Gourmet and actor

Since he didn't leave, the matter of changing rooms was put on the agenda again.When Han Xilin asked He Lun to do something, he remembered something and emphasized, "Don't take that pillow with you."

He Lun nodded in agreement, and then handed over another piece of information: "Mr. Han, this is Wen Siping that you asked me to check last night. I was in a hurry. I only collected his online information and screened out more credible ones. Specifically Whether there is any falsehood or not, we will have to wait two more days until the investigation results of the detective agency come out."

Han Xilin took it and started to look through it.

The information was filtered, and those that were fake at first glance, and those that sold hard work and suffering were all eliminated, leaving only simple and detailed experience explanations.Such as acting in a certain movie in a certain month in a certain year, getting acquainted with a certain celebrity, and so on.

But these are superficial things. To truly understand a person, one has to look at the other side that he doesn't want to show.Han Xilin was mainly waiting for the results of the investigation, but he wanted to use this information to find out how he and Xiao Ke knew each other.

After a quick scan, they couldn't find any clues about Xiao Ke. The two seemed to have no intersection. On the surface, they seemed to be strangers to each other. Han Xilin frowned unconsciously.

Last night the boss asked someone to investigate Zhao Jun's coming to the black background, and He Lun also knew about it.By the way, I read the news on the Internet and found that Xiao Ke was hacked.Now it is guessed that Wen Siping is not clean, and it has something to do with this matter.

After several similar incidents, now he has habitually regarded the boss and Xiao Ke as one.Knowing that the boss would never let this guy go, he took the initiative to suggest: "Some small activities may not be reported on the Internet. Why don't you ask Mr. Xiao how he came into contact with this person before."

It was almost a little late last night when we returned to the residence, and Xiao Ke had to get up early, so he went to bed directly, and the two of them didn't talk much.Han Xilin also planned to ask Xiao Ke again at dinner today, so he nodded.

In fact, Xiao Ke also wanted to know what grievances and grievances there were between him and Wen Siping, but he had no memory.

After searching the Internet, Wen Siping's information is overwhelming, but as for himself, there are only recent reports.This kind of situation happened probably because the Internet was not popular when I was a child star, and when the Internet became a daily routine, the name Xiao Ke had faded out of the public eye.Although he is still struggling in the entertainment industry, no one wants to know his movements as a child star who has passed away in the [-]th tier, and the reporters will naturally not report it.

Xiao Ke was very helpless about this, but he had no choice but to pin his hopes on the detective investigation that Han Xilin said.

While filming, he searched and looked up Wen Siping's materials while taking a break during the set change, and before he knew it, it was noon.He went to bed late yesterday, and went to the early game today, so he didn't cook.

The waiter at the same scene asked for a boxed lunch. He was just about to find a quiet place to eat, but saw the little girl who was doing odd jobs running over: "Mr. Xiao, someone who claims to be your friend is looking for you, and he is waiting outside now."

friend?Don't be Yu Xiaoyue.Knowing that spring started recently, he got up early to take care of the fruit trees, so Xiao Ke called him in a taxi this morning, saying that he was filming in the provincial capital and came to get together when he was free.Unexpectedly, he ran over at noon.

When I went to the side door guarded by security guards, it was really my old roommate.Xiao Ke was a bit depressed because of the lack of progress in the investigation, and immediately swept away, and strode towards his old friend: "Xiao Yue, you came so fast!"

"Xiao Ke!" Since Xiao Ke left the orchard, the two of them only contacted occasionally on WeChat.Yu Xiaoyue was still worried about the division of life between the two, and now seeing that his friend still treats him so close, he felt relieved.Just to put it bluntly, Xiao Ke is not the kind of guy who once gets rich and turns his face and doesn't recognize anyone.

Reunited after a long absence, the two hugged, Xiao Ke asked: "Have you eaten yet?"

"I ate it nearby when I got off the train." When it came to eating, Yu Xiaoyue immediately forgot to be polite, and stretched his neck to look at the lunch box in his hand: "It's been a while since I tasted your cooking. What did you bring today?" Delicious? Let me try some."

"The film crew's boxed lunch, I want to get it over there."

While talking, Yu Xiaoyue had already seen the dishes inside, and shook his head in disappointment: "You can eat this kind of food. You said you wanted to welcome me this morning, didn't you use this to entertain me? I I only want to see beauties when I come to the set, and I don’t want to eat pig food.”

Every acquaintance wants to mention eating when they see him. Even Xu Dao, who can usually serve three bowls of rice with pickled vegetables, after eating his supper last night, today consciously or unintentionally revealed that he wants to go to The meaning of his family's improvement of food.

