Rebirth Starts From 2006

Rogers Restaurant, opposite Xiushui Street, No. 12 Jianwai Street, Chaoyang District,

There were several tables of people sitting in the restaurant, but they were all pretentious, and it looked like they were not having a serious meal.

In the corner, several cameras were set up, shooting at them.

Outside the restaurant, there were several circles of people gathered inside and outside.

These are just for fun,

There is a star acting inside. Although this star doesn't look familiar, who cares? As long as there is a star watching!

Especially now that it is the Beijing Olympics, there are countless tourists from out of town. Some people flock to the streets because they have no place to go, and there are even more people watching the excitement.

As soon as Boss Chen and his party arrived, they were personally welcomed in by Director Wang and Director Zhao who had just arrived.

Although it has only been a few months since we last met, Boss Chen’s identity is different now.

A few months ago, they only knew that Boss Chen was the founder and chairman of Damai, and he was considered the number one figure in the new generation of domestic business circles.

But now that a few months have passed, Boss Chen’s identity has changed again.

In addition to being the original founder of Damai, he is now also the chairman of the internationally renowned financial institution Rainbow Group, a well-known investor at home and abroad, a good friend of the international superstar Jackson, and the first Chinese to log on to the Oprah talk show...

No matter which identity you have, they are all worthy of Director Zhao’s careful treatment.

Director Zhao was very polite, and Chen Yang, Liu Hongbo and others were also very satisfied, but the process of entering the restaurant was a bit difficult.

I can't help it. Who makes Boss Chen so handsome today? It caused the crowd to scream one after another, and the cell phone cameras kept clicking.

If it weren't for the missing red carpet, I would be treated like an emperor and a superstar.

Fortunately, there were enough staff on site today, and there were three bodyguards behind him to protect him. Boss Chen held Zou Rong's hand, and Liu Hongtao and Xia Yumeng protected both sides, and finally got inside without any danger.

After finally welcoming the distinguished guest into the restaurant, Director Zhao, who was wearing a T-shirt and a white baseball cap, smiled and said, "Mr. Chen is in such a good mood today that he came to inspect it in person!"

"Zhao Jieyan emphasizes birds,"

Chen Yang laughed and said, "I've never seen him filming before. Are you curious? I happened to know that Director Zhao was filming, so I came over to open my eyes."

"Mr. Chen's promotion,"

Director Zhao took a look at the filming scene. Lin Yuan, the company's little girl and one of the heroines of this drama, was standing aside with a stiff expression and fidgeting. He couldn't help but frown slightly. When he turned around, he was smiling again.

"This scene is just a small scene. There is nothing interesting to watch. If Mr. Chen is really interested, there will be a big scene later. Could you please wait a moment?"

When there is a big drama, he naturally has the final say. It is rare for Boss Chen to be so enthusiastic, so Director Zhao will not dampen Boss Chen's interest.

But Chen Yang waved his hand gently, "No need to bother, I'm just a layman, just watching the fun, you can follow your own pace, don't worry about me."

Director Zhao secretly complained, how dare I ignore it?

Maitian has acted in at least a dozen films. Previously, you didn’t go to Hairun’s Serious Case Group 6, and you didn’t go to Guangguang’s film. You came when I was filming.

Hum hum, if you are not here for your artist today, I will swallow this script alive!

But the expression on his face did not change, he laughed and said, "It's really not a change of pace, everything is going according to plan,"

Then he turned to look at Director Wang, "Old Wang, what's the next scene?"

The two are old partners, and they know what they mean by just one look.

Not to mention that Director Wang is not stupid. The two CEOs of Maitian Culture came hand in hand with the boss behind the scenes. Can you not film some scenes of Maitian artists?

Immediately, he pretended to open the shooting schedule, and said nonsense with a serious face, "Oh, the next scene is the scene where Lei Lei and Pili meet. There are two scenes, one is at the entrance of the game arcade, and the other is at Lei Lei's home."

Lei Lei is the fourth female lead in the play, played by Yaya, an artist from Wheatfield Company. Originally, this role was originally cast by another person, but Director Zhao rejected that person for Wheatfield's investment.

