Chapter 669: Chapter 340: The Explosive Video! He Time-Traveled
When Fu Zhan heard this, he grew anxious. "Sir, we have an agreement with Mr. Chen. The promotion has to align with his plan. Plus, we signed a contract, so we can’t act on our own. Tiao Yin is also involved, so we can’t just do whatever we want."
The leader looked embarrassed. "Ah, right. I got a little too excited. Let’s stick to the plan, then!"
He then quickly changed the subject. "So, what’s next? How is that Mr. Chen going to handle the promotion?"
Fu Zhan immediately explained, "Next, Mr. Chen should be releasing the video we shot at Jinglan City. That video will definitely blow everyone away."
It wasn’t just the leader who was curious; many people online were wondering the same thing.
They felt that Chen Jincheng wouldn’t just mention the name Jinglan City and leave it at that. There had to be a follow-up, something related to Jinglan City.
Besides, they already knew there was a Jinglan City scenic area in Coastal City.
’Chen Jincheng, we’ve seen right through your little trick.’
This was what many people were thinking.
And seeing through Chen Jincheng’s scheme gave them a real sense of accomplishment.
Amidst this atmosphere, Chen Jincheng’s account finally released a new video. With all the hype, and with Tiao Yin boosting its visibility, the video went viral almost the instant it was posted.
The likes were racking up at a rate of over 500 per second.
Guo Feng found out about the video right away because he had notifications turned on. Whenever Chen posted a new video, he would be alerted immediately.
When he opened Chen’s account to check, the video already had over 30,000 likes.
30,000 likes wasn’t particularly strange, but when he saw that the video had only been up for one minute, he was completely floored.
A video with 30,000 likes in one minute... it seemed like nothing like that had ever happened on all of Tiao Yin.
His curiosity piqued, he immediately clicked on the video. It opened with Chen standing in front of an ancient city gate.
A close-up shot of the gate showed the two words "Jinglan City."
’So it really is this scenic area.’
’Chen specifically mentioned it in the ring. He really is promoting this place.’
’And the video quality seems incredible. It’s totally cinematic, isn’t it?’
But he soon realized something was off. He heard the cry of a sword-seller at the city gate—a somewhat scruffy-looking middle-aged man holding a longsword.
Chen walked over to the sword-seller and bought the sword, then overheard the scruffy man mutter that there was more to this sword than meets the eye.
At this point, he didn’t think much of it. But when he saw Chen walk into the city gate and the screen distort for a moment, he felt something was wrong. And just as he suspected, when Chen passed through the gate, the people inside were all wearing ancient-style clothing.
The environment inside was also from ancient times; there was no sign of the modern world.
’Something’s not right. This is a short video, but why does it feel like a time-travel drama?’
Just then, a scene caught Guo Feng’s eye. Chen was drawn to a crowd watching a performance, and looking closer, he saw two roly-poly toy performers.
As the camera zoomed in, he saw that the performers on the roly-poly toys were two beautiful girls dressed in Hanfu.
That’s right, not only were the girls themselves beautiful, but the Hanfu they wore was also stunning. He had never seen Hanfu so gorgeous before. As they swayed on the roly-poly bases, they displayed a graceful and captivating posture.
’Who are these two girls?’
Guo Feng was very curious.
He was sure these two weren’t among Cheng’s girls, but he was certain they had to be artists from Second-Life Star, because Chen wouldn’t promote someone else for free.
Just as he was wondering about them, two other incredibly beautiful girls suddenly pushed their way out of the crowd, instantly drawing everyone’s attention the moment they appeared.
Guo Feng recognized them. Weren’t they Xiaoju and Li Xiaoyang, two of Cheng’s girls?
The two girls were already standouts among Cheng’s girls for their looks, but what made them so captivating this time wasn’t just their beauty—it was the Hanfu they were wearing.
That Hanfu was just too beautiful, too exquisite. The camera deliberately focused on it, showcasing it in a way that was countless times more stunning than what was seen in the shot with the two roly-poly performers.
He even felt that, compared to this, the historical costumes in TV dramas looked like a pile of garbage.
In other words, acting skills aside, these two girls in their Hanfu were more dazzling than the lead actresses in many films and TV shows.
