Xia Ruofei didn't know whether to laugh or cry. He said, "Brother Tang, don't be a busybody! I don't know how to act! Besides, I'm not interested! "
Tang Yitian said with a smile, "This is a good opportunity to be famous! Think about it! After this incident, you'll be a well-known hero in Australia. If you personally act in a movie based on this incident, it'll be a great story! "
Without waiting for Xia Ruofei to speak, Tang Yitian said, "Acting is actually very simple! Jennifer can teach you! I'll ask the management company to give you a crash training … "
"Stop! Stop! " Xia Ruofei quickly said, "Brother Tang, I'm not interested at all. Don't mention this again!"
Tang Yitian was still a little regretful and muttered, "What a good opportunity! Why don't you want to … "
Tony couldn't understand the Chinese they were speaking, and he was still thinking about the feasibility of adapting the movie. What he didn't know was that his hope of inviting Xia Ruofei to play the lead role was basically in vain.
But in any case, the adaptation of this story into a movie was very good. The theme itself was very attractive, and it was based on a true incident, so it would naturally attract the audience.
It was already noon when the press conference ended, so Qantas naturally arranged a sumptuous lunch to entertain Xia Ruofei and his team.
In addition to Tony and several other executives of Qantas, the flight attendant Gu Li and the air marshal also attended the luncheon.
The luncheon was held in a hotel near the Qantas headquarters. Tony and other Qantas executives were very enthusiastic to Xia Ruofei and his team. Everyone toasted each other, and the atmosphere of the luncheon was very harmonious.
After the meal, Tony personally sent Xia Ruofei to the car.
As for the specific matters such as the bonus payment, the staff would naturally contact Xia Ruofei in a few days. There was no need for an executive like Tony to personally intervene.
While Xia Ruofei attended the press conference, Jennifer continued to tour Sydney with Tang Haoran and Feng Jing. When Xia Ruofei and his team returned to the manor villa, Feng Jing and the other two had not yet returned.
As for Xu Ziyuan, he had already left this morning. His home was also in Sydney, but he stayed at Tang Yitian's house to accompany Li Yifu. But now, looking at Li Yifu's posture, it seemed that he was going to stay for a long time, so Xu Ziyuan naturally couldn't accompany him all the time.
Xia Ruofei had nothing to do in the afternoon, so he simply guided Li Yifu's cultivation.
The "Guiyuan Scripture" that Li Yifu cultivated was originally derived from the "Guiyuan Scripture", and the "Guiyuan Scripture" was a cultivation method recorded in the "Human" character jade talisman, which meant that it was directly passed on to Xia Ruofei's mind. Although he didn't cultivate it, his understanding of this cultivation method was very thorough, so it was naturally more than enough to guide Li Yifu.
Moreover, the cultivation method that Li Yifu cultivated was incomplete, but Xia Ruofei's mind was the complete cultivation method, so his casual corrections and guidance could make Li Yifu feel as if he had obtained a treasure.
After a little test according to Xia Ruofei's instructions, Li Yifu immediately felt that the circulation of his qi seemed to be much smoother. He was naturally ecstatic about this, and was even more grateful to Xia Ruofei.
After a few days of getting along, Xia Ruofei also felt that Li Yifu truly revered him from the bottom of his heart. Even if he was only a young man in his twenties, Li Yifu still treated him as an elder from the bottom of his heart.
In addition, Xia Ruofei's intuition about Li Yifu was also not bad. He didn't look like an evil person, so he also intentionally or unintentionally passed on the contents of the "Guiyuan Scripture" to Li Yifu bit by bit through this kind of guidance.
Of course, Xia Ruofei didn't teach the entire cultivation method to Li Yifu at once. Through this kind of intentional or unintentional guidance, even Li Yifu himself didn't notice it. He just felt that according to Xia Ruofei's guidance, his cultivation was smoother and smoother.
After a few words of guidance, Xia Ruofei thought for a while and said, "Yifu, I seem to remember seeing the" Guiyuan Scripture "before …"
Hearing this, Li Yifu couldn't help but tremble. He looked at Xia Ruofei with anticipation in his heart, but he didn't dare to say anything.
