On the screen.

The plot took a sharp turn.

The king and the queen died at sea, leaving the two sisters behind by themselves.

Anna came to Elsa’s door and started singing in a sad voice.

“Elsa?

“Please, I know you’re in there.

“People are asking where you’ve been.

“They say, ‘Have courage.’

“And I’m trying to.

“I’m right out here for you.

“Just let me in.

“We only have each other.

“It’s just you and me.

“What are we gonna do?

“Do you want to build a snowman?”

Anna slumped against the door.

On the other side, Elsa was also leaning back on the door.

On one side, it was a lonely castle. On the other, it was a dark, wintry room.

…

Japan.

In the theater.

Several of the comic publishers’ editors’ eyes had reddened.

“So this is Zhang Ye’s new movie?”

“It’s so touching.”

“They can even use music in this way?”

“How did he think of this!”

…

At a theater in Hollywood.

Star Moon Animation Studios had booked the entire place.

Mark Foran brought the entire company’s staff here today.

From the moment the movie started playing, the employees were dumbfounded. Other than the company’s upper management, everyone was watching the movie for the first time today.

“Oh my God!”

“This was made by us?”

“We made this movie?”

…

On the screen.

The movie continued.

A few years later, the castle was finally going to reopen its gates to the public.

The place was filled with a sense of festivity again. Dignitaries from different nations came to visit. It was a beautiful scene to take in.

Anna sang:

“The window is open!

“So’s that door!

“I didn’t know they did that anymore.

“Who knew we owned 8,000 salad plates?

“For years I’ve roamed these empty halls.

“Why have a ballroom with no balls?

“Finally, they’re opening up the gates!”

Elsa sang:

“Don’t let them in.

“Don’t let them see.

“Be the good girl you always have to be.

“Conceal. Don’t feel.

“Put on a show.

“Make one wrong move and everyone will know.

“But it’s only for today.

“It’s agony to wait.

“Tell the guards to open up the gate.”

Today was Elsa’s coronation day. The castle was opened to welcome guests from different nations. The two sisters were also finally going to meet again.

…

Shenzhen.

In a theater.

The manager came to check up on the employees and was dumbfounded. “Where is everyone? Where is all the staff?”

The female employee at the box office mumbled, “Um…”

The manager said in shock, “Where’s the security? The ticket collectors? Why aren’t they at their posts?”

The female employee coughed and pointed to one of the theater halls on the inside.

The manager ran over and saw the doors of the theater hall for Frozen open. Around eight theater employees had gathered here and were staring at the silver screen on the inside. They had actually abandoned their work and come over to watch Zhang Ye’s movie.

The manager was disgusted. “Is it good?”

One of the employees did not even turn their heads and just replied subconsciously, “It’s super great!”

Another employee remarked, “Everyone, scooch a little so that we can make room for another spot.”

Another person said, “Shh, be quiet, it’s getting exciting!”

“Ah!”

“Manager!”

“W-Why are you here?”

Everyone realized it at this moment and started panicking.

The manager said angrily, “Get back to your posts! If you all want to watch Teacher Zhang’s movie, buy tickets and watch it during your off days!”

“OK.”

“Got it!”

Everyone immediately dispersed.

After the manager chased them off, he felt a little puzzled. Wasn’t it just an animated film? Weren’t such movies only used for placating children? Was it really that good? As such, he also stood there curiously and watched.

…

Shanghai.

At a theater booked by celebrities.

Xu Meilan sighed and said, “It’s really Old Zhang’s voice.”

Fan Wenli said emotionally, “Sister Zhang is still as good as ever.”

“It was really sung well,” Jiang Hanwei also said with emotion.

Director Li Ke said, “Whoever said that animated films are only for children?”

Xu Meilan smiled and said, “This movie of his should be suitable for children and adults alike, right?”

Another director said in surprise, “This new movie by Director Zhang is quite stunning.”

Yet another director said, “The pacing of the movie is very good, the visuals are great, and the plot is so enjoyable. It’s making me want to make an animated film as well!”

“Old Li, any guesses on the box office earnings?”

