Ou Beichen’s expression was extrely grim.
"Alright, life is full of uncertainties. Little Jin’er has always been blessed with good fortune; nothing will happen. You can leave now."
He dismissed him but stayed in the study alone the entire night.
He... perhaps he was getting old, prone to lancholy. Just the re possibility was enough to make him lose his composure.
At his age, his body was slowly starting to show signs of wear. In theory, he should have taken life and death lightly by now. However, he seed to only be indifferent toward his own life and death.
If sothing happened to Little Jin’er...
Just the thought of it made him restless and uneasy.
The situation might be worse than he initially imagined.
Little Jin’er, the one who brought so much warmth to his twilight years—if sothing really happened...
That kind of pain couldn’t be described as anything less than gut-wrenching.
The atmosphere at ho had remained sowhat dreary due to Qin Miaomiao’s health, but—
The release of *Darkness* brought quite a bit of good news.
With a screen share of 40%, its box office revenue in the first three days wasn’t particularly dazzling: fifty million, sixty million, and eighty million respectively.
However, this wasn’t so blockbuster production. Although a significant amount of money had indeed been spent on it, every cent had been put to good use.
The intricacy of the story stood up to scrutiny, and the multiple twists provided ample room for imagination, especially with Rong Lan’s performance.
It was nothing short of a career peak!
Two personalities—one harmless and gentle, the other dark and evil—exuded unparalleled charisma without the slightest bit of artificiality.
Everyone who watched the movie was completely captivated by him, so even becoming his hardcore fans.
The story had no loopholes, leaving plenty of foreshadowing that attracted mystery enthusiasts to endlessly analyze it. Even the movie’s ending provided no definitive answer.
This led to even more spine-chilling retrospection, to the point where many viewers felt compelled to watch it multiple tis.
Three days in, word-of-mouth spread like wildfire, with viral-like intensity. Of course, credit was also due to the editor-in-chief’s masterful cuts.
Director Zhao’s filming was already remarkable, but the post-production edits and enhancents elevated the movie’s watchability to an entirely new level!
By the twelfth day of its release, it had exceeded one billion yuan in box office revenue!
It beca the final blockbuster of the year.
Unlike the other big hits that year, it wasn’t a cody or a VFX-driven spectacle—just a suspense thriller.
Yet this psychological thriller managed to achieve such astounding box office success!
Without a doubt, its genre was elevated to new heights even abroad. At the very least, the market proved that as long as the film was quality work, no matter the genre, it had the potential to blow up!
And Qin Miaomiao, through this film, firmly established her position as a master of suspense cinema.
As for Rong Lan, this movie elevated him to godlike status!
Although he never acted again after this film, leaving countless fans with the greatest regret in their hearts.
Still, this movie beca the crowning achievent for both Qin Miaomiao and Rong Lan.
As for Mo Wenwan’s work?
Well, she just made a TV drama, which ultimately only stread online. Even with inflated view counts, it barely made a ripple.
Sotis, these things co down to luck, but they also rely heavily on talent.
At the year’s end, major film festivals and awards ceremonies extended olive branches to both Qin Miaomiao and Lu Qing.
But neither attended.
