In the end, Chen Zhao didn't attend the banquet.
It was impossible for Shao Jiaqiu to not have any complaints about Chen Zhao.
She wasn't a broad-minded woman to begin with.
It wouldn't be an exaggeration to call her narrow-minded.
However, she knew very well.
Chen Zhao could crush her in all aspects.
So, she didn't reveal her thoughts at all.
"Minister Zhou, I want to know more about cultivators. Can you tell me?"
"What do you want to know specifically?"
"It's mainly about cultivation."
Actually, Shao Jiaqiu had already learned a lot about the spiritual world from Lei Mu.
Lei Mu was the name she'd given to the Flood Dragon.
Because the Flood Dragon was lightning-wood.
So, she just called it this name.
The Flood Dragon didn't object either.
However, she didn't get much information from Lei Mu.
She even had a lot of misconceptions.
After all, Lei Mu wasn't human.
And he'd been sealed for decades.
He didn't know much about the spiritual world either.
What useful information could he give Shao Jiaqiu?
"Regarding cultivation, our Special Intelligence Department has quite a few."
"What level can you reach?"
"Now that Miss Shao has a Flood Dragon as a spiritual pet and you two are connected, you're blessed. It won't be hard for you to reach the level of a Flood Dragon."
"Then what level is my Flood Dragon Thunder Wood in the spiritual world?"
"Top level," Zhou Yiren said. "Not just in the country, but in the entire world."
"Oh, Lei Mu is top level? But I think he's much weaker than Mr. Chen. "
"You compare to Mr. Chen? Then there's no way. "
"Since Lei Mu is top level, why can't we compare?"
"The Flood Dragon is at the top, but Mr. Chen is at the top. There aren't many in the world who can compete with him, and he's also one of the best among the best. I don't think there are more than three who can match him, and none can defeat him."
"Then … how can Lei Mu surpass him?"
"If you transform into a dragon, you can barely be considered one of the best."
"Then how?"
"Ha … It's not that easy. If you cultivate for five hundred years and don't die to Heaven's Test, you can transform."
"Five hundred years? Department Head Zhou must be joking with me. "
"Of all the living beings in the world, apart from humans who can reach the pinnacle with a lifespan of a hundred years, no matter how intelligent the other creatures are, it is difficult for them to reach the pinnacle within a hundred years."
"But isn't a dragon a divine beast?"
"Dragons are divine beasts, but they are somewhat different from what you think. There are two types of dragons. The divine beasts born from heaven and earth are born with the ability to penetrate the heavens and the earth. They can split into Qi and travel between the mountains and rivers. They can also condense into a human form and are called divine dragons." Zhou Yiren paused again and said, "There's another kind, like the True Dragon evolved from your spiritual pet, the Flood Dragon. If it can transform into a dragon, it will naturally have extraordinary strength, but it's still a thousand miles away from the Divine Dragon. It's already very commendable to be ranked at the top. If it wants to go one step further, it will require another thousand years of cultivation."
"In other words, the Thunder Wood will never evolve again in my lifetime?"
"There are no absolutes in this world, but it's not completely impossible. Now that the Spiritual Tide has arrived, there are many strange phenomena in the world, and there are many ancient treasures. If there's a chance, it's not impossible to transform into a dragon in one's lifetime."
"But the chances are slim."
"If it's so easy to reach the top, there won't only be a few in the world."
"Mr. Chen is probably not older than me, right?
How did he cultivate? "
"Everyone is different.
Why don't you think about it?
How can someone become Father Ma?
And some people are still struggling to feed themselves. "
Everyone understood the logic, but Shao Jiaqiu was still unwilling to accept it.
"Miss Shao, you should be more open-minded about some things.
If one day, can you reach Mr. Chen's level?
Even the national level might give you some face.
And before that?
You should recognize reality. "
Zhou Yiren was also an understanding person.
Of course he could tell.
Shao Jiaqiu had a lot of complaints about him.
He didn't talk about right or wrong or grievances.
Some rights and wrongs were determined based on strength.
Some grievances only existed because one was powerless.
"Miss Shao?
Let's talk about the development plan of the Special Intelligence Department. After all, you're a member now.
So, you need to make your own contribution. "
"Of course, I'll do my best to cooperate with the Special Intelligence Department's publicity work.
Also, it's within the Special Intelligence Department's capabilities.
I also hope that the Special Intelligence Department can support my acting career. "
"Is that for sure?
It's a win-win situation. "
…
Chen Zhao was as free as usual these two days.
Every day, he played and walked around.
"Boss?
The company has moved to a new office building. Do you want to come and take a look? "
"Not anymore?
I have something to do today. "
Yes, Chen Zhao had something to do. He had to go to an online celebrity shop.
In the past few days, Chen Zhao had gone to quite a few online celebrity shops.
It wasn't that the food was really delicious. He just wanted something new.
If he really wanted delicious food, Chen Zhao would hire a national banquet chef.
He would make a Manchu Han Imperial Feast for himself every day.
"Okay." Zhang Ting was a bit disappointed.
Chen Zhao felt that he had only gone to the company once in the half a month he had been back.
It was indeed a bit ridiculous.
"Then go. You're still working, right?"
"Are you coming now?"
"Yes, I'll go now. Otherwise, I'll be lonely after everyone gets off work."
The animation company's new location was better than the previous office building.
The interior was also better.
This was all because they had enough money.
Wang He's studio was also nearby.
The monthly rent here was 800,000 yuan.
It was really expensive, but the location was really good.
If not for the fact that the company didn't want to sell the building.
Chen Zhao wanted to buy the entire building.
When Chen Zhao arrived at the company, Zhang Ting even called all the higher-ups to the door to welcome him.
Then Zhang Ting took Chen Zhao to all the departments in the company.
Actually, besides visiting the new location, Zhang Ting called Chen Zhao over.
At the same time, she also wanted to show Chen Zhao their current results.
Right now, they had already made a few minutes of unedited footage.
It was mainly for Chen Zhao to see the effect.
Chen Zhao actually watched cartoons too.
But he really wasn't a professional.
His initial investment wasn't some grand and lofty ideal.
After watching the footage for a few minutes, Chen Zhao kept praising it.
The characters were exquisite, the camera was beautiful, and the storyboard was accurate. Basically, these were the words.
As for whether it was good or not, that was for the professionals to decide.
Usually, after an animation project started, they would first make the climax of the script and then use it to get investors. For example, the famous Nezha and the Great Sage both used this method.
Their project was the same. What Chen Zhao saw was the climax of the script.
"Boss, stop praising it. As the audience, do you think there's anything that can be improved?"
