My Extraordinary Achievement Chapter 146 – A 300,000 Increase
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
When he returned to the house, Meng Fan took out the chat history from today’s conversations with the seven companies and uploaded everything to the live stream aid, including the film content. He then took out his laptop and iPad. He turned on the TV and uploaded them onto the screens. He then uploaded them to the live stream aid, black magic earbuds and the black magic running shoes.
In an instant, the living room became a battle room from a futuristic spaceship. It was full of screens and virtual interfaces, creating a technologically advanced atmosphere.
In such an environment, Meng Fan’s weeaboo side was bursting with excitement!
He played around with it for 10 minutes before calming down and carefully started to rearrange and organize the content.
Up until now, Meng Fan had gradually adapted to the virtual interface of these black magic products. His eyes no longer got uncomfortable from staring at them for a long duration.
The black magic products, especially the live stream assistant, had one good function; they had a degree of artificial intelligence. This included helping Meng Fan extract the important data from the dialogue, information, videos, and pictures.
Plus the job Qin Jiao had introduced him had a total of eight hand-drawn posters on his hands. After organizing his things, he organized the jobs in the order they were due from earliest to latest. He then put the ones with similar styles together and then began a second round of preening for relevant information.
After the second run-through, Meng Fan decided on the first poster to draw. He then brought his black magic technology to the study. He placed the virtual interface from the earbuds somewhere above his line of vision and started to extract relevant information with his live stream assistant’s AI function.
Although Meng Fan could confirm that with his current drawing skills, he could do anything and the other party would be satisfied, it was still his first customer, and they were paying too. So he decided to treat it seriously.
The eight posters together paid a lot. If he could successfully finish the first batch and gain some returning customers, then he could complete the [Wealth Distribution Cherub] task on his own. To Meng Fan, this was already a great sense of accomplishment even if there was no system task reward.

Of course, no matter how accomplished he felt, it paled in comparison to the magical attribute of +1 luck.
The first poster was a promotional poster for a TV series. This kind of series was adapted from an online novel and was conveniently one of the few historical novels he had read. It was a legendary story about a small prison head from the six doors entering the Ming Dynasty’s courts.
Meng Fan took a look at the main lineup. To be honest, it was very vague. He did not know most of the starring actors, but when he scrolled down, he was surprised. There were about a dozen OG’s also participating in the show, and some of the stills and videos seemed to have a good quality of production.
And facts prove that Meng Fan’s judgment was still intact. The word of mouth for this drama was excellent. It was a clear stream in the adaptation of a male fiction novel. Only it was a pity that the crew was a bit poor and could only promote it with their own money.
The most important reason he began with this job was the familiarity. After combining the stills, videos, and related materials, Meng Fan had already planned what to do with several other novels and their contents.
When they met, the other party mentioned that the scriptwriter of this drama was also the original author. The plot, characters, and personalities had a high quality of completion and design, so Meng Fan could combine his own impression and understanding of the novel with the existing materials to draw the poster.
The black magic virtual interface would project the materials and content that Meng Fan needed any time he required it. As he drew, he could lift his head, and it would appear, so it was rather convenient. This also improved his efficiency to some extent.
The crew requested ten pieces for the first job. Although it was enough for him to draw ten, he decided to submit two more extras as gifts since he was a fan of the author.
Even though this was the least paying job out of all eight tasks.
It took him three hours to complete twelve drawings, doing four in an hour. They were all high quality too. His speed could be compared to when he was doing simple illustrations, demonstrating the changes through his godlike drawing skills.

