Chapter 189: Chapter 186: Standard Action Movie (Requesting Monthly Pass)

"(•’╻’•)꒳ᵒ꒳ᵎᵎᵎ"

At the chorus stage, An Feng was shocked to see Qi Hao with his arms around Han Hong and Sun Yanzi, singing together.

The scene was extremely incongruous, leaving the fans on site in awe.

"Who will I encounter, and what kind of dialogue will we have?" Qi Hao sang while looking at Han Hong.

Han Hong gazed back deeply: "The person I’m waiting for, how far in the future are they?"

"I hear the wind, coming from the subway and the crowds!" Sun Yanzi, unwilling to be outdone, jumped in forcefully.

Then the three of them sang together: "I line up, holding the love number tag..."

They were all talented to begin with, and after a day of rehearsal, the live effect was perfect.

It was so thunderous that it left a deep impression.

However, it also showed from another angle that Qi Hao is dedicated; since he was a guest performer, he sang wholeheartedly.

After Qi Hao finished singing, he had nothing else to do today, so he quietly sneaked offstage.

Meng, who was occupying Qi Hao’s seat, sensibly left.

She is Qi Hao’s assistant, and follows Qi Hao with Tang Chuan almost all day long.

She also gave An Feng a ride home last time.

She could somewhat sense that there was something going on between Qi Hao and An Feng.

At this point, if she still had no tact, how would she get her year-end bonus?

Meng doesn’t aspire to anything else; she just loves money.

Qi Hao now pays her a salary far above the industry standard, and unlike other sleazy male celebrities, he doesn’t get handsy. She cherishes her current job opportunity very much.

Everyone’s attention was on Sun Yanzi on stage, so no one noticed the person next to An Feng had changed to Qi Hao.

Qi Hao changed his outfit when he went onstage and wore a different one when he came down.

An Feng turned to glance at him but didn’t say anything.

Mainly because it was so noisy on site that even if she spoke, he wouldn’t hear it.

Qi Hao observed the effect of his low-profile hat from the perspective of a passerby and found it really useful.

If he didn’t know it was An Feng and didn’t take a closer look, he really couldn’t tell it was her.

The atmosphere on site was so high that An Feng got carried away too, cheering when necessary, clapping when necessary, never putting down the glow stick in her hand.

Since they couldn’t talk, Qi Hao settled some tasks while listening to the music.

[Task 24 completed, reward: Lockpicking +10, Song "Over the Top," 500,000 shares of Penguin stock]

[Task completed, training opportunity gained]

[Train NPC choice of three: An Feng/Sun Li/Jiang Xin]

[Now starting to release new task]

[Task 25: Action films have always been one of the most popular genres in the film industry, beloved by audiences for their intense scenes, tight tempos, and strong visual impacts. The host is suggested to star in a formal film action movie. Task difficulty: 4 stars, time limit: 200 days]

[Task completion reward: Stamina +10, Script "Bright Sword," 100,000 shares of Apple Inc. stock]

500,000 shares of Penguin stock in hand!

Qi Hao now has 7.1 million shares of Penguin stock.

If this momentum continues, Ma Huateng will eventually work for him.

In addition, the new task also rewards stocks.

Tongzi is really considerate, knowing what flavor of carrot the host likes, it just directly arranged it to be appetizing.

Just not sure if the Apple stock given this time will be split.

The last time 50,000 shares were directly split into 100,000.

If this time the 100,000 shares could split into 200,000, that would be a huge win.

This time, all the training NPCs are female.

Qi Hao thought for a moment and chose An Feng beside him.

Don’t get the wrong idea, he doesn’t intend to do anything to An Feng in the training space.

Mainly because if they meet often in the future, she will always be among the training NPC options, so it’s better to choose her now to prevent her from appearing again.

As for what to train with her, Qi Hao hadn’t thought about it.

The new task is another relatively difficult task.

At least it’s hard to complete this task in a short time.

Qi Hao knew that 100,000 shares of Apple Inc. stock wouldn’t be easy to obtain, after all, without splitting, it’s a billion-dollar asset.

A task that can give billions, why would they let you complete it easily?

Action film, leading role...

Qi Hao thought he’d best acquire a new script since there are fewer and fewer action films now.

It’s always the same few people selling Hong Kong film nostalgia.

Moreover, the plots are getting worse, if it weren’t for the martial arts choreography being decent, people might not even watch this genre anymore.

But why does the darn system emphasize the word "formal"?

Could it be that I would star in one of those informal action movies for fame and money?

The system gave no response at all.

It was as if it had died.

When the concert ended, it was already somewhat late.

Qi Hao and An Feng left from the direction of the backstage together with Sun Yanzi and Han Hong, without being noticed.

Qi Hao passed a closed door and suddenly felt an urge to find some wire to pick the lock open.

This feeling was quite familiar.

Just like when he stole Wang Chonglei’s lighter before.

At that time, he had just completed a +10 stealing task, and really gained the skill of stealing.

