Translator: Legge Editor: Legge

On the same day, the more the news spread, the more exaggerated it became!

“I heard it was because Zhang Ye took a show from Jiang Hanwei!”

“What? I heard that it was because Jiang Hanwei found Zhang Ye to be an eyesore and wanted to repress him a little!”

“I heard someone say that it was because Zhang Ye had offended too many people and did not know the ‘rules’ of the industry . After he reached his current status, he did not even pay his respects to Jiang Hanwei as one of the big brothers, so Jiang Hanwei decided to make things difficult for him!”

“Stop making things up! Those are all rumors!”

“Fuck, there’s too much information about this news now!”

“Does anyone know what is going on? Does anyone have any information on what is really happening?”

“I checked with a friend in the industry . He said that Jiang Hanwei really did say those words, but no one seems to know what kind of animosity they have!”

“Is this true?”

“It’s true and has been confirmed!”

“Can’t you see how the involved parties did not come out to refute the rumors?”

“Yeah, if the news were wrong, someone would have come out to clarify!”

“Those applicants have all gone quiet! No one dares to be Zhang Ye’s agent!”

The news was confirmed!

Zhang Ye’s and Jiang Hanwei’s fans fought even harder!

The entertainment industry had been quite peaceful recently, with no major events occurring . As such, this dispute made it to the headlines! Be it the common folk or the media, everyone was delighted to know that there was a feud between these celebrities . Their enthusiasm for it was even greater than for the news of a Heavenly Queen accepting a role on a new movie project and a Heavenly King releasing a new song . This was human nature . Everyone had a gossip side!

The reporters were also flocking over in full strength!

Zhang Ye could not be contacted!

Jiang Hanwei could not be contacted!

However, someone managed to contact Jiang Hanwei’s agent .

“Hello, I’m a reporter with the Beijing Times!”

“Oh, what’s the matter?”

“Can you tell me what grudges Teacher Jiang and Teacher Zhang have for each other?”

“No comment . “

“Wait, I—”

Du du, the call was cut off .

Then the cell phone of Jiang Hanwei’s agent was turned off .

But the more it became like this, the more excited the reporters became . Their keen sense of news reporting told them that there was certainly much more to the story . The way it was handled confirmed the authenticity of the news even further!

But as for Zhang Ye?

How would Zhang Ye handle this?

The reporters waited with bated breath!

The atmosphere in the entertainment industry became very tense!

An A-list celebrity publicly issuing a warning against another A-list celebrity!

This was a fight between the gods!

This had not been seen in many years!

Numerous people from the entertainment industry were also waiting to see how Zhang Ye would react . After all, Jiang Hanwei was very special, his status illustrious and prestigious!

Very soon, Zhang Ye made a response!

This response left the entire entertainment industry in a state of shock!

Zhang Ye had given a call to Yao Jiancai .

“What’s the matter, Little Zhang?” Yao Jiancai asked .

Zhang Ye got straight to the point . “Old Yao, you’ve been around the entertainment industry for many years, so you’re quite familiar with how it works . Help me spread these words to the industry!”

Yao Jiancai was stunned . “What do you want to say?”

Zhang Ye answered: “Just help me spread word of my response… . Say that I said, ‘What are you acting all high and mighty for!'”

Yao Jiancai was speechless . “What are you trying achieve!”

Zhang Ye said: “Just say that!”

“Are you sure?” Yao Jiancai asked nervously .

Zhang Ye nodded . “I’m very sure!”

Yao Jiancai was very familiar with this temper of his long-time crosstalk partner . “Alright then . “

Soon after, Zhang Ye’s words were spread throughout the entertainment industry!

Fang Weihong was at a loss for words!

Chen Guang was speechless!

Fan Wenli gasped!

The others in the industry were astounded!

“What are you acting all high and mighty for!”—No one had expected Zhang Ye to use this fierce a method to start the war with Jiang Hanwei! They were really going fight!

. . .

Elsewhere .

Jiang Hanwei’s house .

It was a villa . Jiang Hanwei was in the lounge discussing some fight choreography in a movie with two of the martial arts choreographers and a martial arts double on his team .

His agent, Wan Yi, walked over and whispered some words to him .

Jiang Hanwei belly laughed . “Great! Tell him to watch out!”

Wan Yi nodded .

“Brother Jiang, what’s the matter?” one of the martial arts choreographers asked .

That martial arts double blinked several times . “Is it about Zhang Ye?”

Jiang Hanwei mocked, “I’ve been in this business for over 20 years! But a rookie who has only been in the industry for 2 years dares to say such things to me?”

Wan Yi asked, “Brother Jiang, just what is going on between you and Zhang Ye?”

“Stop asking . ” Jiang Hanwei bluntly said, “This is a blood feud!”

Wan Yi nodded . “I understand . I’ll inform the industry and use my social ties to guarantee that Zhang Ye won’t find anyone as his agent! No one will want to work for him!”

Jiang Hanwei grunted in approval!

Suddenly, a veteran from the actors’ union called .

