The live broadcast ended.
The internet was filled with cheers!
"What a f * * king classic!"
"A hero's blade never grows old. Old lady's charm remains? Ahahaha! "
"Teacher Zhang Ye's brain is really too fast. It can be called a human treasure. Who knew that a short ten-minute crosstalk work could be said to be so earth-shattering?"
"It was too enjoyable!"
"I'm getting goosebumps just from hearing it! Awesome! "
"It's just that the scale was a little big, haha!"
"It's still alright. The preliminaries will be broadcast online, so there will be a difference in the standards of censorship. The online broadcast will be a lot more lenient, but if it were to be broadcast live on television, a few of Zhang Ye's joke segments and words would have to be changed. We definitely can't let him say that."
"I think we can forget about doing a live broadcast on television. Take a look at the official website. The live broadcast has been stopped. The work of 'I am a Scholar' was still there, but it has now been deleted!"
"What? Deleted? "
"Then why is there a live broadcast?"
"I heard that there was a problem. The live broadcast was wrong!"
"Does that mean that Teacher Zhang and Teacher Yao are still banned indefinitely?"
"Damn, I was happy for nothing. I thought Central TV would stop banning them! So it was a mistake? "
"I am a Scholar" had already disappeared from the crosstalk competition's official website. Many netizens who did not watch the live broadcast rushed over to see why this crosstalk was called a classic by so many people. They immediately cried out. Some people were already jumping up and scolding!
Why is it gone?
We haven't even seen it yet!
Countless people went to the official website to complain, but Central TV Department 11 was indifferent and ignored them.
But just as everyone was feeling regretful, a small video-sharing website posted a video of "I'm a Scholar". It was clearly recorded from a live broadcast. It was exactly the same, and it was even a clear version. Following that, countless video-sharing websites and forums posted Zhang Ye and Yao Jiancai's crosstalk work. Of course, it was not promoted by the websites, but uploaded by netizens.
Everyone was amused!
"It's too timely!"
"Well done. I have to watch it again!"
"Haha, awesome!"
"F * * k! I've finally seen it! No wonder so many people are praising it! This crosstalk is too good! "
At this moment, China's traditional intangible cultural heritage that had been passed down since the Song Dynasty once again showed its prowess — Piracy!
A few video-sharing websites' "I am a Literary Scholar" videos had been deleted. It was unknown if it was the website's operation or the higher-ups' orders. Once they clicked on it, they would discover that the "video does not exist". But following that, other video-sharing websites had even more pirated versions of the videos. If one was deleted, two would be uploaded. There was no end to the deletions. Even on a mainstream video-sharing website, the crosstalk of "I am a Scholar" had been pushed to the top of the rankings. In a short period of time, it had entered the top 20!
At the same time, Zhang Ye and Yao Jiancai's votes soared!
The preliminaries of the National Crosstalk Competition had already been going on for six to seven hours. The competition was extremely intense, and some of the outstanding crosstalk works were highly sought after by the fans. The fans were all voting for the outstanding crosstalk actors in their hearts. Up until now, the first to third place was already very stable. The third place was a dark horse. They were two newcomer crosstalk actors that no one had ever heard of before. The second place was two relatively famous crosstalk actors, while the first place was a popular crosstalk actor who had withdrawn from the previous year's competition due to his unwell body. His competition had not yet begun, and it was not his turn for the preliminaries yet. However, as the popularity he had accumulated last year was too high, some people even estimated that if he had not withdrawn from the competition due to his unwell body, he would definitely have been the champion of the previous year.
As for Tang Dazhang's two disciples in Division C, they were ranked fifth in the preliminaries. In Division C, they were ranked first.
Of course, these numbers were from ten minutes ago when Zhang Ye and Yao Jiancai had not gone on stage. Now, the preliminary rankings had undergone an earth-shattering change!
And it made people not know whether to laugh or cry!
Why? This was because in the voting options on the competition's website, Zhang Ye and Yao Jiancai's names were not written. It was as if these two banned contestants did not exist. On the second page, the names of the Division C contestants were densely packed, but on the eighth row, Division C's number 8 was blank. There was no name written on it, but just like the other contestants, there was a voting option on the far right.
The name was not written, but it could be voted!
Anyone who paid a little attention would be able to guess who the blank name was!
As such, during the live broadcast, the number of votes began to change!
100 votes!
1,000 votes!
2,000 votes!
When the live broadcast ended, when "I'm a Scholar" had flooded the internet, the number of votes stagnated for a moment before exploding!
10,000!
50,000!
100,000!
Finally, under the dumbfounded gazes of countless people, in just half an hour, Teacher Peng, who was previously in first place, was now in second place with 9,000 votes! And first place was actually crosstalk actors with two blank names. Yes! The names were blank! And the number of votes was more than 110,000! It was more than ten times more than the second place Teacher Peng! There were even people who did some calculations and were shocked to discover that the total number of votes obtained by the two blank names of the crosstalk actors was actually … much more than the total number of votes obtained by the top 50 contestants in the crosstalk competition's preliminaries combined!
