Chapter 646 Epilogue 1: I Want to Be a Star
At 7:00 AM on February 6th, I arrived at the ticket office for the Bainiao Lake Scenic Area. Qingruo, Ningjing, and Pan Yinlian were already waiting for me there, and we had a brief meeting.
I said, "Everything will be carried out according to the standards of the official opening."
At 7:30, the company leaders, Mr. Chen and Mr. Xiao, arrived, and I gave them a brief report.
At exactly eight o'clock, several tourist buses arrived, and a hundred-person experience group arrived.
At 8:20, another small car drove up, followed by several large buses.
Qing Ruo and I, along with Mr. Chen and Mr. Xiao, went forward to greet Mr. Deng and Mr. Wang.
Everyone knows Mr. Deng, and I mainly introduced Mr. Wang.
Everyone was present. Pan Yinlian instructed them to stand in several rows in the large square and explained the requirements of the experience.
She said: "Emotional experience is an important interactive content of Daughter Island. Regarding this program, since General Wan proposed the concept, we have revised the plan twice, changing it from the original street chase to a large-scale indoor performance.
The performance festival has been changed from the original "I Am Pan An" to "I Want to Be a Star." In the morning, Mr. Wang Luqing will experience the emotional program "I Want to Be a Star." In the afternoon, Mr. Deng Fugen will experience the customized program "Visiting Guests from Other Planets."
In order to let everyone understand the rules and participate proficiently, now one, two, three, face-to-face group, please enter 5678.
Okay, we're all in a WeChat group. I'll send everyone the requirements and updates, and I'll also use voice chat to guide everyone's interaction in the group. That's all for me, and now the experience begins."
A huge electronic screen on the shore displayed lines of red text:
Emotional experience protagonist: Wang Luqing.
Full-time tour guide: Pan Yinlian.
The following is the text and sound synchronization broadcast:
"Dear tourists, today is a beautiful day in Shangzhou. During the trial operation of Daughter Island, we welcomed the first emotional experience volunteer, Mr. Wang Luqing.
The joyful and exciting experience begins now. Please board the cruise ship that sails across Bainiao Lake and watch the special ceremony on the island welcoming Mr. Wang Luqing.
We boarded the cruise ship. Only Pan Yinlian accompanied Wang Luqing.
Loudspeaker broadcast:
"Mr. Wang, accompanied by our island's top tour guide, Ms. Pan Yinlian, slowly walked towards the crossbow launcher. Guide Pan has already inserted the landing card into the crossbow launcher."
As soon as this commentary ended, a crossbow rose into the air, and the arrow exploded in mid-air.
Seven words floated in the sky: Welcome Mr. Wang Luqing.
Mr. Deng said, "Mr. Chen, your Wan Shanhong is a talent."
Mr. Chen smiled.
Lao Xiao said: "As long as he has money, he can come up with a lot of new tricks."
The loud speaker sounded again:
"Brothers Ruan Xiaoer, Ruan Xiaowu, and Ruan Xiaoqi's speedboat has departed from Daughter Island. They are going to the other side to pick up Mr. Lu Qing. Distinguished quality starts with a special boat transfer—"
A speedboat shot out from the other side, and three villagers in ancient costumes came out, one at the helm and two at the bow.
As we approached the shore, two men wearing felt hats and double-breasted jackets stood at the bow. They clasped their fists and said, "Bowls of rice, buckets of water island flowers. May I ask what kind of flowers they are, sir?"
Pan Yinlian clasped her fists and replied, "The spring breeze in February is like a gentle breeze on one's face. Mr. Wang is a supermarket flower."
The two men in felt hats clasped their fists and said, "Mizushima Ruan Xiaoer, Ruan Xiaowu, and Ruan Xiaoqi have been waiting here for a long time. Please come aboard, Mr. Wang."
We all burst into laughter on this boat.
Loudspeaker voiceover:
"This island's original ritual, the secret code connection has been completed, and the first emotional experiencer, Mr. Wang, has boarded the ship. The wind is right, the sails are full, the lake is calm on both sides, and the boat is ready to sail."
The speedboat sped towards Daughter Island.
The experience boat also sailed towards the other side.
There were many young people on the cruise ship. I don’t know who organized them, but they all shouted:
"Wanmi Dandan Wanmihua, we are observing the flowers, come and pick us up."
Then there was a chaotic shouting: "Where is Sun Erniang? We want to experience it."
Mr. Chen said, "Mr. Deng, this opening is still acceptable."
Mr. Deng said, "I've heard Shanhong introduce it to you, but seeing is believing. Wait till you get your money."
Everyone laughed.
Everyone arrived at the shore, went up to the pier and landed on the island together.
Yinlian extended her right hand and guided, "Please ask Mr. Wang to ring the first bell upon entering the island and notify the beautiful island owner to prepare. Dress up to welcome the guests."
Wang Luqing took the hammer given to him by Yinlian and hit a big bell.
With a "clang", water columns shot out from the surface of the lake.
Loudspeaker voiceover:
"Daughter Island is a place of joyful mountains and waters, and Wang Luqing is a place of outstanding people and beautiful scenery. Please follow Mr. Wang and experience a different kind of customs."
