Chapter 455
“3, 2, 1!”
As Zhou Xiao's silent countdown ended, the sound of the rapidly spinning drone propellers in the square grew louder. At first, it was just a low-pitched hum, but as the drones began to take off, the hum gradually gave way to a dull, heavy roar.
Zhou Xiao raised his head and looked at the drone that was already fixed and hovering in the sky, his eyes focused on the group of drones that were now preparing to give everyone a wonderful performance.
The roar of the crowd seemed to freeze the moment they took flight. The awe of the scene couldn't be felt through a screen. Only when you actually see the drones overhead, their orderly arrangement in the air, can you truly appreciate the allure of these machines.
"Why aren't the drones flying in the sky illuminated?" Someone in the crowd asked as they looked at the drones parked in the air.
This question was on the minds of many in the room, but before anyone understood how drones performed, no one said anything. Sure enough, as soon as the question was posed, those who understood began to respond.
"It's part of the show, you guys..."
"Wow! Mom, there are trees in the sky!" The tender voice of a child interrupted the beginning of this popular science lecture, and everyone around subconsciously looked in the direction of the child's finger.
A three-dimensional, growing tree appeared against the pitch-black night. Accompanied by the drone's drone, it began to flourish from its sapling stage. Its outstretched branches gradually grew from slender to sturdy, and its emerald green leaves gradually enveloped the entire canopy.
Suddenly, a swirling "white spring breeze" moved toward the tree. As the wind approached, the once dense canopy began to transform. Pale purple flowers quietly blossomed, a scene so romantic and dreamy that it captivated everyone.
"Chinaberry! This is a Chinaberry!"
Tiao Si in the square pointed at the tree in the sky and couldn't help but shout with joy. After confirming that it was her heart-pounding support, she recognized it immediately!
Before anyone else could react, the drone in the sky began to shift again. Almost instantly, a pixelated figure suddenly appeared standing beneath the tree.
Drooping branches, tiny purple flowers blooming beside their ears... When the image etched in Ji Shao's DNA appeared in the sky, they all subconsciously held their breath, as if they were afraid that if they exhaled, the image would disappear with it.
This was the first picture from the launch of the "Pianran Xindong" website, Ji Shao's first fan page picture, and the first picture that countless Ji Shao fans found their way into the fandom. Even though more and more amazing pictures have been produced in the fandom since then, this one will always be the most special in the hearts of longtime fans.
Because of it, they met Ji Shao.
Qi Sisi, who was standing next to her friend, was completely shocked. She knew that Xiaoxiao had prepared a big surprise, but she never expected that the surprise would be so big right from the start!
Glancing around, she saw many people sharing her shock. The normally bustling crowd was now glued to the drone show.
The treetops moved again, and many people instinctively raised their hands to catch the falling neem flowers. But they soon realized that this was just part of the drone show.
The chinaberry blossoms tumbled down from the tree in the "wind," and the green leaves were unnoticed, dyed with autumn yellow. After a flash of light, the "big tree" disappeared. In its place, a cute version of Xie Zhengyun appeared, riding a white horse and holding a spear.
Several drones responsible for filming and recording flew through the 3D pattern, occasionally capturing fans and passers-by in the square with stunned eyes.
But it wasn't over yet. A number of drones, previously suspended in mid-air for a long time, finally began to move. Like dust kicked up by the hooves of a galloping horse, the flying "sand" swirled through the air, bearing witness to the sheer speed and passion of the moment.
The people in the square were stunned. Not only them, but even the audience in the live broadcast room were stunned as well. They even forgot to type "666" on the public screen.
Many people had already started live streaming when the drone show began. Because it was broadcast on a public platform, the number of viewers in the most popular live streaming room quickly reached over 100,000.
The drone show in the air is still going on. On Douyin and forums, two places where information is most circulated, netizens have already started a crazy discussion mode about the video transmitted from the scene.

[Topic] Help! Am I the only one whose drone support is still stuck in the 2D era?
[Main Post] Sister Zhou’s support is too crazy. How much does this programming cost? Can you tell me so that I can give up?

Help... Uncle Wei even liked this video online! Speaking of which, this drone show has even trended online, so it feels like it's going to go viral again. Several posts in the square have over a thousand comments! You know, the comment system on online forums is really hard to use [facepalm].

Holy crap!!! Everybody come look at this!

