Chapter 1914
Afternoon.
"This is great."
"Secretary Dong knows how to pull it off."
"Yeah, he managed to invite so many celebrities."
"And the best part is, he didnāt spend much on appearance fees."
"Iām getting increasingly excited about tomorrowās cultural evening."
"By the way, I heard tickets are limitedāonly two thousand seats. I donāt know if I can get a ticket, but my son loves Ellen the most."
"My nephewās the same. Last time, his whole room was covered with Amyās posters."
"No wonder Secretary Dong said he must approve all tickets; he had this all planned out in advance."
As the atmosphere relaxed, the people of Jiao Lin County began to chat quietly. Seeing so many celebrities excited them all.
At 1:30 PM, another wave of investors arrived.
Everyone calmed down and quickly welcomed them under Zhang Dongfangās lead.
However, while they were greeting, suddenly, many passengers all turned towards the direction of the gate with a simultaneous gasp. The screams erupted once more.
"Heaven!"
"Liu Han!"
"Itās Liu Han! Itās Liu Han!"
"Whatās going on today? So many celebrities are here!"
Because of the celebrities arriving in the morning, some passengers who didnāt have anything else to do stayed to see if there were any more surprises, and indeed, there were.
A rush of people gathered around again.
The security personnel already had experience and had formed a protective cluster around the handsome Liu Han.
Liu Han raised his sunglasses, "Where are the comrades from Jiao Lin County?"
"Over there," the security personnel pointed in the front directionā
Dong Xuebing also recognized him. Liu Han was a very famous singer in the country. He wasnāt like Chen Ying, a half-professional singer; Liu Han was a pure singer who graduated from a music academy and had a considerable reputation in the country for many years.
"Hello, Teacher Liu Han," Dong Xuebing greeted politely.
Liu Han smiled, "You must be Secretary Dong."
"Yes, itās me, Dong Xuebing." Dong Xuebing replied, "Thank you for coming all the way."
"No trouble at all. Iāll take a look at the venue first. Do you need a rehearsal? If thereās a need for a rehearsal, Iām good anytime, haha. Iāve already had a meal on the plane." Liu Han didnāt seem to have any celebrity airs at all. He suggested starting work right away.
"No need for a rehearsal," Dong Xuebing smiled, "Itās too much trouble. I know about the professionalism of all the teachers. Iāll arrange for someone to take you to the venue first." While a rehearsal would undoubtedly be good, Dong Xuebing didnāt want to cause trouble for them. All the big-name celebrities invited didnāt cost him a single penny, and he didnāt want to burden anyone with unnecessary rehearsals. Liu Han was proactive and enthusiastic but didnāt know about the others. What if they didnāt want to rehearse and werenāt cooperative? That could potentially hurt the atmosphere. So, it was better to avoid that.
When someone comes, itās already showing them respect; Dong Xuebing couldnāt ask for too much.
Liu Han nodded, "Is the director Sun?"
"Yes," Dong Xuebing replied, "Director Sun is at the venue."
Liu Han smiled, "Itās been a long time since I worked with Director Sun. Well, since Iām here, Iāll follow your arrangements."
Amidst the fan cheers from the surrounding "star-chasers," the people from Jiao Lin County were slightly stunned. Even Liu Han, such a famous singer, was here!
Zhang Dongfang and Meng Hanmei took a deep breath.
But this was far from over. As Liu Han was about to leave, he suddenly glanced towards the gate and, recognizing someone, waved with a smile, "Teacher Feng, Teacher Qian."
"Hey, Xiao Liu!" The two middle-aged men approached. " I just saw you from the plane and recognized you from behind. It is you!"
Liu Han smiled, "Both teachers are here too."
These two were well-known comedians in the country, and even if Dong Xuebing, Zhang Dongfang, and others didnāt know them, they were familiar to the public. They were one of the top comedy duos in the country, appearing in many significant events and even the Spring Festival Gala. Their reputation was immense, and they were well-loved by the masses.
Dong Xuebing immediately greeted them, "Teacher Qian, Teacher Feng, welcome, welcome. Iām Dong Xuebing from Jiao Lin Countyās County Committee, and this is County Mayor Zhang Dongfang."
"Hello, hello," the two famous comedians shook hands with Dong Xuebing. "Our throats are a bit off these two days; not quite in the best shape. Is that okay?"
Dong Xuebing replied, "No problem at all. Itās an honor for us to have you both here."
The people of Jiao Lin County quickly got busy, and they had almost forgotten about the investors by now. They hurriedly assigned someone to escort the teachers out.
In the meantime, the hall and the open area of the airport were already packed with people. It started with a few passengers, but the crowd grew and grew as celebrities kept arriving. Even many airport staff squeezed in to watch the spectacle.
After seeing off the three teachers, the workers from Jiao Lin County finally caught their breath. However, just then, a woman in her early twenties approached.
"Li Mengmeng."
"Ah, Li Mengmeng is here too!"
This time, many young people were excited.
The people of Jiao Lin County also recognized her. Although she wasnāt a professional singer, her dancing skills were top-notch, and she was a popular star in the country.
Unlike the other celebrities, Li Mengmeng spotted Dong Xuebing immediately, as if she recognized him, and quickly walked over with a cheerful smile, "Youāre Secretary Dong, right?"
Dong Xuebing didnāt know her, but he still shook her hand.
Li Mengmeng smiled, "Sister Huilan asked me to come and support you."
Dong Xuebing suddenly understood, "Thank you for coming to show your support. Welcome, welcome. Iāve heard Sister Huilan talk about you a lot. We often watch your show together."
Li Mengmeng was delighted, "Hehe, Iām too honored."
Of the people who came, Li Mengmeng was probably the only one who knew who Dong Xuebing was, so she didnāt leave right away. She chatted with him cheerfully for a long while.
Suddenly.
Tap tap tap, tap tap tap.
The crisp sound of footsteps rang out from behind.
Everyone looked in amazement, only to see thirty to forty men and women in military uniforms walking forward with a spirited demeanor. Surprisingly, the leading military rank was a colonel, a very famous one: the singer Zhou Xu Guo. Young people might not be too familiar with him, but older generations grew up listening to his songs.
Zhang Dongfang and Meng Hanmei were visibly moved at that moment.
Other workers from Jiao Lin County were also stunned.
If weāre talking about popularity, Zhou Xu Guo and these soldiers might not be as big as Chen Ying, Li Mengmeng, and others. Everyone was so shocked because of the signal this military team conveyed.
These were people from the General Political Departmentās Song and Dance Troupe.
"Wow, Secretary Dong even managed to invite people from the General Political Departmentās Song and Dance Troupe!"
