Chapter 49: Wu Mingchang
As soon as the comment post came out, it quickly topped the hot comments.
Netizens were instantly stunned by Brother Pillar’s excellent five-dimensional data.
“There’s a picture and the truth, it seems like it’s really internal personnel.”
“Brother Pillar? I like this nickname, I’ll call him Brother Pillar from now on.”
“Holy crap! Five dimensions: 27, 29, 36, 38, 40, real or fake?”
“Three items over thirty, one over forty, invincible——!”
“Good guy, this five-dimensional aptitude placed in mainstream mechanical scroll paintings would also count as excellent, right?”
“Not only handsome, but also such good aptitude? How are other mechanical scroll paintings supposed to compete?”
“Fake, right? Only idiots would believe it.”
“The photo has been posted, how could it be fake?”
“Previously thought the debut price of two million was a bit high, now it seems too damn worth it!”
“Wail, the key is I can’t grab one~!”
“Big shot, got any connections? Hardship fee incoming!”
Many smart people had already started private messaging Wu Xian, this Uncle Party member.
Wu Xian was startled by the crazy refreshing private messages, and quickly set the account to “private account”.
After finishing, he continued the video call with the Tang Family father and son, both sides full of emotion.
“Brother Tang, cheer up, future production capacity will depend on you.” Wu Xian teased.
“You might not believe it, but this brother really feels your mechanical scroll painting concept, learning it is more natural than my family’s inheritance, especially your theory, it inspired me a lot.”
Excitement shone in Tang Beng’s eyes, as if he had found the love and pursuit of his life.
“Is that so? Any thoughts and ideas?” Wu Xian was surprise.
“These two days, I’ve vaguely felt the soul and temperature you mentioned, always feeling Brother Pillar still has potential for reconstruction and improvement, but currently no clear thought process yet.”
“Cheer up, I believe in you!” Wu Xian chuckled lightly and encouraged him.
After sighing on the side, Tang Zhenghong suddenly asked, “By the way, nephew, I see Optimus Prime’s prefix is 【Autobots Leader】, with factions and leader, does that mean…?”
Wu Xian neither confirmed nor denied, “Of course.”
“So it’s really a series-type scroll painting concept?”
Tang Zhenghong inhaled sharply in shock, his heart unable to calm for a long time.
“Don’t worry~ Everything that should be there will be there, take it slow.” Wu Xian pretended to be mysterious.
Tang Zhenghong took a deep breath, his eyes flashing with sharp light, “With your words, uncle has confidence now.”
“But encountered some difficulty?” Wu Xian keenly noticed something.
Tang Zhenghong sighed lightly and nodded, roughly explaining to Wu Xian.
Simply put, Tang’s Vehicles has been surviving on agency and model modifications from major car companies, and now all major car companies are interested in Brother Pillar, inevitably using agency rights to pressure.
Brother Pillar is after all a truck, leaning towards the high-end market, and current production capacity is limited.
So relying solely on Brother Pillar’s revenue, it’s hard to support the entire Tang’s Vehicles.
And with Wu Xian’s words, he now had the confidence to negotiate with those car companies.
“How long until the agency rights for our main models expire?” Wu Xian inquired.
“End of the year.”
“Six months is enough,” Wu Xian smiled confidently, “Uncle, go ahead and prepare for the transformation!”
……
Yaoyang City, New City District.
In front of a private villa, Wu Mingchang got out of the taxi, silently turning into a trash collector, wandering in the vicinity of the villa, as if staking out something.
Not long after, a black luxury car slowly drove up and stopped at the villa entrance, and a suited old gentleman got out.
Wu Mingchang’s eyes trembled slightly, carrying a garbage bag full of plastic bottles as he approached.
The garbage bag dragging behind him made clinking sounds.
The driver and bodyguard closely following the old gentleman instantly became alert, raising hands to stop him, “Nearly level five spiritual power cultivation, Your Excellency’s disguise is a bit too clumsy.”
