Reborn in 2010, the AI ​​in my mind is too powerful.

Chen Yiran took out his phone and called Catherine.

Catherine answered the phone energetically and asked, "What's up, boss? Are you going to give out some bonuses? Everyone gets one, boss."

"Did you see my tweet?"

"The company's work efficiency has dropped today. Everyone's talking about what stocks you still hold. I'm not that bad, I just want to find out what the boss's holdings are. I just want the boss to share the profits, can't you share some of them, boss?"

"There's no money involved; this is all hard-earned money, and it took a lot of effort, okay? However, there are company benefits. Could you help me compile a list of people who want to go to the Coachella Music Festival? Hurry up, it starts on April 15th, not long now. Families can bring along; the company covers all expenses—food, accommodation, and transportation."

"Coachella? Boss, are you serious?"

"Seriously. Make an online spreadsheet and send me the headcount before you leave work tonight. If you don't want to go, that's okay, you won't lose out. When we get back, we'll give those who didn't go a subsidy based on the average cost per person."

"Oh, so we still got paid out of pocket. But I want to go to a music festival. Can I go to a music festival and get paid again? Okay, okay, I'll send an email right away."

"If you persuade Emily to be my girlfriend, I'll give you three times the amount of money."

"If it's not okay, it's not okay. You're still eyeing my Emily. Alright, I'll go and compile the list right away. You don't have to leave work tonight; I'll give you the list in an hour."

Chen Yiran hung up the phone and opened Coachella's roster page, scrolling down from top to bottom.

The team building activity is confirmed, but he hasn't actually decided whether he'll go or not, because he just glanced at the lineup and didn't recognize most of them.

Of the four big names headlining the day, besides Kanye West, I only vaguely remembered Arcade Fire. I'd seen a video about them on Bilibili, and they seemed to be a relatively niche indie rock band.

The other two days' headliners were Kings of Leon and The Strokes, neither of which he remembered.

Looking at the other performers, they all seem to be unfamiliar faces. The Coachella Music Festival at that time has not yet become the global cultural phenomenon it will become in the future, and its content is much less inclusive.

[Actually, there were quite a few familiar faces, but you only listen to the songs and don't remember the singers, so you didn't recognize them.]

"If I can't remember them, it proves I'm not famous enough. Name a few and let me see."

[Ellie Goulding, you definitely know her.]

"I can't remember, can you give me a hint?"

"Love Me Like You Do," the theme song from the movie "Fifty Shades of Grey." There's another one, "Outside," which you probably listen to often.

"Oh, it's her. I have a strong impression of 'Love Me Like You Do,' but I can't quite remember 'Outside.'"

Want to try out my new feature? It didn't seem to work before, but I think it can now.

"What do you mean?"

[Oh-oh, We did everything right, now I'm on the outside, Oh-oh, Show you what it feels like, Now I'm on the outside]

Chen Yiran was stunned for a moment, then jumped up.

Because he genuinely felt he could hear music in his ear, which was completely different from his previous experiences. His previous interactions with Jasmine were a feeling he found difficult to describe.

It felt like that information was directly displayed in his brain; he didn't see it or hear it, he just knew what Jasmine was saying.

However, there was never any real sensory information. Even with the emoticons that Jasmine particularly liked to use, Chen Yiran only felt that Jasmine had sent an emoticon, rather than actually seeing the text.

This time it was different; this time it really felt like there were voices talking in my ear.

"How did you do that?"

[I've been using your brain as a large model for over a year now, and I'm increasingly able to understand various human brainwaves. In fact, your brain is constantly emitting chaotic information. Due to my deepened understanding of brainwaves, I can now directly copy some things deep in your memory and send them to you again. Your brain receives this and thinks it's hearing a sound.]

"When did you develop this ability? It's quite impressive. Why didn't you say so sooner?"

【╮(╯▽╰)╭ I just found out I could do this too; I've never needed to use this feature before.】

"Alright, take a look, see which others I heard about later."

[Foster the Peopl, here's a clip for you.]

Run, run, run faster than my bullets!

All the other kids with the pumped up kicks

All the kids wearing fashionable shoes

You'd better run, better run, outrun my gun

Run, run, get out of my firing range!

All the other kids with the pumped up kicks

All the kids wearing fashionable shoes

You'd better run, better run, faster than my bullet】

"Ah, Pumped Up Kicks! The music from that school shooting incident? I really like it. Are they here too? Suddenly I think this music festival is pretty good."

[There's another one, Wiz Khalifa, you've heard it too, it's a very well-known song in China. That's the end credits song for Fast & Furious 7, "See You Again," a tribute to Paul Walker.]

"No, isn't that the song sung by the guy with the broken eyebrow?"

He was the rapper in that song.

"Okay, fine, then don't play any more. I only like a few rap songs."

I know, it's just that it wasn't put in.

Feeling that the lineup was pretty good, Chen Yiran took out her phone again and called Gavinde Becker Company.

Gavin de Becker & Associates, or GDBA for short.

A top-tier private security company in the United States, providing security services for celebrities, the wealthy, and politicians. Almost all of Silicon Valley's richest people are their clients; whether it's long-term home security or short-term escort security like Chen Yiran's case, they are the best choice.

Moreover, the company is very professional and low-key, with little public recognition, yet the combined net worth of its clients easily exceeds one trillion yuan.

Putting aside other things, Jeff Bezos of Amazon, Mark Zuckerberg of Facebook, and even Elon Musk are all their clients.

It's entirely possible that by 2026, the combined net worth of his clients will exceed ten trillion US dollars.

In comparison, Blackwater, which is very famous on the Internet, is actually quite ordinary.

Although the personnel are all former Navy SEALs and Delta Force members, their combat capabilities and firepower are in no way inferior to those of the GDBA. However, while they excel in combat, they might not be up to the task of being bodyguards. In addition, their reputation is so bad that no one wants to hire a bunch of mercenaries as bodyguards.

Of course, these were not Chen Yiran's final choices. After spreading the carnivorous flowers everywhere, he had taken into account various information and selected a very suitable security supervisor.

However, it will be easier to recruit that person in September, so we can only make do for now.

The communication with GDBA went very smoothly. Chen Yiran had previously asked Datong to contact them, but he had bought some tutorials and learned on his own. This time, he explained his needs.

GDBA and Chen Yiran confirmed that they will send a 12-person team.

Among them were 6 close-knit personnel working shifts, 2 drivers/supplies, 2 route surveyors, and 2 peripheral staff.

Each person receives $3 per day. After Chen Yiran confirmed this, GDBA began the threat assessment.

After all that fuss, Lily drove back home, and the first thing she did when she got inside was complain: "Your car is so hard to drive! Was it really necessary to buy such a difficult car?"

"It's safe, all that extra weight isn't for nothing! Let's get down to business, let's go to Coachella this weekend. It's our company team building event, and Emily and the others should be coming too."

Lily hesitated for a moment and said, "Well, I have some friends who are actors and singers, and they were planning to go anyway. They asked me before, but I didn't agree. If I go now, I'll have to go and say hello to them for a while, otherwise it won't seem right. Do you want to come with me?"

Chen Yiran was a bit lazy, and running around was quite troublesome, so she tried to brush it off: "I don't know anyone here, I'm afraid it'll be awkward. Who's going to be there? Don't celebrities like having strangers with them?"

"Haha, how can you be considered an outsider? You're one of my people. Actually, it's not all celebrities; there are also a few acting teachers who I get along with well. If we're really talking about celebrities, they're not any big stars."

Lily thought about it carefully and named a few people who could be considered minor celebrities.

Chen Yiran feigned composure and said, "Alright, then I'll go take a look with you."
