The first in the world to combine salted lemon and drinks together is Hong Kong people, because the climate of Hong Kong Island is humid and hot, Hong Kong people use a variety of spicy flavors to change the taste of some food, so as to increase appetite, such as the combination of salted lemon and cola is called "salty lemon", and then put a piece of fresh lemon in the "salty lemon", it is called "dragon and phoenix lemon", just like a martini is indispensable for lemon embellishment, no matter how the taste of the drink changes, salted lemon is always the protagonist.

The market share of 7-Up carbonated soda on Hong Kong Island is far less than that of Sprite, but fortunately, Pepsi-titled Leslie Cheung's concert has opened more than 20 Pepsi superstar tours, and 7-Up has barely been accepted by Hong Kong people.

So when Zhang Jin proposed the combination of salted lemon with chilled Qixi and a little salt - "salted lemon seven", many people, including Du Qifeng, felt very fresh.

"Can you drink this?"

Lao Du held the white large-mouthed glass, looked at the bubbles slowly floating on the salty lemon in the cup, frowned and hesitated.

Zhang Jin drank it in one gulp, feeling extremely cool and comfortable, and the taste was not bad, so he couldn't help but burp a soda.

"Drink it quickly, after a few minutes, the carbonic acid in it will run away, and it will lose its refreshing and sweet taste, and the taste will become salty and sour."

After Zhang Jin finished speaking, he took two glasses of salted lemon seven, and walked to Leslie Cheung and Zhang Xueyou, who were still reciting lines, "Come, taste the soda I just configured, it is a must-have drink for singers." ”

The two of them didn't hesitate, they took it and poured it down, Leslie Cheung didn't feel anything, Zhang Xueyou stuck out his tongue after drinking, and said with a bitter face: "Why is it so salty?" ”

Zhang Jin said with a smile: "Your cup is an added version, and the salted lemon seven that the onion head drank in the movie is heavily salted." Acclimatize a little bit in advance. ”

Zhang Xueyou smiled bitterly, "Brother Jin, can you change it to sugar then?" ”

"There's a lot of material over there, so you can adjust the ratio you like." Zhang Jin pointed to the counter of the "food stall".

Zhang Xueyou ran to mix the salted lemon seven.

Zhang Jin said to Leslie Cheung: "Rong Shao, you have a good relationship with Pepsi, can you help pull a sponsorship?" ”

Leslie Cheung hesitated slightly, and then realized. Pointing at Zhang Jin, he scolded with a smile: "Jinzai, don't you want to be so calculated, if I come forward, Pepsi will give at least 2 million sponsorship fees." ”

Zhang Jin smiled and said: "Pull in half of the sponsorship, I always feel that it is a bit of a loss to advertise Pepsi for free." ”

"Okay, half of one person, but maybe a little bit of advertising." Leslie Cheung said.

Zhang Jin said indifferently: "It's just a few stay pictures, as soon as the Pepsi money arrives, I immediately put a big freezer next to the counter, in which there is a water of Seven Joy and Pepsi Cola, not to mention the new things like Salted Lemon Seven." After the movie was released, the sales of 7-Up definitely increased significantly. ”

Leslie Cheung grinned when he heard this, okay, the feelings of this guy have already been calculated, and he asked the assistant to take the phone and call the general manager of Pepsi Xiangjiang region, and after a while, he hung up the phone and said: "Pepsi has agreed, come and sign the contract tomorrow at the latest." Arrive within a week. ”

"Rong Shao is really happy!" Zhang Jin sent the sycophants in time.

Leslie Cheung said with a smile: "Don't make sycophants, I plan to make a musical movie next year." Come over and help out with a cameo role. ”

"Sunset in Paris"?

The title flashed in Zhang Jin's mind instantly, and he vaguely remembered that in addition to Leslie Cheung, the other leading actors were Zhong Chuhong, Zhang Manyu and Wu Yusen.

This film doesn't seem to have a cameo role for itself, is it a passer-by A, B and C?

Although he was puzzled, Zhang Jin still agreed very happily, favors. There is borrowing and repaying, and it is not difficult to cooperate.

"No problem, as long as you don't think I'm acting scumbag."

――Dividing Line――

Zhang Jin gave everyone three days to prepare, as long as the actors who were free on the schedule were gathered in this temporarily rented villa group, everyone would either bury their heads in the script. Either chatting and fart, or playing cards and rubbing hemp, or busy building the set, in short, there is no sign of rushing the schedule, lazy and lazy, and the atmosphere is extraordinarily natural.

The reason why this is so is the result of the agreement between Du Qifeng and Zhang Jin, because literary films are not commercial films, and the leading actors must be given a few days to familiarize themselves with the script and the relationship between the characters.

During this period, Pepsi came over to sign a sponsorship contract and sent over all kinds of items needed by the crew, which were two truckloads of 7-Up and Pepsi, and everyone was enough to toss until the end of the day even if they drank one bottle and threw two bottles.

Three days later, Meng Tingwei and Liu Ruoying rushed to Hong Kong.

On January 4 of the new year, "Star Wish" was officially announced.

The opening ceremony was very low-key, just a symbolic walk-around process, and even the media was not invited, so except for a few people in Hong Kong, they didn't know that this movie was filming.

There is no media attention, which means that there is no media to harass, and the crew can shoot without interference.

The scenes filmed on the day of the start of filming were mainly concentrated in front of the hospital, that is, the open-air tea restaurant opened by Jewel Zhen played by Wu Mengda (the food stalls are a bit LOW, so correct it).

"Attention departments, check the various equipment again."

Behind the monitor, Du Qifeng shouted with the walkie-talkie, and soon, there was "OK" feedback from various departments.

Du Qifeng changed into a loudspeaker at this time, and said to Zhang Jin, who was directly in front of the camera: "Jinzai, prepare, Ayou, Ada, you are also ready!" ”

In the filming area, Zhang Jin stood behind the counter wearing a Pepsi hat, and next to him was a large freezer with Pepsi and 7-Up.

Two bird cages hung on Zhang Jin's left side, and Wu Mengda was holding bird food in his hand and preparing to feed the birds.

There were several tables, chairs and benches in front of the counter, and Meng Tingwei and Liu Ruoying, dressed in white nurses' clothes, were sitting there.

Outside the camera, Zhang Xueyou, who is "blind" and "dumb", is dressed as dirt and scum, ready to enter at any time.

With Du Qifeng's "action" order, the entire set began to be active.

First, Meng Tingwei and Liu Ruoying sat there and whispered and laughed, and then the camera panned over Zhang Jin, who was behind the counter, and fixed on Wu Mengda, who was chattering while feeding the birds.

After a while, Zhang Xueyou groped into the camera and patted Wu Mengda's shoulder along the counter.

Wu Mengda made a startled movement, turned around and complained: "You are a ghost, you have no sound when you walk." ”

Zhang Xueyou replied with an extremely silly smile, and Wu Mengda pointed to the counter and said, "This is your favorite salted lemon seven." ”

During the whole filming process, Zhang Jin didn't have a single line, just stuffy himself at the counter and tinkered with all kinds of tableware and ingredients.

When Wu Mengda complained that Zhang Xueyou put more salt, Zhang Jin picked up the prepared drinks and food and walked away quickly, and ran towards Meng Tingwei and Liu Ruoying, who were in the distance from the camera. (To be continued......)
