The next day.

The effects of the event caused a chain reaction.

The Japanese and Korean celebrities with plans of holding a concert within the year in China started to receive calls from their working partners over here.

“We can’t hold it anymore?”

“Yes, we’re sorry about that.”

“But we settled the talks beforehand, so why can’t we hold it anymore?”

“The people over here are now more resistant to the idea of attending such concerts. There’s too much risk now.”

“What risks could there possibly be?”

“The three concerts that were held recently all failed.”

“But we already settled the details of this matter last year. No, we definitely have to hold the concert as scheduled!”

“Then can you lower the ticket prices?”

“Lower it to how much?”

“Uh, the lowest tier tickets should be priced at 300 RMB, while the highest tier ones should go for less than 1,000 RMB.”

“How is that possible! It won’t even cover the costs!”

“Then we can only wait for the latter half of the year before deciding on how we should proceed. We have to wait for this matter to blow over first.”

One concert.

Two concerts.

Three concerts.

All of the scheduled concerts taking place in China within the next half a year were canceled because the Chinese organizers could not afford to take the risk! Zhang Ye’s move had a cascading effect. The other parties were three of the top Asian celebrities around, yet they had been stopped at the door by Zhang Ye alone. The reviews of the three concerts were appalling, and he even influenced a majority of the people to start boycotting high ticket prices. At a time like this, who would dare to risk holding another concert for a Japanese or Korean celebrity? It would be a small matter if they only lost some money on it. But the worst thing that could happen would be to get themselves into an endless source of trouble!

Unless the ticket prices were lowered.

However, the standard of what was considered expensive was no longer the same as before.

600 RMB?

800 RMB?

All of these used to be considered cheap for ticket prices!

But with Zhang Ye leading the way, the people were now even finding that to be too high!

They would only consider 300 to 500 RMB to be an appropriate price. But how could those Japanese and Koreans possibly lower it to such a level?

Zhang Ye was fine with not making any money, but that wasn’t the case for them! Zhang Ye did not require much effort to promote himself, but they couldn’t! Tickets priced at 300 to 500 RMB? They would definitely have to take a big loss in that case! Surely you couldn’t ask them to take a loss just to hold a concert, could you? Who does business in such a way?

As a result, all the Japanese and Korean celebrities who had plans for a concert this year were implicated by the matter.

When the members of the Japanese and Korean entertainment industries heard about the news, they scolded Zhang Ye thoroughly. Everyone knew that this person was the main culprit behind all of this. This new standard in the ticket pricing was all because of him!

Ticket prices of 300 to 500 RMB?

A performance duration of 5 to 6 hours?

Who the fuck can do that!

Do you think that everyone else is made of steel like you?!

You’re basically forcing everyone into a corner! You’re not giving them any chance at all!

Soon, the news spread throughout Asia.

“China temporarily closes its doors to foreign-held concerts!”

“Park Jaesang and Kim Jichan receive the cold shoulder in China!”

“The Chinese people boycott high ticket prices!”

“Zhang Ye makes a move to stop the Japanese and Korean celebrities!”

“Many stars from Japan and Korea affected as plans for 13 concerts in China get canceled!”

“The Japanese and Korean celebrities suffer heavy losses!”

Originally, the Japanese and Korean sides had issued a “restriction order” against Zhang Ye, and the media would basically not report about any news related to him. But this time, the matter had blown up with a widespread effect. It involved almost all of their singers’ plans to make money from the Chinese market, so the Japanese and Korean media couldn’t not make a mention of it. With this report, the Japanese and Korean people finally found out about what had happened over in China during the past few days!

Thus, Zhang Ye’s name once again spread throughout Asia in the form of the news!

His infamy and notoriety were once again deeply felt by the people of Asia!

The Japanese netizens burst into an uproar!

“What?”

“He’s purposely making trouble!”

“It’s Zhang Ye again! It’s always him!”

“He really dares to challenge us?”

“Even Kimura has been driven off by him?”

“Kimura is a leading name in the rock scene of Asia! How could he possibly get chased back home by someone who does crosstalk?”

“He’s obviously targeting our people on purpose!”

“Dammit! This is too infuriating!”

The Korean netizens were having none of it either.

“Even Park Jaesang can’t beat him?”

“How is that possible!”

“Kim Jichan lost as well? Oh my God!”

“What kinds of methods did that Zhang guy resort to? How could he have foiled the Japanese and Korean singers’ concerts in China? Is he a jinx or something?”

“Fuck, this person is too infuriating!”

“It really makes you gnash your teeth in anger!”

“The three Asian A-list celebrities combined couldn’t even fend off Zhang Ye’s tricks in China?”

“Is he superhuman or something? How can he be this fearsome!”

“We must definitely ban him! Completely suppress him!”

“Right! Make his name disappear entirely from the Asian Celebrity Rankings forever!”

Zhang Ye was on “fire” again!

Countless people in Asia were cursing and swearing at Zhang Ye for the entire day!

They had really never come across such a person in their lives!

Furthermore, the Asian Red Cross Society arrived to add more fuel to fire. It might have just been a coincidence, or it could have been intentional. They were already angry over how Zhang Ye, who was their Asian philanthropic ambassador, was banned by the Japanese and Korean authorities. Since the morning, a wave of charity advertisements began showing in concentrated numbers in the Japanese and Korean markets. Every one of the PSAs was created by Zhang Ye and had scenes of him within them!

There was the one for AIDS!

The one for leukemia!

The one for quitting smoking!

The one for alcoholism!

One after another, they kept broadcasting like it didn’t cost any money to show them!

Zhang Ye’s face was all over the television screens!

As long as there were places with PSAs, there would be Zhang Ye!

These were the regular monthly ad placements and advertising spots allocated to the Asian Charity Association, and they were free to schedule them as they wished. It was coordinated between the world’s charity organizations and the governments beforehand, so it was all done according to an international standard. Japan and Korea had implemented the strictest restrictions on Zhang Ye, but they could not interfere in the matters of the charities and the PSAs. As a result, it led to this wondrous scene being created. A Chinese celebrity who was hated by so many people to the point of gnashing their teeth was now appearing over and over again before their eyes!

The Japanese and Korean citizens were nearly driven crazy!

“Holy fuck!”

“Why is he all over the place!”

“Didn’t they already show this ad earlier?”

“Your sister!”

“He’s just like a lingering spirit!”

“Why are they showing so many PSAs today!”

With that, their scolding of Zhang Ye got even louder!

Over the course of the day, a lot of people from the Japanese and Korean entertainment circle, the media, and the public were finally getting tired of scolding. Their throats had all gone hoarse from doing so. It was at this moment that the most dramatic event happened!

The Chinese popularity that Zhang Ye had gained from his crosstalks, coupled with the large amount of news coverage by the Japanese and Korean media, as well as the numerous PSAs put out by the Asian Charity Association in Japan and Korea, and not forgetting the entire day of scolding from the Japanese and Korean public!

With so much attention!

With so much exposure!

With so much activity!

When the clock struck midnight, the Asian Celebrity Rankings Index was updated!

Everyone was dumbfounded as they discovered that Zhang Ye had advanced by another spot in the Asian rankings. He was now officially a big name who ranked in the middle region of the Asian A-list rankings!

The Japanese public: “Damn!”

The Korean public: “Damn!”

The Chinese public: “Damn!”

What is with this!

Just what is with this!

Why is this guy getting more popular the more he gets scolded?!

It can even be done like that?!
