Chapter 216 This is our head office, with the ultra-high-level executives (revised)

The opening ceremony was a great success, with media present and many actors dressed up to look presentable.

Everyone was humble, friendly, positive, and united. Even during the interview, they were courteous to each other and spoke highly of one another.

Fang Ke watched as several young actresses who were tearing each other apart yesterday were now holding hands and being interviewed together like sisters, praising each other. She was truly amazed.

Although she had arranged interviews, today's interviews were almost all group interviews. During the group interviews, she didn't want to speak up and work overtime unless she was specifically asked to.

Because of the long distance involved, many media outlets have secured ample travel expenses to stay in Monterey Park for several days and take a vacation. Of course, their main task is still to film and report on the film crew, as well as conduct exclusive interviews and behind-the-scenes footage.

So there's no rush on the day filming starts. The production team gave the media a week-long open house, where they could stay at the foot of the mountain, go up every day to see if there was any exciting content, and then they could relax.

Fang Ke was informed that an additional scene on the grassland would be filmed that afternoon. The production assistant asked Fang Ke if he could ride a horse and if he needed a stunt double. Fang Ke raised an eyebrow and said smugly, "I can ride all the way from here to the capital."

Stagehand: "...You'd better be serious."

In short, after the lively opening ceremony and the subsequent trending topic, everyone went back to doing what they were doing. Wu Cong, the "King of Currying," wouldn't give anyone a chance to slack off, and some people were called back to the set to film.

Fang Ke was among them, so there was nothing that could be done but to have Yes wait for her.

Ye Si didn't mind, thinking it was normal to prioritize work, and told her to focus on filming and not to worry about him.

Fang Ke felt that this highlighted the importance of dating a mature man: easygoing, supportive, doesn't interfere with each other's work, and always available when needed. What more could you ask for?

She smacked him on the shoulder, her face radiating righteous indignation, "Good brother!"

Yes: "..."

Ye Si watched her turn and run away, not understanding how he had suddenly gone from boyfriend to best friend.

The man chuckled and prepared to go back to his car to rest for a while. His computer was in the car, and if he had nothing to do in the afternoon, he could handle some of the backlog of work.

"Mr. Ye...Mr. Ye?"

Xu Jingming, the project manager representing Shenhe Media at the opening ceremony, finally found an opportunity to greet Ye Si.

He didn't dare to recognize him at first, but when he saw the person at the opening ceremony, the more he looked, the more he looked like him, and the more alarmed he became.

Xu Jingming immediately sent a message to the Jingzhou headquarters, asking to confirm whether General Manager Ye had attended the opening ceremony. Why hadn't anyone notified him?

At first, everyone said it was impossible, and how could they, as mere pawns, know the president's whereabouts? But then, inside information came in time, saying that Yes was indeed not in the company, and that his assistant had even changed his flight to Montreal.

Xu Jingming knew then that it was 99% true.

When Xu Jingming was giving a report, he glanced at Ye Si from afar, but Ye Si had such a strong elite aura and professional skills that he could make you jump back to a specific page and line and ask you what the Xth data point was all about.

...This kind of man was so handsome that even he, a man himself, thought he was incredibly handsome, which is why he left such a deep impression on me.

At first glance today, I thought there was something wrong with my eyes. I secretly observed for a long time, and only after receiving timely news from the company did I dare to come and confirm with Yes.

"You...why did you come in person? No one even informed me."

Yes asked, somewhat puzzled, "Who are you?"

Xu Jingming quickly introduced himself, saying that he and his assistant were there as company representatives to attend the opening ceremony of "The Legend of Wan Yue".

After chatting for a while, Ye Si remained humble throughout, which made Xu Jingming both sincerely impressed and excited.

Yes told him to go about his business, saying that he was just here on vacation and didn't need to worry about him.

Xu Jingming dared not be indifferent. In order to show how responsible and caring they were about the crew, he recounted everything that had happened since the start of filming, picking out the most important details.

Yes listened patiently, then suddenly interrupted him, asking, "You said three major fugitives were on the run here a few days ago? And the film crew even ran into them?"

"Yes... it alerted the border police. Because this is considered a high security risk, the crew reported it to us. Fortunately, everything was handled well, no one was injured, and the three people were arrested. It's truly a blessing from heaven."

