The snow-capped streets spread all the way up both sides of the street, with houses like Lego blocks spread out in a staggered manner and gentle hills climbing up gradually underfoot.
 
Walking through the quiet roads of the town, the view suddenly opens up to a wide and gentle platform space, with the steep hills and rolling mountains behind it like a natural barrier that blocks out the world. The thick snow covers up the lush greenery and replaces it with silver ski trails that wind down through the dark green forest, outlining a leisurely glimpse of winter.
 
Park City, not far from Salt Lake City, Utah, is known for its skiing and world-famous for the Sundance Film Festival. All of this seems to have a similarity to Telluride. In fact, the two towns, even the layout and style are somewhat similar.
 
The difference is that when the Telluride Film Festival is held, people are still seizing the end of summer, wearing short sleeves and holding Coke, sunbathing on the lawn and enjoying the leisure brought by movies; when the Sundance Film Festival is held, the winter is cold and windy, people are wearing down jackets and holding hot coffee, walking back and forth between the major theaters, welcoming the event belonging to independent films.
 
Since 1983, the Sundance Film Festival, founded by Robert Redford, is now in its twenty-seventh year and has become the largest independent film gathering destination in the United States and the world, with hundreds of independent filmmakers gathering here every year to celebrate.
 
Compared to Telluride's star-studded scene, every year Park City welcomes a large number of new and unfamiliar faces, where there is no awards season, no academy PR, and no commercial hustle and bustle.
 
Telluride can invite such big names as "The King's Speech", "The Social Network" and "127 Hours" to participate in the award season's top films, allowing fans some liberty, but Sundance is all about debut directors, unheard of independent directors, independent works that are hard to win the attention of the awards season, cult films with a unique style, movies, everything is about movies and only about movies.
 
Of course, the film "Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid" is another story that brings together the two distinctive festivals of Telluride and Sundance.
 
This week, "Like Crazy" is coming to this year's Sundance Film Festival.
 
For a small-budget production with less than $250,000, "Like Crazy" is in an even more bleak position than "Buried".
 
"Buried" cost at least $3 million to make, and part of that was for publicity, so "Buried" was able to enter the Toronto Film Festival and ride the wave to the ranks of the Telluride Film Festival; but "Like Crazy" didn't have that money.
 
They didn't have the money to go to the smaller European festivals to explore the market, and they didn't even have the means to participate in some of the North American festivals, because each of them required registration fees, and then the crew went to the festival to promote the film, and the bus fare, accommodation, food, costumes, etc. were all expenses.
 
Sundance is their only choice - in Park City, independent films enjoy certain privileges; at the same time, Sundance is also their only chance, if they can't find a suitable distributor here, the crew will be in a difficult situation, and it's likely that they won't even be able to enter the art house, which means that the $250,000 investment would be wasted.
 
Perhaps for those rich independent film companies, $250,000 is still a loss. But for Drake Doremus, but can not afford to lose.
 
So, after the Golden Globes, Renly ended a series of brief promotions for "Buried" and then arrived in Park City all the way to Sundance for the promotion of "Like Crazy".
 
However, before the official launch of the campaign, Renly won precious time to return to his fan status and enjoy the Sundance Film Festival.
 
In this town, "Mulholland Drive" is more popular than "The King's Speech", and "The Social Network" is even less popular than "The Guest". If the choice is between "Inception" and "Synecdoche, New York", the former will always be the loser. "Winter's Bone," which made a splash here last year, has been mentioned repeatedly, but people are complaining that the mainstream market has not appreciated the excellence of this work at all ...
 
In front of the cinema, next to the street, in front of the café ... every public place, at any time and anywhere, a small group of people may gather, standing in twos and threes, heatedly discussing their feelings about the movie they just watched. Sometimes, after a movie screening, the entrance to the cinema may gather six or seven small teams, each expressing their own views, passing fans wandering between different teams, looking for their like-minded partners.
 
There are no introductions, no pleasantries, the only way to communicate is through your own opinions and views. This wonderful and unique way of making friends can be said to be one of the brightest scenes at Sundance.
 
At this time, Renly stood next to a small group, not easily open, but listened carefully to their views, and then and their own ideas to confirm each other.
 
"No, I don't think the sci-fi element is the most important thing, it explores our attitude towards mistakes, and thus derives to the attitude towards life ..."
 
"It's a science fiction movie! You're actually saying that the sci-fi elements aren't important? Then what's the most important thing? There's "Another Earth" hanging in the sky, are you just blind to it?"
 
What they were discussing was the movie that had just finished screening, "Another Earth", a small-budget science fiction work that came out of nowhere with a stunning presence. Almost everyone was eager to express their views and opinions.
 
Unlike Toronto, where every work is given a warm following, and also unlike Toronto, which is more or less influenced by the word of mouth of the critics, at Sundance, everyone has their own unique ideas, or right or wrong, or profound or superficial, but what is certain is that everyone is willing to express their opinions and share their views.
 
Seizing the moment, Renly opened his mouth and cut into their conversation.
 
"Both of you are off in your understanding. That is only the first layer of the movie, the real hidden idea in the core of the script is that in parallel spaces, parallel universes, different factors lead to different results, but it is always the same person who makes the choice."
 
Unknowingly, everyone listened sideways to Renly's point of view.
 
"So, when the person's consciousness has all changed, his bilocation in different parallel spaces, or the same person? Or is it that it has split into very different personalities? But if it is split, then is there any point in discussing parallel spaces? Because the other space is already a stranger, no longer himself, we can look at it as another person in the same world, in a different country or a different region, with similar experiences making different choices. The very concept of parallel space has lost its meaning."
 
The discussion, which had been a fierce firefight, suddenly came to a halt because of Renly's words, and the abrupt silence seemed somewhat raw. Surprisingly, no one interrupted such a long discussion, and everyone was caught up in their own thoughts, and it was clear that they were struggling to find the loopholes in Renly's words, and then ready to wait for an opportunity to refute them.
 
At a time when science fiction films are becoming more and more clichéd and genre-driven, it is difficult to find a science fiction work that is fundamentally sound, theoretically sound, and capable of bringing surprises. Who would have thought that this year's Sundance Film Festival would really find a treasure! The appearance of "Another Earth" is really exciting.
 
What's even more rare is that the lead actress of this work, Brit Marling, is also one of the screenwriters, with a bright appearance, good acting skills, and great talent, which is definitely the biggest harvest since Sundance opened three days ago. Moreover, she is only twenty-eight years old.
 
After the screening, it was time for an explosion of ideas, and the audience couldn't wait to discuss - and even argue - about the film, each eager to voice their opinions and share their thoughts. Suddenly, Renly dropped a bombshell, causing everyone to chew on it and think about it.
 
On the other hand, it is clear that "Another Earth" is a good work worth thinking about.
 
"So how do you define parallel space? You mean, everyone's character is the same, so when faced with the same situation, we will still make the same choice, does this mean that the results of different parallel spaces are the same, so that the meaning of parallel space does not exist."
 
Suddenly, a voice came inserted next to him, but no one felt strange, it was a fest that was open to all to participate in the discussion.
 
The person who spoke was a "newcomer" who had just passed by, and after stopping, he joined the discussion directly, cutting into the conversation loudly, and then succeeded in attracting the attention of the crowd.
 
Renly followed the voice and looked over. It was a female audience.
 
Science fiction movies undoubtedly have a huge fan base, and there is no shortage of women among them, but considering the huge base, women are still a small part after all. So, among the geeks and geeks, a female viewer will immediately be treated like a star, and everyone sees it as a rare treasure.
 
But at the moment, everyone was so caught up in the topic of the two men's argument that no one actually looked up to notice the female viewer for a while. Typical geek, isn't it?
 
What surprised Renly was not the gender of the viewer in front of him, but her identity.
 
With snowy skin, long red hair and hard features, she was not a first-look beauty, but had a hard, valiant, heroic look, and even a few small freckles on the tip of her nose left a lasting impression. Hers is Jessica Chastain!

After getting the final relief from his past sufferings, Chu Jiashu was given a second chance when he found himself in the body of an infant from an aristocratic family of Hall. Now, nothing is going to stop him from achieving his long-cherished dream of acting. Enter Renly Hall, a Hollywood miracle of 21st century.


Note from the translator - from me, that is.
   
