My idol is myself

Chapter 104 Counting Horses

After dinner, Xu Wenruo had to admit that Chef Huang did have a good idea. The hairy crabs Xu Wenruo brought were made into several dishes by him.

A few steamed crabs, a few spicy ones, and even a simple dish of drunk crabs cooked with marinated ingredients, served with fresh seasonal vegetables and stir-fried side dishes, will whet your appetite as soon as they are laid out.

"My dishes today are so rich."

Teacher Yu Wei looked at the dazzling array of dishes, and couldn't help but praise Huang Xiaochu, which made Huang Xiaochu smile after a long day of busy work, and even the exhaustion after working for a long time was gone.

"Crab feast, I have to thank Xiao Xu for bringing the crabs, otherwise we would all have to eat vegetables today."

"Mr. Huang, I should thank you. We were all idle just now. You have been busy in the kitchen for a long time before we can have this meal."

Xu Wenruo also has a way of bragging about business. Although he likes to socialize, it doesn't mean that Xu Wenruo doesn't understand the world. Most of the time, Xu Wenruo is still very sensible.

"And me, I have been busy in the kitchen for a long time, why no one thanked me."

Huang Bo, who had just brought a plate of dishes from the kitchen, was immediately dissatisfied when he heard everyone praised Huang Bo, so he took two quick steps, put the plate in his hand on the table, turned his head, and waited for everyone to praise him, with a very serious expression. Proud.

"Boge has worked hard too, sit down and rest for a while, you've been busy all afternoon."

It was still Teacher He who came out to smooth things over. He pulled Huang Bo to sit down, and everyone gathered around the table in the yard to start today's feast.

"To celebrate our meeting today, let's do one."

Teacher He picked up the drink cup in front of him, and he started to host the work very naturally, which should be an occupational disease.

"Today we can be regarded as a gathering of old and new generations of actors and singers. Peng Peng and Zifeng are actors of the new generation, Xiao Xu and Concubine Ying are singers of the new generation, and the four of us are old fritters in the circle."

"Indeed, in a blink of an eye, we have also become characters of the older generation. Time flies too fast."

Hearing Huang Shi and Huang Bo's emotions, He Ling and Yu Wei also felt empathy, especially when they saw the energetic young people sitting beside them, this feeling became even stronger.

"Now these few, Xiao Xu's development is the best."

"By the way, Xiao Xu, you said you were going to make a movie, but I haven't asked which company you signed with."

Several people chatted and chatted, and the topic came to Xu Wenruo again. In fact, they were also very curious about Xu Wenruo. After all, the speed at which Xu Wenruo rose to fame was really incredible.

Huang Bo thought that Xu Wenruo signed a contract with a big company, and only a big company has the ability to make a newcomer popular in a short period of time, and only a big company has the ability to let Xu Wenruo film alone.

"I didn't sign a company. I don't like constraints, so I set up a studio by myself, which happens to be able to do something I'm interested in."

"You own a studio?"

Huang Bo's face was very surprised, because this is not in line with the growth experience of most celebrity artists. Normally newcomers will sign with a big company, because big companies have a lot of resources and can make people famous until they have a certain status. After that, he will build his own star studio.

Of course, these people may also want to avoid taxes, but Xu Wenruo, who is a good student and a law-abiding citizen, will definitely not do this kind of thing. He will actively declare and pay taxes for every income he earns.

"I opened a studio with a friend, and she is considered an insider with certain resources."

"Then the filming you just said is completely invested in and filmed by yourself?"

"That's right, so I want to make more money recently."

As soon as Xu Wenruo finished speaking, the others were stunned. They thought that what Xu Wenruo said about filming was that the company supported him and granted him a large amount of resources to let him do whatever he wanted. Moreover, with the speed at which Xu Wenruo became famous, many people also thought that Xu Wenruo has a deep background behind him.

Unexpectedly, Xu Wenruo actually chose to use all of Stud's own wealth to make a film. Even the craziest gambler would not dare to make such a decision lightly, because if he fails, he will lose his fortune.

"Did you ever think you would fail?"

Teacher He asked gently from the side. He was quite rational. Although he didn't mean to persuade Xu Wenruo, he directly pointed out that Xu Wenruo's decision had a high probability of failure.

