Chapter 427 The Allure of Retro Horror Films

Two hours later, when the first group of moviegoers came out, some of them had weak legs.

The females, in particular, were all trembling as they were held in the arms of their partners.

Jiang Qin only watched the beginning and didn't watch the rest. After all, she was pregnant and it was better not to do anything so exciting.

She'd already seen the unprocessed version once, so she figured she wouldn't watch the processed version with added special effects.

People who couldn't buy movie tickets started tagging the film critics on the StarNet website.

[Hey, have you finished watching the movie? Hurry up and write a review, we're all waiting to see it!]
[Seriously, how can you guys sleep at such a young age? Get up and make some money!]
[Anyone who's seen the movie can share their thoughts on whether it was good or not? I'm getting impatient!]
[The first batch of viewers have responded. I can only say it was amazing, so amazing it made me cry. Many people were so stunned when they came out they could barely stand.]
[Really?]
[Seriously, I can only say it's incredibly moving; everyone absolutely has to see it!]
[Is it like *Strange Tales from a Chinese Studio*, a story about a love affair between a human and a ghost?]
[That's right, that's right, just go and see it.]
[After watching it, I have a feeling I'll be sleepless for many days.]
Because so many people on the StarNet were shouting "It's so good! It's so good!", it aroused everyone's curiosity.

If this is so beautiful it makes you cry, then it must be incredibly beautiful!
Soon, the second group of moviegoers entered the theater, and then staggered out again.

He also posted on StarNet: "[I suggest everyone not miss this film, go see it in theaters!!]"
[Yes, it's really amazing! After watching it, my riot level dropped by 2%.]
After all, those trembling females had no control over their mental bodies; they were all concentrated together.

Especially those who are bad at watching but love it.

I was completely absorbed in the film, constantly on guard against any sudden terrifying scenes.

They probably didn't even realize that the focus that their mentor had been teaching them, which they had always struggled to achieve, was suddenly achieved because of a single film.

……

[Are you kidding me? What does watching a movie have to do with riot points?]
[You'll see when you get there. I suggest you invite a few more females along.]
[Hehe, that's perfect, I just bought ten tickets anyway, I was planning to invite the females along.]
Enjoy the movie!
As fans of Jiang Qin, Wen Xueli and others naturally went as well.

Moreover, the group admin of their fan group directly booked an online movie theater and invited the big fans from various fan groups to watch it.

So now I've set my sights on The Night of Return of the Soul.

What's outrageous is that they were even scared so much that their spirits came out online.

Who understands this feeling? In the most terrifying moment, you realize that your foot has been touched by something icy cold.

Just when I was about to be scared out of my wits, I looked down and, lo and behold... it was my own cowardly spiritual self.

For the first time, the fans who watched the video were so quiet in the group chat.

This left the fans who had been waiting for news completely bewildered.

[Weren't you supposed to be watching a movie? Why isn't anyone saying anything?]
[Two hours have passed, you should have finished watching by now, right?]
[What's going on? Is the movie so bad that nobody knows what to say? Or is it just too good, and we haven't recovered yet?]
[Actually, it doesn't matter if it's not good-looking or not, we'll still buy tickets to support Qinbao no matter what.]
[Absolutely! Compared to others, Qinbao is truly a breath of fresh air in the entertainment industry. She never needs us to do data analysis, nor does she need us to support her merchandise endorsements or anything like that, and we've never arranged any fan support activities.]
In short, being Jiang Qin's fan is incredibly cost-effective.

The only expenses were the cost of downloading songs, subscribing to TV series on demand, and buying movie tickets.

However, they felt that this matter could not be attributed to Jiang Qin.

Because this is the money they paid for their own entertainment.

They will spend money on these works, regardless of who the original artist is, because they genuinely like them.

So they felt that only things like paying for a movie ticket to see the film but not actually watching it counted as spending money on Jiang Qin. And also things like spending money on products she endorses that they don't need, but just to make her data look better and to keep her happy—that also counted as spending money on her.

But Jiang Qin didn't have any of these things.

Forget about renting out the entire theater; without connections, power, and lightning-fast reflexes, it's difficult to even snag a ticket.

As for endorsements, we haven't seen her film any commercials yet.

However, they didn't ask why Jiang Qin hadn't filmed any commercials; she probably had her own reasons.

Given her popularity, she should be in high demand by brands.

...

After calming herself down, Wen Xueli replied in the group chat: [I suggest everyone watch it, because after watching it you won't feel lonely anymore.]
[Why? Is it a heartwarming story?]
With a wistful expression, Wen Jiaqi murmured, "[Because after reading this, you'll feel like there are people in the hallway, in the elevator, in the bathroom, and maybe even under your bed.]"
Group members: ...Okay, that's a terrible description.

A description I could never have imagined!
[Anyway, everyone should go watch it now! We won't spoil anything, spoilers ruin the fun.]
[Yeah, hehe, I managed to snag online tickets for a midnight showing.]
Wen Jiaqi: [Midnight show? Good luck, friend.]
Wen Xueli: [I suggest watching this with a robot butler.]
This allows for emergency medical assistance from robots if someone is frightened and faints.

Long Yue also managed to snag a ticket for a midnight showing.

Of course, the main reason was that she wanted to watch it late at night, since she sleeps during the day and her nightlife is at night.

Otherwise, as a princess of the imperial family, she could easily have any movie theaters vying to book out entire theaters for her for free, simply by making such a statement.

Soon, the movie began.

In order to enjoy the movie in peace, she didn't even invite her partner.

Alone, I went up to the top floor of the villa to watch the movie.

As the film progresses, the plot has reached the night when the couple who killed their own mother and mother-in-law return to the world together.

Long Yue's hands were starting to tremble slightly.

I couldn't even eat the cookies in my mouth anymore, and I kept getting startled.

She was a little scared, but felt it was still within her tolerance level. Mainly, she thought it was really exciting and so good to watch.

This kind of retro-style horror movie is much more interesting than those gory monsters.

Every day they film either giant deep-sea pythons or strange creatures, or underwater monsters, and then it's always the same old story of males protecting females as they retreat.

In the end, most of the male members of the main group died, leaving only the female lead and one or two male leads who survived and began to kiss and entwine sweetly...

They could put an Easter egg at the end, like an egg in the deep sea or a miniature giant monster, and then make a sequel.

A vengeful beast cub!
