my gilded age

Chapter 383: Renamed "Night Food", Lao Bai's craftsmanship

"Night Food" was originally called "Midnight Kebab Shop". Of course, this name completely exposed the fact that Baek Shi-qiu has naming disorder. This guy does have this problem.

But when it comes to this midnight... well, now it's called "Night Food", let's just say this "Night Food", from the name you can tell it's a TV series about food, and it's at night, so of course this inspiration comes from "Midnight Diner" .

Bai Shiqiu did not shy away from this, but he also made it very clear that he would not plagiarize this drama, because he knew that if he really copied "Midnight Diner", Huang Xiaochu is an example. This drama is on the grave Fuck, it's over one meter tall.

Seriously, why is the Chinese version of this drama so clumsy?

The reason is also very simple. Both directors are from Taiwan. I won’t go into more details. It really makes people sigh.

If we don’t talk about anything else, when it comes to food, the whole world is in a state of admiration for us in China. In the United States, the popularity of Chinese restaurants, such as chicken nuggets, golden arches, and Japanese sushi, are unmatched.In Japan, Chinese cuisine is very famous. Japanese people all know that there are many kinds of Chinese food, although most Japanese people only know two Chinese dishes, Mapo tofu and sweet and sour shrimp.

There are many people, it is really... oh~
Just look at how exquisite Japanese food is and how good it looks, but in fact, the ramen is all filled with soy sauce and MSG, and the soup is simply produced in a chemistry laboratory.

Master Chua Lam, the God of Food in Hong Kong, once said that Japanese ramen was originally a soy sauce soup in the 60s and [-]s. It gradually improved, but it has never been able to get rid of the soy sauce base, especially Tokyo-style ramen. It's very salty, and you can't even notice it when you eat it, because there are so many messy ingredients in it, and you'll be drinking tons of water after eating it.

What’s interesting is that when you really get to the top of Japanese cuisine, you’ll find that it’s boiled. There’s a restaurant called Nishi, opened by Japanese yokozuna-level chef Kenichiro Nishi. The main items in this restaurant are basically boiled. The soup is mainly light, and the soup is just ordinary kelp soup. Of course, after the old man passed away, the restaurant could not continue to operate. However, the so-called cuisine in Japan, the more advanced it is, the more light it is, like Western Kenichiro and his family have cooked for the Prime Minister for three generations.

Ramen is the most common food.

This kind of complaint is of course because Lao Bai has done a lot of homework. He has eaten so much delicious food before, and now he wants to make a food TV series, so of course he can't neglect it.

"Midnight Diner" only had comics at this time, and most people in China didn't know about it, that is, it hadn't become popular yet, but Bai Shiqiu still didn't plan to copy this comic or TV series. He wanted to make something of our own, down-to-earth. .

So, at the beginning, he was thinking about what kind of store he would open?
I have a wide range of Chinese food, and I can’t take pictures of just the eight major cuisines.

Learn to cook by yourself?

Obviously not, so he recalled, recalled, and remembered the barbecue in his hometown in his memory, and remembered the kebab restaurant in the fly restaurant.

Lao Bai just wanted to open a skewers shop and use it to make a movie. This movie would have skewers and a story, so it should be very interesting.

But now, everyone feels that the name of the skewer restaurant is a bit too down-to-earth, and it has been changed to "Night Food", so the variety will naturally increase.

Lao Bai is also smart, and he still likes barbecue.

"Let's focus on skewers, how about other dishes as supplements?"

This time, they are all the elites of Red Star, Zhou Shen, Rao Xiaozhi, Lei Zhilong, the director team is quite strong, others include Deng Ye Wang Jingyan, prop Li Bin, special effects Wang Tian, ​​because he is in the Northeast Over here, of course it’s coming.

The entire filming team has nothing to say. As for the actors, Bai Shiqiu is almost done. Isn’t Fang Binbin here? Moreover, he promised Tangtang before.

But the result...

"Brother Bai! If you make barbecue, it must be delicious, but I'm worried that I will grow beans."

Tangtang must have been summoned by Lao Bai, but Mimi also followed.

"This..." Bai Shiqiu really didn't expect that nothing happened to Mimi at first. He had arranged this drama for Tangtang, but he didn't expect Mimi.

