Chapter 246 Theatrical Version Airing

It has been more than half a year since the second season of "Stars in the Sky" came to an end.

Three months after the end of the second season, Glimmer, the Stellaris production team released a special episode titled "The Innate Strong 2," dedicated to Tiandao, to maintain the buzz during the gap between the second and third seasons of Stellaris.

What the audience didn't expect was that shortly after the spin-off ended, the production team of All Stars released another big surprise.

That is the theatrical version of "The Grand Concert Hall on the Sea" by Qunxing.

Unlike typical offline movie screenings, the production team of Qunxing Productions unusually adopted a simultaneous release across all platforms.

Some industry insiders criticized this move as a violation of the rules.

Some people felt that they were trying a new way to break into new circles.

But none of that matters to anime fans, because the theatrical version of All Stars has been released.

[Current world, 8 PM, 13 stations.]

'First!'

'Finally, the theatrical version is here!'

'The "Tianka" party declares it has taken over the bullet screen section!'

"Wow, you guys with the 'day pass' card have quite the airs of authority!"

As the movie screen lights up, the first thing that catches everyone's eye is the train station in the steam city, emitting large amounts of white steam.

"I said, 'Empty,' are you stupid?"

"Isabel offered to upgrade us, but you insist on making us squeeze into these sardine-can-like second-class seats?"

Liu Ma squeezed into the crowd, his shoulders turning red from the pressure of his backpack straps.

Chen Kong rolled his eyes at him and said irritably, "Isn't other people's money money? Besides, if you want to upgrade, why don't you just pay for it yourself?"

"That's working capital!"

Liu Ma, with his neck stiffened, retorted loudly and righteously, his voice so loud that it seemed particularly clear even in the noisy station.

"Besides, this is a private trip, the company won't reimburse it! Save where you should and spend where you should, don't you know anything about financial management?"

As he spoke, Liu Ma patted his pockets smugly, revealing his true nature as a 'miser'.

Chen Kong crossed his arms and said sarcastically without any politeness, "Don't make it sound so nice. You just want to take advantage of others, don't you?"

"What do you mean by taking advantage? This is an investment in her network, and I'll definitely pay it back in the future!"

"hehe."

Seeing that Chen Kong was completely unmoved, Liu Ma, who had finally passed through the security checkpoint and gained a little respite, immediately retorted sarcastically.

"What are you laughing at? You're so inflexible and don't know how to adapt."

Chen Kong, who had just passed through the security checkpoint, immediately retorted without any politeness.

"I don't know how to be flexible? Then you're a miserly tightwad, a penny-pincher!"

"You're such a stubborn idiot!"

"You miser!"

"Stubborn!"

"Miser!"

Watching Liu Ma and Chen Kong, face to face, passionately arguing, Vivian next to them pinched her brow in exasperation.

These two, who are almost forty combined, bicker like elementary school kids whenever they meet. They're hopeless.

Just as she was wondering whether she should step in to ease the tension, a loud whistle suddenly drowned out the noise inside the station.

In the distance, a steam train belching white steam slowly pulled into the station on the tracks.

"Alright, you two, the ticket check is about to begin, let's go in."

Vivian quickly smoothed things over, grabbing one of them with each hand and dragging the two, who were still glaring at each other, toward the ticket gate.

"Let's settle any grudges after we get on the train. If we miss the train, we won't be able to see the concert."

Upon hearing Vivian's words, Chen Kong and Liu Ma exchanged a few snorts and turned their faces away sullenly.

Just as the three walked towards the ticket line, the camera in the movie quietly zoomed in, giving a close-up of Chen Kong's chest pocket. A concert ticket with slightly curled edges was revealed, with gold lettering printed on it.

【Star Origin Era 101st Anniversary New Generation Queen Jing Liuli New Year's Eve Concert: Scarlet Mist City Station】

[Time: 19:00, December 31]

While waiting to have his ticket checked, Liu Ma's attention was quickly drawn to the large screen advertisements at the station.

And what was displayed on the screen was none other than the latest concert promotional PV for Jing Liuli.

The purple-haired girl in the advertisement is on stage, waving to the camera with dazzling starlight.

She possesses both the charisma of a star and a unique sense of approachability.

Looking at the advertisement, Liu Ma couldn't help but ask, "Kong, how much money do you think Liuli can make from a single concert these days?"

"I don't know, a few million? Or more?"

Just as Chen Kong finished speaking, a girl next to them suddenly struck up a conversation.

Are you also going to the City of Scarlet Mist to see the New Year's Eve concert by Liuli?

The two turned their heads and saw a pink-haired girl in a JK uniform looking at them with a pair of beautiful, large eyes.

Her pink twin tails swayed gently in the breeze outside the platform, exuding cuteness and youthfulness.

Looking at the girl's incredibly cute appearance, before Chen Kong could speak, Liu Ma suddenly pulled Chen Kong aside, lowered his voice to a low and hoarse tone, and tried to appear mature and composed, answering, "That's right, that's right, we are all loyal fans of Jing Liuli."

As he spoke, Liu Ma deliberately took out his concert tickets to prove his point.

Seeing Liu Ma's pretentious and profound demeanor, and being pushed so hard that he stumbled and fell, Chen Kong immediately began to complain in his heart with annoyance.

Seriously, man? You fell in love at first sight?

You even started speaking in a high-pitched voice, isn't that disgusting?

Meanwhile, viewers on 13 stations burst into laughter as they watched Liu Ma's art style suddenly become strange.

'You're done for, Liu Ma! You've fallen in love!'

'Liu Ma, you old bastard, you actually went after a JK (high school girl)! Just wait for Uncle Hat to come and arrest you!'

'A middle-aged office worker meets a high school girl? This doesn't seem like a good idea!'

'Is that high-pitched voice trying to make me laugh so hard I'll inherit my Alipay account?'

Looking at the concert tickets in Liu Ma's hand, the JK girl felt as if she had found her tribe.

She cupped her face in her hands, her eyes filled with the gleam of a fervent fan.

"That's great! I thought no one here understood glass besides me!"

"My classmates all say her singing is just average, and she only became popular because of her looks and Dream Star Source. It makes me so angry!"

"Nonsense!"

Without any hesitation, Liu Ma immediately retorted righteously, "Liuli's skill is undeniable! The transitions in 'Starry Night Lullaby' are absolutely amazing! Those people are just jealous!"

"Yes, yes, yes! Uncle, you're absolutely right!"

The JK girl nodded vigorously, her ponytails swinging even more enthusiastically.

"M-Uncle?"

Liu Ma's smile froze on his face instantly, and his lips twitched uncontrollably.

"Um, I... I'm actually only nineteen."

"what?"

The JK girl blinked, quickly covered her mouth, and bowed repeatedly in apology.

"I'm so sorry! It's just that you look too mature. I thought you were over thirty!"

"puff!"

Watching Liu Ma's face turn from red to green and then to white, awkwardly scratching his head and muttering "I call this maturity and composure," Chen Kong couldn't help but burst out laughing.
