Chapter 1312: Always ready
From Hangzhou to Suzhou, the Boeing 767 is just a simple rise and fall, and it arrives at its destination in more than ten minutes.
This is the morning of the fourth day of the New Year.
Simon walked down the gangway, and next to the closed runway, a group of people immediately came up. Chen Qing followed and signaled her boss, but she consciously gave the opportunity to greet her first to the leader, and she was only responsible for helping with the introduction.
After a greeting, I readily agreed to the lunch banquet arranged here and everyone left the airport.
Simon and his party came from Guangfu Airport on the shore of Taihu Lake to the foot of Dayang Mountain, which is less than 10 kilometers away.
A manor covering an area of 10 hectares was built at the foot of the south mountain in Dayang Mountain since last year. Compared with the Chinese gardens that require slow work and meticulous work on the banks of Dushu Lake in the western suburbs, the manor here is built very fast. Around a two-hectare artificial lake, three Western-style villas were completed at the end of last year, and this time it happened to be settled in.
A convoy of eight cars stopped in front of the main villa.
The driver opened the car door, and Simon got out of the car with a red face. He looked at the lush green surroundings of winter and the artificial lake in front of him. He nodded slightly, then turned to Chen Qing, who had taken his arm again after getting off the car, said, "By the way, since it's New Year, I'll bring you a gift."
Chen Qing immediately showed an expectant expression: "Boss, what?"
"Asu prepared for you," Simon said, seeing that Chen Qing was still looking expectant, he signaled to a girl who got out of a car behind. When the other party walked forward, he smiled at Chen Qing, who was depressed, and said, "Hey, Asu said that in the future, the maids around her will choose the self-pick, and you won't have to bother you."
It turned out to be Shen Lige who was almost forgotten by Chen Qing.
Chen Qing looked at the beautiful girl in front of her, who gave people a pity, and she looked like a girl next door. She wanted to call her entourage and threw her into the small lake next to her. Thinking about the New Year, she should not be so cruel. She waved her hand: "Go away and you will be annoyed when you see you."
When the girl was asked to try to destroy the relationship between Zhu Momo's mother Mo Yiling, but failed, Chen Qing wanted to throw it away at will, but she didn't expect to be entangled, so she simply stuffed it to Lin Su's side.
Unexpectedly, I was suddenly sent back as a "New Year's Gift".
Obviously, the girl's undercover mission on Lin Su's side also failed. Lin Su did not say it in advance, but chose her own boss to come to China to send him back, which was to let her own boss teach him a lesson.
Abominable woman.
Chen Qing called out a romance novel heroine's name and even her ID card were replaced. Seeing that Chen Qing said that, Shen Lige took Simon Westeros to the villa, waited for a while, and followed the abortion of the servants.
When the trunk was crawling, Shen Lige would not leave because of Chen Qing's rebuke. What's more, not to mention the past year, I just had to take such a private plane from Hangzhou to Suzhou, even if I was just an inconspicuous maid. I never dared to think about such a life, so of course I had to seize it at all costs.
Chen Qing was too lazy to pay attention to it. She entered the villa, walked through the spacious hall, and came to the second floor with her boss to the terrace overlooking the surrounding lakes and mountains. She sat down on the sofa, and asked her sisters Jiang Shanwu and Jiang Yuanchi to prepare tea while snuggling beside her boss and talking about the recent events.
"The data I just got in the morning was released for exactly 30 days as of the third year of the Chinese New Year. The total box office of "Love Call Transfer" was 217 million yuan. If inflation is not calculated, it can be said to be the highest-grossing domestic film in China. In addition, the Chinese New Year broadcast of "My Fair Princess" finally announced the average ratings of 53%, which is nationwide. Also, in the Spring Festival Gala a few days ago, the "Picking Wei" dance of the Chinese Style Art Troupe has been a hot topic recently, and there are many people around the country. In addition, in the Spring Festival Gala a few days ago, the dance of "Picking Wei" in the Chinese Style Art Troupe has been a hot topic of discussion recently, and there are many people around the country.
Enterprises and institutions are sending invitations, hoping that the group of girls will perform, and the highest quotation is 800,000 yuan per game. Tsk, I want to make this quick money, but you can only decide after you come by. By the way, we have to include the YouTube new media business we do, which is more meaningful than the previous projects. The News Broadcast has reported it. I told the boss in the email. Anyway, now I also think that if we don’t restrain ourselves, according to your boss, others will really have no way to survive.”
