Chapter 034
Zhou Wutong was confused when he received the call from the police. But when he heard the name Lu Xingzhou, he suddenly thought, oh, that's it, then it's okay.
Well, as long as Lu Xingzhou is around, no matter how outrageous things are, they are normal.
A tiger was lured down the mountain and was injured. Lu Xingzhou rescued the tiger and took it away for treatment. According to the tiger, he came down the mountain only after he smelled a very fragrant smell.
Zhou Wutong was calm after hearing this, but how could he be calm at all!!
He only knew that Lu Xingzhou was good with cats and dogs, but he didn't expect that this guy could also deal with wild animals?
When the numb Zhou Wutong and his team arrived, Lu Xingzhou and Da Lao Hu had already disappeared. Director Zhou was squatting where Da Lao Hu was injured, covering his head with his hands and looking like he was about to die.
When he saw Zhou Wutong coming, he stood up as if he had seen a savior and told him what happened.
He has indeed paused filming now, but every day of pause means burning a day's worth of money!!
As for Lu Xingzhou, he and his second brother had just returned home. The housekeeper and the security guards placed the big tiger in the backyard. A protective net had been erected in the backyard. It was obvious that it was a place reserved for the big tiger.
Lu Xingzhou silently gave the butler a thumbs up. The butler puffed out his chest slightly and looked calm. He was prepared when he received the call from the young master. After all, since the young master got to know his family, anything that happened at home was not surprising.
Lu Xiao walked out of the house in his pajamas with a smug look on his face. When he saw a wild fat tiger appear in their yard, he was dumbfounded.
He just reconciled with his wife and finally got into bed with her, so shouldn't he perform well?
Look, his daughter was still sleeping. He heard the housekeeper's report and came down to take a look.
Lu Xiao looked at the big fat tiger. He turned to look at the housekeeper and asked questioningly, "Is this the little animal that the young master brought back?"
He looked the big fat tiger up and down, and thought...even in the tiger world, this one can't be called small, okay?
The reason why Pangpang is called Pangpang is because he is particularly fat. He is much fatter than other tigers.
Lu Xiao opened his mouth and said, "How is this...ton tiger small?"
The housekeeper calmly turned his gaze towards his young master Zhou Zhou. Lu Xingzhou looked at his father with disapproval and said, "Fatty is still young and can't stand hearing this."
Pangpang whimpered in agreement.
Lu Xiao was silent for a moment. He looked at the fat tiger and said, "So, Zhou Zhou, what are you going to do with this... little tiger?"
Lu Xingzhou said, "I'll check him out later. A broken bone takes a hundred days to heal, so let him take care of it for now."
He looked at the butler and asked, "Uncle Butler, have all the formalities been completed?"
The housekeeper nodded calmly and said, "Everything is ready. This cute little animal can be kept in the Lu family for the time being."
After saying that, he thought of something else. He looked at Lu Xingzhou and asked, "Young Master, what about Little Fatty's food..."
Lu Xingzhou recalled his experience as a zookeeper and said, "I'll make a list for you later. Just feed Pangpang according to the list."
Pangpang looked at Lu Xingzhou eagerly. He understood that Lu Xingzhou was talking about his future meals.
Lu Xiao stroked his chin and looked at the orange-yellow gas tank. It was a tiger. He remembered that Lao Bai had a wolf and showed it off in front of him every day. Now that he had a tiger at home, he had to show it off to his heart's content.
Lu Xingzhou turned around and looked at his father in confusion and asked, "Dad, why are you still home at this time? My eldest brother has already gone to work."
Dad Lu was silent for a moment and sighed softly, "I'm old now. I want to take a rest but my son keeps urging me to go to work. My life is so hard..."
Lu Xingzhou's face was dark. When had he ever urged his father to go to work? He just wanted to ask.
Lu Xiao looked at his son's speechless expression and smiled, saying, "Your father is on vacation. By the way, Zhou Zhou, your brothers will be back this weekend. How about I hold a party and announce your identity?"
Lu Xingzhou didn't have any objections. He nodded and said, "I'm fine with it. But does Third Brother have the time?"
Lu Xiao curled his lips and said, "It's okay as long as he doesn't have time for the gift."
