how could Boss Lu not take the opportunity to skim some profit?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With the military and civilians building together to create a bright future, another prototype of a unicorn was about to be born.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The young director signaled to Lin Ying: \"Ms. Lin, please switch to the other CG animation; show everyone the specific process first.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the simulated Olympic venue, a torch-lighting platform shaped like a Bird's Nest, rich in cultural atmosphere, was being constructed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The screen showed that the key parts of the lighting platform were mainly made of high-temperature-resistant nickel-based alloys, while the rest of the base and framework were mostly stainless steel.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Is this... a drone?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Yes.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Leader Liu was the first to recognize the phoenix components preparing for takeoff in the CG animation; under the lighting and special effects technology, a lifelike phoenix image gradually took shape.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The phoenix's body was composed of multiple drones, with its wings, tail, and other parts presenting a vivid effect through clever arrangement and light combinations; the colors were primarily gold and red, signifying auspiciousness, prosperity, and vitality, which fit perfectly with the spirit of the Olympic Games.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As the opening ceremony of the Olympic Games entered the countdown stage, the atmosphere at the venue gradually heated up.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At the moment the countdown hit zero, all the lights in the stadium went out, and only the Bird's Nest lighting platform in the center of the stadium emitted a faint glow.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this time, stirring music came over the broadcast, kicking off the lighting ceremony.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For the sake of realism, Boss Lu specifically had the special effects artists at Butian Film make a simulated sound of audience cheering, all to ensure this proposal would make the leaders unable to resist.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Only when there is demand can one make requests.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The drones took off rapidly from every corner of the stadium and assembled in the air.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Following the preset formation program, they quickly formed a magnificent phoenix shape, its eyes flashing with bright light, its wings slowly unfolding as if gathering strength.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The flashing parts were all LED light strips; this was an important tool for the artistic processing of the phoenix shape.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With a crisp bird cry, the phoenix began to rise slowly, circling the stadium and interacting with the audience stands.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Next was the handover between the torchbearer and the phoenix; it flew with the fire in its beak, circled the torch tower for a few seconds, and then slowly descended, gradually folding its body.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With another clear cry—whether from a fledgling phoenix or an old one, no one knew—the phoenix formation swept over the semi-open steel roof of the Bird's Nest and vanished into the night, leaving only the raging sacred flame burning.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Wenjie team was the seventh proposal of the day, and the teams ahead of Boss Lu were also very strong.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Especially the foreign monk—France's ECA2.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They were the team behind the Eiffel Tower's Millennium fireworks display and had also participated in the opening ceremony of the 1998 French World Cup, as well as the opening and closing ceremonies of the Athens Paralympic Games.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Compared to Wenjie, the proposals from other teams like Gehua and Chen Kaige seemed somewhat lacking.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The cultural creativity was much the same, nothing more than the Four Great Inventions, bronzeware, Taiji, the Silk Road, and so on; the only difference was in the emphasis and order of the presentation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That was why Jiang Xiaoyu had asked that question earlier.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was just that as things were nearing the end, this young director had pulled off such a god-like \"Phoenix Returns to the Nest,\" which was simply too stunning.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Leader Liu could not help but recall the poet Du Fu's \"Hearing the Imperial Army Recapture Henan and Hebei\" from that morning.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He felt that it would be inexplicably fitting as background music for this lighting proposal: \"Lu Kuan, the technical issues you mentioned just now...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Boss Lu checked his watch, knowing that the animation had completely stunned everyone present; it was better to whet their appetites first and communicate privately later.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With so many people around, it was only Leader Liu who had the power to report level by level to request technical support; there was no need to explain in detail in front of so many people.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Regarding the key technical issues of the performance mentioned just now, I will report to you leaders individually later. Shall we first ask Ms. Lin Ying to report on the technical plan for the aforementioned proposal?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Xiaoyu and Zhang Heping both had more to say, but seeing Leader Liu smile and nod, they let it go.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was Lin Ying's turn to take the stage; this world-renowned female architect introduced, from beginning to end, the hydraulic technology for the Taiji stage lifting, the spherical screen control used in the bronzeware segment, and the steel cable suspension and track design used in the acrobatic performance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The alarm set by the staff rang right on time; Lin Ying had gone over by about twenty seconds, and with that, the report was finished.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The venue was silent for a few seconds, then Leader Liu took the lead, and a burst of enthusiastic applause immediately broke out.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Both Lu Kuan and Lin Ying stood up with smiles and bowed slightly to express their thanks.