Tomorrow happened to be Sunday and he didn't have to go to work. Shen Long lay on the bed with his cell phone in his hands, found "The House of Gold" and watched it carefully several times. After watching it, he had a preliminary understanding of the plot.

The film begins with the final of the 19th No. 1 Celebrity Chef Competition. Liao Jie from Yangzhou Building in Huadu faces Long Kunbao from Lu Yu Building in Xiangjiang. The competition is divided into three parts.

In the first game, compared to boiled white rice, the rice cooked by Long Kunbao had a hint of ginseng aroma.

In the second sword competition, Long Kunbao carved an ice sculpture of the Great Wall that could focus light, while Liao Jie won the game with the long-lost tofu carving.

The third game is the most crucial. Whoever wins will be crowned the winner of the game. This competition is about making fish. Long Kunbao used sea fish to make a sea dragon pearl, which was greatly appreciated by the judges.

Liao Jie originally planned to make soup-filled yellow croaker, but before the competition, he received a call saying that his pregnant lover had an accident and was sent to the hospital. He was in urgent need of his companionship and care. With the competition on one side and his wife on the other, Liao Jie was caught in a dilemma. realm.

In the end, he gave up the game and rushed to the hospital, but only saw an empty operating table. The doctor told him that his wife Lin Shang had a miscarriage due to an accident, and was disappointed that he did not come to accompany him. He left a letter and left. Leave.

The beginning of the film ends here, and the subsequent plot has little to do with this mission.

This task doesn't seem too difficult. Just find Liao Jie's wife before the accident and ensure that she doesn't have an accident. Or you can send her to the hospital in time. But how to determine the time and place where this incident occurred?

Shen Long studied it carefully and searched on the Internet, but he also found information about the first celebrity chef competition. However, this competition seemed to be held later and was not the same as the one in the movie.

Then we can only infer from other details. Shen Long remembered what Leslie Cheung in the film said to a Hong Kong student, "My girl Yamaguchi Momoe went to Canada, and I want to go to Canada to find her."

It was much easier to collect information about Yamaguchi Momoe. He quickly found out that Yamaguchi Momoe went to Canada several times in the 1980s and 1990s. Among them, the longest trip was in 1993. This time was relatively close to the time of filming of the movie. It was very interesting. Maybe that's when the movie officially starts.

In the movie, Liao Jie sank for five years after Lin Shang left, so the 19th No. 1 Chef Competition should have been held in 1988.

As for the venue, it should be in the city where Liao Jie and Lin Shang live, because he rushed to the hospital quickly after giving up the competition, and travel was inconvenient at that time, so it was unlikely that he would take his wife, who was about to give birth, to participate in the competition elsewhere. .

The answer came out immediately. Although the Forbidden City was shown at the beginning of the film, the competition was actually held in Huadu.

This is also consistent with the final result of the competition. In the end, two chefs entered the finals. One is from Huadu and the other is from Xiangjiang. It would be different if the competition were held in the capital. The capital started from the former Qing Dynasty. I have always admired Shandong cuisine, and it is impossible not to have Shandong cuisine chefs in the finals.

At the same time, the country had just opened up in the 1980s, and supplies were relatively scarce. It did not seem appropriate to hold a celebrity chef competition in a place with an extremely strong political atmosphere like Beijing. On the contrary, it was the forefront of opening up, and it was also known as the city of gourmet food. It would be more appropriate to hold such competitions.

Well, the place he wanted to go to now was the Huadu in 1988. Shen Long was basically certain of this.

However, a new problem emerged. He could not speak Cantonese and did not have the documents he had at that time. Social mobility at that time was far worse than it is now. If he did not have these two things, he might be arrested by the police as soon as he showed up. .

So in order to complete the task, we have to solve the identity and language problems first. By the way, we can't lose money either. We may have to stay in Huadu for a few days this time. Food and accommodation will cost money.

You have to first find a counterfeit certificate dealer to get a set of certificates that can be used in 1988, then find a player who collects currency to exchange for some old banknotes, and you also have to figure out what kind of identity you should use to contact Liao Jie.

The movie didn't reveal what Lin Shang did. Which hospital was where he was treated, so he could only start with Liao Jie. Fortunately, the movie named the restaurant where Liao Jie was, so he only had to go to Yangzhou Building in Huadu to find it. , even if he is not here, you can just ask the staff at Yangzhou Building.

As long as these problems can be solved, the risk of this mission should not be high.

Shen Long had a good night's sleep and went out to have a meal. Last night, he remembered that he had an acquaintance who was part of the crew, so he called him immediately. The other person introduced him to an expert who specialized in making various film and television props.

After changing the subway twice, I found the other party's store and reported my friend's name, "Our crew is going to shoot a TV series set in the 1980s. We need some props. I wonder if you can make them here?" After that, I said what I wanted to say. The type of documents to be produced, "These documents must be exactly the same as the real ones, and there must be no mistakes."

"We don't do this kind of thing very often, but it's no problem. We can make it by just checking the information. How many copies do you want? When do you want them?" These are expired documents, and the prop master didn't have much doubts about it. Agree.

"Let's make a set first and have a look. If there's no problem, I'll ask you to make a large batch of them. Well, just use my photo on the first one." Shen Long was afraid that the other party wouldn't pay attention and would come up with big business in the future. Tempt him.

"Okay, let me go to the back to take a photo first, and then come and pick it up next week." After giving out a number, Shen Long had a toothache. He didn't expect this thing to be quite expensive.

"There are cheap ones too. It doesn't make any difference from a distance, as long as you don't close them up. If you want one, it can be done in three days, and the price is only one third of the price."

"Forget it, let's just do what I just said." Just kidding, I'm not making a movie, so I definitely don't dare to save money here.

After paying the money, he turned around and went to the gathering place for collectors in the capital. Old banknotes were much easier to find than fake certificates. You could buy them with just money. But the price gave Shen Long a headache. For this time The task cost him several months' wages.

A week later, Shen Long got the certificate as scheduled. The prop master was very professional and even added an old-fashioned process. At least from the appearance, it was exactly the same as what Shen Long found online, and there was no difference.
