Chapter 484: Chapter 484 – New Endorsement

Chapter 484: New Endorsement

Fang Zhao headed straight for Silver Wing Media’s headquarters after leaving Xue Jing’s place .

Fang Zhao kept a low profile en route . He noticed many more flying cars coming and going . The midair flying paths were also more congested . It seemed as though the whole area was busy .

“I don’t know what’s going on . The entertainment circle seems to have become much more lively . Those at the top of the golden pedestal are especially active . ” Nanfeng told Fang Zhao what he knew from the latest reports as he drove the flying car into Silver Wing Media headquarters’ underground parking space .

“Recently, all of a sudden, a lot of A-list celebrities are trying to become superstars . Superstars are trying to compete against global mega stars . I can’t help but get the feeling something is brewing . Boss, if you have connections, you should ask around,” Nanfeng said .

“No need . I’ll also be busy soon . ” Fang Zhao said as he exited the car .

“Oh? Does that mean that you know the reason already, Boss?”

“Mmhm . ”

Nanfeng heaved a sigh of relief . Although it appeared Fang Zhao had no intention of telling him anything now, at least the boss was aware and had plans .

“You find somewhere to rest for a bit,” Fang Zhao said before he left . He wouldn’t be spending too much time at the company .

“No need! I’ll wait in the car . There are some emails I still have to reply to . ”

Nanfeng expressed that he wouldn’t forget about doing work even while waiting in the car . He needed to show he was completely different from the two salted fishes Yan Biao and Zuo Yu!

Having improved his image in front of Boss, Nanfeng became more spirited . He wanted to become a manager too and help his boss make working arrangements .

He was getting closer and closer to his dream of becoming a manager!

Perhaps he would even be promoted really soon! Hehehe .

Two other company employees joined Fang Zhao to wait for the elevator . However, they faced away from Fang Zhao while waiting .

The two employees had noticed someone already waiting for the elevator, but other than that, they didn’t pay any more attention . Nowadays, most of the bigshots would have their flying cars land on their own levels in their personal parking lots . Those who squeezed in the underground parking space were either small timers or on the downturn . Even if anyone of importance was forced to use the underground parking space, they would at least be surrounded by assistants and bodyguards, right?

The two cast a sweeping glance at Fang Zhao when they got close . They didn’t take a good look at his face and first surveyed his body .

This person wasn’t decked out in any branded goods, so he could be ignored .

While waiting for the elevator, the two of them chatted casually .

“Recently, everyone in the company is busy . Even the elevators take forever now . ”

“It can’t be helped . The parking spaces upstairs all fill up very early, so underground is the only option for late arrivals like us . Hey, did you just see the news? The very popular online drama series from a while back is being jointly sued by close to a hundred retired veterans!” one of them said .

“I saw it . Quite a few of my chat groups were talking about this . Even the relevant departments are paying attention to it . Who would have expected a bunch of 150-year-old oldies to watch teen idol dramas just for the sake of seeing that so-called ‘Initial’ warship?”

“There were no issues previously because it was an online drama series meant for younger people . The ‘Initial’ warship was just an unimportant backdrop in the show . People watched it for the gorgeous idol rather than the spaceships, eh? I’m amazed there are really people who watch idol dramas for the military aspect . Someone even listed each and every mistake regarding the military industry . The arguments contain a lot of research . It’s a hot topic now . ” The employee relished over the controversy .

The investors of this drama series had earned bucket loads and were very pleased with the series before . It had been a great return on a low cost investment . However, things had suddenly turned for the worse

“Mmm, it’s actually understandable . The era of the ‘Initial’ warship ended almost two centuries ago . Most of the information online was removed, so it’s hard to tell whether the remaining information is real . Only the true veterans would be able to tell the difference . Actually, the production team got scammed too . For the series, they hired a consultant who is a reputable professor in the area of space flight . It looks like that professor is a phony . ”

“It’s hard to fault the professor though . A lot of people will embellish details, particularly for an entertainment series . Is it even possible to always be accurate? What’s the point of being so fussy? Discrepancies in the appearance of a warship are very normal . Two hundred years have passed . Who knows what the outdated stuff looked like? They’re just making a mountain out of a molehill . They must have too much free time in their retirement . ”

“It’s hard to say . Actually, I feel like someone just doesn’t like the series and wants to cause some trouble . ”

“That might be possible! This series stole quite a bit of the limelight some time back . ”

“Tsk, that’s deep . There’s suddenly so much havoc for the production team to deal with . I bet they’re anxiously trying to do damage control . ”

“Those behind this must be giggling in delight . Experts!”

Fang Zhao, who had heard the entire conversation clearly: “…”

He searched for this on the Internet .

The matter had started with Yanbei Retirement Facility taking the lead .

Fang Zhao was silent .

It was highly likely that the spark for this whole matter was because he had given Great-grandfather Fang an “Initial” model .

As he was in thought, another group of five came over .

The two standing in front of the elevator stopped talking and turned to the five newcomers . “Brother Ji!” They smiled and exchanged greetings .

