Food starts with Mapo Tofu

Chapter 297 No way, no way (seeking monthly ticket)
Chen Nianneng promised to lift everyone's spirits!
What Liu Qingsong thinks is that he can use this incident to carry out a series of marketing, but this requires the cooperation of the actors.

However, he felt that Chen Nian would not agree to accept this kind of exposure, but even so, there was no major problem at all.

And Zhang Fangyuan knows that he can shoot another classic work this time. Although this is not a pure traditional culture, it should be a combination of popular and Kunqu opera, but this innovation is worthy of recognition.

He also has great belief in his own abilities, and he has full confidence in making this film a model of a well-made commercial promotional film.

Chen Nian felt that he was working anyway, and Zhang Fangyuan had promised that he would not have more work content than the original contract, and Zhang Fangyuan also said that he could sign a new contract tonight.

The big deal is that if you dedicate yourself to art once, you can get an extra 5 yuan. Why not do it?

Not only does it cost nothing to come out, but you can also earn 10,000+ to go back. This was unthinkable before. No wonder everyone said that the entertainment industry makes money, and everyone wanted to squeeze their heads into it.

But An Hongdou thinks differently, she is not worried about work, because she completely believes in Chen Nian's professional ability, but she mainly wants to see Chen Nian pretending to be a female role, nothing else, just curious .

After the personnel changes, this afternoon's event was cancelled. Director Zhang took the creative staff back to the hotel and stayed in a room to start changing the script. Scripts are made.

Those costumes and props are all ready-made.

But Chen Nian and An Hongdou were not idle either. They had to familiarize themselves with the following moves in advance. Today, An Hongdou lost the chain in the dance moves, so he just took advantage of the afternoon to see if he could make up for it.

But this time, An Hongdou mainly pretends to be Xiaosheng. Xiaosheng's movements are relatively simple, and even if he makes an appearance, it is basically in the normal category.

So Chen Nian looked at the lyrics and designed some movements, and asked An Hongdou to practice along with him. After an afternoon of kung fu practice in the two-person room, his back was sore and his back hurt. Chen Nian felt that cooking lunch in the kitchen would not be as tiring as he is now.

In the evening, because the crew had to work overtime, they directly contacted the hotel and ordered some meals to be delivered to them.

Chen Nian and Chen Nian were also called over. Their script had almost been revised, and they needed to let the two of them see if there were any other areas that needed improvement.

After all, this song belongs to An Hongdou, and Chen Nian is a professional in this field for them, so they probably read it back and forth several times and put forward some constructive suggestions for revision.

And these screenwriters are not the kind of people who are lazy and fish for fish. They also put forward some opinions on the opinions of the two, but in the end they were persuaded by the two and revised the script on the spot.

At this point, they were just about to start having dinner. Since they had already ordered a meal, they happened to eat in this meeting room.

Liu Qingsong is rich and powerful, so he asked Zhang Fangyuan and the others to order whatever they wanted, as long as it wasn't that expensive.

But Chen Nian just took a rough look around, and the dishes Zhang Fangyuan ordered would cost about a thousand yuan in total, but since there are people treating guests, Chen Nian will not be polite.

Moreover, these dishes were all ordered from this hotel, and Chen Nian ate their breakfast with An Hongdou in the morning.

The dry noodles are really fresh in the old memory. If you judge it according to your own recipe, it will score at least 98 points.

And that's just the free breakfast that their hotel provides.

At this time, the table was full of dishes, and at a glance, most of them were Yangzhou's special dishes, and some were from other places in Jiangsu, such as Zhenjiang dishes like crystal meat.

But, I don't know why I thought of a very strange scene when I saw this crystal dish meat aged...

In the middle of a night, the surrounding area was bright red, but there was a group of beautifully dressed crystal meat with human bodies growing towards him continuously.

Such a weird scene made Chen Nian shiver.

