Chapter 228: Once you take a picture, the taste changes
"So...... Who is Zhang Zuting? ”
Seeing the message sent by Lin Wan, Pei Qian's first reaction was confused.
Haven't heard of this person?
After asking Qiandu, I found out that it was an out-of-gas port star.
Lin Wan continued to send a message: "Mr. Pei, we have also selected a lot of Hong Kong stars, and some of them have relatively high asking prices, all of which are more than 5 million. We don't think it's cost-effective, so we look for Zhang Zuting. Although it is not as famous as it used to be, it can be hired for about two million. ”
Pei Qian was unhappy at that time.
Thousands of instructions, why are you still here to pick out the cost of these two or three million for me?
Five million is five million!
But after thinking about it, forget it, after all, the higher the asking price, the more popular Hong Kong Star is, and it comes with its own traffic, in case it really brings a large number of players and makes Pei Qian lose less money, it will be a bit more than worth the loss.
Two million is two million, and the money saved can be spent in other ways.
Lin Wan sent another message and asked: "Mr. Pei, Zhang Zuting will probably go to Beijing the day after tomorrow, do you still plan to go to the scene to see the advertising shooting?" ”
Pei Qian immediately replied: "Well, look, it is said that this is an old drama bone, and he has also won the actor, I will also observe his acting skills up close." ”
"Wait, how's your reception going?"
Lin Wan: "Don't worry, Mr. Pei, it's all arranged." Business car shuttles him and the agent, and the accommodation is arranged in a five-star hotel, which will never drop the price. ”
"What about the food?" Pei Qian asked.
Lin Wan: "Uh...... Tentatively, it was a meal at a hotel, and a high-standard working meal was ordered during the shooting. ”
"It's too lazy, it's a guest from afar, although everyone is just an ordinary cooperative relationship, but the etiquette must be in place. In this way, I will give you the number of the manager of Mingyun Private Kitchen Lin, you make an appointment, and when the time comes, when Zhang Zuting comes, I will go to Mingyun's private kitchen to pick him up first, and then slowly talk about the shooting. ”
Pei Qian pondered, business reception is a legitimate reason, it's not too much to eat at Mingyun's private kitchen, right?
Of course, all business receptions are received from Mingyun's private kitchen, and there may also be some risks, such as ...... Leaking the news.
However, Pei Qian has already thought of ways to avoid risks.
Lin Wan: "Ah, okay Mr. Pei, I didn't think it through, I'll make a reservation!" ”
……
……
Saturday, August 14.
Zhang Zuting got off the plane and set foot on the land of Jingzhou City for the first time.
As a second-tier city in the mainland, Jingzhou does not have a strong sense of existence, and Zhang Zuting knows little about Jingzhou.
However, since he can get two million in one trip, he won't feel troublesome.
Zhang Zuting is over forty years old, although he was also a representative of a handsome young student when he was young, but after all, it is difficult to resist the invasion of time, and now he has gradually polished his acting skills and transformed into a middle-aged and old actor.
Of course, because the film field is undergoing great changes, their group of movie stars are becoming less and less popular, and it is inevitable that they will become outdated.
Therefore, it is difficult for Zhang Zuting to refuse similar money-making opportunities.
Unlike some popular stars and little fresh meat who hug each other before going out, Zhang Zuting is still relatively low-key, and he only brought an accompanying assistant this time.
After all, the other party said that this advertisement can be filmed in one day, and I will go to Beijing on the 14th, rest for one night after receiving the wind, and finish shooting all the advertisements at once the next morning, and then I can leave by plane in the afternoon.
For this trip to Beijing, Zhang Zuting did not have too high expectations.
After all, what kind of big company can a game company in a place like Jingzhou be?
This time the commercial shoot is just a formality.
"Mr. Zhang, please get in the car, our Mr. Pei has prepared a reception banquet for you."
Next to the business car, Lin Wan said with a smile.
……
Mingyun Private Kitchen.
Getting out of the car, Zhang Zuting was a little confused.
