Su Yang was stunned. “What? The main lead?”

Wu Feng said, “That’s right! The main lead!”

Following that, Wu Feng explained the character’s persona was all smiles while doing so.

Su Yang stopped taping the Coca Cola bottle and listened quietly.

‘Based on what Wu Feng has said, this role is practically made for me, It matches my personality and identity very well. Furthermore, I will have a lot of scenes, almost equivalent to a second male lead.’

As for Su Yang’s own acting skills… Su Yang wasn’t worried at all. He might not know how to act now, but he knew how to increase his acting skills. ‘Wouldn’t I be fine if I increase my acting skills?

‘According to what Wu Feng has said, I wouldn’t be needing a lot of acting skills since this character is so compatible with me. In that case, I should be fine with [Beginner Acting Ability].

‘Then, the only question left is whether “Wolf Warriors” will have another sequel and would the sequel have any value.

‘However, without a shadow of a doubt, it’s definitely valuable!!

‘I’ve already used Little Hus’s nose to sniff out this project and both of these movies will be profitable. Moreover, “Wolf Warriors 2” will have a box office of at least 500 million yuan!

‘Acting as the second male lead in a movie that’s worth 500 million seems like… A good experience!’

At that thought, Su Yang did not hesitate anymore. “Alright, Brother Wu. I’ll accept the role. But… will I be paid for taking on this role?”

Wu Feng laughed when he heard that. “Yes, don’t worry, of course you will. I’ll pay you according to the salary of a second male lead within the industry. Of course, you’re a newcomer, so the pay won’t be particularly high.”

When Su Yang heard that. ‘As low as it might be, there should be at least a few hundred thousand yuan. I think?

‘Hundreds of thousands of yuan! I can afford ten houses in my village!

‘That’s no problem for sure!

‘I’ve invested in so many projects, but this is the first time I’ve seen a remuneration other than the return on investments for the projects. Why would I still need a bicycle!’

Therefore, he said directly, “Sure, no problem.”

After the two of them came to an agreement, Wu Feng gave him a heads-up. “Mr. Su, I’ll have to tell you this in advance. I’ll give you the script so that you’ll be able to practice. Before the filming of the sequel commences, I’ll be watching your performance in advance. If you don’t pass, I’ll have to replace you with someone else.”

Su Yang did not mind at all. “Sure, don’t worry, it won’t be a problem.”

After the two finished their conversation, Wu Feng just had to ask, “By the way, I’ve been hearing some banging noises from your end. What are you doing?”

Su Yang replied, “Oh, I’m doing a sofa.”

Wu Feng was dumbfounded.

‘Doing a sofa?

‘What does he mean?’

Perhaps sensing Wu Feng’s misunderstanding, Su Yang explained, “I’m making a sofa out of empty Coca Cola bottles.”

Wu Feng was speechless.

‘I see, so he meant that he was “making” a sofa.’

‘So, are the lives of the wealthy so boring and… Weird?’

While Wu Feng still could not understand why Su Yang was making a sofa, he chatted with Su Yang for a while longer and hung up after asking Su Yang to meet him at the hospital with Lu Jian, the line producer after 1 hour.

After hanging up, Wu Feng saw the nurse glaring at him fiercely and quickly smiled.

The nurse harrumphed coldly. “You’ve just gotten your stitches done, but you’re already endlessly busy with phone calls. Do you not know what the word rest means?” Then, she turned around and left.

Lying on the bed, Wu Feng felt a dull pain on his neck as he thought about the role Su Yang was going to play.

‘While I was on the phone earlier, I blurted out everything that I thought of in the heat of the moment.

‘Now that I think about it, I really didn’t seem like I was repaying his kindness…

‘Now that I’m injured, “Wolf Warriors” might very well meet with some setbacks or even be delayed.

‘Moreover, no one knows whether the box office of “Wolf Warriors” will even be enough to break even. On that note, I don’t even know if there will be a sequel.

‘Therefore, how am I any different from a fraud when I’ve already awarded a character for a sequel that may not even happen?’

At the thought of that, he recalled how Su Yang had agreed to it without any hesitation earlier on. Wu Feng could not help but feel touched by Su Yang’s trust in him and his high opinion of “Wolf Warriors”…

‘Perhaps this is what it means to have met a person who understands me.

‘I must never forget to repay Su Yang’s trust and help in the future…’

At that moment, Su Yang had no idea what Wu Feng was thinking. He had already taped all the bottles together according to the steps of creating the video and… made a sofa.

Su Yang looked at the green tick on the system interface. Satisfied, he cut the cloth and laid it on top.

As the last green tick lit up, the system finally sent a notification. [Item production completed. Please submit the recipe item.]

Looking at the Coca Cola bottles that were taped up by him, Su Yang looked at the system interface in front of him and clicked the [Submit] button.

3 notifications popped up in front of him/

[Incomplete Materials detected]

[More precious materials detected.]

[The special item will give birth to additional abilities, talent, or more unknown changes. Confirm to submit?]

Su Yang, who was used to these notifications, clicked [Confirm] without hesitation.

Immediately, the sofa that had been taped together vanished into thin air. Along with it was the pair of scissors that the system had dropped earlier.

