Chapter 1110: 1110

#Fang Qiu won glory for the country!#

#Fang Qiu cured malaria?#

#Fang Qiu, Yang Yizhi#

The first three topics on the 24-hour Hot Search List of Weibo were all occupied by Fang Qiu.

There were comments about Fang Qiu everywhere on Weibo.

Because of the ads, the trailer, which lasted about a minute, had attracted countless views, comments, and heated discussions since it was pinned to Tsunami’s home page.

However, since Tsunami had no topic area or heated discussion area, people could only discuss the trailer heatedly in its comments section. The number of likes had exceeded 2.6 million in just an hour!

All kinds of comments could be seen everywhere in the comments section.

The first one that received 990,000 likes read: “Does anyone object if I say Fang Qiu is awesome?”

Of course, heated discussions about Fang Qiu could be seen on the major real-time forums, post-bars, and so on, apart from Weibo and Tsunami.

Comores, Africo.

“Beep, beep, beep…”

Just as Fang Qiu was treating a malaria patient who had come to him, his cell phone in his trouser pocket suddenly rang.

He took it out and had a look.

It was a call from Director Chen Xiaogang.

Fang Qiu immediately picked up the phone and said, “Hello, Director Chen.”

“Are you still in Africo?”

From the other end of the line came Director Chen Xiaogang’s voice.

Fang Qiu nodded and answered, “Yes. I have something else to do here. What’s wrong? What can I do for you?”

“Well, I have something to tell you.”

Director Chen Xiaogang laughed and continued, “Boy, why don’t you log onto Weibo and see how popular you are in Huaxia? Now the top three trending topics on Weibo are occupied by you alone!”

“What happened?” Asked Fang Qiu in confusion.

“What else could have happened?”

Director Chen Xiaogang explained with a smile, “Well, it’s about your treatment of malaria. Someone posted the announcement of that Africon country you helped and the notice issued by the Ministry of Public Health on Weibo, which was abuzz with discussion when the netizens saw these. By the way, I did something to make you more popular.”

“You did something to make me more popular? I guess you must have taken advantage of my popularity, haven’t you?”

Fang Qiu smiled knowingly and asked, “Is it about the movie?”

Director Chen Xiaogang quickly nodded and replied, “Yes. I borrowed your popularity on Weibo to release the movie’s trailer. Now that I’ve received such good feedback, I’m calling to inform you that the movie will have its premiere on August 1st. When the time comes, you have to attend the premiere ceremony!”

“August 1st?”

Fang Qiu thought for a moment and continued, “Okay, I’ll be there.”

“Besides, you should hurry to check out Weibo and help us promote the movie by the way. If you don’t do any publicity work now, you’re wasting your popularity.”

Chen Xiaogang reminded him.

“Okay.” Fang Qiu nodded.

After hanging up the phone, he instantly took the ready medicinal potion out and fed it to the malaria patient.

After doing all this, he took out his mobile phone and logged onto Weibo.

He took a look and found that people were all talking about him on Weibo.

They were talking about him going to Africo to treat malaria, his “Three Billion Foundation”, his international contributions and popularity, and his new movie.

“Alas…”

Seeing how heatedly he was discussed online, Fang Qiu could not help sighing softly. He shook his head and said, “I’m already in Africo, but I still can’t avoid it.”

He laughed bitterly and immediately reposted the trailer of the movie “Yang Yizhi” with a caption, “It’s the first time that I’ve acted in a movie. I took a great risk and played the role of Hero Yang Yizhi with full respect. I put my heart and soul into it, hoping to be recognized by the public. I hope that everyone can see the chivalrous spirit of Hero Yang Yizhi from the movie!”

As soon as Fang Qiu posted it, his fans went crazy.

“What the fuck, Master Fang Qiu updated his Weibo!”

“Finally. I’ve been waiting for this moment for months. I finally know that you’re still alive.”

“It was like I was in a dream. You haven’t updated your Weibo for so long that I subconsciously think you don’t exist in this world. When I saw your update, it felt so unreal!”

“Plead for close contact.”

“I bow at your feet.”

“Master Fang Qiu is so awesome that he even cured malaria. He brought honor to the country!”

“Master Fang Qiu, what’s the situation in Africo? Have you really found a cure for malaria?”

In addition to the shock and excitement, many people asked about the situation in Africo in the comments section of Fang Qiu’s post.

After sending the post, Fang Qiu opened the comments section at once and began to browse.

Every time the page was refreshed, the number of comments would increase exponentially.

Seeing that most of the people were focusing on Africo, Fang Qiu thought for a while and felt that he should take this opportunity to let everyone understand the power of Chinese Medicine.

Therefore, he was ready to give a reply to answer everyone’s questions!

He selected the most detailed comment in the comments section and started editing a reply before reposting it.

