Although the Golden Age music hall was pricey, there was no shortage of reservations . Browsing the official website's booking schedule, Fang Zhao saw that the hall was already booked all the way to February next year, and if he wished to make a reservation, he would have to make it for three months after that . The weekends from March to May were already reserved, and only weekdays were still available for booking .
Fang Zhao would complete his military service and be discharged next April . Fang Zhao would continue producing music after his military service, and it was impossible for him to book it so early . Thus, Fang Zhao made a booking for a saturday night in August . If there was not enough time, he could push his booking back, though his deposit would not be refunded .
Outside of military service, other than Silver Wing's composing assignments, Fang Zhao still had to prepare his own works and handle matters relating to the consultant team .
The consultant team's list of names was already more or less fixed, and the discussion platform had started to get lively . Every day, the team leader would raise a few questions to warm up and let everyone air their own views and suggestions on the targeted topic . The script had not been revealed yet, but everyone's enthusiasm in the group had already adjusted .
As the script had not been set yet, the members of the consultant team could speak a lot more freely . These people had all been engaged by those big investors . Some of these people held positions of power and authority, but when they spoke, there were no qualms .
On this day, the head consultant raised a topic about the character of Founding Era leaders and their livelihoods and other aspects .
Those people were heroes, but they had been humans too, not unfeeling killing machines . They had real feelings and emotions . This discussion was also for the sake of supplementing various elements of these characters' lives in the series and making these great people appear more well developed .
Well-known military campaigns during the Founding Era were all documented in historical records, and examinations would touch upon them . Therefore, students who studied history well knew about all of these, but for the actual temperaments, lifestyle habits, and other aspects of these leaders, a large majority of people had no idea .
On a certain day, after Fang Zhao returned from a mission, he opened the discussion platform to find it bustling with activity, completely different from how outsiders might view an "academic research topic discussion"—serious and solemn .
Currently, this bunch was talking about the gossip of those great people . However, only those big shots in the historical and art circles were doing the talking . After all, only people with their sort of status would dare to gossip about these great people . For those younger ones, or those who were underqualified, they just watched silently from the side .
As a "junior" in these circles, it was not good for Fang Zhao to interrupt when these big shots were talking, so Fang Zhao just viewed silently, since he wanted to know what sort of awkward incidents these bunch of people had managed to dig up .
A big shot who studied history seemed to be excited . "Let's not talk about Wu Yan's mistress . The Wu family definitely would not let it be written in, but Wu Yan was afraid of dogs—this bit should probably be acceptable for the script . "
"I'm warning you, although the current Yanzhou governor does not have the Wu family name, random vilification will not be tolerated . We need evidence . "
The dominating and awe-inspiring Great General Wu Yan had actually been afraid of dogs? Of all the creatures to be afraid, he had been afraid of dogs? If this information was released, nobody would believe it!
"I contacted people from Xizhou and, with great effort, managed to convince them to contribute a portion of Great General Lu Xi's handwritten notes . It was mentioned in the notes that Great General Wu Yan was actually afraid of dogs, so he had not had that close a relationship with Great General Su Mu . "
The others had their curiosity piqued and halted the discussion for the time being . "What else was there in Great General Lu Xi's notes?"
"According to the information provided from Xizhou, it was mentioned that Great General Lakalina's ancestor was an empress . "
"That goes without saying . According to historical studies, Lakalina originally wanted to be an empress during the Founding Era . She even got a famed artist to paint a portrait of her titled 'Lakalina the First . ' The painting is still on display at Lazhou's museum . After that, the entire world changed its political system to having only a governor . However, over at Lazhou, in private, the governor is still considered to be like a monarch . "
"Hey, let me finish . The notes did not only mention Lakalina's royal ancestry but also said that she had originally been a germophobe . However, she gradually changed during the Period of Destruction .
"Germophobe?"
"After surviving through the Period of Destruction, even the greatest germophobe can change . "
"That's true . What else?"
"Besides being a germophobe, Lakalina also had trypophobia .
" . . . For real?"
"That's what was written in those notes . Whether it is true or false, only Great General Lu Xi would know the answer . Or perhaps we could ask people from the Lakalina family?"