Simon enjoyed the view outside the terrace, listened to Chen Qing Balabala for a while, and asked with a smile: "Have I explained your adjustments to start implementing?"
"Yeah," Chen Qing nodded and said, "Businessman, I don't think we need to be so cautious. The news I heard recently is that after the Nine Conferences in March, the film and television industry may be further relaxed. After all, opening up is the mainstream, not to mention that this movie "Love Call Transfer" has a box office of more than 200 million yuan, which is enough for the superiors to make up their minds to build the film industry."
"How the authorities' policies change is the government's business. We must do what we should do. The film and television industry is far from the core of our interests in China. If it is done too conspicuously, it will not be worth the loss."
Chen Qing nodded. Although she was a little regretful, she also knew the importance: "Boss, don't you still go to see various projects in Jinshu Film and Television City in the afternoon? In this case, will we restrain ourselves in the film and television city?"
"No need here. The stall is so big that the negative impact will be more serious if it is screwed up. Therefore, we must work hard to do it well."
The Jiangshanwu sisters brought tea to her.
The conversation between the two men paused, and when the two maids poured tea and pushed it away again, Chen Qing continued, "Boss, what do you think of this manor?"
"Great, what's wrong?"
"Then, I think the villa area by Taihu Lake is actually unnecessary, right?"
"Um?"
Chen Qing simply confessed: "Boss, it's winter now. The last time you came to visit the lake, it was also a relatively cool spring. It's nothing. However, in recent years, in summer and autumn, the smell by Taihu Lake is not very pleasant. In short, it is not suitable to develop a villa area in the lakeside."
After Chen Qing said this, Simon reacted.
It's still a matter of pollution.
After a little recollection, I probably remember that from the late 1990s to the early new century, it was a period when Taihu Lake was becoming more and more serious. There was a period of cyanobacteria crisis that broke out every year, which was hard to describe.
Simon couldn't control this kind of thing, so he could only ask: "There was no development in the west suburbs of Suzhou, so the pollution source should not be here, right?"
Chen Qing understood what his boss meant and nodded, "Yes, and the attractions in the film and television city are at a certain distance from the lakeside, so they will not be affected too much."
"Since that's the case, let's forget about the villa area."
"Actually, there have been voices to rectify in the past two years. Maybe it will be better if you wait for a few more years."
"You really think so?"
Chen Qing smiled awkwardly: "Fake it."
In my memory, the pollution problem in Taihu Lake was not completely solved after ten or twenty years, and Simon had no intention of intervening and had no ability. He just hoped that it would not be so serious that even Jinshu Film and Television City was affected.
After chatting like this, I waited until noon and went to the city to attend the official luncheon. Simon returned to the western suburbs again, intending to make money everywhere in the film and television city.
The person in charge of receiving Zhu Momo's mother Mo Yiling.
For the New Year, I wish Momo returned from Beijing and was currently in Suzhou. Simon was on the phone with the girl on the way to return after lunch. However, because of some kind of tacit stealing the bell, the girl did not appear with her mother.
Simon saw Zhu Momo's aunt Mo Wuling mingled in the crowd, trying to pretend that she didn't exist, but she was as conspicuous as her elder sister, who was both outstanding in appearance and figure.
He didn't say anything, just nodded.
The two major projects of Jinshu Film and Television City last year, director Chen Da's "Jing Ke Assassination of Qin King" and Master Zhang's "Hero", have been completed one after another. It's just after the New Year, and the Film and Television City seems quite deserted.
The first stop is the Qin Palace.
However, when the convoy passed outside the palace wall in the southeast corner of the Qin Palace, Simon signaled the driver to stop, and all the cars that accompanied him stopped.
Mo Yiling got out of the car behind and walked up to him and asked, "Mr. Westeros, are there any problems?"
Simon did not answer, but left the cement road under his feet and walked towards a corner of the palace.
The others could only keep up. The management team of Jinshu Film and Television City, who was waiting for greeting not far away in the parking lot outside the main entrance of the Qin Palace, noticed the situation here and rushed over.
When everyone gathered, Simon, who was standing at the base of the city wall, asked the people around him: "Who have you been to Universal Studios or Disneyland?"
