Chapter 85
As a child with more free time than the average elementary school student, Dudu's treatment is divided into two parts: medication and sports rehabilitation therapy in reality, and bioelectric therapy in the sleeping cabin.
The former is more painful and takes a long time, while the latter is simple and is purely about playing games.
Otherwise, how could such a kid become a famous boss in "Youxiaer"? In addition to his extraordinary talent, there is another important reason, which is that he has been online for a long time.
Although other patients have similar treatment steps, they generally do not stare at one game and play it all the time. They also watch movies online and go shopping from time to time, and time passes by quickly.
Unlike Lin Deer, except for the study time set by his parents, he spent all his gaming time on "Youxiaer". Some people even jokingly said that this guy was just like a fixed NPC in the game and they rarely saw him go offline.
Young Master Qian took a look at the annoying ID that was online, and at the same time, he confirmed again with regret that the beauty he wanted to pursue was not online again.
This beauty looks pretty cool. If she had such an awesome account, she would definitely come here to show off every day and would not stop until she had outshined other players.
Rather than coveting the mysterious background of management number 001, it would be more accurate to say that Mr. Qian was actually more greedy for that number.
If Wanxiang Interactive's game did not allow the buying and selling of game accounts, he would definitely spend a large sum of money to buy that account, and then hang around Monk Lin every day, even if he had to dress up as a woman.
Young Master Qian was thinking about that number all day long, and he was even a little sick with worry. He finally couldn't bear it anymore, and ran to the Demon Realm, and took the initiative to block Monk Lin, wanting to find out when the girl would come online.
Although Lin Deer is a young boy, he is very smart. He knew what Mr. Qian was planning as soon as he heard it. However, he looked up and down at this famous rich second-generation in the game.
He is average looking and not very smart, his only advantage is that he is rich, but his aunt can still beat him in this regard.
Anyway, up to now, whether in real life or on TV, Dudu has never met anyone richer than his aunt.
So, who gave him the confidence to think he was qualified to pursue his aunt?
Although Lin Deer was a weak and well-behaved kid in the three-dimensional world, he was a real hot-tempered person in the game. Without saying a word, he picked up a stick and started beating people, just like Sun Wukong fighting against shrimp soldiers and crab generals. With one sweep of the stick, he didn't care whether the Prime Minister Turtle or the Third Prince was all wiped out by him and skinned and boned.
When the white light of resurrection appeared on Mr. Qian's body, the boy suddenly remembered that the protagonist of this scene seemed to be Nezha...
Hey, who cares? Just kill him.
Lin Deer didn't feel any psychological burden at all. He put the stick on his shoulder and went to kill monsters with a proud look on his face.
Mr. Qian returned to the teleportation point inexplicably, and before he had time to get angry, he suddenly found that the ID he had been using to control the talisman was finally online.
He suddenly started to tremble, changed into his most gorgeous clothes, and rushed to the location of the ID.
Xue Mi had not intended to go online today, but her sister-in-law had to go on a business trip for the next two days, so she asked her to keep an eye on Dudu when she had time, lest that kid, when no one was watching him, would become like a flying turtle, wishing he could stay in the game for 24 hours without coming out.
"He has recovered well. His father and I were considering sending him back to school. But as soon as we told him about this, the brat was very resistant, but refused to explain why he didn't want to go. His father and I were so worried..." My cousin's wife's face really looked like she was about to suffer from a bitter gourd.
After all, Dudu has been away from school for two years. It is normal for him to have a little temper and be a little worried and afraid. The key is whether he can make a smooth transition and adapt to the school environment as soon as possible.
"I originally wanted to let him go to grade six and study for a year, but the boy didn't want to, saying that would mean he would be a repeater. Now there's nothing we can do but let him complete his six years of knowledge as soon as possible and prepare for junior high school." Although my cousin was still frowning when she talked about these things, compared to the desperate numbness before, even though she was worried, she seemed full of hope.
Seeing children healthy is a happy thing even if you are worried about their studies.
Of course, the premise is that this naughty kid doesn't do anything too reckless.
If you want to wake up the person in the sleeping cabin, you can actually use the wake-up button on the machine. The machine will remind the user that someone is looking for him outside and ask him whether he wants to exit.
However, the eldest aunt called and said that she had pressed the button several times, but Dudu didn't respond. She didn't dare to force the child to go offline for fear of something going wrong, so she had to come to Xue Mi.
Xue Mi could guess with her heels that this naughty child must be pretending not to hear it on purpose, wanting to play for a while longer while his parents are away.