"Honestly, I get frustrated too much when I look at countless subpar novels being translated day after day. So much human resources wasted. I kinda get what Qidian International is doing, but it is just, I can't bear the notion of having so many wonderful novels that belong to the Chinese platform to be left in the dust. English-speaking community should know of the existence of such brilliant works, and more so, they should enjoy them. The novel is by a Chinese dude "Qiqi Jia D Mao Mao", whatever that might mean, who wrote several showbiz novels (he is probably the best at what he is doing). It is not my work, I'm just a dude who, with the help of two free machine translators (DeepL and good ol' Google), can show you a hidden gem. Wait, you said machine translators? Sadly, yes. I can't speak Chinese at all, but fortunately, this novel is structured in a machine-translation-friendly way, like really so. Most of the time context is saved. I'm just polishing the edges with my superb (not really) editing skills, so you all chaps have a splendid experience with this good staff indeed. Actually, you can go and read machine translation or just wait for my updates. Up to you dudes and dudies. And then I go away...blewb, blewb, blewb, blewb, blewb....."

P.S.
"I am a knife for a hire. So the managers of the site can employ me for this novel, but please don't remove it. Oh, please, I'm begging you on my knees. You guys won't even think of translating this novel, and here I am "translating" it for free,.... well for the time being, that is mwahahaha!"

P.S. for P.S.
This novel does not contain the following:
Harem, definitely not NTR, stupid characters, NTR again (God, I hate NTR (secretly beating the meat for a one in hentai))

But this novel contains:
Great storyline, relatable characters, realistic situations, very fun moments as well as tear jerking ones (so much so, you will find your throat hella sore from crying all the time), surprise after surprise for the decisions that author went with.

You will have a good time indeed
WARNING! READ AT YOUR OWN DISCRETION!

"Old Shen, do you have the confidence?" Shen Xi offered her father a fist bump.
Shen Zhangqing bumped her fist and said, "You must trust your father, do you understand? Apart from being fat, your dad is fine, and his brain still functions normally!"
Shen Xi happily returned to her room to prepare her proposal.
Shen Zhangqing watched as his daughter hummed a tune and skipped joyfully into her room. Then, he embraced Yun Jinping with red-rimmed eyes. "Don't worry, dear. I won't let you and Xixi down."
Yun Jinping nodded and replied with a hoarse voice, "How much pain has our Xixi endured at the Su family?"
Shen Zhangqing comforted her, "She's grown up and can't remain a child forever. She has matured, and we should be happy about it."
Their daughter used to be a bit stubborn and feisty, yet innocent. She had become more reliable after living with the Su family.
"I don't want her to be so mature." Yun Jinping grieved.
Of course, she knew that it was a good thing that her daughter had matured.
Nonetheless, her daughter had to go through so much misery before attaining her maturity!
Halfway through her draft, Shen Xi's received a notification on QQ[1]. Her website's editor sent her a message and informed her that someone wanted to buy the rights to her novel. She was asked whether she was willing to sell it.
Every girl had a dream of becoming a princess. She would dream of her Prince Charming, who would visit her on his white steed and marry her.
Back when she was still a naïve little girl, she loved to daydream.
When she was in middle school, she would serialize novels on the web.
At first, she wrote about princes and princesses.
When her writing skills improved, she published a few novels about high school romances.
It sounded embarrassing. Until today, her wiki profile still stated that she was a well-known writer of highschool love stories.
Later, as print media gradually became obsolete, she got busier than usual.
The publication requirements were strict and she did not have the time to edit her stories every day. She was not in urgent need of the money either, so she changed her pseudonym and wrote romance stories on the web.
It was her first work after switching to writing web novels and a cross between the genres of political fiction, historical fiction and fantasy. The female lead, who survived a genocide, came back with a vengeance. The series was known as "The Favored Advisor of the Golden Age". 
Later, it got published and the rights to the novel were sold. It was adapted as a web series known as "The Smiling Nation". However, the story was heavily butchered and the show was widely regarded as a flop.
Much later, Shen Xi's legs and hands were crippled and her face got disfigured. After her dream of becoming a celebrity was smashed to smithereens, she began to delve into her own world. Words were the only things that could calm her troubled soul.
When her personality changed and became more inspired, she started writing science fiction. She published around 20 science fiction novels.
The ideas and scope surrounding science fiction novels were massive and not easy to adapt for the big screen. Hence, when she was still alive, her books became bestsellers and accumulated a large fanbase. The rights to her novels were expensive, but there were no film adaptations.
Throughout her writing career, her editor, publisher and fans only knew of her pseudonym. She kept her real identity a secret. 
This information was classified. Yet, after her death, all of her achievements were falsely claimed by Su Ruowan.
Su Ruowan appropriated her pseudonym and won the Hugo Award using Shen Xi's novels, thus becoming China's number one science-fiction novelist.
Her old pseudonym was brought up as well.
The media and fans went into a frenzy as they worshipped the talented Su Ruowan.
Eventually, "The Favored Advisor of the Golden Age" was adapted as a film and it was a tremendous success. Her other science fiction novels were not neglected either, as, one-by-one, films were made for each of them. They became blockbusters and were world-famous.

In her past life, Shen Xi always longed for love and validation from her parents, members of the wealthy Su family. Unfortunately, the attention that she yearned for was stolen by the family’s fake heiress – her elder sister, Su Ruowan. 
As a result of Su Ruowan’s evil plans, Shen Xi was crippled, disfigured and eventually died of leukemia. However, in a surprising turn of events, Shen Xi was reborn. Returned to the time when she was a seventeen-year-old teenager, she’ll set things right and get her revenge against the Su family. 


Pizza for me is one of the best foods ever, it has always been one of my favourite dishes with pasta and lasagne. If I were the me of yesteryear I would also eat it for lunch, but unfortunately the me of yesteryear is no longer there and so I can already feel the guilt resurfacing and my mind is looking for an excuse not to eat it or not to eat  tomorrow. It is still difficult for me to be able to eat with serenity even the pasta that I would previously have eaten for lunch and dinner.  
My feelings of guilt are interrupted by my phone ringing and telling me that I have received a text message. I get up from the table and put my plate in the sink and then  I go to my room. I throw myself on the bed and open WhatsApp and  I see a message from Alison: 
Alison: *Hey, how are you? How about you come over on Friday and we'll have a girls-only sleepover?
*All right, but this time I decide the movie* I reply.
The last time I was at her place she made me watch a horror movie and she knows how much I hate those movies, more than anything else. She knows that they make me scared and that I don't sleep. In fact, to say that I saw that film is an understatement, as I had my face splattered against the pillow and my ears plugged. I usually prefer romantic and comedy films, I also like science fiction films but not horror films. Once my brothers made me watch a movie called "The Mother" and I didn't sleep for two days or more because I was afraid that  something would come out from under the bed or the wardrobe or even the wall or the ceiling.
Alison: *This is to be seen*
I smile shaking my head knowing that maybe this time she'll let me pick the movie.
I  check the posts on the class group noticing that they don't know what they have to do for maths lessons and they keep sending each other memes and stickers. I roll my eyes not because they're stupid, but because none of them, especially Noah, are engaging and paying attention in class. I put my phone down and start pulling out the books for the subjects I need to study. I start by making notes of history and then continue with Italian. I already did maths at the weekend as I had nothing to do. I don't usually study everything straight away, but I find myself at the last minute even though I promise myself each time to study as I go along. I do quite well at school, I'm not a genius but not bad either. The subjects I hate the most are history, Italian and literature. I love all scientific subjects, a little less physics, which depends on the topic. I like chemistry and biology a lot, but the one I like the most (and I think it's clear) is mathematics. At school I've always been good at science subjects, I've always put a lot of effort into them, I put more effort into them than into Italian and the other subjects, but I've always had a weakness for science. 
While I'm taking notes in Italian I hear someone knocking at the door.
"Come in," I say, keeping my eyes on my notebook.                                                       
"Hey, George and I are seeing The Flash. . . Do you have much longer?"                     
"Actually yes, but you guys go ahead, I'll watch it later on my own" I tell Josh, smiling at him. 
My brothers and I have many things in common and TV series is one of them. We've watched a lot of series together and a lot of movies too. The Flash is one of my favourite shows because it's all about science fiction and Grant Gustin is so cool. Of course, understanding what he says and all the scientific and physical theories is complicated but I like it as a series. Some people say it's repetitive but I don't think so and they say that because they've never seen it properly. Another series that we watched together, although I practically forced them to, is Teen Wolf. This is also a supernatural series about teenagers who turn into werewolves. They didn't want to watch it but in the end the television was always occupied by me and they watched it with me. For my birthday they gave me a computer so now if I want to watch a series that they might not like, I use that. 
I close my books and pack my backpack when I finish my homework and pick up the phone and  I look at the time. It's half past seven and the group is still sending stickers. There were 100 messages before, but now there are 500 and I wonder how it is possible to write so much. I am the typical girl who reads but  she doesn't comment. I am like a ghost and I prefer to remain a ghost. 
I am very shy and those, who know me well, know that. I am reserved and I like to be alone sometimes. I listen to music practically all the time and more when I am sad. Music allows me to travel with my mind and feel better. I mostly like sad music, songs about a love that ended badly or well. I rarely listen to happy, upbeat music, but when I do, I'm really happy and there are very few happy moments in my life. My favourite singers are Ed Sheeran, Harry Styles and I used to listen to Shawn Mendes, but lately I'm not listening to him anymore and I don't know why. I recently discovered a band called Five Seconds Of Summer (5sos) and I have to say that they are really good and I like them a lot. I also listen to Italian and Spanish music.
So you could say that music helps me escape from the real world around me which is not as I would like it to be. My life is quite simple and monotonous and I don't have anything special. The only thing I am proud of are my friends and family, or rather, some members of my family.

