Chapter 1646: Zhang Ye becomes famous with a single battle!Translator: Legge Editor: Legge

Korea.

In the film industry.

“This is not good!”

“That hooligan from China is at it again!”

“What’s happening?”

“Didn’t Commando 2 get crowned as the champion of the global box office earnings yesterday?!”

“Huh?”

“Wolf Warrior 2 took its place!”

“Hai, I said that when Wilson used Zhang Ye to hype up his movie, it was best not to provoke that fellow since he’s not someone that you can push around so easily. Look at what has happened now.”

…

The UK.

Online.

“My God!”

“How did it turn out like this?”

“Yeah, how could this happen!”

“Is the film industry going to see a change soon?”

“Just who the hell is that Chinese Nobel Prize recipient, really!”

…

America.

Hollywood.

“40 million?”

“What in the fucking hell!”

“It must be in yuan, right? It has to be!”

“It’s in US dollars!”

“Commando 2 has been crushed!”

“Sh-Shouldn’t he have been stifled after we blocked his global release of the movie?”

“That was purely the Chinese market’s box office earnings!”

…

India.

“How did something like this happen!”

“Commando 2 has lost?”

“Wilson lost?”

“Hollywood lost?”

“What’s more, they actually lost to a Chinese director and movie too?”

“Motherfucker, what the hell is going on!”

…

Australia.

“This slap to the face is too ruthless!”

“Wilson has probably gone out of his mind!”

“This is a slap to the face of Hollywood by the Chinese!”

“The Chinese are too terrifying!”

“No, it’s that Chinese celebrity who’s the scary one!”

…

Japan went crazy!

America went crazy!

Europe went crazy!

On the day, every person in the world went crazy!

All of this had happened too suddenly and without any warning. At this moment, even the international entertainment news hadn’t reported on it. The entire world did not have time to react, and the media wasn’t even prepared. As such, everyone who saw the global box office rankings from yesterday was all shocked!

There was a very strange atmosphere in the international scene!

It was as though the people of the world had encountered a ghost!

…

Only China was different.

No one could fall asleep tonight.

Every household was filled with surprised shouts and exclamations!

In a home.

“Ahhhhhh!”

“Honey, what’s wrong?”

“Hubby! Stop sleeping! Wake up and see this!”

“What are you going on about so late at night?”

“Zhang Ye has won! He’s won!”

“Won? Against who?”

“He has totally crushed Wilson!”

“Hur hur, go wash up and sleep, you must be dreaming.”

“Dammit, I’m serious! Look at this, quick!”

“What?!”

…

At a bar.

Several Chinese movie directors were holding a late night meeting. Many of them had been woken up by calls to come here and were only just starting to find out about this big deal that happened in the film industry.

“Old Zhou, Old Zhou, just how—”

“We don’t know either, but the box office statistics can’t be wrong!”

“How did Zhang Ye do it?”

“No matter how he did it, this is still a milestone for China’s film industry!”

“Right, the reason why we called everyone out this time is to celebrate that. It’s very possible that the Chinese film industry is headed for good times from here on out. That kid Zhang Ye is amazing!”

“He’s more than amazing!”

“Yeah, he might as well soar to the Heavens with his opening day box office earnings of 260 million yuan!”

“This is the first time I’ve heard of anyone being able to step on a Hollywood movie like that. I’m still wondering if all of this is just a dream! Did that really happen?”

…

In a group chat.

The Celebrity Goof Group.

Many of the celebrities appeared in the group.

Ning Lan sent a shocked emote in the chat: “Something big has happened!”

Xiaodong: “@ZhangYe You better come right out and send me a red packet! Damn! You’re gonna be so popular, Teacher Zhang! You’ve shocked the entire world!”

Shu Han was stunned: “@ZhangYe So the word that you put out about challenging Hollywood, that was really fucking true? W-We thought you were just joking!”

Yao Jiancai also emerged: “I also thought it was just a joke!”

Chen Guang: “Old Yao, give out some red packets!”

Li Xiaoxian: “Old Yao, give out some red packets!”

Amy: “Teacher Yao, you’re going to get real popular this time too!”

Yao Jiancai sent a sweating emote: “What’s this about getting popular? The box office earnings have shocked me silly. All I can feel right now is my pounding heart. I still haven’t recovered from the shock!”

Amy: “Where’s Director Zhang? Director Zhang? Why aren’t you showing yourself?”

Dong Shanshan appeared: “I tried calling him earlier, but I wasn’t able to get through. He must be getting a ton of calls.”

Ning Lan: “I’m afraid to say, Zhang Ye must be the busiest person in the entire world right now! Today’s battle has made him famous around the world!”

…

Zhang Xia.

Huo Dongfang.

Xu Meilan.

Famous people in the industry.

Several Heavenly Kings and Queens.

The moguls of the movie industry.

Countless people were sending their congratulations!

This was a grand affair for the Chinese film industry!

It was a grand affair for China’s entertainment circle as well! Sᴇaʀch* Thᴇ NƟvelFɪre.ɴet website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of nøvels early and in the highest quality.

Every industry insider knew exactly what it meant for Wolf Warrior 2 to crush so many Hollywood movies to take the top spot on the day’s box office rankings!

The Chinese netizens were in an even greater frenzy:

“Ahhhh!”

“How cool! This is so fucking cool!”

“Number one on the global box office rankings for the day!”

“Zhang Ye has really done it!”

“When I saw the box office results, I actually cried. It hasn’t been easy at all! It really has not been easy for our domestic movies! How many years has it been! I can’t believe I got to see this day!”

“Who says that the Chinese market isn’t good enough? Ah? Who said it!”

“That idiotic Wilson really looks like an idiot now!”

“So you think that our Chinese market is negligible? How about now? Our domestic movie’s box office earnings in the domestic market are fucking greater than your gross global box office earnings!”

“I’m so excited that I don’t know what to say!”

“It’s too amazing!”

“Zhang Ye has shown the might of our country!”

“Wolf Warrior 2 is too heaven defying!”

“Face-smacking Zhang is indeed Face-smacking Zhang!”

“I knew he could do it! I just knew it!”

“Hahahahaha. When Zhang Ye says that he will smack their faces, he will definitely smack their faces. Never has he failed before—that’s the true mark of Zhang Ye!”

“What a good day to celebrate!”

“This is the most important day for our domestic movies!”

“Letting Face-smacking Zhang step up to the international scene was the best choice we made! He can really lead the Chinese and our Chinese works to take on the world! Unlike those male idols who keep circling the domestic market for money grabs after they’ve reached the top, Zhang Ye takes on any challenge. And he always wins!”

“I wasn’t Zhang Ye’s fan in the past, but I’m so excited today. After being woken up by my roommate in the middle of the night and seeing the global box office earnings, my blood is racing and I can’t go back to sleep! I’m so proud for Wolf Warrior 2! I’m so proud for Zhang Ye! I’m so proud that I’m Chinese!”

Cheers!

Excitement!

Screams!

Every person felt an exultant sense of pride!

They all knew that Zhang Ye did not have any intentions to make a movie initially. But for himself, and for the sake of the Chinese people, he wore the hat of director and took the role himself, all just to prove in practice to Wilson, Hollywood, and the entire world:

Whoever offends the mighty nation of China!

However! Distant! Shall! Be! Destroyed!