Now, he learned to pick people’s locks.

It’s simply sinful.

However, fortunately, the urge only lasted for a few days after just receiving it.

After calming down a bit, you can control yourself.

Moreover, these unusual skills do have some benefits; they can improve finger flexibility and make Qi Hao handle roles like thieves with ease.

Although Sun Yanzi was a bit tired, she still treated everyone to a meal as a token of thanks.

Qi Hao and Han Hong came to support her, making her concert a huge success, which will undoubtedly be the most classic concert of the year.

This is significant for her upcoming shows as well.

Her team arranged the seats, and the famished crowd started eating as soon as they arrived.

"Got nothing going on tomorrow, right? Want to have a drink?"

Han Hong extended an invitation.

Being able to sing requires "iron lungs," and drinking requires an "iron stomach," both of which Han Hong has.

Her drinking capacity is quite impressive; in her younger days, she barely had any rivals, and during parties and drinking sessions, except for the fearless young ones, everyone who knew her drinking capacity would avoid her.

There was a rumor in the circle about Qi Hao’s exceptional drinking capacity, and she wanted to see how good it really was.

Today was both a comparison and a life-or-death decision.

"Let’s not. We’re singers, drinking and smoking will ruin our voices."

Qi Hao quickly refused, wondering what the point was of getting tipsy at night, wasn’t it good enough to sleep soundly?

Although his drinking capacity is indeed strong, it doesn’t mean drinking excessively is enjoyable.

"(ˉ▽￣～) Tch~~" Han Hong looked down on Qi Hao but did not press further.

According to her understanding, Qi Hao must be afraid of not being able to perform well after drinking too much.

These young guys still likely have plans after dinner that they don’t want to miss out on.

"Then no drinking, let’s toast with tea instead, to thank everyone for the support today."

Sun Yanzi, who has spent time in the Hong Kong circle, is also familiar with drinking culture.

Despite being professional singers, smoking, drinking, and clubbing were all part of daily life.

Not only did Han Hong drink and smoke, but she even smoked cigars.

"No need to be formal."

Qi Hao, having completed his task, was in particularly good spirits.

This task was completed in just over half a month, thanks to Sun Yanzi and her concert.

"Ah, I didn’t really help with anything."

An Feng was quite embarrassed, not only attending someone else’s concert for free but also mooching off their supper.

Now she was receiving thanks for free as well.

"Helping is easy. As long as the media reports that An Feng attended the concert, our Lanzi won’t worry about lacking popularity."

Han Hong joked.

"Please no, I really don’t want any rumors with her."

Qi Hao spoke up immediately before An Feng could say anything, rejecting the idea with a rather unconventional reason.

An Feng almost retorted.

What, rumors with me make you uncomfortable?

I see you are quite eager when it comes to rumors with others.

From early in the year with Tang Yan to Wan Qian, Qin Hailu, and Zeng Li...do you just casually get involved in scandals with female celebrities?

"What are you afraid of? A clear conscience fears no gossip!"

Han Hong was a bit disappointed.

But she couldn’t force it, as these matters must be agreed upon by the parties involved to be publicized.

"Cough cough, words can be terrifying!"

Qi Hao continued to refuse, having rich experience in handling rumors.

If An Feng was also a guest performer, then attending Sun Yanzi’s concert together wouldn’t mean much.

However, An Feng attending in secrecy made it easy for the media to interpret in various ways.

"Let’s not make it difficult for them."

Sun Yanzi patted Han Hong’s hand. She was thankful for Han Hong’s help but also grateful to Qi Hao for his support.

An Feng attending her concert gave her a sense of pride too.

So she wouldn’t overly trouble her.

In her experience, if someone with frequent rumors deliberately avoids new ones, at least those two cannot be innocent.

Indeed, a clear conscience fears no shadows, but what if there’s something to hide?

So, they moved past the topic, chatting happily afterwards.

An Feng turned out to be quite likable, not the naive sweetie or lamb in Han Hong’s impression.

Surprisingly insightful, she has a much more mature mind than her age suggests.

After the exhausting concert, everyone decided to head home after the meal.

Of course, they all exchanged contact information.

These are networking opportunities.

Having more friends makes it easier to solve problems in the future.

An Feng had been sheltered by her mother for too long, missing out on building connections in the entertainment industry.

"I’ll take you home."

Qi Hao hadn’t drunk today; having asked Li Xiaomeng to take her last time, it would be impolite not to offer now.

"My home is too far, in the suburbs. Driving to the suburbs and back would take forever."

With Qi Hao being so busy, An Feng really didn’t want to trouble him.

Besides, if she ran into her mother when she got home, it would be tough to explain why Qi Hao was the one seeing her home after the new event announcement.

"Consider it an apology."

Qi Hao didn’t think forgetting to inform An Feng was a grave mistake, but wrong is wrong.

An Feng was gracious enough not to hold a grudge; he couldn’t just ignore it.
