After the filming was completed, I awakened my superpowers.

Chapter 72: The Legend of the Demon King Failed! Sheng Yixia's Life (Available next Tuesday, remember to pre-order)
……

After figuring out the key points.

Sheng Yixia replied directly: "Okay, I can accept the task. I'll give you an anonymous email address. Remember to contact me in advance."

"Okay, you should check your emails more carefully. And please rest assured that I will not leak this email address to anyone." Sister Fei did not waste any words and added, "In addition, it was our mistake to let Thorny Vine escape. We will bring her to justice as soon as possible."

"I will also send you some of the information we have collected about Thorny Vine. Although it may not be complete, it will at least give you a reference. Just in case, I mean just in case, you will be prepared if you run into her."

"Of course, Thorny Vine must be disguised now. If you meet her head-on, you will most likely not recognize her."

"Okay, then I understand." After Sheng Yixia finished chatting with Sister Fei, he searched for the ID "Silver Scale Breast Armor Hardware Piece" in the Add Friends list, found it, and added the other party. After a while, the system prompted "The other party has approved your friend request, and you can chat happily."

Sheng Yixia typed in the chat box: "Big brother, thank you for helping me advance the money to make the Little Ghost Cards. I will give you the 16 points I owe you."

"You're welcome. Is the equipment I made useful?"

"Great, really outstanding craftsmanship." Although Sheng Yixia has not used the Big and Small Ghost Cards yet, she has to admit that the two extraordinary cards are very beautifully made. The user experience must have been taken into consideration when they were made, and they feel very good.

Afterwards, he transferred 16 points to the other party, leaving 36 points in his account.

After chatting briefly with the equipment maker, Sheng Yixia skillfully turned off the computer and cut off the power supply. After finding the restroom and changing his clothes, he used his transportation card to take a taxi home.

After that, he brought Yingjun back, and they continued to train the cat while enjoying the evolution potion together, hoping that Yingjun could evolve into his combat pet as soon as possible.

In this way, by the evening, both the man and the cat were exhausted.

Damn, cat battle pets are too difficult to train.

Had dinner.

Sheng Yixia, who had nothing to do, was half lying on the sofa watching TV. Yingjun was slumped beside him like a puddle of mud, with his limbs facing the sky and his belly exposed, soundly sleeping.

The TV shows were boring.

Sheng Yixia decided to try it again, comparing her physical condition before and after taking off the card.

In fact, he had already tested the difference between putting on and taking off cards after he first got the [Card Control Technique].

At the beginning, after he installed the [Card Control Technique], he was as if assisted by God. His fingers were extremely flexible and sharp when shuffling and cutting the cards. But after he took off the [Card Control Technique], he suddenly became clumsy again. The difference was like heaven and earth.

However, as he loaded up the [Card Control Technique] and continued to practice card control techniques, gaining experience points, his finger sensitivity and card control techniques also improved significantly.

By now, the card control skill level has reached four and a half stars. Even if Sheng Yixia does not load the [Card Control] card, he can still play with a deck of playing cards. The flexibility of his fingers has made great progress compared to before he obtained the [Card Control] card.

Of course, there is still a big gap compared to the magical state after equipping [Card Control].

But Sheng Yixia had every reason to believe it.

As long as he keeps practicing and fighting with the card control technique, sooner or later he will be able to display abilities that are no less powerful than the card control technique itself after taking off the card control technique.

The same is true for Divine Mind Cards.

When Sheng Yixia used his divine consciousness again and again, he felt that his brain seemed to have been further developed. Now, even after he was separated from the divine consciousness card, he still possessed a trace of divine consciousness.

At this time, he had taken off the Divine Mind Card, but still possessed some Divine Mind power. Although it could not be compared with when the Divine Mind Card was loaded, he could fold a paper airplane and throw it out, and it would fly around nearby non-stop.

It also allows him to pick up a toothpick in mid-air within two or three meters.

However, after playing for a while, when Sheng Yixia determined the current strength of his naked spiritual power, he immediately reloaded the [Spiritual] card. In an instant, the whole world became "clear" before his eyes.

This feeling is like when a myopic person takes off his glasses and sees the world as blurry. He is very uncomfortable, but only after putting them back on does he finally feel comfortable again.

Among the current cards.

Sheng Yixia is most dependent on the Divine Mind Card and hopes it can be upgraded the most.

Before I knew it, it was eight o'clock.

He did not reply to Liu Juan, the producer of Sword Immortal Conquers the Demons, and Liu Juan did not send him any more messages urging him to do publicity and promotion. It seemed that everyone was silently waiting for the market to give results.

Whether a movie, a novel, or a TV series can sell well or how much it can sell is not up to anyone to decide.

Only by putting it into the market and subjecting it to the test of real money can we draw a conclusion.

In this world, there are countless movies that were highly anticipated in the early stages, but ended up being complete failures once they were released.

