Spoon Killer Demon 2

The comment section exploded:

"So the Golden Warrior's true identity is the Spoon Killer Demon?"

"@Ren Hang, exactly! After carefully comparing them, I found eight similarities between the Spoon Killer Demon and Ren Hang. Take a close look—they're both played by the same person!"

"Then what the hell am I supposed to count on him to protect me for? If he comes at me with a spoon, banging away, am I supposed to just die?"

"That's what you call a single thought separating god from demon."

Everyone knew the power of the internet. With countless netizens scrutinizing the evidence under magnifying glasses and comparing...

In the comment section, the photo-editing crowd sprang into action. Almost the instant the Golden Warrior's true identity was exposed, they had the picture ready.

The image showed the Golden Warrior's righteous, reassuring face on one side, and the Spoon Killer Demon's pale, eerie visage on the other.

Netizens were enthusiastic about making jokes.

Some even posted the picture to Ren Hang's Weibo account.

"So this is the kind of Golden Warrior you are." The topic shot back up the trending charts.

No one had expected Ren Hang, who played the lead in a tokusatsu drama, to have also played a terrifying character like the Spoon Killer Demon.

It was like those veteran actors who played anti-Japanese heroes but had also played Japanese soldiers.

That contrast and theatricality drew plenty of netizens in, and they eagerly joined in on the jokes.

Thanks to the viral image, Ren Hang's Weibo account gained more than a hundred thousand followers.

Lin Chuan was thoroughly amused as he read the comments on Ren Hang's Weibo.

At first, he'd only come across a meme about Ren Hang's transformation from god to demon in the comments under Balloon on Bika Net.

Following the netizens' trail, Lin Chuan had tracked it down to Weibo.

Lin Chuan had discussed this with Ren Hang before.

Playing the same kind of role over and over might limit an actor to that typecast.

But Ren Hang wasn't playing the same kind of role now.

Just as Lin Chuan had expected, plenty of netizens praised Ren Hang's acting in the comments.

"Hang's acting is pretty great. He can actually pull off two completely different roles."

"Protecting public order in Jianghai City on one hand, chasing Little Fatty around with a spoon on the other. You've really been working hard!"

"Ren Hang, do you know Lin Chuan's address? I want to send him some local specialties!"

After browsing Weibo, Lin Chuan finally figured out what movie to make next.

At last, he found the A-grade talent he wanted in the talent list.

[The A-grade talent selected by the host, Stephen Chow's Comedy Character Creation Techniques, has been sent.]

In Lin Chuan's eyes, Stephen Chow was a director who was exceptionally good at coaching amateur actors.

People like Jiang Bao, Ru Hua, Tang Niu, and Dui Chuan Chang hadn't been professional actors at first, yet they'd shone in Stephen Chow's movies.

As for Sister Pomegranate, Landlord, and Landlady, they'd once been professional actors, but under the influence of Stephen Chow's style, they'd also found a second wind in their careers.

That was what made Stephen Chow so impressive.

After absorbing Stephen Chow's Comedy Character Creation Techniques,

Lin Chuan called Xiao Hei and Ren Hang to make sure they were both free.

Lin Chuan posted a message on both Bika Net and Weibo:

[Hello, everyone! Balloon has recently gone live on Bika Net, and we've prepared a batch of prizes. Just leave a comment below to enter the drawing.

Winners can send us a portrait of themselves (it must be of you) along with their address, and we'll send you a Head Balloon.

Also, the sequel to Spoon Killer Demon will be coming soon.]

Netizens left comments in droves:

"Hope I win!"

"Hey, you might want to check what the prize is first!"

"Hahaha, a Head Balloon as a prize? Lin Chuan, are you serious?"

"That's one hell of a carrot-and-stick approach!"

"Hahaha, I've been waiting for Spoon Killer Demon 2. Finally, you're here~"

Most of the netizens were just joking around.

Plenty were also looking forward to Spoon Killer Demon 2.

That afternoon, Lin Chuan began filming Spoon Killer Demon 2 with Xiao Hei and Ren Hang.

The plot of Spoon Killer Demon 2 was just as simple.

After Spoon Killer Demon 1 became a hit online, plenty of netizens suggested ways for Little Fatty to deal with the problem.

Some suggested Little Fatty put on a down jacket and a helmet so he wouldn't have to worry about being hit by the Spoon Killer Demon.

Others said that since the Spoon Killer Demon had so many spoons, Little Fatty should just get a giant magnet and use it to pull all the spoons away.

