Eunuch, do you really know these martial arts?

Previously, he had also set the gravity to three times before he experienced loss of control.

That was because his body could not withstand it, which caused the internal energy to turbulent, thus affecting the entire gravity device.

But now Jiang Nian feels that he can try to challenge himself to go higher, 2.8, or even 3.0.

His hand trembled as he placed it on the button.

Aside from him, Bai Yongxu and some of the doctors were also watching the data from the other side of the monitor.

Although Bai Yongxu did not come in person and did not turn on the live streaming equipment.

However, because this portable device is connected to the laboratory, all experimental data will be displayed in the laboratory's database in a timely manner.

When this data fluctuates, the researchers in the lab can determine the motivational training that began in Jiang's year.

At this moment, they stared in disbelief at the changes in the data here at Jiang Nian's place.

It seems Jiang Nian is really going to raise the gravity.

Many people immediately reported the information.

However, after seeing the solid data, these researchers chose to remain silent.

Because current research data tells them that Jiang Nian is able to withstand it.

Jiang Nian stood in front of the control panel, his gaze falling on the button that represented 2.8 times the gravity.

"2.8 times..."

Jiang Nian took a deep breath, a resolute glint in his eyes.

Without hesitation, he pressed down firmly with his finger.

“Buzz——!!!”

The low hum suddenly became sharper.

It was as if the training pod itself was groaning under the strain.

2.8 times gravity!
An even more terrifying pressure suddenly descended!

"Humph!"

Jiang Nian groaned, his body suddenly sank, and the muscles in his legs instantly tensed to their limit.

The alloy floor beneath my feet even made a slight creaking sound.

This time, the pressure is no longer just a simple feeling of physical burden.

It's more like a comprehensive squeeze and infiltration coming from all directions!
The blood no longer seemed to flow, but rather struggled to travel through the veins.

The brain experiences intense dizziness and a stinging sensation due to the momentary delay in blood supply.

Fine golden specks even appeared before my eyes.

He clenched his teeth so hard that his gums even bled slightly from the force.

The veins on his forehead and neck were bulging.

The skin all over the body turned an abnormal red due to the rupture of capillaries under pressure.

Everything felt exactly the same as when I lost control under three times gravity.

The difference between 2.8 times and 3 times is only 0.2.

But the pressure did not diminish at all, and when it appeared in front of Jiang Nian again, it was still unbearable for him.

At this moment, he even had a moment of realization, wondering how he had survived under three times the gravity.

No wonder the doctor and his colleagues were so alarmed after seeing that shocking data.

Only by experiencing it again can one truly appreciate how difficult the challenge was.

It's truly a miracle that I survived.

Jiang Nian forced herself to calm down.

Discard all distracting thoughts and focus all your attention on your body.

"I can't fall... so close... just a little bit more..."

Time seems so long at this moment.

He could feel his internal energy being rapidly depleted.

My body's endurance is nearing its limit.

But at the same time, he could also clearly sense the forging effect under that extreme pressure.

My body is undergoing some kind of mysterious change.

The meridians are widened under pressure.

After the muscle fibers are torn, they are quickly repaired by refined internal energy and the body's potential.

Most importantly, he felt a closer connection between himself and his own inner strength.

That barrier of mastery has become as thin as a cicada's wing under these repeated attacks.

It looked like it was about to be pierced at any moment!

One hour, two hours...

When the timer inside the training pod showed that Jiang Nian had endured 2.8 times the gravity for a full three hours.

His body was almost on the verge of collapse.

His internal energy was nearly depleted, and he was in pain all over his body.

The mind is also exhausted from constantly resisting strong pressure and nerve load.

not enough.

Jiang Nian shook his head helplessly.

Although he had endured three hours of torment, he even felt that he had the potential to successfully break through to the Grandmaster level.

However, what he currently perceives is still only a possibility, not the ability to completely break through.

He needs more training.

However, his physical condition no longer allowed him to continue.

He slowly guided the last bit of internal energy within his body, calming his surging blood and qi.

Then he reached out and laboriously pressed the stop button.

"Om-"

The buzzing stopped abruptly.

The terrifying gravity that drove us to despair receded instantly, like a receding tide.

"thump!"

A strong feeling of weightlessness and exhaustion washed over me.

