A few days later.
A few photos were published on the news.
"Zhang Ye arrives in Beijing!"
"Zhang Ye and his team appear together at the Beijing International Airport!"
"Team Heavenly Kings reunite?"
"Sending out a clear signal: Zhang Ye may return to the entertainment circle!"
"Can there still be a place for Zhang Ye in the entertainment industry?"
"Is the Heavenly King getting old? Can you fight in World of Martial Arts again?
There were also media and television stations that conducted street interviews.
Reporter: "Do you know Zhang Ye?"
A 13-year-old girl said, "Zhang Ye? I don't know him, but I think I heard my parents mention him before. "
A reporter asked, "What do you think of Zhang Ye's return?"
A young man in his twenties said, "I don't think so. Zhang Ye, Zhang Yuanqi, Ning Lan, and Jiang Hanwei. Everyone's memories of that generation are getting fainter and fainter. The Heavenly Kings and Queens from back then are all getting old. Among that group of people, the only one who is still active in the public eye is Xu Meilan, right? But even Sister Lan is far from what she used to be. "
A reporter asked, "Are you optimistic about Zhang Ye's return?"
An auntie in her fifties or sixties said, "Zhang Ye? I used to like him a lot. If he comes back, I will definitely pay attention to him. I just don't know if he has lost his ability after so many years. After all, he was locked up in prison for so many years. It might have affected him a lot. Hai, nowadays, everyone likes fresh meat, young, beautiful, innocent, and untainted. So a lot of people might not be interested in Zhang Ye anymore. He was the world's most dangerous hacker in a hundred years, the old cannon of the entertainment industry back then. Any of his titles didn't sound good now, so would people still recognize him? I don't know either. Maybe we'll have to wait and see. "
…
Beijing.
At the airport highway, on a moving business car.
Zhang Ye looked at the city outside the car like an old hat.
He asked, "Hey, what about the shopping mall?"
Ha Qiqi said, "They were demolished a long time ago."
"Wasn't there a movie theater here in the past?"
Zhang Zuo said, "They moved. They moved to Dongcheng."
"Whoa, you've changed so much? I don't even know the way. "
Ha Qiqi said, "Yeah, there have indeed been quite a lot of changes in the past few years."
Little Wang said, "Director Zhang, you must inform us when you go out in the future. Otherwise, if you get lost, we won't be able to find you."
Everyone laughed.
Zhang Zuo asked, "When do we start work?"
Zhang Ye thought for a moment, "Tomorrow then."
Zhang Zuo said, "Alright, let's go prepare."
Zhang Ye said, "Is the studio still around?"
Ha Qiqi shook her head. "I really don't know about that. Sister Rao, we haven't been in contact for the past few years. After your incident, the entire studio disbanded."
Zhang Ye smiled and said, "How much money do we have left?"
Little Wang smiled bitterly. "You're thinking too much. I don't have a single cent left."
Zhang Ye said, "Ah? So poor? "
Be it the endorsement contracts or other collaborations that you had signed, they were not up for renewal, so we did not argue with them. After all, we were the ones who breached the contract in the first place, so we took out our studio's money to pay for the breach of contract. In the end, we were still short a little, so we wanted to split the bill among ourselves. We planned for each of us to fork out 200,000 RMB, but your wife did not agree to it. In the end, it was your wife who had to fill in the bill. Chief Wu said that this was your family's matter and that it was impossible for us to fork out the money, so we didn't really help much in the end. "
Zhang Ye smiled and said, "There's no reason for you guys to fork out the money."
Zhang Zuo said with a headache, "That's why funding is a problem now."
Zhang Ye smiled. "Let's take it slow and think of a solution slowly. As long as we're all here, anything can be discussed."
Ha Qiqi also smiled and said, "Right, our group of people also started from scratch and turned the entertainment industry upside down. Now, we're just going back to square one and doing it all over again. There will definitely be difficulties, and the road ahead will definitely not be easy to tread. But as long as we're all here, there's nothing that we can't solve. On the day we learned that you were coming back, we already thought about it. This is our first shot back, so we definitely have to do a good job.