The picture shows a pixel flower wall, which is a 1:1 replica of Zhou Xiao's flower wall support
…
At the sports plaza, the crowd surrounding the flower wall suddenly erupted in cheers. The drone in the sky not only perfectly replicated the flower wall, but also displayed a dense array of miniature figures alongside it. Even though they knew it was just a coincidence, they couldn't suppress the excitement and thrill in their hearts.
The cheers in the square seemed to have attracted a drone. Standing in the crowd, Xu Wenjing almost immediately raised her hands and cheered at the drone. She loved her own bravery so much!
If she hadn't mustered up the courage to find Zhou Xiao and get the concert tickets, everything tonight would have had nothing to do with her! Brave people can truly enjoy the world first! And she was able to witness this moment with her own eyes, fortunately putting herself in the crowd beside the sky flower wall.
Xu Wenjing felt this moment was truly complete. All her reluctance and regrets were now overwhelmed by immense joy. She was grateful for the summer two years ago, which allowed her to experience this story and also gave her the opportunity to enter this summer's finale.
The drone that caused the cheers did not stop.
At the last moment, they presented a unique fireworks display late into the night for everyone. There was no blast of fireworks, but the display had the same brilliance and fleeting beauty.
The landing drone looked like the debris left after a firework exploded, with a hint of fireworks color, landing steadily on the ground that was specially separated.
Almost the moment the drones touched down, the entire stadium erupted in thunderous applause. Everyone understood the grandeur and magnificence of tonight's drone show. The thrill of their performance was truly worthy of everyone's heartfelt gratitude.
However, Zhou Xiao wasn't present at the event. As the drone show drew to a close, she was surrounded by representatives from several fan clubs. Seeing their expectant eyes, Zhou Xiao waved her hand, signaling for everyone to follow her to a quieter place for discussion.
In truth, she already knew what they were doing around her. They'd all been watching the show together offline since the talent show days, and Zhou Xiao still had their contact information in her chat app. When Cheese asked to "borrow" her drone at noon, she knew others would definitely come asking to borrow one. After all, with so many people online, it would be a shame not to have a drone to record it.
Drone registration in Jinling was extremely difficult. Zhou Xiao had speculated that the difficulty this time might be related to her application for thousands of drones for a performance. Once her airspace application was officially approved, the difficulty for these support groups to apply again would undoubtedly increase exponentially.
Since there might be a reason on his part, Zhou Xiao didn't hold back and asked directly, "Do you have any fans who can use a drone? I can lend one to each of you, but you'll have to figure out how to film it yourself."
After Cheese came to Zhou Xiao to solve the drone problem at noon, he immediately hired a drone operator at a high price. Although it was just for shooting offline support videos, if you want stable and beautiful footage, it is more reliable to hire a professional.
Several members of the fan clubs were all in tears. They hadn't expected Zhou Xiao to be so generous, and for a moment they were so moved that they didn't know what to say. However, the person in charge of the group fan club was more straightforward. He grasped Zhou Xiao's hands with both hands and almost knelt down to acknowledge her as his godmother.
What does it mean to provide timely assistance? This is it!
It was a blessing that Heartbeat was able to lend them a drone. As for the technicians in this field, to be honest, with so many fans at the scene, it was really possible to find several.
Zhou Xiao accepted the IOUs one by one, looked at the back of a man holding a drone in front of him, and couldn't help but smile up.
When she looked back at the square where the drones were parked, most of the onlookers had already left. Now, two or three people were gathered together, filming with their phones. When they saw Zhou Xiao's gaze, they greeted her in a familiar manner.
The security team had already taken care of the remaining drones on the field. Their mission tonight was to guard and recover them. Thanks to the system, Zhou Xiao felt relieved and didn't have to worry about anything.
After greeting some enthusiastic passers-by, Zhou Xiao was about to return to the main group to shoot a cheering video when he suddenly felt that the scene seemed to be getting a little lively.
It's a feeling that the number of uniformed security personnel in the square is more than before... more than double?
Elsewhere, the members who had watched the drone show were filled with envy. Ji Shao's head, originally smacked with mousse by the makeup artist, had now been completely messed up by the others. Of course, their respective hairstyles weren't much better.
During the day, the members and their respective agencies discussed for a long time, hoping to interact with fans offline after the concert. This proved difficult, as evidenced by the obvious opposition from several agencies. However, for some reason, after initially refusing to budge, they finally agreed before the concert officially began.
The nine members wanted to prepare a small surprise for the fans, mainly by secretly appearing at the scene while they were filming offline support videos and recording a video with them.
Because it was a spur-of-the-moment decision, the agencies, led by Xincheng, banded together to bring in professional security personnel from other parts of Su Province for the nine members. Due to the tight schedule, the drone support helped to distract the group, allowing the security personnel to arrive on time.
Unbeknownst to the fans still queuing in the square, this was Nine Star's final group activity. It was also their true, perfect ending to the group's two-year existence.
…
"Teacher Xindong!" "Sister Xindong!" "Sister, I love you!" "..."
In the offline base camp of Tiaosi, after seeing the arrival of Zhou Xiao, whom everyone had been thinking about, the order that had been maintained almost became lively again.
Zhou Xiao had originally planned to slink back and stand with Qi Sisi and the others. But the fans offline disagreed. There was even a small argument among the girls in the middle of the first row over who should make room for her. They all wanted Zhou Xiao to stand next to them, or in their own spot.
Zhou Xiao received everyone's enthusiasm, but accepting it in her heart was enough. After walking through the long corridor and being hugged tightly by her friends, she finally felt the relief of a heavy burden finally being lifted.
The vast crowds of people were so numerous that only a drone could capture all the sweet potato fans in the scene. The technician sitting on a small bench took a few tactile attempts at controlling the drone, but from the first touch, he felt the silky smooth feel of a high-quality drone.
After a few rounds of pleasant operation, just when the technician was about to call the big customer Cheese, he suddenly found that outside the dense circle of light signs in the square, a circle of dark shadows was slowly approaching the main group.
The technician operating the drone was a bit panicked, but he instinctively maneuvered the drone closer to the circle of shadows. When he saw Ji Shao clearly on the screen, waving at the camera with his head held high, he froze. Then, as if realizing something, he quickly locked the drone's camera on Ji Shao, making him his primary focus.
Here's your chance to make big money!
At this moment, almost all the drone operators noticed the unexpected circle of people, and everyone's operations were in rare synchronization. The purpose was to record this unexpected and surprising moment with the members as the center!
