Translator: Doggotranslation

The villagers of Luhua Village were much more knowledgeable than before. In the past whenever the villagers saw a car in the village, they would be completely amazed by it for half a day. But nowadays, the villagers of Luhua village would be able to recognize most of the car brands. Even a limousine could be seen at the gate of the amusement park every once in a while. Therefore, if it was not a luxury car, it would lose the interest of onlookers.

In terms of the population structure of Luhua village, the elderly and the children that were left behind were no longer the main populations of the village. Many young people, who used to go out for work, had returned to the village and lived around the amusement park. Some went straight to work for the amusement park, and others started to set up their own small transportation businesses.

Zhou Yu and Zhou Fu, the two best people in the village, finally revitalized the village. New houses had been built up in the village in the past two years, life began to become much better, and the most important thing was that the young people gradually returned to the village, the village was now teeming with life, it no longer felt like a rundown village.

However, recently, the knowledge of the villagers of Luhua village has been improved again. It was because many strange foreigners suddenly started to come to Luhua Village. There was no doubt that they came here for the amusement park, but the reason was still unclear at the moment.

Although it was the foreign media, they still could not escape the iron rule of ‘Reporters are not allowed to enter the amusement park’, and they were all blocked out of the gate. The Chinese journalists who were traveling with them could only reveal a wry smile on their faces and explain to their colleagues that this place was completely different from the general amusement parks and was quite strict with reporters.

“Oh, my god. Isn’t an amusement park supposed to be a place that always welcomes their guests? How could they be so resistant to journalists? Did I enter the military restricted area? ”

A female foreign journalist didn’t understand it at all. But the reporters, who often came here, were very clear that the amusement park itself actually still very welcomed reporters. But the amusement park owner Zhou Yu was very strange. That was, he did not like to show up in front of the media. That was why there was such a rule.

So far, only a handful of media outlets have been allowed in, and most of the news has been written by visitors on the Internet.

This time, this media frenzy was coming from the fashion world. After all, that plagiarism incident has become an extremely popular topic. The organizer of the contest has even personally sent someone to the amusement park to find Zhou Yu to inquire about the incident. If the original designer really existed, it would be very shocking news.

However, even the organizer of the contest was also blocked from the amusement park.

Zhou Yu didn’t bother to talk to them at all, whether it was the domestic reporters or the foreign reporters.

In the past, when faced with such a media frenzy, Zhou Fu’s daily routine was to greet them with a smiling face, constantly apologize on behalf of Zhou Yu, and then convey Zhou Yu’s messages. As for those, who wanted to have a face-to-face interview, sorry, not a chance.

But this time, it seemed that the same method would not work on those people. The determination of fashion journalists to find the truth was too great to be fooled by Zhou Yu’s explanations. Moreover, in order to meet with Zhou Yu, the only one, who knew the truth, the investigators of the contest organizers even used official connections.

First, they found the city leader, but it was no use, it was still Zhou Fu, who came out to answer their questions. Then they went straight to the provincial capital. Zhou Fu did not know what the people from the provincial capital government were thinking, they actually approved the request. This time, Zhou Fu felt that his head ached a lot.

At this critical moment, when the amusement park’s underground project was still in the approval process, they could not afford to offend the people from the government, Therefore, he could only find Zhou Yu, hoping that they could make an exception and see this investigator.

Zhou Yu was also helpless. Is it really that necessary to be so persistent? Even if they met him, the answer would not change. Where was he going to find those fashion designers for them? However, this investigator was not a reporter. She was just here to confirm the truth, so actually, there was no problem to make an exception.

As a result, a blonde girl from Germany was able to enter the residential area of the amusement park.

After entering the residential area, Lina was quickly attracted by the unique style of the villas, and she couldn’t help taking out her mobile phone to take pictures of each building, at the same time, she was also constantly exclaiming with amazement, “Oh my god, it’s so beautiful, it’s just like art! The people who are able to live and work here are simply the luckiest people in the world. It is like they are living in a painting.”

Lina’s Chinese was pretty good, but her compliment made Zhou Fu a little bit confused. Is it really that good? It was just the villa that was built from the designs that no one knew where Boy Yu got it from, some of them even made people feel very uncomfortable, for example, the Illusory Villa.

Not only the building itself was full of weirdness and distortions, but the decoration inside was also the same. After looking at it for a long time, some people would not even be able to work properly. Just like Zen villa, they were not suitable for regular people to live in.

When he saw the design drawings before, he even had a heated discussion with Zhou Yu, because he couldn’t see what the design was for, it looked completely like someone had just randomly drawn something for fun. However, Zhou Yu was someone, who liked to have fun, so even if Zhou Fu argued with him several times, he still insisted on doing it.

However, the villas that Zhou Fu was totally dissatisfied with, made this German girl exclaim in amazement constantly. It was as if she had totally forgotten why she came here. She was constantly taking pictures of those strange villas everywhere.

Helplessly, Zhou Fu could only remind her, “Miss. Lina, if you like the scenery here, I can arrange for you to live in as a friend for a few days. Now it is time to talk about your business here. You have to know that, my boss had to accept this investigation because of official reasons, he is not in a good mood.”

Hearing that, Lina finally recovered from her indulgence in artistic architecture, and apologized, “I’m so sorry, I’m totally attracted by these wonderful buildings... At first, I had some doubts about the plagiarism, but seeing these, I was inclined to believe Mr. Zhou. ”

Although architecture and clothing were different industries, being able to produce such artistic architecture meant that there were very talented artists working for Zhou Yu. Compared with the vague reasons Xiao Yuanxie had given to her, obviously, the possibility that the original designer was indeed someone from the amusement park was much higher.

However, this was only a possibility after all. Only when she found the original designers and found solid evidence would she completely believe them.

“Mr. Zhou Fu, before I meet Mr. Zhou Yu, I want to ask you a question. You said that those designers are not willing to appear in front of the world, so, do they all live in those villas?”

When walking in the residential area, Lina saw some people living in some villas, but they all looked very young. So she thought that the designers should be among those people. If this was the case, then it made sense why journalists were strictly forbidden to enter the park because artists did not like to be disturbed.

“This... I don’t know. The only thing I know is that these people are the Qin Zhuan studio’s employees, who were recruited by Zhou Yu himself. There are no costume or fashion designers amongst them, only a few animators, but they have not reached a master level. ”

Zhou Fu really couldn’t answer this question, who knows if there were the original Qin Zhuan studio’s employees hiding amongst these people. After all, they were recruited by boy Yu himself.

Perhaps, this was how Boy Yu was going to secretly move all the people from the two mysterious studios into the amusement park?
