Don't Be My Old Man [Entertainment]

Finally there is good news.

Yang Li felt inexplicably at ease when he saw Zheng Wushu's WeChat message to him.

Teacher Zheng said so, it should be true.

Mr. Zhou Long can build a relationship with the producer, so they will not be incapable of fighting.

It was Mr. Zheng who gave the best effort and took care of the most difficult person.

"Okay, you can finally be less nervous." Zhou Cheng looked at Yang Li with a smile and said.

"Brother Zhou, everyone's surname is Zhou, you and Zhou Long are really far behind." Yang Li couldn't help sighing.

"...What you said, our country's deputy secretary is still surnamed Yang, and I haven't seen how powerful you are."

Why bother to hurt each other?

You know, a year ago, the two of them were still poor artists and managers who had to travel around to audition for a living.

Yang Li and Zhou Cheng looked at each other silently, and said nothing more.

Well, let's quietly wait for the good news from Mr. Zhou Long.

Zhou Long went directly to his old friend's house with good wine.

As we all know, Li Suqiu's family is quite powerful in the military and political circles, but in fact, it is not as powerful as others imagined.

Li Suqiu's grandfather, Li Gui, is not too young. He was a soldier and had done a lot of meritorious service. Although he has retired now, he still has some friends.

When Zhou Long was filming a Kung Fu movie, he went to the army for special training for a few days, and the instructor at that time was Li Gui.Li Gui is both Zhou Long's movie fan and his instructor, and the two of them would practice kung fu when they had nothing to do, and gradually became close friends.

Today Zhou Long came by coincidence, just as Li Suqiu was also there.These days, she has been spinning around for many days to prepare for "Special China", and finally took the opportunity to take a day off.

"Look, what I brought you." Zhou Long laughed and raised the wine bottle in his hand, "Drinking alone is no fun, I thought of you."

Li Gui's hair is grizzled, but his face is very rosy, and he looks full of energy. He laughed loudly and said, "What a good day today? My granddaughter brought me back some bottles of good wine that I can't drink elsewhere. How dare you Brought it to me too? Exactly, I want to call you!"

Hearing Li Gui's words, Zhou Long couldn't help but think of Zheng Wushu's reason for coming, and couldn't help laughing.

If he came two steps late, I'm afraid the matter has already been settled. Fortunately, he didn't delay, otherwise he would really be ashamed to meet people.

But having said that, it seems that everyone understands it very well.

Also, if the craftsmen have been doing their duty and don't want to sell themselves, they can only slowly cut off the inheritance.These days, if you want others to hear your voice, you have to stand up first, otherwise no one will humbly ask you what your plans are.

Zhou Long went back and forth several times in his mind, and walked up to Li Gui as if nothing had happened, "That's good, I also want to see how the wine in your hand compares to mine. If you lose, you can compare cry."

"Haha, don't talk too much." Li Gui said triumphantly, "My granddaughter brought me treasures from several senior winemakers of wine industry groups. It's been 20 years at least. If it wasn't for Xiao Qiu is the producer this time, and I still can't get it!"

Now those senior winemakers almost don't make any moves. They are not young anymore. The wine they brewed when they were young just needs to wait for the time to come. Opening a jar from time to time is enough for them to drink.

Li Suqiu also helped his grandfather, "Uncle Long, you will know after you taste it. My grandfather is a good drinker, if this wine is not good, I will not bring it here."

"It seems that the program "Special China" really allowed you to find some powerful people." Zhou Long and Li Suqiu have also known each other for many years, and Li Suqiu also received a lot of help from Zhou Long when he was working hard in the entertainment circle, so You don't need to be so tactful.

"That's right." A trace of pride flashed across Li Suqiu's dignified face, "I look down on the people from the next few countries the most. If there is nothing to do, I will be a master, a master craftsman or something, as if there is no such thing in our country. Last time I I went abroad to shoot with the Prime Minister, and the taste of the state banquet was just the same. Why did I brag that it was made by a top knife master... and the wine, it was just like that when I drank it, but the people from the TV station in that country asked in a weird way How many wine masters can I name? I'm so pissed off!"

The same Asian countries naturally have similarities in cultural inheritance.Their country is rich in land and resources, and there are many inheritances. It's just that they have been working on the economy and people's livelihood these years, and they didn't devote all their energy to managing these cultural inheritances. As a result, they just focused on this point, and Li Suqiu was so angry that he almost wanted to fight with her. They did it.

Competence is better than GDP and high-tech industries.

Oh, after comparing high-tech with country A, environmental protection with country B, and national welfare with country C?In the end, he actually had to compare the cultural inheritance with country D?

