Chapter 377 Escape intact
If I continue to pester him and the crew calls the police, I might not be able to get away with it.

"Okay! Then Boss Lin, please make an offer." The boy with glasses smiled. In order to maintain his momentum, he still puffed up his eyes and mouth, like an inflated toad.

"Yours is an entry-level Celestron AE85, which costs only a few hundred yuan." Lin Chen said with a smile, "I'll give you two thousand yuan, and you can buy an advanced machine. I recommend the Boguan 1389 machine, which can allow you to see the craters on the moon clearly. What do you think?"

Lin Chen's words were very accurate. The entry-level camera of Xiao Yanjing could only see the general outline of the moon, which was not much better than the naked eye.

A high-end SLR camera can achieve this effect. However, a high-end astronomical telescope cannot observe close-up scenes.

"Deal!" said the man with glasses, extending his hand to Lin Chen.

Lin Chen shook hands with him, transferred the money with a smile, and then asked the security guard to take the astronomical telescope away, saying that it would be given as a benefit to the actors.

This farce ended like this. Lin Chen thought: The RMB is indeed powerful. If it doesn't work, then add a little more.

He strolled leisurely in the academy, recalling that before the system was bound, this place was still a forbidden place for him and was often requisitioned by companies and governments to hold various activities.

The interior of the academy is tall and has been decorated to look like a marquis's mansion. Actors in ancient costumes shuttle between the scenes or sit quietly waiting for their parts to come.

For a moment, Lin Chen seemed to have traveled through time and space, but this feeling soon disappeared.

He paced to the backyard and saw Fang Lan waving at him, so he walked over with a smile.

"Are you bored again?" Fang Lan teased.

"Don't be so rude!" Lin Chen said as he gently pulled Xia Lan's ponytail, as if he was pulling a light cord switch. "We are also well-known figures in the group, so we should speak more elegantly!"

"Then Mr. Lin, you have to be more polite and stop being so frivolous!" Fang Lan fought back and pulled Lin Chen's earlobe, just like pulling a light cord.

The two smiled at each other, and the staff around them were also infected by their joyful atmosphere and started laughing too.

It was Lin Chen’s first time to watch a filming live and he found it very interesting. He watched quietly for a long time until the crew finished work.

"Boss Lin is treating us tonight. Let's all have dinner together." Fang Lan said with a smile. She didn't ask Lin Chen for his opinion. She just thought that since he was rich, he would definitely not refuse.

"Yes, there's a new big pot chicken restaurant next door. Let's go try it." Lin Chen replied casually, as if they had already discussed it beforehand.

Everyone cheered when they heard this, and the extras were especially excited because it meant they didn't have to eat boxed lunches anymore. The main actors didn't care, as they had their own chefs and hotels.

The staff began to pack up, and Deji, Fang Lan and Lin Chen talked about the recent turmoil.

"Will this affect the review and broadcast of our drama?" Fang Lan asked Deji worriedly.

"Don't worry." Deji waved his hand and smiled, "It has been approved when the project was established. As long as our content is good, the censors won't make things difficult for us. Their job is to bring good works to the audience. There won't be any problems with the broadcast either. I'm just an ordinary staff member. Most artists with stains go behind the scenes, and no one will deliberately make things difficult for them."

"Yes, if there is a real problem, I will solve it." Lin Chen smiled confidently, "I think as long as I take action, this little thing will not be a problem at all."

He has the ability to use his connections in the military, so a small film or TV series is nothing to him.

"Okay, I think the audience won't have any problem with your involvement being exposed." Fang Lan said with a smile, "Anyway, when I watch a drama, I never care whether the lead actor is a tainted artist. I watch the story, a complete life. And you're not an actor, just an investor, and you won't even appear in the opening credits. What's the big deal?"

Deji nodded in agreement, and the leadership group reached a consensus on the matter.

Afterwards, the group left Linhai Ancient Town, either by car or on foot, and headed to the big pot chicken restaurant next door.

Big Pot Chicken Restaurant is a two-story restaurant located just across the street from Linhai Ancient Town.

The lights are bright at this time, and the colorful lights are very charming.

The store is steaming hot, with both the popularity of the people and the steam from the pot.

The aroma of the big pot chicken whetted the appetite of many people, or maybe it was just time for dinner and they were naturally hungry.

