Middle age: leisurely life in the entertainment industry

Chapter 536 The movie budget seriously exceeded the standard

Yu Dongqing was going to a fishing ground near Chenjiabang Bridge in Yexie Town, which has convenient transportation and beautiful scenery.

It was March in spring, and flowers were blooming everywhere. Yu Dongqing and Li Wan were sitting side by side on the pony, throwing the fishhook into the lake, feeling the warm spring breeze, and their a little irritable mood slowly calmed down.

Fishing is really a good thing. Holding a fishing rod makes people forget many worries.

It was obvious that Li Wan was a newbie. After fishing for a while, he didn't even catch a fish, and he immediately couldn't sit still.

"Hey, Dongqing, how much did you catch?" Li Wan saw Yu Dongqing's leisurely and calm look, and couldn't help but curiously walked over and took a look into the plastic bucket next to him.

It turned out to be as empty as myself.

"Okay, looking at your calm and calm look, I thought you caught a lot." Li Wan said in surprise.

"I learned it from my buddies. I couldn't sit still at first. Gradually, especially when I couldn't catch a fish, I gradually realized that sitting by the water and holding a fishing rod is a kind of fun in itself. As for whether you can catch something or not, that’s the next best thing.”

Just as he was talking, Yu Dongqing suddenly lifted the fishing rod upwards, and a half-foot-long grass carp was pulled out of the water alive and kicking.

"You've really mastered fishing. I can't learn it in one try or two." Li Wan sat on the pony: "Holly, let me tell you something."

"Um?"

“The film’s budget is overestimated.”

"No way? Don't we pay great attention to economy? Look, we all stay in express hotels, which is more economical than when we were filming "Ashes of Time"." Yu Dongqing asked in return.

"What you save is a small amount of money, but you spend a lot of money! I have calculated that the special effects can reach a person's 1,000 yuan per second! This does not include those delicate scenes. Also, the special effects of igniting Jupiter, you have done it several times and you can't If you are satisfied and ask for rework, it will cost you money."

Seeing Li Wanyue getting more and more excited as he spoke, Yu Dongqing stopped him: "I won't talk about this today, just fishing."

After speaking, his hand shook, and another crucian carp was lifted up by him.

"Haha, I'm lucky today." Yu Dongqing said with a smile.

Li Wan shook his head helplessly and said nothing more.

It's early April, and it's the time to drink Mingqian tea every year. We are now in Shanghai, less than an hour away from Hangzhou by high-speed train, and of course Yu Dongqing wants to go.

And be prepared to play for a few more days.

"Li Wan, are you coming together?" Yu Dongqing greeted with a smile before leaving.

"I can't be in such a good mood as you." Li Wan replied angrily.

"I have to go back to Yanjing to find money!"

It turns out that the financial director of the crew reported two days ago that the budget of the "Wandering Earth" crew has seriously exceeded the standard by as much as 100 million!

We must find a way now, otherwise the crew's work will be suspended soon.

Therefore, Li Wan decided to go back to Yanjing to visit an investment tycoon in the circle to see if he could be invited to invest.

"Li Wan, with your sharp tongue, you will definitely succeed!" Yu Dongqing complimented.

"Thank you for your good wishes."

Yu Dongqing headed south and Li Wan headed north, each carrying their suitcases and embarking on the high-speed train.

Yu Dongqing naturally went to Yang Yixin's teahouse, but this time he didn't ask him to pick him up. Instead, he took the subway and got off at Longxiangqiao Station not far from West Lake, and then took the tourist bus straight to Hupao Spring. , and soon saw the Cunpu Village Tea House.

Hidden in the shade of the trees, there is still no change.

Yang Yixin received him warmly.

Of course, the best reception is to make a cup of Mingqian Longjing tea in the tea room.

Drinking the fragrant tea and looking at the spring scenery of Jiangnan outside, Yu Dongqing felt relaxed and happy.

"Holly, how was the movie?"

Yang Yixin knew that Yu Dongqing had been filming movies in Shanghai recently, so he asked this question.

"It's still early. It is expected to be released during the Spring Festival this year." Yu Dongqing picked up the teacup and took a sip before answering.

"So long?" Yang Yixin was surprised. I thought "it will be released on May Day."

"No way, that's how it is when making science fiction movies." Yu Dongqing put down his tea cup and sighed: "Actually, the filming will not take long, it is mainly post-production, and it will also burn money."

"It's okay. If you work slowly and carefully, the tickets will definitely be popular in the future." Yang Yixin said with a smile. "

"Haha, I hope so too."

The leisurely day in Hangzhou has begun.

After drinking tea at the tea house and walking around the area, Yu Dongqing was already familiar with this place and did not need Yang Yixin and his daughter to accompany him. He drove Yang Yixin's classic car or simply took the bus and rode a shared bicycle to have fun around the West Lake.

The annual Hangzhou West Lake Music Festival is still held in Taiziwan Park. In the excitement, Yu Dongqing took a long circle in the park with her sunglasses on.

A folk singer on the stage was playing and singing a song with a guitar:

you once said to me

you love me forever

I understand love

but always what

Girl, don't cry

We are still together

Today's joy will be tomorrow's eternal memory

It turned out to be the song "Love Song 1980"!

Singing is pretty good.

Yu Dongqing quietly took off her sunglasses and looked carefully at the singer in the stands, but she didn't recognize him.

Covers like this usually need to be authorized by the author himself. Of course, studio Yangliu handles the copyright issues of the songs, and Yu Dongqing seldom worries about them.

Yu Dongqing looked at the young men and women around him again. Everyone was singing along with the singer on the stage, but no one seemed to notice that this middle-aged man was the original singer.

But that’s fine.

As a time and space porter, Yu Dongqing wants the world to remember these classic songs rather than him as a person.

But things were not what he imagined.

There was a pair of young lovers next to her. The girl glanced at this middle-aged man who was dressed in ordinary clothes, and suddenly exclaimed: "Yu Dongqing! Brother-in-law! Are you coming to the music festival too?"

It didn't matter that she shouted, it alerted the men and women around her, and the scene suddenly became chaotic.

"Brother-in-law, are you here to participate in music too?"

"Your name is not on the program list? Is it a temporary invitation?"

"Brother-in-law, sign your name for me!" A boy squeezed in.

"Don't squeeze, I want to take a photo with my brother-in-law!"

The security guards present quickly noticed something unusual here and rushed over. Unfortunately, the scene was so heated that the four security guards were unable to maintain order.

Seeing that the situation was getting out of control, a security guard quickly took out his walkie-talkie and asked for support, while the other three tried their best to protect Yu Dongqing to prevent any accidents.

The singer on the stage also noticed something unusual in the audience and stopped playing and singing.

Seeing more and more people surrounding them, Yu Dongqing, who was surrounded in the center, secretly complained in her heart.

Isn’t it good to drink tea?

Why do you have to come here to suffer?

Fortunately, a large number of security guards and staff arrived, "rescued" Yu Dongqing from the crowd and sent him to the security office.

"Thank you." Yu Dongqing expressed his gratitude.

"Mr. Yu, I am your fan and I like to listen to your songs very much, but I don't want to see you here." The security captain said with a humorous face: "When you come, you put too much pressure on us."

ha?

"But before leaving, can you give me an autograph and a photo?"

Yu Dongqi was happy and complied with the security requirements, and finally left quietly from behind on a shared bicycle while wearing sunglasses.

He never came to Prince Edward Bay Park again.

Of course this was a small episode, but my days in Hangzhou were still very pleasant.

While Yu Dongqing was enjoying himself in Hangzhou, Li Wan was having a hard time in Yanjing.
