Chapter 93 Shock
In the outdoor cinema, Zhou Yu had asked his employees to decorated a little. With the flowers, banners and a table of snacks, it looked like a formal meeting hall. However, it was just to show a movie to children. Zhou Fu didn’t understand why he needed to spend money on arranging the area. In the end, he could only attribute this to the strange hobbies of the little boss.
Zhou Shuyu did not expect that the place would be so formally decorated. What made her speechless was that all the children who participated in the test screening, all dressed in formal clothes.
Nowadays, there were all kinds of strange activities in primary school. Almost every kid had several suits at home. Earlier this evening, brother Yu had specifically told them that they should dress more formally. So every kid showed up with a suit like a dance party.
Zhou Shuyu couldn’t stand it anymore, because she, who dressed casually, did not match the scene, at all. She was like a person who was ready to have a barbecue with friends in their backyard, but was inexplicably dragged into a five-star restaurant. It was so embarrassing!
“Damn you, Zhou Yu, did you deliberately want to embarrass me?”
Seeing Zhou Yu showed up, Zhou Shuyu grabbed his collar and hissed. She was almost about to explode with embarrassment. However, Zhou Yu also dressed casually. With the adults dressed casually, but the kids dressed formally, the whole place looked very strange.
“Careful... Your image... The camera is over there... Otherwise, your behaviour will be filmed in a documentary.”
Being threatened by Zhou Yu, who was still smiling at her, Zhou Shuyu had no choice but let him go and planned to seek revenge after this evening.
Zhou Shuyu was one of the photographers on the scene. She also found it very interesting to have a group of children attending the test screening. Before the movie started, she began to record and interview some of the children on the spot with a camera.
Before the movie began, Zhou Shuyu turned off the camera and ridiculed Zhou Yu, “I mean, the test screening looks so formal, what if the movie is terrible, are you not worried that they will boo it? Will you not be embarrassed by it? You will need to thank me later for not filming the following scenes.”
“How many times have I said that it was not me who made the movie, but a group of my friends gathered together to make it for fun. I just shot a few real-world scenes, it is not like you don’t know. As for whether the movie is good or not, you will know after watching it. If a great director like you think that it’s okay, please help my friends to promote it.”
Zhou Yu had always been modest. But the movie shooting some time ago, Zhou Shuyu had also seen it with her own eyes. She indeed did not feel like the movie would be a big blockbuster movie. Instead, it felt more like he was making a low budget movie. The only thing that impressed her was how he burned those ship models.
However, after the movie started, and with just a few seconds into the movie, Zhou Shuyu was so shocked that she began to doubt her life.
‘This is the domestic animated movie?’
Perfect CG, grand world setting, elegant symphonic BGM, and all kinds of humorous moments, if it weren’t for the fact that the characters in the movie were speaking Chinese, anyone would think that this was another classic money-grabbing masterpiece from Hollywood.
The children weren’t that surprised. They just felt that the movie was better than before. However, Zhou Shuyu’s mouth was gasped in shock, and she looked at Zhou Yu several times with a puzzled expression of ‘where is this and who am I?’
‘Oh my God, is that what he means by the ordinary movie made by some ordinary Otaku friends? He is way too modest! This is clearly a movie blockbuster from Hollywood.’
Zhou Shuyu’s brain was almost short-circuited. Originally, she thought it was just a low-budget movie, that was used to deceive children. Just like the “myth of Luhua Village” she and He Yuanyuan filmed last year, there would be at most a few good CG clips. However, the CG what she thought was good, was from a tier-two game, it was not comparable to a tier-three animation movie, not to mention a legitimate commercial movie that was produced by the professionals from Beidou company.
Such a huge contrast made Zhou Shuyu can’t speak a single word. She kept staring at the screen as if she had entered an incredible world. Until the end of the film, when the closing credit appeared, Zhou Shuyu slowly came back from the shock.
The hateful Zhou Yu was still saying, “What do you think? Do you like it? You promised, that you will help me to promote this work, such a movie should not be buried in a village.”
‘Even if you want to bury it, how on earth are you going to bury this?’ with just the one minute or two minutes clip of this kind of movie, was enough to shock all the animators all over the country. Therefore, Zhou Shuyu thought that Zhou Yu was just joking about the promotion.
‘Is he joking? I am just a college girl who has no professional contacts. How am I going to promote such a big work? It should be the other way around. I should be the one that needs to beg for some exposure in the movie. With this kind of movie, a large number of film and television companies would beg for the distribution right.’
“Brother Yu, stop pulling my leg. I regret a lot that I only focused on taking the behind-the-scenes clips and didn’t take part in shooting the real one. Even if it’s just the role of a temporary director’s assistant. With this qualification, it will be much easier for me to find a job in the future.”
Zhou Shuyu said this because she saw the name of Zhou Yu appeared in the closing credit, and the position was Executive Cinematographer. This made her green with envy. After all, it had an extraordinary significance to be able to be listed in the closing credit of such a high-quality movie.
As her voice just dropped, Zhou Shuyu was surprised to discover that, her name also appeared on the list. Although It’s a bit near the end, it still appeared.
Zhou Shuyu felt extremely excited at the thought that the film with her own name would be shown in cinemas all around the country.
However, Zhou Yu did not think that far.
“You’re going back to your uni soon, so help me to upload this movie online. Last time I uploaded a different movie once, but then someone reported my account, and now my account is still banned from the site.”
‘Release it for free?!’ Zhou Shuyu was shocked again.
Tonight was definitely an incredible night. Zhou Shuyu almost felt like she was in a ridiculous dream. At first, a group of unknown Internet Otakus made a world’s top-quality animated movie. Then, the damn Otaku used a relaxed tone, saying that the movie was very good, and he should share it with other people for free!
Zhou Shuyu’s mood at the moment was that she really wanted to use a huge steel pitchfork to stab this damn rich Otaku to death. He clearly didn’t know other people’s pain. So many animators could only make “Teletubbies” to make money in their lives. But he wanted to release the animated movie he made for free? Not to mention that it was as awesome as the final fantasy movie.
Even if he wanted to make fun of the domestic animation industry, he shouldn’t do something like this.
Although the cost of a group of Otakus making a movie could be reduced to the minimum, the finished product was so excellent, that they should at least, consider getting some money back, right? Hardcore Otakus also needed money to survive, not to mention that they often needed to buy those anime figures.
‘Don’t tell me that all of them are Saints, who only want to bring good things to the world without seeking any form of payment...’
Zhou Shuyu felt that it was necessary to convert brother Yu’s erroneous ideas and put Fruit Pirates on the right path.
