Text: Chapter 872
Spring Festival Gala, although this New Year's meal sent by CCTV to the people of the whole country every year is more and more like chicken ribs, but every year there are still countless viewers waiting in front of the TV and watching on time.
The reason why people are willing to be loyal viewers and watch such an increasingly disappointing Spring Festival Gala is because of feelings, or habits, and on the other hand, because this is a rare opportunity for the whole family to get together.
This feeling is not strong for children, but for adults, as work becomes more and more busy, family reunion has become a luxury.
In fact, as a super celebrity in the domestic entertainment industry, Song Zheng is naturally the object of invitation to the Spring Festival Gala of various local satellite TV stations, and CCTV has also been contacted early, but Song Zheng has all refused, and the reason is easy to find.
After a busy year, my brother is going to accompany his family!
On TV, three little girls from Treasure Island are jumping up and down saying tongue twisters, and Song Zheng just glances at them from time to time, to tell the truth, the current Spring Festival Gala is becoming less and less attractive to him, especially as a director, he really doesn't like this kind of large-scale literary and artistic performance-like Spring Festival Gala.
Chinese New Year's Eve was supposed to be a day of family gathering, and what people craved from the Spring Festival Gala was not how wonderful the program was, but to have the taste of the year, but now the Spring Festival Gala, the taste of the year is not felt at all.
At this time, Song Zheng's family is wrapping dumplings, he is responsible for rolling the skin, Lin Dad, Lin Ma is responsible for wrapping, as for Lin Xinru, it would be good if she didn't make trouble, only two were packed and Lin Ma was driven to play with the two children, and two brothers-in-law Lin Zhicong and Lin Zhiqiang were busy fiddling with the smartphones that Song Zheng just gave them.
"Ah Zheng, you call Mr. Guo and his mother-in-law, at this time, they should also arrive!"
Song Zheng got up when he heard this, rubbed the flour on his hands, and said, "It's still snowing outside, you must slow down, I'll call and ask!"
Like last year, this year's Chinese New Year, Song Zheng still invited Guo Baochang and his wife and Siqin Gaowa to his home, Siqin Gaowa's husband lives abroad all the year round, and Siqin Gaowa is impatient to take a plane, and has not been to Switzerland for two consecutive years to reunite.
After making a phone call, he learned that the three elders were almost in their community, and Song Zheng came back to continue rolling the skin.
"Xinru, it's almost time for you to clean up the dishes, Uncle Guo, aunt, and godmother should arrive later!"
Lin Xinru agreed over there, let Song Ning take care of his brother, got up and went into the kitchen, Song Zheng also followed, called Lin Zhicong to help roll the skin, and let Lin Xinru prepare the Chinese New Year's Eve dinner alone, he was still a little uneasy.
"Why are you here too!?" Lin Xinru was about to make the fish first, when she saw Song Zheng coming in, she asked curiously.
Song Zheng took the kitchen knife in Lin Xinru's hand: "I'll give you a hand, I'm afraid you won't be able to do it alone!"
Lin Xinru cut off and said, "What do you say to give me a hand, isn't it just that I don't feel at ease!?"
In fact, Lin Xinru's cooking skills are almost trained now, and some simple dishes are not difficult for her at all, but the dishes she makes are still far from Song Zheng in terms of taste.
"Okay! two of you together, you can hurry up, what are you preparing for today!?"
When Lin Xinru heard this, she took out a piece of paper from the small pocket of her apron, looked at it, and said, "There are twelve dishes in total, and I have washed all the dishes, look!"
Song Zheng couldn't help but smile when he saw Lin Xin's pretentious appearance: "I have been prepared!"
After reading it, I looked at the dishes prepared by Lin Xinru again, and suddenly knew in my heart: "Okay! You cut the cucumbers and carrots first!"
There were less than two hours left before the clock rang at twelve o'clock in the evening, and the time was enough, and the two of them were busy with their work.
"Husband!" Lin Xinru was cutting the vegetables, and suddenly said, "I'll discuss something with you!"
Song Zheng snorted and said, "Okay!
Lin Xinru hesitated for a moment and said, "I recently got a script, and it feels pretty good, I'm going to shoot it after the New Year!?"
Lin Xinru is about to film!?
Song Zheng was about to veto, but suddenly thought that in the past two years, Lin Xinru had to give up her acting career in order to take care of her family, and now she has nothing to do except shoot the variety show "The Birth of a Family", which is indeed quite aggrieved.
"Are you really thinking about it, ready to make a comeback?"
Lin Xinru hurriedly said: "No, I haven't planned to come out to film yet, at least before Qiuqiu went to kindergarten, I didn't have this idea, I was going to try to be a producer, I knew that I would definitely not be able to be a director, but if I was a producer, I should have no problem, besides, there is Sister Shang to help!"