"I still have a little confidence in the script, and I don't think it will fail."

Xu Wenruo was full of confidence in this, but Teacher He continued to ask, his voice was very gentle, as persuasive as an old senior.

"Then you also have to think about the situation after failure, but you have to be mentally prepared."

"Actually, I also thought that if this drama fails, I will lose a lot of money, and maybe I can only write a few more songs to support myself."

Xu Wenruo spread his hands, and his words were very free and easy. The unrestrained temperament that other people can't learn at all, this makes other people's perception of Xu Wenruo changed a lot,
At least after seeing his free and easy, at most they think that if Xu Wen is talented, he will be more self-willed, rather than the kind of madness who is overwhelmed.

"It's good to be young. You can do whatever you want. We've already passed this age."

Looking at the high-spirited Xu Wenruo, Huang Shi suddenly said with emotion, compared with Xu Wenruo, he really felt old, not because of his old body, but because of his mentality. heart.

"That's right, youth is the greatest capital, Xiao Xu, since you want to do it, then go ahead and do it. It's always good to try a little more. Even if you fail, it's a life experience. With your talent, you don't have to worry about nothing." eat."

Feeling that Xu Wenruo's will is very firm, Mr. He patted Xu Wenruo's shoulder, and his words were a little more encouraging. After all, it was like what Xu Wenruo said, even if the filming failed, it would have no effect on him. The big deal is to write a few more songs Songs can also feed themselves.

"There is really no comparison between people. When you were your age, I still ate my last meal. At that time, I traveled all over the country with the performance team, let alone directing and filming. I didn't even think about it." Dare to think."

Huang Bo thought of his previous experience, looked at Xu Wenruo with envious eyes, envied him for being young, and envied him for being able to do whatever he liked.

When several high-status seniors are so envious of Xu Wenruo, let alone young people of his age, Wang Yingfei is very concerned about Xu Wenruo himself, but she did not expect him to be able to take such a big step. If Xu Wenruo's play can be successful, he can really be regarded as a step up to the sky.

As for Peng Peng and sister Zifeng, needless to say, their admiration for Xu Wenruo is almost beyond words, especially Peng Peng, who is the same age as Xu Wenruo, and he is still honing his acting skills, while Xu Wenruo has already begun to prepare himself. It's a play, the gap is not a star and a half.

When they didn't see Xu Wenruo before, they were all Xu Wenruo's fans and liked to listen to Xu Wenruo's new songs, but now after getting in touch with Xu Wenruo's, they realized a completely different Xu Wenruo.

Talented but bold and self-willed, this is the Xu Wenruo in their eyes. The real Xu Wenruo is more attractive than the one on the screen. That unique temperament is hard to describe in words, but when they really saw him, they felt Unforgettable at first sight.

After the meal, Teacher He began to lead everyone to an active atmosphere. He carefully prepared a few small games to play with everyone, especially the young children.

"I'm here to play a little game with you. This game is called counting horses. Watch it carefully. Listen carefully."

Seeing everyone waiting and watching, Mr. He smiled mysteriously and said something first.

"Let's count horses together."

Then he clapped his palms eight times in a row. Amidst the crisp applause, everyone looked confused. They didn't understand what it meant, and Xu Wenruo certainly knew what this game was about.

"Well, how many horses were there just now? Does anyone know?"

Teacher He looked around for a week, but only Xu Wenruo smiled, Zifeng and Wang Yingfei both looked confused, and only Peng Peng's tone was very firm.

"Eight horses! Isn't that right! Teacher He, I must be right."

"wrong."

Peng Peng's confident smile froze on his face, and Teacher He smiled mischievously. Especially looking at Peng Peng's silly look, he couldn't help laughing.

"Xiao Xu, you know that, right?"

Seeing the smile on Xu Wenruo's face, Teacher He immediately called his name, and Xu Wenruo's tone was also very confident.

"Seven horses."

"That's right, seven horses."

"How is it possible? I'm sure I heard it right. It must be eight horses. Mr. He, please do it again."

After hearing that Xu Wenruo answered correctly, Peng Peng did not admit defeat. He did not believe that he had heard it wrong, so he proposed to do it again. Teacher He and Xu Wenruo looked at each other and smiled, saying everything without saying anything.

