On a flight from Country M to China, there was an extremely eye-catching private jet preparing to take off.
Compared with most other flights that choose beautiful women with blonde hair and golden eyes as flight attendants, the owner of this private jet seems to prefer Asians with black hair and black eyes. When such a group of black-haired, black-eyed and beautiful flight attendants walk through the crowd, they are even more eye-catching.
But these are not the main points. The main point is... neither the good-looking Asian flight attendants nor the latest expensive private jets are as eye-catching as the two letters printed on the fuselage. Those two letters represent none other than the GD Group, one of the world's seven top conglomerates headquartered in Country M.
Coincidentally, the GD Group's president was changing hands this year, and it was said that the previous president was directly PKed out by an extremely young blond guy in his early twenties, who increased the annual revenue of the entire GD Group by 3% in just three months!
Such a record shocked the entire financial community of Country M, and people from all walks of life couldn't help but talk about this little-known blond boy.
Some say that his talent is comparable to that of the genius founder of the GD Group, while others say that his inherent potential may even surpass those successful presidents who saved the GD Group and pushed it to the top.
But no matter which statement it is, without exception, it makes the blond boy Will a supernova in the financial world of Country M. Almost all the headlines are discussing this person. He was once very popular, and the popularity has not subsided much to this day.
Under such circumstances, how could a private jet representing the GD Foundation not attract attention and draw attention when it appeared on the tarmac?
Moreover, the young and handsome blond man who is now walking towards the private plane is none other than Will, the new president of the GD Group!
In just a moment, countless voices could be heard around shouting "Will" excitedly. The scene was comparable to an international superstar appearing at the airport. Even Zhang Wenwen, who was walking next to Will, fell into the public's sight.
"Oh my god, Will, that's actually Will. I've seen his real-life photos on Facebook and thought he was handsome, but I didn't expect him to be even more handsome in person than in the photos!! Ahhh, I'm obsessed with him!!"
"Oh, me too. He's so handsome, so handsome that my legs are almost weak, but he seems to already have a woman. He's with an Asian girl, and Will is so careful to protect her. She's so happy. I'm so envious. If I were that Asian girl, I'd almost die of happiness..."
Listening to the envious words around her and feeling the increasing number of gazes from all around, Zhang Wenwen's vanity suddenly swelled to an extreme level, and she could not hide the arrogance and complacency in her eyes.
Of course, she still had to suppress all of this temporarily when she was outside. With a red face, she followed Will nervously and cautiously, holding Will's clothes tightly, looking very nervous, shy and uncomfortable.
Sure enough, not long after, she saw Will looking back at her, touching her head with a smile, telling her not to be nervous, and half-hugging her shoulders to take her onto the plane.
Will's action as if he was particularly infatuated with her immediately gave Zhang Wenwen a boost of confidence. No, or rather, she thought Will was completely infatuated with her. Now he brought her with him almost every day, even when he went in and out of the GD Foundation. He was also extremely nice to her and took care of her in every possible way.
The only drawback is that the progress of physical contact seems to be too slow. So far, Will has only hugged her at most, not to mention touching her, not even a kiss. Will is often heard calling her his white moonlight's nickname: baby.
This made Zhang Wenwen a little anxious. She wanted to replace the white moonlight as quickly as possible and make Will completely infatuated with her. Now she was just one step away from success.
But it doesn't matter. As long as she cooperates again with the woman named Lin Zhuer who told her the method, she will be able to obtain more information about Will. It is only a matter of time before she can replace the Bai Yueguang who has long ceased to exist!
Thinking of this, Zhang Wenwen's mind was already turning. She snuggled up to Will like a spoiled child and whispered:
"Will, when we get to China, can you come with me to meet my sister Zhu'er and Uncle Lin? I'd like to introduce you to them. Uncle Lin is a very capable person. He knows the Chinese market very well and has his own large family business. If you, Will, cooperate with Uncle Lin and the others, you will definitely get twice the result with half the effort~"
Will was certainly not stupid. He naturally understood what Zhang Wenwen meant, but he had never heard of the Lin Group. He guessed it was a small company.
However, Will basically agreed to all the requests made to the humans he raised, and the one he raised this time was a more advanced creature than before, so Will naturally agreed. This was just a small matter that he agreed to casually and would not cause any impact on him.
As for the purpose of Will flying to China, it goes without saying that it was naturally to show off the guy he raised in front of Black Dragon, and to piss off Black Dragon at the same time. It would be even better if they could have a fight.
Especially since, just a quarter of an hour ago, he saw that Black Dragon guy had posted a Moments post, showing off some photos of his cubs! Humph! He even said he was raising high-end fakes, but didn't that bastard Black Dragon raise his own? He was still talking about him! He was still talking about him!
