Zhou Yang had been closely monitoring the real-time box office data online and was astonished by the incredibly rapid growth of "The Gangster, the Cop, the Devil." Just then, Peng Yuyan called, excitedly saying, "Zhou Yang! Partnering with you was truly the best decision I ever made!"

Zhou Yang smiled slightly and calmly replied, "Don't get so excited!"

"How could I not be excited? Didn't you see how fast the box office is growing? It's truly astonishing!" Peng Yuyan was extremely excited. Although he was a well-known male star in China, he wasn't very famous abroad.

This time, thanks to the soaring box office of "The Gangster, the Cop, the Devil," more and more foreign netizens are getting to know Peng Yuyan.

Zhou Yang understood his feelings and encouraged him, "Just wait and see! The numbers will surprise you when the film ends!"

Peng Yuyan had complete confidence in what Zhou Yang said and had no doubt about it.

"Okay, okay! I'm just too excited! I hope I'm not bothering you? You go ahead and do your work!"

"It's okay, just don't get so excited that you can't sleep all night!"

"How could I do this!"

"...".

After hanging up the phone, Zhou Yang held his phone, unsure of what to do.

Recalling Huang Xiaobo's words, the physical challenges had already arrived, but he had no idea what kind of movie to make.

After pondering this for several hours, Zhou Yang could only scratch his head and think to himself, "Let me relax for a bit first!"

In the days that followed, Zhou Yang frequently traveled between the company and home.

When Fat Di has free time, she also keeps Zhou Yang company so that he doesn't feel so bored.

At this moment, Fat Di excitedly exclaimed, "The total box office figures for the movie are out!"

As she spoke, she gently kicked Zhou Yang with her elegant foot.

Zhou Yang immediately grabbed her ankle and leaned over to check Fatty Di's phone.

"The total box office of 'The Gangster, the Cop, the Devil' is $21 billion! Hmm! Very good!" Zhou Yang glanced at it and felt a sense of calm.

Fatty Di rolled her eyes. How long would it take to achieve such results? How come it's so ordinary to you?

"The Gangster, the Cop, the Devil" is hailed as the most successful crime thriller film.

This film has attracted many viewers to watch it multiple times. The theater was almost full at the premiere, with an astonishing 90% occupancy rate!

With the film removed from online streaming platforms, many people are able to watch it on the Huayang video website.

In a dimly lit rented room, a man sat in front of a computer screen, having just finished watching "The Gangster, the Cop, the Devil".

He couldn't help but shed tears after watching it; Zhou Yang's performance was truly outstanding!

"It was absolutely brilliant! Every detail was handled so perfectly! If he could star in my movie, I'd finally get my chance!"

The man muttered to himself, his eyes fixed intently on Zhou Yang in the movie, his mind filled with obsession.

His emotions grew increasingly agitated, and he repeatedly looked back at those detailed scenes, clapping until his hands were red.

After watching the movie, he noticed a stack of papers next to the computer with the words "Sheep Without a Shepherd" written on them.

The walls of this rental room are peeling, and you can hear people talking next door.

He was silent for a moment, then burst into laughter, his hope rekindled.

If he fails again this time, he plans to give up!

Meanwhile, on the other side, Zhou Yang and Pang Di were sitting on the sofa when Zhou Yang's phone suddenly rang.

"Jingle Bell!"

"Hey, Yang! Ouyang needs your signature on a document! He's heading to the US for an event!"

On the other end of the phone, Chen Tianzhen's voice sounded slightly anxious.

Zhou Yang immediately stood up and replied, "Okay, give me ten minutes! I'll be right there."

He picked up his suit jacket, which he had casually tossed on the sofa, and asked Fatty Dylan as he walked out, "Are we eating here tonight? I might have to sign a contract and then attend a meeting!"
