Chapter 670: Chapter 669: War Wolf Explodes in Popularity

East Third Ring Wanda Square in Zhonghai City.

Disguised and holding hands, Wang Hao and Bai Yaning sat in the cinema lobby, waiting for War Wolf to start.

Having just returned from Africa and been busy these past few days, the two of them finally had time to meet up. It must be said that the adage "one day apart feels like three years" wasn’t just a playful joke.

Having not seen each other for three or four months, and finally having the time, it really felt incredibly precious.

Of course, the only depressing thing was that instead of sneaking out for a date, four tag-alongs accompanied them—this time not only Wang Hao and Bai Yaning had come, but both of their parents had joined as well...

Wang Hao hung his head low, a look of despair on his face, "What happened to our world of two? What about kissing in the movie theater? If all of you follow, what’s the fun..."

Bai Yaning was also quite frustrated, "If you want to watch, just watch, why must you join the same session with us, really..."

Of course, in stark contrast to their moods, the couple Bai Haochen and Wang Hao’s parents were extremely jubilant!

"Ha ha, Brother Wang, your son is really something," Bai Haochen said cheerfully to Wang Hao’s dad, "I never thought this mischievous kid would actually make movies, and to good reviews at that; my circle of friends is almost being spammed."

Wang Hao’s dad modestly touched his hair and said modestly, "This naughty boy is always fooling around, nothing serious. If he ever bullies your Ningning, you just give him a good thrashing! Don’t be polite with me!"

Wang Hao: "..."

Dad, whose side are you on? You shouldn’t twist your arm outwards!

"Brother, you’re being too modest," Bai Haochen shook his head, "Honestly, I didn’t expect it to be this good either. Look at the people in this movie theater, all here for War Wolf. My friends each called me to say it’s a great movie, and I’m quite puzzled, is it really that good? You wouldn’t know, I had to pull some strings just to get these tickets, it’s nearly impossible to find any!"

"I was quite surprised too," Wang Hao’s dad shook his head, "These youngsters, instead of going to work on a weekday, are all running to watch a movie, I really can’t fathom their thoughts..."

Wang Hao: "..."

I don’t know what you’re thinking either...

While they were discussing this, a few people waiting for the show to start came over.

Clearly, this guy had no idea that right in front of him were the current head of the Bai family and his family...

"Are you guys here to watch War Wolf too?" asked the young man excitedly, "Let me tell you, this movie is really good. It’s my second time watching! Can’t get enough!"

"Oh?" Bai Haochen asked smilingly, "Is it really that good?"

"What? Would I lie to you?" the guy definitely shook his head, "But absolutely no spoilers, I need to watch it again, then I’m bringing my mom and dad too; it’s so thrilling!"

Bai Haochen and Wang Mingwang, Wang Hao’s dad, exchanged a look, both somewhat incredulous.

Was this movie really so good that these youngsters wanted to bring their parents to watch it too?

At the moment the entire hall was chaotic, almost everyone discussing War Wolf, and as for other movies, they were basically completely ignored.

Soon, a cinema staff member shouted loudly, "Gate eight for IMAX is now checking tickets, please present your tickets as you enter!"

Suddenly, whoosh, a group of at least a hundred people stood up and rushed toward the ticket check point.

"Brother, let’s go," actually with Bai Haochen’s status, monopolizing a theater was as easy as blowing off dust, but after all, watching a movie is more fun with others, so he specifically joined this general public for some shared enjoyment.

Wang Hao slumped his head, "Third wheel... third wheel..."

Ticket checking, entry.

Finally, the lights in the auditorium dimmed, and the movie was about to begin.

Everyone put on their 3D glasses, waiting to enjoy this movie that had nearly spammed their social networks.

Music sounded, and the screen gradually lit up.

It was a vast sea, two speedboats racing towards it.

"Pirates! Pirates! Implement emergency measures!"

The crew on deck yelled frantically, but the pirates had already cast their fishing nets into the sea, instantly mooring the cargo ship!

"Da da da!" The sound of pirates firing was incessant, with crew members getting shot to death intermittently.

Just then, a figure in white—Wang Hao appeared on deck, jumping into the water with an extremely graceful posture!

"Splash!" A splash of water rose, and Wang Hao, portraying Leng Feng, was like a fish in the water; in just a few breaths, he had overturned the pirates’ boats, and then began an underwater battle with the pirates!

The whole audience cheered, "Well done!" "So cool!" "This scene is great!"

To ordinary viewers, this segment of the film was simply enjoyable to watch, but Bai Haochen’s eyes were already wide with astonishment!

"This... is this a one-shot filming technique?!" Bai Haochen gasped with his mouth wide open, "Isn’t that too demanding?!"