Lin Chen asked the project manager to choose seats, and soon after everyone placed their orders, the food was served.

“Don’t let small talk take up our meal time. If all the dishes are served but no one picks up their chopsticks, then why are we eating? So, talk less and eat more! Do you understand?” Lin Chen imitated the tone of the imperial army in his last sentence, making everyone laugh.

"Please rest assured, we understand!" said the project manager with a smile.

Everyone laughed and nodded: "Understood!"

After Lin Chen sat down, he ate and chatted with Deji and Fang Lan.

After a while, everyone was full, their faces were flushed and they were a little drunk.

So I found a designated driver to take them back to their residence.

The night breeze was cool and pleasant, blowing in through the slightly opened car window and gently brushing the faces of the three people.

Lin Chen sat on the left, Fang Lan sat in the middle, and Deji sat on the right.

Therefore, the breeze blew on Lin Chen's face first, quickly blowing away his drunkenness and making him much more sober.

He sat up straight, holding his chin with one hand, looking at the lights and feasting outside the window.

For a moment, his eyes became blurred, and the lights and the night life turned into a vast expanse in his eyes, as if he was in a colorful fog.

After a moment, Lin Chen came back to his senses and the scene in front of him became clear again.

It was as if the whole world was a TV, and everything could change according to his wishes, as simple as pressing a remote control.

Fang Lan and Deji woke up soon, but the warm air in the car made them fall into a half-asleep state again.

Fang Lan even made some "grunting" sounds like a pig and slept soundly.

Lin Chen turned his head and gently brushed away a strand of hair on her nose, thinking that although women with long hair look good, it is sometimes troublesome. I must persuade her to keep short hair like me someday, how convenient it is. From the bustling city center to the villa area, the temperature dropped significantly. The villa area was very quiet, and even the barking of cats and dogs seemed particularly loud.

The car creaked to a stop. Lin Chen woke them up and went into the house together.

Fang Lan and Deji woke up refreshed. Fang Lan stretched and said with a smile: "A nap after drinking is really refreshing! Now I am full of energy again! I am ready to work hard all night!"

Deji also nodded and smiled: "Yes, I won't sleep either! I will fight with you!"

After saying this, the two of them clapped their hands, then imitated Song Dandan's classic move, pushing their elbows back, stretching their hands forward, bending their knees and shouting, "Oh Yeah!" Then they burst into laughter.

Lin Chen also smiled and waved his hand and said: "You two crazy girls, have fun by yourselves. I've been busy all day and I'm exhausted. I'm going to bed." After that, he went to wash up.

Deji and Fang Lan thought about it and it seemed that there was nothing to strive for. The film was with the project manager and the schedule for tomorrow was arranged. They had nothing else to do except staying up late to watch TV series or play games.

Just then the project manager called and said, "Mr. Fang, I need to discuss a small issue with tomorrow's personnel arrangements with you. Is it convenient for you now? If it is convenient, I will come to see you."

Fang Lan laughed so hard that the project manager on the other end of the phone was startled. "Come here quickly! Bring today's footage and those from the past few days! I want to edit the footage tonight!"

"A good leader is really dedicated!" The project manager said and rushed over with the things soon after.

So Deji and Fanglan stayed up all night.

The next day in the Northern Theater Command Headquarters, Liu Dingcang faced Fang Weihai with a smug smile on his face.

"You are really prescient! Lin Chen really accepted our quotation, and now the new prototype has been delivered!" Fang Wei said as he pushed the red paper box in front of Liu Dingcang and opened it. The red armor inside was flashing fluorescent light and looked very beautiful.

Liu Dingcang picked up the armor, touched it, and said with a smile: "This armor exudes a chill! Haha."

Fang Weihai also laughed.

"Have you tried it?" Liu Dingcang asked.

"We have tested it, and all indicators are exactly the same as the previous prototype!" Fang Weihai replied.

"This Lin Chen is so arbitrary in pricing! It seems that he will never miss any opportunity to make money from the country! He is such a money-grubber!" Liu Dingcang put down the prototype and continued to say to Fang Weihai, "Convey my order immediately, select high-quality soldiers to equip the prototype, and form an iron team with them as the core! Each soldier equipped with Iron Man armor will be equipped with ten soldiers equipped with conventional weapons to form a team! Once the twelve teams are formed, training will begin immediately!"

