Huayu Chef

After Zhang Jinxuan finished announcing the second sponsorship of GG, he asked his senior from the directing department, "Senior, did we get this scene right?"

"With enough material and plenty of laughs, it would be unfair if it didn't go well."

"OK." Zhang Jinxuan gestured and instructed Jingjing, "Jingjing, go to the ticket office and buy seven tickets. Since we're already here, let's go inside and take a look."

"Okay."

Yao Yao walked up to Zhang Jinxuan and exclaimed, "Jinxuan, I've never seen you film 'Wild Kitchen' before. Watching it today has been an eye-opener. You're so talented! You can come up with jokes so easily. I don't know how your brain works."

"Don't worry, I'm not a freak. My mom carried me for ten months and gave birth to me. I ate whatever everyone else ate, and I grew up naturally."

Yao Yao chuckled, then said excitedly, "The opening of this episode is so imaginative! Dilraba's nicknames 'Buffy Cat' and 'Buffy's Guardian' are sure to be hits."

Zhang Jinxuan glanced at the soft and cute Dilraba and said something good for her: "The popularity of a persona or label won't last long. If the studio wants to build a more stable image for Dilraba, it's best to increase investment in publicity and film and television resources. Dilraba's thinking is quite active; she performed very well just now."

"Thank you, Brother Xuan." Dilraba showed a grateful expression.

"Don't feel pressured, don't be nervous, and don't be afraid of saying the wrong thing. Treat this show like a trip, a fun trip. The most important thing is to have fun. Have a blast, I'll cover for you. If I can't cover for you, there's always post-production."

A senior from the directing department asked quietly, "Post-production isn't magic; what if it can't handle the damage?"

"Refund."

Haha~~

Zhang Jinxuan, in a dramatic mood, stroked his beard and said in a affected tone, "Waaaaah, the gates of Kaifeng Prefecture are open! Guards, quickly follow me into the prefecture for the court session!"

Reba pouted and smiled, then twirled her sword and clasped her hands in a fist salute, saying, "Yes, sir."

He didn't even get three seconds of looking cool before he held the sword upside down and it clattered to the ground.

Luckily it was a plastic sword, so it didn't break and I didn't have to pay for it.

"Ha ha."

"Dilraba, you're quite funny too."

The group walked into Kaifeng Prefecture through the main gate, chatting and laughing, and visited the Yimen (ceremonial gate), the Jieshi (admonition stone), the Zuo and You Halls (left and right halls), the Zuo and You Military Patrol Offices, the Price Warehouse, and other places in turn.

Kaifeng Prefecture covers an area of ​​60 acres, which is quite large. The seven of them quickly toured it once and then moved on to the next place.

Because the attractions are concentrated, it only takes 10 to 20 minutes to walk from Kaifeng Prefecture to Daxiangguo Temple. However, the journey takes a relatively long time because there are so many different kinds of snacks available everywhere. Jingjing and Reba couldn't resist the food.

Zhang Jinxuan wanted Dilraba to play a "food-stealing cat," but she didn't need to act at all. She really loved to eat and scurried around like a little mudfish. As soon as Zhang Jinxuan turned around, she disappeared.

A variety of creative performances were staged to commemorate "Where Did Ba's Guard Go?"

The effect of displaying this phrase throughout the screen later on would definitely be amazing.

I ate everything from Kaifeng mutton buns, spicy soup, mutton double intestine soup, chicken blood soup, mutton soup, peanut cake, spicy peanuts, sweet potato mash...

At noon, Zhang Jinxuan treated everyone to famous Kaifeng dishes such as Bianliang roast duck, barrel chicken, and four-treasure stew, which everyone thoroughly enjoyed.

After lunch, the seven of them continued to explore the remaining attractions before moving on to the Yellow River embankment at 2 p.m.

"Wow, is this the Yellow River? It's so long and wide!" Reba shouted through the car window, "Hello, Mother Yellow River! I'm Reba, I've come to see you! Are you happy?"

Zhang Jinxuan threatened Dilraba: "The Yellow River flows quietly. You're shouting so loudly and disturbing her. Be careful she gets angry. When the Yellow River gets angry, the consequences are serious."

How serious is it?

"She gets so angry that even she is afraid of herself."

Dilraba pouted and smiled, then suddenly barked at the outside.

Zhang Jinxuan, Jingjing, the senior students from the directing department, the second senior student, and Zhuangzhuang all turned their heads and cast strange looks at Reba.

