Chapter 1249: Us

The gorgeous fireworks were still “exploding” in the air.

A family stood at the entrance of the stadium. The old man in a gray jacket looked around and spoke.

“Where are they? Why aren’t they here?”

Yesterday, he made plans with Old Lu, whom he met on the high-speed rail train, to meet at the gate of the stadium. However, after waiting here for a while, he had yet to see old Lu anywhere…

“We have to go inside!”

Liu Peizhong still didn’t want to leave. He looked at his wife and shouted, “Just wait a bit… my friend is coming soon.”

“Wait my a*s!”

His wife decided to turn around and walk toward the stadium.

A young man standing next to Liu Peizhong was dumbfounded. He quickly asked his wife to catch up with his son’s grandma. He walked in front of his father and spoke.

“Dad, we can’t wait any longer. There are so many people here. We’ll be kicked out by security if we don’t move along.”

“Yeah, Uncle Liu.” A woman dressed in white-collar clothes sighed and said, “Can’t we just have a good time watching the show? Why are you forcing me on a date… Can’t we do the date tomorrow?”

This is no place for a blind date…

There are so many people here…

“You don’t understand!”

“What don’t I understand?”

Liu Peizhong hesitated and sighed.

“The person I’m introducing you to… is special.”

The white-collar woman rolled her eyes.

“Is he a useless son of a rich family? This is Beijing, how special can he be?”

“The car that came to pick up his parents was an A-class government car…”

“Brother, I think it’s bad manners to ghost someone, let’s wait here!”

The man looked at his cousin.

The f*ck?

But…

A-class…

The man nodded.

“Okay then, let’s… wait for a while.”

The fireworks were still blooming in the sky.

Even though they still wanted to wait for a bit, seeing how the people were still entering the stadium, if they waited any longer, they wouldn’t be able to find a seat.

On the other hand, Lu Zhou entered the venue.

In the beginning, Old Lu felt gloomy over not being able to meet his friend, but after he entered the stadium, he totally left the matter behind.

Because what was in front of him was too amazing.

The arrow floating in front of him, which was immersed in the smoke cloud, was too realistic.

“Can I… touch this?” Old Lu said as he looked at his son.

Lu Zhou looked at his muddled father and smiled.

“Touch it all you want. It’s just a holographic image, you won’t break it.”

In order to prevent equipment damage, except for a few supplementary projection devices, almost all of the holographic projection equipment were installed on the ceiling. The holographic image for the entire stadium was constructed from top to bottom, like lamps hanging from the ceiling.

There was no need to worry about breaking anything.

Under the guidance of the signs, the group quickly found their seats.

After sitting down, a staff member reminded Lu Bangguo to fasten his seatbelt.

Before the show began, he took the time to look around the stadium. He looked at the crowds and spoke emotionally.

“The Bird’s Nest is quite spectacular… It’s a shame I haven’t been here before.”

Fang Mei rolled her eyes and said, “How is it a shame, you’re here right now.”

“It’s different than seeing it when it was first built… Kiddo, when does the show begin?”

Lu Zhou was about to answer Lu Bangguo’s question when the ceiling lights suddenly dimmed, and the noisy stadium packed with almost 100,000 people suddenly became quiet.

Lu Zhou looked at his watch and smiled.

He looked at his father and said, “It’s starting.”

…

All of the viewers had sat down in their seats. The music from the corners of the venue had masked the noise from the audience.

The light beams gradually dimmed; the stadium began to darken. Everything was dark, except for a few mobile phone screens.

People gradually stopped talking and instead whispered quietly. There was a hint of excitement and expectation in the whispers.

They were looking forward to the show.

And it was finally about to begin!

An invisible fog rose in the dark; like a thick cloud, it quickly filled the interior of the stadium. It made the darkness even thicker and more gloomy.

Even the light sources from the mobile screens were swallowed up by the artificially generated thick fog.

A few people turned on flashlights, but they were quickly apprehended by the staff members, who then confiscated the phones. These mobile phones were sent to the security room and would be returned after the show.

