707: Chapter 707 Again, Fans

As his voice fell, Li Yang also slowly raised his hand, politely reaching out toward Lu Dongni with a steady and calm posture, carrying a perfectly measured humility.

"Hello, Chairman Lu. Please forgive the intrusion of this visit."

This single "Hello, Chairman Lu" exploded in Lu Dongni's ears like a clap of thunder.

His entire body froze instantly, his pupils constricted sharply, and the excitement and agitation on his face solidified in an instant, replaced by a face full of disbelief and sudden realization.

Only at this moment did he completely understand why the face before him had felt so incredibly familiar just now.

Wasn't that Division Commander Li Yang, who repeatedly appeared in major media and official reports?!

As a leader in the entertainment industry, the Huanxing Group had its own subsidiary, "Huanxing Group," which specialized in biographies and positive-energy films and television.

Previously, he had indeed instructed his team multiple times to try and contact Li Yang through official channels, hoping to get authorization to turn his legendary experiences—cleaning up the Longlan Star Cluster, guarding the border, and promoting anti-corruption—into a Holographic Documentary Film that would shock the Empire.

To this end, the team had specifically written several planning proposals. Unfortunately, they had never been able to find a suitable channel for connection. He never expected that today, he would actually see this legendary figure here with his own eyes!

Coming back to his senses, Lu Dongni instantly transformed from a respectful chairman back into a fanatical "fan."

The muscles on his face trembled slightly with excitement as he almost stumbled forward, his hands tightly gripping Li Yang's outstretched hand, his knuckles turning slightly white from the force.

His voice carried an uncontrollable excitement, even cracking slightly, his tone filled with pure ecstasy.

"Division Commander Li! Heavens, it's really you! Welcome, welcome! I never dreamed I would have the chance to see you in person! I'm so excited, I'm truly a loyal fan of yours!"

His gaze was fixed tightly on Li Yang, his eyes filled with undisguised admiration, as if looking at an unreachable idol, with no trace left of the dignity and composure of a group chairman.

Li Yang was made somewhat between laughter and tears by Lu Dongni's extreme enthusiasm, even feeling a hint of embarrassment.

Over the years, serving in various parts of the Empire, he had met all sorts of people.

There were hostile forces who bore grudges and made things difficult for him, official colleagues who wanted to win him over or cling to him, and subordinates who were sycophantic and deliberately flattering.

But a "fan" who so unreservedly and directly expressed admiration was a first.

Looking at the almost flustered Lu Dongni before him, Li Yang was also momentarily amused. He could only gently return the handshake and speak softly to ease the atmosphere.

"Chairman Lu is too kind. We are just stopping by today to visit and learn a bit."

Yu Lingyue watched this scene from the side, a smile tugging at the corners of her mouth as she helped out.

"Chairman Lu, don't be too excited. Division Commander Li's visit this time is mainly to understand the operational model of our Lese Star Cluster's entertainment industry. Especially since your Huanxing Group is a leading enterprise, there is much worth learning from."

Only then did Lu Dongni slightly calm his excited mood. He quickly released his hand and wiped the thin sweat from his forehead caused by tension and excitement, his face still filled with uncontrollable joy.

"To have Division Commander Li visit in person is a tremendous honor for our Huanxing Group! Never mind learning from us; as long as Division Commander Li needs it, I can provide all the group's data, operational models, and industrial layouts without reservation!"

Hearing this, Li Yang was also caught between laughter and tears.

As Lu Dongni spoke, he hurriedly and respectfully invited Li Yang and Yu Lingyue to sit on the reception sofa. He then immediately pressed his communicator to have his secretary bring the highest grade of tea and snacks, bustling about without any air of a corporate giant.

He Dong and Pal stood behind Li Yang, glancing at each other, both unable to help clicking their tongues inwardly.

First the Speaker, and now the chairman of this leading group; their Division Commander's fan lineup was simply too luxurious.

After Lu Dongni sat down, his gaze remained fixed on Li Yang, the admiration in his eyes undisguised, and his tone carried an irrepressible eagerness.

"Division Commander Li, to tell you the truth, our group has long wanted to turn your deeds into a large-scale Holographic Documentary Film. Every experience of yours—cleaning up the Longlan Star Cluster, sweeping away corruption, and guarding the border—is full of positive energy. If it could be brought to the screen, it would definitely inspire the young people of the entire Empire! We even used many connections before to apply for a meeting with you, but unfortunately, we could never find the right channel. I didn't expect you to actually come in person today!"

Li Yang was somewhat surprised to hear this. He had heard of such things before, but he hadn't expected the other party to be one of those groups. He smiled and said,

"Chairman Lu is very thoughtful. I personally am nothing special, but if it can convey some positive values, I am not opposed to it."

In any case, this kind of documentary didn't require Li Yang to act in it personally; once his authorization was obtained, it could be produced.

"That's wonderful!"

Lu Dongni was instantly overjoyed, nearly jumping up from the sofa.

"With those words from Division Commander Li, I will definitely make this project the best it can be! I absolutely will not let down your trust!"

Seeing this, Yu Lingyue spoke up at the right time to interrupt the overly intense fan-meeting atmosphere, saying with a smile,

"Chairman Lu, let's not just focus on the excitement. Division Commander Li came today mainly to understand your group's core business on-site. Why don't you take us to visit the group's core areas and let Division Commander Li see the strength of your Huanxing Group for himself?"

"Right, right, right! Look at me, I got so excited I forgot the main business!"

Lu Dongni slapped his forehead and quickly stood up, making a respectful gesture of invitation.

"Division Commander Li, Speaker Yu, I will take you to visit our Cultural and Entertainment R&D Center, the Real-Scene Entertainment Base, and the Full-Chain Scheduling Center. I guarantee you will see everything!"

With that, Lu Dongni personally led the way, his excitement not diminishing in the slightest. He introduced the group's various businesses incessantly as they walked, his tone full of admiration for Li Yang.

He Dong, following behind, leaned in toward Pal and whispered under his breath,

"I've finally figured it out. Wherever our Division Commander goes, fans follow. This popularity is even higher than the big stars of the Lese Star Cluster."

Pal nodded unobtrusively, his gaze always alertly watching the surroundings, though a hint of a helpless smile couldn't help but appear in his eyes.