"What's the matter? Is the air conditioner turned on too cold?" Director Zhang couldn't help asking after seeing Chen Nian's actions. Now Chen Nian is the treasure of the crew, so don't let anything happen. Even if you have a cold, it will affect your voice. Although post-dubbing can be done, the screen will definitely feel a certain amount of frustration. After all, Chen Nian is not that kind of professional dubbing actor.

It is better to carry out live radio, and then go through a certain post-processing, so that the effect is the best.

"No, no, maybe I'm too tired today, just go back and have a rest at night." Chen Nian said quickly, he didn't know why he suddenly thought of this.

But he soon blamed it on his own cranky thinking.

Chen Nian put away his thoughts and looked at the other dishes on the table, Wensi tofu, boiled dried shredded rice, lion head with crab powder, Yangzhou fried rice, pot stickers, fried dumplings, Xiaolongbao, etc. It can be said that it is a big gathering of Jiangsu cuisine.

But it is the lion head as big as a baby's head that attracts the attention of the old man the most.

This thing is really too big, Chen Nian felt that if he let himself eat it, he could barely finish it.

But even so he couldn't eat anything else.

Seeing that everyone started to eat, Chen Nian also took a spoonful from the lion's head.

The scoop dug by Chen Nian is actually not too small in terms of weight, about 1.5 times that of ordinary meatballs, but it is a drop in the ocean when placed on this big lion head.

Observe carefully, there is a layer of brown sauce on the outside of the lion's head, and it is also sprinkled with crispy seasonings that are fried with something and a little green green onion.

It also smells like a thick sauce and meat.

This dish is also on the recipe that I got from Jin Dachuan, but it is also a lion's head, but the one in my own recipe is not so big.

After observing, Chen Nian put this mouthful of lion's head into his mouth. The soft and tender taste and the satisfaction of being filled with meat made Chen Nian very addicted.

Although this lion's head is delicious, there are still some disadvantages, that is, this dish is relatively greasy as a whole. Although the shape of the lion's head is complete, the inside is a little too soft, and the sauce ratio on the outside The reason is that it may feel good when you first eat it, but you will start to feel a little greasy after a few more mouthfuls.

This dish is probably not made by a master chef. It is probably made by the apprentices below, so there are these obvious shortcomings.

At this time, Zhang Fangyuan also came over with his job bowl: "How is it? The food here is not bad. I used to live here every time I came here. Anyway, the boss pays for it, and generally speaking, those celebrities are very interested in staying here." Every place has requirements, and every time we start a script meeting and have no time to go out to eat, we will order dishes from this hotel.”

"It's really good, much better than the ones we ate out last night." Chen Nian nodded and said.

Zhang Fangyuan looked nervous at this moment: "That's for sure! Although there are many delicious fly restaurants in the streets and alleys, you have to find those places. The one you went to yesterday is considered a scenic spot, and many locals only go there when they are having fun. Take a look around, but there are not many really delicious places on that street.”

"That's true. We ate a lot yesterday, but there were only one or two that were really satisfied."

"Hahaha, this is probably the first time Mr. Chen has come to Yangzhou. You can come here more in the future. This place is still very livable. Although the status of this city in Jiangsu is a bit embarrassing, I personally like it very much. .”

"There will definitely be more, after all, I also like food."

Zhang Fangyuan saw that Chen Nian accepted his Amway, and the smile on his face became even wider for a while. Looking at the sauce on some lion heads left in Chen Nian's bowl, Zhang Fangyuan asked again: "This lion head recipe ,how do you feel?"

"The taste is very good, the taste is very soft, but it is a bit too soft, and it is okay if you eat less sauce outside, but it will definitely be salty if you eat too much. If you eat it with the meat inside, you will feel very salty if you eat too much. Oil, so it is more suitable for our current situation, each person only eats one or two bites, share it and finish the job." Chen Nian said seriously.

Although he is not the kind of person with low EQ, he still doesn't want to be vague when it comes to food. In addition, this is not going to eat at someone's house, but ordering food from a restaurant, so naturally he has to say something.

