Chapter 285: Taiqing
From West Kowloon to Ping Shan, the landscape transitions from towering skyscrapers to blackened ancestral towers, as if stepping into a time and space tunnel, from the bustling international city to the quaint Nanyue township.
Ping Shan, located in the northwest of the New Territories, one of the five major ethnic groups in the New Territories, settled in Ping Shan as early as the 12th century, and successively established six villages in Sanwei - Sheung Cheung Wai, Kiu Tau Wai, Ash Sha Wai, Hang Tau Village, Hang Mei Village, Tong Fong Village, San Tsuen, Hung Uk Village and Sun Ki Village.
This is one of the areas with the longest history in Xiangjiang, and there are still many ancient buildings, as well as the highest standard banquet in the hearts of Xiangjiang people.
"It's delicious, and I have acquaintances here." Oh, another game.
In the early years of Xiangjiang, being able to afford to invite people to eat Jiu Da Gui showed that the host's family was very wealthy, and being invited to eat Jiu Da Gui also showed that the guests themselves had their own identities, and the "Jiu Da Gui" was interpreted more and more mysteriously in the mutual praise between the host and guest of the village banquet.
"Mr. Shao, it's grand, I don't dare to take it," Tang Qin said modestly, "I remember that when the Queen of England visited Guangdong in 1986, the Guangdong Provincial Government held a banquet at the White Swan Hotel. ”
"Yes." Mr. Shao smiled happily, "Poon Choi is a specialty, you must eat more later." ”
"Okay." Tang Qin readily agreed.
After passing the antique Shaw Clan Ancestral Hall, I saw the pink Du Juan holding the street sign of "Pingshan Traditional Poon Choi" on the mosaic tiles, and the verdant green plants led people to a more hidden storefront, the edge of the signboard with red letters on a white background has been rusted, and the glass door was opened, but there was a hole inside.
On the small counter, there are statues of Guanyin and Fu Lu Shou, all kinds of cups, plates, dishes, ornaments and teapots, copper, wood, and ceramic, with the patterns of roosters, clear flowers, longevity, and dragons turning over the clouds, crushing the cabinets on the four walls.
"It looks like an antique shop." Tang Qin said.
"It's all history." Mr. Shao smiled, "Yongxing." He looked at the stove, Tang Qin also looked inside, at the end of the cramped storefront was a compact kitchen, a few giant woks carried the main production tasks, it was hard to imagine that a banquet of a few people, dozens of people, or even hundreds of people could be completed in a small space.
"Sixth Uncle." The old man in his sixties actually called Mr. Shao his uncle.
Mr. Shao agreed with a smile, and naturally, he introduced Tang Qin with a smile, "Tang Sheng is my friend." That's it.
"Tang Sheng." The old man in his sixties was also very respectful to Tang Qin.
"Yongxing is the head of our Poon Choi in Tangfang Village, and the 27th generation of the Zheng family in Pingshan, have all the guests I invited here?" Mr. Shao asked with a smile again.
"It's all here, I'm waiting for you."
Mr. Shao took Tang Qin and walked inside, "Poon Choi is a very luxurious banquet passed down by the people of Southern Guangdong, and the last dish of the "Nine Great Gui" ......"
He pushed open the door of a room, and several people inside stood up.
On the table, the dishes have been served, in addition to the nine big cooks, there are also tangerine peel duck soup, sour pork knuckle, rice wine chicken, southern duck, fried eel, chicken sauce stewed flower lonely, fish meatballs, pineapple purple ginger......
Tang Qin looked at Mr. Shao, who was integrated with this place, a rich kid from Shanghai, who could have done nothing, but in his life, he did things that no one else had tried in his life;
A film and television artist who mixes in the upper class, but under the lights, he can integrate the access of life into the countryside......
"Introduce a friend to you." Mr. Shao didn't make a big fuss, he just introduced Tang Qin in a very cordial tone, and it was really comfortable to be with such a person
"Mr. Kong Ming." Wu Siyuan stood up with a smile and stretched out his hand, "Zhuge Liang who likes you very much, I feel that you are not acting, you are Zhuge Liang......"
