Chapter 1137 Movie Celebration Ceremony

“To be more precise, the Three Lives Fruit is really a medicinal herb.”

Fang Qiu smiled and said, “It’s good for your health anyway. You can feel the specific benefits by yourselves.”

When Fang Qiu was done, he returned to the office and gave He Xue, who had devoted herself to work, a Three Lives Fruit. Then, he went to the seedling rearing room and gave one to Mr. Zhao Shanlin. Afterward, he found a cloth bag and put away all the remaining Three Lives Fruits.

When Fang Qiu delivered the fruit to Zhao Shanlin, he saw a few Three Lives Seedlings. Mr. Zhao Shanlin had been trying to cultivate them for a few days and succeeded. Before long, these seedlings would be ready to be transplanted.

A Three Lives Tree only bears fruit once a year. Although these seedlings were still tiny, the fruits would be ripe next year when suffused with sufficient Qi of Heaven and Earth. At that time, it would be a good harvest season!

Fang Qiu was looking forward to it.

He put away the Three Lives Fruits.

Immediately after that, Fang Qiu took out his mobile phone and called He Gaoming.

Of course, he used his John Doe number.

“Hello, master?”

The phone was soon connected. He Gaoming’s voice came, and in the background, one could hear the whistling of the wind and the rustling of leaves.

“Where are you?” asked Fang Qiu in a John Doe tone.

“We’re in the mountains. I brought them here to gain some experience.”

……

He Gaoming chuckled and said, “I wanted to go to the mountains in Nanjiang, but that place was too far away, so I chose a place nearby.”

“Send me your location.”

Fang Qiu added, “I’ll go and meet you now.”

“Great.”

He Gaoming answered and hung up the phone.

Carrying the Three Lives Fruits, Fang Qiu left the cultivation base. In the desert with few people around, he quickly changed into John Doe’s usual attire, put on a mask and then adjusted his phone to the mode that John Doe used.

After he was done, he clicked on the message from He Gaoming and looked at it carefully and found that He Gaoming and the others were in the depths of the endless jungle between Jiangjing and Longquan.

He took a taxi back to Beijiang.

Then he took a direct flight from Beijiang to Longquan.

After his arrival, he went deep into the jungle.

It took Fang Qiu several hours to find He Gaoming and the others.

As he approached the location in the depths of the jungle, Fang Qiu saw a crowd standing on the peak of a particularly high mountain in the distance. Some were practicing the Combined Attack Sword Formation, while some were practicing with each other.

At a glance, they were practicing diligently.

“Whoosh…”

Fang Qiu moved and rushed straight to the mountain peak.

Seeing these people were fully immersed in cultivation, he felt gratified and happy.

“Pow! Pow! Pow!”

The sounds of metal colliding on the mountain top echoed along the mountainside.

As they battled away fiercely, He Gaoming, who was holding a fine sword, suddenly stopped. Then he quickly turned his head and saw a black shadow gliding toward him and rushing to him in an instant.

It was John Doe!

“Master.”

Seeing John Doe, He Gaoming walked over and greeted him with a smile.

One after another, the others also stopped cultivating and surrounded Fang Qiu.

“Thank you for your hard work.”

Glancing at the crowd, Fang Qiu said with a smile. Then he opened the bag with the Earth Treasure and said, “I came here to give you something.”

As soon as he opened the bag, the Three Lives Fruits in the bag were revealed.

“Earth treasure?”

Seeing the golden fruits and feeling the fluctuation of the Qi of Heaven and Earth, everyone instantly became excited and delighted.

So many of them had emerged and made their way into such a deep jungle to practice, but they hadn’t yet had the chance to see an Earth Treasure. They didn’t expect John Doe to bring them a heap of Earth Treasures!

“Yes, they are Earth Treasures.”

Fang Qiu nodded and said to everyone, “And they’re the Three Lives Fruit, which ranks third among the Earth Treasures!”

When they heard what he said, their eyes gleamed with excitement.

These Earth Treasures ranked third among all the Earth treasures and one Earth Treasure like this could elevate their skills one level up!

“Master, as your first disciple, can I take one?”

He Gaoming came over and asked with a flattering smile.

“At first, I wanted to give each of you one fruit, but unfortunately, there are not enough Three Lives Fruits to go around. Now there are only 15 left, so I decided to let you compete for it.”

Having said this, Fang Qiu smiled at He Gaoming and said, “Whoever wins gets the Earth Treasure!”

“Great idea.”

He Gaoming laughed.

He had always been one of the best among all the people. Therefore, he obviously would not refuse the challenge and he began to organize the event right away.

The fight lasted for more than half an hour.

It was only then that the winners were decided.

In the end, each of those who ranked in the top 15 received one Three Lives Fruit from Fang Qiu. As for the others who were weaker, they could only stand aside and watch. Especially, the two who ranked 16th and 17th, they had to forcibly suppress their anger. After all, they were so close to winning the Earth Treasure!

After Fang Qiu finished distributing the fruits, the ones who did not receive them continued to cultivate. They were on the brink of a breakthrough. This setback galvanized them into practicing even more crazily. It didn’t take long for them to reach the verge of a breakthrough.

After swallowing the Earth Treasure and digesting it, the top 15 people instantly made progress in their cultivation and were ready to make a breakthrough in the blink of an eye.