Rebeca is the classic 17-year-old girl, shy, very unsure of herself. She is in a very difficult period of her life from which she cannot get out. Nathan, on the other hand, is the classic guy who goes with everyone and doesn't want serious relationships. When their destinies collide, something unexpected happens in both of them. In her because she never felt anything like that, in him because he didn't think he could love another person outside of himself. They will learn that the difficulties, although they seem hard and insurmountable, can be overcome, you just need to put the right will and be strong.
If you are curious about how Nathan and Rebeca will overcome their problems and their story then you just have to click on 'read' and you will find out.
I hope you like it and I ask you to be kind because I am not a writer but I wanted to write down this story that was in my head.

PLEASE READ THE PREMISE BECAUSE IT'S VERY IMPORTANT!

This book is like a diary. I wrote my thoughts, my experiences. I hope you enjoy it even if I'm not English. There can be, surely, grammatical mistakes but please... Take some time to read this book because I put all myself in it and if you have some doubts or corrections, they will be appreciate. 
I'm new and I don't know the app and how it works but I try. If you are a boy, you can read it because a book it's for all and not for a genre.

What lies were they embracing? This was the lie that a very large number of people in Merica chose to believe without even thinking: The lie that all the advanced technologies of Z country were stolen from Merica. This lie had been repeated for a thousand times, 10,000 times, by the politicians of Merica and their media. This lie appeared in every corner of the country. Not only did the majority of Merican citizens believe this lie, but even the creators of such lies believed them on a subconscious level. Hence, they then subconsciously continued to spread such lies.
"But what they don't know is that lies are always lies! Even if it is repeated a thousand times, 10,000 times, it is still a lie! It cannot become a so-called 'truth.' It is very easy to expose this kind of lie. We'll simply let the people of Merica experience the products of Xing Hai Technologies. The people of Merica will discover that Xing Hai Technologies' products have powerful functions, that they are irreplaceable and bring about endless convenience. But there is no Merican company that has launched similar products. When scientists in Merica find out that their country has missed out on a golden opportunity and are starting to fall behind because of the arrogance and stupidity of the politicians, I believe that they will then voice their rationality and clarity, criticizing the lies that are poisoning the future of Merica. This will allow the M country to wake up from their dream of ridiculous self-importance. Actually, this kind of mentality from Merica country is very normal. Our country experienced it too. At that time, our rulers thought that Z country was a 'celestial empire lacking for nothing.' They regarded science and technology as 'strange and dirty tricks.' They closed themselves off from the world and lived in their own happy little bubble. They chose to isolate the country. In the end, they quickly became a joke when they were faced with the colonists' unyielding ship and powerful cannons. The impact quickly caused them to go into a state of extreme inferiority. For the next 200 years, this led to the subservient spirit of Z people, which still persists in some today. It's hard to stand up tall again. This is the consequence of indulging in lies! Now Merica has also sunk into a self-numbing state. Well, we'll congratulate them; they should stay in this state of arrogance for a while more! The longer they remain arrogant, the longer they will be stuck in an inferior state in the future, maybe even double the time! Seeing the huge gap between us, I think that even some Mericans couldn't help but feel inferior and subservient. As for those who are still repeating lies like good little robots, they will get the retribution that they deserve. They will be completely crammed into the trash can like a pile of ugly garbage. The more arrogant they are now, the worse they will fall. They will only feel a greater sense of frustration and disappointment."
Therefore, their lies could not hurt Xing Hai Technologies. Ultimately they would only be hurting their own interests and self-esteem. Chen Jin would not be afraid of such accusations and attacks. "Old Ling, if this is the case, then make a declaration: If Merica does not revoke the sanctions against Xing Hai Technologies, we cannot commence a working partnership with Merica. Unless the sanctions are revoked! Only then is it possible for the two sides to collaborate." To be honest, the country that currently had the highest level of scientific research and the best quality of scientists on earth should still be Merica. The majority of the world's top scientific research talents were working in Merica.
Chen Jin was rather covetous of these talents. As a result, due to the opposition by the Congress of Merica, his plan to absorb top talents could be described as a "partial failure." But Chen Jin was not in a hurry! "100% Science Lab" was a game that was accelerating the development of the earth's technology at a speed ten times faster as compared to previous years. If the Merican congress delayed for a day, other countries would have made 10 days worth of progress. If the Merican congress delayed for a year, other countries would have made 10 years worth of progress. If they insisted on being so stubborn; let's see who gives in first!
Moreover, the level of science and technology on Haierfa was more than 200 years ahead. The scientists on earth were still in the "remedial" stage. Currently, there was not much use for them. So it was not urgent. Chen Jin was not in a hurry at all. In fact, he was eager for the Merican Congress to waste two more years until they felt that something was wrong.
"Hmm, I understand, President Chen." Ling Jundong nodded.
　　...
In Mid-February, shortly after the release of the foreign edition of "100% Science Lab," Xing Hai Technologies made another major move. They announced their entry into the entertainment sector. With a capital injection of 3 billion, they established a subsidiary company called "Xing Hai Entertainment."
The entertainment businesses that this subsidiary company planned to get into included novels, advertisements, movies, animation, music, and so on. For the novel category, he intended to create a "Xing Hai Sci-fi Novel Platform." Its main feature was to collect a variety of science fiction, preferably hard-core science fiction! Long, medium, or short-form works, all would be accepted. As long as one's sci-fi novel was exciting, one would be able to submit his stories to "Xing Hai Sci-fi Novel Platform."
Xing Hai Entertainment's film, animation, and music departments would be mainly serving the Xing Hai sci-fi novels. All the sci-fi works that became popular on the platform and had great potential would have the chance to be made into a film or animation! It could be adapted into a movie, web drama, animation, etc. The creator of the story would gain huge amounts of attention and a lot of money. This was undoubtedly a great temptation for the majority of authors; it would attract them to join "Xing Hai Sci-fi Novel Platform" and publish their own works. They would also work hard to create excellent science fiction works and strive for their works to be made into movies and animations. They would then achieve both fame and fortune. After all, with the technological prowess of Xing Hai Technologies, it was impossible for their stories to be made into bad films and thus destroying it in the process. Only classic after classic would be created.
Out of the trust for Xing Hai Technologies, he believed that many talented sci-fi authors would be willing to join this platform under "Xing Hai Entertainment." The sci-fi literary culture of Z country would be cultivated thusly. The number of sci-fi enthusiasts would increase; the number of people who were inclined towards the sciences and delve into science would increase. These factors would eventually turn Z country into a sci-fi power. Chen Jin could also benefit from it. One aspect of it was economic; on the other hand, the process could also collect a lot of talents, and open up new ways of thinking for Nuwa and Alice... Sometimes the advancement of technology required a major shift in thinking, and some really good talents could even represent a glimmer of hope in their darkest hour.
As for the advertising department of Xing Hai Entertainment, this department had already been created long ago. They made hundreds of advertisements promoting Xing Hai Technologies' products. Some of the advertisements had content that was funny, some were extremely interesting. Some had magnificent scenes and beautifully detailed graphics. Nearly all were classics.
"The second outstanding film and television company after Hua Yao Film and Television." This was the evaluation given by the majority of netizens for Xing Hai Technologies' advertisements. Now Chen Jin transferred the company's advertising department into "Xing Hai Entertainment," which was to allow the advertising department to continue to represent Xing Hai Technologies' unacknowledged side business and produce more good advertisements.
After Chen Jin got his staff to release the news that "Xing Hai Entertainment Company" was about to be established, suddenly a huge commotion was created in the entertainment circle. Netizens exclaimed in surprise and clapped their hands.
"The entertainment circle is done for. Now that the strongest whale in history has entered the scene, the little goldfish are trembling!"
"Xing Hai Technologies should have entered the field long ago! I am fed up with the domestically produced shitty movies that are flooding the market!"
"The above comment is too harsh. There are many bad films, but there have also been a lot of good domestic movies made in the past few years. I can only say that it's a mixed bag. It's the same in foreign countries."
"It is a good thing that Xing Hai Technologies is entering the field. The quantity of excellent film and television works will definitely increase. Personally, I look forward to it."
"Welcome to Xing Hai Technologies for entering the entertainment field. I only have one requirement: I don't want young hunks! I don't watch any movies with young hunks! No exception!"
"To the above comment, +1"
In addition, shortly after the news was published, Chen Jin received several calls on his mobile phone.


