Time goes back to the past.

Sheng Quan was woken up by a phone call while he was sleeping.

Although she liked to go to the crew to watch, she would not follow if the crew ran too far. After Yu Xiangwan explained the situation to her over the phone,

Sheng Quan, who was still a little confused, suddenly woke up.

Yu Xiangwan has always been very accurate about Sheng Quan's rest time. This is the first time he called her when she was sleeping, because he knew very well what answer Sheng Quan would give.

Sure enough, after confirming that the entire crew was safe, the person on the other end of the phone responded almost immediately: "Immediately report to the higher-ups and have our helicopters participate in the disaster relief. By the way, don’t the crew still have a lot of drones? Report them and send them out. I’ll transfer the money, and you can purchase some supplies and send them over with the crew’s car."

"War of the Worlds" is definitely well-equipped, not to mention helicopters and drones. The crew has to transport large-scale filming equipment and props, and the vehicles they use are all large transport vehicles that have been approved for funding and specially purchased, and sometimes they can even be included in the filming.

Yu Xiangwan agreed and quickly went to make arrangements.

Sheng Quan couldn't sleep in Shanghai, so she got up and checked the news about the flood in Lucheng. Sure enough, Weibo was refreshing the news almost every second.

The current filming location of "War of the Worlds" is not in Lucheng, but it is not far away. Otherwise, it would be difficult to fly there due to the short endurance of the helicopter.

But precisely because he knew that the helicopter's endurance was short, Sheng Quan made such a decisive decision to send his own helicopter for rescue, because at this time emergency rescue could only deploy nearby resources.

But even if we mix it, we won’t be able to mix much.

The China in this world is strong militarily, and its helicopter fighter jets are very well developed, but its rescue and transportation capabilities are not as strong as Sheng Quan's in his previous life.

This may be because the history of China in this world deviates from the history she knew in her previous life. For example, she had experienced a devastating earthquake in her previous life. She was still in school when the earthquake occurred and was dug out by hand by the rescue soldiers.

At that time, Sheng Quan had already lost her grandparents. Her parents, who had each started a new family, always treated her as if she did not exist. When she was trapped under the rubble, she didn't even know who to ask for help.

Then she was rescued by a group of soldiers.

She still remembers the pair of hands that pulled her out, which were even bleeding from the digging.

Sheng Quan was only 17 years old at the time. He was completely confused and didn't even have the chance to say thank you to the other party before they went to participate in other excavation and rescue operations.

She has always had a very good impression of soldiers, largely because of this reason.

In this world, an earthquake did occur in China at a similar time and place, but the magnitude was not very high and the damage caused was not great. It was only briefly reported when it happened.

When Sheng Quan accidentally learned about this, she was very happy. Although it was a different world, it was her hometown after all. At least in this world, it had not suffered too much damage.

Because he had been trapped before, even in his previous life, Sheng Quan, who was still a worker, would donate as much money and supplies as possible when natural disasters occurred.

She knew the feeling too well, helpless, scared, not knowing where hope lies, and if transportation was cut off, there would also be hunger and lack of medical care.

Although technology has developed to its current level, Sheng Quan, who has rich experience in donations, is well aware that these problems will still arise once the roads are interrupted.

Floods can also destroy communication cables, and trapped people may not even be able to make a rescue call.

However, she vaguely remembered that the book once described a character who donated money when a major flood occurred. The book did not go into details, but it seemed that it was a major flood that lasted for quite a long time.

Could it be the flood in Lucheng?

Unfortunately, the book does not describe the exact date, so it is impossible to confirm it 100%.

Sheng Quan searched again and confirmed that the scope of the flood was indeed still expanding. He quickly changed his clothes and opened the door. Hearing the noise, he saw that the light in Jiang Lu's room downstairs was on.

He glanced at the message, dressed neatly and went upstairs, and heard Sheng Quan on the phone: "Notify the students that there is a flood in Lucheng. I want to purchase a batch of relief supplies and send them over. If anyone is willing to be a volunteer, come with me. The daily salary will be tripled."

Jiang Lu stood at the door and knocked on it. Sheng Quan nodded to him and asked him to come in. He continued to instruct, "I'll make a list for you. Try to buy everything as quickly as possible. Thank you for your hard work. I'll give you bonuses when I come back."

