On this day.
In China.
On Weibo.
"I heard that Commando 2 has finished filming."
"Yeah, Hollywood moves really quickly."
"Hollywood's commercial films have their own set of production processes. They've already formed an assembly line, and it's only the second movie, so they'll definitely be completed quickly. It's not like our domestic movies, where a movie can take up to a year or two and the box office results can't even compare."
"Commando 2 is about to be released."
"I'm calling for everyone to boycott it."
"Right, just based on what Wilson said, we must boycott it!"
"We'll make sure it has zero box office earnings in China!"
"There's some news that Zhang Ye's movie has also wrapped up filming!"
"What? That fast? "
"Is Face-smacking Zhang on steroids?"
"Didn't Wolf Warrior 2 start filming more than half a month later than Commando 2?"
"Zhang Ye is really fucking fast when it comes to filming!"
"Hahaha, this is considered slow? Remember In the Name of the People? This fellow finished filming it in just ten days. That was a TV series with more than 40 episodes! "
"Is he really going to go against Hollywood?"
"Supporting Zhang Ye! Fuck him! "
"Damn, can he really do it?"
"Who cares if he can win or not, let's fight him first!"
"I'm looking forward to Teacher Zhang's debut in a movie!"
…
Noon.
Back at home.
The welcoming banquet had already been prepared.
Today, the entire family was present. Sisi was leaning against the window on the first floor of the villa, looking outside and listening for the sound of a car!
A car was driving over.
Sisi cried out in surprise, "Daddy! It's Daddy! "
The door opened and Sisi ran out clumsily!
The moment Zhang Ye got out of the car, he saw his daughter running towards him. At that moment, his heart melted. He hurriedly ran forward and bent down to pick up his daughter. As he laughed heartily, he spun her a few times in midair. Then he lowered his head and kissed Sisi more than a dozen times!
"Daddy!"
"My dear daughter, I missed you so much!"
"Daddy, I missed you too!"
"Good girl, good girl!"
Later, the entire family came out.
Wu Zeqing looked at him and said with a smile, "You're a little tanned."
His mother stared at him and said, "How is this a little tanned! You're so tanned you look like a dog's egg! If it wasn't for the license plate number, I wouldn't have recognized you! "
Zhang Ye rolled his eyes. "The sun in Africa is really big."
Li Qinqin said, "Why did you only come home today?"
His father added, "That's right. I saw that Yao Jiancai and Shanshan were already back."
Zhang Ye sighed and said, "I've been out of town the entire time. After the filming wrapped up, I worked with the people from the special effects company to supervise them on the special effects and editing. No one else could come, so I had to handle everything by myself. Luckily, it's all done now. Haha, Zeqing, I've already sent the film to the SARFT this morning. Get them to quickly approve it for me. After that, it'll be time for the publicity, distribution, and release.
Li Qinqin asked with concern, "How was the shoot?"
As Zhang Ye followed them into the house, he carried his daughter and said, "When we first started filming, this bro was still a little unsure and felt a little nervous. After all, it's my first time making a movie, so I don't know how it'll turn out. But after we wrap up the filming, when the special effects are done and the movie is edited, haha, let alone Commando 2, even if Hollywood releases a few more blockbuster movies this year, I'll still fucking dare to go against them!"
Wu Changhe pursed his lips.
His family members were also skeptical of him.
When it was time for dinner, the family sat down to eat.
Li Qinqin smiled and said, "You haven't been home for two months. Do you want to have a drink with your dad?"
Zhang Ye waved it off. "Not today. I still have a press conference tonight."
"You must have suffered a lot this time, right?" Wu Zeqing asked.
Zhang Ye said, "Hai, it was nothing, nothing at all."
His mother muttered, "You even went to Africa? It's so chaotic over there."
"Aiya, it's nothing," Zhang Ye said perfunctorily.
His father said, "Your mom is just afraid that you'll be taken advantage of."
Wu Changhe rolled his eyes at that.
Li Qinqin also laughed.
From the day Zhang Ye debuted, Zhang Ye's parents were always afraid that their son would be taken advantage of. They were afraid that he would be taken advantage of at the radio station, afraid that he would be taken advantage of at Central TV, afraid that he would be taken advantage of when the SARFT banned him, and afraid that he would be taken advantage of when he got into a fight with the Japanese and Koreans!
However, when had this fellow ever been taken advantage of before!
Have you ever seen him be taken advantage of before??
Afraid that Zhang Ye would be taken advantage of — this joke would make everyone laugh for an entire year!
…
On the same night.
At the venue of the press conference.
The equipment for the live broadcast had already been set up. Reporters from all over the country were already waiting at the venue. They were from the newspapers, online media, television stations, and all sorts of reporters from all over the country. As there were too many people, the organizers were not prepared for this. Many of the reporters did not even have a seat, and even after adding over 20 chairs at the last minute, it was still not enough. In the end, some of the reporters could only stand in the aisle or in the last row.
It was a crazy scene.
There had never been a movie press conference like this before!
This was how much attention Zhang Ye had garnered as an international celebrity. It was also a further reflection of the public's interest in Zhang Ye's movie debut!
Backstage.
Ha Qiqi reminded, "There's still two minutes left."
