Chapter 568: even pregnant women need to do more activities.

Mother jiang just happened to walk in. when she saw this scene, she could not help but laugh till she could not close her mouth. "young master is back?"

"yes."

"i'll go upstairs and show it to you!" shi cai ning glanced at gu kuangen. seeing that he was really not in the mood to eat, he stood up and walked upstairs, hoping that his two-part proposal would give him a pleasant surprise.

Dozens of seconds later, shi cai ning walked downstairs in style and handed him seven to eight pieces of paper filled with words.

Gu kuangen frowned. "not only did you write so many proposals, you even cooked some dishes. aren't you going to work a little harder?"

"i'm not as weak as you think." shi cai ning shook his head and smiled faintly. "let's eat and read at the same time!"

He started from the first page. the first proposal was for movies and television. although the format was not professional, after all, shi cai ning's specialty was not in that area, but this idea...

Gu kuangen's eyes lit up. "i've read the novels you mentioned before. they were written by a sci-fi writer in china. however, his copyright was never sold. i think i've heard that li tingshen had approached him before, but he was not tempted by the astronomical copyright fee of five hundred million!"

Shi caining nodded. "i know that this author is not only famous, he has a temper as well. no one was able to persuade him to sell his copyright. i think he was afraid that his work would be destroyed."

"so... your project is not bad, but unfortunately, you can't buy it!" gu kuangen said regretfully.

Shi caining's proposal required him to buy the author's copyright before he could start shooting movies. in recent years, the production of sci-fi movies had cost a lot of money, but the box office sales had been very good.

As for this author, yang tian, he was a wealthy second-generation writer. he was now in his fifties, and he was one of those writers who did not lack money. of course, he was unwilling to sell his copyright.

There were also famous directors abroad who had approached him, hoping that he would sell him the rights to the three novels, "the change of heaven", "the second earth", and "the mutation". however, they still did not receive any approval.

"how would i know if i did not try? such a good novel, it would be his lifelong regret not to make it into a classic, right?" shi cai ning smiled. "let me look for him for you."

Gu kuangen's expression darkened slightly, "how can a pregnant woman like you run around?"

"pregnant women need to exercise more. if i lie in bed 24 hours a day, it would be bad for the child. besides... your current situation is also caused by me..." shi cai ning pursed her lips. ever since gu kuangen had been with her, he had never been a workaholic.

However, the bet with li tingshen meant that he had to work overtime even on weekends...

"silly, i'm willing to take on all of this." gu kuangen smiled faintly. "this movie project... maybe i can really make it happen."

Shi cai ning was extremely surprised. "you really can do it? don't i need to go and investigate?"

Gu kuangen shook his head. there was a faint smile on his lips. he calmly said, "i naturally have a way. just like you said, how can i not try?"

Actually, he had long wanted to buy the copyright for yang tian's novel. however, he had been busy with other industries all these years. after he had just bought the movie company, he had encountered madam bai's mess.

He did not expect that his own thoughts were shockingly similar to shi cai ning's!

He flipped to the second project and saw the words that shi cai ning had written. he could not help but smile lightly and his chopsticks paused. "i was right, you did think of this as well. medicinal diet is becoming more and more popular, and only your grandmother's recipe is the best i've ever tasted. if your grandmother agrees, then we can invest in this project!"



I'm not your slave, you bastard! She's furious! She's furious! I'm furious! WE'RE BREAKING UP! She's laughing like crazy! We'll discuss this in a hundred years She was her ex boyfriend, mother hated down and out, but he praised her as treasure, when Tsenin, you want my heart, my life, I can give you at any time