Sheng Quan made several calls in a row before she arranged everything. When she put down her phone, Jiang Lu asked, "Are you going too?"

"Yes, I'll go too."

In his previous life, Sheng Quan also wanted to be a volunteer when natural disasters occurred. Maybe people are like this, because they have been helped, they want to help others even more.

However, as a worker exploited by the company, she even has very little sleep time, let alone taking out a few days to volunteer.

"It just so happens that I have nothing to do, so it would be nice to go and help out."

Even though she doesn't have any medical skills or can't swim, she has money. She can even buy everything, including transport vehicles and rescue supplies. As long as the merchant has them, she can buy them all.

Jiang Lu did not raise any objection to Sheng Quan's decision. The taciturn tall man nodded and said in a deep voice: "I'll go prepare the luggage."

It was not difficult for Sheng Quan to buy all the relief supplies in the shortest time possible. She really couldn't do much alone, but didn't she have many subordinates?

Sheng Quan has always disliked asking her subordinates for help with personal matters outside of working hours, but this time she made an exception. She did not take it for granted that it was for disaster relief. After all, if she wanted to do disaster relief, that was her business, and she couldn't morally blackmail her employees.

As someone who was often subjected to moral kidnapping in her previous life, President Sheng knew very well that it was not a pleasant feeling, so she sincerely apologized to the employees and said that she would definitely compensate them with overtime pay and bonuses.

The employees who were woken up were indeed resentful. After all, no one would be happy to be suddenly woken up to work while sleeping soundly.

But when he heard that it was for disaster relief, his resentment immediately decreased by half.

When he heard the chairman personally apologize to him and said he would compensate him, the faint resentment disappeared instantly, and he was even more excited as if he had been injected with three basins of chicken blood: "Okay, I'll do it right away. Don't worry, I will do it as quickly as possible."

The same thing happened to the kayak merchant who was woken up by a phone call. His first reaction was: "Are you crazy? It's not even daybreak, the store is closed, who cares what you buy?!"

When the person on the other end of the phone told him the specific amount and quantity of the items he wanted to buy, the merchant, who was originally sleepy and angry, suddenly perked up:

"How much do you want to buy?!!! Really? Yes, yes, we have stock, I'll get up right away!!"

After arriving at the place and delivering the goods, he finally remembered to ask, "Why did you buy so many kayaks so early in the morning? These things are not cheap."

When they heard that the money was to be used for disaster relief in Lucheng, the merchant, who was originally immersed in the mood of "getting rich", was silent for a moment, checked the current situation in Lucheng on the Internet, and then said: "Well, then I will donate a box, just as I have contributed my part."

Before the sky was fully bright, many sleeping merchants were awakened by phone calls, and they all experienced "anger - shock - half-belief - ecstasy - questioning - admiration".

Not everyone is willing to donate money and supplies to the disaster area and serve as a volunteer, but this does not prevent most people from admiring the volunteers who do so.

Before daybreak, many people were already busy working on this matter.

——At the Xingmang Security Training Base, three consultants walked out of the gate first, followed by a large number of trainees. Each of them carried a backpack equipped with various small tools and simple medical supplies. This was originally a kind of bodyguard training, but it was unexpectedly used now.

They walked hurriedly:

"Hurry up, each group will go to the car rental company in batches, and then go to the places where they need to get the equipment."

"Counselor, can't we decide who will be the driver? I can drive this kind of transporter."

"Director Sheng has hired a professional driver, so we will help carry the supplies and then have a good rest in the car. We will be busy again when we get there. Have you forgotten what you learned in the army?"

When the student heard this, he immediately stood still and saluted: "Report to the advisor! I didn't forget!"

"Okay, I see you didn't forget. Hurry up and get in the car. Let's go inside. I'll be in the same group with you guys."

——In the Xingmang meeting room, several accounting ladies were busy using their calculators and quickly calculated the amount:

"Director Sheng, the budget for all materials has been calculated. It is not much different from the previous estimate. You will need to pay about 12 million."

Sheng Quan took it, looked at it, and signed: "Let's do it."

