Chapter 85: Meeting the Producer.
Remember [34 Chinese Network .] in one second, wonderful free reading without pop-ups!
Ash's eyes wandered, and she looked at Fang Jinchao for a while, and finally she restrained the impulse in her heart. Seeing the man's calm appearance, she already wanted to directly question him, why did he do those things, and why he set this series of traps for herself.
She even wondered if Fang Jinchao knew something, so she would do everything possible to circle herself by his side, and Ash almost wanted to have a showdown with him immediately.
But now it's early in the morning, and there are few people around, if he provokes Fang Jinchao, wouldn't it be worth the loss?
Therefore, she finally held back, like Fang Jinchao, pretending that nothing had happened.
"Yes, back to school, did you wait all night?" She asked.
Obviously, he and he are only in a cooperative relationship, and they don't have any feelings at all, but inexplicably, Ash feels a little weak.
Fang Jinchao didn't have any special reaction, but still gentlemanly opened the car door for her, and said, "I slept in the car, don't worry, get in the car, I'll send you." ”
……
Ash didn't care whether he slept or not, but questioned his behavior, but he couldn't say anything more when he answered like that.
She had no choice but to say again: "Okay, then I'm sorry for you, Brother Jinchao." ”
Afterwards, the man drove to C University, and even stopped to buy a breakfast for Ash when he passed by a breakfast shop.
If it weren't for Ash knowing what he did last night, I'm afraid he would really think that Fang Jinchao really likes him, so he is so considerate!
But, Ash knew, he wasn't. Otherwise, his snacks full of calculations don't make sense at all, and Ash is more and more convinced that Fang Jinchao's deformed feelings for him are actually controlled by the food system.
The two didn't say anything all the way, and the JK club was a little far away from C-University, and Ash was a little drowsy because he didn't have a good rest last night. But because of her extreme distrust of the people around her, she had to force herself to go to school.
It happened to be the rush hour for work, the car stopped and stopped, and when I arrived at the C gate, it was already past 9 o'clock in the morning.
Ash rejected Fang Jinchao's proposal to send him to the teaching building, not only because he knew his true face, but also because the car he drove today was too ostentatious, and if she was seen by someone with a heart, she would have trouble again.
Of course, Ash refused Fang Jinchao on the second reason, and the other party adhered to the gentlemanly style and did not refuse again.
In the end, Ash didn't go to class, she was too tired when she went back to the dormitory to wash, and after washing her face, she asked Ying Zheng to answer for herself, and then climbed into bed and went to bed.
Luckily, Ash had set the restaurant's opening hours for the evening today, otherwise her body might not be able to handle it.
When Ash woke up until noon, he felt that the whole world was a little unreal. The dormitory was empty, and they should all have gone to class, but there were instant meals, instant noodles, bread and other foods pressed on their desks, which must have been bought by Ying Zheng and Fan.
Gao Minzhen has moved out of the dormitory and rented a separate house in the teacher's apartment at the school, because she feels that it is convenient for her to live alone after grinding with the others for a semester.
Ash thought she would be in trouble with herself, but Gao Minzhen didn't do anything, and she thought it was a little strange. But after learning about Fang Jinchao's secret last night, Ash suspected that Fang Jinchao had said something to the Gao family in advance, otherwise the Gao family would not be as calm as it is now.
After Ash filled his stomach, there was still some time before the restaurant opened, so he directly met with the producer of "Cooking Competition".
After reporter Wang gave Ash the contact information before, she had already contacted the other party once, and at this time today, the other party was free.
In order to make things easier, Ash directly invited the other party to come to the restaurant as a guest, of course, if the other party was inconvenient, she said that she could also go to the place he agreed.
Fortunately, the producer is a cheerful person, saying that he ordered the dishes of Shiheng Restaurant, and it was scheduled for three months, and today happened to be a feast.
Ash naturally wouldn't refuse, but he had a matter on his own mind and readily agreed.
She reviewed her homework in the dormitory for a while, and then sent a message in the small group in the dormitory, first thanking them for their help in the roll call, and then saying that she had gone to the restaurant and would rush back to the dormitory tonight.
Ying Zheng and Fan Xiang didn't say anything other than lamenting that she was really busy this semester.
However, Ash still felt the joy of having friendship, and if it weren't for Ying Zheng and Fan Xiang, she would definitely not be able to juggle her studies and restaurant business now.
The restaurant has been gaining momentum recently, and after the closure of Wanfu Building, more and more people have come to book.
Ash plans to continue to develop new dishes after the completion of the mission of [Entertainment Supreme] to maintain this good momentum.
*
The producer of "Cooking Competition" arrived relatively early, and Ash had already made tea and was waiting for the other party, and he could start talking about the details as soon as he arrived.
The producer is a middle-aged man in his forties, perhaps because he does a food column and loves food, he is a little blessed, called Cheng Guoqing.
"Miss Ash, I have admired the name for a long time, you yourself are more beautiful than the photos circulating on the Internet, and it is estimated that your cooking skills are better than those on the Internet, I can't wait to cooperate with you!" Cheng Guoqing squinted and smiled.
This is a slippery guy who likes to say pretty things, and that's how Ash defines him.
