It was a mess!
The scene was in chaos!
More than twenty youths and a few older brothers and sisters were surrounding Lee Anson and his two bodyguards. The Central TV staff and security personnel were trying their best to stop the fight. Some of the celebrities and veteran artists on the periphery were trying to dissuade them. There were also some hardcore fans of Lee Anson who rushed forward to protect Lee Anson. As they were all young girls, no one dared to make a move against them. They could only avoid them with their hands tied. Some of them were scratched by Lee Anson's brainless fans. They could not beat or scold these young girls, so they could only take a few hits.
"He's trying to run!"
"Beat up Lee Anson!"
"All of you, stop right now!"
"Anson-oppa!"
"Ah! Who scratched me!? "
"He even scolded us as an inferior race! Why are you still helping him? "
"We just like Anson-oppa! We like whatever he scolds! "
That scene was extremely chaotic. There were about a hundred people tangled together, and no one could pull them apart!
At this moment, there were sounds coming from two directions in the distance. There were sounds of chatting and laughter. There were people coming out from the special passageway, and there were also quite a number of audience members and reporters coming out from the main entrance. It had been too long here. The live broadcast of the Spring Festival Gala had ended!
A rather famous gala host was walking out with a few friends, laughing. He was here as an audience member today and was having a great time chatting. "I still prefer Sister Zhang and Auntie Zhang's' Woman Flower '. This song, Jane..." Suddenly, he turned his head and saw the fighting scene. He was immediately dumbfounded!
"What's going on?"
"What's going on?"
"Aiyah, they're fighting!"
"What's going on over the new year!?"
Everyone who came out from the venue of the Spring Festival Gala was stunned to see this scene. No one had expected the joyous atmosphere inside to turn into such a "fierce" scene after coming out from behind a wall!
"Quick, see what's going on!"
"Call for help! Call for help first! "
A minor person-in-charge of Central TV also turned pale. He had wanted to resolve the problem as soon as possible before it caused too much of an impact. But unexpectedly, the Spring Festival Gala had already ended and several thousand people had come out. Furthermore, none of them were ordinary people. Among them were either government officials, celebrities, or their family members. All of them were people of repute and status. Even if they wanted to hide it and minimize the impact, it was impossible!
As expected, quite a few of the Central TV leaders came out as well. They were all busy with the live broadcast of the Spring Festival Gala earlier, so no one dared to disturb them. Their cell phones were also switched off. When they heard the news, all of them rushed out in a panic. When they saw what was happening, they were all infuriated!
"Stop!"
"What are you doing?"
"Hurry up and pull them away!"
"Stop fighting! I'm the Deputy Station Head of Central TV! What's the matter? Tell me! "
However, no one listened to them. No matter how they shouted from outside, be it the Central TV Deputy Station Head or the security personnel, the people surrounding Lee Anson did not listen. No one dispersed!
When Zhang Ye saw this, he was afraid that everyone would be beaten up badly. A few punches would be enough, but it would not be good if they got seriously injured. He squeezed through the crowd and said, "Everyone, stop fighting. That's enough!" This time, there was no need for Lee Anson to apologize. Seeing his bruised face, he probably wouldn't be able to say anything. The two bodyguards were in a similar state as Lee Anson. Their faces were disfigured from the beating, but it was obvious that they did not suffer any serious injuries. They were probably just superficial wounds. At most, they would be dislocated. The commoners did not beat them to death, nor did they use any weapons. They were just punching and kicking to vent their anger.
No one's words were of any use.
But when Zhang Ye shouted, a lot of people stopped.
"Stop!"
"Stop fighting!"
"Listen to Teacher Zhang!"
"Right, listen to Teacher Zhang!"
The crowd slowly dispersed. A big sister was still angry and spat on the ground. Only then did she retreat more than ten meters away from the crowd.
The Central TV leader was stunned. They had been shouting for so long to no avail. But when this person shouted, they dispersed?
