Chapter 107: The Story of Hanging Silk and Bai Fumei
Xiao Cheng's mood at the moment is like walking on a beautiful beach, looking at a group of hot beauties in three-point swimsuits drooling, and then suddenly his feet slipped, and when he looked down, he actually stepped on a pile of shit, that feeling, who stepped on it knows!
was ruined by Xu Feibai's mood, Xiao Cheng followed the signs in the exhibition area with a gloomy face and found the booth of Rainbow Film and Television Company. As soon as he walked into the platform, Xiao Cheng found that everyone was busy arranging the booth, but Bai Fan was sitting listlessly in the consultation area alone, looking like he didn't bother me.
Hey! This is a place to do business, who are you kid showing your face? Xiao Cheng walked to the consultation area without saying a word and stood in front of him.
Bai Fan raised his head and said unhappily: "Didn't you say it's okay, don't come and disturb." Before he finished speaking, he saw Xiao Cheng looking at him with a sneer, and the words that followed suddenly stopped abruptly, stood up and sneered: "Boss, you are here, I didn't say those words to you just now." β
Xiao Cheng glared at him angrily, sat down on the sofa next to him, and said with a sneer: "Director Bai, I haven't seen you for a while, but you have a temper, tell me, why are you in a bad mood?" β
Bai Fan leaned over and said with a flattering face: "Boss, I was wrong, don't bury me." β
Xiao Cheng gritted his teeth and said, "How dare I bury you, Director Bai?" I spent a lot of money to bring a large number of people here to do publicity, and I rented the presidential suite and rented the theater, you are good, it doesn't matter if you don't help, you are still sitting here and playing character, you are planning to dismantle my station, right? β
Bai Fan's face turned pale when Xiao Cheng said, and in his eagerness, he didn't know where his usual cleverness had flown to, and he defended palely: "Boss, I really didn't mean that, how dare I?" β
Lin Pingjiang on the side saw that Xiao Cheng was really angry, and hurriedly came over with a bottle of mineral water to relieve Bai Fan and said: "Boss, you drink saliva to dissipate your anger, don't be like him, Bai Fan was hit a little, it really didn't mean it." Just now, the organizing committee of the Cannes Film Festival sent an invitation letter, which said that "Spider-Man" won 6 nominations for the actor, actress, screenwriting award, best sound effect award, golden camera award, and special effects technology contribution award, but there was no nomination for best picture, so he was in a low mood, don't blame him. β
Xiao Cheng looked at Bai Fan's lost look, and he didn't have the heart to blame him, so he sighed and said, "If you're in a bad mood, go out for a walk, why stay at the booth?" This is a place to do business, you sit here like that, who still comes to talk to us about business? β
Bai Fan saw that Xiao Cheng's anger had subsided, so he regained a little spirit and said, "Boss, I'm sorry, I'll go out immediately, and I'm not in the way here." β
Bai Fan hurriedly fled Xiao Cheng's sight, and Xiao Cheng looked around.
Hua Ailin's work efficiency is still very high, and after a while, the TV and DVD player have been bought back and are being installed. She saw that Xiao Cheng drove Bai Fan away, so she came over to report: "Boss, I am asking someone to write the information on the leaflet, the presidential suite of the hotel has been booked, but the price is a bit expensive." β
Xiao Cheng said indifferently: "The price is not a problem, by the way, I also booked it anyway, don't waste it, ask someone to move my luggage over at night, and use it as an office space during the day." β
Hua Erin said: "Okay, if it's okay, I'll go and get busy first." β
Xiao Cheng nodded to indicate that it was okay, as soon as Hua Erin left, Liu Rumeng came over, she sat down and said, "Xiao Cheng, why do I feel like a transparent person, they don't ask me to do things?" β
The people of Rainbow Film and Television don't know what the relationship between Xiao Cheng and Liu Rumeng is, they only know that the relationship between the two is very close. Liu Rumeng is not from a professional class and has never acted, but he is a contracted actor of Rainbow Film and Television. As an insignificant trick in "Spider-Man", she followed her to Cannes in first class, and her treatment was better than most people, as long as she was not a fool, she could see that Xiao Cheng was different from her, who dared to ask her for help if she had nothing to do?
