Acting school started in 1998

Chapter 295 Little Chef

Of course Zeng Jia would not argue with Li Tang about this, it was very simple, the house was rented, the contract was signed, it was pointless to argue any longer.Her purpose has always been very clear, and she never advocates doing meaningless things.

In addition, the studio rented three offices near the East Third Ring Road as a transition.These years, many state-owned units are in a downturn. They have no business, and their employees are laid off. They can only live by renting out their properties.The rent is not expensive, and it will take half a year to move to the renovated 798.

"The day before yesterday, I met Director Zhang Baibai. The preparations went smoothly. In fact, they had already started the preparations before. The scenes at the Beijing Film Studio were all set up."

"Have you found an actor yet?"

"His tone should be more or less the same. However, brother, I suggest you better ask about this matter. We should also have the right to speak in this regard." Zeng Jia said.

Li Tang pondered for a while, and said, "Then make an appointment to meet up."

Zhang Baibai had told him before, the first female number Xu Jinglei, the second female number was an actress appointed by the biggest investor, and Gao Yuanyuan was also assigned the role of a photo studio clerk. There are not many scenes.

In addition, Zhang Baibai wants Zhang Yang to play the role of the second male tiger. As for the role of the third male chef, including supporting roles such as a saleswoman in the subway and a deaf-mute boy, it has not yet been decided.

Originally, he didn't want to intervene. After all, there are not many roles. At the same time, he also expressed respect to Zhang Baibai and the others. But after hearing what Zeng Jia said, he thought it would be better to ask. Anyway, he is also an investor, so it can be regarded as conveying an attitude. .

"it is good!"

After the work report was over, Zeng Jia got up and said goodbye: "Brother, I'll go first, you can rest. Oh, by the way, I will use the car for these two days first, if you want to use the car, call me anytime."

Before that, she always drove the blue bird that Naian eliminated. Now that she got out of the company, the car would naturally have to be returned.During this period of time, she was extremely busy, and it was really inconvenient to run around without a car.

"It's okay, you can use the car, I don't need it."

After seeing off Zeng Jia, Li Tang took a shower first, and put the things in the suitcase back.Then I sat in the main room, made myself a cup of tea, and watched the script of "Subway to Spring" while drinking tea.

Maybe it's a little tired, and my mind will not be able to calm down for a while.After a while, he remembered what Zeng Jia said just before leaving, and considered whether to add another car to the studio, but then he thought that he didn't use that commercial car much, so it would be a waste to buy another car.

When it was over, he remembered the last time Zhang Baibai talked to him about the actor candidate. He had no objection to anything else, but he still had doubts about Zhang Yang, the second male lead.

Mainly because of his flamboyant appearance...

Tsk, to put it bluntly, he is too simple and honest, but to put it bluntly, he is a bit rustic. In addition, his kappa head, which has remained unchanged for thousands of years, seems to be relatively trendy with coffee shop owners and playboys who are especially good at flirting with girls. The image doesn't quite match.

In addition, he is a director after all, even if he has a certain acting foundation, it is still unknown whether he can play this role well.

If he had to choose, the first person that would come to mind would be Xu Guangtou.On the one hand, the bald man is indeed very trendy, on the other hand, his ability to flirt is his strong point.

He felt that it was necessary to discuss it next time he met Zhang Baibai.

Just as he was wandering around the world with the script in his hand, the mobile phone on the coffee table rang.

I took it over and saw that it was Gao Yuanyuan's call.

It is said that since the phone numbers were exchanged with each other last time, this girl will make a call or send a text message from time to time.Basically just say hello, chat about what's going on.

This girl...how should I say it?

The appearance is absolutely superb, especially the smile is very fresh and sweet, which makes people feel instantly refreshed when they see it.Otherwise, he wouldn't have her face popping up in his mind the last time he was talking to Xiaopang.

If you want to talk about the shortcomings, it may be that she is not white enough, and she is a little short, which is incomparable to Xiaopang, and maybe a little shorter than her ex-girlfriend, and her net height is estimated to be 162 or 163.

The persistent ringtone of the mobile phone pulled him back from the state of trance, and he quickly connected.

"Brother Li, you've arrived in the capital!"

"Yeah, just arrived. How did you know?"

He was inevitably a little surprised, because he had never disclosed the itinerary to her before.

"Hee hee, I overheard your manager calling Director Zhang just now."

"Oh, you're at Director Zhang's place."

Maybe even Li Tang himself didn't realize that his tone suddenly became cold.