"OK." Zhang Ye was adjusting his clothes.
Zhang Zuo smiled and said, "This is the first promotional event for Wolf Warrior 2, so you'll have to give us some material. Whether or not it can get even more popular will depend on you."
Give us material?
Alright then.
Zhang Ye smiled. "I got it."
Ha Qiqi looked at her watch. "It's time."
Zhang Ye called out, "Let's go."
Yao Jiancai did not come.
Dong Shanshan did not come.
Jiang Hanwei and the others did not come either.
There were no actors today. It was just a press conference with Zhang Ye and the main production team.
When Zhang Ye and his team appeared, the media at the venue blew up!
"Director Zhang!"
"How does it feel to be making a movie for the first time?"
"Why is it called Wolf Warrior 2? When will we be shooting it? "
"How much is the investment for this movie?"
The reporters shouted one after another, asking questions one after the other!
Zhang Ye just smiled and answered them one by one.
On the Internet live broadcast, countless people were also watching eagerly.
From the investment amount, to the filming process, to the actors, Zhang Ye introduced them all. He even bragged about the excellence of his new movie in front of the media. What did a movie's first press conference require? It was nothing more than confidence and posturing. Only in this way could everyone feel how good your movie was. Only in this way could everyone look forward to it and walk into the theater. Zhang Ye was very familiar with this routine. When it came to posturing, he was even more adept at it. Zhang Ye's posturing had always been amazing when he wasn't posturing!
The reporters kept asking questions.
Gradually, the questions shifted from the movie to Zhang Ye.
A female reporter from Xinhua News Agency asked, "You should be the most valuable celebrity in China right now, but everyone knows that you don't take on any commercial appearances. How do you make money then? Can you share with us commoners the secrets of making money? "
The reporters all laughed.
They had thought that Zhang Ye would not answer.
But Zhang Ye said calmly, "How do I make money? I can tell you about that. A lot of young people these days have their own goals. For example, it's right to want to become the richest man in the country. That's what they should strive for, but it's best to set a small goal first. " He held up a finger. His next words made all the reporters at the venue vomit blood. The entire country's citizens watching the live broadcast also vomited blood. "For example, let's say I earn 100 million yuan first. See how many years it will take for me to earn 100 million yuan. Do you plan to do it in five years or three years? After that, I'll aim for 1 billion yuan or 10 billion yuan for my next goal. "
Small goal?
100 million yuan?
1 billion yuan?
10 billion yuan?
My f * cking small goal my * ss!
Three years? Five years?
I can't even fucking earn 100 million yuan in my entire life!
Even Ha Qiqi, Zhang Zuo, and the others, who were beside him, nearly vomited!
Another reporter said dumbfoundedly, "But for people from ordinary families like us —"
But Zhang Ye answered, "Actually, I don't think that I'm especially rich. I come from an ordinary family, and my family's lifestyle hasn't changed much over the years. It's just that our house is a little bigger."
The reporters nearly vomited blood!
The netizens nearly vomited blood!
A little bigger house?
That's a fucking villa!
How is that considered a little bigger!
And you call that an ordinary family?
Your wife is the deputy minister of the Central Publicity Department!
Ordinary family, your grandpa!
The group of reporters were stunned. They stood there in a daze and did not know how to respond.
It was still a reporter from People's Daily who came to the rescue. "Teacher Zhang, can you tell us about the biggest mistake you've ever made?"
Zhang Ye thought for a moment and said, "The biggest mistake I've ever made in my life was establishing Zhang Ye's Studio. I had originally planned for it to be a small company, but I didn't expect that I would have so many responsibilities on me. There are so many problems that I have to deal with every day that take up almost all of my time." Looking at the stunned reporters in the audience, he lamented, "In my next life, if there's a next life, I will never be a celebrity again, nor will I step onto the international stage. I will do my own thing and enjoy life."
The reporters were going crazy!
Fuck your sister!
Why don't you just go and die!
Zhang Zuo's lips were trembling!
Ha Qiqi couldn't bear to listen to him any longer and quickly kicked him with her shoe.
Little Wang was trying to hold back her laughter and was nearly in tears!
Finally, a Central TV reporter came forward to rescue him. "Teacher Zhang, then can you tell us about the most correct thing you've done in your life? Or the one thing that you're most proud of? Uh, like having a good daughter? Or having a beautiful wife? "
This question was very proper.
The reporters thought to themselves, "You can't pretend anymore now, right?"
But never could they have expected that they had still underestimated Zhang Ye!
Zhang Ye shook his head with a serious look on his face. "Actually, I can't recognize faces, so I don't know if someone is beautiful or not. To be honest, when I pursued my wife back then, it was mainly because of her personality that attracted me. That's because I didn't know if she was beautiful or not."
After he said that.
The reporters at the venue went crazy!
The netizens all over the country spluttered!
Even coughing up blood could not express their current feelings!
Would you die if you didn't pretend? Would you die?!
Don't you know if Minister Wu is beautiful or not?
Fuck your second granny!
Fuck your third granduncle!
You've won against Zhang Ye!
You've fucking won!
On this day, the entire country's people were kneeling!
On this day, Zhang Ye gained another nickname!
— Act! Act! Of! King!