So she logged into the game to catch the child.
Unexpectedly, before catching the child, he was entangled by a crazy guy.
Last time, this guy kept using skills to attack me, but this time, he came over like a pug, calling me sister and trying his best to get close to me.
Xue Mi: ...This guy is so annoying!
However, as long as he doesn't attack her, Xue Mi won't be able to attack him. Young Master Qian deliberately used this bug to make his presence felt in front of the rich woman.
Unfortunately, so far, the only sense of existence of this person in Xue Mi's eyes is that he looks like an annoying green-headed fly. He is huge in size, and the buzzing sound of his wings is even more unacceptable.
I've been annoyed by the fly for nearly 10 minutes. I've ordered it to leave several times, but this guy seems to not understand what I'm saying and keeps pretending to be stupid.
It’s a pity that his level of pretending to be stupid is not even comparable to that of his nephew who hasn’t even entered junior high school.
Xue Mi finally couldn't bear it anymore.
Just because you can't actively attack doesn't mean you have no way to deal with flies.
For example, right now, what I need may be a fly swatter.
Xue Mi glanced at this guy, making sure that this sticky man would never back down, and finally activated her only skill: summoning strange beasts.
It's an managed account after all. Even if restrictions are imposed for the sake of fairness, it's impossible for it to have no special features.
The skill of summoning strange beasts is very simple. It directly summons the strongest boss on the current map and makes the boss temporarily become your mount. It is not only convenient for traveling, but also can deter other players.
Xue Mi actually doesn’t like to use this skill - mainly because the shadow left by the past is too big.
She has not played this game much and is not very familiar with the bosses in each map. As a result, the effects of her skills are relatively random. If she is lucky, she might be able to summon a handsome unicorn. If she is unlucky, a super boss covered in pus might jump out. Just one more look at it can leave a deep psychological trauma on people.
But this was not the most disgusting thing. There was another time when a big slug crawled out directly from the soil, and hundreds or even thousands of tentacles were fluttering in the air. Xue Mi felt that she would never forget that scene in her life.
Shadow, absolutely an extremely terrifying shadow!
If it weren’t for the fly in front of her... Xue Mi looked at the guy with disdain again, but ended up being mistakenly believed by this confident guy that his handsomeness finally won the girl’s heart... Bah! Get away from here!
Then, the skill was officially activated, the countdown bar jumped rapidly, and there was a response after a while.
Suddenly a blue cloud floated over from the distance, bringing with it increasingly faster winds.
Xue Mi looked carefully and found that the blue cloud floating over turned out to be a big blue bull with curved horns. It was muscular all over and ran fast and steadily. It was obviously a good mount.
The spacious cow's back is the most comfortable to sit on! Xue Mi thought happily.
This time, she was lucky.
Xue Mi smiled happily at the big blue ox, but Master Qian suddenly became nervous.
How come this difficult to deal with King Kong Demon Bull King suddenly came here? !
This thing is a bully near Daqing Mountain in the Demon Realm. It has high defense and attack, and will go on a blood-bursting rage at any time. Even with a small team, it is difficult to deal with it. Now I am alone, and I am just a piece of cake.
This thing has witnessed the humiliation of countless players, and it is nicknamed the Bull Demon King. Except for a few stronger players who still want to try to challenge it, the others all flee, running as far as they can to avoid dying accidentally and losing a lot of durability and the experience points they have worked so hard to gain.
Although Master Qian is a rogue, he still has some self-awareness. When he saw this thing, his first reaction was to escape. However, considering that there was a cute little beauty next to him, even though his toes had already turned to the direction of escape, he still did not forget to pretend and told the little beauty that this thing was quite dangerous and asked if she wanted to hide with him.
Xue Mi glanced at him as if she was looking at a complete fool.
As expected, flies don’t have very high IQs. Their only weakness is the noise they make.
Only then did Mr. Qian realize that the reason he wanted to seduce this little beauty was because her account was in invincible mode, which was super awesome.
Before he could say anything, the Bull Demon King rushed straight towards him. Without even waiting for Young Master Qian to open his mouth, it kicked hard with its two front hooves and kicked the rich second generation with good equipment but poor operation skills almost back to the resurrection point again.
Young Master Qian hurriedly retreated, took out his weapon, and was about to take a defensive posture, but something that shocked him happened again: the Bull Demon King, who had just abused him like an animal, was now kneeling on his front paws respectfully and lying on the ground. He waited until the mysterious rich woman sat on his back before he stood up again and blew a fierce breath at Young Master Qian who was standing there in a daze.
