Brother Dao Took the Entertainment Industry by Storm, Fans Beg Me Not to Kill Anymore

Chapter 466: The Audience Begs for a Second Viewing—Driven Mad by the Lack of Answers!

The public screening of ”No Bait” was undoubtedly a tremendous success.

From his own perspective as an audience member, Xiao He thought ”No Bait” was excellent, and naturally, the others who watched it on-site felt the same way.

The most direct evidence was that when Xiao He attended the first public screening ceremony with the rest of the production team, the media members who had just finished watching ”No Bait” showed no particular reaction upon seeing Ding Wanyu. Instead, they were scrambling to ask questions, and those questions were almost entirely related to the plot of ”No Bait.”

This was the first time they encountered a situation where the discussion was so purely focused on the story itself.

In the past, there would always be people chasing stars on-site or showing concern for the actors or director. But at this moment, everyone was too preoccupied with other matters, eagerly wanting to get the final answer from the production team to see if their guesses were correct.

Questions like ”Did Shu Yuxiu lie from beginning to end?” and ”Did Shu Yuxiu really kill his wife?” appeared with the highest frequency.

To be honest, even Xiao He was somewhat confused by the directorʼs multiple script layers. After all, what he performed was one thing, but after Ning Jiaqiʼs editing, it seemed to be a different story. So, even as the lead actor himself, he couldnʼt fully distinguish which parts of what Shu Yuxiu said throughout the entire film were true and which were false.

Of course, as someone whose persona was highly synchronized with Shu Yuxiuʼs, Xiao He could probably guess the answer—but why would he say it?

If he explained it clearly, how could he trick these people into going for a second or third viewing?

Box office! The box office needs to soar!
It wasnʼt just Xiao He who thought this way; even Director Ning shared the same sentiment. With a smile on his face, he put on an enigmatic expression and said to everyone, ”The story is interpreted differently by each viewer; everyone will have their own understanding. I believe all the answers are already hidden within the film. Everyone can take a closer look and dig a little deeper.”

How to dig deeper? Start with a second viewing!

Regarding the questions everyone was curious about, Director Ningʼs main strategy was to read them but not reply.

As for the lead actor, Xiao He, he naturally just smiled along and avoided the topic.

In the end, the media really had no tricks left.

The smart ones had already started booking tickets for a second viewing, planning to immerse themselves in the film again later.

The less clever ones, slightly dissatisfied, chose to find new topics—

”My question is for Teacher Ding.”

The media person holding the microphone looked at Ding Wanyu beside Xiao He.

”Teacher Ding, may I ask why you chose to take on the script for ʼNo Baitʼ back then? Was it because the female lead role in ʼNo Baitʼ is similar to your own experiences?”

As soon this highly presumptuous topic was raised, the screening hall fell silent for a moment.

Everyone turned around, looking at the person who asked the question with complex expressions.

Seriously, how dare someone ask such a provocative question directly?

Currently, the internet is still discussing the matter between Ding Wanyu and Sun Yuyang!

Though, of course, the discussion focuses more on Sun Yuyang, since yesterday Sun Yuyang was confirmed to have been gambling, and the police have officially launched an investigation. This is indeed a very important news topic.

But—is the movie not good enough? Or are there not enough topics today?

Why ask such a question!

Upon closer inspection, it turned out to be a marketing account team from a company in Beijing.

Everyoneʼs expressions varied.

They hadnʼt expected that side to still be unwilling to give up, even sending people to stir up trouble at this event.

They really have no sense of decency left.

Facing this sharp inquiry, Ding Wanyu didnʼt even blink; her heart was no longer vulnerable to such questions. The host beside her, however, looked a bit more serious, tentatively gauging the reactions of the people around her, ready to step in and save the situation at any moment.

Fortunately, Ding Wanyu had anticipated this question long before she took the stage.
