Chapter 138 If the Yue family is in trouble, shouldn’t we be even more so?
Taking advantage of the opportunity of the business trip, Yang Ruoqian and Chang Zhiqing paid New Year’s greetings to their respective parents in advance, so that they don’t have to run around and squeeze in with people during the Spring Festival, and can rest comfortably at home.
Compared to visiting relatives and friends during the holidays, having family reunion dinner with a group of people you are not actually close to, and saying New Year greetings that are not from the heart, Yang Ruoqian prefers to relax and unwind at home with a few close people.
Chang Zhiqing also thought so.
Moreover, since it is the Spring Festival, as the two top leaders of Kuiguang Company, they naturally have to set an example and resolutely ignore any work-related matters during the holiday.
Even though there were already 99+ unread messages, the two of them chose to ignore them.
Especially the things sent by Shao Yiqi, they would not even look at them.
In the living room, Yang Ruoqian peeled pistachios with deft fingers, while his eyes leisurely scanned various news information on the screen of his mobile phone.
The table was filled with all kinds of candied fruits, nuts and braised dishes. Although there were only two people at home, the sound of firecrackers outside the building and the programs on TV still filled the house with the atmosphere of the New Year.
"Alas, Yuefu really spared no effort this time, and it was released during the Spring Festival. However, when they started filming, we hadn't made any progress yet, and their investment was much higher than ours, so it's reasonable that they can catch up."
Of course, Yuefu didn't have a "three-good partner" like Yang Ruoqian who always caused trouble for the producers to force the progress.
Recently, all the hot searches on the headlines are about their new drama "Thunder Soldier", which is said to be a big-budget war film that has profound educational significance and can make people's blood boil.
It is said that this drama is also an IP project that Yuefu Group focuses on cultivating. Zheng Wei is personally in charge of it and has high hopes for it.
It’s full of gimmicks and the audience’s expectations are very high, but I don’t know what the final reputation and ratings will be.
To be honest, Yang Ruoqian didn't have a good impression of Yue Mansion and really wanted to see them fall... Unfortunately, with Kui Guang's current strength, he could only curse them in his heart at most and could not pose any threat to Yue Mansion at all.
The time Yan Guang worked as a spy, he was just lucky, it was an experience that cannot be replicated.
I was playing with my phone when I suddenly heard light footsteps behind me.
"Yang Ruoqian!" Chang Zhiqing ran out of the room barefoot in a bright red slim-fitting nightgown and sat on the sofa with a look of anticipation on her face. "What are we doing tonight?"
do what……
Yang Ruoqian threw the pistachio into his mouth and thought about the question carefully.
Watch the Spring Festival Gala? But Yang Ruoqian himself didn't really like watching the Spring Festival Gala, and according to his understanding, Chang Zhiqing probably didn't like watching it either.
Play games together?
Forget it, Chang Zhiqing is too weak, and fighting her is too torturous...
"How about we take a look at Yuefu's new work?" Yang Ruoqian suddenly had an idea and thought of a good entertainment project, "It's the Thunder Warrior. They are praising it so much, we have to give it a good review."
Chang Zhiqing's smile froze for a moment: "Look, what are you looking at?"
"'Thunder Warriors', it seems that the first and second episodes have been released now." Yang Ruoqian became more and more excited as he spoke, "It's nearly an hour of plot."
“…”
Chang Zhiqing grabbed a happy fruit, glared at Yang Ruoqian, and chose to give in: "Let's first read the comments of various video bloggers on this drama. The risk of being poisoned by watching it directly is a bit high."
"That's fine. I'll look for it." Yang Ruoqian opened the Pink app and searched for some well-known TV and film complainers. "Can you help me turn the TV to screen projection mode?"
Chang Zhiqing secretly rolled her eyes, picked up the remote control, pressed a few buttons, and turned the TV to projection mode.
At the same time, Yang Ruoqian also found several related videos on his mobile phone.
It's really competitive. "Thunder Soldier" has not been released for long, but these up-loaders were able to make review videos during the Spring Festival. I can only say that they are very dedicated.
In contrast, the employees of Kuiguang Group were ordered by their boss to slack off, and if they tried to work hard, they would be found guilty and have their wages deducted. During the holidays, no one even dared to reply to messages from customers. The contrast was very clear.
"I've watched several videos of upvoters, and it seems that the reviews of this film are very low. It's interesting." Yang Ruoqian took a quick look around, found an upvoter with a decent number of fans and good reputation in the film and television section, and clicked on his latest video.
The phone was connected to the TV, and a slightly exaggerated male voice immediately came from the speakers.
"Hello, my dears. I'm Xiao Liu. A few days ago, a war movie was released that was highly praised by some people. I heard that it claims to be the spiritual sequel to "Bright Arrow". Today I'm here to tell you about it."
"Let me start with the conclusion. This is a fake idol drama disguised as a war movie. If 1 point is not the lowest, I must give it 0 points."
"What are other people's war movies? Italian cannons. What is he? Damn Italian hair wax! Others are fighting elite troops, but he is fighting hair wax!"
