"Zhang Ye is hiring an agent!"
"Fierce competition in the agent circle!"
"Who will become Zhang Ye's agent?"
Online, some media outlets also published some news. Some nosy reporters even did a special feature on the comparison of celebrity agents. They listed the situations and contributions of Zhang Yuanqi, Huo Dongfang, Ning Lan, and other celebrity agents to sort out the current state of the agent circle.
The netizens were also very happy.
"Haha!"
"Teacher Zhang has finally been enlightened!"
"Hurry up and find out who can do the job!"
"It won't be easy to be Teacher Zhang's agent!"
"Yeah, it's too difficult!"
"With Zhang Ye's popularity, his agent will definitely be under the most pressure in the industry! Every time Teacher Zhang gets into a fight, his agent will have to deal with the media. Most people won't be able to do it! "
"They'll still have to guard against getting beaten up!"
"Pfft, that's right!"
"Teacher Zhang is too hated in the industry!"
Some of these words were originally meant as a joke, but no one could have expected that the joke would actually turn out to be true!
No one knew which private gathering it came from, nor did they know who exposed it, but a piece of news that was published online had caused a huge stir! A popular martial arts A-list superstar had publicly declared in the industry — whoever dared to become Zhang Ye's agent, he would "take care" of that person!
Jiang Hanwei!
— A domestic A-list celebrity!
— The number one martial arts star in the country!
— A famous movie superstar. His box office appeal in the martial arts industry was unparalleled. As long as it was a movie with his name as the lead, the box office earnings would not be less than 100 million! He was the most famous martial arts star in the industry, and there was no one else like him! Not only that, he was also a true martial arts expert. When he was only 16 years old, he was already the champion of the National Youth Martial Arts Competition. Later on, he won many other martial arts awards. He was a superstar with real martial arts skills! In the A-list Celebrity Rankings, he was even ranked higher than Zhang Ye!
For such a big shot among big shots to publicly make such a statement, many netizens found it unbelievable when they saw it!
What did he mean by "take care" of that person?
Did that mean that he would beat up whoever became Zhang Ye's agent?
Jiang Hanwei was well known to have a short temper, but it wasn't like Zhang Ye's bad temper. He was more hot-tempered. Since his debut, he had been involved in many beatings. He had beaten up a reporter, an assistant director, a celebrity who was filming with him, and even some troublemaking fans. As such, everyone in the industry knew about Jiang Hanwei's temper. Most people would not easily provoke him. He was a big brother of the entertainment industry!
That was why the netizens were shocked!
"F * ck!"
"What happened?"
"Why did Jiang Hanwei come out?"
"What is Teacher Jiang doing?"
"Why, why is he fighting with Zhang Ye?"
"This is fake news, right?"
"I also think it's fake. Why would Teacher Jiang say such things?"
"That's right. From what I know, he doesn't have any enmity with Zhang Ye?"
"Who can tell me what happened?"
"Isn't Jiang Hanwei being too overbearing? F * ck, I'm not allowed to find an agent? What kind of logic is that? Who do you think you are? The boss of the entertainment industry? "
"That's just how he is. Whatever he does, he has the air of a Jianghu!"
"He's a martial artist. If he says he's going to teach someone a lesson, then he'll definitely teach them a lesson!"
"Damn, you think Teacher Zhang is afraid of you?"
"Who the f * ck are you?"
For a moment, the Internet was in an uproar!
Even the people involved probably didn't expect the matter to become so big!
Although they didn't know if the news was real or not, the fans took it seriously. On Weibo, Zhang Ye's fans and Jiang Hanwei's fans immediately clashed!
Zhang Ye's fans: "Fuck your mother!"
Jiang Hanwei's fans: "Fuck your mother!"
Zhang Ye's fans: "Is the entertainment industry run by your family?"
Jiang Hanwei's fans: "Teacher Jiang must have some enmity with that Zhang guy. Since Teacher Jiang dares to say something like that, then he must have his reasons. Are you guys not convinced?"
Zhang Ye's fans: "You guys sure are awesome, huh?"
Jiang Hanwei's fans: "We've always been awesome! What's the matter? "
There were also a lot of people trying to mediate the fight!
"Calm down, everyone!"
"The news might not be true!"
"There's too much fake news these days!"
…
Back at home.
Even Zhang Ye thought that the news was fake and did not take it seriously.
But the phone calls that followed made him think otherwise!
A call from Chen Guang came in. "When did you offend Jiang Hanwei?"
Zhang Ye was taken aback. He said with a laugh, "You even believe in fake news?"
"You haven't offended him before?" Chen Guang said in surprise.
Zhang Ye said, "I don't even know him, so how could I have offended him? At most, I only know his name and watched a few of his kungfu movies. "
Chen Guang was silent for a moment. "Be careful. This person really does mean what he says!"
"Huh?" Zhang Ye didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
Following that, Zhang Yuanqi's agent, Fang Weihong, also called!
Fang Weihong immediately said, "Did you offend Old Jiang?"
Zhang Ye said in a speechless manner, "I've never even met him before!"
Fang Weihong pondered for a moment and said, "I'll still help you look for an agent, but don't get your hopes up yet. I'm guessing that this matter will have to wait for now."