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Leader Liu clearly gave this proposal and its creators special courtesy, walking over to shake their hands solemnly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"To be able to produce a work of this level in such a short time only shows that your previous work was very thorough and detailed.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Comrade Lu Kuan, Ms. Lin Ying, on behalf of the Beiping Olympic Organizing Committee, I express my gratitude for your hard work over these past few months!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Boss Lu said solemnly: \"The country and the nation are the cultural soil upon which artists rely for survival. Leader, this is all what we should do; I dare not accept thanks.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Little Lu, there are still a few more proposals to report. Wait for me in the reception room next door for a while; we'll talk privately when it's over.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The young director nodded and packed up the materials with Lin Ying to head out.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Phew! Finally over!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Ying smiled and reached out to Boss Lu: \"Pleasure working with you, genius director!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Pleasure working with you, genius architect!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hahahaha!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The two passed the armed police on duty, verified their credentials, and walked outside the conference center.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Ying took out her phone and checked the time: \"About when will the second report be?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"At least a month. The Olympic Organizing Committee has to organize expert demonstrations, and the video of our report just now will have to be taken out and studied repeatedly.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Alright, then I have to go back to the United States first; notify me when the specific date is out.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Boss Lu saw that she seemed a bit urgent: \"In such a rush? I was thinking of having the team eat a meal together tomorrow, at the Sihe Academy.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Tomorrow definitely won't work. I have a 10 PM flight tonight; I have to go back to Chicago to attend an academic conference.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Chicago?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Ying asked curiously: \"Yes, the International Conference of the Council on Tall Buildings and Urban Habitat. Why?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Nothing. Then I'll have A-Fei take you back first, and I'll wait here for Leader Liu.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Okay.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The security level and service environment of the Kuangou Conference Center were excellent. Boss Lu, who was famished, wolfed down some pastries in the side hall and dozed off on the sofa.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>7:00 PM.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Boss Lu? Boss Lu?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Leader Liu's secretary, Little Wang, gently woke him up and said with a polite smile: \"The Secretary is waiting for you in the dining room; let's have a working meal together.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The secretary was naturally rigorous in his speech and actions, referring to the leader by his highest title.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In fact, this person's status was indeed extraordinary, and he would be considered a rising star even after the Olympics; Boss Lu building a good relationship with him was a smart move.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Lu Kuan, come and have a bite to eat; you must be hungry.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although Boss Lu's attitude was respectful, his behavior was not restrained: \"It's alright, I just ate some pastries in the room next door.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I saw you were sleeping soundly, so I let Little Wang call you a bit later. Has work been too busy lately?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Yes, *Tangshan Earthquake* is being released in December. I've been busy finishing the final post-production recently, and by the way, contacting overseas film distributors; we want to push this film out.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The working meal of four dishes and one soup was refreshing and simple; the two chatted while eating.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Boss Lu was extremely hungry and soon finished a bowl of rice; his expression was slightly reserved: \"Leader, I'll go get some more; shall I fill a bowl for you too?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Haha, go ahead, go ahead. It's good enough that I can finish this bowl of rice.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Leader Liu, in the prime of his life, looked at the casual and natural Lu Kuan with appreciation, and thought of the background investigation on him after the Zhou Jun incident.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The film *Tangshan Earthquake*, the massacre film that the Film Bureau had filed two years ago, and the efforts Wenjie had made in charity since this year.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Including his speeches and stances while attending various film festivals, academic conferences, and film forums during his time overseas.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Aside from promoting national culture, he only sang praises for the motherland and never used ugliness or exposing shortcomings as a gimmick to please the West.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For a director and artist like him, who had achieved certain accomplishments and had a certain international reputation, to be able to maintain this pure heart was truly rare.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Actually, could Leader Liu not see the suspicious points in the Zhou Jun leak case?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was just that, sentimentally, compared to parasites like Zhou Jun, he appreciated young talents with both integrity and ability like Lu Kuan more;\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rationally, the Olympic cause he presided over would never allow any unstable factors to exist.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Being able to produce a proposal that even a non-professional like him found astonishing and regretful, Leader Liu had no hesitation in choosing between Lu and Zhou.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His perception was similar to that of Zou Wenhuai, Han Shanping, Zhang Huijun, and others.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>People who truly do things will always be recognized by those who do things.