Chapter 713: Chapter 456: Worried?_2

[Feng Yi’s statue was indeed terrifyingly detailed, so realistic, it’s like such creatures actually exist in the world.]

[Of course! Haven’t you seen the amount of money that was spent on it!]

[Whales in gaming are indeed terrifying!]

The show also included the segment where Feng Yi opened and closed the door, with the camera clearly capturing Feng Yi’s expression at the time.

In the show, the clueless Feng Chi, after warming up the audience, even took the time to quietly ask a staff member, "Where’s my brother?"

Staff member: "He said he had to write some materials."

Netizen:

[Your brother would rather write materials than be tortured by the show!]

[Seeing Feng Yi’s reaction, I’m really worried he’ll use his investor privileges to kick Feng Chi out of the show [laughing]]

In the show, the box of frostbite ointment also featured prominently and was not blurred out.

[Is this an advertisement for the Ancestral Factory’s frostbite ointment?]

[Let me be frank, Ancestral Factory’s frostbite ointment doesn’t need advertising at all! Its sales are excellent every year, it’s expensive, but it really is super effective!]

[I always thought Ancestral Factory’s products were all high-end, didn’t expect them to also make frostbite ointment.]

[Aren’t these secondary line products? They’re not expecting them to be big moneymakers.]

The show’s producers asked Feng Yi about the frostbite ointment, and Feng Yi told them to talk directly to the relevant staff at the Ancestral Factory.

Seeing the current content of the show, it seems that they must have reached an agreement.

The Ancestral Factory’s secondary line products, which usually don’t have much presence, suddenly took a high-profile spot on the show, leading to a peak in sales both online and offline, with a newly stocked batch selling out again.

Now, the production line for the frostbite ointment is rushing out more product.

Feng Yi didn’t pay much attention to the frostbite ointment issue, and he only watched the show in fits and starts when he had some free time, focusing mainly on the netizens’ reaction to the weather.

Famous artists and celebrities do have a significant influence on the audience, especially young people, who truly empathized with them while watching the first episode of "Survivor".

At the end of this episode, what was shown was the seemingly ordinary attitude towards life of the people living there.

Locals:

Negative twenty or thirty degrees?

Easy peasy, one can even take a stroll outside, catch some fish, and enjoy the buzz.

Negative forty degrees?

What’s there to talk about?

As long as the weather outside isn’t continuously terrible, there’s no real challenge. We go through it almost every year. After years and years, it’s just not worth mentioning.

Negative fifty degrees?

Life goes on as usual. The temperature doesn’t stay that low for very long.

The cold wave comes and goes.

This northern town is displaying a commendable vitality for life.

But people in other areas of the country may not necessarily be able to adapt.

In the show, there were also experts who, based on the weather conditions during the abnormal climate period, made some hypotheses.

They speculated on how many people would be affected if such extreme cold weather expanded southward, and what kind of impact it would have.

Feng Yi understood that all this was preparation. It was paving the way for the debut of the Meteorological Weapons.

Feng Yi didn’t place much attention on the production team. During the few days he stayed at the observation station, it was clear that the production team was well-prepared and could calmly handle emergencies. When the weather eased, while the guests stayed to reshoot scenes, Feng Yi was already on his way back.

But he wasn’t flying back directly by plane.

Jia was driving, and Feng Yi wasn’t in a hurry to get back. He headed south and deliberately took detours, passing through several cities for brief stays.

The recent cold wave didn’t just affect one small area; it impacted other places too, even if to a lesser extent.

Looking at different cities, different villages.

Farms and fields.

Looking at the people bustling about, hustling through life.

And the various creatures inhabiting different places.

Not everyone can migrate like the birds, not everyone has the conditions or courage to move and live in a new place.

Many people root themselves in one place, for a lifetime.

Even if the climate is harsh, they are reluctant to move elsewhere.

Feng Yi saw different scenes along the way in winter.

If it was a big city with a zoo, he would also visit the zoo to see how differently animals raised in captivity respond to weather compared to those growing in the wild.

Including those birds in captivity that give up migrating.

Of course, he didn’t just watch; he also took notes.

Displaying an expert’s quality, he organized his observations and thoughts into documents.

Heading south, Feng Yi made a point of returning to Rong City.

He arranged a meal with old friends and stayed at his house near Yue Mountain for a couple of days.

The house had been renovated and was sturdier, so even if it reverted to its original form, the floor wouldn’t crack underfoot.

This year, some swans flew towards Rong City, but not near the residential area—they went to the other side of Yue Mountain.

Standing on the balcony, one couldn’t see the swans.

Those wild animals struggling for survival were particularly sensitive to certain factors.

Feng Yi didn’t stay long in Rong City; after two days, he continued southward.

On the day he returned to Yang City, Feng Yi received a call that Ji and Geng, the married couple, had been invited to watch a live exercise of the Butterfly Project.

Because it was too late, Feng Yi did not go over immediately, but arrived at the Ancestor Factory Headquarters Building the next day.

It was still Geng’s highly private office.

Feng Yi sat opposite him.

On the desk in front of him lay a card the size of an ID, printed with a butterfly pattern.

Feng Yi picked it up to look, noting the material was somewhat special. Apart from the butterfly, there were no symbols or words on the card.

"It contains an internal chip," Yue Gongyang said.

Feng Yi put down the card and asked, "The time hasn’t been set yet?"

Yue Gongyang shook his head, "That can’t be set yet, adjustments will be made according to the weather conditions at that time. Command will need to track typhoon embryos and select a suitable target for the exercises."

"Are the lists for the accompanying personnel starting to be finalized?"

"Yes. I’ve already filled it out, take a look, and if there’s no problem, I’ll submit it."

Feng Yi took the tablet handed to him, reviewing the information filled out on it, all of which he had discussed with Geng beforehand.

After reviewing, Yue Gongyang submitted the list of accompanying personnel with Feng Yi’s name and information to the Butterfly Project’s auditors, right in front of Feng Yi.

Feng Yi also made a phone call to the Publicity Department of the Huaguo United Security Bureau and spoke directly with the supervisor. Concerning the Butterfly Project, only management-level staff would understand; the working staff might not be aware of the progress of the Butterfly Project.

The experts’ committee also needed to be contacted again to keep up the rapport.

Yue Gongyang said, "The vetting for the accompanying personnel will take a longer time."

This was expected, and Feng Yi understood.

Firstly, for safety considerations, since the project has extremely special significance and security concerns. Furthermore, those invited to witness the live exercise include VIPs from all over the world and important people from various sectors; security cannot be compromised, and privacy must be treated with utmost importance.

But with that, the complexities of human nature are fully displayed at this time.

The Butterfly Project’s this live exercise was destined to be of exceptional significance, a special milestone exercise to be recorded in history!

For those invited, deciding on accompanying spots was a long headache.

Parents, children, spouses—anyone with the knowledge and interest couldn’t be easily dismissed; they had to make a choice. Perhaps other relatives, business partners, secret lovers...

Oh, Feng Yi later learned from Yue Gongyang’s mouth that someone even requested to bring their dog!

Of course, the one who wanted to bring their dog might not necessarily have deep love for the pet; perhaps it was a consideration of safety.

Dogs with special training, whose loyalty is more reassuring.

Those tycoons accustomed to traveling with a security protection team, wanting to attend the Butterfly Project’s observation exercise, will be limited in number and may not feel secure.

Feng Yi also asked Geng the same question. As the person in power at the pharmaceutical giant Ancestral Factory, his travels were also surrounded by a formidable entourage.

"There will be limited people you can bring, aren’t you worried?"

"Not worried at all, I have you," Geng replied.