Yao Yao was speechless: "Dilraba, control yourself. You're so crazy, I'm embarrassed to tell others that you're one of my artists."

Zhang Jinxuan comforted her, "Sister Yaoyao, I think you should be proud."

"What do you mean?"

"Dilraba's imitation of a dog's bark is so lifelike. If there were similar awards in the entertainment industry, she would definitely be the best actress in both TV and film."

Yao Yao, Jing Jing, Zhuang Zhuang, and the others: "..."

Are people in the entertainment industry so bored that they set up such low-quality awards?

If the awards aren't inflated, how can there be a "water queen" and a "water emperor" (referring to awards

After playing all morning and getting to know everyone, Dilraba raised her hand to tidy her wind-blown hair and said with a smile, "I can not only imitate a dog's bark well, but I can also imitate a hen laying an egg."

Jingjing asked curiously, "What does it sound like when a hen lays an egg?"

Reba made a series of strange noises.

"There's work to be done."

"Talented."

"Is there anything else?"

"I can imitate a baby crying, waah~~"

"Ha ha."

Zhang Jinxuan and the others were amused by Reba, and the minibus was filled with joyful laughter, creating a particularly cheerful atmosphere.

After walking a short distance further, several fishing boats moored near the dike came into view.

The minibus found a place to park, and the senior students from the directing department led Zhang Jinxuan and the others to find the old fisherman, where they boarded his family's fishing boat for a tour.

This fishing boat is quite large and must be regularly maintained. It looks very new and has two levels. The upper level is covered with a tarpaulin for rain and sun protection and has some tables, chairs and benches set up for guests to eat and enjoy the Yellow River scenery.

Zhang Jinxuan thought it was good and started chatting with the old fisherman: "Uncle Liu, is this boat newly bought?"

"I've had it for four or five years."

"That's quite extravagant, it must have cost a lot of money!"

A smile appeared on the dark, aged face of fisherman Liu San, his wrinkles deepening. He said with considerable pride, "Buying the boat cost one or two hundred thousand yuan. It's the savings of three generations: my father's generation, my generation, and my son Yushan's generation."

The combined efforts of three generations amounted to nothing more than a fishing boat worth a couple hundred thousand yuan, a cruel reality that left Zhang Jinxuan speechless.

He earned several million in a single month.

"Uncle Liu, your place is brand new, the environment is nice, business must be good, right?"

"Business is so-so." The speaker was Liu Yushan, the son of the old fisherman Liu San. He looked very much like his father, with a dark face and a strong build. He poured tea for Zhang Jinxuan and his group of seven, sat down, and said, "Business is a little better on holidays, with a net profit of five or six hundred a day. On ordinary days, there is no business for several days."

Reba asked, "Business is bad, why don't you go out and find another job?"

"What kind of work do I do?" Liu Yushan scratched his head and said, "The fishermen along the Kaifeng to Zhengzhou line, like me who are around 40 years old, are all illiterate. They've never been to school and don't know anything. I rely on this to earn money to support my family."

Liu San said, "My son Yushan is promising, daring and enterprising. He's learned from others and started a fishing-themed amusement park, escaping a life of being a fisherman. Once we pay off the loan on the boat, it will be ours. If my grandson Xiaoyuan is capable, we can take out another loan to buy a fishing-themed amusement park boat after he gets married in a few years. Then our family will be one of the largest fishing fleets in Kaifeng."

Zhang Jinxuan asked, puzzled, "Uncle Liu, Brother Liu, haven't you thought about going ashore?"

"People like me can't do anything but fish," Liu San said. "I'm from Xinyang. I don't have a house back home, but I've been in Kaifeng for decades and consider this place my home. We fishermen are like 'Gypsies,' with no fixed abode. Our fishing boats are our homes; we go wherever there are fish. Our household registration doesn't have a fixed address, which makes it difficult for our children to go to school. Buying a house in Kaifeng isn't easy either. Only a very small number of fishermen can afford a house and a car; most of them are worse off than my family."

Zhang Jinxuan, Reba, Jingjing, and Yaoyao looked at each other without responding. This matter was beyond their capabilities, and it was not appropriate to continue the conversation.

Zhang Jinxuan ended the conversation and got back to the main topic: "Uncle Liu, Brother Yushan, it's getting late. Today we've decided to make braised carp noodles on your boat. Uncle Liu, could you please take us fishing in the Yellow River?"

Liu San's face was deeply wrinkled. He stood up, supporting himself on his knees, and said happily, "Okay, come with me."