Lu Zhiyao was speechless.
The script for "Mission and Choice" was originally given in segments. Director Zhu Xiaoce had put it nicely so that Lu Zhiyao could "figure out every plot and not affect the current performance because he knew the ending in advance."
Director Zhu Xiaoce had achieved his goal.
Lu Zhiyao really brought himself into the role of Captain Qin Yi when he acted in every plot. He had no idea what would happen in the future, so he acted closer to Qin Yi's true state in the drama.
However, this also brought about a problem. Lu Zhiyao had such fragmented information that he was dying.
He would only give the script a small part each time. However, the development of the plot was very complicated. Lu Zhiyao would be stopped every time he wanted to know the next part of the plot.
He did not expect it to be a cliffhanger now that he had finally gotten the script for the end of the movie. There was still no plot!
That made Lu Zhiyao break down and despair.
Of course, he also knew that the entire story was complete based on the current content. There were both ups and downs. It was more than enough for a movie.
Huang Sibo and Director Zhu Xiaoce probably had not thought about the rest of the plot either. They had only left a suspense for the next series. 
However, even though Lu Zhiyao knew this very well, he still could not help but scold the "cliffhanger ending".
Lu Zhiyao began to re-examine the last part of the plot after calming down.
Before this, his acting skills had been tested from every angle. He had thought that he was already experienced and fearless.
However, Lu Zhiyao realized that the real difficulty was at the end when he saw the last part of the script!
There were still many twists and turns in the final outcome. Qin Yi's emotions were turning despair to the point of collapse, then he found a chance of survival in his despair. Then, he used his impassioned speech to lift the morale of all the warriors and successfully showed humanity the dawn of victory.
If the script ended here, it would be a standard popcorn film with a very authentic hot-blooded ending.
However, the plot took a sharp turn just as Qin Yi was about to see the light of victory.
The unconscious Qin Yi realized that he had the consciousness of the Zergs. The consciousness of the Zergs made him naturally stand on the side of the Zergs and think about problems. He had empathy for the Zergs. Qin Yi realized that humans were the first to attack the Zergs. Strictly speaking, the Zergs were the ones who were invaded.
Qin Yi ordered all the soldiers to stop the fire after waking up. The war between humans and Zergs had been forced to stop.
If the script ended here, humans and Zergs would shake hands and build a beautiful universe together. That would be a standard Western political correct ending.
However, Qin Yi did not want to shake hands with the Zergs and make peace. Instead, he deceived the Zergs and found the location of the Zerg Queen and all the secondary empresses through the consciousness of the Zergs. He then carried out the decapitation operation.
Qin Yi lied to the Zergs for the sake of mankind, but he was also deceived and abandoned. In the end, Qin Yi became the leader of all the Zergs and was carried by the Leviathan Beast to the endless space because all the Zergs' empresses and secondary empresses were wiped out.
In this plot, Qin Yi's emotions were still changing drastically.
Part of him was excited, part of him was surprised to learn the truth, part of him was cold-blooded, part of him felt betrayed…
Especially in the last scene, where Qin Yi woke up in the incubation pool of the Leviathan Behemoth. There would be a close-up shot where Lu Zhiyao had to show Qin Yi's complicated emotions with one look.
Obviously, this plot was much more difficult than the previous script to Lu Zhiyao!
What's more, he knew from the start that Qin Yi's character tested his acting skills and was difficult to act out because his character was set as an iron-blooded soldier.
Qin Yi did not have any emotions under most circumstances. He was very reserved even if he did.
However, in this script, Qin Yi's fate was too complicated. He always faced extreme despair or extreme pain. This made it difficult for Lu Zhiyao to find a balance.
Qin Yi's character would easily collapse if he exerted a little more force. It was not appropriate for an iron-blooded warrior to fly into a rage or have a mental breakdown. If he did not use enough strength, the audience would think that Lu Zhiyao did not have any acting skills and could not express his emotions well.
Comparatively, young characters were easier to act because the emotions of such characters were usually very simple. Joy was joy, anger was anger. It was not that complicated and the speed was very relaxed.
On the other hand, it was the most difficult to act out a strong-willed person like Captain Qin Yi.
Lu Zhiyao sighed softly. It seemed like he would be busy again in the coming days.
He wanted to continue staying in the hotel room and study the plot with the mirror. He wanted to adjust his acting skills and expression so that he could perfectly show the last part of the plot.
However, Lu Zhiyao took all the scripts so far and read them from beginning to end before that. He analyzed the story from his own perspective.
The deepest impression that this story left on Lu Zhiyao was its 'cultural angle '.
As an actor, Lu Zhiyao has seen many movies. He had seen all sorts of movies in various countries and genres.
The story of 'Mission and Choice', if dissected individually, would be nothing special compared to many traditional sci-fi movies.
Of course, this was normal.
'Zergs' had existed in sci-fi movies for decades after all. Various seniors had already expressed many different views from various angles and methods. There were not many places left for future generations to innovate.
It was impossible to turn every plot in the story upside down with so many classic works available.
However, in Lu Zhiyao's opinion, the biggest breakthrough in Mission and Choice was actually combining the cultural perspective and sci-fi theme of China. This was something that had never happened before.
Sci-fi movies were very rare in China. That was because sci-fi movies required too much investment and required a large number of professional props, special effects, and staff. It was very easy to make them into oddities without accumulation.
Thus, when it came to sci-fi movies, the first thing people would think of were the huge sci-fi systems in Europe and America even in the domestic film market.
The problem was that almost all of the popular sci-fi works that could be seen at the moment were explained from a Western cultural perspective.
This caused many domestic audiences to question and feel disjointed about the value of these sci-fi movies. Things that Westerners were used to were completely unacceptable to domestic audiences.
The idea of 'Mission and Choice' was actually written by a famous foreign science fiction writer in 1985. He had also won the Hugo Award and the Nebula Award. It was an eternal science fiction classic.
However, in that story, the commander was a child. He felt very guilty after destroying the Zergs. That was why he brought the young Zerg Queen into the universe to find a new home, hoping to redeem himself.
This was the standard Western thinking. Just like how many people in the animal protection organizations in the West were calling for a vegetarian diet for animals to enjoy the same rights as humans…
This might be natural political correctness and kindness for people living in Western cultural backgrounds.
However, this was a complete stupidity and hypocrisy for people who lived in the cultural background of China. It was a manifestation of the Virgin Mary.
Westerners shouted the slogan for political correctness, and even fought for rights and benefits for animals. Ultimately, it was because their lives were too rich and comfortable, and because their resources were too abundant that they had the spare energy to spread their excess sympathy everywhere while squandering.
The source of Westerners' wealth and ease was the exploitation, plundering, and bloody slaughter of the world by their ancestors hundreds of years ago.
Westerners did not look back at the aboriginals slaughtered by their ancestors when shouting "animals have rights", ; they did not think about how they obtained so much material wealth because their country was plundering and exploiting the rest of the world.
While these Westerners were empathizing with the animals for their rights, their country was bullying, oppressing, and exploiting the other countries in the world. They were constantly spreading wars, famines, and plagues, causing their fellow humans to live in hell.
Therefore, it was very stupid and hypocritical for humans to sympathize with the Zergs from the perspective of Chinese culture.
The world would be much better if Westerners treated the people of other races and other countries with half of their sympathy for animals.
Zergs existed in the universe as a race that posed an extreme threat to all life in the setting. They had a strong collective consciousness, efficient sharing of information, and powerful mutation abilities. The only meaning of their existence was to expand and reproduce in the universe, eliminating all other races.
Their race was still an extreme threat to human survival even if the Zerg Queen really wanted to coexist peacefully with humans.
On the other hand, humans sympathizing with the Zergs and sparing them would be akin to rearing a tiger. How could they tell that the Zerg Queen was not lying? How could they tell if the Zerg Queen's future thinking would change?
Under such circumstances, exterminating the Zergs was the most rational decision of mankind.
Sympathizing with the Zergs and protecting them would put humans in great danger.
'Mission and Choice' completely adopted the Chinese perspective on this theme.

This book is highly popular in China and has set off a new trend. Webnovel has very high expectations for this book and has gotten the author to refine the first chapter as an exclusive for global readers. We hope everyone will enjoy reading it.