He took a break; he ate some food and continued to draw.
The second job was another movie with a low budget. The contents were related to the Ming dynasty, and the main lineup was all right. The male lead was an actor Meng Fan was really fond of, but the entire movie’s quality seemed very average based on the information at hand. At least, that was what it looked like to Meng Fan.
But regardless of the quality, Meng Fan’s quality for his hand-drawn posters would remain the same.
This group required eight, so he only drew eight.
After finishing this job it was 2:00 am. These twenty or so posters consumed quite a bit of energy, so the drowsiness had hit pretty early.
In the next two days, aside from the two basketball matches, Meng Fan spent most of his time at home working on his posters. He had three courses which he called in his absence.
That afternoon, the animation department welcomed the last opponent from group A, who also happened to be the most difficult team from group A. The art history department from the faculty of humanities and arts. They were the predicted champions for this year’s tournament.
As soon as the tournament began, the score of the two teams was equal. At fifteen minutes, the art history students had barely pulled ahead by three points. When the first half ended, they were only ahead by 6 points.
In the second half, everyone thought Meng Fan would pop off and start scoring baskets, but he didn’t even get to go on the court.
In the end, the animation department lost the game by 15 points. At the same time, they advanced and became one of the top four teams for the semifinals.
Based on senior Ah Ning’s predictions, they just needed to make it to the semi-finals. And if they could go as the second seed from their group, they would be against the industrial design department from group B and not the more powerful sculpture department.
Most importantly, they had to conceal their potential.
Meng Fan had rolled his eyes at this. ‘You speak as if you know the extent of my abilities!’
As usual, he slipped out after the tournament. He did not go running but headed home and looked over the eight groups of posters he had already completed. After confirming that there was no problem, he sent them off to the eight crews individually.
He then waited.
Although he knew they would be accepted, Meng Fan still felt nervous. This was the first time he ever legitimately made money.
Before this, Meng Fan’s only earnestly earned money had been from tricking Meng Cai Hui into giving him her lucky money by telling her the pistachio shell he was giving her was a pretty clam shell from the ocean.
It took about ten minutes for his first paycheque, which was given by the crew’s organizer, to come. At the same time, the crew told Meng Fan that they were very satisfied with his work. They also expressed their gratitude and willingness to cooperate again.
Soon, the second crew responded then the third… It took about three hours before all eight production crews had sent Meng Fan his pay. He had passed all of their reviews, and nobody was late on giving the payment.
Counting the previous advanced payment, these eight sets of posters had netted him a total of 305,000 HXB!
The one who paid the highest gave him 65,000 while two paid 40,000, three paid 30,000 and the lowest one being 25,000.
The highest amount of posters he did was 15 posters while the lowest one was 8. Most of them were 10 or 12. On average, each poster paid over 3000 HXB each.
Realistically, this wasn’t a top notched price.
It was just that Meng Fan had finished a studio’s month worth of work in three days. It was a bit excessive.

Badass
At the end of everything, Taylor Hebert realized something. She didn't want to be a superhero. No, she wanted to be a badass. And then her prayers were answered. Imbued with the power of mimetic badassery and the ability to channel a different real-life badass every week, she set out in search for all the best things in life - well, according to Conan, at least. Modeling herself after Conan have been a mistake. Join her on her high-octane, pulp-fiction journey for vengeance, adventure, victory and mayhem. This isn't just uncensored. It's anti-censored! =========================== (Worm/Fate/Badass of the Week) Warning: crack-taken-seriously, over-the-top pulp-fiction style violence, overpowered protagonist, banned on two other sites. Hell, even the light-hearted omake jokes in this were considered too subversive to persist. ============================ AN: There’s this really, really excellent website called Badass of the Week. I’ve wasted many an hour browsing through, marveling at all the crazy shit some humans are capable of. Check it out, then come back and read this in a few days when the awesome starts to wear off. It’s worth it (all 576 entries). Back? Good! Anyways, I was looking through it recently while thinking about who I wanted to make expy’s of for my The Flying Dutchman quest ship captains (which now languishes in indefinite hiatus), and I had this idea. What if Taylor, wanting to be a badass, triggered with the power to be a different Badass every week? With a bit of Fate-style ability to draw on the tools associated with the legend (but to a just marginally less ridiculous degree), and a drive and aura to be and do badass? And thus, Badass was born in it’s somewhat cracky glory. Enjoy.
