Chapter 290: Conscription (3)
Feng Zixi understands that he is now going to become the protagonist of a military-themed blockbuster written and directed by the US military and performed by the South Korean army.\\ The United States and South Korean militaries want to portray Feng Zixi as a model for a soldier, and his words and deeds during the military exercises, as well as all the training subjects and exercises he participated in, will be exposed by the media reporters present one by one.
The US military urgently needs to improve its own image, but if it is played by the US military, it will certainly not be recognized and will not have much effect. But Zixi is different, but now she is the hottest star in South Korea and even in Asia, and her influence has penetrated into the most important consumer groups in South Korea, especially among the more radical young people, and her influence is especially huge.
Moreover, Zixi himself has titles such as 'charity star' and 'love artist', and he is a graduate student of Seoul National University, which makes him have a high support rate among the general public in South Korea. As long as the U.S. military and the South Korean army are not too stupid, then through the most exciting and exciting war scenes, Zixi can definitely be used to boost the goodwill of the U.S. military among the South Korean people.
What benefits can Feng Zixi get from this? Upgrading the military rank is only one of them, and the other is that through overwhelming publicity, Zixi will definitely be able to push Zixi to the highest peak of the Korean entertainment industry in a short period of time, not to mention the strong support of the South Korean government, Feng Zixi has become the top superstar in the entertainment industry, and has become a "national treasure actor", which is already a certainty. It is to each according to what he needs and to each his advantage.
Feng Zixi knew that he had no choice, because this matter was not a matter for Uncle Ederson and Cousin Moncente to ask him, it had risen to a major matter of national interest. The United States wants to consolidate its position in the Asia-Pacific region, and South Korea and Japan are the bridgeheads to contain China and Russia.
The US Seventh Fleet, which departed from Japan, could almost paralyze the command system of the People's Army by firing a few Tomahawks, and it was not much more difficult than fighting Iraq. As for the millions of troops loyal to the Kim family that North Korea has been propagating, they don't even have a decent torpedo boat,. The U.S. military is still most afraid of the Chinese army, and if it is forced to start a war with the Chinese army on land, the U.S. military will not even have the self-confidence to draw the war. Therefore, the main purpose of the Americans has always been to intimidate by force. But as long as the Chinese are tough, the Americans will shrink their eggs, find a stupid big Japan to come out and provoke, and save some face.
Because of various state of affairs, the South Korean base is absolutely not allowed to be lost by the US military. However, it is also necessary to take into account the wishes of the South Korean people, otherwise the South Korean government will not be able to cope with the surging situation. This is the plan to create a star soldier, so that the big star Zixi, who also wins the favor of the Korean people, will become the protagonist, so that the opposition of the South Korean people will be reduced, and the goal of the United States and South Korea will be achieved.
"Looks like I have no objections." Feng Zixi also understands his situation. It's just the U.S. Army Command in South Korea, or just Uncle Ederson and Cousin Moncent, he can be sapipe, after all, there is no precedent, Feng Zixi can pat his ass and leave at any time, go to Hong Kong or Canada, the United States has no way at all. But now that the South Korean government and the Pentagon are involved, Feng Zixi can't just walk away, unless he never returns to South Korea, otherwise he will definitely be listed as persona non grata.
Uncle Edson nodded and said, "It's true that there is no room for you to negotiate, but you should not only look at your own interests, but also take into account the interests of your family." ”
"Family interests?"
Cousin Monsente said, "That's right, isn't Aunt Aina's 'Union Bank of America Holdings' in negotiations with South Korea's 'Asiana Airlines' for an acquisition agreement?" As long as this is passed, I believe that this acquisition will be completed soon, and the Korean side will be willing to pay the price. Because without the presence of the US military, they are more afraid of the North Koreans and Chinese than we are. In addition, Aunt Aina is running for the Senate of New York State, which is now in its most important stage. Your participation in this exercise will definitely be transmitted back to the mainland by our media, which will be beneficial to Aunt Aina's election. At the end of the day, I've just been the commander of the Osan base for two months, and you don't want my cousin to be kicked out right away, right? ”
"That's right, as long as the Osan base is successfully expanded, Moncente has a good chance to continue to take over the base, and the rank will definitely be promoted to brigadier general. That's why I want you to participate, something that is beneficial to both families, and you, as the future heir of the family, should also do your part. ”
"Alright! I agreed. Feng Zixi nodded helplessly, and couldn't allow him not to agree. But I still have a job shooting, so you're not going to let me go to the barracks and get training right away, are you? ”
Cousin Monsente said: "You still have one month to arrange your work, you will officially enter the camp in January, and after two months of training, a joint military exercise will be held, and the exercise will last for a week." Your main subject is flying helicopter gunships for reconnaissance and support missions, which you have trained in training camps in New Jersey and should not have much of a problem. ”
Feng Zixi looked down and thought about it, one month was enough time to complete the filming of the TV series and movies in his hands. However, in this way, the promotion of the movie may be in vain, and I am a little sorry for the two uncles Zeng Zhiwei and Tony Leung. But now there is no way to do it, who let the US military itself be ignorant, and actually asked an artist to come out to save their public opinion.
"Don't worry, the barracks where you are trained is at this Osan Air Base, and you will also be directly under the management of Moncent. At that time, several pilots of the ROK army will come to train with you, and you will form a joint air reconnaissance and support strike group to participate in the final exercise. Uncle Edson sent another plan to Feng Zixi and said.
