The Goof Group.

This should be the coolest chat group that ever existed in the entertainment industry. Almost all of the big shot celebrities were in it, and any one of them could shake up the entertainment industry with just a stomp of their foot. This group was usually just a place for shooting the breeze, but if anyone encountered trouble, they could seek help from the group. Those who could help would definitely try their best as they were always looking out for one another. After all, who wouldn't have times of trouble themselves? These celebrities always seemed like they were doing well on the outside, but there were still times they were vulnerable and needed to band together.

"Does anyone have a solution?"

"Old Ning, you guys must control yourselves, you can't clash with them. Those people from the martial arts world are not to be trifled with. Every single one of them is very skilled."

"Who here can speak with the Lian Family?"

"Is there anyone else online?"

Ning Lan's social ties within the industry were very good. Whenever her friends approached her for a guest role as a supporting character, she would always agree without hesitation and help out wherever she could. So as she ran into today's problem, everyone was very concerned for her.

Reading this, Zhang Ye could no longer "play dead."

He sat up in bed and typed: "Are Beijing TV's people there yet?"

It was Zhang Ye?

The people in the chat group were taken aback by his appearance.

Everyone already knew about the conflict between Zhang Ye and Jiang Hanwei. But no one expected that the two of them would appear in the group chat at the same time.

Ning Lan immediately said: "Are you referring to the program team of King of Masked Singers? They're here too. They arrived shortly after us and got detained as well."

Zhang Ye frowned. "They were detained too?"

Ning Lan said: "The Lian Family Style's people probably thought that they were also part of our group."

Zhang Ye made a noise in understanding. "Then I'll make a trip there."

Ning Lan: "You're coming over right now?"

Zhang Ye: "I'll head over straight away!"

Chen Guang asked: "Zhang'er, why are you going over there?"

Xiaodong said in surprise: "You can help them out, Teacher Zhang?"

Zhang Ye said: "We'll see when I get there." Then he said to Ning Lan: "If that group of people tries to do anything to you guys, just mention my name!"

Ning Lan was stunned. "Mentioning your name will work?"

Zhang Ye said: "Probably."

Ning Lan: "OK, I'll wait for you. Thank you so much."

Zhang Yuanqi reappeared and asked Zhang Ye: "You can resolve things?"

Zhang Ye said: "More or less. I'm certain I can bring everyone and the equipment back safely."

In truth, no one understood how Zhang Ye could have any influence over Lian Jia Gou. Even for a martial artist like Jiang Hanwei, the Lian Family Style was not willing to give him any face at all! And you're talking about mentioning your name?

Xiaodong was still quite worried, so she sent Jiang Hanwei a private message.

Xiaodong: "Uncle Jiang, is there really no other way?"

There was a moment of silence from the other side.

Then Jiang Hanwei replied: "Didn't that Zhang guy say he was going?"

Xiaodong: "What use would it be even if Teacher Zhang goes? With that bad temper of his, what if he ends up fighting with them when he gets there? That would blow things up even more. All of those people know martial arts, and if they really beat up Teacher Zhang to a pulp, then…"

Jiang Hanwei said: "Beat him to a pulp? That would be so wonderful."

Xiaodong didn't know how to react. "Uncle Jiang."

Jiang Hanwei pondered for a moment. "Hur, the problem is that they'd have to be willing to act."

Xiaodong didn't understand. "Eh? What do you mean?"

Jiang Hanwei did not bother explaining. "Nothing."

At home.

Zhang Ye immediately rose out of bed and got dressed.

His mother asked, "You're up? Do you want breakfast?"

"I can't eat now." Zhang Ye said helplessly, "My coworkers ran into some trouble, so I have to go take care of it."

At this moment, a call from Beijing Television arrived.

It was Hou Ge. "Teacher Zhang, we ran into some trouble at Lian Jia Gou."

Zhang Ye grunted. "I heard about it."

"You've already heard about it?" Hou Ge was surprised.

Zhang Ye asked: "Is Brother Hu there too?"

Hou Ge said: "Yeah, all of us have been detained here."

Zhang Ye said: "Tell everyone to wait for me to get there."

Hu Fei had asked him yesterday to go with them to film the promotional video for the show, but when Zhang Ye heard that they were going to one of the martial sect's training halls, he turned him down. He didn't expect that he would still have to make a trip there in the end.

Zhang Ye went out, got in his car, and drove straight for Lian Jia Gou.

...

Later that morning.

10:30 AM.

Zhang Ye drove very fast at a high speed all the way and reached the location in no time at all. He got out of his car and asked for directions before striding off.

Before he even got there, he could hear bickering.

At the grounds.

A film crew and a program team were surrounded by a group of people. Ning Lan's film crew consisted of around 18 people, while there were less people from the Beijing Television team, numbering only around 12 people. Actually, the Lian Family Style's people who had surrounded them numbered between 20 and 30 people and were roughly equal in numbers to them. They were all wielding club-type weapons. But Ning Lan, Hu Fei, and the others did not risk leading everyone else to break through because they knew their opponents were all martial artists.

