Entertainment World: The Wild God of Gourmet

(In the last two days, I concentrated on coding and asked for a few monthly tickets!)

...

For this dinner, the guests and the host had a great time.

It was getting late, everyone left one after another, and Chen Ergou also got up to send Principal Wang away first. Principal Wang drank a lot of wine when he was happy, and his girlfriend drank more than him, so the couple were worried about driving back to Chen Ergou.

Fortunately, Zhang Zhengyang doesn't like drinking, so it's okay to ask Lao Zhang to give him a ride.

Before leaving, Principal Wang grabbed Chen Ergou's clothes from the car window and said, "Waiting for my call tomorrow, I will help you to see the house."

Chen Ergou said with a smile: "Then you can get up early, don't call at eleven or two o'clock. Or I'll call you and wake you up."

"No, who doesn't know that you get up early and go to bed early. If you call me at seven or eight in the morning, you will wake me up and throw your phone directly."

Chen Ergou said with a smile: "Don't worry, you drank tonight, you must go to bed early. You can also exercise when you get up early tomorrow morning. I have another plan after seeing the house, and I will try it."

"what's the plan?"

"Secret!... Absolutely exciting."

Principal Wang rolled his eyes and said angrily: "It's really boring to chat with you, see you tomorrow. Let's drive."

Zhang Zhengyang started the car, and the Bentley luxury car drove away.

After seeing off Principal Wang and returning, Li Zhongli and the others did not leave in a hurry.

Cai Yinong looked at Li Zhongli meaningfully, and said, "Director Li, what do you think of that matter?"

Li Zhongli is soft-spoken and soft-handed. He has both. What else can he say? He nodded and said: "Ergou has a good image, is popular, has high IQ and EQ, and is online. As long as his acting skills are good, this male lead is fine. Yes. I have no problem with this matter, you can tell him."

As soon as Chen Ergou returned, he heard others talking about him, he didn't understand, so he asked, "What are you talking about?"

Cai Yinong smiled and said, "I was just about to tell you that I actually have something to discuss with you when I come to you this time."

"The company is preparing a drama series recently. Shi Shi is the leading role, and Xiaoxin is also one of the main characters, but the male lead has not been found. I have also interviewed a few times before.

Still undecided, we decided to give you a try. "

Chen Ergou's expression was strange, "Acting? Tell me, I'm all ears."

Cai Yinong started to introduce, the heroine Li Shishi and director Li Zhongli were beside him, adding a few words from time to time, it seems that they also agree with him.

So this dinner party has actually been regarded as an interview for yourself?

Only student Lin Gou is envious. He is also one of the protagonists. Strictly speaking, his role is only a supporting role. As a rookie, he is already very satisfied, how can he compare with Lord Dog.

It can be seen that the company has been preparing for a long time. It has done very meticulous preparations from the script to the shooting, and even the casting is no exception. They did not blindly choose those stars, but look at the fit of the roles. Obviously, it has a great influence on this drama. Big expectations. If it was a newcomer who would have the opportunity to play the leading role as soon as he entered the industry, he would jump up for joy. If it was Chen Ergou, who was still struggling in Hengdian a few months ago, he would be equally ecstatic. , but at this time, his thoughts are drifting away...

Looking back on the past, will the trajectory of life continue?

The half-life in the dream has already been revealed, and there is no him in this tricky future, and what he has been doing recently is also trying his best to imprint his own traces on the track of history. But do you really want to be an actor? But in the end, he was timid!

He once made a life choice lying on the hospital bed, but now it is another life choice. Interrupted: "I'm afraid I'm going to disappoint you, Sister Cai, I don't plan to go back to be an actor anytime soon."

"Uh... what did you say?"

It took Cai Yinong a while to realize, "You don't want to act?" For an actor who has been able to play tricks for three years before, it is somewhat unacceptable to suddenly tell you that he will not act.

"Yes."

Everyone looked at each other, Cai Yinong was speechless and said for a long time: "I have already arranged a plan for you, and you will gain popularity through variety shows. After filming the first season of "Wild Eater", you will have a lot of free time. Then I will arrange for you to do it back as a matter of course. If you are old enough to be an actor, as long as you can come up with a few masterpieces, you will be able to stabilize the situation and stand on the front line in a few years."

Chen Ergou rubbed his nose, he didn't expect his future to be arranged so brightly.

The first line... is not so easy to achieve. China can have a few stars who can really stand on the front line, and the Tang people are now only Hu Ge, even Li Shishi. Then look at Lin Gou's envious expression next to him.

"But now you suddenly tell me that you don't want to act anymore, so what do you think? Do you want to keep doing "Survival in the Wild" and be an anchor and variety show star for the rest of your life? Or do you feel that you have suddenly developed and don't want to go any further? .”

The tone was resentful, and there was a posture of hating iron but not steel.

Chen Ergou quickly comforted her, and said, "Sister Cai calm down, I am very grateful to know that you are doing it for my own good. I am naturally unwilling to be a variety show star, but..."

An outdated Internet celebrity is not as good as a chicken. This reality is very cruel.

