I can rewind time to prevent death

Chapter 116 "Astonishing" Remuneration



If Lin Yishan were still alive, hearing Yan Junze's words would probably infuriate him to death.

Transform his own Golden Body Statue into a weapon, a weapon that can pose a threat to the strangenesses?

One must admit, Lin Yishan did have some skills, having used some methods to create such a statue that could actually collect Different Dimension Energy.

Different Dimension Energy is likely to be similar to what the world calls Yin Energy, but it is not exactly the same.

So if used correctly, it could serve to cultivate strangenesses, but under circumstances of excessive energy, it could also cause severe damage to them.

Just like gasoline that can power a car for driving can also be used to incinerate the whole vehicle.

Having made up his mind, Yan Junze moved the nightstand, hid the statue behind it, and planned to inquire about it before possibly transforming it into a weapon.

Before going to bed, he took a shower.

While showering, the absence of the little girl who always went "Eh" nearby was suddenly disconcerting.

He had classes the next day.

Early in the morning, after arriving at school, he first went to his homeroom teacher Xiang Decai to report back from his leave, and after filling out a situation report, he was all set.

The college entrance exam was just two weeks away.

At this point, the curriculum was at the tail end of comprehensive review, which is to say it was time to consolidate any key points or difficulties that hadn't been mastered yet.

If one's basic knowledge couldn't be made up, cramming for just two weeks would hardly be effective.

What every subject's teacher emphasized most in class was, relax, relax...

Yan Junze believed that he was probably the most relaxed candidate in the whole school.

...

"Open Your Eyes" Video Broadcasting Technology Corporation Limited had its headquarters in Tianyi District, but it also opened a branch in Tianmeng District.

The Tianmeng District branch was located on the 52nd and 53rd floors of Huadu Building, and at this moment in the video conference room on the 53rd floor, several senior executives from the branch were seated, with the headquarters' executives appearing via video.

The "Open Your Eyes" video platform is currently the hottest product for supernatural exploration across the network.

Unlike the smaller city of Shuntian, the safety level for residents of Tianmeng District was relatively higher, especially in the places where important people resided, where Exorcists were almost always present.

So there were even those influential and powerful individuals who have never encountered any strangenesses since the outbreak began.

However, most ordinary people living in the district had seen them, and though they were fearful, curiosity and the desire to explore were greater, hence the emergence of video platforms like "Open Your Eyes."

The Spirit Explorers were all experienced people, some highly professional, and there were even Spirit Exploration Teams that had been expensively crafted by certain groups of people.

Of course, most of the videos on the platform were taken by ordinary people during unexpected encounters with strangenesses, incomplete though they might be, the sense of reality they conveyed was extremely strong, evoking an intense sense of tension that in turn stimulated a greater desire to watch.

On the other side of the conference room, a projection was playing a scene from FH Community where two strangenesses were fighting fiercely.

A moment passed, and the video ended.

Editor Tang Zhengyi was seated at the end of the conference table, which showed that his status among these people was not high.

Had it not been for his involvement with the video, he might not have been able to attend such a high-level meeting.

"They should all be Sculpting Spirit-level strangenesses," a bald man in a crisp suit turned and said to everyone.

He was the chief officer for the Tianmeng District, directly appointed by the Tianyi platform headquarters.

A chubby man beside the bald one grinned, "Such a video is simply not allowed to be spread."

Another man sitting opposite, tall and in his fifties, spoke up, "Zhengyi, have you found out? Is that student really just an ordinary person without any connections to Exorcists?"

Tang Zhengyi replied, "Some connection, they seem to have had several contacts, so they appear quite familiar with each other, but there is no financial relationship or special employment arrangement."

"Employment?" The bald man laughed, "Such a young lad, even if he has special abilities, Exorcists wouldn't hire him specially."

Special employment was somewhat akin to a special appointment, which even held a more exceptional status than the Exorcists' own team members, hence the bald one's disbelief.

"So...what do we do with this video?" Tang Zhengyi asked.

The chubby man took a sip of the strong tea placed before him and said, "We can't report it to Exorcists, or else in addition to confiscating the video, they might also give us a warning."

"That's simple," the bald man suggested to the tall man opposite him, "Lao Liu, go find a buyer and sell it."

"President Er, are you saying to sell it to those interested?" Tang Zhengyi asked in surprise.

"Of course, those people love this stuff. It would be a shame to not make a profit from such an exciting video," President Er said, turning to the headquarters on the video, and inquired, "Does anyone have a better idea?"

"No objections," the man seated at the center on the video side nodded.

"Then get moving on that contact, Lao Liu," President Er commanded.

"If the video isn't uploaded to the platform, what about Yan Junze..." Tang Zhengyi hurriedly interjected.

"Offer him a sum of money, just say our company bought it, but considering the impact, we've decided not to include it in the platform's video library for the time being," President Er responded.

"How much money?" Tang Zhengyi asked again.

President Er tapped his forehead with his index finger and said, "You decide."

...

"Twenty-eight thousand?!"

Just after school, Yan Junze received a call from Tang Zhengyi, who stated that the Back-faced Woman's video wouldn't be broadcast for now, but the company would pay to acquire it, offering "twenty-eight thousand."

Yan Junze had not expected that even if the video was not broadcasted, he could still make money off it.

Even though he wasn't aware of the market value, the amount of money offered was far from his expectation.

But there was no helping it; Yan Junze was well aware that he had no channels to sell this type of video. If he tried to sell it online, it would certainly be seized by Exorcists first, and drawing further attention would be even worse.

Given that his family's savings were already modest, this sum of money was better than nothing for Yan Junze.

Yan Junze simply responded with an ambivalent, standard-issue reply: "Heh heh."

"That settles it then. The money will be transferred to your account registered on the platform within a week; be sure to check for it," Tang Zhengyi said, "Also, someone will come to collect the filming equipment tomorrow. Thanks for your cooperation recently."

Yan Junze: "Heh heh."

"I've got more good news. After deliberation, our company decided to promote your 'Night Traveling Puppy' account to Honorary Master of Spirit Exploration. In the future, if you have more videos to upload, they will be given priority display on the platform's homepage. Donations and other user payments will be split fifty-fifty with the platform, not at forty-sixty," Tang Zhengyi added.

"Heh heh." Yan Junze hung up the call, his feelings mixed and hard to articulate.
