Luckily, there were so many things going on in the black street every day. Even if someone discovered this abnormality, they would not think that it was a rebirth. They would just assume that someone had done something.
Fang Zhao put away the videos and pulled up all of Curly Hair's pre-match and post-match test reports.
The post-match tests were not very useful. Because there was a break after the competition, Fang Zhao could not tell how Curly Hair's body was different from a normal dog's after intense exercise. But one thing he could tell was that Curly Hair was very healthy. Other dogs would get diarrhea or experience discomfort from eating random food, but Curly Hair had no such reactions.
Wu Yi had laughed and told Fang Zhao that after Curly Hair had learned how to herd sheep in Muzhou, his physique had become stronger and more robust. Although he was small in size, one could clearly see the difference in this dog when he ran.
"He is a natural king of sheep herding!" Wu Yi had said after the Eastern region finals.
But now, Fang Zhao could confirm that it wasn't just sheep herding. Perhaps Curly Hair could learn other things very quickly. His stamina had already far surpassed that of other dogs, and Fang Zhao couldn't say for sure whether he would continue to improve in the future.
And Fang Zhao's own abnormalities were synchronized with Curly Hair's. It was just that Fang Zhao had concealed it well, so others had not noticed.
In the following period, Fang Zhao was still busy in the company. As the head of a department, he had many things to do. Fang Zhao had spoken to Duan Qianji before. He could not keep doing this. Back then, he had taken over the virtual projects department because there had been no one to manage it. Now that the department had risen, many people were more professional than Fang Zhao and could handle things better, so there was no need for Fang Zhao to continue doing those things. After his rebirth, he just wanted to enjoy life in the New Era as he liked and not be buried in all sorts of forms, reports, and contracts.
But Duan Qianji had always been worried that after Fang Zhao was no longer the department manager, the virtual projects department would return to its original state, so she had not agreed. But as September approached, Fang Zhao did not want to drag it out any longer.
He went to look for Duan Qianji again, this time with a more unyielding attitude.
Duan Qianji was also having a headache. She was really scared of the repeated failures in the past. It was rare for Silver Wing's virtual projects department to rise, and she wanted Fang Zhao to continue staying in the department, but Fang Zhao's specialty was composing, not handling all sorts of contracts and documents every day.
The reason Fang Zhao gave for his application also made Duan Qianji feel helpless. "I have to go out from time to time to gather materials. Fiery Bird's game consoles will arrive in September. I will adapt to the new game consoles in September and start gaming in October. My schedule is pretty full."
This was the first time Duan Qianji had met someone who brazenly used the excuse of "playing games" to apply for a transfer. If someone else had said, "I quit, I want to play games," she would have kicked them out of the Silver Wing building long ago.
But it just so happened that this person was Fang Zhao, and he had the right to fight for free composing time. And after Fang Zhao had signed a contract with the company, he had indeed composed some high-quality music. The credit was there for everyone to see, and it was a win-win situation for everyone. Duan Qianji had no way of rebutting this. To put it mildly, playing games was like applying for personal leisure time and taking long vacations. This was indeed a reasonable application that matched Fang Zhao's profession.
Using salary to threaten him?
This was really of no use to Fang Zhao. He did not lack money at all. Although Duan Qianji had not been to Muzhou, she had heard from Zuo Yu that Fang Zhao had made a killing betting on sheep-herding competitions in Muzhou. Zuo Yu had not said exactly how much, but from Zuo Yu's expression, Duan Qianji knew that even if Fang Zhao did not work and played games for a few years, he would still be able to enjoy a high-quality lifestyle.
"What a headache!" The more Duan Qianji thought about it, the more her head hurt.
"How about this, you take on the temporary position of department manager, and I will arrange for a deputy manager to handle the day-to-day affairs of the department. You can compose in peace," Duan Qianji said. She had not decided what position Fang Zhao would be transferred to, but she definitely would not let Fang Zhao leave the virtual projects department!
Fang Zhao thought about it. "That's fine."
The person Duan Qianji had assigned to the virtual projects department as the temporary deputy manager was her secretary, Zhu Zhen. Previously, Zhu Zhen had been in charge of contacting Fang Zhao, so she had a good understanding of the virtual projects department's situation. Now that Duan Qianji was the one making the final decisions for the virtual projects department and the situation had already been opened up by Fang Zhao, all Zhu Zhen had to do was follow orders, and the pressure was not that great.
Zu Wen and the others did not feel much about the addition of a temporary leader. The boss of the department was still Fang Zhao, and they were still at ease. If they really received unfair treatment, they could still continue hugging Fang Zhao's thigh. They just treated it as if Polar Light had an additional manager.
After the various affairs of the department were distributed, other than a few major decisions, there was no need to disturb Fang Zhao.
Fang Zhao went to Muzhou again to observe Curly Hair's daily training and the subsequent rounds of the finals.
As the rounds progressed, the requirements for the other shepherd dogs on the team became higher. However, other than Curly Hair, Dongshan Farm's other dogs were still lacking in terms of ability. Thus, after consecutively taking first place, Dongshan Farm only managed to place second in the third round of the finals and third in the fourth round.
Relying on Curly Hair alone? Fang Zhao did not know if Curly Hair would have that ability in the future, but the current Curly Hair was unable to completely dominate the entire field by himself. He had to coordinate with the other dogs. If their coordination was not good and they could not keep up with the pace, they might be overtaken by the teams behind them.
