Chapter 254: Chapter 235: One Hundred Million Profit Card (4k)_2
Wang Ren shook his head, "It can’t be summarized, these few scenes are crucial,"
Not only could it not be simplified, but even switching their order was not a good idea. They had made a lot of preparations for today’s two key scenes, and moving them to a later time would waste today’s efforts.
"Ah, then it’s up to Wu Mu to adjust himself," Yang Rongfa sighed.
...
Having repeated it four or five times, Wu Mu was also getting a headache at this point. He was nibbling on a chocolate bar sent by another investor of the crew, replenishing sugar, while frowning and thinking about how exactly to shoot the upcoming scenes.
His role in the drama didn’t have much screentime; the total duration of his appearances might not even add up to one episode.
But the importance of the role was significant.
This character acted as a bridge and was a bit of a plot device.
He mainly had two roles to play.
One was to fall in love with the female lead, giving her a reason to carry on, and then dying while saving her.
The other was to link the female lead to her father, the main character Wang An, through his death. His father couldn’t move past his death even after eighteen years, longing to uncover the true cause, which leads to him immediately restarting the investigation upon discovering clues eighteen years later.
Today’s two scenes were the most crucial emotional scenes for this character. Since they took place in the same setting, they were being shot together.
One scene was where the female lead, Lin Mo, in utter despair, attempts suicide by jumping into a river. Wu Mu tries to save her, Lin Mo is rescued, but Wu Mu drowns.
The other scene was also a water scene, serving as an echo to the first one.
It was when he went to confess his love to the female lead and then falls into the water after his confession is rejected.
The filming schedule for today was to shoot the scenes in chronological order, the second scene first, then the first scene.
Wu Mu was stumbling at the start of the second scene.
The rough content of the scene was that after a series of events and emotional changes, both he and the female lead, Lin Mo, had developed feelings for each other.
Then, the female lead’s perverted uncle approached him, telling him he wasn’t worthy of her and should stay away.
But this only triggered his defiance, pushing him to go and confess his feelings to Lin Mo.
Then... he was rejected by Lin Mo, who was interested but carried the burden of family and past issues.
Unaware of all this, he was stunned and confused.
Then he noticed how Lin Mo was always watching the river.
Sensing the continuous desire in Lin Mo to escape everything, he made a promise while also reaffirming his confession.
He told Lin Mo that if she ever jumped in, he would definitely follow and jump in to save her.
The actual jump into the water that followed the scene was the key shot, but Wu Mu hadn’t even reached that point today and was already stuck.
He was stuck on the very beginning of the confession, on the words "I like you."
For these two major scenes, the very dedicated Wu Mu had actually studied them beforehand and had even planned some subtle movements.
Unfortunately, it all seemed useless – he was cut off as soon as the shooting started.
At first, he thought it might be a mistake in his performance.
But after several cuts in a row, Wang Ren, who usually disliked explaining reasons, specifically told him that it was the feeling that was off.
Even Sun Yueqing sitting next to him was scratching her head, "Your confession sounds strange – like the emotions aren’t strong enough?"
Not enough emotion?
Wu Mu sighed helplessly, "Maybe it’s because I lack experience; I can’t quite grasp how to express it."
No experience?
Sun Yueqing gave him a look that screamed ’you’re kidding me, right?’ and mockingly said, "How can you say that with a straight face when those screenshots of your chat with that rich investor can be found all over the internet!"
Wu Mu saw what she was getting at and shook his head, "I’ve never confessed to her."
What?
"You’ve never confessed to that person?" Sun Yueqing looked at him in disbelief.
Really?
She was somewhat skeptical!
After all, in the widely known screenshots of his WeChat messages, he was an absolute sycophant.
"Really."
And it was true.
Although he was the more vulnerable party later on, the pursuit had started with Liu Lan.
In his past life as well, he had little experience with confessions; his relationship with his girlfriend had evolved naturally.
The reenactment of the scene was not applicable, and it seemed like his Natural Actor Talent wasn’t providing any flashes of inspiration.
He had no idea how to capture that feeling all of a sudden.
So then... time for a lottery draw!
Wu Mu hesitated no more, directly opening his system panel.
With all the points he had saved up, it was time for another round of lottery draws.
[Points: 3223]
His points now truly amounted to a fortune.
Aside from the three hundred or so points left over from the previous lottery, all the rest were earned in the past two months.
Although from a time perspective, it didn’t seem much higher than what could be achieved from spending two full months appearing on variety shows.
But considering the workload and his screen time in the series, this was already a very high number.
This really was an inflation of values!
Gaga earning points!
Wu Mu looked at the points he had accumulated during this period, and the mood that had been stuck instantly improved a bit.
"With so many points, I could totally draw three Golden Treasure Boxes!"
However, after a bit of thought, he decided against the plan to directly draw three Golden Treasure Boxes.
He still needed items from the white treasure box, and had to replenish them.
Hmm, let’s buy ten white boxes first and see what I get. If I could draw a Rare Skill, it would save a good chunk of points.
Wu Mu directly operated the system panel and purchased ten white treasure boxes.
Then, without any hesitation, he opened them.
A flash of white light passed by.
[Congratulations, you’ve received Piano attribute points +1 reward.]x2
[Congratulations, you’ve received singing attribute +1 reward.]
[Congratulations, you’ve received acting attribute +1 reward.]X4
[Congratulations, you’ve received the song "every word and every sentence".]
[Congratulations, you’ve received a Performance Card (ten million).]X2
He didn’t get the Rare Skills he wanted.
Wu Mu glanced over everything and saw they were all ordinary items.
And...
"Why does it feel like the things that are coming out are getting less and less?"
He wondered to himself.
Before, a thousand points could get all sorts of things and props, the notifications could fill half the screen.
Now it looked just a few sparse lines.
Most were filled up with repetitive props.
And they were repetitive items he temporarily had no use for.
There was no need to mention the Piano attribute points; he was still far from being able to use them.
Acting was a new pit that sucked up points rewards, although he did naturally improve a bit during this period, gaining about four points.
After all, he had the Natural Actor Talent, but it was still relatively low.
There were only the singing attribute and Performance Card, and that song he could actually use.
It couldn’t be that the system was intensifying the recovery of points because it saw him swelling with points, could it?
He was very suspicious.
After feeling speechless for a moment, he turned his attention to the remaining points without caring too much.
"System, buy two Golden Treasure Boxes!"
Soon, two Golden Treasure Boxes reappeared on the system panel.
Wu Mu opened them directly.
A dark golden light flickered on the system panel.
[Congratulations, you’ve received a Profit Card (one hundred million).]
[Congratulations, you’ve received a Rare reward three-choice opportunity.]
Hmm?
There were two things that had never appeared before!
Wu Mu curiously looked at the newly released Treasure Box item classification.
First was the Profit Card, the one hundred million at the back looked a bit like the one hundred million Performance Card he received from the Starter Gift Package.
The word "Performance" was just switched to "Profit".
[Profit Bonus Card (one hundred million)]
[Effect: After use, it will increase your performance profits by one hundred million yuan. (Performance includes but is not limited to song sales, endorsements, advertising product sales, series licensing fees, movie box office, etc. The bonus will proceed with real purchases by real people, and the system will provide certain guidance and marketing to achieve the goal, without any aftermath.)]
[Evaluation: Want to make a comeback as an idol? Use this, and even if you’re a dog, you’ll sell like crazy.]