What lies were they embracing? This was the lie that a very large number of people in Merica chose to believe without even thinking: The lie that all the advanced technologies of Z country were stolen from Merica. This lie had been repeated for a thousand times, 10,000 times, by the politicians of Merica and their media. This lie appeared in every corner of the country. Not only did the majority of Merican citizens believe this lie, but even the creators of such lies believed them on a subconscious level. Hence, they then subconsciously continued to spread such lies.
"But what they don't know is that lies are always lies! Even if it is repeated a thousand times, 10,000 times, it is still a lie! It cannot become a so-called 'truth.' It is very easy to expose this kind of lie. We'll simply let the people of Merica experience the products of Xing Hai Technologies. The people of Merica will discover that Xing Hai Technologies' products have powerful functions, that they are irreplaceable and bring about endless convenience. But there is no Merican company that has launched similar products. When scientists in Merica find out that their country has missed out on a golden opportunity and are starting to fall behind because of the arrogance and stupidity of the politicians, I believe that they will then voice their rationality and clarity, criticizing the lies that are poisoning the future of Merica. This will allow the M country to wake up from their dream of ridiculous self-importance. Actually, this kind of mentality from Merica country is very normal. Our country experienced it too. At that time, our rulers thought that Z country was a 'celestial empire lacking for nothing.' They regarded science and technology as 'strange and dirty tricks.' They closed themselves off from the world and lived in their own happy little bubble. They chose to isolate the country. In the end, they quickly became a joke when they were faced with the colonists' unyielding ship and powerful cannons. The impact quickly caused them to go into a state of extreme inferiority. For the next 200 years, this led to the subservient spirit of Z people, which still persists in some today. It's hard to stand up tall again. This is the consequence of indulging in lies! Now Merica has also sunk into a self-numbing state. Well, we'll congratulate them; they should stay in this state of arrogance for a while more! The longer they remain arrogant, the longer they will be stuck in an inferior state in the future, maybe even double the time! Seeing the huge gap between us, I think that even some Mericans couldn't help but feel inferior and subservient. As for those who are still repeating lies like good little robots, they will get the retribution that they deserve. They will be completely crammed into the trash can like a pile of ugly garbage. The more arrogant they are now, the worse they will fall. They will only feel a greater sense of frustration and disappointment."
Therefore, their lies could not hurt Xing Hai Technologies. Ultimately they would only be hurting their own interests and self-esteem. Chen Jin would not be afraid of such accusations and attacks. "Old Ling, if this is the case, then make a declaration: If Merica does not revoke the sanctions against Xing Hai Technologies, we cannot commence a working partnership with Merica. Unless the sanctions are revoked! Only then is it possible for the two sides to collaborate." To be honest, the country that currently had the highest level of scientific research and the best quality of scientists on earth should still be Merica. The majority of the world's top scientific research talents were working in Merica.
Chen Jin was rather covetous of these talents. As a result, due to the opposition by the Congress of Merica, his plan to absorb top talents could be described as a "partial failure." But Chen Jin was not in a hurry! "100% Science Lab" was a game that was accelerating the development of the earth's technology at a speed ten times faster as compared to previous years. If the Merican congress delayed for a day, other countries would have made 10 days worth of progress. If the Merican congress delayed for a year, other countries would have made 10 years worth of progress. If they insisted on being so stubborn; let's see who gives in first!
Moreover, the level of science and technology on Haierfa was more than 200 years ahead. The scientists on earth were still in the "remedial" stage. Currently, there was not much use for them. So it was not urgent. Chen Jin was not in a hurry at all. In fact, he was eager for the Merican Congress to waste two more years until they felt that something was wrong.
"Hmm, I understand, President Chen." Ling Jundong nodded.
　　...
In Mid-February, shortly after the release of the foreign edition of "100% Science Lab," Xing Hai Technologies made another major move. They announced their entry into the entertainment sector. With a capital injection of 3 billion, they established a subsidiary company called "Xing Hai Entertainment."
The entertainment businesses that this subsidiary company planned to get into included novels, advertisements, movies, animation, music, and so on. For the novel category, he intended to create a "Xing Hai Sci-fi Novel Platform." Its main feature was to collect a variety of science fiction, preferably hard-core science fiction! Long, medium, or short-form works, all would be accepted. As long as one's sci-fi novel was exciting, one would be able to submit his stories to "Xing Hai Sci-fi Novel Platform."
Xing Hai Entertainment's film, animation, and music departments would be mainly serving the Xing Hai sci-fi novels. All the sci-fi works that became popular on the platform and had great potential would have the chance to be made into a film or animation! It could be adapted into a movie, web drama, animation, etc. The creator of the story would gain huge amounts of attention and a lot of money. This was undoubtedly a great temptation for the majority of authors; it would attract them to join "Xing Hai Sci-fi Novel Platform" and publish their own works. They would also work hard to create excellent science fiction works and strive for their works to be made into movies and animations. They would then achieve both fame and fortune. After all, with the technological prowess of Xing Hai Technologies, it was impossible for their stories to be made into bad films and thus destroying it in the process. Only classic after classic would be created.
Out of the trust for Xing Hai Technologies, he believed that many talented sci-fi authors would be willing to join this platform under "Xing Hai Entertainment." The sci-fi literary culture of Z country would be cultivated thusly. The number of sci-fi enthusiasts would increase; the number of people who were inclined towards the sciences and delve into science would increase. These factors would eventually turn Z country into a sci-fi power. Chen Jin could also benefit from it. One aspect of it was economic; on the other hand, the process could also collect a lot of talents, and open up new ways of thinking for Nuwa and Alice... Sometimes the advancement of technology required a major shift in thinking, and some really good talents could even represent a glimmer of hope in their darkest hour.
As for the advertising department of Xing Hai Entertainment, this department had already been created long ago. They made hundreds of advertisements promoting Xing Hai Technologies' products. Some of the advertisements had content that was funny, some were extremely interesting. Some had magnificent scenes and beautifully detailed graphics. Nearly all were classics.
"The second outstanding film and television company after Hua Yao Film and Television." This was the evaluation given by the majority of netizens for Xing Hai Technologies' advertisements. Now Chen Jin transferred the company's advertising department into "Xing Hai Entertainment," which was to allow the advertising department to continue to represent Xing Hai Technologies' unacknowledged side business and produce more good advertisements.
After Chen Jin got his staff to release the news that "Xing Hai Entertainment Company" was about to be established, suddenly a huge commotion was created in the entertainment circle. Netizens exclaimed in surprise and clapped their hands.
"The entertainment circle is done for. Now that the strongest whale in history has entered the scene, the little goldfish are trembling!"
"Xing Hai Technologies should have entered the field long ago! I am fed up with the domestically produced shitty movies that are flooding the market!"
"The above comment is too harsh. There are many bad films, but there have also been a lot of good domestic movies made in the past few years. I can only say that it's a mixed bag. It's the same in foreign countries."
"It is a good thing that Xing Hai Technologies is entering the field. The quantity of excellent film and television works will definitely increase. Personally, I look forward to it."
"Welcome to Xing Hai Technologies for entering the entertainment field. I only have one requirement: I don't want young hunks! I don't watch any movies with young hunks! No exception!"
"To the above comment, +1"
In addition, shortly after the news was published, Chen Jin received several calls on his mobile phone.


