In the afternoon the next day, in the review venue at XX Film and Television Base, Zhongding Film and Television Group and the Film Bureau's related leaders appeared in succession. Aside from them the crew's creative team as well as several actors and actresses also arrived at the scene. Only Han Dong's presence was missing.

"Is Han Dong not coming?" Director Lu asked Yu Ming.

Yu Ming replied: "He been busy with training recently, he may not be able to pull away from it."

Director Lu initially wanted to ask again but Feng Jun waved him over.

Wang Zhongding instructed the company's employees to pour the leaders some tea and properly serve them. Before this he also made several trips to the Film Bureau, giving gifts and inviting people to dinner is naturally unavoidable.

Today he did not let Han Dong come for two reasons. One, because he fears the result will not be good and it would stimulate him, and two, because he doesn't want Han Dong to hear the whispering during the review.

A Film Bureau, who is frequently in contact with Wang Zhongding, told him: "Xiaowang, you don't have to be nervous. I saw the script and there's basically no issue."

(Xiao = Little, it's usually used by elders to refer to people who are of the younger generation)

"Wang Zhongding politely responded: "Thank you for your understanding."

"Come, come, come. Let's sit here. Is there still someone who hasn't arrived yet? If there's no one then we can begin."

As he was talking a silhouette of a person ducked in from the back door. Because his movement was very fast almost no one noticed his arrival, all except for Wang Zhongding whose complexion instantly changed.

Han Dong sat next to Yu Ming, panting heavily. "Fortunately I moved quickly, otherwise I wouldn't have made it."

Yu Ming was surprise, "You wanted to come?"

"Who said I didn't want to come?"

"Chief Wang."

Han Dong got angry just talking about this, "Wang Zhongding is really not a thing! He told me the review is tomorrow!"

(Not a thing = is a phrase used to describe the ruthlessness in others)

"Maybe you misheard?" You Ming doesn't believe Wang Zhongding would say the wrong day.

Han Dong harrumphed: "He wasn't being deliberate?"

"Shhh, stop talking, it's going to start."

Han Dong saw that there was still a trailer playing so he turned his attention to Wang Zhongding and coincidentally saw him whispering on the ear of the leader beside him. He internally scolded: rotten old man! What are doing sticking so f*cking close? You acting like this because you think I'm not here?

After a while, the dailies officially began playing.

Han Dong turned his attention back to the screen, his heart was looking forward to watching his first work as a movie actor.

The beginning of the movie was boundless darkness that lasted for more than ten seconds. Suddenly, an audio sounded, "Just over there, there, there..."

Before the audio finished, it was stuck. It sounded like there's a problem with the sound effects, but if you listen carefully you will notice a slight fluctuation in tone which resembled an overcharged brain, making the entire scalp feel numb.

This voice was recorded by Han Dong. If the person who hears this has not experienced ghost press then they would only feel uncomfortable and there will be tightness in their chest. But if the person who hears this has experienced ghost press, their hair will instantly stand on its end and fear will seize them.