"A one-shot? What’s that?" Wang Hao’s dad, not being professional, asked curiously, "Is there a problem with this filming technique?"

"The meaning of one-shot," Bai Haochen explained breathlessly, "is that this entire underwater scene was shot in one go by Wang Hao without a break to breathe! That’s nearly three minutes of underwater fighting! How did he manage that?!"

The widely experienced Bai Haochen was astounded.

After all, it was an underwater fight, not just holding breath underwater!

Holding your breath underwater without moving, lasting three minutes is doable for many. But underwater, holding breath while fighting...

How many in the world can do that?

"Oh, so that’s what it was," Wang Mingwang nodded, then smacked Wang Hao on the head who was sitting in front of him, "You little rascal, if you play like this again, watch out, I’ll smack you! That’s terrifying!"

Wang Hao: "..."

Don’t you realize you’re glowing all over right now, dad?!

His smack wasn’t a big deal, but then the audience nearby couldn’t stand it: "Can you keep it down? Do you think he’s Brother Hao who can stay underwater for three minutes?! With his tiny frame, I bet he’d pass out after a minute!"

Wang Hao: "..."

Bai Yaning: "..."

Wang Hao’s dad: "..."

Bai Haochen: "..."

"Yes, yes, let’s watch the movie," Wang Hao’s dad quickly responded, "I’m so sorry, so sorry!"

The viewer snorted, "That’s more like it. Brother Hao is my idol; don’t you dare compare just anyone to him!"

Everyone: "..."

What’s with this feeling of desperately wanting to laugh but not daring to?

At that moment in the movie, Wang Hao had picked up a sniper rifle, then everyone saw a golden bullet flying out, headed straight for their noses! Many in the audience screamed in fright!

Just then, the camera angle shifted, and with a bang, the bullet shot into the screen, followed by two large characters appearing on the screen!

War Wolf!

The entire audience was stunned!

Bai Haochen was shocked: "This..."

Wang Hao’s dad exclaimed, "You little rascal sure know how to spice things up!"

The entire audience gasped: "Can we really make such good special effects now?! It looks amazing!"

Bai Yaning gasped, "You scoundrel, you shot that scene really well!"

Wang Hao chuckled, "Of course, how else could I have tricked a big star like you?"

"You little mischief!" Bai Yaning reached out with her delicate hand, pinched a small piece of flesh on Wang Hao’s arm, and gently twisted it—refreshing!

By this time, just the opening scene had already shocked everyone. No one had expected that Wang Hao, who was directing a movie for the first time according to legend, could create something so impressive!

It had surpassed Hollywood standards! A hundred times better than that Three Lives of Love!

Just one opening scene had captured everyone’s attention.

And soon, everyone would know that this was just the beginning!

The scene shifted back.

In a nameless small village, a demolition team was forcibly tearing down civilian houses. And that house belonged to a military man!

When that old lady cried, "I can’t let my child come back and not find his home," everyone in the audience burst into tears!

"This guy..." Bai Haochen sighed, then wiped the corner of his eyes, "He really is ruthless, able to shoot this..."

Soon, Leng Feng, played by Wang Hao, led a team of four soldiers into view!

Wang Hao was holding an urn.

His face was resolute, but tears were in his eyes.

"Charge!" the gang leader ordered, and thirty-odd thugs, armed with weapons, charged forward!

Then the scene quickly advanced, with the four soldiers led by Wang Hao neatly defeating all thirty men in ten seconds!

In War Wolf 2 of the past life, this scene wasn’t shown, but in this world, Wang Hao had no such concerns!

With his current ability, shooting this scene was not a problem at all, it flowed like water and had the audience shouting in excitement!

"Great!" the whole audience cheered, "That’s what I call an action movie!" "Exactly! Exciting!"

Soon, the police arrived, Brother Dao, playing the gang leader with a sleazy expression, smugly said: "You think you can fight? You’ll have to leave someday, right? Just wait and see how I kill them all!"

That brief line, a single shot, already made the audience itch with hatred.

And then, unexpectedly yet logically, Wang Hao kicked the gang leader so hard that he might as well have been sent back for reincarnation!

The entire hall went silent!

After a brief quiet, what followed was a mad round of applause!

"Beautifully done! That’s how you do it!"

"So cool! Exciting!"

Bai Yaning tightly held Wang Hao’s hand.

Because she knew that if anything happened to her, Wang Hao would do the same for her.

Even Bai Haochen, gripped the armrest tightly, exclaimed, "The Yangtze River’s new waves push the old waves forward! Our Heavenly People’s Republic’s cinema is saved!"
