Depressive Screenwriter

"Overseas ratings have also topped the charts across the board?" Su Yan paused.

"Yes. There's no doubt that 'Code Geass' is the hottest TV series globally this year, bar none," Yumi Shinozaki said with a smile.

For the people of Xia, the mecha battles in 'Code Geass' were refreshing, and the same was true for foreigners.

"If things continue to develop like this, when the 'Gundam' series starts airing, your name, Su Yan, and that of Dimensional Pictures will be known throughout both Eastern and Western cultural circles. The entire Western market will be opened up. It's estimated that the market size of the company's various businesses will increase several times over by then."

This book is first published on 𝚝𝕨𝕜𝕒𝕟.𝕔𝕠𝕞.

"Let's not celebrate prematurely," Su Yan quickly said.

Although Su Yan understood that what Yumi Shinozaki said was correct, he was naturally wary of setting flags.

In the following weeks, the second and third episodes of the second season of 'Code Geass' were released one after another.

The plot pattern was largely the same as the first episode.

Zero reappeared, leading the Black Knights.

But the Britannian high command was well aware that Zero was Lelouch.

The problem now was that Lelouch was staying at Ashford Academy, acting brotherly with his younger brother Rolo, and it didn't seem like Lelouch was secretly reconnecting with the Black Knights.

But Suzaku and Rolo were both secretly suspecting that the new Zero was actually Lelouch, and not a masked puppet found by the Black Knights.

The plot shifted from finding out who Zero was in the first season to whether Zero was actually Lelouch in the second season.

However, the plot was not boring at all, and the quality of the script was even better than the first season, with viewership soaring to over 7.1% after the third episode aired.

By the end of October, Dimensional Pictures had also begun pre-promotion for the two films scheduled for release during the Spring Festival next year.

The handsome trailer footage from the third 'Rurouni Kenshin' movie, as well as the debut trailer for 'Howl's Moving Castle' featuring Su Yan as Howl and Zhuang Yuxin as Sophie, topped the trending searches in the Xia film industry.

Among Hayao Miyazaki's works in Su Yan's previous life, 'Howl's Moving Castle' also ranked in the top three or five and was considered one of Miyazaki's representative works. Of course, the special effects and large-scale scenes in this work were not particularly amazing, but as one of Su Yan's rare leading roles in recent years, his fans had high expectations.

Although 'Rurouni Kenshin' was handsome, everyone was definitely losing some of their freshness after seeing 'Kenshin' for three consecutive years, but Howl's appearance as a noble young man in 'Moving Castle' allowed Su Yan's fans to find the feeling of watching Su Yan's youth romance works again.

The news of the 'Rurouni Kenshin' TV series that was about to be established, as well as the 'Fate/stay night: Unlimited Blade Works' adaptation that was already on the agenda, coupled with a series of games.

Dimensional Pictures' works had already been scheduled for the next year or two, and their audience covered fields such as TV series, movies, and games.

Colleagues in Xia and abroad could see what Su Yan wanted to do. Relying solely on film and television dramas could only earn so much money, but creating a work IP and launching derivative sequels of games and film and television dramas every year or two was sustainable development. However, they could only envy him, as these operations could not be learned simply by wanting to.

Soon, October ended, and November arrived.

Although the plot of the second season of 'Code Geass' was a bit exaggerated at the beginning, the addition of the Dragon Confederation forces in this season led to frequent large-scale battle scenes, and not only was the plot online, but also the newly launched handsome mecha further boosted the work's influence worldwide.

Fortunately, the peripheral production factories that Su Yan had laid out a few years in advance also expanded their production this year, so there was no situation where production could not keep up. Wherever the TV series content was broadcast, the corresponding pre-designed and produced mecha models were also launched on the market.

Although the prices were high, fans were very receptive, and even overseas orders were higher than domestic orders.

Some world-renowned mobile phone, computer, automobile, and technology manufacturers also came to the door, wanting Su Yan to jointly develop co-branded products.

Su Yan also had to devote a lot of energy to this aspect.

Although he preferred acting, if he wanted Dimensional Pictures to develop into an IP giant company in the future, Su Yan would definitely have to shift his work focus from actor to chairman of the company.

Soon, the plot of the second season of 'Code Geass' was broadcast to the sixth episode.

The plot has now begun to advance the main line.

Why are there so many Geass ability users in the Britannian Empire?

What is C.C.'s true identity, and what is her wish?

Who is the newly appeared character V.V.?

And, Shirley, who all the audience thought had already left the scene, returned at the beginning of the second season.

Although her memory was altered by Lelouch, she was still a student at Ashford Academy, still a member of the student council, and still in the same school as Lelouch.

Then, during the year when Lelouch's memory was altered, studying at Ashford Academy and living with his fake brother Rolo, she once again fell in love with this stranger named Lelouch.

