Tomb Raiding: The Bloodline of Dragons and Snakes, Starting from the Kunlun Divine Palace

Hu Bayi and Uncle Ming both nodded in agreement.

"I think I understand now, Brother Tian, ​​you're planning to 'openly repair the plank road while secretly crossing the Chencang pass,' right?" Hu Bayi initially understood the purpose of this movie and TV series crew.

The production team itself has a production crew, and the climbing and living materials are largely the same as those of the tomb raiding team.

They will also climb to an altitude of about 4,000 meters to establish filming bases.

This filming location happened to become a relay camp for the tomb raiding team to continue their journey deeper into the glacial peaks.

“That’s true, but the movie and TV series are really going to be filmed, so we’ll have to trouble you, Brother Bayi, to push forward the preliminary work on the tomb raiding. You’ll lead a small filming team to explore the peaks above 5,000 meters, while I’ll continue directing the filming from the camp at 4,000 meters.”

"I will come back to support you once you have found a reliable route."

“Alright, you’re the official in charge of tomb raiding, so the whole trio of tomb raiders will follow your orders. We’ll learn more about planning and command from you.” Hu Bayi readily agreed.

Everyone agreed that this team's trip to Tibet would be led by Wu Yutian, and they would follow his arrangements and plans.

Then, Uncle Ming took out the treasure map of the Demon Kingdom ruins that he had won in the auction in Ouzhou.

The above mentions a special place name—Guraro Silver Eye.

However, Uncle Ming only let them take a quick look before carefully putting the scriptures away.

Wu Yutian was aware of this as well.

The so-called Silver Eyes of Guraro are precisely the key to the tomb of the first Demon Mother of the Demon Kingdom.

Afterwards, everyone discussed some details and didn't go back to their rooms to rest until late at night.

******

One of the rooms.

Hu Bayi lived with Fatty Wang.

Shirley Yang and Big Gold Tooth also came to their room and discussed some operational matters with them.

Hu Bayi went out and got some kebabs for everyone as a late-night snack, but when he came back, he found Wang Pangzi knitting a sweater.

"Why are you acting like a woman now? What are you knitting? A scarf or socks? Who are you knitting it for?"

Upon hearing this, Fatty Wang was extremely smug.

"Underpants! Red underpants, of course! Aren't you worried about getting cold? I knitted them for you; wearing these is considered lucky!"

As she spoke, she reached out to measure his dimensions.

Upon seeing this, Big Gold Tooth burst out laughing.

Shirley Yang also laughed heartily, "Haha, Fatty, you really are Commander Hu's warm and caring friend."

Hu Bayi almost burst out laughing, covered his forehead speechlessly, and then couldn't help but complain.

"Are you crazy? Don't you find it embarrassing?!"

After saying that, he stopped joking and instead became serious.

"Go back and rest early. Tomorrow, the three of us will probably still be in the same group as Brother Tian. Big Gold Tooth will stay in Kyoto for now."

“Okay.” Shirley Yang picked up a few skewers. “I’ll also bring some back for my roommate to treat her.”

"Hey, Staff Officer Yang, your roommate is pretty much my type. Could you help me set them up sometime?" Fatty was truly a man of plenty, with plenty of food and drink, a deposit, and expected payment, and he was already thinking about picking up girls.

“You’d better be careful. I think this Li Xiangqin is not simple,” Shirley Yang said. “I’ve talked to her. She said she didn’t go to high school or college, but I can tell she has professional training.”

"Didn't they say they've worked as a production manager on many film crews in the South? Can't they learn and improve on the job?" Fatty recalled Ah Xing. "Chief of Staff Yang, you're so popular, could it be that she likes that kid named Ah Xing?"

"I think the other two men are a middle-aged bald man and a short man, and they are definitely not as good as me. It's that Ah Xing who might become my rival in love."

"Yeah, be careful they chop you up and make you into peeing beef balls!" Shirley Yang joked.

It has to be admitted that from a girl's perspective, Ah Xing would definitely be a better boyfriend to satisfy a woman's vanity.

After all, Ah Xing is quite handsome, and his knife skills are superb.

In this era, young men who can become head chefs are more popular with young women.

Having enough to eat and being able to eat well is the most basic pursuit of human beings.

If the other person is also handsome, that would be even better.

Wang Pangzi seems like the type of person who needs to be served.

Being handsome is one thing, but if Wang Pangzi's appearance were in "Journey to the West," he would either be the Bull Demon King or Pigsy.

At least most women wouldn't consider him their top choice.

Chapter 34: Liu Xueli Joins the Cast, Fairy Sister's Youthful Beauty

The next day.

Wu Yutian instructed Da Jinya and Long Jiwen to gather all the crew members at the activity center.

This activity center sometimes also serves as an auction venue.

There are now more than sixty people from the film crew gathered here.

"Today, our crew will be divided into three groups for activities," Wu Yutian announced from the podium, microphone in hand. "Shirley Yang, Hu Bayi, and Wang Kaixuan will lead the vanguard, finding guides in advance to pave the way for everyone."

"As the executive producer, I also set off with the advance team this time, waiting for everyone at the front."

"Mr. Wu is leading by example!" Big Gold Tooth led the applause.

"The second team was led by co-producer Uncle Ming Lei Xianming, with production manager Li Xiangqin and her team of four setting off together, bringing all the equipment and supplies. As the saying goes, 'An army marches on its stomach,' meaning that the production department should prepare logistical support for everyone in advance."

"The second echelon will be transporting two truckloads of supplies, so their pace will be a bit slower. But don't worry, our advance team has other missions along the way and is expected to arrive at the assembly point together with the second echelon."

