On Sunday, at noon, Yangzhou city was covered with rain.
Rain in winter is quite rare. After getting off the train in the parking lot of the railway station, Qin Ming''s face sank immediately.
"Ganning, didn''t you say it would rain in the evening? Why is it down now? " He looked at the rain, a cold face: "He Xi teacher will soon arrive, in case of rain can do?"
"Minister, it''s not my fault. The weather forecast says so. I didn''t know it was so inaccurate!"
Gan Ning, who is in charge of driving, came down from the car and said with a depressed face.
"When it''s bad to rain, it should rain at this time." He thought in his heart: "if teacher He Xi has not read the weather forecast and brought his umbrella with him in advance, he will be in the rain later."
He Xi''s high-speed railway is about to arrive in Yangzhou. After getting off the train, it''s a short distance to the exit of the station. It''s open-air. Although he doesn''t catch a cold, He Xi won''t feel comfortable if he is caught in the rain on this cold day.
Gan Ning of course knows that Qin Ming doesn''t want He Xi to have a bad first impression of Yangzhou, but he can''t help it now.
"You go to talk to the iron police at the exit of the station... Ask if you can go in to meet people. It''s raining. Maybe he can accommodate us." Qin Ming ordered Ganning road.
Gan Ning thought so, so he nodded and went to the exit to ask.
Of course, he was mercilessly rejected.
Qin Ming can only go forward in person. He stops the iron police in charge and goes to one side. Then he lights a cigarette for the other side and asks, "I have a very important guest coming. Can you accommodate me?"
"I''m sorry, sir." Although the iron police took the cigarette, but still said: "we have regulations, if there is no special reason, it is not OK to go in to pick up people."
"Special reasons?" Qin Ming took out some money, quietly stuffed it to the iron police, and said: "special reasons are OK. We''ll come out when we pick up someone. You can accommodate yourself and let us go in!"
"Well, I''ll take you in." Iron police about looked a few eyes, put the money away, said: "but you can only go in to meet people, can''t do other things."
"That''s right. Don''t worry, you can''t escape from your eyes!"
Qin Ming immediately promised.
The railway police then went to the exit and said a few words to other staff members. Then they took Qin Ming and Gan Ning to the platform. Qin Ming took the high-speed railway to Ninghai several times. Naturally, he knew where the high-speed railway would stop, and walked to the place where Meng Huo was going to get off.
The high-speed railway is about to enter the station soon, and there are several railway policemen standing on the platform. These railway policemen have a strange look at them. They want to ask, but they are soon stopped by the railway policemen just now.
"They''re here to meet people. There''s something special. I''ll watch them."
As soon as he said that, the other iron police understood, nodded and no longer cared about Qin Ming''s affairs. Qin Ming breathed a sigh of relief and looked up into the distance. Soon, the silver train appeared in the field of vision.
"Coming in, minister."
Gan Ning said excitedly.
"I see it."
Qin Ming said, but the corner of his eye suddenly flashed. He saw an iron policeman in a dark color police uniform coming. He was one round older than other young iron policemen, and he was followed by two iron policemen with machines in his hands.
"How can anyone else come in?"
The middle-aged iron policeman saw Qin Ming and asked coldly.
The iron police who brought Qin Ming in changed his face and quickly went up and said: "leader, they came in to pick up their friends. They are not in good health. I think it''s a special situation, so..."
The middle-aged man frowned: "who are their friends? Mobility or serious illness? "
"This..." the iron police was temporarily speechless, but when the middle-aged people looked at him, he immediately replied: "it''s inconvenient to move. I have to take a wheelchair. It seems that no one has accompanied me this time..."
During their conversation, the high-speed railway slowly drove into the platform. Qin Ming looked at the high-speed railway nervously, hoping that He Xi would not come down, Or the leader left quickly.
But the development of things is not so smooth, the middle-aged man after asking the iron police, unexpectedly went to the front of Qin Ming and asked them.
Qin Ming and Gan Ning explained to the middle-aged man according to the iron police''s answer just now. However, just when the middle-aged man was about to believe it, a voice suddenly came from behind.
"Qin Ming, what are you doing?"
