So, in the end, Thorne Greer decided to make a trip to Flame Nation with the current distribution department manager and two assistants. They would work out the distribution plan, and then at least identify some cinemas for showing the movie. If it performed poorly or nobody came to watch, they could just pull it from the theaters, safe in the knowledge that the other party would have little say in the matter.

Having made the decision, Thorne Greer quickly called Damian Bryan, then informed the distribution manager and those who were to go with her to Flame Nation. She booked the earliest flight available and decided to resolve the matter as quickly as possible. She didn’t want it hanging over her any longer, wishing she could distance herself from the disgusting affair.

She didn’t care what kind of deal Damian Bryan and Finn Lewis had made, but she was resolved to quash any grand plans for a wide release of such a terrible movie! Landing in Celeston City as night fell, Thorne Greer was taken aback when Bryan appeared at her hotel immediately after she checked in.

Upon seeing Thorne Greer, Damian Bryan bluntly stated, “If the quality of the film is good tomorrow, we won’t need to discuss it – it must be screened in no fewer than 2000 cinemas! If the film quality is poor, we still need to guarantee more than 600 screenings.”

“Impossible! Mr. Damian Bryan! You are committing a crime!” Thorne Greer exclaimed, “Mr. Damian Bryan, you are abusing your authority! Film quality? Can that thing even be called a movie?! It’s just a video taken within a game. Even those videos made with a DV camera on platforms are ten thousand times better than it! You want to screen such garbage in 600 cinemas?!”

Thorne Greer’s voice was loud, her face flushed with anger, while Bryan’s face darkened. His gaze, akin to a hawk’s, was firmly fixed on Thorne Greer, like a ferocious lion eyeing its prey. Not until Thorne Greer finally sat down somewhat timidly did Damian Bryan speak in measured, ominous tones. “I can let things slide today, but if you hold this attitude tomorrow, you will regret it for the rest of your life. I promise, the consequences will be more than you can bear.”

Thorne Greer also shook Finn’s hand with a smile. “Mr. Lewis, while we are here, whether we can strike a deal depends on the quality of your film.” Although she looked down on the film, Thorne Greer could not disrespect Finn. As she was in the capitalistic North Federation, she was acutely aware of the power of capital.

For someone like Finn Lewis, regardless of his nationality, he would have tremendous power in the North Federation if he were willing. Therefore, Thorne Greer definitely would not foolishly offend Finn.

“Of course, I have great confidence in our film.” Finn nodded and replied with a smile. Thorne Greer did not respond. The screening room was ready. Bryan arrived, along with Yuri Johnson, Finn, and several deputy directors of WY company. They all attached great importance to this matter. They had seen the award-winning video and thought highly of its quality.

If it could be released, and that too in the Federation, it would be pioneering for WY Company.

The screening room was located in WY headquarters. It was initially constructed as a welfare theater for WY employees to watch movies. Now, it served as the perfect place for a screening. As everyone took their seats, Finn instructed Jim Lewis to prepare for the screening.

Soon, the lights in the screening room dimmed. When the screen lit up, all the people in the room quietened down. Although Thorne Greer had contempt for this kind of game video, she took her work very seriously. As the screen lit up, Thorne Greer straightened up in her chair, her eyes fixed on the screen.

As the screen brightened, a large tree appeared. Seeing this, Thorne Greer was slightly taken aback. Before coming here, she knew that the whole video was made from in-game footage, and not by professional video makers, but by players themselves. She knew what to expect from game videos, and was mentally prepared for it.
