I'm Really a Superstar

Chapter 1419: Lee Anson gets sent packing as well!

Translator: Legge Editor: Legge

The next day.

On Monday morning, Zhang Ye went to work.

“Good morning, Director Zhang!”

“You were on fire again yesterday.”

“Yeah, everyone in the nation is talking about you!”

“The headlines, the front page, you’re on all of them!”

“Lee Anson is out of luck this time.”

“That car brand is even unluckier. They’ve descended into a brand crisis this time!”

“Right, everyone’s just waiting to see the outcome.”

“Director Zhang, how did you and Big Sis Rao shatter the glass?”

“Yeah, tell us how you did it. There’s a lot of people online guessing as well.”

The atmosphere in the studio was very cheerful. Every employee who worked here liked this atmosphere very much and felt a special sense of belonging to the place. Very few employees would resign or jump to a job elsewhere, and there was a reason for that! In any other celebrity’s studio or entertainment agency, where would they get the chance to witness such entertainment and amusement happening before them every other day? The salary was good, and the work was simple. If they were to mention to anyone outside that they were an employee at Zhang Ye’s Studio, their industry peers and friends would double take.

Zhang Ye chatted with them for quite a while.

Then Ha Qiqi came over. “Director Zhang.”

Zhang Ye looked at her and said with a smile, “Old Ha, what’s the matter?”

Ha Qiqi was nervous. “Um, there’s something.”

Zhang Ye asked, “What is it? Spit it out.”

Ha Qiqi hesitated for a while, not knowing whether to laugh or cry. She said, “When I arrived at work this morning and parked my car downstairs, Little Yang was already there waiting for me. She didn’t say anything, just stared at my car, the bulletproof car that you gave to Old Zuo and me. The way she looked at it made my hair curl. I was really terrified.”

Zhang Ye said, “That happened?”

Zhang Zuo had also just arrived at work. He was looking somewhat flustered.

Zhang Ye looked at him. “What’s the matter, Old Zuo?”

“Aiyo, Director Zhang, I was looking for you.” Zhang Zuo said in a terrified manner, “I was so scared just now. I just parked my car downstairs and happened to receive a call, so I answered it in the car. Five minutes into the call, a silhouette appeared outside tapping on my window and touching it. I thought that someone was trying to steal the car, but the moment I stepped out of the car, I saw Little Yang. I asked her what she was doing, but she didn’t say anything at all. It was as though she was possessed!”

Zhang Ye was speechless.

This junior sister of his!

She was too troublesome!

Zhang Ye suddenly said, “OK, I know what to do. I’ll criticize her.”

He immediately called Yang Shu and asked her to come upstairs. “What were you doing downstairs?”

Yang Shu pouted. “Nothing.”

Zhang Ye said with a straight face, “Don’t keep eyeing and circling Old Ha and Old Zuo’s cars like that. You’ll scare them.”

Yang Shu nodded.

Zhang Ye said, “Can you keep that in mind?”

Yang Shu said, “I heard you, Senior Bro.”

“Alright then, that’s the right attitude.” Only then did Zhang Ye break into a smile.

When Yang Shu went off, Zhang Ye had Ha Qiqi and Zhang Zuo come over. “OK, it’s done. I’ve spoken to Little Yang, so you don’t have to worry anymore. My words still hold some weight with her.”

Ha Qiqi smiled and said, “I was really afraid that she would smash my car.”

Zhang Ye laughed out loud. “She won’t. Little Yang might be a little rash, but—”

As he was speaking, a loud crash came from downstairs. It sounded like someone had punched something. After that, a car alarm went off!

This was a sound that everyone was very familiar with. It was Zhang Ye’s BMW X5’s alarm!

Zhang Ye’s face changed immediately and he quickly opened the window!

Everyone also looked out of the window in astonishment!

They saw Yang Shu holding her fist in pain as she stood beside the BMW.

Zhang Ye roared, “Yang Shu! Get up here right now!”

Two minutes later, Yang Shu was upstairs.