I don’t know how many works were ignored in the early stage, but were sought after by the market as soon as they were put on the shelves, and then became a huge hit and swept the market!
Ado.

Sheng Yixia started watching, but before he had even watched six minutes, he was a little confused, and his mind was full of thoughts: What the hell is this? Why should I watch this?
What is this talking about?
The first six minutes are all about various story backgrounds. Characters appear one after another. After you finish showing off, it's my turn. The camera keeps cutting back and forth, the story is fragmented, and the content is confusing.

Sheng Yixia felt dizzy after reading it and had no idea what the story was about.

But soon he suddenly woke up again.

I thought to myself, this is not good, I’m screwed.

Whether this movie is successful or not has little to do with him.

But what about his Divine Mind Card?
The thought of this.

Sheng Yixia's heart sank, because the quality upgrade of the Divine Mind Card must rely on the popularity and recognition of the character.

If this movie fails completely, these two data won’t improve and the cards won’t be able to upgrade!

The most important thing is that once this movie fails completely, it will be difficult to raise funds to produce the second part, and it will be even more difficult for Shennian Cards to improve its quality.

Could it be possible that he should be asked to take on other fantasy films?

But even if you star in a new fantasy film, you may not necessarily draw a spiritual card. Maybe you will draw other cards, such as [Flying Sword], which seems good, but is a useless card without the blessing of spiritual power cards.

Think about this.

Sheng Yixia felt a chill in her heart, and could only hope for the best and continue watching. Seventy minutes later...

His heart became colder.

Not only is the story of this film fragmented, but the post-production is also shoddy, giving off a sense of poverty and evidence of being rushed to get the film on the shelves.

The only thing worth mentioning is.

After the filming, the production crew found that Sheng Yixia had made the "Traffic Traffic King" popular with his handsome and cool image, and then they wanted to take advantage of his popularity, so they edited a few minutes of extra footage for him.

Those shots actually don't have much substantive content, they are just some poses that reflect his cold image.

There was even a shot of him flying a short distance in the air on a sword, and the shot was replayed three times from different camera angles!

These scenes made Sheng Yixia feel a little awkward. "I hope it's just my personal taste, maybe other people like this movie very much." Sheng Yixia could only cherish his beautiful vision, take a bath and go to bed. Before going to bed, he secretly gave himself psychological hints.

Maybe when he wakes up tomorrow morning, his divine mind card will have been upgraded to a blue top grade card!
Then he fell into a deep sleep.

The next morning.

After Sheng Yixia woke up, she collected herself for a few seconds before she could recall what happened last night.

He called the system immediately to check his precious divine mind card. What he saw was an ordinary white quality card with a pale color. This made Sheng Yixia's heart chilled again.

Could it be that we really have to bite the bullet and stick to it to promote The Sword Immortal Conquers the Demons?

For a film of this quality, Sheng Yixia really didn't have the face to say during the promotion - the online movie in which I starred is well-made!
Just when Sheng Yixia was feeling troubled, Zhang Qing sent a message: "Yixia, are you awake? Call me back when you have time."

Sheng Yixia called directly.

Zhang Qing's voice rang out from the other end of the phone: "You woke up pretty early. Did you watch the movie Exorcist? How did you feel about it?"

Sheng Yixia sighed and said, "Oh~ This feels a bit bad. How are the play data? Is there a chance of making a profit?"

"The data is a mess. Let alone making a profit, it's even a question whether we can get back one-third of the investment. I guess we'll lose a lot of money." Zhang Qing sneered, "This is because they put you in the center of the publicity posters and copywriting, and tricked a wave of your fans into watching it. Haha, that production team is really shameless~"

Sheng Yixia was speechless.

The crew is really daring. He just played a second villain, and there is a big boss above him. How can they put him in the center position for promotion? They really have no bottom line in taking advantage of his traffic.

With such a small role for him, it's actually normal for him not to participate in publicity and promotion.

"Liu Juan called me early in the morning and said she wanted to use a percentage split to ask us to help with the promotion." Zhang Qing got down to business. "I asked them directly for a guaranteed minimum of one million yuan in sales dividends, and 20% of sales exceeding five million, as our promotion requirements."

This condition.

Sheng Yixia was stunned when she heard this: "It's impossible for the other party to agree to such an outrageous condition, right?"

"Liu Juan refused to agree at first, but after a meeting, their internal investors decided to take a chance." Zhang Qing said, "This film has an investment of 4 million yuan, and the most they can get back is 1.5 million yuan at present. The investors are thinking that instead of losing a lot of money, they might as well take out 1 million of it as a last ditch effort. Once the sales dividend reaches 5 million, it will be back to the original cost! As for the two-part profit after 5 million yuan, they don't care about it now."

After all, she was Sister Zhang Qing, and the knife chopped down accurately and fiercely.

If it were Sheng Yixia, he would be too thin-skinned to be so ruthless even if he wanted to offer a price.

