Chapter 422: A New Bronze Ability!

Chapter 422: A New Bronze Ability!

‘”Wolf Warrior”? He’s even put “2” behind it?

‘Why does the name of the sequel sound so lame?

‘Could my gut feeling be mistaken?

‘”Wolf Warrior, The Sequel – Wolf Among Wolves” sounds nice as well, doesn’t it?’

As he pondered, Su Yang recalled the contents of the script and the project proposal. He then asked, “I noticed that a lot of modern weapons will be used in this movie. How do you intend to resolve this?”

Wu Feng smiled and said, “It’s all resolved. We have successfully collaborated with the Lingnan Military District. They will be providing all the weapons and equipment required. They will even send some people to assist with our filming.”

Su Yang nodded.

‘This project is looking pretty good.’

Wu Feng continued, “As for the special effects on our side, we will be mainly focusing on artillery and... wolves.”

“Wolves?” Su Yang asked. “Is the script about the war between humans and wolves?”

Wu Feng nodded. “That’s right. The scenes in that scenario are very important. It’s the finishing touch for the movie, hence the requirements for special effects are very high. There aren’t many companies within the country that are able to produce special effects that seem realistic. Plus, It’s not like we can let actors interact with real wolves, so we will need to handle it professionally.”

Su Yang nodded.

Then he started to talk about his company’s post-production technology as he tried to invest into that portion of the production as well.

Initially, Wu Feng thought that Su Yang only specialized in special effects, but he did not expect that Su Yang could even work with the post-production of a movie. Instantly, Wu Feng’s interests were piqued.

The two of them chatted for more than two hours. After watching Su Yang’s series of completed products and some minor samples, Wu Feng felt very satisfied. Finally, they reached a preliminary agreement.

Jiayuan Pictures would invest 60 million yuan as the production fee for special effects and 10 million yuan for post-production procedures into the “Wolf Warriors” saga, effectively becoming one of the producers of the saga with Su Yang as the main producer and director of the saga.

The overall investment for “Wolf Warriors” was around 150 million, Jiayuan Pictures would receive their profits based on the amount of investment they had in the movie and movie rights.

On the other hand, Wu Feng did not have any objections to Su Yang’s plan for the movie rights and the investment ratio for the sequel. In fact, Wu Feng agreed to it readily.

As a result, Jiayuan Pictures would enjoy the same investment ratio and rights for “Wolf Warriors 2” and other sequels in the saga.

Su Yang found it hard to believe that things would go so smoothly.

It was only after he used the [Memory Labyrinth Hourglass] that he realized, ‘Wu Feng has self-directed a movie with the same theme a few years ago called, “Legendary Assassin”. He invested tens of millions of yuan in the movie, but he only earned 7.56 million yuan at the box office in the end which has directly caused the downfall of his career.

‘Therefore, when he wanted to find investors to invest in “Wolf Warriors”, no one was willing to invest in it. Therefore, he had no choice but to borrow a lot of money for this movie out of desperation and is now under a lot of stress.’

Now that Su Yang was willing to share some of the burden and even invest in his future movies, it was a timely help for Wu Feng!

‘There’s nothing to hesitate about at all!

‘He can have it!

‘He can have everything he wants!’

‘If it wasn’t for the fact that Wu Feng wanted to maintain control of the production team and didn’t want the series to be done without him in control, he would have probably used my money to film the movie in its entirety.

‘After all, I’m 1 of the 2 lifelines that he has left despite being in a perilous situation. The other lifeline is his best friend who is also the producer of his movie and has also invested in his movie.’

After understanding the whole story, Su Yang was relieved.

He asked Wu Feng to stay for two more days. In these two days, he settled the contract and signed it with Wu Feng.

‘This movie is a rare opportunity for me to pass up on.

‘After all, Jiayuan Pictures has only produced an online movie that isn’t worthy enough for the big-screen. Therefore, this movie would be the key step to advancing from being an internet movie production company to the big-screen.

‘As long as I succeed, Jiayuan Pictures could be considered to be a proper medium-sized company in the entertainment industry.

‘Hence, this is an opportunity for both myself and Jiayuan Pictures.

‘Even though “Fighting The Buddha” had been fine tuned by the post production department in the later stages, it is still merely a product focused on post-production after all. Furthermore, it only required some fanciful special effects for it to work.

For a movie like “Wolf Warriors”, aside from the special effects of the various artilleries, just the wolves alone would be challenging enough. Not only do we need to create props and design the movements of the wolves, we also have to improve their framerate to make the wolves look realistic and lifelike.

‘Wu Feng may be desperate for help, he’s not a fool. If he isn’t satisfied with the special effects I produce for him, then the agreement between both parties will become invalid which would be reflected in the agreement.

Based on my interaction with Wu Feng, I can tell that Wu Feng is someone who’s very serious and passionate towards movies.’

After sending Wu Feng off, Su Yang wondered if he could really create the realistic special effects that Wu Feng wanted with his [Intermediate Film And Television Post Production Ability] alone.

‘Should I add a point to my Bronze Ability?

‘Previously, I’ve obtained 2 Bronze points through the system’s upgrade, but I’ve never gotten round to using them.

‘Now seems like the perfect time to use it on my [Film And Television Post Production Ability].

