Chapter 269: Chapter 269: Big Star Lan Zihuang
“It’s like this,” Zeng Wenhui hurriedly introduced their relationship to Wang Hao, “Luo is a good friend of mine who is now working as a music editor on a drama crew. Little brother, you know how important a theme song is for a TV series. It just so happens that the show Luo is working on still lacks a theme song, so he came to me for help. I thought for sure you’d be perfect for the job, so I brought him over! Actually, he did already reach out to you, but you’ve been busy, and we ended up dragging this until now.”
“Ah, I see, hello, hello,” Wang Hao finally understood and laughed, “What’s the big deal, I thought? Which drama needs a theme song?”
“I’ll explain,” Luo Shiyuan sat down, took a deep breath, and sighed, “When I heard the song Jiang Feng sang, it honestly sounded so good. Our crew is shooting a martial arts drama and just happens to lack a theme song. Teacher Wang Hao, you also have this experience, so I thought about asking for your help. You’ve been rather busy these days, so this matter has dragged on until now. Actually, if it were just a theme song, it would still be manageable, but the troubling thing is, it’s now more than just the theme song problem…”
Eh? It’s not a problem with the theme song? Then what is it?
“What’s really going on?” Wang Hao asked curiously, “What’s bothering you so much?”
“No choice,” Luo Shiyuan replied bitterly, “Our crew has hired a big star, named Lan Zihuang. She’s very popular, although not as much as Miss Ice Princess, but still has a very high status among female actors.”
Wang Hao asked, “Then what?”
“Well…” Luo Shiyuan, feeling helpless, shook his head, “Then she filmed half of the movie, complained that the script was too boring, and absolutely refused to resume work! She’s now constantly staying in a five-star hotel, and our crew has to keep her well fed and happy. Our scriptwriters have tried numerous solutions, changing the script no less than ten times, but she’s still not satisfied. I was thinking of asking Teacher Wang Hao, since your programs on script and music are very popular, I felt you could definitely help us solve this trouble!”
“This star is such a diva?” Wang Hao listened, dumbstruck—complaints about the script stopping work! Needing to stay in a five-star hotel every day, and the crew still has to cater to her… That’s incredible?!

“Yes,” Luo Shiyuan sighed deeply, “Speaking of which, she has a lot of fans who are very loyal. For the sake of ratings, this project alone cost us thirty million to hire her, but now she complains about the script and won’t work. There’s really nothing we can do.”
Dealing with a diva starlet sure isn’t easy, but after all, considering Zeng Wenhui’s face, let’s go take a look.
Wang Hao nodded and said, “Alright, then I’ll go take a look tomorrow. By the way, where is your crew filming? Is it far?”
“Really?!” Hearing that Wang Hao actually agreed, Luo Shiyuan was overjoyed, “Not far, not far at all! It’s in Henglong Film and Television City in Jinhua, just about an hour and a half drive from Zhonghang City, less than two hundred kilometers in total.”
That’s indeed not far.
“Alright, then it’s settled,” Wang Hao laughed, “I’ll go take a look tomorrow and find out what this diva starlet is like.” Hum, trying to act high and mighty? No one could be a bigger diva than our Ice Princess!
…
After Zeng Wenhui and Luo Shiyuan left, Wang Hao took out his phone, and took a long sigh of relief, “Ah, finally, it’s the end of the month. It’s about time for Break the Heavens to be launched!”
Today was already the last day of the month, and by midnight, it would be time for Break the Heavens to go live.
Sure enough, as soon as he logged into QQ, he saw the launch notification message from the editor, Wen Song—
Wen Song: “Are you there? It goes live at midnight today, do you still have manuscripts?”
A manuscript was definitely needed; without one, what’s the point of mixing…
Wang Ritian: “Yes, of course! Editor-in-chief, how many chapters should I release when it first goes live?” After all, since this was his first book going live, it was better to ask.
Wen Song: “It’s good you have manuscripts. When launching, see how it goes, but I suggest four to six chapters, then explode again the next day, and then update steadily after that. After all, web literature depends on stability, if you use up all your manuscripts in one go and something comes up like a headache or family issue without manuscripts, it’d be trouble.”
Wang Ritian: “Alright, no problem, I’m getting ready then!”
Wen Song: “Okay, wish you big success! Hehe!”
Closing the editor’s chat window, Wang Hao soon saw messages from Long Yi and the others—
Long Yi: “Brother Hao, congratulations on the launch, all the members of the Alliance are ready! Just waiting for midnight!”
Qiangwei: “Brother Hao, good luck! Your book will definitely be a hit! Make them see!”
Divine Envoy: “Dou Dou, I’ve pulled in a few more rich fans, said the book looks great, ready to serve when it launches!”
