I have a wildlife zoo

Fang Ye finished feeding the birds and came over to Director Xu, "Director Xu, the parrots are all set!"

Director Xu looked at Fang Ye with shock and admiration, giving a thumbs-up while speaking with a bit of excitement, "Zoo Director Fang, I'm at a loss for words! Absolutely stunning, top-notch stuff!"

The staff members around them were also whispering to each other, casting curious glances at Fang Ye, "Zoo Director Fang is incredible!"

"Not just the person, the birds are amazing too."

"I've never seen such miraculous birds before! Worthy of Director Fang indeed."

"With Director Fang's birds cooperating like this, our MV is definitely going to dazzle everyone!"

Fang Ye was feeling a little smug listening to everyone's discussions and compliments, but then he felt something was off. Can we be clear, please? These are parrots, okay?

Gradually his face filled with black lines, could you clarify a bit, it's the parrots that are great, okay?

Director Xu couldn't help but ask again, "When I shoot MVs, I often use small animals like cats and dogs, which are also trained by professional cat trainers and dog trainers, very gentle and intelligent, but compared to your parrots, they're simply subpar! How did you train these parrots to be so obedient?"

Fang Ye laughed, "Well, of course, it's because I've got the Heart of Nature, allowing me to make animals understand my words."

"Hahaha!"

Director Xu and the surrounding staff couldn't help but laugh, "The Director is really humorous!"

"There must be some special training method."

Yang Xiaochao also joked playfully from the side, "We believe you are a bona fide Archdruid!"

Fang Ye shrugged his shoulders, if you say it's training, you think ordinary animals can't be this smart, when I talk about sincerity winning sincerity, you think I'm pulling your leg, suspecting me to be an Archdruid, but you wouldn't believe me if I told the truth.

Ai, it's so hard to be an honest person.

Once the parrots finished rehearsing, the dance collaboration could begin!

The sprinkler system also sprayed some water, and the mist refracted by the sunlight created a beautiful rainbow.

At first, the girls and the parrots were a bit awkward in their coordination, affecting each other, but after practicing several more times, they gradually became in sync.

The colorful macaws fluttered and danced to the rhythm of the music, while in the middle, the girls wore elegant ancient-style gauze dresses, with gentle smiles.

With such a backdrop, they showed their most beautiful selves!

In the distance stood the giant Tetrameles nudiflora trees as a scenic backdrop, a faint rainbow hung in the aviary's sky, the girls on the suspended corridor danced with elegant and moving grace, singing songs with an ethereal quality.

With ribbon-like parrots circling around them, they gave off an ethereal feeling, as if they were in the clouds.

As if, it was a majestic painting of a fairy palace! The Sparkling Girls were the fairies in the palace, adept at singing and dancing.

Whether it was the members of the filming crew or the animal keepers who gathered behind to watch the excitement, each one of them stared ahead, dumbstruck.

Just two words, dazzling!

After finishing this segment, everyone started clapping enthusiastically!

...

Half a month passed by!

And finally, the last day arrived.

In the souvenir shop, Yang Xiaochao held a one-meter-long giant red panda plushie, handing it over to a staff member behind him, "Take this one too!"

The staff member, already holding a bunch of various-sized plushies, showed a pained expression, "Xiaochao, the car is almost full! Can't we pick something smaller?"

"Eh~ but I really want this one, I love gentle and cute animals like red pandas the most," Yang Xiaochao pouted.

The staff member said helplessly, "I'll ask if they have a mailing service, or if not, I'll send them directly back to the company later."

"Awesome!"

It wasn't just her; the other idol girls were also buying like crazy!

Ran Qingqing and Shi Xi were holding up a sweatshirt each, their eyes sparkling with joy, "Wow, this tiger sweatshirt looks so cool, I really like it! The red panda one is pretty nice too. Which one do you think is better?"

Shi Xi's gaze shifted between the two sweatshirts, then she hesitated for a moment before saying, "I prefer the tiger sweatshirt! Mainly because I like the white color. But when it comes to the animals, I like the red panda a little more, this one looks really cute sleeping and sticking out its tongue."

These were the sweatshirts that Fang Ye had previously ordered from the factory.

A thousand sets of each had been made over the past few days and were already on display in the souvenir store.

It seemed they were quite popular!

Ran Qingqing held them up and the more she looked, the more she liked, "I've decided to buy one of each design!"

Shi Xi expressed some regret, "It's a pity they don't have a parrot design!"

After shooting the MV, Shi Xi had fallen in love with the beautiful and intelligent parrots and even consulted Fang Ye about keeping one.

Of course, Fang Ye had reminded her to consider carefully whether she, as an idol, had the time and energy to take care of a parrot, and if she could handle its noisy chattering, curious mischief, and the responsibility of taking it to the vet when sick. He advised her not to adopt a pet on impulse and then abandon it when she couldn't care for it properly.

And regardless of how smart the zoo's parrots seemed, able to speak many words and recite poems, the average small parrot does not have this ability to talk. It's mainly African greys, macaws, Amazon parrots, and such that are better at learning to speak, and these are prohibited from being kept as pets domestically.

After making the situation clear to Shi Xi, she became somewhat disheartened and gave up the idea of owning a parrot.

However, buying some parrot souvenirs was still an option!

Parrot plushies, parrot badges, stickers—she bought a big bagful.

"Hey, look at this plushie…"

"Wow, they even have snake plushies, the scales are so finely made and it looks pretty beautiful!"

"So, are you going to buy it?"

"Erm, never mind, just looking is good."

The girls shared their opinions and in the end, walked out with a big assortment of various souvenirs!

Usually, they wouldn't buy so many things, but after filming the MV, their affection for Linhai Zoo shot up and they couldn't help wanting to buy more. And these souvenirs, with the biggest plushies costing only 1000 yuan, were much cheaper than buying clothes and makeup products.

Carrying large and small bags, the group returned to the car, thoroughly satisfied.

Before leaving, Director Xu shook hands with Fang Ye, expressing his gratitude, "Zoo Director Fang, I am extremely thankful for providing us with the venue and the animal stunts. The results of the shoot are really amazing! It might just be the pinnacle of all the MVs I've shot."

Fang Ye also shook Director Xu's hand, smiling, "You're welcome, you're welcome! It's a win-win for us."

The splendid scenes of the aviary captured in the MV would surely gain a huge amount of popularity value once viewers saw them.

"Everyone get in the car, we've been waiting for you for half a day."

Director Xu got a shock as he saw the girls loading their purchases into the car, "Why did you buy so much?"

"Hehehe!"

Ran Qingqing said, "Thank you for your hard work, Director!"

Yang Xiaochao waved from the window, smiling, "Goodbye, Director Fang! I'll come again to visit!"

Fang Ye waved back at the car, "Welcome back anytime!"

As he watched the vehicle fade into the distance, he felt a subtle sense of anticipation. The shots were stunning during the filming; how would the edited final version turn out?
