Chapter 94: Chapter 94: Do You Dare to Provoke Me? (Third Update)
Translator: 549690339
The entire internet was set ablaze by this promotional trailer.
Used to the contention of immortals, it was the first time many saw such a defiant protagonist, and moreover, a female lead.
Many people were shocked.
Particularly in the end, the silhouette of Fan Mengxue standing alone against the multitude of heavenly divine beings caused many to tear up as they watched.
It must be said that Cao Zheng’s directorial foundation is indeed profound; even with such a short trailer, one could see the care he put into it.
Of course, the most important thing was the special effects in the trailer.
Many people were stunned by the special effects presented there.
Without any exaggeration, the top-notch effects of Hollywood were mere trash compared to this promotional trailer.
The figure of the giant dragon was unforgettable at first sight.
Therefore, there was no need for deliberate promotion, as many people voluntarily began to spread the video.
So before a day had passed, the promotional trailer had spread throughout the internet, and “God Slayer” naturally topped the trending search list, even surpassing “War of the Gods” and becoming number one.
This plunged Hua Ruyue into extreme panic and jealousy. When she found Xie Tianci, she was about to say something.
Then she noticed that Xie Tianci’s face was terribly gloomy.
Xie Tianci of course had seen the trailer as well.
When he saw those lifelike “special effects,” he was so angry that he smashed his phone to pieces.
Why!
Why, even though he had already blocked their path in post-production, were they still able to create such beautiful special effects?
Xie Tianci suddenly felt a flicker of fear.
It was as if all of his actions were being watched by a pair of eyes from high above.
Even with his eyes closed, Xie Tianci could feel the mockery in those eyes.
This left him feeling deeply apprehensive.
“Young Master Xie… what do we do now?” Hua Ruyue asked anxiously. Xie Tianci gave her a cold glance and then took out his phone to make a call.
“I’ve already notified all major cinemas to collectively ban this movie! Even if they can make it, I can ensure they won’t be able to release it!”
Xie Tianci finally resorted to his last trump card.
Hua Ruyue breathed a sigh of relief.
No matter how wonderfully her film was made, if it couldn’t be released, wouldn’t it all be for naught?
Hua Ruyue’s heart was filled with smugness and schadenfreude.
I can’t wait to see how you cry then!
Wang Wenjian and others looked forward eagerly, just waiting for “God Slayer” to officially hit the screens.
Because “War of the Gods” had already set its premiere date for June 18th.
So, “God Slayer” must also be coming soon, right?
At this moment, the online public opinion was in a deadlock, with fans of “War of the Gods” and “God Slayer” hurling insults and tearing at each other, all waiting to settle the score upon release.
Meanwhile, in the hotel, Cao Zheng was working overtime, making final touch-ups.
He had high expectations for this film, so he wouldn’t allow any imperfections.
But apart from that, things were manageable. Fan Mengxue understood that Cao Zheng was acting in her best interest, so no matter how exacting his demands, she accepted them willingly.
Bi Yuntao was now acting like a well-behaved baby, daring not to defy any commands.
But when it came to shooting scenes with special effects, Cao Zheng was always dissatisfied with Jin Long’s performance, often needing many takes for a single shot.
Sometimes, Jin Long was so frustrated that it wished it could just slap this annoying insect to death.
But it dared not.
Because Xue An had told it to cooperate.
So it could only obediently follow orders.
Otherwise, if it angered the adult… the consequences were something Jin Long dared not contemplate.
As for the others, they were busy with the release.
Today, Qin Yu and Han Yao were preparing to meet with the owner of the largest cinema chain company in the provincial city.
As long as they reached an agreement with him, the matter of the film’s release would be easy to settle.
But when they arrived, they were turned away without even a meeting.
Han Yao’s face turned pale with rage.
She couldn’t understand why everything she did had to be so difficult.
No matter how much of a fuss she made, the receptionist could only respond with a gentle smile, “I’m sorry, but our chairman is not present, and he has said that the release of the film can be discussed at a later date!”
In the end, Han Yao was on the brink of exploding, but it was Qin Yu who calmly pulled her away.
Once they got back to the hotel.
Han Yao threw herself onto the bed and didn’t want to get up anymore.
She even wanted to have a good cry.
Everything had been prepared, but what if the film couldn’t be released?
After hearing the news, Xue An also rushed over. Upon being briefed by Qin Yu, he frowned slightly, then laughed. “Where is that company located?” “Right here in the city!”
“Alright! I’ll take a trip there then!”
Having said that, Xue An turned and left the hotel.
The owner of the cinema chain was called Li Xiaokang.
He had been there all along, but he simply didn’t want to see Han Yao. After all, it was Xie Tianci who had personally called him, promising many benefits.
He didn’t need to offend the Xie Family for the sake of a movie.
At that moment, he was in his office, engulfed in clouds of smoke.
Suddenly.
Someone was knocking on the window outside.
He frowned, who was this impolite?
All of a sudden, he froze.
His office was on the twenty-eighth floor!
His flesh trembled, and he looked out the window in terror at the man with a hint of a smile on his face.
With a tap of Xue An’s finger, the tempered bulletproof glass shattered into pieces.
Then Xue An stepped inside, walking as leisurely as if he were strolling in a garden, and smiled at Li Xiaokang. “Are you Li Xiaokang?”
Li Xiaokang’s entire body stiffened.
That was bulletproof glass!
Yet under this man’s fingertip, it was as fragile as a layer of paper.
He turned pale and said, trembling, “Immortal, please spare my life, what is your command?”
Xue An took a seat in the chair, leisurely, and looked at Li Xiaokang.
An eerie silence filled the atmosphere.
Li Xiaokang felt as if the gaze of the man in front of him was like a sharp knife, slicing into him bit by bit.
“I heard… you don’t plan on releasing a certain movie?”
Li Xiaokang shuddered, then, as if understanding, he hastened to say, “Are you talking about God Slayer? It’s not that I don’t want to release it, it’s just that someone has sent their regards, and I don’t dare mess with them…”
“So you dare to mess with me?” Xue An said indifferently, his fingers casually sliding across the desk.
With each slide, the solid wood desk was silently and effortlessly sliced open as though it were butter.
Li Xiaokang’s face was ashen, “You… you…”.
“Relax, I won’t kill you. Just release the film properly, and as for the rest… I Il go settle things with them,” Xue An revealed his pearly white teeth.
“Understood?”
Li Xiaokang nodded frantically.
Xue An patted his chubby cheek with satisfaction, “If you don’t obey, I think, I could help you slim down!”
After finishing, Xue An walked to the broken window and with a step, soared away into the void.
Li Xiaokang stood in place, taking quite a long time to recover.
If it weren’t for the shattered glass on the floor, he would have thought all of this was just a dream.
Suddenly, he shuddered and quickly picked up the phone.
“Hello, get ready to release God Slayer!”
Sometimes violence isn’t the best method, but it’s always the fastest..