In fact, the golden dragon's mind has always been very clear. He knows clearly that these humans he has found, no matter how similar they are to his dragon cubs, are not real. They are not his dragon cubs. His dragon cubs were swallowed up by the lava of Dragon Island thousands of years ago, but he...isn't he lonely?
Every time he woke up from a deep sleep, he could no longer find the chubby and soft little dragon cub that he could dress up beautifully and hold in his arms with satisfaction.
The sudden surge of despair and longing made him miserable. Only by keeping a human who was somewhat similar to the dragon cub by his side would he feel a little better, as if... pretending that his dragon cub was still by his side.
Even though he knew it wasn't true, any relief was any relief, wasn't it?
Didn't even the black dragon, who had been so disgusted by his fakery, finally give in like him? But... was the human the black dragon had found really that much like the dragon cub? How could he be so happy? Could he be faking it?
Will couldn't help but think a little absentmindedly, and Zhang Wenwen, who had received Will's verbal consent, immediately contacted Lin Lin'er and told her that the new president of GD Group was willing to meet with their Lin Group. She also asked Lin Zhu'er to make preparations for the meeting with Will, including:
"Lin Zhu'er, you promised me before that you could help me completely replace the white moonlight in Will's heart. I hope you will keep your promise. Just as I can let Will meet you, I can also prevent you from having any contact with each other!"
Lin Zhu'er, who was about to return to the filming site when she felt her phone vibrate, saw this sentence and couldn't help but sneer at Zhang Wenwen on the other side of the phone:
That Zhang Wenwen, did she think she was some big shot? How dare she threaten her? She wondered who had gotten her to this position in the first place.
However, when she mentioned before that there was a way to completely replace Bai Yueguang, she was just saying it casually to show off. You have to know that Bai Yueguang only appears in less than a hundred words in the text, so how could she know how to completely replace her? She has basically told you all the information she knows.
But Lin Zhu'er didn't feel guilty at all. After all, she knew the entire plot of the book's world, so she could just make up something when the time came. She helped Zhang Wenwen, so it was only right that Zhang Wenwen helped her in return. What right did she have to negotiate with her?
However, now the president of the GD Group has agreed to meet with Lin. When the time comes, she can just mention it to Lin's father and say a few good words. I guess she will be able to get some permissions and use some of Lin's company's fund exchange system props first, right?
As for whether the transferred funds could make up for the shortfall, Lin Zhuer was not worried at all. She was going to become a 'darling of heaven'. Later, under the influence of the 'darling of heaven', the Lin Group would develop rapidly and expand into an enterprise three times larger than its current size. Now it was just a small amount of money that was being transferred. What did it count for?
Thinking of this, Lin Zhuer began to feel relieved again. When she entered the shooting site, she gave Lin Long a proud and demonstrative look from an angle where no one else could see.
However, she never expected that at this moment, Zhang Yi was walking over to say something to Lin Long because Lin Long had given her face before, and her eyes suddenly met Lin Zhuer's demonstrative eyes, which was obviously different from the eyes of Lin Zhuer's previous "good sister, little white flower" character, and Zhang Yi's expression was stunned.
Lin Zhuer, whose mistake was suddenly discovered, became panicked. She turned her head abruptly and suddenly started yelling that her eyes hurt and sand had gotten into her eyes.
The crew immediately surrounded her, handing her eye drops, wet towels and other things, blocking Zhang Yi's view as she wanted to see more clearly. After a while, Lin Zhu'er returned to her familiar appearance.
Was that...was she seeing things? A look like that...
But if she wasn't mistaken and wasn't feeling guilty, why was Lin Zhu'er so panicked and nervous, as if she was hiding something?
At this moment, Zhang Yi's expression became a little strange, and she suddenly felt that she had overlooked something.
Of course, as a veteran actress who has been elected Best Actress for several consecutive terms, it is not difficult for her to pretend that "it turned out that I was wrong". The protagonists still get along like a "harmonious and loving" family.
But Lin Long, who saw the whole scene clearly and took it all in, was even happier. She felt that this time of "stepping on ants" would be very interesting. The more she thought about it, the more excited she became. She even couldn't help "humming" a little tune while putting on makeup.
The female makeup artist standing next to Lin Long and helping her with her makeup was no longer surprised by this. As long as Lin Long didn't let out that slightly scary aura from before, it would be fine. In fact, because Lin Long was still thinking about her and giving her face just now, the female makeup artist now had a good impression of Lin Long. Not only was she not scared anymore, she couldn't help but ask out of curiosity:
"Ms. Lin, did something good happen? Why do I feel like you seem very excited?"