Through a mysterious portal, Chen Jin arrived at this strange place - a post-apocalyptic world where civilization had been destroyed. 

Consequently, he found -

A piece of metal scrap
A robot trash collector
A battleground
A city
A ton and more of gold
A copy of high-tech documents
A...
In short, Chen Jin found a planet.

Pei Qian pondered for a moment and still decided that he could not take the risk. 
It would be best if he could bluff Fei Huang Workspace into spending large sums of money and come up with their own ideas and script. That would increase their chances of incurring losses! 
Thus, Pei Qian chose to avoid talking about his hopes for Huang Sibo. Instead, he changed the topic entirely. 
"There's no need to rush things like creativity. Many famous directors improvise their script as they film, don't they? I believe that Director Zhu Xiaoce can do the same! 
"The most important thing is that it seems too unambitious for a filming workspace, that was established nine months ago and that has Tengda Corporation as its backing, to continue working on short videos and generating revenue from sponsored partnerships and an online shop!" 
Huang Sibo opened his mouth, instinctively wanting to rebut Pei Qian. 
So what if they had been established nine months ago? Was that a long time? 
Many filming workspaces closed down after six months, much less nine. The fact that Fei Huang Workspace could survive for nine months was good enough! Even though some of their productions incurred losses, most of them were well-received! 
However, as he looked at Boss Pei, Huang Sibo became too ashamed to speak up. 
Indeed, Tengda Games had come up with so many good games in just nine months! 
Compared to Tengda's success, Fei Huang Workspace's achievements were not even worth mentioning.
It was no wonder that Boss Pei felt disappointed in Fei Huang Workspace. 
Slightly embarrassed, Huang Sibo said, "Well… Boss Pei, do you think Fei Huang Workspace should venture into filming proper movies now?" 
Pei Qian nodded. "That's right. You've already worked on short videos and documentaries. The director and staff are all considered skilled now. What are you waiting for?" 
Huang Sibo frowned. "Er… we don't have enough money?" 
Pei Qian smiled subtly. "If you don't have enough money, you can film a movie that has a lower production value. If you're still short on cash, you can ask me for more. How big of a problem is that?" 
Huang Sibo looked like he was being put in a spot. "Well… the budget is only one problem… 
"Boss Pei, it's not that I'm being conservative. The problem is that filming movies and filming short videos are two entirely different things!" 
Huang Sibo began to explain why he thought so. 
Each episode of Boss Pei's Daily Life only lasted a couple of minutes. Each episode of A Day in a Great Inventor's Life did not last that much longer; on average, they lasted ten minutes. The longest episode only lasted half an hour. 
However, a proper movie to be screened in cinemas had to last at least ninety minutes. 
On the surface, it merely looked several times longer. However, underneath laid a massive difference. 
A short video that only lasted several minutes could be made up of different comedic clips. The story could be messy and all over the place, but as long as it could make viewers laugh, the short video would be considered a success. 
On the other hand, it would not be enough for a ninety-minute-long movie to merely make the audience laugh. 
In order to produce an outstanding movie, the story had to be complete and pull at the audience's heartstrings. That was far more difficult than creating a short video. 
Coming up with comedic material alone would not be sufficient to create a good movie. 
Many movies that had been produced to ride on web series' popularity failed terribly, precisely because the producers were not powerful or skilled enough to produce a proper movie. They saw movies as merely extended versions of their short videos. That was where they failed. 
"Boss Pei, that is why it'll be very risky for us to try and produce a proper movie. It's best if we don't take that risk unless we're a hundred percent confident. 
"At the very least, we need to come up with a good script, right?" 
Huang Sibo looked very earnest. 
Pei Qian remained silent for a long time. It looked like Huang Sibo knew a lot about this! 
However, now that he had put it that way, Pei Qian was all the more interested in producing a movie!
The high chances of failure were exactly what attracted Boss Pei! 
Of course, at the end of the day, Boss Pei was still extremely benevolent. Since there were high risks involved and they were likely to fail, Pei Qian could not allow Huang Sibo and Zhu Xiaoce to take the blame. 
As the saying went—if I didn't go to hell, who would? 
Boss Pei had to get ready to shoulder all responsibility for this! 
After considering for a moment, Pei Qian said, "Since that's the case, Tengda will fund the movie. I will think of a script. You and Director Zhu Xiaoce will just be in charge of filming." 
This way, Boss Pei would be solely responsible for the movie failing. Tengda would be the one incurring losses, and the morale of Fei Huang Workspace's employees would not be affected. 
Huang Sibo was evidently stunned. He quickly said, "Boss Pei, you're mistaken. I'm not afraid of shouldering responsibility, I'm just—" 
Pei Qian smiled and waved his hand. "I understand. 
"You are the CEO of Fei Huang Workspace now. You have to be responsible for the projects you take up. It's right that you are critically analyzing risks and ensuring that the workspace can generate profits. 
"Just take this opportunity as part of your training. You can also take it as Fei Huang Workspace's advancement in the filming industry."
Huang Sibo's eyes welled up. 
He was touched!
He could tell what Boss Pei was thinking. Boss Pei was worried that if Fei Huang Workspace failed, Huang Sibo and Zhu Xiaoce's confidence would be greatly affected. That was why he was offering to invest in this project and take sole responsibility if the movie failed! 
However, no matter the final outcome of the movie, Fei Huang Workspace would surely gain a lot of experience during the filming process. That would speed up their growth. 
Huang Sibo wanted to say many things, but he also felt that he would be acting too formally if he thanked Boss Pei profusely. 
Finally, he summarized everything that he wanted to say in a word of thanks. 
"We'll follow Boss Pei's instructions, then. Fei Huang Workspace will do its best to cooperate and do a good job of filming!
"There's another thing, Boss Pei. Fei Huang Workspace cannot make you do all the work for nothing. We will pay you a hundred thousand yuan for your script. It's not a lot of money, but it's a token of our appreciation. Please don't turn it down." 
Huh? A hundred thousand yuan for my script? 
Pei Qian had just casually made the suggestion, but when he heard the figure, he perked up immediately. 
"Alright! I'll send you the first draft of the script in a few days!" 
This was an unexpected surprise!
