Chapter 278 (2/2)

She did not dare to cause random mess onto such an extremely popular work. If not, her destiny might be reversed, and that was not something funny.

The male protagonist Zhang Haolie was extremely popular. The popularity of the work only served to boost his own popularity. He was just one step away from becoming an iconic character. Unfortunately, he was not a female. Or else, Zhao Youyue would be able to her first ever ‘easy win.’

However, due to the explosive popularity of “The 4WD God”, it wouldn’t be very difficult to create a highly popular female character. She had to be unique in her own way. She had to be formidable.

This would depend on Zhao Youyue’s own imagination. The more the better, without ruining the work.

She only needed to possess a female character and conquer the invincible male protagonist once. That would be more than enough for the audience to remember her.

However, she sensed that the scriptwriters of the original anime would never approve of such a plot. Ultraman would never be defeated by any monster. Even if he were to be defeated by one, that monster should probably be the ultimate monster which had been lurking about and built up with layer after layer of foreshadowing, not by a little monster that suddenly pops out of nowhere.

If there are any flaws in this anime, it would be the fact that none of the female mini 4WD players had left a deep impression on the kids yet. The female players were mostly passerbys. Having a passerby defeat the male protagonist all of a sudden would make no sense.

The scriptwriter would immediately notice the oddity, and dismiss the results of that ‘intoxicated’ state.

Zhao Youyue had even done some research on the anime’s scriptwriter. His name was Tian Jun. This anime was his third mini 4WD-based work. His first two animes had obviously paved the way for this third one. It was also the best in all aspects, among all three animes.

The third anime had even adopted a newer, updated art style. The anime would not have been as popular without it.

Zhao Youyue is always well-prepared when she resolves herself to take something seriously. She had not yet thought of any breakthrough ideas. Therefore, she chose to finish all the previous content first.

She even entertained the thought of not even being a player, but as a competition commentator or a mini 4WD developer. However, the named female characters were all primary school students. They were the same age as the male protagonist Zhang Haolie. It made no sense for a primary female student to be a commentator or a researcher.

Moreover, Zhao Youyue did not know the anime’s scriptwriter. It would be very troublesome to get him to create an elder female side character. After all, this was a long-running anime. It was not so easy to add a new character out of the blue.

Besides, the viewers have grown familiar with these primary female students with names. They had accumulated a degree popularity. She would just need to put in some effort and the female character would amaze the audiences!

She zeroed in on a particular character. It would be a female mini 4WD player. Now, she had to find a way to make her stand out among the kids and receive her next high popularity card!

Zhao Youyue was currently out of ideas. Therefore, she bought a mini 4WD ‘The Last Saber’ model used by Zhang Haolie on her way to school that day. It was the second generation saber, similar to ‘Victory Charge.’ She started to assemble the mini 4WD excitedly during recess…

The class rep Bai Yunshan gazed over her shoulder angrily. “This Zhao Youyue is messing about again. Is she a primary student?”

It was already the middle of September. One of the more recent concerns in school was the coming Autumn Sports event. This was not good news for the Arts intensive class. They did not want to participate in the sports event. None of them were athletic. The last thing they would want is to take part in the scariest sports event —— the 3,000-meter long run!

That event would murder them!