The darkness did not last for long.

While everyone was confused as to what was going on, all of a sudden, dots of lights appeared beside everyone. The red light particles were like fireflies dancing in the dark, like sparks from a firework. They began to form a trajectory.

More and more “fireflies” appeared, like stars in the galaxy.

People were amazed by this spectacular and romantic view, and they stopped talking and began to curiously look at what was happening around them.

Children sitting in the arms of adults stretched out their hands, trying to grab the tiny red dots.

Couples sitting next to each other excitedly pointed at the light particles flying across the sky like shooting stars, and they took the opportunity and wished to be with each other forever…

The sight in front of them was like a mirage suspended in the mist; it felt unreal yet beautiful.

Suddenly, all of the light particles flew toward the center of the stadium and formed a fiery red ball.

The red ball glowed like a torch, like it was made of magma. The thick wall of fog gave it a dark red color. Rays of light began to shoot upward from the ball, like artillery fire shooting into the night sky.

The children stopped messing around; the couples stopped cuddling. The adults held their breaths, while the old people clenched their fists with a reminiscence gaze in their eyes…

Suddenly, a fighter plane broke through the clouds and swooped down from the sky. Screams were heard in the stadium, and it was difficult to distinguish whether the screams were sound effects or the audience.

Everything looked like a scene in a war movie. The audience tried to dodge the artillery fire. If it weren’t for their seatbelts, all of them would be out of their chairs.

This was just the opening, the show was far from over.

The battlefield became thousands of acres of farmland, then thousands of acres of wasteland.

The audience saw people climbing Mount Everest in the snow. They saw ice lands, mountains, and people carrying sickles and hoes, fighting for the lifeline of the industry…

People were the least valuable machines in the era of low productivity.

But this kind of invaluable machine was able to create an entire industry.

There was only one reason.

People believed that tomorrow would be better.

This was the only fuel that kept them going, day after day.

Back then, there was no such thing as automation or artificial intelligence. However, they still firmly believed that one day in the future, everyone could eat and wear whatever they wanted. People could do work that was meaningful and capture the value of life in things that were more worthy of their time instead of wasting their time on an assembly line…

They knew they would likely never experience this in their lifetimes.

But that didn’t discourage them.

Because they were working toward something meaningful.

They knew that, even though they wouldn’t be able to witness the yields of their efforts, their children and grandchildren certainly would. Their children would be able to live their dreams.

The time passing montage was like a revolving globe. It flashed scenes in front of the audience.

When the elderly saw their past memories in front of them, tears filled their eyes. The children sitting next to the adults, although still childish, clenched their fists, and they could feel the significance in the atmosphere.

A car appeared.

It was driven from a docked ship.

The sound of the engine seemed to signify China’s entry into the world. Finally, they entered into the beautiful age. The depressive atmosphere finally faded away amid the music while thousands of tall buildings rose from the ground.

The Oriental Pearl TV Tower, the Bird’s Nest, the World Expo Exhibition and Convention Center… and the Starlight that conquered the lunar transfer orbit, as well as the Moon Palace floating above the sky.

In the last scene of the holographic video, an astronaut carrying a red flag walked on lunar soil. He inserted the red flag deep into the lunar surface.

Then, the scene changed.

The flag disappeared.

Instead, the gray lunar soil under his feet became a science-fiction space city. There were rail trains suspended between high-rise buildings, cargo boxes crawling along the mine tunnels…

Lu Zhou noticed his father wipe a corner of his eye.

Lu Zhou didn’t say anything, he only quietly looked away.

He knew that his father was a person that liked to save face. His father wouldn’t be able to sleep at night if his son saw his weak side.

“I feel like…”

“Like what?”

Chen Yushan didn’t know how to describe what she was feeling. She sniffed and said, “It’s spectacular.”

Lu Zhou smiled and nodded.

“Yeah, it is.”

Even though he didn’t know whether this show could be considered a success, nor was he sure whether this showcased Star Sky Technology’s holographic projection technology…

He knew that the meaning behind the show was accurately portrayed to the audience.
