Chapter 1409: A deep sense of malice from the Chinese people!

Translator: Legge Editor: Legge

Sunday.

Shenzhen.

Kimura Kazuya and his team were enraged as well.

“Kim Jichan lost too!”

“It’s our turn to take him on now!”

“Let’s fight it out with Zhang Ye!”

“Right, I don’t believe he can still continue performing like that!”

“Doing that for three straight days? He can’t do it even if he’s made of steel!”

“This is our chance!”

“Teacher Kimura, it’s all up to you now!”

“It’s time for us to fight back!”

“That’s right. Park Jaesang and Kim Jichan have already exhausted all of Zhang Ye and Yao Jiancai’s stamina. As long as we can perform for a longer duration than them today, we’ll win!”

This was the last battle!

The media turned their attention.

The people turned their attention.

The industry insiders turned their attention.

Everyone was waiting for the outcome of the epic battle of the century between Zhang Ye and the three Japanese and Korean celebrities!

…

On the same night.

At the concert venue.

Kimura Kazuya was making his best preparations for the concert. Conserving his stamina and dragging out the time, all of that had been planned out for him by his team, with the show even including an interaction and singing segment with the fans. In this way, they could extend the duration of the show as much as possible and also save some effort on the singing portions.

One song.

Five songs.

Ten songs.

Kimura Kazuya was so tired that he almost collapsed from exhaustion.

By the time he started singing the twenty-fifth song, he was feeling sick from singing too much. His voice had also gone hoarse. However, when he checked his watch, he saw that it was only 11:00 PM. He went on to sing another five songs, even giving a speech and chatting with his fans in between, before finally managing to drag it all the way until 11:40 PM!

It went on for almost five hours!

Who had ever held a concert that lasted almost five hours?

No one!

No one had done something like that!

Once the concert was over and upon returning to the backstage, Kimura Kazuya laid down like he was paralyzed, too tired to even move.

“Quickly, get the oxygen!”

“Give Teacher Kimura some oxygen to inhale!”

“Teacher Kimura, we’ve succeeded!”

“That was great! We won’t have a problem this time!”

“It went on for nearly five hours. We’ve broken the record!”

“We’ve really gone all out this time, so the audience will definitely be able to feel our sincerity.”

After Kimura Kazuya recovered a little, a sense of satisfaction arose in his heart. How many years had it been since he put in this much effort after becoming famous? Now that he had gone all out for his concert, he didn’t believe that it wouldn’t touch the fans! How could he still not gain a foothold in China like this?

Kimura’s team was jubilant.

Everyone was clapping and applauding in celebration.

But at this moment, someone suddenly exclaimed!

“This is bad!”

“What’s the matter?”

“Zhang Ye, he—he—”

“What’s about him?”

Everyone ran over in panic.

Then Kimura Kazuya nearly spat out blood!

His team also nearly broke down!

…

On the other side of Shenzhen.

Zhang Ye’s crosstalk was actually still going on!

Yao Jiancai had already retired backstage to rest. Only Zhang Ye was holding down the fort. Old Yao was very old, so his stamina was not that good. Coupled with the three consecutive shows that he had given for the past three days, Old Yao was nearing his limit. By the time Zhang Ye returned for the 18th encore, Yao Jiancai had stopped.

Normally, the show should have ended by then.

But Zhang Ye stood onstage to give another three monologues.

Afterwards, when Yao Jiancai managed to recover a little, he went back onstage to partner with Zhang Ye for another two acts.

20 encores!

30 encores!

In the end, they finished it off with a performance of ” The Great Truth ¹ “!

They actually returned to the stage a total of 37 times for their encores!

The Shenzhen crosstalk stop had been dragged on all the way past midnight to 12:30 AM!

…

Online.

The viewers were full of praise.

Everyone was cheering.

“Heavens, 37 encores!”

“I’m shocked too!”

“He is too dedicated!”

“Zhang Ye really has a conscience for his viewers!”