‘My [Film And Television Post Production Ability] has already reached an intermediate level. I believe that if I upgrade it into an advanced level ability, there will be a qualitative change, just like the [Guitar Playing Ability].

‘I’ve thought about it earlier, I could indeed come up with a decent wolf special effect with my current team and skills. However, I still have a long way to go for the wolf to be able to look realistic and lifelike.

‘Since I’ve invested and even have the rights to this movie, I should take it a little more seriously!

‘There is no better time than the present. I’ll add a point to [Intermediate Film And Television Post Production Ability] today!’

With that thought in mind, Su Yang opened the system and checked the completion list of [Achievement Mission].

[Painting Achievement Mission: Draw 20,000 eggs (Completed)]

[Guitar Singing Achievement Mission: Obtain 100,000 fans (Completed)]

Because Su Yang only wanted to get a Bronze point instead of another random ability, he clicked on the first bronze quest without hesitation.

Suddenly, a notification popped up in front of him.

[Are you sure you want to check the reward?]

[Yes]

A moment later, the system notification sounded beside his ear. [Bronze Mission completed and obtained Bronze Points. You may choose any 1 of the 3 random abilities to add a point on.]

At the end of the notification, an option box appeared before Su Yang. There were three options:

[1.Stop Bleeding With Bare Hands]

[2. Catch Seaweed With Bare Hands]

[3. Classify Trash With Bare Hands]

Su Yang felt his balls ache as he looked at the 3 random Bronze abilities. ‘I can understand [Stop Bleeding With Bare Hands] ability, but what the hell is up with the [Catch Seaweed With Bare Hands] ability?

‘Do I have to catch seaweed? Can’t I just grab it directly?

‘Also... what the hell is up with that [Classify Trash With Bare Hands] ability? Am I really supposed to classify it bare handed?

‘Isn’t that... too disgusting?

‘Although this ability is very useful, especially for the current situation in Shanghai, I would very much rather die than reach out my hands into trash and classify each and every one of it.

‘I think it would be more convenient for me to prepare a few more trash bins and then get them classified there rather than classifying it with my bare hands.

‘At the very least... there’s still Little Monster Beans who could get it done for me.’

Even though there were two random abilities, Su Yang hesitated when he saw the first option.

‘[Stop Bleeding With Bare Hands]... This ability seems to be very useful.

Even though I have Sanque who could heal me with its roots, I will still need to carry out first aid if it comes to external injuries.

‘Also, it will definitely be worthwhile to choose this since I can’t bring out Sanque’s fluid in public most of the time.

‘Then... should I choose this ability first?’

Su Yang felt his balls aching. He had wanted to randomly choose 1 out of the 3 useless abilities and then leave a Bronze point for the [Film And Picture Post Production Ability]. He did not expect that he would get the ability he wanted!

‘D*mn system, are you toying with me?’

As he scolded the system, he chose [Stop Bleeding With Bare Hands]. Su Yang felt that he was really going to become a fortress!

As Su Yang confirmed his choice, the other two options disappeared, and the words [Stop Bleeding WIth Bare Hands] flashed into Su Yang’s mind.

At the same time, Su Yang felt a series of basic knowledge about bleeding control flooding into his mind. For example, where would he need to press in order to stop the bleeding on the wound on his arm, or where needed to press in order to stop the bleeding on a wound in his abdomen. In conclusion, he had received all kinds of techniques to stop bleeding.

As a bonus, Su Yang even gained a lot of knowledge about external injuries.

The knowledge and skills were integrated into his body like an instinct. He was like a medical staff who had years of experience on the field. He was extremely familiar with every step and movement of the bleeding control.

As Su Yang finished absorbing the knowledge, his Bronze ability List slowly gained a new ability, [Stop Bleeding With Bare Hands].

Now that Su Yang had quite a few Bronze abilities, they were arranged in a row on his personal interface, shining with a bronze glow.

[Beginner Guitar Playing Ability (Becomes Advanced upon use of an item)]

[Intermediate Verbal Canon]

[Intermediate Film And Television Post-Production]

[Beginner Tank Driving Ability]

[Beginner Painting Ability]

[Beginner Fighting Ability]

[Basic Stop Bleeding With Bare Hands]

They were all practical and valuable abilities.

After obtaining the new ability, Su Yang wanted to test it out. He scanned the room, but there was no one bleeding.

‘Should I... cut someone and then stop it from bleeding?

‘But who should I cut?’

Su Yang’s gaze wandered around the room before finally landing on Janet.

‘Well... I’m his Master. I don’t suppose he would... beat me up if I were to cut him a little, would he?

I’m literally asking for death right now.’

However, after thinking about it, he did not have a better choice. He waved at Janet. “Janet, come here.”

Janet strode towards Su Yang.

Su Yang took out a small knife from his pocket and picked up Janet’s hand before coughing. “I’m just going to cut it a little bit.”

Janet looked down at him. “Alright.”

Receiving Janet’s affirmation, Su Yang heaved a sigh of relief. Without any hesitation, he cut it.

Instantly, bright red blood flowed out.

Seeing that he had succeeded, Su Yang did not dare to waste any more time. He stretched out his hand, wanting to try out his new ability.