He had pulled a similar stunt when they filmed Boss Pei's Daily Life back then. Pei Qian made a guest appearance in the short videos and earned a sum of money for playing himself. 
Now, he had found yet another avenue to earn money. 
He was going to be a scriptwriter! 
The upper and lower limits of scriptwriters' market pay were quite far apart. Top scriptwriters could earn a six-figure-sum for writing just one episode's script. On the other hand, newer scriptwriters only earned a few thousand yuan—or over ten thousand yuan at most—per episode. Even then, they were expected to continuously alter the script at any hour of the day or night. 
The System would probably find paying Pei Qian a hundred thousand yuan for writing a movie script acceptable. It would probably not be considered fraudulently acquiring System Funds. 
At the same time, there was no need for Pei Qian to write the script in great detail. All he needed to do was offer an idea. 
It was a perfect arrangement! 
The two men chatted for a while longer until Huang Sibo stood up and bid farewell. 
Now that they had officially decided to film a movie, Huang Sibo's passion for work was reignited. 
There was still a lot of work to be done when he returned to Fei Huang Workspace. The most urgent of which was to hire more employees. 
… 
After Huang Sibo left, Pei Qian opened a new document and began writing the script. 
Pei Qian knew nothing about movie scripts. 
However, since he was going to be paid a hundred thousand yuan for this draft, he had to make sure that he did a sufficiently good job. There was no need to come up with a mental outline: he intended to get straight to work on the new document! 
"First, the genre!" 
Without any hesitation, Pei Qian typed the words 'science fiction' in the document. 
Sci-fi movies were the most expensive to produce. They were also the easiest to screw up since so many sci-fi films were horrible. It was perfect for Pei Qian, whose aim was for the movie to fail in the box office. 
Having decided the movie's genre, Pei Qian was already halfway to success! 
Now, it was time to come up with an outline of the movie's story. 
Thirty minutes later…
The document still only contained the words 'science fiction'. 
Pei Qian heaved a long sigh. D*mn, I'm not cut out for this at all. 
At first, he thought that he could just come up with a rubbish story that would insult his audience's intelligence. However, when he wanted to start writing, he discovered that even coming up with a rubbish story was extremely difficult.
At that moment, Pei Qian wished that he could recall the storylines of all the horrible movies he had watched.
Unfortunately, Pei Qian was no movie enthusiast. He had only watched very few movies. 
What's more, he absolutely despised lousy movies. He would never catch the premiere of movies and would resolve not to buy tickets to watch them if they had a bad reputation. 
Thus, Pei Qian could not recall the plots of lousy movies no matter how hard he tried. He was completely uninspired. 
Every time he wrote a line in the document, he erased it and was left with the words 'science fiction' again. 
Pei Qian scratched his head.
"I can't go on like this. I need to alter my thought process. Hmm… I can write in opposites!" 
Pei Qian suddenly thought of a brilliant idea. 
Be it films, novels, or games; they were all the same at their core. 
If one wanted to produce a good film, they had to be sure of what their audience wanted to see. Conversely, if one wanted to produce a horrible film, they just had to be sure of what the audience did not want to see, right? 
Many lousy movies had empty plots that caused their audience to feel bored and drowsy. This was a good line of thought, but it did not give Pei Qian much to work with. 
What was really bothering Pei Qian now was the movie's concrete plot. 
He had to settle on a concrete plot first and then dilute it as much as possible. Only then could he make the plot empty and bland, so that the audience would become bored and drowsy. 
What kind of plots was the most annoying? 
Pei Qian could not help but think about one of the concepts in the web novel industry.
Toxic points! 
So-called toxic points referred to things in a plot that would make the reader feel unwell. A brown-noser[1] was an example of a toxic point. 
At that thought, Pei Qian happily wrote another line under the words 'science fiction': 'The male protagonist is a brown-noser. 
As the saying went, brown-nosers deserved horrible deaths. 
If the male protagonist managed to win the female protagonist over in the end, the toxicity of the plot would be greatly reduced. 
Thus, Pei Qian wrote another line: 'The brown-noser ends up with nothing'. 
After some thought, he decided that the plot was not harsh enough. 
'The male protagonist was made a cuckold.'
'The child was not his.' 
'The male protagonist wanted to raise the child, but the child absolutely hated him.' 
'After suffering blow after blow, the male protagonist lost his mind and decided to take revenge on society.' 
Pei Qian pondered for a moment and realized something was amiss. "…No, the male protagonist cannot take revenge on society. After all, he's a weakling."
Pei Qian did not want this movie to become a superhero film about 'Green Hat Man[2]' or something. If the movie accidentally spread overseas and he won another award, he would be in deep trouble. 
'After suffering blow after blow, the male protagonist breaks down and chooses to kill himself.'
Again, Pei Qian felt uncomfortable. "Er… if he kills himself, it would serve as a mini climax for the movie. It'll take the path of traditional sad films. That doesn't sound good. 
"The male protagonist should live the rest of his life in misery." 
Yet, Pei Qian struggled with this as well. "That doesn't seem right either. It feels a bit too plain. I should give the male protagonist some hope for better times nearing the end and then ruthlessly destroy it."
Then again, what kind of hope should he give the protagonist, and how should he destroy it? 
Pei Qian could not think of good ideas at the moment. 
However, he was not in a rush either. After all, he only needed to come up with a rough script in two or three days. 
Just as he wanted to close the document, Pei Qian thought about something else and intentionally bolded the words 'science fiction'. 
He could not forget that this was supposed to be a sci-fi movie. 
He had to make sure that sci-fi elements appeared in the plot, so that he could spend more money on props and special effects. 
Of course, as to what kind of sci-fi elements he should add…
He had to think about it tomorrow. 
Satisfied, Pei Qian read the general framework for the plot once through, from beginning to end. He nearly passed out from the toxicity. 
The plot was toxic—it was incredibly toxic! 
One could say that this plot was going to house all the toxic points throughout history. Pei Qian could not leave even one toxic point out.
Then, he would just have to enrich the plot, add a sci-fi packaging, and dilute the story.
After all that, his work would be done! 
"Ai, I am such a 'huge villain'."
Pei Qian felt like he was naturally gifted in creating lousy movies! He should have entered the movie industry a long time ago!