Zhang Ye said, "I think so too."
Ha Qiqi said, "A lot of people on the Internet are saying that it's the era of the male idols now and that celebrities like you are already past your prime. But I don't see it that way. We were so popular back then, so there's no way that it would just disappear into thin air. It's just that too much time has passed and a lot of people have forgotten about your glory from back then. What we need to do now is to bring back everyone's memories from back then and get those fans of yours back. If we can really find a breakthrough point, a breakthrough point, I believe that it won't take much. Just one more work and we'll be able to reclaim our glory from back then. We'll tell the world that we've returned.
Zhang Ye muttered to himself, "A Heavenly King?" Then he said, "A staff member called me yesterday and asked if I should reopen my popularity ranking. What do you guys think?"
Ha Qiqi immediately said, "I don't recommend reopening it now."
Zhang Zuo agreed and said, "Right, we can't reopen it now. It's been three or four years, and no one knows where your popularity ranking is now. No, it should be said that it's definitely very low. Why don't we just ignore the domestic and Asian Celebrity Rankings Index for now? It won't be too late to reclaim our popularity from back then."
Zhang Ye nodded. "Alright."
Zhang Zuo said, "Starting tomorrow, we'll start contacting and collaborating."
Wu Yi said, "Right, let's do something big again!"
Little Wang shouted, "Long live Zhang Ye's Studio!"
Everyone's morale was high.
…
Up ahead.
They arrived at Zhang Ye's house.
Ha Qiqi and the others bade farewell and drove off. Wu Zeqing had gotten her secretary and chauffeur to send Grandma, Wu Changhe, and the others back home. Wu Zeqing, Zhang Ye's parents, and the others had taken another car and arrived before them. They were already moving their luggage in the villa's yard.
Zhang Ye went up to help.
The house was still the same old one, but when he entered, it looked extremely beautiful.
Zhang Ye was taken aback. "Whoa, you've renovated it?"
Wu Zeqing smiled. "It was renovated last year. Is it OK?"
Zhang Ye said, "It's OK, it's quite beautiful."
Sisi ran up to him and reached out. "Daddy, carry me."
Zhang Ye picked her up dotingly. "What's up?"
Sisi pointed upstairs. "I'll bring you to my room. It's really beautiful."
Zhang Ye kissed her. "Alright, bring Daddy to have a look."
They went upstairs and looked around the rooms one by one.
Zhang Ye felt an indescribable warmth in his heart. The feeling of returning home after so many years was really hard to describe in words. Everything he saw was good and made him happy.
Wu Zeqing also came over.
"This is your study. I've decorated it a little for you. You can draw here, and it's also soundproof. The soundproofing has been redone, so you won't be able to hear anything from the outside. It'll be a little quieter when you work here in the future."
"OK."
"There's also the master bedroom. I thought you'd like this kind of decoration, so I got them to do it this way. Look, is this table okay? If you get tired, you can also lie in bed and work. The table can be pushed and pulled, so it's very convenient. "
"Mhm, that's really nice."
"Actually, there's a basement at home, but I've never used it before. There's not a lot of space, so I didn't install it. I thought you'd definitely need it when you come back, so I installed it together with a recording studio. You can sing and record at home in the future, but I haven't bought the equipment yet. I thought you'd only be back in a few years, so I didn't have time to buy it. Just let me know what equipment you need and I'll get my secretary to get it done."
His wife had already thought of everything that he could think of.
Zhang Ye felt warm in his heart. "The studio will be announcing my comeback tomorrow. Old Wu, do you think I'm getting old?"
Wu Zeqing smiled and reached out to touch the corners of his eyes. "Do you think you're getting old just because you have a few wrinkles? Go ahead and let the world see if you're getting old. "