The other celebrities, Spring Festival Gala audience, and reporters were also at a loss. Why was this young man's words so effective? It was as if a hundred people responded to his call! Teacher Zhang Ye? Who was it? Holy sh * t, could it be that rumored Zhang Ye? The one ranked first on the SARFT's blacklist?
Heh!
It really was him!
Someone recognized him!
Actually, the reason why the commoners did not listen to others and listened to Zhang Ye was mainly because Zhang Ye was the leader of this incident. When the thin girl was bullied, no one stood forward to do anything. Only Zhang Ye stood forward to seek justice for the little girl. He did not even mind damaging his own reputation to block the entrance. Just based on this point, everyone was very convinced of him!
On the other side, the Central TV person-in-charge from before quickly went forward and explained to the Central TV leader what had happened. His explanation was rather objective as he described what had happened at the scene. Quite a number of people around also heard it and understood what had happened!
There were too many people. There were three layers of people inside and three layers outside.
Many people who had come out from the venue had gathered around to watch the commotion. There were also a number of people who had urgent matters to attend to. As it did not concern them, they left in a hurry.
Suddenly, police sirens blared!
Two police cars drove over and entered the Central TV compound!
Yang Jie got out of the car and led a few policemen over suspiciously. When he received the call, he was also celebrating the new year at home. The person who made the call did not explain clearly. He just said that someone was going to be beaten to death at Central TV Broadcasting Studio 1. Yang Jie was puzzled. Central TV Broadcasting Studio 1? Wasn't that the venue of the Spring Festival Gala? How could something happen there? But with so many people making the call, he could not ignore it. He immediately contacted a few policemen and rushed over. When he saw the scene, he saw three people sitting on the ground. Their faces were all bruised and swollen. Someone had really been beaten up!
The two burly men looked sullen.
Lee Anson covered his face. His expression was filled with anger!
Eh, wait!
Wasn't this Lee Anson?
Didn't he just sing on the live broadcast of the Spring Festival Gala?
Yang Jie was dumbfounded. He had also watched the Spring Festival Gala. Furthermore, Lee Anson was a celebrity that his daughter liked very much. When he watched the Spring Festival Gala, he had heard his daughter talk about him for a long time!
"Superintendent Yang!"
"Yo, Director Sun, what's the matter?"
"Let me tell you …"
The two of them knew each other. They were old acquaintances.
About a few minutes later, Yang Jie and the few policemen understood what had happened. Without exception, they all looked at Zhang Ye, who was standing there, with different looks in their eyes. Zhang Ye's name was rather famous in the Beijing Public Security System. Previously, Zhang Ye had beaten up the son of their Beijing Television Station's Leader and was detained by the police station. After that, that police station nearly caused a ruckus by Zhang Ye. Finally, they had no choice but to release Zhang Ye due to the pressure of public opinion. Hence, when Yang Jie and the few policemen knew that the person who caused trouble was Zhang Ye, their first reaction was a headache!
When Lee Anson saw the police, he immediately shouted, "(… … ¥# # @ @!"
The thin bodyguard helped him up and translated his words. It was nothing more than a protest or a lawsuit. The bodyguard was also very indignant. They had been in China for a long time now, but they had never encountered such a situation before. Getting beaten up? To others, it might not be a big deal, but to a popular celebrity, the negative impact was too great. It could very well affect Lee Anson's career development in China!
Kacha!
Kacha!
A lot of people were taking pictures with their cell phones!
Lee Anson roared, "% ¥# #!"
The bodyguard stood in front of him, not allowing others to take pictures!
The situation was already very clear. Yang Jie also had his own judgment. He walked over to Zhang Ye and said, "Were you the one who beat them up?"
Zhang Ye said openly, "It was me."
Yang Jie was helpless, "Then you will have to come with us."
Ci Xiufang came forward at this moment, "It's the new year. Why don't you make an exception?"
Yang Jie looked at her. He knew her but he had only seen her on television. He often saw her in skits but he had forgotten her name. "We're just doing our job. It's New Year's Eve and no one wants this to happen. However, we still have to settle this."
There were commoners who spoke up for Zhang Ye.