Mr. Qian: I’m even more envious.
He decided to go over and try to get close to the handsome Bull Demon King, hoping that he could give him a back door the next time he formed a team to fight the Bull Demon King.
Unfortunately, before he could express his envy in words, the pair of iron hooves once again trampled the unknown creature in front of him. This time, it finally trampled Mr. Qian, who was already half dead, back to the resurrection point, without even giving him time to say a word.
Young Master Qian returned to the familiar resurrection point again and began to completely doubt his life.
However, what made him doubt his life the most was not that he was easily killed by his mortal enemy, nor that he was trampled to death by a cow in front of a beautiful woman, but that the scene of him being trampled to death by the cow was not only seen by others, but also posted on the Internet, receiving the ridicule of the majority of netizens.
Is this a way to kill people?
The topic about a pretentious president in the fairy world who died tragically under the hooves of a cow quickly became a hot topic on websites and forums related to "Youxiaer".
Everyone is used to the various weird things that the second-generation rich who only know how to spend money do. But this time, what makes people most curious is the origin of the mysterious No. 001.
"She can actually use the Bull Demon King as a mount! Just thinking about how my teammates and I were tortured to death by this thing a few days ago, I can't help but doubt my life in pain."
"This should be a natural attribute of this account. It can even tame bosses. Doesn't this have a huge impact on the balance of the game?"
"As long as you don't get horny like Mr. Qian, it shouldn't have any effect."
"Because it turns into meat pie when spring comes, it is called spring pie for short."
"I have saved Mr. Qian's spring pancake photo. This one will make me laugh for a whole year."
Everyone below laughed loudly. It was obvious that everyone was happy to see Mr. Qian's unlucky look.
Mr. Qian: ...I have become autistic and don’t want to go online in the past month!
Amidst the singing, laughter and banter, Xue Mi finally caught the naughty kid. She grabbed the boy's ear and told him to get off the Internet immediately and do his homework.
This scene was accidentally seen by members of the Self-Help Alliance for Bedridden People and another group of players who were working together to kill monsters.
He just sat on the Bull Demon King and crushed the president of a big guild to death, then turned around and grabbed another president's ear and scolded him like a grandson. The president who lived online for many years actually went offline obediently!
In everyone's eyes, the fashion sense of this mysterious girl in white has skyrocketed again, and she is even about to surpass Lin De'er, who has always been recognized as the strongest player in the game.
After all, that guy can treat Lin Deer like his grandson!
Lin Deer, who had degenerated from a great player to a grandson, was pulled by the ear by his aunt and reluctantly went offline to attend offline classes.
He was quite unhappy: "My mom is wasting money. There are all kinds of courses in the virtual university, and it doesn't cost much. If I want to take a course, I can just go and take it. Why bother to find me a teacher offline? It's expensive and useless."
"Your mother just wants you to interact more with real people," Xue Mi tapped the boy's head, "Stop talking nonsense and catch up on your missed lessons. I'm sure you want to go back to school earlier."
"Sorry, I don't want to at all." Lin Deer sighed loudly, and finally logged off obediently and went to class.
After several years of treatment, his condition has improved a lot. Although his running and jumping movements are still not so smooth, he can walk on his own.
The pitiful skinny look he had when he first came here is gone, replaced by a little boy who looks like he has gained weight on his face and body, has a rosy complexion, and is full of energy. He is only slightly shorter than the average height of his peers and a little thin.
Seeing that the child's condition was almost recovered, as traditional Chinese parents, my brother and sister-in-law's first thought was definitely to let the child return to school as soon as possible.
Even if they insist on taking online classes, it won’t work. Not to mention the study issue, the couple always feel that the child is too withdrawn, spending all day playing games, and has no friends of the same age. They are worried that he will have mental problems in the future.
Xue Mi felt that this anxiety was totally unnecessary: after all, a little boy who had just turned 12 years old was capable of commanding a group of adults around. His mentality was much better than that of ordinary children of the same age.
Of course, even if you don’t worry about this, it’s also good to make some friends of the same age. Xue Mi also feels that at this age, it’s definitely better to stay in school.
Little Lin Jiashu was kicked off the class by his aunt. He could only look at the boring college student tutor with a helpless look on his face and began his painful tutoring career.
After all, I have been suspended from classes for such a long time. Although I have never stopped learning, my foundation is still not solid. It is really difficult to catch up again.