“Old Jiang . “

“Oh, it’s Old Bro Zhou . “

“I’m calling to sort things out . “

“Hur hur, then please stop talking . “

“Why are you picking a fight with Zhang Ye? Let it go, alright? I know Little Zhang’s agent, Little Fang, quite well . She asked me to help you two reconcile . You’re both big shot A-list celebrities, so don’t get so ugly . Otherwise, people will laugh at us . If you two continue with this fighting, both of you will suffer . “

“Old Bro Zhou, you don’t know the whole story . “

“Old Jiang . “

“No need to speak further . Ha, I’ll buy you a drink when next we meet!”

Following, another person called to mediate things . It was songstress Zhang Xia .

“Little Jiang, it’s been awhile, right?”

“Oh, Auntie Zhang . I think we haven’t met since that year’s Spring Festival Gala . “

“I know you and Little Zhang pretty well . Do things have to be like this? Give me some face and let it rest . “

“I really can’t do that . “

“No matter what, you can’t stop Little Zhang from getting an agent, right? Isn’t this unreasonable?”

“Please don’t continue . It’s not that I don’t want to give you any face, but I really can’t do that no matter who tries to mediate!”

Jiang Hanwei fended off all those calls for mediation!

Just like he said, it was useless for anyone to try to mediate!

Jiang Hanwei only wanted to make Zhang Ye looked bad! He had many things he couldn’t tell anyone because there were just too many things in the Chinese martial arts world that people did not know about . He had no way of saying it nor did he have the right to say it . Ultimately, he was just a former disciple of the Huashan Sect . As for why he dared to say such things to Zhang Ye, Jiang Hanwei naturally did not think that his own martial arts were better than Zhang Ye’s . In his opinion and based on rumors, the two of them would at most fight to a draw (in his own imagination), which was the best case scenario . Of course, as they had not encountered each other before, the actual events could turn out much worse . Who knew if Jiang Hanwei could even take ten attacks from Zhang Ye! But the problem now was that Jiang Hanwei did not plan to fight Zhang Ye in the ring . There was no need for that!

A duel?

A fight in the ring?

What day and age did they live in!

However, Jiang Hanwei was not uncompromising . From a certain perspective, he was not rigid at all . He could not interfere with the affairs of the Chinese martial arts world nor help out in any way, but this was not the Chinese martial arts world . This was the entertainment industry, and he was one of the few celebrities with the highest of reputations! So why was there a need to duel Zhang Ye? This was not the place to duel in the ring . Zhang Ye and he were both A-list celebrities, so they couldn’t possibly fight in the ring to decide the victor and make the person who lost admit defeat, right? This wasn’t some children’s game! This was a lawful society and the usual practices of the Chinese martial arts world were not really applicable here . Every profession had its own rules and regulations . In the entertainment industry, the fight depended more on one’s fame, reputation, aggressiveness, and savviness! Despite the fact that Zhang Ye had defeated all the large sects when their strongest were down, he would guarantee that the Zhang fellow would not get past him in the entertainment industry! He was confident that with just a word of his, Zhang Ye would be completely quashed by him . At the least, he could make Zhang Ye be unable to find an agent!

Your martial arts are great? You can fight? What’s the use of that!

You may be very good at fighting, but can your agent fight well too?

If I can’t beat you in a physical fight, Zhang Ye, then the dozens of brothers of my Jiang Hanwei Stunt Team will be more than enough to take care of your agent! Frankly, I will make your agent get into a small accident and get injured . Even if the police come, they would have nothing on me! Who would still dare to be your agent then? I will beat them whenever I see them! You think I’ve been involved in the entertainment industry for this long without anything to show for? Saying that I was acting all high and mighty with you? I’ll fucking act all high and mighty with you today then! I’ll declare my intentions clearly here!

What can you do about it?

. . .

Back in Beijing .

At Zhang Ye’s parents’ house .

Very quickly, Zhang Ye received word of Jiang Hanwei’s message!

“Just watch out?”

Zhang Ye was tickled by that . He knew that he could not beat me, so he spread the word to deal with my agent instead? Make everyone afraid of applying for the job? But Zhang Ye had to admit that even though Jiang Hanwei’s move was nefarious, it was actually very effective . Up until now, there was no more news from those agents recommended by Fang Weihong whom he had contacted earlier!

His mother was so angry that she scolded Jiang Hanwei the entire morning . Finally, she asked, “Son, is there any news regarding the agent position?”

“No . ” Zhang Ye shook his head .

His father frowned . “Not even a single applicant?”

Zhang Ye responded, “Not even one . “

His mother said angrily, “Why are they all so easily scared off? How can there not be any competition to become the agent of an A-list celebrity? There should at least be some people who are not afraid of trouble, right?”

His father sighed . “That Jiang Hanwei can be very arrogant in the industry . I heard that he’s a veteran whose code of brotherhood is very strong, and he has beaten up several people in the past . He is similar to Little Ye in that he is the type of person who will beat someone up if he says he will do so . The applicants for the agent position are only trying make a living, so they do not see the need to take such risks . Who isn’t afraid of getting beaten up anyway?”

His mother said angrily, “Does he have any regard for the law?”

His father said, “People like them have plenty of underhanded methods they can use!”

Suddenly, the doorbell rang!

His mother shouted to the outside, “Who is it?”

“Grandma, it’s me . ” It was Chenchen’s voice!

His mother, who was raging a moment ago, immediately perked up . “Yo, it’s Chenchen!”

Zhang Ye blinked!

Rao Aimin and Chenchen were here!
