Chapter 751: From this day forward, I will no longer remain silent!Translator: Legge Editor: – –

This piece of news was too surprising but also very uplifting!

“Holy f**k!”

“Old Luo, you’re really awesome!”

“Old Luo, well done!”

“You’ve finally emerged again! You finally spoke up!”

“My eyes are tearing up. Back then, Central TV Department 1 really destroyed Old Luo’s career!”

“Sue them! We’ll all support you, Old Luo! Everyone knew who was in the right and who was in the wrong regarding what had happened at that time! Why…why did you only start speaking up now?!”

Luo Yiqiang replied on Weibo: “Thanks to those friends who have been supporting me all this time. I know that this petition is somewhat late, but it still arrived after all. Regardless of the verdict, I will definitely fight in this lawsuit against Central TV Department 1. This is because a poem kept ringing out in my ears this afternoon. It constantly appeared and I was unable to hide from it—Lived a hero. / Died—still the heroic spirit. / Even today Xiang Yu is remembered. / He who refused to return to Jiangdong! Thank you, Zhang Ye. You have created a good start for artists like us in the entertainment circle! From this day forward, I will no longer remain silent! Dear entertainment circle, I’m back!”

Old Luo’s fans all came surging over!

“Old Luo, we were waiting for you all this time!”

“Sue them! And then come back! Everyone really misses you!”

“I’m so excited! Old Luo, you’re finally coming back! Zhang Ye, I represent all of Old Luo’s fans to thank you! And @ZhangYesFanClub, if you guys need any help in the future, just say the word! If you have a war to fight in the future, count us in as well! We will definitely do our best! Without hesitation!”

Big Saber Bro represented Zhang Ye’s fan club and replied: “Thank you, my friends from a distant place. If you need any help, you can also tell us.” Then, she declared with an air of dominance: “Teacher Zhang Ye’s fans might not be good at many things, but we make up for that in numbers!”

Old Luo’s fans responded!

“Thank you, friend!”

“Old Luo will be fighting a lawsuit soon, so we could really do with your people’s advice and experience!”

“That’s right, we have to build on the momentum for Old Luo somehow!”

“Is there any experience you can impart to us, my friend?”

Big Saber Bro replied: “We don’t have any experience, we only scolded them! Continuously scolding them! Continuously scolding them for 24 hours! Scold them until they have nothing to say! Scold them until they are speechless!”

Old Luo’s fans: “…”

Zhang Ye’s fans were too overwhelming. In recent days, all the netizens saw for themselves how very awesome this fan club was. It was just like what the leader of Zhang Ye’s fan club, Big Saber Bro, had described. They had too many members such that it looked like the entire Weibo and Tieba netizens were all his followers. If there was someone who said something bad about Zhang Ye, they would counter back with hundreds of replies to scold the other party. Just the day before yesterday, there was an incident of someone who insulted Central TV Department 1 on Weibo with some vulgarities. Within an hour of that, Zhang Ye’s fans had forwarded it everywhere in crazy numbers and bumped the popularity of this post to the top 10 trending topics on Weibo’s main page! Only when Weibo’s staff chanced upon the scolding did they hurriedly delete the posts that they forwarded. From this incident alone, everyone came to know about the combat strength of Zhang Ye’s fan club. They were way too united. In peacetime, you might not see them around, but when something happened, they would all rush forward together!

Just when the countless netizens and industry insiders were shocked by this news, yet another ex-executive director of a program team at Central TV Department 1 who had gone into obscurity for a long time suddenly appeared!

Bai Fei announced on Weibo: “I have started to officially collect evidence and entrusted my lawyer to file a petition against Central TV Department 1 in the near future. Regarding the plagiarism case back then, I think it’s time they gave me an explanation! From this day forward, I will no longer remain silent!”

Following that, another ex-staff member of Central TV Department 1 who was also Bai Fei’s colleague posted: “I will be suing Central TV Department 1 together alongside Bai Fei. From this day forward, we will no longer remain silent!”

