Chapter 117: Please Eat
Zheng Xudong's performance made the show exciting and warm, and captured the hearts of Andrea on stage and the audience.
Seeing that time was running out, Andrea asked, "Do you plan to develop in the magic world in the future?"
Zheng Xudong shook his hand and said, "No, my ambition is the sea of stars!" Seeing that everyone smiled, he continued: "Actually, I am still a student, magic is just a small interest in my life, I will think about what I should do after my studies are completed." ”
"Is there anything you would like to say to the audience at the end of the show and in front of the TV?" Andrea began to wrap up the show.
Zheng Xudong thought for a while and said: "I want to thank the American audience for their love of my show, but I want to say that magic is just a trick, and there is nothing unusual, as long as the trick is actually very simple." Everyone is welcome to crack the magic trick I performed as soon as possible. Thank you!" he stood up and bowed deeply to the audience.
Andrea also stood up and said to the audience: "I just received a message from the director, and the ratings of our show have just risen to the first place. Let us once again thank Zheng Xudong, the amazing Oriental boy, for his wonderful performance!"
Zheng Xudong came backstage to meet with Sean, "I finally finished all the shows, I can finally take a break, I now realize how hard those big stars work every day." ”
Sean took out three checks from his pocket, one for CBS in the morning, one for FOX in the afternoon, and the other for NBC performances in the evening, for a total of six million dollars, plus a million dollars from ABC TV, and another seven million dollars.
Sean said to him after he took the check: "In the past two days, the ratings of your performances on TV have reached new highs, and tonight it has set the first rating, do you know how many phone calls I received just now? There are six TV stations, more than a dozen magazines and websites that want to ask you to do an exclusive interview, and they said that the price is whatever you want, as long as you want to go." ”
Zheng Xudong waved his hand at him, "Sean, my friend, money is endless, what's the use of more money for me, I can say unceremoniously, my current money is enough for me to spend the rest of my life even if I go to play and have fun every day, I want to do something I want to do now, I don't want to become a slave to money!"
Sean rolled his eyes when he heard his words, "FUCK! You just pretended to be a big force with me! To put it bluntly, the money is enough to spend, if you don't want to run around for money, why don't you just get it, what are you doing so high-minded!"
Zheng Xudong could only look at him speechlessly, thinking that there was nothing wrong with what people said. "You've got time to come with me to Colorado these two days. ”
"DID YOU BUY THE HALA RANCH? OH MY GOD! I SAID THAT IVANKA'S NEGOTIATING TEAM HAS BEEN IN FREQUENT CONTACT WITH THE SAUDIS OVER THERE FOR THE PAST TWO DAYS, AND IT TURNS OUT THAT THEY ARE BUSY WORKING FOR YOU. You're still really rich, and as far as I know, that ranch seems to be asking for $60 million now, and even if you bargain, it won't be less than $50 million. I've been to that ranch before, it's beautiful! ”
Zheng Xudong saw the light in his eyes when he talked about this ranch, "If you want, I can give it to you!"
Sean couldn't believe his ears, he stared at Zheng Xudong's eyes motionless, and what he saw was sincere and not hypocritical, and said very movingly: "I didn't expect that I have been a lawyer for so many years and there are still people who can move me, I once swore that I would never be moved by other people's words again, everything is an illusion in the eyes of our lawyers." I thank you, I won't ask for it, if I could, as long as you could give me time to go on a free vacation to your ranch. ”
Zheng Xudong looked at his moist eyes, put his arm around his shoulders and said, "I won't treat my own people badly, my ranch will always be open to you for free at any time, and my words will always be valid!"
Sean was thinking about what Zheng Xudong told him that day to let him go over to help him in the past few days, and he was hesitating for a while and couldn't make up his mind, but today Zheng Xudong's sincere performance towards him made him make up his mind, and decided to take a gamble and take a look at this young man for a few years.
Zheng Xudong didn't expect his sincerity to move Sean and receive his sincerity, and Sean has been by his side and worked silently for a lifetime, which has brought great help to Zheng Xudong's career.
Sean asked him if he would have a meal together in the evening, Zheng Xudong said that he had already made an appointment with Andrea, Sean glanced at him and said: "It's still young and good, the peach blossoms are really prosperous, but I want to remind you that the strength of Andrea's family is not worse than the strength of Ivanka's family, don't play with fire, be careful to burn until you can't return to China!"
"Who are you talking about who can burn him so that he can't return to the country!" I don't know when Andrea was already standing behind Sean, Sean glared at Zheng Xudong, and said in his heart that you kid is not authentic, you don't tell me even if you know that she is coming, you are really a "scum!" with a "I saw you wrong" look at Zheng Xudong and then turned to Andrea and said: "Miss Andrea, I am telling him to eat less hair supplements when he is young, be careful to get on fire, and burn himself." Okay, let's talk, I'll leave first, so I won't bother you!"
At this time, he was dressed in a long red dress, with a pair of red sandals on his feet, and the heels were ten centimeters high, standing beside him almost the same height as him, with a white gold necklace hanging from his white neck, and a swan cushion made of crystal flying vividly among her two towering peaks.