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Conspiracy and trickery are techniques; the grand trend is the Dao.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Boss Lu returned with a full bowl of rice, and the leader opposite him teased: \"It seems the standard for today's working meal isn't enough? Should I have the chef stir-fry two more dishes?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Enough, enough, enough. I'll be about done after I finish this bowl.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Leader Liu put down his chopsticks and started talking about business: \"Lu Kuan, tell me in detail about the technical support you mentioned just now.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although today was only the first day of the bidding, in all fairness, apart from the countdown and the variety show, this \"Phoenix Returns to the Nest\" lighting method was truly unique.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In his view, if there were no other stunning lighting proposals tomorrow, this \"Phoenix Returns to the Nest\" would be the finishing touch to the Olympics he was presiding over.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It's like this: regarding whether drones can realize the lighting scene and process demonstrated today, there are currently three main technical bottlenecks to overcome.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lu Kuan described the situation of the teacher and student he had brought back from Xiangjiang, and put forward new requirements based on Wang Tao's recent research results.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Leader Liu was very cautious and called Secretary Little Wang to take notes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Currently, the main technical bottlenecks are signal transmission and the integration chips for the drones.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Boss Lu didn't understand much of this either, so he threw out the problems he had previously discussed with Wang Tao, not forgetting to beg precisely:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Leader, our technical team actually already has a clear research direction, but considering the actual effect three years from now, we still want to seek support from a national-level laboratory.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The young director probed: \"Leader, the domestic institution with the deepest technical barriers is Northwestern Polytechnical University. They have a Key Laboratory of National Defense Science and Technology for Special Drone Technology. I don't know...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Northwestern Polytechnical University had successfully test-flown China's first drone system as early as 1958 and was in a leading domestic position in key technical research such as drone aerodynamic layout, flight control, and navigation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Leader Liu's expression was serious: \"This involves weapons and equipment; it's not that easy, is it?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Then Beihang University's Institute of Unmanned Aerial Vehicle Design, or Beihang also has relevant laboratories; we're not picky!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hey! You kid!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Leader Liu was drinking tea and was amused by his feigned shrewdness.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Boss Lu was clearly prepared: \"Leader, I have studied it carefully. This June, the Commission of Science, Technology and Industry for National Defense promulgated the 'Weapons and Equipment Measures'.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"However, it would be more convenient if there were internal personnel to coordinate regarding the specific qualification requirements and entry thresholds.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>On June 15, 2005, the Commission of Science, Technology and Industry for National Defense promulgated the \"Measures for the Implementation of Licensing for Scientific Research and Production of Weapons and Equipment,\" marking the beginning of our country's \"civilian technology for military use\" moving onto a track of legalization and standardization.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This policy document happened to contain the policy dividends that the Wenjie version of DJI urgently needed—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>These measures stipulated that the field of national defense science, technology, and industry would be opened to society, and some non-public enterprises that met the conditions could officially enter the field of national defense science, technology, and industry by the end of 2005.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Leader Liu kept a straight face: \"Since you are an enterprise that meets the qualifications, just go directly to the Commission of Science, Technology and Industry for National Defense to file a report and go through the application process!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Leader, it's just that we want to speed things up; there's no telling how long the queue is over there.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Furthermore, our drone technology is still relatively rarely researched and applied nationwide, so we still want to cooperate specifically with the professional laboratories of Northwestern Polytechnical University, Beihang University, and Nanjing University of Aeronautics and Astronautics.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Leader Liu pondered for two seconds and instructed his secretary: \"Help me make an appointment with Director Zhang of the Commission of Science, Technology and Industry for National Defense tomorrow.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Leader! Thank you!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Boss Lu had absolutely no psychological burden about buttering someone up; having a leader of this level put in a word for him was worth more than him running around blindly for half a year.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was not something that the reputation of a big tycoon or a big director could achieve.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Different professions are like different mountains, not to mention it was a classified official unit.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Of course, if Leader Liu could really contribute to the advancement of this drone technology and the marriage of military and civilian sectors, perhaps he would also receive additional rewards.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For example, gaining more recognition for his work in preparing for the Olympic Games.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Or perhaps the drones, which achieved technological breakthroughs earlier than in the previous life, could play a major role in the earthquake three years later; these would all become his achievements.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The further he went, the better it was for Boss Lu, of course.