"Brother Bai, you must have more tricks and better nutrition." Mimi really doesn't regard herself as an outsider.

Tangtang was angry, but the most angry person was not only Mimi, who had no eyesight, but also Fang Binbin.

Why is this naughty fox here?
I couldn't help but be angry with my senior brother Bai for provoking women everywhere, which made her so angry.

Originally, I had made up my mind not to say anything, and just confronted my senior brother coldly, but Mimi, the head-changing monster, went too far, pestering my senior brother to ask for this or that, so this time I simply stopped saying that I wanted the role. I want my senior brother to show off his skills and cook a dish.

"Senior brother, can you cook?" Tangtang said something without paying attention.

"This..." Bai Shiqiu felt that the current scene was a bit like a Shura field.

Fang Binbin was not idle at this time, and said with a smile: "Our Lao Bai is so good at eating, so his craftsmanship must be good, otherwise why would he think of filming this movie?"

Our old man?

Tangtang and Mimi instantly looked like two kittens, with their tails raised and about to attack.

Fang Binbin flipped up his hair and said calmly: "I have joined No. 4. What's wrong with our Lao Bai?"

I bother!

Tangtang and Mimi wanted to spit out the shameless person in front of them, but at this time, someone else came.

"Lao Bai, brother, I'm here."

As soon as this man came in, he looked carefree and was not polite to Lao Bai. He had a distinctive face, which was extremely long and ugly.

Wang Qianyuan, who else could it be if he wasn't him?

"Brother Wang, it's good that you're here." Bai Shiqiu finally got out of the situation.

Wang Qianyuan laughed and said, "That's right. We are filming in my hometown. How can I not come?"

He was right, this time "Night Food" was being filmed in Shencheng, and Bai Shiqiu had thought about shooting a skewer restaurant early in the morning, and Shencheng was pretty good.

The planning actually started very early. The crew found a small shop in a small street here, bought it, and decorated it according to a normal small shop.

In this way, everything is real, it is really a snack shop. Of course, according to Bai Shiqiu's request, there is a banner hanging outside with two words written on it, grilled skewers.

In fact, when it comes to nightlife in Shencheng, or barbecue restaurants like this, there are also good places, such as West Tower.

The specialty of Xita is Korean barbecue. In fact, this place used to be an area inhabited by Koreans. There used to be a famous snack called Xita Cold Noodles. I remember when Bai Shiqiu ate it with his grandfather when he was a child. Grandpa took him with him on a donkey riding backwards. At that time, he had to queue up to eat this bowl of cold noodles, but when he ate it... it was just average.

It can be regarded as a painful childhood memory. After waiting for so long, he felt very ordinary. Grandpa was very happy and said that his grandson would definitely be extraordinary when he grew up. He was so picky about his food and was not an ordinary person.

Anyway, in the eyes of grandpa, Bai Shiqiu is always very good.

Now there are not only cold noodles, but also various barbecues, and there is also a Pyongyang restaurant. This is from North Korea, but it is a different restaurant.

This small shop is closer to the West Tower. The characteristic of the location is that the street is relatively narrow, so the photos look very real.

Not to mention, after the decoration is completed and the shop is opened, it really feels like a late-night canteen, but it is completely down-to-earth.

In fact, Japan's "Late Night Diner" has a social condition, that is, during Japan's tax system reform, some consumption can be tax deductible, that is, if you go for a meal or something, you can deduct the tax by keeping the invoice, so , there was a time when restaurants like this in Japan were very prosperous, and consumption was very fierce. This is how late-night canteens existed. In itself, this is a kind of memory of the past.Everyone knows what happened later. Japan is finished. Not only is the economy stagnant, but consumption is also severely tightened, especially food consumption. It is very simple to identify the rich in Japanese restaurants. A customer, if he drinks a cup If you keep drinking wine, then this person must be a wealthy person.

Liquor in Japanese restaurants is sold by the glass. A glass starts at 30RMB, which is 500 yen. The average employee only orders one glass.

Bai Shiqiu didn't want to shoot such memories. He wanted to shoot something warm. As for the stories of the past, of course there are, but our lives are different from those in Japan. We are prosperous.