——At the entrance of the tent factory, boxes were moved one by one. Secretary Zhang stood by and counted the number. He closed the small notebook in his hand only after all the boxes were moved.

"No problem. The car will be here soon. I'll need your help in moving it."

"No trouble, no trouble." Everyone in the factory smiled so hard that their teeth were not visible.

There is so much space that we would even be willing to ask them to move twice as much.

"Your boss bought so many tents to help the disaster area. He must be a very wealthy boss, right? And he insisted on buying good quality tents. If he bought the cheap ones, he could save a lot."

Secretary Zhang looked at the time and found that it was still early. He breathed a sigh of relief and was in the mood to answer:

"Our boss said that most of these tents are actually for disaster relief soldiers to sleep in. She wants to give them as much rest as possible, and low-quality tents won't do."

"Besides, she's not very rich."

"Yes, very, very, very, rich—"

*** When the sky was completely bright, the busy rescue workers in Lucheng looked up when they heard a huge roar.

"Helicopter!!! It's a helicopter!!!"

"So many helicopters, there must be more than a dozen of them?!"

The leader of Team 3, who had just returned from the flood fighting front, was surprised: "Where did Lucheng get so many helicopters?"

But even if we mobilize the nearest city with helicopters, it won’t be that fast.

"It's a film crew shooting a movie nearby. These helicopters are used by them for filming. They came here after they learned about the flood in Lucheng." The captain of Team 2 gave the answer.

The captain of Team 3 breathed a sigh of relief, and a smile appeared on his tired face:

"That's great. With these helicopters, the rescue operation will be much smoother."

He looked up and suddenly remembered something important: "It's hard for a helicopter to land in this situation. How experienced are their pilots?"

If the pilot is not experienced enough, it will be difficult to handle.

The captain of Team 2 laughed and patted him on the shoulder:

"Guess what? The crew is using professional pilots, hired at high salaries. I heard they are very capable and can even hover. Of course, we can't just rely on them. More than 20 pilots have already been dispatched and will be here to take over soon."

"They have already found two groups of trapped people. If they were any later, they would have been flooded. Now that we have a helicopter, it won't be a big problem. Look, they are working on a rescue plan inside."

The captain of Team 3 listened and his expression became more relaxed.

We were so lucky that there happened to be a film crew filming nearby. They also had a helicopter and they were willing to use it for disaster relief.

“This crew is really great.”

You know, in this kind of chaotic disaster situation, these helicopters will have some wear and tear to a certain extent, especially he recognized at a glance that these are the j500 series.

The j500 series are dual-use, and are indeed very suitable for rescue, but at the same time, they are quite expensive.

It's really remarkable that the crew was willing to risk wear and tear by bringing out these helicopters for spontaneous rescue operations.

"Not only that, the person in charge of their crew said that there are still supplies. Some were brought in by helicopter, and a large part is on the way."

The captain of Team 3 usually doesn't watch movies, but at this moment, listening to this, he was excited and happy, and his emotions finally turned into one sentence: "What's the name of their movie? When it's released, I must buy tickets to watch it, and I will also call my family and ask them to watch it too."

"It seems to be called... "Star Wars."

While the thirteen helicopters in Lucheng were hovering in the sky, looking for hope, the disaster relief convoy transporting supplies from the Magic City had already been equipped with supplies.

Thirty transport trucks were driving on the road. The large trucks of exactly the same model and color were lined up in an orderly row, making the other trucks look tiny.

"Fuck, what a big scene."

Some car owners watched from afar and sighed, while others inside their cars took out their phones to take pictures.

"It's weird. These cars don't look good when viewed individually, but how come they look so cool when put together?"

"Let me count... twenty-eight, twenty-nine, thirty... Shit, thirty trucks are traveling together. That's not right. Aren't trucks not allowed to leave at this time?"

With so many transport trucks on the road together, people kept posting pictures of them in various groups in Shanghai early in the morning.

Some said it was cool, some said it was against regulations, and some were wondering why the traffic police didn't stop the car.

Someone actually called the traffic violation hotline to report it, and after receiving a response, he immediately came to share it in the group.