"oh,"

Director Zhao nodded equally sincerely, "So, is this over?"

Director Wang immediately said, "I just tried a few shots, and we're going to start shooting now."

After saying that, he asked the assistant director to prepare, while he went behind the monitor and stared.

This scene is indeed a small scene, with Lin Yuan as the main character. The scene is about Pili going back to England, but she has no school and nothing to do when she returns.

So, she decided before boarding the plane to stay in BJ secretly,

In order to show his determination to start a business and open a restaurant, Pili decided not to eat meat when ordering food at the restaurant.

It's just such a play.

Boss Chen listened to Director Zhao's personal explanation and watched the actors acting a little stiff but with great aura. He couldn't help but secretly complain,

You are all people who are planning to start a business. If you don’t eat meat in a restaurant, it means you are saving money and showing your determination?

Is it vulgar?

When serious people start a business, they only eat box lunches that cost a few dollars each. Just like me back then, a portion of fried rice noodles can solve stomach problems.

If you eat vegetarian food here, it will be more expensive than ordering hard dishes in a small restaurant!

Where is Rogers Restaurant?

He didn't know much about it before going to the United States, but after staying in the United States for more than a month, he actually ate at this Rogers restaurant twice, and he got to know this brand.

Rogers International Chain Group was co-founded in August 1991 by John Brown, one of the original founders of KFC, and American country singer Kenny Rogers.

With the background of American country music culture, the restaurant specializes in American "home cooking", that is, non-fried food. Therefore, it has been recommended as the best health food by the American Heart Association.

This is not the key, the key is,

In 1995, this brand was introduced into China, targeting the blank market between Western-style fast food such as KFC and hotel-style Western food.

Comparatively speaking, they belong to the group that has stepped on KFC and Pizza Hut and has high-end Western food on its head.

Compared with the positioning of home-cooked food in the United States, the domestic ones are obviously higher, and they can be regarded as a consumption place for the petty bourgeoisie.

Are you going to a place like this to eat vegetarian food in order to save money?

I'm afraid I need to take medicine!

Next to him, Director Zhao was still explaining enthusiastically, "This is a youth story of three cousins ​​in a family. They entered the society as adults at the same time and felt the cruelty of society.

Everyone found that they had to face a very difficult proposition, but they were unyielding. Not only did they use their wisdom to give the perfect answer, but they also defied their parents' will. Their personality and ideals are where they want to go..."

Boss Chen nodded seriously,

Well, this is very youthful

Shit!

Zou Rong watched Lin Yuan's performance curiously, as well as the surrounding camera lenses. He didn't even bother to hear about his personality and ideals.

Her past two years have not been in vain. Whether it was the entrepreneurial failure cases she handled in the bank's legal department, or following Chen Yang and Huang Shan to experience company management and discussions on new project launches, she understood one truth.

In this world, all success, whether inevitable or accidental, has complex factors behind it.

Direction, products, funds, connections, decision-making, operations...etc., etc. If there is a problem in any link, it may cause the business to fail.

Therefore, just listen to the chicken soup for the soul that "personality and ideals are the destination for them to go to", whoever believes it is a fool!

But she wouldn't be stupid enough to argue with Director Zhao. Just watch what's on TV. As long as the audience thinks it's good, nothing else matters.

I don’t know whether it’s because Director Wang is not very demanding, or because the style of this drama is just that simple. With only two lines, this scene is passable.

Only then did Lin Yuan, led by Director Wang, come over to say hello to Boss Chen, "Hello, Mr. Chen, I have admired your name for a long time. Only when I saw you in person today did I realize that hearing a hundred times is worth seeing!"

Her words really came from the bottom of her heart. In the entertainment industry, handsome male stars are not uncommon, but there are only a few big names who can compare with Boss Chen.

I feel a little sad when I think about it.

If you have such conditions, why would you want to start a business? Wouldn't it be a good idea to enter the entertainment industry and rely on your reputation to make a living?

To this completely unfamiliar star, Boss Chen just replied politely, shook hands, and ended.

