Chapter 739: Saitama 2002: Green-Clad Samurai vs. Cosmic Dinosaur

The Paper — Japanese starlet Tao Tao Naimu shares a photo with Tang Ye: "My idol!"

Reposted by Dongqiu Di: Tang Ye was photographed chatting with Tao Tao Naimu at a corner of the player tunnel; both seemed in high spirits.

【???】

【Tang Tang Qiuwang, don't fall for the Japanese conspiracy!】

【Tang Tang Qiuwang, please, just film one (crying) (crying) (crying)】

Judging from the video footage posted by Dongqiu Di, Tang Ye likely mistook Tao Tao Naimu for an ordinary fan.

Of course, Tao Tao Naimu herself is indeed a football fan.

It's just that...

Perhaps you should call her a "special kind of fan"?

Fans meeting their idol is nothing particularly novel.

It's just that the timing is too awkward; any gesture of goodwill toward Tang Ye will be interpreted by Chinese fans as a conspiracy.

【2021 Weibo Movie Night】

In the evening, inside the Weibo livestream room.

No one knew what had happened, but the room had gathered over nine million viewers, with danmu comments flying everywhere.

Everyone says Weibo has many zombie accounts, and even the audience in livestream rooms consists mostly of zombies.

But today's situation was somewhat special.

Judging from the danmu activity, these nine million-plus real-time viewers seemed to possess a certain degree of authenticity.

【Zhou Ye, stop accepting awards, your home has been stolen, damn it!】

【Sister Zhou, save the Chinese team, please!!】

【Tang Ye has been deceived by the Japanese; don't accept this award, or we won't make it to the World Cup.】

【Wait, what are you guys talking about?】

【The Chinese team is in trouble, return immediately!】

Amid the bewilderment of star-chasers and movie buffs, #Tang Ye# and #China# became the two keywords of the 2021 Weibo Movie Night.

Among them, Zhou Ye, a newcomer to the film industry, simultaneously won three awards at this ceremony: Most Popular Actor of the Year, Most Powerful Actor of the Year, and Best Newcomer of the Year; with a heat value of 70.34 million, she suppressed Jackie Chan to become the most discussed actor nationwide over the past twelve months.

What's exaggerated is that Zhou Ye achieved all this using only one movie, namely The Better Days, in which she played a bully.

Top 1: Zhou Ye (Heat Value 70.34 million), Keywords: Tang Ye, ggbond, Back-to-Back Champions League Titles, Home Invasion, Champions League War God, Ball King.

Top 2: Jackie Chan (Heat Value 57.22 million), Keywords: Uncle Dragon, Watching Wimbledon with Tang Ye, Vanguard, Wish Dragon.

Top 3: Donnie Yen (Heat Value 39.22 million), Keywords: Raging Fire, Ip Man 4 Re-release, Charlie Chaplin Film Achievement Award.

Judging by the heat values and keywords, Zhou Ye is absolutely the most talented actor of the 21st century, bar none.

Because she defeated a host of veteran film predecessors with just one movie where she played a supporting role, rivaling even Heath Ledger, who played the Joker in Batman; moreover, Zhou Ye's annual keywords include the extremely arrogant title "King."

However, Heath Ledger ultimately won the Oscar for Best Supporting Actor, which indeed makes him more impressive than Zhou Ye in that regard.

So the question arises: Can Zhou Ye win any Oscar-related awards?

"I think that depends on the Chinese team and Tang Ye."

Supporters of other film stars on Weibo spoke sarcastically: "Once the national football team wins the World Cup championship, Zhou Ye should be able to lie down and win again."

【6666】

【Wait, how dare they mess with my ggbond's woman?】

【Flame her, flame her, brothers, let's go!】

【Gathering here from Dongqiu Di. Brothers, tonight let's occupy Weibo together, charge!!!】

【Holy crap, I just registered this Weibo account; someone actually dares to criticize Tang Ye. Suggest checking their background.】

Although lying down and winning awards is indeed not good behavior, the fans of other actors were actually somewhat impulsive.

Fans of sports channels can always unite very well at certain times, even when they know what they are doing is wrong.

This results in sports fans possessing a very special characteristic—extremely strong online combat capability.

Currently, many of Tang Ye's fans have converted from Messi and Ronaldo supporters; having received "good education" from the Messi-Ronaldo rivalry, they are capable of killing gods and blocking spirits on Douyin, Weibo, and Tieba.

"I don't care if what you say is right or not; anyway, you are wrong. What are you, a movie actor, doing messing around here?"

"What trash, trying to ride the coattails of my Tang Tang Qiuwang."

"I can't stand you guys; why didn't you call me for the World War?"

"Nippon! (Japan)"

"Nippon!"

Many fans wearing blue jerseys gathered outside Saitama Stadium; they were all loyal supporters of the Japanese men's football team.

"Today, the Japanese team will face the powerful Chinese National Team at Saitama 2002 Stadium in Saitama City; according to reactions from multiple media outlets, this should be the biggest challenge encountered by the Japanese national team in this round of the Asian Preliminaries Top 12!"

Several young fans with brown hair passed in front of the camera, clenching their right fists: "Tatakae!! (Fight/Go!)"

Click click!

Under the gaze of nearly one hundred reporters, Tang Ye and Wu Lei arrived at the press conference venue.

"Tang Ye, can you make a prediction for today's match score?"

"What is your evaluation of the Japanese team?"

"Will the Japanese team make you feel pressure?"

He sat down on the chair, then picked up the microphone.

The venue finally fell silent.