Xia Ruofei smiled and said, "You don't have to be nervous. When I go back this time, I will look through the relics of the sect. If I can find the" Guiyuan Scripture ", I will definitely pass it on to you. After all, you have been cultivating this cultivation method for three generations …"
Li Yifu said with tears in his old eyes, "Uncle-Master, I don't dare to hope that I can still cultivate the real" Guiyuan Scripture ". After all, I am already old and weak, and there is no hope for me on the path of cultivation. But if I can take a look at the" Guiyuan Scripture "in my lifetime, then when I meet my old father and Uncle-Master in the afterlife, I can hold my head high …"
Xia Ruofei frowned slightly and said, "Although you have wasted too much time before, it doesn't mean that there is no hope. Didn't your father live for more than 120 years? If you break through to the sixth level of Qi Refinement before the age of 100, then you still have a chance to go further! If you succeed in building your foundation, your lifespan will be greatly increased. How can you be discouraged? "
Li Yifu was not yet 90 years old. In Xia Ruofei's opinion, breaking through two levels of cultivation in a dozen years was a very easy thing to do.
Li Yifu smiled bitterly and said, "Uncle-Master, I am not very talented. It is already Uncle-Master's grace to be able to break through to the fourth level of Qi Refinement. As for the sixth level of Qi Refinement … I don't dare to hope …"
Xia Ruofei then realized that from Li Yifu's point of view, breaking through two levels in a short dozen years was really a very hopeless thing.
After all, the cultivation environment was so bad now, and he was almost 90 years old. Even if he was a cultivator, this entry-level cultivation was simply unable to prevent the aging of his body.
Xia Ruofei's judgment was under the premise that he had the help of spirit crystals and the entire "Guiyuan Scripture". These were all things that Li Yifu did not know at all.
Thinking of this, Xia Ruofei said seriously, "Yifu, the path of cultivation is against the heavens. Even if tomorrow is the end of your life, you can't lose your unyielding will! Otherwise, you might as well not cultivate and just start eating and waiting for death! "
Li Yifu felt as if he had been hit in the head and quickly said, "Uncle-Master, I know I was wrong! Please don't worry, Uncle-Master, I will definitely cultivate diligently! On the path of cultivation, even if I can't beat time in the end, at least I can die without regrets! "
Xia Ruofei nodded with satisfaction and said, "It's good that you can think like that! Yifu, if you have nothing to do in two days, you can go back to America first! If I find the "Guiyuan Scripture", I will contact you immediately! "
Xia Ruofei didn't want to give the "Guiyuan Scripture" to Li Yifu now.
He was very clear about the destructive power of a cultivator to the secular world, so now was a period of observation for Li Yifu. If Li Yifu could pass his inspection, Xia Ruofei wouldn't be stingy with precious cultivation resources like spirit crystals, let alone the "Guiyuan Scripture".
After all, Li Yifu and he had a relationship, and he now had more than a hundred spirit crystals, which couldn't be used up at this stage.
Although Li Yifu wanted to stay by Xia Ruofei's side, he didn't dare to disobey the orders of the elders in the sect. He could only bow his head and say, "Yes, Master!"
…
The content of the press conference was published in the newspapers the next day.
Although the major media reported from different angles, Xia Ruofei was a key figure that couldn't be ignored. Basically, every media spent a lot of time on Xia Ruofei.
"The Superhero from the Eastern World!"
"He saved Qantas alone!"
"He created a miracle in the history of world aviation!"
…
In order to attract attention, the media used all kinds of exaggerated titles, and basically, they were accompanied by a large photo of Xia Ruofei at the press conference. The article also had a very high evaluation of Xia Ruofei, and Xia Ruofei had become a popular figure.
At the same time, some media also reported from other angles.
For example, the report from the Sydney Morning Herald was called "Xia Makes Us Know Huaxia Again", which was very typical.
This was a report similar to a reporter's notebook. The reporter of the Sydney Morning Herald wrote this report based on his own intuition about Xia Ruofei.
In the article, Xia Ruofei was described as humble, polite, and humorous. He could also speak fluent English, which was very different from the stereotypical image of Huaxia people.
At the end of the article, the reporter wrote, "More and more Huaxia people are appearing all over the world, and some people are still looking at them with the eyes of a hundred years ago. In fact, most of the new Huaxia people are just like Xia Ruofei. They are hardworking, simple, and polite. And Huaxia's development speed is beyond our imagination. I once went to the capital of Huaxia two years ago, and it is a modern metropolis that is more advanced than Sydney … "
There were several similar reports, and some other television media also focused on the clips of Xia Ruofei answering questions. For a time, Xia Ruofei, a Huaxia person, attracted countless fans in Australia, and set off a whirlwind of Huaxia.
