By the time Yuan Zheng rushed over to the fan meet, it had already ended. The artists had already boarded their return vehicles and left. Yuan Zheng had no choice but to find Fang Zhao. It wasn't easy to get a chance to meet his idol. He couldn't miss this opportunity.
The schedule for the invited artists on their first day on Planet Yin was rather tight. Some of the older artists were already in low spirits and looked exhausted.
After returning from the fan meet, Fang Zhao went to fetch Curly Hair.
"Boss, is Curly Hair still not used to the environment here? Why do I see him drooling and panting? "Nanfeng was worried.
"He'll get used to it in two days," Fang Zhao replied.
Nanfeng pondered for a bit. "That's true. Planet Yin's environment does require some time to get used to. Even me, Zuo Yu, Yan Biao, and the others felt a little dizzy when we first arrived."
Nanfeng passed the dog food and pet supplies to Fang Zhao. "The staff at the reception desk told us to collect more after we're done."
Nanfeng didn't say much when he saw the other artists preparing to head back to rest. "Then, Boss, you go back and get some rest. If there's anything, just contact us. We will handle it. We will be on standby!"
"Alright, you guys go back and rest too."
Fang Zhao brought Curly Hair back to his room and poured him a bowl of dog food.
Curly Hair went to eat it, feeling aggrieved. He ate it piece by piece as if he cherished it.
The food in the bowl would be gone after he finished it. He would have to wait another four to five hours for his next meal.
He had no choice. He couldn't do as he pleased after arriving on Planet Yin. Besides dog food, he couldn't eat anything else, and he couldn't eat too much.
"You have to learn to control yourself," Fang Zhao said. "You can watch TV if you perform well. Planet Yin's TV will be broadcasted live. "
Curly Hair swallowed the bowl of dog food in one gulp and pushed the bowl towards Fang Zhao. What he meant was — Look, I didn't swallow the bowl too. I did well, didn't I?
"Alright, you can watch TV by yourself."
As soon as Fang Zhao finished speaking, Curly Hair ran over to the television in the room and switched to the political news channel. He put on a very serious expression.
After a while, Fang Zhao went to the study.
Curly Hair peeked in and saw Fang Zhao immersed in his work. Curly Hair switched to a competitive gaming channel and watched a live broadcast.
In the study, Fang Zhao sighed silently.
It wasn't that he didn't know about Curly Hair's little tricks, but he pretended not to notice. It was good to have something to divert Curly Hair's attention so that he wouldn't drool all the time.
After tidying up the music score in his hands, Fang Zhao continued with his revision.
For this performance, Fang Zhao wanted to recreate "Legend" and give it a new lease of life.
He had already shown Mo Lang the score for the second composition, and it had been approved. When it came to understanding works and the composer's will, Mo Lang only trusted Fang Zhao.
Therefore, Fang Zhao had a lot of things to do. Next, he had to communicate with the band members, supervise the band's rehearsal, point out the flaws in the rehearsal process, and provide solutions.
Just as he was sorting out the proposal, the doorbell rang.
Fang Zhao did not hang a "Do Not Disturb" sign on the door, and he did not know who would come looking for him at this time. The artists had already gone back to rest.
When he opened the door, he saw a young man and two soldiers standing outside.
Fang Zhao was astonished when he saw the golden badge the young man was wearing.
Although he had just arrived on Planet Yin, Fang Zhao already knew the corresponding rank of the badge. Those two soldiers were probably there to protect this young man. There would be people responsible for the safety of gold-badge engineers when they went out.
However, to be able to reach the gold-badge rank at such a young age, he was definitely an extremely important talent. It was only right for him to be protected.
When the young man in front of him saw Fang Zhao, he was both excited and somewhat reserved.
"Zhao Zhao Zhao Big Bro! My name is Yuan Zheng! I'm your die-hard fan!! "
His words were forceful and resounding, especially the last three words.
The two soldiers behind him: "…"
What happened to being a rational fan?
Did I say something wrong because I was too nervous?
However, Yuan Zheng did not realize what he had said wrong. He did not even remember what he had said. Right now, all he could think about was the excitement of meeting his idol.
"Big Bro Zhao, did I disturb you?" Yuan Zheng scratched his head in embarrassment.
"No, come on in." Fang Zhao smiled.
"Hey! Thank you, Big Bro Zhao! "
When Yuan Zheng entered the house, the two soldiers followed him in.
Yuan Zheng snapped out of his daze and hurriedly explained, "Big Bro Zhao, these two are here to ensure my safety. According to regulations, gold-badge engineers need at least two soldiers to protect them when they go out."
"It's only right." Fang Zhao poured two cups of water for the two soldiers and handed them over. Then, he looked at Yuan Zheng.
In front of his idol, Yuan Zheng did his best to show off his excellence. Before coming to Fang Zhao, he had worn all the medals he had received. He had also polished and worn the little gold badge that symbolized his rank as a Planet Yin engineer. He would never embarrass his idol!