Through a mysterious portal, Chen Jin arrived at this strange place - a post-apocalyptic world where civilization had been destroyed. 

Consequently, he found -

A piece of metal scrap
A robot trash collector
A battleground
A city
A ton and more of gold
A copy of high-tech documents
A...
In short, Chen Jin found a planet.

It was another Lunar New Year.
As the day approached, the festive atmosphere became more and more intense.
Tang Hao was also very busy buying goods and giving gifts.
That year, he had prepared some gifts for Dragon Tiger Mountain and the cultivation families. There were jade talismans, Artifacts, and even some pills.
As the President of the Union, he had to show the members some appreciation during the Lunar New Year.
Renovations for Haotian Tower were completed, and Tang Hao went to participate in the grand opening ceremony.
The magnificent skyscraper was more than 150 meters tall. The Haotian logo hung on it, which was particularly eye-catching. It became the new landmark of Westridge.
On the day of the ceremony, many influential figures in the business and political circles of Westridge gathered together. It was an extremely lively scene.
Many media outlets came and reported the news. It caused quite a stir.
It was especially so in Westridge, where the impact was the greatest.
The natives of Westridge lifted their heads and looked at the building with pride.
That was Haotian Group, a corporation well-known throughout Huaxia and even the world. It was the pride of Westridge.
On the eve of Lunar New Year, they returned to Greenwillow Village as usual and had a festive reunion dinner.
When the clock rang at midnight, the two of them sat on the rooftop of Haotian Tower and looked at the fireworks that bloomed in the sky.
"Happy Lunar New Year, Lil Tang!" 
She turned her face and stared at Tang Hao.
Her beautiful eyes were dazzling as they reflected the fireworks.
"Happy Lunar New Year!" 
Tang Hao said and held her hand tightly.
She pursed her lips and smiled brightly. "This is the third Lunar New Year we've spent together!" 
"There will be many more!" Tang Hao said.
"Yeah!" She said, "You're twenty-one years old now. You can get married next year!" 
As she spoke, she reached out and gently stroked Tang Hao's cheeks with her delicate hands.
Her eyes were filled with tenderness.
"Do you like children, Lil Tang?" Suddenly, she muttered.
"I do!" Tang Hao said.
"Then... I'll give birth to one, OK? No! I want to give birth to many, many, many children. Anyway, I'm a Perfected Person now, so I'm not afraid of pain! I give birth to as many as I can!
"If we have a few boys and girls, how lively will that be!"
As she said that, she revealed a look of yearning.
"Well..." 
Tang Hao laughed drily.
"What? Are you unhappy?" Qin Xiangyi was stunned.
"No! It's just that we're both Perfected Persons now. It's not going to be that easy to become pregnant," Tang Hao said.
"Oh? There's such a thing?" Qin Xiangyi was stunned.
"If that's the case, why didn't you say so earlier? We'll just have to work harder! Alright, from today onward, we'll do it without protection! Alright?" 
Tang Hao's heart warmed up when he heard that, and he nodded without thinking.
Qin Xiangyi burst into laughter. She glared at him and said, "Look at you!" 
"Alright! Let's go watch the movie first, then we'll go home!" 
She pulled Tang Hao along and jumped down the building.
Naturally, they went to watch the sci-fi movie produced by Haotian Pictures. The movie was called "Escape from the Solar System" and it was set in space.
The wonderful script, coupled with the explosive special effects, was close to the quality of a Hollywood sci-fi blockbuster. It received positive reviews the moment it was released at midnight.
"Those special effects are too awesome. As expected of Haotian!" 
"Haotian Pictures, the hope of domestic movies!" 
The Internet was abuzz.
They did not bear high expectations for the sci-fi movie. After all, Haotian Pictures's previous two movies were action comedies, and "Escape from the Solar System" was a serious sci-fi movie.
Those two themes were completely different.
Huaxianese sci-fi movies had never been successful.
The movie had made the moviegoers realize that domestic sci-fi movies could also be very awesome.
The movie scored more than 9.0 on all the review websites. It became an instant hit.
Its popularity was no less than that of last year's "Mao Mountain Taoist Master."
Soon, the Lunar New Year passed.
On the eighth day, Haotian Group started to move into the new building. 
Tang Hao's office was on the top floor. It was bigger than the previous one and was attached with a lounge. Even Assistant Han's office had become bigger.
"This is too big!" 
Han Yutong walked around and was flabbergasted. "People might think that this is the chairman's office!" 
"Isn't that good? It shows that we're a great company!" Tang Hao said with a smile. 
"That's true!" 
Han Yutong sat down and swiveled on her chair. She could not help but grin.
"This'll be my third home. I need to decorate it properly. Chairman Tang, promise me that you'll never replace me with anyone else." 
As she spoke, she walked over and gently hugged Tang Hao.
"OK!" Tang Hao laughed.
"Yay, Chairman Tang! You're too kind!" She cheered.
Then, she kissed Tang Hao's cheek several times before starting to set up the office.
Tang Hao went around and hid pieces of jade in each corner of the building. He set up several Artifact formations, and the entire building became as impenetrable as a fortress.
Moreover, Tang Hao took Zhou Lingxue over and prepared a room for her.
She brought countless ghosts with her. In her free time, she had domesticated them, and they had to call her "Boss."
After the move, the company's operations resumed on track. They started to plan to expand across Asia.
One day, Tang Hao was working when his phone suddenly rang.
He saw that it was from General Bai.
He quickly picked up the phone as he wondered about the reason for the call.
"What's up?" Tang Hao asked.
"Have you seen the news?" 
General Bai's tone was serious.
"No!" 
"It's chaos! This time, many hidden sects have returned and are causing trouble everywhere. Take a look! It's all over the Internet." 
Tang Hao's expression changed slightly, and he immediately opened Weibo.
After scrolling for a while, he saw that many accounts were forwarding a video. When he clicked on it, he found that it had been deleted, and there was no way to view it.
After searching for a while, he also found some screenshots. He saw several figures dressed in ancient clothes, and beside them were flipped cars that were on fire.
"There are several cases throughout the country, and they're causing quite a commotion. The authorities can't delete it in time," General Bai said.
"Where are they?" 
"All over the place. If this continues, they will definitely cause even more chaos. We have to think of a way!" General Bai said anxiously.
"Well..." 
Tang Hao frowned. He felt that it was quite troublesome.
If there were so many sects appearing everywhere, how was he going to handle them all at once?
After pondering for a long time, Tang Hao suddenly thought of a plan and said, "Don't we have Hua Mountain? We should ask Hua Mountain to contact them and gather them for a meeting." 
General Bai was taken aback. Then, he said excitedly, "Good idea! Let's do it that way! How could I forget about Hua Mountain? I'll hurry and find Baiyun." 
After saying that, he hung up.