It was a strange voice. Qin Ming looked back. Behind him stood a young man with a mask. He was so dressed that he didn''t know him. But there was only one person on the train who could recognize him.Welcome to Yangzhou, teacher
Qin Ming said with a wry smile, but in his heart he was yelling bad luck. He Xi''s timing was too bad. Did he see their jokes in his eyes?
"I hope he doesn''t care too much..."
When Qin Ming thought about this, the middle-aged man behind him frowned: "this is the person you are going to pick up. Didn''t you just say that he is physically inconvenient and wants to sit in a wheelchair?"
Qin Ming''s heart suddenly, this is which pot should not mention which pot! In front of Teacher He Xi, it''s like cursing each other''s deformity?
He looked at Meng Huo: "teacher, this is an accident... Listen to me..."
Qin Ming wanted to explain in a hurry, but Meng Huo waved his hand: "OK, I know what happened."
When he took the bus, he had already seen the rain and the scene of Qin and Ming standing on the platform. Meng Huo didn''t have to guess that they were here to pick him up - they were in trouble.
Meng Huo walked over and said to the middle-aged people, "they have no malice. Can they be tolerant?"
The middle-aged man looked at Meng Huo suspiciously: "who are you? What do you do with a mask? "
His eyes are alert. These people are too strange. Originally, he thought it was just an ordinary event, and the big deal was a violation. But after seeing the man wearing the mask, he doubted the real identities of these people, and maybe they would be terrorists.
"..." Meng Huo saw the vigilance of the middle-aged people. He shook his head in his heart. If this situation continues to develop like this, it will be troublesome. It''s better to be frank.
He stretched out his hand to pull down the mask, then put it on again and said, "I have other reasons for wearing the mask. Please..."
As soon as he opened his mask, although it was only a short time, the middle-aged man had recognized him, showing the appearance of seeing a ghost. Several iron policemen behind him also widened their eyes and looked surprised.
"He... He..." Meng Huo made a silent movement. These iron policemen immediately stopped talking. The middle-aged man was a little excited and asked in a low voice, "it''s teacher He Xi. What are you doing in Yangzhou?"
"I''ll work." Meng Huo pointed to Qin Ming and said, "they are here to meet me."
"Oh." The middle-aged man nodded. Before his attitude changed, he said to Qin Ming warmly, "I''m sorry, I''m sorry... I just misunderstood!"
Qin Ming can''t help sighing when he sees that the matter is so simple to be solved. He knows that it''s ok if they don''t come. He regrets that as long as he shows his face, how can these iron policemen let him get in the rain?
The iron police enthusiastically protect Meng Huo and several people go out.
"Teacher He Xi, my children like your animation best. Can you sign a name for me..."
"So is my child. If he has your signature, he will be very happy!"
"Teacher, can you take a picture with me?"
Although Meng Huo didn''t take photos with them, they still warmly sent him off in the parking lot. The middle-aged man left a phone and said that he could contact Meng Huo when he left Yangzhou, so that he could ensure his safety at the station.
Meng Huo collected the phone. It''s polite, but he also knows that contacting the railway station again may be very busy, so it''s better not to contact.
After half an hour''s delay at the railway station, Meng Huo was already hungry when he left.
Qin Ming repeatedly apologized to Meng Huo for what happened just now, but Meng Huo didn''t pay attention to it. At one o''clock in the afternoon, he was brought into a restaurant by Qin Ming and Qin Ming. Qin Ming skillfully ordered the signature dishes in the restaurant.
"Our studio is just two blocks away, so we often come to this restaurant to entertain guests." After ordering, Qin Ming introduced the special food of the restaurant to Meng Huo. Seeing that he was still wearing a mask, he said, "teacher, you can take off the mask. It''s safe here. It doesn''t matter."
Meng Huo nodded and took off the mask.
"This mask is really stuffy." After breathing the fresh air, Meng Huo sighed that he really didn''t want to wear a mask, but the mask is the simplest of all the tools to camouflage.
"After dinner, you take me to the hotel to put the salute, and then go to the studio."
Meng Huo said.