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If a transmigrator uses their butterfly wings to fan a wild flower or a blade of grass by the roadside, perhaps nothing can be changed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But the small influence caused on a figure of this level could bring about huge changes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>——\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At 8:00 PM Beijing time, the highly rewarded Boss Lu returned to the Sihe Academy in a great mood to rest and lie flat.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>On the other side of the Earth, the beautiful graduate student in Chicago had just woken up.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Actually, it was only six o'clock in the morning, but Liu Yifei, who had almost developed a habit over the past three or four years, found it hard to sleep, so she might as well get up and exercise.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The mother and daughter had moved into a big mansion in Hyde Park, less than a quarter of an hour's walk from the campus of the University of Chicago, which was very convenient.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Little Liu was wearing sportswear and originally wanted to run a couple of laps in the park, but suddenly saw the female bodyguard who had just moved in yesterday stretching in the yard.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Mia, shall I practice with you for a while?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The female bodyguard curled her lips, still quite resistant to the employer's requests outside of her job duties: \"Crystal, I think it would be better for you to do yoga like Aniston or Halle Berry.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"This is a specialty of you Easterners, isn't it?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Little Liu smiled and didn't speak, just warmed up her whole body according to Grotowski, relaxing the muscles that had been dormant for a night.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mia certainly didn't think this delicate little Eastern girl could keep up with her exercise rhythm, let alone her warm-up.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She was originally a member of the Navy SEALs Team 7 and was hired by the Blackwater company, founded in 1998, after retiring.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Blackwater was the world's largest security consulting company at the time, mainly providing professional bodyguards for political figures, facility defense, and other services, and also providing security services for tycoons and the like.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mia, who had a high daily salary, didn't expect that her employer would only ask her to protect a little girl from the East who was here to study, though she also held the identity of an actress.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As far as it looked now, it was almost a job without the slightest challenge.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Liu Yifei didn't mind her arrogance: \"I see you brought protective gear, can you practice boxing with me?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mia was surprised: \"You know boxing?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It seemed this eager little Eastern beauty wanted to test her professionalism?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Little Liu slightly assumed the starting stance of Baji Fist.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I'm going to Canada to join a crew next week, an action movie, so I have to start practicing in advance.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Alright, this job finally has some difficulty.\" Mia raised an eyebrow, naturally not taking her flowery fists and embroidered legs seriously.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Liu Yifei stood with her feet shoulder-width apart, hands hanging naturally with palms inward, stepped forward with her left foot, and threw a swift right punch!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mia felt the little girl's unexpected explosive power in advance, tightened her right hand that was receiving the punch slightly, and then there was a muffled \"pop\" sound from the protective gear.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Chinese kung fu?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Once an expert makes a move, you know if they have the goods; there was a trick to this muffled sound coming from the armor.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mia had received comprehensive and systematic combat training in both the military and the security company.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This kind of muffled boxing feedback meant that the fighter's force-generating chain was very smooth, had strong penetration, and could cause significant impact inside the target's tissues.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For ordinary people and enthusiasts, if they exerted their full strength at this punching speed, the sound produced should be a sharp, crisp crack.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Is that okay?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Liu Yifei had learned these moves from Yuan Heping when filming \"The Forbidden Kingdom.\" Although she hadn't studied them systematically, she had dabbled in the force-generating methods and core essentials.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Since then, she had practiced daily; saying she was proficient in Baji Fist might be an exaggeration, but she could perform ordinary opening punches, leaning strikes, and other moves quite decently.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Coupled with her powerful control over her muscles from acting training, this punch was able to produce an explosive power that surprised even Mia.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"A bit interesting, come on, continue.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mia didn't mind having an employer who was slightly proficient in boxing and kicking; at least it was much better than being weak and helpless.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She became slightly more serious, wearing the protective gear and actively responding to Liu Yifei's punches, gradually increasing the intensity from the initial probing strikes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hey! Ha!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In Hyde Park, next to the University of Chicago in the capital of Illinois, America, a little Eastern beauty and a tough female bodyguard were getting more and more intense!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mia dodged a straight punch and habitually threw an elbow strike.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She just wanted to pull it back hard, but didn't expect Liu Yifei to stick close quickly, her body bending like a bow, and suddenly using her back and shoulders as the point of force, she slammed into her hard.