“That’s right. I found the prescription for treating malaria. In fact, before I found it, I knew traditional Chinese medicine could also cure malaria. But if I used traditional Chinese medicine, the cost of overseas transportation would be too high. And if I used TCM therapies to treat malaria, it would be difficult to eliminate it in a short time. Therefore, I spent a few days finding a prescription in Africo that could cure malaria. Of course, this prescription also requires the processing method of traditional Chinese medicine in order to bring out the perfect efficacy so as to cure malaria. It’s not only the greatness of Huaxia Chinese Medicine but also of traditional medicine. I’m here to pay tribute to the ancients!”

Because the comment was reposted after a reply was edited, it directly became a brand-new post on Weibo.

When the netizens saw this post, they started discussing again.

“Master Fang Qiu admitted it.”

“It’s indeed true!”

“Awesome. Master Fang Qiu lives up to his reputation.”

“Our traditional Chinese medicine is really amazing. Although I have never heard of Africon traditional medical skills, the fact that there is a prescription that can cure malaria proves that Africon traditional medical skills are not bad!”

After the trailer of the movie “Yang Yizhi” was reposted by Fang Qiu, it set off another wave of views in no time. Although most people had watched it, Fang Qiu’s repost still attracted a lot of people who had not watched it before.

After watching the trailer on Fang Qiu’s post, those who had never watched it before were immediately interested. They all expressed their expectation and were ready to watch the movie at the cinema.

Right at this moment, the official Weibo account of the movie “Yang Yizhi” instantly released a brand-new piece of news.

“#Fang Qiu, Yang Yizhi# The movie ‘Yang Yizhi’ will have its premiere on August 1st. Before that, all the major cinema chains will officially open the presale ticket-buying channels at midnight. The ticket-buying apps are Eyecat and …”

The post went viral on Weibo shortly after it was posted.

Those who were particularly looking forward to the movie clicked on the ticket-scrambling page and watched how to scramble for the presale tickets right away.

After that, they began to download the ticket-buying apps in succession.

After using their mobile phones to log in and choose their cities, they were all waiting for the presale of tickets to officially start at noon!

However, at noon sharp, as soon as the sales channels were opened, the presale data soared up like a rocket, growing into a shocking curve that had never been seen before.

Early the next morning, the news reports of all the major media outlets came out.

“The presales of ‘Yang Yizhi’ are amazing, hitting 80 million overnight and still growing fast!”

“So far, the presales of ‘Yang Yizhi’ have exceeded 80 million! Which height will the movie’s 24-hour presales reach?”

“Will Fang Qiu’s first movie be a hit? Will there be a breakthrough in the 80-million presales?”

Before anyone could check it out, the presales this night were released by the major media outlets.

80 million?

The presales didn’t seem much worse than those of the popular movies in recent years. The 24-hour presales of one of the hottest and highest-grossing movies of recent years exceeded 100 million!

This movie seemed to still lack 20 million.

However, it had only been one night.

From midnight to 8 a.m. in the morning, there were only eight hours in total, but the presales reached 80 million. There were 16 hours left, and the presales were still increasing. According to the speculation of the major media outlets, it was very likely that the presales of “Yang Yizhi” would break the previous record!

August was an ordinary but extraordinary month.

Perhaps it was because of the weather, or perhaps it was because of the artistic conception of autumn, most movies that would be released in August seemed to be lyrical. There were beautiful love dramas and sad youth dramas.

Everyone seemed to tacitly agree that a movie like this would be a box office winner if released at this time.

This was why many similar movies were released every year in August.

But no one expected that the action movie “Yang Yizhi” would also be released in August.

Furthermore, its presales were soooo shocking!

Seeing such a perfect presale performance, those who were in charge of the movies that would be released at the same time cried bitterly!

How were their movies going to compete with this one?

Its presale performance dealt a heavy blow to and directly crushed all their movies. There were even some movies that hadn’t grossed as much as this one had presold.

Under the circumstances, how should they schedule their screenings?

They were screwed!

Soon, those movies began to find various excuses to delay their screenings.

After seeing the 24-hour presale data, Director Chen Xiaogang could not help but feel excited.

“This presale performance is not bad. And it’s not the end yet.”

As a well-known director, some of his movies had received similar presale results.

So he was excited, but not thrilled.

But he was temporarily relieved.

At least for now, the presales wouldn’t be bad.

Director Chen Xiaogang nodded slightly and quickly put away his emotions. He then closed his eyes to go over the plot, the wonderful performances, and so on in detail.

“No problem. I’m sure the quality is all right. I’ll just have to wait for August 1st!”

At the same time, representatives of major medical organizations from all over the world landed at Comores Airport, and then they all hurried to the medical assistance base together.

This time, they came to test whether Fang Qiu could really cure malaria!
