The outer area of Tianjing Mountain.

?Director Lin, the plot now is much more complicated than the original plot, but the statue of the fairy sister that Young Master mentioned…? The stage manager stood in front of Director Lin who was eating snacks and carefully reported. ?Now, everything is ready except the part about the small animal leading the character into the cave. It?s not a problem if we use dogs because they are easy to train, but we are unable to find one in these woods. If we change to other animals, we are unable to train them. Also, we really can?t find a large enough jade for the statue. Why not we just tell Young Master and use 3D for the statue, that will be cheap and time efficient.?

?Sigh, do you think I don?t want to?? Lin Hao was depressed. ?If we use 3D, a simple colored model would do. After all, it just to show its face. As long as the camera shot isn?t too near and shows too much, it could be easily done. It would cost about only 10,000 yuan. But Young Master didn?t agree?he insisted on using a real one! Such a big piece of jade, even if we find one, it would cost at least a few hundred thousand yuan?and that?s not talking about sculpting it. And to find a master sculptor to sculpt it would cost another few hundred thousand yuan. What couldn?t he do with this money! How many snacks could that buy??

But talk was just that, talk. Lin Hao could only whine about it.

Hong Dali had already said that he would be paying the expenses. Thus, Lin Hao had no reason to refuse him.

?Sigh.? After giving off another sigh, Lin Hao asked, ?Oh right, have you found the cave for the fairy sister? According to the Young Master, it would be best to use a real cave. He will probably not agree to a set-up.?

The stage manager said, ?The cave isn?t a problem.? Speaking up to this point, he acted like a thief and moved his mouth near Lin Hao?s ear. ?I heard from those workers clearing the rubbish that some time back, because of the mudslide, a cave was discovered! A worker has already gone in and taken a look?it?s full of stalactites! As it hasn?t become a tourist attraction yet and this is Young Master?s territory, we should make use of this opportunity and ask Young Master to let us use that cave for shooting this scene. This cave was practically prepared for our movie!?

?There?s actually such a thing!?? Lin Hao was instantly alarmed. ?Where is that cave? Let?s go take a look first so we can prepare beforehand!?

?It?s about one kilometer in front.? The stage manager said, ?Why don?t we take a look now??

?It?s about 6:00 PM now…? Lin Hao looked at the sky. ?Forget about it, let?s just go now. Call another two fellows to come with us. Oh right, ask Sir Mu and Master Wang along too. They are skilled in kungfu. If there is any danger, they can handle it. There is no need to call the rest, the four of us will do. Prepare the lighting equipment too!?

…

?This is the place, right?? Hong Dali and the rest sat on their cars and directly went to the outer area of Tianjing Mountain. When they arrived at the location that Tang Muxin pointed out, they saw quite a lot of workers already gathered there holding a map and discussing something.

Hong Dali naturally didn?t know any of them. He was also lazy to bother about them. He and his group directly barged in and were stopped by a security guard just a few steps later. ?Stop, where are you guys from??

?Us? Where are we from?? Hong Dali strangely looked left and right, then pointed at his nose. ?We are students, can?t you tell?? Saying so, he looked at his lackeys and said, ?Oh, and a few lackeys too.?

?Please return.? The security guard was depressed. ?This isn?t some place where children can come and play.?

?About that.? Hong Dali was instantly angered to the point of amusement. ?I think you have gotten something wrong.? He pointed at the surrounding forest and the mountain. ?This seems to be my territory…?

?This…? Although the security guard didn?t know Hong Dali, just from his behavior he knew that this was someone he couldn?t offend. He could only appease him and said, ?Then, please wait for a while. I will go check with my superior.?

Saying so, he ran inside and shouted, ?Captain Zhao, Captain Zhao, someone?s here. He said that this is his territory and wants to go in and take a look. I don?t dare to make a decision. Please advise me on what to do.?

?What is he talking about, this place belongs to the nation!? An arrogant voice sounded out. ?Ask them to get lost!?

Hong Dali touched his chin and said, ?I don?t think I remember wrongly. I?m sure I bought this place.? Saying so, as he looked at around, there wasn?t a single plastic bag to be seen. ?There?s no mistake, this place was obviously cleared before. What situation is this??

At this moment, the security guard carefully said, ?Captain, I think it?s better if you go and take a look. I really dare not make the decision.?

?How are you doing your job? You don?t have any capabilities at all.? While saying so, a bald man walked out from the crowd. He seemed to be about 40 years old and was carrying a mug in his hand. With his beer-belly popping out from his shirt, once he saw Hong Dali and his group, he said, ?Hurry up and go back to where you come from. I don?t care who you are. This place has been expropriated by the nation, unrelated persons are not allowed to enter.?

?This…? Hong Dali gradually said, ?This place seems to be my home.?