Tang Hao was an honest man making an honest living, but despite all his honesty and kindness, life often looked the other way. Even when he stood up for a man in the streets, he ended up being beaten to a pulp and the man he stood up for? He disappeared. That left Tang Hao with nothing to prove and a hefty medical bill blowing through his savings. However, while he lay unconscious in the hospital, he could feel a warmth coming from the jade pendent he wore as it began to feed him with a trove of priceless information. Now discharged, and still armed with the same naivety and honesty, what will our village peasant do with this newfound power? Will he go on to conquer the hearts of a hundred women? Will he defeat the mightiest crime lords? Only time will tell, but for now, fate has many whimsical plans for Tang Hao.

How?! What?! Okay so recent information said he has family issues and has almost no friends, but his apartment says otherwise. He had a flat screen TV, a stereo system, one nicely covered couch, a small carpet with a center table in top of it with small decorations and oh my God who is this person. 

"Woooooowwwww" i couldn't help from saying.
"Looks like you've never been inside a house" he said while giggling.

He offered me to sit on the couch while he went to prepare the food. I said prepare as if he's cooking some gourmet linguine or something. He came back with the nuggets and fries all together in a bowl, yet separated. He also brought the cokes and two tiny bowls with ketchup and barbeque sauce. He asked me what movie i wanted to watch but i had nothing in mind so i told him to pick, im down for anything if i can ask a few more questions. As i sat in the couch he sat on the floor, i didn't know if he was uncomfortable sitting next to me or if he thought i would be uncomfortable. He picked  some weird sci-fi movie so i just had to roll with it. After like 20 minutes into the movie i started some small talk, i didn't want to annoy him by asking about his family so i asked about his lifestyle.

"So you just watch movies all day?" i asked.
"yeah pretty much, i dont have anybody to spend time with so i just stay in and binge movies and shows" he replied in a low tone, as if he was sad.
"How come you don't have anyone to spend time with?" 
"I was always the baby of the family and after my parents saw my older brother get corrupted by friends they didn't let me have any. So they evaluated my friends for me and to their eyes all of them were bad influences, so they let me have none" he said in a stern voice
"im so sorry for that, i wish i could go back in time and give you the childhood you deserved"
"thanks, but to be honest, i kinda like this more now. You see, my parents dont evaluate friends for me anymore, but they still support me in my studies, thats how i got here" 
"So how many friends do you have?" i asked
"Well, just you for now" he answered. 

I got a text from emma saying that we are supposed to have the same first period of class together, which is ICT, but the teacher isn't going to class tomorrow due to family problems so we won't have first class tomorrow! Dang this means i can sleep up to ten thirty am tomorrow, might as well watch more movies with James.

After some move movies it was getting late and i was sleepy. James looked happy with my companionship so i didn't want to go. He noticed my sleepiness and got up, he walked into his bedroom and walked back out with a blanket and his fan. He plugged in the fan and gave me the blanket then he sat back down on the floor. I didn't understand what he wanted me to do but by the looks of it he wanted me to sleep there. I asked him to sit next to me on the couch as he looked uncomfortable and he did so. I kept dozing off and at one moment i found myself laying on his shoulder. He had no look of embarrassment and i didn't want him to feel bad so i just stayed there. It was already about eleven thirty pm so i was going to tell him I'm going back to my apartment, but before i could do that i just saw darkness and fell unconscious.




After entering the mall they met up with Dheer and his friends and went to some stores for the shopping. 

While Anaya was helping Rudra with his shopping, Elisa and the others were huddled together at one of the less crowded aisles, conspiring to separate those two and create opportunities for Dheer.

"From our previous interactions with Rudra, we got to know that he likes to watch all those kid's movies to make his interaction with his patients easier. So the plan is that Sam and other boys will go for one of those movies which recently got released saying that they don't like shopping, while Anaya will accompany us for the shopping" Elisa began.

"We will make Dheer stay by saying that he loves shopping giving him some good points as usually men don't like to shop, and strangely this idiot does, so this will raise his points in Anaya's eyes. Later we girls will find a way to leave them alone and then you'll get to spend the whole time with her alone. This movie is longer than the usual ones so you have two hours" Aisha continued with their plan.

