Martial Arts Consultant / Young Master of Taixuan Martial Arts Hall / Raiden Mei Sings "Honkai World Diva"

"Kiana..."

"We... can never go back to the way things were."

In stark contrast to the warm and sweet storyline just moments before, the atmosphere of the promotional video gradually becomes oppressive, with trembling voices conveying an undeniable sadness that makes viewers feel deeply distressed.

Mei's last words, in particular, gave them a sense of foreboding.

"Wait, what does that last sentence mean, 'We can't go back to the past'? Does that mean Mei is really going to run away with Kevin?"

"Holy crap, now that you mention it, Kevin's girlfriend Mei and Mei look exactly alike. Could it be that he...?"

"If this crap plot really develops, no matter who the screenwriter is, I'll curse them to death, and I'll never watch Honkai 3rd again in my life."

"The world rejects Cuckolds."

This has sparked heated controversy online.

Mei's departure clearly heightened their anticipation.

Many people who have unrealistic expectations and have already broken their guard have started criticizing the plot as garbage even before the movie has been released.

"By the way, what was the reaction of the Brainless Idiot when it saw this scene?" Sirin suddenly asked curiously.

Far East Branch Office Building.

When Kiana saw this promotional video, she hugged Mei's arm tightly, her expression like that of an abandoned cat.

"Mei, are you going to abandon me?"

Mei chuckled and tapped Kiana's fair forehead.

"Didn't you say you wouldn't come back to Hyperion with me in the first place?"

"I promise I'll go back with you. Please don't run off with that old man anymore."

Mei was both amused and exasperated.

Chapter 245 Martial Arts Instruction / Young Master of the Tai Xu Martial Hall

After the promotional video was released.

Yaqing felt that the final scene of Kiana and Mei's "domestic violence" didn't quite capture the feeling he envisioned, so he held a meeting overnight at the company building.

"We understand what you're saying, but how would any of us know how to fight? Let alone perform realistic fighting techniques."

Patrick looked helpless. If they were to do the fighting scenes from anime, they could use special effects, but Yaqing actually wanted them to incorporate fighting techniques as well. Wasn't that making things difficult for them?

"Here's the computer, you can do it yourself, okay?" Cheng Lixue said directly.

Yaqing fell into deep thought.

The atmosphere in the conference room gradually quieted down.

A long time.

He suddenly remembered, martial arts instructors? There are two people in the company who have studied Shenzhou arts since childhood, and their families even own martial arts schools.

Yaqing changed her expression from before, stood up and left the conference room without hesitation.

Seeing Yaqing leave without a word, the women were all stunned and couldn't react.

"Why did the boss leave so suddenly? Has the meeting ended?"

Shub asked Salome.

Of everyone present, besides Yaqing, Salome held the highest position.

"I don't know, let's wait and see."

Salome, and Cheng Lixue and Shigure Kira, who had already gotten up to leave, were extremely embarrassed. Fortunately Cheng Lixue reacted very quickly.

"You'd like to sit here?"

"Ah, let's switch seats."

Cheng Lixue and Shigure Kira switched places, cleverly defusing the awkward situation.

The bored women waited for Yaqing to return in the conference room.

After leaving the conference room, Yaqing went straight to the floor of the post-production department. The newly hired outstanding graduate of the St. Freya Academy immediately became serious when he saw the boss suddenly come over.

Yaqing arrived at Fu Hua's workstation.

Fu Hua, engrossed in her work, continued typing away on the keyboard, unaware of Yaqing.

"Magnificent."

Fu Hua didn't see Yaqing standing beside her until Yaqing called her.

"Yaqing, you were looking for me?"

Fu Hua asked.

"I need your help with something."

Yaqing took Fu Hua away from this floor and went to the dubbing department to find Little Knowledge. On the way back to the conference room, Little Knowledge couldn't help but ask curiously, "Yaqing, what exactly did you want to see me and the old antique about?"

Yaqing joked, "It's nothing, I just wanted to see you guys have a fight."

Upon hearing Yaqing's words, Fu Hua was stunned, and Little Knowledge blurted out, "Are you out of your mind?!"

"What I mean is to have you handle the motion capture for the Honkai series," Yaqing explained.

"Motion capture?"

When they arrived at the conference room, Rita had already served coffee to the women. When she saw Yaqing return, she brought out three cups of coffee that she had prepared beforehand, catering to Yaqing's taste. The middle cup had sugar and milk added.

Hey, everyone's here!

Little Knowledge greeted Salome and the others, appearing to be quite familiar with them.

"Little Knowledge?"

When the women saw Yaqing return with Fu Hua and Little Knowledge, they were puzzled. They were unaware of the terrifying combat power of the Fu Sisters and thought that Little Knowledge and Fu Hua were just fragile college graduates.

"Let me introduce you. Fu Hua is the current head of the Tai Xu Martial Hall Academy," Yaqing said with a smile. "Fuhua Shishi is the current young head of the Tai Xu Martial Hall."