When everything disappeared, a soft sofa that could only fit one person appeared in the air. Then, it fell to the ground…

Su Yang looked at the sofa and realized that it was really small and cheap.

The sofa was greenish brown and looked like it was made of fabric.

Based on Su Yang’s estimation, the sofa was less than a meter wide, just enough to fit one person. If it were to be placed for sale on Taobao, it would probably only be worth 200 to 300 yuan.

”If I calculate all of my costs, this sofa doesn’t even equal the total price I paid for the 20 boxes of Coca Colas!

‘Stingy system!’

Because the system interface notification had not been issued, Su Yang could only wait patiently. Thankfully, it was still early for his appointment with Wu Feng, so he had time.

He summoned the virtual interface and went online to read the news. After a while, he suddenly remembered that he had not paid attention to the box office of “Fighting The Buddha” for a long time.

He opened iQIYI’s backstage server and was shocked when he saw the box office for “Fighting The Buddha” was 40,960,000 yuan!

‘The box office has gone past 40 million yuan?!

‘Wouldn’t this be the first movie to hit over 40 million yuan at the box office this year?’

Su Yang looked at the box office ranking list for that year and found that the movie that was ranked second at that moment only had 21.87 million yuan.

‘In other words, my movie has surpassed second place by almost double?

‘I’m awesome indeed!’

Su Yang took a look at the box office champion in the country for the past few years. The first place was “The Ferryman”, which had 42.41 million yuan.

‘I’m only 1 million yuan behind them.’

Su Yang looked at the box office earnings of his movie. ‘Hmm… there’s only 60,000 yuan left every day.

‘Fine, go ahead and progress slowly. After another 20 days, we should probably surpass them.

‘Anyway, it shouldn’t be a big problem to become the country’s overall box office champion…

‘Furthermore… with the current situation, it’s very likely that iQIYI will give my movie another push to break the box office record.

‘After all, it would be an honor for them as well.

‘The overall box office performance of iQIYI has been a little weak this year, so they need this to boost the confidence of the other companies that are following them.

‘I’ll ask Li Zijun to have a chat with them when the time comes.’

After deciding on his plan, Su Yang read the news online to kill time. Soon, a notification popped up in front of him.

[Sofa+1: Obtained special ability.]

‘There are no other changes this time.

‘It seems like whether it is additional talent, ability, or [Life Transfer], they all have their own percentages and they won’t necessarily appear in a new item every time.’

Su Yang clicked on the special ability of the sofa.

Immediately, an introduction of the sofa’s special ability popped up in front of him.

[Entrepreneur’s Sofa Of Everlasting Victory]

Ability: This is a sofa that an entrepreneur has painstakingly researched for 500 years. Anyone who sits on this sofa will become your customer and has to purchase items from you.

Limit 1: As an entrepreneur, you don’t have your own products, so this sofa can only sell [Anxiety] and [Happiness].

Restriction 2: As an entrepreneur, even though you don’t have any products, you still have to serve your customers well, so you have to massage them every time you make a deal.

Additional effect: You will automatically receive [Beginner’s Massage Ability] after a deal has been made.

Note: The entrepreneur who researched this sofa was later starved to death because he forgot that all entreprener’s customers are dealing online…

Su Yang was speechless for a long time after reading the description of the ability, that was because the ability was filled with points that were worth swearing upon!

‘An entrepreneur who has lived for 500 years? You call that an entrepreneur? That’s more like an old monster already…

‘Furthermore, I haven’t got any product to sell, so I can only sell emotions… If that isn’t sarcasm, what is?

‘Also, a massage after making a deal? That… doesn’t doesn’t sound logical… Is this even a legitimate business?’

Even though this special item had a lot of flaws, it was the second special item that Su Yang had seen that had a Bronze Ability built into it.

The first being the [Guitar Master’s Second-hand Guitar].

Those who had its own Bronze Ability were all treasures to him.

Su Yang moved the sofa back to the living room, but he did not have time to experience it. He looked at the time and realized that it was time to visit Wu Feng.

Leaving the virtual space, Su Yang exited the hotel, hailed a cab, and headed straight to the hospital.

When he arrived at the hospital, Su Yang gave the line producer, Lu Jian a call, only to find that Lu Jian had already arrived.

After asking for Wu Feng’s ward number, Su Yang went straight to the ward.

Wu Feng was staying in a single-person ward. When Su Yang arrived at the door, he was already sitting up and leaning against the bed. He was chatting with Lu Jian, who was beside the bed.

Su Yang knocked on the door and entered. He asked, “Brother Wu, are you feeling better? What are you guys talking about?”

Wu Feng turned to look at the door and said with a smile. “I feel much better now, all thanks to you.”

Speaking of the topic of conversation, he said seriously, “Brother Lu and I were talking about the filming plan. The approval process at the military base is very slow and they wouldn’t allow for a delay because of us. Therefore, we can only stay in the park for one and a half months at most before we’re forced to leave.”

“If we can’t finish filming the movie in the forest within one and a half months, we’ll be in big trouble because we won’t be able to find another location that is so suitable.”

“The filming schedule has already been very tight, plus now I’m injured. What a tragic coincidence…”
