Southwest border.
In the depths of a forest, where the headquarters of the Wolf Fang Special Combat Brigade was located.
"Superstar Transformation? Live streaming? You want me to train celebrities in the entertainment industry?"
After Rashu saw the mission content on the confidential document, he was honestly a little dumbfounded.
What was this? Live streaming? Train celebrities in the entertainment industry? How was this a mission that a top special forces soldier like him should carry out?
It was a mistake!
There must be a mistake somewhere!
"Chief, I can't complete this mission!”
Rashu placed the confidential documents back on the desk.
Behind the desk, Brigadier Xiao, who had just finished reading an important military report, slowly put down the pen in his hand. He looked up at Rashu and said with a slightly solemn expression,"Rashu, do you think that this mission is too childish?”
"Yes, I am! Chief!"
Rashu did not beat around the bush. His face was ashen as he directly said what was in his heart,"In my opinion, there is no point in training celebrities!”
After hearing Luo Xiu's answer, Brigadier Xiao could not help but shake his head and smile bitterly.
"Rashu, Rashu, I knew you would say that. Not bad, you are indeed a soldier I brought up, just like me!”
Brigadier Xiao, whose hair was already a little white, stood up and walked around the desk to Luo Xiu's side.
Rashu was slightly stunned. He was a little baffled by Brigadier Xiao's reaction.
"To be honest,"
Brigade Commander Xiao took a deep breath and patted Luo Xiu's shoulder meaningfully.""Some time ago, when I first received this confidential document from the higher-ups, my reaction was exactly the same as yours. I also felt that this mission had no meaning at all.”
"Chief, I don't think it's a suspicion. This is just a show!”
Luo Xiu's gaze was like a knife as he said seriously.
"Don't be anxious. Let me finish.”
Brigade Commander Xiao smiled at Luo Xiu and continued,""In the beginning, I did think that it was a stupid move by one of the higher-ups. But later, after thinking about it carefully for a long time, I finally realized that this was actually an extremely brilliant mission! If, I mean if, if this mission can be completed according to plan, then the huge problem that our country is currently facing may be easily solved!”
"Huge problem?"
Rashu immediately furrowed his brows. He could not imagine how such a trivial and completely unrated mission could possibly be related to a national crisis.
"Rashu, you should have noticed something, right?”
Brigadier Xiao's expression turned solemn. He stared into Luo Xiu's eyes and said in a deep voice,""In recent years, the number of fresh blood in our country's army has been gradually decreasing!”
Fresh blood in the army?
Rashu was stunned.
Indeed, according to what Rashu knew, in recent years, the number of new recruits joining the army had been decreasing, and the total number of active soldiers in the army was also decreasing year by year.
Rashu nodded." I know, but this isn't considered a national crisis, is it?"”
"Really?"
Brigade Commander Xiao walked to the window with his hands behind his back." This is a very dangerous signal! Rashu!"
" Nowadays, the country is prosperous and the people are at peace. The young people who have the intention to join the army are getting fewer and fewer year after year. Under the influence of the parents of the previous generation, the goals and dreams of the children have gradually become to make a lot of money, buy a big house in the downtown area, buy a luxury car, go sightseeing, and eat well. In the minds of most young people, the so-called national collective has long disappeared!”
" Although I don't want to admit it, we have to admit that in today's society, being a soldier has become a terrible job. It's a waste of time and doesn't earn money. It's not an exaggeration to say that in the eyes of most young people, being a soldier is worse than being a factory worker!”
Brigadier Xiao couldn't help but become agitated." I was talking about the worsening social situation just now. Now, let's look at the situation in our army!”
"You're a veteran now. I believe you've seen it for yourself. In recent years, the new recruits were either sent here because their families were too poor, or because their families had certain connections. They hoped to be an official in the army or something.”
Hearing Brigade Commander Xiao's words, Rashu fell silent, not knowing what to say.
Indeed, Brigadier Xiao was right. This was the real situation.
Over the years, Rashu had also seen many things. The quality of the new recruits was getting worse and worse. They were either poor soldiers from poor families or soldiers who wanted to be gilded. There were not many who were willing to be soldiers, but there were very few.
"The army is the fundamental strength of a country!”
Brigadier Xiao's eyes turned cold. He secretly clenched his fists and said firmly,"As far as I know, this mission was personally approved by the highest leader! The goal was to make the billions of citizens who had been too comfortable tighten their hearts again! The country was based on the people. Only when the people did not forget the collective interests of the country could the country continue to develop and prosper forever!”
"If you don't advance, you will retreat! Although it is now a peaceful and prosperous time, without smoke and war, we must be prepared for danger in times of peace and sharpen the sharp swords in our hands, because we never know when those greedy invaders will attack us! There had been enough tragedies in history! We can't fall behind anymore. If we fall behind, we'll be beaten up!”
As if recalling some bad memories, Brigade Commander Xiao clenched his fists tightly.
"Chief, I understand what you're saying, but I still have a question…"
Rashu was a little depressed." If we want to educate the people about military affairs, shouldn't we capture some well-trained special forces soldiers to demonstrate? Why did he have to find those celebrities in the entertainment industry? These celebrities are all flowers that grew up in a greenhouse. They can't withstand being destroyed at all. Moreover, when I looked at the list just now, it seems that there are many female celebrities…"
"Rashu, think about it carefully."
Brigadier Xiao calmed himself down and turned to look at Luo Xiu.""Livestream training celebrities is actually the smartest method because each of these celebrities has tens of millions of admirers. By training them, we can immediately arouse the interest of the citizens! On the other hand, if they were to find some well-trained professional special forces soldiers to demonstrate, what difference would it be from watching a military documentary? Nowadays, no one would be willing to watch it!”
"In addition, the current entertainment industry in our country can be summarized as a foul atmosphere, especially those so-called young male idols. I've seen some information photos and videos. How can those so-called young male idols still be called men? She was even more feminine than a woman! The other purpose of this mission was to completely rectify the culture of the entertainment industry in our country!”
…
Silence and hesitation.
Rashu did not speak for a full five minutes.
Brigadier Xiao did not try to persuade him. Luo Xiu was his student, the best student. Hence, he knew Luo Xiu's personality very well. If Luo Xiu really did not want to, even if the highest leader gave the order personally, Luo Xiu would not care.
"Alright then! Chief! I accept this mission!"
In the end, Rashu still chose to accept the mission and picked up the confidential document on the desk again.
Although Rashu wasn't really interested in training celebrities in the entertainment industry, he thought about it. All these years, his missions had been mostly fighting and killing. It might be a good choice to change his taste this time.
"Yes!"
Brigade Commander Xiao nodded in satisfaction and added,""Rashu, remember this. Although live-streaming training celebrities sounds like a show, the purpose involved cannot be underestimated. It can even be called a roundabout way to save the country! Therefore, you must do your best to complete this mission! Don't be negligent!"
"Do you understand what I mean? In short, when training the celebrities, don't care about their status. The stricter the better. You can't be soft-hearted just because they're celebrities!”
Brigadier Xiao said fiercely.
"Don't worry! Chief! I promise to complete the mission!"
Rashu stood at attention and saluted!