Director Zhao, who was on the side, looked at Chen Yang thoughtfully.

Chen Yang happened to see his expression, was slightly stunned, and said with a smile, "Director Zhao, what's wrong?"

Director Zhao came back to his senses, suddenly laughed, and said to Chen Yang, "Mr. Chen, I suddenly have an idea that I want to discuss with you."

Chen Yang rolled his eyes slightly, "Um, what?"

"That's right,"

Director Zhao rubbed his hands and grinned, "It was Xiao Lin's words just now that inspired me. You see that you have such a good image. Just now, people outside regarded you as a big star. Otherwise, you would be in this play, A guest appearance?”

ah?

Let me make a guest appearance?

Chen Yang was stunned immediately.

Beside him, Zou Rong and others were also stunned for a moment, and then they all looked at him.

Boss Chen is acting?

This is a big gimmick!

Director Zhao was still trying to convince, "Really, I had this idea when we last met. When I look at it again today, to be honest, with your image, it's a pity not to be on camera!"

Chen Yang blinked and finally realized,

Hehe, this was Amy's fault. If she hadn't put herself through so much trouble, would she have been pestered by Zhao to make a guest appearance for him?

Although he was feeling complacent, Boss Chen still declined, "Director Zhao, this is such a big joke. I don't know how to act, so how can I give you a cameo? Forget it, forget it!"

"You don't need to know how to act. Just be whatever you are doing now."

Upon hearing this, Director Zhao did not refuse directly, and immediately continued to work hard, "Actually, it is just an easter egg for the audience. We can just add a scene temporarily. If it doesn't work, we will be done with it if we don't cut it in."

But I secretly made up my mind that no matter how Boss Chen performs later, it is absolutely impossible to delete this scene!

Don't mention anything else, just the gimmick of Boss Chen's guest appearance is worth one point in the ratings!

Director Wang was also encouraging, "Mr. Chen, it's just one shot, it's really not difficult,"

In just a few sentences, he even thought of the script, "Just treat it as if you are here to eat, sit in the seat next to Xiaolin just now, and then order normally.

As for me, I will give you a close-up and then take a photo of Xiao Lin in the back. That’s it. It’s that simple.

You don’t have to worry about your lines, you can say them however you want, we can dub them later, and then you just need to be careful not to look at the camera! "

Director Zhao quickly interrupted, "It's okay to look at the camera, I can edit it!"

As long as Boss Chen can agree to make a guest appearance, nothing else matters!

"No, no,"

Boss Chen is still waving his hands.

But I don’t want to be backstabbed by the people around me,

Zou Rong said with bright eyes, "How about you give it a try? It's just for fun anyway!"

"Yep,"

Director Zhao quickly nodded and said with a smile, "It's just a joke."

Then he looked at Zou Rong and said, "You can also go together, the man is talented and the woman is beautiful, they are a perfect match!"

When he heard these words, Lin Yuan's eyes twitched slightly at the side.

One looks to be at least 1.8 meters tall, and the other is less than 1.6 meters tall. The difference is more than 20 centimeters. How do they look so matched?

but,

He didn't pay much attention just now, but when he turned his attention to this woman, Lin Yuan suddenly discovered that this little woman and Boss Chen seemed to be quite harmonious standing together.

Could this be the legendary couple's appearance?

Upon hearing Director Zhao's invitation, Zou Rong's face froze slightly.

Is this considered to be a case of causing the fire to fall on oneself?

At this time, Chen Yang smiled at her and said, "It's not impossible for me to make a guest appearance, just come with me!"

Well,

Zou Rong grinned awkwardly, "It's over, I'm really burning myself!"

So, two minutes later, Chen Yang and Zou Rong walked outside, then held hands and strolled inside as usual.

Behind them, someone in the crowd of onlookers immediately said, "Let me just say they are actors. They have already started acting. They look so handsome, they must be actors!"

"Strange?" Another person was a little confused, "Why does that person look like Chen Yang?"

"Maybe it's Chen Yang, he's also acting."