But Zhang Fangyuan felt that Chen Nian might not understand the dishes here, because he ate here every time he came to Yangzhou, and he was even used to it. Ordered dishes.

Therefore, he doesn’t quite agree with what Chen Nian said. In addition, Chen Nian also said that he came to Yangzhou for the first time. Obviously, Chen Nian has not eaten Yangzhou cuisine many times. After all, he wants to eat authentic food in other places. Yangzhou cuisine is still quite difficult.

But, right now, he doesn't want to argue with Chen Nian. After all, everyone has their own advantages. If you like what you like, it's normal for others to think it's a little bad.

But even so, he was still a little unwilling, so he asked Chen Nian to try another squirrel mandarin fish. Since they ordered the meal directly from the hotel, the hotel just packed the rice in a box, and the rest Dishes are served on plates and delivered with lids on top.

The integrity and presentation of this dish of squirrel mandarin fish are good. Looking at the cuts on the back of the fish, most of them are neat, but Chen Nian can see with the naked eye that there should still be a few knives when the chef cut it before. Accidentally cut through the skin of the fish.

This is a knife error.

Finally, I picked it up and tasted it together.

"How about this dish?" Zhang Fangyuan saw Chen Nian picked it up, and he picked it up, dipped it in the rice, and put it in his mouth.

After chewing, he was very satisfied with the taste of this dish, which was sweet and sour. Although it had a completely different taste from the previous lion head, he still felt that this dish was well prepared.

You must know that he has eaten this dish in other places, but apart from some well-known restaurants outside and some restaurants opened by the chef himself, this is considered a good place he has eaten.

"This dish is slightly better than the previous one, but the thickened gravy on the outside may be a little thicker, so when you fry it, you can clearly see that the outer layer of starch is very thick, but fortunately this The layer of sweet and sour sauce is poured more, and this feeling is not particularly obvious after mixing." Chen Nian said unhurriedly.

His two reviews quickly caught the attention of others who also ate here.

They looked over one after another. Although they didn't know whether what Chen Nian said was true or not, seeing what he said was so firm and confident, they couldn't help but feel that Chen Nian might really understand this.

Those crew members thought so, but Zhang Fangyuan didn't think so. He felt that Chen Nian might be showing off.

I have been a director for so many years, where have I not been?

Chen Nian now seems to be just at the age of just graduating from university, and he has been unknown before. Can he know more about food than himself?
Isn't that a joke?
Zhang Fangyuan is also a person who likes to eat. Although he is not very good at it, he feels that he is very good at reviewing food.

But in the end he still didn't say anything.

I just kept telling myself in my heart: "Forget it...it's not worth it, it's not worth it...it's not necessary!"

But Chen Nian's comment just now made the staff of other crews a little curious. The screenwriter of this crew saw that Chen Nian understood so well and the words he said seemed very accurate, so he curiously began to ask Chen Nian Years to review other dishes.

"Wensi tofu... tastes good, but it may be that you didn't cut it too carefully. You can see that the thickness of these filaments is not the same. Although they are relatively thin, such mistakes should not be made. of."

"The dish of crystal meat is very well done, it is obviously made by the master chef."

"The whole circle seems to be that the crystal meat and boiled dry shreds are not bad, and the rest have more or less shortcomings."

In the beginning, Zhang Fangyuan just pretended that he couldn’t hear, and only cared about eating, because it was useless to talk about these things with Chen Nian, and these things had nothing to do with work, but Chen Nian talked more and more later. Excited, the more the employees asked, the more curious they became.

In the end, he really couldn't eat any more. Enduring the boredom in his heart, he put the rice on the table: "Eat first, I feel a little uncomfortable, go back and go to the toilet first."

After all, he is a battle-tested person, and as a director, he often needs to have meals with investors or some bigwigs from the government's propaganda department, so his excuses were not recognized by others.

An Hongdou, on the other hand, looked at the corners of the man's lips slightly raised, as if everyone was praising herself.
