Chapter 314: 313. Box office

[What the heck? This wasn’t just a normal pickpocket incident? Dude, what kind of luck is this!]

[I’m freaking out!!! Dude, how can your luck be so insanely good? How could you encounter such a small probability???]

[Never would I have imagined this series of events, it’s been so long since the incident happened, and there’s still a twist? Everyone is staring with stunned eyes!]

[It was actually a Tomb Raider! No wonder those two looked so ferocious, ready to kill, seeming like they’ve been involved in homicides.]

[Uncle is mighty, managing to take down Tomb Raiders, now that’s a great service to the people!!!]

[Roar~~~ Uncle is truly uncle-like, every move he makes drops jaws all over the floor.]

[It’s not just about dropping jaws, maybe soon he’ll wipe out a whole nest of Tomb Raiders, emmmmm~~~]

[Holy crap, does that mean those two were desperadoes? They even took hostages, if Uncle hadn’t been there, that hostage would have probably been... It’s too frightening to imagine.]

[Damn, the person above, you scared the daylights out of me with that line!]

[It’s incredibly terrifying! But what you said makes a lot of sense, if the hostage had fallen into the hands of those desperadoes, they would likely have been killed.]

[I’m impressed, really impressed, from now on, if I respect no one else, I’ll respect Uncle.]

...

Tang Shu scrolled through a few pages and replied to one of the more liked comments, then turned to check the trending searches.

And as expected, the trending topic was also about the hostage.

[Tang Shu unintentionally saves a life]

The headline was bold and bright, followed by the word "boiling".

Even though Shen Yan was trying to lower the heat, it was still not very effective.

Before this hostage rescue incident became a huge topic, everyone didn’t think too much about it, assuming that even if Tang Shu hadn’t been there, the thug would have released the hostage after getting what they wanted.

But after today’s news appeared, no one thought that way anymore.

They directly slapped Tang Shu with the label of ’saving a life’.

Tang Shu frowned and unconsciously scratched her hair.

Going bald.

For an actor, it is television dramas or movies that truly represent their ability.

When popularity overshadows the work itself, people tend to look through tinted glasses, and acting skills become invisible.

Now she had been in the industry for less than a year, with few works, and due to being in school, the number of dramas and movies she could take on was even fewer.

Originally, she had planned to focus on school...

Now it seems, that path is no longer viable.

"I should take on another script of good quality."

Otherwise, if she made a few more appearances on the trending searches, she would become a bona fide traffic star.

Not a good sign.

***

Just as the idea of finding more work for herself surfaced, Tang Shu saw new messages in the Heroes in Troubled Times film crew group chat on WeChat.

She opened the chat to find the group discussing the movie’s box office.

Since its release on New Year’s Eve, Heroes in Troubled Times had won first place with its magnificent scenes, rich plot, and the exquisite acting of its cast, reaching a box office of 150 million on opening day.

In the days that followed, the box office was unrivaled; positive word-of-mouth kept the film’s earnings rising, with a record single-day high of over two billion.

Nearly half a month had passed, and it had already broken through the 3 billion mark.