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Are you okay? I didn't hold back my strength.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Little Liu stuck out her tongue and reached out to Mia, who had been knocked down by her Iron Mountain Lean.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mia sat on the ground and let out a breath; of course, she had held back her strength to protect her employer just now, otherwise, she couldn't have fallen into a disadvantage.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But even so, such impact force and explosive power were not what an ordinary actress should have.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Crystal, do all you Chinese girls learn kung fu?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mia smiled and patted the dust off her body: \"I also heard that your students receive military education from the age of fourteen or fifteen.\" \"That's military training, not formal military education, and I only learned martial arts because of filming,\" Little Liu said with a giggle, covering her mouth.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Little Liu explained earnestly: \"Mia, can you teach me your boxing and combat techniques?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mia didn't know why her young employer was so interested in boxing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Damn, don't those Hollywood actresses spend every day researching where to get a boob job, get an injection, or maintain their ovaries?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Ordinary combat routines are fine, but those with too much lethality are not convenient.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"That's fine, I just want to exercise.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Liu Yifei wiped the beads of sweat from her forehead: \"I had more than three years of actor training courses in the past, and I'm not used to it suddenly stopping, so I have to find something else to replace it.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mia nodded, simplified the combat tutorial she had from the Navy SEALs, and immediately started practicing with her employer until they were both panting.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The morning temperature in Chicago in October was around 10 degrees, the air was humid, and the breeze was gentle.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Liu Yifei exerted her full strength without any worries, not afraid of hurting her professional bodyguard sparring partner, but unfortunately, she was stopped by her mother before seven o'clock.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Time for breakfast, Xixi, Mia, come join us.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Oh, thank you, Lady, do I have the honor of tasting your Chinese-style breakfast?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Little Liu was sharp-tongued: \"My mother used to be a dancer, believe me, you won't be very interested in her cooking.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Haha!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The three of them walked into the house laughing, and Zhang Chunru had just set the table.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She was currently in a semi-retired state, and her main task was to act as a consultant for the Holocaust film crew and for Lu Kuan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After this, she had another goal, which was to promote communication and understanding between Chinese and American cultures.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She wanted to continue to introduce China's history, culture, and current social situation to the American public through her works and activities, and to enhance mutual understanding and friendship between the people of the two countries.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was recorded in her posthumous manuscripts in later generations.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If cultural exchange and recognition could be enhanced, it would also be of great benefit for Westerners to face and become familiar with this period of history.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was a very simple truth: people's empathy for strangers and friends cannot be the same.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The four of them sat at the dining table, having a very conventional American breakfast: omelets, waffles, oatmeal, etc.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Liu Xiao said awkwardly: \"Sorry Mia, we just moved in and the preparations today aren't enough, I'll treat you to an authentic Chinese breakfast in a couple of days.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Mom, I'll write you a grocery list, you can go to the Xiangjiang Supermarket in Chinatown to buy them when you're free, and I'll cook.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhang Chunru actually knew a little about Liu Yifei's small hobbies, but Mia was shocked once again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What kind of star is this?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She learns boxing, is good at cooking, is studying business at Booth, and doesn't go to parties after school every day, just goes home to read books and walk the dog.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Besides acting, she seems to do everything.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In China, Little Liu now has a nickname on the internet, called the \"mudslide of the domestic entertainment industry.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Now \"mingling in North America,\" in the eyes of Mia, who had been a bodyguard for many Hollywood actresses, she was like a white jasmine in a pile of poppies.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It formed a sharp contrast with a bunch of flashy, cheap women.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For example, Lindsay Lohan, who was known as the \"American Liu Yifei,\" was one year older than Liu Yifei, became a huge hit at 12 years old starring in \"The Parent Trap,\" and became a first-line Hollywood star after \"Mean Girls.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But after becoming famous at a young age, she indulged in pleasure, and didn't miss out on drugs, gambling, or drinking.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She dated more than thirty Hollywood male stars, had a lesbian relationship with Paris Hilton, had a habit of stealing, and entered rehab many times because of drug abuse and alcoholism...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>While Mia was in a daze, Little Liu patted her on the shoulder: \"I'll make you a Chinese dish tomorrow, fish soup noodles!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Xixi can also make fish soup noodles?\" Zhang Chunru asked in surprise.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her ancestral home was in Jiangsu Province, and she visited survivors in the mainland in the 1990s and had tasted this local specialty.