Chapter 92: Promotional Trailer
Due to Yaqing's secrecy measures, it took a whole month for Kiana and the others to finish all the voice recordings. And with less than two months until the summer release of the movie, the promotional tasks were also proceeding in an orderly manner.
The poster was released.
Then came the trailer.
Although the audience was cursing on the surface, their bodies were very honest.
The trailer for Honkai II: Queen's Advent went viral in a short period of time. Especially the movie's title, Queen's Advent, made many viewers who had seen the first part curious enough to click on it.
Trailer Title: Raise Your Sword to the Heavens
[The trailer begins with a flash of the Honkai IP logo.
A massive transport warship sails across the sky.
"We are about to enter the headquarters' airspace," Himeko scoffs. "Heh, if we had the Hyperion, these enemies would be nothing."
"Stop complaining, Himeko."
Theresa's voice sounds out, and the reason why the Hyperion was not deployed is also revealed to the audience, while also planting a seed of foreshadowing.
After a CG animation of burning special effects, just as the Helios is about to break through the defensive perimeter of Schicksal HQ's airspace, an unknown communication connects to the interior of the Helios.
Theresa, in the command room, looks at Otto appearing on the large screen.
Otto is dressed in purple bishop's robes, his left hand supporting his head, his green eyes full of amusement and disdain, yet his tone is extremely affectionate. "What do you plan to do with that toy, Theresa? Heh, go back乖乖, everyone has a rebellious phase. I won't blame you for your childishness."
"Still as gentle as ever, Grandpa," Theresa says, her head lowered. Her voice overlaps with the sound of the Helios's main cannon charging up.
"But..."
The Helios's main cannon finishes charging. A thick beam of energy disperses the clouds, blasting a large hole in the defensive wall of Schicksal HQ's airspace.
The screen suddenly goes black, only Theresa's voice echoing.
"This is my answer!"
"This time, I will not yield to you again!"
The trailer ends, and the logos of the Schicksal and Anti-Entropy production companies flash.]
"I have to say, this part of the plot and Arahato's 'Let the tyrant in the sky witness the shattering of the stars' have a similar ring to them."
"Anti-Entropy collaboration! I'm chasing this movie!"
"I hope it's not like the last movie."
In the Golden Courtyard, Kevin was watching the trailer for the third Honkai movie with Su and Sakura. After the trailer ended, he said, "Isn't Theresa affiliated with Schicksal's Far East Branch? Why would she attack Schicksal HQ?"
"Kevin, that's a good question. But you shouldn't be asking us. You should go ask the lord scriptwriter upstairs who has locked himself in his room," Su teased.
"Forget it. He's like he's possessed, locking himself in his room to write the script. And, I heard that even the script he gives to the voice actors is incomplete," Kevin said, peeling an orange. He tasted a slice, his expression unchanging, and handed it to Su.
"I don't like oranges," Su said, well aware of Kevin's nature. He would never share a second bite of something delicious.
Su handed it to Sakura.
Sakura trusted Su very much and ate a slice without a second thought. Her pretty face immediately puckered from the sourness. She quickly took out a tissue and spat it out, glaring at Kevin and Su. "You two!"
Seeing that someone had fallen for it, Kevin didn't pretend anymore and quickly took out a tissue to spit it out as well.
Su held up his hands innocently.
Sakura angrily picked up the box of tissues and threw it at Kevin.
Kevin caught it and said, "Sakura, if I gave it to you, you definitely wouldn't eat it. Su gave it to you, and you ate it. How can you blame me for this?"
Sakura angrily picked up another orange from the platter and threw it at Kevin.
...
St. Freya Academy dormitory area.
Kiana and the others were watching the trailer together.
"Great-Aunt, you're so cool!" Kiana said, wrapping her arms around Theresa's petite body, but then couldn't help but laugh. "But Great-Aunt, you're over 50 in the movie, right? You've finally figured it out. How can there be a 50-year-old crown prince in the world?"
"Kiana!" Theresa's eyes widened in anger.
And Himeko, on the side, after hearing this, also couldn't help but say, "Theresa, Otto is really spoiling you. Even though you've already hit the main gate of Schicksal HQ, he's still making excuses for you. It's just that the excuse..."
Senti was laughing wildly. "A rebellious phase... a rebellious phase that's 40 years late, hahahahaha."
Fu Hua patted Senti, telling her to tone it down a bit.
...
Golden Courtyard, second floor. Kevin's so-called "possessed" Yaqing was currently lying on his bed, his hands behind his head, staring at the white ceiling, his mind wandering.
He was thinking.
After this movie ends, the Honkai series web dramas will also be on the agenda. He was just hesitating.
Anti-Entropy: Origin and Anti-Entropy: Invasion. Which one is easier to produce?
Or perhaps, produce London Holiday?
It wasn't that Yaqing couldn't write the content, but that he was hesitating which one to choose.
"Ahhhh!!!"
Yaqing had a slight case of choice paralysis.
Mobius, who was walking down from upstairs, heard the wail coming from Yaqing's room and shook her head, as if pitying someone so young for going crazy.
"What's wrong with him now?" Kevin asked.
"Who knows?" Mobius said irritably, sitting on the sofa, watching the trailer on the TV. "Have you guys finished watching? Any thoughts?"
"No thoughts. I'm completely lost," Sakura replied.
"Looking at the poster, it should be about Kiana and Himeko as the main characters, but the trailer is from Theresa's perspective, raising the sword of rebellion to the heavens," Su said.
At this moment, Yaqing finally came out of his bedroom.
"Well, well, our great scriptwriter finally deigns to come downstairs," Kevin teased.
"Mmm, and our little follower surprisingly didn't go to work with MEI today," Yaqing didn't take it lying down and retorted directly.
"Hehe."
Once broken, Yaqing emerges!
Yaqing subconsciously sat down next to Mobius, looked at the Honkai trailer on the TV, and said, "Why are you guys watching this crappy trailer?"
Mobius picked up the remote and switched to a cartoon.
Seeing the two watching the cartoon with great interest, Kevin and the others were too embarrassed to change the channel.
The three looked at each other.
Sakura showed an indescribable expression.
"Yaqing, have you finished writing your script?" Kevin said, starting a new topic.
"Which one are you talking about?" Yaqing asked casually, his eyes on the cartoon.
"What?"
"I've written the plots for three web dramas. Which one are you asking about?" Yaqing repeated.
"What?"
Now, Kevin, Sakura, and Su were all shocked.
"So the movie has already finished production?"
"More or less. Now we're just waiting for the screening schedule."
Today, the Golden Courtyard was as harmonious as ever.