"Okay, you have to listen carefully."

"Count the horses."

Teacher He clapped quickly with both hands and clapped ten times in a row, which made Peng Peng anxious. He listened carefully and complained to Teacher He at the same time.

"Teacher He, please slow down, it's too fast, I can't hear clearly."

After Mr. He finished applauding, Peng Peng looked frustrated, because he hadn't heard exactly how many times Mr. He clapped.

"It's over, Mr. He, you were too fast just now, I didn't count clearly at all."

"What about my sister and Concubine Ying, do you two know?"

"I didn't hear clearly either."

"do not know."

Hearing Teacher He's question, Zifeng and Wang Yingfei shook their heads. The two of them didn't understand the situation, and they also looked confused.

In fact, Huang Bo and Yu Wei, who were observing from the sidelines, did not understand what the game meant, but they chose to continue to observe and did not participate in it because of the stability of middle-aged people.

"Then Xiao Xu will tell them the answer."

"Two horses in total."

"How is it possible? It is absolutely impossible to be two horses"

Peng Peng directly stood up and questioned. Although he hadn't counted them clearly just now, it was definitely not two horses. Peng Peng looked at Mr. He and then at Xu Wenruo, and even wondered if the two were in collusion.

"It's just two horses. Do you want to guess again, Peng Peng?"

Hearing Teacher He's answer, Peng Peng was a little confused, and he couldn't react for a while.

"Well then, let me show you a demonstration, a simple one."

Seeing Peng Peng who was lost in thought, Xu Wenruo decided to stand up and help him. He came to ask questions and asked Peng Peng to answer.

"Listen carefully, how many horses are there?"

"Count the horses."

Xu Wenruo clapped his palms briefly, and then looked at Peng Peng full of hope. Seeing that Xu Wenruo's question was so simple, Peng Peng showed a confident smile again, and he answered Xu Wenruo decisively!
"A horse! It must be a horse this time!"

Xu Wenruo shook his head and denied Peng Peng's answer. Teacher He laughed and gave an answer that made Peng Peng doubt his life.

"Three horses."

"That's right, Peng Peng, you need to change your way of thinking."

Seeing the completely different answers from Xu Wenruo and Mr. He, Peng Peng really began to doubt his life, and Huang Bo on the side seemed to see some clues, so he also chose to join the game.

"I seem to have guessed the answer. Let me try it. Let me verify my guess. Come and answer the question."

"How many horses?"

Huang Bo also clapped his hands, then looked expectantly at Mr. He and Xu Wenruo, as if waiting for their answer.

"a horse?"

Peng Peng's voice was very unconfident. He carefully glanced at Mr. He and then at Xu Wenruo, for fear that an answer different from his own would come out of their mouths.

"Three horses."

"Still Three Horses"

In the end, the reality was still cruel. Teacher He and Xu Wenruo said the answer almost in unison, which showed that the two of them were not in collusion at all.

"Looks like I've found the right answer."

A satisfied smile appeared on Huang Bo's face. He proudly clapped hands with Mr. He and Xu Wenruo to celebrate, leaving only Peng Peng messed up in the wind. Now he wondered if he was really stupid.

"Can you please tell me what is going on?"

"I can't say, this game won't be fun after finishing it."

Teacher He smiled and rejected Peng Peng's question. This game is to use information gaps to tease novices who don't understand the rules of the game. If you put it bluntly, it's really not fun.

"Then come again, I must find the correct answer."

Hearing Teacher He's answer, Peng Peng mustered up his courage again. He did not admit defeat and chose to continue the challenge, but it seemed to be of no use. Should he guess wrong or guess wrong, Peng Peng still did not find the key to the game.

Teacher He continued to tease Peng Peng for a while, and then everyone began to rest. Only Peng Peng couldn't sleep because he couldn't find the answer to the question at all.

Xu Wenruo and the others slept in the Datong shop, and Peng Peng was the only one who was beside Xu Wenruo. As a result, after the lights were turned off, Peng Peng was still asking Xu Wenruo what the reason for the previous game was. Xu Wenruo shook his head speechlessly. So Xu Wenruo pulled up Peng Peng's quilt, covered his head, and let him go to bed quickly.