He had refused when the third brother wanted to join the army, but he was no match for that stubborn guy.
[Speaking of which, it seems that the incident with the third brother happened in the second year after the Lu family was defeated. He was once a military leader, but was eventually plotted against by a scoundrel. The Lu family was in turmoil at the time, and the third brother, anxious and anxious, accidentally fell into the trap and had both of his legs broken...]
Lu Xingzhou lowered his eyes and sighed.
[In order of time, it was Chen Tingbai first, then the eldest brother. The Lu family ran into trouble on the eldest brother's side, and then the second brother started to think of a solution. Gu Chen lent a hand at this time, and then they hid it from the third brother. Later, that person used this to plot against the third brother.]
Lu Xiao's expression, which had been relatively calm just now, turned a little gloomy. When Lu Xingzhou looked over, he smiled again and said, "Okay, don't think too much about it. It doesn't matter if your three brothers can't come back. We will meet them sooner or later anyway. The most important thing is to announce our Zhou Zhou's identity first."
Lu Xingzhou hummed, and the veterinarian on duty came out. He looked at Lu Xingzhou and said, "Young Master, the equipment inside is ready for disinfection."
Lu Xingzhou nodded, changed his clothes, and said, "I'll go in first."
Lu Yun'er and Lu Xiao nodded and watched Lu Xingzhou enter the animal center. When Lu Xingzhou's figure completely disappeared, the father and son looked at each other.
Lu Xiao said, "I'll go back to the company tomorrow and conduct a thorough investigation from top to bottom. Keep an eye on your brother and don't let him get hurt."
Lu Yuner hummed, and then he said, "I'm planning to take on a variety show and bring Zhou Zhou along."
Lu Xiao raised his eyebrows and said, "Have you told Zhou Zhou?"
Lu Yuner shook his head and said, "Let's wait until Zhou Zhou's identity is revealed. I'll take Zhou Zhou to film a variety show then, and you and Big Brother can go ahead and investigate thoroughly."
Lu Xiao nodded. They were not paper people, they were real people with flesh and blood. There was no reason for them to accept their fate just because they knew it.
Lu Xingzhou watched from the side as the veterinarian and his assistant began the operation. Although anesthesia was used, it was not much, so Lu Xingzhou followed in just in case.
Fortunately, the operation went smoothly and Pangpang slept until the end.
When they came out, Fatty was still sleeping. The cats outside saw that the big cat was gone and gathered around. The little cow jumped onto Lu Xingzhou's shoulder and looked curiously at the steel fence outside, meowing, "Zhou Zhou, what happened to the big cat just now?"
Lu Xingzhou rubbed the cow's head and said, "That's the tiger. He's injured, so he came here to recuperate."
The little cow nodded and meowed, "Zhou Zhou~ Go to the place you asked me to ask, meow, there is an ancient tomb underneath there, meow~"
Lu Xingzhou clicked his tongue. He knew that the presence of the ancient tomb meant that it could not be developed for the time being, so he could only focus on the development of the ancient tomb.
The excavation of an ancient tomb takes a long time. Not to mention the funerary objects and antiques inside, even the records and murals inside the tomb need to be protected.
Although there are subsidies, it is still a drop in the bucket...
He patted the little cow's head and said, "Thank you, little cow. I'll give you a snack tonight."
The little cow meowed happily, not threatening the mice to help him get the news.
When Lu Xingzhou came out, Lu Yuner was sitting on the cushion waiting for him. Seeing him come out, Lu Yuner waved at him and said, "Zhou Zhou~"
Lu Xingzhou sat over and looked at his second brother and said, "What's wrong?"
Lu Yuner said with a smile, "There's a variety show coming up in the second half of the month, and I'm wondering whether to take it or not."
Lu Xingzhou looked at his brother curiously and asked, "What variety show?"
Lu Yuner said: "Between family members~"
Lu Xingzhou leaned back slightly. He knew about this variety show.
This variety show, the director of this variety show is incredibly unlucky. They hired eight groups of guests, and four of them had issues. The show filmed for three years, and after three years, there's nothing left...
