Chapter 137

Zhao Jinmai's pretty face instantly puffed up like a frog.

She was annoyed with Wang Shengdi for another important reason, which was that Xu Feng also didn't allow her to be too intimate with him.

After all, being intimate with Wang Shengdi can be explained as raising her like a daughter if seen by others.

Being with Zhao Jinmai, who is in puberty... that would only be seen as being a pervert.

Therefore, Xu Feng avoided any intimate actions with Zhao Jinmai as much as possible.

Soon, Xu Feng arrived at the conference room, sat down, and said to the representatives sent by domestic video streaming platforms like Tencent, iQIYI, and Youku:

"Sorry to trouble you all to make a special trip; now let's discuss the broadcast copyright fees for the second season of 'Bleach'."

A week later, an interview program in the Tencent Video live streaming room.

"Let's welcome this episode's guests, 'Bleach' lead actor Xu Feng, Liu Yifei..."

When they saw Xu Feng sitting in the main seat and Liu Yifei next to him on the screen, the live streaming room's server almost crashed.

Yes, Pony Ma spent a fortune, taking the premiere rights for "Bleach: Arrancar Arc" for 1.5 billion RMB.

That's right, it's premiere rights, not exclusive broadcast rights.

Possessing the right to update the latest episodes of the "Arrancar Arc" two days earlier than other websites.

I don't know if Pony Ma felt that just taking the premiere rights didn't fit his persona of "having money really allows you to do whatever you want."

Afterward, he gave Xu Feng an eight-figure fee to have him appear on an interview program that was less than ten minutes long.

Even more flamboyant was bringing Liu Yifei along.

Sigh, no.

Has Pony Ma already seen the finished film?

Why find a bit part who goes offline in one episode?

If you were going to find someone, you should have found Da Mimi or Zhao Jinmai, who have female lead-level scenes.

At the very least, it should have been Megan...

Alright, Xu Feng himself knew in his heart.

Pony Ma was also using the Fairy Sister's popularity.

After all, many "Bleach" fans were looking forward to the re-collaboration between Brother Xiaoyao and Sister Linger.

In the interview, Xu Feng recounted some interesting things during the filming process and his feelings about collaborating with Hollywood superstars like Bale.

As for Liu Yifei... just sit there honestly as a vase.

Acting as a character who goes offline in one episode.

What big news could you expect her to break?

Finally, facing the camera, Xu Feng stated that the second season of "Bleach," the "Arrancar Arc," would start during the May Day holiday, with two episodes updated every Saturday, and hoped that the audience would support it.

And in the live streaming room, the barrage was already covering the screen completely.

【It's here, it's here, it's here! The man with the highest prestige in domestic dramas has finally returned!】

【Tremble! Film and television circle!】

【Hahaha! Those TV dramas planning to be released during the May Day holiday must be scared to death, right?】

【I just checked, there's also a drama co-starring Lu Han and Guan Gege, called "Sweet Combat," also planning to be released during the May Day holiday.】

【Holy crap, won't that be tortured to death?】

【To step over an ant without crushing it, it's very hard to control the force.】

【Lines carved into DNA...】

【May Day is still more than a week away, I can't wait for even a day!】

A week later, May Day arrived.

That afternoon, when the head teacher finished assigning homework on the podium and gave instructions on precautions during the holiday, and finally said the words "school's out" to the longing eyes of the students below.

Whoosh!

The next second, countless students jumped up from their seats as if ejected, running out in unison.

The Mediterranean dean of students with a shining forehead outside the teaching building looked at this scene that seemed like a zombie siege, and said, completely confused:

"What, what's the situation? Is there a ghost in the school?"

At this moment, a younger youth teacher passing by explained with a smile:

"Director He, today is the premiere day of the second season of 'Bleach,' and the students are all in a hurry to go back and watch it."

"... Is it that exaggerated?"

The dean of students widened his eyes in astonishment; his son was also watching this show.

But he didn't think much of it, always feeling that it was all stuff for kids to watch, childish.

"Sorry, Director, I don't have time to explain to you, I have to hurry back and watch it too."

The young teacher looked at the time on his watch and ran impatiently toward the faculty garage.

"Wait, Xiao Zhang, you have to work overtime tonight!"

The dean of students shouted urgently.

And Teacher Zhang's voice came from the direction of the garage from afar:

"Just deduct it from my salary—"

The dean of students was left alone, disheveled in the wind.

Good grief, have they all been poisoned?

I'll go back tonight and see if this show is really that divine.

It wasn't just these ordinary viewers.

As the update time for the first episode of the "Arrancar Arc" drew closer, even many people in the industry sat in front of their computers, opening the Tencent Video playback page.

Every two minutes, they couldn't help but click the refresh button to see if there was an update.

Even though it was still nearly an hour away from the official update time, they just couldn't help it.

And among these people in the industry.

There were Hu Ge, Jiao Enjun, Qiao Zhenyu, and others who had a good relationship with Xu Feng and participated in it, as well as Da Mimi, Gao Yuanyuan, Dong Xuan... who still had lingering feelings for Xu Feng.

There were even more peers, but Liu Shishi, Guli Nazha, and others who hadn't collaborated with Xu Feng yet...

There was even no lack of some peers.

As for finding flaws in "Bleach," they basically gave up; now their only thought was to finish watching this show and then try to copy some essence.

And also replicate the miracle created by "Bleach," to scam a 4.4 billion investment...

Yeah, dreams still have to be had, otherwise they wouldn't know how cruel reality is.

The moment the pointer of time crossed 20:00:00.

Countless people refreshed the playback page.

"Bleach: Arrancar Arc" episodes one and two were already displayed as completed.

"Hurry up!"

In the university dormitory, countless brothers chasing the drama together clicked on the first episode impatiently.

It was still the stylish opening theme and MV, but compared to the "Soul Society Arc" opening MV where the protagonists were all members of the Gotei 13.

This time it was replaced by the Espada Arrancar army.

Episode 1—Arrancar Invasion! The Father's True Identity

When they saw the title, "Bleach" fans at home and abroad were all stunned.

Father?

Could it be referring to the protagonist Ichigo Kurosaki's dad, Isshin Kurosaki?

That unreliable uncle?

As soon as the second episode started, continuous high-energy moments poured in like a flood.

An Arrancar with a body size that seemed to want to pierce the clouds stood in front of Isshin Kurosaki, who was wearing a Shinigami robe, and drew a Zanpakuto with a length comparable to a skyscraper, sneering:
