Chapter 59: Don’t be too shameless

"Well, let's have a piece of golden sand chestnut rice and Australian scallops. Do you want the shrimp?"

Jiang Liu turned to Li Xi and asked, "I can do it." Li Xi tilted his upper body and lowered his head slightly and whispered to Jiang Liu.

Jiang Liu nodded and looked at Li Wei opposite: "Can Li Wei eat it? There are many parasites in shrimps. People with weak stomachs are prone to allergies and diarrhea."

Li Wei glanced at the waiter who was holding back a smile and appeared to be of high quality: "I should be fine."

"I'll have another shrimp, let's go with the Baifu palace fried shrimp, then there'll be papaya and snow clam, foie gras and drumstick mushrooms, fragrant spinach and old meat, and lastly there'll be a soup, the Imperial Yellow Chicken Soup, that's what I'll take."

Jiang Liu returned the menu to the waiter and asked Li Xi and his brother, "You two, see what you want to order."

"There's enough food for three bowls of rice." Li Xi told the waiter.

"Opening a bottle of red wine costs two to three thousand. There are many fakes of expensive wines. How outrageous is it that I haven't finished drinking the 82 Lafite after drinking it for almost 20 years."

Jiang Liu's unrestrained speech made Li Xing even more embarrassed.

Jiang Liu insisted on inviting their siblings to dinner, but she did not refuse. A hot pot meal like last time only cost a few dollars, and Jiang Liu was now a rich man.

With this attitude, she allowed Jiang Liu to lead her to the front of the Bai family compound.

Looking at the hotel's gold-like door, she wanted to flinch on the spot. Such a hotel was not a place where a small broadcaster and host could spend money, not to mention that this was still the capital.

But Jiang Liu was eloquent, so he first said he wanted to come and eat.

When she saw the palace-like private room, she was about to flinch, but he said that if you come, you can take it as it comes. It only costs 300 yuan per guest, and it is a luxury once in a while. It is not a big deal to eat a month's salary of an ordinary worker in one meal.

Until he finished ordering the meal, Li Xin's heart was still beating uneasily.

Before eating, Jiang Liu asked: "Is Li Wei studying at China National Theater or Nortel?"

"The Chinese drama is a bit difficult. I'm preparing to take the Nortel Directing Department exam. Director Jiang can give me some advice." Li Wei looked at Jiang Liu calmly.

He learned about Jiang Liu from his sister Li Xing.

After checking the information about Jiang Liu, he had an indescribable feeling about Jiang Liu. He was not ashamed of Jiang Liu's character, but he also admired his courage.

I'm not ashamed of Jiang Liu's character because the filming of his first film "Hidden Dragon and Crouching Tiger" was so dirty and he was unscrupulous in promoting it.

I admire Jiang Liu's courage because not everyone can succeed under pressure.

Most people will be overwhelmed by external pressure before they succeed.

Needless to say, Jiang Liu's courage and willpower are enough to make a name for himself amidst the criticism from people in the industry.

"I don't have any good advice, just hold on to your sister's thigh firmly. Don't try to prove yourself, don't care about the opinions of outsiders. The actor's rice bowl is not good, and the director's rice bowl is not good. Every famous director It’s built with money and connections.”

"Director Jiang should be an exception, right?"

Jiang Liu smiled and did not speak. Instead, Li Yan scolded his younger brother: "Talk less and eat more."

She started working a few years earlier than Li Wei, and she understands the cruelty of society better and understands where Jiang Liu's desire to climb up by any means comes from.

She dropped out of school as a child to sell clothes and wash dishes.

One time, someone in a restaurant wrongly accused her of stealing something. She refused and got into a fight. She still has a scar on her face where she was beaten.

Later, she forced her parents to go back to school and entered the TV station.

She thought it was going to be smooth sailing, but she was still ostracized and told to wear small shoes.