“I can’t say for now.”

“Why?”

“The movie is still lacking something, something explosive.”

“Yeah, I’m also waiting for that.”

…

On the silver screen.

Anna met her “Prince Charming” and fell in love at first sight. Elsa was officially crowned queen, and the coronation ceremony was going smoothly. No one realized that she had magical powers. Everything seemed like it was going on track, and it looked like the two sisters were going to resume their previous relationship and return to the lives they had before.

But at this moment, an accident happened.

Elsa couldn’t keep her secret hidden as her powers eventually got revealed.

“Ah!”

“Sorcery!”

“Elsa?”

“Stop her!”

“Monster! Monster!”

During the chase, Elsa ran away.

The story turned tense.

In the snowy mountains, it was wasteland all around.

Elsa was walking in the cold wind by herself. She was sad and full of despair.

Music played. The sound of the piano filled the land.

“The snow glows white on the mountain tonight.

“Not a footprint to be seen.

“A kingdom of isolation.

“And it looks like I’m the queen.”

…

At this moment.

Elsa’s voice and Zhang Yuanqi’s singing resounded around the world!

Countless people were listening in shock.

“The wind is howling like this swirling storm inside.

“Couldn’t keep it in.

“Heaven knows I tried.

“Don’t let them in, don’t let them see.

“Be the good girl you always have to be.

“Conceal, don’t feel.

“Don’t let them know.

“Well, now they know.”

The music suddenly turned cheerful!

The scene’s mood switched!

One by one, Elsa’s magical powers were unfurling from her hands. She no longer had any concerns nor any fear. She wasn’t going to hide anymore!

Elsa smiled and sang loudly.

“Let it go! Let it go!

“Can’t hold it back anymore.

“Let it go! Let it go!

“Turn away and slam the door.

“I don’t care what they’re going to say.

“Let the storm rage on.

“The cold never bothered me anyway!

“It’s funny how some distance / makes everything seem small.

“And the fears that once controlled me / can’t get to me at all.

“It’s time to see what I can do / to test the limits and break through.

“No right, no wrong, no rules for me.

“I’m free!

“Let it go! Let it go!

“I am one with the wind and sky!

“Let it go! Let it go!”

Elsa’s sadness, pain, and joy, all of it was unleashed at this moment!

…

The Netherlands.

There were screams in the theater.

“Ah!”

“Heavens!”

“This song—”

…

Japan.

“Heavens!”

“I’m getting goosebumps!”

“Me too!”

…

Korea.

“So cool!”

“Th-This is so good!”

“Who’s singing this?”

“Former Asian Heavenly Queen Zhang Yuanqi!”

…

Beijing.

At a theater.

Zhang Yuanqi’s parents were looking at the screen and listening to the song. For some reason, they started crying.

In their eyes, Elsa had turned in to Zhang Yuanqi. The two of them were incredibly similar. They were almost exactly the same!

Zhang Yuanqi’s cousin, Ma Fei, understood in this moment why Zhang Ye insisted on getting Zhang Yuanqi to sing this song no matter what. Perhaps this song could only be sung by Zhang Yuanqi. Perhaps, she was the only person who could perform it well!

…

England.

“Who is this!”

“Her singing is wonderful!”

“China’s got a singer like that?”

“How impressive!”

…

Shanghai.

At the celebrity-booked theater.

Many of the celebrities and directors were shocked!

Li Ke slapped his thigh and said, “Bravo!”

Another director sighed and said, “This singing, there’s absolutely no fucking way to describe it!”

“It’s alive! This character has been brought to life!”

“Sister Zhang is still the Sister Zhang we knew!”

…

Hollywood.

“How is this possible!”

“A Chinese guy can actually write a song like this?”

“A Chinese guy can actually make a movie like this?”

“I’m going crazy!”

“Th-This is such a good movie!”

“So this is a musical film? Music can be incorporated into a movie so beautifully?”

…

“Let It Go” had shocked the world!

“Let It Go” had given the movie a breakout point!

At this moment, countless moviegoers in theaters all over the world were dumbfounded and couldn’t speak!
