Hangzhou, in a large house on the west bank of the West Lake, at around eight o'clock in the morning, Lin Lan drove here, walked through the corridors and buildings, and soon found his mother and a little guy who was happily eating in the arms of his wet nurse.
She reached over and pinched the little guy's face until her mother, who was standing by, glared at her. Lin Lan chuckled and sat down next to her mother. She glanced at the menu in her mother's hand and asked in a low voice: " Haven’t you gotten up yet?”
Mother Lin was originally discussing the little one's birthday party in the evening with a waitress standing next to her. When her daughter asked about it, she glanced at her again and said in a low voice, "Breakfast was just sent over."
"Tsk..." Lin Lan smacked her lips, and then she leaned into her mother's ear mischievously: "Mom, tell me, will my sister, um, have another child?"
"What nonsense? One person is enough to worry about."
Even so, Mother Lin's tangled expression was somewhat filled with expectation.
Even though family planning has been in full swing in recent years, the older generation still tends to have more children and more happiness.
Under other circumstances, the Lin family would be in the system and would not have many children, but now this is obviously not a restriction for Lin Su. It would actually be good if the daughter could have one or two more children. When the little ones grow up in the future, even if one of the fathers is not interested, the brothers and sisters can help each other.
Thinking this, Mother Lin quickly turned to her little daughter.
Lin Lan knew what was coming just by looking at her mother's expression. She raised her hand and said, "I have told you so many times that Qin Yusong and I are mainly busy with our careers now and we will talk about the child in a few years."
But Mother Lin refused: "You are already 30 this year, how many more years will it take? If you want me to tell you, just get it as soon as possible. If you don't want to take care of the child, I will take care of it for you, so that you can grow up with the little tree."
Lin Lan was a little moved by what her mother said about growing up with a certain little guy, but she said: "How is it possible? You don't know how much Lao Qin and his wife care about face. If I give birth to a child, even if no one cares about it, It’s impossible to send it to you to take care of.”
"That's just a matter of finding more nannies." Mother Lin also knew that her daughter was telling the truth, so she didn't hesitate. She still urged: "Anyway, you'd better give birth as soon as possible. Anyway, with your sister... here, as long as you don't If something goes wrong, there will never be any big obstacles in your official career."
Lin Lan was so overwhelmed that she couldn't resist, so she just did Tai Chi: "Okay, I understand."
Mother Lin knew that her talk was in vain, and she didn't bother to persuade her. She discussed the dinner with the waitress next to her again. Seeing that her mother had let her go, Lin Lan also joined in to give her advice.
While chatting, footsteps were heard outside the house, and soon Simon and Lin Su walked in together.
Lin Lan stood up immediately and greeted: "Brother-in-law, morning, have you had breakfast?"
Simon smiled and nodded.
Lin Su saw his sister coming over to hold his arm and asked, "What are you talking about?"
"The baby's birthday party tonight."
As Lin Lan explained, Simon greeted Mother Lin again, and Lin Su also walked over, took the reluctant little guy from the arms of the young wet nurse whose eyes lit up when she saw a certain man coming in, and casually sent the wet nurse and Another waitress went out and everyone sat down together.
Seeing that the little guy continued to push into his arms and looked like he was not full, Lin Su did not indulge this time. He coaxed softly and asked his mother: "Where is my dad?"
"I went out very early. He said that the old leader invited him to see the autumn tea picking. What's so good about this? I didn't come here for Simon," Mother Lin said, and glanced at the man next to her daughter, and said: " But don’t worry, your dad is confident and won’t agree to anything casually.”
Lin's father turned 60 this year. He officially retired with department-level treatment in the first half of the year, and then unsurprisingly entered the Provincial People's Congress, which has more real power than the CPPCC, to continue to exert his remaining talents.
In addition, the four children are all settled, and the merits are complete.
Moreover, compared to other Chinese officials who retired and took their time off, Father Lin's "retirement life" not only did not become deserted, but became busier.
Mother Lin couldn't help but talk about this, but she was actually very pleased.
Having supported each other for most of their lives, the couple knew each other very well. They knew that her husband was a bit of an official fan. They once worried that once he retired, he would age quickly due to the huge life gap like many veteran cadres. Now, this trend is not at all It didn't mean it would happen to my husband, so I was relieved of course.
Furthermore, as I just said to my daughter’s husband, my husband has been involved in officialdom all his life and understands what others want from him. Of course, he also knows what’s appropriate.
Simon actually didn't care much about this. When he saw Mother Lin deliberately explaining to him, he just smiled and nodded to show his understanding. Then while chatting, the little guy next to him suddenly burst into tears.
