My wife is in my arms

Chapter 1093 Leisurely Variety Show Part 4

Huang Qi doesn't look like any other celebrity on Earth with the same surname, Huang.

Their cooking skills don't seem like it either.

Zhang You tasted it and thought it was pretty good, so he gave Huang Qi a thumbs up and said, "Teacher Huang, your cooking skills are good enough to open a restaurant!"

"I almost forgot about the restaurant if you hadn't mentioned it."

Huang Qi seized on this opportunity and went straight to the point, "I recently bought a script for a late-night restaurant from Richeng and plan to adapt it. So... could I make a cameo appearance?"

"..."

Zhang You was speechless for a moment.

They both have the surname Huang, which seems to have created some resonance, as they both actually want to make TV series on that kind of subject.

"Zhang You doesn't have that kind of time. His wife just gave birth to two children, and he's busy writing songs and managing his studio."

Noticing the displeasure that flashed in Zhang You's eyes, Liu Ling proactively deflected the question, saying, "Not only that, he currently has two films in production. Zhang You, isn't 'Crazy Stone' a comedy?! I absolutely love the comedy genre you write about."

I also enjoy the shows you host.

Zhang You replied with a smile.

Obviously.

They're just taking this opportunity to promote his movie.

The reason Zhang You was willing to continue the friendship he formed with Liu Ling from the second season of "Special Voice" is that Liu Ling is indeed different from ordinary hosts, and has an exceptionally high emotional intelligence.

"A few hours will be enough."

Huang Qi persisted.

If Zhang You hadn't participated in the recording, Huang Qi knew that with his status and background, it would have been impossible to invite him to make a guest appearance. But since he had appeared and was currently recording, Huang Qi felt that even if Zhang You was unwilling, he would at least give him some face when he made this request.

Liu Ling glanced at Huang Qi. He disliked this guy for two reasons. First, he liked to lecture. He had never seen Huang Qi be a teacher. He didn't know where Huang Qi had picked up this habit of being a know-it-all.

Secondly, they were tactless. If they really wanted to invite someone to act in a film, they could have communicated privately. Why did they keep bringing it up during the recording process?

Just as I was about to try and smooth things over for Zhang You, he spoke up.

Teacher Huang

Zhang You said, "Although this is our first meeting, you are my senior, so I won't beat around the bush and will just speak frankly. I feel that content like late-night restaurants doesn't fit the national context. We are more familiar with the lively atmosphere of late-night scenes like street food stalls and barbecue stands. So, personally, I think... Of course, this is just my opinion. Whether you want to film it or not is up to you."

Zhang You's meaning was already quite clear.

It's not that he doesn't have the time, nor that he's unwilling to make a cameo appearance.

Rather, it was simply that they didn't think highly of the subject matter. Hearing Zhang You say it so bluntly, the three new generation actors didn't even dare to breathe, and Liu Ling didn't know how to smooth things over.

He knew that Huang Qi's reckless behavior would anger Zhang You. Don't be fooled by Zhang You's seemingly amiable appearance; he's a powerful figure in the financial world and wouldn't be easily swayed by Huang Qi.

For a while.

Huang Qi's expression was a little unpleasant, but he still managed to restrain himself.

"How to say!?"

Huang Qi asked.

"Detached from reality"

Zhang Youyan succinctly stated.

"Then why is this drama, 'The City of the Sun,' so popular? Have you seen it?"

Huang Qi asked, "I haven't seen it."

Zhang You shook his head and then said, "It's just a few points. First, Midnight Diner is a unique feature of Richeng, so the audience will feel it's real. Second, the characters are realistically portrayed. Then there's the healing element as the core, and there's not too much commercial interference. If you use a street food stall as the core of your creation and use cinematic language to present the lives of ordinary people after a busy day and other aspects, then there's no problem, because these are things that happen to us."

Zhang You paused for a moment, then continued, "For example, if a man orders two dishes and a bottle of beer late at night, and you, as the owner of a street food stall, see him drinking alone so late, and ask him if he just got off work or is out for a late-night snack, and he replies that he has paid off his mortgage, what you, as the owner, should do is obvious. This resonates with many people."

"I think what you're saying is unrealistic."

Huang Qi thought for a moment and replied.

"hehe"

Zhang You chuckled twice, too lazy to argue with him anymore.

Peng Yi, who was standing to the side, didn't dare to interrupt, but he listened very carefully. After learning from him that the superstar Zhang You was coming, his manager reminded him that in addition to leaving a good impression on Zhang You, he should also "speak less and listen more".

Now, listening to the conversation between Teacher Zhang and Teacher Huang, he feels that Teacher Zhang is the real one, while Teacher Huang may have been out of touch with reality for too long and can no longer distinguish between what is real and what is fake.

Liu Ling had nothing more to say to Huang Qi.

In the field of screenwriting, Zhang You has already proven himself with two scripts: "Goodbye Mr. Loser" grossed over 2 billion yuan and "The Truman Show" grossed 3.7 billion yuan, with over 200,000 moviegoers giving the film a five-star rating.

Even after its run ended, the rating remained consistently high at 9.2.

With such results... it's already quite good that they offered him guidance.

Noticing that the up-and-coming actress named Zhou Qing glanced at him again, Zhang You subconsciously touched his face. After finding nothing wrong, he didn't pay any more attention to it.

The recording continued until a little after nine o'clock.

The recording for today finally ended. After taking a shower, Zhang You returned to the room where he had put his luggage in the morning. He fell asleep shortly after lying down and didn't feel tired for a long time. Zhang You finally realized this in the past two days.

After completing my postpartum confinement period.

Jiang Yiren set up a gym downstairs from her home.

I practice with equipment during the day.

I'll use him to practice at night.

Just like an explosion after being suppressed for a long time, it made Zhang You... He originally planned to come back to participate in the recording in a few days, but in order to have some peace and quiet, he came over after only one day.

The main reason was the night of the two sons' one-month celebration, plus the afternoon of the next day with Bao'er, and then the singer when I got home that night... After two nights of this, I still couldn't rest on the second night. At this rate... even a thousand-year-old ginseng couldn't withstand this kind of exhaustion.

then.

Zhang You chose to arrive early.

Around midnight, Zhang You was awakened by a soft knocking on the door. He thought he had misheard, but when the knocking started again, he was convinced that someone was indeed knocking on his door in the middle of the night.

"Who!?"

Zhang You asked a question.

He didn't think too much about it, after all, this was the accommodation provided for the recording of the show. Even if an actress liked to knock on the door of a big shot in the middle of the night, she wouldn't dare to come and knock on the door under these circumstances.

This is not about trading your health for resources.

Instead, they're courting death.

Seeing no one answer, Zhang You opened the door. The moment the door opened, a figure slipped in and turned off the room light. From the figure, Zhang You already knew who it was.

The woman who said no one was good enough for him before dinner was Zhou Qing, who kept glancing at him.

The idea that no one is good enough for her is just a joke, because she doesn't need anyone else to match her; she offers herself up to be matched with someone.
