Chapter 30 Skateboarding on supercars, the budget is on fire

Wang Yun launched himself into the air with his skateboard, executing a flawless 180-degree spin. At that moment, he and his skateboard seemed in perfect harmony.

With a deafening thud, the skateboard landed heavily on top of the Lamborghini. The resounding impact vibrated through the luxury supercar, jolting the senses of the wealthy young driver inside.

Completely bewildered, the rich second-generation driver couldnt make heads or tails of what had just slammed onto his cars roof. Before he could collect his thoughts, he saw a skateboard glide across the front windshield of his prized vehicle, leaving behind a conspicuous scratch.

What the hell! the young man blurted out, his eyes nearly popping out of their sockets as he watched the mysterious figure descend from the roof of his Lamborghini.

In the blink of an eye, that figure was back on his skateboard, accelerating swiftly straight ahead into the intersection.

Cars were zipping across, but Wang Yun showed no signs of slowing down. Instead, he targeted the nearest car and accelerated once again.

Drivers in the surrounding cars looked on, utterly flabbergasted, as Wang Yun sped up to latch onto a nearby sedan. Effortlessly bending down, he grabbed hold of the cars rear bumper.

Following the sedan, Wang Yun changed directions and darted off, his movements as fluid and graceful as a cloud drifting across the sky.

Damn, what did I just see? Did he just skate right over the top of a Lamborghini?

The budget is burning, seriously burning! That Lamborghini has to be the latest model, worth at least seven million yuan. The damages, scratched paint, possibly even the hood, could cost up to a million to repair!

A million? With depreciation costs for the repairs, it might even go up to two million!

This is too cool, isnt it? Jumping onto a supercar and skating right over it?

The producers heart must be bleeding right now. Theyll have to pay for this, haha! This is what a real blockbuster looks like.

The viewers watching the livestream once again erupted into a frenzy of excitement.

Skating right over a Lamborghini, effortlessly grabbing onto another car to change direction, and then departing with style. Only two words could describe this sceneabsolutely epic.

Damn it, hes agile!

From behind, Chen Minghao and his motorcycling crew were in hot pursuit of Wang Yun. Witnessing Wang Yun seamlessly vault over a supercar and accelerate into the distance, their faces flushed with a mix of awe and embarrassment.

Chen Minghao was particularly annoyed. He had previously boasted in front of millions of online viewers that if he failed to catch Wang Yun, hed do a handstand and inhale motorcycle exhaust fumes. Failing to capture Wang Yun now would make him a colossal laughingstock.

Go, go, go! After him!

Vroom! Vroom! Vroom!

At that moment, Chen Minghao had no choice but to grit his teeth and brace himself to run a red light.

Saomao, his expression turning grim, immediately activated the communication system to report to Captain Zhang Xingchen, Sir, we need to keep Wang Yun under constant surveillance. If we can keep eyes on him, he wont get away.

Roger that!

Simultaneously, in the command center room, Zhang Xingchen received the teams update and took a deep, tension-filled breath. His face was already glossed with a sheen of sweat. This was their third attempt at capturing Wang Yun. He had been so sure of success, even preemptively celebrating with Shen Hao, that he never foresaw things would come to such an intense, unexpected situation.

This Wang Yun is truly an anomaly, Zhang Xingchen muttered, his eyes bloodshot as he quickly activated the street surveillance and stared intently at the screens.

Calm down, Wang Yun hasnt escaped yet. Theres a 50% chance of catching him if you dont lose sight of him, that probability goes up to 80%, Jiang Youshan offered, looking over at Zhang Xingchen.

Exactly, Captain Xingchen. Now more than ever, you need to keep a cool head, Liu Qingqing added, her gaze filled with sympathy. Anyone could see that Zhang Xingchen was under tremendous stress.

Listen, Xingchen, if anyone should be panicking right now, its the production team. Theyre burning through the budget, literally. Were talking about one to two million down the drain, Shen Hao chimed in, laughing.

Hehe!

His remark elicited chuckles from those around him.

Zhang Xingchen managed a smile, nodding as he rubbed his hands together. This is my third arrest attempt. Failing again would be a huge blow to my credibility. Senior Jiang Youshan is right, theres still a chance.

He nodded resolutely, his eyes piercingly focused on the surveillance feed. In that moment, his demeanor shifted dramatically, fully embodying his role as a patrol captain. Jiang Youshan and others silently nodded in approval.

***

Captain Xingchen looks pretty tense, said one of the viewers.

Well, its his third capture attempt, so a little tension is to be expected. But honestly, even if he fails this time, can you blame him? Wang Yun is a monster, another viewer commented.

Shen Hao is hilarious! The ones who should really be on edge are the production crew. Their budget is going up in smoke, added a third viewer, chuckling.

In a room next door, a team of producers and staff were seated.

Mr. Executive Producer, the budget really is burning. We have to compensate the car owner at least one to two million, a staff member pointed out nervously.

Hehe, one to two million is chump change. Just look at our viewing figures. Weve shattered all previous records. We can afford it, the producer responded, legs crossed, even lighting a cigarette and inhaling deeply.

One to two million? Thats a drop in the bucket compared to our historic viewership. Money well spent, Id say, the producer thought to himself.