Lu Yun'er sighed inwardly, this director... is so unlucky.
So, he looked at Lu Xingzhou and asked, "So, are you going?"
Lu Xingzhou thought for a moment and said, "Let's go. I remember that his first episode was all about filming daily life, right?"
Lu Yuner nodded. He agreed because he was just following their daily life at the beginning. They would go directly to the manor in the suburbs to record the video and subtly publicize their family background.
He had to insure himself first. What if that crazy Gu Chen came and tried to take advantage of him? If he didn't pay attention and fell into his trap, his innocence would be gone!
One advantage of publicizing your family background is that before you make a move on him, you'll have to consider whether you have the ability to do so.
It's not impossible to announce it directly, but he hasn't mentioned his family matters for so many years. It's a bit abrupt to suddenly say that his surname is Lu, and Lu is from the Lu Group. It's not like he doesn't plan to stay in the entertainment industry.
Therefore, the best way to handle it is to take on a family variety show, film it at home, and release the news subtly.
Lu Xingzhou touched his chin. Actually, the concept of this variety show is not bad. It’s just that the director is really unlucky and was a bit blind in choosing the guests.
And this is a recording...
Lu Xingzhou looked at Lu Yuner and suddenly asked, "Second brother, do you have the contact information of this director?"
Lu Yuner came back to his senses and said, "Is there anything you want to talk to the director about at Dan's place?"
Lu Xingzhou smiled slightly and said, "I plan to invest in this program..."
Lu Yun'er raised an eyebrow, and Lu Xingzhou continued, "Ask him to try a different approach, and do a live broadcast."
Live broadcast... Nowadays, there are really no live broadcast programs. The main reason is that live broadcast can easily ruin the character. Everyone in the entertainment industry has a character. If a live broadcast is not done well, wouldn’t it be the end of it?
However, the audience will definitely like this idea. Live broadcast and recorded broadcast are different. Recorded broadcast can be edited, but live broadcast cannot. This way, they can get a more specific feeling of what the people they follow are like.
Lu Xingzhou was preparing to warm up his Chu beauty on this...
He is not planning to be a director in the first step, so he is not afraid of following the live broadcast. At that time, he just needs to do his own thing and occasionally let the people in the live broadcast room feel the atmosphere.
He also wanted to try whether the popularity value was calculated in terms of money or some other way.
After sharing my idea with Lu Yuner, Lu Yuner expressed her support with both hands. The previous two seasons were indeed too bland. This is the third season...
Hiss... Lu Yun'er was stunned. According to what Zhou Zhou said, after three years of recording, there was nothing after returning. Does that mean this season is the last one?
I don't know whether to say this director is lucky or unlucky. Fortunately, Zhou Zhou is ready to invest. You know, Zhou Zhou has his mother's black card...
Unfortunately, the first two seasons were a waste of time.
The more Lu Xingzhou thought about it, the more feasible it seemed. He even started thinking of other variety show routines. Actually... besides being a screenwriter for movies and TV series, he could also be a variety show screenwriter, right?
After making up his mind, Lu Xingzhou looked at the German Shepherd next to him. The German Shepherd ran back to the room obediently and walked over with the tablet in its mouth.
Lu Yun'er was jealous. This German Shepherd was rescued by the little cow and Lu Xingzhou. The dog was infected with parvovirus and was abandoned by his owner. The dog was wandering outside and waiting to die. After the little cow found out, he took Lu Xingzhou to rescue the dog.
Fortunately, Lu Xingzhou had enough medicine reserves and was able to rescue the dog. After being rescued, the dog only listened to Lu Xingzhou and the little cow.
It is highly obedient, smart, clever and obedient, which makes Lu Yuner want to raise one.
Lu Xingzhou patted the German Shepherd's head, and the German Shepherd rubbed Lu Xingzhou's hand obediently. Lu Xingzhou picked up the tablet and started to work.
When he finished, Lu Yun'er looked over and saw what was happening. He looked at Lu Xingzhou and said, "Is this a family variety show or a wilderness survival show?"
Lu Xingzhou simply summarized what he had seen before. He looked at the tablet and nodded with satisfaction. Hearing Lu Yuner's words, he said speechlessly: "What do you mean by wilderness survival? I just asked you to stay in the village for a few days."
