Chapter 669: “Wandering Planet” Officially Begins


Tang Jing told him that she had called Shasha’s mother. So, when Shasha’s mother heard that the advertis.e.m.e.nt was 10 minutes long, she was dumbfounded and said that she would have to ask her husband first to see if it could work or not, but she especially told Su Yang not to have any high hopes. After all, it was a long video, so it was going to be hard to get it included regardless of what show it was.


Hence, when Tang Jing heard what Shasha’s mother said, she was afraid that Su Yang might hold too much hope, so she quickly called Su Yang to inform him.


Instead, Su Yang only told Tang Jing that he understood the situation.


At night, Su Yang returned home and continued to read at home slowly. That day, he was reading “Robinson Crusoe” which meant that the books he was reading were getting more and more complicated as he began reading all kinds of books. As a result, this allowed him to be able to continuously expand his knowledge.


Su Yang had a feeling that when he was stranded on a deserted island in the future, he would be able to survive alone in the wilderness.


Tang Jing returned home at 7pm, but she was not alone, Shasha’s mother had joined her.


It was evident that Shasha’s mother had put in a lot of effort for Su Yang, her life savior because she ended up travelling all the way there for Su Yang’s sake.


Actually, Su Yang was a little surprised because there were fewer and fewer people in the modern world who knew how to repay favors, especially those who had a certain social status. Instead, they would sometimes feel that it was natural for others to help them.


On top of that, there were even some who were cruel enough to think that since they owed someone too much favours, they might as well kill their benefactor to resolve everything, which is absolutely terrifying.


Therefore, it is not an exaggeration to say that the way of life in society is to be harsh and cruel.


On the other hand, there weren’t many people like Shasha’s mother who would still be grateful to their benefactors despite having repaid their kindness which had happened over half a year ago.


Su Yang quickly sat down on the sofa and poured a gla.s.s of water for Shasha’s mother.


Shasha’s mother waved her hands and said, “It’s alright, Mr. Su. I’ll have to head back right away. I just wanted to talk to you in person.”


Su Yang sat opposite her and said, “Sure, please go ahead.”


Shasha’s mother said, “Well, my husband and I have talked about this and we both feel that it’s a little unrealistic to put this advertis.e.m.e.nt on television.”


Perhaps she was afraid that Su Yang would misunderstand that she and her husband did not put in the effort to help him on this matter, so she added, “You may ask all the major television stations about this. Even if it’s a public service announcement, it can’t be broadcasted for 10 minutes. This isn’t about the money, but the impact it would have.


“Furthermore, even if we use our various connections to have this advertis.e.m.e.nt forcefully advertised, it won’t have any effect if the viewers don’t watch it. So, you’d be ending up wasting your money, wouldn’t you?”


[s.p.a.ce Traversing Eyes] judged it as. [Sincere]


Su Yang nodded. Even without using SilverAbility, Su Yang knew that what Shasha’s mother said made sense.


‘However, Shasha’s mother didn’t come here just to tell me that they can’t get it done now, did they?’


As expected, after Shasha’s mother finished explaining about the issue with the television station, she said, “However, although buying advertis.e.m.e.nts directly won’t work, my husband and I suddenly remembered that Shanghai TV station is collaborating with Shanghai to launch a public service advertis.e.m.e.nt event.”


As she spoke, Shasha’s mother took out a doc.u.ment and pa.s.sed it to Su Yang. “This is the information for the public service announcement.”


Su Yang took the doc.u.ment and flipped through it while listening to Shasha’s mother’s explanation. “This public service advertis.e.m.e.nt is an event in which we have responded to the country’s call to promote positivity. So, we have collected outstanding public service advertis.e.m.e.nts online.


“So, the ones that have pa.s.sed the preliminaries will be broadcasted on a loop on Tencent Media and a special program for our evening slot. The netizens and audience will then vote to choose the final public service advertis.e.m.e.nt which they think is the best.


“Then, the best public service advertis.e.m.e.nt will receive a cash prize of one million yuan and a one-month advertis.e.m.e.nt with Shanghai TV Station and Tencent Media.”


At this point, Shasha’s mother said, “After discussing with my husband, I felt that this might be the most suitable method for you.”


She explained, “Especially since this kind of event is purely meant to be a public service. So, the viewers who are willing to watch this would all come watching with the mentality that they would be watching some public service announcements. Therefore, there won’t be a situation where the audience will skip it after it’s been broadcasted.”


Su Yang thought about it and felt that it was pretty good.


Hence, he took out his gla.s.s phone and opened up the video to show Shasha’s mother.


When Shasha’s mother took the phone, she was shocked for a moment. Then, she looked at Su Yang with sparkling eyes and asked, “Is this a cellphone? Isn’t this just too beautiful?”


Su Yang smiled and said, “That’s right. It’s a cellphone my company manufactured.”


Shasha’s mother exclaimed, “Has this been manufactured locally? Has the manufacturing standards of our country’s cellphone industry reached this level already?”


Su Yang coughed and said, “More or less. Our company has been developing it for a long time and this is the one and only prototype. It’s going to take a few more months before we would be able to ma.s.s produce it.”


