Before the end of the second unit of "Weapons", no one would have thought that an unpromoted unit drama with a second-rate director, third-rate investment, and a mediocre team could actually attract so much attention.

Although Shen Huai, the director of "Weapons", has been in the industry for many years and has strong professional skills, due to his strong desire to control the crew, the "nouveau riche style" investors who are now pouring money in cannot adapt to his style at all, so that "Weapons" did not attract much investment.

Rather than saying that the crew of "Weapons" was aloof and unwilling to promote the film, it would be better to say that Shenhuai spent most of its investment on production, leaving almost no money for promotion.

So much so that after seeing that "Weapons" was on 5 of the top 10 hot searches, director Shen Huai and the producer immediately called.

After the call was connected, the people on both sides said in unison:

“Did you buy the trending search?”

“Do we actually still have money to buy trending searches?”

After these two sentences came out, both of them paused suddenly.

"I thought you bought it!"

After the misunderstanding, the two finally figured out that these trending searches were indeed generated by natural popularity.

For a moment, the producer, who was accustomed to seeing marketing tactics, couldn't help but marvel at it: "It turns out that Starlight Blog's trending searches can really be boosted by organic popularity..."

"I'll tell you what I'm saying," Director Shen Huai said leisurely. "A good blacksmith must be strong himself, and good wine needs no bush. Truly good works don't need marketing."

On the other end of the phone, the producer was silent for a moment.

"There's a trending search term bought by another crew, 'So-and-so's acting is amazing,' and it's about to surpass ours..."

Shen Huai, who had just been saying "no need for marketing," took a look at the trending clip and immediately slammed the table and said, "What are you waiting for! Keep the trending search stable!"

The producer laughed: "Didn't you just say that you didn't need marketing?"

"But..." Director Shen Huai said seriously, "It's so embarrassing to be surpassed by such a trending search."

"……Too."

Netizens are not blind either.

After seeing the second trending search, except for the fans of someone, other netizens silently bypassed the second entry.

Why would I watch this kind of outrageous "actor" instead of watching actors with real acting skills...?

[Hot Knowledge: Really amazing acting skills, no need to buy trending searches, we have eyes to see it]

[There's really nothing much to brag about...]

[Honestly, if you want to be a vase, just be an honest vase and don't take on complicated roles. We'll just turn a blind eye and let it go... Now you have no acting skills and you're still bragging. Who can tolerate that?]

[I only accept vases as beautiful as Yan Chaochao. Not everyone can be a vase! ]

[Objection! Who said Yan Chaochao was just a pretty face? Cui Yefei is almost crying my heart out, my Feifei 5555555]

[Indeed, before Cui Yefei appeared, it would have been fine to see people calling Yan Chaochao a vase. But after seeing Cui Yefei, anyone who still calls Yan Chaochao a vase is simply blind!]

After the second unit of "Weapons" ended, although Yu Yingyi was the first character to appear, all the audiences who watched the second unit agreed that Cui Yefei played by Yan Chaochao was the real protagonist of the second unit.

From his appearance under the moonlight, to his high-spirited expression in the middle, to his death in the cave after the ultimate reversal in the last 10 minutes.

The character of Cui Yefei has been extremely mysterious since his debut, and he left the audience with a huge suspense until the end of the unit drama.

Is Cui Yefei dead?

Under the trending search #Is Cui Yefei dead?#, netizens were divided into two camps and argued endlessly.

Some netizens firmly believe that Cui Yefei died in the cave, and that someone else might have committed the crime.

Cui Yefei has never been one to act purely on rationality, otherwise she wouldn't have insisted on doing these things even after knowing the problems that killing these people would bring her. Many people say that Cui Yefei wouldn't voluntarily die, but in my opinion, it was Cui Yefei's idealism that determined her actions and determined that at the last moment, she would not escape her own fate.

I agree. I think Cui Yefei's eventual death was inevitable. It wasn't because she couldn't escape, but in that situation, if she escaped, it would have seemed like she was surrendering to the injustice of the world... If you look closely, you'll notice that even at the moment the knife pierced her heart, Cui Yefei held her head high.

[!!! The part where he looks up is so detailed. I rewatched it and realized that Cui Yefei is really looking up.]

[Speaking of which… although it’s a pity, I feel that Cui Yefei’s death is a very reasonable ending.]

[So the case after Cui Yefei's death might have been a copycat crime?]

Does anyone else think that Yu Yingyi’s reaction in the last paragraph was quite subtle…?

Another group of netizens clearly opposed these views.

Many people say Cui Yefei is idealistic, but I don't completely agree. Cui Yefei is a person with a simple sense of morality, so she naturally believes that "debts must be paid, and murder must be punished." If she does something that seriously harms others, she naturally needs to be punished.

But many people may overlook that Cui Yefei is also a smart and thoughtful person. This can be seen from her repeated diversion of Yu Yingyi's attention and the disruption of the investigation process at key points. Would such a person simply die? I don't think so.

