Chapter 1178. Are You That Confident?
On the day that ‘The Ant Queen 2’s’ filming finally wrapped up, not only did the cast and crew celebrate, there was also one man that was particularly happy – Elder Nangong.
For him, this meant he was one step closer to executing his plan.
But, originally, ‘Parasite’ should have already started screening by now if the old man didn’t keep delaying its release, so the marketing they did early on was completely put to waste. By delaying the film, Springfall did not grab onto the hype and other film agencies quickly grabbed onto the opportunity instead.
The popularity of ‘The Ant Queen’ brought the potential of sci-fi to everyone’s attention, and everyone wanted to grab a slice of this cake. As a result, sci-fi was expected to undergo a boom in the following 2-3 years.
The staff at Springfall were really unhappy with Elder Nangong. After all, they had put in so much effort to produce the film and even snatched Tangning’s post production team, but now, everything had gone to waste.
Every few days, the agency’s staff would gather to complain and vent.
During this time, Bai Junye heard the most complaints.
As the director of ‘Parasite’, he wasn’t as angry as some other people, but he definitely felt it was a shame that the film ended up this way. Whether it was production or post production, ‘Parasite’ had the most potential to go up against ‘The Ant Queen’, but Elder Nangong had now turned it into a tool for revenge.
Bai Junye went from being an arthouse director to a sci-fi director, hoping to someday hold his head high, but he still didn’t see any hope in sight.
