22. Food anchor
Chen Chen fell asleep immediately, but Lu Chen on the other side was still swimming in the vast sea of official business.
Looking at the time, it was already close to eleven o'clock, Lu Chen rubbed his eyebrows and temples, cleared his mind a little, and continued to review the text.
"Marshal!"
A virtual picture automatically appeared in the air around Lu Chen, and it was the Capusno star who had the same pointed ears as him who spoke.
"Say." Without raising his head, Lu Chen asked directly.
"Someone found the trace of the little prince on the C89 Voyage Star, he pretended to be a woman all the way, and maliciously attacked the identification system of the relevant departments encountered, so he was fooled and got on the Voyage Star."
Only then did Lu Chen stop what he was doing, looked up at the people on the screen, and asked: "The Yuanhang Star has now entered the second phase of orbit, and only at this time has someone discovered the traces of the little prince, will the recognition system be too low, and ask people to update it immediately, I want to know the latest actions of the little prince." Prepare another voyage, and we'll fetch the little prince. β
"Yes, Marshal, one more thing...... I don't know ......" The man was a little hesitant and seemed to hesitate.
"Say." In terms of business, Lu Chen doesn't like to procrastinate, staying up late and working overtime makes people feel bad, and when he meets someone who doesn't say the theme for a long time, he is also speechless.
The man lowered his head and immediately continued, "Director Han has been on strike for three days, do you want to ask him back?" β
Han Ling's kid has always been casual, Lu Chen has passed with one eye open and one eye closed most of the time, and today is no exception.
"Don't worry about him, it's useless for him to come anyway, he's probably still awkward about Han Feng naming the machine. By the way, has the king given any instructions lately? β
"Back to Marshal, the king trusts you in every way, and there is no instruction for the time being. However, Princess Alec from the galaxy next door wants to meet you, as if she wants to marry. β
Lu Chen had a headache again, the fact that he already had a fiancΓ©e had already caused a stir on the planet Capusno, and there were still people who pounced, especially the princesses on other planets.
"Reject her, I say it one last time, spread the word that I already have a lover and will never abandon him and betray him, I don't want to hear anyone who still wants to marry me."
"Yes, Marshal!"
After the man received the order, the picture in the air was automatically turned off, but Lu Chen was in no mood to continue working. I don't know if it's because Chen Chen always fries up and jumps at him, Lu Chen likes to tease him very much, but after teasing, he misses him more.
So Lu Chen also resigned himself to returning to the bedroom to rest, thinking that it was unwise for Chen Chen to deal with government affairs at the same time, it was easy to make mistakes, so it was better not to do it now.
Two people on different planets, with an incomparably deep bond, both fall asleep quietly, missing each other.
A new day is coming soon, Chen Chen woke up very early, and after getting himself some light food, he suddenly had a flash of inspiration.
Anyway, now that he has a lot of free time at his disposal, he plans to do something he wanted to do but never did.
Digging out the salary card from the work bag, there was half of Yan Shu's salary in advance, Chen Chen went out with a smile, bought a simple video camera with the prepaid salary, and decided to record a little video by himself.
After setting up the camera, he went to the vegetable market to select some fresh seafood and vegetables, and prepared to go back to fulfill his wish, that is, to record a food show for himself.
Although it was a whim, Chen Chen was not flustered at all, carefully selected the ingredients and tools, and said hello to the person who sent the camera, telling him to go back with him immediately. It's not that he doesn't want to move the camera back by himself, but he is carrying vegetables in his hands, which is not easy to take, and if he accidentally falls to the ground, it will be too late to regret it, so he asked the shopkeeper to call someone to help deliver it.
Soon, Chen Chen returned to his nest, and the delivery person was still a little surprised, a person with a very high salary card to buy a high-end video camera actually lived in an old hut of forty square meters. But he didn't ask too much, put down the camera and left.
Unpacking the camera, Chen Chen was still a little excited, and with this excitement, Chen Chen quickly studied the basic use of the camera. But when he set up the camera, he felt that such a dry video was too boring, and he sat on the ground alone and hesitated.
"Why don't you find someone to voice you?" He thought of the magnetic dubbing in the show "A Bite of China", and felt that this effect was particularly good, and he wanted to learn to do it.
But he doesn't have any friends around, who can dub him and still have a good voice?
A person was selected to enter Chen Chen's consideration, well, he had to admit that Lu Chen was the best choice, so he cheekily contacted Lu Chen, hoping that he could help.
"Madam, did you miss me by calling me so early?" Lu Chen continued to tease Chen Chen as usual.