"In this drama, no matter which faction or character, whenever they appear, regardless of time or place, even on the front lines with guns blazing, they all have their hair waxed up to a shiny finish. You can tell they all come from the same hair salon."
"It's the same for male characters and female characters. Look at the lipstick, the foundation, the double eyelids cut out with a machete, the awkward slow motion and the zombie-like acting. Even if you randomly grab someone on the street, they'll be more natural than you!"
"What were the conditions of the war at that time? What the hell are you filming?! Can the director and screenwriter respect history and heroes?"
When Yang Ruoqian and Chang Zhiqing saw this, they looked at each other and saw the same meaning in each other's eyes - the drama Yuefu seemed to be showing a trend of impending failure.
To say that this up-loader's criticism is sharp is a bit of an understatement, as he is almost pointing fingers at "Thunder Soldier" and insulting it.
I have to say, sometimes reading film and TV reviews is more interesting than watching the movies or TV series themselves...
Over the speakers, the up master's curses, with strong personal emotions, were still coming out, relegating Yue Fu's masterpiece to the basement, bringing a touch of different happiness to this year's Spring Festival.
"The soldiers on the front line wore clothes so clean that there weren't even any wrinkles. Did you iron your clothes every day during the war? It's said to be the sequel to Bright Arrow. Can you take a look at how Bright Arrow was filmed?"
"And this part, the soldiers outside were bombed and suffered heavy casualties, and you, the leader, were drinking coffee leisurely in the air-raid shelter. Not to mention that there was not a speck of dust on your body, after drinking the coffee, you even said, 'Too much sugar'."
"I don't think there's too much sugar, but not enough shit."
"He has the nerve to tell his subordinates to hold on and not retreat. Let me ask you, if you have a leader like this, with you fighting hard in the front and him doing nothing but giving orders in the back, and even complaining that the coffee is too sweet, how would you feel?"
"And this part... is it on the front line? I would believe you if you said it was a catwalk!"
“…”
"As for this war film, I didn't see any tragedy, no truth, no epic that could move people. I only saw a group of absurd clowns acting out a ridiculous fantasy story."
"And this is just the first episode, the first episode!"
"To be able to produce something like this, the producer is not bad, but bad. Ban it immediately!"
"Thank you guys for watching this episode, please remember to follow and triple like, see you next time!"
Click, the video ends and the TV screen returns to black.
Yang Ruoqian looked at the screen, flipping through the content on his phone with mixed emotions, and remained silent for a long time.
simply……
It’s just great!
What Yang Ruoqian wanted at the beginning was to create as many eye-catching online dramas as possible to divert traffic and let "The Dragon Son-in-law" die in obscurity.
"Thunder Soldier" exceeded Yang Ruoqian's expectations - it became a huge hit.
It is undoubtedly a perfect plot that not only attracts attention but also has great appeal.
"After watching it, how do you feel?" Chang Zhiqing crossed her long legs and glanced at Yang Ruoqian out of the corner of her eye, "What should we do next?"
"I'm in such a good mood. Seeing Yuefu in trouble makes me happier than making money myself... than losing money myself!"
I was so happy that I almost couldn't brake...
Yang Ruoqian was a little excited. He clicked on the homepage of this up master and found that the latest video was released ten minutes ago. The content was exactly the second episode of "Thunder Warrior".
"Why don't we watch this while eating? Let's complain about the second episode." Yang Ruoqian suggested while grabbing a handful of melon seeds for Chang Zhiqing and considerately stuffing them into her hand.
Chang Zhiqing squeezed the melon seeds in her palm until they made a crackling sound and took a deep breath: "...Okay, let's see this then."
"Hahaha! This line is too awkward. They even say 'I am invincible'. Hahaha! Is this a war movie?"
"Yeah...haha." Chang Zhiqing nodded.
Ten minutes later, the second episode of the complaining video ended.
It still has the same taste as the first episode, the bad ones break the upper limit, and the evil ones break the bottom line.
Chang Zhiqing, who was so bored that she was peeling melon seeds, looked up and asked, "What are we going to do next?"
Yang Ruoqian, who was happy to see Yuefu in trouble, couldn't stop laughing: "Look at how other up hosts complain. I feel that this up still has too little to complain about."
Although there is not much problem with the central idea of their own "Dragon Son-in-law", and it does not touch the bottom line like "Thunder Warrior", the outrageous plot is even worse.
If Yue Mansion was defeated, how could Kui Guang's not be defeated? "...Okay." Chang Zhiqing said without any emotion.
Another ten minutes passed and the video finally finished playing. Chang Zhiqing sat cross-legged on the sofa, having eaten all the melon seeds in her hands.
Chang Zhiqing raised her head again and again: "After reading it, is there anything else to do?"
Yang Ruoqian suggested enthusiastically: "I think this uploader still omitted too much content. Why don't we just watch the original film? Two episodes can last a long time."
Watch the original film...
You still want to watch the original film! After enduring more than half an hour of bloody plot, Chang Zhiqing finally couldn't stand it anymore. She directly pressed Yang Ruoqian on the sofa and said angrily: "I'll let you watch it, I'll let you watch it enough!"
