Chapter 103 God-level Operation! Something's not right here!
The sound of keyboards clattering in the live stream again was like heavenly music to the eagerly awaiting viewers.
Previously, the 25th act of the Ming Dynasty had only just begun, and Hai Rui's legendary scene, "I have no son and have no intention of leaving Chun'an alive," had just been performed. While the audience was still feeling excited, the subsequent events occurred, causing the plot of the Ming Dynasty to be interrupted.
Now that Chen Yu has started writing the script for "The Ming Dynasty" again, the audience is naturally very excited. Even the noisy keyboard clicks sound like they are listening to a symphony.
But for executives at Huaying Film Company and other top-tier film and television companies, the sound of keyboards clicking again sent a chill down their spines.
Even though the top management of Huaying Company had already persuaded Master Wang to come out of retirement and were full of confidence, the psychological shadow that Chen Yu had inflicted on them before still lingered. At this moment, they could not take it lightly, and everyone's expression was tense, showing a sense of being on high alert.
The atmosphere in the offices of Huaying Company's top executives was tense, as if they were facing a storm. However, among them, Master Wang appeared very calm, like a seasoned general who had grasped the battlefield in his mind and was a master strategist.
Seeing the tense expressions on the faces of Huaying's executives, Master Wang chuckled and shook his head, speaking leisurely. "Why are you all so nervous? Your veins are practically bulging." "Relax, relax, with me here, what's there to worry about?" The Huaying executives breathed a sigh of relief, but the sound of keyboards clicking in their ears still made them uneasy. They said with wry smiles.
"Master, how can you be so calm?" Master Wang smiled slightly and said unhurriedly.
"I've probably written more screenplays in my life than you've read. I have two in the top ten of the best drama lists and four in the top twenty." "I consider myself a master of screenwriting, and that's not an exaggeration, is it?" "Screenwriting is a slow and meticulous process; you can't rush it. Every stroke has to be carefully considered, with subtle clues and foreshadowing to create a truly excellent screenplay."
"Chen Yu is still too young. His train of thought was interrupted by the unexpected event. Shouldn't he take some time to process his emotions, reorganize his thoughts, and find his rhythm again?"
"None of these things can be rushed; rushing them is actually bad. But he started writing as soon as he got back. What does that mean? It means he was so eager to prove you wrong that he lost his composure."
"I don't even need to look at what was written in this state to know it's unusable; it'll need at least a major overhaul." "So I'm not in a hurry or panic at all. I even feel a little amused. Young people still can't handle big scenes." "I can guarantee right now that this scene is already won." Master Wang's confident words were like a reassurance, instantly dispelling the unease among the Huaying executives present, replacing it with admiration for this master screenwriter.
"Master Wang truly lives up to his reputation as a master screenwriter! Young people like Chen Yu simply don't understand what the word 'master' means!"
"Master, you see things so clearly. Compared to you, we are truly ashamed!" Master Wang waved his hand, looking quite relaxed. "Alright, enough with the flattery. I need to make myself a cup of tea." "The pre-Qingming Longjing tea and spring water I left at the company, please keep them safe for me?" a senior executive from Huaying asked hurriedly.
"Of course! Master Wang, we have your tea room cleaned spotlessly every day, and the tea pets are watered with the finest tea every day. We've also added a few more sets of fine wood-fired kiln teaware, all waiting for you to come to our company to taste them."
Master Wang nodded in satisfaction, his expression relaxed and his steps light as he walked towards the tea room, showing no regard for Chen Yu or the Ming Dynasty.
After all, in his view, how could his judgment, based on so many years of experience, be wrong? Chen Yu panicked, and the game was already over the moment he typed the first word!
As they watched Master Wang leave the office, the remaining executives of Huaying all breathed a sigh of relief, their expressions relaxing.
They watched Chen Yu intently typing on the screen, a hint of mockery and smirk on their faces. "Chen Yu probably really thinks he can outshine our Huaying."
"Heh, if he knew that Master Wang had already announced his defeat, I wonder what he would think." "He'd probably only realize then how insignificant his achievements are, how utterly worthless they are compared to those of a master screenwriter!"