Of course, Sheng Yixia believed that what prompted the investors of "The Legend of Exorcist" to decide to take a gamble was probably his excellent publicity and promotion in "The King of Gambling" and "The King of Cooking", as well as his magical ability to turn the tide at critical moments.

While he was thinking, Zhang Qing said, "However, Yixia, you have to be careful when promoting this film. After all, the quality of this film is really not that good. You can't deceive and exploit your fans. If you really don't have a good idea, we don't have to take this job."

Although Zhang Qing is short of money now, she believes that the future is bright and there is no need to fight to the death with the Demon King.

"Let's give it a try." Sheng Yixia said, "I'll think of a solution."

He may not care whether "The Legend of Exorcist" makes a profit or not, and he may not care about the publicity and promotion expenses given by the production team, but he cares about whether the quality of his divine mind cards can be improved.

After pondering for a moment, Sheng Yixia came up with some ideas and roughly explained the plan he was considering.

"That's a good idea." Zhang Qing's eyes lit up. "How about this, I'll say hello to Director Li from the Super Detective crew, and we'll go and rent the venue and wirework from him."

Go rent a venue from the domineering director?

Sheng Yixia was silent for a moment, thinking of the twenty bundles of steamed buns - there was something he wanted to say but didn't know whether he should say it or not.

However, Zhang Qing had hung up the phone first, apparently to contact the other party. Ten minutes later, Zhang Qing called him back and said, "I have already communicated with Director Li. There is no problem with his side. You can go over this afternoon."

Ok.

Sheng Yixia didn't expect that the domineering director was so easy to talk to, so he made some preparations. In the afternoon, he took a taxi to the crew of "The Super Detective". Seeing that the domineering director was busy, he didn't feel like disturbing him. After waiting for about twenty minutes, the other party took the time to wave at him and asked him to come over.

"Hello, Director Li." Sheng Yixia smiled and handed over two bundles of her treasured steamed buns.

"Yes." The domineering director took it and handed it to the assistant director, "Find a restaurant to keep it fresh."

Although he is arrogant, he will not mess with Xiaolongmantou.

The assistant director took over and asked the stagehand to do the work.

Seeing that he was still arrogant, Sheng Yixia smiled and handed him a warm food box: "Director Li, this is the 'crab shell yellow' I made before noon. I'd like to trouble you, a gourmet, to taste it and give me some advice."

"Really?" The domineering director was obviously interested, but he still maintained a cold expression. He pretended to be nonchalant and picked up a crab shell and took a bite casually, but the next moment, he froze.

The fresh, fragrant and crisp taste dances in the mouth, as if a spring breeze blows across your face, the coldness on your face quickly melts away, replaced by a comfortable, cozy and extremely happy feeling of wandering in a warm ocean.

A small complaint in my heart towards Sheng Yixia...

Wait, when did I, Li Jianmin, have any opinion about Sheng Yixia?
No?
I can't express my admiration for this smart, capable, down-to-earth and handsome young man enough.

As for the little unpleasantness that had happened in the past, I had naturally forgiven him a long time ago.

"Yixia." Director Li, the boss, patted Sheng Yixia's shoulder with a warm face and said, "Your agent has already discussed it with me. Isn't it just borrowing the venue and using wires to shoot a short video?"

"Zhang Qing actually mentioned the venue fee and the wirework fee. Haha, is this looking down on me, Li Jianmin? What is the relationship between us?"

"Assistant Director, let's hurry up and shoot these scenes first. Let the wire crew get ready. I have to make a promotional video for Director Yixia later."

Sheng Yixia was completely stunned by what he heard.

No, is my crab shell yellow so powerful?

However, since the domineering director had spoken, Sheng Yixia naturally had no right to comment and was sent to the dressing room to put on makeup.

Have to admit.

The crew of "The Detective" is worthy of being a female-oriented big IP crew. The costumes and makeup are quite professional, far from being comparable to the poor crew of "The Legend of Exorcist". The crew has a very complete range of props, and the accessories such as wigs and crowns alone are dazzling.

With the joint efforts of two makeup teachers and two costume teachers.

Within an hour, Sheng Yixia appeared in a standard blackened villain costume, with a black-themed brocade robe with wide sleeves, an evil and flamboyant makeup, silver hair and a golden crown, and two strands of silver catfish-like hair falling on his shoulders.

Take a look in the standing mirror!
Good guy, Sheng Yixia exclaimed. Good guy.

Although this design imitates the design of Yin Wujiu in The Legend of Conquering the Demons, it is obviously much more exquisite and delicate in all aspects than the original Yin Wujiu.

you could put it that way.

Yin Wujiu's original image was quite good-looking, but compared with the makeup and styling in front of him, it seemed that the one in front of him was the authentic one, and the one in the movie was just a PDD copycat!
……

(Huh~ There’s no chance of opening the screen, I couldn’t rush up, I was notified that it will be put on the shelves in advance at the early morning of next Tuesday, the 19th. I updated words today. I hope brothers and sisters will subscribe next Tuesday. Thank you very much)