The point Lin Chuan wanted to make with Spoon Killer Demon 2 was simple:

No method worked against the Spoon Killer Demon.

With their first shoot behind them,

filming Spoon Killer Demon 2 went much more smoothly.

What's more, Lin Chuan, Xiao Hei, and Ren Hang discovered a new source of fun.

They ran into a fan of the Spoon Killer Demon at the filming location.

Lin Chuan thought one bald guy had a face audiences would like, so he asked him to make a cameo.

It took only half a day to finish filming Spoon Killer Demon 2.

For the ending, Lin Chuan even went with an open ending.

After editing the original footage, Lin Chuan logged into his Bika Net account and clicked Upload.

The plot of Spoon Killer Demon 2 was very simple.

When he saw that cannonballs were useless against the Spoon Killer Demon,

Little Fatty picked up the chainsaw again and sawed off the Spoon Killer Demon's right hand.

For a good while, Little Fatty didn't hear the Spoon Killer Demon banging anymore.

But it didn't last. Little Fatty spotted the severed hand hopping down the hallway toward him, spoon in hand.

And it took the Spoon Killer Demon only half a day to learn how to hold a spoon in his left hand.

Little Fatty gave in.

To lessen the pain from the spoon strikes, Little Fatty put on a thick padded coat and a helmet.

The Spoon Killer Demon kept stubbornly banging on Little Fatty's helmet.

The weather was scorching, and Little Fatty couldn't stand it anymore. He took off his heavy coat, bared his upper body, and taunted the Spoon Killer Demon:

"Come on, you bastard!"

Who would've guessed the Spoon Killer Demon had come to love the feeling of hitting a helmet? He kept relentlessly banging on the helmet Little Fatty was wearing.

After enduring it for twenty-one days, Little Fatty was left dizzy and seeing stars.

He took off the helmet.

But all that pounding over the past month had gotten the Spoon Killer Demon used to hitting helmets.

The Spoon Killer Demon seemed to have transferred his grudge to the helmet and didn't pay any attention to Little Fatty after he took it off.

Instead, he kept stubbornly banging on the helmet.

Little Fatty was free. He collapsed on the floor, panting.

But before he could catch his breath, the Spoon Killer Demon put the helmet back on Little Fatty's head.

If one plan failed, Little Fatty had another.

Little Fatty ran all the way to a room with a strong magnetic field, leading the Spoon Killer Demon inside.

The Spoon Killer Demon was about to hit Little Fatty when he noticed that all the spoons on him had been firmly pulled against the wall.

Little Fatty laughed so hard that tears streamed down his face. Just as he was mocking the Spoon Killer Demon for being helpless,

the Spoon Killer Demon pulled a wooden spoon from inside his robe.

Little Fatty's smile froze.

With no other options, Little Fatty decided to join the Spoon Killer Demon.

He smeared white makeup on his face, put on a black cloak, and took a spoon to harass people in the street.

But a bald guy with a powerful punch beat him up badly.

Just like that, Little Fatty failed to join the Spoon Killer Demon and instead got beaten up by both the bald guy and the Spoon Killer Demon.

Furious, Little Fatty went into full defiance mode:

"Come on, kill me! Just kill me already!"

The bald guy was intimidated by Little Fatty's willingness to fight to the death. Cursing under his breath, he walked away.

Just then, a bus sped past. Little Fatty seemed to see hope, and strength filled his entire body.

He charged straight at the bus.

Soon enough, the netizens' comments arrived:

"Hahaha, poor Little Fatty!"

"I died laughing when the Spoon Killer Demon's severed arm hopped toward Little Fatty."

"So a down jacket and helmet don't work after all."

"When the Spoon Killer Demon's spoons got pulled away, I breathed a sigh of relief for Little Fatty. But I never expected him to pull a wooden spoon out of an indescribable place!"

"Is Little Fatty going to get hit by the bus in the end?"

"Probably not. The Spoon Killer Demon's true identity is the Golden Warrior, after all. He wouldn't let a citizen die in a traffic accident!"

"I'm here to rescue you from misery. How you got into misery is none of your business!"

With the first movie's popularity behind it, Spoon Killer Demon 2 quickly surpassed one million views.

And thanks to the boost from Spoon Killer Demon 2, the first movie's view count rose quite a bit as well.

Lin Chuan's account was about to receive another hundred thousand yuan.

Having made a small trial run with Director Niu, Lin Chuan was in high spirits. He called out to the system in his mind:

"System, give me a mission."

"This time, you can make it just a little bit harder..."