But the garbage old man said nothing, just staring straight at their boss.
The old gentleman frowned slightly at Wu Mingchang, vaguely feeling a strange familiarity, “Your Excellency is?”
“Little Dunzi?” Wu Mingchang pondered and spoke.
“What Little Dunzi? Please leave quickly, or don’t blame us for being impolite.” The driver and bodyguard said coldly.
Little did they know, the old gentleman behind them was already stunned in place, as if struck by lightning.
A name long buried deep in his memories.
He thought it would be buried with him in the grave, but now it was awakened by this trash-picking old brother in front of him.
“Stand down!”
The driver and bodyguard were instantly pushed aside.
The old gentleman rushed to Wu Mingchang in one stride, somewhat losing composure, “Old brother, where did you hear this name?”
“Yesterday on the main avenue in New City, caught a glimpse by chance, thought I saw wrong,” Wu Mingchang said unhurriedly, eyes with a smile, “Looks like I didn’t recognize wrong.”
“You… you?”
The old gentleman’s body shook, heart pounding wildly.
The vague familiarity gradually deepened, a silhouette hidden deep in memory gradually overlapping with the old bro in front of him.
“Still alive is good.” Wu Mingchang said with sorrow.
The old gentleman’s dazed gaze gradually condensed, he took a deep breath, and immediately signaled the driver and bodyguard to stand down.
Then, under their incredulous gazes, he supported Wu Mingchang’s hand and walked into the villa.
Under that seemingly calm face, seemed to be suppressing a stormy emotion.
After entering the room, the old gentleman thudded down on one knee, crying out, “God Slaying Plan Seventh Squadron Vanguard, Wang Fengnian, reporting to the leader——!”
“Get up, Little Dunzi, it’s been so many years.” Wu Mingchang’s voice trembled as he helped Little Dunzi up.
And at this moment, Wang Fengnian was already in tears, sobbing uncontrollably.
“You… you’re still alive? Little Dunzi thought…”
“Yeah,” Wu Mingchang sighed bitterly, “Who would think I could still live, heh…”
Wang Fengnian suppressed his full emotions, “Where have you been hiding these years? Why no news at all.”
“It’s a long story,” Wu Mingchang waved his hand, his sharp gaze condensing, “The brothers from back then… how many survived?”
……
Old City District, North Street District.
Wu Xian finalized the scroll painting sketch and pigments concept in the Autobot Divine Diagram in one go, then prepared to head to the Insectoid Race Instance to farm some veggies.
The two divine diagrams in his sea of consciousness were like two insatiable black holes, a long way to go.
He locked the door and was about to leave, but was attracted by the trash can outside the neighboring villa.
A strong aura of wealth.
Even after becoming an apprentice scroll painter, he couldn’t help but go over and rummage.
Good guy, all level four and five scrap materials, even a few level six scrap materials.
We’re rich, brothers!
While excitedly picking up trash, Wu Xian couldn’t help but feel curious about the scruffy uncle next door.
“Hm?”
Wu Xian alertly looked behind.
Zhang Mazi led a few henchmen slowly walking over, seeing him rummaging trash, his mouth twitched, eyes full of speechlessness and incomprehension.
“Living in a place like this? Still picking? And aren’t you a trash collector?” Zhang Mazi said speechlessly.
“Collect and pick both, frugality,” Wu Xian was slightly embarrassed, casually putting the last scrap material into his bag, lightly smiling as he went forward to greet, “Brother Zhang Mazi, what’s up?”
Zhang Mazi’s expression was odd, “Didn’t you say you wanted to see me?”
“Uh,” Wu Xian’s eyes lit up, “What do you mean? Taking me to see your backer?”
Zhang Mazi neither confirmed nor denied, “Let’s go, our leader wants to see you too.”
Wu Xian immediately signaled Zhang Mazi and the others to lead the way, “Your leader knows me?”
“Yeah,” Zhang Mazi said flatly, “The reason he wants to see you is completely because of what you said yesterday.”
