"What happened just now?"
"It feels like Chi Shen has many secrets..."
"I'm a little curious about the item Chizai got."
"It's a prop with only a few flaws, so it's probably just average. Just wait and see..."
"Zhao Jinhua is actually quite pitiful. I heard that her husband couldn't stand her and ran away with someone else, leaving her and You Jing behind..."
"Then both of them come in..."
"Zhao Jinhua was so angry that she vowed to take revenge on her husband when her son became an adult, so she came in. Then You Jing wanted to find his mother, so he followed in..."
"Is that so? Then I guess You Jing's wish is to satisfy his mother or something like that..."
"Then I understand why Zhao Jinhua has not left. Is she waiting for You Jing to fulfill his wish before going out together? After all, it doesn't take a lot of points to get revenge on your husband, right?"
"That's not necessarily true. Desires have no limits. If the initial wish is fulfilled, won't there be many people who make additional wishes later? It's me. I first wished for a house of my own. After that wish was fulfilled, I would definitely wish for a car, luxury goods, a beautiful woman, or even to become the richest man in the world..."
"No, why should we leave? The real world isn't necessarily better than here, right?"
"I think Xia Yao seems to be interested in Xie Chi..."
"Come on."
…
The dark big screen lit up again, and this time it was a second definition of the quality of a horror film. The audience instantly fell silent, staring at the big screen intently.
On the big screen, the color of the lavender card "1552 Haunted House" is deepening.
"What the hell! So fast?!"
"Deep purple, deep purple!"
"Just a little bit more, damn——"
The audience held their breath.
On the big screen, the purple-to-black card trembled a few times, and finally turned its back. When it was opened again, it turned into a bright orange.
"It's upgraded! 1,000 yuan for a show that's brilliant! I made a killing of 500 yuan! 1,000 yuan is enough to watch two shows, and the good outweighs the bad!"
"Fuck! I had a feeling it would escalate, but when I actually saw it..."
"It seems that there are only three or four units that have upgraded from purple cards to orange cards this year?"
"Look, it's not over yet!"
After the purple card was upgraded to an orange card, it did not stop completely, and as the movie scenes flashed on the screen, its color continued to deepen!
The audience waited for a while in fear and excitement, watching the light orange card turn citrus color, their breath held.
This card was a light purple card a minute ago, but now it has been completely transformed and has become an orange card of very high grade.
"I told you that following Chi Shen is the right path!" A ghost said excitedly to the ghost beside him, "I followed him from his zombie movie, and his zombie movie has also been upgraded! Now it has been upgraded again, and I really made a lot of money along the way!"
"Holy shit, really? This isn't his first upgrade?"
"I feel that Zhao Jinhua indirectly made Xie Chi successful and made this film successful. It would have been impossible to upgrade. If it weren't for Zhao Jinhua and You Jing, the actors in this film would have only needed to know about the existence of the Sisters' Camp and mediate between the sisters to seek benefits for themselves. Look, the sister was still afraid that Zhao Jinhua would change the camp rewards in the end, which shows that there is a lot of room for negotiation..."
"In fact, I think it doesn't matter if no one finds out about the animal camp. As long as we maintain a balance and make the sisters have similar dynamic strength, they will fight each other and have no time to care about the actors. They also ask the actors to find teeth and organs for them. If they give the sister an organ, they will immediately give the sister a tooth. This will be absolutely fine. How many animals can they kill? They even found a menu. This is what a flawless movie should look like."
"Ah, it makes me angry when I hear that. Zhao Jinhua and You Jing have done a lot of harm to others!"
"Hehe, we are just talking about it after the fact. The process was interesting, but it's not as good as the perfect ending that Chi Zai has created now."
"right!"
…
There is an introduction under the orange card on the big screen: Orange Card "1552 Haunted House", the quality is wonderful.
Advantages: The leading actor Xie Chi turned the tide and made a comeback; the supporting actors sacrificed themselves fearlessly and cooperated tacitly; the confrontation between the two camps was dangerous and exciting; there were many twists and turns and climaxes; the rhythm was tight and the atmosphere was tense; the theme was novel; and the ending was satisfactory.
Disadvantages: The plot is forced in some places, which seems deliberate; the film is a bit long; other shortcomings are a matter of opinion and I will not judge them here.
According to the statistics:
The film received 97% positive reviews, and the leading male actor Xie Chi had 28,911 out of 30,000 fans, accounting for more than 90%.
