CHAPTER 236: CHAPTER 0236 XIAO’S FILM IGNITES THE WORLD_1

In the meeting room, the short film had finished playing.

But everyone still stood there dumbstruck, their gazes fixed on the blank wall screen. It was as if they had lost their souls, still savoring the incredibly brilliant scenes. Some even still had goosebumps on their skin, a result of their excitement and awe.

Liu Ruolan was the first to snap out of it. Her gaze fell on Zhang Bin’s face, her heart churning with utter astonishment.

Just who was her husband? How could he be so miraculous? He had never directed a film before, so how could he suddenly produce such an amazing short? How many incredible skills was he hiding?

Whenever he took on a profession, he was an absolute master, peerless and unmatched. His medical skills were the best in the world, and his martial arts were extremely powerful. The two medicines he developed were also incredibly miraculous. He had learned three languages in just three days, speaking them more fluently and correctly than even native speakers. The Network Language School he developed made even top computer experts blush with shame.

The short film he just directed would undoubtedly crush any other movie. It would surely trigger a tsunami, a revolution in the film industry.

In the past, Liu Ruolan felt she had an advantage over Zhang Bin in terms of education. She was a university graduate, while he had only finished high school and was a simple farmer. But now, she felt as if she were the simple farmer, and Zhang Bin was the university graduate.

It wasn’t that she didn’t study hard or keep up with the times. Rather, her husband’s progress was simply too fast—so fast that she could never hope to catch up.

That’s fine. I’ll just assist him and help build a great enterprise that belongs to him, to Zhang Bin. I am his woman, and also his assistant. We will face life and death together, weathering every storm side-by-side. We will laugh when he laughs and cry when he cries.

When the others came to their senses, they exploded into thunderous applause, their faces flushed with excitement.

"Chairman, the short film you directed is sure to sweep the globe."

"Chairman, just put this short film on the internet, and it will definitely be the biggest story online! Maybe we won’t even need the CCTV ad spot anymore."

"That’s right! With Heavenly Queen Zhu Danyan starring in it, the film is already huge news. She has countless fans who will naturally want to watch it. And after seeing such an exciting film, word will spread like wildfire. Our company can just sit back and count the money. Why would we need to advertise on CCTV?"

"Congratulations, Chairman!"

A chorus of similar praise filled the room.

Zhang Bin was very pleased to see his short film receive such high praise. He smiled and said, "In that case, I’ll release it on the internet right away. Our company will also begin operations immediately. Everyone, get to your positions and prepare to start."

Everyone almost fainted. The chairman is so swift and decisive! He’s not even holding an opening ceremony?

However, Liu Ruolan didn’t object. She smiled and said, "Let’s see how it performs first. Then we can decide whether we need to advertise on CCTV."

And so, Wenwu Pharmaceutical Group’s new subsidiary, the Star Interlanguage School, launched without any fanfare.

At Zhang Bin’s command, Tutu sprang into action, releasing the short film onto the internet. This time, it didn’t hack into any computers or phones. It simply posted the film on numerous forums and Tieba.

The film was titled "Aliens Invade Earth."

Soon, people began to click on and watch the roughly fifteen-minute film. As expected, they were left utterly dumbfounded and speechless. Instantly, the internet exploded. Discussions about the alien invasion of Earth flooded every corner of the web. On WeChat, in QQ groups, and across countless forums and Tieba, it was the only thing anyone was talking about.

"Oh my god, this is definitely the best short film Heavenly Queen Zhu Danyan has ever starred in! It’s so freaking awesome, I’m totally blown away!"

"Star Interlanguage School actually pulled off something this big? They have such terrifying resources?"

"Hahaha... Look what I found! Lead actress: Zhu Danyan. Director: Zhang Bin. He’s the chairman of Wenwu Pharma, which means he founded the Star Interlanguage School!"

"That’s hilarious. Why is Zhang Bin neglecting his work on new medicines to shoot short films and start a language school instead?"

"Zhang Bin is the most unprofessional doctor of the century, hands down. Case closed."

"I’ve watched this movie eight times already and I’m still not sick of it, especially the scene where Heavenly Queen Zhu Danyan appears. She’s so beautiful it makes my heart tremble."

"I’ve discovered a huge secret! Look, the Empress seems to have gotten much fuller. Could she have gotten breast implants?"

"No way! My Empress is a natural beauty; she would never do that!"

The discussion raged on.

The topic was too sensitive. Heavenly Queen Zhu Danyan had no choice but to hold a press conference. She announced that she had not undergone surgery. Instead, she had taken a breast enhancement tonic developed by the Divine Doctor, Zhang Bin, which caused her to grow several cup sizes. She revealed that she was now a stunning G-cup.

All her fans were immediately thrilled, howling with joy because their Empress had become even more beautiful, sexy, and enticing. Their fantasies about her just got even better.

However, Liu Ruolan deduced the secret behind this news. She pulled Zhang Bin aside and said with playful reproach, "Honey, has the Empress become one of your women, too?"

She knew very well that Zhang Bin hadn’t yet developed any marketable breast enhancement medicine. For it to work, he had to perform the treatment himself. That was how Zhang Bin had performed the procedure on her. If the Empress wasn’t one of his women, why would she allow him to perform such an intimate procedure on her?

"Honey, I did perform the breast enhancement for the Empress, but it was only because she had a medical issue... That’s why I helped. So, the Empress is not my woman. I swear," Zhang Bin said with utmost sincerity.

Even though he and the Empress had shared a passionate night, leaving behind beautiful memories, she did not wish to be his woman, and he couldn’t force her. So, he wasn’t lying, was he?

Liu Ruolan believed him without any further doubts. Any lingering questions were washed away by a wave of joy.

The reason was the flood of visitors coming to the Star Interlanguage School’s website. On the first day alone, traffic reached a million visits, with 5,000 people signing up for classes. That meant an income of five million RMB.

The following days were even crazier. The number of visitors broke the ten million mark, and new sign-ups stabilized at around 10,000 per day, translating to a daily income of ten million RMB.

Liu Ruolan was overjoyed, her smile blooming like a flower.

Zhang Bin, on the other hand, was completely flabbergasted. He felt like he was dreaming.

This was too easy. It seemed even more profitable than developing medicine! Was Liu Ruolan’s foresight really that incredible? To think she could turn a piece of language software he barely cared about into a golden goose.
