The Film Emperor’s Daily Live Cooking Broadcast-Chapter 106
Chapter 106
A hundred years ago, the empire made a breakthrough in the field of space jumps. For the first time, it became possible to return to their home planet. However, because the technology was new and wasn’t well developed, add to that their lack of understanding of the Earth’s current situation, they could only send out an exploration team to undertake the risky trip to the devastated Earth.
The Earth’s magnetic field had completely changed, and the ozone layer had been completely shattered. Except for microorganisms, there were no other living beings. It was completely inhospitable and unsuited for human survival. The expedition team quickly abandoned this site and searched for any remaining inorganic items that have yet to degrade completely to bring back to the Empire.
Among them, were recorded images of the Earth from long ago.
The Academy of Sciences restored these materials, and the images of another world from more than a dozen centuries ago began to unfold before their eyes.
Stunning mountains and rocks formations, magnificent seas of flowers, and an endless parade of diverse human races… On this planet, 70% of it was covered by ocean, and the remaining 30% was land where weak carbon-based beings nevertheless managed to create a flourishing fire-based civilization.
Whether it was the street snacks appearing as a fleeting glimpse in the pictures, or the magnificent natural scenery, the clothing and utensils, the garden homes, the porcelain and brocade … they immediately decided: they must return to Earth.
This was where their roots lay and it was a huge treasure trove of art and culture!
They once again sent an expedition back to Earth, and according to the contents of the video record, they found the site of an original virgin forest. They collected a large number of land samples and the remains of animals and plants. With the current technology, as long as there was even a little bit of cells left, they could restore and cultivate it.
Since then, the natural ingredients from Earth began circulating in the Empire. Some of the remaining data found from the ruins provided the direction and motivation for the development of the gourmet industry.
To transform a planet from a barren land to a livable planet was almost an impossible task. Judging by their current pace, it would take at least several hundreds of years to return to Earth. It was then that they discovered a planet that had an environment very similar to Ancient Earth’s.
He Yun Yi passed the encrypted file to He Yun Chen. He opened the attached picture, and showed him the image of the planet.
“Plant thirty-two, we used fifteen years to transform it.”
Planet thirty-two was originally an uncultivated planet, but its gravity and magnetic field were similar to those of Earth’s, making it suitable for development and transformation. As a result, the Empire secretly established a research institute on the planet, dedicated to restoring the magnificence of the original Earth.
After fifteen years of hard work, they have finally developed a complete ecological area, which was completely restored according to the retrieved images. All the creatures they have restored were put here and allowed to roam free, so that they could form an independent biosphere and autonomously reproduce.
By now, planet thirty-two has been filled with greenery, beasts of all kinds gathered in large groups. They’ve turned a desolate star into a planet full of life. The only difference was the absence of any trace of human beings.
The transformation was basically completed, and the government has been intending to open the planet to the people. Although the Earth has become stricken and no longer suitable for human habitation, nothing could change the fact that the Earth is their home and the place of human origin. Therefore, the ability to gradually restore the Earth was of extraordinary significance to the people of the Empire. In the future, this planet may become a holy place in the hearts of the imperial people.
To commemorate the Earth, the thirty-second planet was named the Aquamarine Planet.
He Yun Chen nodded, and met He Yun Yi’s bewitching gaze with his own cold gaze, “So … why hasn’t such a thing been announced?”
“Well …” He Yun Yi said awkwardly, “Of course, because it’s not open yet.”
Seeing He Yun Chen remaining unmoved like a mountain, he shook his head helplessly, “Okay, okay. Here’s the truth. Although the Aquamarine planet’s great, we’ve found some ‘indigenous inhabitants’ during the transformation.”
A large number of unrecorded creatures appeared in the restored ecological area. For example, there was a reptile living near the water with a huge mouth full of sharp teeth. It was very aggressive. There was also a plant shaped life a sharp saw that could catch mosquitoes and flies. Rats with long tails who loved to steal things ran about, etc … Although it was not difficult to hunt them, these creatures have quickly melted into the biosphere they’ve built. They hesitated at hunting them down for fear that they might harm the biosphere they’ve already created.
Therefore, the Academy of Sciences and the government were considering how to promote the Aquamarine planet under the premise of ensuring the safety of the people. These creatures were definitely not a threat to He Yun Chen who has experienced hundreds of battles. In addition, he and Ruan Tang were both the most popular figures in the Empire. They were undoubtedly the most suitable candidates.
“You see, Tang Tang can control even the Zergs. Is there any reason to be afraid of these little things?”
He Yun Chen coldly pushed away his hand, “Reward.”
“…” He Yun Yi complained, “You are a marshal of the Empire, where’s your sense of dedication!”
He Yun Chen: “Oh.”
“…”
“Okay, okay.” Seeing, that he did not soften his stance one single bit, He Yun Yi could only raise his hands in surrender. He said, aggrieved, “We’ll follow the normal procedure. Will you two heavyweight guests concede to being part of a program?”
He Yun Chen said, “En.” Tang Tang has always loved Earth culture. If he took him to the Aquamarine planet, he will surely be very happy. That way, the two of them could enjoy a world for two without delaying the live broadcast. He could also use this chance to come out before the entire empire and to give out public displays of affection.
Thinking of this future scene, He Yun Chen’s mouth couldn’t help but rise slightly. He added, “The camera can only shoot during the day, and important pictures need to be pixelated. I also need to be able to control them.”
He Yun Yi 😕 ? ?
What was this kid thinking of doing that needed to be pixelated? ? ?