Since Cheng Guoqing didn't prepare to greet him, Ash didn't want to waste time, so he said directly: "I also want your group to cooperate, but I hope to discuss the mode of variety shows again." Mr. Cheng, are you really not ready to spend money on celebrities? In fact, it is best to let popular stars bring around the reality show, and the effect will be better than you think! ”
"Miss Ash, of course I know!" Cheng Guoqing did not refute her, "However, my funds are limited, and it has taken a lot of effort to invite those Internet celebrities to come over and act as customers!" In fact, although the number of fans of Internet celebrities is not as good as that of celebrities, how many Internet celebrities can be used to invite a celebrity? These attention levels add up, although it is not as good as inviting a few more stars, but it is definitely not too bad, right? ”
Ash groaned, thinking about Cheng Guoqing's Internet celebrity business model, and after a few years, Internet celebrities were indeed industrialized. However, it is difficult to say how effective the "Cooking Competition" program team is the first person to eat cakes.
She thought for a while and said: "Mr. Cheng, in fact, I particularly admire the idea of inviting Internet celebrities, and I think it's very good." It's just that I think the cooking competition is still too old-fashioned, people may not want to see a chef who is not famous to compete in cooking, I have an idea for this, do you want to hear it? ”
Hearing that Ash had a new idea for the competition, Cheng Guoqing naturally wouldn't refuse, and nodded again and again, "Of course I want to hear it, otherwise I won't come over today, right?" ”
Ash didn't say it immediately, but took out a voice recorder and opened it, "Mr. Cheng, we don't have a contract yet, and we are ready to cooperate." And the competition mode of variety shows is the core, can I record when I discuss my ideas with you? ”
Tsk, Cheng Guoqing was speechless in his heart, this beautiful chef was really extraordinary. It is no wonder that the reform of Shiheng Restaurant can be done so smoothly, she is indeed very business-minded, and at the same time knows how to protect her own rights and interests.
Although Cheng Guoqing is a businessman, he likes to deal with smart people, and he did not refuse Ash's proposal, "Yes, you have no problem protecting your ideal at all." ”
Then Ash put forward his thoughts: "That's the case, since you have plans to invite Internet celebrities, why don't you invite a few more!" At this time this year, there are already the first batch of live broadcast Internet celebrities, including food, games, and beauty. So, Mr. Cheng, have you ever considered directly inviting these Internet celebrities to compete in cooking? Divide them into two groups, one male and one female, and the two teams compete, and one player is eliminated in each period. As for the judges, you can invite famous chefs in the industry, and of course I may be a bit of a gold on my face when I say that. As the head chef of Shiheng Restaurant, I also hope to appear as a judge, rather than a guest cooker. ”
She paused before revealing the truth: "After all, I don't have that much time. Mr. Cheng, I'm probably half an Internet celebrity now, but I don't often brush my face. If you think that this model needs to consume too much financial resources, I can also consider bringing capital into the group and becoming an investor, but you have to enjoy a certain share, what do you think of these proposals? ”
Cheng Guoqing didn't speak for a long time, in fact, he thought Ash's idea was better!
Although they are all invited to Internet celebrities, there is a big difference between watching Internet celebrities cook and watching Internet celebrities try dishes! This workload is huge, and the salary of Internet celebrities will naturally rise, so the girl immediately proposed the method of bringing money into the group.
Obviously, Ash came prepared, and she had already thought about the most critical issue for herself - money.
Who doesn't want to make the show's model more attractive, who doesn't want to invite big-name stars to help, but first you have to have connections and funds to invite them!
Ash saw that Cheng Guoqing didn't speak, but he didn't urge, because the expression on the other party's face had already said everything.
She knows that this model is not at all a grade compared with the "Cooking Competition" that reporter Wang told her.
Of course, Cheng Guoqing will not agree to her immediately, otherwise it will seem that his ideal is too boring.
He pretended to groan, and after a while, he finally spoke, "Your proposal is very interesting, but the corresponding risk has also increased, I need to go back and study it with other staff, and give you an answer tomorrow, okay?" ”
"Well, it's not in a hurry, it just so happens that I've been busy lately, so I can discuss it slowly." Ash replied with a smile.
Cheng Guoqing is really a fox, he may want to suppress his spirit, so that it is convenient for him to fool himself into injecting more capital and less dividends. Risk assessment has been taught in Fang Yizhou's class as early as last semester.
However, she also kept her own hands, and today she just mentioned the mode of Internet celebrity cooking. There is another point that she has not yet brought up, and she is going to save it for the next negotiation.
The communication with Cheng Guoqing ended happily, and Ash leisurely cooked a few dishes for him before opening for other guests.
And after Cheng Guoqing tasted Ash's craftsmanship, he had already made up his mind to invite Ash to participate in this variety show, no matter what role she played in it! The girl's craftsmanship is really good, she seems to be able to grasp all kinds of details such as heat and portion, which is not much different from the craftsmanship of the chef of the three-Michelin restaurant he tried abroad!
That night, Ash found that after discussing with Cheng Guoqing, the task of [Entertainment First] had been officially launched, and the progress had advanced a bit.
The corners of her lips curled slightly, knowing that Cheng Guoqing had decided to cooperate with her.
So, in the next few days, she didn't pay much attention to this food variety show, focusing on her studies and chef career.
During this period, Fang Jinchao did not contact her, and she did not take the initiative to contact the other party, Ash decided, I will not move if the enemy does not move. Before she figured out Fang Jinchao's true motives, she wasn't ready to find out those things.
It's Fang Yizhou, after the last time they met in the club, he always took time to video or voice chat with her every day. He is still flying all over the world, saying that he will not be idle until the second half of the year when the World Finals are over.
Ash breathed a sigh of relief, she thought that by that time, everything should be stable for herself. Soon she will have to take turns running in three places, and there is no time to catch her breath.
Originally, Ash thought that he just had to wait, and Cheng Guoqing directly agreed to his cooperation, but he didn't expect him to change his mind when he called.