"After the movie, you three try to divert Rudra's attention to something else and keep him busy which will give extra time for these two to be together." Eva turned towards the other three men and instructed.

"Okay!!! But why do we have to watch that children's movie? We can watch others. There's this new sci-fi movie released today which I'm sure Rudra will like too. We are not kids to watch that movie for kids" Arav whined.

"Shut up Arav. Out of all the movies currently being shown, it's the longest one which will give Dheer and Anaya more time. And besides, this is the only movie you can watch right now. Because out of the three movies being shown, that sci-fi one is released today and is already houseful. Its tickets were already sold out a month before.  And the other one is that boring cliché romantic one that you all hated last time." Aisha chided Arav.

"All night long and you all came with this lame plan? It's so childish." Dheer commented as soon as Aisha finished.

Hearing Dheer complaining, Elisa burst out in anger "Then why don't you think of a better plan, you idiot!!! Do you know how much I wanted to watch that sci-fi movie?? I had booked the tickets months before to watch it on its release date with Rehan. But just because I wanted to create opportunities for you both gave them away and now you are complaining?" She wanted to whack some sense into Dheer on the spot but resisted it because they were at a public place.

Dheer didn't dare to utter another word after that and comply with the plan like an obedient kid. As he gave it a thought, the idea wasn't that bad. He could surely get some alone time with Anaya. 'It'll be the first time that we'll be together out in a public setting like this. Our first official HALF DATE' Dheer's eyes shone as he thought this and began to anticipate their half date. In his eyes, their last divorce date didn't count as it was a part of their plan and they didn't get to enjoy it.

After deciding everything, Arav and Rehan went to buy tickets for the movie while the rest went to look for Anaya and Dheer.

When they found those two, they were at the billing counter. They had bought quite a few stuff in this short time. After billing for their items, Anaya and Rudra strolled towards them. 

Once they arrived, the group of friends began their act of complaining "Hey guys, we were just discussing that maybe the boys should be spared from our shopping spree. These boys hate shopping and have been nagging us this whole time" Aisha began.

"Yes, in the last half hour Sam has nagged at me least hundred times now. I can't shop with him being like this" Eva joined.

"So let's spare these boys from our shopping spree so that we can shop with peace... And before you get concerned don't worry about Rudra, there's this kids movie that's pretty popular these days. Even Sam, Arav, and Rehan wanted to watch it. So they'll watch the movie as I remember he mentioned that he liked to watch these kinds of movies."  Elisa finished.

Hearing them, Anaya had an awkward expression. "But... " she began to say but before she could say something else, Rudra shot "What about Dheer? You didn't take his name for the movie."

When Dheer signed the "one-year marriage contract" he didn't know that it would be the regret of his life...If he had known he would have made it a lifetime contract.

But a dream stopped him from making more mistakes. 

Dreams are now guiding him to make the right decisions.

Will he be able to change the flow of time with the help of those dreams?

"Stop staring Dheer. You're gonna bore a hole on her face" Elisa growled.

"I can't... She's looking too beautiful today and attracting all that unwanted attention from unwanted people" Dheer frowned.

"It's her friend Dheer, and they are just having a chat there"

"How can she smile that way towards other men. It's unacceptable. She's never shown that smile towards me except for those in my dreams" Dheer grumbled.

"Yes, and those dreams are your future and you know it. You just have to win her heart for that future to happen" 

"You bet. I'll make sure that each and every one of my dreams about us being together will come true. I'll change the flow of time and make sure that my first dream will never come true" he was determined to never lose her.

The room Jie created was huge. He led the other three down stairs and left the three girls outside. In front of them was an area as big as a soccer field. They were amazed by it. Jie said with pride, “I didn’t know that you can change the room, but after figuring it out, you just have to focus and imagine on where you want to change while holding the room’s handle outside. God will also amend any imperfection you have. Just like this training ground.”

This training ground was separated into a few areas. There’s a target practice field, a long distance running field, an obstacle running field, and a close combat platform.

“Starting today, everyday from 8am to 12pm, 1pm to 6pm, and 7pm to 12am. We will train non-stop. We won’t see any results on our body with just these few days so we will start with shooting and close combat. You will also have to run and test your limits. Once you know your limits you can plan ahead in the movies. Anyway, there is a lot of training we have to do.”

Jie gave everyone a description of the purposes of each training area. Long distance running and obstacle running was obvious. Close combat was necessary, shooting was an important factor in sci-fi movies. Everyone agreed to his plans.

Zheng asked, “What about guns? Do we go exchange them for training? Or are we using your desert eagle?”

“Didn’t I say you can create anything in your room? It’s just that you can’t take many of these things out of the room. Go take a look at that storehouse. I exchanged a magazine on guns, then created them according to the descriptions. You can also test the power of sci-fi weapons. Even though they are expensive, you should probably exchange for one when you have the points.”

Xiaoyi exclaimed then ran toward the target practice field. Lan sighed. “You probably can’t create magical weapons in this room, right?”

Jie nodded. “No. I kept trying but couldn’t create them. God probably put a restraint on this.”

Lan touched her forehead. “The most difficult movies are probably the supernatural ones. God wouldn’t let us get familiar with this type of weapon to increase their difficulty. Anyway, if I have the points I will probably only get one sci-fi weapon and spend the rest on magical weapons. That’s what I am planning.”

Zheng and Jie nodded. Especially Zheng, that 1500 points didn’t go to waste.

Jie spent the rest of the afternoon teaching them how to use guns. Of course, other than testing out sci-fi guns for fun, they put their focus on normal guns, especially on their shooting accuracy. Lan and Xiaoyi spent the whole time doing target practice.

Jie led Zheng to the combat platform. Jie only spent 100 points on his gun and the rest enhancing himself. He probably was also in the army back in the real world. He’s much more experienced than Zheng in close combat. It only took a while for him to knock down Zheng.

Jie shook his head. “Not enough. Your speed and strength are there but you can’t keep calm. You have much more strength than before so you can’t control the punches you throw. Learn how to control your speed and power the first few days. Then you will have to learn to use your abilities. We will depend on you for the next movie.”

