Tianjin, Fei Niao Films.
Director Ning Zhixing banged his hand on the table, slavering as he spoke, “Look at this, look at this. Others only produced a low-budget movie, with at most tens of thousands. A film just more than ten minutes. Look at how popular it is! Ah! We also make movies, but how come there’s such a big gap between us?!”
One of the staff mumbled, “Why don’t you look at the featured rank...”
“Featured rank?” Ning Zhixing moved a few steps forward and splattered saliva all over the staff’s face as he spoke, “That’s ability. Without ability, nobody would care about you. With the kind of script you produce, do you think anyone will feature your production?!”
The staff was stunned and speechless.
...
Shanghai, Tianhai City, Wind Pursuer Films.
“Difference, this is the difference!” Director Wang Haoqi sighed. “Small production, small indeed! The film we made using five million yuan the last time only earned eight million in the box office. Deducting all the expenses, we only made about a million. But look at this.” Wang Haoqi pointed at the screen of his laptop. “A small production that only cost tens of thousands was downloaded more than a million times! Ten cents per download—that will come up to more than a hundred thousand! How long has it been? How long?”
One of the staff softly replied, “About... about half a day...”
“Half a day! More than a million downloads in half a day, that’s a profit of fifty thousand! And it has just begun!” Wang Haoqi reluctantly said, “With the speed of things, there will be 20 million downloads a month at the least. That’s a profit of one million! An investment of 50,000 yuan in exchange for one million! That aside, think about the profit from advertisements.”
One of the staff replied, “About... about three million...”
“Three million? Not even close! More!” Wang Haoqi said, “From the popularity now, if he were willing to insert an advertisement, at least five million!
“Huge gap! This is really a huge gap!”

When Unexpectedly! came out, it kicked up a storm in the film entertainment industry. Almost all the film companies within the country held internal meetings. And there was only one topic up for discussion—Hong Dali’sUnexpectedly! .
But it was clear that the storm that Unexpectedly! had brought about had just begun.
...
A man was talking to his girlfriend, who was mad at him. “Rou Rou, don’t be angry, okay? I’m sad when you get mad at me. Besides, staying angry is no good for your skin. Don’t be mad anymore.”
The woman appeared upset and pouted as she said, “How can I not be angry? You cannot even be bothered with me usually.”
The man held the woman’s hand carefully. “I know. How about we watch a movie together? I heard that there’s a very popular movie recently. Shall we go to watch it? Okay?”
The woman was slightly reluctant but agreed. “O... Okay...”
At the internet cafe, he turned on the computer, and the movie promptly started. “Unexpectedly, my principals are gone...”
The upset woman couldn’t hold back any longer and burst out laughing. Pu chi!
Five minutes later, they had their hands intertwined.
The woman said, “If I get kidnapped by the demon king, will you save me?”
The man laughed as he replied, “Yes. But I would definitely bring a better weapon. Better than the shiny toy sword in the show. Hehe.”
The woman said, “Um, the demon king would definitely be stronger. You have to be careful.”
The man said, “No matter how strong the demon king is, I will beat him.”
...
In the hospital, a man lifted his shirt for the doctor’s examination. “Doctor, take a look at my illness. Will you prescribe more medicine for me? Doctor, have I recovered?”
The doctor smiled as he said, “You have almost recovered. You will not need any more medicine.”
Upon hearing this, the man was upset and reluctant. “How can that be? How can I not need any medicine? Doctor, do you really think I have recovered?”
The doctor was stunned and perplexed by the man’s words. He hesitated and said, “Um, maybe not completely. Perhaps I should give you some medicine?”
Hearing what the doctor said, the man’s face brightened up. “That’s right. I want medicine from Tang Medical Enterprise!”
The old doctor was confused. “Erm... Why must it be Tang Medical Enterprise’s medicine?”
The man shook his head and said, “Tang Medical Enterprise, don’t stop taking the medication! Haven’t you heard of this, doctor? You’re too out of date!”
The old doctor picked up the pen and started writing a bunch of prescriptions, and a few minutes later, the man happily walked out of the consultation room. The old doctor shook his head. “It’s weird. There are actually people who would want to take so much medicine. Don’t stop taking the medication?”
Indeed, all the medicine that the old doctor prescribed was from Tang Medical Enterprise. When the patients took their medicine, they were elated and laughed as they collected their medicine. “Don’t stop taking the medication. This is good!”
...
Major supermarkets across the country.
A young man asked as he walked into the supermarket, “Boss, Do you have Might? Give me a carton!”
The boss looked vexed. “No... I don’t have any more of it... It’s true.”
The young person was flushed with agitation as he banged on the table. “Damn! You don’t even have Might? Why are you even open? I have been to five supermarkets, but all Might was sold out! I feel uneasy if I don’t drink Might every day. Don’t you know?”
The supermarket’s boss was on the verge of tears. “I don’t wish for this to happen either. I have just called to ask them to send six boxes here, but they were all sold out in half an hour. All of them said the same thing—they feel uneasy if they don’t drink Might every day. They even said that if they don’t drink Might, there’s no reason to work at all. Aside from that, is Might really so delicious?”
The young person rubbed his chin. “What do you know! Damn. Too many people feel the same. I’ll go ask at another supermarket.”
After the young person left.
The boss was perplexed. “Eh, that’s too weird. Is Might really so delicious?”
As he was thinking, another young person walked in. The boss asked, “You’re here. You want two bottles of Fierce Bull?”
The young person looked like he couldn’t care less. “Who still drinks Fierce Bull? Everyone drinks Might these days. Might is the right way to go! I feel uneasy if I don’t drink Might every day! Boss, please don’t tell me you don’t have it here either. I have asked several supermarkets, and they were all sold out. If you don’t have it here, I can only order it directly from the supplier!”
The boss looked depressed. “The problem is, I really don’t have stock. Could it be something else?”
The younger person pouted. “Can the others be compared to Might? Drink Might, acquire Might. This won’t do. I have to quickly ask the other supermarkets. Otherwise, I’ll feel uneasy!”