“I’m convinced! He really gave it his all! This is what an artist should be like!”

“Motherfucker, I’m going to become a loyal fan of Zhang Ye’s from now on!”

“I went to the venue to watch the crosstalk. Teacher Zhang put so much effort into it! It was so awesome!”

“My stomach hurts from all that laughing!”

“All three of his crosstalks were different. There was no point in time that he took the audience for a fool!”

“It was really great! I’ve been so amused for the past three days!”

“Did you watch Kimura Kazuya’s concert?”

“I caught a little of it, but there was simply no comparison to Teacher Zhang’s performance!”

“His concert was lacking by far. Kimura started off singing pretty well, but it was obvious that he was stalling for time after that. His voice also began failing later on, and his singing got so bad! Looking at Teacher Zhang’s side, the entire show was filled with high-quality jokes and gags. There wasn’t even a hint of puffery! The length of the show also went on for nearly an hour longer than Kimura’s!”

“The VIP tickets cost 500,000 RMB? He should go to hell for that!”

“That 500,000 RMB price tag was probably just hyped up. Regardless, even at 3,500 RMB, the premium tickets were not worth the money! To think that he’s not embarrassed about it! Teacher Zhang’s premium seats only went for 588 RMB!”

Instantly, the scolding started again!

Kimura Kazuya had been swallowed whole by the scolding from all of China’s people!

…

Kimura Kazuya’s team.

Everyone was in tears!

“H-He did that on purpose!”

“He’s really taking it too far! Too far!”

“How did it end up like this!”

“That damned hooligan!”

“He’s doing this on purpose to get at us!”

“This person is too wicked. If he keeps messing around and taking stabs at people like this every time, how many foreign celebrities can make it in the Chinese market? There won’t be a chance to hold any concerts at all! He’s just going to keep causing trouble for whoever comes next! Who can possibly go up against him!”

“He’s too ruthless!”

“He’s making it so that none of us can enter the market!”

Be it Kim Jichan.

Park Jaesang.

Or Kimura Kazuya.

These three big shot Asian A-listers had all fallen victim to Zhang Ye!

At this moment, they could feel a deep sense of malice coming from the Chinese people!

…

Within the industry.

In the entertainment circle.

Everyone was smiling bitterly at what had happened.

“The outcome has been determined.”

“Yeah, it’s already over.”

“In the next two years, none of them should entertain thoughts of entering the Chinese market.”

“Zhang Ye is such a bastard. With his messing around, those three people’s reputations have all been ruined! And with the crosstalk tour being such a great success, the three consecutive shows put on by Zhang Ye has made him even more popular in China. With such momentum, who could possibly stop him? He is truly amazing!”

“I’m not worried about Zhang Ye getting banned in Japan and Korea. Instead, I’m worried for those Japanese and Korean celebrities. With that temper of Zhang Ye’s, he might really end up relentless in his fight against them. At that time, he might just chase away or foil every Japanese or Korean celebrity the moment they try to step into our country. Then who would dare to come here? The ones who have to be worried at that time will be those from Japan and Korea. Especially for Korea, whose entertainment industry has a relatively large proportion of the market. They can’t bear losing a market as large as China!”

“Surely Zhang Ye doesn’t have that much power, right? Do you really expect him to be able to fend off all of the Japanese and Korean celebrities by himself?”

“That’s difficult to say.”

“Yeah, aren’t the three celebrities already a good example of that!”

“When it comes to Zhang Ye, anything can happen.”

“Hai, he’s such an oddity of showbiz that appears once every 10,000 years. Anyone who gets targeted by him is going to be in for a lot of bad luck!”

…

At night.

The Chinese Celebrity Rankings Index was updated.

Yao Jiancai’s popularity surged!

Zhang Ye experienced a great boost in his popularity as well!

Although he was already at the top of the Chinese entertainment industry, the crosstalks helped him gain a lot more Chinese fans!
