Anton controlled the speed of the ship, and he shortened the seven-hour voyage to five hours. At 2:30 in the afternoon, the cruise ship broadcast sounded, and it was Bai Yang's voice again.
"Attention, tourists! We're about to arrive at our destination, Cyberpunk New World City. Please hold onto your children! We're entering the city!"
Employees: “???”
What is the destination?
Yan Lu took Lan Caiying's hand and went up to the deck. He looked into the distance and his pupils suddenly shrank. Was that the extraordinary thing that Shi Xirou was talking about?
The sharp-eyed child called out, "Mom, look! There's a flying car!"
After lunch, most of the employees returned to their suites to rest for a while. They always felt like they were dreaming and were not yet fully conscious.
Otherwise, you tell him that the towering buildings in front and the magnetic levitation sports cars shuttling between the buildings are real?
"Getting ready to disembark. Bring some food with you. There's no food in New Century City, but you can't litter anywhere. Violators will be fined NT$5,000."
Director Dou: "...Oh my god, honey, pinch me, have we traveled to another world?"
Mrs. Dou couldn't hear it. She thought to herself, "Oh my God, this is amazing! This is too magical!"
Chen Ci: Holy shit, I thought my brother was awesome for creating a holographic game, but Shi Xirou actually built a cyberpunk city. What kind of people are around me? I look so mediocre.
Li Shaolang: !!! I want to make a movie, a movie about the future! I want to win an Oscar for Best Director!
Li Anni: The boss always makes a big deal about team building. Is we going to travel to Xuantian Continent for next year's team building?
"Get off the boat! What are you standing there for? You're not dreaming. If you don't, I'll have the sailors go to Antarctica to see the penguins instead."
As soon as he finished speaking, Director Dou and Li Shaolang quickly got off the boat. A speeding car landed at the dock and opened the door automatically.
Welcome to Cyberpunk New World City. We are pleased to serve you at No. A1001. Please select your station.
Li Shaolang: "What station?"
[New Century Center Observation Deck, Underwater Paradise, Super Mall, Fairy Tale Dream Factory, Slums...]
Li Shaolang: "Let's go to the observation deck first."
Director Dou: "So advanced!"
After the car sped away, Director Dou's wife came back to her senses: "...He just left me like that and ran off with another man?"
Linglang: "Hahahaha, so funny."
The outskirts of the island are relatively backward, with electronic component waste and nutrient solution bottles everywhere on the ground, and some strangely shaped artificial flowers and plants growing on the roadside.
Gan Lanzhao gently tugged at Wei Jibei's sleeve and lowered his voice: "Brother Bei, do you feel that the bottle under your feet is a little familiar? It's a bit like the one the boss gave us to drink."
"so what?"
"Do you think the boss is an alien?"
"over thinking."
Gan Lanzhao: Are you really overthinking this? Where did the boss get all this high-tech stuff?
Wei Jibei: Ahhhh, why are you telling me this? I’m already imagining that the boss is a lizard man under his skin.
Compared to the adults who were in disbelief, bewildered and lost, the children were quicker to accept this magical place and gathered together chattering:
"So what the teacher said about flying cars in the future is true!"
"The words I made up in my composition to fill the word count have come true! I wrote about clothes that dry automatically, backpacks that grow and shrink, and schools that disappear automatically..."
"I want to ride a flying car, the colorful one!"
"Can this car fly into space?"
Seeing the child about to run away in the car, the employees rushed over in fear and asked, "Why didn't you wait for your mother?"
Kim Min-ah and several other South Koreans were stunned: "Really?" (Really?) (Wow!).
Shi Xirou shouted forward with a loud speaker: "Don't worry, go and have fun. There are no living people in there except us. There is no danger. Come back to the boat for dinner at six o'clock."
With her assurance, the rest of the group felt more at ease and boldly explored this new and strange island.
In the end, only Shi Xirou, Rong Jian, Yan Lu and Lan Caiying were left.
"Brother-in-law, don't you want to go play with Sister Lan?"
Yan Lu stared at the car parked in front of him and said, "A big tree attracts the wind. Aren't you afraid?"
Shi Xirou understood what he meant immediately. Today was indeed too high-profile, but she came through here just to shock the domestic entertainment industry, shock the world, and make a fortune by the way.
She only has this cyberpunk new world city, which is not as amazing as Rong Jian's holographic game.
"I'm not afraid. Without my permission, cars can't fly out, outsiders can't come in, and you can't find this place on the map.
The more openly I act, the less likely they are to do anything to me, because they don't know how many cards I have up my sleeve."
After the last hacking incident, the tax bureau has never come again. It’s just an installation for show. They’ve turned their attention to investigating other companies.
(After all, Shi Xirou had talked to the director of the Songcheng Tax Bureau: "I welcome you to come, but if Zhen Yueyue comes, the haters outside will spread rumors about us, Huohuang. Be careful. I will arrange studios for each artist to reasonably avoid taxes.")
Now the tax bureau is on her side. Destroying her as a major taxpayer will be a loss for Songcheng.
Besides, Wangwang is here, who can fire her early? Not even the higher-ups can do that.
Lan Caiying tried to smooth things over, patted Yan Lu's hand, and said with a smile, "We're on vacation, why are you talking to Xiaoshi about this? Come with me for a walk, and give the two young people some time alone."
Rong Jian said seriously, "Thank you."
Shi Xirou looked at him and said, "You really have the nerve to say thank you."
"Well, excuse me, could you please take me for a walk, Island Master?" Rong Jian leaned down, a faint dimple on her lips and a smile in her eyes.
"Let's go. Consider this a way of repaying you for showing me around the map. The Undersea Paradise is the most fun. Let's go there first."
To be honest, this was Shi Xirou's first time at the scene, and she had only seen 3D renderings on the Changwanhao app.
The entrance to the underwater park was near the pier. The car carrying Shi Xirou and Rong Jian passed through a glass tunnel and stopped at an elevator entrance.
The paradise seems to be covered by a transparent yet sturdy bottle, which gradually becomes larger from top to bottom, and its shape is similar to the conical flasks used to store large amounts of liquid in chemistry textbooks.
Zou Tao, Xu Wen, Li Xinyi and their families were all there, lying on the wall and staring at the creatures in the sea.
"Is it fun?"
Nian Nian excitedly replied, "It's fun! It's super fun!"
Xu Wen's daughter followed her sister and said softly: "Knocking ~ fun ~"
Li Maidong nodded happily.
Shi Xirou said a few words to them and took Rong Jian to sit on the recliner.
"Rong Jian, do you miss your family?"
Rong Jian leaned back in his chair and looked at the golden sand pool in front of him.
"My memories before the age of fifteen are of my grandfather who adopted me. Those days were pretty hard, but I don't usually think about them.
After returning to the Shen family, although I could feel their concern for me, I was not used to being close to them. I seldom chatted with them. I think they were less frequent. "
Shi Xirou looked at Nian Nian who was held in Zou Tao's arms and said, "I miss my parents and brothers so much."
"I know you will come back."
"What about you?"
"I will also try my best to go back."