Lu Yuner waved his hands repeatedly and said, "What do you mean by 'you guys'? I'm not here."
Lu Xingzhou said with a smile: "This is the later revision. This time we should still follow the previous one."
Lu Yuner nodded. He brought Lu Xingzhou to enjoy himself, not to suffer.
When Fat Tiger woke up, it was already dark. Lu Xingzhou also received a call from Zhou Wutong. After a day of investigation, Zhou Wutong returned home. After thinking about it, he decided to call Lu Xingzhou to ask about this matter.
Lu Xingzhou picked up the phone and told Zhou Wutong everything he knew. Zhou Wutong turned on the speakerphone and placed it on the coffee table, recording and asking questions. Zhou Xinglu, who was sitting next to him, looked at Zhou Wutong's phone, not knowing what he was thinking.
The boy's voice was clear and pleasant, and it made Zhou Xinglu's ears feel a little numb.
The sound is quite nice, that’s what Zhou Xinglu thought.
After listening to the whole thing, Zhou Xinglu looked at his stupid nephew and asked, "Is it the one from last time?"
Zhou Wutong nodded and said, "The last time we had the hospital incident, it was Xiaolu who called the police and found the evidence. Chen Tingbai should be on the road soon, and he also found a lot of things by following the clues..."
Zhou Xinglu picked up the purple clay teapot and poured the tea into the cup. He lifted the cup, brought it to his lips, took a sip of the tea with his thin lips and said, "Don't forget to thank them."
Zhou Wutong nodded quickly and said, "I'll go after everything is settled here."
Zhou Xinglu hummed and said, "I'll accompany you then."
Lu Xingzhou had no idea that someone with a similar name had become interested in him, and he was using his persona as a metaphysical genius to fool his elder brother.
He looked at his elder brother and said, "I've been calculating recently and the company's project may have problems..."
[Little Cow did say there's an ancient tomb deep down there. Leng's ancestors started out as tomb robbers. They discovered it when they went to see it a while ago. They've set a trap for Big Brother, waiting for him to dive in. Logically, it shouldn't be possible to dig out at that depth. Someone must be colluding with Leng.]
Lu Qiyi narrowed his eyes. If it was anything else, it would be fine, but the ancient tomb...that would be difficult to deal with.
Lu Xingzhou said, "I calculated that our company is currently in conflict with the north. Does the company have a project in the north?"
Lu Qiyi nodded and said, "Yes, the company does have a project in the north of the city... It's ready for development, and our family is preparing to bid for it."
Lu Xingzhou quickly said, "You can't participate in this project. If you do, you will have to pay compensation."
[The losses were substantial, hundreds of millions invested. The tomb itself was quite large, and it would take at least eight to ten years to complete.]
Lu Qiyi nodded. He looked at Lu Xingzhou and said, "Okay, I'll listen to Zhou Zhou. We won't participate in this development project."
Lu Xingzhou nodded immediately and said, "In fact, you can look at the west of the city. The north is in conflict, and the west is prosperous."
There's a hot spring at the foot of the mountain west of the city! It's a natural medicinal spring, great for your health. Developing it is a surefire way to make money!
Lu Qiyi thought for a moment. The land west of the city was close to the mountains and forests. If they were to be developed, they would have to take over the mountains and forests as well. While the scenery was beautiful, it wouldn't be cost-effective to develop it into real estate. However, having a hot spring was a different story, especially according to Xiao Zhou, a medicinal spring...
If we can build a sanatorium community and bring the medicinal spring into the community, this project will be very profitable.
Lu Qiyi said, "Okay, then I'll immediately ask someone to find out about the plans in the west of the city. Zhou Zhou is so capable, big brother should listen to Zhou Zhou."
Lu Xingzhou's eyes curved with laughter. Lu Qiyi stood up, ruffled his hair and said, "Use the money you earn to buy Zhou Zhou something delicious."
Lu Xingzhou glanced at his elder brother and said, "I'm not a child anymore."
Lu Qiyi raised his eyebrows slightly and said, "You will always be a child in front of Big Brother."