"Get lost! You're the young master!"

Little Knowledge aggrieved, and my heart is filled with resentment.

Why is Fu Hua introduced as the head of the sect, while he himself is only the young head? Doesn't this make him appear a generation lower than the old fogies for no reason?

Fu Hua cupped her hands in greeting.

The women exchanged bewildered glances, their eyes filled with shock.

Judging from their appearance, Fu Hua and Little Knowledge's thin and flat figures didn't look like they had ever practiced martial arts.

Especially Fu Hua, with her red-rimmed glasses, looks every bit the academic genius, not someone who has practiced martial arts since childhood.

"Is it a martial arts school recognized by the Shenzhou Martial Arts Association?" Shigure Kira Luo asked cautiously.

No, that's not true.

Shigure Kira breathed a sigh of relief.

"It's the officially recognized number one martial arts school in Shenzhou!"

Little Knowledge looked proud and elated.

"Little Knowledge!" Fu Hua had intended to keep a low profile, but she didn't expect Little Knowledge to reveal all his secrets.

The women stared wide-eyed.

If it were just a martial arts school, it wouldn't have surprised them so much. What surprised them was that they couldn't believe Fu Hua and Little Knowledge were the masters of the number one martial arts school in Shenzhou. They thought that Fu Hua practicing martial arts was just a setting written by Yaqing.

Rita suddenly felt that the name Tai Xu Martial Hall sounded familiar. After thinking about it carefully, she realized that Durandal seemed to have trained at this martial arts academy before and had heard her mention it. President Otto also seemed to be an investor in the academy.

Looking at her sisters in front of her, Rita almost lost her composure.

"Yaqing, do you mean to have Fu Hua and Shi serve as martial arts instructors?" Salome immediately guessed Yaqing's thoughts.

No wonder Salome became a director.

"That's right, I want to directly hand over the motion capture of the scene 'Sinners Elegy' to Hua and Little Knowledge."

Is this a new plot point?

Little Knowledge hasn't appeared in the Honkai series yet, so in order not to spoil her viewing experience, her job in the voice acting department is very relaxed, and she is responsible for the voice acting of some supporting characters.

Salome looked at Yaqing questioningly, asking if she could give the script of "Sinners Elegy" to Fu Hua and Little Knowledge.

Yaqing nodded, indicating that she could.

Little Knowledge eagerly scraped together the money for the laptop, and on the screen was Yaqing's Sinners Elegy and its explanation.

I was surprised to see that it was Kiana and Mei fighting.

Little Knowledge's eyes widened.

The motion capture that Little Knowledge and Fu Hua needed to complete was for the close-quarters combat scene on the rooftop.

"Old timer! Come quick, look! It's a scene from that video that was only halfway through airing back then, Kiana and Mei are fighting."

Little Knowledge excitedly called Fu Hua over, just like a child.

After Fu Hua finished reading, she asked Yaqing, "Was she really hitting her or just pretending?"

Real fighting and fake fighting are two different forms of expression in martial arts. The reason Fu Hua asked this question was because she was afraid that this scene was something Kiana and Mei were putting on for Kevin in the story.

"The plot is about brutally beating them now, so don't hold back at all."

Yaqing smiled.

But it sent chills down Fu Hua's spine.

What kind of psychological trauma did he suffer to write about his niece in such a tragic way, to make two people who loved each other kill each other?

"According to what's written in the script, or..."

"You're the expert, I'm the novice, I'll listen to you."

Yaqing interrupted Fu Hua directly.

"You are the motion capture and martial arts instructor."

Fu Hua nodded, stroking her chin. "According to what you wrote, Kiana is using unskilled street fighting, Mei has received swordsmanship training through her system."

"Old fogey, I'll be Mei!"

Little Knowledge was extremely excited.

Finally, he had a legitimate reason to beat up the old woman, and she couldn't even fight back.

"No, Little Knowledge, you be Kiana."

"Why?!"

My Little Knowledge.

"Because...you can't beat me." Fu Hua displayed the might of an older sister.

Chapter 246 features Raiden Mei singing "The Songstress of the Honkai World".

The motion capture room is located below all the other department floors, with almost an entire floor dedicated to it. It has excellent sound insulation, using the same soundproofing material as Yaqing's office.

"Oh!"

Little Knowledge, dressed in a motion capture suit, rushed towards Fu Hua.

Fu Hua was also wearing a motion capture suit. In order to better fit Raiden Mei's character in the drama, she put herself in the role and her expression became somewhat indifferent.

Yaqing only looked at it for a while before handing it over to Rita.

Firstly, he believed in Fu Hua and Little Knowledge's martial arts skills. They were professionals in martial arts, and his presence there would be superfluous. An amateur instructing an expert is a major taboo in filmmaking.

Secondly, he had more important things to do.