"The remaining people are mainly the cast and crew. They will follow the production assistant, Long Jiwen, for three days of intensive training at the hotel. Then they will all take the train together and be assisted by a tour guide from a travel agency to reach the first assembly point. We expect to set up the first assembly camp there."

"The assembly camp is located in Shiquanhe Town in northern Tibet. Our advance team departs today and is expected to arrive in seven days."

"Alright, let's divide into groups and assign tasks!" Wu Yufeng handed the microphone to Long Jiwen. "Jiwen, the main force is in your hands. Big Gold Tooth, you stay in Kyoto as backup and prepare for the rest of the team. Cooperate with Jiwen in organizing the work these days."

“Okay,” Long Jiwen and Big Gold Tooth both agreed.

"President Wu!" A young woman in her early twenties rushed in, accompanied by her old friend Chen Jinsan.

"What's wrong?" Wu Yutian glanced at his watch anxiously, worried that it would delay the work progress.

"Oh, let me do it." Chen Jinsan patted Wu Yutian on the shoulder. "Brother, you're doing well! You've become a big producer in just a few weeks!"

"It's like this, this is my god-sister Liu Xueli, I've told you about her before!" As soon as he said this, Liu Xueli raised her head slightly, and her face immediately struck Wu Yutian's heart!

This is simply the real-life version of a fairy goddess!

No wonder, she is Liu Yifei's mother, Liu Xueli. When she appeared twenty years later, she looked like her daughter's sister. Now estimated to be 24 years old, she looks like an ordinary 20-year-old girl, naturally just like Liu Yifei of this era.

Chen Jinsan was born in 62 and was only 21 years old at the time, so he called Liu Xueli his older sister.

But it's obvious to anyone with eyes that he definitely has a crush on this god-sister.

“We just arrived from Hankou yesterday, but the train was delayed, and we missed yesterday’s audition.” Chen Jinsan took out two train tickets. At this time, the old green trains were slow and the railway lines were limited, so delays due to scheduling issues were common.

Hong Kong stars all arrive by plane, so they are always on time.

"Look at my godmother, she could definitely play a leading role, right? She graduated from a formal acting school. She's a national first-class dancer from the Hankou Opera House!"

“Jin San, I’m just a producer. The casting of lead actors isn’t just about looks; it’s about considering many factors, especially the investors and shareholders behind them,” Wu Yutian said regretfully to the two of them.

“Investment is no problem either. You know my dad, Chen Jincheng, right? He’s coming from Taiwan to Kyoto in a few days. I’ll have him invest for you then.” Chen Jinsan took out a piece of jade. “Brother, I know you like antiques. I brought all the jade I’ve been saving at home. Please help me out.”

"I can't accept this jade." Wu Yutian glanced at his watch anxiously. "I'm definitely not getting a lead role this time, but we can adjust the supporting roles and guest appearances at any time. However, I have to leave today."

"The artists and other staff will depart in three days. I'll introduce you to the person in charge, Long Jiwen. If Shirley doesn't mind a supporting role or a cameo, then Jiwen can take her to the set."

“Okay, any role is fine.” Liu Xueli has always longed to act in movies, but living in Hankou, she rarely gets the chance. She believes in her abilities and is confident that she can make a name for herself if she gets even a small opportunity.

But Wu Yutian knew very well that in this era, one had to become famous while young.

If a woman only starts playing supporting roles and cameos at the age of 24, it will definitely be too late for her to catch up with other young actresses who have wealthy backers.

But not wanting to discourage her, he called Long Jiwen over.

"This is my best friend's god-sister, Liu Xueli. Although she's not under contract with us, you have to treat her like one of our own. I'm about to leave with Hu Bayi and the others. You take Xueli to complete the procedures for joining the crew."

"Okay, I understand." Long Jiwen nodded. "President Wu, you can set off with peace of mind. Jin Ya and I will take care of things here."

"That's good." Wu Yutian glanced at Long Jiwen apologetically. He had just joined the company and was already busy with his own work, handling things on his own. Wu Yutian felt he had really struck gold.

Chapter 35: Departure, Heading to Tibet! (Cultivation Technique Enhancement)

Outside the gate, a Toyota Hiace was parked on the side of the road.

Hu Bayi, Fatty Wang, and Shirley Yang had been waiting for a long time, and their luggage had already been placed in the back row.

"Alright, let's go." To travel light, Wu Yutian didn't hire a separate driver.

"Mr. Wu, are you going to be the driver yourself?" Fatty Wang, sitting in the back seat, was a little embarrassed.

"It's alright, I served as a truck driver for several years, and I was even a veteran squad leader." Wu Yutian's life in this transmigration wasn't wasted before he awakened the system; at least he possessed the qualities of an excellent soldier.

“I understand Brother Tian’s intention. Isn’t this a high-roof Toyota Hiace? Judging from the layout, it’s been modified. If there are no hotels available tonight, we can stay in the car.” Hu Bayi glanced around at the surroundings, which were well-equipped with all the necessary living supplies.

“That’s right. We can stay in hotels along the way for the first few days, but when we get to Tibet, there are some places where we don’t have hotels to stay. It’s better to live in the car than to pitch a tent and just use the car as a house.” Wu Yutian knew that if he told them about the concept of “RV” at this point, they would definitely be confused.

"Brother Tian, ​​you've thought of everything." Shirley Yang sat in the passenger seat, close to Wu Yutian, making it easy for them to chat. "But don't worry, I'm an experienced driver too."

"But Brother Tian, ​​isn't it awkward to drive with the steering wheel on the right?" Fatty Wang usually drives domestic cars, and seeing Wu Yutian driving in the right lane with the steering wheel on the right, he was worried that Wu Yutian's route would be blocked by the car in front.
