Fifteen yuan per square meter.
This price!
My god.
Can’t afford it!
Right as Li Feng was stunned,
the fighters had already packed up and were ready to retreat, leaving only two on duty here.
The control of these devices was simple: the computer was just an operation switch, which could activate some small functionalities, such as playing music. The real effect, however, did not come from it but from Little Two in the command room.
Through remote micro-control
they adjusted, simulated, and optimized non-"registered" sounds in real-time.
The two fighters had to watch it round the clock.
Although they weren’t afraid of someone taking it apart to crack the technology, they could not just toss it aside like weeds.
There were always people in the world with sticky fingers.
Fortunately, each device had a tracker. Once it moved more than a meter, it would automatically send an alarm signal. There was no fear of it being stolen, but this was not something to be disclosed publicly.
"Director Li, Assistant Chen, until next time." Before leaving, the lead fighter greeted the two.
Watching the backs of the fighters.
Li Feng looked again at the devices inside the venue. He really wanted to take one apart to study it and see what high technology it really was, but it seemed that others didn’t want them touching the devices at all.
Beside him,
Assistant Chen was reporting good news over the phone.
"... Yes, that’s right, they’ve already installed and tested it. The effect is fantastic, just like at the annual meeting that day. I believe this concert will absolutely astonish the audience... Yes... I understand..."
She spoke for quite a while.
Assistant Chen hung up the phone and sighed with relief.
Finally.
She had taken care of the most important thing.
What remained was just awaiting the start of the concert to make a major impact.
Although this device would face the market eventually, its "debut" known to outsiders was also a significant publicity event. Assistant Chen, of course, wanted this device to be used permanently by their boss afterward.
Unfortunately,
their boss didn’t have the capital to guarantee this device’s "stage."
"Assistant Chen, what background does this company have?" Li Feng inquired on the side.
Upon hearing this, Assistant Chen smiled slightly, knowing Li Feng would ask this.
She picked what she could say.
"A very impressive background. The company’s boss is rich. This time, it is also because our Manager Wang attended their company’s annual meeting that they prioritized us to test this system. Comet Group is one of their holding companies."
Li Feng’s face changed. He exclaimed in astonishment, "You’re saying their boss holds Comet Film and Television Cultural Media Group? Are you serious?"
Comet Group.
A behemoth that had risen almost indomitably.
Rich and influential—he had heard about it, including the many second-generation figures inside.
It seemed that the deputy city manager’s son also worked there, serving as the deputy general manager—this Li Feng had inadvertently learned. Such a powerful group, with a market value exceeding tens of billions, was actually one of its holding companies.
Then there was no doubt about its background.
Awesome is the word.
"Director Li knows too, huh?" Assistant Chen asked knowingly.
Li Feng grimaced and said, "How could I not know this company? Now that Comet Film and Television has such a big name, sweeping the global movie market, if I didn’t know about it, I should retire. I just never knew who their boss was. If I have the chance, I would like to meet him." n𝚘𝚟𝚙𝚞𝚋.𝚌o𝚖
"Me too," Assistant Chen said helplessly.
Li Feng’s words just now had sounded a bit like he was testing her; she had no choice but to pretend she didn’t know Tang Qing, even though they had only met once and hardly spoken.
Introduce them.
She didn’t have the qualifications.
Hearing Assistant Chen’s words, Li Feng was somewhat disappointed.
"Director Li, I’m busy, I need to pick up a few people..." Assistant Chen checked her watch and said.
These past few days, she had been extremely busy. The concert needed celebrity endorsements, and the reception work for local leaders, friends in the business community, and friends in the entertainment circle was partly her responsibility.
Understandingly, Li Feng smiled and said, "Don’t worry about me, I’ll just have a look around."
Watching Assistant Chen’s hurrying back
Li Feng turned his attention back to the devices in the venue.
The more he thought, the more tangled his mind became. In the end, he decided out of sight, out of mind, and went back to the office to handle some business, to kill time. Things would be better after tomorrow, otherwise just looking made his heart itch.
...
May 5th.
5:30 PM.
The audience began arriving at the Shanghai Stadium in succession.
The large enclosed venue, which could accommodate over ten thousand spectators, once again welcomed a massive crowd.
The transportation and security staff were also experienced enough to handle such scenes with ease; the local police station even deployed traffic police for temporary traffic control.
When Tang Qing and his group arrived, it was already 5:40.
They parked the car.
Qin Shiqi quickly jumped out first.
"Hurry, hurry, otherwise we’ll have to queue at the back."
Watching the dense crowd, Qin Shiqi urged.
"Don’t worry, we will use the VIP entrance; there’s no need to squeeze," Tang Qing said, rubbing Qin Shiqi’s little head. There was no way he would come to a concert if he had to queue in a long line.
In his previous life, he had a profound psychological shadow over queuing.
Official business, queue.
Travel, queue.
Seeing a doctor, queue.
Queuing was one thing, but what annoyed him most was that during travel, the serpentine line would meander back and forth, and a distance of several meters would take more than an hour to walk.
It was enough to kill someone.
Qin Shiqi, however, was not to be outdone. With a defiant look and a twirl of her eyes, she insisted, "Even if it’s the VIP entrance... there are many VIPs, not just us few."
"You always have an excuse,"
Her aunt indulgently tapped Qin Shiqi’s forehead.
It was the first time Qin Shiqi had seen so many people.
It was also her first time attending a celebrity’s solo concert.
She was a bit excited and started snapping away with her camera, planning to go back and have a good chat with her friends. If Tang Qing wasn’t mistaken, the events of this May holiday would turn into at least a two-hour story once Qin Shiqi got back.
She had been having too much fun these days.
Though Tang Qing often grumbled about Qin Shiqi, he was actually very happy inside.
Having a sister like her.
He could only indulge her.
"Wow, what a big house," Qin Shiqi exclaimed, jumping up and down as she looked at the ten-story building.
"Of course, it’s one of the top large-scale performance venues in the country. In terms of closed venues, it’s only slightly behind Beijing’s Workers Stadium. However, they are both quite old buildings," Tang Qing explained.
"It would be nice if that many people came to listen to me sing," Qin Shiqi said wistfully, gazing at the brightly lit massive structure.
Tang Qing blurted out, "Why would you go up there? To show off your tone-deafness?"
"You’re the one who’s tone-deaf, my singing is nice okay?" Qin Shiqi ’angrily’ glared at Tang Qing.
"Hehe."
"What are you laughing at?"
"Nothing, I just felt like laughing. Don’t ask me who Hehe is because I won’t tell you even if you ask."
"I, I’m not asking then, hmm. It’s just because my aunt isn’t here, otherwise she would have dealt with you for bullying your cute little sister. No way, I’m going to tattle when we get back and let her scold you over the phone..." Qin Shiqi counted Tang Qing’s misdemeanors on her fingers.
"Really? I’m so scared."
"Pfft, overdramatic expression, stiff movements, lack of sincerity in the eyes, zero points," Qin Shiqi disdainfully said.
"Still better than your negative points."
"You’re the one with negative points."
"With this face of mine, just standing there is acting, a solid eight points."
"Acting? More like pretty boy,"
"I’ll reluctantly accept that title, since my skin is fairer than yours, you’re just jealous."
"..."
Wherever Qin Shiqi was, laughter and joviality were never far behind.
When Qin Shiqi and Tang Qing were together, they could never keep quiet.
Everyone had long become accustomed to it, happily listening to the siblings banter. This was what family was all about, and their ’chats’ were responsible for most of the joy these past few days, a family blissfully enjoying their time together.
