Siheyuan: I am a trader in both worlds!

Chapter 540 The Opportunity to Seize the Cultural High Ground

Then, don’t say it, don’t say it.

The reason is that the personnel sent to protect Ximen Lang in later generations were indeed of extremely high quality, possessing an exceptionally high level of professional skills.

Luo had barely nervously brought up the matter to Gao Cheng when Gao Cheng learned from Luo that the armed helicopters were indeed from Gao Cheng, who had been sent from the future, immediately gave an affirmative answer.

"Flying a helicopter? Or a Z-10 attack helicopter? No problem! Our guard battalion may not have much else, but we have plenty of people with various professional skills! Not to mention that flying a Z-10 is a perfect match for their expertise, even if it weren't, their excellent professional skills would definitely not be a problem! You can just leave this to us, and we guarantee that we won't delay today's important matter or make Brother Lang angry!"

Since Gao Cheng has said that, what can Lao Luo say?
Of course, we should quickly assign Gao Cheng a task so that we can inform Ximen Lang of this good news!
Of course, Ximen Lang was very happy about such good news!
Originally, he was worried that the time was too rushed, resulting in insufficient preparation on the side of Sijiu City World, which would lead to regrets about this military parade.

But when you see that Lao Luo is so capable, the guard battalion is also so capable.

What else is there to say?
He simply dropped a sentence.

"Notify the cooks to give us extra food, a really big extra meal! Upgrade the food from the current level to a whole new level, no, two levels! Everyone, give us extra chicken legs, give us a ton of extra chicken legs!"

Then, Ximen Lang directly pulled Bai Ling along to tinker with the various photography equipment he had specially brought from the future.

As for the guard battalion, which originally ate at the third-class mess hall, how exactly did they break through the limitations of the fourth-class mess hall and reach the unheard-of fifth-class mess hall standard?
"How stupid! Why not just use abalone, lobster, and sea cucumber? Of course, wild is definitely out of the question! Just because something has the word 'wild' in its name makes it sound fancy, but it's really nothing special. It's basically no different from farmed seafood."

"Especially after those little CSs who were living comfortably started dumping nuclear wastewater into the sea, wild food really isn't as safe as farmed food. At least you don't have to worry about heavy metal contamination or mutations from eating it, so it's much safer than wild food."

Isn't it?
Because of this nuclear wastewater issue, Ximen Lang hasn't been able to afford a proper seafood feast for a long time.

I'm afraid that I might accidentally eat something unclean and mutate in an instant!
"So, this life is pretty good. No, it's more like a damn little notebook! These bastards are truly fucking wicked! The kind of wicked that's so wicked it's like sores on their heads and pus oozing from their feet!"

"Seriously, don't let me get the chance, otherwise, I'll make them suffer! I'll settle all the old and new scores at once, and if I don't kill them all, or wipe them out completely, I'll change my name!"

These words struck a chord with Bai Ling, and out of empathy for the national and personal grievances, Bai Ling immediately began to agree.

"Yeah, these bastards are born evil! Don't let us get a chance, or I'll make them regret ever being born!"

When this couple started spouting nonsense about the destruction of the country and the extinction of the race, it was utterly outrageous!
Although Lao Luo and the principal thought the same way, and it wasn't just them, I believe every Chinese person who understands that period of history and has a conscience thinks the same way!

But this
"Let's wait until we have a real opportunity before we make our move. I'll definitely help you out then! Now, let's talk about all this equipment you've brought over. What are all these long guns and cannons? And so many drones, but they're not loaded with any shells. Could it be some new weapon I don't know about?"

It's no wonder Lao Luo thought that way; these devices are just too professional and technologically advanced, so advanced that Lao Luo couldn't believe such good equipment was only for civilian use.

Therefore, it was clear that Lao Luo directly regarded these things as new types of weapons and equipment.

Ximen Lang was speechless. "No, Lao Luo, can we stop thinking about fighting and killing all the time? Am I the kind of person who likes to fight and kill all the time, and who would want to destroy a country and exterminate a race? This is a proper photography device, okay?"

"Whether we can capture all these classic scenes in a moment depends entirely on them! If you really have time to talk nonsense, you should hurry up and come and lend a hand to help us figure these things out. That's what's important."

"Otherwise, if it really causes a delay and such a memorable moment is not recorded, that would be terrible!"

These words absolutely struck a chord with Lao Luo.

Because it is foreseeable that everything that is about to happen, all these major and minor events, will inevitably leave a strong mark on the history of the world of Beijing. Every scene that happens afterward can definitely be called a historic moment!
Such an important moment, wouldn't it be a great pity if it weren't properly recorded so that future generations could admire it?
Therefore, it is clear that what Ximen Lang said is indeed reasonable.

Without a word, Lao Luo immediately put down everything he was doing and helped Ximen Lang set up the professional photography equipment with the principal.

Then, the two were deeply impressed by the professionalism of the equipment.

Let's take this incredibly simple aerial photography as an example.

How were aerial photographs taken in the past?

They even deployed a helicopter to follow and film!
It's incredibly expensive, not to mention that helicopters aren't easy to control, and the footage might not be clear, making it difficult to achieve the desired effect.

And now?

A small drone can solve the whole problem!
If all else fails, use two or three cameras; you'll always be able to get a clear shot and capture the scene you want!
It can even automatically follow and take pictures!

No human intervention is needed; just release it!

It's so simple, so convenient, and the footage is so clear—how could Lao Luo and the principal not be shocked?
I couldn't help but sigh.
"It seems that technology really can change lives."

Then, Lao Luo and the principal started to brainstorm.

"If this could be applied to cultural undertakings, it would be incredibly efficient! For one thing, it would save a huge amount of money on film stock every year! And if the films are of high quality, they could be shown in other countries alongside foreign films."

"Not only will it bring us a large amount of foreign exchange, but it will also allow us to seize the high ground in culture! If we can really seize this high ground, we can export our culture and promote our way of life abroad, just like the Americans."

"I can't even imagine how much tangible and intangible benefit this combination of measures will bring us!"

His words were so profound that they were like a thunderclap, leaving Ximen Lang, a man from later generations, completely stunned.