Don't look at his popularity now, there are countless loyal fans clamoring to follow him for the rest of their lives. Maybe the show "Wild Eater" will be popular for a few more years with its current popularity. But once he can't come up with new things, what if the audience gets tired of watching it?

The most fickle thing in this world is fans. To be a star, surrounded by fans before and after, is very glorious. But what stars are most afraid of is suddenly losing their brilliance and becoming unknown. The psychological pressure they have to bear is far better than other industries. That's why there are so many starlets trying their best to keep climbing, even abandoning their dignity, body, and even morality.

People are like sailing against the current, if you don't advance, you will retreat.

Even the richest man will never stop his accumulation of wealth.

Before stepping out of that realm, he will always be a frog at the bottom of the well, seeing only the sky at the mouth of the well. Only when you stand higher and look up, you will find that there is a vast blue sky above your head.

Chen Ergou poured her a cup of tea with a smile, and said with a smile: "My road has not been smooth sailing, and it is impossible to enjoy this kind of thing after getting rich."

Cai Yinong's expression softened slightly, she wasn't really angry, but she was disappointed because she had expected too much from Chen Ergou, but she didn't get the response she deserved.

People always sigh after losing: If God gives me another chance, what will happen to me. But the results are often sad. Because even if God really opens his eyes and gives him another chance, the vast majority of people are still blind, and they will still sit back and watch the opportunity pass by without being able to seize it.

Chen Ergou said sincerely: "Gou Jian spent 40 years preparing to take revenge, Liu Bang prepared 50 years to become emperor, Jiang Taigong also waited 80 years to catch King Wen of Zhou. As for me... I went from fortune to fame, It only took five months. Most of my fans also like to watch the live broadcast of Survival in the Wild, and it has not yet transformed from liking the show to completely liking me as a person.”

"I am naturally very grateful for the company's ability to support me. But what I need is not to become famous quickly and expand the results. .”

Everyone fell silent and looked at him in surprise.

In this world of fame and fortune, how many people can still keep their original intentions unshakable when fame and fortune come? For the sake of fame and fortune, there are many people who put down their dignity. On the contrary, it is even more weird for some people to confess that they are not prepared enough.

Now even Li Zhongli was thoughtful and looked at this young man differently.

Cai Yinong frowned, "What is your plan?"

"Sister Cai, my show has just started to get on the right track. I still have a lot of places I haven't visited, and I still have a lot of ideas that I haven't put into practice. I don't have enough precipitation now. If I really go to acting, I can't devote myself to it now."

"I have already planned it. The second work after the studio is to prepare a documentary. Chinese people can't leave their mouths to eat. I want to make a travel program on the tip of their tongues, recording daily life of firewood, rice, oil, salt, sauce, vinegar and tea, about China Humanities and food."

Cai Yinong frowned instinctively, documentaries are not what they are good at, nor is it a wise move.

"Do you want to make a food documentary?"

Li Zhongli suddenly spoke up, and said: "With your cooking skills, your understanding of food is naturally extremely high. Making a documentary about food is also a follow-up to your program, which can be regarded as opening up a new path for yourself. And the impact of making documentaries in China is small, even if the filming fails, it doesn’t matter. And after accumulating experience in documentaries, you can switch to a career as a director or producer.”

"But to be honest, Ergou, we are very optimistic about you. The road of documentaries is not easy. The domestic film and television industry is now in a golden age of rapid development, and various themes are emerging in an endless stream, but none of them can really count. A commendable documentary. Do you have a detailed plan?"

"some."

Chen Ergou said with a smile: "I am also planning to use the idle funds in my hand recently to start preparations. The theme is "A Bite of China", which revolves around the Chinese people's pursuit of good food and life. Food is second, and I I want to tell about those neglected humanistic backgrounds, link them together with specific character stories, and tell about the food ecology of all parts of China."

Cai Yinong wanted to say something else, but Li Zhongli took the bait and asked: "Do you introduce food in the form of travel? This is what you are good at. What is your position? Can you tell me more about it?"

Chen Ergou shrugged his shoulders, and said, "The positioning is very clear. It is a 'high-end food documentary'. The whole process is shot with high-definition camera equipment, and I will coordinate the editing and directing."

"It's my first time shooting a documentary. I don't need to make a movie documentary. A TV drama documentary is more suitable for me. The number of episodes will not be too many. According to the theme, there should be seven episodes."

"Each episode is based on the theme and then finds a character story that fits the theme.

The first thing I have to do is copywriting. The production team will read relevant books, do research, and then write the copy. Then send investigators to various places to investigate and collect information, and determine what food needs to be photographed in the diversity episode. "

Finally, according to the actual situation, recruit several crews...Each crew does not need too many people, as long as there are directors and photographers are enough. Go to various places to shoot according to a single food, and find suitable characters in the shooting area to express the food, and shoot the story of the characters carrying the food in this area. "

He narrated his plan, and there was an unstoppable tendency from the moment he opened his mouth: "For example, the first episode, the theme is 'Nature's Gift'."

