you are in the depths of time [gl]

A few days later, Yuexia Restaurant.

This restaurant has a very special history in China. According to legend, it was established by the person in charge of the imperial dining room of the last dynasty in ancient times. There are still many recipes from the ancient palace, and the dishes are all gorgeous and complicated. The type, naturally, is also quite expensive.

In addition, this restaurant is also a place for chefs from Huaguo to communicate and learn from each other, especially the chefs from the capital—because the best chefs in Beijing were here during the Republic of China, so chefs from other parts of Huaguo usually came to visit. challenge.

Over time, Yuexia Restaurant has developed an unwritten habit:

A cooking competition is held every month.

It can be that other chefs come to the restaurant to challenge the chef, or two chefs from other places happen to meet in the capital and borrow the venue of the restaurant.

And every month before the start of the competition day, Yuexia Restaurant will send invitation letters to all the famous chefs in the capital. If they are free, they can use the invitation letter to enter the venue to watch and serve as judges.

Ordinary people can also buy tickets through other channels, but this ticket is not very easy to find, and there is no special channel for selling it to the outside world. Except for the residents near the restaurant, others want to get one based on luck.

If the competition is someone unknown, there may be very few diners in the building, but if it is a challenge between the successors of the eight major cuisines of Huaguo, even if the whole building is full, it is commonplace.

The news of the culinary competition that came out this month has caused a lot of discussion in the industry.

……

Two hours before the start of the game, the back kitchen of the restaurant.

A young man who was picking and washing vegetables touched the man squatting in front of the seafood tank next to him with his arm, and said in a low voice:

"Hey, do you know about the game in our building today?"

The man let out an 'hmm' without looking back, his voice was a little lazy, as if he didn't care, he rummaged through the fresh hairy crabs that had just arrived in the box in front of him, and continued:

"You're talking about Brother Chu Sheng's match?"

Before the other person could answer, he touched his chin and said in a low voice:

"I heard that many years ago, Senior Brother Chu Sheng was an apprentice of the God of Cookery. Later, due to some reasons, he severed the master-student relationship. There was no explanation from the God of Cookery. Senior Brother Chu Sheng began to explore the road of food all over the country, and later decided In our restaurant."

After a pause, he seemed to think of something, and said again: "I've never heard of the person who wants to compete with him."

The young man who washed the vegetables vigorously rinsed the large amount of vegetables on hand in the basin, laughed, and said:

"I know this. I heard that she didn't work in our line of work before. She didn't even work as an apprentice. She was just an amateur gourmet internet celebrity. Later, she participated in the 'Kitchen Master Contest' and won the championship, which is a real entry. Later, for unknown reasons, God of Cookery took a fancy to him, and he seemed to be accepted as a closed disciple."

Hearing his words, the apprentice who was observing the freshness of the seafood purchased today looked back at him with a slap:

"It's nothing to win first place in an amateur gimmick competition like the 'God of Cooking Competition'. None of us apprentices in the building can win the championship. It's just that the masters don't want us to show up, and they are more willing to let us work hard to study this. That's all right—isn't the vision of the God of Cookery declining in recent years?"

Monk Zhang Er couldn't figure it out. After thinking for a long time, he could only come to a conclusion:

"Then it looks like Senior Brother Chu Sheng will win today."

Compared to him, the other person paid more attention to gossip news, gathered up the clean vegetables on hand and put them in a clean basin next to him, he snorted and said:

"Don't look down on the 'God of Cooking Competition'. This competition has been held well in recent years, and many dark horses in this industry have emerged. Besides, isn't the most interesting thing about this competition? A new disciple? I think it's quite interesting, and it's not bad to be a lively person——ouch!"

Before he could finish speaking, he was kicked by someone else, and he almost fell directly on the back kitchen floor from the small bench.

Apparently, the guy who counted seafood was a loyal supporter of Yu Chusheng, and he didn't want others to watch his excitement. After kicking people, he walked leisurely to the side with his hands behind his back, and continued to observe his water tank.

Only one sentence remains:

"Just watch the fun, wait, I'll let the senior brother clean you up after the game is over."

"Oh no—don't!"

