Why it worked

The video uses a dramatic narrative with multiple characters and a central mystery, engaging viewers with dialogue and plot progression. The use of anime-style characters and a cyberpunk aesthetic likely appeals to a specific audience interested in such themes.

Summary

Two characters, Ricardo and Zilu, discuss a job for Ricardo to investigate Zilu's "little bro." Later, Zilu's "little bro" (Jia Qiu) meets with Werner and Jia Qiu reveals he works for "The Pinky," leading to a tense conversation about allegiances and secrets. The video ends with a plan to go to a ramen shop.

So why exactly did you call me here? Well you see I got a job for you. I need you to find out what my little bro's been up too! This feels personal. Why do I gotta do this? Well I can't send any of my other little bro's out. Then he'd know it was me. So why can't you just do it Ricardo? Well I got responsibilities and uh If you take care of the club I'll give you a reward Big brotherly duties to attend to. Plus I'll pay you like 50,000 Ahn For this! So are you in now! Hwell shit! You should've started with the 50,000 Ahn! Alright I'll find out what your little bro is up too! Hmm I wonder... Sorry, I'm late. I got tied up at work. It's okay! Where do you want to go today? I found a nice ramen shop nearby. Can we got to that? Sure we can! Which direction is it? It's actually the way you're facing right now. Ok let's go then! We can catch up on the way! So that's what the little twerp's doing. Hwell that's all done now. Though I can't say I blame the kid. I've definitely skipped my duties to be with my lady. Oh please do tell... How much did you hear of that? Heard the whole thing. You know what? Better question. What the hell are you doing here? Did you not realize that women is Zilu? Oh that's why she seemed familiar. The main reason I'm here is because she's been acting differently. She has ditched important meetings. As well as seeing Wei for his Suppression boluses. Which is unlike her. So I did my own investigation on the matter. Hwell seems like we both found what we came for so why don't we make like a tree and leaf No. Her relationship with that man could become messy given he's a member of the middle. Oh come on don't drag me into this! You're coming along whether you like it or not! So how was work? Tedious, but that's what comes of the job. So I was thinking... I don't really know what you do for work. I kinda want to...hey something wrong? We're being followed. You two can come out now. Seems you're quite perceptive. Even without the unique abilities of the bolus Hwell looks like we've been found out! Not helping. Anyways Zilu I'm sorry for the interruption, but can I talk to this young man? About what? This was not part of our agreement. You know that this relationship is not only putting yourself in danger, but him as well? That is not for you two to decide. Now please leave. Zilu, please let me handle this. I'll go talk to him. Good, let's go somewhere more private for this. Lei Heng, go chat with Zilu for a bit. Damn it why am I always the one getting thrown under the bus? Well my name is Werner and your name is? You can call me Jia Qiu. I work for the Pinky. The Pinky? If so that means... Yes, which is why we are talking. For both of your sakes. I need you to promise me that you will never speak of her allegiances. I, Werner, promise to keep this secret with me no matter the consequences. Good. I trust Zilu's judgement on you. You have my support from now on. Look I'm sorry Zilu, but the pay was too good to pass up on! You should've thought about morals before stalking us! Lei Heng, you're lucky he's back. Now get out of here! You know everything now right? If you want, we can just end it here. Nah, I can work with this. But I caused you so much trouble and You're worth the trouble. Now let's go to that ramen shop, Ill pay of course. I... thank you for staying with me. Let's go now before it gets dark.

Another video of the AU I’ve been doing, also the 1k follower special. This video took so much more work than the others. I also used CapCut fully to edit and make this to hopefully improve the quality. This is my most ambitious project yet. About the video itself. Lei Heng, Zilu, Werner, Jia Qiu and Ricardo are all voiced by me. You can see this also as my first attempt of making a rareship. If you’re wondering about why or how this is possible. Well in this AU Zilu was never written up. Having quickly left taking Shi Yihau with her once the middle broke down the hotel. Meaning also that Werner and Zilu never met until Recently after the events of the spring cultivation. As for the why the video took SO long to make. It was both out of ambition and also of procrastination. I just got really burnt out recently with real world stuff, but I promised it would come out eventually and I finally got it done. This IS going to be the longest video on the account. I don’t think my head can handle anymore than this. One last thing. I can’t thank everyone enough for their support for my stuff. Without you I wouldn’t have the motivation to work on this and I would just be a chud. Overall I thank you all for your patience and for like the 2% that read all of this. Thank you. It means a lot that my voice can be heard even through text. Anyways enjoy the video!#limbuscompany #projectmoon #projectmoon🔑🌙 #ricardolimbuscompany #leihenglimbuscompany
