nThe whole world went crazy. However, people still underestimated the power of this low-budget, short film Unexpectedly!.

nThe short film had tens of millions of views on earth, not to say in this parallel world where the level of entertainment shows was of a much lower standard.

nWithin just a few days, Unexpectedly! quickly rose to the top five of So Cool’s “Trending” and “No. of Downloads” lists.

nAfter another three days, it became the fourth most downloaded show, then third, and finally, it reached the second position, leaving the other video programmes in the dust—be it other movies, music MVs, or gag clips.

nAnd at this time, the video that held the most downloads belonged to a clip of Li Nianwei’s godly concert.

nEveryone became stunned but could only remain helpless.

nIn reality, these achievements could no longer be attributed to pure luck. In the face of absolute skill and ability, all hard work and effort were rendered useless.

nOn the fourth day after release, Zhang Cai held a press conference, announcing that this was just the first episode of Unexpectedly! . There would be a new episode broadcasted every two weeks, with a total of ten episodes. And thus, after the press conference, a new group appeared on the Internet, called the Refresh Party.

nTheir job every day was to refresh So Cool’s webpage every ten minutes.

nAll these caused Wu Youdao to have a heart attack, leading to him being admitted to Tianjing Medical University Second Hospital’s Special Care Unit due to the overexcitement he received when So Cool’s traffic surged to an unprecedented level.

nHowever, it did not stop there. The smart ones in the world quickly responded with various actions.

nHui Teng Entertainment held a press conference on the fifth day, announcing that it would shoot a new martial arts TV series. The protagonist would use a long flashy sword as his weapon, and the protagonist’s martial arts would be named “Nine Suns Godly Fist.”

nThis caused the stock of Hui Teng Entertainment to soar by 20% overnight at the speed of a sports car.

nIn the face of the miraculous Unexpectedly! , Tianjing Entertainment Channel was naturally unwilling to lag behind, and at the same time learned the lesson from the previous time. This time, they did not dare to broadcast live and did not dare to call Hong Dali again.

nThey focused their attention on Zhang Cai, one of the heads of Cai Wei Entertainment.

nAlso, the ratings of Tianjing Entertainment Channel hit a new high, reaching an astonishing 5.7%.

n…

nFor the past two days, Tianjing Satellite TV’s Director Huang had been pumping his chest.

nHe was frightened. But at the same time, he felt fortunate that he did not decline Hong Dali’s request to broadcast “I Am a Singer.”

nNot considering others, just Unexpectedly!’s popularity made Hong Dali someone that he could not offend.

nOtherwise, as long as he wanted, the ratings of Tianjing Satellite TV would fall entirely. Now that he had a chance, as long as he communicated well with Manager Zhang Cai and included an advertisement for “I Am A Singer” during the broadcast of Unexpectedly! , the ratings of Beijing Satellite TV would definitely skyrocket, easily breaking through the 5% mark.

nAfter thinking about these, Director Huang felt reinvigorated, as if he had just stepped out from hell and into a mountain of gold.

n…

nSo Cool Video’s webpage, under the comments section of Unexpectedly, Dali Creates Miracles! .

n“What the heck! The animation is so cool!”

n“Listen to that cry full of emotion!”

n“There is no need to say how good this video is, all I hope is to become his disciple!”

n“Look at Chui Chui’s petite legs! That’s definitely my type!”

n“Chui Chui is my male idol! No one is allowed to snatch him away from me!”

n…

nLiu Mingxin, who was standing in front of the window looking at the crowd in the campus, shook his head and smiled. “Hong Dali is a really interesting person to be able to come up with such an interesting video. Even I can’t help but want to see the episodes.”

nThinking up to here, Liu Mingxin could only sigh and feel that destiny was playing a fool out of him.

nOtherwise, befriending such an interesting person would definitely not be a bad thing.

n…

nWhile the whole world was shocked, Hong Dali was leisurely enjoying himself for the past two days. He didn’t bother estimating how impactful and famousUnexpectedly! was. Anyway, he started it without any intention but to just have fun. That was until Zhang Cai reported the current earnings—

n“Young Master, So Cool has just given us a call.” Zhang Cai reported with a smile while standing next to Hong Dali. “Currently, Unexpectedly!’ s first episode has reached a total of 57 million views on So Cool’s website. The download count has reached an astonishing 22 million. We’re paid five cents for each download. That is to say, with just the download count, our net profit has reached 1.15 million.”

n“Oh… that’s not bad.” After adjusting to a more comfortable position on Li Nianwei’s lap, he asked, “Is there anything else to report?”

n“There is indeed something else.” Zhang Cai continued, “At present, many people have contacted us to slot in their advertisements. The advertising fees are basically around 300,000 to 400,000. A total of 16 companies have called me. Young Master, do you think we should…”

n“Decline all of them.” Hong Dali did not even pause to think. “If there are too many advertisements, it will be irritating for the viewers. I hate advertisements when I watch shows.”

n“Okay.” Zhang Cai sighed helplessly and thought in her heart, The potential advertisement earnings of 6.7 million are gone. This young master is really… In any case, he doesn’t lack money. It’s just that these companies are going to be disappointed.

nAfter listening to Zhang Cai’s report, Hong Dali turned to ask Ling Xiaoyi, “Xiaoyi, has the construction for the village on the hill near Fengyuan Lake started? Also, has the cleaning started for the rubbish on Tianjing Mountain?”

nThese two things were critical to help spend the money needed to satisfy the Prodigal Mission requirements.

n“Construction has started for the area near Fengyuan Lake.” Ling Xiaoyi continued, “Cleaning has also started for the Tianjing Mountain. It should soon finish according to Young Master’s requirements.”

n“En, okay. I understand. Let me sleep for a while then.” After muttering a few sentences, Hong Dali went to sleep while the people around went to do what they were supposed to do.

nHowever, although Hong Dali seemed to be sleeping on the surface, he was actually thinking about a problem. Why did the system not have any response even after Sister Cai reported that Unexpectedly! has brought in a net profit of 1.15 million?

nHong Dali would never forget the case that happened when he just transmigrated. He went to the casino in an attempt to lose money but ended up winning instead. After winning, the squandering amount required by the system increased! Am I unable to earn money? Otherwise, the mission will not be completed?

nThinking up to here, Hong Dali hurriedly pulled out the system interface—

n“Mission Squandered Value: 9,874,564 yuan.”
