Chapter 479: Yu Qian: Wow, today's been lively!

~7 min read 1,345 words

Don't even mention it.

Huang Bo said he'd call, and immediately called Lin Mo.

After ringing for about five or six seconds, the call finally connected.

"Hello, Director Lin!"

As soon as the call connected, Huang Bo hurriedly laughed and said.

"Yo, rare to hear from you, Bo Ge!" On the other end, Lin Mo's voice came through mixed with the racetrack's distinctive wind, and a few clear horse neighs could be heard in the background.

"Director Lin, I heard you're in Yanjing? I've been mentioning it with Teacher Huang... " He said while winking at Huang Lei, "Do you have plans tonight? I've been thinking we haven't seen each other in ages—let's grab a meal!"

That tone.

It was as if he were speaking to a high-ranking official, and he didn't even realize it.

Even Huang Lei beside him didn't think anything was wrong.

In fact, from this one can see Lin Mo's standing in the circle—it's already firmly established.

From the other end came the muffled sound of Lin Mo talking to someone, followed by his hearty laugh: "What a coincidence? I'm at Teacher Yu's ranch." He suddenly raised his voice, "Why don't you and Teacher Huang just come over? We'll set up a bonfire and have a barbecue tonight!"

"Wow, Director Lin, you really know how to have fun! Teacher Huang and I will be over shortly!"

Afterwards, they chatted a few more words before hanging up.

Huang Lei saw that guy's face all smiles.

No need to think about it; it's definitely settled.

Huang Lei held his tea cup and laughed outright: "Look at you, your grin's almost reaching your ears."

"How could he not be happy?" Huang Bo grabbed a handful of melon seeds and cracked them, saying, "The script for the next film has been stuck for half a year—perfect timing, since Director Lin is in Yanjing; tonight we'll have him give it a once-over."

Since he filmed A Good Show, it's been several years, and he hasn't filmed a second work.

He's been settling.

Don't look; back then many said his transition to director was quite successful, but in reality, only he knows he's still far from it.

These past few years, the reason he hasn't rushed to film a second work is first, his ability isn't enough yet; second, mainly, there's no suitable script.

At the beginning of the year, he only discussed a script with a friend, and Huang Bo especially wanted to film it.

This is it—since it's rare to find Director Lin in Yanjing, he needs to go find his master for guidance.

Meanwhile.

Lin Mo was at Yu Qian's ranch.

Every time he comes to Yanjing, Lin Mo definitely makes a trip to Yu Qian's place.

He has a precious horse.

In the capital circle, everyone says Yu Qian's mind works really fast.

He gave Director Lin a horse; now look, every time Director Lin arrives in Yanjing, he certainly has to visit his ranch once.

And each time, Director Lin arrives at Yu Qian's ranch.

Those people from the capital circle all come over to stake out.

"Director Lin, have some water~"

Yu Qian smiled and handed Lin Mo a bottle of mineral water.

Lin Mo had just finished a few laps.

"Brother Qian Er, you're really carefree—every day you're completely free, and when you have nothing to do you do a couple of crosstalk performances just for fun~" Lin Mo took it, laughed, and said.

Indeed.

These past two years, Teacher Guo and Yu Qian have rarely had crosstalk performances.

Besides, Yu Qian isn't short of money; each day he just stays at his ranch feeding those horses.

Or a friend invites him to cameo in a film, or to join a variety show or something.

Anyway, this life is very nourishing.

And upon hearing Lin Mo's words, Yu Qian also smiled and replied: "Director Lin, you really mustn't say that—if anyone's envious, it's me who's envious of you; your international fame and influence are just awesome!"

"Hey, I actually don't want to film either, but I have no choice—these fans keep urging me day after day; if it were you, could you handle it? ~"

"Hahaha!"

Now, this ranch belongs to Lin Mo and Yu Qian as a couple.

Oh, Lin Mo's assistant Xiao Rou counts too.

Yu Qian's eldest disciple, namely Guo Qilin, is currently busy filming at Hengdian.

If they were in Yanjing and knew Lin Mo was here, they'd have come over long ago.

About an hour's time.

Huang Lei, Huang Bo also came.

And Huang Lei's eldest daughter, Huang Duo Duo.

"Brother Qian Er!"

"Director Lin!"

As soon as the two arrived, they immediately smiled and greeted Lin Mo.

Those two are also very familiar with Yu Qian.

Lin Mo was sitting in a chair drinking tea; hearing the voice, he looked up, curled the corner of his mouth, and waved at them: "Teacher Huang, Bo Ge!"

He glanced aside, his gaze landing on Huang Duo Duo: "Isn't that Duo Duo? A couple of years ago she was just a little girl, and now she's grown so tall!"

Huang Duo Duo's face flushed, she twisted the hem of her skirt, and slipped behind her father.

Huang Lei laughed heartily, ruffling his daughter's head: "This girl heard I was coming to see you and insisted on tagging along." He lowered his head to tease her, "How come, now that you see the real person, you're suddenly too shy to speak?"

"Brother Lin Mo, Teacher Yu Qian..." Huang Duo Duo hurriedly greeted.

Lin Mo and Yu Qian exchanged a glance, both couldn't help laughing.

Yu Qian held an unlit cigarette, nodding at the little girl: "Seeing you more and more, you keep getting prettier."

Yu Qian's wife, Bai Huiming.

Everyone calls her Bai Jie.

She was greeting everyone to sit; the table had food, drinks, and fruit etc.

"Director Lin, Bo Ge, Teacher Huang, you guys chat first, I'll go buy some vegetables and show off my skills tonight!" Bai Huiming had a smile on her face.

"Bai Jie, it's too much trouble for you, I was going to say let my assistant book a restaurant or something, but you..."

"No trouble, no trouble, there's clean homemade food outside ah~"

"Oh dear, Bai Jie, you're really being put to trouble!"

Huang Bo and Huang Lei also chimed in.

They're both smooth operators, still need to exchange a couple of pleasantries.

Just like that.

Yu Qian was responsible for keeping them company here, then Bai Huiming went out to buy vegetables.

They had only chatted for a short while.

Someone else showed up at the door.

Huayi's Wang Family Brothers, Xinli's Boss Cao, Guangxian's Boss Wang, and Chen Daoming also came.

As for Jiang Wen Laoge.

He's busy with movie stuff, no time.

"Wow, it's lively here today." Yu Qian looked toward the door and said with a smile.

In just a few seconds, Huayi's Wang Family Brothers strode in, along with Xinli's Boss Cao, Guangxian's President Wang, and veteran actor Chen Daoming.

Wang Zhongjun reached out from afar: "Director Lin! Long time no see!"

Lin Mo stood up, shook his hand: "President Wang!"

Wang Zhonglei came over, smiling: "Director Lin, your demeanor is getting more outstanding; if you weren't already married, who knows how many girls you'd charm!"

Cao Laoban burst out laughing, slapped Wang Zhonglei on the shoulder: "Old Wang, you usually talk nonsense, but I fully agree with this!"

Guangxian's President Wang also stepped forward to greet: "Director Lin, we haven't seen each other in a while."

We've met a few times before, and Morning Light and Guangxian have also collaborated on several dramas.

Chen Daoming brought up the rear, holding two bottles of Maotai, swaying over leisurely.

The veteran actor put the wine on the table with a smile: "Director Lin, I brought two bottles of good wine; tonight we'll drink this!"

"Old Chen, what are you doing? You should have brought two bottles of 1573 instead; what's the big deal with Maotai?"

"Go away!"

"Haha!"