Let's all look over together.
Lin Su had no choice but to glare at someone next to her, and said to her sister on the other side: "Let Xiaomai come in, my child. It seems that he is not full yet."
Lin Lan subconsciously wanted to ask you why you didn't feed yourself, but then she understood, she pursed her lips and held back her laughter, stood up, and quickly called the young wet nurse who had just been sent out by Lin Su to come in.
Handing the little girl who was moaning and tugging at her collar to the wet nurse, Lin Su fastened the buttons of her shirt that was torn open at the collar. Seeing her mother and sister staring at her strangely, she couldn't help but blush. She looked to the side and saw someone. With a smile on his lips, he subconsciously reached out his hand, but he was reluctant to pinch it.
It was Mother Lin who smoothed things over: "Simon, the Mid-Autumn Festival is coming soon, and Hangzhou is still very lively. Since I'm here, I'll spend the next two days wandering around with Xiao Su."
Lin Lan heard what her mother said and joined in: "Yes, brother-in-law, there are a lot of delicious and fun places in Hangzhou recently. By the way, how many days can you stay this time?"
Simon said: "Two days, leaving tomorrow afternoon."
Lin Lan was immediately disappointed: "Only two days?"
Simon explained: "There are many things."
Lin Lan nodded to express his understanding, but couldn't help but said: "It would be great if you could stay a little longer. After the Mid-Autumn Festival, there will be a Qiantang Tide once a year on August 18th. Brother-in-law, do you know about the Qiantang Tide?"
"I know," Simon said, "But I didn't have the chance to watch it this time. On August 18th, well, I should go back to the United States."
"What a pity," Lin Lan said, then added: "Brother-in-law, have you and my sister agreed on where to go these two days? How about I be the tour guide?"
Lin Lan said this. Before Simon and Lin Su could speak, Mother Lin had already scolded: "What kind of tour guide are you? It's not enough to cause trouble. Just sit down for a while and then go back to work. Don't miss work all the time."
Lin Lan felt aggrieved and looked at her elder sister tentatively. Lin Su just pretended that she didn't know and could only tilt her head in disappointment and put her head on her sister's shoulder and whine a few times to express her dissatisfaction.
Lin Su would not be soft-hearted.
It's so hard for someone to come here once, so what's the point of bringing a light bulb next to them.
However, when traveling around Hangzhou during the day, I still brought a small light bulb, a little guy. This was stuffed by Lin's mother before leaving the house. Lin Su also understood her mother's thoughts very well and hoped that the child could spend more time with his father. Even though he was looking forward to a world between two people, he didn't refuse after thinking about it.
Anyway, a real two-person world is impossible.
Wherever he went, he was accompanied by a crowd of people, including a team of men's security guards and a reception team sent from the province.
So, after the little guy's first birthday party in the lunar calendar in the evening, Lin Su simply brought his father, mother, sister and brother-in-law with him the next day. This was National Day, a legal holiday. He went to Lingyin Temple in the morning and left the city in the afternoon. , went to visit the Liangzhu Cultural Site, mainly because Simon was more curious.
Because it was a little late when we returned to Hangzhou, Lin Su stayed one more night in anticipation.
I left the next day.
The last stop on the Chinese side, Suzhou.
The plan is to stay for two days.
Chen Qing has returned here early. Simon arrived in the morning and was complained by Xiao Xiao, saying that his boss missed the program she carefully prepared last night.
In fact, it is conceivable that it is probably those, and Simon certainly has no regrets.
Simon has now gradually reached the stage where it was rumored in Hollywood circles that he would rather watch football games than play in the swimming pool with a group of beauties. Of course, it is not a physical reason, but a change in mentality.
Although I am only 30 years old this year, I have experienced everything I have to experience over the years, so it is impossible to indulge in anything again.
As for Clinton's tendency to become addicted, Simon doesn't even have it.
Actually, Simon thinks that the reason why Clinton is addicted is because he is not satisfied. After all, look at the appearance of a certain intern. Simon would not be able to do it anyway. It is true that the president is high and powerful, but for women , but it is impossible to pick it up at your fingertips. Therefore, because they are not satisfied, they will continue to chase, and finally they will simply concoct a reason for sexual addiction.
On the Suzhou side, Simon was actually more at ease, so he came here just for fun.
Due to the National Day, the Jinshu Film and Television City area, which is gradually being completed, has become famous due to a series of film and television projects in the past two years, especially the summer release of "Heroes", and has shown the trend of becoming a popular scenic spot.
Because there were too many people, Simon didn't bother to squeeze through. He just walked around the Taohuawu area, which was still closed.