"No problem. We have the best hotel for our teacher. You will like the environment there." When Qin Ming said this, Meng Huo was stunned: "do you have a reservation? No one told you? I''ve already had a hotel reservation. "
"Someone ordered it?" Qin Ming was shocked.
Of course, Meng Huo ordered it. The secretary was worried that he was not safe and could not keep his privacy in Yangzhou, so he chose a hotel for him early, and it was not far from Huiyue studio.Qin Ming doesn''t know that Meng Huo has already reserved a hotel. He is a little disappointed. It seems that the people in Phoenix company don''t believe that he can arrange a good residence for He Xi. They are worried that he won''t take good care of him.
However, it''s not that Qin Ming can''t accept the loss. After all, he hasn''t done anything since he joined the Phoenix company, and he hasn''t gained the above trust, which will take time to prove.
"I''ll cancel the hotel." Qin Ming immediately made a decision, or let teacher He Xi live in the hotel arranged above is better, if there is anything not thoughtful place will not involve himself.
The lunch was very lively. When the waiter served the food for the first time, He Xi almost spilled the food. When he left, the boss also said that it would be free - but Qin Ming paid hard.
Qin Ming brings Meng Huo to the hotel. Unexpectedly, it''s the same one he ordered. Meng Huo is surprised, but Meng Huo doesn''t know. Meng Huo returns to the hotel to put away his salute, and then follows Qin ming to Huiyue studio.
Most of Huaxia''s animation studios are located in quiet places. The same is true for Huiyue studio. There is a quiet park beside it. Meng Huo likes the environment here very much.
He didn''t work in the afternoon of the first day when he came to Huiyue. Instead, he chatted with the painters to get familiar with the staff and their situation.
The painters stopped their work and contacted Meng Huo in batches. In the evening, they held a welcome banquet for Meng Huo in the studio. It was not until ten o''clock that Meng Huo returned to the hotel with wine.
He took a shower, then picked up his cell phone and told Alice about it.
"How long will that take?"
Alice is more concerned about this problem. Meng Huo''s stay in Yangzhou is difficult to determine in advance. He will leave only if the "talented mahjong girl" starts smoothly. Because he doesn''t know the foundation of Huiyue''s team, he is ready to stay here for a long time.
However, after half a day of contact, he now basically understands the situation.
"The team here is not very different from other animation studios in our company." Meng Huo sat down in front of him and said, "I think I can go back in two weeks."
Huiyue studio used to be a studio famous for its strength. Before joining Phoenix company, their animation can also rank in the forefront, so the quality of team members will not be low.
In addition, during the half year since Meng Huo left, the team and other studios of Phoenix company have been running in with each other. What we saw this afternoon makes Meng Huo feel that this running in is very successful.
In terms of personnel conditions, there is no difference between Huiyue studio and animation studios in Tokyo and Ninghai. It can be used directly, and Meng Huo doesn''t need to re teach.
"There''s only one director left." Meng Huo said: "in two days, I will call a director from DreamWorks to come over, and then give them two weeks'' advice, so that they can write the" gifted mahjong girl "
"Is the person in charge of Huiyue Qin Ming? It looks like he did a good job! " Meng Huo''s reply made Alice happy, and her opinion of Qin Ming improved.
"It''s good at work, but I don''t feel very steady..."
Meng Huo told Alice about what happened at the railway station today. Of course, it was not enough for him to define Qin Ming''s opinion, but Meng Huo still remembers Qin Ming''s dispute over the choice of animation last time.
These two things make him feel that Qin Ming''s work is not as steady as he thought. However, this is just a feeling. The feeling will change. Maybe Meng Huo will withdraw this view in a short time.
He doesn''t have much time to contact Qin Ming, but it doesn''t matter. These two weeks are just a good opportunity to observe him. At least he is also the man who leads Huiyue to today. He is unlikely to disappoint Meng Huo.
Meng Huo and Alice talked for half an hour before they finished the call. When they were ready to go to bed, they called Shen Jie to tell her about their situation in Yangzhou, and by the way told her about their decision to live in the Meng family for a long time.
But Shen Jie was not surprised that she had learned about it from Alice
