The opening of China Entertainment Group gave Jay Chou a head-on confrontation

Chapter 854 Global shock!

美国时间2005年7月20日，上午10：37分——

The global media industry was shaken just because of one man!
Countless pieces of news are spreading out from Columbia University, and countless media professionals are urgently processing the news into publications!

The incident of Spike being shot swept the global Internet at the speed of a force 12 gale, equally hitting every netizen who had just started surfing or was currently surfing!
American TV stations including CBS, ABC, NBC, Fox Broadcasting Company, ESPN, HBO, CINEMAX, etc. all urgently canceled their currently broadcast programs and instead broadcast the breaking news of Spike being shot in real time!
Not only the United States—

United Kingdom, France, Germany, Spain, Italy, Australia, Canada, Chile, Brazil, Cuba, Argentina, Japan, South Korea, Thailand, Singapore, Malaysia, Philippines, Afghanistan, Saudi Arabia, Iran, Iraq, Qatar, Egypt and so on.

Television stations in five continents, including China, cancelled all their existing programs the moment they learned the news, and instead broadcast the fact that the world's first pop musician since the 21st century had been shot in the United States!

"At 10:37 New York time, world pop superstar Spike was shot on the Columbia University campus..."

"Here is an urgent news: At 10:37 US time, Spike, the emperor of Chinese pop music, the No. in Asian pop music history, and the No. in new age pop music sales, was shot by gangsters in Manhattan, New York, USA..."

"Just now, the international superstar Spike was shot while giving a speech at Columbia University..."

"Dear audience friends, here is an urgent news: At 10:37 a.m. local time in the United States, our young singer Zhou Yi was viciously shot at Columbia University..."

Chinese, English, French, German, Spanish, Italian, Japanese, Korean, Thai, etc.

In just half an hour, after TV stations in countries on five continents confirmed the situation, the hosts of the programs reported this shocking fact in the official language of their own country!
Vicious incident!
This is a truly vicious incident!
"God! Why? What did Spike do wrong?!"

"The United States is a country where murderers are rampant!"

"Rest in peace Spike, may God bless you with no more pain in the afterlife."

"?"

"Spike hasn't said whether he's dead or not, has he?"

"It was said that he was shot by a sniper. If he is still alive, it means that he underestimates the sniping skills of the Americans."

"Fuck you, the Americans killed Zhou Yi?!"

Compared with Europe and the United States, the number of active Internet users in China at this moment in the early morning is not too large - but the sudden outburst of screen-sweeping posts directly caused forums such as Tianya and Mop to crash!
Even the forum became extremely cluttered, and the impact of public opinion was visible to the naked eye.

What a joke!
The number one person in the history of Chinese pop music is gone just like that?

Just when it seemed like it could suppress the American music industry, it got shot in the United States?
Wang Xiaoyu was stunned when he was awakened by his subordinate's phone call: "No, are you sure it's true? Could it be some fake news that is indistinguishable from the real thing?"

"It's true, Brother Wang. We have confirmed it. Now, all news programs broadcast by television stations in various countries around the world have inserted this urgent news. CCTV has also broadcast it..."

Wang Xiaoyu: “…”

what?
Wang Xiaoyu didn't care about anything else at the moment. He jumped up and went to the living room to make a phone call - he didn't care about anything else at the moment and directly called his boss's private phone.

But the busy tone he got made him feel silent.

Oh shit!

Could it be that...

Ah bah bah!

Wang Xiaoyu slapped himself on the face and decisively called Cheng Hao's private number -

"Hey?"

"Good sister, something happened, the boss was shot in the United States!"

"What did you say?!!"

Taiwan.

Sun Yanzi, who came to participate in the show and offline activities, was directly awakened by a call from his agent Ji Shengshan. What she said made Sun Yanzi, who was still drowsy, open his eyes wide in an instant: "How is this possible?!"

"General Jianhui informed me, it must be true. But he is ready to leave for the United States immediately. If there is any news, he will be the first to -"

"Sister Shan, buy me a ticket to the United States. I want to go too!"

Sun Yanzi, whose heart was instantly raised to his throat by this news, immediately interrupted his agent's words: "Push all the upcoming announcements, and have the driver drive to the community to pick me up to the airport in 15 minutes!"

After that, without giving her any chance to speak, Sun Yanzi hung up the phone directly——

She pursed her lips, and scenes of Zhou Yi and her interactions over the years flashed through her mind. Tears welled up in her eyes, but she quickly packed her luggage and ran downstairs carrying it.