Jiang Nian could no longer hold on and collapsed to the ground, panting heavily.

The extreme weakness and excruciating pain throughout his body left him without the strength to even move a finger.

But as he lay on the ground, a satisfied smile slowly crept onto his lips.

After resting for a full half hour, Jiang Nian finally managed to regain some strength.

He struggled to sit up and began to circulate his internal energy to regulate his breathing.

This training session was far more effective than any previous one.

As long as we go through a few more rounds of such trials and find that crucial opportunity.

Breaking through to the Grandmaster realm will no longer be an unattainable dream!

While Jiang Nian was immersed in arduous training...

The filming of "iPartment" has also entered its climax.

As "iPartment Diary" continues to be updated, the behind-the-scenes footage and stories being released are becoming increasingly captivating.

The show's popularity even before its release is becoming increasingly apparent.

Online discussions about the main characters remain very heated.

There have even been many fan-created artworks and jokes.

This level of interest has naturally attracted the attention of more investors.

Some investors who had previously adopted a wait-and-see attitude, or who dared not approach the company due to pressure from Li Tianlan and Xinghui Capital, were also involved.

After confirming Mr. Wang's attitude and the enormous potential shown by the production team.

They began to extend an olive branch to Wei Zheng.

This made Wei Zheng feel unprecedented pressure, even as he was overjoyed.

Ample funding means that production can be of higher quality and promotion can be more effective.

But it also means balancing the interests of more parties and dealing with more complex interpersonal relationships.

He is, after all, a creative director, and not particularly adept at business operations and interpersonal relationships.

Especially when faced with such a large amount of money, many hesitated before investing in its extinction program.

Meanwhile, a man who was the chief operating officer of Brilliant Pictures approached Wei Zheng.

The other party didn't waste any words with him when they came over; instead, they directly handed him a contract.

After reading the contract, Wei Zheng was completely dumbfounded.

Firstly, it's surprising that such low-level entertainment industry capital would take a liking to my script.

Secondly, the amount of money offered by the other party was truly enormous.

They are willing to provide investments far exceeding those of Star Capital.

They also pledged to leverage their extensive distribution channels to ensure the smooth broadcast and promotion of "iPartment".

However, they also made a request: they wanted a female actress of their choosing to be added to the cast, in a significant, recurring role.

Wei Zheng frowned as he looked at the actress's information handed to him.

This actress has a good appearance, but her acting style leans towards idol dramas.

It is completely out of step with the natural and lifelike comedic style of "iPartment".

If it were forcibly added, it could very likely disrupt the rhythm and atmosphere of the entire series.

"Mr. Liu, thank you very much for Brilliant Pictures' recognition."

Upon seeing the contract, Wei Zheng's voice trembled slightly.

After all, so much money isn't something you can just throw away easily.

"However, the cast of our production team is basically fixed, and the character settings are all tailored to the existing actors."

"Adding an important new character at the last minute could affect the overall structure and feel of the script..."

Upon hearing this, Mr. Liu's smile faded slightly.

He leaned back slightly, his tone carrying an air of unquestionable authority.

"Director Wei, you have to be flexible in business."

"This actor is a rising star that our group is heavily promoting. He has a good image and a good fan base. He can only benefit your drama and will not do you any harm."

"As for the script, can't we just make a few minor changes?"

"I believe that with Director Wei's talent, this is definitely not a problem."

Wei Zheng's expression was rather unpleasant.

He loves his scripts like he loves his own children.

No one shall be allowed to arbitrarily alter its essence for commercial gain.

"Mr. Liu, this is not a matter of changing the script, but a matter of creative philosophy."

"The core of 'iPartment' is the story between this group of young people who have a strong chemistry."

"Forcing in an unrelated but important character will dilute this core appeal."

"I'm sorry, I really can't accept this condition."

The smile on Mr. Liu's face vanished completely.

He looked at Wei Zheng coldly.

"Director Wei, you should think this through."

"Having missed out on our Brilliant Pictures, can you find a better partner for this project?"

"As far as I know, Xinghui Capital has quite a few complaints about you."

The implied threat in those words made Wei Zheng's heart sink.

He knew that this wasn't just the opinion of Brilliant Pictures alone.