At this moment, their mocking gazes fell on the screen, intending to see how the fans of the Ming Dynasty would react after seeing the plot written by Chen Yu, which had dropped significantly in quality.
Just then, lines of text appeared before their eyes. Instantly, the eyes of the Huaying executives shrank drastically.
After Hai Rui's legendary scene, Tian Youlu was naturally subdued again and had no choice but to follow Hai Rui's advice and borrow another day's worth of grain from a wealthy family in the city.
Not long after they left, Tian Youlu hurriedly returned, bringing news that grain ships carrying lanterns from the textile bureau had come to buy land.
Upon hearing this news, Hai Rui was shocked and repeatedly asked Tian Youlu about the situation.
After confirming that the grain ships were indeed carrying lanterns from the Imperial Textile Bureau, Hai Rui had already figured out his plan. The fact that these grain ships were carrying lanterns from the Imperial Textile Bureau meant that the palace was now involved.
For local officials, this was a huge vortex, and no one dared to get involved anymore; they all wished they could stay far away from it.
Even Zheng Bichang and He Maocai dared not approach Chun'an at this time, fearing they would be drawn into the vortex. But Hai Rui was not afraid!
Not only was he not afraid of the grain ships carrying the lanterns of the Weaving Bureau, he even wanted to seize them all! In this way, the grain that these wealthy silk merchants brought to buy land at low prices would be seized, and their plans to acquire land would naturally fall apart!
However, Hai Rui cannot leave now; he must not leave the prison, lest the prisoners in the cell be murdered to silence them, and he himself will be doomed.
Hai Rui's scheming and calculating nature was never shown in the previous Ming Dynasty TV series due to time constraints. Very few viewers could discern it.
But this psychological calculation actually reflects another aspect of Hai Rui's character. That is, although he is tough, he is by no means reckless.
In terms of wisdom and shrewdness, Hai Rui was second to none; it's just that most of the time, he disdained such things!
Some people say that Hai Rui only sought fame and had no real ability, which is truly ridiculous. This passage can completely refute that claim!
In this life, Chen Yu fully wrote this psychological scheming in the script. Viewers, upon seeing it, exclaimed "666!" and "It has to be you, Hai Rui!"
"Others don't even dare to get involved in this, but Hai Rui is already thinking about seizing these grain ships." "What's with hanging lanterns? It seems Hai Rui isn't afraid at all, awesome!" Before the audience could finish shouting "awesome," an even more explosive scene unfolded. The script's perspective suddenly shifted from Hai Rui to Tian Youlu, who had just walked out of prison. At this moment, Tian Youlu was in the county government's signing room with Wang, the jailer of the county prison. Besides them, there were also Commander Jiang and Commander Xu, who had come from Hangzhou.
They came to carry out the order given by Zheng and He to kill the prisoners in jail to silence them. Now, in order to get Tian Youlu and Wang, these two local bullies, to help them, the two commanders revealed the entire operation to them. Tian Youlu and Wang were utterly horrified.
Who the hell would want to get involved in something so potentially fatal? Under the watchful eyes of the two commanders, Tian Youlu, with remarkable shrewdness, came up with an excuse. "The magistrate of Hai County sent me to inform the weaving bureau's ships. The people there are waiting for me; I have to go immediately."
Seeing the excuse Tian Youlu came up with in the blink of an eye, even the bigwigs in the audience showed expressions of admiration. "Tian Youlu is brilliant, truly brilliant!" "Although he's a nobody, the survival wisdom of a nobody shouldn't be underestimated. To be able to live so comfortably in the local area for so many years, Tian Youlu's ability to protect himself is truly amazing."
"Look at the excuse he came up with in that split second! The people from the weaving bureau are still waiting for him; that's a perfect excuse."
"Because the Imperial Textile Bureau is part of the palace, it has a devastating influence over almost all officials. The only way for Tian Youlu to leave this place is to take advantage of the Imperial Textile Bureau's influence and get away as soon as possible."
"Tian Youlu is really amazing to have thought of this in such a short time." However, Tian Youlu was ultimately unable to leave the duty room.
