Chapter 202 Master Chef's Passion
"Mr. Li's actor-level acting skills! I'm convinced!"

"Hahaha!"

Zhang Rilong laughed happily.

Shameless Zhang Rilong said loudly: "My heroic appearance must be included in the opening song and promotional video! Let everyone remember my acting skills and heroic appearance before seeing the feature film!"

"Director Li is awesome!"

"Absolute fire!"

Leng Biying squeezed into the crowd, looked up at the people around her, she didn't feel like she was telling a lie.

The handsome Huang Wei next to Leng Biying, this idol man also wearing a super chef uniform, sighed.

"Director Li's acting skills make me feel ashamed. I can't compare in singing, composing, and even acting is a few streets behind, alas!"

Leng Biying looked at Huang Wei in shock, and then at the laughing Zhang Rilong.

The big eyes were full of big doubts.

Although Zhang Rilong has many shortcomings, Leng Biying has always felt that Zhang Rilong is very calm, even if he is arrogant, he is only mad at what he is good at!

He has that capital!

Whether it is music or directing, whether it is learning or sports, he is very, very good.

Even in the obviously awkward costumes now, it can be seen that he is really happy now.

The problem now is that people around him are praising him for his acting skills, and they even said that his acting skills just now shocked everyone.

Leng Biying originally thought it was a compliment from everyone, after all, this guy is a celebrity director.

But now not only others, but even Zhang Rilong himself is laughing, obviously recognizing his acting skills.

A smart child like Leng Biying began to doubt her aesthetics at this moment.

These are professionals, and they all agree on something in unison.

So, don't you know that I'm an outsider?

"Guaranteed to be a hit! This time the script has been approved by several top-tier directors, and they all praised the script as good!"

"They are all professional. They have been making movies for more than ten years, decades. Some of them come from a family of directors, and their grandparents are directors!"

"No problem, we don't understand the preferences of the audience, can they still understand?"

"How much money they take and how many things they do, they dare not do nothing."

"If something goes wrong, they will have no good fruit to eat. We are worried, but they are even more afraid. If this thing gets messed up, they will have a harder time than us."

"The following five provinces dare to let a 17-year-old kid take charge. We have arranged several well-known directors to divide the work at the same time. Why don't you feel relieved?"

When Zhang Rilong started shooting and finishing post-production special effects, the Beijing circle also moved.

It doesn't matter if you have Zhang Rilong's script or not. In fact, it's useless even if you go with his script.

That is hundreds of years of foundation, and it is also the most settled place in the circle.

But it has nothing to do with Zhang Rilong, as Leng Biying said, Zhang Rilong is very self-aware.

Another half month later, after the prime-time slot was vacated in Hangzhou, "The Chinese God of Chef" will play on the second day of the finale of "Legend of Sword and Fairy".

The first episode of "Genius Chef Boy" finished playing soon.

The topic is also getting hotter

"When did the scene in the OP appear? When did the scene in that red and white dress appear? So handsome! It feels like I have a real big brother in my head."

"The male lead is too big, he doesn't look like a 14-year-old boy."

"I look like a 14-year-old boy, like a little brother who just took the high school entrance examination."

"Why do I feel like a handsome 18-year-old taking the college entrance examination?"

"Teacher Li Xunhuan is just seventeen this year, he can act like anything."

"Why is it called Zhang Rilong? It's too ugly, Li Xunhuan is so nice!"

"Will the main character fight with pots and kitchen knives?"

"Will the dragons in the OP take part in the battle?"

"What's the name of the BGM during the meal?"

"The Great Wall is available on the official website."

"The cooking posture is so handsome!"

"all fake."

"In the action of cutting vegetables, many vegetables fly up and assemble together. It's so handsome!"

"I want fried rice with eggs."

"Egg fried rice is egg fried rice. Only in cartoons can there be glowing egg fried rice."

"Chuan Sheng Chuan downstairs, is there really such a place?"

***
after half a month

Shangguan Mingyue and the others had dinner with Zhang Rilong again.

Shangguan Mingyue said: "The discussion of the first episode of Chinese God of Cooking mainly focused on the songs, BGM and the acting skills of the protagonist, but the popularity was not as good as when Legend of Sword and Fairy first aired."

Zhang Rilong explained indifferently: "Some people don't see the popularity."