Zhouyi...

Zhouyi!

I couldn’t get through to him on the phone, and even Zhou Yi’s agent Qian Jiang and his assistant’s phone numbers were all unreachable.

Sun Yanzi was so anxious that it was increasingly difficult for him to control his thoughts...

No...

No!

She felt as if a piece of her heart was being shaved off.

She couldn't hold back her tears even after getting into the driver's car. She hesitated for a long time on the way to the airport before she made up her mind to call Cheng Hao and tell her the news.

"Hey?"

"Okay, Zhou Yi—something happened to Zhou Yi!"

The sobs that Sun Yanzi had been trying hard to hold back her tears suddenly burst out after hearing Cheng Hao's reassuring voice. She couldn't stop the hot tears from flowing, and she blurted them all out.

"I know, I know Yanzi. Don't worry, don't worry."

Cheng Hao's voice was still so reassuring: "I have contacted Zhou Yi, and he is undergoing a checkup at the hospital. Although he said he is fine, you should go to the United States to check on him first. I will be late. I need to pick up Zhou Yi's parents first and take them to the United States. Otherwise, his uncle and aunt will be very worried..."

Although calm and reassuring, one could still clearly feel the trembling in her voice amid Cheng Hao's orderly arrangements.

She was also afraid—

Afraid of facing the result that she doesn't want to face.

But she still had to force herself to calm down and take charge of the situation.

Considering Zhou Yi's parents' age and their overdrawn health from working part-time in their early years, the overwhelming news tomorrow morning might make the two elderly people collapse.

She had to make all the arrangements.

The huge Chinese entertainment industry was in chaos because of this sudden news even in the middle of the night!

..........................................

"Incredible, simply incredible!"

New York, NewYork-Presbyterian Hospital (New York Presbyterian Columbia and Cornell University Hospital), the top American hospital in Manhattan, New York, doctors welcomed a miracle today——

"God, an AR-15 rifle only caused you a scratch? Are you really not God's bastard son, Spike?"

Looking at the man who had just completed a full-body examination and whose left ear had been bandaged, the doctor exclaimed: "Your report shows that you are in extremely good health. You are the healthiest person I have ever seen in all my years of practice. No doubt about it."

As for the scrapes?
It will be back to normal in half a month at most.

"I don't know either, maybe I really am the number one person under God?" Zhou Yi put on his clothes with a clear look in his eyes, but his temperament seemed to have a subtle change from what he was a few hours ago.

Qian Jiang felt this most clearly.

The Consul of the Chinese Consulate General in New York, USA in Manhattan, personally led a team to the hospital and appeared with officials from New York State and the U.S. federal government to listen to relevant information.

Zhou Yi was shot in broad daylight on a New York campus——

This is a crisis that has risen to the level of a diplomatic incident.

Even the ambassador called to inquire as soon as he heard the news.

"The murderer had an AR-15 in his hand, and he was found after firing only three shots. In a panic, he tried to engage in a gunfight with our bodyguards and the police, but was shot dead by the police on the spot."

Back in the private ward, Qian Jiang finally put his mind at ease and breathed a sigh of relief after the detailed test results came out: "The police also found the corresponding identity information from him.

"Male, 41 years old. From the information we know so far, he is an American war fanatic. He used to be a police officer in Mississippi. He resigned because of his bad character and accidental injuries. He has a clear history of mental illness."

"That's a good thing he was beaten to death on the spot. I'll give some thank-you money to the Thirteenth Branch when the time comes." Zhou Yi smiled while gritted his teeth.

New York has not abolished the death penalty, but the death penalty sentences are unusually long, so it is better to die.

The fanatical fan who shot and killed John Lennon for second-degree murder has been sentenced to death, but the death penalty has not yet been carried out.

He didn't want to wait even a minute.

"Where did he get the AR-15? Wasn't it banned?" "To be precise, it was banned before. In 1994, legislation was passed to ban civilian production, but the ban happened to expire in 2004, so this year you can buy it on the market."

"..."

Damn, it just happened that the ban was lifted this year, right?

This is very American style.

Zhou Yi let out a long sigh and glanced at the hospital gown on his body, thoughts surging in his mind -

After a while, he said, "I'm sorry, Lao Qian."

Qian Jiang, who was still thanking the heavens, the earth, and his ancestors for their miracles, suddenly froze in place.