Although Yu Chusheng was called senior brother by them, he was with the first chef of Yuexia Restaurant, and he himself was one of the chefs of the restaurant. His status was very different from those apprentices who could only do odd jobs. Offended Yu Chusheng, let alone washing the vegetables, I am afraid that he will not have the part to sweep the floor in advance in the future.

……

at the same time.

This matter is also being discussed in the old alleys around Yuexia Restaurant.

Two old people in white vests were playing chess at the stone table in the courtyard, and they were chatting casually with cattail fans.

"Have you heard? Xiaoxie seems to be back."

One of them, with a mole on his face, waved his cattail fan unhurriedly, moved his 'horse', and said to the person opposite.

"Xiao Xie? Which Xiao Xie?" The other person put the palm leaf fan aside, and focused all his attention on the big chessboard in front of him. After thinking for a while, he carefully chose to move the 'cannon' behind a pawn.

"Hey, God of Cookery, Xie You! Did you forget? There is a cooking competition between her two apprentices in the restaurant next door today. My son gave me a ticket yesterday. I'll take a look at it later." The man waving the cattail fan saw him After moving the chess pieces, he released his 'rook' without even thinking about it.

When the old man on the opposite side heard the name, he suddenly remembered, he forgot to move on, he just raised his head and asked:

"True or not? Oh, then I have to take a look. I still remember the scenery when she won the title of 'God of Cookery'. Then she disappeared for no reason. Now she is back? Tsk, I remember that year at Yuexia Restaurant After the meal I ate, I feel that the other meals I ate in the rest of my life were all tasteless."

He was talking about when Xie Tiao returned to China after participating in the World Food Competition, and was hired by Yuexia Restaurant for a month, where he was the honorary chef.

After hearing what he said, the other person did not continue to leave, and echoed:

"Isn't it? I'm also thinking about this meal. If her new apprentice doesn't win this time, I heard that Chu Sheng will challenge her next time."

"Oh, then I'll wait for Chu Sheng to show off. I have tasted his craft a while ago, and I can only say that 'a famous teacher produces a good apprentice'. It's a bit like Xiaoxie back then."

……

When the surrounding streets and alleys were full of discussions, Cheng Youyou, Xie Yi and Ying walked into the main entrance of Yuexia Restaurant, and after the receptionist verified their identities, she noticed that her master was being scrutinized secretly I took a few glances.

The layout style of this restaurant is very classical. When you walk in, you think you have traveled back to ancient times. The whole building is still made of wood. In the lobby, you can see square pear wood tables and long wooden chairs. , there are four or five floors upstairs, all of which are wrap-around buildings, and you can see what happened in the middle of the downstairs at a glance from anywhere.

At the moment, there are two simple cooking tables in the middle of the first floor, which were prepared after closing last night.

After Xie Tiao walked in, he looked around, with a touch of nostalgia in his eyes—even though she hadn't been here for a long time, the furnishings here were still the same as when she left.

The world is always like this, things are right and people are wrong, even the tables and chairs are old and refuse to change, only people's hearts become faster.

When such a thought flashed through her mind, Ying came up beside her and asked her in a low voice:

"I feel that Yoyo is very nervous, how about I take part in the competition for her?"

When he asked this question, Ying's eyes shone with excitement.

Obviously, she is a typical crazy person. The more people watching the game, the more she can play at her own level. She belongs to the type with a strong ability to withstand pressure.

Xie Tiao was reminded by her to look at Cheng Youyou. The girl with turquoise hair tied her curly hair into a ponytail today, looking much crisper and fresher, revealing a snow-white neck that is as delicate and tender as the skin on her face.

Sensing Master's gaze, Cheng Youyou stopped looking at the surrounding environment, and turned to look at Xie Tiao with a puzzled look:

"?"

Xie Tiao habitually raised his hand to rub her head, but when he raised his hand halfway, he remembered that her hairstyle today was no longer loose, so he had to put it on her shoulder, and patted it encouragingly.

Then he quietly turned his eyes to look at the nonsense American next to him.

Ying nonchalantly showed her a row of white teeth.

Not long after, Yu Chusheng who heard the news came down from upstairs and met the three of them, but his gaze only met Xie Tiao's.

His hairstyle is still unruly, with one half long in the middle, but the other half is cut very short, leaving only short stubble to form a pattern, and the rest is light blue.