Even if you forget the person you loved once, you will still love them a second time.

Originally, such a plot revived the Shirley party, which had almost disappeared.

Although C.C. was infinitely beautiful and charming, not all Lelouch fans liked her.

Everyone was still looking forward to Lelouch and Shirley starting over.

But the enhanced version of Orange-kun appeared in the sixth episode.

Because he was publicly controlled by Lelouch with inexplicable language in the first episode, which was actually Geass ability, leading to the release of Zero and thus earning the title of Orange-kun, he obtained the ability to clear other people's Geass abilities with the help of V.V..

When he used this ability indiscriminately in the city, the Geass ability applied to Shirley by Lelouch was lifted.

She also recalled her memories with Lelouch because of this.

And therefore became emotionally broken.

Originally, Rolo, the younger brother sent by the Britannian Empire to monitor Lelouch, was turned against Lelouch, making him think that Lelouch's feelings for him were real, allowing this young man who had never had a family to be willingly used by Lelouch.

But in this episode, because Shirley finally figured out her feelings for Lelouch, made up her mind to help Lelouch, and then said to her fake brother Rolo that she wanted to find Lelouch's happiness and help his real sister Nunnally return...

Shirley was ruthlessly killed by Rolo.

She fell in a pool of blood and looked weakly at Lelouch who rushed over. Lelouch used Geass to order her not to die again and again, but it was useless.

[No matter how many times, I will still fall in love with you. This is fate! Even if I am reborn, reincarnated, it will still be like this, so, enough]

Shirley's last words, her final fate in this episode, can be called the biggest topic since the start of the second season of 'Code Geass'.

And this is also the biggest turning point in the second season of 'Code Geass'.

Before this episode, Lelouch could still hide behind the scenes and pretend to be a student, playing house with his fake brother Rolo.

But Rolo did such a thing for the sake of his real sister Nunnally not to come back and take away his brother, making the entire house game unable to continue.

No mistake, one first, one hair, one inside, one content, one at a time!

Lelouch's red, murderous eyes at the end of the sixth episode became the final scene of this episode.

That night, the Shirley party collectively lost hope.

Su Yan's fan base broke down again and cursed loudly.

"Su Yan, if you can't write a script, give me the pen, I'll write it."

"The purpose of bringing Shirley out in the second season is to kill her again?"

"Are you human! Why would you do this?"

"It was enough to make her lose her memory in the first season! Why kill her in the second season? After watching it late at night, I think of Shirley as soon as I close my eyes, and I can't sleep."

"This dog brother Rolo. I used to think he was pitiful, but now give me death, all of you give me death!"

"A fake is a fake. Su Yan, if you don't let this Rolo die, I will be a hater for life."

"There's no need, Rolo himself is pitiful. He was trained by the Britannian Empire since he was a child and lacked family affection. Now that he is with Lelouch and has obtained these, it is normal to worry about Nunnally returning and taking these away?"

"Normal my ass? He is obviously a fake himself, doesn't he know? What's the use of killing Shirley? Lelouch will bring Nunnally back sooner or later, he has the guts to kill Nunnally."

"The later plot won't really be like this, right? Rolo killed Nunnally? And then betrayed Lelouch?"

"That's too disgusting! Lelouch did so many things for Nunnally, if Nunnally also dies, then Lelouch's life will be a big failure."

"With Su Yan's habits, he seems to like making the protagonist despair. Lelouch will probably only despair if Nunnally dies."

"I'm a little afraid to watch. I feel like this drama is going in a tragic direction! Euphemia, this half-sister, is already dead, is Nunnally, this sister with the same mother, still far away?"

"Lelouch won't kill Suzaku too later, right."

"Suzaku can die. This character is so annoying."

"I can't stand it a bit. I originally thought I was a C.C. party, but seeing Shirley's death still makes my heart ache a little. Old thief, please restrain yourself a little, don't let this drama have a depressing ending!"

"Is it possible that the real trump card of this drama is that C.C. is also dead."

"C.C. won't die, right? She is an immortal witch!"

"Whether she dies or not depends on how Su Yan writes it!"

"Hehe, if C.C. dies, then Su Yan's Dimensional Pictures branch in the Tokyo area will be destroyed by C.C. fans from all over the world."

The second season of 'Code Geass', more than a month after its premiere, the plot continued to rise, and the audience's emotions became more and more high. The sixth episode ended with Shirley's death, giving a group of 'Code Geass' fans a head-on blow.

Everyone thought that the most虐情节 of this drama was the death of Euphemia in the previous season, but now, they are a little unsure.

Su Yan seems to have started his mysterious plot development again.

Anyway, no matter how the plot turns, in short, depression is the theme!