"That person’s clothes are so strange!"
"Yeah, I’ve never seen clothes like his before."
The girls’ conversation made Guo Feng pause. Then the camera pulled back, revealing that everyone around them was in ancient attire, making Chen’s modern short-sleeved shirt look completely out of place.
He understood now. It was time travel.
In the video, the character Chen was playing had traveled back to ancient times.
It was because he’d bought that sword at the city gate.
’Right, the sword-seller at the gate said the sword was special. Chen time-traveled because of it.’
’It all connects.’
Guo Feng felt a tingling on his scalp. ’So that’s how it is.’
’No wonder Chen said in the ring to go to Jinglan City and experience a journey through time.’
’Another closed loop. It’s all one link after another...’
Meanwhile, Lei Xiaojun was also watching the video. After all, he was a shareholder in Second-Life Star and naturally paid close attention to the company. The promotional plan for Jinglan City had been part of the financing proposal Chen Jincheng had given him.
Although the profit margin wasn’t huge, a 100-million-yuan promotion fee was still a big deal.
He just didn’t know to what extent President Chen could promote Jinglan City.
However, when he saw the two girls in Hanfu emerge from the crowd, his eyes lit up.
He recognized the two girls, of course; he had seen them with President Chen at the hotel banquet. But what caught his attention was the Hanfu they were wearing.
In the financing plan, the Hanfu business was one of the industries projected to become profitable the quickest.
Now, seeing the Hanfu worn by the two girls in the video, he understood why President Chen was so confident about the Hanfu industry.
He didn’t know much about Hanfu, but he knew how to appreciate beauty.
The aesthetic, the beauty of this Hanfu was definitely superior to the costumes and makeup from any film company. Once this was promoted, there would be no fear of a lack of buyers. Moreover, President Chen was also planning to promote the "Hanfu Travel Day" on November 22nd.
If the Hanfu Travel Day promotion was successful, the Hanfu market would see explosive growth. In that case, Second-Life Star’s Hanfu designs would surely be a massive hit and sell out.
Lei Xiaojun was still lost in thought when the next scene in the video shocked him. He watched as the sword was kicked into the air, and then President Chen executed a stylish turn, catching the hilt as it fell. Even with his vast experience and high status, he couldn’t help but let out an involuntary gasp: "Holy sh—"
When Guo Feng saw this, his jaw dropped in astonishment and stayed that way for a long time. "Oh my god, what did I just see? Am I hallucinating?"
It wasn’t just him. Every single person who saw Chen Jincheng kick the longsword into a spinning ascent, then turn stylishly to catch it as it fell, thought it was impossible.
No one could pull off something like that.
And yet, Chen Jincheng had done it.
Most importantly, everyone realized that this was another closed loop. Chen Jincheng had just defeated Piaoxiang Yuan in the ring, and in such a clean, decisive way. In other words, he knew real martial arts.
’So now he’s at Jinglan City, and he has this sword-kicking skill... that makes perfect sense, right?’
’He knows real martial arts, after all.’
For a moment, it was hard to tell what was real and what was fantasy. Damn, Chen Jincheng was just too good at this.
Next, everyone watched as Chen Jincheng began to wield the longsword in a fluid dance. At the same time, the scene transitioned, and his modern short-sleeved shirt transformed into ancient robes.
This set of swordsmanship was incredibly stylish and beautiful, reminding everyone of what they had heard before.
’This looks like the Sword Dance left behind by the Yu Sword Saint, the one that very few people could ever master.’
’So, Chen Jincheng knows the Sword Dance, travels back to ancient times, and becomes a Swordsman... that all checks out, right?’
In the final scene, everyone saw Chen Jincheng shouldering his sword and following the two beautiful girls in Hanfu. It was obvious to anyone watching that he had taken a liking to them.
But at that point, the video ended, leaving everyone wondering what would happen next.
But many people who finished the video were so stunned they couldn’t recover for a long time.
’Is this really just a short video? Why do I get the feeling that if they expanded the plot and kept filming, you could call it a TV series or a movie? Isn’t this better than a lot of the dramas out there now?’
Everyone who saw the video was stunned. Because of this, as time went on, the video quickly blew up online, generating an unbelievable amount of buzz.
