Chapter 1838 Food Stall
Feng Yiping didn't know that he was so valued by Li Fuzhen and the Samsung Li family. Of course, even if he knew, he didn't care, he would just do what he had to do.
To put it bluntly, he doesn't need to try new fields anymore. He can just continue on the current path and develop the projects currently in operation. In the future, he will not care about other people's prying eyes.
Of course, this does not mean that he himself has not taken corresponding actions. The research laboratory that has been essentially independent from "Frontier" magazine is his personal intelligence search team.
Their main task is to collect information from public channels that is useful for Feng Yiping's decision-making, as well as all information related to Jiaqiang's development, including possible competition and cooperation.
Sometimes, other methods are used to collect the required information on specific questions raised by Feng Yiping.
It can be said that there is no businessman who values information more than him, because the main reason for his own success is based on a very asymmetric information advantage.
When he set off to South Korea this time, he had a lot of relevant information stored in his computer, ranging from politicians to chaebols, and I believe there must be Samsung among them.
The main members of the Samsung Lee family, namely Mr. and Mrs. Lee Kun-hee, and their one son and three daughters, will definitely have very detailed descriptions of their work and life situations.
There should also be Hyundai, Daewoo, LG, etc., but he doesn't see much now, because he has a very clear plan for the development of his company in South Korea. Currently, it is naturally focused on the export of variety show copyrights, and he needs to cooperate with Build good relationships with the three major TV stations in South Korea.
In the future, it will be around smartphones, mainly to establish contact with Samsung.
In addition to this, the best thing to do is to check whether there are any suitable cooperation or acquisition targets in the hotel sector. In other words, there is not much need to read other information.
This trip to South Korea was still somewhat of a vacation, so his mentality was relatively relaxed.
Although the wine table was very lively, due to his status and his established drinking style, the surroundings around him were still relatively leisurely.
An Guozheng on the left was chatting with Chen Tao and did not bother him with specific matters. Quan Jixian and Kim Taehee on the right should have been the focus of the men at banquets like this in the past, but tonight, Tofeng Yi Ping's blessing, they were so leisurely that they felt a little embarrassed.
Everyone had seen the lively chat between Feng Yiping and Quan Zhixian before. Who would be so indifferent as to come over and strike up a conversation with these two people?
"You are a little different from what I imagined," Quan Zhixian took the initiative to say something after trying hard for a while.
"Really?" Feng Yiping glanced at her.
Different from those loose and casual images in the movie, she is now sitting there upright. Even her actions such as picking up food look like she has been trained and is quite dignified.
"What do you think I should look like?"
"I think you should be a serious and somewhat proud person in private," Quan Zhixian said. "After all, you are so young and so successful."
"Really, then you are also a somewhat proud person in private?"
He was using Quan Ji-hyun's tactics to praise her as a successful person.
"Haha," this time, she didn't cover her mouth and laughed so hard that her long hair jumped, "Maybe."
"Me too, maybe I only look like this in front of beauties like you,"
Jun Ji-hyun glanced at Kim Tae-hee next to her, "Really?"
"Guess!" Feng Yiping said.
Quan Zhixian almost blurted out "You kid" immediately. Is anyone chatting like this?
She didn't know that in many cases, being angry to death was the biggest feature of Feng Yiping's chat.
Kim Tae Hee whispered to her, and Jun Ji Hyun listened for a while and said with a smile, "Can I ask you a question?"
"You can ask, but I don't guarantee the answer,"
Just looking at the looks of the two of them, Feng Yiping could guess that this question must have some direction.
Quan Zhixian suddenly felt a little itchy again. Are you as sunny and innocent as you look?
She cleared her throat and said, "We know that you seem to have a good relationship with some female stars in Hollywood." At this point, she couldn't help but laugh.
Feng Yiping was helpless. The reason why she said this was naturally because of the report about him and Alba going to sea together.
"Regarding that incident, I would like to explain that I was really just sleeping on the yacht at the time,"
It would have been better if he didn't explain it. Once he did, Jun Ji-hyun and Kim Tae-hee both blushed and looked down at the table.
Feng Yiping shook his head and looked at my wording, sleep? Considering the situation at the time, others must have understood this word as a verb.
"It's for rest. I have been lying under the parasol at the bow of the boat to rest," he quickly corrected. "I was very tired in those days. I couldn't open my eyes as soon as I sat down."
"Well," Quan Zhixian was finally able to raise her head and look at him. In fact, it was not rest, but sleep. They could also understand that they had never eaten pork and hadn't seen pigs running before?
For many girls in the entertainment industry, if they could have that opportunity to be with Feng Yiping, what couldn't they do? I'm afraid Feng Yiping can only sleep if he wants to rest.
"Then we want to ask, what is the main gap between us and those female stars in Hollywood?" she asked.
"I think there may be a gap in professional standards, but it is not obvious, and it is not the main reason. The main gap lies in opportunities and platforms,"
Feng Yiping has been thinking about this issue for a long time.
"It's not that I have a prejudice against this industry. I just think that opportunities are very important in this industry. I always think that whether it is acting or singing, there are enough people with professional standards, but opportunities, especially good opportunities, are often only a few,"
"We can imagine that if you didn't have the opportunity to film "My Sassy Girl" and Miss Jin didn't have the opportunity to film "Stairway to Heaven", it is very likely that you two can only watch the two girls who replaced you and frequently appear on various occasions,"
Jun Ji-hyun and Kim Tae-hee nodded like chicks pecking at rice. For people in their industry, how important a good opportunity is, they have a very deep understanding.
"The reason why those Hollywood actresses are world-famous is not necessarily because of their excellent professional standards. A big reason is that they are on a platform with global influence."
