Chapter 396 I like it very much
Sun Shuli said: "Xiao Zhang is not my nephew." In the past, he said he was his nephew, mainly because he wanted Zhao Laogen to help with his business.
Zhao Laogen said: "It's either a nephew or an apprentice."
Zhang Hehuan said: "Yes, I am his apprentice."
Zhao Laogen said: "Teaching your disciple to starve to death. I think your disciple is better than you. Child, no matter how good we are, we can't float away!"
Zhang Hehuan said: "Teacher Zhao, I am honest and can't float up."
Several people laughed.
Zhang Hehuan took them to visit the company and saw that the time was almost over, so he invited them to the restaurant.
Master Zhao Laogen did not have much hope for the company canteen. In fact, they were not very particular about food. After all, they were all from poor backgrounds. Zhao Laogen personally cooked and cooked when he was in the Northeast.
Seeing the exquisite dishes on the table, Zhao Laogen said, "It's so grand, so grand."
Yang Shulin said: "Your company's food is good, Master, look at other people's company, should we learn about our company's food?"
Geng Xianglong smiled and said, "Their company culture is about eating. Anyway, I have seen so many company canteens, and the best food here is here."
Sun Shuli said: "Only companies who eat well can have cohesion and employees can have the strength to do things."
Zhang Hehuan said: "Today, because of the arrival of two distinguished guests, Mr. Zhao and Gengtai, I specially invited Mr. Cui Ruhai, a famous Hangzhou cuisine master in our country, to take care of it. Our employees do not have this treatment."
Zhao Laogen smiled and said, "It seems that I have a good time."
Zhang Hehuan said: "I still miss the pig-killing vegetables that Teacher Zhao has made with his own hands."
Zhao Laogen patted his shoulder and said, "Go to my place this winter and I will make arrangements for you."
Several people asked Zhao Laogen to sit in the first place. Sun Shuli and Geng Xianglong sat on the left and right respectively, leaving a seat for Cui Ruhai. Zhang Hehuan chose Caikou. Zhao Laogen insisted on letting him sit next to Sun Shuli and let his two apprentices sit in the lower head.
Geng Xianglong was also very surprised to meet Zhao Laogen's master and apprentice here. Although Zhao Laogen has chosen to fade out of the public eye, he still has great influence in the comedy world and even the entire entertainment industry. Even if he no longer performs on stage, many of his apprentices have become the leading figures in the comedy world.
Song Poly is here, who is one of the most popular comedy stars. Geng Xianglong wants to establish a deep cooperative relationship with Laogen Media. Putting aside variety shows, he still has two ace IPs in his hands. Looking around the country, who can surpass Zhao Laogen when it comes to rural comedy? He has filmed more than a dozen rural love films, and the ratings of each department are super high. He beats the TV series of the same period and has never failed. This is what Zhao Laogen is so awesome about.
After three rounds of drinking, Zhang Hehuan toasted Zhao Laogen two glasses of wine alone, thanking him for his righteous help last time.
Zhao Laogen drank the wine and said to Zhang Hehuan: "I have been in love with Lao Sun for many years. You are his apprentice. What else can I say? I regard you as my own child. From now on, you and Xiaobao, Shulin, and they often walk around, help more in their careers, give birth to less children, and have more trees, and have more children and multiple roads."
Yang Shulin quickly corrected: "Master, they have multiple friends and multiple roads."
Zhao Laogen glared: "You know what the hell is that I mean three of us, we have multiple children and multiple roads. In our eyes, aren't you all our children?"
Zhang Hehuan secretly admired Zhao Laogen, although he was a farmer, his emotional intelligence was extraordinary. It was no coincidence that he had nothing to his current wealth.
Zhang Hehuan said: "Uncle Zhao, if you have something to use for me in the future, just give me instructions."
Zhao Laogen said: "Previous people plant trees and later people enjoy the cool air. How can we work for elders and younger generations do you have the truth? It should be that you can use us. Don't have any worries. Just talk. Life has only been there for so many years. We still have some remaining energy now. If we don't help our children, do we still have to help outsiders?"
Geng Xianglong praised: "Teacher Zhao is right, I respect you."
Zhao Laogen was in a good mood today and refused everyone, but everyone understood that his health was no better than before, and he didn't force him to drink.
Cui Ruhai cooked the dishes, and Zhang Hehuan invited him in person.
Zhao Laogen took the initiative to stand up and toast Cui Ruhai.
Cui Ruhai was flattered: "Teacher Zhao, this is not something I can do. I am your loyal fan. If you want to toast, I should toast you."
Zhao Laogen said: "I have two major hobbies now, one is cooking and the other is writing. Don't be polite, let's have two drinks together."
As the host, Zhang Hehuan naturally needs to drink more. He has excellent alcohol tolerance and is good at speaking. Zhao Laogen likes him quite a lot. He heard that he was a broadcaster and remembered his apprentice, Dapeng, who is also an announcer, and is currently transforming into film and television, giving Zhang Hehuan the opportunity to contact Dapeng.