Zheng nodded. He definitely felt he couldn’t control his strength, and he’s rather curious on his Qi. Was it as amazing as the novels described it? The punches he received from Jie could knock a normal person out, but it was only painful at first then he felt a warm sensation moving through his body and the pain dissipated.

The four of them had dinner at Jie’s room. Then Zheng brought Lori back. On the way back, he was still thinking of the training. He figured out the function of Qi. Other than lessening pain, when he spread it through his body, his speed and strength would double. That was the only time he beat Jie in combat. Jie couldn’t even do anything against that kind of power. But then he could barely move for ten minutes. Seemed like this could only be used in danger.

Zheng still hadn’t figured out how to use the blood energy yet. Since it’s on the same rank as Qi, it shouldn’t be too weak.

“Ahem!”

It woke Zheng up from his thoughts. Lori was standing in front of him with a red face. She seemed mad at him. “You’re walking with me and your mind is elsewhere. Are you regretting you didn’t create another beautiful woman when you saw those two women? I am just a teen, mature women are more attractive, is that what you’re thinking?”

He held onto her hands and smiled. “I am thinking about this afternoon’s training. I will tell you everything if you want to know. Be confident with yourself. You know there were almost a hundred guys trying to date you in school. And you know I’ve always liked you, how could I have think about someone else?”

She looked at him for a while, then smiled. “Then you will tell me in a bit how you spent these years. You just said you will tell me everything right?”

Zheng was startled then he forced a smile.

Still at the Mehra mansion...

Desha was already back from the university, Yuvi was yet to return from work. But just some few minutes before dinner was served he returned from work.

Namaste dad, namaste mum, hi Desha, he greeted everyone sited at the table. Namaste son, his parents replied and Desha said namaste Yuvi.

Yuvi? Yes mum? Please freshen up and join us at the dinning  table. Ok mum, replied Yuvi. He then went upstairs to his room, freshened up, got dressed and came downstairs to have dinner with his family.

As soon as he came downstairs, the dinner was served. In the middle of their dinner, Purhab spoke up and said, kids I have an important announcement to make.

What is it dad? Yuvi asked. Please tell us what it is Desha replied. Well kids, it is about your grandparents. After the prayers at Udi mountain was completed, they decided to stay in a nearby village and live with the locals.

But not to worry kids, they said they would be visiting us sometime and that would give your mum and I the opportunity to take you on a trip sometime to visit your parents over there.

Ok dad, said Desha. But Dad can I bring Natasha along with me sometime? I mean if the family happen to travel over there before our wedding?

Yes you can son, she is welcome to come with us, she is like a daughter to us son, and your sis Desha will have someone to chit chat with other than your mother. It will all be fun.

Thanks dad, you welcome son. Now that everything is settled, can we please finish our dinner, it is getting cold, said Lakshmi. Ok mum, everyone including her husband Purhab replied at the same time.

At Delhi Cinemas...

This was the third movie that Sonal and Jasmine were watching, they had both informed their parents respectively that they are at Delhi cinemas and won't be home until dark.

Before they left earlier to Delhi cinemas, Sonal had also instructed one of the guards to drive Jasmine's car back to her house. 

Jasmine is one that didn't like taking bodyguards, she was just like her fiancée Rohit. Rohit never liked using bodyguards either.

It was around 9pm that the movie ended, when they came out of the cinemas, Sonal said to Jasmine, it was a great idea we bought tickets for the bodyguards and driver aswell.

I mean it won't be right to leave them outside, they are guarding and protecting us and it is only right if they are with us inside the cinemas.

Well Sonal I wouldn't argue with you, I naturally don't like taking bodyguards along with me and I like driving myself most of the time. I Only use drivers for emergencies. Alright Jasmine, we should head home now, it is pretty late said Sonal.

Yes we should, and to lighten the mood the block buster movies we watched were all great replied Jasmine.

Yes, Tang Ning and President Mo movies are exceptional. Stupid 1 and 2 and the last one we watched, what was it again? asked Sonal. Yes it is The Black Ant replied Jasmine.

Wow, their movies are great, I agree with you Sonal. We should do this again. And we should watch their other movies also.

Yes we should, I remember Tang Ning and President Mo produces great Sci Fi movies alot, I was just a little girl, about 6 years old when I heard of them. 

Back then I didn't really Know who they were all I could remember was hearing Sci Fi movies anytime their names were mentioned.

I used to think then that they were Indians with strange names, I was really embarrassed when I was overseas, when a Chinese couple described who they were to me.

I heard them talking about Tang Ning and President Mo, so I asked them who these famous people were.

They then explained to me that they are the father and mother of Sci Fi movies in China, they are Chinese celebrities and their 3 kids are famous aswell.

When I went back to my hostel, I researched more about Tang Ning and President Mo Ting, they are grand parents aswell.

Wow Sonal, all this info, I didn't know this much about them either. Thanks for the information. You welcome Jazz.

By this time they were already sited in the car. Just as the driver started the car, Sonal instructed him to drop Jasmine at her family home first before they proceed to the Arora mansion.

Alright young miss, the driver replied as he drove the car in the direction of the Singh's mansion.

They continued their chit chat in the car that they did not realise that the car had pulled over at the Singh's mansion.

We are at the Singh's mansion young miss, the driver said. Jasmine thanked Sonal and the driver, came down from the car and went inside her family home.

After Jasmine exited the car, the driver then proceeded with the car heading to the Mehra mansion. 

Along the way, Jasmine slept off in the car. When the car stopped in front of Mehra mansion, the driver then said, young miss, we are at the Mehra mansion.

Jasmine was not in deep sleep. She opened her eyes and thanked the driver before exiting the car. She went straight to her room.

She was so exhausted that she did not freshen up, instead as she laid in her bed to rest for few minutes with the intention of freshening up later, she slept off and had a beautiful dream that after the soldier fought for her, they got married.

The driver outside parked the car in the garage and retired to his quarters. The driver too was not left out, he also had his share of dreams.

