Chapter 872 Mr. Xi... (Update 1)
Ruan Qi didn't expect that he could actually grind out metal by just fiddling with it for a few times.
She quickly took the flashlight from Simon's hand and shone it towards the stone wall.
"What kind of metal is this?"
Under the bright white light, the stone wall exudes a metallic silver luster, and it looks like a bright starry sky.
Simon moved closer to the little girl and touched the stone wall twice with his hand.
"It's not a metal commonly used in making weapons." He frowned in disappointment. "It seems to be a rare metal."
Rare metals?
Ruan Qi was stunned, his eyes swept across the silver luster on the stone wall, and his heart began to pound wildly.
She anxiously asked in her heart, "Uncle Bai Li, where are the detailed information on the rare metal that was missing from that new weapon I designed earlier?"
Bai Li, who was eating spicy hot pot in the system, casually clicked on a large screen in the void.
Ruan Qi scanned the information at a glance, and finally, on the fourth page, he found the original appearance of that rare metal before it was refined.
The silver ore, dotted under the light, looks like a brilliant starry sky.
Ruan Qi's heartbeat was getting faster and faster.
She checked the information in the system several times and finally came to a conclusion.
The rare metals in this mine are most likely what she needs the most!
And this metal is the most important factor in whether the new weapon she designed can be successfully launched!
The little girl's hands were shaking with excitement. She stroked the silver-shining stone wall and turned to Simon and said, "Simon, I want to buy these rare metals!"
…
At this time, outside the Aru Mine.
"Director Jian, what do the people at the mine say? Where's Xiao Qi?"
"Don't mention it. They won't let me in." Jian Guoqiang angrily pulled his hat off. "I heard that something important happened. Not even a fly can fly into the entire mine."
"What should we do? Xiaoqi has been missing for four or five hours!" The makeup artist cried anxiously, "How about we call the police?"
"It's useless." Jian Guoqiang shook his head. "There are too many forces behind this mine. The YL police have no say."
As he spoke, he looked up at several members of the Wolf Fang Operation Team.
Unlike the panic-stricken crew members, Langya and his crew were extremely calm.
Seeing that they were not in a hurry, Jian Guoqiang quickly asked, "Do you have any ideas?"
"Not yet." Yehu replied.
Jian Guoqiang showed disappointment on his face, but before he could say anything, he heard Ye Hu change the subject -
"But don't worry, our Captain Bo has been through hundreds of battles and won't get into trouble easily. What's more..."
What's more, the man who heard the news that his fiancée fell from the mountain must have gone crazy.
I believe that it won’t be long before they can see the famous scene of “Rescuing Wife Across Thousands of Miles”.
Ye Hu, who knew his captain Bo and his brother and his wife quite well, was not at all panicked. He patted Jian Guoqiang's shoulder comfortingly and said, "Director Jian, it's not a good idea to let everyone stay here. Let's go back to the hotel first."
Jian Guoqiang was still a little worried. At this moment, Mo Lan, who was on the phone not far away, walked over with his cell phone.
"Director Jian, Brother Shen's call."
When Jian Guoqiang heard that it was Shen Wenqian, the guilt in his heart almost overwhelmed him.
The agent handed the girl over to him, but he just got rid of her.
Jian Guoqiang sighed and took the phone from Mo Lan.
"Wen Qian, I'm sorry, I..."
Before he finished his apology, Shen Wenqian's voice came from the other end of the phone: "Director Jian, this was an accident, you don't need to apologize."
Jian Guoqiang: "But Xiaoqi..."
"Xiao Qi is very capable, he won't die." Shen Wenqian, who had experienced countless storms, was extremely calm. He comforted Jian Guoqiang and then said, "Director Jian, now is not the time to blame yourself. The news of Xiao Qi falling from the mountain has not yet reached the country. You should know how huge a sensation this incident would cause if it were to be exposed."
A word can wake a person up from his dream.
Jian Guoqiang, who had been immersed in self-blame, suddenly shuddered.
The TV series "Blade" has always attracted much attention from the public. If the news of Ruan Qi falling from the mountain was revealed at this time, public opinion would definitely be in chaos.
Jian Guoqiang is not afraid of public criticism, as this is his responsibility. However, the impact and losses caused by the public outcry on the drama are immeasurable.
"Wen Qian, what are you going to do?"
"Suppress this news and don't let anyone back home know." Shen Wenqian's tone was very calm. "'Blade' is not only the product of your hard work, Director Jian, but also Xiao Qi's. She absolutely wouldn't want this drama to be attacked by public opinion. So, Director Jian, before Xiao Qi's life or death is officially confirmed, you must control everyone's emotions and absolutely cannot let the news of Xiao Qi's accident leak out!"
"Don't worry about that," Jian Guoqiang promised solemnly, "With me here, no news will be leaked from the crew. I'm just worried about reporters and paparazzi..."
Shen Wenqian: "You don't have to worry about this. The Xi family and Xiaoqi's brother have already issued a gag order. No one in the country dares to commit a crime at this time. As long as the people in your crew don't do anything weird, this matter will never be known to the public online."
When Jian Guoqiang heard this, his heart was shocked.
The Xi family actually issued a gag order to the media for Ruan Qi!
This girl's importance in the Xi family is probably more important than he thought!
Suddenly, Jian Guoqiang felt under tremendous pressure.
If something happens to Ruan Qi this time, given Xi Jiu's style, his career as a director will probably be over.
Jian Guoqiang's head was buzzing with pain. He rubbed his temples uncomfortably and asked, "Wen Qian, does Master Xi know about this?"
Shen Wenqian: "I know. Master Xi knew it earlier than I did."
Jian Guoqiang's heart skipped a beat.
"Then Mr. Xi is now..."
Buzz buzz buzz——
A huge roar rolled in from the horizon, drowning out the second half of Jian Guoqiang's words.
Shen Wenqian on the other end of the phone didn't hear clearly and couldn't help but shout into the phone: "Hello?! Director Jian?! What did you say just now? How is Mr. Xi now? Hello?! Director Jian, why is there such a loud noise over there? What's going on?!"
“…” Jian Guoqiang also wanted to know what was going on.
He raised his head and looked at the dozen or so black helicopters circling in the air with everyone else in confusion.
"Why are there so many helicopters?!"
"Oh shit! Did something happen? It feels so scary!"
"Didn't they say that an important person was trapped under the mine? Could they be here to rescue him?"
Everyone was gossiping loudly in the midst of the huge noise.
At this moment, Xixi and Xibei, who were hiding in the crowd, suddenly came out.
The two walked side by side to the open space, and then, under the puzzled gazes of the crowd, they raised a small red instrument in their hands and waved it vigorously towards the sky.