In comparison, the world in the game is much simpler. No wonder this child always has a fear of difficulties and wants to escape.
The tutor was a top student at a key university. He knew that the kid had been out of school for a long time due to illness and felt quite sympathetic towards him. So even though he didn't cooperate very well, he continued to coax him patiently and kept telling him interesting things about college.
Lin Jiashu didn't react much to other things, but when he heard about Wanxiang Interactive's virtual reality game, he couldn't help but prick up his ears.
"There's a gaming club in college?" His eyes lit up. "Is there anyone playing Youxia?"
"Of course," the tutor said with a smile, "Why, you are also playing this game? I have been playing it recently too, I will add you as my friend when the time comes."
"I've been playing for a long time," the little guy said with a reserved look, "I'll play with you after we add each other as friends."
"Okay," the tutor said, "You've been playing for a long time, so your level must be much higher than mine. Then I'll go and hug you in the game, but you must teach me."
The little guy's originally guarded expression finally relaxed slowly.
"The Wanxiang Interactive game is really awesome," the tutor continued, seeing that this topic had opened the door. "Don't underestimate it as a cultivation game with gods and demons. In fact, many details in the game completely follow the physical laws of reality. If you can master these laws, you can be much more accurate when releasing skills."
Then he brought up the example of leaves falling to the ground in the game and began to discuss it seriously with the children.
Lin Dudu is actually not a bad brain - otherwise he wouldn't be able to dominate the game - and once he really let down his guard, his learning efficiency improved all of a sudden. And I heard that not only in college, but there should be quite a few kids in junior high school who play "You Xia Er", so his expectations for school finally rose.
Xue Mi heard from her sister-in-law that Lin Dudu's academic performance had improved a lot recently and he was not so resistant to going back to school, so she finally put her mind at ease.
At the same time, a research institute she has been funding finally had good news: the institute had made a breakthrough in the disease-causing gene that she and Lin Dudu carried, and finally figured out the pathogenic mechanism of the gene. All that remained was to screen suitable compounds in the hope of finding a useful specific drug.
However, this step is even more complicated and difficult than the previous one, and there is also a certain element of luck. After all, there are thousands of similar compounds, and it is not easy to find a compound that can not only cure diseases but also has no strong toxic side effects on the human body.
Xue Mi, an outsider, had no idea about this. The only thing he could do was to spend money, and continue to spend money, hoping that the researcher would suddenly get lucky and come across the target he was looking for.
Because this goal is too far away, Xue Mi doesn't have much hope for the time being. She just regards it as a long-term investment.
After all, even if a suitable compound is found, drug experiments still need to be started, including Phase 1, Phase 2, Phase 3, and various clinical observations. By then, more time and money will be required.
Although technology is advanced nowadays, it is still weak and vulnerable to many diseases.
Xue Mi only hopes that before she dies, she will have the opportunity to see this - or several - drug interviews.
On the other hand, Miao Miao’s second work is finally about to be adapted into a film. The director is a familiar face, Song Zhiyan, who made a complete comeback with a comedy film.
Xue Mi was a little confused as to how these two people got together, but after taking a look at the notebook, she suddenly understood.
This is a light family comedy - the family affection aspect belongs to Miao Miao's comfort zone, and the comedy aspect is Song Zhiyan's strong point. When these two people get together, maybe they can create a new phenomenal movie.
Even though she has become a well-known screenwriter, Miaomiao is still quiet and a little shy. She obviously prefers to express her world with a pen rather than with her mouth.
In contrast to his screenwriter, Song Zhiyan used to be a social bully, but now he is almost evolving into a social terrorist. He is so skilled at begging for alms that he does not stumble at all.
Xue Mi didn't understand: "Didn't you make a lot of money from your previous movie? If you want to make it, just invest in it yourself. Are you still short of money?"
"That's different," Song Zhiyan said superstitiously, "Boss, you have better fortune. I feel more at ease with you as the main investor."
In fact, with his current fame, the performance of his previous film, and the joining of the most anticipated new screenwriter, it would only take a few minutes for him to attract investment.
But for Song Zhiyan, is it a matter of money?
Of course not!
This guy has a face like someone in an idol drama, but he's as superstitious as a greasy middle-aged man.
Maybe it was because he had failed so many times in the past that he always had a sense of unknown destiny. At this time, his idea was very simple, which was to take advantage of the boss's wealth!