The Lian Family Style was absolutely not a small sect in the Chinese martial arts world. Their master had appeared on a Central TV science show several years ago, during which he performed his kung fu in the presence of an audience, and was recognized as a genuine martial arts master. Although their grounds and some of its facilities were made available for lease to the public in recent years to supplement their income, the Lian Family Style School was still the same old illustrious but reclusive sect of the Chinese martial arts world. Even if their opponents amounted to just ten people, Ning Lan and the others would still be unable to overpower them in a fight, much less force their way out!

A person on the film crew said, "Return our equipment to us!"

Furious, a Lian Family Style unarmed specialist said, "In your dreams!"

That person on the film crew fumed, "We've apologized to you guys already. We understand that we were in the wrong as we did not know about the history of the Heavenly Rock, so how can you guys handle things this way? Just what do you people want?"

Ning Lan tugged at that person on the film crew. "Director Wang, let's refrain from saying too much."

Director Wang said angrily, "But they're really taking this too far!"

The Lian Family Style disciples shouted, "We'll talk about this when our master gets here!"

One of the Lian Family Style disciples said, "Before our master gets here, no one is to leave!"

Hu Fei was also getting irked. "Do you people know how to act reasonably?"

Hou Ge said in frustration, "What does any of this have to do with us? Why are you surrounding us as well?"

The Beijing Television team had really gotten themselves embroiled in an unfortunate series of events today. They had only just arrived and bumped into the film crew that was filming a movie here. As some of them knew each other, they went over to greet the film crew and chatted happily for a while. After all, they were by and large from the same industry, and it was only polite to greet each other when they met. But who could have known that something would happen right at the next moment? Hu Fei, Xiao Lu, Dafei, and the others had all been surrounded from morning until now, deadlocked for the past few hours!

The police were also here.

Several of the local police officers were trying to smooth things over. "Forget about it and just let it slide, Master Chen. They've apologized to you all and even offered compensation. You can't keep them here forever, right? There has to be an end to all this."

There was an unarmed specialist surnamed Chen who practiced the Lian Family Style.

Master Chen seethed, "The Heavenly Rock was handed down by our Lian Family Style's ancestral founder. It's the symbol of our sect! It's just as important as our name! They should have just stuck to their filming. We leased the place to them, so we wouldn't have kicked up a fuss as long as they did not damage anything. Besides, we even fenced the area around the Heavenly Rock! There was also a warning sign in place! Yet they had to step on it! That's the same as stepping on our heads! Can we take that lying down? Huh?"

"Senior Bro, let's not wait for Master to get here!"

"Right, let's beat them up before talking!"

"This is so infuriating!"

"Beat them up!"

"Smash their equipment!"

The Lian Family Style disciples were whipped into a frenzy!

When the film crew heard that the disciples were going to smash the equipment, they got worried. "Don't you dare!"

The digital film was inside the cameras!

If they got smashed?

That would be a huge problem!

Meanwhile, the Beijing Television team was also having none of it as their equipment was also being confiscated!

Hu Fei said, "What are you people trying to do? What are you doing?"

Hou Ge and Hou Di each rushed to stand in front of a female colleague to protect them!

The police officers started to look uneasy. "Calm down, everyone, calm down! Don't fight! Let's talk about this without resorting to violence!"

The Lian Family Style's people said angrily:

"What's there to talk about!"

"There's nothing to say!"

They tightened their grips on their weapons!

When Ning Lan realized that things were going badly, and was getting out hand, she remembered Zhang Ye's words. She had no choice but to use this as a last resort. She immediately shouted, "Zhang Ye is my friend!"

Zhang Ye?

Why was Zhang Ye's name brought up?

The film crew was shocked.

The people from Beijing Television were also staring at her in shock!

However, they were made even more slack-jawed by what happened next. When the Lian Family Style disciples heard those two words—Zhang Ye—they looked shaken and were instantly silenced!

Huh?

What was going on?

Ning Lan also didn't expect for those two words to be so effective. She immediately pointed behind her. "These friends are from Beijing TV and are all Zhang Ye's coworkers. He'll be here shortly too!"

Some of the Lian Family Style disciples looked at each other.

Someone stuck their neck out suddenly and gritted their teeth. "So what if Zhang Ye is coming!?"

"It doesn't matter who comes!"

"Right!"

"Don't you people even think about leaving this place today!"

"Even if Zhang Ye comes here in person, he'd still have to…"

Ning Lan sighed.

In the end, it didn't work!

But the next second, a voice abruptly came from behind everyone.

"Even if I come here in person, I'd still have to what?"

Zhang Ye was here!

Ning Lan turned around and said, "Little Zhang!"

Xiao Lu said in surprise, "Teacher Zhang!"

When the Lian Family Style disciples saw him, they all looked like they had just seen a ghost!
