A lot of preparations were done for tonight's opening especially in terms of security, surveillance camera were setup weeks earlier and bomb squads dogs patrolled daily inside and outside of the building perimeter covering a huge radius. Anyone with suspicious activities were detained and questioned subsequently handed over to authorities.
The press were screened and the background of each chosen reporters were checked and validated. Only those who were chosen were given a pass to enter. Most of the security details were done manually instead of electronic to ensure no hacking. Kwi Shan and Kiera both had to ensure that their electronic systems were unhackable. Each security personnels were checked and validated through the system to ensure non were paid off to do any harm. Their faces were recorded both manually and electronically.
A facial recognition software, the largest scale for any security protocol, newly developed by Lee corporation will be use to detect register all staffs involved in the ceremony and it will detect any unknown staffs. It is sort of a test run as well for this software. Kwi Shan helped reinforced its security by hacking while Kiera defending the system, the end product, is totally invincible. Even invited guests pictures were included into the system, in addition, each face is accompanied by extensive background search report. This system was developed for the military and the government.
Heather knew about the Jade's gallery opening and the orchestra performance but her people could not get pass security border. Derek had informed the military to tightened the security border not giving her chance to cross over, he is going to be the hunter this time around.
Heather was thinking she had to do some major distraction like luring the patrolling officers to a place just to get in. She might need to explode some oil tankers at the coastal border. At the same time, she has been facing some internal problem, a fraction of her own people are rebelling, they think she uses her people for her own personal gains which is the truth, at least under Alexander leadership, despite being tyrannical and a dictator, everyone recognised that everything he did is to advance their gang and bring glory to their organisation. Profits were distributed among the henchmen, loyal men were respected and promoted accordingly.
On the other hand, Heather is just a pure lunatic, doing things as she pleases, kills as she likes, nothing much made sense but one thing is for sure, she brings destruction and terror anywhere she sets her foot. Even the Russian politicians and armed forced fears her. Due to the unsuccessful coup, Heather had been pretty busy and distracted from her revenge as she tried her best to suppress the coup by killing and torturing those men, instilling more fear.
Heather also didn't get any news on Crystal, the longer she didn't receive any news the more she fears that Crystal had been captured and killed. Adding more fuel to her anger. Everyday, in order to keep herself sane and her anger at bay, she would capture some random person and torture them as she pleases and once she is done, she ends their life and dump them some place like their life meant nothing. This causes panic to the Russian in Moscow, a serial killer is on the loose, usually the targets would be Chinese citizens. The Chinese government issued warning not to travel to Moscow for a time being. Even Chinese students were recalled back to the country as the killings were getting rampage and out of hand.
Back in China, Beijing, Jade was dressed up in a long black qipao looking elegant. Her curves were accentuate at the correct places. Her back view, does not give a clue that she is currently expecting her first child. Her gallery is divided to a few parts, along the corridor of the entrance, paintings from new and upcoming painters were put on displayed. Her gallery served as a platform to promote these new painters. And then people would arrive at Hall one, where sculptures and different kind of arts were displayed in different sizes glass boxes. At the bottom or at the side, description on the art work were given together with the creator.
Along the corridor to enter Hall Two, her paintings were put on displayed. In Hall Two, art works by famous painters and artists that she had managed to get her hands on were displayed. Once a month, an auction will be held for any of the items, and once the auctions end, new items will be placed on displayed instead. Hence, every painter and artist had a month duration to place their work and visitors are allowed to purchase these art works during the auction. Entry to the auction, will be invitations only. Only those who pledged to be a patron are allowed to participate in the auction. Being a patron means, allowing background checks as well as pledging a sum of money. The larger the amount, the more VIP the position and benefits.
The publics are allowed to enter once a week, every Thursday. Those who which to submit their pieces must allow background checks and pass thorough security check. For pieces that are accepted, a sum of money will be paid to the artist and the money from the auction sale will be divided 30-70%. The artists get 70%, the lucrative deals attracted many artists and painters around China and the world. The night went smoothly and the response were great. Family and friends came to give their support.
Jade was happy and it was written all over her glowing face. Derek stood beside her the whole night glaring at those whose gaze lingered longer than necessary. He acted more like her bodyguard than her husband. He swatted any hands that tried to touch her. Even Chris's hand were swatted away. Chris could only shake his head at his brother in law possessiveness. April managed to hug Jade but after a minute she received a sharp stare from Derek, reminding her that the hug was just too long for his liking.
Father Lee was no exception to his son's shameless and possessive behaviour. However, he ignored his son's behaviour and acted equally shameless. Those who were observing the pair of father and son, understood the saying the apple doesn't fall far from the tree. Derek must have inherited his father's shamelessness. Father Lee held Jade's hand and ushered her around introducing her to people as his daughter in law. Derek wanted to tear them apart and Father Lee looked at Jade with puppy eyes and Jade stood up for her father in law and in the end she was sandwiched by the two men to placate them. Father Lee betted on the fact that his daughter in law would side him and control his son on his behalf. Derek had to swallow his grievances just for his wife's happiness as tonight is her big night. Occasionally he would glare at his father and was irritated because his father was oblivious to them and could not care less.
Commander Mak kept his promised to send his people to tightened the already tight security. He was surprised to see the mighty Derek walking like a puppy wagging it's tail to please his wife and could not help but chuckle. Behind every great man, there is a greater woman.
