"Ah Xuan, let me tell you, Fulinmen's owner, Xu Fuquan, was not yet twenty years old. He worked as a chef in a prefect's house in Guangdong in the former Qing Dynasty, and later became the head chef of Sir Ho Dong's house. Fulinmen's banquet The standard is well-known in Hong Kong, especially shark fin and abalone. Waiter, each of the six of us has a double-headed abalone!"

Zeng Zhiwei smiled and introduced it to Li Xuan who was sitting next to him.

"Zeng Zhiwei, I'm going to slap your lungs! Who in Hong Kong doesn't know that Fulinmen is a rich restaurant, I'm not Li Ka-shing, you pay for the double-headed abalone you ordered!" Tan Yonglin almost spat out a mouthful of blood, and hurriedly blocked the conversation.

"Hey, I knew you were stingy. Isn't this just a joke!" Zeng Zhiwei smiled meanly, "The nine-headed abalone is too small, you must be embarrassed yourself, come here with six five-headed abalone!"

The grade of abalone is counted according to the "head", and the number of a pound is called a few heads. The fewer the number of heads, the more expensive the price will naturally be. There is a saying that "a thousand gold can't buy a double-headed abalone", which shows how precious the double-headed abalone is.

During the Qing Dynasty, high-ranking officials from all over the coast went to the capital for pilgrimage, and most of them paid tribute to dried abalone as a gift. One-level officials paid tribute to one head of abalone, and seven-level officials paid tribute to seven heads of abalone. By analogy, abalone is linked to the taste of officials, which has established abalone's status as the "crown of seafood".

"Ah Hong, your Hong Kong sister, have you auditioned for TVB? Alek just signed a contract with TVB to host "Happy Tonight". You can show your face on his show if you have a chance!" Zeng Zhiwei was very familiar with Zhong Chuhong said.

"I went to audition last year, but I didn't succeed!" Zhong Chuhong shook his head embarrassedly.

"Oh, it's alright, you are so pretty, and you'll be able to come out sooner or later! Now accumulate some more experience, and when I start the film next time, I will definitely invite you to act!" Zeng Zhiwei found that he had talked about other people's embarrassment, and immediately made amends arrive.

He pointed to Tan Yonglin, who was sitting across from the round table, and calmly diverted the topic, "Last year, Arun and Ale went to the TVB singing competition together, but he, the lead singer of the Winner Band, lost to Aaron. Let this amateur singer!"

"Where is Alek an amateur! When we formed the Loser Band in 1971, he was already the lead singer. That year, he also defeated Xu Guanjie's Lotus Band at the Hong Kong Youth Music Festival! I was convinced that I lost to him!" Tan Yonglin's face Some couldn't hang up, and immediately found the steps to defend themselves.

"Haha, that's right, I'm very good, okay!" Chen Boxiang also smiled contentedly beside him.

"He hasn't held the microphone for so many years, don't you lose face!" Zeng Zhiwei immediately retorted, "You were in Taipei during this period of time, have you been hooked by a beautiful Taiwanese girl, and you can't be beaten by fans? Clear Duo Ruimi?"

Although several of them are old friends, no matter how much they joke, it won't hurt their feelings. But Li Xuan saw Tan Yonglin's blushing face, and immediately said aloud in a timely manner, turning the topic back to Zhong Chuhong's new play.

"A Hong recently received a call from Director Du Qifeng, asking him to audition for the heroine in a few days. It seems to be a trendy martial arts film!"

"Du Qifeng? I see! He has been learning to film behind Wang Tianlin for several years, and this is the first time he is directing. The play you are talking about is a script written by Zhu Yan, and Liu Songren took it from the left-wing film company Xinlian Pictures. An investment. Du Qifeng and Liu Songren are good friends, and Liu Songren simply takes care of his old friend, pulls him to be the director, and starring himself!"

Zeng Zhiwei immediately introduced the ins and outs of the matter. He switched to filmmaking in 1974, started as a dragon and tiger martial artist, and later worked as a screenwriter, assistant director, and producer. He only directed his first movie "Kick the Pavilion" last year. It can be said that he is very well-connected in this circle. Wide and well-informed.

