Chapter 95

"A food show with a historical twist?" Chen Mo put down the teacup and asked with a slight frown.

Mu Yu, who was sitting on the side, also showed a hint of curiosity about "listening to your ears".

"Not bad?" Shopkeeper Feng bowed his head and added: "The food program I want is not the same kind of rough propaganda on TV, or teaching people to cook, or simply advertising for businesses under the guise of making a show. Instead, I wanted to produce a new program that would show the food culture and heritage of our dynasty in detail. โ€

โ€œโ€ฆโ€ฆ Let's put it this way, my gluttonous building was built in the last years of Chongzhen in this dynasty, and it has a history of hundreds of years now. Hundreds of years of ups and downs, not to mention how many major events my gluttonous building has undergone in the imperial court reforms, it is the best dish of the chefs in my gluttonous building, each dish has its own history behind it, and there are celebrities and inkmen who have written poems for it. It makes food and culture and etiquette integrate with each other and inherit them for thousands of years. Unfortunately, today, there are fewer and fewer people who can master this way. More people are eating for the sake of eating. On the one hand, they abandon the thousand-year-old ritual culture of their ancestors, and on the other hand, they regard the barbaric behavior of foreigners, who have only been developed for hundreds of years, and who drink blood and hold knives and forks, as civilization. It really makes people in my way look sideways......"

Shopkeeper Feng complained to Chen Mo about the decline of folk Chinese culture, and then he got back to the point and said: "Don't hide it from classmate Chen, I have always wanted to do a food program to promote the food culture of my dynasty." In order to be able to do a good job in this program, I even spent a few years in the next few years, ordered people to go to various places to collect historical information, and asked Mr. Wang, a master of psychology, to make a biography for my Taotao Building, and invited many masters of Chinese culture who love appetite to help and write articles for each signature dish of Taotaolou. In order to do publicity, I spent a lot of money to open up a column in the most popular TV stations and magazines in China, just to promote my gluttonous building. It's a pity that the people in the circle are reluctant to do it after all, and the article planning is too sunny and snowy, and the song is high and low, not to mention letting those foreign barbarians who are not educated understand our country's culture, that is, many readers in China who do not understand the Four Books and Five Classics also feel that the meaning of the article is too difficult to understand. And so the plan came to an end......"

โ€œโ€ฆโ€ฆ Everyone sighed that this is the reason for the decline of national learning. I think it should be possible. It's just that we haven't found the right propaganda strategy yet. Until the past two years, Chen has become famous in the entertainment industry, and has been admitted to the Faculty of Arts with excellent results, and is quite familiar with poetry dictionaries. I also paid a lot of attention to Chen. My intuition told me that the key to whether I can do a good job in the program of Gluttony House must be on classmate Chen. โ€

Chen Mo listened to Shopkeeper Feng's words of praise, couldn't help but wave his hand, and said, "Shopkeeper Feng has a good reputation. โ€

Shopkeeper Feng smiled when he heard this, and said quite confidently: "I believe in my own vision. โ€

Immediately, the conversation changed, and he said to Chen Mo: "What I mean is that I want to ask Chen to help make a program planning case based on the information of Gluttony Building, and you are also responsible for the hosting and directing of the program." I wonder what Mr. Chen thinks? โ€

Chen Mo is worried about his slow-growing fan base these days. He knew it was because of his lack of exposure. It's just that I haven't thought of a way to solve it.

This time, I received an invitation from Shopkeeper Feng to do this food show, and to be honest, it did bring a hint of inspiration to Chen Mo - the school stipulates that students in the Faculty of Arts are not allowed to take leave without reason during the school year, and such rules and regulations also indirectly blocked Chen Mo's way of taking leave to film during the semester.

But just because you can't film doesn't mean you can't do anything else. Although the Faculty of Arts has a heavy workload and fierce competition, it still has free time after school and a day and a half off a week.

It's not enough to want to film in such free time, if you change to recording programs, it's more than enough.

But for Chen Mo, who is in the Faculty of Arts, his current student status does not allow him to participate in those variety shows with super high exposure and eye-catching.

Moreover, Chen Mo and his agent Yang Qindong don't want to frequently participate in variety shows in addition to promoting their works, and the two have the same opinion. I always feel that this practice of overexposing myself is consuming popularity. After all, everyone in the world has the psychology that scarcity is precious, and it is normal to look at the works and endorsements of idols when they miss it.

Instead of appearing on every channel of the TV set at every opportunity, once the audience gets bored with this familiar face, I am afraid it will affect Chen Mo's appeal. On the contrary, the gains outweigh the losses.

When he was struggling, Shopkeeper Feng threw an olive branch. not only asked Chen Mo to do the planning, but also invited Chen Mo to serve as the host and director, from the perspective of cultural propaganda, he can explain to the school, if the show is successful, he can also increase his fan value, which is simply killing two birds with one stone.

