Chapter 468: Dinner at the Friendship Hotel

Although he returned to Kyoto in the past two years, Xu Zhengdao no longer lived in the Friendship Hotel. But he has a household registration in Xiangjiang, and he has a good relationship with the hotel manager, and he wants to book two tables of banquets in the hotel's restaurant, so naturally there is no problem.

The real reason why the hotel is willing to receive is that Xu Zhengdao is willing to pay foreign exchange!

Since it is a company dinner, ordinary staff naturally have opportunities. Originally, according to He Xiaowu's meaning, it was not to leave someone on duty. Xu Zhengdao said very directly, what can be delayed in just one meal?

When the group arrived at the Friendship Hotel, Jiang Wen, who was a local, had never been to this kind of restaurant that needed foreign exchange for dinner. But they all know that the chefs of the Friendship Hotel are said to be the chefs of the imperial dining room.

With such exquisite cooking, there are probably not many customers who can eat it. Follow Xu Zhengdao to see it, everyone is also full of interest!

Seeing Xu Zhengdao and his entourage who arrived at the hotel, the hotel manager Chen Xingguo also smiled and said: "Mr. Lin, I haven't seen you for a long time!" ”

"I haven't seen you for a while, I only come here to eat now, I don't come to live with you, okay?"

"What about that! If you want to come to us to consume, it's too late for me to be happy! Enter, everybody, please. ”

Seeing Xu Zhengdao, who was chatting and laughing with the hotel manager, the artists who followed him also knew that the general manager's connections in Kyoto were probably stronger than they imagined. It seems to be just the manager of the hotel, but the identity is not simple.

Nowadays, being able to serve as the manager of a foreign-related hotel must have a very unusual family background. Otherwise, how could such a good errand be their turn? They are all adults, who doesn't understand such a thing as sophistication?

Arriving at the specially reserved box, Xu Zhengdao handed the menu to Jiang Wen and the others, and said directly: "You guys order!" Although this is a hotel's own restaurant, there are many dishes to choose from, but the prices are a little more expensive. ”

"Mr. Lin, I heard that the chefs in the hotel are all imperial chefs, is it true?"

"Not really, I really don't know. But what I do know is that the food here is really good. If you want to come here in the future, then prepare foreign exchange. Eating here, people only accept foreign exchange. ”

"That's true! As we are now, like someone with foreign exchange in their pocket? ”

"Not now, doesn't mean there won't be in the future. There is no American knife, and people also accept incense coins. It's just the official exchange rate, so if you want to come here to eat, you just have to prepare your own money in advance. ”

When the menu went around in front of everyone, and when he saw the last dish ordered, Xu Zhengdao ordered a few more hard dishes, although the price was a little expensive, he still felt that it didn't matter. After all, he's really not bad for money now!

While ordering the food, Xu Zhengdao continued: "Daoming, shall we drink red or white?" ”

Cheng Daoming, who was asked, thought for a while and said, "There is red wine here?" ”

"How can a foreign-related restaurant not have red wine? The red wines here are not from the top wineries, but they taste very good. You should have drunk in a wine bar at the reception of the film festival before? ”

"Drunk! But it's Champagne that drinks the most! ”

"So be it! Let's order some red wine and white wine, drink more, drink more, don't drink, drink less. Let's have dinner inside, and don't do those vain things. You women, eat, drink, feast, and drink as little wine as possible. ”

"yes, got it!"

"Although nowadays, the situation in the domestic film and television industry is relatively pure, and there is not so much dark side. But I would like to take the opportunity of this dinner to tell you very directly. As long as you don't want to, no one can force you.

Of course, there are no love bans in the company, but I hope you will be as clean as possible. You actors, my requirements for you are very simple, not to mention that I ask you to start from the beginning, but emotional matters must not be boiled. ”

After seeing the actors nodding their heads to indicate that they knew, Xu Zhengdao looked at the actresses again and said, "Now that you are all filming the company's films, you will definitely not encounter those dirty things." But when you become famous in the future, you will inevitably encounter this kind of thing.

Let me give you a word, as long as you sit upright, no matter what kind of rich man he is, or what big backers he has. Whoever dares to do rude or even excessive things to you, then you can lift the table, and I will bear the matter.

I don't mean that you're going to cause trouble. What I mean by this is that I don't want you to cause trouble, but I also want you not to be afraid. Of course, if you want to, then the company won't interfere in this kind of thing, understand? ”

"Understood, thank you, Mr. Lin!"

"No thanks, as a contracted artist of the company, protecting your personal safety is the company's responsibility and obligation. Ah Li and Lao Jiang are all wandering around China at present, and they are not very clear about the situation abroad.

But I believe that when Xiao Xu and Xiao Hui were filming in Xiangjiang, they should have heard a lot about the Xiangjiang entertainment industry, right? This kind of thing, when the mainland film and television industry becomes thriving, I am afraid that some will inevitably happen.

The underground forces rampant in Xiangjiang dare not provoke our company's artists. At home, we can do the same. It's just that I also hope that you don't take the initiative to provoke these things. After all, this kind of dirty thing sticks and troubles! ”

Listening to Xu Zhengdao's words, Cheng Daoming also said seriously: "Mr. Lin, I was in Xiangjiang earlier, and I heard that there are people from underground forces who send bullets to popular actors and forcibly invite them to act, is there such a thing?" ”

"It's hearsay, but there is definitely such a thing. Do you know why many artists want to join our company now? The reason is simple, we have a security company that is full of veterans.

Dare to provoke our company's signed artists, those underground forces are waiting for bad luck. Although the situation in China is definitely different from that of Xiangjiang. But our company is a foreign-funded enterprise, and whoever dares to stab or make trouble, you all know the consequences.

That's why I often warn you to be cautious in what you say and do when you become a public figure. If you let some people with a heart, catch your little handle. I really can't solve it, you can tell me, and I'll solve it for you.

But the premise is that what you do does does not touch on illegal crimes. I certainly wouldn't discourage the hobby of smoking and drinking. But if you let me know about crimes, I'll take the initiative to send you into the bureau, understand? ”

"Got it!"

Through the opportunity of the dinner, Xu Zhengdao also gave support as usual, and at the same time, he beat them again by the way. Regardless of whether this admonition is useful or not, at least in the future, when they want to do something bad, they will hesitate to think about whether it is worth doing.

To put it simply, they are the contracted artists, and the company can find a new generation of actors to replace them at any time. And what about them? Losing the protection of the company and touching the law, what awaits them?

It was only at this moment that they really understood why the older generation of actors would emphasize the need for both virtue and art. And Xu Zhengdao's warning, isn't it true that in the future, they can also become actors or artists with both virtue and art?