Shasha’s mother nodded and did not dare to make any unrealistic requests. After all, she was not a fool to be able to become the producer of Shanghai TV Station. She knew that this phone was definitely groundbreaking. Hence, during its early stages, each and every one of these phones would be extremely expensive, so there was no way Su Yang would be able to give it to her so casually.


Therefore, when she looked at the video on her phone, her attention was drawn to it.


After watching the video, Shasha’s mother raised her head and gave Su Yang a thumbs up. “Mr. Su, this public service advertis.e.m.e.nt is really well done. If it’s alright with you, I’ll make a copy of this today and submit it to the project team tomorrow. I believe that there won’t be any problems for this to pa.s.s the preliminary audit.”


Sure enough, Su Yang agreed to her request.


After that, Shasha’s mother, who had finished copying the video, did not stay for dinner. She said that Shasha was still waiting for her and left the villa with the video.


Looking at Shasha’s mother’s back view, Su Yang felt that there were still many good people in this world.


Less than two days later, Shasha’s mother gave Su Yang a call and told him that his video had made it through the preliminary audit. Plus, all videos that had pa.s.sed the preliminary audit had already been broadcasted on Tencent Media and Shanghai TV station, so Su Yang was free to have a look if he was interested.


After Su Yang heard that, he logged into Tencent Media to take a look. He then realized that this event was being largely promoted through Tencent Media’s desktop version and mobile app. Other than that, there was also a column specifically for the special events.


Su Yang clicked on it and realized that there were quite a number of people watching. ‘Perhaps everyone is tired of watching talent shows that expose someone’s beautiful features and this is the first time they’re seeing such a public service announcement event. So, they’re clicking into this out of curiosity.’


When he clicked on this page, the first video he saw was his own, which he did not know if it was coincidentally placed there by Tencent Media, or if Shasha’s parents had deliberately made arrangements for that to happen.


After browsing through the videos in that section, Su Yang realized that their qualities were not bad, but… They were not outstanding.


In fact, he did not think that the quality of his own video was extremely good, but it was one of the best.


Hence, Su Yang had a rough understanding of the level of compet.i.tion he was facing.


However, he was not aiming for the award, but the exposure.


The next day, Su Yang looked at the number of views on his video, which Tencent had increased by more than one million, while Su Yang’s Platinum Mission only increased by four hundred thousand.


Among the 400,000 new viewers, it also included viewers from Su Yang’s Findme app, the ones being circulated on the internet and Shanghai TV Stations’s viewers.h.i.+p.


From this, it could be seen how measly the views from the internet video platform had.


However, it was still 400,000 viewers a day, so even if that number would continue to drop later on, Su Yang believed that he would be able to complete his Platinum Mission in a month at most, possibly even half a month if it was quicker.


After putting the Platinum Mission aside for the time being, Su Yang continued to place all of his focus in reading his books. After a month of preparation, the production team of “Wandering Planet” had officially started to form. Hence, he needed to prepare more servers.


Since most of the actors in “Wandering Planet” would be filmed against a green screen and then all combined together by the post-production team, the production team prioritized the special effects’ background and physical models.


In order to make it look realistic, Guo Fan requested that most of the scenes be filmed through location shooting. Hence, he submitted a tens of pages long location shooting proposal to Su Yang with the intention of making 10,000 props and 100,000 square meters of location shooting, which a normal investor would be shocked by in the face of such numbers.


But, was Su Yang an ordinary investor?


He was.


But… Not Little Hus.


Little Hus’s potential sniffing gave Su Yang sufficient confidence. So, if Su Yang understood the potential of this movie, he would be willing to spend the money.


Therefore, even though he was a little shocked, he still agreed without hesitation after having Little Deeny and Li Zijun check the proposal to make sure it was alright!”


Guo Fan did not expect Su Yang to trust him so much, so much that he felt as if Su Yang was his muse.


In fact, Guo Fan had even stopped being involved with “The Girl At The Neighbouring Desk” and left it all for the main character to handle, placing all of his focus on “Wandering Planet” instead.


As the money was transferred from Su Yang’s account. pieces of props and models were created. Money makes the world go round, so everything will proceed faster as long as there’s money involved.


Since Su Yang did not care about money at all, the progress of the cast and crew of “Wandering Planet” improved by leaps and bounds.


Guo Fan’s heart was completely focused on the production of “Wandering Planet” and he was working so hard that he forgot to sleep and eat.


When a scenario was created, he would first film it after experimenting a few times. Then, he would research the special effects plan with the special effects team and create a virtual demo. After everyone was satisfied with it, they would decide on the plan.


At the same time, Su Yang was reading his book without eating or sleeping. He was trying his best to acc.u.mulate more servers so that he could keep up with the progress of the production team.


Just when everything was going well, something happened to Su Yang’s film company… And Su Yang was somehow related to why the issue happened…


Ever since Su Yang obtained this virtual special effects production server and knew how amazing it was, he had decided to change the roles of his employees. He wanted them to change from a complete special effects production department to only be working on the pre-production works such as preparing the props, designing the special effects and how it was going to be filmed.


As a result, his employees were stripped off the rights of being able to work on the most important aspect of the special effects, which caused everyone in the company to cause an uproar…