The area was completely surrounded by soldiers from the local government office, making it impossible for Tian Youlu to leave. Commander Jiang and Commander Xu also watched Tian Youlu with cold smiles.
"I've told you everything about the murder to cover it up, and you think you can just walk out of this door like this?" At this moment, Tian Youlu immediately knelt down and began to pour out his grievances. The sheer logic and order of his complaints were astonishing.
【My lords, I have elderly parents and young children to support. For the sake of my family, I will not reveal this matter.】
As for the matter of using knives and guns, this humble servant is neither capable nor able to do it...
When the two commanders urged him to sign the document immediately, Tian Youlu simply lingered there.
[I'm just a lowly eighth-rank official. This is a matter of great importance; my presence or absence makes no difference. Please, sir, show some leniency and don't drag me into it.]
It can be said that Tian Youlu's series of actions have revealed everything he could, making his claims extremely convincing. First, he proactively revealed his weakness: he has elderly parents and young children to support, and he couldn't possibly leak secrets for the sake of his family. Then, he said he wasn't good at this kind of thing, and finally, he played the victim to gain sympathy.
An ordinary person would probably be speechless at this point, let alone able to utter such coherent words. Unfortunately, the two commanders were determined, and no matter how much Tian Youlu pleaded and begged for mercy, there was nothing they could do. Even the jailer, Wang, was not spared and was also forced to sign a document.
Prisoner Wang humbly offered the excuse that he was illiterate, but the two officers saw through it immediately. They wondered who signed the documents when he received money and goods at the yamen, and whether someone would always help Prisoner Wang.
Under such coercion, Prison Chief Wang had no choice but to walk step by step toward the table. He also demonstrated the wisdom of a small person in this situation.
Prisoner Wang's hands trembled uncontrollably. He had instinctively gripped the brush, but immediately changed his posture, holding the brush like someone who was truly illiterate, and wrote his name in large letters on the document.
This is obviously different from his usual handwriting. If he gets involved later, this will at least provide some leverage in the dispute.
This attention to detail made many viewers laugh, but many others found themselves crying as they laughed. "My goodness, I suddenly feel so sorry for Tian Youlu and Prison Warden Wang."
"The humble accountant feels like he's seeing himself in real life. Waaah, there are so many things I shouldn't have signed, but I have no choice but to sign them for the sake of my job."
"The laughter faded quickly, and I picked up my pen to seriously study Wang Laotou and Tian Youlu." "Civil Engineering Quality Management Personnel +1" "Elevator Company Quality Management Personnel +1"
In no time, the live stream chat became a grievance session for people in various "high-risk" jobs, and the live stream's popularity soared.
Countless viewers were also moved.
"If the previous memorable scenes were god-level clashes between big shots, then this scene is a god-level operation by ordinary people like Tian Youlu and Prison Warden Wang. Within the limits of their abilities, they have done the best that ordinary people can do!"
While the audience was either laughing and cheering or couldn't help but complain, the executives of Huaying Company exchanged glances, looking at each other with obvious puzzled expressions.
"Didn't Master Wang say that the plot Chen Yu wrote in such a hurry was definitely unusable and not worth worrying about?" "But don't you guys think..."
"This feels... kind of like before?" "This...this doesn't feel right!" Before they could even react, Chen Yu's keyboard pounding suddenly erupted. The next scene burst forth! Hai Rui's divine intervention was reborn!
At this moment, accompanied by Chen Yu's increasingly intense typing, more and more words appeared on the screen, depicting this thrilling and perilous night in the Chun'an County prison. After being coerced by the two commanders into signing a document and forced onto the pirate ship, Tian Youlu and the jailer Wang came to the prison. Behind them were four soldiers from the yamen.
Their purpose in coming here was to lure Hai Rui out of prison, as instructed by the two commanders. This would make killing the prisoners to silence them incredibly easy. Chen Yu emphasized the expressions of Tian Youlu and the jailer Wang here.
Tian Youlu looked at Hai Rui, wanting to laugh, but couldn't manage a laugh at all.