"The cost budget for his film was one million Hong Kong dollars, but Xinlian Pictures only gave 700,000 yuan and needed to raise 300,000 yuan. During this time, Du Qifeng and Liu Songren have been looking for investment all over the world. It is said that they have only now After raising 150,000 yuan, there is still a shortfall of 150,000 yuan, so it will take some time for the film to start shooting!" Zeng Zhiwei said slowly after taking a sip of tea.

"Do you have Du Qifeng's phone number?" Li Xuan asked.

"What? You don't want to support Ah Hong and spend 150,000 yuan yourself!" Zeng Zhiwei said with a smile, "Although I don't know him well, I asked him out for a meal..."

Zeng Zhiwei saw Li Xuan nodded, and the words he had not finished immediately stopped there. Then he exclaimed, waved his hand and patted Li Xuan's shoulder fiercely, and the tone of his words suddenly raised: "You quiet boy, it turns out that you are a rich and oily big water hose!"

Everyone's attention was suddenly attracted.

"Ah Xuan, are you real?" Zeng Zhiwei asked again.

"It's only a small case of 150,000, but I have to make sure that Ah Hong will be the heroine!" Li Xuan smiled indifferently.

Zhong Chuhong stretched out his hand under the table and pulled Li Xuan's sleeve: "A Xuan, I don't want to act in that play!"

"Viagra, please help me call Director Du when he is free, ask him to come out for a cup of coffee and chat!" Li Xuan smiled and said to Zeng Zhiwei, then turned to look at his girlfriend, "The director You may not necessarily like you as the heroine, don't rush to refuse, just talk about it!"

"It's better to hit the sun than the sun, what do you do next time, Lazy, you have Du Qifeng's number, hurry up and give him a call, saying that there is a big water pipe to invest in his new play, and bring the script immediately!" Zeng Zhiwei Shouted to Chen Boxiang.

"I said boss, we came out to play football today, and we didn't have the phone book with us at all!" Chen Boxiang shook his head with a wry smile.

"You can figure this out yourself!"

Chen Boxiang went out for more than ten minutes before coming back: "I called him several times before contacting him, and they rushed over immediately!"

"Miss, please inform the back kitchen for me to serve later. UU read www.uukanshu.com and bring the menu over. I'll add a few dishes!" Li Xuan called the waiter standing at the door and ordered. .

A group of people chatted while drinking tea. Zeng Zhiwei talked about a lot of gossip in the film industry. Tan Yonglin and Zhong Zhentao shared some interesting stories about filming in Taiwan. Time passed quickly in the gags. About half an hour later, the door of the box was pushed open again.

The first person who walked in was a round face, with a pair of smiling eyes hidden behind a pair of gold-rimmed glasses. Li Xuan recognized at a glance that this was the fat man Wang Jing. The one who followed Wang Jing had a square face and a bit of loyalty in his smile. Li Xuan guessed that this should be Du Qifeng.

As for Du Qifeng, Li Xuan in his previous life really only knew his name and didn't know him. Whoever has nothing to do would remember what the director looked like! Of course, Fatty Wang is an exception. In fact, it is not exactly called Fatty Wang, because Wang Jing, who is standing in front of Li Xuan, is not fat at all.

"Why are you with Ah Feng? It's no wonder you came so slowly. When we wait for you to come to the table, our stomachs are almost flat!" Zeng Zhiwei said with a smile when he saw Wang Jing coming in.

"Afeng was having dinner at my house. Halfway through the meal, he received that Ale said someone wanted to invest in his new movie. We both rushed over immediately! Where are the investors?" Wang Jing's small eyes swept around, his eyes finally Locked on Li Xuan.

Different from Wang Jing, Du Qifeng's eyes kept staring at Zhong Chuhong next to Li Xuan.

"Hello Director Du, I'm Li Xuan!" Li Xuan politely stood up and shook hands with Du Qifeng.

Only then did Du Qifeng react. He looked at Li Xuan embarrassedly and said sorry again and again.
