Chapter 675: Has Wu Feng’s Mouth Been Blessed?

[Ding. Platinum Road To Zenith completed.]

Su Yang, who was mentally prepared for the Platinum Mission, did not check the mission reward immediately. Instead, he slowly finished reading the book in his hand.

[Ding! Finished reading “Where Are You Going, Demon” seriously, obtained a virtual special effects production server.]

Listening to the system notification, Su Yang checked his virtual server. ‘I now have more than 300 of them, which is enough to deal with the special effects of most non-large movies.

‘However… For a sci-fi film like “Wandering Planet”… I still need to accumulate more.’

With that thought in mind, Su Yang put down his book and glanced at Chu Xia, who was still busy writing her novel. Then, he turned on the system.

On the system interface, which was similar to a domestically produced pay-to-win mobile game, a platinum bar flashed, indicating the completion of the Platinum Mission.

Su Yang clicked on it and the mission reward popped up in front of him.

[Completed the third round of the mission, received a Random Prize Voucher and automatically triggered the next round of the mission (Final round).]

Because he had read too many books, Su Yang, who had become extremely relaxed, got excited when he saw the “Final Round” notification!

‘The final round!

‘Does this mean that as long as I complete this mission, I will be able to obtain a Platinum Point?’

Su Yang then quickly closed the notification. In fact, he did not even look at the “Random Prize Voucher” he had just received and directly clicked on the mission.

[Platinum Road To Zenith: Filming An Earth Related Movie (Final Round)]

Mission Objective: Shoot a movie related to Earth and achieve the best box office in China’s history.

Time limit: 14 months.

Reward: Platinum Point.

It was such a simple and clear mission that Su Yang was dumbfounded when he saw it.

He rubbed his eyes. After confirming that he was not mistaken… He began to doubt himself.

‘Are you telling me that… The system, who’s a son of mine, has actually become humane?

‘Has it finally stopped torturing me?

‘It’s actually given me a mission that coincides with what I’m doing at the moment so well?

‘I just so happen to be filming “Wandering Planet”, a movie related to Earth. Now, it’s just issued me a mission to film a movie so coincidentally?

‘Moreover, based on the mission’s objective, this movie’s box office has to be the highest in China’s history.

‘I remember that the current domestic box office champion is still last year’s release of [Transformation 4], which received 1.976 billion yuan.

On the other hand, Little Hus’s nose sniffed that the box office of “Wandering Planet” would be more than 4 billion yuan.

‘Unless there’s a big hit within this year and tomorrow which exceeds four billion yuan, my movie will definitely be the champion!

‘Is the system being so kind now, issuing such missions to me?

‘I’m still a little skeptical though…

‘This shouldn’t be the case…

‘This b*stard’s definitely tricking me in some way, isn’t it?’

With that thought in mind, Su Yang, who had a persecutory delusional disorder, read through the mission once more. Then… He, a blind student, actually discovered something!

‘This d*mned system really isn’t as nice as I thought!

‘All my other missions have been difficult because of its [Mission Objectives], but this mission… This is the only mission whose difficulty is its [Mission Time].

’14 months!

‘I’m supposed to film a sci-fi movie in 14 months and have it released nationwide. Plus, I have to make sure that it hits first place in history?!

‘How is this possible!

‘Even if I’m using my cheats, the audience would still need time to watch the movie, wouldn’t they? I can’t possibly have “Wandering Planet” surpass 2 billion yuan on the first day and rank first in the history of movies now, can I?!

‘If that’s the case, I only have 10 months left to film this movie.

‘This is a trap, a huge trap!’

Just as Su Yang was thinking about this, he heard a “Ding Dong” sound beside his ear, notifying him that he had just received a WeChat message.

Hence, Su Yang set aside his complaints about the system and opened WeChat instead.

Wu Feng had just sent Su Yang a compressed file through WeChat.

Below the compressed file was a message from Wu Feng. ‘Brother Su, the sequel script for our movie is out and we also have the entire project book now. I’ve sent you a copy so that you can have a look first.

‘It’s still in the midst of some minor adjustments, but this is the gist of the entire project. HAve a look at it and see if you have any opinions. If there are any problems, let’s have a discussion about it.’

Su Yang replied. ‘Alright, Brother Wu. I’ll have a look at it now.’

However, just as Su Yang finished replying, he heard an earth-shattering dog barking beside his ear. “Su Yang! Su Yang! A fragrance! A huge fragrance!”

Su Yang was almost scared to death by Little Hus’s loud voice. He glanced at Chu Xia, who was beside him and hurried out of the office. Then, he found an empty conference room and placed his phone by his ear, pretending to make a call. Then, he asked, “What’s this fragrance about?”

Little Hus said, “The fragrance is coming from your phone! It smells so good! Did you just receive something?”

Su Yang was confused.

‘What…

‘Did I… Just receive?

‘Did I receive anything?’

Su Yang hesitated for a moment and thought of… ‘Wu Feng’s document?’

Su Yang was stunned for a moment before saying, “I believe there’s only this proposal for Wu Feng’s sequel movie.”

Little Hus said, “That should be it then! Its fragrance is super rich!”

Su Yang was confused.

‘Rich?

‘How rich could it be?

‘Could it be even richer than “Wandering Planet”, which is worth four to five billion yuan?

‘The original fragrance for “Wolf Warriors” was only 500-600 million yuan. So, since this is its sequel, would it still be worth about a billion yuan at the box office?

‘Little Hus, you’re really getting more and more ignorant, you d*mned dog. Why are you barking away at a movie that’s only worth a billion yuan?’

With that thought in mind, Su Yang passed the document to Little Deeny and got her to print it out for Little Hus to take a closer look.