"Why are you bringing him along?"
"It was Lee Anson and his bodyguard who started it!"
"Right, if you want to arrest someone, you should arrest Lee Anson and company!"
"Teacher Zhang Ye was helping to seek justice out of the kindness of his heart! What right do you have to bring him away!? "
A policeman behind said, "But you can't kick him."
Yang Jie stopped the policeman from continuing and said to everyone, "We are not arresting him. We are just bringing him back to investigate. Zhang Ye wants to go with us, and so does Lee Anson. Everyone, make way!"
The Central TV Leaders discussed a little, but did not appear. They did not say anything either. This matter was handed over to the police station to handle.
Zhang Ye was very straightforward and did not resist. He followed the policeman to the front of the police car.
Lee Anson was very unhappy. He nagged at the policeman for a long time and even pointed at Zhang Ye a few times. Clearly, he did not want to go to the police station to waste time.
The thin bodyguard translated.
Yang Jie also constantly spoke to Lee Anson.
At this point, the matter was almost over. However, there would definitely be an explosion in the aftermath. This was something that did not need to be asked. With such a big matter happening, it would probably be on the headlines tomorrow on the internet!
The onlookers did not disperse. The celebrities, the Central TV people, and the audience were all discussing.
"Sigh, why bother."
"This Zhang Ye is really great."
"No wonder he's first on the SARFT's blacklist. He's really extraordinary!"
"I think he's quite a genuine person. I've heard that he would go bankrupt for his fans and even sell his car and copyright to save them. His character is quite good."
"Come on, he doesn't know his limits. What day is it today? Where is this place? This is the Spring Festival Gala. He shouldn't be causing trouble like this! "
"There's a problem with the way he handled things. No matter what, he shouldn't have made a move. Besides, the other party is a celebrity, and a Korean celebrity at that. If it gets serious, it might even implicate diplomatic relations."
They began to criticize Zhang Ye from head to toe!
There were also Lee Anson's hardcore fans who were wiping their tears and scolding Zhang Ye. Lee Anson had been beaten up so badly that they felt their hearts ache!
"Zhang Ye! You and I are irreconcilable! "
"How dare you hit our Anson-oppa! What kind of person are you!? "
"You even keep saying you're seeking justice for us? That girl was knocked down by Anson-oppa. That's her good fortune! We even wanted to be knocked down! What has it got to do with you? It's none of your business! "
"Mind your own business!"
"Anson-oppa! Sob sob sob, how are you? "
"Will I be disfigured?"
"Anson-oppa! Let's sue him! We can't let this go! "
"Zhang Ye! You're a bastard! "
At this moment, there were still so many hardcore fans speaking up for Lee Anson. The group of girls kept chattering. The venue was filled with their cursing and crying. A fat girl even squeezed her way in and took out a band-aid for Lee Anson. She respectfully handed it over with both hands.
Lee Anson received the band-aid, "# @ # ¥."
The fat girl nearly fainted from excitement. She immediately beamed with joy, "Anson-oppa spoke to me! He spoke to me! "She actually did not know what he was talking about.
Upon seeing this scene, Zhang Ye felt his heart ache.
Suddenly, more than twenty reporters squeezed in. Some of them were carrying cameras. Some were from other newspapers and television stations, while others were Central TV reporters. They were nearby and had rushed over the moment they received the news. Today was the day of the live broadcast of the Spring Festival Gala, so there would definitely be a lot of reporters and people from the television stations. Originally, no one had come here to catch any social news or entertainment news. They were all here for the Spring Festival Gala, but who knew that they would encounter such an unexpected incident. As news workers, they naturally would not let go of such an incident!
Seven or eight reporters went to Lee Anson's side.
Three to five reporters went to the side to interview the celebrities and audience who were present.
There were also about ten reporters who surrounded Zhang Ye, who was in front of the police car. One by one, they rushed over with their spears and questions!
"Teacher Zhang, why are you here?"
"Did you hit Lee Anson?"
"Why did you kick him?"