It's just that he is wearing a white chef's uniform.

He put one hand in his pocket, glanced across Cheng Youyou and Ying, and then said to Xie Tiao:

"Take a step to talk?"

Xie Tie originally had no intention of talking to him, but seeing his persistent gaze, he could only raise his chin and signaled him to lead the way.

Only Ying, who was left in place, leaned towards Cheng Youyou's direction. Seeing the backs of the two leaving, she touched her chin and said with great interest:

"Don't you think there's something weird between the two of them?"

Cheng Youyou only took a glance and then looked away, without too much curiosity in her eyes, she just responded casually:

"Well, maybe."

Instead of being curious about the relationship between Yu Chusheng and Xie Tiao, she is more concerned about the upcoming match.

……

an hour later.

The culinary competition at Yuexia Restaurant officially started, and the upstairs wooden railing was full of spectators, all of whom looked curiously at the two chefs in the center downstairs.

The competition is still divided into three rounds, with a hostess wearing a cheongsam in the center, who is responsible for counting the time and counting the votes.

In addition to the onlookers, the main scoring judges are the four chefs of Yuexia Restaurant, plus Xie Yi and Ying.

After all, one Michelin star is still a very high honor, which represents a kind of strength judged by Western peers, so Ying also received an invitation from Yuexia Restaurant to be a judge.

She herself has no psychological burden at all, although not long ago, one of the two in front of her was her opponent, and she had already defeated her.

The content of the competition was informed by the host on the spot, and then Yu Chusheng and Cheng Youyou had two hours to prepare the content of the first course. During this period, they could tell the staff next to the restaurant what ingredients they needed, and the restaurant side supply.

Interestingly, although there is no need for a restaurant fee to borrow this place as a venue, but——

The party that loses the game needs to pay off all the food materials used by itself and the opponent after the game is over.

The host holding a small microphone looked at the card randomly drawn by the judges in his hand, raised his eyebrows and said:

"Our chefs in Huaguo can not only make countless combinations of dishes, but also create and match staple foods in a variety of ways, so the theme of the first round of competition is——"

Her voice paused, and then said two words:

"Braised rice."

After her words fell, Cheng Youyou frowned, and began to think about this aspect. The first thing that came to mind was:

Stewed rice originated in Shaocheng.

This is one of the most common dishes in Yu Chusheng's hometown.

Although many office workers are too busy after returning home and find it troublesome to cook, they will put all the ingredients into the rice cooker and make simple stewed rice, but the most authentic way of making this rice is actually to use a casserole.

The principle is similar to seafood porridge, because the casserole can make the taste of rice the most fragrant.

So in Shaocheng, stewed rice is also called claypot rice.

Although she knew that the content of the first round was what the other party was good at, Cheng Youyou quickly figured out what she wanted to do. She decided to try a new method and boldly challenge the traditional Shaocheng skills.

Xie Tiao randomly picked a seat on the side of the jury table and sat next to a recent chef. He had only heard of her name, but had never met her in person, so his attention was not far away. In the culinary competition, it was placed on Xie Tiao's side.

After looking at her several times in a row, the middle-aged man looked away. Although he was very curious about how Yu Chusheng was kicked out from Xie Yi's door, it was obviously not suitable for him to ask her out of the blue because of his relationship with the God of Cookery next to him. Such a problem.

So he turned his head, glanced at the beautiful girl over there who was blanching fresh pork ribs, and then at Yu Chusheng who was chopping up sausage and bacon. After roughly knowing what the two of them were going to do, he raised his hand to beckon Recruit the service staff who prepares the ingredients next to him, and ask him to hand over the list of things that both parties need to prepare.

Half a minute later, he raised his eyebrows, looked at the list in his hand, and let out a soft "huh".

The chefs of the other Yuexia Restaurant next to him looked over curiously until he handed over the list.

Then, everyone showed a little surprised expression.

Finally, the list was sent back to Xie Yu and Ying. Xie Yu looked at the three words 'rice cooker' written on Cheng Youyou's side, and couldn't help but smile. The lines of the black eyes were slightly bent. The tear mole on the tail made her temperament a little more charming.