Originally, Chen Chen wanted to correct his title again, but when he thought that he was the character who asked for help, he instantly wilted and obediently agreed: "Well, that...... I want to record a video, can you give me a voiceover? It makes the audience more aware of what I'm doing. β
"I thought Madame had contacted me because she wanted me to come, but it turned out that she was asking me for help. However, it's good to think of me in the first place, I promise you. How are you going to record it, tell me about it. β
didn't expect Lu Chen to agree so quickly, Chen Chen happily explained to Lu Chen what kind of effect he wanted to shoot.
After Lu Chen said that he understood, Chen Chen turned on the video and played it outside, put it outside the camera, and also pointed it at himself like a camera, so that Lu Chen could see what he was doing, and what he said could also be recorded by the camera.
"Wait, we've got to give our videos a name, you decide."
Lu Chen's words reminded Chen Chen, and he temporarily thought of a name for "Mr. Xiao Chen's back kitchen", and both of them thought it was good, so they began to turn on the camera and prepare to record.
In this way, Chen Chen began his first hosting tour.
At the beginning, it was a narration of Lu Chen, I don't know what high technology Lu Chen used, he spoke standard fluent Mandarin, Chen Chen found that his voice was very good when he spoke Earth Language, and the standard magnetic male god voice.
"This is Mr. Xiao Chen's back kitchen, and it is Mr. Xiao Chen who will show you the cooking process, so let's say hello to everyone."
With Lu Chen's introduction, Chen Chen showed a bright smile towards the camera, and then introduced loudly: "Hello everyone, I am your Mr. Chen, and what I want to show you today is the method of abalone soup." β
The abalone soup that failed slightly last time has always been something that he has been obsessed with, and since he met Lu Chen, his obsession with the perfect food has not stopped at all, so that he can't let go of the bowl of soup that was oversteamed by Li Huan for so long.
Taking out a fresh abalone from the food box, Chen Chen deliberately showed it in the direction of the camera, and then started to make it.
"Mr. Xiao Chen, have you already processed the abalone now?" Perhaps because he felt that there was too much blank space in this paragraph, Lu Chen began to turn on the dialogue mode with Chen Chen to make the video look less boring.
The patience of netizens is limited, and if you just bury your head in cooking, you will not be able to attract the audience's attention. And Chen Chen didn't do this video show to show his cooking skills, it was just a kind of yearning, of course, it was better to be the most comfortable.
Chen Chen responded to Lu Chen while processing the abalone: "I just cleaned it briefly, if you want to make a more delicious abalone soup, you still need more steps, I will show you one by one." β
"Oh, that's the case, then we audience friends have to watch carefully. Pre-processing ingredients is the key to keeping the whole dish delicious, so don't miss a single step to keep up with Mr. Chen's pace. β
Lu Chen's voiceover is also very good, the relaxed and humorous tone, coupled with his male god voice, even Chen Chen, who is cooking, is a little distracted when he listens to it, and he almost can't control his hand.
Soon, Chen Chen finished processing an abalone, and Lu Chen didn't leave too much blank space for the video, and immediately spoke again: "Is this handled?" β
Chen Chen raised his head, nodded and smiled at the camera, and said, "Yes, you can see that the abalone after I have dealt with it may be a little different from what you usually see in terms of shape, which is not the most important place." It doesn't matter how much meat is left over after processing and what shape it is, just follow the method I just said and don't hurt its muscles. β
Chen Chen then opened the fire and explained: "In order to save time, we can choose to boil water while reprocessing the abalone meat." Of course, if you are a novice who is not fast to deal with, you don't need to rush to boil water, and burning is also a waste of gas. β
The nature is difficult to change, as he spoke, Chen Chen added something similar to complaining, and Lu Chen quickly picked up: "Haha, Xiao Chen is really humorous, if the audience insists on learning from Xiao Chen to boil the water first, it won't make a big difference, it's up to you to decide." β
According to this model, Lu Chen asked and answered Chen Chen in the process of doing it, and the atmosphere of the video did not become embarrassing, but some of the dialogues made people feel particularly funny, and they couldn't help but continue watching. Chen Chen was a little nervous at first, but later, under the guidance of Lu Chen, he gradually let go, and he talked a lot, and often came up with a few cold jokes.
Of course, Chen Chen is the only actor in this process, and he talks a lot, Lu Chen only occasionally interjects a sentence or two, for example, when Chen Chen put the prepared raw meat soup into the steamer, Lu Chen asked: "What time and requirements do you need to put this into the pot?" β
Chen Chen nodded: "Of course, the speed of preparation must be fast, otherwise the meat will lose its umami taste when it comes into contact with the air for too long, and it will not achieve the expected effect." The requirement is probably not to open the lid at will after putting it in the pot, it is best to use a transparent steaming lid, so that you can see the changes inside without opening the lid. Also, the fire should not be too big, as we all know, whether it is making soup or making soup and porridge, avoid using high fire, this process is not urgent, everyone must be patient. β
"And how long will we have to wait?" Lu Chen continued to chat very casually.
