I’m Really a Superstar

Translator: Legge Editor: Legge

The movie was still showing.

With just the opening, everyone's attention was caught. The theater fell silent. There wasn't any more whispering. Everyone just stared at the screen with wide eyes, wanting to see how to plot would develop. They wanted to know about Leng Feng's story and what would happen next.

…

On the silver screen.

The movie flashed back.

A real estate company's demolition team was demolishing residential houses.

Zhang Ye escorted the remains of his comrade back home.

Zhang Ye got into a fight.

He got dishonorably discharged from the military.

Went to jail.

The most elite special ops team known as the Wolf Warriors was revealed as a result.

…

The movie cut away.

Africa.

Yao Jiancai made his appearance.

"Look, we're both Chinese. You do this to your own people?"

"Hey, ever since 3 PM on the 14th of last month, I haven't been a Chinese citizen."

A gunfight started and chaos erupted. The intense shootout on the African streets and in the supermarket made everyone tremble in anxiety.

"What do we do now?"

"The Chinese Embassy."

"Let's go to the embassy. They'll take us in. We're Chinese."

"What about us?"

"Will they accept us too?"

"Hard to say, that's our country."

In the theater, peals of laughter could be heard.

Chinese?

You're back to being Chinese now?

…

On the coast.

The Chinese fleet was preparing for emergency evacuation operations.

"47 Chinese workers are still stuck at the Hanbond Chinese factory. What's worse, Dr. Chen is stuck 55 kilometers behind enemy lines on a medical relief mission. He's a high value target for the rebel army."

"Everything is in total lockdown from Lochino to St. Francis. Without the UN's authorization, our troops aren't allowed to enter the war zone."

"This operation is highly important! We have to evacuate those Chinese workers and Dr. Chen by all means!"

"Under the current circumstances, combat troops are prohibited from entering the war zone. Someone has to undertake the mission alone!"

"I'll go."

"Stop right there. What are you doing?"

"Former People's Liberation Army, Southeast Military Region, Special Operations Forces, Wolf Warriors, Leng Feng, reporting for duty!"

…

On the savanna.

In the jeep.

"Stop the car. Stop it!"

"Stop the car, I want to get out!"

The car stopped.

Sophia opened the door and got out of the car. But before she could even take a few steps, she stopped in her tracks. On the silver screen, several lions were gnawing on the carcass of a zebra. Sophia coolly brushed her hair back and shrugged before turning around "calmly." She slowly walked back to the car and closed the door after getting in.

"Your Marines are here to pick you up."

"…"

Everyone in the audience doubled over in laughter.

Hahahaha!

…

At an African factory.

It was time for Boss Qian Jr.'s appearance.

"Seen one of these? Ever shot one of these before?"

"This wolf here, I killed it myself with this rifle."

"This is a real man's toy. Don't be afraid. From now on, your safety will be my responsibility."

The mercenaries attacked the factory.

"Ahhhh!"

"Help me! They got my leg!"

"You're fucking fine!"

Everyone in the theater was laughing.

But as they watched, they saw Boss Qian Jr.'s character transform from a boy into a man. When his character viciously shot dead the mercenary built like a bull, the one-liner he delivered excited the audience.

"Didn't your momma tell you not to play with the weap—"

Bang!

"Didn't your momma tell you not to fuck with spoiled brats!"

The moviegoers were so astonished that they let out a loud "wow"!

…

On the warship.

"Sir, we've triangulated the cell phone's signal!"

"Sir, targets: locked on!"

Sir, we've received orders from high command—"

"Fire!"

Shu Han's eyes turned red!

Ning Lan was on the edge of her seat!

Many of the moviegoers started tearing up!

…

"The war zone is up ahead."

"We can't get through."

All the guns were aimed at them.

All the tanks were aimed at them.

"Where's the flag?"

"Here."

"Drive."

When Zhang Ye hung the five-starred red flag on his arm, when the vehicles drove safely through the battlefield, the entire theater fell silent!

"It's the Chinese!"

"Hold your fire!"

"Hold your fire!"

"It's the Chinese!"

The flag!

It was the Chinese flag!

Li Ke clenched his fists!

Emotion surged through Zhang Ye's parents!

Many of the celebrities were holding back tears!

Pride!

Fervor!

They could feel the different emotions flooding in!

…

At the end of the movie was a Chinese passport.

Everyone in the audience was startled to see it.

A passport?

What did this mean?

At this moment, several lines of text appeared on the back of the passport.

Looking at the words, the audience was unable to get a hold of themselves. It was like a dam had burst!

"To the citizens of the People's Republic of China:

"When you encounter danger overseas,

"do not give up!

"Remember this:

"There is a powerful homeland backing you!"

…

One second.

Two seconds.

Three seconds.

Silence reigned in the theater!

Suddenly, the ending theme played. When the credits scrolled down the silver screen, the theater blew up!

Zhang Ye's mother jumped to her feet. "Bravo!"

His father was also very excited.

Li Ke stood up and applauded!

The directors around him were also clapping in amazement!

Ning Lan was cheering!

Zhang Xia gave a thumbs up!

Shu Han nearly jumped to her feet!

Everyone in the theater was on their feet!

There was round after round of applause!

Half a minute!

One minute!

The applause didn't stop!

Ha Qiqi shouted, "That was great! Great!"

Sophia cried!

Little Wang cried!

Jacques and a few of the American actors were still staring at the screen in disbelief!

Yao Jiancai, Dong Shanshan, and the rest of the film's actors looked at one another in astonishment!

Inside the theater, every one of the industry insiders and celebrities had been stunned!

Even the actors who starred in Wolf Warrior 2 were stunned!

They didn't dare believe what kind of Chinese movie they had watched today!

Although they did not say anything specifically and were all congratulating and saying good things when they saw Zhang Ye earlier, it would be a lie to say that they did not have any doubts at heart. A layman, a pure layman who didn't hail from the film industry had suddenly come to make a movie. Who wouldn't have misgivings about that? Many people were afraid that Zhang Ye's new movie would turn out to be neither fish nor fowl. They were afraid that he would shoot the movie based on his experience in making variety shows or television series and end up making a joke out of it. But now, they realized they were mistaken. Zhang Ye was indeed Zhang Ye. He was indeed still that fucking "King of Crossovers."

Filming.

Casting.

Acting.

Visuals.

3D.

VFX.

Plot.

Pacing.

From the start until the end, there was nothing to nitpick!

It was seamless inside and out!

He really could do it!

He really knew how!

He really knew!

So this is Zhang Ye's new movie?

This is Wolf Warrior 2?

A movie without any male idols, yet it was an enjoyable watch?

Without a Hollywood team, this kind of 3D could be achieved?

Our domestic movies can even be made to such a standard?

Be it the media reporters, the directors from the industry, or the many celebrities who had graced the premiere of Wolf Warrior 2, all of them were left with a very deep impression of the movie!