"Another very important point is that they have some natural advantages. We know that in Hollywood, even black actors always face many problems. It is even more difficult for us Asians to make a name for ourselves in Hollywood."
Jun Ji-hyun and Kim Tae-hee looked at each other again. This really makes people feel helpless, but unfortunately, this is the fact.
Although they are very popular in many Asian countries, it is difficult for them to be the main female supporting roles in Hollywood, let alone the female lead.
"Let's take Lucy Liu, a Chinese actress who has developed well in Hollywood in the past two years. When she filmed the first "Charlie's Angels", the other two white actresses were paid $10 million, but she only received $1 million,"
"Even after filming "Kill Bill", it only rose to $5.5 million, which is the highest paid among all Asian female stars so far,"
"You will change this situation, right?" Jun Ji-hyun asked.
As an actress with aspirations, who doesn't yearn for Hollywood?
Because strictly speaking, in the entertainment industry, only stars recognized by Hollywood are real stars.
Feng Yiping answered her question in a very businesslike tone, "I don't have more information to provide on this aspect at present."
For some things, he can only make some changes. It is difficult to make a big change.
After hearing his serious answer, Jeon Ji-hyun wanted to take a few bottles of soju and compete with him. If you can't even drink more than me, how can you still be so arrogant?
But doing so is easy to get into trouble, so she still held back and asked another relatively relaxed question, "What do you want to do most in Korea?"
"Really," Feng Yiping thought for a while, "On such a night, with a beautiful woman, tasting food in a street stall,"
Needless to say, this is also influenced by Korean dramas.
A common plot in Korean dramas is that the male and female protagonists drink soju in a street stall and talk to each other, and then one party takes care of the drunken other party, which makes the relationship between the two people change qualitatively.
Hearing him talk about this, the two of them couldn't help swallowing their saliva in front of the table full of delicacies.
Jeon Ji-hyun is nicknamed "the whole glutton", and Kim Tae-hee is actually not much behind. She didn't eat four bowls of rice like Jeon Ji-hyun, she only ate two bowls, but in addition to the two bowls of rice, she would also add three pieces of cake.
"This is easy, I can fully meet your requirements," Jeon Ji-hyun said.
…………
At ten o'clock in the evening, Feng Yiping really appeared with Jeon Ji-hyun near a subway station in Myeongdong. The five food stalls in that area, literally translated as cloth tent carriages, are the kind of food stalls that are commonly seen in Korean dramas, surrounded by cloth tents hanging from the roof, and from a distance they look like caravans surrounded by cloth tents. They were all booked.
This can be said to be the first time Feng Yiping booked a place for dinner, and he booked five of them at once, which can be said to be very bold.
He and Jun Ji-hyun sat in the food stall in the middle. The door made of cloth and plastic paper kept the cold wind out. The small space was filled with the smell of food that could stimulate people's appetite. The most obvious one should be kimchi.
They sat opposite each other at a simple table. Two aunties in white chef uniforms stood beside them enthusiastically. They didn't recognize Feng Yiping, but they recognized Jun Ji-hyun and were very happy for her presence.
But the look in her eyes when she looked at Feng Yiping was full of scrutiny, as if she was checking for Jun Ji-hyun.
"What do you want to eat?" Jun Ji-hyun blew on her hands, her face red again.
"First, grilled pork belly. On a night like this, grilled pork belly and soju, um, perfect! And, of course, fried rice cakes are indispensable, or, another serving of kimchi pancake?"
"You really know a lot,"
"Because I am also a foodie,"
Jun Ji-hyun said that she was very sensitive to the word "also," "Did you hear something?"
At this moment, she seemed to be a wild girlfriend, no longer sitting as dignified as in the banquet hall, but resting her hands on the table.
"Nothing, we have an old saying, called being able to eat is a blessing, which can only mean that you are a very blessed person,"
"My image, ugh, is ruined by the mouths of these idle people," Jun Ji-hyun was embarrassed to look at Feng Yiping, and shouted to the two busy aunts behind her, "Oh, is the barbecue ready?"
"It's ready," the grill with charcoal fire below was brought up, and the marinated and seasoned pork belly was already on it, making a sizzling sound.
"Although I know it's unhealthy, the taste of this grease is really hard to resist," Jun Ji-hyun turned it with chopsticks.
"Yes, yes, can we eat it?" Feng Yiping was also a little impatient.
Roasted pork belly is more suitable for such a cold night!
"Try it," Jun Ji-hyun picked up a piece for him. At this time, her mobile phone on the table rang. She turned it off as soon as she saw it. "My mom,"
"Oh, by the way, my mom asked me to take more pictures of you,"
"Well, many mothers like young people like me," Feng Yiping said a little, because the meat was a little hot, but it was really well processed, very tender, soft as if it would melt in the mouth, and with a faint sweetness, which really impressed him.
"Yes, you are the child of other people's families in the mouths of mothers," Jun Ji-hyun said, sitting next to Feng Yiping, holding up the phone, "Don't move, look at the camera," her head tilted over, and her hair touched Feng Yiping's hair.
After a "click" sound, she did not return to her original position. Feng Yiping said, "You should put your head back a little bit,"
"Why?" Jun Ji-hyun asked with some caution.
"Because it will make your face look small and beautiful,"
"Does my face look big?" She patted Feng Yiping on the shoulder.
To be honest, if you put your hair away, it is really not small.
"It's okay, come on, eat some meat,"
"What do you mean by looking at me like that?"
The two middle-aged women looked at Jun Ji-hyun and shook their heads quietly. Oh, this girl!
