There was no other particular reason for bringing my parents here; they just wanted to see it for themselves.
Before coming, they knew today was a big day for Tianyu Group, so they didn't stay long.
After exchanging a few words with Su Yi, they urged him to get busy.
Then, Yue Ling took them to tour the island that belonged to their son.
Yue Ling was clearly very willing to do this.
Even picking up Su Yi's parents was something Yue Ling volunteered for.
Although it was their first meeting, it was clear that she had already earned a lot of goodwill from the elderly couple.
So much so that after learning about their relationship, Su Yi's mother specifically pulled him aside and quietly asked him when he and Yue Ling were getting married, saying that such a good girl couldn't be snatched away by someone else.
It completely stumped Su Yi.
He really wanted to say that the last person who dared to flirt with Yue Ling now had grass growing on their entire family's graves.
Moreover, he and Yue Ling had already registered their marriage.
But this was not easy to say.
If he really said that, his mother would probably immediately think about when he went home to get his household registration book.
...
Of the quotas Su Yi gave to Kyushu, except for one hundred that belonged to Kyushu itself, the other two hundred were distributed quite evenly by Kyushu.
Many countries sent representatives.
Because of the limited quotas, there were naturally no media from any other countries here.
Only a few official media outlets from Kyushu were qualified to go to the island.
This was only after Kyushu Official had consulted with Tianyu Group in advance.
If Tianyu Group had not agreed, then there would be no media on the island now.
Fewer media outlets, but that did not mean the inauguration ceremony was small in scale.
From the moment the Kyushu media outlets arrived on the island, a global live broadcast had already begun.
The prestige of the official media, coupled with Tianyu Group, a trending topic on the internet recently, quickly attracted a large number of viewers.
Regarding how long it took to build Penglai Island, there had already been a heated debate online in the past few days.
Now that the live broadcast on the island had started, the live stream chat naturally became a scene of renewed debate.
Although the official knew that this island was built by Tianyu Group in three days, since Tianyu Group didn't say anything, they naturally wouldn't go out of their way to explain, letting the audience debate it.
But as the live camera followed the reporters deeper into the island, the debate quickly turned into various exclamations.
Leaving everything else aside, the scenery on this island is truly beautiful!
Indeed, blue skies and white clouds, crystal clear water, not a speck of pollution visible. If it could be opened for vacation, I'd want to go see it.
Dream on. Didn't you see what Tianyu Group's official website said? This island will be one of the benefits for Tianyu Group employees in the future, and it is not currently considering external opening.
I have a friend who works at Tianyu Group, and it's true. He even showed me the company's latest employee benefits table, and it includes information about Penglai Island. All Tianyu Group employees can vacation on the island for one month each year, bringing up to three family members, with travel and accommodation fully covered. Moreover, this is Tianyu Group's headquarters, and employees working at the headquarters can live there long-term. After a certain number of years of service, they will even be allocated housing. Do you see the other buildings on the island besides the headquarters building? Most of them are residential buildings, allocated to employees. Schools, hospitals, and other facilities will be built later, and it won't be long before this place becomes a fully equipped city.
I don't recommend Tianyu Group giving employees such benefits, because our company doesn't.
Sour grapes, I'm so jealous.
When Tianyu Group was recruiting, I perfectly met all the requirements! I originally wanted to go, but our boss specifically came to talk to me, saying that Tianyu Group's benefits were so good that it must be a scam, and I actually believed his nonsense! What a stupid boss, I'm going to work early!
Just asking, are there any insiders who can tell me when Tianyu Group's next recruitment will be? No other meaning, I just want to contribute to Tianyu Group.
Just say you want a luxurious sea-view room.
Speaking of which, this island is leased by Tianyu Group, so it's not considered our Kyushu territory, right? Wouldn't going there be like going abroad? Do I need a passport? I specifically asked yesterday, and there's no Penglai Island passport.
I don't know, but I heard from a friend who works at their company that it seems no passport is needed at all. They fly directly with military transport planes.
To be honest, if no passport, visa, or any other extra documentation is required, then besides being far away, going to Penglai Island is actually more convenient than going to some places domestically, right?
Hard to say, but for now, it seems not very necessary. Both the official and Tianyu Group have tacitly agreed that employees can enter and exit freely without any documents.
...
There were too many points of discussion about Tianyu Group, plus it was an official media live stream.
Soon, the number of people in several different live streams exceeded five million.
And as time went on, the inauguration ceremony of Tianyu Group's headquarters finally reached the stage where it was about to begin.
The live broadcast perspective also shifted from various areas on the island to the main building of Tianyu Group's headquarters, which served as a landmark.
The building, over two thousand meters high, was almost impossible to see the top of from the ground.
The other surrounding high-rise buildings were at least fifteen hundred meters tall.
Being among them, it felt like instantly transitioning from a scenic island into a first-tier metropolis made of a steel forest.
Especially, the photographer responsible for this perspective specifically provided a low-angle shot looking up from the ground.
Immediately, the viewers watching the live broadcast were filled with exclamations.
And just then, in the sky among the tall buildings, an extremely futuristic-looking aircraft suddenly appeared and hovered in the air.
For a moment, even the photographer was stunned in place.
The landing craft did not stay long at the airport just now; it dropped off people and left.
Therefore, not many people saw it.
Even the on-site photographer was like this, not to mention the audience watching the live broadcast online.
The already dense barrage of comments seemed to be cut off by some mysterious force the moment the landing craft appeared in the shot.
Leaving a large blank space across the entire screen.
A moment later, a barrage of comments even denser than before floated out, instantly filling the entire live stream screen.
Most of them were exclamations like "Holy cow" and "What is that thing?"
This fervent barrage reached its climax as the landing craft slowly descended in a stable posture, finally landing smoothly at the building's entrance.
Especially when the hatch opened, and six Power Armors and dozens of Sentinel-3 Heavy Exoskeletons jogged out, lining up on both sides of the road.
Finally, the moment Su Yi walked out of the landing craft holding Yue Ling's hand, the audience's exclamations reached their peak.