After the meal, Zhang Hehuan asked the employees to give the prepared gifts to the guests, which were signed by "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" and several customized The Condor Heroes figures made by the company.
Taking advantage of Zhao Laogen's happiness, he asked him to engrave the inscription "China on the Bite of the Tongue".
Zhao Laogen readily agreed and wrote six big words "China on the Bite of the Tongue". When he was the most popular, one word could be sold for two million.
Geng Xianglong and Sun Shuli watched from the side, secretly praising Zhang Hehuan for understanding the way of business. Before the documentary was broadcast, she took advantage of the halo of celebrities.
After Zhao Laogen left, Geng Xianglong stayed at the company to watch a preliminarily produced episode of "China on the Bite of the Tongue". Zhang Hehuan and Mu Xichun accompanied him to watch it. After Geng Xianglong watched this episode, his mood was difficult to calm down for a long time. It can be described as shock. This is not an ordinary documentary. In the past, it was said that food was a kind of culture, but it was the first one that could really use a documentary to make people see culture and feel the deep patriotism.
Maybe not the first one, but it is definitely the most successful and shocking one.
Geng Xianglong couldn't wait to see other parts. The lights in the cinema began to illuminate, and the teacup next to Geng Xianglong didn't move at all. He was so focused.
Mu Xichun actually kept paying attention to Geng Xianglong's expression during the watching process. He knew in his heart that this documentary should have shocked him and said with a smile: "I'm already hungry."
Geng Xianglong picked up the tea cup and drank a sip of the tea, still recalling a sentence in the film: I brought the water bottle and poured boiling water into the tea cup. Suddenly, the Longjing tea in the water flew up and down like millions of small fish, which looked very beautiful.
Geng Xianglong felt a little sour in his heart. They have always wanted to make a program with cultural heritage to popularize Chinese culture and popularize science to the public. Although such programs are unlikely to win high ratings, in the long run, the significance of such programs is far greater than that of those extremely popular variety shows and TV series.
The series of popular science documentaries produced by the BBC have always been regarded as the leader in the industry. When their media people hold meetings, they often discuss when we can make such a documentary, full of humanistic atmosphere, style, connotation, and thought-provoking.
Not only is there anyone in the industry trying, but basically it ends in a bleak situation, society is becoming increasingly impetuous, and the media circle is even more so. Media people are looking at money. Their focus is on ratings and advertising investment, their attention to humanities, and social civilization is becoming less and less. The general entertainment situation of the media industry is becoming more and more serious, ignoring the essence of media existence and ignoring the responsibilities and conscience of media people.
Geng Xianglong was really moved by this documentary. He had the impulse to do it well. This documentary can definitely win an award.
When he thought of the award, he became excited again, and then felt ashamed that he should not consider winning the award. If this documentary can bring thought to the audience and awaken the audience's recognition and love for the traditional Chinese food culture, it will be a great thing to benefit future generations and descendants.
Zhang Hehuan said: "What do Geng Tai think?"
"I like it very much!" Geng Xianglong finished speaking, as if he felt that his expression was not complete enough, and added: "I like it very much!"
Zhang Hehuan thought to myself that I knew you would like it. Judging from the time he had been in contact with Geng Xianglong, Geng Xianglong still has the awesomeness and ideals of many cultural people. He still wants to convey some positive energy to the audience through the program. Unlike some leaders of the station, everything is in line with the ratings.
Zhang Hehuan said: "There are seven episodes in total, and it is ready to premiere this Mid-Autumn Festival. The schedule will be handed over to Gengtai."
Geng Xianglong said: "I will try my best to coordinate the best schedule."
Mu Xichun said: "Gengtai, according to our previous cooperation agreement, we can start investment now."
Geng Xianglong nodded and said, "I will cooperate with you with all my strength. At the end of the month, I will organize a movie watching meeting and start investment at the same time."
Zhang Hehuan said: "At the end of the month, Zhongtai will also put this book on the shelves."
Geng Xianglong said: "There is no need to be any pressure on ratings. We are doing word of mouth and culture. During the Mid-Autumn Festival, such a humanistic program will resonate with many viewers. Anyway, I like it very much." This is the second time he has clearly expressed his like.
Mu Xichun said: "Actually, the current TV shows are too impetuous. I hope this documentary can bring a fresh wind to the increasingly entertaining TV circle."
Before the publication of "China on the Bite of the Tongue", Zhang Hehuan's expectations for the publication of this book were not too high. After all, this book needs to be brought by the popularity of TV programs, but if you can withstand loneliness, soon after, with the broadcast of TV programs, the sales of books will definitely rise steadily.
As Zhang Hehuan expected, "China on the Bite of the Tongue", which was first printed 100,000 copies, did not show any popularity and sales after it was released. According to statistics from China Thailand, the total sales of this book were only 1,000 copies in the country after it was released.
Chapter completed!