As we all know, the young and handsome Boss Xue has almost become a weather vane in the investment circle in recent years. All the new industries that have taken off suddenly in the past few years are related to Boss Xue.
He won't talk about other industries for now. The domestic box office dark horse for two consecutive years and the highly anticipated blockbusters are all related to Xue Mi. Based on this point alone, he must get this investment no matter what.
Song Zhiyan even feels that some projects that have not taken off are not because they do not have the qualifications to take off. The key problem is that they have not established a good relationship with the God of Wealth and have not been able to take advantage of the wealth of the big sponsors.
Xue Mi curled her lips in disdain at this guy's weird look, and said that she would read the script first before deciding whether to invest or not.
You can spend money casually, but you must be cautious when investing - this is Xue Mi's basic principle in life.
As a result, she fell in love with the script at first sight.
This matter has nothing to do with Song Zhiyan. It’s mainly about Miaomiao’s story, and she gets along particularly well with Xue Mi.
This movie is another low-budget production, and still there are no expensive stars joining. And this time, Song Zhiyan himself is not going to act in it. The leading actors have all become unknown. Looking at it, it is completely contrary to the most popular all-star lineup and fan economy.
The entire storyline is relatively simple and lighthearted, especially in the hands of Song Zhiyan, whose main goal is to make the audience laugh.
Very simple and direct, just like his previous film.
But this time, because the screenwriter is a little different, it seems that there is a little bit of something else added to the purely funny style.
Xue Mi savored the script and got a little taste of it. Finally, for Miao Miao's sake, she agreed to invest 5 million and became the largest shareholder of the film.
She was worried that Miaomiao would be fooled by this cunning Abacus Bead, and was planning to drag Miaomiao to invest together. Unexpectedly, the other party had already invested based on the script. Finally, Xue Mi began to look at this cunning Abacus Bead with a new respect.
Of course, it's only a little bit. The main reason is that this guy is really annoying. He is as noisy as a green frog, and he keeps croaking all the time.
After sending the abacus beads away, Xue Mi took Miao Miao to have a beauty spa together and enjoyed a deep massage with essential oils.
She used to think that this thing was just a waste of money for rich ladies and was completely useless. But after really enjoying it, she found that even if there was nothing, she was willing to spend money just for the on-site experience.
For rich women, there is no such thing as an IQ tax or not - they have endless money to spend, and caring about this is really a waste of time.
Miaomiao was lying on the chair next to her. She couldn't help but hum because of the beautician's technique. Her face turned red quickly and she closed her mouth tightly.
"It's okay, there's no one else here anyway. When I pressed it for the first time, my reaction was even bigger than yours." Xue Mi said with a smile.
After being pressed for a while, Miaomiao finally couldn't help asking the boss: "Do you think my notebook is really okay? I'm always a little worried."
The girl has a down-to-earth personality, but she is a little too down-to-earth. Even though she has won a lot of honors, she always feels that she will soon be exposed, so she is always trembling with fear.
Even this time of cooperation, she was flattered.
"It's obvious that the abacus bead took advantage of you," Xue Mi snorted disdainfully, "Don't worry, my intuition tells me that this time there might be another big surprise."
Swearing by the blood of the ancient witch, Xue Mi felt that her intuition was quite accurate.
Miaomiao also felt that the boss did have some metaphysical knowledge, and finally became a little more confident.
As expected, things did not go beyond Xue Mi's expectations.
After the film was completed, as an important investor, she was the first to see the newly edited original film.
This is a very happy movie. I laughed so hard while watching it that I couldn't stop for a moment.
But it is different from ordinary comedy movies. With some comedies, you just stop watching after you finish laughing, and you can't even remember the plot.
After watching this movie, I don’t know why, but I still can’t get over it.
Those ordinary little people and those little things have been lingering in my mind for a long time.
In other words, there is plenty of potential.
This time, this new movie chose the popular summer season to compete with several popular blockbusters.
Unlike the much-anticipated Spring Festival period, the summer period may not have that kind of concentrated and large-scale box office explosion, but relatively speaking, it is longer and can accommodate more movies. Most importantly, this is a period where word of mouth is king. As long as the quality of the movie is good enough and there are enough people willing to promote it, it will be successful.
The movie chose to premiere in early July. As a family movie with a low threshold of entry, and with Song Zhiyan's name as a guarantee, the movie has attracted a lot of attention as soon as it entered the promotion period.
Of course there are also many haters.
Although comedy films have a wide audience, they are naturally inferior to other genres in the eyes of many people in the film industry. It is even more difficult for them to gain recognition, and winning major awards is even more difficult.
