Chapter 1295: The big wedding (Beginning)
Translator: Legge Editor: Legge
On the day of the wedding .
In the morning, in the Beijing suburbs .
At the hot spring resort .
Today was Zhang Ye's wedding day, and all the big local media outlets had sent their representatives here . It still wasn't time to enter yet, as over 100 reporters stood in a long snaking line outside the resort . They were all waiting to be admitted so that they could get a good spot the moment they got in . The reporters' vehicles were parked together, and there were sightings of the media everywhere . Several television stations were even doing a live coverage of the event from outside the resort .
Before long, it was almost time .
The reporters were going to get admitted into the venue with the invitations in their hands .
"Hey, don't squeeze!"
"Aiyo, slow down a little!"
"Who stepped on me?"
"Motherfucker, are you rushing to reincarnate?!"
"Aren't you rushing as well!"
"It's my business that I'm rushing, what does it have anything to do with you!"
When the doors were opened, a large number of reporters flocked into the venue . None of them were walking, as everyone ran straight for the open-air garden of the hot spring resort where the reception area was situated! The invitation that Zhang Ye's Studio had sent out to the media was different from other guests' . It included some details like requests for the media outlets' representatives to arrive before a certain time, the location of their activity area, and a list of barred items . It was written very clearly on the invitation that the reporters could freely take photographs from their activity area during the reception . But for the official Chinese-style wedding ceremony that would be taking place afterwards, none of the reporters would be allowed in the venue . This meant that the reception during the first part of the wedding was just for show to let the public know about it and to account to the media . The actual wedding ceremony would not be witnessed by any media and only the bride and groom's close friends and relatives would be allowed to attend .
In the open-air garden .
Many of the reporters were dumbfounded by what they saw the moment they arrived!
"Ah?"
"What the heck!"
"W-Why are there so many advertisements out here?"
"Is this a trade fair!"
"How are we supposed to avoid framing all of that in our pictures!"
"Pfft!"
"Zhang Ye, that joker!"
"Only he can come up with so many surprises!"
"That's right! That fellow is always able to come up with things that nobody expects!"
"How maddening! Isn't this as good as telling us that if we want to get firsthand news of his wedding to report about, we have to advertise the brands that he is endorsing as well? There are so many advertisements around that we won't be able to avoid capturing them when we take photos or videos of the wedding, yet he is not allowing us to join in for the actual ceremony . He just wants to make us do all the hard work and not be able to enjoy the fruits of our labor? Your sister! This is the first time I've seen such an immoral celebrity! He's really making full use of the media this way! Zhang Ye hardly ever gave interviews in the past, so I was wondering why he was so generous this time!"
"Did you think that this fellow's behavior was only like this recently?"
"You're still inexperienced and don't yet understand Zhang Ye well enough, hur hur . When you get to know him better, you'll learn that there are only things that you wouldn't expect, and nothing that he wouldn't be capable of doing . This fellow is the most unique oddity of the entertainment circle . Everything that he does will surely be different from others' actions . If you even start to measure him with common sense, you'll have already lost the game!"
"Enough talking, let's hurry and get a good spot . Even if his intentions are to plaster all our photos and videos with those advertisements, we still have to do our job . If we don't, how will we answer to our bosses when we get back?"
"That's right, the guests should be arriving soon!"
From this moment on, the wedding officially began .
The reporters on the inside were guided by staffers from Zhang Ye's Studio, while Wu Zeqing's secretary, Bai Li, was in charge of overseeing the outside entrance where the guests were welcomed . The entrance was very important, and a lot of candidates had been considered to take charge of it . In the end, none of them got chosen . No matter how they considered it, Secretary Bai was still the most suitable candidate of all . She was familiar with those from the entertainment industry since she had dealt with them before, while she also knew those from the SARFT . As such, whether it was Zhang Ye or Wu Zeqing's friends and relatives, she basically knew them all .
Outside .
At the entrance .
Secretary Bai was holding the fort .
Chen Guang arrived together with his wife, Fan Wenli .
Fan Wenli smiled and said, "Secretary Bai?"
They had heard of Secretary Bai's name long before today . It was not only because she was Wu Zeqing's secretary at the SARFT, but also because she came from a rather important background . Her father was the head of one of the provincial television stations .
Secretary Bai smiled and welcomed them . "Teacher Chen, Teacher Fan, you've arrived? Please head inside . There will be someone to receive you in there . "
After passing her, Chen Guang whispered, "We'd better not try anything funny today . "
Fan Wenli laughed and said, "I know . "
Chen Guang said in regret, "Back then, I thought that we would be able to enjoy ourselves and have a lot of fun when Zhang Ye got married . But now that it turns out that he's marrying Chief Wu, there's no chance of that anymore!"
Fan Wenli giggled, "Pfft . "
A large group made up of over a dozen people arrived and walked over .
Peking University's Dean Pan Yang of the School of Mathematical Sciences was leading the way .
Peking University's Dean Chang Kaige of the Chinese Department was beside him, along with Su Na and the rest of the Chinese Department following them .
Secretary Bai smiled and went up to them in greeting . "You all must be friends from Peking University, right? Welcome, welcome . Quick, please go inside . "
Pan Yang said in surprise, "Oh, Secretary Bai knows us?"
Secretary Bai gave a congenial smile and said, "Of course . You're all Teacher Zhang's colleagues and friends, as well as Chief Wu's family . "
This was rather true . Wu Zeqing used to be a vice president at Peking University, so to claim that they were her family was not wrong at all .
The group of them entered the building .
Pan Yang smiled and said, "This is quite a spectacle . "