Chen Mo was pleased, and immediately smiled: "I am also a person who will say something straight to the point. To tell you the truth, I am very interested in this matter, but I am afraid that I am shallow in my own learning and will live up to the love of Shopkeeper Feng. โ€

"Hey, Chen is a top student in the Faculty of Arts, and he is also a popular little king in the entertainment industry. With your status, isn't it more than enough to do a food show planning? In this case, there is no need to say it. My old Feng still believes in you very much. โ€

After hearing Chen Mo's response, unconsciously, Shopkeeper Feng became closer to each other. He said with a smile: "I don't know what classmate Chen Taifu is called?" โ€

Chen Mo suddenly knew that Shopkeeper Feng was asking about his cousin, so he said with a smile: "There is no inscription, Shopkeeper Feng directly calls me Chen Mo." โ€

It is the old etiquette to meet each other and call each other, not to mention the families of ordinary people, even those nobles of the family - unless it is a Confucian master with strict etiquette such as Confucius and Mencius, or a person who is very particular about officialdom, other families have not used it for many years.

Shopkeeper Feng knew this very well, but he just asked politely, and when he heard Chen Mo's answer, he smiled slightly, responded naturally, and said: "How old am I stupid, Xiaomo, you can call me Fifth Brother Feng." โ€

Chen Mo smiled secretly in his heart, feeling that this shopkeeper Feng was worthy of being an official and businessman who did ancestral business. Every move really has a smell of the old days, and it is natural.

The two exchanged a few words, and Shopkeeper Feng smiled at Chen Mo and slapped his palms lightly.

After a while, I suddenly remembered a knock on the door that was not light, heavy, hurried, or unhurried, and the shopkeeper Feng shouted "enter" with a smile, and the door of the box was pushed open, and the waitress in a sleeved jacket rushed in with a stack of books.

The books in their arms were placed on the table in the private room one by one, and everyone came out. Shopkeeper Feng smiled and said: "This is the article about the gluttonous building written by someone in the next few years, as well as some of the plans we did in the past few years. It's all stuff piled up in a pile of old papers, and I don't know if I can help. โ€

Chen Mo looked at the thick stacks of materials that were about a foot high, and his heart was secretly speechless. It is worthy of being an old store with a history of hundreds of years, and there is really a lot of information in this article.

However, these materials are all good things, if Chen Mo really wants to do a good job in this plan, he can save a lot of things with these things.

Chen Mo smiled happily.

Only at this point did the serious business come to an end. The shopkeeper Feng also ordered someone to remove the residual tea and pastries and change the banquet.

This meal is naturally enjoyed by the guests and hosts. After the meal, Boss Feng personally sent Chen Mo and Mu Yu out of the gluttonous building, and at the same time gave away the special pastries and distiller's lees duck strips from the gluttonous building-specially brought to Mrs. Mu and Chen's father and Chen's mother, as well as a fluttering diamond silver, line, and card that counted Chen Mo's hard work in the early stage, and ordered someone to put a stack of articles and materials of the gluttonous building in the back seat and trunk of Mu Yu's car. watched Mu Yu's car leave before turning around.

Chen Mo sat in the car, playing with the silver, line, and card given by Shopkeeper Feng and joked with a smile: "It's very good, I can still take orders for business for nothing, it seems that I also have a talent for doing business." โ€

Mu Yu looked at Chen Mo holding โ–กโ–ก satisfied, and he didn't feel it, and said, "It's just a pen fee for you to do the planning." Feng Wu is an understanding person, if your show is really successful, the later division is indispensable. โ€

"There is also half of you on the military merit medal," Chen Mo's heart was like a mirror, he poked Mu Yu's cheek with his hand, and said: "If it weren't for the Mu family's great name, Fifth Brother Feng wouldn't be so understanding, and I specially asked you to support me in the past." โ€

Mu Yu chuckled and said casually: "We are a family. The Mu family should protect you. โ€

Chen Mo smiled and said very unobtrusively: "There is no way to repay such kindness, but fortunately, I have decided to make a promise." โ€

Mu Yu hooked the corners of his mouth, didn't say anything all the way, and went back to Chen's house first. Chen Mo wanted to give the refreshments and duck sticks from the gluttonous building to Chen's father and Chen's mother, and by the way, he also said that he was planning it.

As if he thought of something, Dad Chen's tone paused, and he said, "The idea is quite good." It's a pity that the current national situation is like this, and it is not easy to make a food program that can increase ratings while promoting Chinese culture. There were also many people who wanted to follow this path before. It's a pity that the planning is not good, either it is too difficult and boring, or it is too vulgar, and there are some things that are not in the West and nondecent, and the balance is not easy to grasp. โ€

After speaking, Chen's father said: "What's more, food is not something that can be understood by sitting at home." You'll have to go to the back kitchen to see it yourself. That's it, if you really want to do this show, I'll take you around Huajing City with me. If you want to promote the food culture of China, you can't just stare at the gluttonous building, you also have to try the craftsmanship of other restaurants and other masters. Even the eight major cuisines, you'd better go to the birthplace to try the authentic recipes there. โ€

"Only in this way can you win the strengths of all families and truly achieve what you say."

After a sentence, Dad Chen looked at Chen Mo, Mu Yu and Chen's mother with a look of surprise, and asked blankly, "Why are you looking at me like this?" โ€