"Pull him down, the billionaire comes out to act for you, just think about it!"

The crowd suddenly burst into laughter.

…

In the restaurant, filming continues,

Zou Rong was a little nervous at first, but she found that Chen Yang performed very naturally, and she gradually relaxed.

After sitting down, Zou Rong couldn't help but move closer to him and whispered, "Aren't you nervous?"

The staff member who was doing simultaneous radio was slightly startled and looked at Director Zhao unconsciously.

Director Zhao, who directed it himself, made an OK gesture to indicate that he should continue.

Isn’t it just off topic? It’s a joke, just dub it later!

In the camera, Chen Yang turned to look at her and said with a smile, "What are you so nervous about? You forgot, I am someone who has experienced big scenes. Today's small scene is nothing!"

Director Zhao's eyes lit up when he heard this.

Very good, the lines between the two did not mention filming at all, they can be used directly, and this sentence is very suitable for Boss Chen's identity!

Who is Boss Chen?

I have filmed commercials, hosted product launches, and given speeches to tens of thousands of people.

As far as the scene is concerned, today’s event is indeed a trivial matter!

The filming was still going on, and Boss Chen performed very steadily, as if he was really here for dinner.

As for Zou Rong, although she couldn't help but look at the camera a few times, these were just minor problems.

So, Boss Chen’s TV drama debut was just one step away!

“Very good, very good,”

After shouting "ka", Director Zhao immediately stood up and clapped his hands, "Mr. Chen, your camera skills are very sophisticated, better than many professional actors. How about you consider becoming an actor part-time!"

Chen Yang smiled and waved his hands, "No, no, no, no, you know what you are doing, I'd better not come to harm the crew!"

Director Zhao laughed and stopped mentioning this matter.

After all, he is also the boss of a large group. It is okay to make a cameo occasionally. It is really impossible for him to make this a career.

With things settled here, the group went to watch the filming of the next scene.

This is the good thing about urban dramas. Everything about the scenes is ready-made. Once you get to the place, you can shoot after clearing the place.

At the door of a game room, Boss Chen finally met Yaya, another artist from his company.

While the crew was still preparing, Yaya, who had put on makeup, rushed over and greeted the company leaders first, "Mr. Liu, Mr. Xia."

Then he turned to Boss Chen, bent down slightly, with a signature smile on his face, "Hello, Mr. Chen!"

"Okay," Chen Yang smiled and stretched out his right hand, shook hands first, and then said with a smile after letting go.

"I won't talk about painting cakes. Mr. Xia and Mr. Liu should have told you that anyway, you are now the leading actress of our wheat field. Don't worry about opportunities. If you perform well, you will be successful."

When Yaya heard this, her eyes suddenly lit up. Did she get a personal promise from the big boss? !

Then he nodded repeatedly, "Thank you, Mr. Chen, I will work hard!"

Lin Yuan, who was standing aside, couldn't help but be filled with envy after hearing this.

Although she is also the heroine appointed by Director Zhao, and has the title of 'Little Talent', the competition in Xinbaoyuan is also fierce.

Not to mention anything else, the resources of the other two heroines in this drama are no less than hers, or even more.

When there are more people, resources are spread thin, and even if they are taken seriously, they will be limited.

Unlike Wheatfield, the resources are far beyond those of ordinary companies. The key is that there are still only a few artists, so there is absolutely no need to worry about insufficient resources.

For example, in the two dramas that have just been completed, the wheat field clearly had the opportunity to stuff people into it, but because there was no one to stuff it in, the opportunity was wasted.

This is also the main reason why a new company like Maitian can easily steal people from China Theater and Beijing Film Academy.

Now that Yaya has been appointed by Boss Chen, she will definitely take off in the future!

but,

She rolled her eyes, and the smile on her lips grew a little thicker.

So what if you are the queen of wheat fields? Can you get the popularity of your boss?

When I think of myself appearing in the same frame as Boss Chen, the envy in my heart fades a little.

Based on Boss Chen's popularity alone, this scene will definitely be watched repeatedly by countless people. In this way, I can also take advantage of the trend and become popular!