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I can make a lot of things, I'll make them for you when I have time!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Liu Yifei just smiled as she looked at her daughter, comforted that she had changed her environment and regained the lively, cheerful spirit of a seventeen or eighteen-year-old girl.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yet, in every aspect of this life and work, it seemed she could never get around that knot in her heart, nor could she shake off the shadow of that person.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The fish noodle soup—wasn't that something she learned from Master Qiao back at the Ice Cellar Mansion?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No matter what the final outcome is, I hope she can make peace with herself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>——\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Hyde Park area where Liu Yifei lived was beautiful; she walked with her bag from the school district housing toward the Booth School of Business.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The trees on both sides of the street looked like a palette overturned by nature, with maple leaves fiery red and ginkgo leaves golden yellow.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She thought that since she was returning early today, she could set up an easel here and satisfy her creative urge a little.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hi, Crystal.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Nice day!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Along the way, they were all neighbors she had only recently met; she and her mother, Liu Yifei, had visited everyone and brought them Chinese tea and other specialties.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Woof, woof, woof!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Sunny! Calm down!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Liu Yifei watched with amusement as Uncle Ao pulled on the leash, while a Portuguese Water Dog with bangs covering its eyes struggled desperately to break free from his restraint.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Uncle Ao, good morning.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Oh, Crystal, you are always so liked by little animals; that makes me jealous.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Liu Yifei spread her hands in a very American way: \"Mr. Senator, you are always so popular with the public; that is also your strength.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The black gentleman couldn't help but smile, feeling quite fond of this young Chinese girl who had just moved in.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Crystal, I am about to move away; it is a pity I cannot be your neighbor for much longer.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I will miss your family's authentic Chinese food.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Uncle Ao had worked at a law firm in downtown Chicago after graduating in 1990, and in 1996, he ran for the Illinois State Senate, entering the political arena.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He was elected as a federal senator last year, so he stepped down as a lecturer at the University of Chicago Law School, preparing to devote himself fully to his American Dream.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If history had not changed, this old residence in Hyde Park would soon become a famous landmark.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Liu Yifei replied with youthful sincerity: \"I also really like Mrs. Michelle's oatmeal raisin cookies and pumpkin pie.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You are welcome to come over for a meal before you leave; perhaps you can discuss your work from the University of Chicago Poetry Society with Iris again.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Uncle Ao grinned: \"Okay, Crystal, see you later!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The two chatted for a few sentences before parting ways, no different from the small talk in a Western community setting.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was just that if Boss Lu were hiding under a rustling ginkgo tree peeking right now, his pupils might dilate in shock.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>While he was painstakingly cultivating connections with high-ranking officials back home, Liu Yifei on the other side of the ocean had already encountered the Black Dragon who watches the sea and listens to the waves.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Familiar with the route, she arrived at the classroom and took out her books to look through them; today was Xi Kaiyuan's High-Efficiency Leadership and Development course.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Students arrived in the classroom one after another; there were only eleven students in Xi Kaiyuan's group, and after a few classes, everyone was almost familiar with each other.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For those studying for a master's degree here, besides padding their resumes, the biggest goal was to build connections.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At a university of the University of Chicago's caliber, it wasn't just about the connections of one's classmates, but even more about the connections of one's mentors.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When McKinsey taught at the University of Chicago in the 1930s, most of his students went into his consulting firm upon graduation; his teaching was equivalent to pre-job training.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Here, any one of your business teachers could potentially become a future Secretary of the Treasury, director of an American economic research institute, or a Nobel Prize winner.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Crystal, is your female bodyguard not here today?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Liu Yifei glanced indifferently at the flippant white man, having no interest in paying him the slightest attention.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The person hitting on her was Gibson, who worked at JPMorgan in liquidity solutions and had also attended the University of Chicago for his undergraduate studies.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He was also a part-time stockbroker, profiting by selling so-called inside information.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was a guy who fancied himself a \"Wolf of Wall Street\" and was very interested in the fair-skinned, delicate Chinese girl before him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Unfortunately, it was one-sided.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Jewish white man didn't have much of a superior background; ever since he tried to pat her on the shoulder from behind last time and was subdued by that tough female bodyguard, his words and actions had been slightly more restrained.