Qi Han finished speaking in one breath, and the scene was silent.
Those so-called rules in the entertainment industry...
In the face of the army's iron discipline, they seemed as ridiculous as children playing house.
"Now, please read the commitment letter carefully, everyone."
"After confirming there are no problems, sign below and press your handprint."
Qi Han issued the order.
The staff and guests present, including Yang Zi, all lowered their heads and carefully read the terms on the paper.
The expressions on everyone's faces became serious.
They realized that this was not just a program, but a true military camp experience.
Signing this commitment letter meant that they temporarily gave up some personal freedom and accepted the strict management of the army.
"Swish, swish, swish..."
The sound of pen tips scratching across paper began to sound one after another.
Everyone signed their names, and then solemnly pressed their handprints using the inkpad provided by the army.
The soldiers collected the signed commitment letters one by one and handed them to Qi Han.
Qi Han checked the signatures and personnel list one by one.
"Director team, all present."
"Photography team, all present."
"Guests... Yang Zi, Zhang Zifeng, Bai Lu... Hmm? One more is missing."
Qi Han looked up and scanned the crowd.
"There's still one guest, Gu Lina Zha, why isn't she here yet?"
Director Chen quickly stepped forward to explain.
"Major Qi, Naza should be arriving soon, there might be some traffic on the way."
Just then, a steady engine sound approached from afar.
A black Red Flag sedan slowly stopped at the entrance of the armed forces department.
This car did not attract too much attention, as the people present were not sensitive to vehicles.
But Qi Han and the sentry at the door, upon seeing the license plate, their eyes changed instantly.
It was a white license plate, with the words "Cheetah Special Forces Brigade" prominently printed on it.
The car door opened, and Gu Lina Zha stepped out of the car.
She was wearing a simple casual outfit today.
Her long hair was tied into a neat ponytail, and her face was unadorned, yet still clear and moving.
Qi Han's gaze moved back and forth between Gu Lina Zha and the special military vehicle, and his eyes became somewhat knowing.
"Report! if i were a female special forces soldier guest Gu Lina Zha, reporting for duty!"
Gu Lina Zha walked to the front of the team and, imitating a soldier, shouted a report.
Although her movements were not very standard, her voice was clear and her attitude was serious.
Qi Han nodded and took out the last commitment letter from his hand, handing it over.
"This is a confidentiality commitment letter, take a look, if there are no problems, sign and press your handprint."
Everyone around thought that Gu Lina Zha would, like them, take some time to read it carefully.
But to everyone's surprise...
Gu Lina Zha merely glanced at the title and then directly turned to the last page.
She picked up the pen and decisively wrote her name in the signature area.
Then she took the inkpad and, without hesitation, pressed her fingerprint.
The entire process was smooth as flowing water, without a hint of hesitation.
She handed the signed commitment letter back to Qi Han.
"Report, signed!"
Qi Han took the commitment letter, looking at the clear handwriting and handprint on it, and became even more certain of his judgment.
This female celebrity was definitely not unfamiliar with the army's confidentiality regulations.
In fact, she could be said to be quite familiar.
Otherwise, she wouldn't dare to sign without even looking.
And then, thinking of the Cheetah Special Forces Brigade car she was in...
Qi Han was almost certain.
This Gu Lina Zha had a deep relationship with a certain important figure in the Cheetah Special Forces Brigade.
"Good."
Qi Han put away the documents, his face still maintaining that serious expression.
"Now, all personnel are present."
He turned and pointed to a military bus that had been waiting nearby.
"Everyone, get on the bus immediately. We will take you all to the final filming location."
"Once you're on the bus, put away all your unnecessary thoughts."
"I'll emphasize it again: no photos, no recordings, no private phone calls."
"From now on, what your eyes see and what your ears hear, keep it all buried within you."
"Do you all understand?"
"Understood!"
Everyone responded in unison, their voices much louder.
Under Qi Han's command, everyone lined up and orderly boarded the bus.
The interior of the bus was simple, just ordinary seats.
But the windows were covered with dark curtains, preventing anyone from peeking outside.
Gu Lina Zha found a window seat and sat down.
As soon as she settled down, someone appeared beside her.
It was Bai Lu.
As a fellow program guest, Bai Lu's background was also somewhat known in the industry.
She wasn't as delicate as other female celebrities; she always carried a hint of heroism.
"Hello, I'm Bai Lu."
Bai Lu extended her hand proactively.
"Hello, Gu Lina Zha."
Gu Lina Zha shook her hand.
The bus slowly started, and the compartment was quiet, with only the engine humming softly.
Bai Lu seemed very curious about the scene just now. She leaned closer and whispered.
"How did you come in a military vehicle just now?"
Gu Lina Zha's heart skipped a beat; she hadn't expected anyone to notice that.
She remained calm and asked back.
"How did you know that was a military vehicle?"
Bai Lu smiled, a hint of pride in her eyes.
"I grew up in a military compound, so I'm very familiar with all kinds of military vehicles."
She lowered her voice and continued.
"Moreover, the Red Flag you were in is not an ordinary military vehicle."
"That level of vehicle and license plate can only be used by true bigwigs in the military."
Bai Lu's gaze met Gu Lina Zha's, with a hint of inquiry.
"Does someone in your family... work in the military? And is their rank quite high?"
Gu Lina Zha's cheeks instantly flushed a faint red.
She thought of Lu Mingyu's perpetually stern face and his occasional display of doting affection.
She didn't answer directly, just nodded lightly, and said in a slightly embarrassed whisper.
"Sort of."
Receiving this vague affirmation, the understanding in Bai Lu's eyes deepened.
She wisely didn't press further, merely smiling and patting Gu Lina Zha's shoulder.
"Don't worry, I'll keep it a secret."
Gu Lina Zha smiled gratefully at her, feeling a bit more fondness for this heroic girl.
The bus drove smoothly on the road.
The atmosphere in the compartment remained subdued, with only a few people talking in low voices.
Gu Lina Zha leaned back in her seat, eyes closed, but her mind was filled with Lu Mingyu's image.
They had only been apart for less than half an hour, and she was already starting to miss him.
Thinking about the upcoming months of closed-off filming in a completely unfamiliar place...
A vague sense of loss welled up in her heart.
She suddenly remembered a crucial question.
She still didn't know the final filming location this time.
If, if it could be closer to Lu Mingyu's unit, how wonderful would that be.
Even if they couldn't meet often, just knowing they were under the same sky would make her feel much more at ease.
Thinking of this, Gu Lina Zha turned sideways and quietly asked Bai Lu again.
"Bai Lu, do you know where we're actually going to film this time?"
"The production team has been so secretive; they haven't announced the exact location yet."
Bai Lu clearly knew some inside information.
She leaned close to Gu Lina Zha's ear and said in a voice only the two of them could hear.
"Where else could it be? The Cheetah Special Forces Brigade."