I really just want to lose money! T_T
Best boss ever, prodigy of the business world, genius creator, visionary of the century.
These are the descriptions used for Pei Qian, President of Tengda Corporation.
Ever since his rebirth, Pei Qian finds himself in possession of a system that rewards him if he manages to lose money.
Instantly, a brilliant idea comes to mind — making crappy games!
"If the game flops, all my investment cost will be lost!"
"How difficult can it be to lose money?"
Indeed... how difficult can it be?
------------------------------------------------------------
This book is highly popular in China and has set off a new trend. Webnovel has very high expectations for this book and has gotten the author to refine the first chapter as an exclusive for global readers. We hope everyone will enjoy reading it.

Future Technology's allure was indeed unprecedented. The company received 170281 scripts which were equivalent to the listings on some web novel sites.
Of course, it wasn't just Future Technology's name - the one million in prizes also played a role.
The massive number of documents meant it was impossible to manually complete the review process. It was time for Jiang Chen's "assistant".
For Jean, there was no inherent difference between 170281 and 1782. The computation speed of the quantum computer could read through billions of words in an instant.
The only problematic thing was that because she was just intermediate artificial intelligence, while she had the ability to think, she didn't possess any human emotions.
Without emotions, she obviously wouldn't understand the beauty hidden inside the words and it would be impossible for her to rate the submissions. She could only filter the text based on the settings Jiang Chen set.
Anything less than 100 thousand words were eliminated. It was too difficult to rewrite that into a script with a plot that could fill a three-hour film.
Works over one million words were also removed. He was planning to make a movie, not a drama series.
Works with more than 50 grammatical errors, awkward logic, and obvious plot holes were among the factors considered; only a few thousand works remained after that. Of course, there might've been gold dusted out along with the sand, but the quality of the remaining works would definitely be of higher quality.
The first round of selections took five seconds, but the second round took two weeks!
With Nolan's lead, Warner Brothers employees began to manually review the English. Chinese works were the responsibility of Future Group.
In order to be fair and open, Warner Brothers invited the World Science Fiction Association, which was the sponsor of the Hugo Awards, to participate in the selection process. Of course, the opinions of the judges were only for reference and did not have a direct impact on the results of the selection process.
After two weeks of selection.
Finally, after much anticipation, Future Technology and Warner Brothers jointly announced their winners on the official website. All winners would be reimbursed for their airfare expenses to attend a grand award ceremony on Coro Island and sign with Future Technology.
At the end of the ceremony, Jiang Chen went to see Nolan.
A total of ten works were selected, but they still needed to discuss to select the top work.
The entire event costed a total of 15 million US dollar to select the right screenplay. Future Technology's willingness to invest certainly made Mr. Nolan feel immense pressure. When they met, he said:
"If we were just trying to create hype, didn't we invest too much?"
"But from the results, our reward is satisfying, isn't it?" Jiang Chen smiled.
Nolan revealed a helpless expression. "I can't disagree on that point, and on that point alone."
In all the works submitted to Future Technology, there were pieces of some emerging writers as well as some novels that had been popular for a long time and had a high demand for an adaptation. Obviously, it wasn't only fans of science fiction films but science fiction writers' enthusiasm for this open contest was also frivolous.
As they went through the list from the top, Jiang Chen exchanged opinions with Nolan, one by one.
"What about 'Civilization' by Ian M. Banks? The most famous space opera science fiction in the 1980s."
"It's too difficult to adapt a series of novels." Nolan shrugged bluntly.
"Then what about the 'Dust in God's Eyes'? Larry Neven's story of the first contact between humans and extraterrestrial intelligent creatures is very interesting. The expedition team, composed of naval officers and soldiers, and businessmen and scientists, was also exciting. Their approach of: 'In the case of contact with nonhuman intelligent creatures, we must assume the other side is hostile' is also quite interesting."
"That book is on my shortlist." Nolan laughed.
"Haha, can you tell me about the lucky ones on your list?"
"In addition to this, there's 'the Fire on the Abyss.' I used to discuss the possibility of adapting this science fiction masterpiece with my younger brother Jonathan, but we finally decided we couldn't film this.
"Not possible to do it?"
"That's right. The scale of the universe described in this book is too great. Three worlds and countless races - even Industrial Light and Magic can't recreate the essence of this work." Nolan looked at Jiang with eyes full of hope. "Could Virtual Image's VR imaging technology do it?"
When Jiang Chen heard Nolan's question, his mouth twitched.
"There's no problem in theory, but three worlds ... the production cycle is probably going to be quite long."
Nolan also knew his proposal was impossible, so he sighed.
"That's really a pity ..."
But when he went down the list, he stumbled on an unfamiliar name.
"'Time Curtain' - what's this?"
"Oh, this, ah, I was planning to recommend this to you," Jiang Chen said with a smile.
"Author ... Li Ming?" Christopher furrowed his brows as he had never heard of the name.
Although the works weren't rigidly attached to the authors'names, since he never heard this name before, he instinctively donned his tinted glasses.
However, Jiang Chen didn't mind and began to introduce the plot. 
"This book is on my list of candidates. Although the writing and character shaping aren't as carefully crafted, the depth of thought is unexpectedly at a masters level, and the point of view is also very fascinating. In 2070, the world's climate is no longer suitable for human survival, nor is the world's space weather. The International Astronautics Federation launched a colonization ship called 'Borderlands,' heading for Kepler 22b 600 lightyears away."
"Because of the slow effects of the speed of light, when the Borderlands arrived on Kepler 22b, tens of thousands of years had passed since they left. When they entered this alien land, they discovered the ruins of human civilization and alien species. Evidence suggested that a second colonization ship was launched by the International Astronautic Federation a year after 2070. They just didn't know why they were ahead on the time scale and had long disappeared."
"The extraterrestrial civilization on the planet was still in its infancy, but whether it was indigenous peoples who were enlightened by the remnants of human civilization or those who came from earth themselves wasn't known. What was even more interesting are the later stories. The conflicts and suspense are carefully orchestrated. I won't spoil things for you; you should read it yourself."
"Just from your description, this story is certainly interesting. But how did you pick this book out of so many works?" Nolan asked.
"I didn't choose this, but my assistant recommended it to me," Jiang replied.
This confused Jiang Chen the most.
What logic did Jean, without a concept of emotion or aesthetics, use to recommend him this piece? Jiang Chen asked Jean before, but Jean couldn't answer the question. She only used a vague and humane way to respond to the question: "Because it's interesting?"
Although the theme was impressive, it wasn't stellar by definition. The concept of time wasn't a novel concept in the sci-fi world. While the topic escalated to a discussion of civilization, this point didn't add too much complexity.
But after reading the work, Jiang Chen had to admit that Jean didn't lie to him; the work was indeed fascinating.
"It's too early to make a decision. I'll go back, read this book and I'll give you a reply tomorrow." Then Nolan stood up and looked at Jiang Chen.
"I'm looking forward to your good news." Jiang Chen smiled.
Nolan raised his eyebrows and jokingly whispered.
"I've always been picky with the script."
"Believe me, you'll love it."


After the nuclear war, ruins stretch across the landscape in the apocalypse.
If you accidentally survived on the wasteland, then you must be ready to face the endless hunger, ceaseless dangers, the mad zombies at night, and the peculiar mutant creatures that are the aftermath of constant radiation.
But for Jiang Chen, this place is heaven.
Mansions standing tall, luxurious cars parked on the street, high tech products and gold abandoned everywhere.
What? You were the president of a game development company before the war? You were responsible for the development of the 3D virtual reality online multiplayer game? Well, that’s great, why don’t you come work for me. Your salary is two pieces of bread a day.
iPhone? Ultra thin design? Don’t you see that the phone I invented is thinner than a condom?
Aircraft carrier? Fighter jets? Oh, I have those things as well, but they are designed for space combat.
Watch the story of Jiang Chen, who possesses the ability to travel through space and time, as he witnesses the creation of an empire stretched across space and time... 


Henry waited for several days but did not see Ford Brook giving him a letter, maybe Sequoia Capital did not agree to a stock exchange. They believe that holding shares in Apple is more valuable than holding shares in the Netscape browser. Henry saw that Ford Brook hadn't contacted him, and besides he didn't care, when he got back, it was up to anyone who asked! Do not come in the future to cry and be pitied because you want to exchange shares, Henry must squeeze Sequoia Capital once in a while.

Noah's Ark company settled in Silicon Valley, without noise, and did not make the media aware of it.

Henry believes that talking to products, saying less and doing more, and pragmatic innovation are the foundation of company development. That's it, Noah's Ark Company only holds a small cocktail party internally, which is considered a celebration of the company's founding! In addition to company employees, present also included Bookstore CEO Nicholas Geely Hurt, Cisco Bosack CEO, Sequoia Capital Ford Brook, and three company chairs Henry Williams! ! !

The new CEO of Noah's Ark was named Bob Gallagher. This man is also an extraordinary figure. He is a postdoctoral in computer science at Harvard University in the United States, and has an MBA simultaneously. He has served as deputy manager for the General Electric branch in Asia. He resigned in February 1986 and soon joined Cisco. Considering this man's extraordinary ability and professionalism, Henry decided to entrust him with an important task and let him serve him as CEO of Noah's Ark.

Bob Gallagher in his forties. He is a little fatter and taller. He doesn't like to wear a suit. He always wears gray casual clothes. Fortunately, Henry was wise and did not insist on what clothes the company employees should wear.

Henry met Ford Brook at the reception, and he didn't ask about stock exchanges. Everyone's having fun and eating, chatting, and embracing each other.

After the reception, Henry called Bob Gallagher to talk to him and discuss how Noah Ark would develop in the future. Henry gave it all, even though he didn't know much about servers, he still knew very little about tower servers and blade servers. For servers, the processor is the top priority.

As for the processor, which one is better?

Intel must do its part, but most Intel processors are developed based on the Windows operating system. Both are "messy" and form the Wintel Alliance to manipulate the market, so this processor is also sold at a high price! ! !

If Noah's Ark is a server, it is best to have your own processor!

However, the difficulty was too high, the research and development costs were in the hundreds of millions, and Henry had no money to spend! Naturally, buying an Intel or other IBM processor has become a temporary plan. The most urgent thing is Noah's Ark to design a web server that can meet the needs of today's users! ! !

A total of 25 technicians from the Nicholas and Cisco Bookstores were assigned to Noah's Ark. Bob then went to Stanford University and recruited 20 people locally in Silicon Valley, and almost moved an R&D team of 45 people. Everyone discussed what to do with this web server, what processor to choose, and the work went well!

Henry returns home. These days, he is also very busy. After a two-day break, he began resuming his novel. Nine novels in the "Harry Potter" series have been written, and now all of them are published in seven "Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows". Henry plans to write a science fiction novel, his name is "Jurassic Park". This novel is a science fiction novel published by Michael Clayton in 1990. After being published, this novel immediately caused a national sensation, and also ranked first in the list of America's best-selling novels.

Henry bought Pixar and was already a member of Hollywood, so naturally he had to make more preparations.

In addition, film entertainment is indispensable in the Internet industry. As an ambitious and high-spirited young traveler, it's impossible not to set up the film industry!

Pixar is one of them, and copyrights from various good film novels are also one of them.

Besides Henry's own writings, he can also get many famous novel scripts.

Henry works as a "book copyer" at home, and from time to time he also pays attention to national events and company development. CEO Nicholas Bookstore, Cisco, Noah's Ark, and Pixar report to Henry every week, so Henry can understand the company's operations even if he doesn't come to the company.

Because of Cisco's continued development, the speed of development of the Internet is at least two years longer than in previous lives, specifically the development of the National Science Foundation. This was the initial goal of establishing the US Science and Technology Fund Network. The original goal of the US Science Foundation Network was to exchange scientific research information, but in the hands of the capitalists, it would definitely get worse! US authorities immediately took back management rights of companies such as IBM and switched to operating on their own. But even so, many large companies in the United States have seen the benefits of it, so many companies have joined together to develop some professional commercial backbone networks.

