Chapter 579: Chapter 378 Diehard Fans

"Pegasus V5", to others, might be a highly sought-after star product, but for Meng Lang, it was nothing more than an algorithm model slightly more advanced than today’s cutting-edge technology.

It couldn’t be used to deal with the Night Demon Clan, nor was it of much use for the advancement of medical technology.

The only purpose of this "by-product" of Zero was to liquidate it, then convert it into strength to increase his chance of survival.

He was worrying about being short on money to buy a ship. Since someone wanted to take it off his hands, why hesitate?

Selling it off after hyping it up was the best choice!

Perhaps it was somewhat like killing the goose that lays the golden eggs, given that the "Pegasus" could provide a steady income.

But the wealth that could rival countries in ten or twenty years was just a pile of useless paper to him, and in terms of practical use, it couldn’t compare to achieving one or two smaller objectives now.

Money was just a tool to achieve goals, and Meng Lang understood this more profoundly than anyone...

Moreover, considering that the original shares in Baiyeji were not purely held, apart from Hu Yifei, there was a bunch of "miscellaneous shareholders" controlling the remaining 15% of the shares.

Anyway, he was only interested in the person Hu Yifei.

It was the perfect time to start over and clean house, to do a restructuring of assets. Baiyeji would exit the stage of history, and Baiyeji would make its grand debut...

As for the leak of technology... He wouldn’t dare sell it if he hadn’t considered this issue long ago.

In fact, the moment Baiyeji released this product, the technology of "Pegasus V5" was inevitably going to spread. It was just a matter of time.

In Zero’s words, developing "Pegasus" was only a tenth of its effort.

According to the laws of history, even without "Pegasus", similar technology would emerge in the world in three to five years.

The reason why Meng Lang brought out "Pegasus" was firstly to freeload his shares in Baiyeji.

Secondly, it was to pave the way for the advanced technology of the "Demon Hunter" development team step by step.

You can’t have the whole world still saying "Hey! Siri," while you suddenly try to build a "Skynet" out of nowhere.

To speed up, you still have to ensure that the passengers don’t feel the accelerator being pressed, which truly tests the skill and experience of an experienced driver...

"Uncle, come over here, we can go in now!"

At this moment, Xiao Yu was waving to him not far away.

"Coming!" Meng Lang put away his phone and walked over.

Yan Weiwei and others, who had been kept outside, were led into the filming location by a staff member wearing a work badge.

"Mr. Qu has instructed that today you can freely visit inside the studio.

However, please do not disrupt the filming, or casually touch the filming equipment..."

The staff member leading the way into the interior was explaining some precautions while walking.

Before long, the group saw the large filming crew in action...

Meng Lang glanced through the crowd and immediately spotted the familiar figure in the center, surrounded by cameras and equipment, reciting lines.

"If you want fairness, participate in a sports competition!

If you want absolute fairness, don’t come to a sports competition..."

"Cut! Male lead number two, your expression! I need expression!

You’re a wealthy second-generation with five consecutive championships! Say it with confidence, with an imposing manner! I want that feeling of being above everyone else, got it? Let’s do it again!"

"I’m sorry, director! Sorry, everyone! Let’s please try it again!"

Meng Lang couldn’t help but chuckle.

Good timing is better than arriving early; he had just arrived and witnessed this guy making a blunder.

At that moment, Duan Xian, wearing a bright red racing suit and sporting a wealthy second-generation’s flashy hairstyle, indeed, judging by appearances alone, his irritation factor had risen drastically!

But while he exuded an air of arrogance on screen, off-screen, he was bowing and apologizing, a true newcomer with no star power.

Meng Lang was seeing a live shooting for the first time, and now wasn’t the time to disturb their normal filming, so he watched with interest as Duan Xian performed.

Duan Xian: "Whether it’s in terms of money or effort, I’ve given more than others, so I reap more rewards. I think that’s logical.

Are you saying that the ending of your fairy tale story is only satisfying if those who haven’t invested as much as me win?"

"Cut! Your gaze, I need that gaze! I want contempt, a sense of superiority, get it?

Male lead number two can be cold, can be expressionless, but the eyes must convey everything! Again!"

"Regardless..."

"Cut! Wrong lines!"

Meng Lang: "..."

This scene from "Pegasus" features the male lead number two, Lin Zhendong, returning home and partaking in a TV interview dialogue.

Due to lack of experience and some nervousness, Duan Xian frequently made mistakes during filming and even messed up several lines.

"I thought you seriously introduced your friend to act in the movie, like he was a born talent..."

Yan Weiwei watched for a while and couldn’t help but sneer with sarcasm.

"Ahem! When audiences watch movies nowadays, they either look for performance or for the face.

These days, the talent of most actors is 1% acting and 99% good looks – if you’re handsome, that’s all that matters!

My friend probably belongs to that ’good-looking talent’ category."

Meng Lang somewhat awkwardly defended Duan Xiaoxian.

He just didn’t know how his good brother Duan Xian would feel about this assessment...

"Ha! As long as you’re happy. After all, we’re all in the same boat. If the movie flops and my 20 million gets burned up, don’t think you’re going to get away with losing your 500,000!"

"Huh? You invested 500,000 too?" Lin Haitang was somewhat surprised.