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But pick-up attempts like today's were still common.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hey, Crystal, I left a comment under your Mytube; maybe you can follow me back when you have time.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I often post photos of my workouts at the gym; you can see my muscles, which are far superior to those of Asian men.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Or there are some things I've seen at my banker uncle's place; maybe you'd be interested?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"By the way, what is the content of your next video? I admit I want to learn more about your country's culture now...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Noisy, noisy, and even more noisy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Liu Yifei really wanted to kick this shameless white man over with a heart-wrenching blow, but according to legal expert Uncle Ao, that would be punishable by up to a year in prison in the United States.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Can you shut up first? Maybe you can save your long-winded speech to fawn over the mentor.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gibson didn't mind: \"Oh! Okay, then can I sit next to you?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Liu Yifei picked up the coffee at her side, splashed it onto the chair next to her, gave him a cold look, and said nothing more.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>By now, the students had basically all arrived, and the scene was slightly awkward.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xi Kaiyuan walked into the room wearing his eternal trench coat; seeing everyone's state, he knew what had happened—after all, it wasn't the first time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Gibson, stop harassing our Miss Blue Moon, or be careful, or you might become the villain in her 'Exotic Lands 2' and suffer the punishment of Eastern martial arts.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hahahaha!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The classroom burst into laughter, and Xi Kaiyuan pointed to the seat next to him to help Liu Yifei out: \"Crystal, sit here; our topic today is related to you.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Me?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Liu Yifei was stunned for half a second, then immediately stood up; being able to stay away from this noisy fly was always pleasant.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xi Kaiyuan clapped his hands: \"Alright, ladies and gentlemen, in this class, we will continue to elaborate on and study high-efficiency leadership and development.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Still using commercial operations as examples, the topic I am giving you today is...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He turned and wrote a few keywords on the blackboard.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mytube's corporate development and operational dilemmas.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Liu Yifei's eyes lit up!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Everyone knows about the hottest MT website in North America and even the world right now; our Blue Moon is one of the bloggers with over a million fans.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"But based on well-known issues like copyright and content moderation, there has been a lot of news recently in the internet sector about MT seeking a sale.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xi Kaiyuan leaned leisurely against the desk, with the casual air of an American professor: \"Merlin, tell me what you've heard; which companies are interested in Mytube?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Merlin was a management consultant at a Wall Street hedge fund and also held several medical and internet products in his portfolio, so he was naturally no stranger to the chaotic battle in the video track that had been making headlines recently.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Currently, the ones rumored to be related to Mytube are mainly Google, News Corp, AOL, Yahoo, Viacom, and most recently, Microsoft.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"But the only ones that have actually made an offer are Google, News Corp, and Yahoo, at 1.8 billion, 1.5 billion, and 1.3 billion dollars respectively.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Liu Yifei raised her eyebrows as she listened from the audience.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That dog of a person is going to make so much money again; I wonder who will fall into the trap this time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The heartbroken girl, still in a state of \"recovering from a breakup,\" now had a somewhat conflicted view of that person.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Occasionally, when thinking of his bright spots, such as his efforts on the Holocaust film, she might miss him a little.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But most of the time, remembering that night that broke her heart, she had to curse a couple of times with great resentment to vent her anger.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Or give the head of the dog she just adopted a couple of light slaps.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That was a substitute.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xi Kaiyuan nodded with satisfaction; almost everyone present was an elite from the business, political, or academic worlds, which made his teaching very smooth.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"So-called entrepreneurial leadership has a very important aspect: the leader needs to collect and analyze a large amount of information in a complex market environment, identify potential opportunities and threats, and then make decisions decisively.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Today, we will analyze this topic from several aspects.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xi Kaiyuan's teaching style was relatively Westernized, but his board work had the rigor of a domestic scholar: \"First is the study of Mytube's development history.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"This is no longer a secret among countless analysts and internet peers on Wall Street; which student will give us an explanation?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The shameless Gibson was like a peacock spreading its tail, wanting to flirt with the little Eastern beauty at every moment: \"I suggest Blue Moon talk about it; she is a very popular blogger on MT, perhaps she has some inside information.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Everyone understood what Gibson meant; for major internet products, including local American blogs, the top content providers almost all had cooperative relationships with the company, otherwise, where would the traffic and promotion come from?