Tao Li Nianhua asked, "Then what are you looking at?"

Zhang Rilong explained: "Before the filming, I reached an agreement with the higher-ups to comprehensively judge the quality of the show based on the increase in sales of various corresponding agricultural products after the broadcast of Chinese God of Cooking, as well as spot-check inquiries about the corresponding delicacies in various regions."

"That is to say, even if the show's reputation is not good, or the advertising revenue and follow-up sales do not make back [-] million yuan, I will not take any responsibility."

Shangguan Mingyue looked at Zhang Rilong with astonishment and amused expression, "Use the sales of agricultural products to judge the quality of a drama?"

Zhang Rilong nodded, "Yes, take the first episode as an example, which corresponds to rice, eggs, carrots, green peppers, cooking wine, soybeans, tofu and other materials. As long as the sales of this show increase significantly, then I will win."

"And I have signed a gambling agreement with the above in private. It will be counted every episode. I will give me a bonus of 100 million once I do it. I have signed with all five provinces."

Zhang Rilong stretched out his palm, and his five fingers represented five million people in five provinces.

"I just received the bonus for the first episode today. I spent almost ten days conducting research, mainly comparing the sales volume of large supermarkets in the first and last three days. I also visited small restaurants and mobile vendors in various places. It is indeed true. The sales of egg fried rice are a little bit higher.”

"Especially in Sichuan and Zhejiang provinces, some people bought rice for the first time, and bought a small rice cooker and eggs for cooking rice along the way."

Shangguan Mingyue and the others shut up, and only then did they realize why Zhang Rilong was appointed as the head of the crew by the five provinces. Whether it was the selection of actors or the use of funds, he alone had the final say.

"Director Li, I offer you a toast!" Shangguan Mingyue stood up and toasted Zhang Rilong.

What she drank was wine, while what Zhang Rilong drank was water.

Zhang Rilong looked at Tao Li Nianhua, "How is your song preparation going?"

"I'm preparing, and I've been practicing singing for a while." Tao Li Nianhua replied, and then said, "I heard that this drama is too rich to spend?"

Zhang Rilong smiled and said: "Yes, I agreed to only take 40 million yuan, and the shooting cost was [-] million yuan. Up to now, the funds received have exceeded [-] billion yuan. Recently, there are several large life stores that want to sponsor. Before the end, the money received can exceed [-] billion."

Apart from the two singers, there were also people in and outside the circle participating in the dinner party this time.

Chen Zhenghui, a well-known first-line director in Guangzhou, said: "It's equivalent to the summer box office of a phenomenal popular movie."

Shangguan Mingyue said with a smile: "When Director Chen said that, it seems that Director Li earns less."

Chen Zhenghui said seriously: "It's not about money. Movies do make money, but the function of this TV series is much more useful than a few blockbuster movies. Let me toast you, Director Li."

Zhang Rilong raised his cup to meet the other party, bowed his head and took a sip, then put the bowl beside him, and pointed to the vegetable soup in front of him with his finger.

The cheongsam waitress standing next to him quickly walked up to Zhang Rilong, bent down and filled a bowl of soup for Zhang Rilong with a long spoon, then stepped back respectfully and stood there waiting for service at any time.

Zhang Rilong said: "After shooting this film, I will study with peace of mind. Too much time is wasted. I won't take any films until the end of next year."

Chen Zhenghui showed a regretful expression, "I still want to cooperate with Director Li to shoot a New Year's Eve file, it seems it's just a bad luck."

Zhang Rilong said: "It's really a coincidence, let's not talk about filming for a while, and I will try not to participate in the dinner."

Shangguan Mingyue asked: "What do you plan to do with the excess funds?"

Zhang Rilong said directly: "According to the investment ratio, it will be divided into six shares. I will take one share to reward me and the actors and production teams in the crew, and the rest will be refunded to the local finance bureaus."

***
It's almost September

The full-length stills of Chef Zhang Rilong were posted in the vegetable and aquatic product sections of major supermarkets...

Zhang Rilong did not advertise. Many supermarket chains obtained Zhang Rilong's portrait rights after sponsoring the film crew, and used special chef Zhang Rilong to sell vegetables.

At the same time, Zhang Rilong's materials and files were also placed on the desks of many people.

Whether it is a first-tier city or a second-tier city, whether it is a dignitary or some middleman.
