Chapter 130 - “Lecture Room – Zhang Ye’s Analysis of the Three Kingdoms” (1/2)

The recording studio.

Ma Hengyuan and the others stepped onto the stage and waited. But after a while, Hu Fei, Zhang Ye and the others still had not come over. Ma Hengyuan just went ahead and signaled to the cameraman to turn on the cameras. He then stood behind the rostrum and got ready to begin speaking without the host.

The cameraman said, “The host is not back yet.”

“There’s no need to wait for him.” Ma Hengyuan said straightforwardly.

“But the executive producer is not back yet, too.” The cameraman, of course, would not listen to him. He was bothered by it, too, thinking, “Why was this guy acting like a big shot? Wasn’t he just a professor? Did he think he was the Station Head!? To be commanding us like this? Do you think that the TV station is your family’s business? Mental! Even if you were the authority on the Three Kingdoms, and even had some influence in Beijing, you still couldn’t do this. You are looking down on others too much!”

Ma Hengyuan was frustrated, too. He looked at the cameras and asked, “Are we recording or not? I have something to do later!”

Ma Hengyuan thought that he was very famous. He had the pride of a scholar. But the audience did not approve of it.

“Who’s that?”

“Why is he such a diva?”

“Ma Hengyuan? Never heard of him!”

“I do know about him. He had been on Central TV before. He was quite famous last year.”

“Even so, he shouldn’t be overriding the staff. He is even giving out instructions now? Isn’t this the Arts Channel’s program? Is he the station’s Leader?”

“What’s with the standard of this person?”

“Right. I almost fell asleep listening to him!”

“It was so uninteresting. He’s pretty sn.o.bbis.h.!.+”

Everyone had seen diva behaviour before, but that had been from the big stars. Regardless of whether such behaviour was right or normal, those were still stars who could afford to do so. But who the heck are you? A respected literary figure who was a professor from the university with a diva behaviour? This was an uncommon encounter!

At this time, Hu Fei and his team came out.

“Let’s get started, Producer Hu!” Ma Hengyuan said impatiently.

Hu Fei was just about to speak, when Zhang Ye stopped him. He wanted to say this himself. Hu Fei understood, Little Zhang wanted to take the responsibility for offending them. He did not reject this after some thought, but just nodded. He and Xiao Lu, Hou Ge and Hou Di returned to their own respective positions. Zhang Ye wasn’t afraid of offending anyone. He had already done so to too many people. There wasn’t any more burden if he were to offend another one.

Ma Hengyuan ignored Zhang Ye and continued speaking, “Let’s talk about Zhou Yu next. Although this person had been characterized in a very positive way in film and TV, in actual fact he was a very jealous person. He….”

“Professor Ma.” Zhang Ye interrupted him without holding back.

Ma Hengyuan face sank, “I’m in the middle of a lecture! What are you interrupting for?”

Zhang Ye said very impolitely, “We don’t need you anymore now. Get lost to as far as your learning goes!”

“What did you say?” Ma Hengyuan was stunned. His face has turned black, “Say that again!”

Editor Xu said, “You, this junior! How can you speak to Professor Ma this way? Eh?”

Zhang Ye said without a change in expression, “I will speak however the person speaks to me!”

Teacher Xu also furiously said, “Incorrigible! You don’t need Professor Ma now? Then you will give the lecture?”

Looking at the two guests surnamed Xu, Zhang Ye said, “And to the two of you: we don’t require you here, too. If you are willing to listen in the audience, then go there and listen. The production team will leave a few VIP seats at the front for you. But if you intend to make trouble onstage and affect our program, then I’m sorry, but I will still say the same. Get lost to as far as your learning goes. We do not welcome troublemakers and divas!”

As far as your learning goes?

Get lost as far as that?

Haha! This line was too good!

A simple line from Zhang Ye turned out to be a refres.h.i.+ng line to the people in this world. The audience was also stunned upon hearing this. Some of those who knew Zhang Ye’s personality were reminded that many of the most popular curses online were created by him. They understood that this person who cursed at others without any worry for repercussions was clearly annoyed by Ma Hengyuan and company. Not only him, after all the events earlier, the audience also began to dislike Ma Hengyuan and company.

Big Sis Zhou said loudly, “Little Zhang, well said!”

Auntie Sun also added, “Go quickly. Everyone is working hard for the recording. You didn’t intend to cooperate and even put on airs and made trouble! What kind of people are you! It’s the first time I’ve seen people like you who took a payment and still showed an att.i.tude to his boss! Do you even make sense?”

The two Xus clenched their fists!

Ma Hengyuan looked coldly at Zhang Ye, “Remember what you said today!”

Zhang Ye said with pleasure, “Don’t you try to threaten me. Of course, I remember my words. I want to tell you another thing. Remember your face today!”

Hu Fei did not bother with them anymore, “Teacher Little Zhang, let’s start.”