Xiao Ke shrugged helplessly, and said, "Don't worry, you can't treat anyone badly. Today I finish work early, and I will make you a big table of delicious food when I go back."

Yu Xiaoyue immediately beamed with joy: "Hey, I'm looking forward to it. What a coincidence that you came. My dad and I just applied a round of fertilizer to the orchard, so we can have two days of leisure and come up to play when we have time. My mother originally wanted to come too. , but there is a square dance competition, she is a pillar and can't get away. She also asked me to find your heroine for autographs, my mother watched the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law plays she played in the past. "

"This is easier. Who else do you want to sign? I'll help you get it later."

"That's what you said." Yu Xiaoyue opened the zipper of his backpack with a swipe, and opened the overflowing souvenirs, revealing about twenty autographed books: "The last time we went back to the provincial capital for the New Year, we just caught up with you The movie was released, and my parents mobilized all relatives to watch it together. As a result, everyone in the family became your new fans. I heard that I was going to visit the set, so I asked you to ask for an autograph, and told me about my phone out of battery."

Writing is Xiao Xiaowang's strong point, let alone entrusted by a friend, he immediately accepted all the promises.

It was Yu Xiaoyue's first visit to the film crew, and everything he saw was fresh.Xiao Ke introduced him while eating his lunch box.

Seeing that he had almost eaten, Yu Xiaoyue suddenly remembered something, took out his mobile phone to fiddle with it for a while, and handed it to him: "Now you have a good career, much better than me, and I don't have any gifts to give you. This video is I found most of the films you have participated in, and transcribed and edited the VCDs into videos. It can be regarded as a commemoration of your struggle for so many years. However, the sources of the films are not complete, and I only found seventeen or eight. I really can’t find some arrive."

Since his debut, Xiao Ke has participated in less than [-] films, most of which have never been on TV, and basically have zero popularity. Most of them are directly produced and sold, and the resources cannot be found on the Internet, otherwise fans would not Mistakenly thought he was a newcomer.Yu Xiaoyue was able to find so many, I don't know how much effort he spent, which shows his intentions.

This is more precious than a gift bought with money, Xiao Ke was so moved that he couldn't speak for a moment.After a while, he said a seemingly plain but solemn sentence: "Thank you."

"Haha, you're welcome, every time I come to you, you just take care of the food." Yu Xiaoyue didn't mention that he went to every video store in the provincial capital and his hometown, and asked them to look for the old stock with a smile. Work hard, click play on your phone, "Come here, let's appreciate how you have grown and become more handsome since you were a child."

The clip begins with Xiao Ke's debut. In "The Dream of the Son of Heaven", the clever and precocious little prince who longs to be a painter who indulges in landscapes in the future, but was eventually implicated and killed because of his mother's ambition; the naughty and cute little junior in the martial arts drama; the life drama A stubborn child in the rebellious period...

Although the picture quality is not good due to the age, it can still be seen that these characters are vividly played.The cute face and talented aura make people unforgettable.And from the aspects of lines and scenery, I can also feel that the script is excellent, the director is attentive, and it is a good drama.

But after this period, Xiao Ke's acting skills have obviously declined.Even the costumes and other aspects of the crew involved are becoming more and more shoddy, and the lines are blunt and shameful, leaving only one face to see.Later on, his expression became more and more timid, although he still had a handsome face, but because of his poor temperament, he completely disappeared from everyone.

Before Xiao Ke was in a low period, Yu Xiaoyue was very careful when he spoke, for fear of stimulating his fragile and sensitive psychology.Now that his career has risen, his whole person has become clearer, and the low pressure and inexplicable inferiority complex before have completely disappeared.

Seeing this paragraph, Yu Xiaoyue bluntly said what had been in his heart for a long time, "Actually, you used to be very good at acting in private rehearsals, but inexplicably lacked confidence in front of the camera. Xiao Ke, you must keep In the current state, believe that you are the best, and don’t shrink back.”

When seeing the last set of shots of his teenage years, Xiao Ke kept thinking about it.Hearing Yu Xiaoyue's words, he suddenly realized that the decline of Xiao Ke's acting skills did not happen overnight, but there are traces to follow.In the two dramas where he regressed the most, he acted with the same boy.

Noticing this, Xiao Ke immediately pulled back the progress bar, found the close-up of the boy, zoomed in and zoomed in again.The rough picture quality made the boy's face unclear, but looking at the facial features, he could still tell that it was——

"Yo, isn't this Wen Siping?"