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Especially considering Liu Yifei's status as an actress, it was not surprising at all that her agency would participate in such entertainment operations; this was one of the job contents for many Hollywood stars.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This time, Xi Kaiyuan did not object: \"Crystal, are you familiar with Mytube's management?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Please share your views on why Mytube was able to stand out in the video track.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Liu Yifei stood up with a blank expression: \"Not familiar, not familiar at all.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Immediately after, she began to share her views generously.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was a group discussion, after all; everyone had to expand their thinking in areas they were both good and bad at.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I am a blogger on the Mytube platform; from my perspective as a content provider and viewer, I believe its rise is mainly due to the following reasons.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"First is the innovative platform positioning and functional design; it is an open video-sharing platform similar to Flickr, where users can freely upload and share various videos, greatly broadening content diversity and user participation.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Second is the enterprise leader's keen insight into market trends; the popularization of broadband internet and digital cameras with video recording functions made video sharing an important future direction for the internet.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"There is also user experience and community building...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xi Kaiyuan looked with satisfaction at this Chinese girl who had switched paths; she was quite naive when they first met, much like many Hollywood stars he had seen coming to get a gilded degree.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But after nearly a month, she had made great progress, her thinking was very coherent, and she could usually see the logic behind the development of things—a point that was even stronger than many of the older students present.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Little did he know that Liu Yifei had been \"specially trained\" through the subtle influence of the Mytube boss she was currently studying.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, as someone who had witnessed that person's rise in just three or four years, Liu Yifei was actually no stranger to these business skills and topics.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When it came to theory, Boss Lu didn't know a damn thing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, having been a boss for several decades across two lifetimes, she naturally had some insights when it came to practical application.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For instance, regarding the leadership and personal charisma of entrepreneurs discussed by Xi Kaiyuan, she could draw inspiration from how Lu Kuan handled the matter of An Yugang and Gao Jun regarding the use of the cinema as a wedding venue;\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She could also draw inspiration from how she followed Lu Kuan on that winter night and how he persuaded Liu Qiangdong to take the bait at the dinner table.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Regarding the changes in roles and the handling of interpersonal relationships in business dealings discussed by Xi Kaiyuan, she could draw conclusions from the experience of how Lu Kuan engaged in strategic alliances and maneuvers with various parties like Emperor Motion Pictures, China Film Group, Hunan Satellite TV, and Huayi Brothers.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This included the incident with the *Foreign Land* production crew that she had personally experienced.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>How Harvey Weinstein, notorious in Hollywood and a Jewish An Lushan famous for swindling German and Chinese investors, was restrained and utilized to the extreme by him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Facing the whale-like swallowing of Disney, he turned the core figure Harvey against them, using the rift between him and Eisner to stir up internal conflict among business rivals.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the end, he not only secured the leading rights to *Foreign Land* but also got a free meal out of the funds advanced by Disney, and Harvey had been his obedient wingman in Hollywood ever since.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even if she had some doubts about Lu Kuan’s familiarity with certain information, his methods and train of thought in doing things were right there for all to see.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Practice is always more soul-stirring than theory.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xi Kaiyuan continued to guide the students to ask questions and think, posing the next stage of the problem: \"Should Mytube be sold?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This topic sparked a variety of opinions, with students present holding both supporting and opposing views.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Of course, when it was Liu Yifei’s turn to speak, this question was practically an open-book exam.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She rose gracefully, possessing a maturity and confidence that transcended her age.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The question of whether Mytube should be sold is actually a question of corporate strategy and tactics.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Is the internet product Mytube the future strategic direction of the enterprise, or is it merely a tactical tool?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Little Liu was determined to give them a taste of the shock of an Eastern great man:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"There was a military strategist in China who once encountered such a problem during a campaign...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Faced with questioning, he put forward a single sentence...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It is not that I am destroying the revolution; it is that the revolutionary weapon is destroying the revolution!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"By the same token, if Mytube is only a tactical tool, then in the face of unwieldy copyright costs and an increasingly severe censorship situation, it should be sold off without hesitation!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Faced with such extreme dialectical thinking, the foreigners in the room were stunned into silence.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mel Gibson: What kind of movie star is this?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Happy New Year, my friends!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thank you all for your support in 2024;
