Behind the scenes of the entertainment industry

If we say that the person Zhou Cheng is most afraid of in this big family, his father Zhou Kezhi can only be ranked second, and the first person must be his aunt Zhou Kemin.

There is no way, this is a psychological shadow left from childhood.

When Zhou Cheng was still in kindergarten, Zhou Kezhi was transferred to Pingchang District. In order to take care of Zhou Kezhi, Zhou Cheng's mother Lin Li was also transferred to a middle school in Pingchang District to teach. In order to ensure the safety of the two children

To study and grow, siblings Zhou Ya and Zhou Cheng were entrusted to Zhou Kemin's family.

Zhou Ya was already in elementary school at that time, and Qian Duo became her follower after being taken care of by Zhou Ya. She was like a biological sister and basically did not play with Zhou Cheng. But Zhou Cheng faced the strictest woman in the Zhou family.

Especially after Zhou Cheng entered elementary school, Zhou Ya and Qian Duo's grades were always among the best, which further highlighted Zhou Cheng's relative mediocrity.

In order to give Zhou Kezhi an explanation, Zhou Kemin became even more strict with Zhou Cheng, which made Zhou Cheng always feel frightened when he saw her. He had a certain psychological shadow until he grew up.

After Zhou Cheng carefully said hello to his aunt, he took out the key and opened the door. He looked at the other three women with unkind eyes and complained all over, especially Qian Duo who made faces at him.

"Did you do something wrong? Why did you run away as soon as you saw me?" When they came to the yard, Zhou Kemin sat in front of the round table and looked at Zhou Cheng and asked.

"It must be so. You don't know what kind of temper this boy has. He has always run away after making mistakes since he was a child." Zhou Qian was pregnant and pulled up another chair to sit next to her aunt.

"Girl, don't listen to Sister Qian's nonsense." Zhou Cheng raised the vegetables in his hand and said with a smile: "I wasn't running just now. Didn't I see you guys coming and wanted to buy more vegetables?

.”

"You can also cook when you're shopping for groceries?" Hearing her brother's words, Zhou Ya looked disbelievingly and looked at Gu Xintong who was standing aside.

"I don't know how she can." Zhou Cheng looked at his aunt with a similarly scrutinizing look and hurriedly explained: "This is Gu Xintong, the tenant who rents my house."

"Tenant?" Zhou Kemin frowned slightly and looked at the bungalow in the yard.

"She lives in this room, and we are usually like buddies. By the way, Brother Tong used to learn judo." Zhou Cheng also understood the general idea of ​​his aunt, and then explained it.

"Mom, this is Gu Xintong. Isn't he very handsome?" As soon as Qian Duo spoke, Zhou Chenggong knew who the instigator was today and couldn't help but cast a dissatisfied look at her.

"Hello, Xiao Gu, I am Zhou Cheng's aunt." Zhou Kemin also glared at Qian Duo, and then greeted Gu Xintong.

"Hello, aunt." Gu Xintong didn't expect that she would be involved. She was originally going to say hello and return to her room.

"Your name is Gu Xintong, right? Which two words?" Zhou Kemin looked at Gu Xintong obviously more than he looked at Zhou Cheng and Shan.

"The old is new and the new is new, the tung tree is the same as the sycamore tree."

Zhou Kemin nodded: "The clear dew flows in the morning, the new tung trees are blooming, and it feels like a spring outing. This is a poem by Li Qingzhao. It seems that you are born in spring."

"Yes, my birthday is in March." Gu Xintong was a little surprised. Zhou Cheng had already revealed the origin of his name, but he didn't expect that his aunt also knew it in detail.

Qian Duo explained to Gu Xintong: "My mother is a literature teacher at Huaxia Communication University and has done some research on ancient poetry."

"My aunt has some research, she is a master in this field." Zhou Cheng followed up with a compliment: "If there is a poetry conference in the future, aunt, you can be a judge."

"Stop following the flattery, what kind of food did you buy? We are going to have lunch at your place today." Zhou Kemin looked at the food Zhou Cheng was carrying.

"I bought pork ribs, mandarin fish, river shrimp..." Zhou Cheng came forward and said to please: "Zhou Ya and the others didn't say you were coming. I'll buy some eels later. I'm so greedy for you to cook them."

The eel has been around for a long time.”

Zhou Kemin took the ingredients to the kitchen. After looking around, he found that there were a lot of missing ingredients. In addition, Zhou Cheng wanted to eat eel, so he called Gu Xintong to go to the vegetable market to purchase.

Watching his aunt go out, Zhou Cheng didn't bother to question his sister: "Didn't we agree that just the three of you would come over today to beat dates? Why did you bring your aunt too?"

"It was only when I went to pick up Duoduo that I found out that my aunt was also resting. I heard that we were coming to beat jujubes, so I stopped by to see you."

Zhou Cheng approached his sister Zhou Ya and cousin Zhou Qian and asked in a low voice: "Is it really just playing dates? Nothing else?"

"Did you do something bad?" Zhou Ya stared at Zhou Cheng and asked, "Whose is that Audi outside? It can't be yours, right?"

"It's mine. I exchanged it for 10% of the company's shares."

