Chapter 270: Chapter 270: Simply overwhelming! Chapter 270: Chapter 270: Simply overwhelming! Of course, since no one knew she was the big star Lan Zihuang, she got a bit upset and closed the Dragon Mountain Forum and sent a message directly to Wang Hao—
Purple Phoenix: “Dou Dou, it’s already half past eleven at night. In half an hour, ‘Break the Heavens’ will officially be released!”
Wang Ritian: “Thanks for your concern, I guarantee there won’t be any problems!”
Purple Phoenix: “Could you, maybe, update a bit more? I really love reading your book.”
Wang Ritian: “Huh? Update more? I’m afraid that’s not going to work. The editor told me that bursting out four to six chapters on the first day is about right, so I’m planning to release six chapters since everyone is supporting me so much.”
Purple Phoenix: “That’s so few… Dou Dou, my dear Dou Dou, it’s release day, couldn’t you post more? How about eight chapters?”
Wang Ritian: “That’s going to be… tough!”
“Stingy!” Lan Zihuang said pouting, her teeth itching with annoyance: “Two chapters a day is simply not enough…”
But as angry as she was, Lan Zihuang continued to act coquettishly—
Purple Phoenix: “Good Dou Dou, please update two more chapters, look at this ten-million alliance I’ve prepared. A Golden Alliance, oh! No one on the Heavenly People’s Republic’s literary site has this! You’re the only one!”
Wang Ritian: “Well… I’m worried about running out of chapters in store if something happens to me…”
Purple Phoenix: “Just one chapter! Just one more chapter and I’ll agree to one of your requests! You know what I mean!”
Wang Ritian: “I really can’t do this, don’t rush. How about I see later, okay?”
Purple Phoenix: “Yes, yes, you must update one more chapter! I’ll definitely satisfy one of your requests then, hehe!”
“You little thing, are you intrigued now?” Lan Zihuang smirked, hardly believing this couldn’t lure him.
Wang Ritian: “Sweat, I’ll try, I’ll try.”
Soon, the clock struck midnight and Lan Zihuang cheered, “It’s on the shelves! Go refresh and check out the new updates!” She said as she began refreshing. But since there was a delay in uploading chapters, she casually asked—
Purple Phoenix: “By the way, have you written the release statement?”
Wang Ritian: “Ah?! I forgot the release statement! I’ll go write it now!”
Purple Phoenix: “Good heavens! Can you even forget that?! Go write ittttt!”
Across the computer, Wang Hao: “…”
It’s just a release statement, a piece of cake for me, right? He immediately uploaded three chapters and scheduled the remaining three for six in the evening. Afterwards, Wang Hao tapped on the keyboard and wrote what could be considered the simplest release statement in the history of Heavenly People’s Republic’s web novels.
Content: “Request for subscriptions, request for monthly tickets!”
Eight characters in total when combining the book name and content, plus three punctuation marks.
Upon seeing the release statement Wang Hao had written, Lan Zihuang cried and fainted in the bathroom—This jerk! Who writes a release statement like that?!
Never mind, reading the book is what’s important right now!
Lan Zihuang hurriedly started reading the updated chapters. After reading them all, Lan Zihuang smacked her forehead: “Oh no, oh no, I forgot to tip! Those chapters were so addictive, Golden Alliance, here I come!”
She then returned to the ‘Break the Heavens’ page, only to be stunned!
The entire comment section was filled with highlighted posts from Alliance Hierarchs!
[Tipped] Sky-high praise, moved to tears, a gentleman’s talent deserves this reward!
Long Yi tipped 100,000 Wind and Cloud coins, This book is written so well, rewarding you hoping for more brilliance!
[Tipped] Sky-high praise, moved to tears, a gentleman’s talent deserves this reward!
Qiangwei tipped 100,000 Wind and Cloud coins oh this book is written so well, rewarding you hoping for more brilliance…
Seeing such tips covered the whole page, and then the tips from the Silver Alliance appeared right below—
[Tipped] Overwhelmingly thrilled, wish we had met sooner, a million is huge, yet hardly expresses my delight!
Ren Xing tipped 1,000,000 Wind and Cloud coins the story is amazing! My friends and I are all shocked! Here’s my million, keep up the great work!
“Darn, these guys are too quick!” Lan Zihuang smacked her forehead, lucky I thought of the Golden Alliance, definitely no one can snatch that, humph!
