"Thank you."
Wang Yao picked up the teacup and clinked it with Xiao Yunhai's.
Xiao Yunhai smiled and said, "The Longjing tea here is really good. It's not easy to drink such authentic tea in America."
"Thank you for your compliment, Mr. Xiao."
A loud voice came from behind Xiao Yunhai.
Xiao Yunhai turned his head to look and saw a white-haired but spirited old man walking over with a pot of tea.
Judging from his age, he should be in his seventies.
Xiao Yunhai stood up and greeted him politely, "Hello, Mr. Chen."
A trace of admiration flashed in the old man's eyes. He chuckled and said, "With Mr. Xiao's current status, you can still stand up and greet an old man like me. Elder Chen has indeed taught a good grandson."
Xiao Yunhai was surprised and said, "Do you know my grandfather?"
The old man made a gesture for them to sit down and then sat on another stool. He poured out the Longjing tea in their teacups and rinsed it with the tea from the teapot. After that, he poured a cup of tea for them and said, "Try my green tea. It's a hot day. Drink this to relieve the heat. "
Xiao Yunhai took a sip and rinsed his mouth. He spat it out and then started to taste the tea. He said, "Not bad. It's fresh and has a natural taste. Mr. Chen, your tea is definitely of the highest quality. Even Hua Xia can't buy it. "
He didn't know anything about the art of tea. He said, "I'm just a warrior. It's a pity that I'm drinking such good tea."
The old man laughed and said, "In this world, people who can practice Martial Arts to the level of Transforming Strength are very rare. It's lucky that a master of Transforming Strength like you can drink this tea. "
Xiao Yunhai said, "Looking at your figure, it seems that you also practice Xingyi Martial Arts. What's the relationship between you and my grandfather? "
The old man said, "My name is Zhang Quan. I'm 73 years old this year. Your grandfather was the leader of the Freemasons, and I was the leader of the Freemasons in America for ten years. After I retired, I came from New York and opened this teahouse. Speaking of which, my Kung Fu was taught by Old Chen personally, so I can be considered as his disciple. How is Elder Chen? "
Xiao Yunhai smiled and said, "Very good. He was a man who couldn't stay idle. He was building a school to teach children martial arts. It would probably be completed by the end of the year. Old Master Zhang, since you have nothing to do, you can go back and take a look. He is in Feicheng. "
Although this Zhang Quan was old, his body was very robust. His eyes were sharp, and he didn't look old at all. Obviously, he was a Xing Yi expert who was good at maintaining his health.
Zhang Quan nodded and said, "I will return to settle down next year. At that time, I will choose to settle down in Feicheng. Hehe, teaching martial arts to a group of children is a good way to pass the time in my old age. Mr. Xiao, has your Kung Fu reached the final level? "
Xiao Yunhai said with a smile, "No. Were there realms like Void Shattering and Introspective Convalescence? I don't know. Anyway, I didn't manage to do it. "
Zhang Quan sighed and said, "Even you can't do it. Is this realm really just a myth?"
Xiao Yunhai said, "Even if you can achieve it, so what? At most, you can live a few more years. If a person lives to two or three hundred years old, his wife, children, brothers, and friends will all leave him, and he won't even have someone to talk to. It would be better to die. "
Zhang Quan clapped his hands and said with a smile, "Well said. With such a state of mind, Xiao Yunhai is really amazing. "
After staying in the teahouse for a full hour, Xiao Yunhai stood up and said, "Mr. Zhang, Wang Yao, let's call it a day. I have to go to California to shoot a movie as soon as possible."
Zhang Quan laughed and said, "Okay. But you have to take a picture of me. I can't let go of a famous person like you. "
Xiao Yunhai smiled and said, "No problem."
After taking a picture with Zhang Quan, Xiao Yunhai took a car and went straight to the airport.
He really came and went in a hurry.
When he returned to the set, Xiao Yunhai found that everyone was a little depressed, so he called the assistant director, Neil, and said, "The matter is almost settled. Can you tell everyone to cheer up? I'll go to the police station and ask about the situation. If there are no accidents, I believe we can start shooting tomorrow or the day after. "
Neil said happily, "That's great. Mr. Xiao, who is the mastermind behind this? "
Xiao Yunhai smiled and said, "This matter is over. I promise there won't be any more vicious incidents like this in the future. As for the rest, you don't have to ask anymore."