?You are Hong Weiguo?s son, Hong Dali, right?? Captain Zhao looked him up and down. ?I know this is your home, but this place has been expropriated by the nation. It might become a tourist attraction, so it doesn?t belong to your house anymore. Hurry up and return home. I?m giving your Dad some face, so I?m talking to you nicely now.?

This dude knew that Hong Dali was Hong Weiguo?s son and still dared to be so arrogant.

By right, those who could do such a thing only belonged to one of two categories.

The first that this guy was a retard.

The second was that this guy was a retard and was also the person of a rival of the Hong Family.

Yup, from the current circumstances, the second scenario was more probable.

Hong Dali touched his chin. ?What if I refuse??

?You can?t refuse.? Captain Zhao said darkly, ?I know that your bodily condition isn?t good. I can?t touch you, but it might be difficult for your father, hehe.?

His standpoint was very clear once he said that.

He was obviously not on the same side as them and obviously had a backing that was his family?s rival.

Now, he was just displaying their strength to him. His meaning was simple?he had someone on top to back him up. Although the Hong family was a large business entity, Hong Dali still couldn?t do anything to him!

If it were some other nouveau riche, they would naturally get hot-headed, rush up, and prepare to slap his face. Then, this Captain Zhao would use various methods to defeat and embarrass them?this was what was written in the novels in his previous life. Normally, it was the nouveau riche who was the antagonist.

Naturally, Hong Dali wasn?t so silly.

Being a prodigal with ambition and aim, Hong Dali firstly had to consider if his opponent had any weakness. Therefore, he simply took out his phone and called his father. ?Dad, the outer area of Tianjing Mountain has been occupied by other people, and they aren?t letting me in.?

Hong Weiguo obviously knew who they were. He lowered his voice and said, ?Don?t go against them. Quickly return home first.?

?Ah, I wouldn?t go to that extent.? Hong Dali grinned and asked, ?I just wanted to ask, have they bought this piece of land??

?Oh? Not yet.? Hong Weiguo thought for a while. He wasn?t sure of Hong Dali?s meaning. ?They are still doing an exploration of the underground cave. As for the price, we haven?t finished negotiations yet. What?s wrong??

?Oh, since negotiations haven?t ended yet, then it?s simple.? Hong Dali sniffled. ?I was thinking. Since negotiations haven?t ended yet, then this land is still ours, it?s still our family?s. So, aren?t they trespassing on private property without the owner?s permission??

?Er… I guess so.? Hong Weiguo was dazed for a while before he understood Hong Dali?s meaning. ?You mean… Dali, don?t be rash. It?s not worth fighting with them.?

?Naturally, I wouldn?t be so rash.? Hong Dali said that matter-of-factly. ?However, I?m unsure if Chuyin will be rash or not. Hoho, then, Dad, I shall hang up first.?

?Chuyin?? Hong Weiguo put down the phone and murmured, ?Chuyin is with Dali now??

Thinking of this, Hong Weiguo fiercely slapped his thigh and laughed loudly. ?He is indeed my son! Brilliant! Brilliant! Hahaha! Zhu Guangyuan, I indeed cannot do anything about you sending your men and occupying that place, but I never expected that Dali would bring Chuyin with him. Now, you have to swallow your anger whether or not you want to, hahaha!?

As Hong Weiguo was laughing loudly in his office, Captain Zhao was laughing loudly too. ?Haha, kid, why, you want to strike at me? I?m warning you, you will be striking at a civil servant?you will be liable to be punished under the Nation?s law. By that time, even your father, Hong Weiguo, won?t be able to save you!?

?I never said that I would be doing anything to you.?

Hong Dali?s face was full of naivety, his eyes widely open. ?Uncle Zhao, you have thought wrongly. How could a weak person like me use violence on you?? Saying so, he walked aside. ?Chuyin, this person is preventing us from entering. What do you think we should do…?

?Oh, understood.? Lin Chuyin?s body instantly gave off the metallic sounds of machines moving, and her right arm was quickly covered by her exoskeleton armor. She insipidly said, ?Target confirmed. Attack.?

As she spoke, the area under her feet exploded, and her whole person rushed forward. In the blink of an eye, her right arm was already pressed against that Captain Zhao?s chest. Then, an extremely cold voice sounded off. ?30,000 volts!?

Then, they heard the sizzling sound of something being electrocuted. The sad Captain Zhao?s hair was standing on end, just like the character ?Heihachi Mishima? from the video game ?Tekken? from his previous life?bald in the center and the hair at the sides standing up… that appearance was fabulous!

Seeing Captain Zhao lying on the ground trembling continuously, Hong Dali gave a deep sigh, his face full of innocence. ?Sigh, why must you block Chuyin?s path out of all people. This is really seeking one?s own death…?