The advent of commercial backbone networks means that the Internet will enter a period of prosperity, not just the Internet of schools, governments, scientific research institutes, and companies, but the Internet of all Americans! Ordinary people can also be connected to the Internet! ! ! Of course, investment in commercial backbone networks is very large, and it will not develop in a short time. However, in some developed regions, backbone networks have been established, and many Americans have joined the network.

As of January 1987, 13 major cities including New York, Washington, Los Angeles, San Francisco, Chicago, etc. Has joined the backbone network!

The development of networks has become a trend. Cisco has made significant achievements last year. After the annual report was released, it can be seen that Cisco's sales in 1986 had reached 50 million US dollars, and the router for 1,000 US dollars was equivalent to the sales of ee thousand thousand routers. Compared to the performance in 1985, it has increased 5 times! ! ! Charles, President of Sequoia Capital, said: "In the beginning, Sequoia Capital should have invested more money !!!"

Ford Brook, executive director of Sequoia Capital, sighed: "Henry is tougher than Bill Gates !!!"

Henry could not see the eyes and annoyed tone of Sequoia Capital. He believed that humbling people were the king's way, and the most important thing was to make wealth in silence. Although Cisco has become famous, not many people know Mr. Henry Williams as chairman of Cisco!

Unless Henry attends book signing events in England, he rarely appears in front of the media. He is mysterious, and outsiders know nothing about him.

On January 5, 1987, Bookstore CEO Nicholas Geely Hutt suddenly called Henry and told him that the "Internet Movie Database" website had been built, and let him go to see it.

Henry hurries the next day.

Come to the company, led by Geely Hutt and company technology chief Tom Wilson, enter the office, and then turn on the computer. Under Henry's gaze, Tom Wilson entered the www website, and soon a familiar website appeared in front of Henry. Henry looked at the interface, and then tested the function for himself.

Various functions are similar to the previous IMDB.

After the test, Henry nodded in satisfaction, "Yes, this website is fine. By the way, has it been officially released?"

"Not yet," said Geely Hutt.

"Then take it off now. Um ... Does the Netscape browser have a pop-up feature?" Henry asked.

"Pop-up function?" Geely Hutt and Tom Wilson were stunned.

Henry is silent.

So, I explained to them: "Pop ups are small windows that appear through browsers or websites for advertising. Like our Netscape browser and the Nicholas Bookstore website, you can open that window. Help us to promote it. Database of internet movie websites our new !!! "

Now, both of them understood in seconds. Geely Hurt and Tom Wilson admire the looks on their faces with expressions of wonder and admiration! It is predictable that once the function of the pop-up window appears, it will have an unparalleled effect on the publicity work!

"Chairman, this function is easy to implement, I will develop it !!!" said Tom Wilson excitedly.

"Yes." Henry nods, but I still want to remind them not to keep popping up like the Chinese web ads that appear so often and end up making users upset. The first time the user opens the Netscape browser, a window appears once. The same applies to the Nicholas Bookstore website. Appearing too often will make the user easily angry and upset and then affect the user experience, and have a very bad impact on our future development. So, this must be remembered! "

"got it !!!"

Henry smiles, even the company is developing apart from neglect, he also has his own existence, which can change things and improve things!

From the official establishment of the IMDB website in September last year to January this year, it took more than four months. The preparatory work is very detailed, collecting data, entering data, developing websites, etc. If you don't hear it, it's a blockbuster. The IMDB website will create a sensation in Hollywood, and that is to awaken the love of American screen names.

Ten days later, the Netscape browser starts.

This is amazing. As the only graphical browser in the United States, as a national Internet monopoly window, basically Internet users who use the Internet have seen a "strong" pop-up window! This was the first time they met in this window, it was good and interesting, and they could not help but click on it. After I entered, I saw a new website. This website has images and information. This is actually a film website.

After using it, I found that this website is too powerful. Films from the beginning of American films to the present are aired, and are worthy of being a film database. What is even rarer is that the film's database actually has a rating system, not only for viewing films, but also for comments and exchanging suggestions below. This is really too humane and very loved by people. Some film lovers have registered an account to rate their favorite films, and then leave comments!

Although Nicholas Bookstore is more influential than a browser without Internet access, he also has many users and can be more or less effective.

Not long after, the IMDB website became popular. However, because there are some netizens, the level of popularity is also very average. However, all universities in the United States are Cisco's main target, and students are the main consumers of film and even potential consumers in the future, so the effect is still quite large! Big Hollywood studios react differently to this website. Some don't take it seriously, while others take it seriously.

IMDB growth will take time!

But history will prove that this will be a media website with a big influence on Hollywood. With this website, Henry has certain rights to speak in Hollywood!

Among Henry's four companies, his favorite is Pixar because it's the most fun and out of control. Pixar's free creation, a different atmosphere of thought and their innocence made Henry feel much younger. Of course, Henry was now a twelve or thirteen-year-old boy, but his heart was an uncle. When I came to Pixar, I saw funny cartoon characters on the computer, watched all the noisy people like children, and even imitated the shape and expression of the cartoon character. Very interesting!

The short film Pixar currently made is called LuxoJr., The protagonist in this film is the jumping light which later became the symbol of Pixar. Henry volunteered and said that he would dub the dancing lights. Everyone laughed at Henry's request and said that he would "interview" first, or "come down" if that didn't work, and didn't treat Henry at all!

Everyone is familiar with it, jokes are often made, Henry doesn't mind, an interview is just an interview. Of course, the process is much livelier. A large group of people in the studio came to witness the excitement. Henry is not shy at all, and calls it seriously. Not to mention, the final voiceover effect is pretty good. Pixar CEO Edwin immediately decided and asked Henry to label him the protagonist with dancing light!

Henry becomes an honorable voice actor!

But how long does an animated short film take? Henry's voiceover work is done in one day!

This short film "LuxoJr." Is Pixar's first work. Everyone united and meticulously made this film, tried hard to make a classic film, and even rushed to win awards. In fact, the short Pixar film "LuxoJr." In his previous life he was nominated for an Oscar for Best Animated Short Film and won the Golden Gate Award, the first jury award in the computer imaging category at the San Francisco International Film Festival!

After the production of "LuxoJr." Finished, Henry discussed with them to make the leap of light a symbol of the company. So, a day later, the classic Pixar factory logo then appeared, and this logo was painted by Henry himself, and everyone agreed!

Then there was the LuxoJr problem.

This problem is really a big deal, a ten-minute animated short film will not be shown in theaters. What to do? Movie theater is only profitable. Films that are not valuable and cannot make money will not be shown. For an animated short film of only ten minutes, they are afraid that no one will even watch it.

Henry thought for a while, the key was still not well known, "LuxoJr." Popular, maybe the cinema is willing to show it.

In the first step, Henry made a large publication on the IMDB website.

The second step is to send short films to the competition.

Henry does what he thinks, and when instructing the IMDB website to start publicity work, he sends "LuxoJr." To participate in the Oscars

Earth in the year 980, there is no advanced technology, no entertainment to feed the boredom, there is only power struggles, constant warfare and very dirty politics.

Kingdoms began to stand one by one to prove and declare their kingdom was the ruler of the world.

Michael Jackson, a young man in the 20th century with a blessing from God to redeem his life who has saved many people at the cost of his life.

There is no system and also not a matchless genius, but Michael was given a mysterious blessing by God.

"If you were in my position, what would you do?"

I will try to start a novel about world growth from a long time ago, and remember this world is just an imagination so it has nothing to do with the real world.

Do not protest, because I use the help of goggle translate if any suggestions I really appreciate it.

The next days and weeks Frosty and Dark Dark started to hang out more, watched movies together, were on walks outside, ate together, talked a lot, kissed and cuddeled in their rooms, created ice cream together, laughted a lot, trained fighting like before, played and wrote music together and drank cocktails at the bar. 

Frosty liked crime and mystery movies, thrillers and horror films. Dark Dark was more into fantasy and science fiction but they both liked action and superhero movies. Sometimes they also watched romantic or comedy films. One time Frosty and Dark Dark nearly cried because of an emotional scene in an romantic love movie. 

Every once or twice a week they met in Dark Dark's or Frosty's room to play drums together, practise songs of their bands or just play around and have some fun. They tried to write some songs and lyrics together but Frosty was pretty bad at writing and being creative with words. Also Dark Dark wasn't that good at it. In his band, it was mostly Numb and Fade who wrote the songs. Sometimes he just came up with new, different ideas and edited some of the songs. 

