"Dad, you're not asleep yet? I'm not disturbing your rest, are you?" Luo Yun's voice was very respectful on the phone.

"Not yet, Xiaoyun, what's wrong with calling so late?" Jin Yunfeng asked kindly.

"Dad, I'll send you a video. You can watch it first before talking." After speaking, Luo Yun hung up the phone, downloaded the video of Yu Dongqing's sword dance from Station B, and sent it to Jin Yunfeng.

Not long after, Jin Yunfeng's call came back: "Xiaoyun, where did you shoot this video? Who is the man dancing the sword? This swordsmanship looks very cool and handsome, not bad..."

"He is my colleague, Yu Dongqing."

"What, he is Yu Dongqing?! The one who can write songs?" Jin Yunfeng's tone was full of surprise.

"Yes, that's him!" Luo Yun briefly told what happened, but omitted what Xia Qiong told her, and only said that she accidentally saw it while playing on Station B.

"This person must be Yu Dongqing. Although I can't see his face clearly, I can still recognize him this way. Also, the UP owner of Station B is his sister-in-law, and he once uploaded a song written by Yu Dongqing." Luo Yun finally explained. road. .

On the phone, Jin Yunfeng said oh, thoughtfully: "Xiaoyun, you mean to let Yu Dongqing act in a martial arts film? Our company just happens to be preparing to make a new film. If he is really willing, he can give it a try. I'll see not bad."

"Dad, that's not what I meant. Now that I have become famous for writing songs, I probably won't become a martial arts actor. After all, the latter is very hard work."

Luo Yun smiled and said: "What I mean is that since Yu Dongqing knows martial arts, and hasn't "Heroes of the Martial Arts" just started filming? He is on vacation now, so we might as well ask him to help as a temporary martial arts instructor. The fighting effects will be certain in the future." nice!"

"This?" Jin Yufeng fell into thinking.

"Dad, let me tell you something more. I called Yu Dongqing at noon today and told him about it. He replied that he really didn't like those martial arts dramas, so he was not interested in writing songs!"

"Did Yu Dongqing really say that?"

"Well, I didn't care at first, thinking he was joking, but now it seems that he does have his own ideas about making martial arts dramas. Why not let him try it?" Luo Yun said.

"Just give it a try, but it's best to write the theme song!" Jin Yunfeng decided.

This is the point!

As for being a temporary martial arts instructor, if that's what he does, that would be even better.

"Dad, if not, you or Uncle Lu can meet and talk to him directly when it's convenient." Luo Yun suggested.

Jin Yunfeng pondered for a moment and said, "Okay, Uncle Qilu is busy filming in Huairou and has no time. I'll talk to him first and you can make an appointment for me. The best time is tomorrow's dinner time. I have some time. I'll treat him to dinner by the way. The location Just put it in Liuquanju."

"Okay, I've made an appointment to tell you."

"What? Your father-in-law wants to invite me to dinner?"

That night, Yu Dongqing received a call from Luo Yun and was very surprised.

"Who wants to dress up as a hero, holding a sword in hand, looking handsome and unrestrained?" Luo Yunjiao laughed.

"how do you know?"

"Your beautiful sister-in-law likes to post your videos on station B. Brother-in-law, look at how affectionate she is."

"Luo Yun, stop joking." Yu Dongqing frowned slightly.

"Okay, okay, I'm not joking, let's get down to business. That's it."

Luo Yun briefly explained what happened.

Yu Dongqing hesitated after hearing this.

If it were Luo Yun, she would refuse without hesitation.

But it was Jin Yunfeng who took the initiative to invite him. As a big shot in the entertainment industry, he still had to give him face.

Even if you refuse his request in the future, you still have to attend the dinner, and you can't lose your humanity.

"Okay." Yu Dongqing agreed.

"The location is at Liuquanju. It's six o'clock in the evening. Don't be late." Luo Yun also specifically warned.

"I know." Yu Dongqing replied lazily.