Sometimes she thought that it would be better to bite the bullet and imitate others to drink or sleep with her, rather than being isolated by so many people.But every time she thought about this matter, she would always say to hold on and just change the environment.

In fact, it is not. The workplace will always be cruel, and society will also be cruel. If you don't fight, you will always crawl under the feet of more people.

Because she couldn't do it herself and understood the truth, she wouldn't despise Jiang Liu.

"Mr. Jiang, your food is ready."

"Hey, okay, let's pour the wine."

The waiter left, Jiang Liu raised his glass and toasted Li Wei, and said to Li Wei, "Take a sip. It seems that we have known each other for exactly a year. Thank you very much for the correction."

"It's also your luck."

Taking a sip of red wine, Li Xing lightly opened her red lips and asked curiously: "By the way, what happened when I was on the phone?"

Jiang Liu said with a gloomy look on his face: "Don't mention it. I'm too lazy to cook and prepare some pork head meat. Who knew that the boss was not a good person and even sold the spoiled food in the store, which almost sent me to the hospital."

Li Xin knew he shouldn't be happy, but what Jiang Liu said was really funny, so he couldn't help but cover his mouth and laugh: "You are too inferior."

"Who says it's not? Come on, eat a piece of papaya. Papaya is highly nutritious."

Jiang Liu gave Li Xin a piece of papaya, and at the same time he also told Li Wei to add more vegetables.

Gently biting down half a piece of papaya, Li Xin asked with concern: "I saw CCTV was showing "Wulin Gaiden". I think I am on the right track. Why are I trying to get the recipe for herbal tea again?"

"The success of "Wulin Gaiden" is the first shot of Yixinshu. However, film and television companies are very risky. Once the policy changes, the funds for several dramas will be gone. I have to find more ways to make money."

These days, companies with a little bit of money are carrying out capital expansion.

Compared with bosses such as Xu Hengda, who is engaged in both real estate and football, Jiang Liu's decision to let Zhou Guoshan enter the beverage market is a piece of cake.

After a while, Zhao Benshan will enter the football market and Huayi will enter the real estate market. Who can explain this.

Compared with these people, Jiangliu is still in the stage of preparing for a rainy day.

Li Xin put down his chopsticks and looked at Jiang Liu hopefully: "Taili spent more than 200 million yuan to purchase the second-round broadcast rights of "Wulin Gaiden" and prepared to compete with "Like Fog, Like Rain and Like Wind" from the next door province, Liaoning Province. "

Jiang Liu was stunned for a moment, then suddenly realized: "I said that Zhao Baogang and I had no grudges in the past and have no grudges recently, but he belittled me and "Wulin Gaiden" in front of the media. It turns out that the two are at odds."

A few days before the filming of "Wulin Gaiden" was completed, Wang Baoqiang returned to Feilong Film and Television Base from Beijing Film Studio and talked about this.

Jiang Liu didn't pay attention at the time. There were many people who looked down on him, and Zhao Baogang was the oldest.

It wasn't until today that he realized that the scolding was not in vain and had the intention to belittle "Wulin Gaiden" and elevate "Like Fog, Like Rain and Like Wind".

This meaning is completely different, and Jiang Liu cannot accept it.

Shakespeare said it well, there are a thousand Hamlets for a thousand readers.

It's normal for any audience who doesn't like Jiang Liu or "Wulin Gaiden" to curse a few words. Jiang Liu never likes to respond. After all, there are no perfect people, perfect movies and TV series, and perfect novels.

But if someone has bad intentions, Jiang Liu cannot agree.

This is for someone who has become fat and still poops and urinates on their heads to disgust others.

When Jiang Liu talked about "Hidden Dragon and Crouching Tiger" to reporters at the Golden Eagle Festival, he also excused himself because he had no money, which is why the filming of "Hidden Dragon and Crouching Tiger" was so poor.

From beginning to end, he never disparaged Ang Lee's "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon."

You can be shameless, but you can't be too shameless!