After reading it casually, Feng Zixi said, "Then let's do it!" Is there nothing wrong with it now? Then I'm going to rush back to Seoul. ”
Colonel Monson came over and patted Feng Zixi on the shoulder, and said very affectionately: "Why are you in such a hurry?" This is the first time we've met, and this is my territory, so I have to let my cousin do the friendship of the landlord, right? Today's dinner will be eaten here, let's have a few drinks, chat, and I will introduce you to your sister-in-law and your two little nieces. ”
It's hard to be gracious, Monson is Feng Zixi's cousin who is very close, how can he be embarrassed to refuse? Even if he was calculated by the two of them, Feng Zixi had no choice but to accept his fate. After all, if this thing is done well, there are still many benefits, especially for the future of the two families, which is a very important help.
Moncente's wife, Feng Zixi's sister-in-law, is also nearly forty years old, a US military doctor, also born in a US military family, with the rank of lieutenant colonel, and is now the medical director of Wushan Air Force Base.
As for Feng Zixi's two nieces, the oldest is thirteen years old, and the youngest is only eight years old, and they are very naughty. After knowing that Feng Zixi was the son of Aunt Aina, he kept pestering Feng Zixi, asking him to talk about some Korean things, where else is fun and where is delicious. They like to play the most at this age, but in addition to going to school, they spend all day in the barracks, and all they see are soldiers and soldiers, where will anyone play with them?
Feng Zixi is their uncle in seniority, but he is not very old, although he also wears military uniforms like his father and the soldiers in the barracks, but he is not at all like the old-fashioned soldiers in the base, not only joking with them, but also telling them stories, and saying that he will take them out of the playground in Seoul to play when he has time, which makes the two little nieces happy, but also has a lot of good feelings for Zixi.
"You arrange your work as soon as possible, and when it's time for training, I will naturally send someone to inform you." At the door of Cousin Moncente's house in the barracks, the cousin, who met for the first time, repeatedly explained and returned the mobile phone that had just entered the barracks and was confiscated by the sergeant major to Feng Zixi.
"I know." After saying goodbye to his sister-in-law and two little nieces who were reluctant to give him up, Feng Zixi strolled away from the barracks and got into the car of Bos, who had been waiting for him at the gate of the barracks.
"What's going on?" Bosch is not an active-duty soldier and cannot enter the barracks without special permission. Although he was nervous about Zixi's safety, he was helpless. Seeing the tired Feng Zixi, Bo said: "Tonight's shooting has been canceled, SBS TV and the company have received the news, waiting for your further confirmation before arranging the rest of the trip." ”
"Zhilu Dao, let's go back and talk about it!" Feng Zixi closed his eyes, he didn't want to say anything now, he just wanted to be quiet, or find a place to vent his inner depression and dissatisfaction.
The mobile phone that has just been turned on keeps flashing with information signal lights, filling the information database of the mobile phone. It turned out that since he left with two American soldiers, the studio had been noisily opened. Son Ye-jin was at a loss and dialed Cha Tae-hyun and Ahn Sung-ki, she knew that these seniors and Zi-hee were good friends, and hoped that they could help inquire about the news.
Cha Tae-hyun and the others accepted Son Ye-jin's call, and at first they thought they were joking, how could the US military casually recruit an artist to enlist in the army? But listening to Son Ye-jin's crying, things seem to be true. They all contacted a kind of friend and asked them all to go out and inquire about Zixi.
The news quickly came back, and it was learned from the media. In fact, the news of the media also came from the studio, so many people watched Zixi leave with two American soldiers, and when Zixi left, he was still wearing a US Air Force second lieutenant uniform, could it be that so many people watched it, would it be fake? In addition, a photographer even took a photo of Zi-hee wearing a military uniform and saying goodbye to Son Ye-jin, which was published on the webpage of a forum, which further confirmed the reliability of the news. From the moment Zixi stepped into Wusan Air Base, the news has spread throughout Seoul and even throughout South Korea.
"Hey! Is it Zixi's senior? Is it Zixi's predecessor's mobile phone? Feng Zixi, who was still reading the text message on his mobile phone, suddenly found a call from an unfamiliar number, and immediately connected it and heard a strange woman's voice.
"I'm Zixi, are you...?"
"I'm Han Mi-sun, do you remember me?" The strange woman's voice sounded happy, and there seemed to be a lot of noise around.
"Han Mi-sun? Do we know each other? Feng Zixi is very unfamiliar with the name Han Meishan.
"We didn't meet last time at Seoul National University, and I invited my seniors to join the basketball club, and you gave me a check for one million. I am Han Mi-sun, an officer of the Seoul National University Student Union, do you remember? The woman on the phone seemed to be very dissatisfied with Feng Zixi forgetting herself, and her voice was much louder.
"Oh! It's you! "Feng Zixi finally remembered that there was such a thing, he was so busy that he even forgot about being a member of the basketball club of Seoul National University." Do you have something to do with me? ”
"Of course, we have a game against the Hongik University basketball team tonight, can you come and participate? It will be held in the gymnasium of Hongik University, and I hope you will be able to participate, even if you don't play, you can cheer us up! When Han Meishan said that the last thing was the end, it was almost a pleading.
"That's it!" Feng Zixi suddenly felt that playing basketball was not a good way to vent his inner depression, since he was uncomfortable now, wouldn't it be better to sweat from playing basketball? "I'll come over right away, get my shirt ready, and I'll play when I get a chance."
