I'm Really a Superstar
chapter-953

Afternoon.

Old Rao took Chenchen back home.

His mother immediately grumbled, "What are you trying to do?"

"Are you really going to let her take the risk?" His father heavily opposed his decision and criticized, "You're putting Little Rao right out in the open by making her your agent!"

Zhang Ye said, "Aiya, it will be fine."

His mother said, "What are you going to do if something bad happens?"

Zhang Ye said, "I can guarantee both of you that even if someone gets into trouble, she will be fine!"

His mother clicked her tongue and said, "What's with Little Rao? I told her that Jiang Hanwei is a martial artist and an expert one at that. Why didn't she listen!"

Ring, ring, ring!

A call came in!

Zhang Ye looked at the caller ID and saw that it was Wu Zeqing.

He immediately went back into his room to answer the call.

Zhang Ye laughed and said: "Hello, Old Wu. Haha."

Old Wu remarked: "Oh? In a good mood, are we?"

Zhang Ye replied: "Yeah, I just finalized something."

Old Wu gently said: "I just heard about your issue with Jiang Hanwei. What happened? Have you offended someone again?"

"I didn't offend him. Rather, he insisted on standing up for someone and tried to curry favor with them. I can't explain the problem in just a simple few words. I'll tell you in detail if there's a chance later." Zhang Ye had never hidden anything from Old Wu. There was no need to do so either. "I know why you're calling, and I was just about to call you as well. I can handle this problem myself, so please don't interfere. Your position is too high. If you get involved, it won't be fun anymore!"

Old Wu said: "Hur hur, what are you planning this time?"

Zhang Ye chuckled: "You'll find out soon enough."

"Alright then, I won't interfere," Old Wu agreed.

Zhang Ye smiled and said: "Just focus on your work. I'll deal with Jiang Hanwei personally this time!"

After hanging up, Zhang Ye was still in a very good mood because Rao Aimin had agreed to become his agent. After humming a ditty, he didn't feel satisfied, so he took out his cell phone and posted a very "attention-seeking" Weibo message!

The content of the Weibo post was very simple: The agent has been confirmed. Thanks for everyone's "concern"!

The word "concern" was even put into double quotation marks. It was obviously referring to the concern of a certain person!

When this Weibo post was posted, it caught many people off guard!

The netizens expressed their shock at this reveal.

"Ah?"

"He's found an agent already?"

"How'd he do it this fast?"

"Hahaha! Beautifully executed, Teacher Zhang!"

"Jiang Hanwei has just spread the word that he will beat up his agent and Zhang Ye has already found someone?"

"How face smacking!"

"Yeah, who was just saying that no one would apply for the position?"

"Who is it? How can they be so brave?"

"I don't know. Who's the agent?"

"They did not even feel threatened by Jiang Hanwei's words? Who is this divine agent?"

Before long, Zhang Ye's cell phone started ringing!

Fang Weihong said in surprise: "You've found someone already?"

Zhang Ye said: "That's right."

Fang Weihong asked: "Who is it?"

Zhang Ye laughed and said: "You wouldn't know even if I told you."

"Isn't it an agent from the recommendation list I gave to you?" Fang Weihong was extremely curious. She didn't understand how such an unpopular person like Zhang Ye could find an agent from somewhere else. Who had recommended the agent to him? Moreover, there was actually someone who paid no heed to the warnings and had gone against them under such circumstances?

Zhang Xia also gave him a call.

"Grandma Zhang."

"Who did you find?"

"You definitely won't know who it is, haha."

"I'm just afraid that you'll get them into trouble."

"Don't worry, everything will be fine."

"It's good that you found an agent. With your status, you really should let an agent handle things for you. Otherwise, how could you cope with so many things by yourself? How about this? I've known Little Jiang for many years, and I think he's gotten really out of hand this time. I'll help you in trying to talk him around again, so just leave it to me!"

"Grandma Zhang, I really appreciate your kindness, but there's no need to."

"Then how are you going to handle things?"

"I have my ways."

...

At present.

The entire entertainment industry was also wondering!

Who on earth was Zhang Ye's agent?

Even Jiang Hanwei was stunned when he heard the news!

At Jiang Hanwei's house.

He immediately called over his own agent!

Wan Yi said, "Brother Jiang."

Jiang Hanwei looked furious. "Find out who it is! Make sure you find out!"

"Yes!" Wan Yi said solemnly.

Infuriated, Jiang Hanwei swore, "Fuck! I want to see who has the courage to disregard my face! How dare they charge at me at this time? Are they tired of living? Do they really consider me, Old Jiang, a peaceful man? And consider my words bullshit? Search! Who it is, their name, which talent agencies they've worked at! Get me all that info!"

"Understood!" Wan Yi went off to get it done. He immediately made around eight phone calls.

Showing disrespect to Brother Jiang?

You're trying to die!

...

Meanwhile, many industry insiders were inquiring about this news!

Because of a single Weibo post by Zhang Ye, many people's curiosities were piqued!

"Hello, Old Wang!"

"Hey, what's up?"

"Do you know who Zhang Ye's agent is?"

"I don't know."

"Even you don't know anything?"

"No, I'm also confused over this announcement!"

...

"Hello, Old Chen. Did any of your agency's agents resign?"

"No! I've already asked them!"

"What about the others?"

"No news, nothing!"

"No one knows anything? How is that possible!"

"Who knows where Zhang Ye found this person!"

...