There was a huge electronic screen on the island, broadcasting the live broadcast, and everyone could even see themselves when they looked up.
The loud speaker sounded:
"Next, we would like to introduce today's protagonist, Wang Luqing. He is an outstanding entrepreneur who has established a suburban supermarket model. His Liuye Supermarket will open on May 1st.
It can be said that he is a business genius, who can fight against any enemy with his generals and block any water with his earth. He can brandish his sword when trouble comes and play his flute when resentment comes, thus becoming a supermarket giant.
President Deng laughed and said, "Who wrote these corny flattering words?"
Qing Ruo replied, "Xuri's top writer, Director Chen Xiaoxia of the Public Relations Department, personally wrote this."
The voice-over of the loudspeaker sounded:
"Dear tourists, dear friends, the emotional experience is about to officially begin. If you like to watch this kind of performance, please rush to the No. 1 experience area on the main island.
You are welcome to scream, smash flowers, and smash fruits. You can get them for free at the front desk of Experience Area 1. Please be careful, because Mr. Wang is a scholar and cannot withstand your crazy torture.
Experience Area No. 1 is a bird's nest-style performing arts center.
The Performing Arts Center is actually three concentric circles.
The first circle is a rotating stage in the center, with a luxury convertible on top.
The second circle is outside the stage and has a circular open train.
The third circle is the stand, where people can sit around it.
Qing Ruo guided the leaders and General Deng to sit in the stands.
Ning Jing led the employee cheerleading team and took a train ride with the 100-member team.
Pan Yinlian was in charge of guiding Wang Luqing into the convertible. Then four female bodyguards boarded the car, holding wooden swords and standing on both sides to protect him.
Loudspeaker broadcast:
"Dear friends, a big indoor game is about to begin." Young Master Wang, sitting in the luxury car, was known as one of the Four Young Masters of Shangzhou. Due to incomplete historical records, since the Tang Dynasty, he has married 36 wives and 128 concubines, and has abandoned 287 infatuated women. He is a well-known unfaithful man and playboy.
What’s hateful is that in this life, he has become the boss of a supermarket. Oh, heaven and earth, why is it so unfair?
The audience laughed, applauded, and screamed.
Dear audience friends, there are all kinds of plastic products around you. If you want to be a person who enjoys life like Mr. Wang, just throw flowers, gold rings and embroidered bouquets at him.
If you hate this kind of person, we also have plastic bricks and other venting tools for you.
Dear friends, this is just an entertainment experience. Please don't take it seriously, but our staff will be fully committed.
Ready to start."
No one had ever experienced this kind of game before. Just as they were confused, the stage began to spin, and the train also spun with it.
Of course, the stands cannot rotate.
The loud speaker prompts: "Love him or hate him, just start smashing him."
The employees on the train began to perform. They shouted, screamed, grabbed the props around them and threw them at Mr. Wang in the center of the stage.
Some put their hands to their mouths and shouted: Mr. Wang, I love you——
Some shouted: I hate you——
Some shouted: Mr. Wang, I own half of the supermarket.
Some shouted: Mr. Wang, I have traveled across half of China to see you, you have to look at me.
Some shouted: "Mr. Wang, you are such an ungrateful man—"
Led by the employee actors, the 100-member observation group immediately understood what the game was all about and they immediately shouted out various calls.
There was jubilation in the venue.
On the train and in the stands, everyone threw things at the revolving stage.
The room was filled with a riot of color. Bouquets of flowers, apples, hydrangeas, and bricks were hurled at Wang Luqing. The employees of Wang's headquarters were particularly enthusiastic.
The four female bodyguards in the car kept waving wooden swords to shoot down the things that were flying towards them.
The tourists were enraged by the four sword-wielding girls. They couldn't hit Wang Luqing at all, so everyone started smashing things faster.
Some targeted Wang Luqing, and some targeted the four beautiful girls.
Plastic flowers, plastic apples, plastic bananas, plastic sausages, plastic gold rings…all fell from the sky, smashing down at once, forcing the female bodyguard to dodge left and right.
Plastic flowers, plastic apples, plastic bananas, plastic sausages, plastic gold rings...all fell to the ground.
Mr. Wang, please look at me. Smash!
Mr. Wang, I am Pan Tonglian. Smash!
Mr. Wang, don't run away. You're still mine even if you run to the ends of the earth. Smash!
Mr. Deng, Mr. Chen and Mr. Xiao laughed so hard that their stomachs hurt.
During the ten-minute chase, Wang Luqing fully indulged in the star addiction of being loved, hated, and chased by others.
Loudspeaker announcement: Results of the Ten Thousand People Chasing performance. Please wait, the results are being counted.
At this point, the stage stopped spinning, and the comrades who were smashing the flowers were tired, laughing until their stomachs hurt. "5-4-3-2-1," the statistics were projected on the big screen:
"Wang Luqing was pursued by 324 tourists, 278 of whom were women. 51% were between 25 and 30 years old, 47% were between 31 and 40 years old, and 2% were over 40 years old.
Conclusion: Mr. Wang Luqing is a female killer who preys on both young and old.
Next, enter the second part of the experience - making up for regrets.
