266: Crazy Racing is showing! Audiences are going crazy: "You want to take the postgraduate entrance exam? Hahahaha..."

But at least in the hearts of netizens, its reputation was quite good.

Because since Great Xu was founded, they haven't produced even a single bad film yet.

Whether it was the initial 'summer fall,' or the 'stone' produced under Zhao Fan's name.

Not to mention 'kung fu,' which broke multiple box office records and even added millions of members to Da Xu Video Network.

The quality of the films was better with each release, and the plots were more exciting with each release.

So when netizens saw that 'Crazy racing' produced by Da Xu Culture was about to be released, they became highly expectant.

Moreover, judging by the film's title, it was clearly the second installment in the Crazy Series.

The promotional materials also made this point clear.

That is, this installment of 'racing' would continue the comedic style of the first part, though the stories would be mutually independent.

Speaking of which, Da Xu Culture's comedies are now among the best in the entire industry.

As straightforward as always, the promotional work for 'racing' did not take much time.

Amidst the anticipation of the netizens, it finally premiered.

That day, Xu Lu gave everyone in the Iron-Man Film Crew a day off, and they all went to see the movie together that evening.

This was quickly becoming a traditional activity for 'Da Xu Culture.'

Whenever a film produced by the company premiered, the group movie outing was always included.

"Xu Lu, why aren't there any other big blockbusters premiering recently?

Besides this 'racing' film you made, it seems a bit strange!"

After arriving at the cinema, Reba, wearing aviator glasses, asked in surprise.

Xu Lu, who was also wearing sunglasses, thought for a moment and joked:

"Maybe other film and television companies chose to keep their distance after seeing Da Xu Culture release a film!"

Unexpectedly, Reba, who was beside him, nodded seriously upon hearing this and said:

"That's true. Your previous film, 'kung fu,' took in over five billion in box office revenue.

It could be described as 'killing gods if gods block, killing buddhas if buddhas block.'

It's normal for everyone not to want to compete with you now that they see you've released another movie."

"Uh, you actually believe that?" Xu Lu asked incredulously.

Reba smiled and said:

"It is a fact, why wouldn't I believe it? You don't still think that 'Great Xu' is some small company in the industry, do you?

Maybe that was the case before 'kung fu' premiered, but after that blockbuster, the situation has already changed.

Great Director Xu, you haven't gotten used to this change yourself, have you?"

Xu Lu was speechless because he realized what Reba said seemed to be true.

Da Xu Culture now is truly not something just any Tom, Dick, or Harry can try to scam.

In fact, this was true, such as Zhao Xiaomeng, who had already decided to clash with Xu Lu.

She had originally intended to introduce a foreign film during this period to compete with Da Xu Culture's 'racing.'

But after careful consideration, she gave up on this impulsive idea.

Although Zhao Xiaomeng scoffed at Da Xu Culture's plans to shoot a science fiction film, she felt she had very little chance of winning against its comedy films.

So, she simply chose not to embarrass herself.

Thus, when 'Crazy racing' premiered, aside from films that weren't expected to earn high box office returns or art films aiming for awards,

there wasn't even a single big-budget commercial film released. 'racing' was truly in a league of its own... Inside the screening room, the movie quickly began.

As the opening scene appeared, some audience members called out the name of the familiar face:

"Hey, isn't that Black Skin from 'crazy stone' last time? This guy is hilarious. Is he the protagonist this time?"

"I have to say, Da Xu Culture's comedies have something special. The protagonists aren't even handsome men and beautiful women, haha."

"I wonder what the main plot is about this time. Judging from this early part of the story, is it about bicycle racing?"

"Holy crap! Black Skin—oh no, 'Geng Hao' was actually framed... well, not exactly framed, but implicated and banned from the competition..."

"Wait, if the protagonist is banned, why is the movie still called 'Crazy racing'? That's a bit strange!"

..."Hahahaha, the Boat Boss is too unlucky. He was playing mahjong and suddenly died."

"Oh my god, the protagonist's master is even unluckier than the Boat Boss. He just fell down and died like that?"

"Awesome! It’s the familiar multi-threaded plot structure, a bit like the 'stone' from last time.

But it's a little brain-burning. Who exactly did this guy hire those two assassins to kill?"

"Holy moly, they were actually trying to kill that man's wife... They failed to kill her and got beaten up instead, hahahaha."

"But this Brother-in-law looks like a ruthless character... 'You want to take the graduate entrance exam?' That line is instantly classic..."

...As the plot unfolded, laughter erupted continuously throughout the screening room.

Reba, sitting next to Xu Lu, was already shaking with laughter, constantly slapping his arm.

"Xu Lu, how did you write this script? It's too funny! 'You want to take the graduate entrance exam,' hahahaha."

Watching Reba quietly imitate the line from the movie, Xu Lu rolled his eyes helplessly.

There was nothing he could do; the girl next to him had too low a threshold for laughter.

Since sitting down, she had basically not stopped laughing.

Although the Actors in the film performed quite well, it shouldn't be *this* funny, right?

"Keep laughing, keep laughing. You'll all be gasping in shock soon enough."

Xu Lu muttered to himself internally.

It did not exceed his expectations.

Just a few minutes later, various gasping sounds echoed throughout the screening room.

As for the reason.

It was because the film's plot had just reached the scene where the Siamese Assassin was frozen to death in the refrigerated truck.

The Siamese Assassin, covered in tattoos, was caught mid-push with his hands outward, but his body was already stiff.

A moment later, the audience's murmurs began:

"Oh my goodness! That's too scary, but why does it also feel a bit like black humor?"

"I completely didn't expect this person to freeze to death, but thinking back now, it feels quite normal."

"Exactly! The Younger Brother-in-law just randomly pressed the buttons in the car, and that's how that person froze to death."

"Ugh, why can't I stop laughing? They actually used the frozen guy to pretend to push the cart, hahahaha."

...Although there were small scares, the main theme of 'racing' remained comedy.

From the protagonist's master's ashes being mistaken for 'Black Powder' by those people, to the character 'Li Fala' being fed cockroaches, and the funeral parlor plot.

Even the final scene where the Brother-in-law and the Younger Brother-in-law swaggered off to trade the 'Black Powder' with the police made the audience burst into uncontrollable laughter.

When the box office data was released that night, everyone knew that 'Great Xu' was secure once again, as 'racing' achieved a first-day box office of 60 million.

Over the next few days, the box office for 'racing' steadily rose. Although it couldn't surpass 'kung fu,' everyone knew that reaching one billion in ticket sales should not be a problem.

Just as the 'racing' box office was pushing hard, the Iron-Man Film Crew ran into an unexpected crisis.