On the leaderboard, after four rounds, Dongshan Farm's points were still the highest and they still held first place. However, Wu Yi and Su Hou were very worried. The later rounds were even more complicated, and their confidence was starting to waver.
Luckily, in the fifth round, because of Curly Hair's outstanding performance, Dongshan Farm once again took first place with a slight advantage. It was almost as if one dog was driving the entire field. His speed was even faster and he even helped the other dogs share the load. His performance was very dazzling. Anyone who had a slight understanding of sheep-herding could see that the core of this team, the main driving force, was still that little curly-haired dog. And in the fifth round, Curly Hair's value had already risen to 75 million.
In the later rounds, Dongshan Farm did not win first place in every round, but he would not be squeezed out of the top three. His total points were still ahead of second and third place.
There were no fixed competition days for the ten rounds of the finals. Usually, it would be held once every five to seven days. If the weather was not suitable for the competition, it would be brought forward or delayed. Muzhou revered nature, so many times they felt that the changes in the weather were also a kind of test. They would adapt to the natural weather and make changes to the competition schedule.
By the time the last round of the ten rounds ended, it was already August. Dongshan Farm occupied first place on the overall leaderboard. Although there were a few times when they were tied for first place and were almost overtaken, they still managed to persevere until the end.
That day, the entire Muzhou's focus was on Curly Hair. The lead dog of the champion team, the undisputed most valuable dog. His value had reached a new high on the sheep-herding competition's official homepage — 100 million!
A dog from outside Muzhou, a dog that looked like a pet dog, had won the title of "Most Valuable Competition Dog" in this year's Muzhou finals!
In Muzhou, there was really someone who had jumped out and vowed to buy that curly-haired dog. Even though its value had already risen to the point that many people were retreating, there were still many rich people who were willing to bid.
Other than Muzhou's local rich people, in Leizhou, Zaro's manager pointed at Zaro, who was on the phone with someone, with trembling hands. He gritted his teeth and said to the others, "Watch him! Don't let him buy a dog! "
News of a non-Muzhou native dog worth over 100 million spread to every continent, especially Yanzhou. At this time, Silver Wing leeched off the hype. Under their control, every time that dog was mentioned, it was "Yanzhou Silver Wing virtual projects department manager's dog." With this label, "Silver Wing Yanzhou" also had a sense of existence in the hearts of netizens from every continent.
Wu Yi was about to go crazy with joy. Su Hou, the farm owner, was also bombarded with all sorts of interviews. As for Curly Hair, after the finals, he received his medal, and after an official interview, he was brought back to Yanzhou by Fang Zhao.
Although there were many news mentions in Yanzhou, the people of Yanzhou viewed it purely as a way to adjust their mood and not as crazy as the people of Muzhou.
Just as he returned to Yanzhou, Fang Zhao received a call from Duan Qianji.
"Back?" Duan Qianji asked.
"Back."
"Did you bring Curly Hair back? Do you want me to send more people over? "Duan Qianji asked.
"No need, he's already home."
"That's good." Duan Qianji heaved a sigh of relief. She had really been worried that the bunch of crazy dogs in Muzhou would force Curly Hair to stay in Muzhou.
"Today, quite a few directors personally came to look for me, saying that they would like to invite that curly-haired dog of yours, whose net worth has been hyped to 100 million, to act in a movie. They are all rather famous directors, so the production quality will definitely be higher. It's worth considering. Other than that, there are also advertising companies... "
Duan Qianji had never imagined that her own company would actually produce a dog with a net worth of over 100 million! Many celebrities had not reached such heights, yet that dog had been brought to Muzhou by Fang Zhao in half a year, and he had accomplished it.
"I have already sent you the information. Take a look yourself. That is your own dog, and it belongs to you. The decision is yours," Duan Qianji said. Regarding the matter of Curly Hair, the company really could not make a decision. However, if Fang Zhao was willing, they could still work together.
"I will consider it," Fang Zhao said.
Actually, he hoped that this matter would cool down as soon as possible, but completely not accepting any advertisements and completely hiding it was also impossible. That would instead increase people's curiosity and cause all sorts of suspicions. He would accept films and advertisements, but it would not be much.
After Duan Qianji ended the call, Fang Zhao received another message from Zu Wen.
"Boss, when are you bringing Curly Hair to the company? We renovated a luxurious mansion together and gave it to him! "
There were also messages from other people in the department, meaning to keep an eye on Curly Hair and not let him be stolen. 100 million!
Fang Zhao switched off the communication device on his wristband, sent Zuo Yu away, and closed the doors and windows.
"Come here," Fang Zhao said to Curly Hair, who was running around the house.
After leaving the house for so long, Curly Hair was still very excited when he returned. He ran a few laps as if patrolling his territory. When he heard Fang Zhao call him, he hurriedly went over and squatted down. However, after meeting Fang Zhao's gaze, he felt a little uneasy and tentatively wagged his tail to curry favor.
"Don't pretend in front of me. I know you can understand me. In the past, perhaps you could only understand part of it, but now... "Fang Zhao walked over to Curly Hair and stared at him." I believe you can understand everything. "
Curly Hair, who was squatting there, became even more uneasy. He shrunk his head as if he had done something wrong, and the frequency of his tail wagging decreased. He cautiously raised his head and looked at Fang Zhao.
"You should be aware that you are different from other dogs. No matter what changes have happened to your body, for our safety, don't behave too differently from others in the future. Of course, don't be too foolish either. Just maintain your current level. We're on the same boat, understand? "
