Chapter 2450 Two-Dollar Script
When they got home, Yang Geyong and Ye Yuze were busy making big plate chicken. We ate too much mutton last night, so we were going to change the taste today.
Yang Geyong has always been the main force in cooking, and now he is frying chicken. The soul of big plate chicken is to use local chicken, and then the first step is to fry the cut local chicken in the pan.
The reason for frying is to first fry the water and fat in the chicken, so that it is not only chewy, but also fragrant and not greasy.
When the chicken is half cooked, add potatoes and tomatoes, and add some onions. Onions are called piyazi in northern Xinjiang. Why is it called piyazi? According to experts, it is derived from Turkic.
Piyazi and tomatoes are a perfect match. They can not only be used as seasonings, but also as vegetables.
Relatively speaking, they are the least used in China, and most of them are only eaten as vegetables.
Not to mention potatoes, which are the staple food in many countries.
These vegetables can not only perfectly remove the fishy smell of chicken, but also enhance the freshness and make the chicken more delicious.
Yang Geyong's cooking of northern Xinjiang rice is incomparable to that of ordinary chefs. The food he prepared can make people hungry before it is served.
Ye Yuze was making noodles on the side. The noodles in the big plate chicken are not the round ones commonly seen in northern Xinjiang, but wide noodles.
This kind of noodles must be rolled first and then stretched. The noodles must be wide and not too thick to ensure the toughness of the noodles after cooking.
People in northern Xinjiang eat noodles. If they are not chewy, no one will eat them. They will not let you make them again.
Ye Yuze has done a good job in researching noodles. He never uses a rolling pin, but can stretch wide noodles directly with his hands.
Several girls surrounded the old man and watched, making "tsk tsk" sounds constantly, while Ye Xin just stared at the pot, drooling.
While everyone was busy, there was a knock on the door outside. Ye Mao opened the door and saw that he didn't recognize him.
In fact, it's not that he didn't recognize him at all. It's that the woman looked familiar, but the man really didn't recognize him.
The two walked up to Yang Geyong and shouted, "Boss Yang."
Yang Geyong had just put water in the pot to stew the chicken. Seeing the two people coming in, he just nodded, but didn't say anything.
Minnie suddenly exclaimed, "Ma Xiao!"
Everyone looked carefully, isn't it the actress Ma Xiao in the TV series Life and Death Brothers that just ended?
Although they are all students of Huaqing University, it is inevitable to chase stars. For example, Minnie likes the role played by Ma Xiao very much.
Wang Wenwan and the little girl Ye Xin were excited with her. There were not many TV series in this era, and there were few TV stations. So everyone basically watched every new drama.
In the later generations, there are many satellite TV stations, and it is common that most people can't see many TV series after they are broadcast.
Ouyang Xue looked at Ma Xiao and found that she had some characteristics except for her upturned nose. She looked a little different from herself, so she stopped paying attention.
On the contrary, Liu Ling estimated Ma Xiao's height and even moved forward. He found that she was still a little taller, so he breathed a sigh of relief.
The main reason was that she had also watched the TV series and always felt that Ma Xiao was better than herself. Now that she saw the real person and knew the result, the mystery in her heart was revealed. Sure enough, what you see in the camera cannot be trusted.
Seeing Yang Geyong's indifference, Li Fengshan was a little embarrassed and touched Ma Xiao with his hand. They already knew the matter and figured out the entanglement between Ma Xiao and Yang Geyong, so they brought her to apologize.
The movie was only shot one-third, but the funding chain was broken. This was Li Fengshan's debut, and he was naturally unwilling. So he wanted to talk to Yang Geyong.
Ma Xiao was reminded by Li Fengshan and had to bite the bullet and shout: "Mr. Yang."
This time Yang Geyong nodded, which was considered a little face.
Li Fengshan felt bitter in his heart. It seems that the young director is really inferior to others!
However, things have come to this point. As a director, he has put in so much effort, so naturally he has to find a way to shoot the film.
"Boss Yang, I'm Li Fengshan, the director of Zhu Bajie. I'm here today to discuss with you about continuing the filming of the movie. Do you think we can talk about it in another place?"
Yang Geyong glanced at him: "Can't you see I'm cooking? How can I have time to go out? Are you responsible for the meals of all the people in this room?"
Li Fengshan didn't know Yang Geyong's background at all. Seeing that he was dressed in ordinary clothes and cooked by himself, he felt a little contemptuous.
