The next day.
Bayi Lake, Central TV Tower.
The moment Zhang Ye stepped through the entrance of the office, it became very lively!
"Hey! It's Zhang Ye! "
"It's really him!"
"Director Zhang has finally come to work!"
"Did you guys see the news yesterday?"
"I did! An unprecedented perfect score in the Judicial Examination! "
"That's f * cking awesome!"
"My son also took the Judicial Examination last year, so he knows about the market in this area. Yesterday, my son told me in shock that the highest score in the history of the Judicial Examination was only 502 points. He was also the only one who scored more than 500 points. The rest of the examinees didn't even manage to score more than 500 points. But in the end, Zhang Ye managed to break the record of 502 points by almost 100 points? My son said that the entire legal world was shocked by this! "
"He's really too awesome!"
"How did he pass the exam like that!"
"This is Zhang Ye, a godly person!"
"The news has been all about Zhang Ye these past few days. He's been in the headlines almost every day. Initially, after The Voice ended, Zhang Ye did not release any new works. If it were any other celebrity, their popularity would definitely have gradually declined. It would have been best if their popularity had remained the same. But Zhang Ye? Not only did his popularity not drop, it even seemed to have increased by quite a bit. Looking at the latest Celebrity Rankings Index from yesterday, Zhang Ye has moved up another spot in the B-list rankings! "
Venting his frustrations by defending his rights!
Stealing the limelight!
His popularity rose again!
Zhang Ye had been in a good mood during this period. It could be seen from his expression when he came to work today. He had a relaxed look on his face and was even humming a tune as he got into the elevator.
Upstairs.
In the former program team office of The Voice.
When Zhang Ye walked in, everyone in the office stood up.
"Ah, Director Zhang!" Little Wang said in surprise.
Ha Qiqi smiled and said, "Good morning, Director Zhang."
Zhang Zuo said, "Good morning, Director Zhang. Congratulations on passing the Judicial Examination!"
Wu Yi gave him a thumbs up. "Yeah, you're still the best."
Zhang Ye smiled and said, "There's nothing to congratulate me about. I'm just here to join in the fun. My old profession is still hosting, so I'm back at work anyway."
Regarding everyone's shock, Zhang Ye did not feel anything at all. From what they were saying, he could tell just how difficult the Judicial Examination's paper was. However, Zhang Ye really did not have much of an idea. This fellow had practically memorized all the books related to the law that he could buy and read in this world. All the legal provisions and theoretical knowledge were imprinted in his mind without missing a single word. Even when answering the questions, he was just writing down the answers out of reflex, so it would be a wonder if he had any idea at all. However, Zhang Ye was still quite satisfied with the results. The increase in his popularity score was a positive sign. At least he had not been busy these past few days in vain, and the Reputation Points he had spent were not wasted either. He was one step closer to becoming an A-list celebrity!
He had brought the buns he had bought downstairs. Zhang Ye did not return to his office, but found an empty seat outside and sat down. As he ate, he chatted with everyone, "Have we been doing well these past few days?"
Ha Qiqi gave a wry smile. "Which aspect are you referring to?"
"In every aspect," Zhang Ye said.
Ha Qiqi said with a hidden meaning in her words, "In every aspect … I'm actually fine. In fact, I'm exceptionally fine."
Zhang Ye was amused. "What do you mean by exceptionally fine?"
Zhang Zuo threw up his hands. "Our group of people has been idling about for many days now. Ever since the new program was announced, there has been no news from the higher-ups. As for other work, the higher-ups did not assign any tasks to us either. There were no tasks assigned to us at all, and not even a single outsider came to our office during these past few days. All of us had nothing to do and could only stay in the office to play games and chat. The higher-ups seem to have forgotten about our program team.
Little Wang corrected, "It's not forgotten, it's abandoned."
Zhang Ye looked at them and said, "I'm the one who implicated everyone. I'm sorry about that."
Zhang Zuo hurriedly said, "Look at what you're saying, how could that be possible!"
Ha Qiqi also immediately said, "If it weren't for you, how could our program team be where it is today? Where would we be? You're treating us like outsiders by saying that, Director Zhang! "
Wu Yi also understood very well. "From the moment Central TV Department 1 set their sights on your copyrights, they were already prepared to abandon us. It's not like you're to be blamed for this."
Zhang Ye waved it off and said, "No matter what the reason was, no matter what, this lawsuit against Central TV Department 1 was my personal decision and choice. If this matter affects your work in the future, I'll apologize first. But if anyone of you doesn't want to continue working at Central TV in the future, just let me know. I'll help you find some connections and I'll definitely let you all have a good future. Although my reputation in the industry isn't that good, I still have my reputation."
Ha Qiqi said, "You're still here, so why should we leave?"
Zhang Zuo also said, "It's still too early to say that. Who knows, there might still be a turn for the better."
A female staff member said, "Director Zhang, then what should we do now?"
Little Wang said, "Yes, assign us some tasks."
"Now?" Zhang Ye thought for a moment, then said, "Let's just watch the movie by ourselves."
