Middle Age: A Leisurely Life in the Entertainment Industry.

Chapter 513: Looking for a suitable special effects company
The two met at Hangzhou Station, exchanged a few words, then got in a car and went straight to Yang Yixin's tea house.

Going to Yang Yixin's tea house will inevitably pass by the West Lake. Yu Dongqing sat in the car and looked at the scenery outside the window. There was an endless stream of pedestrians, many of whom were young people carrying travel bags.

The annual West Lake Music Festival will be held soon.

This year's West Lake Music Festival was not held in Liulangyingwen, but in Taiziwan Park at the foot of Nanping Mountain, where the bus to Hupao Spring just passed.

When the vehicle passed by the gate of the park, it slowed down, and there was a singing voice in the park, which turned out to be the song "Beautiful West Lake March Day"

The beauty of the West Lake in March
Spring rain is like wine, willows are like smoke
For a long time to meet

Hard to hold hands

Every time I come to Hangzhou to drink new tea in the spring, I always encounter a music festival by chance.

It's quite fate when you think about it.

Yu Dongqing looked at the scenery outside the window.

It is now the third month of the lunar calendar, and the flowers in the entire West Lake are in full bloom, and the willows are still light in color. Listening to this song I sang, it feels very special.

Since I focused on making movies, apart from occasionally writing movie theme songs, I haven't paid attention to the music industry for a long time.

Maybe, one day.

When you get tired of filming movies, you will pick up the guitar again and sing with a few buddies while walking, right?

Yang Yixin, who was driving, saw Yu Dongqing's expression through the rearview mirror and smiled: "Dongqing, the song you sang has almost become a business card of West Lake. Do you want to sing again at the music festival this year?"

Yu Dongqing smiled and shook his head.

Since I’m here to drink tea, I’d better drink tea with peace of mind.

The car turned onto Hupao Road, and it didn't take long to see a teahouse hidden in the shade of trees on the roadside. Yang Yixin was now helping Yu Dongqing stay in a nearby B&B. After packing his luggage, they came to the teahouse together.

Little has changed from three years ago.

The two of them sat in a tea room and started drinking tea.Yang Yixin's tea-making techniques are expert, and the tea is the best Mingqian tea, which makes people feel relaxed and happy when drinking it.

"Uncle Yu, you're here." A young woman came into the tea room. It was Yang Mei, Yang Yixin's daughter. Wearing a bamboo hat and a dark green back top, she looked like a tea-picking girl.

Yu Dongqing responded with a smile.

"Yangmei, you don't take care of the tea room in the urban area?" Yu Dongqing was a little surprised when she saw her attire.

"My husband is taking care of the urban teahouse. My job today is to pick tea. When I heard you coming, I specially said hello to you." Yang Mei explained.

"You're welcome."

"Xiaomei, have you finished picking the tea leaves on the east hillside?" Yang Yixin asked.

"That's it. Let's go to the south hillside tomorrow."

As Yang Mei spoke, she made a cup of tea for Yu Dongqing and chatted for a few words before leaving.

After his daughter left, Yang Yixin told Yu Dongqing: In the past two years, the business of the tea farm has been good. He has handed over all the management, production and sales of the tea garden to his daughter, formed a Longjing tea brand, and rented more than [-] acres of tea gardens. , forming a one-stop business model of production, supply and marketing.

"These are all run by Xiaomei. I only leave this Cunpu Village teahouse to entertain some old customers and friends, drink tea, chat, and be in a semi-retired state." Yang Yixin said with a smile.

"Yang Mei is very capable." Yu Dongqing praised.

"Holly, thanks to your help." Yang Yixin said suddenly.

"I didn't help much, and I still drink your tea for nothing every year."

"You have forgotten that three years ago, the British singer Susan asked you to come to my teahouse. The fact that you were drinking tea and chatting here was reported by many reporters. My teahouse also became popular, and Xiaomei took the opportunity to expand it." Park Village" brand."

Yu Dongqing remembered.It’s still about the West Lake Music Festival.

Inviting Susan to participate in the music festival that year, Susan couldn't find the tea house where she finally found Yang Yixin. The two drank tea and reminisced about the past. Of course, Yu Dongqing would not forget to tout the tea from the old friend's tea house.

"Time flies so fast, three years have passed in the next year." Yu Dongqing said with emotion.

"Yeah. Look, my temples are gray."

Yu Dongqing took a closer look, and sure enough, there were a few strands of white hair on Yang Yixin's temples.

"Old" Yang Yixin said with a smile.

Think about it too.

I am already 45.

A typical middle-aged man.

Yu Dongqing stayed at Cunpu Village Tea House for three days. Basically, he drank tea with Yang Yixin and then walked around. The days were extremely leisurely.

Standing on Su Di today, looking at the lakes and mountains, Yu Dongqing smiled and said: "I like Hangzhou more and more. I will buy a house here in the future and live in seclusion here."

"Okay." Yang Yixin smiled and said, "Okay, then we will be neighbors, drink tea, chat, play in the mountains and rivers, and live a happy life."

"Yes, but not now. There are still many things to do. Let me borrow your car tomorrow. I want to go to a company to have a look."

"No problem." Yang Yixin agreed readily.

Yu Dongqing was going to the special effects production company called FOX STUDIO that Li Wan was talking about.

However, after he found this company to learn more about it, he was a little disappointed.

He remembered that in the original time and space, although the companies such as Orange Vision, MoreVFX, Pixomondo, Dexter and BaseFX that did special effects for "The Wandering Earth" were not well-known outside, their technology was still quite powerful.

Why is this company recommended by Li Wan not so good?
For this reason, Yu Dongqing left Hangzhou and went to Shanghai with his suitcase, and found the company called Force Planet. After learning about it, he was still disappointed.

Sitting in a private restaurant by the Huangpu River, Yu Dongqing looked at the buildings in Puxi with different styles and full of exotic colors, and couldn't help taking out her mobile phone to make a call.

The call was to Li Wan.

"Li Wan, the two companies you introduced to me are not very good. They can't compare with the technical level of Hollywood." Yu Dongqing couldn't help complaining.

"Nonsense, what if this is Hollywood?" Li Wan replied: "Of course, there are many domestic special effects production companies, and there may be some hidden dragons and crouching tigers among them."

I can't go looking for them one by one, right?

Yu Dongqing was a little disappointed.

"Oh, by the way, Dongqing, isn't my son studying abroad at the California Institute of Technology in the United States? When I chatted with him on the phone the day before yesterday, I mentioned that one of his alumni is quite powerful. After graduation, he established a company in Hollywood and once worked for "Silver Bank". I did special effects in "Star Empire 5", and now I have returned to China to start a business and established a company. If you are interested, you can learn more about it. Li Wan said suddenly.

"Star Empire 5"?
Yu Dongqing remembered something and quickly asked: "Your son's schoolmate is called Wei Wenming. Is the company he founded called Rays?"

"Don't worry, I'll ask my son, hang up the phone first."

More than ten minutes later, Li Wan called: "Dongqing, my son's schoolmate is named Wei Wenming! The startup company is now in Shanghai, how did you know him?"

"Haha. I haven't seen it, but I have heard of this name."

Yu Dongqing was traveling in Los Angeles, Mingmei and her daughter went to Universal Studios Hollywood, and happened to encounter the opening of the shooting scene of "Silver Star Empire 5", and briefly explained how she met Wei Wenming.

"Li Wan, please give me the address and contact information of Yang Liang's company, and I'll go take a look." Yu Dongqing was very interested.

How did he know that Wei Wenming felt that his company was about to die.