"That's a good thing. We're going to have a big show soon. For example, what will it be like if the 'harmonious and friendly' protagonists suddenly collapse and start arguing?"
The 'harmonious and friendly' protagonists on the other side? Upon hearing this, the female makeup artist subconsciously turned her head to the side and saw the protagonists on Lin Zhuer's side loving each other. She shook her head in disbelief.
"That's unlikely. From what I know, many of them have close personal relationships, like Lin Zhu'er and Yang Yiyi. They're close friends."
"Oh, is that so? Then, how about making a bet with me? If I win, how about you become my personal makeup artist? I'm very satisfied with the makeup you put on me."
The female makeup artist was stunned when she heard this. She had been doing makeup for different artists for many years, but no one had ever invited her to be his exclusive makeup artist. Even the artists who helped with makeup were the least famous in the group, or the ones that other makeup artists were most reluctant to go. It was because of this that she was assigned to do makeup for Lin Long, who was being blackmailed by the entire Internet.
But it was obvious that following the internet-wide blackmail of Lin Long and becoming her exclusive makeup artist was not a good option at all. Although the term 'exclusive makeup artist' made her heart flutter for a moment, it didn't take long for the female makeup artist to shake her head and refuse. "I'm sorry, I have a contract with Director Wu's crew. I can't be your exclusive makeup artist..."
"It's okay. I'll keep this invitation for you. I'm always generous to the people I like. If you change your mind, you can come back to me."
As Lin Long said this, he winked at the female makeup artist, making his already good-looking face even more handsome.
They were obviously all women, but just looking at them, the female makeup artist felt her heart skip a beat and her face flushed. However, she felt more relaxed and couldn't help but continued with a smile:
"What if you lose? What happens if you lose the bet?"
"Lost the bet?" Hearing this, Lin Long smiled brightly, so brightly that it made people's heart beat faster. "No, there is no such option. I will not lose."
Such a scene was naturally broadcast clearly and synchronously in the live broadcast room through the on-site camera.
But unlike the liveliness and booing when the program was first broadcast, at this moment, the atmosphere in the live broadcast room became extremely weird. No, or rather, the scene became a little weird after Lin Long and Lin Jiashu, the third son of the Lin family, had an argument on the spot.
They all heard Lin Jiashu's words of scolding Lin Long, as well as Lin Long's call of "Third Brother" a total of one hundred and eight times. Naturally, the live broadcast room was bombarded with a new round of barrage. No one could predict what the barrage would contain. Some people even thought that Lin Long was shameless. Even her own third brother had scolded her like this, but she didn't have the tact to apologize and get out of the situation. Instead, she made the relationship so stiff and acted like a sympathizer, as if she had missed her family so much.
"But... is it really like that? When I was little, my parents were often away from home. Although I had a nanny to take care of me, I used to do things like this too. I counted the hours and waited for my parents to come back. I told myself to call them at least once in the morning and once in the evening, and I wrote it down in a little notebook... I don't think Lin Long is lying in this regard..."
Of course, there were no more than three comments like this, and they were quickly covered and drowned out by other comments, and soon disappeared completely.
But this is not the point. The point is that after Lin Long took the packing bag and left, they thought that the picture in the live broadcast room was finally cleaned up. Without the disgusting Lin Long causing trouble, it would be so nice to see Lin Zhuer and the main characters of the crew interacting harmoniously and happily.
However, just a few minutes later, the audience waiting in front of the live broadcast room felt something was not right.
Well, Yang Yiyi, Zhang Yi, Lin Zhuer, Zhang Tianyi and others, they were still good-looking, interactive, and talked about interesting topics. Not long after Lin Long left, Director Wu even took the initiative to come forward and make peace, easing the atmosphere in the dressing room. Everything seemed to be going well.
But for some reason, the audience felt more and more bored as they watched. Compared to the scenes with Lin Long, the current scenes were too harmonious and friendly, and even the taste became dull. So when Lin Long appeared in the camera again, some people couldn't help but excitedly send barrages, saying: "She's here, she's here, she's finally back!"
And it wasn't just one comment, but dozens of comments, proving that at least dozens of people subconsciously commented on it immediately. After it was finished, the scene became very quiet. After an unknown amount of time, someone finally couldn't help but speak up:
"Well, aren't we on the side of 'justice'? Aren't we here to criticize Lin Long? Aren't we supposed to hate Lin Long and wish she wasn't around anymore? Lin Long is back, so what? Why are you all so excited? You act like you're Lin Long's fans."
"I'm really not a fan of Lin Long. I'm even a new fan of Lin Zhu'er, but I don't know why my claws moved subconsciously just now..."
"To be honest, I also..."
"Ahem, I also..."