Fang Qiu observed the surroundings and then set up a small favorable terrain. By making use of this advantage, he helped everyone improve their strength by one level.

Two of them reached the sixth class: He Gaoming and Li Boqing, who received Fang Qiu’s instruction on an island in the sea instantly went up to the fifth class; the others also joyfully upgraded to the fourth class!

Everyone was especially thrilled by such a fast-speed advancement!

With the completion of this process, they carried on with the cultivation and consolidation of their strength.

Fang Qiu stood aside, watching the nine people cultivating the Combined Attack Sword Formation!

“Beep! Beep! Beep!”

.

Halfway through, the phone in his trouser pocket suddenly rang.

He took it out and saw a text message informing him that Director Chen Xiaogang had called Fang Qiu’s number!

He immediately switched to Fang Qiu’s number.

Then he stepped into the woods nearby and was ready to return Director Chen Xiaogang’s call.

Before he could find the number, Director Chen Xiaogang called him again.

“Hello, Director Chen?”

In the jungle, Fang Qiu answered the phone.

“What are you busy with exactly? Come back to the capital now and attend the celebration ceremony!”

Chen Xiaogang’s voice sounded.

“Celebration ceremony?”

Fang Qiu was stunned.

“Hum?”

Chen Xiaogang was obviously startled and said, “You really don’t know about it, do you? After you’re done with your role as an actor, you no longer care about our movie, do you?”

“No, not really. I’ve been busy recently, plus I don’t dare to show up anywhere. Even if I want to pay attention, I don’t have the chance and time.”

Fang Qiu gave a wry smile.

“Alright.”

Director Chen Xiaogang sighed softly and said, “Then I will formally invite you to the celebration ceremony for ‘Yang Yizhi’ which has raked in 3 billion yuan at the box office!”

“3 billion?”

Fang Qiu was shocked.

At that time, he predicted the number as 2 billion yuan, but now it had soared up to 3 billion?

“Then why do you think I would invite you to a 3 billion celebration ceremony?”

Chen Xiaogang was speechless.

“Okay, I’ll be there on time.”

Fang Qiu agreed at once.

It would be inappropriate if he didn’t attend such a big ceremony.

Fang Qiu hung up the phone.

He immediately went to check the news online.

After spending some time scanning the news, he found that the box office takings of “Yang Yizhi” that had run for half a month had passed the 3 billion yuan mark and was heading toward 3.1 billion yuan! The growth rate was not slow. According to the prediction of a movie website that was an authority on this, the final box office of “Yang Yizhi” was likely to be 4 billion yuan, or even more!

“Damn it! This movie sure brings colossal profit!”

Seeing these figures, Fang Qiu couldn’t help but feel greatly surprised.

He put away his phone.

Fang Qiu turned around and continued to watch their cultivation.

He Gaoming also received a call from Chen Xiaogang, who invited him to attend the 3 billion yuan celebration ceremony.

“Master.”

After answering the phone, He Gaoming immediately came up and said with a smile, “The box office income of the movie we helped to shoot has exceeded 3 billion yuan. Just now, the director called and invited me to attend the celebration ceremony, saying there will be cash gifts. You see, I have fellow disciples who are living a hand-to-mouth existence like me. Our living expenses are not low. We can’t live like this for a long time. I’m afraid we have to think of other ways to make some more money.”

“Okay.”

Fang Qiu nodded and made a mental note.

He got them the jobs as fight Choreographers, but since there were more than 30 people, 1 million yuan did not last long.

Moreover, although the movie was hot now, only a few companies had offered jobs to He Gaoming’s action direction group. Therefore, it was not a realistic way for them to make money by relying on this unstable occupation.

“It seems that I have to help them find a way out. The group has more than 30 people, each of which has a family to feed. At least, I have to guarantee they earn enough to sustain their normal living standards.”

Fang Qiu muttered to himself.

Soon, He Gaoming and the others left, one after another, after the practice.

Fang Qiu left the deep mountains only after the whole group departed. On his way out of the mountains, he changed into Fang Qiu’s identity. Then, he put on a mask and a hat. After disguising himself, he quickly booked a plane ticket to the capital.

…

At six o’clock in the evening, Fang Qiu got back to the capital and rushed to the celebration venue according to the address given by Director Chen Xiaogang.

In addition to the production team, a lot of fans were also invited to this celebration ceremony. They rented a huge venue, and many media reporters were present.

At eight o’clock in the evening, all the production team members came onto the stage as soon as Fang Qiu arrived. Together, they smashed an ice sculpture with a string of numbers: 3000000000.

He Gaoming and the others were invited to perform a martial arts show on the stage during the ceremony.

Of course, what they performed were actual kung fu moves.

Their performance surprised all the audience and media reporters on the scene.

Even Chen Xiaogang, who was on the stage, couldn’t help but exclaim after watching the performance, “They are indeed masters in Wulin! Amazing!”

While sighing with emotion, he thought of John Doe.

That was a guy who could fly, a real existence as superb as a superman! It was a pity that he was not known by the public.

In addition to He Gaoming’s team, Fang Qiu was also called to perform and was interviewed, which delighted the audience.

Amid the jubilant cheers which swept through like the waves of the sea, an hour passed quickly.

The celebration ceremony was over.

When all the audience left, Director Chen Xiaogang thanked all the staff in the main production team and handed out a cash gift to everyone.
