Chapter 1128: A Date with the Dead
Mr. Shen has never been in contact with Xiao Ning, but from the report, he knows that this is a very emotional girl.
On weekdays, he doesn't talk too much, and always stands behind Ding Yihui.
But at this moment, this girl showed another side of herself.
"Actually, my grandfather was in poor health a long time ago. So I took a lot of videos and photos with my grandfather." Xiao Ning laughed, "Am I a very selfish person?"
She took out her mobile phone and faced the camera: "This is my grandpa. Does he look fierce? No? I think he looks very fierce. Before he was 5 years old, he would stare at me and I would cry..."
"This is my grandpa's birthday, this is my progress in the exam, this is when I enrolled in Lazy Seminary... This is what I can still find, everything about my grandpa... Are these enough?"
Xiao Ning showed the details of herself and her grandfather in front of the camera, followed by a round of sharp and fast editing, all the video and image data were exported, and then analyzed in depth, finally, a projection appeared on Xiao Ning in front of Ning.
"This is an image synthesized from all the video data. The sound, image, and habitual movements have been processed... Do you want to hear something from your grandpa?" There was a boy's voice next to it.
"No, I'm just..." Xiao Ning looked at the image with teary eyes, "No, I know it's fake, I know..."
"Is it really not necessary?" the male classmate asked.
The surrounding projections changed instantly, and a simple room full of old-fashioned furniture was superimposed on the space. Grandpa sat on the sofa, looked down at the newspaper, occasionally raised his head, looked at Xiao Ning, nodded with a smile, and then lowered his head again go.
Lifelike, it seems that the deceased is still there, with the same voice and smile as before.
"I...I've always wanted to hear from my grandpa, Xiao Ning, you are awesome! I'm proud of you!"
Seeing what the male student next to him was going to do, she raised her head and said almost sharply, "No! No! I don't want to hear it this way!"
Xiao Ning raised her hand and retracted her hands to the center. This seemed to be some manipulation gesture, and the entire projection was suddenly gathered in her palm, turning into a bright spot of light.
Then she pushed aside, and she threw the dot of light onto something that looked like a satellite. On the screen of the satellite, a loading progress bar was displayed, which flashed away, and then a message that looked a bit different appeared on the screen. The fierce old man was staring forward, as if he wanted to curse someone.
"My grandpa...he just has this expression..." Xiao Ning smiled, "Come on, let's test it."
A male student picked up the satellite, which was a little bigger than a watermelon, walked to the side, and said, "Ready to launch the satellite..."
Then, he stuffed the satellite into the ejection port on the side, and the satellite was ejected into the space outside the window, and the male student said: "The test satellite launch is complete!"
Outside the window, the satellite slowly unfurls two giant solar panels.
Then several nozzles sprayed a few times, adjusted its posture, and flew into the distance.
"The deployment of the solar panels has been completed, the attitude and flight trajectory adjustments have been completed, the test satellite has been successfully launched, and the ground test is ready to begin."
When he saw this, Mr. Shen couldn't complain.
Launching a satellite, for them... just throwing it out the window?
Is this an experiment on the Silence?
The resources possessed by these lazy seminary brats are really enviable!
Then, the ground test session, what is it?
The screen changed again, and Boss Shen looked more familiar with this place.
It was the former No. 2 Attached Institute, and now a hotel near Xinghui Aerospace. Mr. Shen passed by this place many times.
The screen turned to a balcony on the second floor again. Xiao Ning turned on her phone with her head down, and opened an app, which showed a time: 20:23.
And now it is 20:15.
"Hurry up, hurry up, stop dawdling...Ding Yihui, that's an offering!"
A young man who was eating an apple jumped up in fright, and almost ate the half-eaten apple in his hand, "Didn't you say it's a lot, can you eat as you like?"
"But you have already eaten more than ten!" Xiao Ning showed another side of himself, "Hurry up and work! Work!"
Several young people jumped up quickly, setting up the altar table in a hurry.
Mr. Shen looked a little amused, these teenage brats seemed a bit out of tune with things like burning incense and offering fruits.
When I lit the incense, I even coughed because of the smoke.
It is obviously an aerospace company, and it is obviously a high-tech industry, but it is strange to engage in these traditional things.
A few people hurriedly set up a simple altar, some apples, and a chicken.
An apple was half eaten.
The time was passing, and it was already 20:22. Several people raised their heads and looked up at the sky.
The sky in the summer night was extremely bright, and a Milky Way crossed the sky, which should have attracted everyone's attention.
But in cities full of light pollution and cloudy atmosphere, it is not so easy to see the night sky.