Due to these two data, the film was successfully included in the three lists of "The Best Ghost Film of the Year", "The Most Worth-Seeing Haunted House Film of the Year", and "The Starring Roles We Were Crazy About in Those Years".
Movie upgrade rewards and income list rewards will be distributed to the actors’ mobile phones after the movie is completely finished.
"The movie "1552 Haunted House" is over. Thank you for watching."
The audience was satisfied and left the cinema like a receding tide.
…
"Xie Chi!" Lu Wen had been waiting in Xie Chi's office for a long time. When he saw him coming, he smiled and said, "My mermaid bloodline has been upgraded."
Xie Chi was stunned for a moment, then he understood. No wonder Lu Wen, who had paid so much, did not get any props. It turned out that the APP rewarded something other than props.
He patted Lu Wen on the shoulder and said with a smile, "Congratulations."
Lu Wen looked at him. He was humble and gentle, not at all like the cruel and ruthless Xie Chi in the movie.
"You are really——" Lu Wen was about to praise and thank him, but Xie Chi said perfunctorily: "It's boring to talk about me."
He blocked the conversation abruptly.
Lu Wen knew that he understood.
Xie Chi poured two glasses of water, handed him one, sat down comfortably on the chair, and asked, "What are your plans for the future? Will you still be with me?"
Lu Wen had obviously thought about this question as well, and said frankly, "No, I decided to go back to zombie movies."
"That's great." Xie Chi was not surprised. He felt that this was the best choice for Lu Wen. He said seriously, "In fact, it's really unfair for you to stay with me. You will definitely shine in zombie movies. If you stay with me, you will be forced to come into contact with completely unfamiliar and unsuitable things, which will limit your own development..."
Lu Wen smiled and said, "I haven't thought about that. If you need me, I will definitely go in with you without saying anything. I just know that you are a guy. A partner is not necessary for you. Having one is icing on the cake, but not having one is not a problem. Your future path will be much broader than mine, so I should find my place at this time and live my own life..."
Xie Chi was in a complicated mood: "Lu..."
He understood what Lu Wen meant. Lu Wen was afraid of dragging him down.
Lu Wen recalled the scene where Zhao Jinhua threatened Xie Chi with him and Ren Ze. His smile was a little bitter, but he soon felt relieved: "Xie Chi, you are already much stronger than me."
"In the future, I will join the mirror in being excited and proud of your achievements."
Xie Chi looked at him carefully and nodded slightly: "Thank you."
…
Xie Chi sent a message to Yan Jing on the APP and went home first.
The calendar on the desk showed that it was already late August and he had been connected to the APP for almost two months.
He currently has 3368 points, and 10,000 points are needed to fulfill his wish. He has already completed one third of it. In the future, the quality of the horror film will be better, and he will complete it faster.
Xie Chi smiled. So, if everything went well, he would be able to achieve his wish in less than half a year.
He is now a little curious about how big a wish Shen Yi, who has been in the APP for more than a year and almost two years, has made. Shen Yi's wish is estimated to start from 30,000 points.
The phone rang, Xie Chi threw away his messy thoughts and opened the APP.
[The movie quality upgrade and the rewards for being selected for the film list have been issued, please check. 】
Xie Chi was stunned, then smiled and looked through the rewards.
For each selected film list, you will be rewarded with 50 points, and for three, you will be rewarded with 150 points. As for the reward for upgrading the quality of the film...
Xie Chi paused.
[Because of your presence, the quality of the film has been upgraded. In addition, senior actor Zhao Jinhua has caused you inconvenience. The APP will issue rewards as compensation. 】
【Choose one of the two rewards. 】
[Reward 1: Because "1552" Haunted House is a ghost movie, you will randomly receive a ghost movie consumable prop of good quality; Reward 2: Because you have talent and have reached the awakening conditions, the APP exempts you from the 300 points consumed for awakening and awakens you in advance. Reward 1 and Reward 2 are basically the same in value, please make your choice. ]
talent?
This was the first time Xie Chi heard this word.
Just as Xie Chi was about to switch to the page to search for talent-related information, the APP had already sent it to him.
