Behind the scenes of the entertainment industry

The Xitucheng Road in Chu Ran's mouth refers to the Xitucheng Road auxiliary road next to the west gate of the Film Academy.

Originally there was only one barbecue restaurant here, and its main customers were Nortel students. It was the first place where many Nortel students thought of treating themselves after earning some extra money. Later, due to its large number of BBQ restaurants, not only Jimenqiao

Students from Beijing Normal University and Beijing University of Posts and Telecommunications over there, and even students from Qingbei in the north would come to visit. Then other barbecue restaurants opened one after another, and the entire auxiliary road became a famous food street.

Every night, you will see a row of food stalls, fierce fire, oil smoke, and grilled skewers on the charcoal fire. In front of the building, behind the building, inside and outside the alley, there are crowds of people. Taking advantage of the cool breeze blowing from Xitucheng Road,

Drinking Yanjing and picking up skewers, the long night was wrapped in the dense smoke and the smell of meat.

However, this street was also banned during the urban reconstruction in 2013, which has become a regret in the hearts of many Nortel graduates.

After receiving Chu Ran's call, Zhou Cheng was aroused. Chen Li drove home first to pick up Qian Lele, and Zhou Cheng decided to take a taxi there himself.

Choosing to take a taxi is not because Zhou Cheng is rich now. The total cash in his pocket does not exceed 200 yuan, which is still private money found in a few of his books. The reason why Zhou Cheng rushes there in such a hurry is because Zhou Cheng can't leave it.

The unforgettable fireworks in my memory.

After Zhou Cheng got off the bus, he found that the business on this street was better than he remembered. The nearly ten-meter-wide auxiliary road outside the storefront was full of tables, filled with people who came to have late-night snacks. Some of them even brought their bags late at night.

The person wearing sunglasses must be a celebrity who graduated from Nortel and is already somewhat famous.

"Boss, a few people..."

This street was bustling with people, and there were all the guys soliciting customers on the side of the road. When they saw Zhou Cheng coming, several elder ladies hurriedly came forward to greet him.

"Already have a place..."

Zhou Cheng shook his cell phone, then called Chu Ran to confirm the location, and then he saw a local restaurant called "Northeastern Family" at the very back of a row of food stalls.

This shop is also a restaurant that several people used to frequent. The owner is from Dalian, and his specialty is grilled eggplant, grilled leeks and lamb kidneys. The mantra of the past few people was that they have been too weak recently, so let's go to "Northeastern Family" to replenish our energy.

.

Chu Ran must have just arrived, and there were several people with him. At this time, he was standing at the intersection like a waiter soliciting customers. When he saw Zhou Cheng, he hurriedly waved to him.

Zhou Cheng walked in and took a closer look. In addition to Chu Ran, there were two other people. They were Wu Xiaotian and Tao Ze, Zhou Cheng's two roommates in the same dormitory.

Seeing the three people approaching, Zhou Cheng immediately took a step back and distanced himself: "What's going on today? Let's explain it in advance. Brother, I only have about a hundred yuan in my pocket. If you ask me to pay the bill, I will just turn around and leave.

"

"You don't need to treat me." Chu Ran smiled proudly: "Li Yan will be the host today."

"Li Yan's treat? Is this guy really rich?" Zhou Cheng was very surprised.

During Zhou Cheng's four years at Nortel, apart from Chu Ran, he had a relatively close relationship with the four people in his dormitory.

Chu Ran's family background is the most prosperous among them.

When he first entered the school, he came from Qinghai and said that his family was a cattle farmer. Looking at him, he was relatively simple at ordinary times, which made everyone think that his family was a herdsman and they had always taken good care of him. Who knew that this kid was so bad that he didn't grow up until the third year?

During the Spring Festival of the first semester, his father drove a Range Rover to pick him up. Only then did everyone realize that he was raising tens of thousands of cattle. In addition to his own pasture, his family also had a milk processing company that supplied the entire Ningxi City.

Most of the fresh milk. I haven’t graduated from college yet.

Wu Xiaotian is from Jinmen. His parents run a small business and his family is relatively well-off. This boy has the characteristic of Jinmen people being talkative and is also a living treasure among a few people. Tao Ze's home is in Humen, Guangdong Province. According to this boy's boast, Lin Zexu was famous in the past.

The hole he dug was his family's land. The large-scale development of the Pearl River Delta has allocated several houses to his family, and he also belongs to the owner who has no worries about food and drink. And Tao Ze also gave full play to the characteristics of Guangdong people who are good at eating and dare to eat.

, having lived in Yanjing for several years, he is well aware of the delicacies in various regions of Yanjing.

Only Li Yan, who comes from Gan Province, has the worst family situation. In addition to him, he also has a twin brother and sister in high school, and a grandmother who is almost 80 years old and is bedridden all year round. The family's income depends entirely on his parents farming and working.