"Back when the girl was pushed down, Lee Anson wanted to turn around and leave. No one stopped him, so why did you go up?"
"Do you think your actions were right?"
"I saw a lot of people scolding you at the scene. What do you think of this?"
"Teacher Zhang Ye, don't stay silent. Please answer us. Why did you hit him? What was your motive and motive for hitting him? Don't you know that this will not benefit you at all? Your reputation will be tarnished and you will be implicated. You might even face detention at the police station. I don't understand. Why? "
The reporters asked one question after another!
Actually, this was something that many of the people present did not understand. Yes, why!? What are you after?
Zhang Ye looked at Lee Anson, who was about to get into the car with the police. He looked at the celebrities and audience pointing at him, and then heard the scolding from the little girls …
Why?
Why?
Zhang Ye's face was calm. He turned his head towards the camera and the group of reporters, and suddenly said to everyone, "If I were a bird."
Everyone was stunned! If? He was a bird? What did he mean? What are you saying? Then a moment later, everyone reacted. This was a modern poem. Zhang Ye did not use words to answer their questions, but used a poem to speak! What was he trying to say? What was he trying to express? Momentarily, there was silence. This was because everyone knew that Zhang Ye was not famous for his television programs, nor was it his ability to write songs, but his poems! Even those hardcore fans who were scolding Zhang Ye and Lee Anson stopped their scolding. They wanted to hear what he had to say!
Zhang Yuanqi looked over!
Ci Xiufang was slightly stunned and also looked at Zhang Ye!
Central TV's Deputy Station Head and countless celebrities present, as well as Yang Jie and the policemen from the police station, all subconsciously looked at Zhang Ye!
Zhang Ye's expression was very calm. It was as tasteless as water, but his voice was filled with emotion. It was as if his throat was filled with endless grief and indignation. It was about to explode, but it lacked the strength!
"If I were a bird.
"I should also sing with a hoarse throat.
"The storm-battered land."
"This river of grief and indignation that always surges with us.
"The incessant, angry wind that blows."
"And the incomparably gentle dawn that comes from the forest."
Closing his eyes, Zhang Ye clenched his fists. His eyes were still as calm as before.
"— Then I died!
"Even my feathers rotted in the soil!
"Why do I always have tears in my eyes?
"Because I love this land … deeply!"
This was Ai Qing's famous "I Love This Land" poem from the language textbooks of Zhang Ye's previous world. Today, on this occasion, on the eve of the new year, Zhang Ye had brought it out!
After saying that, Zhang Ye took one last look at those Chinese people who were madly in love with a Korean celebrity who looked down on them and even treated them with contempt. Zhang Ye opened the police car door and got into the car without looking back. He did not know what he was feeling at this moment. Was it disappointment? Grief? Anger? Or calmness? Probably only the poem "I Love This Land" could describe his current feelings!
Ci Xiufang took a deep breath. She could not believe it. She found it hard to imagine that such a poem would come out of the mouth of a young man who had never experienced war or the glorious era!
Central TV's Deputy Station Head was also stunned!
Many of the older comrades present were visibly moved!
The reporters did not say a word. No one chased after Zhang Ye to question him!
The surrounding celebrities and audience also did not make any comments about Zhang Ye!
The moment this poem was said, it was as if the entire scene of 12,000 people suddenly turned silent. It made almost everyone speechless, as they did not know what to say. They did not know how to continue. They could only watch Yang Jie and the policemen drive away Zhang Ye and Lee Anson. With the poem lingering in their minds, their emotions suddenly turned complicated and heavy. The thousands of words they wanted to say were stuck in their throats, as they could not say them!
Why did Zhang Ye beat him up?
Why did Zhang Ye stand out to block Lee Anson's path even though he knew that he would get into huge trouble?
Was he stupid? He was not stupid!
Was he stupid? He was not stupid either!
He knew the consequences, but he still did it! There was no hesitation!
Previously, many people were wondering why he did it. Actually, there was no reason at all! Because Zhang Ye loved this land from the bottom of his heart!