Many people think the final twist in the cave was accidental, but a closer look reveals that Cui Yefei had directed the detectives to this cave. Given this, would Cui Yefei have made such an outrageous mistake as not calculating the drug's coverage area?

[It's terrifying to think about it. If you think about it this way, perhaps the trip to the cave was Cui Yefei's plan from the beginning!]

If Cui Yefei hadn't died, then the trip to the cave would have been a perfect escape! Not only did he fake his death to escape the authorities' pursuit, but his changed identity also made it easier for Cui Yefei to act as a private individual...

[Hiss—I’m getting goosebumps.]

But no matter what opinions netizens hold, it does not affect the rapid rise in popularity of "Weapons Chronicle", and the number of fans of Yan Chaochao's Starlight Blog is also soaring at a terrifying rate.

Amid such popularity, as soon as Yan Chaochao started the live broadcast, countless netizens received prompts and clicked into her live broadcast room.

Even netizens who did not follow Yan Chaochao were attracted into Yan Chaochao's live broadcast room due to the word-of-mouth spread from one person to ten, and from ten to a hundred.

Netizens who clicked into the live broadcast room did not see Yan Chaochao's face. Instead, they saw a slightly familiar scene.

[This scene seems familiar...]

[Why do I feel like I've seen this scene somewhere...]

[!!! Have you forgotten? This scene is exactly the same as the location of the first case in the second unit of "Weapons of War"! It's just simplified a lot.]

[Shit! Now that I mention it, I have an impression!]

"Gudong..."

The sound of drinking water came from the screen. After the sound, there was another rustling sound. A small window appeared in the lower right corner, and Yan Chaochao appeared in front of the small window.

She adjusted the lens with her hands: "Is this okay? Can you see it?"

【Can! 】

【Fei Fei, kiss~】

[Why did you suddenly start live streaming today? 】

Barrages of comments kept flashing across the live broadcast room. Yan Chaozhao interacted with the comments while waiting for the game to load.

【Have you been happy recently? 】

"I'm quite happy. Because there is not much work."

[How are you preparing for the Chinese New Year? ]

"I'll spend it at home."

【Not attending the New Year's Eve party? 】

"No, because I want to celebrate the New Year at home. If I go to the New Year's Eve party, I won't even be able to eat hot food."

Why do you want to live stream?

"Because my agent said Cui Yefei is quite popular recently, and asked me to take advantage of him."

How dare you! You actually try to ride on the popularity of our superstar Cui Yefei! (dog head)

【Hahahahahahaha, this is the first time I've heard of someone trying to ride on their own popularity! 】

[My agent is so miserable. I planned everything so well for you, but you actually blew yourself up!]

[I’m dying of laughter, Silly Chaochao, there are some things you shouldn’t say in the live broadcast room! ! ! ]

The live broadcast room was not filled with laughter. As more and more people came in, the comments in the room began to become mixed.

After the second unit of "Weapons" was broadcast, although Cui Yefei was widely discussed, the voices surrounding this character were not all positive.

In addition to those who like Cui Yefei's character online and believe that although she uses violence to fight violence, her original intention is good, some viewers also dislike Cui Yefei's character, or have developed a rebellious mentality because of the online praise for Cui Yefei.

Netizens who dislike Cui Yefei's character think that if these scumbags were to be punished, they could have chosen the most reasonable method, rather than simply fighting violence with violence. Although this may seem cool in a unit drama, it actually doesn't stand up to scrutiny.

Soon, a lot of provocative comments appeared in the live broadcast room.

[Yan Chaochao, what do you think of Cui Yefei's murder? ]

[Do you think Cui Yefei's actions really helped others? ]

[In a sense, Cui Yefei is just another executioner, no different in essence from these scumbags]

Seeing these barrages, the audience in the live broadcast room who liked Cui Yefei were so angry that they almost jumped up and wanted to fight with the other side with the barrages.

But after seeing these comments, Yan Chaochao was not angry, but nodded instead.

"In a sense, Cui Yefei really didn't help them."

Even the comments that were looking for trouble were confused by Yan Chaozhao's answer, and a series of ellipsis marks floated across the screen in an instant.

Yan Chaochao then said the second half of the sentence: "If these scumbags hadn't interfered, they should have been walking on the road of light and not have to suffer such hardships."

After hearing Yan Chaochao's answer, the people who were stirring up trouble in the live broadcast room immediately became excited, as if they had caught Yan Chaochao's weakness.

[So, do you think it was right for Cui Yefei to kill people? ]

"I can't say Cui Yefei's behavior is right. She will eventually bear the consequences she deserves."

"But facing these scumbags, I just want to say..."

Yan Chaozhao raised the corner of her mouth elegantly and spoke politely: "May all the scum in the world turn into ashes."