A few young people looked up in a daze, but they couldn't find the location.
Xiao Ning picked up the phone and pointed it at the sky. With the help of the various sensors of the phone, it seemed to "see through" the light pollution and the atmosphere, showing the bright starry sky and endless galaxy.
"Here!" Xiao Ning found that eye-catching spot of light in the Milky Way.
Among the thousands of stars, there is one that belongs to her.
"Where is it? I can't see it..." A tall male student looked up at the sky.
"Nonsense, if you can see it with the naked eye, it would be weird! It's a satellite, not a star!"
"Come on, come on!" As soon as they finished complaining, they yelled together.
At this time, the picture is divided into two, one side is the picture in space, a lonely satellite slowly floating in space, reflecting faint starlight, dark and deep.
On one side are a few young people looking up at the night sky with blank eyes.
At this moment, a ray of light suddenly communicated the two images.
A ray of light shone from the side, hitting the huge wings of the satellite.
Almost at the same time, a beam of light converged on the balcony, illuminating the altar as if it were daytime.
This trick again! Sun reflections!
Perhaps a "parasol" satellite reflects sunlight from outside the Earth's shadow, and then reflects it to the ground through the satellite's mirror-like wings.
In fact, this light beam is not really as bright as during the day, but it is already particularly eye-catching in this dark night.
Looking from the side, a beam of light shines directly on the balcony on the second floor of the hotel from the starry sky, as if there is really a gate of heaven, connecting the two worlds.
On one side is the empty outer space like nothingness, the satellite floating quietly, and the somewhat ferocious old man displayed on it.
On one side are altars, candles and offerings, as well as excited teenagers.
Xiao Ning bowed her head devoutly in prayer and murmured.
And the two images are slowly zooming in, and the somewhat ferocious old man shown on the satellite gradually smiles.
Mr. Shen was dumbfounded.
What these children did this time was really extreme.
For a long time, the lazy gods have been practical and technical.
But these children, what they did this time, completely abandoned practicality, but had a sense of ceremony.
Think of the dead above "Heaven," and the sun cast down from the sky.
Is there any use?
useless.
That little sunlight can't be used to dry clothes.
However, what kind of feelings will those who pay homage to the dead feel in their hearts when they really see a ray of light shining down from the sky?
Do you feel that there is indeed such a person watching you from the distant sky?
Not to mention, every moment, when you look up, there is actually someone who once loved you, silently guarding you above your head.
Really, right off the top of your head.
Alone in a foreign land, on the road of hard work.
Tired, wronged, want to find someone to cry.
Hold your head up and there it is.
All the time, never leave.
Chinese people don't believe in God or religion, but at this moment, even Mr. Shen, who doesn't believe in anything, is a little tempted.
After a while, the sun faded away, and Xiao Ning raised her head, but tears were streaming down her face.
"Grandpa, this is what I do, I don't know if you will like it."
"Here, look." Beside, Ding Yihui touched Xiao Ning, Xiao Ning raised his head, and saw a little bit of starlight suddenly appearing in the sky. Looking down, smiled slightly, and then slowly extended a thumbs up.
When he saw this, behind Mr. Shen, the secretary muttered softly: "This special effect is made..."
"This is no special effect!" Mr. Shen was about to cry!
Didn't these guys hint at it before? You can make this synthetic image do whatever you want.
I thought it was just a small detail at first, but now it seems that it is not the case at all.
These guys, somehow, projected a 3D projection onto the earth from space!
Outside the window, many people who were in a hurry saw this scene. They raised their heads in surprise, looked at the ferocious old man in the sky, and gave him a thumbs up.
Seeing this, Mr. Shen swallowed again: "It seems that the whole city can see..."
Just thinking about it, Mr. Shen feels that this thing is really subversive in the advertising industry.
These brats actually use such precious resources for this kind of thing?
crazy! Really crazy!
Lazy god, this is not enough for basic necessities, food, housing and transportation, are you planning to forcefully enter the funeral industry?
Thinking of this, Mr. Shen really couldn't laugh or cry.
Especially at the end, the typed subtitles read: "The Lantern of Tianhe, the Memorial of Starlight, Xinghui Aerospace will open 100 free seats to the public for the first time, and it will be released on the Ghost Festival. Please sign up to join."
The video ends here. The style of the video this time is weird. Thinking about it carefully, it still makes people shiver. It really is not the usual style of lazy gods.
But the power contained in it is self-evident.
And these brats, taking advantage of the opportunity of the Hungry Ghost Festival and the theme of "sacrifice", this counterattack really convinced Mr. Shen.
