Artists under the Rebirth of the Coal Boss

Chapter 129 Blue Platform! "Delicious Food Wins the World!"

The 2009 Southern Song Imperial Street Gold and Silver Currency Exhibition was held at the Yangbatou branch of the Industrial and Commercial Bank of China, located in the core area of ​​the Southern Song Imperial Street.

The Lin'an Southern Song Dynasty Coin Museum has transferred its collection of gold and silver coins to the exhibition, displaying a total of 23 items including Southern Song Dynasty gold and silver ingots, gold plaques, and the official seal of the "Xingzai Quehuowu Duchachang" (Imperial Tea Market).

In addition, a large number of private collectors also participated in the exhibition and trading of their collections.

In the private collection trading area, Li Nian spent two hundred yuan to buy a fifty-tael silver ingot and gave it to Lin Xingzhuo.

Lin Xingzhuo looked at the fifty-tael silver ingot for military supplies from the Southern Song Dynasty in the paulownia wood box in his hand, and then at Li Nian, who had a rustic and innocent look in front of him.

This girl truly deserves to be called the top "marriageable" star of the new millennium! She's incredibly lucky for her husband!

A 6-tael silver ingot for military supplies from the Southern Song Dynasty sold for US$6000 at a SBP auction in 2020, equivalent to RMB 48.

Li Nian managed to snag it for a mere two hundred yuan in a street market where 99% of the goods were counterfeit…

It's like the God of Wealth has possessed them!!

…………

I have just finished attending the Southern Song Dynasty Imperial Street Gold and Silver Currency Exhibition.

Lin Xingzhuo and Li Nian bought a bottle of Gu Yue Long Shan liquor at the Quick convenience store, and then bought braised beef shank, Chongqing-style mixed vegetables, and roast chicken at the Wansen Braised Food City in the Fengqi Farmers Market...

I came to West Lake at dusk and rented a self-propelled boat near the Broken Bridge pier.

The two of them were boating and drinking on West Lake, thoroughly enjoying themselves.

Sunlight, like molten gold, pierced through Xiling Bridge, igniting the tips of the weeping willow leaves on the bank into a golden-green hue. The archway transformed into a fiery red glass passageway, and the light pierced through the stone walls, spreading across the water's surface. The ripples shattered the gold leaf into countless leaping scales...

This is a limited-time sunset view at West Lake in Lin'an! Golden light shines through the tunnels!!!
…………

Limited by the average level of education in the entertainment industry, Li Nian wanted to say something, but only opened his mouth and uttered:
"So beautiful!!"

Lin Xingzhuo is a big fan of King Hu's new martial arts novels.

In my previous life, I also volunteered to review the first 4K documentary on poetry and literature, "Holding the Moon in My Hands," as well as documentaries such as "The Charm of Tang" and "Biographies of Masters: The Eight Great Masters of Tang and Song Dynasties"...

Upon seeing this scene, he softly murmured, "Floating light leaps like gold, still shadows sink like jade."

Li Nian, who was eating braised beef shank next to Lin Xingzhuo and muttering to himself, "You only realize how little you know when you need it, and the bridge arch is incredibly round," felt that Lin Xingzhuo's clear voice and the recitation of the poem were like opening an ancient painting.

The way she looked at Lin Xingzhuo at that moment was like the Jade Rabbit seeing Tang Sanzang...

We live a lifetime, but it's all just a few moments.

This boat trip on West Lake with Lin Xingzhuo, with its serene and tranquil atmosphere, was definitely a memorable experience!
…………

After the two finished rowing, they sat on a wooden bench along the Bai Causeway, eating the leftover braised dishes and drinking yellow wine while chatting.

Thump! Thump! Thump! Thump...

Just as Lin Xingzhuo was about to reach the base, he received a phone call... The caller ID showed Zhang Youqian...

Five or six minutes later, Zhang Youqian appeared on Bai Causeway with an NDS game she had bought for Lin Xingzhuo.

Zhang Youqian wiped away her sweat and said, "President Lin, I went to the electronic information street on Wensan Road in Xihu District twice."

"Mission accomplished! I finally bought the Grand Theft Auto: Chinatown Wars NDS Collector's Edition you wanted!"

Lin Xingzhuo took the cassette tape, poured some rice wine into a disposable cup, and said, "Want to sit down and have a drink with me?"

"Okay!"

Zhang Youqian swallowed hard as she looked at the remaining half of the roast chicken, completely ignoring Li Nian's piercing gaze, and happily sat down.

After finishing a whole bottle of Gu Yue Long Shan beer, the group went to a roadside barbecue stall at the end of Bai Causeway, ordered some snacks to go with the drinks, and half a case of West Lake beer.

After a few rounds of drinks, Li Nian, emboldened by his slight intoxication, asked, "Lin Xingzhuo, what kind of girl do you like?"