"Taking representative individuals, families or communities in completely different geographical environments as the protagonists of the story, it tells about the completely different eating habits and life brought about by the huge differences in natural environments, such as arid, humid, hot, and cold regions. Way."

"What I want to shoot is not how exquisite the food is, how delicious it is comparable to a five-star hotel, but to show the characteristics of traditional Chinese food and the most authentic traditional way of life passed down from generation to generation by Chinese people. Let the audience understand how the lotus root and fish they usually eat on the dinner table are produced in different environments."

"This filming process may be very long and painful. But the investment cost is not very large, and everything is within the controllable range. And at present, except for CCTV, there seems to be no company in China that dares to make a documentary like this. My job I was originally the first person to eat crabs (survival in the wilderness), so now I am a maverick, not making TV or movies, and switching to food documentaries, which is also in line with my development."

After saying this, Cai Yinong was also speechless.

She was completely wrong. Chen Ergou was not someone like Lin Xiaoxin who needed her to take care of her like a nanny. Before he signed the contract with him, he had already single-handedly made his own show, and he had made his way out of the live broadcast pan-entertainment circle. , Go straight to the TV station in the mainstream entertainment industry.

Such a person, of course, will not think the same way as an actor.

Lin Xiaoxin looked adoring, and the person in front of him was not much older than him, but in his eyes, the gap between Chen Ergou and him was simply sky-high.

Li Shishi also showed relief. When she first heard that Chen Ergou didn't want to play the leading role, she also felt a little uncomfortable. I haven’t spoken for so long, and I couldn’t help asking until now: “Did you come up with these yourself?… I mean, this idea is great, but there should be difficulties in the actual shooting, Have you considered it all?"

Chen Ergou said with a smile: "Of course one person is not enough. I will find some people to work with. Of course, I also have some ideas. It is because I watch too many BBC documentaries that I suddenly come up with a whim."

"For example, the BBC does not talk about individual people, but about people in interpersonal relationships. When I want to shoot, I don't just talk about individuals. For example, a Tibetan girl, I not only want to shoot her story, but also The story of her and her mother is revealed when the relationship between the characters is presented one by one."

Li Zhongli smiled and said, "Mr. Cai, I think Ergou is right."

"He has a very clear idea about his future. This idea is very good, and you should support it too."

Cai Yinong sighed, and said helplessly, "It's the first time I've met such an independent newcomer, and I feel that my manager is useless."

Chen Ergou hurriedly said: "Sister Cai, please don't say that, without you pulling me into the circle, I'm still hanging out in the anchor room."

Cai Yinong said unhappily: "Stop flattering, I have never influenced your idea. After all, since your idea has been made up, the company will naturally support it."

"What I'm thinking more about now is the profit issue after your documentary is made. You can't really use it as a practice."

"The local Shangxing TV station may not be interested in documentaries. If you only broadcast them on the Internet, you will naturally sell them because of your popularity, but that is not the first choice. Documentaries on the Internet are not valued at all. I heard that CCTV has been planning reforms recently. , the idea that ratings are king may have to change a bit.”

Li Zhongli asked: "Hey, what's going on, is the news accurate?"

Cai Yinong spread his hands and said: "It's just a piece of news. I heard that it is going to launch a charming record time period on CCTV and add a record channel. This is also to compete for more international discourse rights in the future. The specifics have not yet been determined, but I guess it will be this year. I’ll go to find out more news, maybe when Ergou’s current documentary is filmed, there will be a good time.”

Chen Ergou said with a smile: "Sister Cai needs to worry more. If the company wants to invest, I welcome it unconditionally."

Cai Yinong looked much better, and said with a smile: "It's too early to say this now, we will discuss it carefully later."

Seeing everyone off one by one, before leaving, Chen Ergou had the cheek to exchange calls with Li Shishi. Before he could say a few words, Lin Xiaoxin approached him carelessly and wanted to exchange numbers with him, "Master Dog, are you a jungler when you play LOL? , Let's play black together next time."

This guy is really interesting. When we met for the first time, he directly asked him to play games together. Did he just conclude that Chen Ergou would definitely play games?

Chen Ergou smiled and agreed.

After watching everyone leave, he went home and took out the number, hesitating to delete and write a few times, and finally sent a text message to Li Shishi, "It's a pity that I couldn't cooperate with the goddess. I'm afraid to mess up the scene with you. A drama, I hope you don't mind."

After the send button was sent out, I let out a heavy sigh of relief and went home with anticipation.

After washing up, he lay down with Rengar in his arms and put it on. He checked his phone several times, but he never got a reply. I couldn't help being disappointed. Just when he was about to fall asleep, he suddenly received a reply letter, "The gift is very beautiful, thank you."

"..." What does this mean? Does she mind or not?

It's so difficult.

But this was the first text message from the goddess, and it almost didn't make him happy, and he replied almost instantly: "As long as you like it...good night."

"Good night."

Shit, say good night, shouldn't we take the opportunity to chat more, I really want to slap myself.

"Meow"

Rengar looked at him strangely, human beings are so weird, they can be so excited even after sleeping.
