As expected, without any objections, the script for "A World Without Thieves" was approved and filming could officially begin.

Shen Fang also took leave to start her internship ahead of schedule.

First, they filmed the scenery at the Heavenly Palace. Fu Biao, who played a wealthy businessman, was threatened by Andy Lau and Zeng Li, a pair of thieves, and they were tricked into stealing a Mercedes-Benz.

Then everyone gathered and prepared to depart for Gansu.

Not long after they arrived, some people started to feel unwell. Zeng Li was the first to collapse from altitude sickness. Li Lianhua, Fan Wei, and Feng Yuanzheng followed suit, each one relying on a ventilator for oxygen.

Following closely behind, Feng Kuzi also collapsed, and staff members began to experience altitude sickness one after another. Only Shen Fang, Hua Zai, and Huang Bo were unaffected.

Seeing this situation, there was no other way, so Shen Fang spent money to assemble a medical team to stay with the film crew. It took several days of recuperation before they finally recovered a little.

"Lili, have something to eat." Shen Fang brought over roasted yak meat, meat patties, and millet porridge to Zeng Li.

Zeng Li put down her book: "Don't keep coming over to bring me food. If people see this, they'll definitely gossip."

Shen Fang smiled and said, "It's alright. I'll send some not only to you, but also to them. Eat quickly, you haven't had a proper meal in days."

Zeng Li felt nauseous looking at the meat in front of her: "Take this away, I don't want to eat it, I'll just have some porridge."

"That won't do. You need to replenish your protein. Eat some, I'll feed you. Be good, open your mouth, ah."

Zeng Li had no choice but to open her mouth and force herself to eat two bites before she couldn't swallow any more. She refused to eat anymore, and Shen Fang couldn't do anything about it. He could only bring over some small cakes for Zeng Li to eat, something high in sugar.

After taking care of Zeng Li, they went to Li Lianhua's side. Li Lianhua had a particularly severe reaction and had just received an injection. This place was not only sparsely populated, but also had very poor medical facilities. The medical team they found only had 8 people, and they were naturally overwhelmed with taking care of a film crew of nearly 100 people. Not only Shen Fang, but also Huang Bo, Hua Zai and others were helping to take care of them.

"Thank you, Mr. Shen," Li Lianhua said weakly, supporting herself with her hands.

"No, don't move. Goodness, just lie there. Are you hungry? Well, I don't think you can move anyway. Shall I feed you something?"

Li Lianhua nodded a little shyly: "Thank you for your trouble."

"Hey, don't be so polite. With the crew like this, it's only right that those of us with good physical fitness take care of you. Besides, I'm a guy and you're a girl, so guys should take care of girls."

Li Lianhua chuckled: "President Shen, the way you're talking sounds so old-fashioned, like an old cadre speaking."

Shen Fang fed Li Lianhua spoonful by spoonful. It took five minutes to finish a bowl of rice. After finishing the porridge, he naturally fed her some meat. Li Lianhua didn't feel nauseous, so Shen Fang cut it with a knife and put it into her mouth with his hand.

Twenty minutes passed, and Li Lianhua really couldn't eat anymore. She shook her head at Chen Fang and said, "I'm not eating anymore."

Shen Fang nodded: "Okay, get some rest. You'll be fine in a couple of days. It's normal to feel unaccustomed to such a high altitude all at once."

Shen Fanggang was about to get up.

"Mr. Shen, can you chat with me for a while? I'm so bored by myself."

Upon hearing this, Shen Fang nodded and looked at Lianhua: "Alright, what do you want to talk about? I'll chat with you for a while."

"President Shen, why do you like Fatty Fan?"

Shen Fang smiled and said, "It's beautiful. I know there's a little conflict between you two, but where you are, you either move forward or fall behind. It's normal to have some friction."

"Beautiful?" Li Lianhua nodded; Fan Xiaopang was indeed very beautiful.

"Do you truly like her?"

"What you're saying is true. Of course I like her, and she's slowly getting better. She wasn't a bad person to begin with. Actually, the women in your circle are quite pitiful. This circle has all sorts of rules, and women are inherently a vulnerable group. If you want to become famous in this circle, you have to pay a high price, put in a hundred times the effort, and you have to be wary of your peers. It's hard for the people around you to trust you. There's all sorts of backstabbing and intrigue. To be honest, just thinking about it is exhausting."

"Mr. Shen, you really have a chivalrous heart. You seem to know a lot about the industry."

Shen Fang shrugged: "How could I not understand? After all, I work in the media industry."

Li Lianhua smiled and said, "Let me tell you about myself."

"Mr. Shen, my family is actually quite poor. You could say we were so poor we couldn't even afford to eat. I originally studied to be a teacher, but an event changed my life. I was able to get into the Shanghai Theatre Academy because I worked incredibly hard, and a mentor gave me confidence, which allowed me to enter this industry. But my family was poor, and my parents were seriously ill when I was in school. If I hadn't worked so hard to earn money, my parents might have passed away."

"Although I've been very tired over the years, I think it's worth it. More importantly, I love acting, I love being a big star, and I love being the center of attention. Of course, I also love money. But my bottom line has always been there."

Shen Fang smiled: "It's very direct and real. Knowing what you want, putting in the effort, and getting what you want—that's the meaning and value of living."

"Mr. Shen, what about you?"

"Me? I seem to be naturally very intelligent. I led my clan to wealth and achieved financial freedom before the age of 18. I was admitted to the Beijing Film Academy and became the first college student in the village. After that, everything went smoothly for me, and I enjoyed life."

Li Lianhua...

"Don't you experience any setbacks?"

"Well, there definitely will be solutions, but I'll take care of them one by one. After all, there's a solution to every problem. Often, if you think about things from a different perspective, you'll find the answer."