What is this, a wheel war?Do not bring such a bar.

Li Suqiu looked dignified and shrewd, but she was still just like her grandfather, with a violent temper. Working in CCTV did not suppress her temper, but she hated the slow temper of CCTV employees.

See what other local stations are doing?How many talents have been poached from CCTV?Don't think that the country can stand upright because it is supported by the country!

"I have been planning to shoot this "Special China" for several years. I have revised the preliminary plan hundreds of times, but the superiors have never approved it. They said that we should first focus on cultural relics and food. I have made great progress in this step. It’s too big, if you want to do everything you want, you may end up with nothing. If it weren’t for the ratings and discussions of the few programs I produced before, the ratings and discussions were beyond expectations, and now [-]% of them would not be approved.” Li Suqiu is also full The bitterness is coming, "Fortunately, I have also trained a lot of professionals in the past few years. I have connections in how to produce and promote this kind of program."

Now that Li Suqiu is well-known, and there are several popular large-scale variety shows as the base, as long as there is a word, there will be an endless stream of people who come to invest, and money will be poured into it like waste paper.

Similarly, these state-owned enterprises and wine industry groups, which had their eyes above the top before, also offered olive branches and offered to show their favor.

In addition to shooting these large-scale enterprises, one-episode documentary also needs to shoot folk craftsmen.These craftsmen are naturally recommended by these companies, because they will all be the future senior winemakers of these groups.

When the filming is finished and the program is formally recorded in the later stage, one or two folk artisans and hosts will also be invited to introduce the wine-making culture to everyone.

What Yang Li and the others want most is naturally the right to be on camera with the hosts.

"Come on, drink the wine brought by my granddaughter first." Li Gui looked at his granddaughter proudly, and gave Zhou Long a showy look.

Zhou Long's sons and daughters can only be said to be mediocre, and there is nothing particularly outstanding, but Li Gui's granddaughter Li Suqiu is a strong woman in her career.When she gets older, the position of head of CCTV can also be contested.

This is the mouthpiece of the country, and its gold content can be seen.

Of course Li Gui should be proud of having such a granddaughter.Those old comrades in the past said that girls should not enter the entertainment industry and look down on them. Now look at the annual output value of the entertainment industry and look at the status spelled out by the daughter on CCTV. I am afraid that it is a bad word. not coming out.

"Okay." Zhou Long agreed.

Li Gui's family is not that particular, and there are no exquisite wine utensils. The only requirement for wine utensils is to be "big".But he is getting old and his family is tight, so they can only give him a job.

There is no way to do this, it is impossible to refuse to accept the old.

What Li Suqiu brought were two jars of good wine, she sat on the side and poured wine for Grandpa and Zhou Long, and introduced the origin of the wine by the way.

"This altar is Xinghua Village." When Li Suqiu said the name, the eyes of Li Gui and Zhou Long lit up.

Fen Liquor in Xinghua Village is famous all over the world.

"This altar of Xinghua village uses the wine koji from drying red hearts, and the well water from Shenjing."

Fenjiu pays attention to the use of koji and water, and the taste of different koji is different.For example, the more well-known wine songs include "hanging red heart", "erdaoba", "burning heart song" and so on.The water used to brew Fenjiu is also natural well water, which is sweet and transparent.

At the beginning of the [-]th century, this Fenjiu had already won various international awards and instantly became famous.Most of today's Fenjiu are named Xinghua Village, but it is just a name, which is different from the genuine "Xinghua Village" brought by Li Suqiu.

The wine that was poured into the bowl was crystal clear and exuded a delicate fragrance, and the hook's alcohol addiction was broken.

Zhou Long and Li Gui didn't bother to listen to Li Suqiu's explanation of the historical stories and culture here, they just drank it.

This altar of Xinghuacun wine lives up to its reputation, it has a soft taste and a sweet aftertaste, it is really wonderful.

"Good!" Zhou Long couldn't help admiring, "It's really good wine."

Even if Zhou Long had already drank wine from Yang Li's family before, he had to say that this altar of Xinghua Village wine was really extraordinary.After all, is it completely different? Yang Li's wine is fruit wine, but this is Fenjiu.

Chunhuaqiuyue, each has its own strengths, how can this be compared?

"Uncle Long, don't rush to boast, there is still a pot of green bamboo leaves here." Li Suqiu said with a smile, "It's not too late to drink another bowl of this."

Zhuyeqing's bowl of wine is well-deserved of its reputation, and Li Gui's whole body glowed with joy after drinking it.

