Chapter 116 This last name is a bit familiar
After half a month of overseas business trip, the plane landed, stepping on the territory of China...
Zhu Jin seemed to have come to life. !
“I really have a Chinese stomach, and I can’t wait to go eat a lot!”
“This is not what a great gourmet should say.”
< br>
A slightly hoarse voice sounded with a chuckle.
A woman in her 60s, wearing a tall windbreaker and sunglasses, but still looking dashing, walked out from behind the chubby Zhu Jin.
She is Zhong Yu, China's top documentary director. "A Bite of China" directed by her once became popular all over the world, making her a hot figure in both the food and documentary circles.
Zhong Yu and Zhu Jin have been friends for many years. When they were preparing for "A Bite of China", many people were not optimistic about the project. It was Zhu Jin who personally invested in it and served as the general consultant of the program that made this project possible. The documentary was saved from childbirth.
So, this time Zhong Yu wanted to prepare a new documentary, and without even thinking about it, he roped in Zhu Jin again.
Zhu Jin handed the coffee to the assistant next to him and couldn't help but complain:
"I shouldn't have believed your lies and boarded your pirate ship! As a result, I still can't get away now, and again You dragged me to Rouen! The day you called me, I planned to go to a restaurant with egg fried rice. It was definitely the best fried rice..."
"I saw you were in Rouen. I had a great time eating it too.”
Zhong Yu glanced over lightly.
Zhu Jin paused and could only answer:
"It is Bresse chicken after all."
Rouen is a small town located in the Bresse region in the east of country F. It is located on the banks of the Seille River. It is an ancient rural town with only 6,000 residents.
What makes it famous all over the world is Bresse chicken, known as the national chicken of country F and the top poultry ingredient. The annual output is only 1.5 million, which is the same as the world's most produced feed chicken every year. In comparison, it is just a drop in the ocean.
Although with Zhu Jin's worth and status, even the best and most precious ingredients are within reach.
If he says he wants to eat today, someone will fly it to him from abroad tomorrow.
But eating like this and eating locally are always two different feelings.
Good food is not rootless, the soil growing behind it is the best condiment for tasting good food.
For example, on this business trip, Zhong Yu was going to Rouen to shoot footage of Bresse chicken. The locals warmly received them and roasted Bresse chicken in their own kiln for them to eat.
Unlike those high-end French restaurants that cook Bresse chicken with various expensive seasonings, the locals just add some hay and a little salt, and top the chicken with roasted chicken at any time. dripping juices and grease.
The Bresse chicken baked in this way is extremely delicious and full of country flavor.
That chicken breast is even tender enough to be scooped out with a spoon!
Even now, Zhu Jin still thinks about it.
Zhong Yu glanced at him sideways:
“Don’t you mean Hua Guo’s stomach?”
“That’s different.”
Zhu Jin argued in a low voice.
Turning around, he thought of the golden egg fried rice again:
“By the way, I’m going to eat the egg fried rice that I missed earlier tonight, will you go?”
Finally, I felt strange:
"Is it the egg fried rice you mentioned so many times? How delicious is it to make you miss it for so long?"
"Didn't I say it? Immortal product! Immortal product in egg fried rice!"
Zhu Jin raised his chin and finally told Zhong Yu the story of the twists and turns.
After listening, Zhong Yu said:
“Oh, it turns out I stole your niece’s food.”
“Nonsense!”
Zhu Jin jumped in anger.
At this time they had already walked out of the airport and were standing next to the car parked on the roadside.
Zhong Yu raised his hand and glanced at his watch, and smiled softly:
"Unfortunately, I have a meeting in the afternoon, and it will definitely be too late to rush over after it is over. You go explore the way first, if you feel Not bad, I’ll add it to our shooting list later.”
“This is good!”
Zhu Jin felt annoyed again, he didn't think of it at the first time!
He said goodbye to Zhong Yu and got into his car. He still did not go home. Instead, he went to a familiar old shop and had a bowl of authentic Yanjing noodles with mixed sauce.
The so-called dumplings on the horse and noodles on the horse, this can be regarded as a success for oneself after returning to China.
After that, he went to see his old friends again, drank tea, and ate freshly baked chestnut cake...
After spending the whole afternoon, he finally waited until evening, and Zhu Jin came non-stop. Go to the night market. "Huh? Where's the egg fried rice? Where's my golden egg fried rice?"
Zhu Jin was very disappointed after searching the night market but could not find the golden egg fried rice stall that Feifei described.
But he is a top gourmand. He can ride dozens of hours in a car and go over mountains and mountains to a remote mountain village just for a bite of fresh fish.
So, such a small thing cannot knock him down.
Zhu Jin decisively called his old friend and asked about it.
My old friend was very surprised:
"...So you weren't affected by the public opinion on the Internet? My Feifei was quite disappointed before and asked me several times why Uncle Zhu didn't eat egg fried rice."
Zhu Jin was even more confused:
"What public opinion?"
My old friend roughly told the story.
Zhu Jin almost couldn't believe his ears:
"Variety show? Are you kidding me?"
No matter how much he couldn't believe it, Zhu Jin was planning to come to a new store with his old friend Address, decided to come to the door in person to find out!
On the other side, Zhong Yu came to the TV station and almost without stopping, called all team members for a meeting.
This was a talent selection meeting that was originally scheduled to be held half a month ago, but it has been postponed until now due to a temporary business trip.
Zhong Yu looked at the manuscript in front of him and frowned:
"I gave you half a month more time, but this is what you handed in?"
The tone was not that great. severe.
But it made everyone in the room so trembling that they dared not speak.
Zhou Ling, who was sitting at the bottom, spoke in silence:
"Director Zhong, I have a topic here, which was filmed before..."
Zhong Yu captured the key words:
"It was filmed before? Is it done?"
Zhou Ling agreed, and then explained the whole story clearly.
After listening to this, Zhong Yu looked a little strange.
Why is it egg fried rice again?
First it was Zhu Jin, then Zhou Ling.
Did she get into trouble with egg fried rice today?
Zhong Yu: "Take it and take a look."
As Zhou Ling thought, Zhong Yu did not blame her for not following the rules, but planned to take a look first before talking.
Since it depends on the content, Zhou Ling is more confident.
She quickly ordered her subordinates to play the video.
Zhong Yu watched the whole process carefully.
Even colleagues in the group who had always been at odds with Zhou Ling did not dare to say anything at this juncture.
The original material was a bit long, and after Zhou Ling’s rough cut, only a short 20 minutes were left.
The best 20 minutes.
The video ends and the conference room lights turn on.
Zhong Yu pondered for a moment, but then asked a somewhat unexpected question:
"The chef in this video is named Nan?"
"Yes! Her name is Nan Branch! ”
"Nanzhi..."
This last name is a bit familiar.
Zhong Yu thought.
