Chapter 76 The World of Entertainment 22 The Birth of a Hit Drama
"What did you guys say down there just now?"
After entering the house, while sitting in the living room waiting for the takeaway, Lu Yuming couldn't help but ask Chu Sicheng what happened at the gate of the community.
"He asked me what conditions I wanted before I would agree to be with him." Chu Sicheng said lightly.
However, in reality, what happened before Lu Yuming appeared was not as simple as Chu Sicheng described.
Because Jiuchongtian was about to start airing, Chu Sicheng's work became busy. In order to let the man have a good rest, Lu Yuming thoughtfully canceled the activity of him picking him up from school, so Lu Yuming took the bus home by himself during this period.
Chu Sicheng also had some free time during the time when Lu Yuming was out of school.
It happened that he finished work early today. Seeing that it was still daylight outside, Chu Sicheng thought of going out for a walk to stretch his stiff body.
As a result, when he was drinking the yogurt he bought from the supermarket and was about to stroll to the gate of the community to pick up Lu Yuming to go home together, he saw Qin Yuan standing there fully armed and obviously waiting for him.
"Is this what you're going to eat for dinner?" The man frowned subconsciously when he saw Chu Sicheng holding the yogurt bag with empty hands. Then he remembered the purpose of his visit and immediately relaxed his body. He gave Chu Sicheng a stiff smile and said:
"It just so happens that there's a delicious restaurant nearby. Do you want to go and try it together?"
However, Chu Sicheng did not respond to him at all.
Qin Yuan was not as angry as he was in the hospital before. Even though Chu Sicheng ignored him, he still kept smiling and said:
"I was too abrupt last time, so I came here specifically to apologize to you. I also hope you can give me this opportunity to express my apology."
“…”
Chu Sicheng couldn't help laughing when he heard that. Of course, it wasn't a kind smile, but one full of sarcasm.
Apologize for my rudeness last time...
What about the massive amount of negative information that has appeared online? What about that out-of-context surveillance video? What about the negative information about Shen Nanyi that instantly disappeared from the internet?
She suddenly appeared without his knowledge, saying that she wanted to apologize, but the thing she wanted to apologize for was actually the most insignificant harm he had caused to Chu Sicheng before.
So was he here to apologize, or was he asking something of Chu Sicheng? Both Qin Yuan and Chu Sicheng knew the former's purpose very well.
A hint of sarcasm flashed across his eyes, and Chu Sicheng reached out to remove the yogurt bag from his mouth. He originally wanted to be sarcastic to Qin Yuan, but when he thought about Lu Yuming's imminent return, he didn't want Qin Yuan to know about Lu Yuming's existence at this time...
So, he gently licked the corner of his lips with a faint sweetness with the tip of his tongue. Chu Sicheng silently looked at Qin Yuan who was not far away from him. When the corner of his mouth began to twitch and the smile on his face was about to give up, he spoke lightly:
"No need. I've forgotten about that incident a long time ago, so there's no need for you to apologize, Mr. Qin. It's getting late, Mr. Qin should get in the car and go home early."
After saying that, Chu Sicheng threw the empty yogurt bag in his hand into the trash can next to him, then walked into the community.
However, before he could walk through the iron gate, he heard hurried footsteps from behind, and the next second, Chu Sicheng's wrist behind his back was grabbed by a man.
The satisfaction generated by the physical contact made Qin Yuan feel so comfortable that he almost hummed, as if a dead tree had come back to life.
Fortunately, his willpower was still strong, and after coming into contact with his only antidote, he was still able to retain a bit of rationality and continue to achieve his goal.
"Don't leave yet!"
In order to make Chu Sicheng reject him even more, Qin Yuan forced himself to let go of the other's wrist, and then said with a very sincere look:
"I know I went too far last time and didn't consider your feelings. I carefully arranged a decision that I thought was good for you, but this was clearly disrespectful to you. I reflected on myself afterwards."
"But please understand. I've been ill for far too long, which is why I lost my composure after meeting someone I don't reject. But I will never do this again, so please give me a chance. This time, no matter what conditions you put forward, I will agree to them, as long as you are willing to cooperate with me to complete the rest of the treatment."
This was probably the longest and most serious speech Qin Yuan had said recently, and his attitude seemed serious and sincere enough. Chu Sicheng glanced at him and found that his eyes were also firm, so firm that even if Chu Sicheng said to die, he would do it immediately.
But Chu Sicheng knew very well that Qin Yuan would not die. At least now, he would not die for the Chu Sicheng version of Jiang Nian'an.
The humility at this moment is nothing more than a helpless act after weighing the pros and cons.
