"Thank you for agreeing so readily, but..." Chen Chen twitched his nose and said with certainty: "Your porridge is mushy."
"Ah, it's true! Oh, that's not right." Li Zhien panicked at first, and then became very worried. He almost found the reason, "I was just making crispy rice porridge, it's normal!"
"Okay, let me go and have a look." Chen Chen stood up with a smile, "Let me see if I can save it. If I can't save it, I'll eat takeout today. Do you have any objections?”
“Of course I have objections.” Li Zhien said dissatisfied: “I just wanted to make some at home today because I ate too much takeout. How can you let me eat takeout? !”
“Okay, I’ll make some for you.” Chen Chen turned off the fire and turned to the refrigerator, “I’ll see what ingredients you have, as long as it’s not too much. At least you can have enough to eat.”
"You."
But the look in the refrigerator left Chen Chen speechless.
Except for a few boxes of side dishes that looked like they were prepared by my mother and delivered to me, the refrigerator space was almost entirely occupied by drinking water, and the remaining unoccupied space was filled with various nutrients. drug.
"I'm going out to buy groceries. You wait at home to open the door for me." Chen Chen decided to go out to buy groceries. Before going out, he simply said: "Didn't I bring chocolate cake? You can eat it first." Two mouthfuls. Don’t eat too much. If you eat too much, you will be unable to eat and may get a toothache. ”
"Let's go out together, we can chat on the way." Li Zhien rushed to the door and changed his shoes, "For example, I really want to know why you are thinking about holding a concert. Although I I didn’t ask, but that doesn’t mean I’m not curious at all.”
...
"I don't have any ideas. It's just that the C department wants to produce a TV series by itself and lacks start-up funds. I'll hold a few concerts to grab some money from others."
Exit with Li Zhien. Floor, Chen Chen told her the reason for holding a concert.
“Short of money?” Li Zhien couldn’t believe it. “With something as profitable as Paopao, you are still short of money?” Other projects have been eaten up, and naturally there is not much left for the TV series, which seems a bit insufficient. "Chen Chen explained: "As for me, as the boss of the C department and the only person who can make money, I naturally have to shoulder the responsibility at this time. The responsibility comes to solve the financial problem.”
"Can't you attract investment?" Li Zhien still didn't believe it. "It's impossible. You are Chen Chen, who has a reputation and status but has never accepted any advertisements. Your commercial value is huge, so it's impossible for no one to invest."
"I have two considerations." Chen Chen asked Li Zhien to hold the basket and pick out the vegetables and stuff in it. "First, I think the script I selected is very good and I don't want to give the benefits to others. Second, C’s first TV series must be completely self-produced You have to produce it yourself.”
“After all, this is the first time to produce a TV series. The C department has to submit an excellent answer so that the seniors in the industry who also produce TV series will not dare to look down upon it, so it has to endure no matter how hard it is. Come down.”
“Face, integrity, whatever you want to say, the first step in the TV drama business must be to walk independently!”
Every time Chen Chen said something, he put an ingredient in the basket. In the end, Li Zhien couldn't hold it anymore.
"Give it to me, there are enough ingredients."
Chen Chen took the basket from her hand.
"I think there are too many ingredients, and I can't finish this meal." Li Zhien rubbed his arms and relaxed, "Also, you look a bit handsome when you stand up to the company on one shoulder."
Chen Chen didn't talk much about whether he was handsome or not. He just answered a casual sentence and went to the cashier to pay.
“You can save it for next time if you can’t finish it. Some dishes taste better after being reheated twice than freshly cooked. Do you understand the charm of Chinese food?”
"Let's go back."...
"It seems that I really bought too much."
Looking at the table full of dishes, Chen Chen felt that it was a bit exaggerated. He scratched his head and admitted his mistake.
"It doesn't matter, I don't have to run variety shows or anything like that, so I have some free time before my return and can eat slowly." Li Zhien was quite happy, "Not everyone can eat you, Chen Chen. You don’t cook much at home now, do you? I think you’re a little unskilled in the food cooked by the big boss.”
"After I opened my own company, I went to the company every day, and the Chinese restaurant owner almost completely mastered the taste. Of course, I had fewer opportunities to do it myself." Chen Chen tasted what he made, "But it's not bad, and his craftsmanship has not deteriorated. "
"Would you like some wine?" Li Zhien suggested: "I have a lot of good wine at home, which is given by others."
"I think it is okay, after all. We still have some things to talk about." Chen Chen happily accepted.
"Anything else?" Li Zhien was surprised, "Isn't it just a concert?"
"Of course not, if there was only a concert, I wouldn't bring a cake." Chen Chen chose Let’s put it out there first, “Go ahead and get the bar, it’s something worth celebrating.”
"Okay."
Li Zhien was looking forward to it and moved a lot faster.
The red wine was poured and the cake was cut. Although it did not match the large table dishes, the atmosphere was still in place.
"Here, here you go." Chen Chen took out the script from the cake bag and handed it over, "The script I found for you is very, very suitable for you. It is also the first TV series of our C department."
“C Is this the first drama project to be written by me?" Li Zhien felt so stressed that the cake in his hand no longer tasted good. "I'm so nervous. If I don't perform well, will I be the sinner of the C department? ?”
"That's definitely not the case. If you have a problem, you can only say that I don't know people well. Nothing else counts." Chen Chen said calmly: "C Department is my C Department. Whether a project succeeds or fails, I am The person who takes the main responsibility.”
“Oh, a man who dares to take responsibility, that’s good.”
Li Zhien praised him a little absent-mindedly, because his attention was attracted by the script in his hand.
Chen Chen didn't pay attention to her, knowing that this person wouldn't be able to come back to his senses for a while, so he simply concentrated on cooking. It would be a pity that the taste would be worse when it cools down later.
The script for "My Uncle" was given to Li Zhien. Her performance in the play is definitely outstanding and impressive.
Therefore, Chen Chen naturally gained information about this drama from his contact with Li Zhien, and he paid special attention to it when the C headquarters was looking for scripts.
Huangtian paid off his hard work. After casting a net over a large area to accurately catch fish, Department C finally intercepted the script before tvn took action.
The overall evaluation of the TV series "My Uncle" is very high, so high that Chen Chen can safely consider it as the first project on the TV series track of the C department.
In addition, Chen Chen also had a reason to put it first. It would take a lot of time to adapt the comic that bought the copyright into a script, and the C department couldn't wait.