The scene fell into a strange silence again, leaving only six dots representing the extremely complicated emotions in their hearts. They didn't know why, but after Lin Long came back, their eyes unconsciously wanted to follow the camera on Lin Long's side.
Obviously, the shots of other people were all very good, and there were their idols, Zhang Yi, and Teacher Zhang, but their eyes were out of control and they just kept looking at Lin Long.
They even saw scenes like the bet between Lin Long and the female makeup artist and the invitation for an exclusive makeup artist. What was even more difficult to say was that when they saw Lin Long's handsome smile, their hearts began to beat uncontrollably. At that moment, they felt as if they were bewitched by Lin Long.
If someone who doesn't know the reason accidentally enters this live broadcast room at this time, they will find a very strange phenomenon. The barrage on the screen of the live broadcast room is empty, with only two or three barrages floating around. It looks very much like those deserted live broadcast rooms, and it doesn't look like a popular live broadcast room at all. However, its number of viewers not only did not drop, but continued to rise. Especially when the camera turned to Lin Long, the number of viewers increased by almost twice as much.
It's a pity that no one paid attention to this phenomenon. Under normal circumstances, there should be staff from the program team monitoring the barrage in the live broadcast room, and make temporary adjustments if the situation is not right.
But now, because Lao Zhan "ran an errand for his boss and delivered a lunch box", they clearly realized that Lin Long was probably not an ordinary person. Behind her, there might be their ultimate boss.
Their ultimate boss would be following the production team later, just to see if some foolish person would bully Lin Long. Wouldn't that mean they were going to be killed? In this situation, Lin Long was clearly the one being isolated by the other guests. How could he be okay?
"Director, how about we change the free grouping arrangement later? Change it to semi-free grouping, with two people forming a team of captain and vice-captain. The others can still choose voluntarily. There are eleven guests in total, so we can divide them into three groups, at least three people in each group, three, four, four, etc."
When the assistant director said this, the main director of the program team roughly understood what the other party meant. In order to avoid Lin Long being completely isolated and no guests willing to team up with her, it would be much better to combine the two of them. At least it would not be so ugly, and it should be easier to find another member.
"Then who do you think would be a better match for Lin Long? Teacher Zhang Yi... what do you think?"
Don't blame the program crew for thinking of Zhang Yi first. After all, in the recent developments, Zhang Yi was the only guest that Lin Long gave face to. It seemed that apart from her, there was no one else to choose. The two looked at each other and decided tacitly.
Soon, after everyone had finished putting on makeup and digesting their food, the director began to announce the official tasks. The main content of the filming of "Wild Cooking Competition" was:
"Our show, 'Outdoor Cooking Competition,' will take place outdoors. Three cars are waiting outside, each representing a different team: Red, Yellow, and Blue. You will be divided into three groups, each with at least three people. Each team will also have a captain and a vice-captain. The rest of the team can choose freely. Let me first announce the captains and vice-captains for the three teams: Director Wu, captain of the Yellow Team, and Yu Yitong, vice-captain; Zhang Tianyi, captain of the Red Team, and Lin Zhuer, vice-captain; and Senior Zhang Yi, captain of the Blue Team, and Lin Long, vice-captain. Do you understand? Any questions...?"
However, just as the program director finished speaking, someone stood up with a frown on their face. Their slightly dissatisfied gaze fell on Lin Long without disguising it. Their eyes clearly said, "I think the arrangement of the Blue Team is inappropriate. It would be better if Lin Long and I went to the Yellow Team together. That way, the three men on the Yellow Team would be able to more easily 'take care' of Ms. Lin Long."
The person who spoke was named Fang Yuan. He was one of the few actors in the main cast who was not good-looking. He had a chubby figure and a cheerful personality. He was a comedian, but he was also the most upright and incorruptible. He hated to see people bullying the weak. In the new drama, he played the role of the male protagonist's funny and cheerful brother, a little timid, but also very righteous.
As for the two men in Team Huang mentioned by Fang Yuan, it goes without saying who Director Wu is. Yu Yitong is also a boss in the crew, and his seniority is comparable to Zhang Yi. With these three men, I'm afraid the "care" here is not just superficial "care", but more like "keeping an eye on" Lin Long and not letting her cause trouble.
Especially the female artists in their crew. Senior Zhang Yi had just had an argument with that Lin Long, and now they were in the same group, how could that work? Not to mention the fact that they would be split up later. They would be acting separately for a while. If something irreparable happened out of their sight, it would be bad.
Fang Yuan's coming out like this was expected, but also within reason. However, what they didn't expect was that not long after Fang Yuan finished speaking, a familiar female voice came over. This female voice was none other than Zhang Yi's voice:
"No, I'll just be in the same group with Lin Long. I'm fine, no need to change."