"After 25 years of smooth sailing, I became a little too proud to care about my own affairs and forgot what the laws of physics in this world actually are."

After looking at the scenery outside the window for a few seconds, Zhou Yi raised his eyes to look at him and said with a smile: "Thank you for your help."

"..."

Qian Jiang grinned, wanting to laugh, but considering that this was not a good idea in the ward, he could only stop himself. After a while, Qian Jiang took a deep breath, pulled up his belt, and cursed with a smile: "Are you trying to embarrass me here?
"I am your agent, and you are my artist. You do the work, and I am responsible. This is the agent's creed, do you understand?

"Why are you apologizing to me? Take it back!

"I do not accept!"

Zhou Yi also laughed out loud, and opened his arms as their eyes met.

"I really can't do anything with you. This won't happen again."

Qian Jiang cursed, but he was honest and opened his arms to give him a hug: "You are not always so lucky."

"I am Ziweixing, Lao Qian."

"Don't tell me, I really think you might be a Purple Star. It's too weird. Oh, if this news gets out in Europe and America, you will probably be regarded as the Son of God."

Qian Jiang smacked his lips and felt a little dizzy.

He instinctively felt that the title of Son of God could be marketed.

Now that Zhou Yi is sure everything is fine, his instinct as a manager will kick in.

His short-term goal is to gain as much capital as possible from this accident for Zhou Yi that cannot be shaken by future generations.

"Have you told Cheng Haoyanzi and the others?"

"I said that, but they still want to come. Of course, it's not just them."

As Zhou Yi was talking, there was a knock at the door of the ward.

Scarlett Johansson, Anne Hathaway, supermodel AA, Jessica Alba and others who were in New York all made an appearance.

"Spike!"

"God! are you ok?"

............................................................

《0.8mm miracle! Phoenix is ​​reborn in blood!》

"A miracle under precise calculation: How Spike rewrote human history with a distance of 0.8 mm!"

"Only a minor scratch! The Spike shooting case has become one of the top ten unsolved ballistic mysteries since the 20th century!"

"The No. 1 man under God! Phoenix Spike deserves the title!"

"..."

Such a major event can never be concealed.

Warner officials simply announced Zhou Yi's test results directly, and the miraculous numbers made everyone stunned.

At this moment, even the media that had always disliked him all stood on his side!
US Media:

"The guns are still ringing, the songs are even louder! Phoenix Spike - a living legend!"

"Son of God: Bullets grazed his ears, Spike defined the divinity of rock in the new era!"

A divine photo captured by a Fox News reporter, along with the urgent reports of various publications, instantly swept across Europe and America at the speed of a tornado.

Under the blue sky, the banner with the slogan "The First Man Under God" was falling diagonally, but Zhou Yi's bloody hand raised high seemed to be holding it;
The blood-stained guitar exudes a dazzling glow, like the medal of the god of war; the angular face looks like the legendary Son of God under the bright sunlight!
British media:

"The New York Nirvana of the Eastern Phoenix: The Spike shooting incident ignites global faith!"

"Spike graffiti appears on the Champs-Elysées: bloody image combined with the armless Venus!" -

“He used his body to complete an existentialist performance art—when bullets become applause, death loses to life!”

"..."

German media:

"The characteristics of the Phoenix: The Munich Ballistics Research Institute simulated 500 times and it showed that it would definitely die!"

"The Last Saint of the Golden Rock Age!"

《The body protection spell of the mysterious power of the East: scattered wooden bead bracelets and broken jade pendants! 》

"..."

The photo that looked like the Son of God became the only option that all major newspapers had to quote. Along with the publication of major European and American newspapers, the cheering slogan "The First Man Under God" in the photo became the source of carnival in the whole of Europe, South America, and North America at this moment!

At this legendary moment, godhood has been achieved!

"The Immortal Body Week!" (The Immortal Spike Chow!)》

"Domestic jade pendant sales surged 150% in one day, and small commodity factories urgently increased production of wooden bead bracelets!"

"People in Baghdad gathered to watch the video footage of the shooting, and thousands of people recited the Quran and prayed for Zhou Yi!"

"..."

The new world king of pop, along with this world-shaking news, spread to every corner of the five continents!
However, what worries everyone is——

Although Warner officially announced that nothing was wrong, according to informants in the hospital, Spike did not leave the ward - and Warner even extended Spike's contract for another half a month.

And another public opinion storm also swept in along with this photo that became popular all over the world!