Reminiscent of Gao Yuanyuan's meeting through director Xiao Teng, and the last party organized by director Xiao Teng, a beautiful girl in her early twenties always mixed with a group of old men in their 40s and [-]s.Of course, it is understandable to be in this circle for work, but he always feels a little uncomfortable, as if a juicy cabbage has been kicked by a pig.

Gao Yuanyuan on the other end of the phone keenly heard the change in Li Tang's tone, and couldn't help but smile slyly. Originally, when she heard that Li Tang had come to the capital, she wanted to make a phone call to say hello.

But at this time she changed her mind, and explained first: "Yes, I happened to be chatting with Director Zhang about the script."

Immediately afterwards, he said again: "Brother Li, are you free? Let me treat you to dinner and cleanse you up!"

"Thank you, I don't need to eat."

Li Tang subconsciously refused, mainly because he was afraid of being photographed by reporters.There is a saying, if you can't eat mutton, you will be in trouble!

"Are you free?"

Gao Yuanyuan's voice was obviously disappointed.

Li Tang was soft-hearted, especially towards pretty girls, he hesitated for a moment, and then said, "It's not inconvenient, but I'm a little tired, and I don't want to move."

Gao Yuanyuan was silent on the phone for a while, then hesitated: "Then... If it's convenient for you, can I come over to buy vegetables?"

After saying this, her little face flushed red.

"Uh……"

Are girls so courageous these days?Or are you planning to give yourself the unspoken rules?

Yuanshen's skin is not bad, but he is not narcissistic enough to be loved by everyone.

"well……"

He originally wanted to say that it was inconvenient, after all, Xiaopang had been living here before, and his neighbors would notice him when he went in and out, and a little girl came to the door unexpectedly, so it was inevitable that there would be gossip.

But when the words came to his lips, he said like a ghost: "You know how to cook?"

Gao Yuanyuan on the other end of the phone was a little apprehensive at first, but when she heard his words, she was excited and said, "Of course! Let me tell you, my cooking is delicious!"

As he said that, before Li Tang could speak, he hurriedly said, "Brother Li, where do you live? I'll go shopping now."

Now that the story has come to this point, Li Tang has no way to refuse, so he has to report the address of the small courtyard.

Sure enough, Gao Yuanyuan said in surprise: "Wow, the artillery bureau! I'm pretty close from here, and I'll be here soon."

I have to say that Paoju Hutong is as famous in Beijing as Tilan Bridge in Shanghai.

After hanging up the phone, Li Tang sat there in a daze for a while, feeling that he was a little hasty, but why was he still a little excited?

After drinking two sips of tea, he got up and changed into a suit of clothes.You can't receive guests in pajamas when you come to your door.

Although the electric heater at home is not as hot as the central heating in the public house, it can still maintain around [-] degrees indoors.He changed into a pair of khaki corduroy slacks, a white shirt and a camel cashmere vest with a sweetheart collar. It looked a little old-fashioned, but it was refreshing and elegant.

If it is paired with a pair of gold-rimmed glasses and a more evil smile on the face, it will somewhat look like a gentle scum.

Less than half an hour later, the doorbell rang.

Li Tang quickly ran out to open the door, and saw Gao Yuanyuan standing at the door wearing a long black down jacket and a pair of furry ear protectors. The moment he saw him, his eyes lit up, and at the same time, he showed his signature fresh and lovely smile , greeted Li Tang: "Brother Li, happy new year!"

If it weren't for the heavy plastic bags in both hands, she would definitely be waving and tilting her head at the same time, this picture would be even more beautiful.

"Happy New Year! Please come in!"

As Li Tang spoke, he reached out to take the bag in her hand.

At the same time, he took a peek outside: "How did you come here, so fast?"

"The one who took a taxi has already left."

Gao Yuanyuan followed Li Tang into the door, walked around the screen wall, and the entire small courtyard appeared in front of her.

"Wow, this small courtyard is so beautiful!"

"So-so, there is a place to stay in the capital. Come, come, come in, it's cold outside!"

At the end of February and the beginning of March, the capital is still very cold, after all, the first month has not yet come out.

Walking into the kitchen in the East Wing, Li Tang put the two bags on the cooking table, and made tea again.

"Brother Li, don't worry, I'm going to cook."

Gao Yuanyuan entered the room, took off the cute pair of plush earmuffs, and took off the long down jacket on her body, revealing the milky white turtleneck sweater inside. While rolling up her sleeves, she looked at the east wing with two connected kitchens and restaurants.

Although Zeng Jia had arranged for someone to clean it before Li Tang came, but the kitchen utensils had been used.