There came one!

Then came another two!

“Director Bai?”

“Director Bai has come forward too!”

“My god, everyone is starting to come out now!”

“How exciting! What a spectacular sight!”

“Central TV Department 1 has more than enough on their plates already!”

“No one will remain silent anymore!”

“Who says that there isn’t a winner in this lawsuit started by Zhang Ye? The winner was clearly Zhang Ye! He only paid the price of being unable to produce or host a program within the next year, but in exchange, he awakened the spiritless soul of the entertainment circle! He awakened everyone’s minds and passions! This is a war that started with Zhang Ye! This is a war that’s destined to enter into the annals of the entertainment circle!”

“This is too cool!”

“There are actually this many people responding to Zhang Ye!?”

“What I want to see now are the expressions on the faces of the Central TV Department 1’s leaders!”

“No need to ask! Their faces must have the most interesting expressions on them!”

Yes.

It was indeed most interesting.

At Central TV.

Jiang Naixiong, Jiang Yuan, and seven or eight other leaders of Central TV Department 1 were in a meeting that lasted from the afternoon until evening. They were discussing how to handle the court’s decision for them to pay the compensation and whether they should continue on to the appeal process. Then, just before the end of the meeting, the secretary rushed into the meeting room from outside without knocking, looking flustered!

“Boss!” the secretary huffed anxiously.

Jiang Yuan said with a straight face, “Don’t you know how to knock?” Sᴇaʀch* Thᴇ N0ᴠᴇFɪre.nᴇt website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of nøvels early and in the highest quality.

The secretary said loudly, “Something big has happened!”

Jiang Naixiong immediately asked, “What’s the matter? Say it!”

The secretary said, “Luo Yiqiang has sued Central TV to court! Then there’s also Bai Fei and his program planner. They have announced on the Internet that they plan to file a petition against us in the near future. They have even hired a lawyer!”

Jiang Yuan was deeply shocked. “What did you just say?!”

The secretary said exasperated, “It’s already making a splash in the news!”

Jiang Yuan’s cell phone had been turned off during the meeting. He immediately turned it on to make a call and find out more about the situation.

Jiang Naixiong’s face turned blue!

Several of the other leaders of Central TV Department 1 couldn’t help but curse and swear as well!

“That bunch of lunatics!”

“They’ve all gone mad!” They have all gone f**king mad!”

“Zhang Ye, you bastard! He was the one who started it! All of this!”

“Look at this now, everyone has come to sue us!”

“We shouldn’t have recruited Zhang Ye back then! I mentioned before that the guy was just like a ticking time bomb! Now look at it! Look! This is such a heavy price to pay for that!”

“That damned hooligan! He’s really too much!”

Some of the executives of Central TV Department 1 really hated Zhang Ye to the bone. But it was already useless to be saying or scolding him now!

Jiang Yuan did not say another word. He knew that at this moment the station heads must have already received the news as well, but he was still unsure how furious they would be. They had truly screwed up this time. It was initially just a small case regarding the late payment of salary, but who could have expected it to become such an earth-shattering mess! They had even drawn the fire to themselves now! They had to face another two lawsuits??

On the same night, the news headlines were published one after another!

The people felt heartened!

Other than Central TV Department 1, the media employees were enjoying this explosive feast of news. They were the busiest people tonight, as almost all of the societal and entertainment news reporters seemed to be working overtime!

“Central TV Department 1 plunges into a crisis of confidence!”

“The most recent trending activity—suing Central TV!”

“A flame has been ignited by Zhang Ye within the entertainment circle!”

“The artists’ will to safeguard their own rights has begun spreading rapidly!”

“Central TV Department 1 should do some self-reflection!”

“Central TV Department 1 has lost, but they did not lose because of their lawyer’s quality, nor did they lose because of public opinion. The reason that they lost was because of…their arrogance!”
