts Boycott from seven years ago! The investors had collectively declared that they wanted Zhang Ye "dead"!
Who could withstand it?
Who could escape?
No one could!
Even the Heavenly Kings and Queens were the same!
Zhang Ye was done for!
This was the conclusion that everyone in the entertainment industry came to at this moment!
He had offended too many people this time, and his background was too big!
In an instant, Zhang Ye was being called out by everyone!
On Weibo.
The crosstalk world's people drew a clear line between themselves and Zhang Ye.
Crosstalk actor Tang Dazhang: "The so-called 'Madman's Diary' was just spouting nonsense. Society is not as dark as you think, and the entertainment industry is not as dark as you make it out to be. As a public figure, instead of maintaining your image in the industry, you went against the grain and spread alarmist rhetoric. No one can tolerate you anymore!"
A group of crosstalk actors responded!
Some members of the literary world denounced:
A senior of the Writers' Association: "You only know how to stir up trouble every day and write those so-called essays that aren't worth shit. What an insult to the culture. You're misleading the people and deceiving them. I can't stand it anymore. From today onwards, the literary world will draw a clear line between us and you!"
A group of people from the literary world responded!
The education world.
The calligraphy world.
The opera world.
At a television station.
At a radio station.
Countless people started denouncing Zhang Ye!
"Get out of the entertainment industry!"
"We don't need people like you here!"
"Ignorant and incompetent!"
"What kind of professor are you!"
"That bit of contribution you have is not even worth mentioning!"
"I suggest that the people stop falling for Zhang Ye's tricks!"
"Everyone, we can't tolerate this anymore. It's time to speak up and draw a clear line between us and Zhang Ye!"
"Everyone, let's boycott him together!"
A big shot celebrity also came forward!
Jiang Hanwei!
Li Yu!
Zhao Qiquan!
An artist under Tianfang Entertainment!
An artist under another entertainment company!
All of them were calling for Zhang Ye to be killed!
Some of them were people that Zhang Ye had offended in the past and were sworn enemies of him. Some of them were people that Zhang Ye did not even know or had never met before. They were all jumping out to trample on Zhang Ye so that they could get closer to the investors. They were trying to use Zhang Ye's matter to advance and become the pawns of the investors! Of course, there were some things that definitely could not be said out loud. The matter of Han Di's wife and Zhao Chipeng could not be mentioned at all. It was just like how the investors had blacklisted Zhang Ye. They couldn't possibly publish in the media that the investors were going to blacklist him. It was all done within the industry and no one would say it out in the open! Therefore, it was the same for these people. The reason why they were attacking Zhang Ye was not because he had offended Zhao Chipeng, but because they were using other reasons that they felt were legitimate to denounce Zhang Ye!
Zhang Ye had offended too many people.
Several thousand?
Several tens of thousands?
Several hundred thousand?
He couldn't even count them all.
Therefore, when the industry-wide blacklist was announced, everyone knew that Zhang Ye could no longer survive in the entertainment industry. Naturally, they did not have any qualms about beating him up or scolding him. They wished that they could settle the scores of all the times Zhang Ye had bullied them every single day!
...
The people were also dumbfounded!
"What's going on?"
"Why is it like this?"
"Why is there a crusade against Zhang Ye again?"
"Zhao Chipeng has made his move!"
"Ah?"
"When Teacher Zhang wrote A Madman's Diary, he had definitely offended Zhao Chipeng and the investors of the entertainment industry. They're now looking for Zhang Ye to settle the score!"
"It's the industry-wide blacklist!"
"What!"
"Fuck!"
"Are you talking about the one from seven years ago?"
"Yes, that's it!"
"How ruthless! They're way too ruthless! "
"And it's on an even larger scale this time! Half of the entertainment industry's investors have taken action against Zhang Ye. This is industry news, so that's all I can say. Everyone, you'd better be mentally prepared. This will be the biggest predicament that Zhang Ye will face ever since he entered the entertainment industry. No, to say that it's a predicament isn't right, it's a hopeless situation. With the investors working together to blacklist him, Zhang Ye will no longer have a chance to appear on television, take on any commercial appearances, and no one will be willing to work with him again. This is equivalent to announcing the end of Zhang Ye's career as an artist.
"Damn!"
"Can they still be reasonable?"
"Those bastards are so ruthless?"
"Motherfucker, I'm so angry!"
"Teacher Zhang still has us!"
"Right, he still has us to support him!"
"What's the use of our support? The television stations won't get him to film their shows, the television production teams won't hire him, and the music platforms won't work with him. We won't even be able to see him in the future, so how are we supposed to support him? How are we supposed to support him? I'm an industry insider, and the waters of the entertainment industry run too deep. It's not as simple as you think it is. Teacher Zhang Ye has really angered the investors this time. If they want to take action against Zhang Ye, no one will be able to stop them! "
"But Teacher Zhang is getting married soon!"
"What about the wedding?"
"Will anyone be there?"
"If that's the case, how many people will he be able to invite?"
"Old Dog Zhao!"
"Let's fight it out with him!"
"That bastard!"
"There will be no more of Zhang Ye in the entertainment industry from now on? I can't imagine that! "
"I can't imagine it either. Although I sometimes scold him and get really angry at him, but — but I really fucking like him!"
"Is it really over for Teacher Zhang?"
"Is there no one left who can stop them?"
"Is there no one left?"
Anger!
Confusion!
Everyone was unable to control their emotions.
At this moment, someone spoke up.
"There's someone who can stop them."
"Hurry up and say it!"
"Who is it?"
"The SARFT!"
"Fuck, that's as good as not saying anything!"
"Aren't you just spouting nonsense!"
"Who can't be stopped by the SARFT! They're the ones who oversee the entire entertainment industry! "
The entertainment industry was in chaos!
The people were in an uproar!
The media reports came out one after another:
"Zhang Ye's misdeeds provoke public anger!"
"Zhang Ye to retire from the entertainment industry?"
"Zhang Ye's novel scolds the entertainment industry for eating people up!"
"There's no longer a place for Zhang Ye in the entertainment industry!"
"Will the wedding go ahead?"
"Zhang Ye's wedding to be postponed!"