Director Xu, who came to chat with Xiao Ke, saw the portrait on the phone, and immediately recalled, "It is said that he stepped into the entertainment circle in his twenties, but in fact, he is the same as you, and his debut age is about the same. It's just that he was not famous before. , It’s only now that it’s gradually getting better. In the film you acted with him back then, you were the second male lead, and he was just a small supporting role that appeared two or three times. It’s hard for you to keep it. It seems that you have a good friendship, don’t you?”

Recalling this point, Director Xu slapped his head suddenly, "By the way, the Wanhua you asked me last time was related to Wen Siping. I also knew by chance that after he became famous, he sponsored a naval studio. Post your own draft to gain popularity. This Wanhua is the person in charge, and his pseudonyms on the Internet all start with the word Wan. The manuscript is well written. My friend asked him to write it before. No wonder I said the name is familiar and I often see the signature. Can you be unfamiliar?"

Wanhua, Wannianqing.Xiao Ke immediately remembered that this was the guy who chased and bit him like a mad dog yesterday.

Xiao Ke thought to himself, Wen Siping is a popular star now, so it is not good to question him directly, maybe he can open a gap from Wanhua.

He immediately sent a text message to Han Xilin before discussing the script with Director Xu.

After another three or four hours of busy work, Xiao Ke finished filming the scenes scheduled for today.After greeting the field manager, the two left the field and went home.Xiao Ke contacted Father Han again on the way, saying that he wanted to bring a friend back for dinner.

Father Han didn't care about these little details at first, and when he heard that he was going to treat guests tonight, he even said yes, saying that he would come back to help after finishing his work.

Arriving at the newly changed house, Yu Xiaoyue exclaimed as soon as he arrived at the gate of the community: "Xiao Ke, here are all townhouses, a set of several million, your crew is really generous."

"It was rented by my friend. Remember, I told you last time that Mr. Han's apartment in City B is rented by his company. I can live for nothing as long as I cook."

Yu Xiaoyue envied: "It seems that he must be very rich. It's a pity that he is a man. If it is a girl, you must hurry up, ask about his family background, and lock him up."

"Don't talk nonsense." Even though he answered like this, Xiao Ke decided that he must ask the Han family what kind of background they have when they have the opportunity.

It's okay to be rich, but even the Deng family, who Director Xu said has a certain influence in the film industry, is friendly with their father and son, so their family background should be unusual.Then why let yourself live in vain?If it's just for eating, there are many chefs outside, so there's no need to give yourself special treatment.

Before, Yu Xiaoyue clamored for a big meal, but after sitting in the crew all afternoon, he found that filming was not as easy as he imagined.Although Xiao Ke's acting skills were excellent, he couldn't stand the burden of other actors, and he took more than a dozen consecutive shots to pass one of them.The same lines and the same actions annoyed him, a bystander.As the actor Xiao Ke, although he didn't show any irritation, he must be tired too.

But it's rare to come here once, and he won't be reconciled if he doesn't try Xiao Ke's craftsmanship.After struggling for a while, he came up with a good idea: "Xiao Ke, take a rest first, just cook a few home-cooked dishes, it doesn't need to be too troublesome."

Xiao Ke was used to this kind of work intensity as early as when he was filming the film, and with his small success in swordsmanship practice, he has good energy.Knowing that the friend meant well, she smiled and said, "It's okay, the housekeeper has already cooked the soup and cut up the vegetables. I just need to prepare a few more things, and just fry them in the pot."

"Then let me help you. The fruit in the orchard is not yet ripe. This time I brought mountain and dry goods. You can see if you can use them."

After looking through the chicken mushrooms and bean curd sticks brought by Yu Xiaoyue, Xiao Ke finally picked out a box of preserved eggs, "This fried meat is not bad."

Can preserved eggs be fried with meat?Shouldn't they all be served cold?Yu Xiaoyue opened his mouth and closed it again.Previous experience has proved that listening to Xiao Ke during meals is absolutely correct.If you have any questions, hold back first, and wait until the dishes are on the table, and you will see for yourself.

After washing his hands and going into the kitchen, Xiao Ke first steamed the coir raincoat cakes that he had made in advance.I looked at the fragrant pressure cooker again, and it happened that it was almost time to go, so I opened the pot and scooped up the tip of the pig's trotter and the ham trotter into a large bowl, and put it aside to cool.He conveniently stuffed a handful of scallions and a few slices of ginger into Yu Xiaoyue's hands, and asked him to cut into pieces and shred.

Taking advantage of this time, he heated up the oil again, then opened the refrigerator, brought out the crucian carp soaked in seasonings such as rice wine and rice vinegar, and took out the crucian carp, which was soaked in seasonings such as rice wine and rice vinegar.