With that thought, she immediately clicked on the tip page—
[Tip] Poignant, overwhelmed with emotions, a thousand-gold splendid pen, lending elegance to Mr. Wang’s pen and ink!
Purple Phoenix tipped 10,000,000 Heavenly Coins to “Break the Heavens” and I am utterly stunned at this moment! This book is so amazing that I’m at a loss for words! Bro, you rock!
Once the tipping message was sent out, Dragon Mountain Forum exploded in an instant!
“Damn, look at ‘Break the Heavens’! It’s reached the Golden Alliance!”
“Terrifying, a Golden Alliance! 100,000 RMB! Damn!”
“Is anyone keeping track of how many subscriptions ‘Break the Heavens’ has now?!”
The writers of Dragon Mountain went completely wild!
Purple Phoenix: “Hehe, who was it that just mentioned aiming for a billion? Don’t hesitate, join in now! I’ll match whatever you tip!”
Crowd at Dragon Mountain: “Phoenix Boss is mighty!”
“This bunch,” Purple Phoenix chuckled and logged out of the forum, then directly joined their group chat—
Purple Phoenix: “My minions, the Golden Alliance is here, come out and greet us!”
Long Yi: “Phoenix Boss is mighty!”
Qiangwei: “Phoenix Boss, you are incredible! It’s really the Golden Alliance!”
Ren Xing: “I’m on my knees!”
Laughing Heavenly Envoy: “Feeling quite hurt here…”
Purple Phoenix: “My dear subjects, rise—where are your monthly tickets? Cast them quickly! I’ve already cast a thousand!”
Long Yi: “Yes, indeed, we must take first place in monthly tickets this month!”
With Lan Zihuang rallying the Golden Alliance, the monthly tickets for “Break the Heavens” ran wild like unleashed dogs, leaving the writers and readers of Dragon Mountain dumbfounded—
“‘Break the Heavens’ is so cool, every refresh brings in dozens of tips! The monthly tickets are coming down like snow!”
“We’re first in the overall monthly ticket ranking! Twice as much as the second place!”
“Damn, how many initial subscriptions does this make!”
Speaking of book subscriptions, someone quickly posted a thread—
“‘Break the Heavens’: 6,000 subscriptions within the first hour of launch!”
This post shocked the entire forum!
6,000 subscriptions in one hour, what does that imply? Generally speaking, the 24-hour subscriptions are roughly four times the first hour, so does this mean ‘Break the Heavens’ could reach 24,000 initial subscriptions in 24 hours?!
“Guys, no more words needed, let’s start cranking out the good-for-nothing old grandpa divorce plot! Anyone else following this trend?”
“Jump on the trend early, start now and at least you’ll get a sip of the soup!”
“Cut it out, you’re too weak! I started following the trend ten days ago, now I’ve already posted over 60,000 words and my collection has surpassed 3,000!”
“Why didn’t I think of following the trend earlier, I’m crying!”
Inside the VIP reader group of ‘Break the Heavens’.
Purple Phoenix: “Keep it up! Keep it up! Continue everybody! Don’t hold back on those monthly tickets, we must establish the biggest lead right away!”
Long Yi: “Absolutely, I’m going in with another Alliance Hierarch!”
Ren Xing: “Here goes another Million Alliance!”
The crowd: “We kneel before the big spenders!”
On the launch day of ‘Break the Heavens,’ Lan Zihuang fought a whole night through! It wasn’t until 7 a.m. that she finally stretched lazily: “Ah, today’s battle was just too exhilarating, utterly overwhelming!”
Just as she was feeling proud, a knock on the door was followed by a woman’s voice: “Miss Lan, Director Zhou would like you to discuss the script further…”
Lan Zihuang flung a pillow that way: “I’m sleeping! Tell him to figure it out himself! Don’t bother me with everything!”
Seeing that Lan Zihuang had not agreed again, Director Zhou and a few others standing near the door exchanged looks and shook their heads.
There were four people here today to invite Lan Zihuang to discuss the script.
One was the assistant director of the crew, Zhou Guangrong, a hefty man dressed in a suit full of pockets, nicknamed Zhou Mandou. Another was the screenwriter Hou Yu, a burly man standing at 185 cm with a full beard. The remaining two were just ordinary gofers, with basically no chance to voice their opinions.
“Director Zhou,” the bearded burly man Hou Yu said despondently as they walked: “I’ve been a screenwriter for a good while now, but this is the first time I’ve encountered someone so diva-like. This sure is an eye-opener.”