"F * * k!"
"This is too ferocious!"
"This is crazy!"
"My eyes!"
This was a complete crushing!
It was an inhumane gap!
At this moment, Central TV's Department 11 was shocked. The audience that was paying attention to the competition was shocked. The crosstalk competition's contestants were also shocked!
Many people still did not understand what had happened!
A contestant from Division J exclaimed, "What is this? Why does someone have so many votes? And there's no name? Is there a system error? "
A Division G contestant even went to the complaints section to lodge a complaint, "What happened to first place? There's a problem! Someone must have manipulated the votes! "
A person from Division I shouted, "There's a conspiracy!"
Getting 110,000 votes in half an hour? Is this a f * * king ghost? Impossible! In the past few years of the preliminaries, the person in first place after three rounds of the preliminaries would only have a few tens of thousands of votes, but now? This was only the first day of the preliminaries! How could there be such a heaven-defying number of votes?
This was a complete sweep!
Then why the hell are we still playing? You can say it alone, we can all pack up and go home! This disparity was too great!
However, many of the audience members who knew the truth were overjoyed when they saw this bunch of people reporting and shouting about the conspiracy. It was as if they had discussed it beforehand and left messages to reply.
"Hur Hur, downstairs, maintain formation."
"Hur Hur, downstairs, maintain formation."
"Hur Hur."
A long string of "Hur Hur", there were more than a hundred of them!
Oh right, it's not on the official website. You can only go to other video sites to watch pirated versions. Well, as for the issue of shady dealings, you guessed it right. There is shady dealings, but it's of a banned nature. The votes of the two nameless people you saw were actually obtained under the circumstances of a complete ban. If they weren't banned, and the official website could write their names and upload their videos, I believe the votes would be even higher! "
The overall ranking of first place was too glaring!
110,000 votes was too glaring!
Even if they did not give their names, Central TV Department 11 still gave themselves a fig leaf. But as long as they voted for these two "nameless" people, which one of them did not know who they were? Zhang Ye and Yao Jiancai had used their crosstalk to conquer the entire audience. That was why they had such an overwhelming number of votes! This was because after watching "I'm a Scholar", the audience found it hard to swallow when they watched other crosstalk works that they thought were not bad! It was like the difference between a Scud missile and an atomic bomb! They were both bombs, but they were fundamentally different! The latter was much more advanced than the former in terms of technology! It was the same for Zhang Ye's crosstalk!
"First place!"
"Everyone is so supportive!"
"Hahaha, so many people are supporting Teacher Zhang and Teacher Yao?"
"Because everyone's aesthetic standards are about the same. This first place is indeed well-deserved. There's nothing else to say, nor is there anything to doubt!"
"I think some people's faces are already swollen!"
"Those people who were shouting that Zhang Ye was done for, why don't you appear and shout it again for me to see! Under the situation of being banned, Teacher Zhang Ye was still able to turn the tide and enter the eyes of the entire country. He can do whatever he wants. How heaven-defying is this! So what if he was banned? Teacher Zhang Ye can still increase his popularity! He can still continue to shine in the entertainment industry! "
"That's right!"
"Zhang Ye will not fall!"
"Teacher Zhang did not do anything wrong! Being banned was too aggrieving! Now, I'm happy for Teacher Zhang Ye! I've finally vented my anger! "
"Old Yao was also wronged."
"Haha, a Like for these two Teachers!"
"No matter what winds blow in the east, west, and north! Now, thinking of Teacher Zhang's poem, it really raises our spirits! Teacher Zhang did not disappoint us! Well done! "
"For two people to be so tenacious in a desperate situation, even though they knew it was impossible, they still stood on the stage and shouted out their voices. Don't you think that's admirable? No matter how the outside world evaluates Zhang Ye, in my heart, Zhang Ye is a hero! "
"Heroes never fall!"
"Teacher Zhang, hold on!"
Zhang Ye and Yao Jiancai's tenacious "struggle" touched many people. Everyone began posting and cheering for them!
......
On the preliminary rankings, the unnamed person's votes were still soaring!
As for the Celebrity Rankings evaluation website, Zhang Ye, who was about to be overtaken by Tang Dazhang, exploded once again. On the second page, he had jumped up by three or four ranks. He was no longer in the bottom three of the C-list rankings, while Tang Dazhang was still hovering around the D-list rankings. Every time he was about to catch up to Zhang Ye, he just could not surpass him. And today, with the release of "I'm a Scholar", Tang Dazhang's promotion to the C-list rankings was even more distant. Rather than thinking of surpassing Zhang Ye, it looked like it was more practical to surpass the person who was last on the C-list rankings. After this crosstalk, the gap between Zhang Ye and Tang Dazhang was getting bigger and bigger!