Such a good wine, drinking a jar of wine is one jar less.Now it is because Li Suqiu did this show that I can get it, but it may not be so in the future.

To put it bluntly, this wine is enough to entertain guests at a state banquet, why would it be taken out casually?

"It's really good." Zhou Long sighed, "All the wines I've drank in the past are not as good as the ones I drank these days."

"Haha, didn't you also bring the wine?" Li Gui asked with a smile, "Did you finish my wine and feel that your own wine can't be sold? Don't worry, I will still share this small bottle with you of."

"Suqiu, you didn't drink much when we were drinking just now." Zhou Long didn't answer Li Gui's criticism, but asked Li Suqiu instead.

"Uncle Long, it's not that you don't know. I'm not a good drinker. I have to go to work tomorrow. I'll just smell the wine." Li Suqiu didn't dare to drink like the two of them. Prefer red wine.

"Then you don't have to worry, you can drink the bottle of willow I brought." Zhou Long got the answer he wanted, and then took out the willow.

"What kind of wine is Yangliu? Why haven't I heard of it?" Li Gui frowned.

"In terms of category, it is a kind of monkey wine." Zhou Long said with a smile, "but this wine is brewed by the brewer for his new wife, and the name of this wine is named after their respective surnames. It is a private collection , not for sale, you have naturally never heard of it.”

"Oh?" Li Suqiu sensed something, "Uncle Long can still get such wine?"

"Fruit wine." Li Gui smacked his mouth, somewhat lacking in interest, "I still like spirits."

"It doesn't count, you have a sip first. But I don't have much wine, so you can't take your rice bowl and have a glass."

Li Suqiu smiled and went to get the cup.

When the three cups came to the table, Zhou Long poured one each, "Come and taste mine."

Li Suqiu looked at the wine in the glass, smelled it, and the glutton in his stomach was also aroused.

After one sip, I was really amazed by this wine.

She prefers fruit wine, and she has tasted the well-known monkey wine many times, and it's not like she hasn't drunk excellent wine, but compared with this one, those wines seem to lack something.

If what Zhou Long said just now is true, then it probably lacks the kindness of the brewer for his wife.

This willow wine is all about women's tastes.

Most of the wine, the audience is male, even red wine is no exception.Therefore, relatively speaking, male alcoholics are much higher than females, so most alcohol is more suitable for men's tastes.

But willows are different.

Willow is specially brewed for women.

Drinking it is like drinking the taste of love.

The mouth is slightly sour, the throat is slightly sweet, the aftertaste is endless, the lips and teeth are fragrant, it is obviously full of fruity aroma, but it is impossible to tell what kind of fruit it is.It seems to have everything, and it seems to be nothing.

Hazy, with a vague beauty.

"How is it?" Zhou Long looked at Li Suqiu, "You can drink this wine."

"Uncle Long, give me another drink." Li Suqiu expressed his position with actions.

Li Gui also savored it slowly, "This wine tastes soft and doesn't feel much, but when you taste it carefully, it's like seeing life. Love is like this, and so is life."

It may not be said that this wine is the best in the world, but it has never been seen before, and it has a mysterious color in itself, and the story behind it makes the drinker feel emotional.

"Uncle Long, this wine is not easy to come by, and I don't need to be inferior to the treasures sold by these senior winemakers when I drink it. I'm afraid you brought it to me on purpose." Li Suqiu rubbed the wine glass, and she already understood Zhou Long's wine in her heart. What kind of intentions are there.

"Suqiu, look at this wine, is it eligible for your "Special China"?" Zhou Long asked with a smile.

"Of course I have the qualifications." Li Suqiu said curiously, "I'm just wondering, who can use your relationship to come to me? If you go to those wine industry groups for this kind of wine making ability, I'm afraid they will be famous long ago."

"There's nothing hard to say, they are related to Zheng Wushu." Zhou Long said frankly.

"Zheng Wushu?" Li Suqiu was really shocked at this moment, "But he's a one-drinker!"

Zheng Wushu's drinking in a glass is really no secret among those who are familiar with him.

Zhou Long complained more than once that Zheng Wushu is good at everything, but he can't drink.

Men cannot drink alcohol, which is simply an intolerable defect.

Fortunately, although Zheng Wushu couldn't drink, he seemed to be able to drink, but he was fooled by him.

... There is no one who uses actor-level acting skills in the scene of "I can drink very much".

"He has signed an artist named Yang Li." Zhou Long sold Zheng Wushu out without any hesitation.

