Chapter 64: When the eerie song *Little White Boat* meets *The Ring*

“Too bad you guys aren’t short of money, otherwise, I’d even want to spend money to bribe you…”

Su Xue thought of the only solution to the problem.

It was just a pity that she thought the twins weren’t short of money.

After all, these two sisters had earned over 20 million on major music platforms last month; how could they be short of money?

“Wait, I can buy songs from you…”

Su Xue’s eyes lit up.

She thought of using magic to defeat magic.

As everyone knew, You Mingyue had top-tier creative ability; if she bought songs from them, she would definitely not lose much.

Thinking of this, Su Xue’s chest heaved, and her breathing quickened.

Once the thought of buying songs arose, she felt the world open up.

If you can’t beat them, join them; it’s not shameful.

“So smart!” Su Xue praised herself.

But just then.

Su Xue’s phone screen lit up, and a WeChat message came in. Su Xue clicked it open and saw it was from Wang Wang Bancheng.

Wang Wang Bancheng: “Next time for sure (smiley face).”

Su Xue replied with a smiley face, but whispered: “Next time I sing your song and run into You Mingyue, I’m just going to give up.”

Having lost twice in a row, this music master was also no match for You Mingyue.

……

And while the internet was lively and the music scene was shaking.

September 1st, 0:10 AM.

In major cinema chains across the country, the premiere of *The Ring* was about to begin.

……

Imperial Capital Dafeng Cinema, Hall 7.

At this very moment.

Two-thirds of the seats in the hall were filled with audience members who had come to watch. Some were fans of Yang Mi, some were fans of You Mingyue, some were horror movie enthusiasts, and some were just looking for a thrill… watching a ghost movie at midnight is so exciting.

Of course.

There were also several couples and men and women on blind dates watching, with the men hoping that when the ghosts appeared later, the girls would scream and throw themselves into their arms.

And in the middle of the hall.

Sat two slightly chubby young men wearing glasses.

Their names were A-Mu and A-Dai, and they were content creators in the film and television section of Bilibili.

At the same time, they were Weibo influencers and well-known film critics on Xingkong.com, China’s largest film and television rating website.

The two were known online for their sharp tongues.

Someone once said that the saliva they used to spray on movies could circle the earth eight hundred times.

They loved to edit bad dramas and then use their sharp tongues to attract attention and gain traffic.

Recently, they had set their sights on *The Ring*.

The reason was simple.

First, this movie came from the hands of rookie screenwriters.

You Mingyue were indeed great at music, but it couldn’t be denied that in the film industry, they were proper newcomers, having just entered the Imperial Drama Academy…

What kind of good script could they write?

Even if it was brilliant, it would be limited.

The probability of *The Ring* being a bad movie was higher.

Second, Yang Mi.

Although this sister had been in the entertainment industry for a long time, she didn’t have any highly-rated film works.

Third, the most critical point was…

This movie was the most popular movie recently.

As You Mingyue became explosively popular in the music scene, the movie *The Ring* related to them also became popular.

It received attention from many netizens.

If *The Ring* really was a big piece of trash, then raging about it would definitely have a very good effect.

This was exactly what A-Dai and A-Mu wanted.

They made money from traffic, so they definitely had to find ways to get traffic.

A-Dai: “Don’t get scared later, okay?”

A-Mu: “Ha? I’m afraid of a rookie screenwriter’s work? Whoever gets scared is a dog.”

At this time.

The movie started.

The lights in the hall went out.

Amidst a slightly sad and dark-style soundtrack, black subtitles floated by; these were some details about the movie.

Director: Li Li Yaohuo/You Mingyue

Screenwriter: You Mingyue

Male Lead: Zhang Zhang Yunlong

Female Lead: Yang Mi

Producer: Yang Mi

These were all pieces of information that had already been disclosed, so it wasn’t surprising.

Immediately after.

The music stopped abruptly, and the subtitles disappeared.

The screen lit up.

Saying it lit up, it wasn’t completely bright.

The scene that appeared was a dark night, with seawater constantly churning.

Immediately after.

The scene changed.

It appeared in the living room of a house.

A girl named Qian Jing was alone at home because her parents were away on a business trip, and she felt scared, so she called her classmate and good friend Wang Xiaomei to keep her company.

While they were watching TV, Wang Xiaomei suddenly started talking about a horror story she had heard.

“A boy went on vacation to Liancheng with his family. In the hotel room, he accidentally found a USB drive that someone had dropped. The boy thought it was a pornographic video, so he took it home. He plugged the USB into his computer, but saw a woman saying he would die in a week.

The boy hurriedly turned off the TV, and at that moment, his phone rang. The boy answered, and a buzzing electromagnetic sound came from it… see, the boy really died a week later.” Wang Xiaomei said with a giggle.

She thought it was just a rumored horror story.

But Qian Jing’s expression was very strange after hearing it.

Then.

She revealed the truth.

It turned out that seven days ago, Qian Jing had experienced exactly the same thing as the boy.

She and two other classmates went to Liancheng to play, and in the hotel room in Liancheng, they found a USB drive. Being curious, they plugged the USB into the smart TV in the hotel.

Then they saw a blurry video, a suddenly appearing noisy ringtone, and a woman saying she would die in seven days… and tonight was the last day of the story.

After hearing this, Wang Xiaomei was also scared pale, extremely terrified.

……

In Hall 7.

Under the horror atmosphere, all the audience members held their breath, swallowing from time to time, looking nervous and scared, but their eyes couldn’t bear to move away from the screen for even a second.

Under the influence of the empathy talent, they felt almost exactly the same as Wang Xiaomei.

In the entire hall, only A-Mu and A-Dai were not much affected. 0 ....

They came with the intention of finding a bad movie and hadn’t been empathized with yet.

“A cliché opening.”

“Actually, there is still some novelty. At least the point of the USB drive spreading the curse is something I haven’t seen in other ghost movies. The imagination is a bit big.”

“But to support a movie, this point is far from enough.”

“The actress for Wang Xiaomei is Zhu Zhu Xudan, right? Pretty.”

“Yeah, that counts as a highlight too.”

The two whispered to each other.

……

And in the movie.

At this time.

As if to verify something.

Qian Jing’s phone, which was charging on the table, suddenly rang.

“In the blue sky and the Milky Way, there is a little white boat, floating, floating… hehehe (child’s giggling sound)…”

If there were any transmigrators from Earth, they would recognize this as the horror nursery rhyme *Little White Boat*, and it was the scariest requiem version.

Eerie music.

Eerie phone call.

In an instant, the horror atmosphere was maxed out.

Wang Xiaomei and Qian Jing’s faces changed drastically, and they immediately gathered around the table, full of fear.

Listening to the eerie ringtone, Wang Xiaomei finally chose to answer.

After answering, the voice on the phone made her let out a long sigh; it turned out to be Qian Jing’s parents calling.

Both of them had a false alarm, looked at each other, and smiled.

The audience in the hall also let out a sigh of relief and calmed their hearts.

When Wang Xiaomei answered the phone just now, it had scared them all.

Subsequently, on the screen.

Qian Jing was alone in the kitchen drinking water.

But she suddenly felt the atmosphere was eerie.

She swallowed, her lips moved, and her eyes showed fear.

This made the audience’s hearts hang again.

Then, Qian Jing turned her head abruptly.

She seemed to have seen something extremely terrifying! 2.6!

Her eyes widened, her expression shocked!

Finally, she was scared to death!

……

At the same time.

In the hall.

“Hiss!”

“Holy crap!”

“Don’t kill me!”