Ying stayed in Huaguo for a month, and her vocabulary of Chinese characters increased a lot, especially the nouns of spices and tools in the industry. Now she saw that Cheng Youyou planned to use the modern cooking method of electric rice cooker The tools were used as kitchen utensils for competition, he raised his eyebrows, and whistled happily.

Hearing her whistle, Xie Tiao put his hands resting on the table with his elbows resting on his chin, turned his head to look at Ying, and said with a smile:

"Now I suspect that you have led my apprentice to the ground."

In the last competition with Ying, Cheng Youyou's performance was still biased towards the more orthodox Huaguo cooking skills, but now he was facing the powerful Yu Chusheng, especially when he encountered the cooking content that Yu Chusheng was good at, he was actually courageous It's so big that you can use a rice cooker to match someone else's casserole. Isn't it broken by Ying?

Facing Xie Tiao's accusation, Ying made an exaggerated expression and pointed at herself:

"I?"

Are you kidding me? Normally, if she tries to get close to the marshmallow, she will be alerted to dodge it. Apart from ordinary cooking exchanges, the two of them have nothing to do with each other. As for the damage?

Where did she get this opportunity?

Although Ying felt that she was indeed not a good person, she still felt a little wronged when she accepted this unwarranted scapegoat.

……

Cheng Youyou didn't know that Ying Pingbai carried a pot for her at the judge's seat. She was picking up the pork ribs that had been blanched just now, putting them in a large transparent bowl, and pouring a little starch into it, as well as raw I waited for the seasoning, thought about it, and added an egg yolk to it.

After stirring evenly, she put the bowl of spare ribs aside, ready to continue after it was marinated.

At the same time, Yu Chusheng next to him cut the shiitake mushrooms into slices and put them on the small plate next to him. After that, he scooped up a few small bowls of rice, washed them, and put them in the casserole.

Authentic stewed rice with preserved meat needs to be cooked with a raw fire, and then heated with a strong fire, so that the preserved meat can penetrate into the rice, so that the flavors of the sausage and rice can be fully integrated, and it tastes a unique fragrance.

While looking after the heat of the casserole, Yu Chusheng fiddled with the plate.

Compared with him, Cheng Youyou was much more relaxed. After setting the time for the rice cooker, she concentrated on studying the arrangement. Compared with the busy Yu Chusheng, she seemed much more relaxed.

Seeing this scene, Xie Tie narrowed his eyes a little, then stared at the rice cooker and thought:

After this competition is over and I go back, I will also study how to cook food with a rice cooker.

After an hour and a half.

The finished products of the two have been cooked.

Cheng Youyou opened the lid of the rice cooker, and a cloud of fragrant water mist came out of it. She held the spoon of the rice cooker in her hand, and added fermented soy sauce, and only spread it on the layer of white rice that had been covered by the rice cooker. Stir the well-cooked and fragrant pork ribs and the rice underneath.

The sauce dark juice of the pork ribs is mixed into the cooked rice that absorbs enough water, and the grains are clearly separated. After a while, the rice is also stained with the sauce-colored juice, and the medium-sized pork ribs are mixed in it. , After being scooped up with a spoon, the ribs with rice grains are very attractive.

Cheng Youyou washed a handful of scallions, chopped the green part very finely, and after scooping up the pork ribs and putting them on a plate, he sprinkled some chopped scallions on top.

The lush greenery becomes the highlight of this stewed rice.

On another counter next to her.

Yu Chusheng's casserole clay pot rice has also been freshly baked, because the casserole allows the smell of the cured meat on the top to seep into the bottom, so his rice doesn't need to be stirred very much. The effect is amazing.

The obliquely sliced ​​sausages are red and white and circled around the edges, like flower petals blooming openly. In the middle, the fat meat that has almost been boiled is crystal clear, and the lean meat is firm. The bacon is spread again, carefully It can be seen that the size of each piece seems to be cut fairly evenly, as if the knife is made by a rigorous machine.

In the center are a few slices of mushrooms, surrounded by green beans in the center.

After the casserole was uncovered, the aroma wafted to the judges' seats, and the scene inside the casserole was even more mouth watering.

It can be said to be truly delicious in color and fragrance.

