“This little rascal…” The Bureau Chief mumbled, “10 million USD was just casually given out like that…”

The two people came to the central position of the level four research center. The Bureau Chief stared at the various types of amazing equipment before his eyes, especially the Mechanical Holy Garment in Lin Chuyin’s hands which was currently being manufactured. He strangely asked, “Dali, this… I heard that you plan to invest 50 million into a pure CG animated film? Is that thing that Chuyin is making a prop for the CG animation?”

“Ah? This?” Hong Dali shook his head and said, “It’s not a prop, this is the Mechanical Holy Garment. It can be used for real.”

“Rea… Really?!” The Bureau Chief’s eyes stared widely. “You’re saying that this thing is the legendary… exoskeleton armor?!”

“Yes.” Hong Dali grinned and said, “What Chuyin is wearing on her is this thing. Now we, at last, have a factory over here, so it’s currently producing in volumes. The effect is quite good!” As he spoke, Hong Dali raised his right arm, and mechanical Zz zz sounds sounded. Very quickly, his arm was wrapped in a thin layer of mechanical exoskeleton armor! Hong Dali proudly said, “Uncle Chief, look, I have one on me now. It’s really awesome!”

This lad still had something that he didn’t say directly—This Bureau Chief would definitely want to mass produce this thing after seeing it. By then, if he wanted 100 sets and they were disassembled and transformed into a perfect Mechanical Holy Garment, they would be able to film Iron Man already, wouldn’t they!

As expected, once the Bureau Chief saw that exoskeleton armor on Hong Dali’s arm, his eyes instantly lit up, and he said anxiously, “What functions does this have, quickly let me see!”

“En, Dali creates miracles!” As expected, Hong Dali shouted his own slogan. “Mega particle cannon, shoot!”

Afterward, a little white ball of light instantly started to concentrate its energy on his palm, and soon after, a ray of light was shot out! The ray of light hit an iron spare part which was placed at one side accurately, making a small hole!

“This…” The Bureau Chief was stunned. “You’re using this as part of the Mechanical Holy Garment on the movie?!”

As he spoke, his eyes stared intently at Hong Dali’s arm with an expression as if he couldn’t wait to cut Hong Dali’s arm off!

“Ah, we can’t do that.” Hong Dali shook his head and said, “This thing is for use only by our internal department. We’ll use the normal version on the movie, or else, it’ll be disastrous if lives are lost just by filming a movie…”

“En…” The Bureau Chief touched his chin, and suddenly, his expression became stern. He said, “Dali, about that movie you spoke about just now. You’re planning to invest 50 million into it, right?”

“Yes, what about it?” Hong Dali asked curiously.

“Um, I might have a good idea…” A devilish smile suddenly appeared on the Bureau Chief’s face. “Do you have any reporters or whatnot around you? If you don’t, I can provide a few.”

“Reporters, I really do have!” As Hong Dali spoke, he said to the Star Entertainment reporter, Tang Anqi, seated by the side, “Sister Anqi, come quickly!”

“Young Master, what’s the matter?” Now, Tang Anqi had also started to call Hong Dali “Young Master”…

“Uncle Chief says that he has something to talk to you about.” Hong Dali answered. “But I’m not really sure what exactly it is about…”

“Miss Anqi, hello.” The Bureau Chief pulled Tang Anqi to one side and they started a discussion between themselves. Very soon, a devilish smile appeared on Tang Anqi’s face, as she excitedly said, “Alright, I’ll go right away!”

“These two are so secretive.” Hong Dali sniffled as he played with Quentin. “Quentin, do you think both two of them are not good people?!”

Quentin: “Awooo—”

After instructing Tang Anqi with a few matters, the Bureau Chief grinned as he walked over and took out something wrapped in red cloth from his pocket, saying, “Dali, I have a small suggestion. If you adopt it, then this belongs to you!”

“What’s this thing?!” Hong Dali’s eyes lit up. That thing in the Bureau Chief’s hands looked solid and square, with an impressive look. Hong Dali asked, “You’re passing down the imperial jade seal?”

“It’s a seal specially crafted for you.” The Bureau Chief grinned. “Originally, I’d intended to give it to you a few days later. But now that I think about it, it’s fine to give it to you now. But on one condition.”

The country had personally made a seal for him?! So awesome?

Hong Dali nodded fiercely. “Say it, Uncle Chief. What condition?”

“It’s actually very simple.” The Bureau Chief grinned. “I suggest that you can consider recruiting a few actors from Hollywood for this movie, Holy Warriors of the Goddess. What do you think?”

“Aye? Recruit Hollywood actors?” Hong Dali touched his chin and looked again at the seal in the Bureau Chief’s hands…

“OK!” Hong Dali stretched his hand out. “Give me the seal, then. I’ll do as Uncle Chief says!”

“Haha, good chap, you’re decisive enough!” The Bureau Chief handed the seal to Hong Dali and rushed off. “Little rascal, do it well. I’ll leave first.”