Completely copying it, I'm afraid this is the real reason why it is so popular. The situation in our country is completely opposite to that in Japan, which naturally gives people a stiff feeling.

"Old Bai, tell me, brother, what role should I play?" Wang Qianyuan had just arrived, and he was not familiar with many things, but it didn't matter, he was already an experienced actor.

By the way, Wang Qianyuan himself has some thoughts in his heart. Somehow, as long as he doesn't cooperate with Lao Bai, his reputation will be weakened. He thinks that there is no problem with his performance and he is careless about the characters. , but, it doesn’t work.

In fact, the reason is simple...too ugly.

Of course, he himself would not admit it completely, but he just felt that in terms of image, it was pretty good.

Bai Shiqiu knew it well, and when he saw this situation, plus Fang Binbin, Tangtang Niniemi, and some supporting players, such as Fatty, who had made a guest appearance in "Latent" before, this guy's surname was Liu, Fatty Liu.What's more, Wang Jingyan, the lamp master, also has an acting heart and wants to make a guest appearance. In addition, Shishi is actually with him.

This girl, Shishi, is quite interesting. She not only plays a small role, but also does some housework. This girl is quite willing to be ordinary. She seems to have a light temper.Bai Shiqiu also saw that Wang Jingyan was very interested in her.

With this situation now, we can start filming.

"Brother Wang, how about you act like a powerful person on the road?"

When Wang Qianyuan heard this, he immediately said, "How about using the former supermarket owner who was later shot as a model?"

Who is this talking about?

I heard that this man even slapped Hua Tsai and his wife in the mouth back then, but he was too arrogant and drove a supermarket, so he was killed not long after.

Later, Bai Shiqiu also heard some things. For example, some of the brothers who had followed him were scattered, but they still had to live, so they took up furs.

These things cannot be photographed, cannot be photographed... What a great subject matter, but it is a pity that it will not be reviewed.

"Give Brother Wang a makeover." Although we can't take pictures, we can create this style.

"Hey! It's really my brother!" Wang Qianyuan was happy.

Just buy it, it's easy, just buy something else.

This image came out very quickly, wearing a mink suit, a big gold chain and a small watch, Wang Qianyuan sat there.

Really down to earth.

"..." Fang Binbin, Tangtang Niannimi, looking at this appearance... wanted to laugh a little, but they also felt that it really suited the temperament of eldest brother Wang Qianyuan.

Start shooting then?
"Old Bai, how good is your craft?"

"Yes, Brother Bai, I just wanted to eat your food."

"Brother, can you cook?"

"Old Bai~"

This is great, everyone wants to try Lao Bai's skills.

"Okay! I'll show you my skills today!" Bai Shiqiu had an idea at this time. It was a very simple dish, and he had many memories of it before, so he came to try it.

Cut a piece of marinated tofu into evenly sized pieces without removing the edges. Prepare garlic chili sauce and some barbecue ingredients for skewers. Put a small frying pan on the stove, light the fire, and heat the pan with cold oil.

It looked like it was about the same. Bai Shiqiu put the tofu slices into the pot. After a while, he flipped it a little to see if it was golden brown and it was ready.

Flip over and brush with garlic chili sauce.

The sound of stabbing came out, and along with it came a scent of fragrance.

Finally, sprinkle some barbecue ingredients and a few sesame seeds, and it's ready to serve.

"Fried tofu is usually found in Korean barbecue restaurants."

When you serve it, don’t forget to explain it.

On this plate, there is a red piece, and the true color of the tofu is golden, which makes people feel like moving their index fingers.

"I'll come first!" Mimi wanted to taste it first.

Tangtang quit, "You go."

"oops!"

The two sisters are about to fight.

At this time, Wang Qianyuan, who had long chopsticks and was good at using them, grabbed a piece first and ate it.

"Oh my god, it's too ordinary." complained!
"what?"

If you don’t believe it, pick it up and give it a try. Fang Binbin naturally doesn’t want to be left behind.

"It's obviously delicious!"

"Yes! Brother Wang knows how to lie!"

"Hahaha……"

Everyone laughed.

Lao Bai calculated it, and it seemed that he had a talent for being a cook. . .

　Thank you for your support, thank you.

　　Chapter 2, so what, I’m working hard on it, I must update it today.