Cheng Youyou and Yu Chusheng are so close, just by smelling the smell inside, you can tell that the other party has mastered the cooking of the casserole with perfect skill, and even the fragrance that comes out is perfectly blended together.

She felt very admired in her heart.

……

A ceremonial lady in a cheongsam came up and divided the works they had prepared into six portions for the judges, and then did not keep the rest. Instead, they divided the excess into more small white bowls for the judges. While serving the judges, the food was also distributed to several spectators on each floor.

This is to prevent some judges from being biased in scoring, so when the contestants have objections, the votes of the audience can be used to make another round of statistics.

The spectators who enter the arena will receive a number plate in their hands. When the contestants start each round, a large screen will be set up on each floor, with a scrolling lottery on it. After the number stops, it will show that this round can Those who taste the food will pick six more people every time.

Moreover, the selected numbers will not appear in the future, which can ensure the fairness of the game and give the spectators a real treat.

Not long after, Cheng Youyou and Yu Chusheng's stewed rice were presented to the judges' table.

This time Xie Yi chose to taste Cheng Youyou's first.

Although when Cheng Youyou put the ingredients and set the time of the rice cooker, she already had a rough guess about the taste of the finished product, but now in order to verify her idea, she decided to have a taste.

In the sauce-soaked rice on the spoon, there is a pork rib with half cartilage wrapped in it. The bright color of the finely chopped green onion and the dark color of the ribs form a sharp contrast. capital to seduce people.

She loosened the pork rib stewed rice into her mouth, with a little bit of oil on her lips.

The salty taste spreads on the tip of the tongue. The fragrant pork ribs and the soft rice form a soft and hard taste. The fragrance of the rice is mixed with the taste of the pork ribs. It was effortless to bite.

The mouth is full of meaty aroma.

Especially when chewing that piece of cartilage, it is easy to crush, and there is a slight "creak" sound between the teeth. Xie Yi happily swallowed the pork rib stewed rice.

It can be said that if this stewed rice dish appears on the family dining table, it will definitely make people eat three bowls in a row, until the rice cooker is emptied, and there is not a single grain of rice left.

Still... so good at home cooking, there is a sense of happiness in the world, as if after eating this, even the world-weary people can't help thinking about this world again, just because of the warmth in the stomach.

Ying next to her chose the same choice as her, and without thinking about it, decided to try Cheng Youyou's first.

After stuffing a spoonful of pork rib rice into her mouth, she said 'uh', looked at the rice cooker on Cheng Youyou's cooking table, tilted her head, swallowed the mouthful, and asked Xie Yi:

"Do you want to consider buying a rice cooker like that when you go back?"

She's not the only one who has developed an interest in rice cookers.

The second floor of the restaurant.

One of the diners who won the food surprise stuffed the pork ribs rice into his mouth reluctantly. He didn't understand how this kind of pork ribs stewed rice, which he could easily make, could be used as the content of the Chefs' Showdown in the restaurant under the moon, if it wasn't for The competition is fair, the diner has to taste both delicacies, just from his personal point of view, he must only want to eat the cured meat rice, and give up the pork ribs stewed rice.

As for the deliciousness of the stewed rice, he decided to attribute it to the fact that he was too hungry.

After scooping up a piece of pork ribs and putting them on the spoon, and digging some rice to serve as companions, he moved his cheeks, and then, the chewing movement involuntarily paused——

In the next second, he used the exact opposite of the previous fast movement, moving his cheeks as fast as a squirrel gnawed on a pine nut, and unexpectedly let out an 'Aw! '

This is because I ate too fast and bit my tongue.

After he swallowed the mouthful, he scooped up the rest with a large spoon without hesitation, stuffed it into his mouth, and while eating, he was full of emotion in his heart:

Is this too delicious? !

As expected of a meal made by a great chef, it's so delicious!Even the ribs stewed rice tastes like a fairy delicacy!Just beat him up completely, okay?

The diner who live-streamed the slapping process in his heart reluctantly put down the empty bowl with not a grain of rice left, looked down at the rice cooker downstairs that was empty, and took out his phone to take a picture after a while That picture was posted on Weibo:

"Today, I came to Yuexia Restaurant to watch the cooking competition between two chefs. One of the big chefs actually used this rice cooker to cook pork ribs stewed rice that was so delicious that I cried. I decided that even if my cooking skills are not good , at least I have to have the same equipment as the boss, and I will win the world with the pork ribs stewed rice cooked by it in the future!"