Xu Jingming, getting excited, said, "President Ye, you don't know how amazing it is. I heard that when they were arrested, a female warrior descended from the sky and beat them so badly they didn't even recognize their own mothers. One of them was even tied to a tree and stripped naked, confessing his crimes over and over again. Everyone was dumbfounded, but he confessed to all his crimes without hesitation... So the criminal police had an early New Year's celebration. Not only did they catch three major fugitives in one go, but the evidence was also conclusive and they couldn't deny it... It's truly amazing."

"A female war goddess who fell from the sky...?"

Yes repeated his words and let out a cryptic laugh.

Old Xu also felt that it might be too exaggerated, and quickly tried to explain, "I guess those fugitives were hallucinating from being frozen in the snow and were just talking nonsense, but there are indeed many things on the scene that cannot be explained... I heard from the director that they even wanted to present a banner, but it scared the director quite a bit, saying that none of them were involved in this. But thinking about it, it makes sense, there are no superheroes in this world, let alone a female superhero."

Yes's lips curved slightly, as if he had just heard a story, and he suddenly said, "That's not necessarily true."

"ah?"

"Alright, you can go ahead with your work."

"Okay, Mr. Ye, how many days will you stay here? If you're interested, you can also visit their film set."

Xu Jingming suggested with a smile that Ye Si's approachable manner made him feel more comfortable saying a few more words.

Yes pressed the key in his hand, and the car door unlocked. He suddenly paused before getting into the car.

"How strange. I wasn't interested at first, but after hearing your story, I'm a little interested. Let's go, get in my car and go together."

He actually got to ride in the boss's car! What incredible luck he had!

Old Xu was beaming with joy, and without saying a word, he fawned over his wife and got into the car.

Su Yao was just about to talk to Ye Si alone when she saw that he was finally alone. But then he was entangled by a strange man, and the two of them drove off together. When she chased after them, all she could see was exhaust fumes.

"hateful……"

Frustrated, Su Yao called Yi Mohan again, but there was a moment of silence on Yi Mohan's end.

"Mo Han...where are you? I'm free this afternoon, want to go to the film set together? It's so boring staying indoors all the time."

"Hmm...you've felt better now?"

"...Ah, it's all over now. Where are you? I'll come find you."

"No need," Yi Mohan said. "Something urgent at work has come up, and I need to go back to Jingzhou. Yaoyao, you... take care of yourself, and I'll wait for you to come back."

Su Yao was shocked and her voice trailed off, "You went back to Jingzhou?"

"How could you reply without even telling her?" Su Yao felt a surge of anger, but the system replied.

"It's good that he's gone. Didn't you just want to get in touch with Yes? His presence here would only be a hindrance."

Su Yao bit her lip, thought about it and agreed, then said understandingly, "Okay then, you go ahead and get busy."

"Yaoyao, you..."

"It's okay, I won't blame you. Work is the most important thing, you go ahead and do your work. I'm already very happy that you came all the way from abroad to see me, Mo Han."

"good……"

In the past, when she said that, Yi Mohan would only feel heartache and guilt, and would try his best to make it up to her.

This time, after hanging up the phone, Yi Mohan remained silent for a long time, then made a cold call, "I want all the information on this person. You said you couldn't find it last time, and if you still can't find any useful information this time, you're all fired!"

Yi Mohan never expected that when he returned to Jingzhou and Fang Kesuyao and the others went back, everything had changed drastically.

Ye Si followed Xu Jingming's navigation and drove all the way to the horse farm where they had filmed that afternoon.

We were stopped when we went in, because apparently only a very small number of media outlets were invited to participate in the on-site filming.

As luck would have it, they ran into Yunxiang and her group. Although they didn't say it outright, Yunxiang and the others subtly hinted to the security guards not to let them through, saying that Ye Si was just an ordinary person and not an invited media member.

Even though Xu Jingming showed his work ID and everyone could see that he was a representative of Shenhe Media, Yunxiang still insisted that only Xu Jingming could enter, not Ye Si.

Xu Jingming got out of the car angrily, "What's your name? Acting so arrogantly, does your director know?"

Yunxiang crossed her arms and hugged her chest. "I just want to show some people what happens when you date a boyfriend without power or influence."

"What the hell are you talking about? Do you even know who's in that car?"

"Who is it, the driver?" Yunxiang asked, and the young actors, led by her, burst into laughter.