Moments later…

Little Hus gave Su Yang an answer. “Su Yang! You’re going to be rich! You’re really going to be rich this time!”

Su Yang asked, “I’m going to be rich? How rich? One billion yuan?”

Little Hus said, “Guess again.”

Su Yang said, “800 million yuan?”

Little Hus was speechless.

Then, it said, “Guess higher! The higher the better!”

Su Yang was stunned.

‘The higher the better…’

“In that case, two billion yuan?”

‘The box office for “Wolf Warriors” was 700 million yuan, so it should be high enough if its sequel earns three times that amount in its box office, shouldn’t it?’

However, Little Hus said in an extremely disdainful tone, “Poverty really limits your imagination.”

Su Yang was speechless.

‘Am I being despised right now?’

Su Yang was in disbelief. ‘If two billion yuan is considered to be “cheap”, then how much would it take to make it “expensive”?!’

So he asked, “How much is it then? Tell me how much do you smell then, since you claim that you’re not poor?”

Little Hus then screamed, “Five billion yuan! It might be even higher! In fact, it might even be six billion yuan!”

Su Yang was stunned.

Then his mouth slowly gaped open.

‘Five billion yuan?

‘Maybe even six billion yuan?

‘Are you kidding me?

‘H… How is this possible!

‘Compared to the previous movie, its sequel’s box office would increase by 10 times?’

At that thought, Su Yang could not help but recall how he, Wu Feng and Guo Fan had bragged during their dinner a few days ago…

‘What did Wu Feng say at that time? Didn’t he say if my “Wandering Planet” is going to receive a box office of four to five billion yuan, then his sequel would have a box office of five to six billion yuan?

‘What the…?

‘He’s such a jin… Pui, Has his mouth been blessed?!

‘He actually got it right?!’

At the thought of this, Su Yang could not help but recall that he had 65% share of the sequel’s investment.

‘6 billion yuan at the box office… How much would that equal to based on the 65% I have?’

Su Yang then held out his hands and did some calculations… But he still could not figure it out.

‘There are too many zeros here, but there should be 1.4 to 1.5 billion yuan, shouldn’t it.

On the other hand, the total amount invested in “Wolf Warriors 2” is quite small, just a little over 100 million yuan. Plus, my share in that investment should be no more than 70 million yuan. In other words, if it’s 70 million yuan, I’d make 1.4 billion yuan…

‘Holy s*it! I really have taken advantage of Wu Feng!

‘I’m rich, I’m rich, I’m really going to become rich this time!’

Just as Su Yang was exclaiming in excitement, Little Deeny’s voice suddenly rang beside Su Yang’s ears. “Master, don’t be so agitated… Do you want to ask Director Wu about the estimated time of release?”

“You’ve just accepted a Platinum Mission, so if it’s going to be the same timing…”

Su Yang was shocked.

‘She’s right!

‘Wu Feng’s famous for wanting to do everything quickly, so his movies would be as fast as a bullet. In fact, it might only take him eight or nine months from the start to the release of the movie.

‘So, if his movie gets released earlier, he’s going to become the box office champion!

‘Then, my Platinum Mission would be ruined!

‘I can’t let this happen!’

Just as Su Yang was thinking about that, he could not help but recall the six billion yuan.

‘This movie is so profitable.

‘Yet, I’m supposed to delay it?

‘I can’t delay the box office that it’s going to receive though!

‘This is such an unpredictable world.

‘I’ve clearly just received a Platinum Mission and I also know that both of these movies would be super popular with a total box office worth tens of billions of yuan.

‘But, after all this… I can’t feel happy about it?

‘I’m actually facing the day when I would have to be worried that my movie’s box office would become too high and would even affect my Platinum Mission?

‘This… This is such bullsh*t!

‘This d*mned system is really up to no good!’

At that thought, Su Yang sent a WeChat message to Wu Feng. ‘Brother Wu, when is our movie going to be released?’

Wu Feng replied almost instantly. ‘Brother Su, aren’t you being too impatient? We’ve only just done the first phase of this project and you’re already thinking of having it released… It’s still far from being completed.’

Su Yang heaved a sigh of relief.

Wu Feng then texted again. ‘However, with my speed of filming movies, I think it will be released during Chinese New Year next year.’

Su Yang was confused and he started calculating. ‘Great… 10 months…

‘You think I’m the impatient one? I actually think that it’s you who’s being impatient.

‘That’s so quick!

‘I’m in a huge pinch now…

’10 months… “Wandering Planet” definitely won’t get finished.

‘Are you telling me that I won’t be able to complete my Platinum Mission then…?

‘I’d best come up with a perfect plan which would not only not affect the box office of “Wolf Warriors 2”, but also allow “Wandering Planet” to be released in advance and claim the title of box office champion…

‘Even if the two movies get released half a month away from each other, it would still be good.

‘Having “Wandering Planet” be the champion for a few days should be considered for me to have completed the mission!’

Although Su Yang had a good idea, he realized that he could not explain this to Wu Feng.

‘I can’t just tell Wu Feng to have his movie postponed for half a year so that I can complete my mission…

‘Wu Feng would probably think that I’ve gone crazy.

‘Furthermore, I can’t make use of the conflict between both movie’s schedules as an excuse to postpone the movie. After all… A normal person would think that a sci-fi blockbuster would take longer to film than an action movie. So, in terms of which movie’s premiere should be postponed, of course it would have to be “Wandering Planet”.

‘This is so annoying…

‘I’ve got to think carefully about how I’m going to resolve this matter.’

With that thought in mind, Su Yang entered the virtual space and decided to have a good chat with Little Hus about the fragrance of “Wolf Warriors 2”. He wanted to see if the fragrance was affected by some external factors.