Zhang Ye was amused. "What's the meaning of this, Sister Fang?"
"Old Jiang is a big brother in the industry. Although he's offended some people, he's also helped quite a few celebrities before. Everyone recognizes him, and he has a very high status in the industry. He's also very popular. Now that he's announced that he's looking for trouble with you, you might really be in a bit of trouble. As long as it's someone in the industry, who would still dare to be your agent at this time? At the very least, they'll have to get past this critical juncture. Do you really not know why? "Fang Weihong asked again.
Zhang Ye retorted, "Oh, so it's not fake news then?"
"What fake news!" Fang Weihong said, "It's already spread throughout the industry! It was Old Jiang who shouted those words at a gathering! And his original words weren't as elegant as that. He didn't say that he wanted to teach your agent a lesson, but that he would beat up anyone who dares to be your agent! "
Zhang Ye narrowed his eyes. "Is that so?"
Fang Weihong sighed. "In any case, you better be careful. This person is really not to be trifled with. I have some influence in the industry, so I'll help you ask around and see if this matter can be resolved."
However, Zhang Ye said, "There's no need for that, Sister Fang. I'll settle it myself!"
Zhang Xia's call came!
"Little Zhang, what's going on?"
"I don't know either."
"Is this fake news?"
"I think it's real."
Yao Jiancai heard about it!
Dong Shanshan also called him!
Zhang Ye's friends were all very surprised. They did not know why Jiang Hanwei had suddenly gotten into a fight with Zhang Ye. His friends also expressed their worries! This was because the person who had gotten into a fight with Zhang Ye this time was not some unknown person. It wasn't some little-known athlete from the sporting world, nor was it a crosstalk actor like Tang Dazhang who did not have many fans. It was a bona fide A-list superstar, a martial arts superstar who was even more popular than Zhang Ye! In the entertainment industry, a fight between A-list celebrities like this was rarely seen. But when it did, it was definitely not a small matter!
Very quickly, the agents that Zhang Ye had contacted earlier all came back with messages!
The first one:
"Teacher Zhang."
"Ai, Ms. Xu."
"I've been having some health problems recently and will need to be hospitalized. About that … let's postpone our meeting. I'm really sorry, really sorry."
"Oh, it's fine. Your health is more important. Take care of yourself."
The second one:
"Teacher Zhang."
"Yes?"
"I've thought about it. I'm still not good enough to be your agent."
"It's fine."
"I'm sorry."
The third one:
"Teacher Zhang, I might not be able to see you in the afternoon."
"What's the matter?"
"Teacher Jiang Hanwei's seniority in the industry is too high. I'm just a nobody, I —"
"I understand, it's fine."
"I'm sorry."
Everyone rejected the offer!
No one dared to accept the job of Zhang Ye's agent anymore!
Jiang Hanwei's words were too harsh. For many agents, getting beaten up was already considered a light punishment. But in reality, it was not as simple as getting beaten up once. It was very likely that they would get beaten up several times, and it might even cause them to be unable to continue in the industry anymore. For the sake of applying for a job that they didn't even know if they could get hired, they had to risk getting beaten up and ruining their entire career as an agent? No one was willing to do that! If it were Zhang Yuanqi, then so be it. With Sister Zhang's reputation in the industry, Jiang Hanwei would not dare to say something like that. Even if he did, no one would care about it because Sister Zhang would be able to protect them! But Zhang Ye was different. This fellow was too unpopular. He had no connections and no friends. Compared to Jiang Hanwei, it was clear that Jiang Hanwei was the more oppressive one! His words carried more weight!
His parents also found out about this!
His mother got angry on the spot. "Jiang Hanwei? To think that I quite liked his kungfu movies! What right does that old bastard have to stop my son from finding an agent? "
Even someone as good-tempered as his father was getting angry. "Isn't that a little too much?"
His mother shouted, "Find, continue looking for your agent! I don't believe that he would really dare to hit someone! "
Zhang Ye said calmly, "I've already rejected the agents that I contacted earlier."
"What?" When his mother heard that, she scolded even more fiercely. "Did my son fucking offend you?"
Zhang Ye was also thinking about this question.
Jiang Hanwei?
A martial arts star?
A martial arts practitioner?
Very quickly, he thought of a possibility. Then Zhang Ye went online to look up Jiang Hanwei's lineage. It was all written about on the Internet, so it wasn't a secret at all!
Jiang Hanwei was actually a disciple of the Huashan Sect and was the sixth disciple of Fan Wen. When he was eight years old, he studied martial arts under Fan Wen for three years. Then, due to some matters, he left his tutelage and went out on his own. He was no longer a disciple of the Huashan Sect. But after he became famous, he forked out quite a lot of money to rebuild the Huashan Sect's headquarters. It seemed like he was bent on returning to the Huashan Sect, but the Huashan Sect had not expressed their stance yet. It was probably because they did not want to take him in. Something might have happened back then, but it was unclear what exactly happened. However, it was said that Jiang Hanwei's current martial arts were probably even better than Fan Wen's!
A former disciple of the Huashan Sect?
Zhang Ye sneered!
So that's how it was!
So that was the root cause?
