Chapter 43: Chapter 40: I Hope You Can Still See the Sunrise (Extra)
Qin Zhao turned his head and saw a man’s body folding from the waist up, unable to straighten, forced to slowly walk past them with great difficulty.
This seemed to be a congenital spinal deformity.
"How come there are so many disabled people here? I think disabled people just waste social resources, after all, they can’t contribute to labor and still need care from others."
It was that grating voice again.
In the team, there was a big internet celebrity who did extreme sports, named Shi Yunkai, with strong muscles and a decent look, but he seemed to have that affliction for social boasting.
He had to show off in front of a few pretty girls, thus he made grandiose statements about the disabled and expressed his misguided thoughts.
"I also think they are a waste of social resources and pretty scary too."
"The state should implement euthanasia for them so society can develop better."
After Shi Yunkai said those words, surprisingly a lot of celebrities agreed, their looks towards the disabled filled with disdain.
"Why do you think they are a waste of social resources? Everyone has the right to live; mind your own business instead of criticizing others."
Qin Zhao could no longer bear to listen and spoke coldly.
Shi Yunkai didn’t expect someone to rebut him, and with a self-righteous tone, he said, "Did I say something wrong? What good can these people provide for society? I earn so much money every year, pay taxes to the state, and it goes to support these people who live off the system, why?"
"It’s true, I pay hundreds of thousands in taxes each year. Speaking of which, we still support those disabled and poor people; shouldn’t they be calling us mom and dad when they see us?"
Said a finely dressed female celebrity, giggling.
Qin Zhao pointed to a man in the distance without arms, "He is a veteran whose hands were blown off by bombs on the battlefield. Without him, do you think you could enjoy your peaceful lives today?
Even if others contributed nothing, by virtue of simply being human, you should respect other lives, even if their bodies are impaired, instead of arrogantly thinking you are superior."
Suddenly, it went silent, and no one spoke.
Not because they realized their mistakes—after all, one’s values can’t be changed by Qin Zhao’s few words—they were simply speechlessly rebutted by Qin Zhao.
Shi Yunkai’s face showed embarrassment, and he glared at Qin Zhao covertly before saying to the others, "The scenery here is not bad, let’s go for a walk."
"Sure, they’ll take a while to clean up, let’s go."
In an instant, everyone had left, leaving only Qin Zhao.
Clearly, on her first day, Qin Zhao had been ostracized.
Qin Zhao was not concerned about others’ opinions about her; she was merely curious about what was inside Mang Mountain that gave her a palpable feeling of unease.
Su Xiaotong had gone to help the people from a small factory move stuff and now walked over.
"Zhaozhao, the crew has bought this place; does that mean these disabled people will be out of jobs? I’ll go talk to the director; maybe he can change the location."
Before Qin Zhao could respond, she ran off to find the director.
Soon, Qin Zhao heard the director’s scolding.
"Su Xiaotong, you and your artist can endure it, but have you considered others? We’re here to make a show, not really for outdoor survival.
Making those big names stay in straw huts, who isn’t going to create trouble? If they terminate their contracts with me, who’s responsible? Are you?"
Qin Zhao approached Director Li Zhen and said, "Then change the filming location, I don’t think the Feng Shui of Mang Mountain is any good, and accidents are very likely to occur during shooting."
"Feng Shui is not good?"
Li Zhen looked at Qin Zhao askance, "I paid you to work, not to create issues. Since when did you start studying mysticism?"
"If you don’t want to suffer huge losses, you’d best heed my advice."
"Are you instructing me on how to do my job?"
Li Zhen did not have the temper of the last TV drama director, he was a resolute person, once he made a decision, he disliked others’ objections.
If your status was significant, that would be another matter.
Clearly, Qin Zhao was not in his good graces, Li Zhen snorted coldly, "If you don’t want to shoot, then leave with Su Xiaotong. It makes no difference to me whether you’re here or not."
Su Xiaotong had secured this variety show slot thanks to the resources from Guanghua Entertainment.
Li Zhen considered that Qin Zhao often trended online, which is why he agreed.
"Zhaozhao, let’s stay."
Su Xiaotong, pulling Qin Zhao, sighed.
The contract had been signed, withdrawing now would mean paying a penalty.
Even if they left, the crew would still shoot here, so she could not help those disabled.
However, recalling what Qin Zhao had just mentioned, Su Xiaotong couldn’t help asking her, "You said the Feng Shui here is bad, did you detect something unusual?"
Qin Zhao nodded and pointed at the tallest mountain.
"There’s something odd there, but I’m not sure why."
Su Xiaotong’s face changed, "Could it cause a casualty?"
Qin Zhao didn’t answer; she saw Shi Yunkai and the others approaching from a distance and couldn’t help but sneer.
"Look at that mountain, soaring into the clouds with a flat top, it’s simply the best place to watch the sunrise. Since others haven’t arrived yet, I will take you to see the sunrise tomorrow morning."
Shi Yunkai pointed at the tallest mountain and addressed the three beautiful female stars beside him.
"That mountain is so tall, feels tiring to climb."
"Consider it a workout, you’ll definitely find it worthwhile if you see the sunrise."
"Do we need to get up very early to see the sunrise?"
"There’s nothing to do at night anyway, just go to bed early tonight."
A few people crossed in front of Qin Zhao, and noticing her staring, Shi Yunkai said, "Miss Qin, do you also want to see the sunrise? But we already have four people here, I might not be able to look after everyone.
In these deep mountains, if we encounter any wild animals, it might be dangerous.
Wait until tomorrow when the security personnel are here, then you can go watch the sunrise with your manager."
Why was Qin Zhao staring at him?
Of course, it was to observe his facial features and then realize he was heading further down the path to his doom.
"Tch, who cares," Su Xiaotong said, "Just a lousy sunrise, what’s so great about it?"
"Then you guys just stay here," one of the female stars said, "Anyway, I don’t want to hang out with you guys, people of different statuses have nothing to talk about."
That was a dig implying Qin Zhao was a low-grade celebrity.
Qin Zhao just glanced at her indifferently, not bothering to respond.
Hopefully, these people would still be able to see the sun rise the day after tomorrow.
