Translator: Legge Editor: Legge
The movie ended.
The premiere was supposed to be over.
But there was an extrely excited atmosphere in the theater at the mont, and no one was leaving. Many of the Chinese reporters imdiately rushed out of their seats and surrounded the main cast of Wolf Warrior 2. The female lead, Sophia. The spoiled brat, Boss Qian Jr.. The main antagonist, Jacques. They spared none of them.
“Ms. Sophia!”
“Please accept our interview!”
“Mr. Jacques, how did Zhang Ye manage to convince you to join the production?”
“Boss Qian Jr., why did you decide to join the cast of this movie?”
“Teacher Yao, I really liked your role in the movie!”
“Teacher Shanshan, you didn’t have too many scenes in this movie, but it’s obvious that you should be the female lead of the first movie. Has Director Zhang said anything about when he will shoot Wolf Warrior 1?”
Groups and groups of reporters surrounded them.
Many of the actors were scrambling to cope with the dia personnel.
There was a shimring light in the eyes of the reporters as they descended into a frenzy!
Over there, Zhang Ye was sward by his relatives and friends.
Ha Qiqi and Zhang Zuo both hugged Zhang Ye. “Director Zhang, you’re amazing!”
Ning Lan walked over. “Zhang’er, you’re so impressive!”
“I feel the sa.” Shu Han sighed and said, “You really managed to make the movie!”
Chen Guang was yelling as he ran up, “Damn, how did you do it!”
Fan Wenli gave him a thumbs up. “Watching you in your first movie, your acting was quite good.”
Zhang Xia said, “Whatever movies that get released at the sa ti as you are in for a bad ti.”
His parents.
His parents-in-law
His cousins.
Everyone ca over excitedly to congratulate him.
At the back, after several of the big na directors in China had gotten over their shock, they fell silent all at once. Then they looked at each other before finally shifting their gazes to one person. They stared at him in a particular kind of way.
They were looking at Zhou Zhao.
An elite Chinese film director.
Zhou Zhao said in a speechless manner, “Why’re you all looking at !”
Li Ke asked, “Old Zhou, isn’t your new movie opening next week?”
Several of the directors next to him nodded.
“Yes.”
“Next week.”
“His movie will be released next week.”
Zhou Zhao was speechless.
He didn’t say anything. He just turned around and picked up his cell phone to make a call. “Hello, Old Chen, go and contact the theater chains and and the proposal to the SARFT. We’re not going to show our movie next week—if I say we aren’t, then we aren’t! Why do you care! Just hurry up and get it done as I said! Push the release back by another two weeks!”
Li Ke was dumbfounded!
The other directors were also dumbfounded!
After hanging up, Zhou Zhao looked at them and said, “It’s not going to be next week anymore.”
After holding it back for a long ti, Li Ke finally said, “Shaless!”
The other directors around him looked at him in contempt. “That’s how you react?”
But Zhou Zhao spread his hands. “There’s nothing else to do. You need to know when to cut your losses.”
They were all elite directors in China, especially Zhou Zhao, who was one of the most senior figures in the directing world. But after watching Wolf Warrior 2, Zhou Zhao did not even hesitate and imdiately postponed the premiere of his new movie. This showed just how great of a competitor he thought Wolf Warrior 2 would be.
A female director asked, “What kind of box office earnings do you guys think he’ll achieve?”
Another director sighed and said, “Let’s see if the regular folks will buy tickets.”
Li Ke turned his gaze to the outside of the theater and said, “The first showing at the other theaters should be over as well, right? I wonder how many people have gotten shocked by this new movie of Zhang Ye’s!”

“Th-This doesn’t make any sense!”

“Motherfucker, you’re asking ? Aren’t you crying yourself?”
“Hai, it was such an exciting watch, I couldn’t hold back my tears!”

“Yeah, if they don’t watch this movie, they’re going to regret it for the rest of their lives!”
“The best quote from the movie has to be: ‘Whoever offends the mighty nation of China, however distant, shall be destroyed!’”
“These were the exact words that Zhang Ye declared back when he was an unknown hacker!”
“That’s right. I always get pumped when I hear it!”
“When I learned that Commando 2 wouldn’t be showing in China, I felt so bad about it for several days. I quite like that series and have always liked Director Wilson’s movies. But after watching Wolf Warrior 2, the only thing I wish to say now is: Fuck you, Wilson! Fuck you and your Commando movie!”
