Chapter 474: Chapter 323 I Eat a Lot_2

"I now belong to the type who raises snakes in the clouds," the veteran actor said.

Feng Yi shared with the veteran actor about the "little koi fish" from Yang City Zoo.

The veteran actor was very happy, but he didn’t keep Feng Yi talking for too long, not wanting to affect Feng Yi’s social interactions.

As Feng Yi continued walking inside, the celebrities and stars greeted him amiably or nodded politely when they saw him.

Those present, regardless of what they thought inside, were all very friendly on the surface.

In the midst of the small talk, everyone subtly observed each other’s outfits and accessories, first checking for any dress clashes, with similar ones also counting. At such an event, a dress clash wasn’t just a matter of "who looks uglier, who feels awkward"; it was the kind that could lead to mutual destruction and grudges.

The celebrities often wore brand new, yet-to-be-released outfits from major brands to these events, and those with lesser status had to pull strings to borrow them.

It was utterly exasperating to go through all that trouble only to end up in a dress clash. If someone took a photo and posted it online during the event, for decades to come, content writers crafting marketing copy could dredge you up for ridicule.

A top male star glanced at the watch on Feng Yi’s wrist several times, then stealthily stepped aside and called his assistant, asking the assistant to bring another watch from the hotel room.

Damn, the watch he had managed to borrow, just like the one on Feng Yi’s wrist, was from the cosmic celestial series. But put together, the difference was obvious, like a standard model versus a limited edition top-of-the-line!

He couldn’t afford to lose face like that!

This event also featured live video and text streams, and the celebrities and stars paid a great deal of attention to this red carpet appearance.

Attendees from outside the entertainment industry didn’t have such strict dress code restrictions, and the public was more lenient in their expectations of them.

Like those representing prominent social events, a slightly formal dress was often sufficient, and wearing their usual work attire was no problem.

Feng Yi could chat with people from the entertainment industry as well as those from the science community.

He even found a local expert from the Joint Protection Bureau of Jing City and inquired about issues related to the electronic library, such as access requirements and reading scope. They had an enjoyable conversation until someone from the organizers came over to remind him, "Excuse me for interrupting, Mr. Feng, you may prepare to enter now."

Feng Yi exchanged contact information with the expert, planning to ask more when he had time.

The entry sequence wasn’t organized by celebrity status, as not only those from the entertainment industry were attending today’s event but also prominent figures from various fields, generally in the order of their arrival.

Feng Yi walked down the arranged aisle, crossed the red carpet, signed his name on the signature board, and was then stopped by the host for a brief interview.

There was a live broadcast room here, mentioned in the event program, which Feng Yi had also heard about from Feng Chi, so he greeted the viewers in the live broadcast room and cooperated with the host for a few words.

The male host said, "Today, there’s a very hot video, and I’m sure the audience in the live room all know about that... the video about brotherhood."

At this point, the host couldn’t help but chuckle and said, "Here, I’d like to ask you a question on behalf of the audience in the live room."

Feng Yi nodded, signaling the host to continue.

The male host asked, "How did you manage to build up such strength?"

Feng Yi politely replied, "I eat a lot."

The host laughed aloud at the answer, not taking it seriously, and he didn’t probe further, both for time’s sake and because the setting wasn’t right for detailed questions.

The audience in the live room didn’t take it seriously either and were all laughing and joking about it.

For the average person, eating too much leads to horizontal growth—stored calories do not increase their strength stat!

Some also noticed the watch on Feng Yi’s wrist, taking screenshots when the camera zoomed in, magnifying and analyzing it.

Those who were quick captured a video clip, where the dynamic scenes further highlighted the beauty of the intricate rotation and rhythm of the mechanical parts.

[It looks like he’s wearing a rotating galaxy on his wrist!]

[If I’m not mistaken about the style, it should be from the J Family’s cosmic celestial series, each piece unique, each one costing at least ten million!]

[The ultimate in opulent mechanical artistry, truly captivating!]

[Can’t afford a piece for tens of millions, are there replicas?]

[It depends on how closely the replica mimics it—if it’s just a rough imitation of the shape or an older model from years ago, a few thousand could get you one. There’s basically no high-quality replicas of the new models. One issue is patents, and the other is cost—mechanics are too complex. Even for replicas without jewels, they won’t be cheap. A ten-million-worth watch would still cost hundreds of thousands to a million for a high-fidelity replica—would you buy it?]

[I bid you farewell!]

[I feel like fortune-telling with this would be so classy!]

[What kind of battery does this watch use?]

[Mechanical watch! And you’re talking about a battery? The human motion is the power source!]

[To be honest, wearing such a watch on my wrist, I wouldn’t dare to swing my arms broadly; I’d have to walk with light steps, lest I jolt the insides and damage something.]

Then, the comments started to discuss whether the watch Feng Yi was wearing was borrowed or his own, how much his net worth was, and whether his family background was really just as it was revealed online.

Launching this live room allowed people to see the stars’ appearances and styles.

But for Feng Yi, from his clothes to his shoes, no one had figured out which brand they were.

The online public’s curiosity was intense, but with so many stars appearing tonight, except for a few persistent gossips, most people quickly shifted their focus to other celebrities.