There are also two pictures on Weibo, which include the pink rice cooker and Cheng Youyou's back.

When he put away his mobile phone, he didn't know that this wave of his operation would be popularly searched by the people, so that the merchant of the rice cooker found that the sales of the same model had increased sharply today, causing the sales staff to see It's hard to understand when it comes to statistics.

Of course, that's all for later.

While the game is still going on.

Xie Tiao glanced at Ying, but didn't say anything, but picked up another bowl of Yu Chusheng's preserved meat rice and began to taste it.

The aroma from the pot before was still in her memory, and she couldn't help but sigh in her heart:

After so many years, this person's cooking skills are still improving.

Even better than before.

She scooped out a piece of sausage, a piece of bacon, some beans and rice with a spoon, and brought them to her mouth.

If the rice stewed in a rice cooker is fragrant and soft, then the rice cooked in a casserole is hard and full of grains. The rice stewed in a rice cooker is slightly round, while the rice cooked in a casserole is thin and long.

Cantonese-style sausage with a touch of sweetness is very good with rice alone, and it is even more brilliant when paired with this stewed rice.

The bacon is half fat and thin, and the fat part has been stewed crystal clear, with a thin layer of oil shining, and it looks like it can be melted directly in the mouth after biting.

The shiitake mushrooms slightly enhance the freshness of these cured meats, and the beans also enrich the layering of taste.

Different from Cheng Youyou's rice and ingredients, which are soft and cooked together, Yu Chusheng's stewed rice is like his own, showing layers of texture with different hardness. Let's not talk about how it will taste for people from other places. It is the most authentic claypot rice that Shaocheng people will like.

When the teeth are chewing, the salty bacon, light sweet sausage, as well as the shiitake mushrooms and beans that I think of, instantly bring people to the season of winter and early spring in Shaocheng.

After a rain, the fungi in the woods absorbed enough water and grew extremely fast. The mushroom pickers wearing straw hats found the small mushrooms that almost blended with the color of the trunks from the roots of the trees, filling half a bag. After finishing the basket, he returned home contentedly holding the basket.

I took a piece of bacon from the room that was prepared before the winter, cut off a section of sausage, walked into the kitchen, and this very special delicacy was born in a short time.

Xie Tiao ate his rice thoughtfully, and scraped the side of the bowl with a spoon, seeing the hard rice hovering on the edge of sticking to his teeth, he suddenly smiled.

Ying next to him ate the preserved meat rice, frowning while chewing.

Suddenly, he realized how embarrassed the judges were when he and Cheng Youyou were competing.

The cooking of these two people has different effects by using different tools. It can be said that they have brought out the characteristics of the two to the fullest, and they are comparable.

Even if she doesn't like rice very much, she can taste the different flavors of the two rice recipes and combinations in this stewed rice. It can be said that she has a little understanding of the rice cooking methods in Huaguo, but let her choose One of the more outstanding ones--

Ying frowned in confusion.

After thinking for a long time, she decided to use the thinking of Americans to judge which side to vote for.

……

At the same time as Cheng Youyou was playing.

Luo Zijin is in Xincheng Entertainment's manager's office, chatting with Zhou Muqing about the suspense drama that will be accepted next year:

"day and night"

She was sitting on the sofa flipping through the script, thinking about the audition by herself. While trying to figure out the role, she was also thinking about how Su Mo and Zhou Han would interpret the role.

How can I make the role more special?

Zhou Muqing, who was sitting behind the office chair, suddenly received a call. She slid the answer button, put the phone to her ear, and did not rush to speak first.

Within half a minute, Zhou Muqing's unexpected voice sounded: "What? Is the news confirmed?"

She didn't know what was said there, she glanced at the desktop, but couldn't find the earphone, so she could only hold it between her shoulders, tilt her head sideways, and quickly typed on the keyboard with both hands.

Then, looking at the message displayed in the dialog box on the computer screen, she had a slight smile in her eyes, and said to the person on the other end of the phone:

"Thank you, I'll invite you to dinner another day."