What does this mean? Where is this?
In front of him was a villa that looked uncharacteristic, although in Zhang Zuting's opinion, this house was very large, very spacious, and the decoration was also very luxurious, but he also knew that this kind of house was not uncommon in the mainland, and it was not surprising that the owner of a game company could afford such a house.
But the question is, why pick up the wind here?
Could it be that this boss wants to entertain him in his own home?
Zhang Zuting was still confused, Lin Wan had already taken him inside, all the way to the private room with the best view.
The private room is on the third floor of the villa and has a large floor-to-ceiling window through which you can see the view of dusk.
The sun is slowly setting, and the golden sunlight is shining on the infinity pool outside, casting a pale golden afterglow.
The surrounding trees are lush and green, and under the shade of the trees, you can see the entire villa area in the distance, which is quite a feeling of seeing the mountains at a glance.
In the middle of the private room is a dining table, not the kind of large dining table that can accommodate more than a dozen people, but just four people.
The room is clearly well-furnished, whether it is the table and chairs, the paintings decorated in the room, or the napkins and bouquets on the table, all of which fit the environment very well.
This is also after the reservation, the waiters of Mingyun's private kitchen have carefully arranged.
Zhang Zuting suddenly realized that this was not a private residence, but a unique high-end restaurant!
Pei Qian got up to greet him and shook hands with Zhang Zuting: "Mr. Zhang, come from afar, welcome!" Jingzhou is a small place, and there is nothing special about it, so I can only invite Mr. Zhang to have a light meal and please sit down. ”
Zhang Zuting also warmly returned the gift and sat down with the agent.
There are only Pei Qian, Lin Wan, Zhang Zuting and the agent at the table, and in addition, there are waiters who come and go, serving dishes to everyone according to a certain time and frequency.
Pei Qian wanted to find a few more people to accompany him and eat more, but it seemed very chaotic when there were too many people, and there might be a more depressing feeling, so Pei Qian thought about it, and the number of people was smaller, so that Zhang Zuting could enjoy the food without any pressure.
Everyone ate and greeted each other.
Pei Qian doesn't know anything about Zhang Zuting at all, and he doesn't even know what dramas he has acted, but it doesn't matter, anyway, Zhang Zuting doesn't know what games Pei Qian has done, everyone is blowing each other in business, don't take it too seriously.
Fortunately, Lin Wan had done his homework, and casually chatted about the glorious years of Zhang Zuting's youth, which made him feel good.
After eating two bites, Zhang Zuting was stunned to find that the dishes here were inevitably too rich, right?
He has also accepted a lot of banquets over the years, whether it is a friend or a business reception, and he has also eaten a lot of food.
But it's really rare to get such wonderful food today!
Of course, this delicacy comes not only from the variety of seasonings and additives, but from the deliciousness of the ingredients themselves. This is the only way to cook with high-quality ingredients.
The more Zhang Zuting ate, the more shocked he became.
I can't imagine that the small city of Beijing has such a hidden restaurant?
This Mr. Pei invited himself to eat such a precious dish, this sincerity is very sufficient!
Zhang Zuting was not the kind of star who could play big names, he has always been known for being approachable, and now he chats with Pei Qian while eating, and the more he chats, the more fun he becomes.
The dishes in the early stage are small and delicate, and after eating, the waiter immediately removes them and replaces them with other dishes.
It's delicious, but it's still a bit satisfying.
But soon, the hard dishes came!
After tasting a few exquisite appetizers, the waiter brought a huge king crab, which was inferred from the size to be about ten catties, and I am afraid that the price of the ingredients alone would be six or seven thousand yuan!
Zhang Zuting is okay, after all, he is a person who has seen the world, but his little assistant has obviously not seen this kind of battle, his eyes are straight, and he seems to want to take out his mobile phone to take a picture, but he feels that it is not appropriate.
Pei Qian smiled and said: "Taste it carefully, so as not to miss every trace of deliciousness of the ingredients." Once you take a picture, the taste changes. ”