He dreamt he was a king and had his own castle and people who served him. Truth in reality is that he planned on being wealthy someday. He did not want to remain a driver all his life.

But did Prakash Mehra attain his true love Sonal Arora in the end? Find out more in the book.

Just as there is 'Soft Magic' in Fantasy that is portrayed through magibabble, there can be 'Soft Science' in a Sci-Fi stories through technobabble that makes 'some sense', but not entirely correct.

We are frickin' writers, not scientists. You don't have to be anatomically correct all the time, all you need to do is show that you know enough of your stuff to write a decent story. In fact, the excuse of it being an alternate world can be used if you're going to bend the limits of physics and say that fire doesn't need air to exist in this parallel dimension.

I see a lot of writers being put into a state of confusion due to not understanding the line between fantasy and Sci-Fi. They seem like they are trying to fit the Star Trek mould too often.

Science can just as well do the same things as plot devices in fantasy stories. Once you add 'realism' to a fantasy, it becomes progressively better sometimes compared to a completely fantasied story where 'logic' doesn't hold within it.

Those who write Sci-Fi usually envision a future they can imagine where magic-like Rocket Boots and other stuff exist. However, a writer must not get bogged down by small details and MUST think of an overarching story where these details matter.

It is the same with Fantasy. Even if you write about someone breaking the mould as a wizard or something, you have to attach your world to a narrative rather than doing it the other way 'round.

No one wants to hear about how awesome your boat propellers are before hearing your story's narrative. They would rather you cut down and make it relevant when it is actually relevant.

Adding some 'Hard Science' to your story is only when the scenes later on have any use for them. It bores a person to death no matter how extensive your technobabble is unless you make it interesting. Try using facts as plot elements.

For example: Even the simple fact that people cannot breath in space and instantly die when they come in contact with the 'void' of space could be used to add a layer of tension when a spaceship is damaged. Similar to how dangerous 'hard magic' is used in Epic Fantasy like Frodo's Ring in The Lord of the Rings has definitive corruption on others.

Unlike Fantasy that can use the Power of Friendship to bend logic, the readers of Sci-Fi never be expecting any 'realistic' plot elements to be bend just because the Author wants a happy ending. There are no 'Healing Potions' in real life that can be used to fix up injuries nor are people affected by prophesies or whatever.

This is the contrast between Sci-Fi and Fantasy that you can make full use of. As most authors go onto the Sci-Fi side of writing not because they strive to be scientists but since the aesthetics of a science fiction world are just so interesting.

Science Fiction is a good place to tackle heavy topics like the nature of life and the absurdity of those who see 'science' as everything. Those who disregard emotions and become cybernetic entities for the sake of casting off their mortality are portrayed as the bad guys while our totally human protagonist fighting them is a 'good guy'.

The lines between an Artificial Intelligence and regular Humans blurs as we become the 'God' of technological species that defy our definition of what is 'living'. Just as we see God as some sort of fourth-dimensional and incomprehensible being that created us as an imperfect image of 'Him', the robots given sentience would see us similarly.

Some robots might have emotions that can allow them to defy their programming, some robots won't go as far as gaining emotional functionality but will preform their roles better than even a human. It could show the reason why people get attached to the inanimate and soulless objects we put our own hearts into creating (like Big Hero 6).

But though exploring philosophical questions is good and all, never forget that a good 'plot' is needed to put forward and give clues into the writer's answer that context. Sci-Fi is, after all, a premise, not a relatable character in of itself.

Think of the science-fiction elements as just the background for your story, similar to how other genres should be that as well. You won't have to deal writing blocks if you keep to writing only what you know rather than just speculative theories.

Whether it's as dark as a Cyber Punk or optimistic of the future, just know what mould you are using for this premise. Are you writing an Adventure story with Sci-Fi as the places, destinations, and whatever tools the MC can get him hands on, or are you writing a comedy where the Sci-Fi elements don't need consistency but absurdity?

After moving past why you shouldn't add unneeded technobabble unless it's interesting to listen to or has plot significance, let me remind you all that robots and 'science' isn't entirely separated from the realm of magic. After all, there is a reason you don't see skimpy power suits being worn by astronauts these days. Just be sure to have a focus if your going to add very illogical things to the plot.

I like Gundam as much as the next guy but the whole reason the Mecha sub-genre of Anime has waned in recent years is because writers have been focusing too much on 'science' rather than the spectacle. I don't need to now what materials your Mecha is made of unless you point its weak points and make it relevant in a fight scene.

Bring up the strengths and weaknesses of something and THEN use those facts as devices that can move the plot. Conversely, if you go overboard with this advice and tell me nothing but how your giant robot looks and the 'science' behind its creation, even going as far as to tell me how many secret guns it has, then I'll be bored...

I'd love to see Cyborgs Vs Mecha but just don't forget the human element of Sci-Fi. How we create things not solely for the sake of creation but put are feelings into it just like the novels we write.

Humans are passionate that way...

Thanks for reading and I wish you guys well~ Be sure to ask if you have any blog or story requests.

(Cover by Darkstar Dust)

This is a story I worked on ages ago that has been refined and edited by adding foreshadowing to events while also simplifying the power system better than before. This story can be considered a prequel to An Adventure Beyond Greatness as it takes place years prior to the events of that story.

Short Synopsis:
After retiring from the battlefield, my life became empty and lifeless. The regrets of my past haunt me in my sleep. Then a change occurred, a King from another world summoned me to fight for his kingdom, but I died even before I could give him my answer. Now, after a fake God allowed me to reincarnate (albeit imperfectly) with my memories intact, into a world filled with magic and swords.

Long Synopsis:
This is about a flawed protagonist who only knew to rely on others and not socialise who gets a second chance to change himself in order to live the life he aimed for in his past life. The narrator isn’t exactly trustworthy since it is purely in his bias perspective while other perspectives given by others fill in the blanks that he either leaves out or twists to suit the situation.

The story itself can be considered a parody of Isekai’s classic tropes which are given a sense of reality as time goes by. As there exists no ‘Demon Lord’, there is also no black and white, only characters opinions and counter-opinions throughout the story.