Tang Qin had heard this kind of praise many times, and he had already gained immunity.
However, Wu Siyuan has a relatively large background, and is known as the godfather of Xiangjiang films, and his status in the rivers and lakes is quite high. He has achieved very good results in all aspects, such as director, producer, producer, producer, etc., and has discovered and cultivated many film talents.
Tsui Hark's directorial debut "Butterfly Change" was supervised by him, and Jackie Chan's famous works "Serpentine Trickster" and "Drunken Fist" were also produced and supervised by his company, and he can be said to be the Bole of Tsui Hark and Jackie Chan.
In addition, he is the chairman of the Hong Kong Film Awards.
"I like it too," Mr. Shao said with a smile, "and no one can play better than Tang Sheng...... Mr. Cha didn't come? ”
"I'm coming." A soft Mandarin, but it was the world-famous Jin Daxia who came in, Tang Qin hurriedly stood up and said hello.
"Let Mr. Kong Ming get up to greet me and torment me." Mr. Jin Yong smiled and held Tang Qin's hand, constantly looking at him, "It's really Kong Ming himself, it's really a blessing in life to be able to drink with Mr. Kong Ming today." ”
……
A few people talked and laughed, taking advantage of the hot wine, Mr. Shao personally scooped a bowl of soup for Tang Qin, he looked at Tang Qin with a smile, and also looked at everyone, "Ah Qin went to Hong Kong this time, I heard that there was one thing that was not done." He was very affectionate to Tang Qin.
What's the matter?
At such a banquet, everyone suddenly talked about things, and everyone looked at Mr. Shao quietly.
"The mainland is preparing to shoot Water Margin, and I know that Ah Qin is also a martial arts master, but he wants to invite the martial artists of Xiangjiang to engage in action design, which is a grand event for the exchange of TV art between the mainland and Xiangjiang......"
"Then I may be able to help Tang Sheng," Wu Siyuan agreed very happily, "I don't know, who do you fall in love with?" ”
I didn't expect this matter to be solved in this way, Tang Qin was overjoyed, but how did Mr. Shao know that he wanted to hire Yuan Heping?
……
As the night deepened, the car sent Tang Qin back to the hotel where he was staying.
He had just taken a shower when Ren Dahui suddenly notified everyone of the meeting.
"It's so late, which door will it open?" Tang Qin asked Lu Shuming, Lu Shuming also drank wine, his face was red, "I don't know, I said that there was something important." ”
Before the two of them passed, Hong Universe stopped the two, he looked mysterious, and only said that there was something good.
What's the good thing? Lu Shuming had scared him in the play, but now that his eyes have been staring at him, Hong Universe is a little weak-hearted, "Have you ever heard of TVB's Taiqing?" ”
The Taiwan Celebration, also known as the TVB Anniversary Celebration, is held from October to mid-November every year, and is generally referred to as the "Taiwan Celebration Month".
Subsequently, in mid-October each year, the Executive Chairman, Sir Run Shaw, accompanied by the current Miss Hong Kong, will officiate at the "Taiwan Celebration Lighting Ceremony", which means that the "Taiwan Celebration Month" will be officially launched, and the upcoming "Taiwan Celebration Drama" and related TV programs will be introduced
Tang Qin thought for a while and said, "I've seen it on the news, and today it seems that there is only "Jade Singer Celebrating Taiwan......"
This is a competition between singers and singers, and the male and female singers will compete for the championship in two groups, red and white.
Hong Universe smiled, "I heard that we were going to be invited to participate in this show, and we were going to sing songs live, the chief producer was worried, I told him, Tang Qin, he sang Hutu's love ......"
"Me, that's an amateur singer......" A few people said and arrived at Ren Dahui's room, and sure enough, Ren Dahui took out a gilded invitation, "Sing, we can't lag behind, let's try it tonight, it's a total of three songs, the opening song, the ending song and this worship...... Let's see who's going to sing......