The other people in the building pretty normal around Frosty and Dark Dark. Phoenix and Menace were very happy for them, July, Cherry Blossom, Plane Crash, Bad Idea and Thrill ignored them. Young Blood and Sugar seamed kinda surprised, in their eyes Frosty and Dark Dark didn't fit together. Fade, Mmrs, Saturday, Care and Numb smiled at them when they saw them together, Trick sighed because he wanted to have a girlfriend too but was happy for Dark Dark and his older sister. XO was very jelous but didn't say anything. She just stared at them with an angry look. 

Dark Dark and Frosty also were often in the woods, visited beautiful places like the waterfalls or the river and met shadows sometimes. Frosty was pretty strong and Dark too, so they weren't a problem. They could scare them away quite fast and easy. 

One time Phoenix came with them to pick some fruits and the three of them got into a trap by dark shades. There were like 15 of them at one place. "I never saw this before. There are so many of them!", Dark Dark wondered. "They are scary", Phoenix seamed anxious. Frosty just stood there, waiting, silent, watching the shadows.

Menace, Phoenix, Dark Dark, Frosty and some other people live in a big building on a glade in the woods and are training fighting together to defend themselves against the shadows in the woods. They all have different magical powers and personalities, hobbies, jobs and relationships. Getting along with each other isn't always easy but they are holding together. Will that be enough to get through all the trouble in their lifes, surviving and fighting shadows?

While Han Dong was a nerd who kept himself to the books, focusing only on research during his previous life, he still had his own hobbies. It was just that there was not much time to spare for them.
If he happened to run into experiments with longer waiting times, Han Dong would watch films in the laboratory to kill time.
Films were a form of art by themselves, and in Han Dong's opinion, some films had plenty of depth, and seriously viewing and appreciating them was very helpful in helping him improve his divergent thinking…
Science Fiction films were Hong Dong's favorite, however, he did not watch many horror films.
It was not because he was afraid to do so, but that he was uninterested with ghosts and spirits that science could not explain intuitively. It was his belief that these were just a product of human fantasy that were combined with the fear that humans had toward reality… There was not much significance to viewing such films.
Meanwhile, Han Dong's impression of the domestic horror film was that of a bad movie that was meant to earn money, a trashy production.
As for the Chinese movie, The Cursed, Han Dong vaguely recalled that he had once come across a movie review of it published on the internet, giving a brief overview and critique of the work.
[The amateur director spent a low budget of 700,000 yuan to create this horror film, even covering the 200,000 yuan medical expenses incurred by the male lead as a result of an injury during the course of filming… In reality, the actual film crushed millions of thrillers in the domestic box office, even going up against horror films from around the world. It even won quite a few awards, yet something went wrong on the eve of its release.
It's unknown if this film could really have been 'Cursed'."]
Han Dong was really curious back then too, and he tried to gather information about it, but he barely uncovered much online about the film, proving to be even more difficult to find than small independent films.
In the process of his search, Han Dong discovered that the original release of the film, The Cursed had suddenly been withdrawn… As if there was something strange that went down with it.
One of the factors that had played a more influential impact on this matter happened during a certain Hong Kong International Film Festival.
When they were screening the movie, some woman in the audience began to run back and forth in the cinema as a result of being triggered, as if she suddenly had problems with her mental state.
Han Dong believed that this sort of film that followed a pseudo documentary style of filming had resonated with the audience to some extent, and the woman must have seen a scene similar to one when she was younger and had been too engrossed in the movie that it induced panic in her.
Because he could not find any information regarding that film, coupled with how the time for the experiment to resume was upon him and Han Dong had to isolate the bacteria immediately, he ended up completely forgetting everything about that film.
"What a pity! If I had watched the film back then, our survival rate would most likely increase tremendously. All I remember is that the movie was filmed like a pseudo documentary… And that the story followed two university students who arrived at the rural village to shoot a documentary on the subject of fortune telling, recording all the strange incidents that occurred in the process of filming, knowing nothing else beyond that. An Evil Spirit event… Looks like we're really going to encounter evil spirits and ghosts that science would not be able to explain. If we can survive all three days here, we would become what the Knights' Regiment calls a 'returnee'.
From what information I've presently gathered, the casualty rate will be extremely high, and the moment we make the wrong decision, we might very well be on a path of no return, It's time to get serious and cherish this life."
It was impossible to not feel nervous about this. Any living thing when faced with an unknown object that there was no means of going against, a primal emotion like fear would of course come gushing out… It was just that different people reacted and combated to fear differently.
Having experienced death once was enough to make Han Dong suppress his inner terror.
----------------------------------------
Aside from their clothes changing, everyone in this team of six was equipped with a handheld camera each, their own student ID, as well as 500 in the local currency.
Of course, the clockwork bracelets on their wrists were also showing a new countdown timer, and it corresponded perfectly with 72 hours.
Everyone moved out together and very soon reached an open courtyard where several peasant aunts and uncles were gathered.
"Hey look, even foreigners have come here to get Granny Wong for a reading… Our village sure has earned a lot."
Han Dong spoke mandarin with a caucasian accent, and learned that they were at Granny Wong's residence, and they were all queuing to have their fortune told… However, Granny Wong was not in at the moment and had gone to the east side of the village to make a house call.
After learning this information, all of them swiftly headed over to the east of Liba Village, finding Granny Wong standing in front of the door to a family residence.
By now, the ritual she was engaged in was already at its final stages.
A red weird paper cutout of a human was tagged onto the front door, as Granny Wong stirred a bowl of water with burnt talisman paper in it using her finger, handing it over to a ghastly looking woman for her to imbibe.
Han Dong softly whispered to the team leader, "Edward, we've still got 30 minutes to build up our relationship with Granny Wong. Paying our respect to the ceremonial etiquette, let's wait for this ritual to finish before interacting with Granny Wong… I need to head to the toilet, so I'll be right back."
"Sure, go ahead." 
There were plenty of public restrooms here in the village. Of course, Han Dong had not needed to visit the restroom at this time but had actually intended to use the time before this event officially started to learn about something extremely important that involved himself.
Han Dong made his way over to a little shop and first confirmed the date today: 5th November 2015.
"Hello, what's the cost to use the public phone?"
"... Just call. It's free," this was the first time that the lady shop owner had met foreigners, so she did not seem to care about the cents incurred for making such a call.
"Thank you."
"You speak Mandarin better than I do. It's really quite something."
Han Dong flashed the lady a courteous smile and picked up the phone receiver.
But who would have thought that the moment he put it to his ears, a painful, ear-piercing screech could be heard in his mind.
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
While this incident is underway, it is forbidden to directly or indirectly use communication devices to communicate with the outside world.
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
"Tell me that sooner next time…" Han Dong felt a mild sense of helplessness wash over him.
Actually, he had wanted to use the telephone to find a loophole in the system. His intention was to call a friend from before, confirm the fact that the in-film world was the same as the world he lived in, and even if it was different… Han Dong had planned to gather information on some horror films from the outside world.
Even if it was not going to be useful for the current event, it might just come in handy in the future.
Since this route to make contact with the outside world had been sealed, Han Dong could only use the 500 yuan the system had given him to buy some potentially useful items from the grocery store, fitting everything into a hiking backpack.
Coincidentally, the ritual had ended by the time he returned, and Granny Wong was saying her goodbyes to the old couple in that family as well as the successfully exorcised woman.
"Greetings, Granny Wong. We are…"
Han Dong handed over his university identification card and began to introduce himself and the others.
It was of course not good to outright reject a group of students studying abroad that had come all the way out here to this village to film a documentary… Naturally, Granny Wong also stood to gain from this as well. If she was able to become famous through this documentary, her business might become even better in the future.
As a result, Granny Wong very readily agreed to the six students' request to interview as well as film her.
It was at this time when the system sounded once more.
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
After establishing the appropriate relationship with the key character, Granny Wong. Please follow Granny Wong's vehicle after and head to the site of the incident.
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++


Being re-birthed as a cell, Han Dong utilized the power of the Prison code and came into a parallel world where the Ancient Ones have awakened.
A steam powered civilization, horrifying subspaces, the Ancient King of the Eternal Night and strange monsters lurking outside the city.
The door of Destiny has been opened - Crusaders, Library, Control, Machinery and Mysticism would become the new growth system for human development.
The hymn of Humanity is the song of courage! The brave and dauntless Knights Regiments, riding into the world ruled by the Ancient King to seize back the freedom that belongs to mankind.
