A Mouthful of Sky-high Fried Rice, Lao Tang Apprenticed on the Spot

Being interrupted by Li Yi, Zeng Shun still had some unfinished thoughts.

But he quickly reacted and asked excitedly: "What do you mean, do you want to hand over this documentary to me?"

"right."

Li Yi smiled and nodded.

When he heard Zeng Shun talking about You Wei, Li Yi knew that he was definitely the best candidate to film "The Tip of the Tongue".

Because the entire "Bite of the Tongue" has always adhered to the key of seeing from the micro, and has always told the food culture of this ancient nation in its thousands of years of history from the perspective of ordinary people.

The fact that Zeng Shun could say this showed that he really understood what Li Yi wanted.

Therefore, Li Yi was relatively relieved to leave this film to him.

After getting the exact news from Li Yi, Zeng Shun couldn't conceal his excitement. He couldn't help but hold Li Yi's hand and thanked him repeatedly: "Thank you! Thank you so much! Thank you Mr. Li for giving me this opportunity!"

For a director, being able to shoot a documentary is definitely the most luxurious dream.

Because the vast majority of documentaries do not make any money, they are just throwing money into the water.

But if given the chance, every director would want to make a documentary of his own.

In the film and television industry, directors who can make documentaries, regardless of whether they have money or not, will be praised and praised by their peers.

Because compared to commercial films, documentaries are much higher in both style and cultural value.

More than 20,000 movies are produced around the world every year, but 99% of them are garbage, and only a small number of high-quality movies are accepted and liked by the audience.

And these few exquisite works will be forgotten by people after the erosion of time and become the dust of history.

Some directors may think that directing is just a profession, as long as you can make money.

Such a director is very suitable for making commercial works, as long as he makes money.

But some directors are more pretentious and entangled, and want to shoot something truly valuable.

Some top directors will find ways to add artistry to movies and show their unique charm.

Documentaries, on the other hand, use a direct perspective to record the ever-changing world, allowing shooting to return to its essence.

Many high-quality documentaries are precious video materials, recording everything that happened in the real world over a period of time.

It is precisely because of its authenticity that it is distinguished from entertainment-oriented commercial and art films.

As Zeng Shun himself said, he believes that documentaries are works of art that can be passed down to future generations.

This was exactly the passion he had when he entered the directing department, and it was his true ideal.

Life spans only a few hundred years, and only a few people can leave some traces on this world.

Countless great celebrities in history are nothing more than an article, or even a line, or a name in history books.

And this is already extraordinary.

The vast majority of people are drowned in the words, washed away by time, leaving not even a trace.

Zeng Shun originally thought that he would just stay in the TV station and live his life peacefully. In the end, like most people, he would die silently, be forgotten by his grandchildren, and disappear completely.

But he never thought that he would have the opportunity to shoot a serious documentary and leave something valuable to the world.

This incident made him ecstatic, but extremely nervous. He was afraid that Li Yi would dislike him for his lack of resume, think he was not strong enough, look down on him, and wouldn't let him film.

So after getting the script, he studied it repeatedly, dug into it from all angles, understood it, and made countless preparations.

Huangtian paid off his hard work, and the job finally fell into his hands. At this moment, he was extremely happy.

Patting him with a smile, Li Yi encouraged: "I invested my own money in this film. I hope you can film it well and show your best strength and condition."

"Mr. Li, don't worry! I'm here to win an award for this film. If I don't win an award, I won't pay a penny for the director's fee!"

Zeng Shun grinned happily.

"No, just take good pictures."

Li Yi smiled and explained: "Then you go back and get the crew together, and we will try to start filming within a week."

"Okay, I'll book the tickets now, and I'll call everyone within three days!"

He was even more anxious than Li Yi, so he took out his mobile phone and started booking flights.

By the time Wang Tian and Li Yi were about to go out to the restaurant, he had already called a car and headed straight to the airport.

The celebration party started at 6 p.m., but the restaurant had already started preparations in the afternoon.

Originally, Wang Tian's intention was to arrange the celebration banquet in a larger hotel, such as the Great Wall Hotel and so on.

But the staff unanimously said that it can be done anywhere, as long as the food is cooked by Li Yi.

Although the staff all took turns to try the [Dragon and Phoenix Feast] yesterday, none of them were satisfied with it. They just tasted it.

After all, the protagonist yesterday was a guest at the scene, and the staff should not overshadow the guest.

But now that the show is over, they naturally want to enjoy a meal of Li Yi's craftsmanship.

During this period of time, they had helped Li Yi a lot.

Li Yi gave them a lot of work, and they did it with all their heart.

Therefore, Li Yi had already planned to make some dishes to reward them.

Therefore, Li Yi contacted the restaurant's chef in advance and asked the kitchen staff to buy all the ingredients listed by him, including those that should be cooked and those that should be cooked.

After a while, he had just enough time to make the dish.

The chef had no complaints about this and was even extremely attentive.

Especially the chef, who almost considers Li Yi his godfather.

Since he didn't have time to deal with it himself, Li Yi told him the method and requirements on how to make soup, and asked him to deal with it.

In ancient times, this would have been a skill that could last a lifetime, but he learned it effortlessly. It was like pie in the sky.

Therefore, when Li Yi arrived in the kitchen, he accompanied him the whole time and personally helped Li Yi.

It seemed a bit shameful for him to lick Li Yi like this in front of the kitchen team, but he didn't feel that way.

He has also been watching "Chinese Restaurant", and he even watched the entire live broadcast to the end yesterday.

To be able to be the head chef of a five-star hotel in the core area of ​​Beijing, he has seen a lot.

He still knew the meaning behind the golden apron worn by Hao Libao, the chief chef of the State Guesthouse.

Therefore, after seeing Hao Libao personally wrapping the golden apron around Li Yi, he knew that Li Yi was definitely a top chef who could stand with Hao Libao.

Therefore, he was eager for Li Yi to come to the kitchen to demonstrate his cooking skills so that he could learn two more tricks.

The ingredients are all ready, all you need to do is cook.

Li Yi made all the dishes with three strokes, five divided by two, and it was time for the banquet.

After finishing the hot stir-fry, Li Yi took off his apron and went to sit at the table outside.

He doesn't need to make the rest of the stews, cooking dishes, or soups. He just needs to put them out after the heat is up.

In the banquet hall, the staff were all here, sitting on several large round tables, chattering and laughing.

Seeing Li Yi coming, the staff jumped up and happily pulled Li Yi to sit at their table.

After glancing at Liu Yifei, who was sitting and joking with Liu Xiaoli, Li Yi was pulled to the table by Master Cai and drank two glasses of wine.

There was one person who took the lead, and the rest naturally followed suit. They all came to Li Yi with cups in hand, wanting to have a drink with Li Yi.

Noticing what was going on here, Liu Yifei couldn't sit still anymore. She quickly got up and ran over. She took Li Yi and smiled at the staff: "You drink first. I have something to discuss with Brother Yi."

With that said, she pulled Li Yi back to the main table and sat down.
