Chapter 54 Resources
The tea is the best of all uniform hair, packaged in kraft paper, and there are only three cursive handwritten characters of "snail shell" on it. After opening it, Zhou Cheng, who was sitting opposite Liang Kun, immediately smelled a burst of fragrance. On closer inspection, the tea leaves are covered with white hair, curled like a fish hook.
Liang Kun did not let Shen Chuan brew this tea, but chose to do it himself. From under the coffee table, a mahogany tea table is taken out, with a set of white porcelain bowls and a clear glass kettle.
Even the water used to make tea is not purified water from a water dispenser, but is poured from a bucket of mineral water without a label, and after the water is boiled, it is not brewed immediately, but the teacup is scalded with it first.
"Uncle Liang is so Yaxing, this can't be the water on Yuquan Mountain, right?" Zhou Cheng asked tentatively. Liang Kun in another world is famous in the circle with Duyun tea and Yuquan water.
After Liang Kun scalded the cup, he took out a little tea leaves with a teaspoon and put them into the bottom of the cup. Then he looked at Zhou Cheng with a question and said, "You also know the allusion of Yuquan Mountain?" ”
Zhou Chengyao Yaotou: "I just heard my dad say it when I was a child, but I was too stubborn at that time, and I didn't hear it at all." The only thing I remember is that the water of Yuquan Mountain is called 'the first spring in the world', and Xizhimen is also a city gate dedicated to carrying water for the emperor. ”
"The tea saint Lu Yu once commented on the world's famous springs, led by Gu Curtain, followed by Huishan, and Tiger Run Longjing followed." Zhou Cheng's words scratched Liang Kun's itch, and while waiting for the water to cool down, he explained to him: "But the spring water assessed by Emperor Qianlong is different from that of the tea saint Lu Yu. Qianlong, on the other hand, took weight as the standard. It is said that Emperor Qianlong made a small silver bucket and personally weighed the spring water in the world. And the spring water of Biyun Temple in Yuquan Mountain in western Beijing is the lightest, only one or two points. It was praised by Qianlong as 'the first spring in the world'. ”
After listening to Liang Kun's story, Zhou Cheng got up and bowed to him and thanked him: "Thank you Uncle Liang for solving your doubts, if my father uses this to test me in the future, I will be able to answer the question fluently." ”
Liang Kun looked at Zhou Cheng's expression and saw that it was not a fraud, so he accepted it calmly: "Come and taste the tea, taste the hair tips of my hometown." Minister Zhou is a master of the tea ceremony. ”
"Uncle Liang, I'm just a vassal and elegant when it comes to tea tasting, and I don't know much. For Duyun Maojian, it's just to understand the reputation. Zhou Cheng knew that he had just revealed his edge, and he should hide it at this time: "The benefits of this, please ask Uncle Liang for your guidance." ”
Liang Kun smiled dumbly, pointed at Zhou Cheng and smiled: "You, you really don't look like a young man in his twenties." ”
Watching words, discussing springs, tasting tea, chatting, Zhou Cheng visited at half past nine, and stayed in Liang Kun's office until about ten o'clock, that is, he left on the grounds of not disturbing Liang Kun's office.
There are some things that Liang Kun will not promise, he only needs to show his attitude, and Shen Chuan, as an assistant, will naturally help him arrange it properly.
Zhou Cheng accompanied Shen Chuan to his office and selected suitable variety shows for Lin Shan to participate in. About half an hour later, Zhou Cheng said goodbye to Liang Kun with gratitude.
"How do you feel about Zhou Cheng?" Liang Kun stood at the window and looked at Zhou Cheng who was far away outside the gate, and asked Shen Chuan who was returning.
"Knowing the depths, knowing how to advance and retreat, very literate, and being a character." Shen Chuan did not hide it, but gave an evaluation based on his senses for Zhou Cheng.
When Zhou Cheng turned into a road in the direction of Yuyuantan and couldn't see his figure, Liang Kun turned around and asked Shen Chuan, "What is the qualification of the artist in his hand?" ”
"It can only be regarded as average, and it can reach second-tier artists at most." Shen Chuan gave an objective evaluation.
"What show was chosen? Is it a Mid-Autumn Festival party or a New Year's Day party? Liang Kun knew that Zhou Cheng would not choose a nationally eye-catching program like the Spring Festival Gala, otherwise Shen Chuan would not have such an evaluation. The attention of these two evenings is relatively low, and some chorus sessions or the second half of the session near the end can still give newcomers some opportunities. This is also Liang Kun's face for Zhou Kezhi.