Many people used their connections, but couldn't discover anything!

Even Jiang Hanwei, with his influence in the entertainment industry, could not dig up any information!

There was no news!

Be it the well-known agents of the industry or the unknown rookies, there were no signs that any of them were going to be Zhang Ye's agent. Hence, the identity of this person made everyone wonder. It was as if said agent had appeared out of nowhere and suddenly popped into the picture! Everyone was caught by surprise!

Was it because they were exceptionally good at keeping a low profile?

Or was it because they were afraid of Jiang Hanwei, and therefore did not risk showing themselves?

But that couldn't be. Since that person had the courage to become Zhang Ye's agent, Jiang Hanwei would find out sooner or later. There was no point in keeping a low profile like this; rather, it was a sign of weakness, so it shouldn't be the case here. Furthermore, the industry itself was not that big and the people within would know very quickly when something happened. If you did not know? If he did not know? Then someone was bound to know something about it. But even so, there was not a single piece of news regarding this. This probably meant that the person was not from the talent agency business!

A lot of people were already forming their own judgment!

It must be a relative of Zhang Ye's!

His mother?

Or his father?

This was the only possible reason why the industry did not receive any news, and also why that person refused to give any face to Jiang Hanwei! This explained everything!

At a small gathering.

Several new celebrities were whispering.

"This move by Zhang Ye was in truth very beautifully done."

"Yeah, there are a few reasons he had a relative be his agent. First, he can retaliate against Jiang Hanwei. Second, if Zhang Ye's agent turns out to be his father or mother, then no matter what, Jiang Hanwei likely wouldn't go and beat up his parents. Unless there's a deep hatred between them, he wouldn't go to the extent of beating up his parents, right?"

"When you put it like that, it makes sense!"

"So Zhang Ye actually has a strategy!"

"The problem now has been pushed back into Jiang Hanwei's court!"

"This match is very exciting to watch. Let's see which of them can win the next game. Right now, the focus of the entire entertainment industry is upon this fight of theirs!"

If someone could think of this, then others would naturally come to a similar conclusion as well.

But when a lot of the people in the entertainment industry surmised this was the case and thought that Jiang Hanwei would be left in a difficult position, he made another declaration!

He didn't care who it was!

He would keep his word!

These two sentences were leaked by a very reputable director of the industry. That director was very close with Jiang Hanwei, so the credibility of it was almost absolute!

No one could have thought that Zhang Ye would be so stubborn!

And no one could have thought that Jiang Hanwei would be likewise!

At once, the atmosphere of the entire entertainment industry was frozen again!

"Holy shit!"

"They really aren't going to let this rest!"

"What are Zhang Ye and Jiang Hanwei trying to do?"

"Just what feud is there between the two of them?"

"They're both big shot A-list celebrities. Are they really going to fight to the death?"

"Even if Zhang Ye's relative is his agent, Jiang Hanwei will still beat them up?"

"They're locked in battle! Neither is willing to take a step back!"

With things getting out of hand, everyone in the entertainment industry knew about this incident. Everyone was now waiting to see how it would turn out!

It was at this moment that Zhang Ye received an invitation.

It was a call from the popular domestic idol group's team leader, Xiaodong!

Xiaodong immediately said when the call connected: "Zhang Ye, I've been trying to contact you since a while ago, but I never could get through to you. So you're back in Beijing? Perfect. Tomorrow's my birthday. You should come."

Zhang Ye laughed and said: "I don't think I should?"

Xiaodong asked: "Why not?"

Zhang Ye replied: "Don't you know how my social ties are? I don't really know many people, so why should I go?"

"I'll introduce you to them." Xiaodong said without explaining further, "No rejecting, you must come."

Zhang Ye considered it for a moment and thought that it didn't really matter to him anyway, so he said: "Fine."

Xiaodong was very happy to hear that. "Then it's settled. Oh right, I know about the situation between you and Uncle Jiang. Why did things turn out like this between the two of you? I don't care what happened, but I need to reconcile the two of you. My relationship with Uncle Jiang is extremely good. He even took me under his wing. What am I going to do if the two of you are fighting like this? Tomorrow, it'll be fine when I settle things for the two of you tomorrow! Don't you refuse my help! That's that then!"

Zhang Ye was just about to speak.

Du du du.

The call ended.

Zhang Ye shook his head helplessly. He knew that Xiaodong was just being nice. But the conflict between Jiang Hanwei and him was not going to be so easily resolved with just a few words.

On the same day, a copy of the invite list was released!

It was exposed by a small tabloid. No one knew where they got the guest list from!

Xiaodong's Birthday Banquet.

Time: Tomorrow.

Location: Yanqi Hotel.

Below was the list of attending guests. It was a long list comprising several dozen people who were all influential public figures in the entertainment industry. For example, there were the two other members of Xiaodong's idol group, a famous director, a famous screenwriter, several people from their music company, Xiaodong's girlfriends, and a few A-list celebrities like Huo Dongfang, Jiang Hanwei and…Zhang Ye!

When the guest list got out, it struck terror into the hearts of the industry personages!

What?

Jiang Hanwei?

Zhang Ye?

Both of them were going to be at Xiaodong's birthday celebration tomorrow?

What was the meaning of this? Wouldn't the two of them end up fighting?

On top of that, everyone in the industry knew that Jiang Hanwei's skills were all real martial arts. Everyone believed that if the two of them got into a real fight, Zhang Ye would definitely be the one getting beaten up!