…
Near Henglong Film and Television City, Room 5888, five-star Kaiyue Hotel, Jinhua.
Lan Zihuang was lying on the bed, sighing deeply and feeling quite troubled.
During this period, she was really conflicted.
When the martial arts drama had first started, the plot seemed okay, but as filming continued, it became increasingly boring. By the latter part, she couldn’t even understand what the scriptwriters were thinking!
The story was a mess and could really drive a person insane!
She was a popular female star herself with over thirty million followers on Weibo. She had accepted this film after seeing the initial script, which wasn’t bad. But could anyone watch the latter part?! Such a trashy movie would only deplete her popularity and serve no other purpose!
“A bunch of losers!” Lan Zihuang cursed in frustration, “The garbage they write can’t even be filmed, yet they say I’m acting like a diva, hmph!” She ranted for a while, but since the contract was already signed, there was no way out, she just had to stay put.
“Forget it, I won’t bother with those losers anymore,” Lan Zihuang grabbed her phone, opened the QQ group, which made her feel a bit better, “The stuff these scriptwriters come up with can’t even compare to Break the Heavens!”
Upon entering the VIP group for ‘Break the Heavens’, Lan Zihuang immediately sent a message—
Purple Phoenix: “Today is the day ‘Break the Heavens’ goes live, it’s a monthly ticket battle, everyone do your best!”
Long Yi: “Oh, our Alliance Hierarch Phoenix is here? Today’s the day ‘Break the Heavens’ is released, are you ready?”
Purple Phoenix: “Do you even need to ask? Of course, I’m going full Alliance Hierarch, I’ve prepared a million alliances!”
Qiangwei: “Sister Phoenix has prepared a million alliances! Amazing!”
Jiu Miao: “Kneeling down to the rich and beautiful sister!”
Divine Envoy: “I only managed to prepare one Alliance Hierarch, guess I’ll go draw circles in the corner…”
Blood Donor: “I can only offer one Sect Leader, it hurts…”
Spoken in Pig Latin: “Same here…”
Ren Xing: “Let’s see whose million alliance comes out faster.”
Purple Phoenix: “You dare compete with me! Hmph, make it ten million then!”
Ren Xing: “…”
Everyone: “Ten million alliances! Kneeling down to Sister Bai Jin!”
Purple Phoenix: “Rise, my beloved concubines!”
Everyone was laughing and chatting when suddenly, Divine Envoy shouted, “Holy shit, the guys at Dragon Mountain have started a betting pool!”
Group members: “Where? Where? Definitely going to check it out!”
Dragon Mountain Forum—
“‘Break the Heavens’ launches at midnight today, betting starts now!”
“‘Break the Heavens’ currently has 160,000 favorites, how many first orders do you think it will get? I’d say at least eight thousand!”
“I think it can break ten thousand!”
“I’m not going to sleep tonight, I’ll keep reporting the latest subscription details!”
“This is the rhythm of Supreme God making its debut! Damn, 160,000 favorites on launch!”
Lan Zihuang, lying in bed playing with her phone, was immediately furious when they said ‘Break the Heavens’ first orders would be just eight thousand!
Purple Phoenix: “Such a good book only getting eight thousand first orders, are you all blind? At least twenty thousand!”
One Day is One Day: “Eight thousand is already a lot! In the history of Fenyun Chinese Network, only ‘Supreme God: Ask Dao’ had nine thousand first orders on its launch day! We’re already being generous saying eight thousand.”
Purple Phoenix: “Can ‘Ask Dao’ that trash book even compare with ‘Break the Heavens’?!”
Died in Comfort: “Big sis, since you support ‘Break the Heavens’ so much, how much are you planning to donate on its launch?”
Purple Phoenix: “Ten million alliances are already prepared, ‘Break the Heavens’ must be first in monthly tickets!”
Everyone: “Holy crap! For real?!””Anyone can brag, I’ll go with a billion alliances!””Exactly, coming here to boast, haha!”
Lan Zihuang, lying on her bed, was immensely angry, “These despicable people dare to underestimate me!”
————————————
These past two days have been terrifying, in just 24 hours subscriptions dropped by a thousand! It was a cliff-like drop! I thought it was because the plot had collapsed, and I didn’t even dare to continue writing, I just took a day off! I asked many authors yesterday, and then figured out it seemed to be a problem with the free coins.
Simply put, subscriptions with free coins, you can’t see them in the backend, fortunately, I asked, otherwise I wouldn’t dare continue writing.
So I have a request for all my readers, if there are any free coin promotions in the future please let me know in the book reviews, so I won’t think it’s because the plot has collapsed again…
Crying out, I need recommendations for comfort!
