Chapter 146 Kidnapping
Si Yunde was stunned.
He picked up the phone that Chee Nian had dropped on the ground, and his face changed drastically after reading it.
Finally, he opened his mouth and begged, "My daughter, the most important thing now is that we are a family. Dad has saved tens of thousands of dollars playing cards over the years. I won't treat my illness anymore. I'll give you all the money."
"What do you know!" Si Nian yelled, "You can't even buy a bag with those tens of thousands of dollars! There's not even a toilet in the countryside. I've stayed in the big city for so many years because of you. Now if I go back, do you guys want me to die?"
Pei Yunde then remembered that his daughter was a delicate young lady.
"What should I do?" Pei Yunde said in a low voice.
These tens of thousands of dollars were the money he had saved for two hundred thousand years, but it was far from enough for his daughter.
At this moment, Si Nian suddenly raised her eyes, her eyes dark and bright: "Dad, Mom, I have a way to regain the trust of the Si family..."
——
Si Ran stayed in the zoo for several days.
Qiu Chi has already made the poster, and Si Ran logged into his own account and announced that tickets for the Wonderful Zoo will officially go on sale to the public on the first day of the Lunar New Year.
As for the online comments, Si Ran didn't even glance at them.
She lived a peaceful life in the zoo, but in fact, both outside and on the Internet had become a mess.
The police lost track of Pei Yunde and Li Yueping and don't know where they are now.
Even Si Nian disappeared.
The Si family wanted to meet several times, but were all stopped by Ruan Qingyue.
Ruan Xiuxiu's eyes were almost blinded by crying.
In order to prevent Si Ran from being disturbed, Professor He and Meng Tao specially applied to the state to hire a dozen veterans to serve as security guards at the zoo.
Si Junhe looked at the security guards in front of him who were almost 1.9 meters tall. Each of them had an extraordinary figure and did not look like an ordinary security guard at all.
After all, when Ruan Qingyue stood between them, he was like a corgi standing in front of a German Shepherd.
These security personnel are not only soldiers, but are also very likely soldiers who are walking on the edge of a knife.
And all this is to protect Si Ran.
Si Junhe was panicking and held Ruan Xiuxiu's arm and said, "Mom, come back another day."
Ruan Xiuxiu's spirit has been close to collapse these days. She has even become immune to the online abuse against her. Her spirit is condemning herself, like a sharp sickle madly harvesting her nerves.
Ruan Xiuxiu's eyes were swollen like walnuts, and she returned to the car exhausted.
In the cafe in the zoo, Si Ran sat on the third floor, watching Si Junhe and Ruan Xiuxiu drive away, then picked up the fragrant latte next to her and took a big sip.
She thought that compared to her own miserable situation in her previous life, the retribution the Si family was receiving now was not enough.
Song Zhi was watching from the side and suddenly said, "Xiao Ran, the garden is about to open. Director Meng said he wants to record a video. The camera crew will be coming tomorrow, so you should get ready."
When Si Ran heard the voice, it took him a long time to come back to his senses.
Then she nodded: "Okay."
After a while, Si Ran found that Song Zhi was still looking at her.
Si Ran: "Sister Zhizhi, why are you looking at me all the time?"
Song Zhi hesitated for a moment. She wanted to ask politely, but her emotional intelligence was as low as a dog's, so she spoke bluntly: "Are you really okay with what happened online?"
Si Ran: "It's okay, sister. I've been in the entertainment industry for a while, and I've seen a lot of ups and downs."
Song Zhi said honestly: "I saw something wrong in your eyes just now. I felt that you were a little sad."
sad?
Si Ran pondered for a moment, then said honestly, "Probably a little bit. After all, when I was a kid, I fantasized about having a normal, happy family. But Si Yunde and Li Yueping would beat and scold me whenever something went wrong. Later, when I finally returned to the Si family, I discovered that they didn't love me that much either."
She is just an ordinary person. Even if she doesn't care about the Si family now, it would be a lie to say that she doesn't hate them because they died so tragically in her previous life.
Song Zhi looked into Si Ran's eyes for a long time, then suddenly said, "Come home to celebrate the New Year."
"Um?"
Si Ran's mouth twitched, and he was thinking about what was going on.
In the last second, you were asking yourself whether you were sad or not, and in the next second, you invited yourself to celebrate the New Year.
