Chapter 30: The “Ultimate” Web Drama

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
The book number gave Wang Hao all kinds of emotions. Make hay while the sun shines. I have to show off to the other writers right now —

Sunday Wang: “Hahahaha, brothers! My novel is unbelievable!”

Lala Hong: “How incredible? You’ve also started writing? What kind of novel is it? Send us a screenshot!”

The Knight: “Yeah, send us a screenshot!”

Wang Hao sent a screenshot of the title and book number of “Battle Through the Heavens” to the group. The others were totally startled!

Lala Hong: “F*ck! This is an incredible number. You’re going to be rich! This number must be worth a few thousand yuan!”

The Knight: “That’s right! It’s simply incomparable. A book number is just like a license plate, so this is equivalent to having a 16888 plate number!”

Bone Bone: “You must have great fortune! Give me some too!”

Lala Hong: “Bro, I can’t find your novel. You just uploaded it?”

Sunday Wang: “Yes, just uploaded. Haha.”

Lala Hong: “Do tell me when it’s approved. Let me see what a book of good fortune is like! Hehe!”

Sunday Wang: “No problem!”

While Wang Hao was having an exciting discussion with the people in the group, he didn’t hear anything around him. He had no idea that the director was lecturing Lu Tong and Ma Ming. “Look at him. That’s what we call surfing the Internet. Can you see how natural he is? Natural, okay? When you go to an Internet café, do you just sit there and not even touch the keyboard?”

The director was a 45-year-old man named Star Gao. He was a top-ranked director in the industry. Some called him Star Creator. He had brought up a few famous new actors, including the two protagonists of this web drama.

After hearing the director, Lu Tong replied with a note of disapproval, “He’s just using the computer there. Who can’t do that? I want to show people my acting skills…”

“You’re a walk-on actor! Walk-on, you understand?” Director Gao shouted, “You’re a walk-on actor! Know your place! Don’t steal the show! Don’t do that, okay? I saw you moving around just now. Were you having a seizure?”

Huh? A seizure?

Wang Hao was startled, and he looked around. He saw the director admonishing Lu Tong, so he asked, “What’s going on? Who’s having a seizure? You?”

Being looked down on by a fool who graduated from a diploma mill, Lu Tong was enraged. “You’re the one who has a seizure. Your whole family does!”

F*ck, is he picking a fight?!

Wang Hao wanted to reason with Lu Tong, but before he did, the director became upset. “Are you jealous of his good performance? Look at him. He’s been acting very well! And look at you! I’m telling you, behave yourself! If you can’t do well later, you’re out of here, you hear me?”

The director definitely had the most power among the crew members; not only Lu Tong, he could kick even the main characters out.

“O- okay,” Lu Tong answered as he turned red.

When Lu Tong and Ma Ming returned to their seats, the director shouted, “Action!”

The filming had started again. Wang Hao went back into the group and talked to the people there — There’s nothing I need to do anyway. I shouldn’t waste the chance to use the computer for free!

Lu Tong and Ma Ming performed normally this time. Wang Hao took a peek, then refreshed the author management page…

“Hi, your novel has been approved. If the content is outstanding enough, our editors will offer you a contract. Please maintain regular updates. If you need any help, please contact customer service.”

Ahahahaha! Everything’s going so well! It passed the review in such a short time!

Wang Hao was thrilled. As he prepared to promote the novel, the scene truly began!

Well, the promotion can wait. Let’s just enjoy the show for now!

Seeing the lead actor, Wang Hao finally realized how “ultimate” the web dramas in this world were!

The lead actor was in a black outfit! A trench coat! He was wearing sunglasses inside the Internet café! If Wang Hao didn’t know the plot, he would have thought that they were filming “The Matrix”!

The man went into the Internet café, then threw his ID card on the counter and said in a sexy, husky voice, “Give me a computer. One person.”

“Okay, sir. Please wait.” The girl at the counter grabbed his ID card and went to turn on a computer for him. The lead actor then took back the card with two fingers and put it back in his pocket like magic.

Wang Hao knew that filming had officially started. Since he was bored, he decided to start promoting his novel. He first copied the link of his novel, then added a short note — “This is my new novel. Please have a look. If you like it, please bookmark it and recommend it to others” — and sent it to all the groups.

A few notifications from the system popped up right after he sent out the promo messages —

“You’ve been removed from The Spirit Novels Group.”

“You’ve been removed from The Underworld Book Club.”

“You’ve been removed from The Universe Novels Group.”

Someone who claimed to be the group admin said, “Don’t f*cking send rubbish to the group! Get out!”

“You’ve been removed from The God Clan Group.”

Damn, I knew it…

Whatever. How dare you say my novel is rubbish?!

Wang Hao had expected this to happen. He now understood that he couldn’t send out such a message to all the groups at once. He calmed down and memorized the name of the group admin, “Smiling Angel,” then continued watching the scene.

Then, the female protagonist appeared!

The lead actress must be insane! It’s July and she’s wearing sunglasses, a scarf, and a pair of leather boots! A hat too! Wang Hao was shocked. He had no idea what season she was dressed for! Who would wear anything like that? Can’t you just stick to what’s typical?

Wang Hao then realized that compared with her outfit, the next scene was the true drama!
