To be honest, from Fangzheng's point of view, rather than a date between a couple, it was more like a big brother bringing his little sister out to play. After arriving on the streets, Ilya once again displayed her innocent, lively, and adorable nature. Fangzheng accompanied her as they strolled around Crossrail.
They fished in the harbor area, took a stroll in the Central Park, and enjoyed a delicious meal at the Dragon Restaurant on East Street. Then, the two of them enjoyed a magnificent play put on by the Rainbow Theatre Troupe in the entertainment hall of the old city. Well, compared to a movie, this kind of running and jumping play was not particularly interesting to Fangzheng, but to Ilya, it seemed to be very interesting. She enjoyed the whole performance with relish and was obviously very happy.
After the performance ended, Fangzheng brought Ilya backstage.
But just as he opened the door ….
"You still have the cheek to come here!!"
The blonde woman in front of him almost pounced over and grabbed Fangzheng's collar, shaking him left and right.
"How long are we going to stay here? It's been so long, why isn't your ghost tower finished yet!!!"
Facing Fangzheng, Ilya was exasperated. Back then, Fangzheng's Starlight Technology acquired the location of the Rainbow Theatre to build the Starlight Tower. At the same time, he also built a theatre in the old city as compensation. Initially, Ilya thought it would only take two to three years to complete the tower, but after so long, the Starlight Tower was still not finished?
Was he going to stay in this godforsaken place for the rest of his life?
"Ahhhhh!!"
Upon seeing this, Ilya was left speechless from shock. As for Fangzheng, all he did was shrug and pat the blonde dancer's hand.
"Alright, calm down. I know you have a lot of opinions about this, but I can guarantee that the Starlight Tower will be completed soon. But for you … .there's still a lot of work to be done. "
"… .work?"
"Of course. Before that … .why don't you give my little girl an autograph first?"
As he spoke, Fangzheng turned to the side and gave his little girl a look. The latter immediately walked over obediently.
"H-hello, nice to meet you. I'm Elias Phil von Ainzberen. Um … I really like your performance …"
"Aiya, little sister is so cute. You are also called Ilya?"
Looking at the cute and beautiful Illya, the blonde dancer's eyes lit up and she pounced on her.
"Hello, little cutie. My name is Ilya Pratier. We're both called Ilya. Isn't this fate? Autograph? No problem, okay? "
As she spoke, the blonde dancer took out a signature board and signed her name on it, before passing it to Ilya with a grin. Then, her expression changed and she glared at Fangzheng again.
"So, when is your tower going to be built?"
"Specifically speaking, it will still take one to two years."
"So long?"
"Looks like you're in a hurry?"
"Of course."
Upon hearing Fangzheng's question, the blonde dancer immediately grumbled.
"Although I can perform here, it's too troublesome. Besides, didn't you tell me there's something good? I've been waiting for it, but there's nothing!! "
"Fine, fine …."
Looking at the other party's grumbling, Fangzheng helplessly raised his hands in surrender. He remembered that during the Janis School Festival, Fangzheng had indeed promised her that there would be something good, but the poor blonde dancer still didn't believe him when she came back …. Well, no wonder she flipped out.
Coincidentally, he had already received the research progress report from Toricia. Hmm … .it's almost done.
"Since you can't wait any longer, then come with me. Gather all the members of the troupe. We're going to a good place."
"What for?"
"Didn't you say you've been waiting for a surprise from me? Come with me and you'll know. "
Although they were somewhat puzzled, the Rainbow Troupe still followed Fangzheng out of the theater. They crossed the street and arrived in front of another gigantic building not far away. From the outside, the building looked like a warehouse. There was nothing special on the outside, and it was impossible to tell what was inside. Fangzheng walked to the door and swiped his ID card. Soon, the door opened, and the group walked in.
"What is this place?"
Following Fangzheng through the door, the blonde dancer looked around in puzzlement. Most of the warehouse was empty. There was nothing except for a stage set placed in the middle of the wall. A group of people were currently surrounding the stage scenery doing something. Toricia was beside the group, staring intently at the report in front of her.
When she saw Fangzheng, Toricia hurriedly put down the report in her hand and came to Fangzheng's side.
"Ah, Mr. Fangzheng, you're here?"
"Yes. Is everything done here?"
"Almost. According to the R&D team, only the 'filter' system you mentioned isn't particularly complete yet …."
"That's okay. We can continue to adjust it when the time comes. Hmm … .get ready. Let them try it out."
"Understood."