Song Zhi: "My mother likes you very much and wants you to go with her for the New Year."
Si Ran didn't answer. To be honest, she was a little moved.
"Forget it." After a long time, Si Ran finally decided to refuse: "You and your uncle and aunt are celebrating the New Year together, why should I go?"
When Song Zhi saw Si Ran refuse, he knew that Si Ran didn't want to trouble others.
It's still early for the Chinese New Year, so if she brings it up every day, Si Ran will definitely not refuse.
The next day, Si Ran got up before dawn.
The zoo is going to be open to the public, and Meng Tao wants to record a promotional video for all employees.
Meng Tao invested a lot of money, and when the film crew came in, they brought a large amount of filming equipment.
The entire zoo now has more than a thousand employees, and Meng Tao asked that all of them be photographed.
Meng Tao is still communicating with the director on the details.
"Yes, yes, yes. Every employee, including Alipay and the security guards outside, and every animal should be included in the video. They are all members of the Wonderful Zoo, and no one can be left out."
Meng Tao then pointed at Si Ran and said, "She needs to be filmed in a focused manner. Xiao Ran is the face of our zoo. We only need a few shots of her, but her shots must be many and long."
The director almost exploded when he heard Meng Tao's increasingly outrageous demands.
What’s the difference between this and the client’s request for colorful black!
"Director Meng, how many animals are there in your park? How long do you want to shoot the video?"
Meng Tao smacked his lips. He felt like the director was going to beat him to death. He was still a little confused about the situation. "There are probably over 5,000 animals right now. The promotional video should take about half an hour."
"You know, there are over 5,000 animals and over 1,000 employees. Forget about shooting a promotional video. Just making a PowerPoint presentation out of the photos would take half an hour."
Meng Tao also knew that his request was excessive. He glanced at Si Ran's smiling eyes, scratched his head and looked at the director: "How about I give you a little more money?"
The director was speechless: "This is not a question of money, let's talk about whether it is reasonable or not?"
Seeing that the director was about to be driven crazy by Meng Tao, Si Ran finally stood up and said, "Director Meng, please stop bullying the director. We definitely can't film all the animals in the zoo at once. Let's just film the person in charge of each park and the animals that interact with us."
"But other animals..." Meng Tao frowned. He wanted to take pictures of all the animals because he felt that precious and ordinary animals were equal.
Si Ran naturally understood what Meng Tao meant. She explained, "The purpose of a promotional video is to whet fans' appetites. We definitely need to film profitable scenes so that tourists will spend money. As for other animals, we're not unwilling to film them. I don't manage the Wonderful Zoo account very often, so I plan to hand it over to the right person after the New Year. I'm thinking of releasing the rest of the animals separately. How about that?"
Meng Tao didn't hesitate this time.
Si Ran's idea was very good, and he nodded: "Okay!"
Seeing this, Si Ran immediately communicated with the director.
The director heaved a sigh of relief after hearing this: "That's good, there's no problem with filming this way."
However, a doubt flashed through his mind. Si Ran was only wearing ordinary animal keeper's clothes, but he could actually make decisions based on the words of the zoo director.
It’s worthy of being called a wonderful zoo!
Si Ran often faces the camera, so the filming went very smoothly.
But the rest of the employees didn't fare so well.
Especially Meng Tao.
He held Pippi in his arms with a red face and introduced Pippi's origin very stiffly. The filming was repeated over and over again, which made Pippi very annoyed.
"I'm not filming anymore, Director Meng. You really don't have any expressiveness at all. You're really tiring me out."
After Pippi finished speaking, he ran off to eat sugarcane.
Only Meng Tao was left, who was about to cry.
There was no other way, the director could only ask Meng Tao to calm the animals down and shoot Si Ran's video first.
Si Ran appeared in many scenes, and it was already dawn when the filming was finished.
She studied in the system until four in the morning yesterday and was severely sleep deprived.
After finishing the filming, Si Ran prepared to go back to the staff dormitory to rest.
The staff dormitory building was completely quiet. Everyone was still participating in the filming. Even the security captain of Alipay had gone there. Si Ran was the only one in the entire building.
Snap——
Si Ran took the key and opened the door.
The door was pushed open with a creak, and then he saw Si Yunde standing at the door of his room, smiling at him sinisterly.
The next second, Si Yunde picked up a baseball bat and smashed it on Si Ran's head with a bang.
