Chapter 563: Song Wanwan's Day Off: Touring the Morning Light Animation Base!
Six thirty.
Lin Mo returned home.
Just as he pushed the door open, he saw Re Ba holding Xiao Jiahuo playing in the living room; she looked up and smiled at him: "Dinner's just ready, honey, wash up and eat!"
Lin Mo stepped forward to kiss his daughter's little cheek, then kissed his wife: "Why so early today? What did you make that's good?"
"Sweet and sour spare ribs, plus little potatoes, your favorite!"
At the dinner table.
Nuan Nuan sat in her baby seat babbling; Lin Mo teased her while eating: "Did we have guests? I saw that box of macarons on the coffee table."
"Guess who came?" Re Ba slipped a piece of spare rib into his bowl, "Gong Li Jie came this afternoon and brought lots of gifts for Nuan Nuan~"
Lin Mo blinked, then said: "Wasn't she traveling in France? She's back!"
Earlier, when Re Ba gave birth to Xiao Jiahuo, Gong Li had visited their home, so Lin Mo naturally knew Gong Li had gone to France for travel.
"Well, she said she came specially to see Nuan Nuan," Re Ba couldn't help laughing, "but after sitting less than ten minutes she started asking about your animation base~"
Lin Mo laughed after hearing that: "She also wants to voice a character in the movie, right!"
Not to mention Gong Li.
Even Zhang Yimou has called him, saying to contact him anytime voice work is needed for the animated film.
Re Ba nodded: "Of course, she also said she'd introduce you to Hollywood animation talent, claiming she knows many professionals."
"She's enthusiastic, but the base has just started; we need to finish *Robots* first before talking about anything else."
Just then, Xiao Jiahuo suddenly slapped the table and wailed; Re Ba hurriedly wiped her drool: "Look how anxious our little girl is—maybe she also wants to voice her opinion?"
Lin Mo reached out to pinch his daughter's little nose: "Don't worry, Nuan Nuan, Dad will definitely give you the best animation as a gift!"
Nuan Nuan giggled from being teased, waved her little hand, and knocked over the water cup.
Re Ba flailed about wiping it up, Lin Mo hurried to help; the meal was a chaotic mess yet warm and harmonious.
The weekend arrived.
Song Wanwan was on vacation.
Every week, when she's off, she comes to visit her little niece.
Ding-dong—
The doorbell rang just once; Wang Yi opened the door, saw Song Wanwan coming, and smiled: "I said Wanwan should come; just now Nuan Nuan was babbling while looking toward the door!"
"Good morning, Aunt Wang! Dear Nuan Nuan! Little aunt's here!"
Song Wanwan rushed in without even changing her shoes, just bumping into Lin Mo carrying a baby bottle out of the kitchen.
"Slow down!" Lin Mo hastily turned sideways to shield the bottle, "You rascal, you're in college yet still so flighty."
Hearing Song Wanwan had arrived, Re Ba also came out of the nursery holding Nuan Nuan; the little one saw Song Wanwan and flailed her arms and legs.
"Sweetie!" Song Wanwan tossed her bag onto the sofa, reached out to hug, "Quick, let Auntie kiss you!"
Re Ba laughed as she handed over Nuan Nuan: "You taught her to call 'auntie' last week; now she goes 'goo-goo' at anyone, like a little pigeon."
Song Wanwan spun around with Nuan Nuan: "Goo-goo it is! It's way better than last time when she could only spit bubbles."
Just then, she pulled a little hair clip from her pocket and clipped it into Nuan Nuan's hair: "Look! My little niece looks so pretty wearing it!"
Nuan Nuan reached to grab the hair clip, but instead seized Song Wanwan's ponytail, hurting her so she cried: "Ow! Little ancestor, be gentle!"
Lin Mo gloated on the side: "Serves you right, letting you get all full of yourself."
"Bro!" Song Wanwan rubbed her head, eyes suddenly lighting up: "Right, are you going to the animation base today? Take me to have a look!"
"Not going shopping with your classmates?" Lin Mo teased her on purpose.
Song Wanwan coquettishly said: "What's fun about shopping? Morning Light's animation base— I've never been there~" She leaned in, tugged at Lin Mo's sleeve and swayed: "Bro, take me to have a look!"
Re Ba chimed in: "Just take her; otherwise this girl will cling to you all day."
Lin Mo glanced at his watch: "Fine, but once we get there you have to follow directions and not run around."
"Yay! Bro's the best!"
"Right," Lin Mo said while changing shoes, "when we get to the base, don't startle easily!"
"Got it, got it!" Song Wanwan already rushed to the door, unable to wait: "I promise I'll act like a mature, steady adult!"
This way.
Morning Light's animation base.
Just as the car entered the gate, Song Wanwan was pressed against the window shouting: "Wow! Bro! This LED screen is as big as ten of our school's basketball courts!"
"That's an exaggeration~" Lin Mo chuckled.
"Hehe, but... it's really huge!" Song Wanwan said giggling, though her eyes kept fixed on the outside.
After the car stopped, Song Wanwan couldn't wait to get out.
Just then, Liu Qin came out of the main building.
"Sister Liu Qin!"
Song Wanwan warmly greeted Liu Qin.
She had naturally met Liu Qin before and was quite familiar with her.
Lin Mo had taken her to the company several times.
Well, when Liu Qin saw Song Wanwan she also smiled at her, then turned to Lin Mo and respectfully shouted: "Boss!"
"This girl insists on coming, I can't do anything about it!" Saying that, Lin Mo hung the work badge around her neck, then looked at Liu Qin and said: "You take her to look at those models first; I'll go chat with Old Chen and the others."
"Okay, Boss!"
Liu Qin nodded, then took Song Wanwan to the soundstage.
As for Lin Mo,
he needed to go discuss some shooting matters with the assistant director and the team members.
Although today is the weekend, but...
Those who do this line of work don't get any days off.
Over here.
Liu Qin brought Song Wanwan into the studio, and in an instant she was stunned—she saw three 1:1 scale WALL·E models being debugged, their mechanical eyes spinning. She cautiously poked the nearest one: "Sis... can it move?"
"Try calling its name," Liu Qin said, holding back laughter.
"Wa, WALL·E?" Song Wanwan had just said it when the robot beeped, turned its head toward her, and she jumped back behind Liu Qin in fright.
The entire studio instantly rang with the staff's good-natured laughter.
Liu Qin pressed the remote: "Don't be scared, we're testing the voice interaction system."
Song Wanwan blushed as she emerged from behind Liu Qin, then spotted a mini WALL·E in the corner: "Wow! This is so cute! Is it merchandise?"
"That's a toy prototype the Boss made for Nuan Nuan," Liu Qin laughed as he pressed a switch, and the little WALL·E rolled straight to Song Wanwan's feet, saying in a cute voice, "E~va~".