Xiao Cheng said as a matter of course: "These things are what they should do, and you are not familiar with them, so you should come over and have fun, feel the atmosphere of Cannes, so as not to be inexperienced when you come here to receive the award in the future." β
Liu Rumeng frowned and said: "Xiao Cheng, I'm not a fool, you signed me for so long and don't have any work arrangements, do you think I'm so incompetent that I need your charity to live?" β
Xiao Cheng said innocently: "Sister Meng, what are these words?" Do you think I'm going to open a good church, and it's okay for me to spend a lot of money to sign you for nothing? β
Liu Rumeng said stubbornly: "Then tell me, what are the arrangements for my work?" If I can't say a reason, I'll quit Rainbow Film and Television. β
Xiao Cheng said helplessly: "Auntie! I really don't know what to say about you, those are all trade secrets, can you just reveal them? β
Liu Rumeng ignored this stubble, still staring at Xiao Cheng, Xiao Cheng raised his hand and surrendered: "Okay! I'll tell you something, but don't say anything about it, otherwise the company will lose a lot. β
Liu Rumeng raised his hand and swore: "Don't worry, I, Liu Rumeng, will never reveal a word to the public." β
Xiao Cheng looked around and said, "Then let's find a place!" Anyway, it's almost lunch, so let's solve it together by the way. β
Liu Rumeng smiled at this time, got up and walked out of the movie palace with Xiao Cheng. The two of them found a restaurant outside that looked quite classy and had a quiet environment, went in and sat down, took the menu and began to order.
Because it was the time of the Cannes Film Festival, the French, who have always prided themselves on their native French, were no longer old-fashioned, and in order to cater to the needs of customers, they launched English menus, which saved the two of them a lot of trouble.
France is small in size, but it has a rich variety of cuisines, and the development of French cuisine has a history of more than 300 years since Louis XIV called French cuisine "French cuisine" in the 17th century.
The French have always been known for being good at eating and being good at eating, and French cuisine is still the best Western cuisine in the world.
A formal French meal is served in a very particular order, starting with an aperitif, usually sherry, cherry brandy, etc. This is followed by appetizers, which are generally based on caviar, raw oysters, etc.
Then there is the soup, and most people will choose clear soup. Fish dishes, fish, shrimp, shellfish, etc., are served on the back, and this dish is served with fine white wine. Next up is the main course, beef or lamb, which is served with a little vintage of red wine.
The main course is followed by sherbet ice cream, sherbet sorbet and other sherbet foods.
And that's not all, there are also meats such as barbecued meats and roasted fowl, vegetable salads, cheese sweets, cakes, ice cream, soufflΓ©s, and pancakes. Of course, there are also seasonal fruits, sometimes served with sweets, and finally an authentic French coffee.
After reading the menu, Xiao Cheng, who had never entered a high-end Western restaurant in his previous life, said that it was a little painful, but fortunately, Liu Rumeng was obviously not the first time to eat Western food, and after asking him about his taste, he ordered the dish for Xiao Cheng.
Before the dish was served, the two drank an aperitif, and Liu Rumeng held the wine glass and said, "Say it!" I'm listening. β
For the first time in his life, Xiao Cheng hated himself a little, feeling that he was really cheap, was he the boss? was actually forced to ask by Liu Rumeng like this, and he was still enjoying it, I really don't know what to say.
But after raising his eyes and glancing at Liu Rumeng, he had no choice but to admit it without discipline, cheap is cheap! I'm cheap, I'm happy.
Xiao Cheng pretended to take a sip of wine and said: "I signed you because you are the most suitable to play the heroine of a movie, but the investment in this movie will be very large, so I am waiting for the box office income of "Spider-Man", only the box office income of "Spider-Man" can support the filming of this movie." β
Liu Rumeng didn't speak, Xiao Cheng changed his expression to a stern expression and said: "This script is a movie script with the theme of love created by me, which tells the story of the beginning of the last century, the luxury passenger ship Titanic, known as the 'miracle in the world's industrial history', started its maiden voyage and sailed from Southampton, England to New York, United States. The heroine, the rich girl Roland, sits in first class with her mother and fiancΓ© An Guo, and the male protagonist's bohemian teenage painter Xiang Wen also wins a ticket to the lower class in a gamble on the dock.
Roland was tired of the hypocritical life of high society, was unwilling to marry An Guo, and planned to commit suicide by throwing himself into the sea, but was rescued by Xiang Wen. Soon, the beautiful and lively Roland and the handsome and cheerful Xiang Wen fell in love, and Xiang Wen took Roland to the ball in the lower class cabin and painted her portrait, and the relationship between the two gradually warmed up.
On a calm night, the Titanic hit an iceberg, the 'unsinkable' Titanic faced the fate of a shipwreck, and the budding love between Roland and Xiang Wengang will also experience the test of life and death.
At the last moment, Xiang Wen resolutely let go of the hand that grabbed the driftwood and sank to the bottom of the sea in order for Roland to get a chance to be rescued. β
As Xiao Cheng told the story of the Titanic in a colorful way, Liu Rumeng said with a choked throat after listening to it: "Why do you want Xiang Wen to die?" Wouldn't it be the best ending for both of them to be rescued and then live happily ever after? β
Xiao Cheng stared at Liu Rumeng meaningfully and said: "Because since ancient times, only sad love stories will remain in people's hearts forever. β