The Chinese Australians were also proud. Originally, because of political reasons, Australia was somewhat xenophobic, and the Chinese Australians also huddled together for warmth. But now, it seemed that the Australian locals' attitude towards them had become much more friendly.
When the Chinese Australians walked on the streets, they would even meet the local whites who gave them a thumbs up.
Guo Xiaoxiao was an Australian Chinese. After she graduated from university, she came to Australia to study for a master's degree. After she finished her studies, she did not choose to return to China. Instead, she joined a Fortune 500 company in Australia to work. First, she obtained permanent residency, then she passed the exam and successfully obtained Australian citizenship.
Although Guo Xiaoxiao's career in the company was doing well, and she later met her husband, who was also a Chinese student. Their salary was considered middle-class in Australia, and they also had their own property in Sydney. It could be said that they did not have to worry about food and clothing, and they could even travel during the holidays. However, mentally, she still did not feel a sense of belonging to Australia.
This feeling of alienation mainly stemmed from the intentional or unintentional discrimination against Chinese in Australia.
In the past few days, after the news about the forced landing of the Qantas flight came out, Guo Xiaoxiao saw that the hero who turned the tide was her compatriot, so she paid more attention to the news.
This time, after the media focused on Xia Ruofei, Guo Xiaoxiao clearly felt the difference. In the company, the director, who used to be arrogant, was much more pleasant to her.
The director also took the initiative to talk to her about Xia Ruofei and said, "Your compatriot is a great hero!"
Guo Xiaoxiao felt very excited. For the first time in a foreign country, she felt a strong sense of pride because of her motherland and her compatriot.
Although Guo Xiaoxiao had settled down in Australia, she was still accustomed to the domestic online world, such as Tianya, these forums, new media platforms such as Sina Weibo, and even the emerging short video platforms such as TikTok and Kuaishou, were all places she often visited.
After she got home from work, she excitedly collected today's major media reports about Xia Ruofei, as well as the videos about Xia Ruofei on TV programs, and then uploaded them to Tianya Forum.
Guo Xiaoxiao's Tianya Forum account was also a little famous, mainly because she often posted some travel posts. One of the posts about her, her husband, and her three-year-old son renting a car and driving across Australia made the headlines of Tianya Forum.
Guo Xiaoxiao carefully took screenshots of the media reports about Xia Ruofei and the netizens' comments about Huaxia people. She also carefully highlighted the key points, translated them into Chinese, and attached them below. Then she uploaded the pictures.
As for those videos, Guo Xiaoxiao patiently added Chinese subtitles.
Her post suddenly became popular in China.
For well-known reasons, it was more troublesome for domestic netizens to see the content of foreign websites.
However, it was very convenient for Guo Xiaoxiao to go to domestic websites in Australia.
For most of the domestic netizens, the content she uploaded was the first time they saw it.
Even if some people occasionally climbed over the wall and saw it, it was impossible for it to be as systematic as Guo Xiaoxiao's.
Moreover, the post was full of foreigners praising Xia Ruofei and Huaxia people. The domestic netizens were all excited.
It was okay to praise yourself, but when others praised you, it was really good.
Over the years, the western world had often demonized Huaxia. No matter what Huaxia did, there would always be a bunch of western media outlets criticizing it.
However, this time, it was completely the opposite. The Australian media uniformly praised Huaxia people, and many media outlets reflected on their arrogance and prejudice against Huaxia people.
This made the domestic netizens feel as if they had eaten iced sour plum soup in the summer.
Xia Ruofei was already very popular on the domestic Internet, and now Guo Xiaoxiao's post added fuel to the fire.
Soon, these screenshots were spontaneously shared by the domestic netizens.
Weibo, WeChat, Tieba, forums …
Reports about Xia Ruofei being "praised" in Australia could be seen everywhere, and Xia Ruofei's reputation in China reached a new high.
Some netizens even called Xia Ruofei a "national hero". If Xia Ruofei saw it himself, he would definitely feel ashamed. Although he felt that he did a good job, he was still far from being a national hero.