"Yes!" Fang Weihai nodded in response.

"Then start purchasing in bulk from Lin Chen next month, ten machines per month, and form ten teams! Start preparing for staffing now!" Liu Dingcang continued to command, as if a general was inspecting his troops.

"Okay." Fang Weihai nodded and kept his words in mind, then continued, "Our war zone's annual budget is 300 billion. So the money spent on the Iron Man Armor Team is only 12 million, which is not much. I think we can take bigger steps."

"Well, but we can't rush into putting new weapons into use, otherwise it'll be like eating too fast and not being able to digest it. Let's put it this way, you form these teams first, and then purchase the goods as I said next month, and then form new teams. If everything goes well, we'll add ten machines every month." Liu Dingcang continued with a smile.

"Okay!" Fang Weihai nodded in response.

After leaving the war zone, Fang Weihai immediately called Lin Chen to tell him that the superiors had agreed and asked him to provide ten machines next month.

"Please rest assured, Chief!" Lin Chen said with a high-spirited smile, "As long as the funds are in place, there will be absolutely no problem on my side!"

"You are really obsessed with money!" Fang Weihai said with a smile, "The funds will be transferred soon, so start preparing now!"

With a "ding dong" sound from the phone, one million yuan of funds arrived.

He is now numb to money, after all, there are tens of billions of dollars in his account, but he rarely moves them. He has a hunch that he can't use up all this wealth in his life, and eventually all this money will return to the sea of ​​national defense construction like water.

Despite this, he felt that he had suffered no loss. After all, as a Chinese, he naturally hoped that his country would become stronger, and he could be considered to have made a contribution to the country.

Making ten Iron Man armors was just a piece of cake for him, so Lin Chen was not in a hurry to start. He put away his phone and continued to devote himself to the filming of the crew.

Fang Lan and Deji stayed up all night but did not look tired at all. Instead, they were full of energy and enthusiastically shuttled between the various shooting sites, directing the filming of each scene.

Yesterday's scenes have been edited, and once this morning's scenes are finished, they will leave for Hengdian in the afternoon to shoot the palace scenes. The project manager has already booked flights for the entire crew and has contacted Hengdian. The local costume, makeup, and props teams will fully cooperate.

The morning scenes were relatively relaxed, mainly depicting the daily life of the Marquis's Mansion. Fang Lan sent the clips edited last night to Lin Chen, who sat on a chair nearby and watched carefully.

In the play, after the heroine traveled through time, she found Wang Mang putting on makeup in front of a mirror, and the mirror reflected a hideous devil who was talking to Wang Mang. The heroine turned around and looked at Wang Mang, only to find that he had turned into a handsome young man. This strong contrast, coupled with the devil's vicissitudes and strange voice, shocked Lin Chen.

"Good shot!" Lin Chen nodded and praised.

"Click! Okay, we passed! Don't rush to eat lunch, eat on the plane. Hurry up and pack up and get ready to board!" Fang Lan shouted with a smile.

Lin Chen walked behind Fang Lan and joked, "You said 'boarding the plane' as if you were going to ascend the throne!"

"You only know how to play word games!" Fang Lan laughed and punched him. "Is everything going on at the repair shop? I saw you answered the phone just now."

"Oh, it's okay." Lin Chen waved his hand, "Another small business came in, but there's no rush to deal with it."

"Okay, let's get ready to board the plane." Fang Lan said with a smile.

Soon, a Tesla sedan took the lead, followed by a long convoy, driving towards the airport in a mighty manner, like a bride-welcoming procession.

"We should put some balloons on the car to create a wedding atmosphere." Deji said with a smile.

The three of them looked at each other and smiled.

The afternoon sun was warm and comfortable, shining through the car window and making people feel very comfortable. If it weren't for the occasional cool breeze that brought a hint of chill, one would really think it was summer.

There were few vehicles on the highway, with only the occasional bird flying by, chasing them like fans.

"By the way, I just saw a message that those mini girls are really going to set up 'Linfen'! They are looking for the studio's contact information and hope that the studio can cooperate." Fang Lan said to Lin Chen who was driving.