"I was born on Planet Yin and am currently a gold-badge engineer at the Warp Engine Technology Research Institute. My parents are also warp engine engineers. I am the second generation of engineers in my family. Big Bro Zhao, you can also call people like us' Second Generation Warp '! I have participated in many important projects … "
"Cough!"
Yuan Zheng had just started speaking when a soldier beside him coughed, reminding him that there were some things he could not say.
Yuan Zheng paused for a moment and skipped the "important projects" part before continuing. "In any case, I am very impressive! When it comes to talent, I am the research institute's first … second. Apart from Little Xiong who came not too long ago, I am the youngest gold-badge engineer in our research institute! "
As he said this, Yuan Zheng still felt a little sullen.
In the past, he had indeed been the research institute's number one genius. Ever since that kid with the surname Xiong arrived, he had been pushed down the throne.
"When I knew you were coming, I even prepared a big gift! I personally made a model of a warship! It's a pity that after the security check, there was only one component left … I wasn't able to rush over for the afternoon fan meeting. "
As he spoke, Yuan Zheng's voice became softer and softer. He squeezed out an awkward and bitter smile and handed over the fingernail-sized component.
After going through the security check, only a small part was left. Yuan Zheng had no choice. This was already the security officer's bottom line. Even a genius gold badge engineer like him could not make an exception.
Yuan Zheng didn't have any other presentable gifts on hand. He hadn't made sufficient preparations because he was pressed for time, so he could only hand over the component.
"Big Bro Zhao, you guys still have to stay on Planet Yin for a period of time. I will go back and make another gift that can pass the security check!"
"This is already very good," Fang Zhao said as he took the unremarkable component. Fang Zhao took the unremarkable component. "This is a part of the warp engine model, right?"
"Yes!" Yuan Zheng wanted to say something else, but the soldier beside him coughed softly and swallowed his words.
Yuan Zheng felt wronged.
Too difficult!
As a gold-badge engineer, chasing after an idol was too difficult!
He couldn't mention this or that, and he couldn't even give out a gift. He was too embarrassed to speak to his idol!
Yuan Zheng, who was racking his brains for an explanation, raised his head and realized that Fang Zhao was looking at him. His smile was benevolent.
Yuan Zheng met Fang Zhao's gaze:???
Before Yuan Zheng could figure out what Fang Zhao's gaze meant, Fang Zhao took out a palm-sized box and handed it over. Inside was the Poseidonsaur skeleton model.
"D-for me?" Yuan Zheng was so excited that he stuttered.
Fang Zhao nodded.
Yuan Zheng extended both hands and received the box solemnly, as if he was receiving an imperial edict.
"Big Bro Zhao, can you … sign your name on the base of the model?"
"Sure."
Fang Zhao found a suitable pen and signed his name on the base of the Poseidonsaur skeleton model.
Worried that he would disturb Fang Zhao's rest, Yuan Zheng didn't stay for long and quickly left.
Yuan Zheng hugged the box containing the Poseidonsaur skeleton model to his chest all the way out.
Yuan Zheng's eyes were red as he walked away.
"I'm so touched! I actually received a gift from Big Bro Zhao when I gave him a damaged component! "
However, the two soldiers following beside him couldn't understand his feelings. "According to regulations, you have to go through security checks when you receive a gift from an outsider. Please cooperate. "
Although the luggage of the invited artists had gone through many security checks, Yuan Zheng still had to go through another security check when he received the gift. This was also to protect his personal safety.
Yuan Zheng reluctantly handed over the model box. "Be careful, don't break the bones, especially the base. Don't rub off your signature!"
When Yuan Zheng returned to the research institute, Fang Zhao didn't continue with his work. Instead, he was looking at the small gift he had just received.
Although Yuan Zheng had revealed very little information, Fang Zhao could still deduce some things.
Combined with all the questions he had previously had, he had a guess.
He recalled what Barbara had said when they had first discovered the Alkaid.
"The 'Dream Team' of veteran exploration teams, bearing the pinnacle of intelligence from that era!"
"The pinnacle of intelligence from that era …" Fang Zhao muttered as he looked at the small component in his hand.
The Alkaid of the "Dream Team" had existed for 400 years.
Yuan Zheng had just mentioned "Little Bear." It was highly likely that this was the ordinary-looking child with a mechanical core. The child that had once existed on the Alkaid.
To be able to achieve such a perfect disguise in a crowd, this wasn't any ordinary artificial intelligence.
During the Period of Destruction, Fang Zhao had come into contact with many of the great scientists of that era. He knew that every time there was a flash of human intelligence, the development of the world would take a leap forward.
However, what was the possibility of artificial intelligence, energy technology, space warp, spaceships, and so on simultaneously undergoing multiple flashes of intelligence in a mere 100 years after the founding of the New Era?
During this period, the world that had suffered a devastating blow still needed to recover from the cataclysm, rebuild cities, and form a new order in the 12 continents.
"Is it a great burst of intelligence, or …"
Fang Zhao's gaze was focused on the small component in his hand. It was as if he was looking through this tiny component to a distant image.
There was another possibility.
"An outsider."
An outsider.
