Chapter 116 The Arrival of a Prominent Figure

‘Peace and Joy‘, ‘Smooth Sailing, ‘Dreams Come True‘, ‘Become the Top Actress, and other blessings were written in colours matching the helicopter’s body.

It looked striking yet oddly fitting.

Seeing it land was still awe–inspiring despite knowing it was coming.

The helicopter landed smoothly on the wide lawn not far away, and then the cabin door opened, and several pilots wearing camouflage uniforms came out in unison.

They trailed behind the first helicopter pilot, all well–trained, standing in perfect military posture.

Amid the astonished gazes of the crowd, the leading helicopter pilot took a step forward, halted, and saluted, all in one smooth motion.

“Reporting to Ms. Burnett, the FW Helicopter Squadron is fully assembled, with twelve helicopters and twelve pilots present. I’m Isaac, I request your command.”

The scene left everyone stunned silence.

They were all stunned by the over–the–top spectacle, standing there dumbfounded. Even Alan the director, who had seen a lot, was at a loss for words.

A younger staff member, confused, asked, “Is this helicopter really that impressive?”

Someone nearby, who knew a thing or two, quickly replied, “Impressive? Are you kidding? The FW Helicopter Squadron is like the A–team of military reserves. You usually only see them in national–level forces. That’s something you can definitely call impressive.

“Not only that, did you see that guy at the front, Isaac? He’s the top–ranking national–level chief pilot! You know what that means? If we were in ancient times, we’d have to kneel just to talk to him.”

“I know about this, I know,” another staff member chimed in excitedly. “Last time, a big–shot director wanted Isaac’s help for a new movie, but couldn’t even get through the door.”

“That’s a big shot. Do you think we can just casually meet him?”

“Um, sorry to interrupt, but I think I recognise the handwriting on that helicopter… It looks like it’s done by