Li Yan has been taking jobs as a gunman since his sophomore year. Not only did he earn tuition and living expenses for himself, but he also paid for his younger siblings to attend high school. Everyone in the dormitory admired him, so they didn't let him out during the dormitory get-togethers.

Li Yan, on the other hand, kept the money in mind. Not only did the sanitation in the dormitory be fully provided, but he also helped several people fetch water and did a lot of work of bringing food.

After graduating from college, Zhou Cheng changed his career and became a low-level agent. Wu Xiaotian and Tao Ze chose to take the postgraduate entrance examination and continue their studies. Chu Ran took the wildest path, and his and Chen Li's award-winning short films led him to the circle.

To achieve a certain level of popularity, he has worked on two crews and obtained the final signature rights for both. Only Li Yan is contacting the crews and continuing to be his shooter.

After the Spring Festival, several people got together twice and found out that this guy had worked on five crews in more than half a year, which made several people admire him.

After a few words of greeting, Zhou Cheng asked Wu Xiaotian and the others to go find Li Yan first. He and Chu Ran were going to wait for Chen Li and his wife: "Chu Ran, if you pay the bill tonight, Li Yan probably won't be able to save much money."

"I thought you would take the initiative to pay the bill. I didn't expect that Master Chu would have to spend money in the end." Chu Ran looked at Zhou Cheng's embarrassment and couldn't help laughing.

"You're a rich man. If you don't kill me, I'll kill you." Zhou Cheng first punched him on the shoulder as a sign of punishment, and then whispered to Chu Ran about today's contract signing with Renyi: "It's good for you...

…”

"Really?" Chu Ran looked in disbelief: "I didn't expect Master Chu to rely on you one day."

Zhou Cheng smiled proudly and said: "If you don't want this opportunity, I will give it to Li Yan and the others."

"No, this opportunity must be mine." Hearing Zhou Cheng's teasing, Chu Ran became a little anxious and continued to add weight: "Brother Cheng, Master Cheng, I'll pay for tonight, let alone the barbecue. You

Even Kempinski, my brother in heaven and on earth will not even frown."

"Oh, it's back to heaven and earth, take me with you." As soon as Chu Ran finished speaking, a woman's voice came from behind.

"Brother Li, hello, sister-in-law. What is heaven and earth? Did you say that?" Zhou Cheng and the others turned their heads and saw Qian Lele holding Chen Li's arm with her eyebrows raised. She was looking at a few people. They saw Zhou Cheng and Chu

The two of them shook their heads respectively. Chu Ran's mind was spinning quickly and he said to Qian Lele: "Sister-in-law, we are talking about going to work every day..."

"Yes, we go to work every day. In the next week, we have to stay at the Renyi Hostel to work every day, so we can't accompany you." Chen Li woke up instantly and immediately changed his original longing expression into regret, but he was still attracted by Qian Lele

He practiced the Eagle Claw Kung Fu on his waist, causing his original smiling face to wrinkle in an instant.

"Zhou Cheng, Chu Ran, hello." Qian Lele didn't care about Chen Li's expression at all and greeted the two of them with a smile: "I will return to Star City in two days. During this time, I will help my sister-in-law keep an eye on Chen Li.

, my sister-in-law will definitely thank you very much when the time comes."

"Don't worry, sister-in-law, I will definitely complete the task." Zhou Cheng and Chu Ran didn't care about Chen Li's bitter look and expressed their loyalty to Qian Lele.

"Okay, let's go in as soon as possible. Don't keep Li Yan and the others waiting." Chen Li rubbed it for a while, and the pain in his waist was relieved a lot. He suddenly felt that Qian Lele could not come to Yanjing, and the two continued to live separately.

Pretty good too.

The business of "Northeast Family" is very good. The boss has set up five or six tables at the door, and they are all full. He carefully identified that most of them are teachers and students from Nortel. Unlike Zhou Cheng, Chu Ran, and Chen Li, who are unknown in the school

They are all considered influential people, and I met many acquaintances along the way to say hello.

"Brother Li, Chu Ran, Chengzi, you are here, sit here." Li Yan and the others chose a large platform made up of two rectangular tables. It was more than enough to seat seven people. When they saw a few people coming over, they were originally sitting on the table chatting.

All three people stood up.

"Brother Li, this is my sister-in-law..."

"Sister-in-law, I am Wu Xiaotian, you can call me Xiaotian..."

"I am Tao Ze,..." Tao Ze's nickname is the same as Zhou Cheng's, both came from Chu Ranqi.

"Sister-in-law, what do you want to eat? I'll help you get it..."

"You guys start up, this is my wife, I don't need your attentiveness..." Chen Li stretched out his hand to push away a few people, and said to Qian Lele, "Lele, their grilled fish is pretty good, I'll help you order it."

One..."