Lin Xingzhu thought for a moment, took a sip of beer, and replied, "I don't really have any requirements for girls... It's best if they're ambitious!"

Zhang Youqian added in a low voice, "You need to be rich in the future..."

Lin Xingzhuo continued, "It also needs to make me feel safe."

Zhang Youqian took a sip of beer and said, "Now we need money!"

Lin Xingzhuo glanced at Zhang Youqian.

Was this guy the tapeworm in my stomach in his past life, and he traveled through time with me?

Lin Xingzhuo: "I want a stable life!"

Zhang Youqian: "Always be rich!"

Lin Xingzhuo: "He's responsible!" Zhang Youqian took another big gulp of West Lake beer: "Spend money on him!"

Lin Xingzhuo: "That's right! Actually, boys are very simple; they just need to have a sense of ritual!"

Zhang Youqian: "I spend money on him from time to time!"

Lin Xingzhu lit a hard-pack West Lake cigarette and said, "Girls should have a touch of freshness! That makes them more attractive to guys!"

Zhang Youqian translated: "He spends money on me all the time!"

Lin Xingzhu thought for a moment and then said, "The most beautiful girls are those who understand romance!"

Zhang Youqian immediately chimed in: "I know how to spend money on him!"

Lin Xingzhuo exhaled a puff of smoke and said, "New-era female celebrities in the Chinese entertainment industry! They must be responsible!"

Zhang Youqian: "He spends money on his female best friend!"

Lin Xingzhuo added at the end: "It also needs to be positive and provide emotional value."

Zhang Youqian rolled her eyes, finished her beer bottle, and said, "It's about spending money on him! And making him happy!!"

Li Nian listened to their back-and-forth conversation, fiddling with the Van Cleef & Arpels four-leaf clover necklace around his neck, and couldn't stop laughing.

…………

On the way back, the executive broker, Xiao Ma, drove his Audi Q7 to the hotel.

Li Nian put the tourist souvenir photos, which were quickly developed, into his favorite Prada cross-grain leather wallet with an enamel metal logo.

She looked at Lin Xingzhuo sitting in the passenger seat, recalling his conversation with his agent Zhang Youqian, her thoughts wandering...

"Looks like the rent for the flower shop and two other shops in Shanghai still won't be enough! I need to work harder to earn more money!!!"

"Because... the things I like are excellent! And the people I like are expensive!!"

........................

The next day, at 2:30 pm, at No. 111 Moganshan Road, Lin'an City, in the conference room on the sixth floor of the Lantai headquarters.

The cast and crew of "Dwelling Narrowness," including Zhang Jiayi, Li Nian, Hai Qing, Lin Xingzhuo, executive director Cao Dun, and producer Zhu Jinghong, arrived at Zhejiang TV one after another.

Wen Zhang was filming "Ocean Heaven" with his godfather, and his schedule was packed.

Director Teng Huatao was too busy filming "Look at This Family" so he arranged for Cao Dun and Zhu Jinghong to represent the family.

Editor Qiqi is currently in seclusion, reportedly writing a new script about the medical industry and the doctor-patient relationship in the martial arts world, called "Xin Shu" (Heart Technique).

…………

Inside the conference room, a director's briefing was held for the program "Delicious Food Wins the World".

The chief director explained the theme and narrative logic of the episode to the entire crew, including the cinematographer, lighting technician, costume and prop master, and clarified the "food + game" route design for the outdoor scenes.

They also suggested learning from Pengcheng TV's "Era Show," where every segment serves the theme and evokes emotional resonance from television viewers!
…………

Lin Xingzhuo saw Zhu Dan, Hua Shao, and Zuo Yan in the conference room.

These three are probably the earliest memories many people have of Zhejiang TV.

At the meeting, there was also a young man named Yang Di, a temporary performer, who diligently served tea and water and took notes.

He somehow learned of Lin Xingzhuo's nickname "Gourmet Doraemon" and even brought her a bag of Zuming dried tofu as a snack for the meeting.

…………

The director's briefing lasted from afternoon until evening.

Everyone ate their dinner boxes together, discussing the script, the food, and the interactive games.

This meticulous approach to program development is a professional spirit that Zhejiang TV has long since lost...

This relentless pursuit of excellence has enabled "Delicious Food Wins the World," the youngest team at Zhejiang TV, to become one of the station's flagship evening programs, thanks to its high ratings and appeal to a young audience.

Furthermore, starting in the 2010s, they were specifically responsible for attracting viewers to prime-time drama slots, helping the drama slots consistently rank among the top three in provincial satellite TV ratings!
…………

By the time everything was finalized, it was already past nine o'clock at night.

The cast and crew of "Dwelling Narrowness" took the elevator and left the headquarters of Zhejiang TV.

Li Nian suggested, "Let's go to karaoke and relax!"