【Talent: Most people are born with extraordinary qualities and unique temperaments and personalities, so most people have talent. But the probability of triggering talent is not high, because the aspects you like may not be your talent; the aspects you often use and train may deviate from your talent. The loss of talent is not rare, and it is not worth regretting, because talent is just the icing on the cake. Because the conditions are harsh, the probability of awakening talent is not high. 】
[Specialty Talent: Do what you are talented at, and your talent will make you more efficient. Example: If you are a painter, and you have artistic talent, and awaken your artistic talent, you will be able to paint more beautiful paintings. This talent is not exclusive and can be obtained by many people. According to incomplete statistics, about 40% of actors can awaken this kind of talent. ]
【Talent derived from unique temperament and personality: This type of talent is mostly unique, and the probability of repetition is extremely small, almost negligible. This talent is born after birth under the combined effect of innate and acquired factors. The more unique the world view and the more unconventional the personality, the greater the possibility of having this talent. The probability of this talent being produced is much smaller than that of special talents. According to incomplete statistics: about 3~8% of actors can awaken this type of talent. 】
【Talents can be upgraded with use.】
[But please note that there is a chance that the talent is useless. And before awakening, the APP can only determine what kind of talent it is, but not what the specific talent is, let alone analyze the effect of the talent, so actors should choose carefully. ]
[Normally, an actor can only have one talent.]
[Generally speaking, once an actor has accumulated 5,000 points, they will have the possibility of awakening their talent.]
[Please browse the talents now——. ]
Xie Chi looked down and his pupils shrank.
There are two locks in the mobile phone column, the upper one is white, and the lower one is black, and on the back of both are written [Awakening conditions have been met, waiting to be triggered.], and both are second-type temperament and personality derived talents.
[It is detected that you have two second-class talents. The APP will awaken one of them for you. Now please choose reward one/reward two. 】
"Brother, brother." Xie Chi began to call out eagerly.
"Um?"
"It says there's usually only one actor, so is the black one yours?"
"I have no idea."
Xie Chi began to think: "Talents will awaken sooner or later, so if you choose a talent, you will earn 300 points and the right to use it in advance. If the talent is not useless and can help us in the APP, the sooner it awakens, the sooner we can enjoy it. Moreover, talents will be upgraded with use and proficiency, so of course the sooner the better..."
"Reward 1 is also very tempting. It's a horror movie prop with good quality but its flaws are not bad. The only downside is that it has a small scope of application and it's consumable. Once it's used up there's nothing left...Brother?"
"I'm listening."
"Then how do I choose?"
Xie Xinglan said: "Look at you."
"...Brother, give me some advice."
Xie Xinglan cut the Gordian knot: "Choose a prop."
"No, gift it..."
Xie Xinglan laughed: "Don't you have the answer?"
Xie Chi calmed down, and he was clear. He preferred talent. Lu Wen and Ren Ze both had upgradeable items, Lu Wen's bloodline, Ren Ze's healing skills. Since he entered the APP, most of the props he obtained were consumable. For him, this greatly improved his strength in the short term. For example, the gossip could injure Zhao Jinhua, but it would be gone after it was used up. After using it up, his strength would drop significantly. The only weapon with high applicability, which was scrapped by him. This is totally not a long-term solution.
"Then should I choose black or white..." Xie Chi asked again.
Xie Xinglan didn't hesitate: "White." If the white one is Xiaochi's, then he will definitely open the white one.
Xie Chi: "Okay, I choose the black one."
Xie Xinglan's voice paused: "...What's wrong with you?"
Xie Chi said: "I thought about it, it's hard to say what talents derived from my personality are. There is a high probability that they are useless, such as 'scam success probability bonus' and so on. Even if they are not useless, I guess their application range is small. They are functional. Your personality is more obvious, and your talents can mostly be used for fighting. And for me, it won't be too late to awaken after I get 5,000 points. It's not like I will lose them if I miss it once."
What Xie Chi didn't say was that he was also genuinely curious about his brother's talent.
Xie Xinglan: "...So you're asking me the meaning?"
Xie Chi snickered and said seriously: "I'm telling you that you have the right to participate in the discussion."
"Little rascal." Xie Xinglan laughed helplessly.
Xie Chi suppressed the corners of his mouth, and with a gambling mentality, he chose the unlocking black talent in reward 2 with a bit of trepidation.
The lock of black talent in the column is opened.
[Congratulations on awakening your talent: The weak defeats the strong. ]
【To fight without fighting is to fight deeply; to defeat the strong with the weak is to be the strongest. 】
[Talent Effect: When you fight an opponent stronger than you (it doesn't matter if it's a human, ghost, or monster, as long as it's stronger than you), you will gain a basic 20% increase in strength (this increase can be upgraded with use); there is a very small chance of triggering the demon realm, the effect is unknown.]