"Yang Li's family has been doing this for generations. It's a pity that they have never been famous, so they have been guarding the small wine shop. Yang Li, if he wants to carry forward his father's career, he came to the entertainment industry. But this kid doesn't There will be troubles, and he hasn't mixed up for many years. If Zheng Wushu hadn't signed him, he would still be unknown. However, his family's ability to make wine is really high, and Wushu couldn't bear to waste his talent. So please let me tell you."

Zhou Long said, and added, "If he is not capable, I will not take the job. But you two have tasted the taste of this wine. He is a Maxima, so it depends on whether you are willing to come to be a Is this Bole?"

Li Suqiu didn't rush to answer Zhou Long's words, after all, this is not something she can decide on her own.

In terms of pure ability, the quality of this wine is completely qualified.If nothing happened before, Li Suqiu might have agreed on the spot.

"I just add their family to the filming documentary, I can guarantee it." Li Suqiu thought for a while and replied, "I promise that the film of their family will be very beautiful and cultural, and there will be more narration. In a word, help them gain popularity. If this kind of craftsmanship declines, then the fundamental meaning of my organizing this show will also be lost."

She prepared "Characteristic Huaxia", originally to dig out these nearly extinct crafts, appeal to the public to care about these craftsmen, give them a chance to continue to pass on their crafts, and also create a few master-level craftsmen to let foreign People take a good look at the heritage of their country!

"Is it just filming?" Zhou Long was a little reconciled, "How many minutes can the filming be? 5 minutes, 10 minutes? When you are filming, those famous wine groups will take up more than half, and the rest will have to film the host, Guests, experts, how much time can be allocated?"

"Uncle Long, don't force me." Li Suqiu was also helpless, "You also know that the interest relationship behind this liquor industry group is not so simple, besides, they are desperate to recommend their own brewers It’s on the show. For this, they have to tear it up a few times, and it’s not necessarily who is the last one to tear it up?”

Of course it is necessary to shoot a show, but coming up to talk about wine-making culture with the expert group, and doing a show with the guests, this is not flattering people in the ordinary sense.

Not to mention anything else, how many people became famous in the previous "Hundred Schools Lecture Forum"?This is almost something that can be shown off for a lifetime.

Zhou Long can also understand Li Suqiu's concerns. There is a shot, which is actually a rare opportunity for Yang Li and his family now.

However, it is rare for Wu Shu to ask him to do something, and Zhou Long himself still wants to establish a good relationship with Yang Li's family and get new wine in the future, so he can't just give up.

I can still fight for it.

Zhou Long thought about it, and simply changed the term.

"Suqiu, have you considered the program's ratings and discussion?" Zhou Long asked with a smile.

"There should be no problem with this, my program..."

"Yes, your show is based on the previous shows, and it is broadcast in prime time on CCTV, and it is broadcast on all major network platforms simultaneously. It is difficult to keep the ratings low. But have you ever thought about it? In your "Special China" It contains too many things, too complicated, too esoteric, and many young viewers may find it fresh after watching one or two episodes, but after watching too many, they will no longer dare to be interested.”

For example, audiences who like food will only go to see food, and those who like porcelain will only go to porcelain.

They will skip and watch.

It won't be chasing down from beginning to end.

But in this way, how different is this program from other programs?

"There is no way to do this." Li Suqiu sighed, "Every audience has their own preference, and I can't stop it."

"Surrounded by gourmet food, antiques and porcelain, wine is not well-known in the first place. If it is not salvaged, its single-episode broadcast volume and discussion rate will probably be at the bottom by then." Zhou Long said sincerely, "Except for those like us who like to drink, who else will watch it? Many young audiences hate the wine table culture. It's a good thing not to wear a vest to go online."

"This..." Li Suqiu had to admit that what Zhou Long said was right, wine is indeed at a disadvantage in terms of culture, and there were no similar programs to gain popularity for it before.

"You may not know Yang Li, he is not so famous yet. But besides his status as an artist, he is also the inheritor of wine making. Before, he also told the audience with his own strength that in fact, there are still many people in C University. Brewing engineering is the number one major in the country. In the minds of many viewers, it is actually related to wine culture." Zhou Long said slowly.

Li Suqiu fell into deep thought.

"Think about it, I'm not just speaking for him. If at that time, when the inheritor of winemaking comes on stage, everyone finds out that it's an artist, Yang Li, how much discussion will it cause? If everyone knows, Yang Li How many people will pay attention to the entertainment industry because they want to promote the wine at home?"

"You want to be professional and not to offend others, I understand. However, sometimes for the ratings, for the clicks, for the audience, I think it is necessary to be strong occasionally." Zhou Long clicked to stop, "Suqiu, you might as well think about it again!"