This likely indicates that certain forces within the industry are still pessimistic about or coveting their project.

"I believe the value of 'iPartment' lies not in which celebrities were cast, but in its quality and sincerity."

Wei Zheng straightened his back, his tone was polite, but his attitude was unusually firm.

"If your company's cooperation is based on interfering with creative work, then I think we may not be destined to cooperate."

"good very good!"

Mr. Liu suddenly stood up, his face filled with anger.

"Director Wei truly has integrity!"

"I hope your 'iPartment' will be as successful as you imagine!"

"We'll see!"

After saying that, he walked away.

After seeing off Mr. Liu, whose meeting ended badly, Wei Zheng rubbed his temples wearily.

I felt utterly exhausted.

The world of capital is far more complex and ruthless than the filming set.

Even with Jiang Nian backing him up, he couldn't possibly handle it perfectly on his own.

He told Tang Youyou and several core actors about it.

Everyone felt indignant after hearing this.

At the same time, we cherish even more the team that we are currently united with purely for the purpose of making a good film.

"Old Wei, well done!"

Hu Yifei slammed her hand on the table.

"Our show is so good, we don't need to worry about a lack of viewers!"

"Those who try to promote actors by sending their own people to the stars are clearly not genuinely cooperating!"

"that is!"

"Our Love Apartment cannot have a single outsider!"

Zeng Xiaoxian, unusually, put away his cheeky expression and spoke seriously.

"Director Wei, we support you!"

Others also expressed their opinions.

Seeing the trust and support in his partners' eyes, Wei Zheng felt much of the gloom dissipate.

He took a deep breath, and his eyes regained their resolve.

"That's right!"

"Let our work speak for itself!"

"As long as we make a good and outstanding film, I don't believe there won't be people who appreciate its value!"

However, the tree wants to be quiet but the wind keeps on.

A few days later, negative news about the "iPartment" production team suddenly began to circulate online.

This time it's no longer targeting Wei Zheng personally or the script.

Instead, they started fabricating rumors and sensationalizing stories about discord between the actors.

Several photos of Hu Yifei and Zeng Xiaoxian with serious expressions on set while discussing the script.

It was interpreted as a constant argument.

Lu Ziqiao and Chen Meijia were just joking around normally in private.

The relationship was described as ambiguous, which affected the filming.

Tang Youyou even appeared slightly tired due to continuous filming.

It has also been said that she was ostracized by other actors and was under too much pressure.

These messages may seem trivial, but with the help of online trolls, they quickly gained momentum.

This has once again sparked doubts among some netizens who are unaware of the facts.

It's worth noting that the popularity of "iPartment" on the internet is not what it used to be.

Back then, they were just unknown newcomers, but now, thanks to variety shows and behind-the-scenes footage, they've gained popularity.

Love Apartment has already gained a very large number of fans.

Therefore, when these messages were released, they naturally attracted the attention of many netizens.

Is there really a problem within the production crew?

"The atmosphere doesn't seem very harmonious. Were all those behind-the-scenes clips just acting?"

"As expected, fame brings trouble. They're already fighting amongst themselves before the show even airs?"

Having learned from past experiences, the crew had developed a certain immunity to these rumors.

But this constant harassment and stigmatization is as annoying as flies.

It more or less affected the shooting process.

"It must be Brilliant Pictures' doing!"

"Or perhaps Xinghui Capital hasn't given up either!"

Zeng Xiaoxian was so angry he wanted to grind his teeth.

"Why are these people never going to stop?!"

Chen Meijia also pouted, looking dissatisfied.

Seeing everyone's somewhat downcast mood, Wei Zheng felt anxious, but couldn't think of a good solution for the time being.

The statement refuting the rumors has been issued, but its effect has been limited.

The other party is hiding in the shadows, using low-cost online troll tactics to constantly annoy people.

Just then, Jiang Nian returned to the film crew.

He keenly sensed the subtle changes in the atmosphere on set.

Compared to the enthusiasm and confidence of the last visit, this time there seemed to be a sense of oppression and restlessness.

"What's wrong? Are you in trouble?"

Jiang Nian found Wei Zheng and asked him directly.

Wei Zheng recounted with a wry smile the recent difficulties he had encountered with investors and the online rumors he had been subjected to. (End of Chapter)