"Boss Yang, although you bought the film, only one-third of it has been filmed so far, and the initial investment has cost 10 million. I have contacted you in advance, but you haven't responded. Shouldn't you give me an explanation?"
Although he is not famous, Li Fengshan is young after all. Seeing that Yang Geyong is just an ordinary person and his attitude is so neglectful, he got angry and his tone became impolite.
Ye Yuze shook his head secretly on the side, continued to stretch the noodles, and mourned for Li Fengshan for a minute.
Sure enough, Yang Geyong finally looked up at him and asked with a strange expression:
"What explanation do I have for you? Who are you?"
Li Fengshan: "I am the director of Zhu Bajie and also the producer of the film. As an investor, shouldn't you give me an explanation?"
Minnie was a little nervous and looked at Yang Geyong worriedly. This Li Fengshan was a little domineering, and she was afraid that Yang Geyong could not handle it.
Unexpectedly, Yang Geyong said "Oh" and nodded:
"Okay, I bought this film because I don't want it to be filmed anymore. Is this explanation okay?"
Li Fengshan's eyes suddenly widened: "Mr. Yang, 10 million have been spent. The entire crew has paid so much, how can you be so irresponsible? Who will bear the loss?"
Yang Geyong started to cut the potatoes. In fact, he didn't cut them, but broke them down with a spoon. This made the potato pieces easier to absorb the soup and tasted very good.
Hearing Li Fengshan's words, Yang Geyong didn't even raise his head and asked lightly:
"What should I tell you about Li Chaohui's money? I only spent one yuan to buy the movie, and I bought it just so I wouldn't make it. Do you have any objections?"
Li Fengshan was stunned for a moment, not knowing what to say. There is nothing wrong with what he said. He only spent one yuan. What does the initial investment have to do with him?
"Haha!" Ye Mao couldn't help it and laughed on the side.
Ouyang Xue reached out and pinched his arm: "Be serious, we are talking about something."
Ye Mao disagreed: "I, Uncle Yang, don't want to talk about it. Why can't I just smile?"
Then he rolled his eyes and said, "Uncle Yang, how about this, can I buy the film rights for two yuan?"
Yang Geyong waved his hand: "You can take it, but you must give two yuan!"
Ye Mao took out his pocket and took out a stack of one hundred coins, and then continued to look through it, but there was no change. He spread his hands helplessly:
"Who has the change? Whoever has the copyright belongs to you?"
Li Fengshan's expression looked like he had eaten shit, but he couldn't say anything.
Ma Xiao bit her lip and walked up to Yang Geyong: "I was wrong. I will listen to you from now on. Can we take a good picture?"
Before coming, Ma Xiao had carefully considered the seriousness of the matter. Although she didn't know the details of Yang Geyong, the fact that she was able to obtain the copyright from Li Chaohui showed that this person was not simple.
Although I don’t know what happened? Li Chaohui went to England without showing his face, but the whole thing was weird.
And Director Li has been watching eagerly from the side. If Ma Xiao can't make a way out of this film, her acting career will be completely terminated.
No matter what, she had to fight for herself. She was so moved by Li Chaohui that she was ready to commit herself to him, but he disappeared.
Although she didn't like this Yang Geyong, as long as he could get her to stand up, she didn't care what the cost was.
"Be obedient? Why do you want to listen to me? As promised, I have no interest in you. Even if we continue filming, I will replace you."
Yang Geyong has no mercy at all. He bought this movie just to slap someone in the face, so he won't save face at all?
Ye Mao actually doesn't understand what's going on? After quickly asking his father, Ye Yuze told the whole thing in a low voice, and Ye Mao suddenly realized.
He really couldn't get involved in this kind of thing. He wanted Uncle Yang to slap their faces until they were swollen before he spoke.
Ma Xiao's tears suddenly flowed out, but at this moment she no longer complained. She walked her own path, and Yang Geyong would have done the same in her place.
Gritting his teeth, he wiped away his tears: "Mr. Yang, this happened because of me. I quit this film. Don't make things difficult for Director Li. He doesn't know about these things."
Ma Xiao left decisively, although her heart was full of desolation and sadness. But she has no regrets. There is no such word in the adult world.
"Uncle Yang, you can't do this. Mom said that men who make women cry are not good men!"
A childish voice sounded. It turned out to be Ye Xin who walked up to Yang Geyong in tears and looked at him cutely with her big eyes.
In fact, Yang Geyong just wanted to vent his anger, so he spent one yuan to buy the copyright of this movie. Once he was angry, it would be over.