Hearing Fangzheng's instructions, Toricia nodded, then quickly turned around and returned to the group of researchers. Fangzheng turned around and looked at the blonde dancer with a smile.
"Alright, you can go up now."
"What do you want me to do?"
"Go up and perform for a while."
Fangzheng pointed at the stage set to the side.
"Just treat it as an impromptu performance on the stage in the theater."
With that said, Fangzheng looked at Ilya.
"Do you want to go up and give it a try?"
"Huh? Me, me, me? "
Ilya was startled when she heard Fangzheng suddenly talking to her. She hurriedly shook her head.
"I, I, I can't …."
"Go up and do a third radio calisthenics or something. The people here don't know how to use this thing. You can just give them a demonstration."
While saying that, Fangzheng smiled and patted Ilya's head.
"Don't worry. Our Ilya is so cute. She'll still be cute no matter what."
"Hmm …. Okay then …."
Ilya hesitated for a moment, then nodded after hearing Fangzheng's words.
At the same time, the researchers got ready. The blonde dancer walked up to the stage. She took a deep breath and began her performance.
As a famous theater actress, the blonde dancer was quite outstanding in this aspect. She improvised a scene from the play 'Golden Sun' around the stage. It was a perfect ending.
Next, under everyone's gaze, Ilya walked up to the stage with a red face. Of course, she couldn't do it as well as the blonde dancer, but Fangzheng naturally had other ways.
"Hey, look over here, Ilya."
Fangzheng came to the side of the camera and waved at Ilya. The latter looked over subconsciously.
"Introduce yourself. What's your name?"
"My, my name is Ilya Phil von Ainzberen."
"Age?"
"Yes, that's … .a secret."
"When did you first experience it?"
"That … .was not long ago … .ahhhhhhh!! Master, what do you want me to say in front of so many people!!! "
Speaking till here, Ilya's face flushed red. She instantly jumped down from the stage and hid in the shadow of a corner.
"Hey, what the hell are you doing?"
At this moment, the blonde dancer also asked in puzzlement. Fangzheng chuckled.
"Follow me."
As he spoke, Fangzheng led the confused group to a wall inside the warehouse. On the wall hung a pitch-black stone slab that looked like an obsidian stone slab. It was similar to a landscape painting. Fangzheng made a gesture. Soon, a staff member came up and connected a few wires to the "stone slab", then opened it. The black stone slab flashed, and an unexpected scene appeared on it.
The surface of the originally black stone slab was now colorful, and in it, a blonde dancer was dancing. Her singing and voice could even be heard clearly.
Seeing this scene, the staff members of the Rainbow Troupe were all stunned.
"What, what's this?"
"A moving photo?"
"And the voice! It's exactly the same as Ilya's!!!"
"As you can see."
At this moment, Fangzheng also clapped his hands to attract everyone's attention.
"This is the latest product of Starlight Technology. It can take pictures of everything that's going on like a conductive camera and play it. But unlike the conductive camera, the images it releases can be moved, which means that we can use this method to spread art. "
"… … …"
Upon hearing Fangzheng's introduction, no one said a word. The Rainbow Troupe was one of the best troupes in the country. The people here were very sensitive to the arts. After recovering from the initial shock, they immediately realized how subversive this was to the performing arts!
"This is the task I'm giving the Rainbow Troupe."
Fangzheng patted the camera next to him.
"I want you to cooperate with the R&D team to shoot a song and dance movie."
"… Song and dance … …"
"… Movie … …?"
Hearing Fangzheng's request, everyone looked at each other.
Of course they were familiar with song and dance.
What was a movie?
"I'll give you the specific script later. What you need to do now is to learn how to use these devices and use them for filming … … I'm sure you've noticed, Ilya, that although your acting skills are great, the feeling you present on the screen is completely different."
"… … …"
Hearing Fangzheng's words, the blonde dancer nodded with a serious look. She had also noticed that when Fangzheng asked her to perform, she was also strict with her standards on stage. However, his performance on the screen looked ordinary, as if he didn't have any charm at all.
On the other hand, Illya's weird interview, although it was a failure, she kept staring at the screen, giving people the feeling that she was talking to the audience in front of the screen. Even when Illya ran away shyly at the end, the feeling that was transmitted from the screen was still that kind of cute and lovable feeling.
"Don't worry, leave it to me, Mr. Fangzheng!"
The blonde dancer clenched her fists tightly. As an actress, she was very interested in this new form of performance and couldn't wait to see it.
