It was that innocent smile that instantly entered Yang Kai's heart, giving him the urge to stay. That's how people are; once they feel a connection with each other, they may become lifelong mentors and friends.
Yan Xiaonan pointed to the film and television base in front and said, "Director Yang, my film and television base covers an area of 60,000 square meters, so we need to drive in for a tour. However, all the offices are near the entrance, so you can go and see your office first."
Dean Tan grabbed Yang Kai's arm and said happily, "Come on, I'll take you to see it. I've been here countless times, I know this place very well."
Yang Kai glanced at Tian Ru. Tian Ru said a few words to Yan Xiaonan, and seeing that Yan Xiaonan had agreed, she ran over to Yang Kai and took his hand.
Yang Kai smiled, quickly clenched his little hand, and followed Dean Tan inside. However, the observant Yang Kai also noticed that someone was quietly following behind Tian Ru. He sighed inwardly, thinking how well the Ye family had taken precautions.
Liu Jin pushed Grandma Yan inside, while Yan Xiaonan took the children and Cuihua and the others into the car, as she needed to drive the car inside.
Dean Tan pointed to a three-story building with red bricks and green tiles: "Yang Kai, your director's office is on the second floor. Besides the director's office, there is also the producer's office and my office on the second floor."
The third floor houses the finance department and Nan Nan's offices, as well as some kind of screening room. You'll see when you go up there; I heard they'll be able to show 3D movies in the future, but I don't quite understand.
The logistics department and security department are on the first floor. Oh, and there's a large conference room, next to which is a reception hall. Nan Nan told me that our photography studio and the venue are available for rent.
Yang Kai's eyes widened suddenly. Yan Xiaonan had already thought about renting out the venue, which proved that she was very optimistic about this industry. If that was the case, then he might as well move his center here, since this was the capital city.
Since Yang Kai wanted to reach new heights in this industry, he needed to climb even higher. So he toured the office very carefully, including the conference room and reception hall. The luxurious decoration opened Yang Kai's eyes. He found it hard to believe that an office in Beijing could be decorated in the Shanghai style.
When he walked into his office, he was very excited. The layout and decoration of the office fully respected his hobbies as a Shanghainese.
An American-style coffee machine, a chandelier, a crystal ashtray, a leather corner sofa, and a large, luxurious desk with a telephone, notebook, a Parker pen, a computer, and a printer.
The office is a suite. The outer area is the workspace, while the inner room is a rest area. It has a Simmons bed, wardrobe, and dressing table, and there is a separate bathroom near the door.
Yan Xiaonan waited quietly below. She could tell that Yang Kai was distracted. She wanted to wait until Yang Kai truly put his heart into this project, then her media and film company would be halfway to success.
When Yang Kai came out of the office building, Yan Xiaonan could tell from his satisfied expression that Yang Kai was interested, but these were just appetizers; the real treat was yet to come.
Ye Chenming drove Liu Jin, Tian Ru, and Yang Kai into the film and television center. As they toured the place, not only was Yang Kai amazed, but Liu Jin kept exclaiming "Wow, wow!"
"Uncle, this photography studio is even better and more impressive than the one I went to school." Liu Jin was very excited.
"Yes, your aunt has high standards and wants everything to be the best, so she spent a lot of money to build these necessary infrastructures. I'll take you to see the exterior and interior sets later, you'll definitely be amazed."
Liu Jin nodded repeatedly. He believed his uncle's words completely. Now, he was really looking forward to seeing how many outdoor and indoor scenes this film company had.
As the car started, they discussed the scene along the way. This was an exterior view of the city, with buildings, streets, and even skyscrapers. Yang Kai's eyes flickered. Did Yan Xiaonan want to shoot a film for overseas audiences? Otherwise, why would there be so many skyscraper scenes?
Cities are not just Shanghai, Beijing, and Huadu. Gradually, the scale has become smaller, and many distinctive villages have come into view.
Suddenly, Liu Jin straightened his back. He seemed to see Mushroom Village. Yes, the winding river, the towering fake mushroom mountain, and their big courtyard.
"Uncle, this!" Liu Jin exclaimed in surprise, pointing at the exterior scene.
Ye Chenming nodded and said with some anticipation, "Liu Jin, your aunt is planning to write a book before she retires, a book that will witness history. You must act well then and bring out the essence of our family."
Liu Jin's eyes were filled with tears. Mushroom Village was where he was born, the cradle of his growth, and a place he would never forget.
The car continued forward, and the scenery kept changing: scenes from the Republic of China era, the Qing Dynasty, the Han Dynasty, as well as various summer resorts and exterior walls painted with green mountains and clear waters.
Yang Kai closed his eyes. His eyes, which hadn't blinked for a long time, were extremely dry. He had never known that a petite woman could create such a vast kingdom. It was truly remarkable.
He looked at Tianru sitting to the side and asked, "Little Tianru, would you like me to work here?"
Tianru blinked her bright eyes and said in a childish voice full of anticipation, "Uncle, I like you. Welcome to Beijing, welcome to here."
Yang Kai smiled, and Ye Chenming also smiled with his lips pursed. The little guy was quite clever.
Yang Kai nodded: "Okay, then you should come here to visit your uncle often in the future. Can you do that?"
Tianru hesitated for a moment before saying, "Uncle, I may not be able to do it often. I need to study culture, martial arts, and many other things. Time is a bit tight, but whenever I have free time, I will definitely ask my dad to bring me to see you."
Yang Kai looked at Tianru with sympathy. Who said that rich people's children have an easy life? Look at them, they even have to squeeze out time for weekends and holidays.
As night slowly fell, the lights of the entire media and film base came on. Grandma Yan looked at the rows of bright streetlights and the waterfall of lights at the entrance, and felt a pang of heartache. How much electricity bill would she have to pay?
Tie Ge had already arrived in a van, which was filled with boxes of meals for the guests. Today was the first day of the travel contract, and every day thereafter, someone would report the number of meals needed to Tie Ge.
Grandma Yan was the first to receive the boxed lunch. It was the first boxed lunch she had ever eaten in her life. The small box contained a ball of rice, along with two meat dishes and one vegetable dish. It was very delicate.