In the afternoon of the next day, Yu Dongqing drove her daughter to her grandmother's house, explained the situation, and then drove to Liuquanju.

Liuquanju, located on Xinjiekou South Street, is one of the eight famous residences in Yanjing. It was built during the Longqing period of the Ming Dynasty. The main dishes here are stir-fried, stir-fried, stir-fried, roasted and stewed, with Shandong cuisine being the main dishes.

Entering the private room booked in advance, Yu Dongqing saw a middle-aged man with slicked back hair sitting at the top. Next to him was Luo Yun. She was wearing a Milan-colored printed dress. It had a retro feel, was elegant and beautiful, and stood tall at work. The bun is now hanging on her shoulders like a waterfall, which is very feminine.

"Hello, Mr. Yu, I'm sorry to disturb your vacation." Jin Yunfeng stood up to greet him and extended his right hand.

"Director Jin, you're welcome." Yu Dongqing held the other party's hand.

The two exchanged a few words and sat down, with Luo Yun accompanying them.

The dishes were served quickly.

Three kinds of fried fish and lousy fish fillets are Liuquanju’s signature dishes.

"I have a bad heart, and the doctor said I can't drink, so I can't accompany you. Why don't you let Xiaoyun have a drink with you?" Jin Yunfeng said with a smile.

"You're welcome, just drink some tea. I also drive. It's too difficult to find a driver at this time." Yu Dongqing declined.

In this case, Jin Yunfeng no longer forced it, and the three of them chatted while eating.

"My hometown is in Jinan, Shandong. I like to eat Shandong cuisine. The Shandong cuisine in Liuquanju is the most authentic in Yanjing. I wonder where Mr. Yu's hometown is?" Jin Yufeng asked.

"My hometown is in Huayin, Qin Province, not far from Huashan Mountain." Yu Dongqing said.

"Huayin? Your Huayin accent is very famous."

"Director Jin still knows this?" Yu Dongqing was slightly surprised.

"Brother Yu, my dad not only knows, but has also studied it." Luo Yun interrupted.

"oh?"

"Haha, this is a long story."

It turns out that Jin Yunfeng graduated from the Chinese Academy of Opera and was assigned to the Opera Research Institute of the China Academy of Arts in the late 1980s. Later, he went to Huayin, Qin Province to collect folk music. When he saw the old Huayin opera, he was fascinated by the upright, high-pitched, majestic and heroic spirit. There for three whole months.

"I remember that the village I went to was called Beizhai Village. There was an old man named Yu Zhenzhong. He had a pair of white eyebrows and was very good at singing Laoqiang. In addition to Laoqiang, he was also proficient in Qinqiang, Meihu, Taoqing, etc. He was really versatile. .”

As Jin Yunfeng spoke, he suddenly saw Yu Dongqing staring at him blankly, and couldn't help but ask, "What's wrong?"

"The old man Yu Zhenzhong you are talking about is my grandfather."

"Huh? Such a coincidence? How is your grandfather now?" Jin Yunfeng was a little excited.

"Died ten years ago."

"Oh no wonder there is no news from him." Jin Yufeng sighed: "Not only can your grandfather sing the old tune, but he also added an erhu and a high board to the accompaniment of the old tune to increase the level of the accompaniment. I’m impressed by the rich sound effects.”

After listening to Jin Yunfeng's words, Yu Dongqing also said:

"I was still young at that time, and I often heard my grandfather and a group of old people singing in the wheat field with benches, clappers and yueqins in their spare time, but I didn't quite understand it."

"Yes, it was the first time I heard a performance of Huayin Laoqiang. I was shocked. They actually used jujube wood blocks and stools."

"Xiao Yun, I guess you haven't seen anything called a bench. It's the kind of long bench usually made in rural areas." Jin Yunfeng explained to Luo Yun who was listening to them carefully.

"Can a bench be used as a musical instrument?" Luo Yun looked surprised.
