As for this bodyguard, they’re an ultra-intelligent robot rewarded by the system.
Aside from being more robust and towering, there’s no other difference from ordinary people. He even has his own ID card, nad Gu Yi.
This greatly amused Gu Bai’s sense of humor. The first robot is nad Gu Yi, so is the second nad Gu Er, and so on in sequence?
However, being an ultra-intelligent robot, Gu Yi, as a bodyguard, is sowhat underutilized. A 10cm thick steel plate can be bent with a single punch. If he weren’t a robot, could any normal person achieve this? At this level, in ancient tis, it’d be fitting to beco a frontier-expanding general as renowned as Overlord.
After Gu Bai got off the car, several other n and won also got out of the other business cars. Besides his dorm mates Deng Bo, Wen Cunming, and Lou Xun, there were also a few girls, twins he t a few days ago, plus Yi Yiyi.
"Boss, I’ve already called and inford the Fuyao crew, they’ll be here soon."
Even facing Gu Bai, Gu Yi’s tone remained completely emotionless. Gu Bai was already accustod to the robot’s usual deanor, nodding slightly at him. Whether psychologically or physically, Gu Bai couldn’t think of him as just a robot.
"Gu Bai, is Fuyao filming in Hengdian?"
Everyone gathered around Gu Bai, Deng Bo glanced at the surrounding scenery, and asked Gu Bai.
"Where else could it be?"
Gu Bai countered.
"8.5 billion production, I thought it was shot globally."
Deng Bo grinned sheepishly.
"A Hua Country period drama, can they go to Europe and Arica for locations?"
The group shared a good-natured laugh.
"Oppa, is this what’s known as Hua Country’s Hollywood film base?"
Park Yichun looked at the surroundings, surprised, and asked Gu Bai.
Gu Bai nodded gently at her.
Several decades ago, Hengdian was still an obscure small town. With the continuous upgrade and developnt of Hengdian Film City’s cultural films and tourism products, it has beco a national-level scenic area, also Hua Country’s only national-level film industry experintal zone, with almost half of Hua Country’s period dramas originating here.
As a tourist scenic area, despite not being holidays, there were still plenty of tourists around. Suddenly hearing screams, a group ca out from inside the film city.
The leaders among them were Yang Function and important leaders of the Fuyao crew.
"Chairman Gu, welco to Hengdian. You say you didn’t let anyone know ahead of ti, we were still filming, weren’t prepared at all when you arrived."
Yang Function, dressed in bright red costu with heavy stage makeup on his face, couldn’t help but complain to Gu Bai.
Originally intending for just a quick visit to the Fuyao crew, at most sending a few crew mbers to guide the way. Unexpectedly, all the key crew mbers showed up, not a single lead actor or director absent.
Gu Bai underestimated his influence in the entertainnt circle. Not to ntion, Fuyao’s largest investor now is Gu Bai; everyone present is basically reliant on him.
"My bad, my bad, I was just passing by to check on the crew, didn’t expect you all to show up, will be mindful next ti."
Facing Yang Function’s playful complaint, Gu Bai smiled and offered an apology.
Though Gu Bai’s apology was casual, the group couldn’t bear it, responding it’s okay repeatedly, even Yang Function joked: "There’s no next ti, our crew is well-funded, speeding up filming, may wrap up in a month or so, if not for quality, progressing faster could even finish before year-end."
Gu Bai rely smiled at Yang Function’s words, without responding.
He only cared about investnt returns, and had no interest in interfering with filming specifics.
"Chairman Gu, there’s too many people here, shall we head back to the crew to have a proper chat?"
Director Yang Wenjun chid in, seeing the growing crowd.
Gu Bai glanced at the surrounding tourists, agreeing with Yang Wenjun’s suggestion with a slight nod.
Amidst the Fuyao crew’s escort, Gu Bai slowly walked into the film city.
Deng Bo and others followed beside him, full of envy.
This is what it’s like to be a big shot, even if they establish themselves in the entertainnt circle, they likely wouldn’t enjoy Gu Bai’s current treatnt.
However, upon reflection, they were able to co to terms with it.
How many like Gu Bai exist in Hua Country? People like him even envy is out of reach, only admiration arises.
As the Fuyao crew and others left, the tourists and hidden paparazzi began chatting.
"Who’s that young guy just now? The Fuyao crew stopped working just to greet him?"
A paparazzo with a cara asked his colleague.
"Bro, new to the scene, right?"
The asking paparazzo nodded, looked puzzled at his colleague’s reply.
"How can you not know who he is and still be a paparazzo?
Gu Bai, the budding mogul of the entertainnt circle. Nearly half of Fuyao’s investnt is from him. Now do you think the crew stopping work to greet him is an exaggeration?
Forget who he is, we’ve completed today’s task squatting in Hengdian, mogul visiting Fuyao, isn’t it juicy material, just hand it over to the boss."
The seasoned paparazzo, with a clear understanding of their role, packed up the cara intending to leave.
"You’re leaving now? Not shooting more? Might catch so scandalous material later!"
The seasoned paparazzo looked at him as if he were an idiot.
"Go ahead and risk it then, don’t drag along, even if you catch sothing explosive, would you dare publish it? You publish today, might be blacklisted in the industry by tomorrow. Encounter a hot-headed one, you wouldn’t even have a peaceful life afterwards.
We photograph celebrities because they’re reliant on public image, filming scandalous news about Gu Bai doesn’t affect him but spells disaster for you."
Finished speaking, the seasoned paparazzo packed his cara, ignoring him, turning to leave.
Only the other paparazzo was left hesitating, staring in Gu Bai’s direction before deciding to follow his colleague.
The colleague’s right, so people are untouchable, lacking courage to offend.
Those living at the bottom often better understand what it ans to avoid harm and protect interests.
.......
Gu Bai walked in the center of the crowd, steps steady, expression composed.
So supporting roles unfamiliar with him couldn’t help but secretly glance at Gu Bai. They’ve certainly heard of his reputation, but seeing him in person was a first.
Undeniably, this iteration of the Fuyao project is very financially formidable.
The vast Qin Palace scenic area completely occupied, surrounded by "No entry" signs.
"Chairman Gu, this is our Fuyao crew’s site in Hengdian. Besides here, we’ve got multiple filming bases in Yun Dian Province for locations, aiming to make Fuyao a benchmark for dostic dramas."
Yang Wenjun spoke with full enthusiasm to Gu Bai.
If Fuyao breaks records, as the main director, Yang Wenjun will surely gain both fa and fortune. So, he’s more invested than even Yang Function the lead actor and investor.
"I entrust this project to Director Yang for extra care. Once we wrap filming, I’ll make sure everyone gets a generous red envelope."
Gu Bai smiled as he addressed the group.
Yang Function chid in along with Gu Bai’s joke: "Chairman Gu, any red envelope for ?"
"You’re not getting one, moreover, you have to contribute to the red envelope funds."
"Yet I’m actor first, investor second. President Gu, isn’t this unfair?"
Seeing Yang Function chat and laugh freely with Gu Bai, everyone was envious.
Among so many, Yang Function is arguably most qualified to converse equally with Gu Bai.
This set the surrounding small actors looking up to Yang Function as a goal, wishing for a day they too could comfortably converse before a mogul like Gu Bai.
