Chapter 304: Princess Yongning’s pen is mind-blowing, 2 updates!

She was a legend of the Global Center, with a sharp eye that could rapidly and precisely identify investment opportunities, earning her the title of "Financial Queen" at a young age.

Even in a place like the Global Center, if she wished, she could stir up a financial storm in minutes.

The World Bank was not just a bank, but also owned countless top-notch collections, rivaling any museum.

It could be said that as long as the World Bank stood, Kristin Constans was the richest person in the world.

"Oh, it’s Miss Kristin," Producer Liu nodded hastily, relaying Ye Wanlan’s message verbatim to the head of Yunjing Television Station, "Miss Ye said it’s Miss Kristin Constans, and it was this lady who helped us secure several major advertising screens at the Global Center!"

Upon hearing this name, the head of Yunjing Station had not yet reacted.

After a moment of silence, he shakily asked again, "Who did you say?"

"Kristin Constans," Producer Liu couldn’t help but complain, "Station Head, how can your memory be worse than mine?"

"Bang!"

A loud thud came from the other end, startling Producer Liu, "Station Head? Station Head, are you alright?"

The head of Yunjing Station sat on the ground, failing to regain his composure for a long time.

Kristin Constans!

Wasn’t that the name of the current President of the World Bank?

Was he hallucinating, or was the world actually fictitious?!

"Liu, you, you better not be bluffing and twist your tongue," the head of Yunjing Station took a deep breath, "When you mention this name, did you really search it online?"

"Huh?" Now it was Producer Liu’s turn to be confused, "No, wait a second, I’ll look it up now."

He snatched the director’s phone and entered "Kristin Constans" into the search bar.

In an instant, millions of search results popped up.

The first result was from Global Encyclopedia.

[Kristin Constans, female, from Global Center, 25 years old, graduated from Shenzhou University with a degree in Finance, holds a Ph.D.

Currently serves as the President of the World Bank, the second daughter of the Constans Family.]

"Clang!"

Producer Liu’s hand trembled, and both phones fell to the ground.

It had to be the way he opened the webpage that was incorrect, or he had gone blind!

"Hey, what are you doing?" the director picked up his phone with concern, "I’ve had it for five years, don’t you dare break it."

At the same moment, he too saw the page of Global Encyclopedia.

"..."

All noise ceased, and the air grew quiet.

Three seconds later, both of them turned their startled gaze towards Ye Wanlan.

Miss Ye’s friend... was such a revered figure?

The President of the World Bank!

A personage even heaven and earth could not easily summon, how on earth did Miss Ye convince her to invest?

"I discussed it with her a long time ago, the exclusive broadcasting rights could only be hers," Ye Wanlan said, "But she is trustworthy and reliable in her work."

"Trustworthy! Of course, we trust!" Producer Liu couldn’t help yelling, "Even if I don’t trust myself, I must trust Miss Kristin!"

This was the Financial Queen!

Would she engage in a losing trade?

Of course not!

Under the guidance of the Financial Queen, profits could be increased by tenfold or more.

The trailer was played five times, and audiences around the world also watched it five times.

[World’s Richest]: The effect is very good, I’m very satisfied. Although advertising globally has cost a sum of money, the return is very nice. This is a long-term project, and when the show officially airs, I expect to earn even more.

[World’s Richest]: Sister YN, does the production team have any other comments?

[YN]: No, I was just shocked by your name, turned into a statue.

[World’s Richest]: What’s wrong with my name? It’s very common, blame my father for being an illiterate who knows nothing about literature or writing.

[Cultured Person]: ... I almost forgot that Rich Sister graduated from Shenzhou University. I was about to praise Rich Sister for her excellent use of idioms.

[Crazy Scientist]: What kind of memory do you have? Have you not realized after all this time that we have always been communicating in Chinese?

[Ghostbuster Bro]: Nonsense, my ancestors were People of Shenzhou, if not Chinese, what else should I use?

[Deadly Poison Master]: Your ancestors were from Shenzhou? Then you and Sister YN are fellow countrymen.

Seeing this message, Wen Chaosheng did not reply and snorted.

In the group, only he had seen YN; let the rest be envious!

At two in the afternoon, the production crew started a new round of filming.

"I have some good news for everyone, the show’s trailer has officially been launched overseas, and once all twelve episodes are produced, they will be released worldwide," announced the director, beaming with excitement. "This is a great chance for Shenzhou’s culture to go global, so everyone must perform their best."