Everyone looked at each other.
Chen Qing followed her boss and wanted to say that she had been there. Of course, she probably guessed some of Simon's intentions, so she didn't make any fun.
In this era, going abroad is not that easy. Even if someone has been abroad on the scene, he may not have been to Disneyland or Universal Studios.
Simon was not surprised and directly ordered Chen Qing: "You arrange the team of Jinshu Film and Television City, and..." Simon glanced at Mo Yiling again, and then said: "After all, Japan's Tokyo Disneyland and Osaka Universal Studios, go and see it, and the fee will be paid by Jinshu."
Chen Qing nodded and said she would write it down.
Simon glanced at everyone again, then his eyes fell on the yellow land exposed due to construction outside the city wall.
It can be seen that there should have been a lot of debris here before, and it was temporarily cleaned up because he confirmed in advance that he would come. However, compared to the towering city wall next to him, the entire area still looks very eye-catching when he looked at it.
Retracting his gaze again, Simon looked at the person in charge of the Film and Television City project. He remembered his name, He Ze, and his title was the president of Jinshu Film and Television Tourism Development Group. He raised his hand and pointed around him. Simon asked, "What are you going to do here?"
He Ze walked forward and said respectfully: "Mr. Westeros, Director Chen was filming the siege scene here, so this was the case. We are already planning, and the surroundings will be paved with cement roads soon and greening will be carried out."
"Cement road?"
He Ze didn't understand what the problem was, so he could only nod.
Simon asked, "You have been to the Forbidden City, have you always been there?"
He Ze nodded, vaguely understanding, but he didn't know what to say.
"There are no cement roads around the Forbidden City."
He Ze paused and said, "I probably understand what you mean, Mr. Westeros, but this involves cost."
Simon ignored it and said, "Next year, oh, it should be this year. "Jing Ke Assassination of Qin King" and "Hero" have been released one after another, and with some other films and TV series filmed here, the audience will definitely be curious. However, when they come here with great enthusiasm, whether they see this barren yellow land or the cement road you mentioned, they will immediately lose some interest in entering the Qin Palace to visit. What do you think?"
He Ze could only nodded again, and couldn't help but say, "Mr. Westeros, if I remember correctly, Mr. Chen and Deputy District Mayor Mo have all told you the instructions that the first phase of Jinshu Film and Television City is to develop the film and television industry, followed by tourism."
"That's right," Simon nodded and stared at the other party: "But what I mean is not to wait for one day Jinshu Film and Television City can start tourism business and then change the details of tourism-related. Instead, I hope you will make all the preparations step by step. No matter when and no matter how many tourists arrive, they will feel like they are entering a top tourist attraction. Because no tourist attraction suddenly started one day, do you understand what I mean?"
"I understand," He Ze said, paused, and said: "But Mr. Westeros is still the problem just now, and this involves the cost."
"Don't talk to me about money. As long as you do things well, you will definitely have the funds you should have," Simon said, looking around again, then turning to the main entrance of the Qin Palace, and saying to everyone who followed: "I don't have much time, so, I said, listen, and then go to execute. First of all, you need to draw a retro area. I mean, when the audience enters this area, they will immediately feel like they dream of returning to a thousand years. If you want to achieve this goal, there, the cement road, and the parking lot in front of the Qin Palace, will be rebuilt and replaced with stone roads. You can go to the Forbidden City to see it."
Mo Yiling said at this time: "Simon, the scale of the Qin Palace is already very large. If the parking lot is set too far, both crew and tourists will be affected."
"I didn't say that you can't park if you change to a stone road. There are parking lots in the Forbidden City. I just don't want to see modern cement or asphalt roads around a retro palace. In addition, for the brand new parking lot, I also hope that you will have some designs, mainly for some cover, and you can plant holly and other fences as a fence. As long as people leave the parking lot, they can get out of modern life again."
Mo Yiling understood and nodded again.
As he said that, he had already arrived at the front of the Qin Palace.
Simon stopped and looked at it for a moment, then said, "There is also a moat. There is no shortage of waterways in Suzhou. I hope that whether it is the Qin Palace, the Ming and Qing Palace Garden, or even the Fenghua of Jiangnan, they will be surrounded by moats and refer to the Forbidden City. In this way, Xiaoqing, add the Forbidden City to the visit plan, or reimbursement for Jinshu."
