Prodigal System in the Flourishing City

Chapter 600: Chapter 598 Completion of Filming [Fifth Update]

In a state where everyone on the crew was erupting with energy, fighting a desperate battle, film shooting progressed rapidly!

Even many times, the actors hadn’t even said they were tired, but the crew was worn out!

And lots of things were happening simultaneously!

Chen Feiyang calculated, and it turned out that they only needed a total of two weeks to finish filming.

When he worked out that timeline, even he was startled!

Holy shit, that’s a record!

Incredibly fast! And the quality is unquestionably top-notch!

Of course, Young Master Bu’s financial input was also unquestionably generous!

In Bright Sword, many scenes take place in winter, and to seek authenticity, Young Master went to great lengths to create artificial snow and ice, even covering half a mountain at one point!

The cost of that goes without saying!

...

And during this period, the online uproar about the Koreans had passed!

So, slowly, under the guidance of Xia Jie and others, the topics returned to Xiaobu’s own affairs.

”It’s been so long, Xiaobu hasn’t said anything, is he under investigation?”

”Yeah! There has to be an explanation for this!”

”Right, there must be an explanation, if Xiaobu is wronged, he deserves to be cleared!”

”Exactly, exactly!”

”By the way, did you hear that Xiaobu is filming a TV drama, did you know?”

”What TV drama?”

”It seems to be about the War of Resistance against Japan.”

”No way, not another one of those godly anti-Japanese dramas?! Has Xiaobu fallen too?”

”How can I not believe it! Xiaobu shooting that kind of trash?!”

”Maybe he knows he’s going to be investigated soon, trying to cash in one last time?!”

”Possibly!”

...

While they were discussing,

Xiaobu officially made a statement: ”Yeah, I am actually filming a TV drama. I reckon in a few days, I’ll be able to share it with everyone. Yes, it’s an anti-Japanese drama!”

Hearing Xiaobu’s confirmation,

suddenly, everyone’s attention was drawn to this matter!

After all, they had just resisted the Koreans, now Xiaobu is about to resist the Japanese, how could they not pay attention!

Such sentiments are contagious!

”Whoa, it’s actually true!”

”Young Master Bu, what’s happening? Are you really filming one of those ’kill hundreds of Japanese soldiers’ godly dramas?!”

”Jeez, what garbage!”

”I really don’t want to watch it!”

”It might not be bad! Don’t forget, Young Master Bu once made ’A Chinese Odyssey’! I think it won’t be a bad film!”

”Exactly, trust in Young Master Bu!”

”Definitely a masterpiece, I will definitely watch it!”

...

At the same time.

Xia Jie: ”Dammit! Xiaobu’s moves are really diverse! He had just led the rhythm against the Koreans, and now here comes an anti-Japanese drama?!”

Zhan Longyan: ”Can’t deny that! Bloody hell! Now we’ve been led by his tempo again!”

Xia Jie: ”Why are we always on the defensive? Always being led by the nose by this Xiaobu!”

Zhan Longya: ”No worries! This kid won’t get away with it. The film industry has already communicated with me, they’ll deal with the TV drama issue! He won’t be hopping around for much longer!”

Xia Jie: ”Alright! Good! Then let’s wait a while longer!”

They really had a grudge burning in their hearts!

Every time they dealt with Xiaobu, he easily resolved it.

They felt it was an embarrassment!

The top of the Second Level Rich List and the second, joining forces and yet they couldn’t handle one Xiaobu?!

Truly, it was damn embarrassing!

...

Film industry.

”Yo, talk about speed!”

”Tsk tsk tsk, Xiaobu is all for speed!”

”What’s the use?! Yes, he’s racing against time, and he won over, did it before the Korean controversy ended! But what good is this trash that only chases after speed, not quality, oh, and it’s an anti-Japanese godly drama, going to do?!”

”Forget it, let’s not consider the quality of his TV drama for now! Let’s think about how to deal with him!”

”Yes, regardless of whether it’s a rotten drama, if it gets aired, that’s a slap in our face!”

”Let’s start! Take action!”

”Let him see who really has the say in the film circle!”

...

So, the film industry bigwigs, who harbored deep hatred towards Xiaobu, started to align and make their move.

...

Lu Family.

”Young Master, they’ve started to move,” Liang Lan said with a dark expression. ”The several TV stations we talked to before have all said they won’t buy or broadcast it!”

”Even Director Nie from Shimen TV Station, who usually has a good relationship with us, is hesitating and making excuses!”

”Yep, I already guessed that would happen. These bastards wouldn’t stand still! Arrange a visit to Shimen TV Station,” arranged Xiaobu.

”Yes, Young Master,” Liang Lan responded.

...

Shimen TV Station.

In Director Nie’s office.

”Director Nie, how have you considered? Do you support a crumbling Xiaobu, or do you cooperate with us?” The representative from the film company sat on the sofa and said with ease.

”This...”

Director Nie was in a difficult position.

On one hand was Xiaobu, who brought glory to Shimen TV Station, and he owed him a huge favor, which he couldn’t fail to repay!

But on the other hand, it was the alliance of so many film companies, even saying it was the entire film industry wouldn’t be too much.

If he didn’t cooperate with them, things could get really bad!

To put it simply, if they united to breach the contract.

Then Shimen TV Station would completely run out of TV dramas to air, and that would really be a step into Hell!

”Do you still need to hesitate?”

The person in charge crossed his arms and looked at Director Nie: ”You’re more than clear about Xiaobu’s matters, aren’t you?”

”Whether he has connections with Zhang Benhu, you are well aware! Just based on that, he’s done for!”

”Even if you help him now, it’s just a matter of whether he dies sooner or later, why should you risk your personal future and the future of the entire Shimen TV Station to go down with him?!”

The person in charge spoke very firmly!

Shimen TV Station’s relationship with Xiaobu, of course, they knew very well, so Shimen TV Station was their top priority to deal with!

”Let me think over it!”

Director Nie was struggling intensely in his mind.

To be honest!

He actually agreed with what the person in charge said.

He also felt that Xiaobu was indeed finished!

But a skinny camel is still bigger than a horse!

If he didn’t help Xiaobu, Xiaobu could deal with him at any minute!

Now he was really caught between a rock and a hard place!

To help or not to help.

At this moment, Xiaobu walked in directly: ”Director Nie, long time no see!”

A flippant greeting passed through the air.

In an instant, the temperature in the entire room dropped by several degrees!

Director Nie’s heart skipped a beat—Xiaobu had arrived!

But he hadn’t finished considering yet!

What to do!