After this step, the oil was just about eight or nine times cooked. Xiao Ke took a pair of long chopsticks and fried the fish slowly.When both sides were browned and crispy, I took another pan, first spread a layer of shredded green onions that Yu Xiaoyue had cut, sprinkled a pinch of shredded ginger, and then put two fish.In this way, four layers are coded, and finally all the sauce that was soaked in the fish before is poured in.Seeing that the sauce was so thick that it just covered the top fish head, Xiao Ke covered the pot with satisfaction and turned on a low heat.

Yu Xiaoyue felt that the fragrance wafting from the pot was as thick as that thick sauce.He was reluctant to speak when he smelled it, until the scent dissipated, he asked, "Scrambled preserved eggs next?"

"First cook the pig's trotters." As he said, Xiao Ke changed a pair of chopsticks and poked at the crispy stewed pig's trotters.He didn't use any special technique, and he pulled out the bones inside with ease, without a single shred of meat on it.

After removing a bowl of hoof bones, Xiao Ke poured the clean meat back into the soup pot, scooped out a bowl of soup, and added another bowl of green vegetables to continue cooking.

At this time, there was a sound of opening the door, followed by Father Han's voice: "Xiao Ke, do we have guests today?"

On the way here, Xiao Ke had already introduced to Yu Xiaoyue the current resident population around him.He saw that the old man who was talking was dressed in a very fashionable way, and around his neck was wearing a so-called ancient ethnic scarf like that of the tourists who came here. Knowing that this must be Dong Han's father, he immediately said hello: "Hi Uncle Han, Uncle Wen, I'm Yu Xiaoyue."

"Haha, the young man looks very energetic. He is indeed Xiao Ke's friend. Xiao Yu, you can do whatever you want, don't be restrained."

Father Han just wanted to go into the kitchen to see what to eat tonight, but was stopped by Mr. Wen: "Old Han, you should talk about your employees, they are too inattentive. If I hadn't been quick-sighted, my brand-name cushions would have been stolen this morning." threw."

"What's your name? You picked up the full name."

"Then they can't throw it away." Elder Wen was slightly annoyed, "The cat litter was moved before it was ready. I'll see if there are any stray cats in this neighborhood tonight."

"Be careful and bring back a mosquito bag."

After exchanging a few words habitually, Father Han remembered that there was still business to be done: "Xiao Ke, you and my son—cough, the contract with Xiao Deng has been drawn up. Come and have a look, if there is no problem, just Sign it."

Xiao Ke wiped his hands and walked out of the kitchen, a little surprised: "So fast?"

"That is, I stared at him for another day today,"

In fact, the truth is that Father Han and Elder Wen went to Han's branch office after visiting the two scenic spots and snatched away the contract that He Lun had just drafted and had not had time to show Han Xilin. The booty returns in triumph.But Father Han, who took all the credit for himself, didn't blush at all.

Having signed several contracts, Xiao Ke is now familiar with the written language.After a quick look at it now, I immediately found that this contract was incredibly generous.

There are black and white letters on it, indicating rent, taxes, staff salaries, decoration budget and regular renovation, equipment costs and other necessary expenses for opening a store. Xiao Ke does not need to pay for any of them. As long as he invests in cooking skills, he can get 70% of the restaurant's ownership.Future profit distribution will also follow this ratio.

This is not a joint venture, it is clearly giving money to myself for nothing.

Deng Yibo is only in his early twenties this year, so he must be using his family's money.He made random conditions, and his family members might protest if they know about it in the future.Xiao Ke couldn't help asking: "Uncle Han, Mr. Deng offered me such a generous offer, does his family know?"

"Of course I know, they all agree, so you can sign with confidence."

Father Han said that his family members were sitting right in front of you, and they even participated in the modification of the details—He Lun guessed what the boss was thinking, and originally wanted to sign the ownership of the restaurant to Xiao Ke, and he cooperated in the name of management.But it was strictly forbidden by Han's father: the catering industry has been in a downturn for the past two years, what should I do if I lose money?Although the storefront is the property of their Han family and does not need to pay rent, but the wages, taxes and fees are free, so how can Xiaoke lose money in business.Still follow the method of investing in shares and hold the account set.If you lose money, you can fill it in with a sum of money, without anyone knowing it.

Seeing that Xiao Ke was still hesitating, Father Han said again: "Xiao Ke, has Uncle cheated on you? You can sign it boldly, the terms are clear, and you will never suffer. Don't think that you are taking advantage of it. The foundation of a restaurant, it is worth spending a little more money for this foundation."

This is indeed the case.So, under Han's father's flickering, Xiao Ke finally signed his name and pressed his fingerprints.

Withdrawing the agreement and looking at the red fingerprints on it, Father Han smiled brighter than the big red flowers on the ethnic scarf: This will help his son tie people down, hahaha!
