Middle Age: A Leisurely Life in the Entertainment Industry

Chapter 450 Gathering (Third)

Yu Dongqing was driving leisurely towards Yang Yixin's tea house in Cunpu Village.

Today he and Zhang Yang made a special trip to the Grand Canal.

The car parked in the parking lot near Wulin Gate, and then took the water bus from there, watching the scenery along the way, and barges passed by from time to time.

I also turned around Dadou Road Historical and Cultural District, Gongchen Bridge, and the Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal Museum. I sat in a nearby teahouse and drank tea. Finally, I took the water bus back the same way, and then drove to the tea house. It was already afternoon.

"Zhang Yang, I won't go shopping with you tomorrow. I'm going back to Yanjing soon. I want to stay in Lao Yang's tea house for two days, so I won't go there." Yu Dongqing said while driving.

"Okay, okay, you live your life as a hermit, I'll go to Song City alone, I heard it's very lively there."

Yu Dongqing shook her head.

Zhang Yang is a lively person, the opposite of his personality.

Driving along the Hupao Road to the mountains, it didn't take long to see a tea house hidden in the shade of trees by the side of the road, but to Yu Dongqing's surprise, there were some people in the courtyard of the tea house that used to be very clean, and there were reporters People take pictures with cameras!
What kind of big man is here?

Yu Dongqing parked the car, walked to the yard with Zhang Yang, and saw Yang Mei running over: "Uncle Yu, your friend came to see you from England."

British friends?
Yu Dongqing remembers that he has no friends in England, right?
Elena?
She is Italian, so she should be regarded as Mingmei's friend.

Yu Dongqing followed Yangmei into the yard, and she saw Yang Yixin drinking tea and chatting with a middle-aged Caucasian woman at the tea table in the pavilion, and there were two other women beside her.

is her!

Yu Dongqing knew who it was.

Susan!

It is estimated that they were invited by the Hangzhou Music Festival.

He smiled and walked into the pavilion.

Susan also saw him, and immediately stood up with a smile on her face and said, "Mr. Yu, hello, it's not easy to see you."

Ah?
The two shook hands, and Yu Dongqing introduced Zhang Yang, and the two sat down on the wicker chair. Next to her was a woman named Wang Hui, who claimed to be from the reception team of the music festival organizing committee, and said to Yu Dongqing, "Mr. Yu, We have spent a lot of effort to find you."

Oh?
Wang Hui briefly explained what happened.

"I'm sorry, Ms. Susan." Yu Dongqing apologized: "We came to Hangzhou on a special trip to drink tea and chat with our friends, and we didn't want to be disturbed by the outside world. I didn't expect Ms. Susan to come to Hangzhou, so I'm really sorry. "

Yu Dongqing spoke Chinese, and Dora immediately translated it into English.

"It's okay, Mr. Yu, I heard you like drinking tea very much." Susan asked.

"Yes, especially Longjing, especially the Longjing near Hupao Spring. "Water and tea are both excellent. The tea in my friend's tea house is not only superb, but also the way of making tea is excellent. I think you have already tasted it." , tastes good, right? "

Susan nodded.Although the British like to drink black tea, drinking green tea once in a while, the fragrance and elegant taste is really another feeling.

When it came to tea, Yu Dongqing started talking endlessly, saying that all the tea leaves in the Cunpu Village tea house are grown by themselves, with high quality, green and environmental protection. a song.

Yang Mei stood by the side and was delighted to hear it.

"Uncle Yu is really awesome! This is an advertisement for us."

Of course, guests can’t just drink tea when they come. When it’s time for dinner in the afternoon, Yang Yixin generously invites Susan and Wang Hui to a restaurant called Qing Chan Hua Chu in Hupao Spring Park. They order local dishes from Hangzhou and warmly welcome them. .

Hangzhou cuisine is relatively light, just suitable for Susan's taste.

After drinking and eating, Susan suddenly made a request to Yu Dongqing.

"Mr. Yu, I will sing at the concert tomorrow night, including the song "Scarborough Fair" written by you. I want to sing this song with you, is that okay?"

This one.
Yu Dongqing hesitated.

People come from thousands of miles away, even though I didn't participate in the music festival, there is no need to be so reserved.

However, if they sang together tomorrow night, the two of them would have to practice coordination during the day tomorrow. Wouldn't it be impossible to drink tea in peace?
Not to mention looking at the other party's eager eyes, Yu Dongqing had no choice but to agree.

Forget it, after the singing is over, stay for one more day.

"Thank you." Susan smiled happily.

The two parties agreed to go to the recording studio provided by the organizing committee at [-] o'clock tomorrow morning to practice first to achieve the best results.

After the meal, Wang Hui accompanied Susan and others to drive down the mountain to the hotel, and Yu Dongqing and Zhang Yang also returned to the hotel to rest.

Yang Mei couldn't restrain her excitement.

"Uncle Yu, thank you, you are doing me and my dad a great favor, now who doesn't know about Cunpu Village Tea House and my Jiangnan tea!"

Yu Dongqing glanced at her and said with a smile: "If I don't do something, won't I really be eating and drinking for nothing at your father's place?"

Everyone laughed.

On the evening of April 4th, the annual West Lake International Music Festival officially kicked off on the banks of the beautiful West Lake. It was played online and offline simultaneously, and the entire Liulang Yingwu Park was a sea of ​​joy.

Compared with music festivals such as Midi and Helan Mountain that focus on rock and roll, the West Lake Music Festival is like the Jiangnan water town where she is located, focusing on poetic folk songs.

Various domestic folk bands and masters came here one after another, and even an internationally influential country folk singer like Susan also came to the West Lake to read and sing poems in spring.

It's a pity that the domestic folk music giant Qingmanshoe Band is silent.

Fans always feel that something is missing without hearing the poetic and beautiful folk songs of "Story of Time", "Love Song 1990" and "Chengdu" at the music festival.

But when the festival opened, explosive news suddenly broke out.

Yu Dongqing, the lead singer of Qingmanshoe Band, suddenly appeared in Hangzhou mysteriously, and will sing the song "Scarborough Fair" with international superstar Susan! "

After hearing the news announced by the organizing committee, the fans were excited.

Wow. Brother-in-law finally showed up at the concert!
Although it was just a duet with other people, he also wrote the song "Scarborough Fair".

Although this English song is not very popular in China, the diehard fans of her brother-in-law regard it as one of the most classic songs written by Yu Dongqing.

But why not sing a song alone?

Immediately, fans ran to Yu Dongqing's Weibo to ask questions.

Yu Dongqing didn't know, because he rarely posted on Weibo.

Wearing a smart slack suit now, I'm putting on makeup backstage—it's necessary, otherwise my face will be pale when the lights hit it.

I just bought this suit today. It turned out that I only wore a very ordinary jacket and denim when I came to Hangzhou. It was too casual and inappropriate.

At 08:30, the music festival officially started. Singers and bands took turns to appear on the stage, setting off waves of singers.

At nine o'clock, Susan, who was the highlight, came on stage and sang two country folk songs in one breath, while Yu Dongqing listened in the background.

Susan's voice is too similar to Karen Capone who sang the English song "Yesterday Again" in the original time and space, with a beautiful and slightly sad voice.

It is a pity that the latter died young.

After the two songs were sung, Susan invited Yu Dongqing to play.