"I didn't pick it, but chose an issue of "Avenue of Stars" in August, hoping to participate in an episode of the show with relatively average quality of contestants and win a weekly championship."
"Champion Zhou?" This time it was Liang Kun's turn to be surprised.
Shen Chuan said: "Yes, Zhou Cheng seems to have a clear understanding of the qualifications of the artist in his hands, maybe this artist is just a stepping stone for him to enter this industry." ”
"We have also come into contact with a lot of high-level cadres who have entered this industry, but there are not many people like Zhou Cheng who know how to measure."
Shen Chuan also complained: "Yes, the few people we came into contact with before asked to go to the Spring Festival Gala as soon as they came up, and I can't wait for us to directly hold the artists in their hands into a line." ”
Liang Kun thought for a while and said to Shen Chuan: "The weight of the weekly champion of "Avenue of Stars" is too small, not enough to bring out the artists in his hands. If he does well, give him a month of champions, or in the annual finals, arrange. Other variety shows depend on the situation, and at the end of the year, see if there is a chance to arrange a "Same Song" for him. ”
The heating renovation of Yuyuantan No. 6 Courtyard has not yet ended, and Zhou Cheng did not expect to meet Zhou Kezhi's car at the gate of the community.
"Come on." The window in the back seat fell, and Zhou Kezhi said to Zhou Cheng, who was sweating.
"Okay." Zhou Cheng was not polite, he took a detour to the other side, opened the door and sat in, and thanked the driver: "Thank you, Brother Chen." ”
Zhou Kezhi handed a bottle of water to Zhou Cheng: "Went to the TV station?" ”
"Dad, you're really powerful." Zhou Cheng took two sips to cool down, first praised Zhou Kezhi for a rainbow fart, and then suddenly said: "Director Liang must have called you." ”
"You're pretty quick to react." Zhou Kezhi smiled.
Five minutes ago, Zhou Kezhi had just received a call from Liang Kun, and although the other party only invited him to take the time to have a meal together, Zhou Kezhi also guessed what had happened.
Zhou Cheng looked at the time and teased Zhou Kezhi: "You won't skip work for this, right?" It's not time to leave work yet. ”
"I need to go to Sanya for a meeting on behalf of the city, so I'll come back and pack my things." Zhou Kezhi glanced at his son, and now he seemed to be more and more casual about himself: "I'm not at home during this time, you and Dayaduo come back to accompany your mother." ”
"I see." Zhou Cheng nodded: "It's just that I've been a little busy lately, so I'll try to find time as much as possible." ”
"Are you busy with drama?"
"Drama?" Zhou Cheng was stunned when he heard Zhou Kezhi's words, and then immediately asked, "Renyi has submitted the script to you for approval?" ”
"Yes, Chen An showed it to me after seeing your name." Zhou Kezhi looked at Zhou Cheng with satisfaction and said: "The script is well written, I didn't expect you to have talent in this area." ”
"That's it, I'm a top student in Nortel's literature department......" Zhou Cheng was originally going to show off, but then he thought that this was the worst education in the family, and then he was a little sneering.
"I learned about it, Dean Zhang said that in addition to performing in Renyi, this script of yours is also going to be filmed into a movie, right?"
When it came to the script, Zhou Cheng's frustration that had just risen was swept away: "Yes, I have applied for the support plan of the FIRST Film Festival, and the official has given a reply, and there will be 100,000 yuan of start-up funds at that time." ”
"100,000 yuan? What is your investment? ”
"The planned investment is about 10 million, of which Renyi will bear 30% of the investment."
Zhou Kezhi hesitated slightly, and said to Zhou Cheng: "The production department of Yanjing TV has an investment plan every year, if you need to, you can go to Director Wang to pull the investment." ”
"I still don't want it, I'm afraid it won't affect you well." Zhou Chengcheng shook his head decisively: "I am going to use the three million talents to prepare the crew for this play." In addition, there are already some well-informed film and television companies that are ready to invest after learning about the content of the script from the organizing committee of the film festival, and I want to wait until the festival to consider financing. If it doesn't go well, I'll take out a bank loan, so you don't have to worry about my funds. ”
"Okay, remember to mention it to me if you need to." Zhou Kezhi nodded with satisfaction.
Just like Zhao Chenan said to Zhou Cheng at the beginning, the past two years belong to the most critical moment in Zhou Kezhi's career, and there is no room for negligence. Zhou Cheng didn't want to use the production funds of the Yanjing TV Film and Television Center, but he didn't want to provide others with a handle to attack Zhou Kezhi. After all, it involves money investment and trust relationships to find resources for Lin Shan.
