I am Really a Superstar

At Zhang Ye\'s parents\' house.

His parents were watching the news in high spirits.

"It\'s been revealed!"

"They\'re showing the surveillance footage!"

"Eh, doesn\'t this person\'s back look a little familiar?"

"Damn, isn\'t that Little Ye!"

His parents were stunned!

In the Olympic Village.

Many of the athletes and coaches were watching the live broadcast as well.

"Beautiful!"

"That was such a godly trip!"

"Ah!"

"Zhang Ye!"

"Fuck, it\'s Zhang Ye!"

All over the country, scenes of people getting dumbfounded were playing out. When they saw that figure of a person and Zhang Ye\'s face, when they saw that malicious leg stick out, everyone wore a look of shock at first before it turned to one of amusement. Everyone realized that they were not surprised at all. The person who did it was Zhang Ye? That was perfectly within expectations for him. Zhang Ye had more than enough past cases when it came to such disreputable behavior. He had always been a person whom everyone hated and loved at the same time!

Weibo exploded once again!

But this time, the netizens were all one-sidedly giving their Likes to Zhang Ye!

"Aiyo, what the heck!"

"It\'s Teacher Zhang!"

"Ahhh! It\'s Zhang Ye!"

"This is cracking me up!"

"I was wondering who had the balls to attack the referees in an Olympic stadium!"

"Yeah! I was rather shocked to know that there was a hero who took things into their own hands! So it turned out to be Teacher Zhang!"

"I\'ll give him a Like! I\'ll give Teacher Zhang a year\'s worth of Likes for that!"

"I\'ve watched the video five times. It\'s so awesome!"

"That leg trip was simply perfect!"

"Tripping five people over with a leg! Oh my god! How did Zhang Ye manage that?"

"Who knows! That leg trip was just too godly, damn it!"

"How shocking! This is the goddamn Leg of God!"

The leg he stretched out in the video was too wicked and too precise. It was like he had used a computer to accurately work out the required force and execution angles as he lightly tripped one of them to send all five referees sprawling out onto the ground. It really dumbfounded countless viewers. Even many of the foreigners had been shocked by this video clip. If there was a tripping event in the Olympics, then this person would definitely deserve to be the champion. Have you ever seen anyone who could trip five people with just a light swipe of their leg? This leg was simply…

Yes!

It was the Leg of God!

As Zhang Ye had played that amazing "Hand of God" during the "war between humans and machines" against PeterGo, the audience got their inspiration from there and aptly gave a resounding name to this move—the "Leg of God"!

It was so awesome!

It was quite the release!

"Teacher Zhang is so impressive!"

"As expected of Zhang Ye!"

"Zhang Ye, I just love that fiery temper of yours!"

"Zhang Ye is so domineering!"

"I\'ve always scolded Zhang Ye in the past, but I must give him a Like today!"

"There\'s nothing to say. That leg trip was too good!"

"Zhang Ye put his leg out and tripped them for our nation!"

"He tripped them with such style! You can see how good he is just from that trip alone!"

"Hahahaha! I knew it must be him! Who else could do something like this other than Zhang Ye? No one else would have the guts besides him!"

"This is what I call a real man!"

"Just with that trip alone, I\'ll only be convinced by Zhang Ye in showbiz!"

"Aiya, don\'t cause any more trouble. Why aren\'t you guys worried for Teacher Zhang? The police are investigating the affair. This is very serious, so Teacher Zhang better not get implicated somehow!"

"Previous poster, stay calm."

"Haha, what are you so worried about!"

"Zhang Ye has done so many things in the past that are even more extreme than this, but have you ever seen that fellow get into any trouble? He\'s still doing as well as ever! It\'s not like he\'s beaten anyone up. He only tripped one of them, what\'s the big deal? Teacher Zhang has been through a lot, so don\'t worry about him. He knows what he\'s doing. Do you take him for a pushover?"

"But it\'ll still affect his image."

"Does he have an image to begin with?"

"But if the foreigners start criticizing him…"

"You\'re so funny, big sis! This is Zhang Ye we\'re talking about! When has Zhang Ye ever been afraid of anyone criticizing him? He\'s just like a rock in the privy—hard and stinky!"

"Alright, I\'ll stop worrying."

There was a heated discussion on the Internet!

Though to be more accurate, everyone was delighted at the reveal!

Meanwhile, the media reports could not possibly be so blasé. Even if some of the Chinese reporters were applauding this action, they couldn\'t write that in their reports!

The Chinese media: "Zhang Ye appears in surveillance footage!"

The British media: "The culprit is the singer of the Olympic opening theme song?"

The Australian media: "Shock! Indignation! Objection!"

The South Korean media: "Was the Chinese superstar retaliating?"

The Canadian media: "Unbelievable! A never before witnessed behavior!"

The Chinese people were not surprised as they all understood Zhang Ye very well!