This statement sent a jolt through all the guests, even for the well-established actors in the film industry such as Shen Yeqiu and Xu Qingyu.

In recent years, Shenzhou had fallen behind the rest of the world in the realm of film and television, struggling to be shortlisted for international awards.

While there’s no shortage of suppression and exclusion as the reasons, it’s certainly a weak point for Shenzhou.

This year marked a fast development for Shenzhou’s art and culture, with a large-scale sci-fi movie successfully released in more than a dozen foreign regions at the beginning of the year, securing a commendable box office.

But for a variety show to go international was exceedingly difficult.

Although Shen Yeqiu and Xu Qingyu had both received Grand Slam titles in acting, they had yet to break into the global film circle, always struggling on the fringes.

Who would have thought that they would officially enter the global audience’s view following a variety show?

Naturally, the most excited of all was Qi Yunzhao.

He was aware that he was a top star promoted by Shengshi Entertainment and that in terms of acting, presence, and line delivery, he might not even match some eighteenth-tier stars.

He took on the show "Treasures of The Divine Land" hoping to network more, never imagining his luck would be so good as to take him directly to the international stage!

Qi Yunzhao barely contained his inner joy, feeling as if he was on cloud nine.

"So, what each of us represents is not just the show but Shenzhou itself," the director spoke with gravitas. "We have to capture the real Shenzhou and show it to the entire world!"

All nodded with inspired expressions.

"Just a reminder, in half a month, our journey in Fengyuan is coming to an end," the director clapped his hands, "Next, we’ll be heading to South City, so prepare yourselves."

The assistant director added, "South City will soon hold an exhibition of intangible cultural heritage with many craftsmen attending, and at that time, our crew will also take everyone to visit."

"Today we are heading to Cangshu Pavilion," the director gestured, "Keep up, everyone."

Rong Qi lagged a step behind, asking in a low voice, "Miss Ye, is your health still troubling you in any way?"

Between smart people, sometimes a single sentence is all that’s needed, without any need to spell it out, to understand each other’s meaning.

Ye Wanlan knew that Rong Qi was asking if the Transcendent Woman would once again invade her body and looking aside she said, "There’s no discomfort, but I’m not certain it won’t occur in the future."

Rong Qi nodded, pulling out an amulet from his pocket: "Please take care of this, Miss Ye. It was crafted with the Supreme Elder to stabilize the spirit and nourish the soul."

"Thank you." Ye Wanlan’s eyes flickered as she took it, "If there’s anything I can help with in the future, just let me know."

Rong Yu, puzzled like a confused monk, said, "Big brother, Student Ye has always been very healthy; aren’t you jinxing her by doing this?"

Rong Qi: "..."

He truly wanted to crack open Rong Yu’s head right then and see what exactly his foolish younger brother had inside.

Definitely not brains, anyway.

"We’re going to record the program. You don’t need to follow," Rong Qi said indifferently, "Just go and find someplace to amuse yourself."

"Huh?" Rong Yu pointed to his nose, "But the director said that as a family member, I could observe."

Rong Qi replied coldly, "I have no family members."

Rong Yu: "..."

Yan Tingfeng softly coughed and with a slight smile said, "Xiao Wan, let me carry your bag for you."

Cangshu Pavilion was situated in the southeast corner of Fengyuan City and was also a tourist site, but its interiors were privately owned and not open to the public.

Cangshu Pavilion housed many masterpieces of calligraphy and also included various expensive writing materials like brushes, ink, paper, and inkstones.

The production team had contacted the owner of Cangshu Pavilion in advance, which allowed them to film there.

The glass cabinets contained exquisite calligraphy utensils.

Just as described in the books—

"Han brushes carved with gold, decorated with jade, adorned with pearls, and patterned with kingfisher feathers. The holder is made of neither ordinary rhinoceros horn nor ivory, it’s utterly lavish." [Note 1]

The wisdom of the ancient craftsmen was boundless, and even a simple brush embodied countless artistic souls.

Ye Wanlan suddenly saw a very familiar brush.

The brush was not lavish, but it had an elegant and simple dignity, embodying the beauty of time.

She could never forget this brush— it was the first one Han Yunsheng gave her when she began practicing calligraphy with him.

After she obtained better brushes, she still treasured this one.

Never had she imagined she would see it again after three hundred years.

Ye Wanlan moved closer and bent down for a better look.

"Don’t touch!" a sharp voice exclaimed, "This brush has been passed down from the Ning Dynasty; can you afford it if you break it? It’s not yours to touch anyhow! Don’t you have any manners?"