Luo Zijin was not attracted by her chat content, and took a pen to circle the lines of the script. Still looking for feelings, she heard Zhou Muqing say something here:

"Zhou Han gave up this role."

Luo Zijin raised his head in an instant, blinked his eyes, and asked calmly, "Why?"

Zhou Muqing shrugged her shoulders, with a slight smile in her voice:

"Because a director in Hollywood asked her to be one of the protagonists of a new play, and the schedule coincided with "Day and Night", so she gave up the show."

Luo Zijin: "..."

For some reason, she was not happy at all when she heard the news.

It seems that when I was studying, I finally met a person whose strength could compete with me for the top prize in the province. As a result, I was studying hard here, and there was a message over there:

Sorry, I walk you through.

Thinking about it, you are still a little angry? ? ?

Luo Zijin thought about his psychology and felt that he was a little lost at the moment.

But it doesn't matter, the remaining Su Mo is also a strong enemy.

Although the quality of the TV dramas that Su Mo received in recent years varies from good to bad, but the basics are there after all. Phoenix in distress is also Phoenix.

She did not intend to take this opponent lightly.

Luo Zijin nodded to Zhou Muqing, and quickly recovered his mood. There was no trace of happiness on his face because his rival had withdrawn from the competition, and he continued to look down at the script.

But God seems to be against her--

Because Zhou Muqing answered another call.

"Huh? Really?"

When hearing Zhou Muqing's doubts, Luo Zijin couldn't help raising his head, and said in his heart:

Why, has Su Mo been invited to Hollywood? ? ?

A few minutes later, Zhou Muqing hung up the phone, met her gaze, cleared her throat and said:

"I heard that besides this "Day and Night", Su Mo also took on another film in the second half of the year. She felt that the leading role of the heroine was too much, and it collided with the filming schedule of another film, so she decided to compete for the second female lead. Number."

Luo Zijin: "..."

Luo Zijin: "...???"

What is it called?Subdue the enemy without fighting?

Why can't she be happy at all?

Although according to Zhou Muqing's plan, if she can't compete for the female number one at that time, she can still consider being the female number two, because the role of the female second in the early stage is not less than that of the female first, and she may discuss with the director as appropriate. The script of the double heroine is not bad.

However, now that the opportunity was suddenly presented to her in vain, Zhou Muqing was sincerely happy for her.

This role is stable.

Only Luo Zijin tapped his chin with his fingertips thoughtfully, and said softly: "So, Xu Qing and I are the only ones left in this role?"

Reminded by her like this, Zhou Muqing also remembered Xu Qing who stood up at the Academy Awards.

She couldn't help but said: "Xu Qing's acting skills are not bad, although she lost to you when she won the award before, but there are still things to be noted."

Luo Zijin let out an expressionless 'oh', and said lightly:

"Her level ends here."

Zhou Muqing: "...Hey, can you be more humble?"

Luo Zijin shook his head, thinking of something, and said with a smile in his eyes: "I heard from Xiaolu that she hugged Boss Yitian's thigh recently?"

Zhou Muqing nodded, suddenly thought of something, and put away the smile on her face.

If there were Su Mo and Zhou Han playing this role before, and if they could still compete for acting skills, then only Luo Zijin and Xu Qing, who got married at the Academy Awards, are left with this role...

Or do you rely on your acting skills?

She was keenly aware of the signs before the storm, and when she called the PR department, she said to Luo Zijin:

"Recently, you and her have rarely seen each other."

Luo Zijin replied without thinking, "No."

Cheng Youyou ended another match today, regardless of winning or losing, this was the longest time the two of them had been together years ago, Luo Zijin couldn't bear not to meet Cheng Youyou.

After Zhou Muqing spoke a few words to the manager of the PR department, she nodded kindly to Luo Zijin, and said:

"Then I told your brother?"

Luo Zijin: "..."

She didn't expect that the agent could have such unconventional cheating methods. After taking a deep breath, Luo Xueba started a way of bargaining that she had never done before:

"Just this time."

Zhou Muqing wasn't fooled at all: "Three months at a time? I'll only give you a week."

Luo Zijin's expression didn't change for a moment after being exposed by her, and he continued, "One month."

Zhou Muqing: "Five days, if you talk too much, I'll go upstairs now."