Song Zheng was stunned for a moment, and said with a smile: "Why do you suddenly want to be a producer? Tell you, this is a chore, not something that can be done well with your mouth, the producer is responsible for the big and small affairs of a crew, do you think you can handle it?"
When Lin Xinru heard this, she was unconvinced: "I haven't tried it yet, how do you know that I can't cope with it?"
Song Zheng saw that Lin Xinru had misunderstood, and explained with a smile: "It's not that I don't have confidence in you, it's just that I ~~~~~~~~"
Before Song Zheng finished speaking, when he turned around and saw Lin Xinru staring at him with an unkind face, he quickly changed his words: "Actually, it's not bad to try it." ”
Lin Xinru got a satisfactory answer, shook her hair, turned around and went to chop vegetables again.
Song Zheng couldn't cry or laugh when he saw this, in fact, he really didn't have confidence in Lin Xinru, in his previous life, Lin Xinru was able to make the studio prosperous, and although the several TV series he participated in the investment and production were full of slots, the ratings were all good.
"You're really not going to act?"
Lin Xinru paused for a moment as she chopped vegetables, and thought for a while: "I haven't thought about it yet, but I may have a cameo role in it at that time!"
Song Zheng sighed in his heart, he knew that Lin Xinru was very eager to act, but because of his relationship, Lin Xinru could only give up the performance she loved and shift the focus of her life to her family.
"Daughter-in-law, I'm sorry!"
"What are you talking about, I don't feel wronged!"
Lin Xinru was talking, when she suddenly heard the sound of the door opening, and said, "Godmother, have they arrived!?"
As soon as Lin Xinru's words fell, she heard Siqin Gaowa's voice outside: "My baby granddaughter, eldest grandson, I miss my grandmother!"
Liu Gege said with a smile on the side: "What do you say about the New Year, I don't know if I want to be auspicious!"
After a while, Liu Gege arrived in the kitchen: "What are you doing? I'll come, I'll come!"
Song Zheng hurriedly said: "Auntie, you can watch TV, just the two of us here, you are a guest, how can there be a reason to keep you busy!"
Liu Gege couldn't help but say, and directly took over Song Zheng's position: "If you are a guest or not, I don't treat myself as a guest, okay, you go quickly, a big man, how can he go around the stove all day long!"
Song Zheng was helpless, but he couldn't rob Liu Gege, so he could only come out of the kitchen.
"Uncle, godmother!"
Guo Baochang saw Song Zheng and hurriedly beckoned: "Zhengzi! Come on, I got all the scripts today!"
Screenplay!?
Song Zheng didn't react for a while, and when he came back to his senses, he knew that Guo Baochang was talking about the script of the prequel to "The Gate of the Mansion", and yesterday at the old man's side, he said that he hadn't written it well, but he brought it today.
Song Zheng listened to it, and he was also itchy, reading some news reports in his previous life, Guo Baochang kept saying that the story of "Mansion Gate" was not finished, and he would continue to film, but he didn't see it until he was reborn.
I heard the old man say that he planned to write a prequel to "The Gate of the Mansion", and he was very much looking forward to it, but now that the old man is even ready for the script, he quickly took it, and only read a beginning, and was attracted by this story.
As the old man said before, this prequel is the story of Bai Jingqi's great-grandfather, and the beginning is the last years of Qianlong in the Qing Dynasty.
However, the old man's script has not been written, and it can be seen that most of the written part is only a rough framework.
"Uncle, if you shoot this script, those house fans will have to rebel!"
The story of "Mansion Gate" has long been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, the old man's previous biography "Mansion Gate 1912", the audience can't accept it, and now Guo Baochang is playing bigger, and directly moved the story to the end of the Qianlong Dynasty, which has nothing to do with Bai Jingqi at all, whether those house fans can accept it or not, this is a big problem in itself.
Song Zheng's meaning, Guo Baochang naturally understood, and he had already prepared for this: "You don't have to worry about these, if people throw bricks, I will block them in front, and you say, is this story good!?"
Song Zheng listened, what else could he say, this old man was born with a stubborn temper, and he couldn't listen to people's persuasion: "The story must be a good story!"
Although Song Zheng only read the beginning and the story was not finished, he could roughly guess the direction of the development of this story, in "The Gate of the Mansion", the rise and fall of the Bai family has been told, but it has not talked about the Bai family, the process of building a family in Baicao Hall, how did Baicao Hall come about?
In this regard, it was only mentioned in "Mansion Gate" that the ancestors of the Bai family made a living by walking the streets and alleys and ringing bells to see a doctor since the Ming Dynasty.
Looking at the old man's posture, it is definitely necessary to shoot, since the old man wants to shoot, Song Zheng can only accompany him to the end.
"Uncle, I will discuss something with you, your story, how about our company to invest?"