"What?" Zhou Cheng's words made Qian Duo on the side exclaim: "It wouldn't be worth this car if your shabby company was sold."

Qian Duo saw this car last time and thought he had borrowed it for the premiere. Unexpectedly, it turned out to be Zhou Cheng's, and he had exchanged 10% of his shares for it.

"You have so much money, who do you look down on?" Zhou Cheng said sternly: "For just 10% of the shares, he still has to pay the difference to me in the end. I am no longer a leather goods company."

"You're not going to do anything outside in the name of dad, are you?" Zhou Ya didn't believe it.

"Don't worry about this. My money is all legitimate income. I have a script to be made into a movie. The investment alone will cost 10 million."

"Is this what Brother Zhao is looking for you for?"

"It's somewhat related. Huang Teng and I had a bit of a quarrel and lost his face..." Zhou Cheng then simply explained the matter to his three sisters.

Zhou Qian has the most irritable personality among the sisters. After hearing the general situation, she couldn't help complaining: "It's the fault of the Huang family and his son, why did Zhao suppress him directly? Then people will think that Zhou Cheng is easy to bully.

"

"Brother Zhao is probably worried that someone will use this incident to reflect on Zhou Cheng's background." As a lawyer, Zhou Ya considered it relatively comprehensively: "The other party is an old actor who has been famous for a long time and has always had a good reputation. If this incident is true

It was revealed without suppressing it. The other party was thinking about his son's future and was not sure whether it would distort right and wrong, which would make it difficult for Zhou Cheng to defend himself."

Today Zhou Kemin is here, and at noon she is the chef, and Gu Xintong helps out, and together with three kitchen novices, they work on a table of dishes.

After lunch, Zhou Ya and the other three began to formally play jujube, as if it were a ritual. From a cabinet in the living room, they took out the mat they had purchased before and spread it under the jujube tree. Then they took out the mat at the corner of the yard.

Gu Xintong always thought it was a bamboo pole used for drying and preparing to beat dates.

The whole process was directed by the pregnant Zhou Qian, Zhou Ya came to fight, and Qian Duo took Gu Xintong to pick it up together.

Dates are small dates from Cangzhou. The climate here in Yanjing is close to that of Cangzhou. There is no difference in the quality of the dates. The only difference is that the number of dates is smaller.

"Mom, try it. This year's dates are quite sweet." Qian Duo washed a few dates and brought them over. He looked at Zhou Cheng and said with dissatisfaction, "The production of dates this year is a bit small."

Zhou Cheng used his feet to kick the jujube pits he had eaten last night and had not thrown away under the table: "This year is a small year, so there are few jujubes, and birds often come to eat them."

"Believe it or not." Qian Duo glanced at Zhou Cheng with disdain, and then went to compete with Zhou Ya for the right to use the bamboo pole.

Zhou Kemin ignored the playfulness of several girls and ate a few washed jujubes, which still tasted the same as before. Looking at Zhou Cheng who was sitting next to him eating, he asked: "It's been more than a year since you graduated. Do you have any plans?"

Don’t apply for my graduate school, go for further studies.”

"Gu, please let me go." Zhou Cheng shook his head: "I'm busy making a movie now."

When Zhou Cheng was taking the college entrance examination, he deliberately avoided passing the test and applied for Nortel, just because he didn't want to be under his aunt's nose. Now it is even more impossible for him to apply for Zhou Kemin's graduate school.

"Is what Duoduo said true? Did you really write a movie script? And you won an award?"

"It must be true. Just wait, I'll show you the script."

In order to dispel his aunt's doubts, Zhou Cheng not only took out the printed script, but also brought over his award-winning certificate in Ningxi to testify. This made Zhou Ya and others give up playing Zao and come over.

"Is it true? It can't be a fake certificate, right?" Zhou Ya took the certificate and looked at the sun, looking for the watermark.

Zhou Qian looked at the script in Zhou Kemin's hand: "Zhou Cheng also has some scripts. Sister, please show them to me after you read them."

Qian Duo took a date and joked: "Okay, it's not bright in the east, but it's bright in the west. Our poor student can actually win an award for his script."

"Qian Duoduo, if you don't show me due respect, I won't show you this movie." Among the three sisters, the only one Zhou Cheng dared to quarrel with was Qian Duo.

"It should cost a lot of money to make a movie, right?" Zhou Kemin handed the script to Zhou Qian and looked at Zhou Cheng and asked worriedly.

"The budget is 10 million, and the Yanjing People's Art Association will invest 3 million. I will invest the remaining funds from other places."

"Many foreign film and television companies use loans to make movies." Qian Duo, who was reading scripts with Zhou Qian, raised her head and said, "Should we ask old money to approve a loan?"

Qian Duo's father and Zhou Cheng's uncle are the vice president of the Yanjing Branch of China Construction Bank, focusing on loan approval. This is also the origin of the nickname "Qian Duoduo" that Zhou Cheng gave Qian Duo since he was a child.

Zhou Cheng winked at Qian Duo. He did not say that in order to maximize profits, he would invest one million as start-up capital. This money was to use his current house to apply for a loan from his uncle.

"Auntie, don't worry. There is an artist in our company. Now he can earn 20,000 yuan per performance. When I don't shoot a movie next year, I can earn about the same."