After Lu Xingzhou told the story, he felt relieved. The aroma of food wafted up from downstairs. Lu Xingzhou looked downstairs and saw that Song Qing was cooking again today.
Of course, Song Qing was only responsible for cooking, and Lu Xiao was helping him.
Seeing Lu Xingzhou and Lu Qiyi coming down, Lu Xiao brought the dishes over and said, "You two still remember to come down, come and eat."
Lu Xingzhou looked down at his domineering father wearing an apron and carrying dishes, while his second brother was standing there serving rice. His heart felt both sad and warm.
In the past, the cooking was done by the cook, and it was only because of me that my mother started cooking.
Lu Xingzhou looked down and said with a smile, "The food Mom cooked smells so good. I've been hungry for a long time."
Song Qing was wiping her hands and smiled happily when she heard this. She said, "I haven't cooked for a long time. I've only done it these past few days, so I'm already rusty. As long as Zhou Zhou likes it, that's fine."
Lu Qiyi's smile also deepened a lot. After Zhou Zhou came back, the house became lively and felt like home...
very nice.
After dinner, Lu Xingzhou ran towards the backyard. Fat Tiger had already woken up. When Lu Xingzhou went over, he was eating meat with big mouthfuls.
Seeing Lu Xingzhou coming, he hurried over. After eating this meal, he was even more certain that this was his future financial sponsor. He, Fat Tiger, was a tiger of the Lu family in life and a ghost tiger of the Lu family in death. He would never leave!
This is the life that Fat Tiger should live. Someone feeds him and takes care of him, and all he has to do is lie down.
The main character is too lazy to move, especially since his big sponsor Zhou Zhou is so attractive and so popular with him, he absolutely doesn't want to leave.
After checking Fat Tiger's condition, he patted Fat Tiger's head and said, "Take care of him well, don't move your paws. You can go back after he recovers."
When Fat Tiger heard this, he got anxious. He howled, "I won't go back. I'm your tiger now. You can't just ignore me."
Lu Xingzhou looked at Fat Tiger with dead eyes, wondering where on earth did this big fat tiger learn all this messed up stuff from.
He patted Fat Tiger's flesh and said, "We'll talk about this later. Just be good. I have something to do in the next two days. I'll come to see you when I'm done."
When Fat Tiger heard this, he nodded his head quickly to show that he understood as long as they didn't chase him away. Lu Xingzhou returned to the room.
He added Director Zhou's contact information today and was originally planning to ask Director Zhou if he had any directors to recommend, but then the Fat Tiger incident came up. After thinking it over, he sent Director Zhou a message: "Uncle Zhou, how's the investigation going?"
This question hit Director Zhou's nerves, and he immediately sent out a lot of information. The main point was that a camera had captured the idiot who had interviewed the third male lead before, and these things were most likely placed by him. The results will be out tomorrow.
Once that's done, you can start shooting again.
What else could Lu Xingzhou say? Of course he followed Director Zhou and cursed the man in indignation. With the popularity of Big Eyes, the trending searches also started to gain momentum little by little.
The first thing that came to the hot search was "The Tiger Comes Down the Mountain". The secretly taken photo above was a photo of the housekeeper standing beside Lu Yun'er and Lu Xingzhou, protecting them as they got into the car, while Fat Tiger was lying in an iron cage hanging under a helicopter.
The photo of Fat Tiger going down the mountain was ignored, and a lot of people began to speculate about Lu Xingzhou's identity and Lu Yuner's family affairs.
Lin Hua's face darkened when he saw the trending search. He did nothing wrong. He was just seeking revenge, revenge on Director Zhou and Lu Yun'er. Who told them to meddle in other people's business?
As a result, they are all fine now, and Lu Yuner's popularity seems to have increased.
He smashed a cup in anger. Just wait, he will hit you again.
Gu Chen's heart began to pound upon seeing the trending search. He had always thought Lu Yun'er came from a humble background and had considered using his power to pressure him. But now, he was just glad he hadn't...
Pulling his hand out from under Lin Qinyi, Gu Chen lit a cigarette, his eyes full of eagerness. If he was just in love with her before, now, Gu Chen was determined to win her.