Xu Jingming trembled with rage, "You guys! Don't you want to work on this film set anymore!"

Yunxiang, still mindful of his status, quickly said, "Mr. Xu, this has nothing to do with you. We're discussing the matter, not the person. Please come in. But this person isn't from the media, and he wasn't invited. The scenes we're filming today are highly confidential, so he absolutely cannot come in."

Xu Jingming had no choice but to call the assistant director with trembling hands. The assistant director arrived shortly after and frowned upon seeing the situation.

"Are you all just bored and have nothing better to do?"

Yunxiang repeated her statement again, speaking with utmost righteousness and conviction, and there was no fault to be found in it.

The assistant director also hesitated, "Well... the director did say today that the set would be cleared. Mr. Xu, you can go in without any problem, but this gentleman... we might need to report it again."

Xu Jingming was about to explode, "I'll report to you my foot! Do you even know who he is?! You dare to block him like this? Do you all want to quit? If you don't want to work, can you at least leave me out? I still have an elderly mother to support!"

The girls sneered and were about to mock her when the assistant director, being quite clever, quickly sensed something was amiss.

"Mr. Xu... Could you tell me who this gentleman is?"

The assistant director glanced into the car and could only catch a glimpse of a cold profile, but it startled him—that aura…

Xu Jingming didn't know why Ye Si had come to the film crew so quietly, without anyone knowing. He actually suspected that Ye Si was traveling incognito, so he didn't dare to reveal his identity.

But at that moment, he felt that his career was about to end there.

Xu Jingming put his arm around the assistant director's shoulder and whispered, "These are the top executives of our company. You better tell your bunch of underlings to stop messing around."

The assistant director's face turned pale upon hearing this, and he immediately waved his hand to the bodyguard, saying, "Let them through! This is an important client of ours!"

Xu Jingming breathed a sigh of relief, patted him on the shoulder, signaling him to take care of himself; the assistant director was sweating profusely.

He led a group of child actors to watch the car leave, while Yunxiang complained, "Assistant Director, how could you let just anyone in!"

The assistant director also thought this woman was driving him crazy with stupidity. He turned to her and pointed, saying, "You caused this whole mess yourself. It has nothing to do with any of us, and it has nothing to do with the crew. You'd better watch yourself!"

Just as Yes drove the car into the inner area, he felt a tremor in the ground, the sound of galloping horses.

He opened the car window and looked out. Under the vast and magnificent sky, he saw several young men and women riding horses, galloping away.

The horses beneath them were quite magnificent, each one robust and beautiful, with flowing manes.

Fang Ke was wearing a few cute braids, dressed in the clothes of the Sheng Kingdom, and had a bright, youthful smile.

She gripped the horse's belly tightly with her legs, her hair fluttering by her ears. Suddenly, she let go of the reins, drew her bow, and aimed sharply at a target in the distance. As she moved at high speed, she released the arrow, which flew like a shooting star.

Hit the bullseye.

The silver saddle shines on the white horse, which gallops like a shooting star.

Fang Ke—no, Yu Yang—had already won the first round after firing her arrow, and was proudly raising her swan-like neck, awaiting her glory. She reined in her horse, sheathed her bow and arrow, her face full of arrogance.

At this moment, she is the most dazzling sight on this ranch.

Xu Jingming couldn't help but take several photos with his phone. "She's so cool! This actress is Fang Ke, the second female lead that Director Wu insisted on waiting for, right? She's definitely got a lot of buzz, but I didn't expect her acting skills to be so amazing..."

Ye Si suddenly opened the sunroof of the car, took out a cigarette case, and asked Xu Jingming first, "Do you smoke?"

Xu Jingming quickly accepted the gift with both hands, thanking the boss repeatedly, but he didn't dare to smoke it in front of the boss and could only leave it for now.

Yes lit a cigarette and watched intently as they rehearsed their scene.

His baby is absolutely radiant.

On their first day here, they actually went to catch three fugitives and even got them to confess.

He has done another great deed for humanity, punishing evil and promoting good.

Even after all this, she still calls herself vicious.

Ye Si couldn't help but chuckle softly, but after the laughter came a wave of tender heartache.

The cold wind from the north tousled their hair, but Fang Ke was unaware that Yes had come back specifically to see her after hearing a story from her.

In this frigid weather of minus ten degrees Celsius, I stayed with her until the sun set.