There was even a saying at foreign film festivals in the past: If you want to win an award, it’s best not to make the judges laugh, but to make them cry.
The louder you cry, the easier it is to win a prize.
Song Zhiyan disagrees with this. He doesn't have high aspirations and his dreams are quite down to earth. He just wants to make a few movies that will make people laugh many years later, make a lot of money and live the rest of his life comfortably.
As for whether or not to win the award, it is not part of his life plan. Winning it is a good thing, but not getting it doesn’t matter.
For a commercial film director, there is only one thing that matters most, and that is the box office.
Miaomiao was also very nervous when she was chasing the box office on the first day.
As a semi-newcomer with only one work before, she actually always felt that she had little to do with the entertainment industry. There was just a slight intersection at work, and that was it.
Later, when she became familiar with Song Zhiyan, she felt that this man didn't look like a big star at all - no, no, now he should be called a big director.
All in all, although the director has the face of an idol star, he is actually quite kind and friendly. He does not have the scary temper as the legend says. Instead, he is surprisingly easy-going.
Although she is easy-going, Miaomiao is still a little unconfident about her new work.
After all, it is different from the previous one. She spent many years carefully polishing that one, making it look like a piece of warm jade, with a luster that has been accumulated over time.
However, this one took only two years from the beginning of creation to the finalization. Such a short time made her feel uneasy, fearing that the quality of her script was not good enough and would drag down the entire crew.
"I'm not worried, so why are you worried?" Song Zhiyan tried to comfort the young screenwriter who always seemed unconfident. "Besides, if the movie is not successful, I will be the one to blame. It has nothing to do with you."
Miaomiao didn't say anything, but her eyes were still fixed on her phone, repeatedly checking the real-time box office.
The movie will be officially released at 6pm today, and it's still noon now, but Miaomiao is already muttering in panic, wondering why the data is increasing so slowly.
"Don't worry," Song Zhiyan said as he poured himself a small glass of red wine. Normally, he would not drink at all, but he was pretty close. But now he couldn't help but drink a glass of wine to relax. "It's still early. The movie hasn't been officially released yet. It's normal to run a little slower."
Another idiot in the crew directly brought out previous data at this time, proving that previous movies of the same type as theirs had such and such an increase on the premiere day, and such and such curve in the later period. In comparison, their box office was indeed growing quite slowly.
After saying this, not only did Miaomiao seem more nervous, but Song Zhiyan couldn't help but move his butt and glared at the staff member who said the discouraging words.
On the eve of a great war, anyone who undermines the morale of the army shall be executed!
The director waved his hand, signaling others to punish the guy who was talking nonsense and cut off his tongue!
The people present immediately started to make a noise, but after the laughter, the tense atmosphere was relieved a lot.
At this moment, Xue Mi pushed the door open and walked in, asking curiously, "What's wrong? How come as soon as I came in, I heard you guys talking about cutting off someone's tongue?"
The others laughed again, and someone pushed out the data party member and asked him to have a good talk with the boss.
"I was just worried about our performance and accidentally let it slip," the data-driven person said awkwardly, "Besides, the pre-sale curve is nothing. Whether we can really outperform that movie or not, we still have to wait until it's officially released."
The others sneered again, mocking this lackey for having a completely different face in front of the boss.
"What's the situation now?" Xue Mi asked.
"We're betting on today's box office results. Boss, do you want to play with us?" a crew member said loudly.
"What are the possible options?" Xue Mi leaned over to take a look curiously.
On the small blackboard, the betting items are divided into quite detailed categories. The bottom line is 100 million, and every 10 million above is a level. The range with the most bets is between 180 million and 230 million. Going up further, fewer and fewer people choose it, and finally it stops at 320 million. No one will guess above that.
"Why not guess higher?" Xue Mi, an outsider, asked a stupid question.
"Previously, the highest box office for a summer premiere was only 340 million yuan, but their publicity and subject matter were very solid. We are just a small comedy movie, so we won't try to copy their example," someone said.
Besides, what does it mean if the box office on the first day exceeded 300 million? Especially for a comedy movie like this that doesn't have any top stars joining in and isn't a sequel to a big IP, if it could really reach that high... it's just impossible!
"Oh, then I'll bet 400 million... No, let's bet 420 million. It'll be 80 million more than the record. It sounds like a good sign."
Everyone fell silent.
An outsider is an outsider, how dare they say that!
