Chapter 221 Grassland
The average temperature in Inner Mongolia in early September is around 20 degrees Celsius. Compared with the capital, the climate here is considered pleasant.
Hulunbuir Grassland, located in Hulunbuir City, is a world-famous natural pasture with different characteristics in each season, making it a popular summer resort.
Gu Wei and Liu Yifei wore comfortable trousers and flat shoes. The young lady tied her hair into a ponytail and did not wear any accessories on her head, mainly to prevent scratches.
The two rented protective gear such as gloves, riding boots and shin guards at the stable, and went out into the wild under the guidance of the stable staff.
"Before getting on or off a horse, you must shorten the reins and hold them tightly to prevent the horse from getting scared and running away. When getting off a horse, you must first get your feet off the saddle before getting off the horse, otherwise you may be dragged by the horse."
Mandulatu is in his early thirties. He grew up on the grassland and has a very friendly look. His round face and smiling eyes make people feel relaxed and comfortable.
"To avoid being kicked by the horse's hind legs, never walk behind the horse's buttocks, and always stand on the left side of the horse when getting on and off the horse."
As a staff member of the horse farm, Mandulatu kept explaining to Gu Wei and Liu Yifei, then handed the reins to Gu Wei, jumped on the horse and followed them.
"Thank you, Brother Ratu."
Liu Yifei said with a smile beside her.
"You're welcome. Let's speed up slowly. Don't go too fast."
Mandulatu was wearing a black Mongolian robe, his hair was combed like a skyrocket, and there was a smile on his face.
"Brother Latu, there are a lot of people coming here to travel at this time of year."
Looking up, I saw many tourists galloping on the nearby grassland.
"The economy has improved over the past two years, and more people have come here to travel. We have also been asked to serve as equestrian coaches."
"drive."
Compared with Gu Wei, Liu Yifei was obviously a better rider. She raised the whip and started to speed up.
At this moment, the blue sky and the open grassland make people relax unconsciously.
After the two finished horse riding, they took various selfies. When they go out, women's talents are revealed.
Along the way, Liu Yifei kept clapping, clapping, clapping, and made Gu Wei numb.
In her words, these are all testimonies of their love.

Han Sanping's office.
"Director Han, the invitation list has been sent out, and several big directors have replied that they will be there on time."
"Where's Director Gu?"
Han Sanping raised his eyelids and asked casually.
"Um, Director Gu is traveling, but he said he'll be there."
"He's quite comfortable traveling."
Hearing this, Han Sanping chuckled and then said, "Let the relevant departments keep a close eye on the promotion of No Man's Land."
It’s not easy for this movie to be released. I hope it can achieve a breakthrough at the box office.
"Okay, Director Han."
"Harry Potter 6" was released, along with a few Hong Kong and domestic films that were relatively decent.
The box office of "Nanjing! Nanjing!" did not even break 100 million. Compared with the investment in this film, Star Media and China Film Group suffered a huge loss.
Lu Chuan's life in the circle is becoming increasingly difficult. After all, a director who cannot make money will definitely not be liked by others.
This year's Venice Lido Island was the venue for the film festival. Unlike previous years, the construction of the Palace of Cinema and surrounding facilities had just begun as the opening ceremony was about to begin.
The Venice hotel, which had not undergone any renovations in the past ten years, spent a lot of money this year.
The place for collecting certificates, which was originally located on the side of the Casino Palace, has now been changed into a large restaurant with black and white tones and surrounded by green vegetation.
It is said to be directly under the Italian Ministry of Agriculture and its purpose is to promote Italy's high-quality agricultural food and cooking.
Perhaps because there were almost no domestic works on display, domestic media reports focused on the changes in the environment of the Venice Film Festival.
In addition, the two films "Accident" directed by Hong Kong director Cheang Pou-soi and "Prince of Tears" directed by Taiwan director Yang Fan were featured in domestic media.
Netizens did not pay attention to these unknown directors, and most of their attention was focused on the promotion of the premiere of "Founding of a Republic" a week later.
.........
During the time that Gu Wei was away, Song Ge slowly adapted to the daily work of Xingchen Film and Television Company and began to be responsible for more things.
The first one is the filming of "Painted Skin 2", which involves a large amount of financial expenditure and personnel deployment, and is not an easy task.
In addition, there is the promotion and distribution of Ning Hao’s new movie. Although most of the things are left to China Film Group to handle, the company also needs to cooperate.
"Mr. Song, these are the investment inquiries the company received this year."
The assistant handed over a document and said with a smile.
This newly hired senior executive has a special hobby. He likes reading scripts, and he reads every script carefully.
"Okay, leave it there. I'll take a look at it later."
After joining Star Films, Song Ge discovered that although the company was small in scale, it had complete departments, and there were dedicated people responsible not only for the domestic film market, but also for the film markets in other parts of Southeast Asia.
For example, collecting information, purchasing copyrights, selling scripts, everything is done in an orderly manner.
"Mr. Song, how are you? Are you adapting to the company?"
Wang Chen pushed open the office door and asked.
"It's fine. Everything is going well so far."
As they chatted, they talked about the future development of the company.
"The pace is still too slow. The company has sufficient funds and always has a lot of excellent story copyrights and personnel. It should speed up its development."
Song Ge has been sorting out his development plan these days. He plans to continue recruiting directors and screenwriters in the industry and try to write creative scripts.
Even if the company doesn't have time to shoot the script you wrote, you can find other people to collaborate with to avoid wasting it.
"My boss has mentioned this before, but the famous screenwriters in the circle are still clinging to the idea of creating their own works behind closed doors. Some of them have not responded to my invitations several times."
Wang Chen explained.
"We still need to recruit more people. If well-known screenwriters don't come, we can hire new ones. The screenwriter team should not be afraid of having too many people. They only make a few dollars a month, and the combined cost of a group of people is not as much as the salary of a celebrity artist.
Although Director Gu is also an internationally renowned screenwriter, he doesn’t have much time. Our company mainly produces special effects blockbusters, and the script is too important. There must be no plot loopholes. We cannot afford this risk. "
Song Ge previously worked in management and has his own unique insights in this area.
"Yeah, I think so too. When the boss comes back, we can discuss it together."
Compared with Song Ge, Wang Chen is a more mediocre manager. He can do well in the tasks you assign to him, but it is difficult for him to make breakthroughs. This is the difference in thinking.