After a few months, Simon's most satisfying point is that various scenic spots have begun to dig moats according to Simon's requirements. Among them, the moat outside the Qin Palace has been initially completed. It is conceivable that once all is completed, the entire scenic spot will be surrounded by waters, not only The natural wall barrier ensures subsequent business operations and maximum privacy.
In the evening, we stayed on the cruise ship on Taihu Lake again.
The girls from last time were still raised by Chen Qing, and they were still beautiful. At first, Chen Qing asked if she wanted to get a new batch, but Simon didn't want to because it was too troublesome, so they stayed with the original group.
I still remember the name of one of the girls, Yu Tingyu.
It happened to rain the next morning.
It's neither big nor small, but it's not suitable to travel around. I just stay on the boat and enjoy the singing and dancing in the autumn scenery of Taihu Lake.
Then he was approached by a workaholic.
I brought a bunch of demos of "Legend of Sword and Fairy" over here.
All right.
The business was forced to open, so I spent the afternoon watching the new version of "Legend of Sword and Fairy" on the boat. The performance of a certain little maid did not disappoint Simon. She was no longer the foil in "Huan Zhu Ge Ge". It was very amazing and matched the memory. Liu Tianxian's version in the film is no less impressive.
This year’s hot item can basically be determined.
Ren Jingxi is still a little worried about this. Regarding "Returning the Pearl 2", if the little maid becomes a blockbuster this time, it will inevitably be inappropriate if she is used as a foil in "Returning the Pearl 2". However, if the scene is forced to be added , it seems inappropriate. You must know that most of the script of "Returning the Pearl 2" has been completed. When "Sword and Fairy" starts airing at the end of the year, it will be basically completely completed, and it is not suitable for revision.
Fortunately, it's just a bit of a nuisance.
In this era, domestic celebrities did not have such a high status, and there was no such thing as the situation where they were ripped apart later. In addition, they were all contracted artists under Huanzhu Film and Television controlled by Ren Jingxi. If they did not want to be idle and refrigerated, Of course, you must obey the arrangements honestly.
However, from a business perspective, this is inevitably a bit wasteful.
In any case, with the popularity of the trio, they can only make another "Return of the Pearl 2". It will be even more difficult to gather the original cast and make another "Return of the Pearl 3".
Back to this time, Ren Jingxi chased him all the way from Beijing to Suzhou. The main reason was not to ask Simon to give any opinions on the plot that had been basically completed. The main reason was the theme song.
Last year's "Huanzhugege" became a hit. In addition to its own plot, several theme songs were the finishing touch.
Regarding "Fairy Sword", Ren Jingxi originally didn't want to trouble anyone. However, privately looking for another musician to compose the soundtrack for this project failed to satisfy Ren Jingxi in the end, mainly because it was too far behind compared with someone. , lacks an eye-catching feeling.
So he came to the door.
Simon didn't want those "Sword and Fairy" theme songs in his memory to be buried, so he played them on the spot.
Let’s start with the song “Autumn Rain”.
After all, it was raining outside the cruise ship.
But after thinking about it, I realized that Autumn Rain was not intense enough, so I changed it to "June Rain".
All right.
Followed by "Happy Sigh".
The personal theme song of the male protagonist Li Xiaoyao, this is also easy to explain.
Then there is Lin Yueru's personal theme song, "It's Always Quiet."
As for "Sword and Fairy", Simon casually explained that the idea came to him when he came to watch the filming of the film at the beginning of the year. He originally thought that it could be used as a promotional theme song for the online game "Legend of Sword and Fairy".
After the initial explanation, Chen Qing successfully obtained the online game adaptation rights of "Sword of Immortality" and cooperated with Ren Jingxi, planning to develop the plot of both the stand-alone version and the TV series. However, it is still in the early stages. planning stage.
The main reason is that there is a lack of experience in online game development in China.
The Jiangnan Interactive Entertainment team responsible for the development of "Legend of Sword and Fairy OL" basically designed it with reference to the American and Korean games they already had. In addition, Simon also gave some opinions. The most important point is that "Legend of Sword and Fairy OL" is planned to be developed as a free game. The profit model will rely on prop sales instead of the current mainstream time charging.
Seeing the score and lyrics of "Slaying the Wolf", Ren Jingxi did his part and immediately said that he would use it first and it would not be too late to continue using it when the game is launched in the future.
Chen Qing wanted to argue, but considering that "Legend of Sword and Fairy OL" will probably be launched in a year or two, and seeing Ren Jingxi's eyes looking at her eagerly as if she dared to argue with him, she gave up. . Anyway, my boss has a lot of inspiration in his head, and he will need another one in the future.