“He left in such a hurry…” Hong Dali was full of curiosity as he took off the cloth on top of the seal. Once he saw the words on the seal, he laughed. “Wahahahahaha! Uncle Chief is a good person! Hahaha! That’s good, that’s good. In the future, I’m someone with a seal too. What a status this entails!”

Everyone’s curiosity reached the max, as they all gathered around. After Hong Dali had gotten an inkpad and stamped the seal, everyone understood why the Bureau Chief had left in such a hurry—

“Squandering for the sake of the rise of Heavenly State, Hong Dali seal!”

…

During the next few days, a storm arrived again!

“The Heaven Sword and Dragon Sabre: Pugilistic World has come to an end. A new journey is about to begin! ‘Young Master’ Hong Dali prepares to start a new operation in burning money and squandering!”—Star Entertainment, Tang Anqi

“Young Master states that this will be a noble venture, and the greatest squandering operation throughout Heavenly State’s film history!”—Voice of Films

“According to shocking news from insider professionals, Young Master Hong Dali will invest 50 million this time!”—Big film lover

Following which, within the next few days, the media was practically completely invested into discussions revolving around the topic of Hong Dali’s larger scale of squandering and burning money this time. Basically, the main focus was on exactly what type of blockbuster would deserve such a sky-high investment into it.

Basically, the views from the discussion were split into two sides. One side felt that Young Master Hong Dali had always been generous in his spending. Had he only invested 10 million or so, he would be too embarrassed to even greet others when he went out of his house. Young Master’s productions must be of top-quality. Even if it’s not top-quality, money must be thrown in to make it top-quality. Thus, it was entirely possible for him to invest 50 million into filming a movie.

On the other hand, the other half felt that Young Master Hong Dali only wanted to squander and burn money. As for the quality of the movie, it was too early to judge. After all, according to insider news, Hong Dali was planning to film an all CG animated film. Currently, the CG animation in Heavenly State was still lacking quite a fair bit compared to Hollywood. Many CG animation production effects were disappointing. With the full CG animated movie in the face of the technological barrier from Hollywood, it might not get any benefits, even if enough money was invested into it—after all, money alone could not nurture top-notch experts in producing CG animations.

While chaos had broken out in the Heavenly State, there were even more overwhelming discussions at Merika!

“The Heaven Sword and Dragon Sabre: Pugilistic World’s mysterious scriptwriter, Young Master Dali Hong, plans a new round of splurging activities. Hollywood faces a steep challenge this time!”—Star Entertainment, Merikan version, Tang Anqi

“Investment as high as 50 million yuan, this will be the strongest storm in the history of the movie industry. Young Master Dali Hong’s ability is not to be belittled. Hollywood is facing a crisis!”—New York Movie Paper

“Young Master Dali Hong reveals shocking news. This will be a full CG animated film, officially challenging Hollywood’s CG technology!”—Hollywood Entertainment Paper

Following the almost ceasing outbreak of news, the discussion about this new full CG movie by Hong Dali had almost drowned everyone at Hollywood in discussions. There were some people who felt that Hollywood had offended the tigers, thus its outcome was very worrying. There were also some quite confident with Hollywood’s animation technology and felt that Young Master would be left out in the cold this time.

Of course, with discussions, there naturally would be some opposing opinions causing disharmony. Countless of experienced movie critics suddenly emerged from nowhere, commenting from the aspect of the professionalism of the technology used in the movie. Though they were still rather polite to Hong Dali, there was still a fair bit of sarcasm between their words, as they reminded Young Master Hong Dali very “kindly” that, compared to focusing on producing CG animation special effects, Young Master Dali Hong should focus more on being a scriptwriter. CG animation production technology was too specialized for a scriptwriter.

Of course, the Merikan public opinion was largely different as they almost all leaned towards one side. They were deeply dissatisfied that such an outstanding movie like “The Heaven Sword and Dragon Sabre: Pugilistic World” had only been screened for one day. That was too unfair as it limited the rights of the citizens to watch the movie. Thus, this time, they decided to support Young Master Dali Hong a few months earlier!

Also, as expected, everyone almost completely forgot the identity of Young Master Dali Hong as a prodigal. They were already starting to discuss him from head to toe as if he were a movie star and thought that Young Master Dali Hong was a little too low profile, thus, he should come to Merika, Hollywood, to visit and offer some constructive suggestions.

Of course, that was only done along the way. The real reason why the public wanted him to come was that Young Master Dali Hong should hold a live autograph session with those items that had been registered under his name, especially for those females that had bought “Young Master” brand condoms…

These discussions came one after another. Anyway, this topic had basically been made as a hot topic.

Just then, countless of reporters rushed towards Tianjing City’s Chenhui Building to interview Young Master Dali Hong. As expected, Young Master Dali Hong rejected as many such interviews as he could. The reporters didn’t even manage to see Young Master Dali Hong once—among them was a pretty female reporter named Catherine.

The more Young Master Dali Hong refused to be interviewed, the more popular the discussions about him preparing to crush Hollywood with this movie became. Then, after it had attracted enough attention…

Star Entertainment released a huge piece of news!
