Chapter 154 The computer was attacked
With "Those Years, Those Rabbits, Those Things" successfully overtaking the Japanese manga "Ama-no-Kumara".
The online discussion continued, with many netizens becoming "praise warriors" and showering their compliments with compliments:
"I'm sorry, I apologize for my previous remarks! You rabbits, you're all great!"
"Who said this is a Flash animation? This is history etched into our bones! It's a legacy in our blood!"
"As a grown man in my thirties, when I saw the rabbits shouting 'Dear' in the snow, tears just streamed down my face. I couldn't hold back my emotions!"
"Chasing Dreams with a Pure Heart. Holy crap, this song is so good, it's giving me goosebumps!"
If when the anime first came out, patriotic viewers were simply full of confidence in it, now that the data has completely overwhelmed and surpassed it, it has turned into a complete celebration for them.
On Weibo, Bilibili, and various forums, almost any topic related to "That Rabbit" can easily go viral.
The previous sarcastic, questioning, and mocking comments were drowned out by a tsunami of praise and emotion.
Hashtags such as #WeWereAllThatRabbit#, #StrivingForTheRiseOfChina#, and #ThatYearThatRabbitThoseStoriesReachTopTheCharts# have once again gone viral on social media.
This has unknowingly attracted many casual viewers who didn't previously pay attention to anime.
Subsequently, viewers who watched it spontaneously became fans of "That Rabbit," enthusiastically recommending this seemingly simple animation, which contained immense power, to everyone around them.
The Xingyao Animation Department's work group was already a sea of jubilation.
"President Lu is awesome!!"
"We...we did it?"
"Waaaaah, I'm going to call my mom right now! My animation is trending number one!"
"Let's see who dares to say Dragon Comics is no good now."
Watching the excited employees venting their frustrations in the group chat, Lu Ran smiled but didn't reply. Instead, he sent a 10 yuan red envelope in the group.
After a brief silence of a few seconds, the screen below was flooded with comments.
"Long live President Lu!"
"Long live President Lu!"
"Long live President Lu!"
"Long live President Lu!"
...
Lu Ran smiled but didn't reply.
He knew that if he spoke up in the group chat at this moment, his employees would inevitably turn around and start praising him.
But that would be a bit of a downer, so Lu Ran decided to let them have their own fun and not get involved.
After all, they had worked overtime for a long time to finish it, so as the boss, he didn't want to get involved in the excitement.
Of course, the most important thing was that his phone rang at that moment, and it was his wife's phone. The phone call was the most important thing.
As soon as the call connected, Shen Yuege's excited voice came from the other end.
"Boss Lu, you're trending again. Congratulations!"
"Congratulations to you too," Lu Ran replied succinctly.
"I'm not happy, I'm shocked." Shen Yuege chuckled on the other end of the line, with the faint sounds of people coming and going in the background. "Thanks to you, our studio has signed more than a dozen artists in the past two days."
"That's definitely a good thing. What? Are you all after the characters in 'The Return of the Condor Heroes'?" Lu Ran asked knowingly.
"That's definitely the main reason, but some artists also saw the strength of our studio through this casting opportunity." Shen Yuege's tone carried a hint of pride. "Many newcomers and some artists who were sidelined by their old companies feel that they have a brighter future with our studio."
"Furthermore, ever since the news broke that we had part of the casting rights for 'The Return of the Condor Heroes,' our studio has been overwhelmed with visitors, like a bustling market. I feel like every actor in the entire vertical theater chain has come to visit."
This was something Lu Ran hadn't expected.
He knew the power of the "The Return of the Condor Heroes" IP, but underestimated its appeal to the actors.
A good role can save an actor ten years of hard work.
"This is a sweet problem for you."
"Come on, I'm so annoyed. Although a lot of people have come, most of them aren't actually satisfied. They all think they're the chosen ones, and they're all so effeminate, where's the chivalry in them?" Shen Yuege complained, then changed the subject, "Are you free tomorrow? Come over and help me take a look. You have a good eye, and the script is yours anyway, so it's more appropriate for you to choose."
"it is good."
Lu Ran readily agreed.
The next day, Lu Ran appeared at Shen Yuege's studio.
As she said, the place can no longer be described as lively; it's absolutely packed with people.
The corridors, meeting rooms, and even the stairwells were packed with artists who came to audition.
They were either nervously memorizing their lines or huddled together in twos and threes, whispering among themselves, each radiating a thirst for opportunity.
Shen Yuege's assistant led Lu Ran to a private lounge and handed him a cup of hot tea.
"Mr. Shen is still talking to a director. Mr. Lu, please wait a moment."
Lu Ran nodded, not paying any attention.
He looked through the one-way glass at the young faces in the waiting area outside.
Ambition, anxiety, anticipation, pretense... all these emotions intertwine to create a vivid portrait of the entertainment industry.
Thanks to the drama "The Return of the Condor Heroes", Shen Yuege's studio has completed the initial accumulation of capital and the initial expansion of its network, and has officially entered the fast lane.
Not long after, Shen Yuege pushed open the door and entered, her face showing a hint of apology.
"Sorry to keep you waiting."
"It's alright, it's a good opportunity to see the different aspects of life." Lu Ran pointed outside.
Shen Yuege glanced in the direction he was looking, then shook her head helplessly. "Let's go see our future heroes."
In the audition room, Lu Ran simply sat quietly next to Shen Yuege, without saying a word.
But after watching each actor's performance, he would make a few marks on his tablet.
After an afternoon, Shen Yuege felt that she was getting tired of her own aesthetic sense.
"So? Did you find anything you like?" she leaned closer and asked in a low voice.
Lu Ran handed her the tablet.
There are only three names listed, each followed by a short comment.
"This one has the image, but he's too contrived and can't portray the villainy of Yang Guo."
"This one has some talent, but unfortunately, his mind is not at peace and his eyes are wandering."
"As for this..." Lu Ran pointed to the third name, "We can let him play Zhen Zhibing."
Shen Yuege: "..."
He's so damn good at playing Zhen Zhibing!
……
That evening, Lu Ran returned to his apartment.
The casting process took a whole day, leaving him feeling physically and mentally exhausted.
Lu Ran turned on his computer, intending to take a shower and watch a movie to relax.
Just then, an inconspicuous pop-up window appeared in the PC Manager.
Your firewall successfully blocked ten high-intensity network intrusions at 18:37:21.
It was just an ordinary system notification.
The current network environment is complex, with various viruses and Trojans emerging one after another. It is normal for firewalls to block them 8 or 10 times a day.
Lu Ran didn't pay much attention at first and was about to click away casually.
But just as he was about to press the mouse button, he stopped.
High strength!
Was this done intentionally?