Fine. He’ll never be able to understand a gay guy’s world. He agreed to He Yun Chen’s request, and then went back to submit the report and make the preparations. He needed to shoot the perfect video and broadcast it to attract the audience to travel and live there.
He Yun Chen went upstairs and told Ruan Tang about this matter. He hugged his freshly showered boyfriend and buried his head against his neck, laying down light kisses from time to time.
“Hey …” Ruan Tang withdrew his neck embarrassedly and pushed him away. He hemmed and hawed for a long time before they were able to lie down on the bed together.
After listening to He Yun Chen, Ruan Tang immediately exclaimed, “Really? I’d like to go!”
He never imagined that there would come a day when he could return to Earth. Although he said that it was only a substitute restored to look like Earth, it was not easy not to think of it as Earth. He saw the photos and videos, and the restoration looked perfect. Not only was there green grass, towering trees, vines, dead leaves and rivers, but also crocodiles lying on the riverbanks and pythons climbing on the trees. They’ve even built several wooden houses.
He really really wanted to take a look!
He Yun Chen gave him a peck, “OK, let’s wait for the news from my brother.”
************
Three days later, the official websites and Weibo of several major live broadcast platforms including Jinjiang announced that after the Cutting-edge Chef’s Competition, they will jointly launch a large-scale outdoor variety reality show. Five star-ranked chefs and five soldiers would form a ten-man lineup and go to the Aquamarine Planet for a month of wild survival.
The Academy of Sciences and the government’s Ministry of Culture issued out all sorts of specifics regarding the Aquamarine planet.
[Xingxing’s Sheep Heart: Wow! Look at what I’ve found!]
[Little swallows fly: The Aquamarine Planet? They’ve been restoring it for 15 years but I’ve never heard of it.]
[Ashes Scorpio: The key point is the guest list. Unexpectedly, Tang Tang and Marshal He are on the list!]
[Can’t stop Hugging Trees: As a diehard old fan, I don’t know why but I feel like my family’s cabbage has been dug out by pigs…]
The data and news regarding the Aquamarine Planet was no longer confidential. All the research results gathered all these years were released all at once. For several days, the Star Network was seized by this news and it gathered quite a lot of attention.
Exploring a planet restored to look like the Earth from thousands of years ago was simply exciting. Seeing the published pictures and video materials elicited a strong sense of longing. Needless to say, the inclusion of Ruan Tang and He Yun Chen in this variety show’s official guest list was enough to get millions of fans shrieking in excitement.
He Yun Chen was very dissatisfied that the original two-person world had become an assembly of 10 people. For several days, he would always throw his brother an evil look.
It was only when they were about to set off that they finally reconciled and made up.
He Yun Yi patted his younger brother’s shoulder and said earnestly, “Later on, you’ll be paired off and you and Tang Tang will definitely be a pair. Each group will be assigned in a different area so it will still be like a two-person world for you.”
“Ah.”
He Yun Yi also said, “And, without them to contrast against, how could your ‘love is more solid than gold’, ‘a happy couple mandated by heaven’ relationship with Ruan Tang stand out? Right?”
This was also true. He Yun Chen’s complexion finally got better.
He Yun Yi: “…” What kind of trash younger brother was this?
Actually, this was the result of discussions amongst all the concerned parties. As a contracted anchor of Jinjiang Live Broadcast Platform, Ruan Tang and He Yun Chen going to the Aquamarine Planet to do a live broadcast, would inevitably cause dissatisfaction amongst the other live broadcast platforms. After they’ve tasted sweet benefits from the success of the Cutting-edge Chef’s competition, the other live broadcast platforms wouldn’t agree to not being able to get a piece of the pie.
Of course, the Chefs’ Association also wouldn’t let go of such a good opportunity. There needed to be chefs who knew how to cook in the wild. Otherwise, watching the soldiers eat worms and gulp down spring water will ruin the beautiful imagery that the people have imagined.
The five finalists of the chef’s competition have all joined the Chefs’ Association. Letting them participate in this show will allow them to maintain their popularity.
Because Wu Anmin and Chen Yuanwu had both joined the Rose Restaurant, the restaurant didn’t agree for both chefs to take leave at the same time. So, it was decided that Chen Yuanwu, who had a physical advantage would participate in this program. Shi Mingxu and Cao Jun were their own bosses and they decided to participate as well. Zha Panpan had become President Gu’s apprentice. Of course, President Gu fully supported her participation. So, in this way, the four other chefs were settled.
As for the military, they have just gone through a war and they needed to recruit fresh blood. They also felt that this was a good opportunity to publicize the army, so they also decided to send a few soldiers to display their strength and protect the others as well.
The wild survival challenge theme was actually proposed by Ruan Tang. He thought it would be more interesting.
All sorts of reasons combined, and finally contributed to the birth of this program.
Since it was a wild survival, there had to be strict rules. All guest chefs could only bring two pans and two bowls, as well as some necessary seasonings and some change of clothes. All other things were not allowed. The soldiers could only bring three items.
[Little Swallow fly: Woah, I’m looking forward to it! The preview looked really interesting! ]
[Weiyu Zhaozhao: I must support the program my Tang is participating in!]
[Weak hearted fool: When will it air? I can’t wait!]
[Qi Luo A Luo A Luo: Shi Mingxu and Zha Panpan will also participate? That’s absolutely, absolutely wonderful! ]
With millions watching, the ten esteemed guests took their pitifully meager luggage and boarded a dedicated spacecraft to fly to the Aquamarine Planet.