But the little girl's cry suddenly tugged at his heart. He held the little girl in his arms and waved to Ye Mao:
"Pay the damn money, I don't want this movie anymore!"
Ouyang Xue took out his pocket and found a one-dollar coin. Liu Ling took out his pocket and also found a one-dollar coin. Ye Maodu took it and patted it in Yang Geyong's hand:
"Uncle, this movie belongs to me!"
Yang Geyong waved his hand: "It's yours. Don't let them bother me in the future. They made the little baby cry!"
Lili and Han Xiaojing looked helplessly at the old man, speechless.
Minnie looked excited: "Uncle, you are a good person!"
Ye Mao did not let Ma Xiao and Li Fengshan go, but learned about the details of the film in detail.
Li Fengshan explained the entire idea of the play and handed him the script. Ye Mao took it and looked at it carefully.
He has read so many books in the past few months? I came into contact with a lot of online articles, and I already had the idea of writing one of my own. Of course, writing online articles, physical books are increasingly in decline.
Today, Uncle Yang accidentally sent such a fantasy movie into his hands. Isn't this just like a duck to water?
So I took the script and read it intently. While reading it, I gave Li Fengshan various suggestions.
Li Fengshan was careless at first. After all, what else could such a child think?
Unexpectedly, Ye Mao mixed all kinds of strange ideas into it, causing Li Fengshan's brain to freeze from time to time. Then after his explanation, he suddenly realized it.
At the end of the sentence, Li Fengshan slapped his thigh and stood up:
"Brother, you work with me to revise the script. I must make this film into a classic that combines classical and modern fantasy!"
Just after saying this, Li Fengshan suddenly thought of something and asked:
"If this happens, the cost of the film will increase a lot. Do you have that much money?"
Ye Mao wanted to pat his chest and say it was no problem, but when he looked at his father who was cooking noodles, he suddenly looked bitter, sighed and stopped talking.
Ye Xin, who was always paying attention to this side, looked up and said to Yang Geyong:
"Uncle Yang, my brother has no money."
Yang Geyong didn't say a word, took out a checkbook, wrote a check and handed it to Ye Xin:
"Send it to your brother, tell me if it's not enough."
Ye Mao took it and smiled, shaking it towards Li Fengshan:
"One hundred million, this should be enough, right?"
Li Fengshan looked at Yang Geyong in surprise, and then he realized that he really looked down on others. How much property does a person who can casually take out one hundred million have? He didn't dare to think about it.
At this time, Ye Yuze cursed: "Why do you give him money? I don't believe he doesn't even have one hundred million!"
Ye Mao smiled frivolously: "I want to make Uncle Yang a big crocodile in the film and television industry, so I must use his money!"
Ma Xiao was shocked, Ouyang Xue was shocked, Minnie and Wang Wenwan were full of stars. Only Liu Ling was thoughtful, his eyes kept glancing at Ye Yuze and Yang Geyong.
Lunch was simple, just big plate chicken and pulled noodles, but everyone had mixed feelings while eating. Who was the person with the net worth to prepare this meal? One hundred million was thrown away without blinking an eye.
After dinner, Ye Mao and a few others followed Li Fengshan back to the crew. They still had to discuss the script in detail, while Ma Xiao didn't say anything. I don't know what he was thinking?
It wasn't until Ye Mao and his friends went home at night that Ma Xiao whispered:
"Can I go back with you?"
After dinner, Ye Mao and his group returned to school, mainly because they didn't drink today, and Ye Yuze didn't let them drink.
Liu Ling's alcohol tolerance was unfathomable, and Ye Yuze was afraid that Yang Geyong would be spoiled.
Ma Xiao didn't leave, but walked into the room where Yang Geyong lived.
Yang Geyong glanced at her: "Go back, I don't have any idea about you, I just simply like the role you play at the beginning."
Ma Xiao shook her head: "But I like you, I don't deny that I am utilitarian, but you can help me, so it's worth it to give anything for you, it's much better than a man who cheats me of my body under the guise of love!"
Yang Geyong sighed: "I'm old and need a love without any impurities. I can help you with your future films, but I don't want to sleep with you."
Ma Xiao bit her lip: "Even if you don't invest in me, I won't leave today. Because you are the most manly man I have ever met."
Yang Geyong looked at her seriously: "But I only have desire for you now!"
Ma Xiao raised her eyebrows: "I do!"
Where's the money? A little wilted, put on the bayonet
