1373 The news spreads back to China!

On the morning of the second day.

Back in China, people gradually caught wind of the news.

At Zhang Ye's Studio, everyone was coming in to work as usual.

"Morning."

"Morning, Director Ha."

"Brother Zuo, you're here already?"

"Good morning. Nothing happened during the night, right?"

"No, nothing. Ever since Director Zhang reached the summit, there have been fewer people scolding him these days."

"Eh, what's the matter? What's with this?"

"What is it, Little Wang?"

"Look, why has Director Zhang's popularity on the Asian Celebrity Rankings Index suddenly gone up?"

"It's very normal for it to rise by a little, isn't it?"

"It's not just by a little, it's risen by quite a bit!"

"What? That can't be."

"Yeah, isn't the charity auction going to happen tonight? Besides, Director Zhang's activity this time is only for him increase his exposure in Asia. He's only going to take part in the regional activity to let those who do not know him yet learn about him a little. We aren't exactly expecting him to gain much of a rise in popularity at all!"

"Let me have a look!"

"Damn, it really has risen!"

"What's with this? What happened?"

"Did Director Zhang kick up a fuss abroad again?"

They were all confused. They did not understand what had happened and quickly went to find out.

…

At a newspaper firm.

"What?"

"Are you serious?"

"Zhang Ye has done something to shock the foreigners in Korea?"

"At a heavy metal music festival?"

"What the heck! There was even an incident like that?"

"The Asian media outlets have already reported about it?"

"Hurry, hurry, hurry! Go and find out about the events!"

"Why would Zhang Ye participate in a heavy metal music festival!"

…

At Central TV.

"Such a thing happened?"

"What? Something this big happened last night?"

"Are there any sources?"

"Are there any sources from the music festival?"

"What do you mean by no?"

"Go and seek it out! Hurry!"

"You must get your hands on the video of last night's music festival!"

…

At Zhang Ye's parents' house.

In the neighborhood.

"Old Zhang!"

"Ai, Big Sis Sun."

"Your family's Little Ye is in the limelight again!"

"Ah? What happened?"

"Didn't you watch the news? He sang in Korea and shocked to the foreigners!"

"What did he sing?"

"I'm not sure either!"

…

Meanwhile.

The news was spreading all through China!

It wasn't because of the time zone difference, nor was there a blackout in the news. The key issue was that the Chinese media was not paying any attention to the International Heavy Metal Music Festival. After all, everyone knew that China's heavy metal bands did not have much of a status in the international scene. It could even be said that they had no status at all, and that would not be putting it too harshly. They did not even have a heavy metal music style to call their own. Over time, the media stopped paying attention to it. This was just like how the Westerners did not really pay attention to table tennis. As they were not good at the sport and always lost whenever they played, who would want to concern themselves over that?

As such, this news arrived late to China!

That was why the Chinese were the last ones to find out!

After learning about the events that happened during last night's music festival, countless people became really curious. Simultaneously, they found it hard to believe. Just what songs did Zhang Ye sing? What songs did he perform? From the news in the Asian media, they found out that Zhang Ye had actually led Spring Garden onstage and outperformed all of the other heavy metal bands from the other countries? He had dominated the chance to sing the encore finale? And became the most popular band that the attendees wanted to watch at last night's music festival?

Was this some kind of tall tale?

Was this some kind of nonsense?

When did China's heavy metal scene reach that level?

What was going on!

Clips?

Sources?

A live audio recording?

They still didn't know if they could get their hands on those since it happened in another country. If it had been in China, that would not have been a problem at all. One of China's greatest strengths lay in the acquisition of pirated resources. It led all of the other countries in the world, and Chinese netizens were feared for their ability and awareness of where to look for such resources.

Very soon, they were found by those extremely resourceful citizens!

In fact, there was even an HD video of the entire International Heavy Metal Music Festival!

Countless people in China started watching it out of curiosity. In the end, they were all shocked by what took place in the arena!

…

On Weibo.

A lot of metalheads were in an uproar.

"Oh my God!"

"That was godly! Zhang Ye sang it in such a godly way!"

"That was truly scary!"

"I'm getting the goosebumps!"

"That Zhang Ye fellow can even sing heavy metal?"

"And it was in Chinese too! Heavens! Tears are streaming down my face!"

"It's in Chinese! It's really a heavy metal song in Chinese!"

"We finally have our very own metal! Ahhhhhh!"

"How exciting! This feeling is indescribable!"

"'Dreaming of the Tang Dynasty'?"

"Fuck! How can it be so stunning!"

"Shouldn't it be Old Chen and Zhao Wuliu going onstage to perform? I heard about this music festival, but I don't remember that Zhang Ye was invited for it? So why did he perform? And there's even Xiaodong and the others too?"

"I heard from one of the Chinese students studying over there. There was a Korean band who resorted to dirty tricks and sang the song that Zhao Wuliu was slated to perform. Old Zhao only had one song prepared, so he didn't get to sing it when the time came. It was Zhang Ye who led Xiaodong, Amy, and Li Xiaoxian to save the day. Who could have thought that by going onstage, they would end up shocking everyone!"

"That was so impressive!"

"Damn, I'm fucking impressed as well!"

"Regarding Zhang Ye, a lot of people are still scolding, criticizing, and doubting him. He has been attacked by a lot of people these few years, yet why can he still get to the top of the entertainment circle by making it into the S-list step by step? Why is it that even after scolding him, everyone still loves him to death? Because in these crucial moments, people still have to fucking depend on him. You have no choice but to be impressed!"

"Zhang Ye is on fire again!"

"This fellow is going to be on fire all across Asia this time!"

"Was it really that good? I don't really enjoy it."

"Previous poster, go listen to it a few more times. It's really good!"

"Yeah, these two songs signal the rise of China's heavy metal scene. They carry tremendous meaning to them!"

"Face-smacking Zhang has returned!"

"He's gone and slapped the faces of those in Asia!"

"Hahahahahaha! How satisfying! It feels so good!"

"I just like this grumpy temper of Zhang Ye's!"

"That's right, pfft! He always ends up smacking the faces of others out of the blue!"

Quite a few people also felt that the songs were average, because not everyone was able to accept metal and rock music. But whatever everyone's evaluation of them, no matter what the disagreements were, they all loved to hear about how Zhang Ye had shocked the foreigners with his performance on the Asian front!

How uplifting!

How vaunted!

He's shown the might of our country!

…

At Zhang Xia's house.

"Mom, have you watched the news yet?"

"Hur hur, I did."

"Teacher Zhang is really capable."

"Well, he just can't sit idle for longer than a moment."

…

At the Princess of Love Songs, Xue Kaiqi's home.

"Sister Xue, have you heard them yet?"

"Yes."

"How were they?"

"Those songs are what heavy metal should sound like!"

…

At musician Huang Cheng's office studio.

"Teacher Huang, what do you think?"

"Zhang Ye is really good. Compared to our country, there are more people in Asia who listen to heavy metal, especially in Japan and Korea. The acceptance level there is much higher and more professional as well. If even they were so shocked by Zhang Ye's songs, then it clearly states his abilities. There really is no one out there who can touch him!"

"I like these two songs as well! I always get goosebumps each time I listen to them!"

…

A rock band in China.

"These are really the stepping stones of our country's heavy metal scene!"

"It's so awesome!"

"All of us have Zhang Ye to thank for that!"

…

Among the people.

In the media.

Within the industry.

In the rock scene.

Across Asia.

There was only praise!