So, Chu Sicheng smiled at Qin Yuan, and when the other party thought that he had softened his attitude and was finally willing to help, he said softly: "I don't want to."
Qin Yuan paused, a fierce look flashed in his eyes. Chu Sicheng saw it, but did not take it seriously.
Even if Qin Yuan gets angry, what can he do?
He couldn't ask the bodyguards to forcibly take him back to the Qin family in front of passers-by. Moreover, even if he really dared to do that, it would depend on whether the bodyguards had the ability to take him back.
Therefore, compared to Qin Yuan who was tense all over, Chu Sicheng looked relaxed to the extreme, until a green taxi stopped opposite the community. Then, as the car door opened, a familiar figure appeared in Chu Sicheng's sight.
It’s Lu Yuming.
Chu Sicheng's breathing suddenly stopped, and he immediately changed his position to ensure that Qin Yuan, who was following him, would not notice Lu Yuming's approach. Finally, when Qin Yuan's words provoked him to grab him again, he raised his eyes and shook his head silently at the young man, refusing him to get closer.
He knew very well that doing this would make Lu Yuming sad, but there was no way. Now was not the best time for Qin Yuan and Lu Yuming to meet. At least, in his imagination, the scene of Lu Yuming and Qin Yuan meeting should be when the young man was in a high position.
He absolutely would not allow the label of illegitimate child who was tortured and humiliated by the eldest son of the Qin family in the original plot to fall on the current Lu Yuming.
so……
Looking across the table at the young man who was frowning because of the chili peppers, Chu Sicheng thought of the young man in the original plot who was deliberately splashed with hot soup by Qin Yuan's lackeys at the banquet without showing any pain. He reached out and picked up a chopstick of chili peppers and put it in his mouth. As the pain bloomed on the tip of his tongue, he decided to speed up the progress of his previously set task of bringing down the Qin family.
So, as autumn turns to winter and the snow falls heavily, students come out of school one after another with their backpacks on their backs, preparing to welcome the wonderful winter vacation. At the same time, major video apps and Orange TV on TV also begin to warm up for the upcoming broadcast of "Nine Heavens".
This big production, starring a young and talented actor and directed by the famous director Zhang Yong and backed by the Qin Group, has created a lot of hype and attracted the interest of many viewers when the trailer and behind-the-scenes footage were just released.
After all, the various cool special effects, the carefully crafted makeup by major stylists, and the participation of various actors and popular stars are really something to look forward to.
However, on the day when Jiuchongtian was first broadcast, a long video about cultivating immortals, produced by an unknown small workshop, suddenly appeared on the homepage of every netizen who opened Weibo.
The publisher is a newly registered account named Tianjie Dagongren.
Due to the recent heavy publicity for Jiuchongtian, one or two five- to six-minute behind-the-scenes videos are often updated on Weibo to attract more viewers. So when most netizens saw the white-clothed swordsman flying on a sword in the video, they subconsciously thought that this was another video promoting Jiuchongtian.
However, when they clicked it, they found that this was a world completely different from the Ninth Heaven.
Compared to the story of the good-for-nothing protagonist in Ninth Heaven who counterattacks and ascends to immortality, the first episode describes the emotions between people. However, this video that suddenly appeared on the homepage unfolds a real world of immortal cultivation where the strong prey on the weak for the audience in just one hour.
The video begins with the perspective of a soldier holding the video. In front of him is the struggle between the general of the God Realm and the young master of the Demon Realm, and behind them are countless heavenly soldiers and generals with their chests held high and their backs straight.
Moreover, compared to the Nine Heavens, the special effects in this video are even better. Every character in it is very consistent with their identity. They are as light as a swallow when flying in the clouds, and the special effects when casting spells are also extremely realistic. It is as if the soldier brought the mobile phone to the fairyland when he ascended, and then through his own perspective, unfolded a different and vivid world of cultivation for everyone.
Each episode is one hour long, which is slightly longer than other regular TV dramas. However, in this fast-paced era where even five-minute short videos are considered lengthy, the completion rate of this video has reached a terrifying 97%.
Even after watching the video, many viewers were still not satisfied and couldn't wait to watch the next episode. Viewers urging for updates and discussing the show flocked to the comment section. As the number of comments continued to rise, tonight's hot searches were also quietly changing.
So, just when the production team of Jiuchongtian was full of confidence and ready to welcome the birth of a hit drama, the grand occasion they expected of Jiuchongtian topics dominating the hot search list did not happen.
Counting from top to bottom, the top three hot searches are:
#HeavenlyWorkers
#Who is the publisher of the long video "Xiu Xian"
#urgent! When will the second episode of Xiuxian be updated?
