I have a wildlife zoo

"How much more money?"

Fang Ye pondered for a moment, "Hmm... Parrots themselves don't do this kind of work, they play happily every day. Getting them to seriously cooperate with work is also quite difficult, and it requires the cooperation of our professional animal keepers. The appearance fee is also charged by the day, so let's say it's about seven or eight times more expensive."

Listening on the side, He Yifei secretly clicked his tongue, "Wow, the Zoo Director sure dares to ask for a high price!"

Fang Ye thought this price was very normal, where else could you find so many beautiful and cooperative parrots?

In order to achieve the ideal filming effect, he might even have to personally go into action and direct.

Seventy to eighty thousand a day?

Old Xu felt a bit of pain in his wallet, but if it could make the MV's effects outstanding, it was worth the extra expense!

After all, they didn't need to rent parrots every day for the MV shooting, just to film a few particularly dazzling shots, and it was the entertainment company behind Sparkling Girls that was paying, not him.

"I think this price is still ok, so let's communicate with our team later on, and then we can sign the contract."

"Alright, then I look forward to a pleasant cooperation." Fang Ye smiled slightly and stretched out his hand to shake hands with Old Xu.

While Fang Ye was discussing the MV with Old Xu, Lan Li and a few idol girls were chatting spiritedly.

Lan Li was very curious about what idols normally do, and the girls were equally curious about Fang Ye's background and identity, managing such a large zoo at such a young age. They had a lot of topics to talk about.

Naturally, Lan Li spoke with pride about Zoo Director Fang, the Archdruid, and all the magical aspects, petting lions and tigers as if they were petting small cats.

And the animals all liked to be close to him, even the untrained ones seemed to understand his commands.

"Really? That can't be true," Shi Xi expressed with some disbelief.

Ran Qingqing said, "It should be true, I haven't witnessed it personally, but a friend told me that the director of Linhai Zoo is a very incredible person."

Lan Li said, "We have live streams every week, and the last one was about vaccinating the animals. Typically, you need to anesthetize the fierce animals before vaccination, but with the Zoo Director there, our veterinarian was able to inject them directly without anesthesia."

"Wow~" The girls' eyes widened as they let out sounds of amazement.

"The Zoo Director is kinda awesome!"

After Fang Ye finished his talk with Director Old Xu, Lan Li came to Fang Ye's side and showed him the signatures she had gotten, saying happily, "Director Fang, I just got Sparkling Girls' autographs!"

Fang Ye pinched her hand, smiling, "As long as you're happy!"

Looking at the clock on the wall, "It's still early, what if I personally take everyone on a tour of the zoo? After that, I invite everyone to dine at our Lion Restaurant, our grilled meat and steak have a great reputation among the visitors."

Yang Xiaochao immediately got excited, "Yes, yes! I can finally eat meat!"

Ran Qingqing pinched Yang Xiaochao's waist, "Eat, eat, eat, all you think about is food! The last time we recorded a variety show, you just focused on eating, but managing our figures as idols is very important."

Yang Xiaochao defended righteously, "Men are iron, food is steel, without a meal I feel panicky! With such a high amount of exercise from dancing every day, how can I not eat a bit more."

Fang Ye scratched his head, he hadn't considered that idols had to manage their body image, but inviting them as a Zoo Director to an animal restaurant felt a bit stingy. Anyway, the Lion Restaurant also had bread, creamy soup, salad, and the like, so they could choose for themselves.

Once the Panda Restaurant is completed, we could definitely introduce some vegetarian set meals, like bamboo shoot dishes, which would complement the Giant Panda Exhibit really well.

Arriving at the bamboo forest, Old Xu looked at the scenery with excited eyes, "The view here is really nice too!"

Lush umbrella bamboos stood like emerald jade, accompanied by the trickling streams and a delicate wooden bridge, creating a serene and pleasant environment.

He had already begun picturing in his mind a few elegant girls in traditional long dresses, holding bamboo umbrellas as they walked across the bridge.

There was a couple sitting on a bench by the path, snuggling and cooing at each other, looking very sweet and affectionate.

Having a date in such a beautiful setting must certainly be a delightful experience. Even if one wasn't looking at the animals, as a park alone it was already a fine attraction.

Curious, Ran Qingqing asked, "Director, what animals are being raised here? Pandas?"

Fang Ye said, "We have red pandas! The pandas aren't here yet, but they will be in a few months. We're currently constructing the Panda Exhibit at our zoo. Once the Panda Exhibit is ready, the pandas can move in."

Shi Xi's eyes gleamed, "Wow, you really have pandas! When I was young, I used to visit the zoo, and every time I had to see the pandas, I loved watching them eat bamboo the most. Once the Giant Panda Exhibit is complete, I must come to see it!"

Yang Xiaochao said, "I love pandas too! Round and roly-poly, with those black eye patches, they're so cute."

Old Xu praised, "Director Fang, your zoo's environment is fantastic, it feels like it could even be used to shoot a movie. I've never seen such a beautiful zoo before, the investment must have been huge, right?"

Fang Ye smiled, "Giant pandas and red pandas, both live in bamboo forests, don't they? When visitors walk through the bamboo forest and come to the exhibits to see the pandas, they'll feel as if they are encountering them in the wild, like they are visiting their home. This will make them love and respect them even more.

To create this effect, it's worth investing a bit more money (green leaf coins)."

"Impressive!" Old Xu gave a thumbs up.

Arriving at the Red Panda Exhibit, Yang Xiaochao immediately widened his eyes, "Hey, these are red pandas! I was wondering what the difference between red pandas and pandas was, they look so cute too! Hey, hey, it's looking at us!"

It was not yet the best time in the afternoon for sunbathing, and there weren't many visitors outside. Except for the older Mingming, who was lying on a perch unwilling to move, the red pandas were quite active, climbing up and down the perches and trees.

Shi Xi almost pressed her face against the glass, gazing at the red pandas with sparkling eyes, like a true girlish fan, "Red pandas are so good-looking and charming!"

Fang Ye called Guan Shan over to add some food to the baskets in the exhibit area.

Everyone was amazed to see the red pandas deftly alternating their paws to lift the baskets and get to the food inside.

"Red pandas look so dopey, I didn't expect them to be so smart!"

"I thought red panda paws were the same as cat paws, but they can actually grasp things!"

Fang Ye said, "When it comes to eating, red pandas are quite willing to use their brains."

After a brief stroll in the zoo, the Sparkling Girls widened their horizons.

Each exhibit had a fantastic environment, with the animals behaving as if they lived in the wild, displaying all kinds of natural behaviors. Climbing up and down trees, frolicking, playing in the water...

And there was this magical zoo director; in the tiger exhibit, tigers actually came over to rub against the glass and act coy with Fang Ye.

At first, hearing about Fang Ye from Lan Li, they were somewhat skeptical; after all, treating fierce beasts like little kitties sounded a bit far-fetched. But after witnessing it with their own eyes, they were thoroughly impressed and became little fans of Fang Ye.
