The next day.
Morning.
The news was still going wild.
"The Singer's Finale!"
"The viewership ratings set an astonishing record!"
"Zhang Ye defies all odds to win the championship!"
"All the popular male idols suffer defeat!"
"A Night That Shocked Everyone!"
"Last night, in public squares, bars, restaurants, tens of thousands of people sang a thousand songs in unison!"
"Zhang Ye has returned. Fleeting Time, what can you do?"
"Zhang Ye's song in the finals has blown up his circle of friends!"
"Zhang Ye's four new songs dominate the Top Chinese Music Chart!"
On Weibo:
"The viewership ratings are out!"
"It's too scary!"
"Yeah, this kind of viewership has never been seen before!"
"I'm afraid no variety show will be able to surpass this viewership rating in the future!"
"It's unlikely to happen within the next ten years."
"What a perfect ending."
"I Am a Singer was born in Zhang Ye's hands and ended in his hands as well. For him to return at this time and take the title of Grand Champion at this time might really be the will of the heavens."
"I really like him."
"Me too. I used to be a fan of the little fresh meat, but the moment I heard him sing, I betrayed him!"
"I also remember many things from the past. How nostalgic."
"It's a pity that the people from back then are getting fewer and fewer."
"Sister Zhang has retreated."
"Chen Guang also rarely comes out."
"Old Chen had surgery on his throat."
"Yeah, Spring Garden has also disbanded."
Zhang Ye's championship was very meaningful.
He reminded many people of the events and people of the past.
…
At home.
Zhang Ye was shaken awake by his daughter.
"Dad, Dad, wake up!"
"Hmm?"
"Daddy! Daddy! "
"What's wrong, daughter?"
"Daddy's on TV!"
"Is that so? Isn't daddy awesome? "
"Awesome! Daddy, carry me!"
Zhang Ye crawled out of bed and smiled as he picked up his daughter and gave her a kiss. This little girl was now his number one fan. Listening to the sound of the television coming from the first floor of the villa, as expected, it was news that mentioned his name again. For a moment, it gave Zhang Ye the illusion that he had returned to the era four years ago when he dominated all the headlines.
Buzz, buzz, buzz.
His phone kept vibrating. He didn't know how many times it had rung.
After being tormented by his daughter, Zhang Ye could no longer go back to sleep. He yawned and turned around to pick up his cell phone from the bedside table.
It was Ha Qiqi.
It was extremely noisy over there.
"Director Zhang!"
"Sister Ha, what's wrong?"
"Don't come to the studio today!"
"Ah?"
"Our door has been blocked by reporters. There are people everywhere!"
"Oh, it can't be that serious, right?"
"Hey, you didn't see it? The neighborhood's elevator is almost broken. In the yard and outside the neighborhood, there are reporters and TV station's interview vans waiting for you. They're all waiting for you."
"Push them all away."
"I understand. Don't go out on the street without sunglasses. You can't do it now."
"Alright, I got it. You guys hold on."
"Don't worry, we can hold on."
After a while, his phone rang again.
It was the famous director, Li Ke.
"Director Li."
"Director Zhang, hur hur, the investors have changed their minds."
"Ah?"
"They want you to play the role in the movie that I saved for you. They're offering you a lot."
"Forget it, I'm preparing to air my drama anyway."
"I knew you wouldn't be going, so I just wanted to let you know. You're in high demand now, and a lot of companies are eyeing you. No one could have expected that you'd become so popular, so congratulations."
"Haha, thanks."
Yao Jiancai.
Ning Lan.
Hu Fei.
His sisters.
The calls from his family and friends came in one after another. Zhang Ye had fallen asleep the moment he got home yesterday, so a lot of people did not manage to contact him. As a result, the congratulatory calls only came today. A lot of them found it unbelievable. Some of them still could not accept that Zhang Ye had won the championship.
Zhang Ye answered the calls for the entire day.
At night, Amy gave him a call.
“AMY。”
"Teacher Zhang, you're defying the heavens!"
"Haha, it's not that bad, but you called a little late."
"Pfft, you're complaining that I'm late?"
"If you don't mind, it's fine as long as you're congratulating me. Thanks."
"You're welcome. Um, Teacher Zhang, there's something I need to talk to you about."
"What is it?"
"Um, about what —"
"Say it? What is it? "
Amy stammered and could not say anything.
Then another person's voice came from the other end of the line.
"You're so slow, let me say it." It was Xiaodong's voice.
Zhang Ye smiled and said: "Sister Dong? You two are together? "
Xiaodong: "Yes."
Zhang Ye said: "Didn't Spring Garden disband?"
Xiaodong rolled her eyes. "The group has disbanded, but our relationship hasn't."
Zhang Ye said: "Alright."
Then Xiaodong said: "We're looking for you for something today."
"Speak," Zhang Ye said.
Xiaodong said: "We wanted to resolve it on our own, but we haven't been able to do so for the past two years. We've thought of many ways and looked for a lot of connections, but none of them worked. We've run out of ideas, so we can only ask for your help."
Zhang Ye smiled and said: "What's the matter?"
But Xiaodong said: "Let's not talk about what it is. Let's talk about your final concert back then. Didn't you agree to invite me, Amy, and Xiaoxian?"
Zhang Ye said: "I guess so?"
"You even said that you wanted to perform a heavy metal show with us at the Olympic Stadium?"
Zhang Ye coughed and said: "I think I did."
"But in the end, we didn't invite anyone. Did you say that?"
Zhang Ye said: "Wouldn't that be a big problem? I was thinking that I shouldn't drag you guys down with me."
"Then why didn't you invite us? Do you admit to it?"
Zhang Ye gave a wry smile. "I admit to it."
Xiaodong nodded and said: "Then you'll have to help me with this."
Zhang Ye smiled and said: "Sure, tell me about it."
Only then did Xiaodong say: "It's about Amy's contract with the agency. It hasn't been resolved for the past two years. Right now, the agency is ignoring her and refusing to take on any work for her or let her go. It's basically no different from being frozen. Amy has always wanted to leave the agency and go solo, but she can't. The agency won't let her go no matter what. If we wait for the contract to run out, it'll take some time. At that time, Amy's popularity will drop even more."
Zhang Ye asked: "You want me to help Amy resolve the contract issue?"
On the other end, Amy said: "Just cancel the contract. I'm fine even if I have to pay some compensation."
Zhang Ye said in amusement: "Why did you come to me?"
He heard Li Xiaoxian's voice again.
Li Xiaoxian said: "Because you have a lot of influence."
Xiaodong said: "Teacher Zhang, I'm really counting on you to resolve Amy's contract."
Zhang Ye could tell that something was up. He couldn't help but ask: "Sister Dong, aren't you going to hold a solo concert in a few days? Why are you in such a hurry to get Amy to cancel the contract? "
There was silence on the other end.
Then, something shocking was said.
Xiaodong, Amy, and Li Xiaoxian said almost in unison: "We want Spring Garden to make a comeback."
Zhang Ye was taken aback. Then he laughed. "Alright, I'll help you with this!"