“Brother Ji” casually acknowledged them and strode past them to Fang Zhao . “When did you return, Zhao God? If I knew you were coming, I would have invited you to have some tea . There’s a newly opened teahouse near here that is really good!”

Ji Polun had gone out for a meal with a few colleagues . He had noticed there were many cars heading to the mid-level garages, so he came to the underground parking space . He wasn’t in a rush for time . He had never expected to see Fang Zhao here .

The two who had just greeted Ji Polun: ?!!!

Fang Zhao?

The person behind us waiting for the elevator was Fang Zhao?!

They sneaked another glance . Indeed, it was Fang Zhao .

*Ding*

The elevator arrived .

Fang Zhao walked into the elevator . Ji Polun and his four friends followed behind .

Ji Polun had intentionally lagged a step behind to block off the elevator doors . The other two employees had wanted to shamelessly squeeze in but were left outside .

“Your elevator has also arrived . ” Smiling brightly, Ji Polun pointed at the opened elevator opposite them .

The two standing outside replied with smiles too, “Alright, Brother Ji and… Brother Zhao, you guys head up first . ”

The elevator doors closed in front of their faces . Both them were full of remorse and felt like crying .

What a good chance that was, arghhh!

That was Fang Zhao! His influence wasn’t just limited to Yanzhou . He was a global star!

If they could make connections, perhaps Fang Zhao could help lift them up .

It was rumored that Ji Polun had also gotten his big break by cozying up to Fang Zhao . Although he hadn’t yet become a true first-rate star, he now had many more opportunities on the global stage compared to the two of them .

“If we had just given him an extra look…”

How could they have first looked at his clothes?! They should have looked at his face!!

Wouldn’t they have recognized Fang Zhao right away?

“It feels like we just missed out on a hundred million dollars!”

Meanwhile, in the elevator, Ji Polun took this little bit of opportunity to talk to Fang Zhao .

“I just returned from shooting three drama series on Planet Wai . My intention was to rest for two months and take some time off . During today’s lunch, I made some plans to visit Planet Wai’s Peach Blossom Island . Oh right, Zhao God, do you know about the peach blossom garden? Planet Wai cultivated a type of luxuriant peach blossom that blooms all year round . With it, they created Peach Blossom Island, where you can witness a scene of peach blossoms raining down all around at any time . That is what the promo shows . It hasn’t officially opened to the public and nobody has verified whether it is true or not . However, it is going to open very soon,” Ji Polun said .

“Wouldn’t a trip to Planet Wai and back cost quite a bit?” Fang Zhao chuckled .

“Hehe, indeed, it’s quite a bit . I just received the payment for my prior work, and I want to reward myself . There weren’t many opportunities to explore Planet Wai’s attractions when filming . Due to time constraints, our movements were mostly restricted to being with the production team . This time, I intend to spend some money to go over for a relaxing vacation and enjoy myself . ”

“How are commodity prices in Planet Wai now? Are the expenses manageable?” Fang Zhao asked .

“Daily necessities are slightly more costly, but produce is cheap . Planet Wai has a new orchard where you can enter and eat while sightseeing! It is much bigger than the private orchards in Muzhou . Even Muzhou’s largest orchard would merely occupy a corner of it . You even have to drive in if you want to enter . Zhao God, do you want to go? We can go as a group . ”

“I currently have no plans to go over . Are you all going?” Fang Zhao asked .

A young actor raised his hand . “I won’t be going . I just bought a house and I’m still repaying the loan . Flights aren’t cheap . They would cost a big chunk of my savings . My pay isn’t as high as Brother Ji’s, and the company won’t reimburse expenses for personal activities . ”

Ji Polun expressed his sympathy and patted this guy’s shoulder . “Work hard . We will send you photos of Peach Blossom Island!”

Fang Zhao thought for a bit and said to this bunch, “Attractions can be visited at any time . It’s better to work hard for the upcoming period . ”

Ji Polun’s mind began to work .

Was there a hidden meaning behind Fang Zhao’s words?

He thought about the company big shots’ recent busy work arrangements .

Was this some inside news?

Ji Polun no longer cared about Peach Blossom Island or its orchards . Compared to his prospects, enjoyment could take a backseat first!

After Ji Polun and the others got off on their own floor, Fang Zhao changed to another elevator that would take him straight to the top floor conference room .

Midway, Fang Zhao received a message from Planet Wai’s commanding officer Huo Yi .

The message was very long and included images .

Fang Zhao, are you free? Bring your dog over to Planet Wai for a vacation!

Our Planet Wai has a new attraction . Have you heard of Peach Blossom Island? It’s a paradise where peach blossoms bloom all year round! It’s the only one of its kind!

We didn’t approach any other superstars and sought you out first . Come over and endorse our new scenic attraction!

We’ve even prepared a publicity campaign . I drew inspiration from an Old Era photograph . Using this, I came up with a brand new plan .

[High Definition Image]

Beneath the dancing rain of peach blossoms, twelve golden combat mechas stood glistening under the sunlight .

Huo Yi: Isn’t this awesome?!

Fang Zhao: “… . ”