Zhang Ye pelted her with scolding. “Are you trying to drive me to my grave?! Didn’t I tell you to stay away from Old Ha and Old Zuo’s cars?!”

Yang Shu said calmly, “I didn’t touch their cars.”

Zhang Ye nearly vomited blood. “You’re not supposed to touch my car either!”

Everyone was doubling over in laughter!

Director Zhang’s BMW was also a bulletproof car!

Yang Shu muttered, “I was just trying out something.”

Zhang Ye said, “Trying out what! I pay for your meals, I gave you a place to stay, and you still smashed my car? Do you have a death wish?! Why didn’t you go and smash someone else’s car?”

Yang Shu said, “I’d have to compensate them if I smashed their cars.”

Zhang Ye nearly fainted from anger. “So it wouldn’t cost anything if you smashed my car?”

This junior sis of his that he didn’t ask for, why didn’t she have a lick of common sense?!

Since Zhang Ye had nothing to do, he continued scolding Yang Shu for the entire morning and even punished her by making her do the horse stance in the office. In the end, someone went to tell Rao Aimin about it and she couldn’t stand to watch it any longer, so she came over and “rescued” her. Otherwise, who knew how long Zhang Ye would have punished her for.

…

In the outside world.

The matter finally reached a conclusion!

And this outcome ignited yet another huge ruckus!

The SARFT got involved!

The AQSIQ ¹ got involved!

The China Consumers Association ² got involved!

The various organizations opened a full investigation to take action against the Korean car brand for their quality problems, false advertising, false marketing, and a series of other issues!

That afternoon.

The television commercials.

The bus stop ads.

The subway ads.

All of Lee Anson’s endorsement s had been halted and taken down!

At this point, Lee Anson had only returned to the Chinese market via the channel for two days before he got sent packing to where he came from by Zhang Ye. Furthermore, due to the car brand’s issues, Lee Anson’s image was also implicated. With this slap by Zhang Ye, it was estimated that Lee Anson would not be able to return to the Chinese market again within the next few years!

…

At the car brand’s company.

“Fuck!”

“The Chinese market is too shady!”

“This place is way too hostile!”

“A conspiracy, this is all a fucking conspiracy!”

…

Lee Anson’s team.

“Did they really take it down?”

“How did it turn out like this?”

“How ruthless! This Zhang Ye is too ruthless!”

“Are we really unable to get into the Chinese market now?”

“I’m so angry that I could cry! How can there be a bastard like him around!”

…

On Weibo.

The Chinese netizens were delighted.

“How satisfying!”

“This car brand cheated our Chinese consumers in the past!”

“Right. Did they think that we wouldn’t know who they are by taking on a new identity?”

“Lee Anson is so unlucky!”

“Since he dared to hit a Chinese fan back then, he should’ve been mentally prepared that he would get chased away!”

“This is too face smacking!”

“Yeah, the ads had only rolled out for two days, but it got taken down by Face-smacking Zhang almost immediately!”

…

Very soon, the news also spread to Japan and Korea.

The Korean media suddenly blew up with a lot of scolding and cursing!

“A Korean brand gets blocked in China!”

“Zhang Ye stirs up trouble yet again!”

“Zhang Ye smashes a bulletproof car with his bare hands?”

“Zhang Ye: An inexorable hooligan!”

When the Korean and Japanese celebrities saw Lee Anson’s s rolling out in China with impunity, they all had the urge to enter the Chinese market again. But when the news came out, they all gasped as though a bucket of ice water had been poured on their heads!

Zhang Ye!

It’s Zhang Ye again!

Why is he always picking so many fights!

Why is he always able to stir up trouble!

Park Jaesang had been sent packing!

Kim Jichan had been sent packing!

Kimura Kazuya had been sent packing!

And now, Lee Anson has also been sent packing!

Was there anything left to play for in this case?

And what made the Japanese and Koreans even more furious that night was when the Asian Celebrity Rankings Index got updated: Zhang Ye’s Asian popularity was still steadily increasing!