"Andrea, you are so beautiful tonight, especially this crystal swan is so beautiful, flying freely between your peaks, I believe that many men dream of becoming this swan!" Zheng Xudong sighed from the bottom of his heart after seeing Andrea.
Andrea laughed happily when she heard his compliment, then walked up to him and took his arm and walked towards the elevator.
Coming to the special parking lot of the TV station on the second floor of the basement, the garage was full of all kinds of luxury cars, Andrea came to the front of a red Porsche 911TURBO, came directly to the co-pilot's door, took out the car key from the bag and handed it to Zheng Xudong, and stood by his side when he saw this goods, "What are you doing standing next to me, don't you go over to drive, do you still plan to ask my beautiful woman to drive!"
Zheng Xudong smiled bitterly and said, "Didn't I tell you that I don't have a driver's license?"
"WHAT THE FUCK!, WHEN DID YOU TELL ME YOU DON'T HAVE A DRIVER'S LICENSE!" Andrea was stunned when she heard his words, she didn't even realize that the man next to her didn't have a driver's license. "Then what do you say? I can't drive with this dress and such high heels!"
Zheng Xudong thought to himself that it was not for me to let you wear it when you were dressed like this, and it was not my fault that I didn't have a driver's license, it was because I was not old enough. "Why don't we take the car?"
Andrea stood next to the car and thought for a while and suddenly said, "You said you don't have a driver's license, right?"
"That's right. I just said that. Zheng Xudong said suspiciously.
"And do you know how to drive?" she asked, staring at her big blue eyes.
"I can drive. Zheng Xudong looked at her, "You don't want me to drive without a license, do you? ”
"It'll be opened, the car keys will be given to you to get into the car, didn't Ivanka tell you what my family does?" Andrea shoved the remote control car key into his hand.
Zheng Xudong didn't hear Ivanka say what this girl did at home, but seeing that she was so determined, she still took the key and opened the car door, in fact, he knew that as long as you obeyed the rules, the police would usually not care about you. Sitting in the car and seeing the red leather seats, the dashboard with blue light, is still a little excited, although the car is decorated in the color that girls like, but the moment the ignition is lit, you can feel this 3.8L displacement machine monster let out a roar, as if breaking free from the cage.
Andrea also sat in and told him a location in New York for him to drive, and Zheng Xudong slowly drove the car out of the underground parking lot and slowly drove down the road towards its destination.
The place she said was really not far away, just near Fifth Avenue, and when she arrived at the place, Zheng Xudong knew that it was a restaurant, and there were already a few people waiting at the door, they stopped the car, and a car boy came to park the car, Andrea asked Zheng Xudong to take out the bottle of Romani Conti that was not finished when he was on the show. The two of them did not line up at the door, but were taken directly by the usher to a position slightly inside the restaurant, in fact, there are only fifteen tables in the main dining area of the huge restaurant, and each table is not separated from each other, but the distance is more than three meters.
"I KNOW THE OWNER OF THIS THREE-STAR MICHELIN RESTAURANT, SO I WAS ABLE TO BOOK A PLACE AT PER SE (ESSENCE), OTHERWISE I WOULD HAVE TO MAKE A RESERVATION A MONTH IN ADVANCE TO EAT AT HIS HOUSE. Andrea said.
The waiter in a black suit handed the menu to the two of them, and the menu on the black leather surface was sprinkled with some fine gold dust, which looked solemn, elegant, and dignified.
PER SE offers two menus, one is called the chef's recommended menu, which Zheng Xudong can only understand as the chef of their restaurant, and the other is the ordinary menu, but although the name is ordinary price, it is really not affordable for ordinary people, and the cheapest one's set meal is about 300 US dollars, which is still the price without alcohol. As for the chef's recommended menu, each dish is individually priced, plus a 20% service charge.
Zheng Xudong ordered the grilled lamb chops, clams and caviar with sago dew, oysters, and the famous foie gras recommended by their chef. SRF kobe steak, a lobster, ordered a steamed seafood dish at the end, and then handed the menu to the waiter, when he saw Andrea also handing the menu to the waiter, "Don't you order?"
She looked at him suspiciously, "Didn't you finish ordering? We may not be able to finish all of this." ”
He looked at Andrea embarrassedly and said, "That's me eating alone, if it's not enough for a while, I'll have to add more!"
She looked at him in disbelief, "You're not kidding!" and shook her head at him, "OH MY GOD!" and quickly ordered a few more of her favorite dishes on the menu and handed the menu back to the waiter. After the waiter left, she looked at him with alien eyes, staring at Zheng Xudong a little embarrassed.
"I'm still young, and I'm in the stage of growing my body, so I'm more able to eat, and I still have some money if I lose, otherwise I will be poor just by eating this one. He explained to Andrea the same rhetoric he had used to explain to other women.
Andrea automatically ignored the topic of being able to eat, and suddenly whispered to him, "Can I ask you for something later?"
