Chapter 449: Chapter 447 The Shocking First Pavilion

“Damn, there are way too many people…”

At 5:46 a.m., outside the square’s gates, a sea of people extended as far as the eye could see, like surging waves of heads.

Cao Lifeng’s mouth hung open, the cone in his hand had been scraped half off by a stranger, he wanted to say something, but in the blink of an eye, the person was swept away into the crowd and disappeared.

Cao Lifeng: “…”

This scene exceeded Cao Lifeng’s comprehension, making him truly understand the meaning of “drumming that pierces the sky, firecrackers in unison, red flags waving, a sea of people.”

Twenty thousand tickets were sold online, and twenty to thirty thousand were available for sale in person. Some people came after learning they could see the 3D naked-eye effect live, while others who had missed out online rose early to buy them.

There was no helping it, less than half an hour after the news was released, tickets were sold out. Many people at school or work were clueless until it was too late, full of regret, they had no choice but to arrive early to fight for tickets.

The scene was akin to the elderly battling it out for discounted eggs at a supermarket sale, the only difference being that over eighty percent of those present were young people.

From this, it’s evident that the frenzy of grabbing bargains knows no age.

“Don’t rush, don’t rush, everyone line up! Buddy, don’t climb over the fence! Don’t climb over the fence, hey, be careful!” the security guard was shouting himself hoarse.

Yao Jun, not far away, swallowed with excitement at the mass of people, so many that he couldn’t even get inside himself.

Lin Chang frowned, having set the opening time for six o’clock precisely to avoid this, since most people don’t like getting up early. He never expected that it wouldn’t matter, that those who were meant to come still showed up.

He sighed and resignedly said, “Let’s open the gates early, blocking them here is too dangerous, if something happens, it wouldn’t be good, just let them onto the square.”

In front of the first venue was a large square, and only beyond that the main gates. Currently, thousands were jammed in front of the gates, but by opening up to the square people could spread out, preventing any accidents.

Yao Jun nodded, clearly worried about the same issue, knowing that if something happened, not only would the opening be ruined, but the following days would be difficult as well. He immediately pulled out his phone and informed the relevant staff, “When opening the gates, get security to focus and maintain order, we must prevent a stampede.”

“Understood!”

Across from him, receiving instructions, they immediately began directing security to regulate the crowd’s behavior.

“Stop pushing, we’re opening the gates early, opening early!”

“Opening early?”

“What? Early?”

“Hurry up, I’m exhausted!”

“Let me in to take a look, be good.”

Upon hearing that the gates were opening, Cao Lifeng and the others became excited, and likewise, the previously ecstatic crowd gradually calmed down and lined up again under the guidance of the staff.

When the clock struck 5:50 a.m., the gates clicked.

They opened.

“Charge!”

“Brothers, follow me and charge!”

“Don’t run! Don’t run!”

“To the ticket check! To the ticket check!”

“Be safe, be safe!”

…

Cao Lifeng wiped the sweat from his forehead; it was almost June, and the weather was getting hot in the early morning. The intense jostling only added to the heat, soaking his shirt through: “Phew! Grandma’s legs, we finally got in! That was intense.”

Ge Liyang adjusted his glasses that had nearly been knocked off, still shaken; he had anticipated it might be a hit, but never to this extent. They had almost lost their lives in the crowd.

Fortunately, nothing went wrong. The moment the gates opened, the security guards brought out their shields, which helped control the flow of people. After going through ticket check and entering the square, it wasn’t so crowded anymore.

Just to be safe, Lin Chang had called the police ahead of time…

Indeed, judging by its size on the ground alone, the club was imposing, having claimed to represent an investment of over ten billion. With many areas still under construction or kept in their natural state, one could only imagine the scale.

Cao Lifeng waved from the front: “Stop taking photos, hurry into the first venue! The Rainforest, the desert, and such can wait till tomorrow, the ticket lasts two days anyway.”

Considering the extensive content, many could spend an entire day just at the Hunting Grounds. Knowing that some might not have enough time to experience it all, Bi Fang had thoughtfully introduced two-day and three-day tickets, with corresponding discounts, embodying the epitome of a conscientious business.

“Yes, yes, yes!”

Only then did everyone react and surged towards the first exhibition hall directly opposite.

Some people stopped in the middle of the huge square where a fountain was gushing, gazing up at the immense Mount Everest marble sculpture.

Their cameras crazily snapped photos.

At the same time, Bi Fang also received a video sent by Yao Jun, and when he opened it, he instantly recognized the familiar square and the massive crowd and knew right away where it was.

“So many people, nothing went wrong, did it?”

“Don’t worry, with me and Lin Chang here watching, everything is fine. Everyone’s gone in now. I can’t wait to see their reactions to the first exhibition hall, arms-akimbo.jpg.”

The main design of the first exhibition hall was proposed by Yao Jun himself, from the oil paintings to the giant screens, which was why he was so excited.

“Just be extra careful, anyway.”

“OK.jpg”

“When are you heading out?”

“Right away, just got up. Gonna wash up, grab Leonardo and head out. There’s not much to prepare this time, except I need to take extra care of Leonardo.”

“Blush.jpg, think you could take me along next time?”

“Get lost, unless you also become an international star one day,” Bi Fang laughed as he typed the teasing reply.

Thinking about it, he had only ever taken someone with him this once. The Edinburgh incident didn’t count; that was commercialized and open to everyone.

Leonardo was different. Taking him along was actually for Bi Fang’s own sake. The number of his die-hard fans in the country had basically saturated, and even if he attracted casual fans, they couldn’t possibly wait around for a live stream every day.

But abroad was different; there was still a lot of potential territory to develop. Bringing Leonardo along this time was really taking a shortcut.

They would mutually benefit each other, and only with safety as assured as possible would Bi Fang have agreed to it.

“I’m gonna get my dad to develop a cinema chain, striving.jpg.”

“Envious of the second-generation rich.”

“Envious of the first-generation rich.”

“Get lost.”

Yao Jun smirked, put away his phone, and made his way into the square. It wasn’t yet six o’clock, so the doors of the first exhibition hall hadn’t opened yet. He slipped in through a side path.

The inside of the hall was still pitch black, devoid of any light.

He hid in the shadows of the corner, watching as the door quietly opened a crack, then bright specks of light flooded in, illuminating the space in front of the door.

Cao Lifeng cautiously peeked out his head.

It wasn’t fully light outside yet, and large curtains had been hung around the first exhibition hall. The range illuminated by the doorway light was limited.

Darkness.

“Is this the first exhibition hall with the screen?”

The information leaked online was obviously not revealed casually but targeted by Yao Jun and Lin Chang. Therefore, the netizens only knew about some of the content – the first exhibition hall was vast, with a big screen.

What it actually looked like inside, nobody knew.

Just as Cao Lifeng was carefully taking a step forward, he suddenly felt a force push him from behind. Someone had pushed him hard.

Caught off guard, Cao Lifeng staggered into the hall. As he turned around to glare at the person with no manners.

Click.

The lights turned on in that instant, and huge oil paintings explosively appeared in front of everyone’s pupils.

The crowd slowly flowed in, their pupils gradually dilating.

Cao Lifeng’s pupils dilated, his mouth slightly open.

“This, this is too cool, right?”