But the foreigners were very dumbfounded. No one could imagine that the Chinese celebrity who had represented Beijing to sing at the opening ceremony with Lillian would actually trip someone over like this!

What the hell was that?

What kind of a person was he?

And what did he fucking sing in the opening theme song?

You and me, from one world. / We are family!

From one world, your sister!

We are family, your sister!

Why was what you sang and what you did an entirely different thing altogether!

Now that they listened to the song again, it really made many of the foreign media and athletes unsure about how to react!

When those injured weightlifting referees saw the video, they finally understood why they had been injured and how they had fallen down. They became so indignant they immediately lodged a complaint and protested to the higher-ups. They requested for the assailant to be seriously punished so that they could be given a fair answer!

However, the Beijing Organizing Committee for the Olympic Games did not show any indication of issue them with one and only said that the matter had already been referred to the police.

Sensing that the Organizing Committee was not proactive on the issue, the five referees became furious!

But if they stopped to think for a bit, they were the ones who had deliberately done something as insulting as making an incorrect call in an event at the Beijing Olympics that caused the Chinese team to lose a gold medal. That had affected the Chinese athletes physically and psychologically. The citizens were also angered that this decision was not made in the spirit of sportsmanship. Now that something has happened to you all, you\'re demanding that the Organizing Committee give you a fair answer? You are demanding for an explanation to be given? Does that make any sense! Aren\'t you all expecting a little too much! Do you all think that the world revolves around you?

Further, this issue had nothing to do with the Organizing Committee!

Who was Zhang Ye?

A coach? He wasn\'t!

An athlete? He wasn\'t!

He wasn\'t even a worker here!

Zhang Ye was not under their jurisdiction at all. He wasn\'t an official of the Olympics and had only come to perform the Olympic opening theme song as a guest, so anything after that had nothing to do with them. If they really wanted to say anything, then he would at most be considered as a normal audience member. What authority could the Organizing Committee possibly have over him?

So those referees could only pin their hopes on the police!

A lot of people were also curious about how the police would handle this matter!

…

In the studio.

There was a knock on the door, and they saw four police officers standing outside.

Little Wang\'s expression changed. "You all are?"

The old policeman who was in charge showed his credentials and said sternly, "Hello, we\'re from the Chaoyang District Police Station, is Zhang Ye around? We would like to ask him some questions."

Zhang Ye walked up to them. "I\'m here."

The old policeman nodded at him. "Hello. Regarding the incident that took place at one of the Olympic venues today, we have identified that you were involved after checking the surveillance footage. Is that correct?"

Zhang Ye said, "It was me."

Ha Qiqi immediately said, "Please talk to our lawyer about this. We won\'t be answering any questions for now!"

But Zhang Ye waved her off. "It\'s fine." Then, he said to the police officers, "Ask away."

The old policeman said, "Thank you for your cooperation."

Zhang Ye smiled. "It\'s my duty."

The old policeman asked another question. "At 8:10 PM tonight, did you go to Olympic Venue No. 3 because you lost your way? Or did you go there for other reasons?"

Zhang Ye answered honestly, "I went there to look for the five referees, of course."

"Director Zhang!" Ha Qiqi tugged at him.

The old policeman acknowledged him and turned to the policeman beside him who was recording the statement. "He lost his way."

That young policeman nodded and recorded it.

Zhang Ye: "…"

The studio staff: "…"

The old policeman looked at him. "In the surveillance footage, you were seen sticking your leg out. Was it intentional? Or unintentional? Did you trip over something on the ground? And lost your balance thus making you stick your leg out to steady yourself?"

Zhang Ye spoke the truth, "I definitely did it on purpose. I was there for them."

"OK." The old policeman turned to the younger policeman and said, "He tripped over something at the time, so he stuck out his leg as he tried to regain his balance."

The young policeman recorded the statement.

Zhang Ye: "…"

Ha Qiqi: "…"

Zhang Zuo: "…"

Five minutes later, the police were done with their questioning.

They had recorded a statement that was completely different from what Zhang Ye answered!

The old policeman said, "There wouldn\'t be any criminal liability for this issue. Those referees did not suffer any serious injuries. It was mostly just scraped skin and the like. The surveillance footage wasn\'t that clear either. At most, you\'d be asked to cough up the medical expenses as compensation, but that wouldn\'t cost much anyway. Alright, if there are any new developments to the case, we might come over again or ask you to come down to the police station to assist with the investigation. Since we\'re done questioning, that\'s all for today. We won\'t be disturbing you all any longer. We still have other matters waiting for us to handle when we get back."

Ha Qiqi hurriedly said, "Let me see you all off!"

"There\'s no need," the old policeman said with a smile.

Ha Qiqi whispered, "Thank you."

The old policeman waved at her. "We\'re just doing our jobs. There\'s nothing to thank me for. We\'re off then."

As Ha Qiqi was the head of external affairs in the studio, she walked the police officers downstairs and saw them off from there.