"Wow, Brother Li, you still cook by yourself!"

"How can I cook? It's all... er, what, Yuanyuan, let me help!"

Li Tang blurted out instinctively, but found something wrong halfway through the sentence, so he quickly changed the subject.

Although the scandal between Li Tang and Fan Xiaopang has been publicly denied many times, it is not a secret in the circle, and Gao Yuanyuan has naturally heard of it.

Her expression froze slightly, but she adjusted immediately, and said hastily: "Brother Li doesn't need it, I can do it alone."

"Is there really no need for help?"

In fact, Li Tang also has self-knowledge. Although he owns a restaurant, he can make do with instant noodles or fried rice with eggs. He really doesn’t know how to do other things.

"It's really not necessary! You go back to the room and rest, and I'll call you when it's done." Gao Yuanyuan almost pushed Li Tang out.

"Okay, that's hard work!"

Li Tang had no choice but to go out, and before leaving, he did not forget to take Gao Yuanyuan's long down jacket with him to avoid the smell of oily smoke.

After Li Tang went out, Gao Yuanyuan leaned against the door and looked inside the room again, and sighed deeply.After a pause of about five or six seconds, he regained his composure and began to get busy.

Soak small rapeseed in a basin of water; peeled bamboo shoots and cut them into small cubes; cut chicken thighs into small pieces and marinate with onion, ginger, cooking wine, oyster sauce, light soy sauce, and pepper, then sizing with starch; fresh The shrimps are also prepared in the same way; there is still a fish to clean up...

When Gao Yuanyuan started to work in the kitchen, Li Tang took her down jacket and went back to the main room. When he hung the clothes on the hanger, he smelled a deep orchid fragrance, a bit like the smell of Dior's true self series.

It stands to reason that this kind of deep orchid-flavored perfume generally symbolizes the noble, elegant and conservative kind.But this little girl who took the initiative to come to the door...

Li Tang couldn't judge for a while, after all, all the previous things were his conjectures, and he didn't know the real Gao Yuanyuan.

Although separated by two doors and half a yard, Li Tang, who was sitting in the main room, could still hear the sound of the spatula, and the image of a little cook wearing a handkerchief and an apron appeared in his mind from time to time.

I can't read the script anymore, so let's just listen to the music.When his ex-girlfriend was auditioning last time, he heard Yao Li's song "Love You Can't Get" and felt very touched. He went to the audio-visual store to find a copy of the out-of-print collection of Shanghai old songs "Yao Li" released by EMI China a few years ago. In the album, in addition to the song "Love I Can't Get", there are also classic songs such as "Rose Rose I Love You" and "Spring Breeze Kiss My Face".

Amid the old Shanghai classic tunes and Yao Li's touching singing, Li Tang, who was leaning on the sofa, closed his eyes and fell asleep without paying attention.He didn't wake up until he felt that someone was approaching him and heard the voice of "Brother Li". When he opened his eyes, he saw that fresh and lovely smiling face.

"Brother Li, the meal is ready and ready to eat."

"Oh, I'm sorry I fell asleep."

He deliberately turned his head to the side, his mouth would be dry and smelly when he fell asleep, so as not to suffocate others.He quickly took another sip of the cold tea to moisten his throat and neutralize his breath at the same time.

The CD in the turntable is still playing on loop.

Gao Yuanyuan listened carefully, and asked, "It's really nice, is it Zhou Xuan?"

When most people hear the songs of old Shanghai, the first thing most people think of is Zhou Xuan, the former singer of Shanghai Bund.

"It's Yao Li."

"Yao Li?"

This name is a bit unfamiliar to Gao Yuanyuan.

"Yes, one of the seven queens of Shanghai before liberation. Strictly speaking, she can be regarded as half of Zhou Xuan's student."

"Is that so-"

Although Gao Yuanyuan also likes music, she prefers more unrestrained rock music.I just asked casually just now, and then immediately urged: "Hurry up and eat, and try my craft."

"it is good!"

On the phone before, Gao Yuanyuan boasted that the cooking was delicious, and Li Tang was also looking forward to it.

He has eaten meals made by his ex-girlfriend, Jiang Qinqin, and Xiaopang. Generally speaking, his ex-girlfriend's cooking skills are the best, followed by Jiang Qinqin. As for the beginner Fan Xiaopang, he can only say that he is reluctant can enter.

At this time, he realized that night had already fallen, and he turned on the light on the veranda before walking out of the main house. The orange light added a bit of warmth to the small courtyard on this cold winter night.