[It turns out that those cars were going to Lucheng for disaster relief, and they were full of relief supplies! ]

[Although it is not officially organized, you can apply for special passes in this case, so the traffic police will not stop you]

Netizens in the group had no interest in this matter at first. Only those who had been fined points for traffic violations were left discussing it heatedly. The content of the discussion was roughly: I have been caught in the rain, so I want to break other people's umbrellas as well.

The result is now a complete reversal. The group members who were just passionately shouting "Why aren't they stopped?" and "Report, report" suddenly shut up.

Some people felt slapped in the face and pretended to be dead.

Other netizens who did not participate in the criticism process also began to speak out actively after seeing the reversal: [So that's how it is]

【30 vehicles, all filled with relief supplies, how could such a large-scale effort not be organized by the government? Could it be a private donation channel?】

[I searched and found that all channels are basically in the fundraising stage. The fastest time to buy supplies and send them is at noon. There is no news of major charity organizations having already set out.]

[Holy shit! Holy shit! I found out from my friend! The supplies on these 30 vehicles were actually donated by one person! One person! One person!!!]

As soon as these words came out, many netizens who had been lurking came out.

[One person? ? Thirty trucks of supplies? Damn, who is so awesome? ? ]

[My dad sells emergency drinking water equipment. He said someone called him before dawn this morning and bought a large batch of equipment. He asked why they bought so much, and those people said they were going to send it to the disaster area. Could it be them? ! ]

[Damn, now that I mention this, my colleague said this morning that someone went to the factory where her father works and bought a lot of life jackets early in the morning, and the boss was almost grinning from ear to ear]

[Oh my god, I saw the first news was released in the early morning. It’s only a few hours now, and they have already raised so many supplies. It’s amazing]

[My, my, my classmate's disinfectant was sold out. I also bought it around 4am. His parents were very angry to be woken up, but when they saw that he bought so much, they also gave him a box of iodine.]

As more and more comments such as “My house was bought out,” “My friend’s relatives were bought out too,” and “It’s the same at my workplace” appeared, people became more and more impressed the more they discussed it. Even netizens who originally thought it was normal for rich people to donate money and materials were touched.

We have all seen wealthy people or public figures donating supplies to disaster areas when natural disasters occur.

But this is the first time that a rich person has seen such a person, who, as soon as a disaster occurred, quickly spent money before daybreak, gathered thirty trucks of relief supplies at dawn, and then rushed to the disaster area without stopping.

Even those netizens who usually like to say sarcastic words have to admit that this is definitely a sincere effort to help with disaster relief.

[And they haven’t put up any banners yet, nor have they said who donated these supplies]

[It is obvious that this person has been busy preparing supplies since he discovered the disaster. How can he have the time to promote himself?]

[This is the person who really does things]

[I have a problem. The less publicity someone gives for doing good things, the more I want to know who he/she is.]

【Plus one】

[New news: There is a film crew filming near Lucheng. They have more than a dozen helicopters. After discovering the disaster, they drove the helicopters to participate in the rescue.]

【？ ？ ？】

[First of all, this is great. Then, a crew has more than a dozen helicopters? ? ? What kind of subject are they filming? ? ]

"We are shooting a science fiction film."

Sheng Quan did not follow the car, so he was able to arrive at the scene quickly.

Arriving with her were a bunch of new equipment she had purchased.

They were standing on a high place at the moment and could see the flood spreading in the distance. Next to Sheng Quan was the leader who came to receive her. They stood in the back, watching hundreds of people in the large square in front operating the drones they were responsible for.

Many crew members also mixed in.

As everyone operated, a buzzing sound was heard and drones flew into the sky.

Soon, the entire sky was filled with drones.

Compared with the thirteen helicopters, the scene of more than five hundred drones hovering in the air was even more shocking.

At least the leader who was in charge of receiving Sheng Quan had his pupils constricted.

Sheng Quan was still explaining to him: "For a science fiction theme, of course drones must be used."

In the sky, drones are flying flexibly towards the distance.

Looking from afar,

They were almost everywhere in the sky, looking like an army of drones.

Overwhelming——

In this increasingly large situation, Mr. Sheng's explanation no longer seemed so justified.

"So, our drone, a little bit..."

She coughed dryly: "A little much."