Someone thought for a moment and immediately said, "Right, let's watch the movie to recharge our batteries!"
Another person said, "There are a lot of things to learn from in the movie. It'll be of great help to us when we make the show."
Another person said in admiration, "Director Zhang is still the one who sees the long term. That's right, we can't be dispirited. We can't just sit back and do nothing just because the higher-ups are ignoring us. We have to continue expanding ourselves and keep improving ourselves!"
Everyone pulled themselves together and started shouting slogans!
But when Zhang Ye heard that, he was speechless. He coughed and said, "Isn't it because we have nothing better to do? Let's watch a movie or play games, it doesn't really matter."
Everyone: "…"
Damn, so there was no other meaning to it? So they could do whatever they wanted?
Ha Qiqi tried to be cheerful and said, "We'll listen to Director Zhang and do whatever we want. We'll still be getting paid anyway, so we can just treat it as a vacation. Isn't that good?"
Little Wang said, "Then, then should I play the online parade?"
Zhang Ye laughed and said, "Why not? No one cares anyway. "
Little Wang said, "That's great! There's actually such a good thing! "
Zhang Ye said, "That's right, our good days have officially begun. All the things that everyone wanted to do but were too embarrassed to do in the office have been decided by me now. As long as you don't destroy the office, you can do anything you want. If you want to take time off, I'll approve it. Even if you don't show up, it doesn't matter.
"Alright!"
"Thank you, Director Zhang."
"Damn, isn't this a little too relaxing?"
"Is it appropriate?"
Zhang Ye smiled and said, "If I say it's appropriate, then it's appropriate."
Actually, when Zhang Ye was not around, they had been playing games and watching movies and television dramas for the past few days. But most of it was done in secret. If anyone passed by, they would subconsciously minimize the window as they were afraid of being seen by the higher-ups. But now, Zhang Ye, as their leader, had actually given the word for everyone to play and watch as they pleased. Everyone was really not used to it.
When Zhang Ye returned to the office, everyone got busy.
Little Wang opened up a very famous foreign puzzle game, Fishing Master, to play.
Next to her, Little Li blinked and said, "You're really playing it?"
Little Wang said, "Didn't Director Zhang say so?"
"Damn, you sure aren't holding back!" Old Li nearly fainted.
Little Wang giggled and said, "Then why should I hold back? I'm just following orders to play this game. Do you guys want to play? This game is really good and is very popular both domestically and abroad. It's the pinnacle of puzzle games these days. The key is that you can connect to the internet within a certain range and exchange items. "
Ha Qiqi looked over. "I've heard of this game before too."
Zhang Zuo said, "I've already cleared the game, but since I have nothing to do, I'll play it with you guys."
"I'm next too."
"Little Wang, how do we connect?"
"Me too, let's catch some fish together!"
"Ah, I caught a big one! It's golden! "
"What? Give it to me, give it to me! Quick, give it to me! "
"Go away, I'm not giving it to you. I'm the one who caught it!"
"Aiya, that goldfish is a BOSS item. I've been stuck at this stage all this time!"
For a moment, The Voice's program team office was filled with the clicking of the mouse and keyboard, as well as everyone's shouts. It was really lively!
It just so happened that a few Central TV Department 1 colleagues happened to pass by. When they saw this scene from the door, they looked at each other and were a little dumbfounded!
Holy shit!
What the hell is going on?
These guys are not going to work and playing games together? This … this is way too relaxing!
Some of them thought that Zhang Ye's program team would definitely not have a good time after this incident, but who could have expected that his program team would be the most fucking relaxed in the entire Central TV! Don't you guys know that you've been banned? Don't you guys know that you've been frozen by the unit? How can you guys be so carefree! You can still play games together so happily at a time like this?
What the heck!
I've seen carefree people, but I've never seen anyone this carefree!
A few of the colleagues who passed by found it funny and angry at the same time. They had been working themselves to the bone these past few days, so when they saw this scene, they naturally felt it was unfair. They wanted to say something to them, but when they remembered that Zhang Ye had come to work today, no one dared to go in and say anything to them. Who could win against Zhang Ye? Who in the entire Central TV Department 1 would dare to provoke this guy? As such, they could only walk away helplessly. Out of sight, out of mind!
For the entire morning, the staff of Zhang Ye's program team spent their time happily playing games. During this time, they passed by countless of their colleagues, and even a department head of Central TV Department 1. When they saw this, they were all speechless. But in the end, no one said anything and just walked away.
No one dared to care about them.
No one cared about them either.
Central TV Department 1 was currently embroiled in lawsuits. Although the two lawsuits were brought against Central TV as the subject of the case, they were both directed at Central TV Department 1. Many of the people who were implicated in those cases were also extremely busy these past few days. They had to help Department 1 gather evidence, talk to the staff members who were involved in those cases, and also manage their own programs. They were all so busy that they were going crazy. It was the same for the leaders of Central TV Department 1. Not only did they have to prepare for the court hearing, they also had to handle public opinion and public relations. With a whole mess to clean up, who could care about Zhang Ye!