Chen Chen glanced at the steamer and replied: "The old and tender Cheng dΓΉ of each abalone meat is different, and there is a difference in time, but it is not very big, and I can try to get out of the pot when it is just eight minutes cooked, if you are worried that it is not too cooked and tastes good, you can wait for two more minutes." In fact, as long as there is no mistake in the previous preparation, even if it is not cooked, there will be no peculiar smell, so the audience and friends do not have to worry, they should be more confident. β
Lu Chen talked about some of the more difficult points in the previous stage and communicated with Chen Chen, and thoughtfully took care of the netizens who had limited IQ and couldn't keep up with the rhythm, and asked Chen Chen to explain the steps carefully.
Chen Chen quickly turned around, pointed to the lid of the pot and said, "Okay, now the time for my bowl of soup to start is almost up, if you are not sure, you can also gently shake the steamer like inspecting the raw and cooked process of egg custard, and check the shaking amplitude inside." Okay, my time has come, I have to hurry up and get out of the pot, and I'll be old if it's too late. β
As he spoke, Chen Chen brought out the abalone soup that he was quite satisfied with heat-insulating gloves, and specially showed it in front of the camera.
And Lu Chen, who was on the other end of the communicator, naturally didn't miss the miserable soup in his hand, and couldn't help but add a sentence in the voiceover: "It seems that Mr. Xiao Chen's abalone soup is quite unique, I think the audience and netizens must have never seen such a chic dish." β
Chen Chen successfully made abalone soup and made the taste he wanted, but the camera couldn't shoot the fragrance, but he could smell it himself, and he was satisfied, but he was directly poured a scoop of cold water by Lu Chen.
Of course, he knew that the food he cooked still looked so ugly, but it was really delicious!
Although the explanation was a little pale, Chen Chen still struggled: "Hehe, although this soup looks a little unsatisfactory, believe me, if you follow my steps, the taste will definitely be great." Finally, I'd like to show you my original sauce to make it even more delicious. β
"I believe the audience is more curious about whether there is a special way to make zuΓ² for this exclusive sauce, and whether it can be bought on the market?" Lu Chen also picked up the topic and diverted Chen Chen's attention.
"Of course, since it's an exclusive sauce, it's not sold outside. However, if you're interested in the next episode, let's make this. Chen Chen sells cuteness to the camera.
"Okay, then our first issue of 'Mr. Xiao Chen's Back Kitchen' is almost coming to an end, and the rest will be more exciting."
As soon as Lu Chen's words fell, Chen Chen found a stool to sit down, according to the last part of the planned program, he enjoyed eating the dishes he made cleanly, Chen Chen inhaled the abalone soup with a big face.
Chen Chen finished eating slowly, wiped his mouth with a piece of paper, looked at Lu Chen on the other end of the phone provocatively, and said that the food is really delicious, but unfortunately you can't eat it.
Lu Chen disagreed, and said funny: "Your video doesn't seem to be turned off yet." β
A thunderbolt hit Chen Chen on the head, no off, no off, no off...... I forgot to turn it off!
Chen Chen hurriedly got up to turn off the video, and accidentally knocked on the corner of the table, and a bruise appeared on his arm, he didn't care about rubbing it, and he gasped with cold air in his mouth. Lu Chen's heart hurt a little when he saw it on the other end, and he regretted what he just said. Softly said, "Does your arm hurt?" β
Chen Chen turned off the video and was about to see how his arm was doing, when he heard Lu Chen's voice. I was obviously very happy in my heart, but I still had a look of arrogance on my face, "Hmph! He turned his back and pretended to ignore him, snickering there.
Lu Chen watched Chen Chen's shoulders tremble, knowing that he was fine, he breathed a sigh of relief, and looked at him affectionately with a doting smile.
I've been carrying it for so long, why don't you coax me? Hey! Why is there no sound? Chen Chen turned around suspiciously, and saw Lu Chen's affectionate eyes. When I made a move, my face turned red, and my ears felt so hot.
Chen Chen fanned his ears with his hand, hoping that the temperature would drop a little. Lu Chen knew that he was shy, and couldn't help but speak: "Madame's shy appearance is really boring. β
"Are you idle? Don't go to the errand, go quickly! Chen Chen turned off the call instantly.
Lu Chen looked at the shady mobile phone, today is a good day, I hope that Mrs. will have more viewers for his food show, so that he can record a few more episodes.
