Chapter 1454
…
Shanghai .
The team of a Japanese singer .
"Zhang Ye came back?"
"Damn, why does he have to choose this time of all times!"
"Then about our concert?"
"Why don't we wait a little before holding it?"
…
Guangzhou .
The team of a Korean celebrity .
"This—"
"Everyone, be very careful . "
"Yeah, let's keep a low profile over the next few days . "
"Right, we better stay far away from this hooligan . "
…
On Weibo .
A lot of people started analyzing and discussing this news .
"Zhang Ye's restriction order hasn't been lifted yet?"
"Not yet . The Japanese and Korean authorities don't seem to have any plans of doing so either . "
"I thought that Teacher Zhang would only come back after the restriction order got lifted . "
"Yeah, the situation he's in right now is a little complicated . "
"Fighting might bring him some popularity . But if he wants to use that to get to the top of Asia, he'll still have a long way to go . "
"He deserves it for taking such a long break . He was away for a few months, so all the food is cold . Didn't some news outlets report that Zhang Ye was preparing to make a push into the Asian S-list before the end of the year? Which month are we in now? If he keeps going on such long breaks, he won't even get there by next year!"
"Face-smacking Zhang always manages to stir up some trouble whenever he goes on a break . But who'd have thought that he didn't do so this time? Did that fellow really take a proper break this time? That can't be!"
"I find it unusual too . "
"Lord Zhang, quickly show us your power!"
"Yeah, we're pinning our hopes on you to take down another Asian S-list spot for China . You're the only person who is closest to one right now . "
"Without getting the restriction order rescinded, don't even think that Zhang Ye will ascend to the top . He's totally incapable of penetrating into the Japanese and Korean markets . "
"Pfft, did you guys really think that he could achieve that?"
"It's already a miracle that his popularity didn't drop . "
"Let's observe and see what actions Teacher Zhang will take . "
"Haha, I'm also waiting for it . "
"You guys can wait all you want, but I'm off to watch my animation . "
"Has One Piece been released?"
"The latest episode just came out . "
"Wow, I'll go and watch it as well!"
"Same here . Has the new chapter of Detective Conan's comic been published yet?"
"Not yet . "
The people were waiting .
The media was waiting .
The industry was waiting .
Countless people across Asia were all waiting to see what actions Zhang Ye and his studio would take .
And Zhang Ye could indeed live up to those nicknames of his . He did not disappoint and made an earth-shattering move on the very first day of his return . This move was not only unexpected by the people, the media, and the industry, even the staff of Zhang Ye's Studio were caught unawares by it!
…
Noon .
In the private room of a restaurant .
Zhang Ye was treating everyone today, and the entire studio was present .
"Come . "
"Cheers!"
"Everyone, let's toast . "
"Cheers!"
They ate and drank .
All of a sudden, Ha Qiqi said with a light smile, "Oh yes, Director Zhang . Detective Conan's new chapters are due tomorrow . Have you sent in the manuscript yet?"
Zhang Ye was taken aback . "What manuscript?"
Ha Qiqi was also startled . "The comic manuscript for Detective Conan of course . "
Little Wang exclaimed, "Don't tell us you haven't finished drawing it yet?"
Little Zhou was getting anxious . "Aiyo, then what should we do? The manuscript is due tomorrow . Director Zhang, why don't we stop eating so that you can go back quickly and rush out the drawings . Let's not delay the proper business . "
Zhang Ye was stunned . "Why would I draw it?"
Zhang Zuo was dumbfounded . "Then how are we going to submit the manuscript? The other side is already rushing us . "
Zhang Ye said, "Submit the manuscript? Why would you still submit the manuscript?"
These three answers of his had dumbfounded everyone .
Little Sun said horrified, "W-What do you mean by that?"
Zhang Ye looked at everyone . "Heh, I thought that you guys understood what I meant . What is our purpose in doing all of what we did this time? It's to take the initiative and attack! To get behind enemy lines!"
Ha Qiqi said in a stunned manner, "Yeah, we understood that . We have successfully broken into the Japanese market and even spread that out towards the whole of Asia . So what's left is to draw the comics well and accumulate our popularity before waiting to announce that you're actually the author behind them on the day the restriction order gets lifted . Or if we're afraid that something might change midway, we can also wait until the comics have ended to announce it . It's all the same anyway, isn't it?"
Zhang Ye shot back, "I can only draw three chapters a day if I have nothing to do all day . Now that I've returned to work, where would I find time to draw them every day? Be it One Piece, Naruto, or Detective Conan, how could any of them be completed without taking several years to a decade at least?"
Little Wang was stupefied . "That's right, so what do we do?"
Zhang Ye rolled his eyes . "When did I say that I was going to finish drawing them?"
Pfft! Rice spewed out of Little Zhou's mouth!
