“I used to think it was a waste that I couldn’t get ‘talent points’ from making movies, since this is my main job.”
But now I've discovered that while making movies doesn't grant 'talent points,' it does grant 'faith points.'
Xu Lu sighed as the Buddha Kingdom in the palm of his hand advanced from 'Ninth Rank' to 'Eighth Rank'.
In order to improve his 'Unparalleled Talent' level, he had to create an alternate account to acquire 'Talent Points'.
It took a lot of effort to raise his talent value to the level of 'talented and skilled'.
Of course, this also unlocked a series of abilities such as photographic memory and rapid advancement in one's career.
However, there were some minor complaints during the period that the movie's release did not bring any talent points.
But he only just realized that although making movies didn't earn him 'talent points,' it did earn him 'faith points' needed to advance to 'Buddha Kingdom in the Palm of Your Hand.'
Now, I instantly felt like I'd gotten my money's worth.
Moreover, "Tang Bohu and Qiu Xiang" has only been released for one day, yet it has already brought him more than 20,000 "faith points".
The Buddha Kingdom in the Palm of Your Hand has also successfully advanced to the eighth rank.
If they wait until the movie is finished being released, Xu Lu feels that he can at least upgrade the Buddha Kingdom in the Palm of His Hand to a seventh-grade Buddha Kingdom.
The personal space of a ninth-grade Buddhist kingdom is 1 cubic meter, while the personal space of an eighth-grade Buddhist kingdom is 1000 cubic meters in size.
According to the existing expansion pattern.
The size of a seventh-grade Buddhist kingdom is probably 100*100*100=1 million cubic meters.
This data may not seem intuitive at first glance, but if used to store water, it can hold one million tons.
Keep in mind that the world's largest ships are only around a million tons, which is terrifying, isn't it?
That means Xu Lu alone will be able to carry all the cargo of a large ship away!
"Just thinking about it is awesome! It means that if I wanted to, I could take the whole villa with me!"
Xu Lu laughed.
Even so, it is still far from reaching the limit of the Buddha Kingdom in the palm of your hand.
Based on the current ranking system, the highest-ranking Buddha Kingdom should be a First-Class Buddha Kingdom.
Moreover, the highest-level Buddhist kingdom will not only be able to store items, but also allow living creatures to survive inside.
"This is perfect. In the future, not only will I get system rewards for making movies, but I can also get 'faith points'."
The acquired 'Faith Points' can then be used to upgrade the level of the Buddha Kingdom in the Palm of Your Hand, which is equivalent to killing two birds with one stone.
Xu Lu felt very satisfied.
It's just a pity that the skill "Buddha Kingdom in the Palm" was released relatively late.
Otherwise, given the sensation his previous films had caused.
The 'faith points' you acquire might even elevate your Buddha Kingdom to a seventh-grade or even a sixth-grade Buddha Kingdom.
I wonder what rank the Buddhist kingdom needs to reach before living beings can survive within it.
"Hmm, since shooting movies can earn 'Faith Points,' can releasing songs also earn 'Faith Points'?"
Suddenly, a brilliant idea flashed into Xu Lu's mind.
In fact, he already knew that releasing songs could earn him 'talent points'.
Because after temporarily banning the pseudonym 'Qinglian Jushi', he originally planned to create another pseudonym to harvest 'talent points' in the music industry.
But if you could "sell one item for two purposes," releasing a song would not only earn you "talent points" but also "faith points," that would be awesome.
Having thought this through, Xu Lu made up his mind, thinking to himself:
"We need to find an opportunity to test this soon. If it really works, we'll immediately create an alias and try to make it in the music industry."
"Ha! Those guys in the music industry have always had some issues with me, haven't they? This is a good opportunity to teach them a lesson."
...
People in the music industry are unaware that they are about to face a blow from another industry.
However, people in the film industry have already felt Director Xu's dominance over the box office.
The group was quite shocked by the news that "Tang Bohu and Qiu Xiang" had grossed over 100 million yuan on its opening day.
"I originally thought that Director Xu Lu hadn't made a comedy for a long time because his talent in this area had been worn out."
But now, seeing that this movie grossed over 100 million yuan on its opening day, I realize that's not the case at all. I was careless!
"Although I don't want to admit it, Xu Lu is truly in a class of his own in the industry."
Below him are the top-tier, second-tier, and third-tier directors in the industry.
"Judging from the current situation, Zhao Fu does not have the strength to challenge Director Xu."
With over 100 million yuan in box office revenue on its opening day, the total box office should easily reach 2 billion yuan. That's terrifying!
"That's right. Other people only hope to break even when making movies, but for Director Xu, 1 billion is just the starting point."
...
"Those guys in the music industry have always disliked Director Xu, thinking that he's trying to cause trouble for them by crossing over into other fields."
But they have no idea about our troubles; we're in the same circle as Director Xu.
"Yes, it's too difficult. Compared to Director Xu, I feel like I haven't even scratched the surface."
"Who can argue with that? Luckily, he's the only prodigy in the industry, otherwise none of us would survive."
"Relax a bit. No matter how good Director Xu Lu is, he can only make a few films a year. There's still a way for everyone to make a living."
We should be grateful that making a movie takes so long; if it were music, which has an even shorter creation time, well…”
...
Upon realizing this, people in the film industry breathed a sigh of relief.
Indeed, it takes at least several months to make a movie, and only a few can be made in a year.