Neil nodded and said, "Okay. By the way, Mr. Xiao, our cars were blown up. The car rental company came to us and asked for compensation. The price is 80% of the original price. "
Xiao Yunhai said, "Then compensate them and rent a few more cars."
Neil smiled and said, "I'll do it right away."
After leaving the set's hotel, Xiao Yunhai took a taxi and went to the police station.
The police inside were very busy. They were all investigating Xiao Yunhai's explosion case. One had to know that this was a reward of 100 million US dollars.
After finding the director, Fred Constance, Xiao Yunhai brought up the request to continue filming tomorrow. The other party didn't hesitate at all and agreed.
"Mr. Xiao, the guy with the scar on his neck has been confirmed by the Interpol to be an experienced killer. Moreover, this person's scar is likely to have been made by himself. After the matter was done, he erased it so that we would go in the wrong direction. He's probably already on a plane and left. It's basically impossible to find him now. "Fred Constance sighed.
Xiao Yunhai knew that the director was feeling sorry for the 100 million US dollars. He said, "It's okay. As long as he doesn't come and disturb our normal work, it's fine. Director Constance, thank you for your help. Here's 100,000 US dollars. Take it as my treat. "
Fred Constance smiled and said, "Then I'll thank Mr. Xiao on behalf of my brothers. Don't worry, I'll send two people to your set in the future to prevent problems from happening again. "
Xiao Yunhai said, "Then I'll have to trouble you."
The next day, the crew started work. Maybe it was because of the explosion case, everyone's condition was very average. They only shot a few scenes in the morning, which was less than half of the original. Xiao Yunhai was very helpless about this. During lunch, Xiao Yunhai did some thinking, and there was a slight improvement.
That night, Xiao Yunhai saw the news of Angus dying of illness in his villa on the Internet.
"He deserved it," Xiao Yunhai said these four words and searched for news related to "Thousand Flowers."
After the premiere of "Thousand Flowers," which Xiao Yunhai invested in, it received very good results in Asia. The average ratings reached more than 5%, and Hua Xia was the best. The highest ratings reached 20%, and the average rating was 9.7%. It was estimated that there would be no problem in breaking 10%.
Its reputation was also very good. The Internet was full of praise for it.
"'Thousand Flowers' is really amazing. The scenes are so beautiful that I can't say anything. It's like I'm in a fairyland."
"That goes without saying. How can a TV series invested in by Yun Huang be bad? I heard that the post-production special effects alone cost more than 2 billion Hua Xia dollars. "
"The acting is all on point, the plot is full of ups and downs, the scenes are beautiful and exquisite, and the fighting is magnificent. This kind of Xianxia drama can be the benchmark of the same genre as Hua Xia. The previous' Legend of the Sword Immortal 'was already very good, but compared to' Thousand Flowers, 'it's obviously a level lower. "
"If this drama doesn't become popular, the heavens will not tolerate it. The Yenching Film Institute is worthy of being the best acting school in Hua Xia. It's really amazing. It's almost like watching a movie. "
After the promotion of the netizens, the ratings of "Thousand Flowers" were getting higher and higher. By the time it reached the thirtieth episode, the average ratings of Hua Xia had exceeded 15%, and the rest of Asia had exceeded 10%. It became the most successful TV series after "Lang Ya List."
The actors were naturally very popular. The most popular one was Lin Lu. It was said that her net worth had increased by more than ten times compared to before, and her fans were in the tens of millions. She was a proper Asian superstar. She received countless notices every day, and the number of movie offers was innumerable.
Fortunately, she and her team were not blinded by the success in front of them. Whether it was shooting commercials or accepting movies, they were more cautious than before.
Because Lin Lu knew that she was popular too quickly, and her foundation was not solid. Once the second drama flopped, she could only be like a shooting star.
What's more, none of the actors in Hanhai Film were easy to deal with. Their acting skills were outstanding. Lin Lu was not outstanding among them, and she might even be ranked at the bottom. Of course, she did not dare to slack off.
