Rebirth of the Godly Prodigal

Give my view of the plot of the movie? The plot for The Gale Flash ?

That’s good, we still don’t have anything to do over the weekend! Hong Dali smiled and immediately agreed. “Alright, it’s a deal. Where will we meet? If it’s too far away, then forget about it.”

After hearing Hong Dali agree, Ding Chengzhi was obviously in a good mood. He smiled and said, “Speaking of which, this was all thanks to Young Master. After signing the contract last time, we had already begun to change the plot. However, we were unable to find a good filming spot yesterday, and thus, wanted to ask Young Master for your opinion. However, you were in class, so we decided not to bother you.”

Speaking up to here, Ding Chengzhi smiled again and continued, “Speaking of which, Young Master Dali certainly does have great foresight!”

“Uh, what are you talking about?” Hong Dali asked curiously. “How has it got to do with me having a great foresight?”

“It’s like this.” Ding Chengzhi said with a smile. “We were originally frustrated about the shooting location as there were no clean places in the country where the mountains and rivers are not polluted. If we were to clean it temporarily, it would be too much trouble and a waste of time. If we don’t clean a place, we will have to rely on 3D animation, which is not a small expense. As a result, when I called Ms. Xiaoyi yesterday, Ms. Xiaoyi said that there is a sizeable plot of land that has already been cleaned in the outer ring of Tianjing Mountain. Furthermore, it’s the property of Young Master Dali. Thus, we went there to shoot the movie.”

After reporting his current work progress, Ding Chengzhi did not forget to say, “Ai, we only found out when we reached there that the place was so perfect. It perfectly suits the atmosphere of our scene in the movie! Young Master Dali, did you know, with this location, I dare say that we have saved at least half a million in production costs!”

“…” Hong Dali twitched his nose. When he bought the area initially, he did not have any plans for it. He merely found it an eyesore for it to be littered with rubbish, and thus, ordered for it to be cleaned. Unexpectedly, such an action even brought about such use. But in any case, Hong Dali finally understood. “You mean that you’re now near the periphery of Tianjing Mountain? Okay then. You can all go to Ye Lai Xiang’s hotel to rest for the night for free. I will go to the shooting scene tomorrow to look at the progress, hehe.”

With Hong Dali’s agreement, Ding Chengzhi was satisfied and happy.

It was a pleasure to work with Young Master Dali. Not only did one not need to worry about the shooting location, but the lodging and meals were also well taken care of too.

Was there even such a nice boss? Only such a boss could be considered impressive. One didn’t need to worry about anything related to money when working with him. If there were any difficulties, he would use money to settle it no matter how hard it was, even if it was a god blocking the way.

“Sure, that’s good.” Ding Chengzhi happily agreed. “We will have to trouble Young Master Dali then, hehe.”

“Speak less nonsense. If there’s nothing else, I will go back to sleep first.”

After playing for the whole of today, Hong Dali was indeed tired. Thus, he immediately hung up.

After hanging up though, there was a strange silence around him.

Tang Muxin was the first to react. She said, “Dali, you had long planned to use the area to film, right?”

“What do you mean by planned for it?” Hong Dali’s face was full of question marks. “I just bought it because the area seemed nice. Anyway, it was just to squander! Why do I need to plan and calculate when I buy something?” In the end, Hong Dali did not forget to add, “You’re doubting my character, that’s really bad!”

Pei Pei Pei! Tang Muxin didn’t bother arguing about such things. She pulled Hong Dali’s hand and said, “I don’t care whether you planned for it or not. Dali, do you understand? If we look at it in the short term, it does indeed seem to have taken a lot of money to purchase and clean the outer ring of Tianjing Mountain. However, if we were to construct a film base or something related and charge those that want to film there, and then build a horse farm, we would earn back lots of money. Also, also…” Tang Muxin said in a hurry. “Didn’t you also buy Fengyuan Lake? Let’s build a film base there! You can sell tickets for people who want to visit! If we were to connect it with the outer ring of Tianjing Mountain, it would become a big film base! We will earn back the cost in two or three years!”

Listening to Tang Muxin, Hong Dali did not respond. However, Mu Zixiao, who stood by the side, almost collapsed.

Before he came, he heard that Hong Dali squandered and bought a lot of lands because he thought it was fun. In the beginning, he had the same thoughts as Tang Muxin—Hong Dali was definitely not a normal prodigal. Moreover, he even took out three million to clean up the garbage on Tianjing Mountain.

When Mu Zixiao first heard the news, he almost laughed till he couldn’t breathe.

It was justifiable if Hong Dali had bought land suitable for the development of real estate, but the plot of land including Fengyuan Lake had been idle for so many years because there was no development value. The development area was a bit small, and no one would want to pay if it were to be turned into a park. Instead, Hong Dali bought the land for the purpose of walking the dogs.

The outer ring of Tianjing Mountain was even more not suited for development. The wild mountain forest was barely a good place to enjoy its greenery, and the most important thing in the place was that the country was paying attention to greening and afforestation these few days. Even if the outer ring of Tianjing Mountain was bought, there was not much of an area to build houses. If one wanted to cut the trees to build a villa, one needed to go to the Forestry Bureau to apply for a felling certificate. It was definitely not an easy process.

It was not an exaggeration to say that if the other plots of land were to be bought, they could be put to some use. However, these two plots were purely meant for people with money to squander.

However, after hearing the phone call and Tang Muxin’s analysis, Mu Zixiao immediately felt coldness from his toes to his head.

Because he thought of Unexpectedly! .

Ignoring others, in the first episode of Unexpectedly! , it riled up many to create wuxia films. What was the most important aspect of filming wuxia films? The scenery must be perfect, like that of the past. When one sees the background of the film, one must be able to link it to the landscape filled with mountains, greeneries, and water of the past.

Nowadays, with the high-paced economic development, it was not easy to find such a place in the whole country. Perhaps there were such places in the remote areas in the south, but it was too far from the urban area; thus, transportation of equipment would be quite troublesome. On top of that, some of the places were inaccessible by cars.

What about the outer ring of Tianjing Mountain? It was a six- or seven-minute drive, and the roads were wide and straight, with no chance of a jam. After filming in the day, the crew could even go to Ye Lai Xiang to have supper and bathe! And Ye Lai Xiang was also Hong Dali’s property!

The most impressive part was that in the outer ring of Tianjing Mountain, there was a small unpolluted lake as there were no manufacturing factories in the area. The water in the small lake could be described as natural mineral water!

This was going against the heavens!

At this moment, the look in Mu Zixiao’s eyes when he looked at Hong Dali had turned from admiring to terrified.

That was too scary!

If these were to turn reality, Hong Dali’s great luck and foresight could be described as going against the heavens!

The more he analyzed, the more Mu Zixiao became afraid. And the more he became afraid, the more he wanted to clearly understand what was happening. Thus, he carefully asked, “Dali, since I have nothing to do tomorrow, do you mind if I follow you all to the film site? I’m interested in films and movies too.”

“Oh, if it’s like that…” Hong Dali twitched his nose. “Alright, since I feel that your bones are special, and your talent is good, why not be one of the actors?”

Mu Zixiao: “…”

“Okay, let’s go,” While walking out, Hong Dali muttered to Tang Muxin, “Didn’t I say before, we will turn Fengyuan Lake into Marshes of Mount Liang. As to the outer ring of Tianjing Mountain… I have not thought about it yet!”

Mu Zixiao: “…”
