The Northern Stories of Chef Lao Tan

Chapter 405 Talking About Wine

Being an actor is a profession, not a superior existence.

Playing a hero, playing a hero, not being a hero.

A scene on the stage is ugly at the end of life.

The audience burst into bitter tears, and the stage performed to the fullest.

When the audience is watching a play, if you are serious, they will be happy or sad as you like; if you are fake, they will be scolded.

If it was still the era when wages were paid and there were political censorships, no matter what kind of beautiful and handsome guy you are, if you can't do it, you can't do it, just go home and stay.But now—hey, all the beauties are the same as long as they miss the top, and the handsome guys are as fake as possible, losing their masculinity.

But this is all temporary and untenable, because as long as it is a profession, it has its conduct and morality, as well as the norms and standards that it must abide by.Like a cook, he has his own ethics and morals, as well as guidelines and standards.

As the common people say, if the world is too chaotic, the world will not be chaotic, and when the world is stable, everything will return to its place.

Liu Guoqing is a big sponsor. Although he treats guests, he is still taken special care of by the No. [-] and No. [-] females.

Lao Tan and the male protagonist have a good conversation because they can drink. Drinkers are like this. After three glasses of wine, they become friends, regardless of you and me.The assistant director can also have a few drinks and join in.

Qiao Gang is steady, the director is steady, the two can chat together.

Qiao Shan sat with the female number one and chatted about women.

The hateful thing is that next to the two of them is the traffic niche, and the niche is shocked by Qiao Shan's beauty and temperament.I'm used to seeing people who are whiny, but how can I see such a noble person, this is a woman.So be diligent.However, Qiao Shan didn't look at him at all. He might as well look at the waiter in the store.

Old Tan thought while drinking, this is an acting dinner, no different from ordinary people, even worse than ordinary people.Fortunately, there is someone in the Northeast who can drink, otherwise the meal would be boring.

"Master Tan, I've always wanted to act as a cook, the kind who came out of the countryside to work, it's really simple and honest, a little cook has a big life." said the actor.

"Then I have to thank you for the cook." Old Tan said.

"Chef's works are quite a lot, in my opinion—not very good, they are all emotional dramas, nothing—human fireworks." The assistant director drank a little high, and his tongue began to curl.

Lao Tan said: "I don't like to watch TV dramas, but I strongly support you if you want to make a show about the cook. The store kitchen can be used casually, and the employees will perform as a group for free."

"Thanks in advance." The assistant director said, then picked up the cup and took a sip with Lao Tan.

"What are you talking about, it's so lively?" The little student who was trafficked by Qiao Shan ran into a wall, and asked in embarrassment alone, looking for something to say.

The male lead was obviously at odds with him, teasing him and saying: "Talking about men, drinking, can you drink?"

"Why can't you drink it?" Xiaosheng held up the wine glass to prove that it contained red rose wine.

"Red wine?" the hero asked.

"What red wine? I'm also white wine, soaked in roses." Xiaosheng said.

At this time, the female number one interjected, "This wine infused with flowers is really good, delicate and soft, slightly sweet in the mouth, and not over the top."

Qiao Shan said: "You don't know my sister, this wine is good for health. The snow lotus wine I brought you specially, our girls drink it to dry out the lungs and nourish the skin."

She's pretty good at advertising.

So the topic turned to wine.

Qiao Shan went on to say: "Our Ah Qiao has two major characteristics. The first is dumplings, which are freshly wrapped and cooked with the original taste; Dare to say, the whole city of Suzhou can drink authentic pure grain small roast, but my family is the only one.”

"You also make this health wine yourself?" the director asked.

Qiao Shan smiled, pointed at Lao Tan and said, "Yes, he is the master bartender."

Everyone looked at Lao Tan.

Qiao just glared at his sister angrily, which meant that you were the only one who talked too much.Qiao Shan raised her eyebrows back at her elder brother, which means I am willing.

"I didn't expect Tan Dong to be able to mix drinks." The director said.

"I learned it from others when I was a child. Is it okay to drink?" Old Tan asked.

"Okay, okay." The director said two good things in a row. He drank health wine that nourishes yin and strengthens yang.

The second female lead who drank rose wine with Liu Xiaosheng said inappropriately and hypocritically: "I think Lafite is better."

To say that this little actor can't speak, in other people's restaurants, eating other people's dumplings and drinking other people's wine, and saying that other people's wine is delicious, isn't that a slap in the face.

It is estimated that she only regarded Qiao Shan as a restaurant owner, or a small dumpling restaurant, so she didn't pay attention.I forgot that Qiao Shan is Qiao Gang's younger sister, but the crew was filming in his old house.

Qiao Shan's face immediately pulled down, showing signs of going crazy.

Old Tan coughed, smiled, and said before Qiao Shan got angry: "Lafite is indeed good, the world's most expensive red wine, a well-known brand, with a long history and excellent brewing, and is deeply loved by the upper class.

Lafite is produced in a Bordeaux winery in France. The most expensive bottle of red wine auctioned in the world is Lafite, worth [-] pounds.Two to three vines are needed to brew a bottle of Lafite, and only [-] pieces can be brewed each year. If there is too much, it cannot be produced, so it is very expensive.

To be honest, I haven’t drank it, I’m a bit regretful,” then joked, “The main reason is that I can’t afford it. "

Everyone was amused by Lao Tan, excluding the female No. [-].

"I like wine, so I know a little bit about wine." Lao Tan raised the wine glass in front of him, stared at the wine in it and said, "Wine, colorless and transparent, looks like water, drinks like fire, can make people drunk , can also make people live a clearer life.

Different people drink the same wine, some say it is good while others say it is bad.The same wine is drunk by the same person with different moods, you can get drunk or wake up, cry or laugh.

Some people don't know the taste of wine after drinking Moutai, and some people enjoy burning knives.

Drinking Lafite is not necessarily expensive for a noble person, drinking San Bai is not necessarily cheap for a lowly person,

The universe is big in the pot, and the sun and moon are long in the cup.Life is only three glasses of wine, so why bother to judge the merits and disadvantages?
It is said that wine can preserve health, it depends on what is brewed and who is drinking it.This is the same as our chefs cooking. The dishes are not distinguished by size, but the raw materials are good or bad, depending on the skill level.Is this the reason? "

"Well said!" The male lead applauded first, then held his glass temperamentally, and said to Lao Tan: "My fellow, no, brother, brother, I would like to offer you a toast."

Everyone else also said yes, especially Qiao Shan, who was as happy as if she had won a battle, stood up holding a cup and said loudly: "I sponsor!"

With her stretching her head, everyone toasted and took a sip.

This can be regarded as a small climax of the wine bureau tonight.

The drinking session continued, changing cups, except for Qiao Gang and his sister, everyone went to Lao Tan for a drink, and Lao Tan drank too much again.

But this time it was better than last time, I didn't vomit, and I was sober.In a very gentlemanly way, he sent the director, assistant director, male and female leading actors, and Liu Guoqing to the car, still talking and laughing happily as if he hadn't drunk.

It was over when I returned to the courtyard, and I fell unconscious on the bed and fell asleep.

Yaru had no choice but to watch on the sofa for another night.
