"Senior, how was the movie?"
"We are currently in post-production. The special effects shots have been subcontracted to three companies. The progress is under control and we will be able to release it in time for this year's summer season."
Yin Suya and Xia Yu said.
This time we are still cooperating with a domestic company. Because Xia's Film has allocated enough budget for special effects, the results are very good. This year's summer season is worth looking forward to.
"It's a bit of a shame that all of them are special effects shots. If they could be shot on location, the box office would definitely be huge."
Xia Yu said with a little regret.
"Hey, this is too fake. Being able to simulate the effect of space is already very good. Let's not talk about whether our company will go bankrupt if we shoot it in real life. You can't just go to space if you want."
Ding Mi said sarcastically.
She had given her all for the movie, and Xia Yu had really hurt her feelings.
"It's not difficult, it's just a little late. Elon offered me a spot a couple of days ago, but the earliest I could get one would be in September, so I turned it down."
Xia Yu said seriously.
SpaceX plans to carry out its first "all-civilian" space flight at the end of this year. Because it plans to send four people to space, the mission is also called Inspiration 4.
The commercial circumlunar trip chartered by Japanese tycoon Yusaku Maezawa will have to wait until 2023, and there will only be one commercial manned mission in 2021.
If there were no system, Xia Yu would definitely be willing to participate in this program, but now the solar system is like his backyard. He has been to the moon and Mars, but ordinary space flight is really not very attractive.
Ding Mi was speechless for a moment. She actually forgot that this guy was friends with Musk. He really had the ability to go to space, but he refused such a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. Was it because he was a rich man afraid of death?
Xia Yu is afraid of death, but the adventurous spirit in his bones makes him unwilling to live an ordinary life. Coupled with the courage given by the system, he will go wherever there is danger and is still alive and well.
The reason for the refusal was unexplainable, so he simply stopped talking about it. However, the souls of the three people in front of him floated into space.
"Hey, the food is here, the soul is back."
The world is big, but eating is the most important thing. Even if you go to space, you still have to eat.
The three of them collected their wandering thoughts and dealt with the food in front of them together with Xia Yu. The first thing that came up was a plate of East China Sea fishtail steamed in red wine lees. The taste was completely different from the crispy fried ones, and the faint intoxicating fragrance made the freshness even higher.
Putting aside other things after eating, if you are driving and get caught in a drunk driving check, the breathalyzer test will definitely be off the charts, but the blood test should be fine.
The second dish, Jiangnan salted pigeon, was not so good. The cooking method was more suitable for Xia Yu’s taste. It would be better if the ingredients were replaced with squab produced at the base. It was also because I was in a hurry this time. I will bring my own ingredients next time.
There is nothing wrong with bringing your own ingredients, but bringing your own chef is a bit embarrassing. Fortunately, Xia Yu likes to try the skills of different chefs, so that he can taste all the delicacies in the world.
The food was delicious and there was less chat. After eating and drinking to their heart's content, the group returned to Xia's Film Studio.
"In order not to disturb your private time with Su Ya, Shengnan and I will go to check out the footage of today's handover."
Ding Mi pulled Jiang Shengnan out of the office, and Xia Yu suddenly found that Sister Mi was quite understanding and not as "vicious" as he thought!
"Don't look anymore. Everyone's gone. I'll make you a cup of tea."
Yin Suya greeted Xia Yu.
"No, it's not appropriate to drink tea after a meal. It's better to drink wine after a meal."
Xia Yu waved his hand and took out the pure silver wine jug that he had dug out from the bottom of the sea from the space.
He is not a person with obsessive-compulsive disorder. Even if it is a second-hand wine jug, it has been soaked in sea water for nearly a hundred years, and many bacteria have been killed.
I unscrewed the bottle cap and took a sip. After-dinner wine aids digestion and is good for health, so just don't drink too much.
"Senior, are you drinking?"
Xia Yu handed over the wine jug.
"No, you're already drinking before it gets dark. You're such a drunkard."
Yin Suya waved her hand and said no, and complained.
"Hey, who says you can only drink after dark? Many people drink early in the morning, and then they get drunk all day and live in a daze."
Xia Yu retorted.
"Okay, okay, you're right, okay? Let's not talk about this for now. Your birthday present has arrived."
Yin Suya said with a smile.
Last birthday, she prepared a gift for Xia Yu, but the item was never shipped and didn't arrive until the end of February. She took this opportunity to give it to him.
"What a coincidence? I also prepared a birthday present for you."
Xia Yu felt it was such a coincidence. His senior sister celebrated her birthday this year with Sister Mi and the others, so he didn't prepare any gifts in advance. When he arrived on the moon, he happened to have dug up some local specialties, and now he planned to give them to her.
"Really? It seems we have some tacit understanding."
Yin Suya said with a smile.
She also likes such coincidences.
"Then you should first..."
"I'll go first!"
Interrupting Xia Yu, Yin Suya stood up and carried out an extra-large box from the lounge.
It looked like a big object, so Xia Yu helped put it in the middle of the office.
"Then I'll tear it down?"
"Take it apart. It was originally given to you."
Xia Yu unwraps the red ribbon and opens the gift wrapping.
"This is…"
A black engineering box was wrapped in colored paper. When it was opened, a yellow and black machine was revealed inside.
"Is this Spot?"
Xia Yu recognized the gift. It was Spot, the robot dog Boston Dynamics had just released last year. He remembered seeing a lot of videos from the company on Bilibili. The themes mainly involved the abuse of robots and robot dogs, including but not limited to pushing, kicking, and shooting...
Unexpectedly, the senior prepared such a gift for him.
